Chapter 47 forty six

Li Shimin walked to the table and picked up the blood book, and read softly: "Ten Strategies for Ping Hu." After reading the blood book, Li Shimin looked up at Fan Xin, and said with some emotion: "It's rare that you are so loyal. The temple prison still remembers the matter I entrusted you to do three years ago. I have already figured out the matter. Although you lost the city, it was to warn me. I decided to sentence you to travel three thousand miles. Let's go to Qianzhou." Changsun Wuji knew how difficult it was for Li Shimin to make the decision to let Fan Xin live. These days, dozens of petitions have asked Li Shimin to execute Fan Xin. Reinforcement, but the law is clearly written, the governor who lost the city must die.He urged from the side: "Fan Xin, quickly thank God!"

Fan Xin didn't thank you, he stood up, walked to the table, took a glass of water and drank it, turned around and said with a sad smile: "I know that the emperor doesn't have the heart to kill me, I thank the emperor, but if Fan Xin is like this Let's go. From now on, all the generals who guard the city can use the name of saving the people to betray the country and survive. Who will guard the territory for the Tang Dynasty? The matter you entrusted me to do, I have already done it, and I have nothing to worry about It's over. I won't let the emperor make things difficult for you..." Suddenly, he frowned, closed his eyes in pain, tilted his head to one side, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Ma Xuanliang stepped up to the lamp, raised his water glass and smelled it: "Your Majesty, he has taken poison!" Li Shimin's face was sad, and he burst into tears: "He walked like this so that I can have an answer to everyone, but how can I tell everyone?" Confess your heart!" At this time, there was a voice from a distance outside, Changsun Wuji asked: "What's the matter?" A guard went out to have a look, and came back to report: "Master, many scholars heard that Fan Xin is imprisoned here , and gathered at the door, and wanted to ask the court to kill him." Changsun Wuji was furious, and slapped his palm on the table, shaking the teapot on the table: "It's really endless, do you think the emperor is weak and can be bullied? Your Majesty , you quickly order all these troublemakers to be arrested, Fan Xin is dead, this place is just for them!"

Li Shimin put his hand on the wall and said: "I really want to do this, but there is one person who won't agree!" Changsun Wuji asked: "Who?" Li Shimin pointed at Fan Xin: "He! Look at Fan Xin's ten Dao Legacy Policy, the first nine Dao only have one word forbearance, he is telling me that everything must be tolerated. Not only for Hu Kou, but also for those ignorant people in the court!" Changsun Wuji After taking the suicide note and looking at it, I felt sad for a while, and stopped talking.Two guards carried a stretcher, Li Shimin bowed down, and hugged Fan Xin with tears in his arms: "Fan Xin, go on your way! Dugu Yanyun, who died in battle at the foot of Suizhou City, is my hero of the Tang Dynasty, and you are also my great hero." Don's hero."

The speaker had no intention, but the listener had the heart, Li Shimin's voice had just finished when he heard a heart-piercing cry from the opposite cell: "Wow!" Father has died in battle.Li Shimin stepped in without knowing it, and asked with a look of astonishment, "Why are you crying?" Dugu Mou wiped his tears and replied, "I am Dugu Yanyun's son." Humanity: "Why is Dugu Yanyun's son imprisoned here?" An accompanying criminal official replied: "He molested the princess." Li Shimin then remembered that there was a wicked young man who picked off Princess Ankang's golden hairpin and was ordered to be imprisoned by him. In death row.

Over there, Dugu Mou beat his chest and cried, "Father, you said that you would bring a good horse back to my son after beating Yunzhong. If there was a good horse, how could I lose to that bastard Chai Zhewei? If you don’t come back, what are you still doing in this world? Let me go with you!” As he spoke, he slammed his head against the wall, making a muffled “boom”, and several jailers rushed in to grab Dugumou.Dugu Mou struggled hard and shouted: "Let me die!" His strength was so great that he knocked several jailers to the ground. Li Shimin stepped out of the cell where Fan Xin was imprisoned, came to Dugumou, looked at him and said, "Hey, he is really a desperate man, let him go!" Then, Li Shimin drew a knife from Ma Xuanliang's waist and struck it on the ground. Tou: "Since you want to die, I'll let you do it. However, Dugu Yanyun died loyally for the country, he is an indomitable hero. And you, from this death prison to the Yellow Springs Road to chase your father, is to catch up with you." Why are you going to face him!"

Dugu Mou grabbed the waist knife and raised it into the air, then suddenly threw the knife, fell to his knees and grabbed the ground with his head, and said in great grief: "Father, my son has disgraced you!" Li Shimin glanced at Dugumou again, walked out, stopped when he was approaching the door, waved to Ma Xuanliang and said, "Let him go!" Outside the prison gate of Dali Temple, countless officials, soldiers, and common people gathered and were making noise. Suddenly, when the gate opened, Ma Xuanliang came out, and he said to the crowd: "Everyone, please go back, there is no need to shout here again. gone."

Someone was shouting: "If we don't kill Fan Xin, we won't leave!"
