Brutality is not the way to resolve disputes, Confucianism thousands of years ago used all kinds of ways to tell the people who are willing to learn from it that convincing people with reason is the king, all kinds of famous sayings and golden sentences, boiled down to three words, "harmony is precious".

Of course Li Su understands this truth, in fact, he is a very reasonable person, even if the reason cannot convince others, he will choose to be silent and turn away very gentlemanly.

However, there is a scope of truth, and some places, some people, do not talk about this thing.

Following the customs of the locals, Li Su had no choice but to be arrogant.

Riding into the city, all the shops and houses on both sides of the street were closed and closed, and the people and merchants of the city were gathered in the open space of the western market, and thousands of people gathered quietly together, watching the long street to the north with anxiety.

The yellow sand whirls with the wind, raising the yellow dust in the sky, through the foggy haze, I saw two teams of cavalry slowly coming from a left and a right in the distance, and a young man in a light scarlet official robe was gathered in the middle, next to the young man, two guards followed in steps, and the back was a middle-aged fat man with a big tie, the fat man was disheveled, his hair was scattered, and his face was covered with various bruises.

When the cavalry camp approached, the people and merchants gathered in the West Market suddenly became in a commotion, and all kinds of discussions in the crowd came and went, and when the cavalry camp came to the front of everyone, the discussion stopped abruptly, and the entire open space in the West Market was silent.

There is a small wooden platform in front of the West Market, which was originally used by the slave market, and the Hu merchants and Tang merchants sold all kinds of male and female slaves from the small countries of the Western Regions, and sold them on this small wooden platform after coming to Xizhou, often male slaves or female slaves stood in a row, allowing the male slaves to show their strong muscles. Let the slave girl show her pretty or well-proportioned figure, and then the spectators below bid one after another, and a gong strikes, and the dust settles.

At this moment today, Mutai was naturally requisitioned by the cavalry battalion, facing countless eyes that were either apprehensive, resentful, or numb. Li Susheng walked up to the wooden platform with his hands, the cavalry soldiers behind him escorted Feng Sima to follow closely, Wang Zhu Zheng Xiaolou followed one left and one right, and then behind, Xiang Tian and other Zhichong Mansion soldiers stood far away, looking angry and unspeakable.

The open space was full of people, all of whom were people and merchants who had settled in Xizhou, and there were many Hu people among them, and Xizhou was a multi-ethnic mixed place. The Hu people here account for more than one-third, and the Turks, Qiuzi, Gaochang, and even further away are Tubo, Dashi, Persia and other countries. This also proves that the situation in Xizhou is not without reason, and the people of so many small countries live in the same city. Whether it is friction on weekdays, conflict of beliefs, or life customs, in short, living in this city, life cannot be peaceful.

Interestingly. Although there are many Hu people in Xizhou, whether it is Turkic or Qiuzi Persia, although their appearance is full of exotic customs, everyone is wearing serious Tang Dynasty costumes, and many blonde and blue-eyed foreigners are wearing Tang costumes. It looks like a golden retriever monkey.

Li Su walked up to the wooden platform, first swept around the silent crowd, and then looked at Xiang Tian in the distance, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

After stepping forward and taking two steps, Li Su faced thousands of people and said loudly: "This official is the son of Jingyang County of the Tang Dynasty, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has sealed Xizhou Don't drive, General Dingyuan, my name is Li Su, it doesn't matter if you recognize me or not, the important thing is that from today on, you must remember my appearance!" ”

"Three days ago, the daughter of the Zhao family in the north of the city was ruined and committed suicide, there are rumors in the city these days, saying that this tragic case of losing all conscience was done by the soldiers of the cavalry camp outside the city, today the official led the troops into the city, for this case, I and the soldiers of the cavalry camp are from the Tang Guanzhong, the people in Guanzhong dare to do things, it is what I and the soldiers of the cavalry camp do, patted my chest and confessed, kill to pay for my life, and live again in 20 years, but if it is not for me and the soldiers to do, I can't recognize a word, right and wrong, black and white, good and evil, justice and freedom in the hearts of the people, I know that you don't believe it, we have a hard time arguing, bring a person today, this person you should all know, black and white, right and wrong, let him speak! ”

Saying that, Li Su turned his head, the smile in his eyes gradually turned cold, and he raised his voice: "Feng Sima, among them, black and white, you must know best, in front of the whole city, you can give an explanation!" ”

The two soldiers who were holding Feng Sima pushed him forward, and Feng Sima's fat body staggered two steps and was pushed to stand in front of the stage.

Feng Sima has been an official in Xizhou for many years, and all the people in the city know him.

Feng Sima's face was pale, his expression was gloomy, and he hung his head and was silent in front of the people of the city, Li Su waited patiently for a moment, and when he saw that he didn't say a word, his brows suddenly furrowed.

The Wang Zhu behind him was quite eye-catching, and when he saw this, he stepped forward and kicked Feng Sima hard at the crook of his knee, and Feng Sima pounced and knelt in front of the people on the stage, screaming involuntarily in pain.

