Xuchang City.

In the splendid palace, Liang Luo sat on the throne of the carved dragon, with fluttering sleeves at the bottom, the bell ringing and the melodious music.

Through the swirling incense mist, I saw the Chinese and martial arts officials of Xuchang City kneeling aside.

Gu Bingzhang was the first to break the silence:

"Your Highness! Humble ......"

Before he could say anything, Liang Luo burst out of his seat, he looked around with his sharp eyes, and shouted loudly:

"Shut up! Open your mouth and close your mouth to be humble, this Xuchang City is you the main general or I am the main general! Yes? You say! ”

Gu Bingzhang raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Liang Luo, still unrelenting, and said respectfully:

"Of course, in Xuchang City, you are the king of the city! Humble ......"

"Good! Since I am the main general, do you know what is the first prohibition in the army? ”

Everyone was a little stunned, they were here to advise, how could they get to the ban in the army, would this city king make too much of a fuss?

"Then I'll tell you! I Liang established the country with military force, and Emperor Xianwu set the rules at the beginning of the founding of the country, anyone who did not obey the order of the main general was killed with a rod, and then the corpse was operated for three days to show warning! ”

The civil and military officers were startled when they heard this, and they all lowered their heads and whispered.

When the musicians and dancers heard that Liang Luo was going to kill someone, they were all frightened and stopped moving.

"Who told you to stop? Come on, pull them all out and chop them all up for me! Liang Luo was enraged, and he was a little upset at the moment.

Watching the axemen come out of the curtain, the voices of the musicians and dancers begging for mercy echoed in the hall.

"Your Highness, spare your life! Your Highness! Spare your life! ”

At this moment, Gu Bingzhang finally understood, Liang Luo was blaming him for bringing so many people to advise, how could a person with such a good face as King Ren could endure it!

Now as long as he Gu Bingzhang said a word of disobedience to the military order, let Liang Luo find an excuse, and his bones would be gone in a moment.

He was a little frightened, and could only secretly smash his fist at the ground.

"Wait!"

Everyone followed the prestige, only to see a man who looked like a scholar stood up, walked to the middle, and solemnly saluted Liang Luo.

Liang Luo saw that the other party was a scholar, and as soon as he got angry, he scolded directly:

"What? A little mongrel who doesn't have any hair, and he wants to come out and shake his lips? Come on! Drag it down and cut it down! ”

The scholar waved his hand and said:

"Slow! Listen to me, if you still want to kill me, there is a boiling outside the palace, and I will suffer from the fierce wok, don't dirty the king's hands! ”

"Tell me quickly, I want to see what golden eggs can pop out of your boy's mouth?"

The man straightened his sleeves and said:

"Xiaomin Xu Zhen, who originally studied scriptures and recited classics in Shanxi, fled after the war. Among the refugees, it is rumored that the king of Rencheng, who was stationed in Xuchang, was famous for his benevolence and righteousness, and the people under his rule lived and worked in peace and contentment, and had never been harassed by the Huns! ”

With this touting, Liang Luo's mood was much soothed, and he withdrew his sword and axe hand with a gesture, looking at the person in front of him expectantly.

Xu Zhen didn't know what he was expecting, so he continued to boast:

"Since I went to Xuchang, the people have surplus food, although there are not many soldiers in Xuchang, but the order is forbidden, the garrison is strict, I am also deeply moved by your benevolence and righteousness, the king! In the troubled times, the people are the first, and the king is the only one in the world today! ”

"Do you think you'll be able to get rid of the death penalty by praising me?" Liang Luo frowned slightly, but he didn't want to mention how proud he was in his heart!

"Your Majesty, you're wrong, I'm just telling the truth! If you can't draw a strange picture and come up with a strategy, you can't talk about the fault of the master, you can only talk about achievements, and you can't talk about your achievements. ”

Liang Luo heard the "truth" of the second son, and he looked even more proud!

