Liu Ming and Liu Mingzhi looked at Cheng Kai, who had also reacted in shock, and raised his hand to point at Xia Gongming.
Cheng Kai looked at Liu Mingzhi's military movement orders and immediately walked towards Xia Gongming who was surrounded by hundreds of officials under the dragon pillar.
"General Cheng, what are you going to do? Death is the most important thing. Do you still want to whip Mr. Xia's corpse?"
Looking at the young and backward official standing in front of him, Cheng Kai pushed him aside with helplessness and walked straight towards Xia Gongming.
Seeing Xia Gongming's forehead covered with blood and his eyes closed tightly, Cheng Kai bent his fingers to test Xia Gongming's breathing, exhaled softly, and shook his head at Liu Mingzhi.
This shaking of the head does not mean that Xia Gongming is dead, but that Xia Gongming is not dead and is still alive.
Liu Mingzhi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Cheng Kai's actions, and waved his hand to signal Cheng Kai to carry Xia Gongming down for treatment.
"Go to the Imperial Hospital to find Mr. Chu Renxinchu, and bring Mr. Lao here for treatment!"
"Got the order!"
"Zhai Fang, Yang Duo, you two come and help me."
"Yes, General!"
Two tiger generals walked out from the palace gate and walked towards Cheng Kai. Then they picked up Xia Gongming and rushed out of the palace.
Liu Mingzhi watched the three men carrying Xia Gongming away and breathed out softly.
The human head is so hard that if it is hit and killed immediately, it only exists on TV.
In reality, coma will definitely occur, and the chance of death on the spot is extremely small.
Liu Mingzhi only understood this truth later when he was used to life and death. Otherwise, Liu Mingzhi would not have been in such mixed emotions when the master and servant of Yunqing Shi committed suicide by hitting a pillar.
No matter how pedantic the old man was and how much he opposed criticizing himself, Liu Mingzhi retained the highest respect for his personality.
First of all, Xia Gongming is not a heinous and evil person.
In the final analysis, it's just that the two of us have different positions.
Secondly, Xia Gongming must not die under his own persecution, otherwise even if he sits on this chair, he will only be superficially different from the officials and former colleagues below him.
They may have no choice but to give in to their own threats, but they will never obey their orders wholeheartedly.
At least for now, Dalong still can't do without them.
As Li Ye said in the past, it will take time to change the officials above the court.
If Dalong's current situation is to be stabilized under his own troops, he cannot do without the management of these old men for the time being.
I have been in the temple for more than ten years, and I have been in charge of military affairs in northern Xinjiang for several years. I have already been influenced by my ears and my eyes. I have been influenced by the ways of being an official for a long time. It is no longer possible to be as oriented as killing when I was young and full of blood. .
Killing is, after all, just the last resort.
Liu Mingzhi did not deny that treating the fainted Xia Gongming was his first step to win people's hearts.
He must let the officials below see hope.
They can see clearly that although they are rebels and usurpers, they are not murderous people. Let them understand that as long as they are honest, they will still be reused and enjoy the same glory and wealth as before.
It's easy to conquer the world, but it's easy to sit in the world!
"Your Majesty, the little episode has passed, now you can continue writing.
Not to mention that there is only one Mr. Xia, even if all the officials in the dynasty are Mr. Xia, nothing can be changed in the end. "
However, Li Ye stared at Xia Gongming's 'corpse' being carried away outside the palace for a long time, and never picked up the ink pen he placed on the inkstone.
After being silent for a long time, Li Ye's expression gradually calmed down, and he looked at Liu Mingzhi quietly. Under Liu Mingzhi's surprised gaze, he slowly lowered the Shang Fang Zhanma Sword from his waist and stuffed it into Liu Mingzhi's palm.
"Uncle, please kill me!
I have figured it out. Mr. Xia is right. I am the bloodline of Emperor Taizu Gao, and the current emperor is the orthodox king in the world.
Since there is no way to escape misfortune, now we have no choice but to follow the example of our father and die in the country!
If my death can save the face of the Li family.
Even death is worth it!