"Feng Sima, my patience is limited, you'd better not rub shoulders, the daughter of the Zhao family has been ruined, who is the real culprit, and I hope that Feng Sima will return the innocence of my cavalry soldiers." Li Su said coldly.

Hearing the murderous intent in Li Su's tone, Feng Sima's body twitched a few times, raised his head and glanced at the people, then lowered his head and cried: "...... The daughter of the Zhao family was ruined, and she really had nothing to do with the riding camp. ”

The people in the audience were at a loss.

"Louder!" Jiang Quan suddenly shouted.

Feng Sima was so frightened that his body trembled, and he roared with a crying voice: "The daughter of the Zhao family was ruined, it has nothing to do with the cavalry battalion, it was not done by the cavalry battalion soldiers!" ”

This time, the people in the audience finally heard clearly, and the crowd was silent for a moment, and then there was a loud discussion.

On the edge of the open space in the West Market, Xiang Tian, who was watching from afar, suddenly became ugly, seeing that the situation was overwhelmed and difficult to recover, Xiang Tian gritted his teeth, stomped his feet on the spot, and turned around and ran towards the Assassin's Mansion.

On the wooden platform, Li Su slowly took a step forward and said, "Explain things clearly!" ”

Feng Sima's fat cheeks kept trembling. Cold sweat flowed down his face, and he hung his head and cried: "The daughter of the Zhao family was ruined, who is the real murderer...... It's ......"

"What is it?"

Feng Sima raised his head and glanced helplessly at the bottom of the stage, on the edge of the open space under the wooden platform, four soldiers surrounded a pair of pink and jade children in the middle, the soldiers were tall, and a pair of children were clustered in the crowd Obviously, but Feng Sima still recognized them at a glance.

Feng Sima's eyes showed a look of despair, and he cried: "I did it at my behest......"

The audience was in an uproar, and after the people were stunned for a moment, they then became noisy like a fried pot.

Li Su saw the reaction of the people one by one, and asked step by step while the iron was hot: "Who did you instruct, how did that person commit the murder, where did he go afterwards, why did you frame my cavalry soldiers, in front of the whole city, you give me an honest explanation!" ”

The case has been admitted, but Feng Sima has no scruples at this time, and he speaks much more happily.

"I instructed the guards in a Hu merchant team, I heard that it was a Turk, and spent 500 yuan to order the Turkic man to dress up as a cavalry battalion soldier, and at night in the wine shop to claim that he was the cavalry of the cavalry battalion, to confuse people's eyes and ears, and then pretended to be drunk and broke into the Zhao family, and after knocking the father and mother of the Zhao family's daughter, he deliberately made a big disturbance, and finally ...... The daughter of his family was ruined, and after the Zhao family reported to the official, I sent someone to investigate, and the daughter of the Zhao family was hanged to death in the room, and the next morning, this person followed the Hu Shang team to Chang'an, and could not be found again......"

Li Su said with a gloomy face: "When did my cavalry camp offend you, why did you frame us?" ”

Feng Sima closed his eyes and cried: "Li Beijia, the border of Xizhou, many countries live together, the imperial court wants to abandon but does not give up, and the neighboring countries want to take it but dare not take it, in this place, where is the real black and white?" If you are framed, you are framed. ”

Li Su's heart was shocked.

In just one sentence, it seems to say the real situation of Xizhou, abandon but not abandon, take but not take, so this place has become a place where dragons and snakes are mixed, as Feng Sima said, where does this place come from black and white?

Li Su fell into deep thought, but the people in the audience couldn't calm down.

The two figures flew to the stage, raised their fists and hit Feng Sima like raindrops, but it was the father and mother of the Zhao family's daughter, and the two cried and scolded while fighting: "Beast! Brute! My daughter is so innocent, she has been so spoiled by you beasts, and we and other untouchables are living in Xizhou, is there really no justice here? ”

Feng Sima hung his head and let the raindrops of fists and feet hit his body, but he stared at Li Su with tears in his eyes, and cried: "Li Beijia, I will die today, the people don't know what is going on, Li Beijia, you say, is the culprit of this case of losing all conscience really me?" Is it really me? ”

Li Su said in a deep voice: "Maybe it's not you, but you still can't escape the blame, Feng Sima, this case has a beginning and an end, and the plan is successful, this is not something you can do alone, tell me, how many other officials from the Xizhou Assassin Mansion are involved in the planning of this case?" ”

Feng Sima trembled, his face quickly turned pale, and even his fat lips lost their blood, and he pursed his lips without saying a word.

Li Su smiled coldly, bent down and whispered in his ear: "Tomorrow, I will send someone to send your parents, wife, concubines, and children to Chang'an, buy them land and build houses, and send money to ensure that your Feng family will continue to take root and will not be conspired against by my colleagues in Xizhou." ”

Feng Sima's tears flowed even more urgently.

At this moment, he finally realized what a stupid thing it was for him to personally plan this case to blame Li Suhe and the cavalry camp, how could he calculate the mind of this teenager?

On the wooden platform, Li Su looked at the sky with his hands in his hands and said coldly: "Feng Sima, I'm waiting for your answer." ”
