As mentioned above, after Li Ruan entered the sphere of influence of the chaotic people, he was originally a little flustered.

However, when he heard Liu Ye call himself a "sinner", he saw Liu Ye kneeling on the shore with a humble attitude, not only with his head lying on the ground, but also with his ass pouting high, and he immediately felt certain in his heart!

Obviously, although this Liu Ye is the leader of the chaotic people, he still retains the awe of the imperial court in his heart, and he has a positive attitude towards the imperial court's Zhao'an!

In that case, everything is easy to say!

Li Ru'an is the northwest supervisor appointed by the imperial court, and the plenipotentiary envoy sent by Zhao Junchen, with the reputation of "righteousness", as long as Liu Ye has the heart to submit, he will never dare to make things difficult for Li Ru'an!

In fact, after Li Ru'an arrived in Tianshui City, his biggest reliance was also in the name of "the righteousness of the imperial court", and the officials and people of Tianshui City did not dare to disobey easily!

In fact, the so-called "righteousness of the court" is quite a bit of a bully and fear of the hard, if the other party does not put the "righteousness of the court" in his eyes, then this title is useless, and the person who represents the "righteousness of the court" can only shrink his head and pretend to be a grandson; But if the other party attaches great importance to the "righteousness of the court" in his heart, then the person who represents the "righteousness of the court" can also be anti-guest and fearless.

In a way, this is the same as "lying in the nest" and "gentlemen deceiving them"! Some people are wretched outside, but when they come home, they are like uncles, and they only know how to be submissive when they are bullied by wicked people, but they have a bad attitude towards gentlemen - why? It's just because these people know very well in their hearts that their families and gentlemen will not retaliate against them, so they can harm them unscrupulously!

This kind of truth is really chilling when you think about it.

At this time, Li Ru'an was like this, after seeing Liu Ye's attitude, not only was he sure in his heart, but even his waist was much straighter.

I saw Li Ru'an step out of the boat, slowly walked in front of Liu Ye, first looked at Liu Ye for a moment, and then asked in a pinched tone: "You are Liu Ye, the leader of the rebels in Tianshui City?" ”

When asking, Li Ruan didn't have the slightest intention of letting Liu Ye get up, so he let Liu Ye and the others kneel.

In Li Ru'an's opinion, since Liu Ye is still in awe of the imperial court, he must take the opportunity to show his majesty, show the majesty of the imperial court, and leave a deep impression on Liu Ye at the moment, and he can't easily pardon the crimes of the troubled people!

Liu Ye still buried his head in the ground, and replied respectfully: "The sinner is Liu Ye!" But I also hope that the Lord of the Prison Army will see that the people of Tianshui City are not trying to rebel and cause chaos this time, but that the corrupt officials and gentry in Tianshui City are too hateful, and the people are really forced to live by them......"

However, before Liu Ye finished speaking, Li Ru'an interrupted sharply: "Those corrupt officials and bad gentry in Tianshui City are naturally hateful, but they have their own court laws and punishments, how can they be the reason for you to rebel!?" When we see that you are also a scholar, have you even forgotten the word loyalty? Do you know that now is the time when the fire is sifting into the Kou, everyone is the same enemy, concentrating on dealing with the Mongolian Tartars, and the Lord Qincha sent by the imperial court is full of strategy, and he was originally going to surround the Mongolian army, just because of the civil turmoil in your Tianshui City, now he has missed the warplane, how much impact is this? Originally, this battle could ensure the stability of the border in the whole territory of Shaanxi and Gansu for decades to come, but now because of your Tianshui City, the results of the battle may be greatly reduced! The people of your Tianshui City are happy for a while, but the tens of millions of people in the northwestern provinces will be dragged down by you! It is not an exaggeration to say that you are the sinners of the people of the northwest for the ages......"

Under Li Ru'an's tirade reprimand, Liu Ye still buried his head, as if he was flustered in his heart and didn't dare to refute, but the faces of several chaotic people behind Liu Ye gradually became difficult to look at, and they only felt that Li Ru'an's reprimand was too much, and one of them couldn't help but snort coldly to express dissatisfaction.

