Chapter 145: Not Killable
The more Qian Yueshan spoke, the less confident he became. Seeing Li Yunxing's face as dark as the bottom of a pot, he even lowered his head unconsciously, not daring to finish his sentence.
He is timid, he doesn’t want to die! Who in this world would be dissatisfied with a long life?
Qianyue Mountain is also afraid of death!
So he made an exchange with the robbers.
He bought his own way out with one hundred thousand taels of silver, and he believed that even Liu Zaifu would not blame him. After all, he also rescued King Zhaoyang.
"You mean, you told them to buy your life back with 100,000 taels of silver?" Li Yunxing finally laughed angrily, with a chill in his voice.
Li Yunxing's tone was extremely cold, and everyone standing behind him felt a cold current coming towards his face, making people shiver uncontrollably.
"What a loyal and courageous man who joined the army and sacrificed his life for righteousness! I really admire him very much!"
"Your Highness, please spare your life!"
Hearing the murderous intent hidden in Li Yunxing's words, Qian Yueshan immediately knelt down and kowtowed, his whole body shaking like chaff.
Li Yunxing's expression at this moment was extremely ferocious. Unexpectedly, Qianyue Mountain was not only bad, but also cowardly and embarrassing.
In order to survive, he actually agreed to such ridiculous conditions of those rebels, one hundred thousand taels of silver? It didn’t even matter whether Qianyue Mountain’s life was worth it?!
This is simply a big joke.
"Come here! Drag him out to me and chop him down!" Li Yunxing showed no mercy and waved the order directly without blinking an eye.
"No! No! Don't kill me! Your Highness, please spare your life! There are reasons for holding a humble position!" Qian Yueshan was still shouting desperately when he was dragged down.
Lian Jirou also stepped forward to stop Li Yunxing.
Qian Yueshan's expression changed and he squeezed out a few tears.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. The general is really having some difficulties."
"What's the reason? Is it because you don't know that someone in Jingzhou is rebelling, or is it because you embezzled Jingzhou's disaster relief food, or is it because you want to disregard the whole world!"
Li Yunxing's every word and every word of oppression left Qianyue Mountain speechless.
"The last general... the last general..."
"Okay, I really underestimated Jingzhou's participation in the army. A tall and dignified man turned out to be a deceiver and a thief. You have simply insulted the word loyal minister and righteous man. You have really lost the face of your ancestors!" Li Yunxing shouted angrily.
"I don't dare, the general. It's just that Jingzhou is a mixed bag of people and chaotic people." Qian Yueshan didn't want to be labeled by Li Yunxing, so he could only try his best to defend himself.
"So what? Jingzhou is also the territory of the Wu Dynasty. You actually dare to commit fraud under the governance of this palace. Are you tired of living, or do you want to treason and surrender to the enemy?"
The more Li Yunxing talked, the angrier he became, and finally he pulled out his sword and put it on Qian Yueshan's neck.
"Your Highness, spare your life! The general is really not committing any fraud. This... there is someone in Jingzhou who is rebelling. I have already reported it to the court!" Qian Yueshan hurriedly kowtowed and cried out for injustice.
Li Yunxing's eyes darkened, and his chest was full of anger, "You are about to die, and you still dare to deceive me? If I don't kill you today, wouldn't I be helping the evil deeds!"
"No! As for the memorial, Su Tianyang, the governor, had already handed it to Liu Zaifu, and it was Zaifu who said..."
"say what?!"
"Master Zaifu said that the refugees in Jingzhou are not something to be afraid of. Just to avoid disturbing the situation, we will stay put for the time being and wait until he finds out more before submitting a memorial." Qian Yueshan explained quickly.
This is what Ryu Jae-soo originally said to cut off the connection between Li Yunxing and the outside world.
It was necessary for these refugees to cause trouble in Jingzhou and make it so big that it could not be ended, so that Li Yunxing would be talked about and the emperor would be jealous and suspicious of him.
Only by losing the trust and favor of the monarch can the throne be easily obtained.
Li Yunxing sneered, "Liu Zhongqing is so cunning that he actually thinks he can control me in this way. Since he dares to hide it, he can't tell me!"
This is indeed what Liu Zhongqing would do. In order to go against Li Yunxing, he would not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of Jingzhou people, even Jingzhou officials.
In Jingzhou, rebels are allowed to do evil, and now they even dare to rob grain trucks. Liu Zhongqing is really a wolf with ambition, and he is very vicious!
However, regardless of whether Qian Yueshan has the intention to rebel, Li Yunxing will never allow him to stay in Jingzhou. This cancer must be eliminated!
"Your Highness, wait! I have something important to report to you in my humble position!" Qian Yueshan saw that Li Yunxing had decided to kill him, so he did not dare to hesitate any longer and hurriedly knelt down and said.
Li Yunxing looked at him sharply, "What else do you want to say?"
"I know that the granary in Jingzhou is empty this time, and the prince must want to solve this problem."
"Humble job... Humble job promised them to give them one hundred thousand taels of silver, which is actually an expedient measure."
"Prince, think about it, if I don't agree with my humble position, the gangsters will definitely attack King Zhaoyang, and I'm afraid they will harm King Zhaoyang. What's more, if I want to send silver, I will be able to recover the missing batch of grain and grass.
, then we can also catch all those crazy bandits in one fell swoop, which is the best of both worlds!"
"The lower official only agreed to their conditions because he only wanted to protect His Majesty the Emperor Wu."
Qian Yueshan spoke with righteous indignation and impassionedness, as if he had sacrificed his life for the country and died with exhaustion.
"You are really a loyal minister." Li Yunxing said sarcastically.
"His Royal Highness, I will never deceive Your Highness. Every word I say comes from the bottom of my heart. I only hope that His Highness, Your Highness, can give me a chance to make atonement for my sins! I am willing to fight a hundred battles and never give up. I will definitely get my money back."
That one hundred thousand shi of food.”
Qian Yueshan lowered his head and begged, his attitude was extremely humble.
"You'd better stop dreaming! Come on, what are you waiting for!" Li Yunxing was too lazy to listen to his nonsense and ordered coldly.
Qianyue Shan was immediately frightened and fell to his knees, wailing and begging for mercy.
Upon seeing this, Lian Jirou immediately dissuaded Li Yunxing, "His Royal Highness, don't kill him!"
Li Yunxing turned around, his eyes full of evil light, "Do I still want to keep such a scourge, waiting for him to make another mistake and plunge all the people in the world into water and fire?"
Lian Jirou glanced at Qianyue Shan who was lying on the ground.
If he dares to conspire with the rebels, it is absolutely impossible based on his courage.
Thinking about it, it was exactly what he said. He agreed to the one hundred thousand taels of silver in order to save his and Su Zhaoyang's lives.
She knew very well that Li Yunxing was already very angry and could not care much.
Lian Jirou gritted his teeth, mustered up his courage, and begged Li Yunxing: "Your Highness, please calm down! Since the evidence is now conclusive and all the soldiers in Jingzhou are present to testify, Qianyue Mountain's crime is self-evident."
Li Yunxing looked back at her, and Lian Jirou continued calmly, "But if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really beheads Qianyue Mountain to show the public, it will definitely chill the hearts of everyone in the world."
