Chapter 667: The Great King Speaks Carefully
The sky was cloudy and dark, and people were breathless.
"Pei servant, the time has come."
Hearing this, a trace of joy flashed in Pei Lian's eyes, who was the prison officer, picked up the token, and couldn't wait to announce: "Execution." ”
"Don't ......"
"Father's ......"
"Aaron ......"
The people of the Liu Mansion struggled, but they still couldn't change the fate of being pulled down.
The eldest grandson, Wuji, looked at the street next to him, looking forward to the scene four years ago.
Maybe this time, there are also people like Wang Yu, who find a way to disrupt the execution and save Liu Wenjing.
However, he was soon disappointed, and there was no sign of commotion in that street except for the dense crowd of people.
"Didi Da Da ......"
At this time, raindrops the size of beans fell from the sky, crackling and hitting the roofs, sheds, and people...... Like a hammer striking, my heart shattered in an instant.
Liu Wenjing looked in the direction of Bingzhou, and silently thought in her heart: King, the minister can no longer assist you, take care.
The next moment, through the rain curtain, he glanced at the officials sitting on the high platform with a sharp gaze, and said loudly: "The high bird is exhausted, the good bow is hidden, this is my destiny, and it is also your fate." ”
With that, he closed his eyes.
Pei Lin and the others who were sitting on the high platform were shocked by this sentence, as if it was a curse, and it was deeply engraved into their hearts from then on.
Not only them, but even the officials, large and small, around the execution ground, were deeply touched.
At this moment, the executioner raised his broadsword high and slashed it down with great force.
Blood spurted out, the head rolled on the ground, and the eyes that had been closed were now open, staring deadly ahead.
"It's a blind ......"
I don't know who shouted, and everyone took advantage of this to discuss: "Could it be that Liu Shangshu was really wronged?" ”
"Four years ago, Liu Shangshu was wronged once, isn't this time the same as four years ago, or wronged? It's just that it didn't work out four years ago, and this time it did. ”
"Impossible, this case has been closed, the evidence is conclusive, Liu Wenjing is innocent."
"If it's really innocent, then how can you die without seeing it? It is clear that there is a grievance. ”
......
The people did not leave, feeling the coolness brought by the rain, while talking about Liu Wenjing, who had been beheaded.
It wasn't until the people of the Liu Mansion moved Liu Wenjing's body and the people from the official government also left that they gradually dispersed.
The eldest grandson Wuji stood in the rain, and a strong sadness suddenly surged in his heart, for Liu Wenjing, for Li Shimin, and for himself.
From this moment on, Li Shimin's road will become more difficult.
"Ah Lang, the rain is getting heavier, let's go back." Ling Qi persuaded.
The eldest grandson Wuji didn't say a word, and silently walked in the direction of the Qin Palace.
The news of Liu Wenjing's beheading soon spread to the prefectures and the palace.
After hearing this, Xiao Yu and the others, who braved the rain to advise, sat down on the ground and couldn't shout a word anymore.
At this time, Yue Yu came over and said to everyone: "Your Majesty is afraid that you will be drenched in rain and cold, so I have ordered someone to prepare hot water and clean clothes, and invited the imperial doctor to show you."
"Please come with me."
Everyone looked at each other, but helplessly helped each other to get up and follow Yue Yu to the side hall.
In the face of Liu Wenjing's death, several families were happy and some were sad, and from this moment on, the dark tide in Chang'an City surged up from the bottom of the sea, setting off a monstrous wave.
After the eldest grandson Wuji arrived at the Qin Palace, he told the eldest grandson about the situation on the execution ground.
After listening to this, the eldest grandson couldn't help but feel sad, Zhongliang was killed, how could the country prosper?
After being silent for a while, the eldest grandson instructed Sang Zhong: "Go and prepare, and I will personally send Liu Gong tomorrow." ”
Li Yuan allowed the people of the Liu Mansion to collect Liu Wenjing's body, but ordered them to leave Chang'an tomorrow.
Hearing the words of the eldest grandson, the eldest grandson Wuji spoke out to stop him: "Sister can't, now that Liu Wenjing has been beheaded, that is, his crime of rebellion has been confirmed."
"If you go to see him off tomorrow, you will definitely arouse the suspicion of Your Majesty. If you are not at ease, I will send someone to wait outside the city and secretly give them a sum of money, so that they will have no worries about food and clothing in the future. ”
The eldest grandson was shocked: "How can my brother say such a thing? It's so heartless.
"Even if I don't mention Liu Gong's help to the king in the court, just about his personal relationship with the king, I must go there in person.
"The king regards Liu Gong as a confidant, Liu Gong died unjustly, if he is in Chang'an, he will definitely go to see Liu Gong off in person.
"No matter what Your Majesty thinks, I must personally deliver this affection for the king."
The eldest grandson, Wuji, was silent.
It would be better for her to go, at least she could use this to tell the officials who followed King Qin that no matter what, King Qin would not abandon them.
......
On the day Liu Wenjing was beheaded, Li Shimin finally received a letter from his eldest grandson Wuji.
He responded quickly, wrote a sincere note to Li Yuan, and wrote a letter to the eldest grandson Wuji and Wang Yu respectively, ordering Du Ruhui and Zhang Liang to rush back to Chang'an with these letters.
However, a few days later, Du Ruhui and Zhang Liang returned to the barracks, and Zuo Yi came back at the same time.
Zuo Yi knelt on the ground and told Li Shimin in detail about Liu Wenjing's rebellion.
"Bang!"
Li Shimin punched the case, his eyes were full of anger: "How can this be reasonable, this is clearly a frame, how can my father believe it?" ”
"Nope." Li Shimin hammered another punch: "Father is unloading the mill and killing the donkey, today is Liu Wenjing, tomorrow it may be my ......"
When Du Ruhui heard this, he was shocked, and hurriedly reminded Li Shimin: "The king is cautious, the wall has ears." ”
Zhang Liang and Zuo Yi immediately lowered their heads and pretended not to hear anything.
Hearing Du Ruhui's reminder, Li Shimin gradually calmed down, the matter has come to this point, no matter how angry he is, it will not help, it is better to find a way to remedy it.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin sent them down and sat down in front of the desk to write a letter.
Liu Wenjing is dead, and he must win over others to expand the strength of the Qin Palace.
Father sent Qian Jiulong to look at Wang Yu, which shows that Wang Yu's weight in his father's heart is not ordinary, at least her words have a great impact on his father.
Fortunately, the eldest grandson and Wang Yu have a deep relationship, and Wang Yu has always been on his side, otherwise his loss will be even greater......
At this time, Cheng Zhijie said outside the tent: "King, there is an urgent military situation. ”
When Li Shimin heard this, he hurriedly put down his pen and said, "Come in." ”
Cheng Zhijie walked in and presented a military report: "King, last night Jieli Khan and Yuan Junzhang attacked Mayi, Gao Manzheng and his men were all killed, and Mayi was captured by Jieli Khan. ”
After reading the military report, Li Shimin immediately ordered: "Pass the order, the whole army will be marched, go to Mayi, and recover the lost territory." ”
Since his father weakened his power in the court, he strengthened his army.
In this era, whoever has the power of the army has the world......
Li Shimin sent someone to send the letter back to Chang'an, and then led his troops to Mayi.
In the following days, Li Shimin abandoned his usual tactics and concentrated his forces to launch a fierce attack on Mayi.
Jieli Khan was full of confidence at the beginning, and after ten days of fighting, he found that Li Shimin's soldiers had only sacrificed hundreds, while the Turkic cavalry had lost thousands, and he immediately became jealous of Li Shimin......