After hearing the cold snort, Li Ru'an's reprimand suddenly stagnated.

Li Ru'an first glanced at the few men behind Liu Ye with his spare eyes, and found that they were all big men who were not easy to provoke, and then thought that the chaotic people had not really returned to obedience now, and now that he was still in the enemy territory, he must not be persecuted too much, and his face couldn't help but change slightly.

Then, I saw Li Ru'an cough lightly, and his attitude quietly softened, but he sighed: "Do you know that after Lord Qincha Zhao learned about the Tianshui civil turmoil, he was very angry!" If it is a different person, I am afraid that a large army will be sent to Tianshui Town on the spot to suppress the rebellion, and then all the people of Tianshui City will probably be in great trouble! Fortunately, our Lord Zhao has always been concerned about the people, and he also knows that you have been wronged, so he did not send a large army to quell the rebellion, but gave you a chance, which is why our family came to see you this time! ”

Liu Ye saw Li Ru'an's tone soften, and hurriedly explained: "The sinners also know the benevolence and righteousness of Lord Zhao!" Jianbi Qingye was originally the good governance of the Qincha people who cared for the people, and they didn't want to see the people being brutalized by the Mongol Tatars, so they gathered all the people into the city, but the officials of Tianshui City were uneasy and kind when they carried out the orders of the Qincha Lord, and the people were really unbearable...... Of course, no matter what, the people should not make trouble, let alone destroy the overall situation of Lord Chincha, the criminals are the leaders elected by the people, and they are willing to go to Lord Chincha to accept the guilt, whether Lord Chincha wants to kill or scrape at that time, the criminals have no words, I only hope that Lord Chincha can let the people go, they just involuntarily involved in this civil unrest, and the vast majority of people are innocent! ”

Hearing Liu Ye's words, Li Ru'an's face eased again, and said, "You stand up and speak." ”

At Li Ru'an's suggestion, Liu Ye and the others finally stood up one after another.

After Li Ru'an looked at Liu Ye carefully, he said slowly: "Regarding your matter, this prison army has also heard that this civil unrest was not provoked by you, but you have a good reputation, and after the civil unrest, you were elected by the rebels to become the leader!" And after you became the leader, not only did you not continue to lead the people to rebel, but you repeatedly restrained the actions of the rebels, and it is precisely because of your restraint that this civil unrest did not cause much damage, and the Tianshui Rebellion did not continue to expand. ”

After a pause, Li Ruan continued: "Don't worry, after our family arrived in Tianshui City, we have found out that this civil unrest is actually a rebellion by officials and people, although you are at fault, but the main responsibility is still those corrupt officials and inferior gentry!" Lord Qincha Zhao also pitied the plight of the people of Tianshui City, and did not want to send troops to suppress it, in that case, it would be too widely implicated, and the people of Tianshui City would probably be overwhelmed and killed...... Our family came to see you this time, in fact, for the sake of Zhao'an! Now, those corrupt officials and inferior gentry in Tianshui City have been killed by our family, and we ask you, are the people of your southern and western cities willing to accept the imperial court's edict? If you accept it, we can pardon your past sins on behalf of Lord Chincha!" ”

After hearing Li Ru'an's expression, Liu Ye's sleeping phoenix eyes suddenly widened, his face was full of excitement and joy, and he knelt down again and said: "We and the people of Tianshui City originally had no intention of rebelling, and now the imperial court is willing to pardon our crimes, and we are naturally willing to accept Zhao'an!" ”

It's just that after expressing his position, Liu Ye raised his head slightly and said: "However, as far as the people know, although Lord Qincha is the plenipotentiary representative of the imperial court, he does not have the right to forgive sins, and after the court knows about this afterwards, if he is unwilling to admit Lord Qincha's promise and settle accounts after the autumn......"

Li Ru'an couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he saw that Liu Ye had taken these things into account, and only felt that Liu Ye's insight was good.

