Emperor Shenwu said in a deep voice: "The peasants are guilty of besieging the prince of the empire, which is a capital crime in itself. What do I have to ask?"

Ling Ye said coldly: "Then my attack on the Imperial Prince is already a capital crime, what are you still asking me to do?"

Emperor Shenwu had a dark face and slapped the armrest of the seat heavily: "Ling Ye!

Ling Ye said: "When it comes to this, what else can I think about?"

He deliberately provoked Emperor Shenwu, not blindly reckless, but to see the reaction of Lu Tianming and others. According to Emperor Shenwu, it was already a capital crime to attack the imperial prince himself, and Ling Ye had completely lost the power to resist at that time and fell into the hands of the other party, but he could still live until now.

If you think about it a little, you can see that the person who set the trap doesn't want him to die yet. And on the other hand, it can be said that people who want to keep the life of Midnight are suspected of setting traps.

Could that be who is going to save Midnight's life?

Of course, this is also risking your life. In case the Divine Martial Emperor was furious, he immediately asked Ling Ye to be dragged out and cut down, then everything was over.

Based on his feelings, Ling Ye guessed that Emperor Shenwu didn't want him to die yet. Otherwise, is such a trivial matter worthy of his personal interrogation?

Emperor Shenwu's face was full of anger, and he slapped the handrail again: "Evil beast! Someone! Drag him out and cut him down!"

Ling Ye sneered, but did not speak. The soldiers on the side said loudly, and they were about to come up and drag Ling Ye away. Akano watched with a gloating look on his face, and at a glance he knew that although this kind of person was handsome, his realm was too shallow.

At this time, who will come out to save Ling Ye?

Lu Tianming's voice sounded kindly: "Your Majesty is angry, angry! Ling Ye, this kid, can't be cut for the time being!"

Could it be Lu Tianming?

Ling Ye stared at him coldly, and put a big question mark in his heart.

Emperor Shenwu also stared at Lu Tianming, and said with a gloomy face: "Dingguo Gong, why do you say he can't cut it?"

Lu Tianming stroked his white beard and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the old minister said before that everyone has a time when they are young and frivolous. Lao Chen believes that the fact of Ling Ye is impulsive, not intentionally evil, and can be enlightened. ”

Emperor Shenwu snorted: "After killing so many officers and soldiers of the empire, and his hands are already stained with blood, can he still enlighten?"

Lu Tianming said: "Your Majesty, listen to the old minister." When the old minister heard that the peasants besieging Prince Gong were forced to be helpless because they could not afford the temporary levy of salaries and military service, Prince Gong did not listen to the peasants at all and slaughtered the peasants first, so Ling Ye, who was watching from the sidelines, attacked Prince Gong out of righteous indignation. Prince Gong, is that what happened?"

Prince Gong said angrily: "Those are peasants? They are clearly bandits and robbers, and they want to take advantage of the scarcity of guards around me to attack!"

Lu Tianming said: "Those can be talked about later." Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that Ling Ye will attack Prince Gong because of this incident, which shows that he has a benevolent heart that loves the people. Those who have such a heart will definitely stand up to defend their homeland when the imperial army and people are seriously threatened, and they will be brave and fearless in battle. Your Majesty, this is a treasure-like talent!" 135 Chinese

Emperor Shenwu snorted heavily: "Those are useless! Attack the prince, kill the imperial officers and soldiers, turn a deaf ear to my questioning, and ignore every question. All this is enough to show that he is lawless, unscrupulous, and lawless! I don't need such a person to protect my family and defend the country, I have to cut him!"

Lu Tianming smiled and said, "Your Majesty, rest your anger, stop your anger." Right now, the empire is facing a major threat from the 200,000 troops of the Flying Fox Clan, and it is the time to employ people. Most of the officers and soldiers in the army are afraid of the Flying Fox Clan's iron cavalry like tigers, and their morale and courage need to be stimulated and stimulated. Lao Chen dared to say that Ling Ye would never be afraid of the Flying Fox Clan, and he was just able to take on this responsibility!"

Ling Ye was listening, and interjected coldly: "I think that this blonde-haired Chiye is definitely more competent than me, and he will definitely lead the soldiers to kill the iron cavalry of the Flying Fox Clan." ”

Everyone looked at Akano. Akano smiled and said, "Of course, you think it's all you? I will definitely be able to do it!"

Emperor Shenwu said: "Since this is the case, then how about transferring you to the Wolf Guard Army as a commander today, and then take a team of cavalry to attack the Flying Fox Iron Cavalry head-on?"

Akano's face turned red all of a sudden, and he said embarrassedly, "Your Majesty, this ...... This cavalryman is not what Weichen is good at!" He is not stupid, he can tell the difference between driving the wind falcon and wantonly shooting the enemy on the ground and slashing others on the ground as a cavalryman.

Emperor Shenwu snorted. Lu Tianming smiled again and said: "So, Your Majesty understands, Ling Ye is a talent who can take on heavy responsibilities, and if he cuts it, there will be no more! The officers and soldiers he killed are just mediocre people, and killing them is just like killing a few chickens and ducks, but, Your Majesty, leave Ling Ye, what you can get is a fierce tiger!"

Emperor Shenwu snorted again and didn't speak for a while.

Marshal Wu Peng on the side bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that what Dingguo Gong said is very reasonable. It's much better to keep it for the night than to cut him. ”

Ling Ye glanced at him, and the latter also looked at him, with a hint of reassurance in his eyes.

Did Marshal Wu Peng go along with it, or did he really want to keep him? Why did he echo Lu Tianming's statement?

On the high platform, Emperor Shenwu closed his eyes and pondered for a while, and said slowly: "It's true that I didn't say it here, but Ling Ye is so lawless, how can he discipline him?"

Lu Tianming smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry." If Your Majesty spares Ling Ye, it is a grace of extrajudicial grace, and Ling Ye cannot be untouched in his heart. The old minister also had the courage to plead with His Majesty, so he handed him over to the old minister and took him back to the palace, and the old minister spoke with him every day, enlightened him, and promised to let him serve His Majesty and the empire wholeheartedly. ”

Prince Gong immediately objected: "Fart! If you take this kid back to your mansion, you will be sure that he will kill you all over the house! Don't you know how dangerous this kid is?"

Lu Tianming smiled and said, "No, absolutely not!"

Prince Gong said: "Definitely!"

Akano also joined the battle group and echoed Prince Gong: "Definitely! Lord Shousuke, this kind of risk cannot be taken!"

The three of them were arguing there, and Emperor Shenwu was upset when he heard it, and waved his hand: "Okay, don't quarrel! Marshal Wu Peng, what do you think?"

Wu Peng smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that Ling Yerao can be spared, but it is not okay to be brought back by Dingguo Gong to enlighten it." First, it is not lawful, and second, it is indeed too risky. ”

"And what is your opinion?"

Marshal Wu Peng smiled and said, "Wei Chen thinks that Ling Ye should be temporarily imprisoned in the edict to kill the evil qi in his body and heart. If Dingguo Gong is willing to enlighten him, he can also enlighten him when he goes to the edict!"
