Chapter 294: The Old Minister
Today, these people kneeling on the streets of Xishi are very difficult to kill for anyone in the capital, and they don't even dare to kill, even the emperor himself, who also wants to kill but doesn't dare to kill, but for Li Xin, killing them is very simple.
When the hour came, Li Xin, who was sitting on the main seat, threw out the beheading order on the table lightly, and the executioner's eyes did not blink, a mouthful of liquor sprayed on the knife, and then looked up at the sun at the right head, and then muttered a few words to the prisoner, and then a steel knife flew by, and the prisoner's head fell to the ground.
The onlookers applauded in unison!
After all, most of the people in Xishi Street are small people, they don't know who the person killed is, and they don't understand why they want to kill, they just just watch the excitement, and see that these killers are skillful, and they start to applaud in unison when they go down with a knife.
However, there were also scholars among the onlookers, including students, petty officials in the capital, and some ordinary talents who had never entered the Guozijian.
"Master Yan!"
"Grand Master!"
Some of these people are called teachers, some are called teachers, some are called uncles and uncles, among the scholars, all kinds of relationships are complicated, and all the civil officials in the capital, as long as they are willing to trace, they will definitely be able to trace each other back to the origin.
Seeing that Xishi Street was scarlet all over the place, Marquis Jing'an just squinted his eyes and didn't even blink his eyes.
He has seen too many things of this kind of dead people, in the early years of the westward expedition, a siege lasted for three days and three nights, and there were one or two thousand casualties or more every day, and the entire camp was full of the smell of blood and stumps and broken arms.
Among these people, although some people are innocent and implicated, or their crimes are not to death, but in the final analysis, it is Shen Kuan who is strict and clumsy, and these people want to die, if they want to die today, then they deserve to die.
Everyone needs to pay for what they do, there has never been mercy in the power field, if this time it was Shen Kuan and others who succeeded in deposing the emperor and setting up another son of heaven, at that time they would only kill more people than now, not less than now.
After the beheading, someone quickly cleaned up the scene, but those indignant scholars were still yelling, and some of them were directly scolding at the court and Li Xin, the prison official.
The Marquis of Jing'an was expressionless, walked up to these scholars with his hands in his hands, and said coldly: "The people killed in Xishi Street today are all anti-thieves, you have a teacher and an uncle, do you want to have a relationship with them?" ”
"If so, Yu Linwei can arrest someone at any time."
As soon as the two sentences came out, everyone immediately coaxed, and some people had already begun to leave the scene secretly.
However, there are always warriors in this world who are not afraid of death, and now a scholar at the front is furious, and shouted angrily at Li Xin: "Master Yan has been honest all his life, and I don't know how many corrupt officials and corrupt officials have been defeated over the years. ”
"Don't you remember the merits of Master Yan over the years!"
The strict master in his mouth is the strict guard of the imperial historian.
To be honest, Yan Shouchou is indeed quite honest as an official, and when Tianmu Jian went to check on him, he only found some mistakes he made when he was inspecting the imperial history in the local area, compared to most officials in the court, Yan Shouchou can even be regarded as a model of a clean official.
But alas, he didn't stand on the right side.
Faced with this situation, Mrs. Li's reaction was very direct.
"Yan Shou clumsily wants to abolish the Son of Heaven, and so on to conspire against him, his documents have been handed over to Weiyang Palace, is this still unnecessary?"
The scholar's face turned red, and he gritted his teeth and said: "The Son of Heaven is immoral, so he will naturally be abolished!" ”
"Good."
The Marquis of Jing'an beckoned to Xie Dai behind him, and his tone was indifferent: "This person is a strict and clumsy comrade, and he was also arrested and sent to the prison of Jingzhao Mansion." ”
Xie Dai sighed, bowed his head and answered, and then took four or five wolf-like Yu Linwei to tie this person up directly, and when he saw that he was still screaming and scolding, he strangled his mouth directly with a strip of cloth and put him down.
Marquis Jing'an was expressionless, walked to the high platform, and looked at a group of onlookers.
"Some of you probably know me, but most of you don't."
He put his hands in his sleeves and said in a calm tone: "This official Li Xin, trusted by His Majesty, Ren Taifu, the general of the forbidden army, is fully responsible for this rebellion case." ”
"This case, the official is investigating, and the person is also being killed, the small people among you are too lazy to look for me, but the scholars among you, especially the disciples and grandchildren of these anti-thieves, most of them have hated me so much at this time, if you have any dissatisfaction, you can come to the Jing'an Hou Mansion to find the official."
Speaking of this, Li Xin smiled coldly.
"I'm the best at reasoning with readers."
As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately quieted down a lot.
Li Xin's early victory in the western expedition was famous all over the world, and the people in the capital may not have seen him, but most of them have heard his name, and they also know that he is a student of the old prince Ye Sheng.
Only some scholars in scholar's clothes gritted their teeth and hated to eat Li Xin in one bite.
This is the reason why Li Xin said that he would "leave a stench for 10,000 years", and he came to Xishi Street to kill people, and he would not offend the people in the capital, but only these scholars.
However, most of the power of public opinion is in the hands of readers, and the history books of the Great Jin Dynasty also need to be written by these readers.
At least half of the people who have a bad reputation in history have offended the scholars.
Li Xin's words can be said to have mercilessly slapped these scholars in the face, and even provoked them in front of these people.
Come here~!
In the face of the current court master, these people naturally did not dare to go over, but the people standing in the back row dared to open their mouths and scold.
"Li Changan, you framed the grandmaster of the literary world and cut off my Dajin cultural lineage!"
"Two of the four auxiliary ministers appointed by the first emperor died in your hands!"
"Traitor to the country!"
The readers were furious, scolded and scolded, and began the personal attacks they were best at.
"Charcoal thief!"
"Those who sell carbon and fire also want to control the government!"
In the face of these scoldings, the Marquis of Jing'an just listened quietly, and then sneered slightly.
He was about to speak, when an old man with gray hair, with the help of a few subordinates, barely parted the crowd and squeezed to the front.
The old man was wearing a cloth robe, and his steps were a little unsteady, but with the support of his subordinates, he walked to the high platform and stood in front of Li Xin, and he bowed to Li Xin.
The Marquis of Jing'an was stunned, and also bowed to the old man.
After the old man saluted, he looked back at the scholars gathered around, and sighed slightly: "Everyone, listen to the old man's advice, now disperse immediately, you should go home and go home, you should return to the country and return to the country, this matter is not something you can participate in." ”
"Just by virtue of your one teacher just now, Mrs. Li can arrest you all and ask for guilt, Mrs. Li is merciful and doesn't care about you, you still don't know what to do here."
As soon as these words came out, they immediately aroused public outrage.
These scholars did not recognize this old man, and they glared angrily.
"It's clear that he, Li Chang'an, is causing chaos in the country, and the old man is old, do you have to bow your head and bend your waist for power?"
"Selling charcoal thieves to kill auxiliary ministers and rebel against the emperor!"
"Does the old thief want to protect the charcoal thief?"
The old man sighed a little helplessly: "Everyone, the old man is also a scholar, the old man ......."
He wanted to argue with these people, but his voice was too small to be heard.
Marquis of Jing'an walked up to the old man with a smile on his face.
"Old man, originally they only scolded me, but now it's good, even you scolded together."
