The news of Li Jiancheng letting the Turkic death row prisoners go back to visit their parents Jiao'er on the execution ground spread throughout Chang'an City, and the entire Chang'an City was full of discussions:

"Ugh! I heard that His Majesty has sent all the spies who fornicated with the Turks home. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"What did you put home? It's just that those unrighteous people are sent home to visit their parents and Jiao'er. And have a two-day appointment with them, so that they can go back in two days to be punished! ”

"Hey! The emperor is really a merciful lord, but ......"

"Shhhh This is Chang'an, be careful of the trouble coming out of the mouth! "On the third day, before dawn, the entire execution ground was surrounded by the people of Chang'an, who were waiting to witness the moment of miracle - those condemned prisoners were beheaded after returning from the new era. Of course, if those condemned prisoners don't come back, then Li Jiancheng will become the laughing stock of the entire Chang'an and even the entire Tang Dynasty. The day began to dawn, time passed slowly, Li Jiancheng also came to the execution ground to wait, just when everyone was anxiously waiting, the first death row prisoner appeared:

"Look! It's Dongzi for change, it's Dongzi for change! He's back. Immediately after that, a second condemned man appeared:

"It's Niu Ergou! It's Niu Ergou! Niu Ergou is back. ”

"There is only one Wu Qianqiu left, and there is only one Wu Qianqiu left! Wu Qianqiu has not yet arrived. ”

"Wu Qianqiu, Wu Qianqiu, Wu Qianqiu......" Not only did the surrounding Chang'an people shout again, but Xie Yingdeng, who was mixed in the crowd, also shouted quietly. And Xie Yingdeng's voice happened to be heard by Zhang Jiling next to him, but Zhang Jiling didn't say anything. At this time, someone not far away shouted:

"Look, look! Another man is coming. "I saw a thinly dressed and staggering person appear in the distance, and that person looked tired and staggered all the way. You can see that this person must be very tired. Immediately someone went to help him:

"It's Wu Qianqiu, it's Wu Qianqiu, Wu Qianqiu he's back." Wu Qianqiu staggered all the way to Xingtai, knelt down, and the judge stepped forward to verify Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, and Dongzi, and then reported to Li Jiancheng:

"Your Majesty, the death row prisoners Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, and Dongzi have been experienced and accurate! Please ask the emperor to order Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, and Dongzi to be punished by three people! Li Jiancheng nodded:

"Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, Dongzi Chang, have the three of you fulfilled your unfulfilled wishes?" Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, and Dongzi replied to Li Jiancheng:

"Your Majesty! The three of us have fulfilled all our wishes in the world, and now, we are only waiting for Your Majesty's order to wash away our sins in the world! After Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, and Dongzi shouted for the three of them, Li Jiancheng nodded:

"Very well, it seems that you are also dead without complaint." Li Jiancheng took out the chopping lot from the box and threw it on the ground, and after the judge saw it, he immediately shouted:

"Your Majesty has a will, execution!" When Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, and Dongzi exchanged three heads to the ground, a slight drizzle fell in the sky of Chang'an. When Li Jiancheng was about to drive back to the palace, an earth-shattering shout sounded around the court:

"This is the sins of Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, Dongzichang and other three people, long live the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live!" Soon after, Li Jiancheng released the condemned prisoner from the execution ground, and the condemned prisoner came back to be punished. All over Guanzhong and even the entire Central Plains are spreading Li Jiancheng's kindness. Afterwards, the ministers of the court asked Li Jiancheng:

"Your Majesty! The minister had a question. Isn't Your Majesty afraid that the condemned prisoners will escape? ”

"Humph! I feel his loyalty and filial piety, and lick the calf, but if Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, and Dongzi dare to bully the king, then don't blame me for killing Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, and Dongzi for three people and nine clans. ”

"Your Majesty, the minister also has a question?"

"Speak!"

"In the Spring and Autumn Period, the State of Chu has been bowing to the case, his father stole sheep, he denounced his father, and then took the initiative to ask his father to be punished, the king of Chu had mercy and pardoned his father and the crime of bowing, but I don't know why His Majesty didn't pardon Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, and Dongzi for the crimes of the three?" In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Chu State was probably the earliest pioneer of combining the rule of law and the rule of virtue. In terms of generosity, even filial piety can be exempted. There are concrete cases to prove this. It is said that there was a person named Zhibow, Lao Tzu stole a few sheep, bowed to kill his relatives, and reported the matter to the king of Chu, so the king of Chu sent someone to arrest Zhibow's father and planned to kill him according to the law. It was probably possible in ancient times to bow down and ask to be punished in place of one's father. When he was about to be killed, he said to the law enforcement officer: "My father stole someone else's sheep, and I reported it to the king. My father is going to be put to death, and I will be punished in his place, isn't this filial piety? A man like me, who is both honest and filial, will be put to death, so who in our country should not be killed?" When the king of Chu heard this, he felt that it made sense, so he pardoned Zhibow and did not kill him. At the time, this case sparked a two-party dispute between Confucius and Han Feizi, and the single page is the judgment and moral code of some officials in later generations. Li Jiancheng said with a smile:

