Chapter 418 Inner Saint and Outer King

When Liu Yi's order came, even Fu Geng, who had always been calm, suddenly changed his expression.

"Eleven kills...Eleven kills!"

"Liu Yi, how dare you, a villain, do this..."

Shamalayi cursed loudly again.

But this time the Han troops who were watching over them were not polite.

"Bang!"

The commander of the Han army drew his scabbard on Shamala Yi's mouth.

Blood mixed with teeth spurted out of Samarayi's mouth.

Shamalayi fainted and fell to the ground instantly, unable to curse anymore.

Fu Geng and several other leaders were shocked and suddenly became quiet.

The extraordinary actions of the Han army let these Di leaders know that the Han people were serious about it this time.

Fu Geng also had a look of worry on his face, Liu Yi's approach was completely beyond his expectation.

"Chief Fu Geng, aren't the Han people afraid that we Di people will continue to resist?"

A small tribe leader on the side looked at Shamalayi on the ground with lingering fear, and asked in a low and incomprehensible voice.

How could Fu Geng have the intention to answer his question at this time? Lueyang Di was the one who massacred the most Han people during the rebellion.

Fu Geng looked at the squirming Shamala Yi on the ground uneasily, but in his heart he was worried about Lueyang Di's future.

…

In the military tent, Wu Zheng, with a livid face, reported the intelligence from the interrogation to Liu Yi.

"Liu Hou, most of the Han people massacred in Wudu County died at the hands of Lueyang Di and Baima Di..."

Liu Yi muttered repeatedly: "The names of Lueyang Di and Baima Di!"

"Liu Hou, did you really let Lueyang Di and Baima Di go so easily?"

Seeing that Liu Yi remained silent, Wu Zheng couldn't help but hammer away at the cases in front of him.

"The killing of Marquis Liu on the eleventh day is not enough to avenge our Han people!"

Liu Yi looked at Wu Zheng with a wry smile at this time, "Do you know that even this eleven-day killing will be criticized by virtuous writers..."

In fact, Liu Yi has not finished speaking. Not only the virtuous literature, but also Tian Guangming advocated appeasing the Di people and opposed the method of killing the surrendered Di people.

Wu Zhengdao: "It's those rotten scholars again, they will be the ones who will harm my strong man tomorrow!"

Liu Yi was shocked when he heard this, "Wu Jun said carefully..."

Wu Zheng shouted: "How can Naigong be afraid of those rotten scholars..."

Liu Yi sighed and said: "Wu Jun knows that because of your merits in this battle, you should be granted the title of a prince. If you offend those people at this time, the titles of these princes may be like running water..."

What Liu Yi didn't say was that now that the emperor was trying to regain power from Huo Guang, it was time to rely on virtuous literature. The situation in Chang'an was already very different from previous years.

For the sake of power, the emperor has become closer and closer to virtuous literature, and is no longer as repellent as he was in previous years.

Even Du Ling's position in Chang'an was already unstable.

In order to win over virtuous literature, the position of the Library's Academic Director was almost taken away by the emperor.

Although due to the opposition of Huo Guang and Che Qianqiu, Du Ling still held the post of academic director of the library, Zhang Kun was deprived of his position as doctor of the library.

Wu Zheng sneered, "How can I care about the position of this prince...Does Liu Hou still remember the poisonous Darabidan?"

How could Liu Yi not know about the Darobid people? He was the one responsible for communicating with the Darobid people in the first place.

Wu Zheng continued: "If we follow the practices of those rotten scholars, the fate of a certain Darobida people today will be the fate of the Han people tomorrow..."

Wu Zheng's words immediately convinced Liu Yi.

Liu Yi stood up suddenly and said, "Wu Jun, do you dare to do something?"

Wu Zheng asked: "What's the matter?"

Liu Yi took Wu Zheng to the map, pointed at two places and asked, "Does Mr. Wu know these two places?"

Wu Zheng looked at the map carefully and replied: "This is the home of Lueyang Di and Baima Di!"

Wu Zheng suddenly realized: "Liu Hou wants to attack these two places?"

Liu Yidao: "Yes, but the Di people have surrendered now. Attacking these two places may be a serious crime... Do you dare to do it?"

