Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

If it is done well, it may be possible to beat Li Qiu into the ranks of Fan Xing and his like, so that the prestige he has accumulated among the people will be exhausted.

However, when the common people were talking about it and these gentry children were sharpening their knives, Li Qiu on the stage unexpectedly grabbed Fan Xing by the neck.

Then, with anger, he took Fan Xing, who was tied up, in a rather rough manner.

This scene attracted applause and cheers from tens of thousands of people in the audience.

Looking at these simple people who were maliciously instigated and didn't know the truth, Li Qiu sighed slightly in his heart.

Then he said loudly: "Fan Xing, the governor of Suizhou, was greedy for life and afraid of death, so he abandoned the city and fled."

"Not to mention the surrender of Suizhou City to the Turks, thousands of soldiers and tens of thousands of people in the city were also killed in the hands of the Turks!"

"Just such a scum, death [-] times is not enough to calm the hatred in my heart, how can I let him live?!"

Listening to Li Qiu's words, the group of gentry children mixed in the crowd couldn't help being stunned, and a look of disbelief flashed in their eyes.

And the group of common people became more fanatical and cheered following Li Qiu's words.

Some people spread rumors before, saying that Lord Li Qiu wanted to protect the traitor Fan Xing. Looking at it now, this is definitely a slander to Lord Li Qiu.

How can a great hero of my Tang Dynasty like Mr. Li Qiu speak well for someone like Fan Xing? !

At this time, Li Qiu went on to say: "This Fan Xing is afraid and wants to die."

"Half a month ago, he committed suicide in prison in fear of crime, but he failed."

"And the imperial court and His Majesty will also punish Fan Xing with capital punishment, so as to serve as an example to others!"

"However, I tried my best to stop it."

Hearing Li Qiu's words, the gathered people frowned.

"A scum like Fan Xing, a traitor, what do you want him to do, my lord?"

"Yeah, Mr. Li Qiu, why didn't the court kill him directly?!"

"Since he is going to commit suicide, let him die quickly, why save him?!"

At this moment, Li Qiu threw Fan Xing under his feet, with a lot of force, Fan Xing who was bound by five flowers couldn't get up, quite embarrassed.

"For a person, it is easy to die, but it is difficult to survive."

"The crimes committed by Fan Xing are too numerous to record, and the laws of heaven cannot tolerate it."

"If it is so simple to let him die, wouldn't it be too cheap for him?!"

"Think about it, everyone, those soldiers of my Tang Dynasty who died tragically at the hands of the Turks, the people of my Tang Dynasty, especially those women and children who were eaten alive by the Turks as two-legged sheep!"

"They died miserably!"

"And all of this was caused by Fan Xing!"

"He wants to die so easily? He doesn't deserve it!"

"So, I personally petition His Majesty to exile Fan Xing for three thousand miles to Youzhou City, where the conditions are the most difficult."

"Let him face the direction of Suizhou City every day, kneel on the city wall, and suffer and suffer."

"Being reviled by the world."

"Wait until one day, when my army from the Tang Dynasty enters Mobei and wipes out the last survivor of the Turks, I will kill Fan Xing there."

"In honor of all the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who have died, the spirits of the people in heaven!"

Speaking of this, Li Qiu suddenly knelt down facing the direction of the imperial city, and said in a loud voice: "I, Li Qiu, swear here today that within ten years, I will wipe out that Turk!

"May the souls of all the soldiers and people who died tragically at the hands of the Turks rest in peace!"

"I also pray that the heavens will have spirits to help me fulfill my long-cherished wish!"

The great wish Li Qiu made and the oath he made were sincere and full of compassion for the soldiers and people who had died at the hands of the Turks, as well as the incomparable hatred for the Turks in their bones.

His feelings also touched the hearts of too many people present.

Thinking that those who died were all his father, husband, and son, the people present couldn't help but burst into tears for a moment.

With a plop, he fell to his knees.

An old woman, kneeling on the ground, couldn't help thinking of her husband who had just died in battle, "Old man, today is the sixth year since you died in battle. If you really have a spirit in heaven, follow General Li Qiu, Destroy that Turk..."

A woman cried with tears and endless thoughts: "My son, you were only 16 years old, and you died tragically at the hands of that Turkic man."

"Mother knows that you died miserably, but mother has no ability to do anything for you."

"But did you hear that, Mr. Li Qiu vowed to kill that Turkic man to avenge you!"

A little boy who was twelve or thirteen years old also knelt on the ground, and said firmly in his eyes: "Father, Goudan will grow up soon, and he will be able to go to the battlefield soon."

"I want to follow Lord Li Qiu to fight against the enemy, kill all the Turkic people who killed you, and avenge your father."

Speaking of this, the child still failed to maintain his strength in the end, and suddenly wiped away his tears and cried, "Father... after you left, mother also left."

"I'm the only one left in this world, I miss you and mother so much..."

……

For the scene in front of them, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wang Gui, Wei Zheng and others who had been in the distance all the time also saw it in their eyes.

Compassion appeared in the same eyes.

And Li Shimin, who was on the high wall of the imperial city, also felt guilty for the scene in front of him.

The common people in the world are like this, it is because of his dereliction of duty as the emperor!

At the same time, looking at Li Qiu, who had a firm gaze and vowed to kill all the Turks and avenge all the Tang soldiers and people, he felt both pride and pity in his heart.