Then Xu Zhen changed his words and said:

"I, Xu Zhen, am not a person who is skillful, but now that the king has accidentally made a mistake, I dare not say that I am alive than Gan, but I also want to imitate Qi Zhi's Zou Ji and fight for the reputation behind me!"

In fact, at this point, Liang Luo's anger has also disappeared by half, and he is only one step away, no, Xu Zhen sent it.

Liang Luo smiled strangely and asked:

"Then you can tell me that I have everything I have?"

"First, the king has always been benevolent and righteous, so he will pity those Hun people, this is not wrong!"

"Second, the musicians and dancers stopped without the king's order, and the king disposed of them, why should the king?"

"Third, the king has always ordered forbidden, and the king is the chief general of the Xuchang garrison, and he is not at fault for acting according to military orders!"

"Smack!" Liang Luo slapped the case hard! "Xu Qian! You're fooling me, aren't you? You said that you were the one who wanted to point out the fault to me, and now you say that there is no fault, and you want to lie and confuse the public? ”

Xu Zhen looked frightened, kowtowed heavily, and said:

"King Mingjian! Wait for the micro-ministers! The king was and is not at fault now, and if there is a fault that must be found, it is that the king may be strict in enforcing the law, which is somewhat contrary to the king's benevolence. ”

"Oh? Are you saying that my fault is not in the past or in the present, but in the future? ”

"Exactly! Have you ever thought that you have indeed dealt with everyone in accordance with the military order and the law of the country today, but what will the people outside Xuchang City think of you, the king! So many people have been killed in one day, and they will say that you are cruel and unkind, and how much it hurts your name of righteousness! ”

Liang Luo spread his body back and said disdainfully:

"Huh! Xu Zhen, then let me tell you, the world thinks that I cherish the reputation of benevolence and righteousness, but I tell you today, I really don't care about that... False name, I don't care what outsiders think of me, I only know one truth, that is, in troubled times, we should use heavy codes, national law and military law cannot be messy, and I can't care about the rest. ”

After speaking, I want to summon the knife and axe hand to chop people.

The others were also shocked by Liang Luo's move, and couldn't help but worry about Xu Qian.

Woo woo woo ~ .........

Beyond everyone's expectations, Xu Zhen actually cried in front of him.

Everyone thought he was scared to look like this.

Liang Luo was also a little surprised, he didn't want to kill Xu Zhen in his heart, because his words hit his heart too much.

Liang Luo stood up slightly and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, I won't kill you, although I'm not a virtuous king, but I will never kill innocents indiscriminately, let alone kill a minister, rest assured, no matter how much you say today, you won't die!"

Some people in the audience felt that Xu Zhen was a coward in his heart, and they all looked at him with contempt.

Who knew that Xu Zhen not only did not thank him, but climbed a few steps forward and cried: "I don't cry for myself, but for the people!" ”

Everyone is even more confused, you can't fight the people when you cry!

Liang Luo couldn't help but smile bitterly and asked, "Alas, tell me, why are you crying for the people!" ”

Xu Zhen was even more energetic, wiped his snot with tears, and said with tears in his voice:

"The king has a true heart of benevolence, so he will not protect his reputation, let alone change his life for the sake of it! I dare to ask the king to think about it, how many people are still outside Xuchang City, and now the king's benevolence and righteousness are spread all over the world, and how many people and scholars want to belong to the king! ”

"If you don't cherish your reputation, how many natural and man-made disasters will those people encounter, at this moment, I want to ask the king to think more about the people, the national law and military law are also to let the people live and work in peace and contentment!"

Liang Luo was very confused by this logic, but he couldn't find any flaws, and even felt very comfortable, under the interweaving of multiple complex emotions, he finally made up his mind to climb down the ladder built by Xu Zhi.

He walked towards Xu Zhen in three steps and two steps, personally helped him up, and said with a smile:

"Today, thanks to Xu Qian, the sky lives up to my people, I almost caused a big disaster, everyone please hurry up!"
