As soon as he said this, Ye Fan's eyes widened in an instant, and he jumped up suddenly.

"What did you say? Li Yuan rebelled??"

"That's right, the news came from the messenger just now, saying that Li Yuan rebelled in Huaiyuan Town. His two sons, Li Shimin and Li Yuanba, have captured all the nearby counties and cities. They have nearly [-] troops, and their strength is very strong!"

"Li Yuanba?"

After Ye Fan reacted, his mind gradually calmed down: "Is Li Yuanba out of the mountain?"

"This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the emperor wants to execute Li Yuan and stay with his family in Luoyang!"

Qin Qiong was in a hurry: "Li Jiancheng has already run away, but Li Yuan's wife Dou Shi, Li Xiuning and Li Yuan's youngest son Li Zhiyun have all been arrested. The emperor is furious and is going to execute them!"

After listening to Qin Qiong's words, Ye Fan became calmer than ever.

"Don't worry, everyone will die, except Li Xiuning."

Ye Fan said with certainty.

"This is a crime of treason. Li Yuan threw his whole family in Luoyang. He obviously didn't want to care about them. His wife, Dou Shi, was already ill. Even if she didn't kill her head, she wouldn't live for a few years."

"As for the others, whether it's a child or a woman, Li Yuan is even less likely to care. Li Shimin, Li Yuanba, Li Jiancheng, and Li Yuanji in Lintong Pass have all made peace with Li Yuanbing. Their father and son joined hands to occupy Huaiyuan Town And the surrounding border counties!"

"So Li Xiuning must die!"

Qin Qiong was in a hurry.

Both he and Li Xiuning were comrades-in-arms who had fought bloody battles on the battlefield, and they had a deep friendship. Naturally, they couldn't bear to see Li Xiuning being implicated like this.

"Trust me, Li Xiuning will be fine, the emperor dare not kill her."

Having said that, Ye Fan put on his clothes and got up unhurriedly.

Seeing Ye Fan's calm and unhurried appearance, Qin Qiong didn't know where his confidence came from, but his flustered heart immediately calmed down a lot.

Afterwards, Ye Fan was not only not in a hurry, but also calmly ate breakfast.

After breakfast, Ye Fan got up to prepare his horse, walked side by side with Qin Qiong, and ran towards Ziwei City.

After half a stick of incense, the two came to Yingtianmen.

Li Yuan's family, young and old, were all arrested here.

Tang Gong's mansion was full of families, except for the concubines and maidservants of the opposite sex, all the lowly family slaves who followed the Li family name were also arrested.

There are all kinds of people, at least thirty or forty people.

And Yang Guang was sitting on the throne right now, as if he had been waiting for someone.

When Ye Fan came, Yang Guang was relieved.

"Ye Fan, you came just in time, you said, should I kill this person or not?"

Yang Guang seemed to be asking Ye Fan for instructions.

"do not kill."

Ye Fan shook his head.

"Why? Li Yuan's rebellion should be executed everywhere. If you don't want to kill him, you have to give me a reason, right?"

"First, Li Yuan rebelled. That's Li Yuan's business and has nothing to do with other people. Second, Li Xiuning has made contributions to the country. Even if he is at fault, the merits and demerits can be offset, and the death penalty can be eliminated."

"Thirdly, Li Yuan rebelled. Although he has given up on his family, it doesn't mean he doesn't want his family. Save the lives of Li's family. It may be useful at that time, so I said, don't kill."

Ye Fan gave three reasons clearly.

Yang Guang couldn't open his mouth even if he wanted to refute for a moment.

When he learned that Li Yuan rebelled in Huaiyuan, he immediately became furious.

Huaiyuan is located at the junction of Goguryeo and the Great Sui Dynasty, with Liaodong County, Yan County, and Liucheng County nearby. It can be said to be the throat of the Great Sui Dynasty!

He had already trusted Li Yuan very much, and felt that Li Yuan would not have second thoughts if he left his whole family in Luoyang.

But he never expected that Li Yuan would be so ruthless and tolerant.

The army was raised in Huaiyuan, occupying the three counties, and at the same time occupied most of the Khitan territory. The current Khitan is still a vegetable garden in the Sui Dynasty, and if it is occupied by Li Yuan, it is equivalent to having Li Yuan's rear.

As long as Li Yuan had a good relationship with Goguryeo, it would be like stabbing Da Sui severely in the neck.

Li Yuan was sandwiched between East Turkic, Goguryeo, and the Central Plains of the Sui Dynasty, and it seemed to be a bond-like existence.

In this way, as long as the three parties enter the territory of the other two countries, they must pass through Li Yuan.

How could Li Yuan not make Yang Guang angry by doing this?

So he immediately arrested all the Li clan and wanted to kill them quickly, but Lai Huer was very sober and hurriedly stopped him.

Lai Hu'er was one of the first people who came into contact with Ye Fan, and he knew the importance of Ye Fan very well.

It is well known that Li Xiuning fought side by side with Ye Fan on the battlefield, and the friendship between the two is extremely deep.

If Yang Guang killed Li Xiuning and the whole Li family in a fit of anger, Ye Fan would definitely be angry too.

That's why Yang Guang didn't kill the Li family, but waited for Ye Fan to come.

But even so, he was still very angry. He even thought that if Ye Fan came and didn't give a suitable reason, then Yang Guang would also smash Ye Fan.