"The case of Zhigong is different from the crimes of Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, and Dongzi for three people, the father of Zhigong is just stealing sheep, but the crimes of Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, and Dongzi for three people are different, Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, and Dongzi for three people fornicated with the Turks and smuggled materials, I let Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, Dongzi Chang and other three people go home to visit their parents and children, it is already a great love and righteousness of people, if I take advantage of this small righteousness and forget the law, and pardon Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, Dongzi Chang and other three, then it will not make more treacherous people take the opportunity to escape responsibility, Kill more innocent people! Therefore, this kind of unhealthy trend must not last! In the future, such cases must not be repeated. "All the Chinese military officials of the DPRK obeyed the order. Li Jiancheng smiled knowingly when he saw the reaction of the Chinese military officials. recalled that five days ago, Li Jiancheng found Di Renjie:

"Huaiying! Do you know how many death row inmates there are in the penal department! Di Renjie didn't know why Li Jiancheng asked how many death row prisoners there were in the Criminal Department? However, Di Renjie knew that Li Jiancheng must have some intentions when he asked how many death row prisoners there were in the Criminal Department:

"Your Majesty! Now there are dozens of death row prisoners in the Criminal Department, all of whom are extremely vicious criminals, Your Majesty ......"

"Hmmm! You quickly get the family background of these dozens of death row prisoners from the Criminal Department, I want to see it. After Li Jiancheng selected Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, Dongzichang and other three people from dozens of death row prisoners, he immediately asked Di Renjie to quickly send Qilin secret guards to take over the prison of the Criminal Department, and Li Jiancheng secretly drove to the prison of the Criminal Department, and ordered Di Renjie to bring Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, Dongzichang and other three to him:

"Ahh Your Majesty, Your Majesty spares your life! Your Majesty! Li Jiancheng looked at Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, Dongzi Chang and the other three.

"Alright, don't beg me for mercy. Niu Ergou, you had a quarrel with the villagers of the same village, and in anger, you beat the villagers of the same village with you to death, I also heard that the villagers you killed and you are still brothers who have not yet come out of the five suits, do you still want to live? Wu Qianqiu, you are the private school gentleman in the village, and you are actually the young girl in the village, and the young girl is only twelve years old, don't you know shame? It's you, Dongzi Chang, you got pregnant with Chun'er, the daughter of a big family in the village, and was discovered by a big family in the village......" Before Li Jiancheng's words were finished, Dongzi Chang was already kneeling in front of Li Jiancheng:

"Your Majesty, I beg you, let me see Chun'er! Your Majesty, I beg you! Li Jiancheng is the most sympathetic to Dongzi Chang, to tell the truth, this Dongzi Chang is also a man, like all bloody stories, Dongzi Chang's parents died when he was a child, and he worked as a long-term worker in the Jiang family, a large family in the village, and met Jiang Chun'er, the concubine of the Jiang family. Dongzi changed to secretly take Jiang Chuner's mother and son away, but was caught up by the Jiang family, after Dongzi Chang was beaten, the Jiang family forced the adulter's concubine to get Dongzi to the government, and Dongzi Chang is now thinking about his wife.

"Dongzi Chang, do you want to see your wife and children? Your wife I have rescued her, and she has given you a son, do you want to go back and see? After Dongzi heard Li Jiancheng's words, his eyes showed a glint of hope:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I beg you, I beg you to let the sinners go to them! Please, Your Majesty! Dongzi changed Li Jiancheng's clothes and begged Li Jiancheng bitterly, and Li Jiancheng asked Dongzichang:

"Dongzi Chang, are you willing to do things for me? As long as you are willing to do things for me, you can go to see your wife and young son, and I will raise them for you, and give you a title, so that your wife and young son will no longer suffer from hunger and cold. Dongzi change, I only give you one chance! You can't do it! "Dongzi changes kowtow like garlic:

"Your Majesty, the sinners willing! The sinners are willing to do things for Your Majesty, but they don't know what Your Majesty wants your ministers to do? ”

"I want you to give up your life and put on a show for me, are you willing?"

"The sinners willing, the sinners willing!" Dongzi Chang immediately promised Li Jiancheng, and Li Jiancheng took out three pills from his arms:

"Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, Dongzi Chang, if the three of you want to live, it is impossible, but I can promise you, your family, I can help you take care of it, Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, although the two of you do not have a wife and young children, but you also have an old father and mother, don't you want to meet?" After Niu Ergou and Wu Qianqiu listened to Li Jiancheng's words, they immediately agreed to Li Jiancheng and were willing to cooperate with Li Jiancheng in acting. Li Jiancheng took out three pills from his arms:

"This is a poison made by the secret of the palace, if you don't cooperate, within three days, your whole body will festered and die, and the next day, you will feel pain in your abdomen, that is when the poison attacks, you should eat it quickly!" Dongzi was the first to eat Li Jiancheng's poison, and then, Niu Ergou and Wu Qianqiu also ate Li Jiancheng's poison. In order to prevent changes, Li Jiancheng also ordered Di Renjie to secretly arrange for the Qilin secret guard to prepare, and when the time came, he secretly followed Niu Ergou, Wu Qianqiu, Dongzi Chang and other three.