Please uncle, do it! "
Liu Mingzhi stared blankly at Li Ye, who suddenly changed his attitude, and looked down at the familiar Shang Fang horse-killing sword that Li Zheng had given him during Qingzhou's disaster relief work.
Familiar and strange.
Staring blankly at Li Ye calmly going to his death, Liu Mingzhi's hand holding Shang Fang's horse-killing sword trembled.
The blood oath that his father, Emperor Li Zheng, made in the past still lingers in his mind.
My son, Liu Mingzhi, swore an oath today on behalf of the ancestors of the Liu family that he would not use weapons against the Li clan for the rest of his life... It would be contrary to this oath... ..The descendants of the Liu family will never have peace.
Liu Mingzhi didn't know whether such things as oaths would really come true, but the words "God is there when you look up three feet", and the words "Liu Zhi'an" on the palace wall said that his feet were on the seven stars and his destiny was fulfilled, made Liu Mingzhi not sure. Mingzhi hesitated.
destiny!
Is there really a destiny in this world?
"You...really not afraid of death?"
Li Ye shook his head without hesitation: "Of course I am afraid of death, but I would rather die with more justice.
If I could die without having to see the six hundred years of Li family's foundation destroyed in my child's hands, my child would rather die!
In this way, the child at least still has the dignity to meet his father and grandfather, and the dignity to meet the ancestors of the Li family. "
Liu Mingzhi tremblingly pulled out Shang Fang's horse-killing sword and silently placed it on Li Ye's neck. The cold blade made Li Ye, who was ready to die generously, still shiver involuntarily.
After taking a few gentle breaths, Li Ye swallowed a few saliva and silently raised his head.
"Move...do it!"
The officials watched every move of the two people on the dragon stage and bowed with sad expressions.
"His Majesty!"
The Empress Dowager Nangong Meng, who was blocked outside the palace by the six guards of the New Army, choked up in confusion and cried out sadly: "Mingzhi, no!"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Li Ye hesitantly, and the Shang Fang horse-killing sword in his hand trembled slightly.
"You really don't want to write?"
Li Ye did not speak, but showed his determination with actions.
His neck took the initiative to move towards the cold blade, and a trace of bright red blood flowed along the blade of Shang Fang's Zhanma Sword to the tip of the sword, slowly dripping onto the dragon platform.
"Of course I am afraid of death, but I will never lose my identity or lose the face of the Li family that has lasted for hundreds of years because of my fear of death.
Do it! Do it! Do it! Uncle, please move..."
"Rebellious officials and traitors, take your life!"
A deafening voice came, and then a sharp sword light pointed directly at Liu Mingzhi's heart.
Liu Mingzhi's expression changed sharply. He put away Shang Fang's horse-killing sword and raised his hand to slap the dragon case. The sky sword flew up and cut straight into Liu Mingzhi's hand.
The sword flipped around a few times and was blocked by Liu Mingzhi at a vital point on his chest using the crook of his left arm.
When a loud bang came, Liu Mingzhi took two steps back, staring with a cold face at the long sword that the man in black robe in front of him struck at the Heavenly Sword in his hand.
Enduring the discomfort of his right hand, Shang Fang swung the horse sword over and shot directly towards the face of the man in black robe.
Sensing something bad, the man in black robe flipped around in the air and managed to avoid Shang Fang's sharp killing move of the horse-killing sword. Liu Mingzhi's right hand, which was condensing his energy, smacked the man in black robe in the face.
The man in black robe had a look of horror in his eyes. He retracted his sword and flew away, using his strength to avoid the oncoming killing move again.
The man in black robe flipped twice in the air, fell to the ground and took a step back before stopping.
The eyes under the cloak looked at Liu Mingzhi in astonishment, who was standing on the dragon platform and holding the heavenly sword, staring at him coldly.
"First...Xian Qi, you made a breakthrough!"
Liu Mingzhi looked slightly regretful as he watched the film master avoid his fatal moves twice.
"Shadow Master! Long time no see!"
I'm standing in front of you. How do you think this king looks like before? "
"You...how could you break through Xiantian to this level so quickly?"
"Haha... Then I really have to thank you for your fatal move, which allowed me to escape into the realm of neither destruction nor establishment!"
