Tang Dynasty: The seventh rank of official residence, and you will be given the Ten Thousand People

In the hall where the green smoke curled up, it was eerily quiet for a moment.

The civil and military officials on both sides looked sideways, wanting to see Fan Xin's answer.

It is well known that Qianniuwei General Fan Liuzi is his right-hand man.

If he had killed him with his own hands, he would have been able to escape the charge of disobeying Jie Kang's decree.

But personal prestige will undoubtedly suffer huge losses.

I’m afraid it will be difficult to win over people’s hearts from now on.

Under the complicated eyes of everyone, Fan Xin took a step forward and said neither humble nor arrogant.

"Fan Liuzi is one of Chen's subordinates. Now that he has committed a serious crime, I will naturally kill him personally!"

"Okay, you are worthy of being the cornerstone of the law of the Tang Dynasty. With your words, I feel relieved!"

Li Longji was very happy when he took pictures of the big case, but in fact he didn't pay much attention to Fan Liuzi.

The reason why he launched an encirclement and suppression campaign was simply to use this opportunity to suppress Fan Xin's arrogance.

Now that the goal has been achieved, naturally there will be no further entanglement.

"King Yan said it lightly, who doesn't know that Fan Liuzi is your subordinate."

"What if you plan to execute someone fifty years from now? Who can wait until that time?"

Guo Yuanzhen said dissatisfied.

"Yes, King Yan, Fan Liuzi committed such a serious crime, you have to give everyone a time limit, right?"

Gao Lishi said with a smile.

Faced with the persecution of everyone, Fan Xin knew that they were asking for Li Longji.

He said immediately.

"Tomorrow at three o'clock at noon, I will personally behead Fan Liuzi in front of Yingtian Gate!"

"Your Majesty and all the princes will be able to attend the execution. Are you satisfied this time?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Xin flicked his sleeves and robe and strode away. Wherever he passed, all the officials stepped aside and stood with their heads bowed.

His Highness, King Yan, who is famous in the Tang Dynasty, is not something they can compete with.

Returning to Zhonglie Mansion, Fan Xin came to the Confinement Hall.

This is a place where people who make mistakes are punished, so the light is a little dim.

Several guards who were sitting at the table drinking saw the prince coming and hurriedly came up to greet him with clasped fists and a salute.

"How are these guys doing?"

"To be honest with you, the prince, the three generals have been making a fuss for a while and have just gone to bed."

Fan Xin nodded, came to the beam and untied the ropes for the three of them.

And asked the guards to bring them a table of good wine and food.

"Your Majesty, is it time for us to hit the road?" They were all battle-hardened old men. When they saw what Fan Xin meant, they knew that their end was coming soon. "

Fan Xin sighed and poured a cup of Sanle syrup for each of the three of them.

"This case is widespread and public resentment is boiling. The imperial court and His Majesty unanimously demand that you be killed."

"You are the people I brought out. After so many years of life and death, I really can't bear to let you die in the hands of a traitor."

"So I will personally send you on your way."

Hearing this, a dim look flashed across the eyes of Fan Liuzi and the others.

Then he forcibly cheered up, raised his glass, and said with a smile.

"That's all. Those of us died once during the battle at Fuqi City. It doesn't matter if we die again."

"You're right, isn't it just death? I have to tie my head to my belt on the battlefield. This time I can finally rest."

"Come on, do it!"

Putting down the wine cup, Fan Xin took a deep look at the three of them and said.

"I won't tie you up tonight. Have a good sleep and you will be free tomorrow."

Fan Xin couldn't say any more. They were all his brothers who followed him through life and death. It was more uncomfortable for him to kill these people with his own hands than to kill himself.

Instructing the three of them to go to bed early, Fan Xin left the confinement hall.

Outside the palace, hundreds of generals in armor knelt on the ground, saying nothing.

Princess Yinzhu, Princess Taiping, and Shangguan Wan'er stood aside and hesitated to speak.

Fan Xin knew what they wanted to say, but this huge case could not be saved. Even if it could be saved, how would he explain it to the people who drowned in the flood?

"You all should go back. Fan Liuzi has committed a heinous crime and must be executed. I have no way to save him."

"Your Majesty!"

"General!"

"Husband!"

"Fan Xin!"

Amid everyone's pleading, Fan Xin locked himself in the study with his hands behind his back, and did not even step out of the room no matter how many times he was called.

The night was long, the night breeze was gentle, and the courtyard was full of people.

Everyone looked at the study eagerly, hoping that Fan Xin would change his mind.

Fan Liuzi had a very deep relationship with them, ranging from Princess Taiping to the officers and men of the three armies, housekeepers and servants.

Everyone has a deep or shallow friendship with Fan Liuzi.

Now that I see Fan Xin trying to kill Liu Zi, I feel a little sad in my heart.

However, when they saw Fan Xin walking out wearing a python dragon robe, their hearts suddenly sank.

Fan Xin said coldly with a sullen face as his eyes swept over everyone.

"Come here, take the six sons to the Yingtianmen execution ground. I will serve as a warning to others!"

"Yes!" The eighteen personal guards bowed and agreed, walked into the confinement hall and escorted the disheveled Liuzi out.

As the middle door slowly opened, a group of guards armed with spears filed out, clearing the way to the execution ground.

Soon, people who came after hearing the news crowded the streets.

Just as Fan Xin was slowly moving forward in the prison van, there was a sea of ​​people in front of Yingtian Gate.

Looking at the dark crowd, Li Longji felt extremely happy.

After today, the world will know that there is only one person in charge of life and death in the Tang Dynasty.

That's him, Li Longji!

Boom boom boom!

With the sound of drums and the sound of whips, Gao Lishi came to him through the civil and military forces of the dynasty.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead with excitement on his face.

"Your Majesty, here we come. I saw with my own eyes that Fan Xin was escorting Liu Zi towards this side."

"It seems that he really intends to kill his subordinates."

Li Longji nodded with a smile.

"Just come, be sure to speak louder when you read the edict."

"Let all the subjects of the world hear what will happen to those who violate the laws of the Tang Dynasty!"

"Old slave obeys!"

While the monarch and his ministers were waiting, a team finally appeared at the end of the road.

The leader was none other than Fan Xin. In the prison car behind him, Liu Zi stood in prison uniforms.

Seeing this scene, the minister who had not believed it before finally put his heart into his stomach.

After a while, the team stopped at the foot of Yingtianmen. Fan Xin jumped off the black wind horse and said to Li Longji.

"Your Majesty, I have brought the six prisoners here as agreed. Do you want to execute them?"

"Don't worry, dig the Yellow River, 50,000 divine warriors were wiped out, and hundreds of thousands of people died tragically. Such a heinous crime must be exposed to the world."

As he spoke, he winked at Gao Lishi, who bowed slightly.

He took out an imperial edict from his arms and unfolded it slowly.

"Haotian has a destiny. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty said: Fan Liuzi, as a general of the Qianniu Guard, you should protect your family and country and serve with all your loyalty."

"I can't help but forget the kindness of the military and join forces with the likes of Wu Yong and Luneng."
