After listening to Qi Xiaobai's words, Qian Yi was silent, as Qi Xiaobai said, when he did all this, he was ready to bear the consequences of failure.

In this era of many princes and competing with each other for hegemony, no matter whether it is good or evil, but in terms of victory and defeat, he lost, his plan was not achieved, and his failure can only be attributed to his inflated ambition and his own lack of ability.

If he had been a businessman with peace of mind, paid his taxes on time, and did not collude with the nobles and officials of the Qi State, perhaps he would not have fallen to such a point.

"Your family, in fact, you killed it!" Qi Xiaobai looked at Qian Yi and said.

Although Qi Xiaobai ordered the execution of his thirteen clansmen, in fact, these thirteen clansmen were involved by Qian Yi, and Qian Yi also knew that what he was doing was a matter of being affected by Zhulian, and once he failed, his family would be affected by Zhulian.

But he still chose to do this, and at this time, he had already put the safety of his family at risk, so his family was killed by himself.

Qian Yi was silent, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Qi Xiaobai, his head was already broken, he only hoped that his kowtow confession would allow Qi Xiaobai to take back his life and let his family go.

"Your Majesty, even if you don't let go of these thirteen tribes, please let go of the children here, some of them are less than three years old!" Qian Yi looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

The thirteen clansmen were executed, then they were executed, this is a helpless thing, but then again, one person has ascended to heaven with a chicken dog, and his wealth and righteousness have developed, and these clansmen have followed him to enjoy the glory and wealth that they should enjoy.

Now they are going to be executed, which is actually a matter of course, the so-called blessings are shared, and the difficulties must be shared.

But Qian Yi thinks that the children in his family are innocent, some of them have just been born, some are less than three years old, and they have not yet seen what the world is like, and they will be executed, which is cruel.

Therefore, Qian Yi kowtowed to pray for his children, but at a glance of the king, the horse was difficult to chase, and Qi Xiaobai had already issued an order, how could he easily take it back?

Otherwise, who else will obey this royal command in the future? What's more important is to cut the grass to remove the roots, this spring breeze blows and grows!

Other people's words can be used as child's play, but the king's words are absolutely impossible to be child's play, since Qi Xiaobai has given the order, he can't easily take back his fate.

No matter how Qian Yi begged for mercy, Qi Xiaobai was still indifferent, and the guards pulled Qian Yi, and when they found that they couldn't pull it, Qi Xiaobai waved his hand: "Take it out!" ”

It took a lot of effort for the two guards to take Qian Yi away, and Qi Xiaobai looked at the ministers in the court and asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, do you think what I did was brutal?" ”

The ministers knelt on the ground one after another, and Shusun Tong took the lead and shouted first: "The king is benevolent and righteous, comparable to Emperor Zhou Huai!" ”

After hearing this, the people shouted in unison: "The king is benevolent and righteous, and he can be compared to Emperor Zhou Huai!" ”

Emperor Huai of Zhou was a benevolent emperor of the Zhou Empire, and when he succeeded to the throne, the Zhou Empire had not yet completely declined, and his power was still at its peak, but his status set a record, that is, he did not kill a single person.

This is something that successive emperors have not done, even if the Zhou Empire declines, but a small people, or eunuch, offends the emperor, they will be killed.

But Emperor Zhou Huaidi has never killed one, and he treats people generously, even if there are some eunuchs who have no eyes and do things that are not authentic, he will not blame them, but endure them himself.

Called the most benevolent emperor in the world by historians, when he succeeded to the throne, he wanted to promote the policy of leniency, so he was called 'Huai' Emperor, and after his death, people also missed him, and Huai was also written on his nickname!

And Shusun Tong knelt on the ground and said that Qi Xiaobai could be compared with such a benevolent emperor, in fact, it means that Qi Xiaobai is a very benevolent person.

Qi Xiaobai heard this, nodded, looked at the direction of Shusun Tong and nodded, and the surrounding ministers were muttering in their hearts, this Shusun Tong is really too flattering.

Although Qi Xiaobai also knew that this uncle Sun Tong was touting him, what kind of emperor was Emperor Huai this week, he Qi Xiaobai had also seen it in the history books, Qi Xiaobai thought that he could not compare with this kind of benevolent emperor.

But sometimes, Qi Xiaobai just needs this kind of person who can praise him, who can drive the rhythm of the court, can give himself a tip, and occasionally can also give the ministers a tip.

Just like what Qi Xiaobai did just now was very brutal, but Qi Xiaobai himself couldn't say that it was brutal, he had to say that it was righteous and benevolent.

He said to himself, of course not, he needs someone to stand up and say, this is to give himself a tip, and at this time Shusun Tong just stood up.

Shusun Tong said this, and these ministers will also follow this stage and follow the trend and say, this Qi Xiaobai can say righteously, I am not cruel, I am merciful, you see all the ministers said so.

Of course, these ministers are also elites, and when they hear that their uncle and grandson are taking the lead, they will immediately follow suit, and those who are uncomfortable at this time will not be able to get to this position.

Because of Qi Xiaobai's reforms and the suppression of Confucianism, those pedantic Confucians basically couldn't ascend to the court of Qi.

And the family is from a great Confucian family, and under the preaching of Shusun Tong, the family also changed, and the pedantic Confucians, in order to survive, even if they firmly believe that their Confucianism and Taoism are right, they also follow Shusun Tong.

Although they are pedantic Confucianism and Taoism, they are the same sect as Shusun Tong's Confucianism and Taoism, and Shusun Tong will also accept them, not let them decline, and help them keep the fire.

Although Shusun Tong is a villain and thinks he is a villain, he still does some big things very well, and he has his own righteousness in his heart.

For example, in the suppression of pedantic Confucianism in the Qi State, his uncle Sun Tong stood up and accepted them and let them keep them, although Shusun Tong felt that the pedantic Confucianism was not doing right, but he knew that this was the characteristic of Confucianism and Taoism, and it was necessary for him to retain these pedantic Confucians as the inheritor of Confucianism and Taoism.

Although he kept them from dying and helped them get some official positions, Shusun Tong also knew that these pedantic Confucians could not ascend to the cabinet of Qi or serve in the power organs of Qi State.

Therefore, the positions he arranged for them were all small positions, and it was enough to ensure that their inheritance continued.

Of course, if he is really a talented pedantic Confucian, he will also introduce him to Qi Xiaobai, and understand the introduction of his identity or something, whether he uses it or not, is Qi Xiaobai's business.

Of course, Qi Xiaobai will also appoint people who are really talented and learned, but he will not give them high-level official titles, but will arrange them to play their talents in certain positions.

Let them experience officialdom, under the bloodbath of officialdom, those who adapt to it get high-ranking official titles, they are no longer the kind of pedantic Confucians, and those who fail continue to be where they are cooked.
