The first emperor of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 152
Lu Qinghong felt that she had restrained Li Chengqian, and a smile appeared on her face.Then he said to Li Chengqian: "Then please ask His Royal Highness to send someone to follow me."

Li Chengqian nodded, and asked Xue Rengui to lead two hundred sage king guards to follow Lu Qinghong to fetch food.But Li Chengqian sat in the porridge shed and supervised the relief of the victims.

Because of what happened yesterday, the porridge in the porridge shed today is no longer water without rice.It is the kind that can stand the chopsticks in the middle.

At the same time, Li Chengqian also ordered Jiang Chengzu to leave two wooden stakes in the open space not far from the porridge shed.And nailed two iron rings to the stake.

Li Wenzhi couldn't help but feel puzzled, so he asked Li Chengqian: "His Royal Highness, I wonder what is the use of you sending people to erect these two wooden stakes?"

"You really want to know, aren't you afraid you will regret it later?" Li Chengqian asked Li Wenzhi with a smile on his face.

Li Wenzhi couldn't help feeling an ominous premonition, but he had already asked the question.He could only bite the bullet and nod his head.

Li Chengqian said to Zhao Tingxuan with a smile: "Since the governor of Bianzhou wants to know the function of this wooden stake, then you can help him to experience it in advance."

After Zhao Tingxuan let out a sigh, he ordered someone to take Li Wenzhi into custody.And pushed and shoved to the stake.

First, he stretched his hands into the iron ring and locked them, and then tied his feet firmly to the wooden stake.In this way, Li Wenzhi was firmly tied to the stake.

At this time Li Wenzhi already knew what Li Chengqian was going to do.But helplessly, even if he wanted to shout loudly, it was impossible.Because his mouth has been tightly gagged.

……

It was estimated that about two hours later, Xue Rengui came back with several carts of grain.And Lu Qinghong, who was following beside her, was even more arrogant.

He opened his mouth and said to Li Chengqian: "His Royal Highness, these grains are enough for you for two days. I will take people to fetch grains again in two days."

Li Chengqian nodded after hearing this, and then said to Lu Qinghong with a smile: "This king is a quick-tempered person. So I plan to find all the food today, what do you think?"

"His Royal Highness, do you think I will put my family and life behind me?" Lu Qinghong said to Li Chengqian with a smile.

Li Chengqian shook his head after hearing this, and then said: "No one would do that, after all, is it better to live than to die?"

"Since His Royal Highness understands this truth, why do you have to force me?" Lu Qinghong said to Li Chengqian with a smile on his face.

"Well, there's nothing else going on now, how about watching a good show with me?" Li Chengqian asked Lu Qinghong after nodding his head.

Lu Qinghong naturally didn't know why, so it was a very straightforward agreement.When Li Chengqian ordered someone to lift the cloth on the stake.Lu Qinghong was completely dumbfounded.

No matter what, he couldn't figure out why Li Wenzhi was tied to the stake.But before he opened his mouth to ask Li Chengqian.

I heard Li Chengqian say: "Fathers and folks, my king promised you two things yesterday. The first thing is to let you stop eating rice water. Now this king has done it."

"The second thing is to execute the corrupt officials who corrupted the Mo court's disaster relief in front of your face. Now this king has to fulfill his promise."

"However, this king feels that killing them like this is too cheap for them. So this king decided to execute them Ling Chi."

"Folks, if you wish, you can participate in this execution. Avenge your relatives who were starved to death."

Li Chengqian's words shocked all the disaster victims present.Some victims who died of family members due to starvation are even more eager to avenge their families.

But at this moment, the gray-haired old man from yesterday stood up and said, "Folks, we must not harm His Royal Highness."

"His Royal Highness King Xian was originally the Prince of the Eastern Palace, because he executed Wang Wen of the Taiyuan Wang family for the sake of the people of Qizhou City. I remember that he was also executed by Ling Chi at that time."

"Because of this incident, His Highness King Xian was retaliated against. In the end, the emperor had no choice but to abolish His Highness Xian Wang's position as the crown prince."

"If His Royal Highness the Xianwang kills Lu Qinghong from the Lu family in Fan Yang and Li Wenzhi from the Li family in Zhao County today, I am afraid that the Xianwang himself will not be able to protect himself."

Hearing the old man's words, the people present couldn't help but shed tears from their eyes.And tearfully begged Li Chengqian not to kill the two of them.

Li Chengqian never thought of this sudden scene.And Lu Qinghong also saw a glimmer of hope for life from then on.

But this hope was only born in an instant and shattered.Because Li Chengqian had already stood up and said to everyone: "Father and folks in Bianzhou City, this kind of corrupt officials can't atone for their crimes with a hundred deaths."

"Don't say that this king is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, even if this king is a commoner, they should be skinned and cramped. So don't worry about this king. Just avenge your family."

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he said to Cheng Yaojin beside him: "Uncle Cheng, would you like to go up and have a try?"

"Get out of here, kid. I, Cheng Yaojin, won't be your spearman. If this is the first cut, I'll cut it off."

"The boy will definitely put the whole shit bowl on my head." Cheng Yaojin said after curling his lips.

"I thought Uncle Cheng was a man, but I didn't expect that he was also afraid of a wealthy family. If that's the case, let me cut the first knife." After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he walked towards Li Wenzhi on the stake.

At the same time, Lu Qinghong was also tied to the stake by Xue Rengui.And it was in the direction opposite to Li Wenzhi.And also propped up its eyes with wooden sticks.

Just when Li Chengqian was about to move the knife, the white-haired old man suddenly stood in front of Li Chengqian.And said: "His Royal Highness, old man, I know that I can't stop you from eliminating harm for the people. But let me take the first stab."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Li Chengqian's reply, he directly snatched the sharp knife from Li Chengqian's hand.And stripped off Lu Qinghong's clothes.A sharp cut was made on his chest.

After cutting, he threw the sharp knife on the ground, and said to the stunned victims: "His Royal Highness is for us, regardless of his own safety."

"I think we should write a Ten Thousand Peoples Umbrella for His Royal Highness. Let everyone in the world know that His Royal Highness hates evil as much as hatred for the country and the people."

The white-haired old man's proposal was approved by everyone.And immediately started preparations to make the Wanmin Umbrella for Li Chengqian.

And at this time, no one noticed.The white-haired old man looked at Li Chengqian and nodded in satisfaction.