Proud, because a father is proud to have such a heroic son.

Pity and self-blame, because he himself did not fulfill the responsibilities that a father should have.

When Li Qiu grew up, there was no figure or love for him as a father.

In fact, what is the difference between the current Li Qiu and the little boy who was crying and crying?

He walked helplessly along the way, and became so outstanding and outstanding, who knows how much suffering and suffering he has suffered behind the scenes!

Chapter 333 Return of the Samurai Xun

Li Qiu's unexpected move finally managed to quell public grievances, and brought Fan Xing out of the prison of Dali Temple and into the Furong Garden.

After entering the middle house in Furong Garden, Luo Kexin had already led people to wait here.

Immediately ordered people to remove the shackles and shackles from Fan Xing's body.

"Master Fan, I heard my husband talk about you a long time ago."

"This time Master Fan was able to turn the danger into a bargain, which is really a blessing for the Tang military and the common people."

For Luo Kexin, Fan Xing hastily bowed respectfully, "Fan Xing, a criminal, how dare he be so ridiculously praised as a princess?"

"It's really not worthy."

At this time, Li Qiu said with a smile: "Fan Xing, your room has been arranged for you, and the banquet has been prepared."

"After dinner later, you can take a good rest."

"But before eating, let me show you something nice."

After speaking, Li Qiu took Fan Xing to the inner house, where the wall was being built.

Upon seeing the scene here, Fan Xing's eyes flashed extreme surprise and disbelief.

"My lord, are these city bricks?"

Li Qiu nodded, then picked up a city wall brick from the ground and delivered it to him.

"How about the quality of this brick first?"

Fan Xingben was a civic official who had attempted suicide and had been weak for days.

So this brick, which was as light as a sponge in Li Qiu's hands, almost made Fan Xing miss it, and almost failed to catch it.

This also made Fan Xing exclaim in surprise, "How can this brick be so heavy?!"

Afterwards, Fan Xing couldn't wait to beat and test the quality and firmness of this city wall brick.

The result was far beyond his imagination.

"My lord, Fan Xing has been thinking about how to defend the city, defend the people in the city, and repel the powerful Turkic enemies all his life."

"As for this wall brick, Fan Xing and others have also thought about it."

"However, the bricks I have seen are of poor quality, not strong enough, and the price is very high."

"Like this brick in the prince's mansion, it is simply unheard of."

"It's a pity that the cost will be extremely expensive, and it can only be used in the palace."

"If a city can be built with such city wall bricks, I really can't imagine what it will be like!"

At this time, Li Qiu put the city wall bricks in his hand back on the ground, "Actually, the cost of this kind of city wall bricks is not high."

"And in Youzhou, there is already such a city, built with these city wall bricks."

"When you get there, you will naturally be able to see it with your own eyes."

"That's why I tell you, if you are alive, you can see the day when we completely defeat the Turks!"

Luo Kexin also said seriously at this time: "I heard from my teacher Li Jing that Mr. Fan, you have a lot of experience in defending the city and how to deal with the Turks."

"Our Youzhou City has already been built, but the defense layout above it is still empty."

"This time, Master Fan will go to Youzhou to assist us, so we can rest assured."

……

Early the next morning, after a day's rest, Fan Xing embarked on the road to Youzhou under the escort of more than a hundred guards.

This is also the meaning of Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others. After all, Fan Xing's identity is too sensitive.

Every extra day you stay in Chang'an brings you more risk.

In order to avoid having long nights and dreams, I sent him away as soon as possible.

Along with Fan Xing were the first batch of graduates from Furong Academy.

These boys have reached the age of sixteen, and the girls have reached the age of fifteen, and it is time to leave Furong Academy.

Regarding their arrangement, Li Qiu also wrote a letter and handed it over to Zhang Yungu over there.

Men, let them directly participate in the work of Youzhou and other thirteen states.

After more than a year of training, these people can read and write, and also have some martial arts.

The most important point is that they are loyal enough, love the people enough, and work efficiently enough.

As for those girls, Li Qiu sent them back home, and their parents arranged for them to get married.

Among them, a few who no longer had family members were kept in Furong Academy to wait for follow-up arrangements.

Before leaving, these students bowed respectfully to Li Qiu and the teachers again, and bid farewell to the statues of the ancestors in the academy.

Many of them had tears in their eyes because they were about to leave Furong Academy, a place they would never forget for the rest of their lives.

For them, Li Qiu also taught them a lesson.

Tell them that although they graduated from Furong Academy today.

But they will always be the students of Furong Academy, the disciples of these teachers.

In the future, no matter where they go or where they go, their words and deeds will also represent the spirit and soul of Furong Academy.

No matter what, let them not do anything that would damage the reputation of the Academy in this life.

The honor of the academy requires them to do everything in their power to maintain it!

As for Li Qiu's teaching, it is also like a brand, deeply engraved in the hearts of every student.

In the afternoon of that day, Li Qiu, Wu Jue and others finally received the long-awaited good news.

That is Ying Guogong, the governor of Jingzhou, warrior Xun and his wife finally returned to Chang'an City.

Let me tell you here that the wife of the warrior Xun is Wu Zetian's biological mother.

It is the continuation of the samurai Xun after the death of his original wife (Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang brothers' mother).