Wu Zheng sighed, "A certain person is also a son of the Han family, and he avenges the Han people... Why should he be afraid of a mere accusation!"

Liu Yidao: "If Mr. Wu does this, he may lose his position as a prince..."

Wu Zheng looked at Liu Yida and said: "The position of a mere prince...what a pity?"

Liu Yi nodded, "Such a person should hold back Tian Guangming and others, so you should act quickly..."

Wu Zhengdao: "Good!"

After the two people discussed it, Wu Zheng immediately led his troops and horses to leave the camp and go to Di's lair in Lueyang.

…

Shortly after Wu Zheng led his troops and left, Tian Guangming went to Liu Yi's tent again to persuade Liu Yi to withdraw his orders.

"Isn't it inappropriate for the prince to act like this?"

Liu Yi laughed when he heard this and said, "What do you think is wrong?"

Tian Guangming said: "90% of the people in Wudu and even Longxi are Di people... Although the rebellion has been quelled now, after we withdraw our troops, this place will still belong to the Di people..."

"If we carry out eleven massacres, the Di people will definitely hate the Han people. I am afraid that this land in Longxi, the military capital, will never have peace..."

Liu Yi heard this and asked, "How do you think I should act?"

Tian Guangming said: "We are close to Sanfu in Wudu... Should we treat the Di people mainly to appease them?"

Liu Yi sneered, "Do you know how many Han people died at the hands of the Di people during this rebellion?"

Tian Guangming said disapprovingly: "Those who died are just some common people in Guizhou... As long as the Di people can be pacified... the monarch will have done a great job!"

Liu Yi laughed when he heard this, "The more than 50,000 Han people who died are just two words in the public's mouth..."

Tian Guangming said: "Fifty thousand Han people are indeed a lot, but as ministers of the court, we should know how to measure..."

"Fifty thousand Han people are nothing compared to the stability of Wudu Longxi..."

Liu Yi suppressed the anger in his heart and asked: "How should we treat the Di people who are causing trouble?"

Tian Guangming said: "Of course, the main purpose is to appease, and to give more rewards to the leaders of the Di people... and then divide them and win them over... This should ensure the stability of the place!"

Liu Yi laughed, "So, how will someone deal with the 50,000 Han people who died..."

Tian Guangming pretended to be sad and sighed: "If you are serious about it, you can arrange people to bury them..."

Liu Yi chuckled and asked: "Just deal with it like this? Then what should we do with the land and houses they left behind?"

Tian Guangming said: "Half of this land is used to appease the Di people...the remaining half can be sold for military supplies..."

Liu Yidao: "Gongzhen is a good businessman... Don't you feel guilty in your heart?"

Tian Guangming was stunned when he heard this: "Why did you say this?"

Liu Yi could no longer suppress the anger in his heart at this time, "Go away, those 50,000 Han people are all brothers of a certain person... I should avenge him..."

Tian Guangming was shocked when he heard this. He stared at Liu Yi, cupped his hands and said, "You should do your own thing!"

Tian Guangming then left Liu Yi's camp and returned to his residence. Tian Guangming immediately wrote to the emperor to impeach Liu Yi.

How could Tian Guangming's actions be hidden from Liu Yi?

However, Liu Yi didn't care and immediately ordered the killing to be carried out immediately.

Soon seven thousand Di people were drawn out, and many leaders of the Di people's tribes also won the death lot.

When Tian Guangming heard that among the people who had drawn the death lot were the nominal Di leader Shamala Yi and the most powerful Lueyang Di leader Fu Geng, he hurriedly ran to stop them.

"The sword will save people...the sword will save people..."

Tian Guangming led his men and rushed to the execution ground with shouts.

"Liu Hou, you can't kill Samarayi and Fu Geng!"

Liu Yi snorted coldly: "These two thieves are the chief offenders of the riot, why can't they be killed?"

Tian Guangming shouted: "If Liu Hou kills these two people, I fear that the military capital will never have peace!"

Wu Ma Shijian, who was holding the gold, had just arrived at the place of execution. When he heard this, he was surprised and said: "Why did Mr. Tian say this?"

Tian Guangming said: "Zhi Jinwu, please advise Liu Hou, Samara Yi and Fu Geng cannot be killed!"
