Nian Qianyao came to the high platform in the middle of the Dharma field and sat in the center. He looked at the sun in the sky, and waited for noon, and then began to cut it.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd, and everyone moved closer to both sides. A corridor appeared in the crowd. At one end of the Yongdao, Liu Jingxuan was wearing court clothes, holding the top of the lapis lazuli and walking along the Yongdao to the front of the Dharma field.

The officers and soldiers recognized Liu Jingxuan, and they all dodged to both sides together. Liu Jingxuan strode in front of Nian Qianyao, standing majestically, his face sinking like water.

When Nian Qianyao saw it, he hurriedly turned the public case, came to Liu Jingxuan, bowed and said, "Lord Liu, you are dressed like this today, I don't know what you want?"

Liu Jingxuan said coldly: "Lord Nian, if you don't ask for the lives of the people, but you kill innocents indiscriminately here, aren't you afraid that thousands of people will be pointed at and scolded by thousands of people?"

Nian Qianyao smiled a little embarrassedly: "Where did Lord Liu come from?" These are all prisoners of the imperial court, and I am just ordered by the emperor to be beheaded here. ”

Liu Jingxuan pointed to the kneeling crowd: "Lord Nian, please look." There were no less than 200 children under the age of 15 alone. How could they be a rebellion against the imperial court?"

Nian Qianyao smiled indifferently: "These children may not be the rebellion of the imperial court, but their parents are difficult to say. ”

Liu Jingxuan's chest was full of anger, and he said in a deep voice: "These people are just working under Chu Jinglian just to eat a full meal and find an errand. This time, because he has some things to do with Chu Jinglian, he will be beheaded all over the house, how can you bear it?"

Nian Qianyao shook his head: "Lord Liu, I am also acting according to the will of the Holy Lord, and I have no choice but to do it. Why should you be aggressive? Please leave quickly, don't delay the time to ask for the beheading. ”

Liu Jingxuan took a step forward, straightened his chest, and his eyes flashed with a blazing cold light: "When Jingxuan comes today, I can't watch these innocent people die in Yangzhou City." ”

Nian Qianyao's eyebrows were upside down, and he shouted loudly: "Liu Jingxuan, do you want to rebel and fail! If you stir up the law field again, don't blame Nian for being unreasonable." ”

Liu Jingxuan raised his head, his face was resolute, and he was not angry: "What can you do to me?"

Nian Qianyao pointed at Liu Jingxuan, trembling with anger: "You, you, you, come here, take Liu Jingxuan down for me!"

The surrounding officers and soldiers felt Liu Jingxuan's kindness, especially when it came to repelling the flood. Liu Jingxuan's virtuous name can be said to be well-known and deep-rooted in Yangzhou. And Nian Qianyao is just an official who has just arrived in Yangzhou City, and no one knows his name. So no one stepped forward to arrest Liu Jingxuan.

Nian Qianyao shouted for a long time, and found that none of the officers and soldiers responded, and immediately felt bad. Nian Qianyao was not an ordinary vulgar person, and he immediately felt the seriousness of the situation.

He turned around and rode a fast horse and went straight to the prefect's yamen.

At this time, Kangxi was waiting for news from Nian Qianyao in the prefect's yamen. If he killed these people, even if he couldn't catch Chu Jinglian, Zhu Cihuan and other first-class evildoers at the moment, Kangxi's heart would feel a lot more soothed.

Nian Qianyao ran into the back hall in a panic, and came directly to Kangxi's front and bowed down and knelt down: "Your Majesty, it's not a good thing!"

Kangxi was very unhappy when he saw Nian Qianyao coming in such a panic: "Nian Qianyao, as a minister of the imperial court, why are you so flustered?

Nian Qianyao rushed up and kowtowed: "Your Majesty." That Liu Jingxuan was untidy and untidy, and his mouth was not inferior, trying to obstruct Weichen from cutting and beheading those anti-thieves, and Ming Zhengzheng was punished. Wechen wanted to take Liu Jingxuan for questioning, but unexpectedly, none of the officers and soldiers obeyed Wechen's orders. If Liu Jingxuan instigates the mob to rebel, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Kangxi was also shocked when he heard this, he didn't believe that Liu Jingxuan would do such a thing. But Nian Qianyao would never dare to lie in front of him, so how serious this matter is, Kangxi knows it.

Kangxi hesitated for a moment and said loudly: "Swing!"

Liang Jiugong on the side listened to it, and hurriedly whispered: "Your Majesty, there are nearly 1,000 prisoners in the law field alone, and looking at the lively people, the old slave doesn't need to look at it, he knows that there are not 10,000, but 8,000." Your Majesty is the Ninety-Five, and if you go rashly, I am afraid that it will be dangerous. ”

Kangxi shook his head and said in a cold voice: "I am the son of heaven in the Qing Dynasty, are you still afraid that these thieves will not succeed?"

Kangxi ordered Murong Jielie to protect him, and took the crown prince, the governor Ahsan, and others to the court. Nangong Huangyun saw that Kangxi had left the prefect's yamen, and followed the group to the court.

Kangxi came to the outside of the court, and the gongs that opened the way and the soldiers who guarded the road drove the people away. After a long while, Kangxi walked into the court.

Before Kangxi could speak, he heard the governor Ah Shan reprimand sharply: "Liu Jingxuan, are you going to rebel or not? Look at you, you are not well-dressed, and you dare to obstruct the execution in broad daylight." Someone, take this person down for me!"

Ah Shan's voice had been silent for a long time, but no one stepped forward. Most of the guards in front of Kangxi were the defenders of Yangzhou, and most of the guards he originally led were killed in the Battle of Baihuayuan.

Kangxi frowned, glared at Ah Shan fiercely, and then slowly walked to the back of the public case in the middle of the law field, and sat on the Taishi chair with the support of Liang Jiugong. He glanced at Liu Jingxuan and said coldly: "Liu Jingxuan, you are here to dismantle my platform today, can't you slap my face?"

Liu Jingxuan hurriedly knelt down, put the crown by his side, kowtowed and said, "The criminal minister came today to ask His Majesty to be gracious and forgive these innocent people. ”

Kangxi raised his eyebrows, and slapped his right hand heavily on the public case: "Innocent people! Liu Jingxuan, you don't know that when I came to Yangzhou City, hundreds of thieves besieged the Hundred Gardens. I almost died at the hands of the thief. If I don't kill all these rebellions of the court, I can't be at ease. You are here today, disheveled, obstructing executions, and flouting the law of the land. According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, I should correct you on the spot. But I remember that you have saved the driver, so I have endured you again and again. If you are reasonable, quickly retreat. ”

Liu Jingxuan kowtowed heavily and said, "Your Majesty Mingjian." The criminal has found out that the person besieging Baihuayuan that day was the fake Zhu third prince Zhu Cihuan and others. The bombardment of Baihuayuan and the west gate of Yangzhou was done by Chu Jinglian and others. Chu Jinglian and his subordinates disappeared far away, which was the fault of the criminals. Your Majesty has now razed the Chu family to the nine clans, and the punishment cannot be said to be severe. If you look at the people in this stage, they are all innocent people in Yangzhou, they are neither Chu Jinglian's relatives and friends, nor are they murderers who participated in the rebellion. They are just some civilians who work hard all day long in order to fill their bellies. Your Majesty, look at those people again!"
