Chu Zhao asked, "I wonder who proposed this public trial policy?"
Li Dao replied, "It's just a whim."
Chu Zhao shook his head, "This can't be implemented on a whim."
Li Dao asked, "Is Master Chu interested?"
"convenient?"
"Of course it's convenient. The so-called public trial means a public trial, and everyone can watch."
"That's troublesome."
As a result, Li Dao changed direction and took a group of people to the center of Tiannan City.
...
Soon, the group arrived at their destination.
At this time, the public trial presided over by Xue Bing was underway.
As soon as they approached the public trial platform, a strong fishy smell spread into everyone's mouths and nostrils.
"Why is it so smelly? Why do we have to choose such a place for the public trial? Isn't this disgusting?"
Except for Chu Zhao, the others subconsciously covered their mouths and noses and frowned.
Li Dao said slowly, "You will know the reason later."
In order to satisfy their curiosity, the group finally endured and watched the proceedings of the public trial.
As time went by, the public trial proceeded in an orderly manner.
Every time Xue Bing makes a verdict, the surrounding crowd always applauds.
This scene made a group of people in Wenhua College couldn't help but nod.
"It seems like this remote place has some merits."
"But that's all."
"In my opinion, I am just an ordinary person who kills chickens to scare monkeys. It seems that I am very powerful, but in fact, it is just that."
Some people may have thought that Li Dao was young and even expressed their opinions.
In response, Li Dao smiled and didn't say much.
Soon, the public trial of this group of people ended.
"Is it gone? Then leave early, this place stinks too much."
Someone spoke up.
"Wait a little longer, the exciting stuff will come later."
Li Dao explained.
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and looked back, only to see those who participated in the public trial being escorted to the high platform one by one.
Later, some Futu soldiers wearing light armor followed with long swords on their waists.
For a moment, the atmosphere around the entire public trial platform became serious.
After sensing this, everyone who had been talking about it just now couldn't help but lower their voices.
Chu Zhao seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Li Dao subconsciously.
Li Dao nodded and didn't say much.
On the high platform, Xue Bing stood up, "Get ready for execution!"
After the words fell, the pagoda soldiers all pulled out their long swords.
Seeing this scene, the expressions of the people in Wenhua Academy froze.
Is it possible...
"cut!"
With a command, the long knife fell.
The next second, dozens of heads fell immediately.
The blood spurted out from the broken neck was three feet high, and the smell of fresh blood also emitted.
Suddenly, everyone understood why there was such a strong fishy smell before.
Especially when you see those red and white things flowing out of the gaps up close.
Everyone in Wenhua Academy turned pale.
"vomit!"
When they smelled the fishy smell again, many of them couldn't bear it anymore and vomited directly.
Seeing this scene, Li Dao's expression remained as usual, as if he had expected it.
After all, how could a group of people living in the comfortable imperial capital ever see such a scene.
Chu Zhao couldn't help but said, "Governor Li has a good trick."
Li Dao shook his head, "Regardless of means, if they want to be officials in Southern Xinjiang, they must be mentally prepared. After all, Southern Xinjiang is not a good place."
With that said, Li Dao took the initiative to speak to a group of people in Wenhua College for the first time, "Do you know how many people are beheaded on this high platform every day?"
Hearing this, the group of people who had calmed down fell silent and just looked over.
"Hundreds of people! Sometimes there are even thousands of people, and this number may last for a long time."
Even though they were mentally prepared, some people still looked shocked.
After all, living in a place like the Imperial City where the death of a few people might cause a fuss, I have no idea what it feels like to have so many people die every day.
"Butcher......"
Someone couldn't help but whisper.
"Butcher?"
Hearing this, Li Dao smiled slightly at the person who spoke, "That's true, but the butchers don't kill as many as I do."
In the imperial capital, a group of people dared to talk back to the emperor.
As a result, after seeing Li Dao's indifferent eyes, for some reason, I couldn't say a word.
Every time they want to speak, they always feel a cold feeling on their necks, as if there is an invisible knife on their necks that will fall at any time.
"Okay, just kidding."
It wasn't until Li Dao smiled that the atmosphere relaxed a little.
"but......"
Li Dao then said, "But you'd better get used to it first. After all, one day you may stand on that high platform."
A group of people from Wenhua College said, "???"
"I'm talking about the person who gave the order."
"Of course, there may be some people who kneel down in the end. It depends on you."
"..."
...
Soon after, Li Dao led a group of people to the Governor's Mansion.
Along the way, Li Dao never heard any more discussion behind him.
He wanted a group of capable people to help him govern southern Xinjiang.
But the prerequisite is that these people must be obedient.
He doesn't want to be waited on by a bunch of uncles.
So far, the effect seems to be okay.
But he also knew that these people had only changed on the surface, but they still didn't know how to scold him in their hearts.
And then he wants to convince these people.
After returning to the Governor's Palace, Li Dao took these people to the outer palace and asked them to arrange their residence.
Before the external purge of southern Xinjiang is completed, these people will stay here temporarily for a while before they can take up their posts.
After arranging their residence, Li Dao gathered these people to sit in a courtyard.
At the main seat, Li Dao made a pot of tea, poured a cup for Chu Zhao beside him, and said, "Old Master Chu, I heard from Chen Yu that the Wenhua Academy where Old Master Chu is from likes to argue with each other very much?"
Chu Zhao shook his head, "It's just a verbal dispute between these gangsters, not a debate."
"A quarrel is a quarrel."
Li Dao turned back to look at the people in the courtyard, "I wonder if a rough guy named Li can argue with you in this quarrel."
Um!
Upon hearing this, the eyes of a group of people in Wenhua Academy suddenly lit up.
They had been oppressed by the scene of the public trial before, and they had a fire in their hearts with nowhere to vent. Unexpectedly, the person involved actually came to the door on their own initiative, and it was still at their best place.
On the side, Chu Zhao was also stunned by these words.
After coming back to his senses, he slowly said, "Governor Li, if you have any questions, you just need to give them instructions. Putting aside your temper, I can still vouch for them as officials."
Li Dao chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Old Master Chu. It's just that they will be officials under Li in the future. We just need to understand it in advance."
Seeing Li Dao's determination, Chu Zhao could only shake his head.
But he decided in his heart that if he found something wrong after a while, he would interrupt in advance.
pS: A slight transition and it will be over soon.
