Chapter 315: Tempting People's Hearts!
No matter what Li Dongqing said, he was also a person from Western Xia, when he saw the Western Xia emperor and a group of ministers who were tied up.
His heart was a little unbearable, just when he didn't know how to face these former relatives and friends. Wu Ming's words reached his ears.
This national teacher of the Great Song Dynasty actually allowed himself to choose their wives and concubines and children to be his wife in front of these relatives and friends.
This is not a way to live for yourself, this is BI that you have to reverse if you don't go back. After many years of founding the Western Xia, it had already abandoned the earliest barbaric customs.
In the past, the bad custom of the eldest brother dying and the second brother marrying the eldest brother's daughter-in-law has long been abolished, and the current practice of the Han people prevails in the Western Xia Kingdom.
That is a friend's wife, don't be deceived. There are two major hatreds in life, the hatred of killing one's father and the hatred of taking one's wife. And now Wu Ming is thinking that he has done such an angry thing.
Then he can only be tied to Wu Ming's chariot in the future, of course, Li Dongqing knows that he can also choose to refuse Wu Ming's order.
But Li Dongqing clearly knew that if he refused Wu Ming's order, then he would also become a member of the crowd tied up on the ground.
On one side is the glory and wealth of the future, and on the other side is the prisoner of the stairs in front of him. Li Dongqing believes that as long as you are not a fool, you will know how to choose.
Li Dongqing, who was ruthless, chose three women with outstanding appearances. He tried to avoid picking the Empress of Western Xia.
No matter what, he is still a native of Western Xia, and he wants to leave a little affection for the former Western Xia Emperor Li Yuanhao.
Li Dongqing knew that according to the practice of the Great Song Dynasty, Wu Ming would not kill Li Yuanhao, and he would only escort Li Yuanhao and his immediate family to the capital of the Great Song Dynasty.
Then dedicate them to the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty. This practice was called the sacrifice of prisoners in the Great Song Dynasty. Those Han people like to do these meaningless things when they have nothing to do.
In the eyes of those Han people, the ceremony of sacrificing prisoners is of great significance: the sacrifice of prisoners is a sacrificial ceremony, which means that the emperor presents his military exploits to his ancestors and glorifies his ancestors.
If there are members of the royal family in the captives sacrificed after the destruction of the country, because they Han people want to show their benevolence and treat the royal family well,
So it won't be killed. Prisoner sacrifices were usually carried out after a great victory to show the prestige of the country. Now the Western Xia Kingdom has been beaten like this by Wu Ming.
Although the country has not yet been destroyed, it is almost the same as destroying the country.
Just as Li Dongqing was thinking, Wu Ming's words drifted into Li Dongqing's ears, and Wu Ming's evil words made Li Dongqing almost kneel.
He didn't expect this Wu Ming to treat him so harshly, he had obviously expressed his allegiance to him, but he didn't leave himself a little way back at all.
I only heard Wu Ming say: "Tut-tut, it's a pity, I originally wanted you to save a few more people, but you didn't understand my intentions."
Now that you have chosen your own wives and concubines, then you can kill the remaining women with your own hands in front of me and these royal families.
Let me see if you are really willing to submit to me. ”
After listening to Wu Ming's words, Li Dongqing immediately became calm, he knelt down directly and said to Wu Ming: "National teacher, I am truly attached to you."
I also begged the national teacher to take back his life, so many women here have let me kill, I really can't do it, there are still many women here who are related to me.
Please spare me, I won't do this emperor of Western Xia, I just want to use my position as emperor in exchange for the lives of these innocent women.
Please also ask for the permission of the national teacher. Haven't you always been soft-hearted, and our people of Xixia were born and raised by their parents like your people of the Great Song Dynasty. ”
After listening to Li Dongqing's plea for mercy, Wu Ming nodded secretly in his heart: Yes, it seems that he didn't choose the wrong person, this Li Dongqing is still a little human.
Your own temptation has succeeded, if you Li Dongqing really dare to raise a knife to kill these women who have no power to resist, then today next year will be your jealousy.
Although Wu Ming needed a person with the blood of the Western Xia royal family as a puppet, Wu Ming did not need a person who was inhuman.
For the puppet he wants to support in the future, Wu Ming naturally wants to test and beat. Although in my heart, I have recognized Li Dongqing's performance.
But Wu Ming's temptation was not over, he reprimanded Li Dongqing angrily with a straight face: "Nonsense, how can this matter of the Western Xia Emperor be a joke."
You can do it if you want to, and if you don't want to do it, you don't do it, what do you think of me? At the beginning, it was you who begged my messenger to say that you wanted to be the emperor of Western Xia.
Now that I have destroyed Western Xia, and you tell me that you will not do it, are you looking at me in a panic, and you are not able to entertain me.
Now I will give you two choices, first, you kill these women with your own hands, and I will also promote you as the emperor of the Western Xia Kingdom.
Second, if you want to save these women, you can do it, but one life for another, I am a generous person, and I will not worry about you.
You can exchange your life for the lives of all the women here, how about it, you have earned it, there are hundreds of women here.
Think for yourself. I hope you make a wise choice. ”
After finishing speaking, Wu Ming directly took the ring knife he had prepared from Lu Zhishen's hand and threw it at Li Dongqing's feet.
Li Dongqing picked up the ring knife on the ground with a dull face, looked at the women who were huddled together and trembled, and then looked at the many Western Xia royal families who were tied together.
He walked in front of Li Yuanhao with the ring knife, looked at Li Yuanhao and laughed wildly: "Hahaha, you are happy now, Your Majesty!"
You are a sinner, I am also a sinner, you and I are both sinners of Western Xia, you shouldn't know that there was a figure like the God of Martial Arts and Wealth in the Great Song Dynasty and greedily send troops to attack the Song Dynasty.
And I shouldn't be greedy for profit, and want to be the king of Western Xia, so as to let all the 300,000 troops of our country be pitted by the God of Martial Wealth.
They are now alive and dead. It's okay now, the Xixia Kingdom has let the two of us play with it, and the country will be destroyed.
Your Majesty, play big, I can't take it, at least I can choose my own life and death now, and what about you, Your Majesty, you can't even choose your own life and death.
Although I am guilty, I can still do one thing before I die, a meaningful thing, and I can use one of my cheap lives.
In exchange for the lives of more than 100 innocent women in our Western Xia Kingdom, and you, you can only be kept as pets in the capital of the Song Dynasty for the rest of your life.
Your Majesty, I will go first, and when I get to the following, I will tell the ancestors and ancestors everything you have done, so that they can see what you have done. ”
After finishing speaking, Li Dongqing directly lifted the knife and wiped it towards his neck. Li Dongqing's movements saw Wu Ming's brows furrowed.
The heart said: Why do these guys like to wipe their necks so much, won't you cut your wrists or stab your stomach?
