Within three days, the government posted a notice for the people to pray for rain under Zhang Guangping. At the same time, a horrific thing happened along with it. Zhao Han, who heard the news of coming back, naturally rushed back to the mansion as soon as possible, and wanted to tell Li Wenxuan about it. Even a person like him, who has been at the bottom of society for a long time, has already shown a rare fear of such a thing in his already numb nerves.

Zhao Han, who saw his master in the study, was busy and said: "Zhang Guangping wants to use a living person to sacrifice and pray for rain, and the time is set by him as the ninth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar." Nine virgins and nine virgins were the objects of sacrifice he needed. Now those families with children inside and outside the city are already in danger, for fear that their children will become sacrifices. ”

Li Wenxuan, who heard this, was really shocked. Although there was a time when our ancestors used living people as sacrifices, that was a long time ago. At present, it is a feudal society, not a slave society, how can living people be used for sacrifice at will? Even in the feudal period, the ancestors performed this ritual of living sacrifice in the early stages of this stage.

During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, it was already the middle and late Ming Dynasty, and it was also a period when feudal society was in decline and capitalism began to rise. At a fork in the road when human civilization is about to enter a new era, such a thing could not be seen in the place where Li Wenxuan was, which had to make him feel angry.

Zhao Han, who didn't know why, was full of fear and curiosity in his heart, so he cautiously asked: "Master, if it were for you to pray for rain, would you also sacrifice boys and girls to the heavens?" ”

"Fart." Thinking of Li Wenxuan, who didn't think about it, he blurted out with an angry face: "If it were Lao Tzu to pray for rain, I would never be able to do such a hurtful thing." If I had known that Zhang Guangping's grandson's heart and liver were so black, I should have adopted Zhu Biao's suggestion and directly chopped up this turtle king. ”

Li Wenxuan, who was furious, grabbed the tea cup on the table casually and threw it to the ground with all his might. There was a crisp sound, and the blue and white porcelain tea cup was smashed by him, and the tea and tea leaves were scattered irregularly along with the broken porcelain pieces. He didn't stop there, he suddenly stood up, picked up the chair with his backhand and slammed it to the ground.

It was the first time I saw Zhao Han, who had such an atmosphere as his master, and he was really frightened by the momentum he exuded in an instant. He couldn't help but tremble a little all over his body, swallowed his saliva and said, "Master, please calm your anger." ”

The palm of his right hand was Li Wenxuan, who wiped his sideburns on the slur, and suddenly roared at him: "**Damn, how can I calm my anger?" Zhang Guangping, a turtle bastard, actually did such things that are not human. Call Zhu Biao for me, ask him to take the little guy and the guy in the house, and go with me to slaughter the grandson. ”

Zhao Han, who didn't dare to go against his will, didn't dare to persuade him, so he had to turn around and retreat, wanting to do what he wanted. As soon as he walked to the door of the study, he saw Lin Ruoxi. He saluted her, lowered his head and quickened his pace, and hurried away.

Lin Ruoxi, who walked in without hesitation, saw that the angry man was walking back and forth, and asked bluntly: "What makes you so angry?" ”

Li Wenxuan, who stopped, raised his eyes to see that she was coming, so he told her what he had just passed was 1510. After listening to his story, Lin Ruoxi frowned tightly and said, "Zhang Guangping should indeed be killed." However, it would not be wise for you to personally bring the people in the palace to deal with him directly. Not to mention the consequences of failure. Even if you can slash him, it won't be easy to get out. If you are for the sake of an unworthy dog, your life and future are indeed not worth it. ”

"According to your wishes, I should choose to sit on the sidelines and watch him and his henchmen poison eighteen children?" Li Wenxuan, who was full of displeasure, did not listen to her persuasion at all.

Lin Ruoxi, who walked over to him, said calmly: "The concubine thinks you should calm down first." In my opinion, there must be something strange in this one thing. It's hard to imagine that Zhang Guangping is playing a trick gun. Most of the time he wanted to use this excuse to make money. Those who have children have no desire to sacrifice their children to their children, so they have to spend money on them to buy peace. ”

Li Wenxuan, who heard her say this, habitually touched his chin with his right hand, and gradually began to calm down and said, "You are not unreasonable. A person like Zhang Guangping, who is greedy for money, naturally wants to find a good way to collect money. His trick is not only extremely damaging, but also can force people with children to smash pots and sell iron, and those who can't bargain have to buy their own flesh and blood to survive. ”

Seeing that he could start thinking rationally, Lin Ruoxi's hanging heart slowly relaxed: "It cannot be ruled out that the eighteen children who will be selected as sacrifices will be safe." If it is those who can't afford the money, they have to watch them take their children away. Even if there are children who are captured by them, they should not be worried about their lives for a while, after all, they will definitely not be sacrificed until he opens the altar to pray for rain. Xianggong, if you want to rescue the children, you have to make good use of this period of time to lobby the people in the government. Without their support, it would be easy to deal with Zhang Guangping. ”

Li Wenxuan, who nodded frequently, felt that what she said was very reasonable, and turned his anger into joy and said: "Fortunately, you are here, otherwise you will have to make a big mistake this time for your husband." It seems that impulse is the devil, and there is nothing wrong with that. It's really bad for you to see me like that. ”

Xianggong had such a reaction, which made the concubine very admired and happy. If you still act calm because of this, you will be too cold-blooded. Lin Ruoxi, who didn't please him, completely told the truth in his heart.

Li Wenxuan, who calmed down, took the initiative to take her right hand and shook it well to show his gratitude to her. He felt that he had made a very wise choice by compromising in the first place. Li Wenxuan, who did not insist on going his own way, finally listened to Lin Ruoxi's persuasion to himself.

At this moment, Zhu Biao, who was holding a pig-killing knife in his right hand, strode in, and said with an excited face: "Are we really going to slaughter Zhang Guangping?" ”