After pondering for a while, Li Ruan said meaningfully: "Since you can think of these things, you are also a clear-eyed person, so our family will tell you clearly!" As long as you are willing to accept Zhao'an, then the civil unrest in Tianshui City will be regarded as if it has never happened, and it will not be reported to the imperial court, and the imperial court has not received the news of the civil unrest, so naturally there will be no such thing as settling accounts after the autumn...... Of course, it is impossible to completely hide it from the imperial court, but our current majesty understands the difference between priority and importance, so even if he hears the rumor, there is a chance that he will turn a blind eye when the time comes...... We say that, do you understand? ”

Liu Ye naturally understood what Li Ru'an meant, but there was still some concern in his expression, and said: "According to the people of the sinners, even if the imperial court will not settle accounts with the people of Tianshui City, I am afraid that it will not easily let go of the leaders of the civil unrest, after all, the matter of rebellion and rebellion is too serious, and for the imperial court, 'only punishing the evil' is already the bottom line......"

Li Ru'an frowned and asked, "What, do you still have concerns?" Can't you believe that Lord Qincha can't do it with our family? ”

Liu Ye hurriedly said: "It's not that I can't believe Lord Qincha and Lord Prison Army, but this is also for the sake of Lord Qincha and Lord Prison Army!" If the imperial court learns that the two adults have privately pardoned the crimes of the rebellious people without the consent of the imperial court, I am afraid it will also be a trouble for the two adults, but if the two adults kill the leader of the rebellious people and then pardon Zhao'an, the nature of this matter will be completely different, and the possibility of the imperial court settling accounts with the people of Tianshui City will be much lower! ”

Li Ruan was stunned again, and looked at Liu Ye again, his eyes full of incredulity.

Could it be that in order to reduce the possibility of settling accounts after the autumn of the imperial court, this Liu Ye in front of him actually wanted to sacrifice his life for righteousness and apologize for his sins with death?

However, without waiting for Li Ru'an to ask, Liu Ye took the initiative to speak: "Lord Supervisor, do you know that there are two groups of rebels in Shuicheng today? ”

Hearing Liu Ye's inquiry, Li Ru'an frowned again, but he had a headache, but he still nodded and said: "Our family naturally knows about this matter, the other group of chaotic people is mostly composed of soldiers and scoundrels, and now they occupy Beicheng, but their behavior is much worse than yours, and they don't have much reverence for the imperial court!" Our family is also having a headache now about how to deal with them, if it is Zhao'an, I am afraid it will not be easy, but if it is to send troops to quell the rebellion, it will also be a big move and delay time! Our family originally planned to appease you, and then you would contact the chaotic people! ”

Liu Ye lowered his head and said, "I hope that Lord Prison Jun will be relieved, you don't have to worry about the rebels in Beicheng anymore!" ”

Li Ruan was stunned again and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

I saw Liu Ye nodding lightly to a man behind him, and then the man took out a sack and threw it to the ground.

After the sack was thrown to the ground, several heads suddenly rolled out of the sack.

Just like those corrupt officials and inferior gentry who were killed by Li Ru'an, these heads all looked incredibly dead before they died.

The appearance of these heads immediately startled Li Ruan and the others.

Li Ru'an asked sharply, "Liu Ye, what do you mean by this?" Whose heads are these? ”

Liu Ye said softly: "These are the heads of the leaders of the rebels in the northern city!" From Wang Hu downwards, several leaders of the rebels in Beicheng have now been ambushed! The grass people felt that after having these heads, not only would the affairs of the chaotic people in Beicheng be better solved, but it would also be easier for Lord Qincha and Lord Supervisor to explain to the imperial court afterwards! ”

After hearing Liu Ye's explanation, Li Ruan looked at Liu Ye in front of him in a daze, Liu Ye at this time was still humble and obedient, but Li Ruan found that he couldn't see through this person anymore, and originally thought that this person was in awe of the court and could be easily subdued, but Li Ruan was a little more jealous of him at this time.
