When Zhao Shan heard Li Buyi's words, he mocked: "I didn't expect that you, Li Buyi, would be so strong-willed. But as I said before, you were once loyal to the court, and now you are following Zhao Rui's trend. How can you be so strong-willed?"
"I'm repaying the favor!"
Li Buyi couldn't bear it anymore.
He didn't bother to say anything on the tower, and he didn't respond quickly, but now he can't let Zhao Shan slander him.
Li Buyi said coldly: "The court wanted to kill me without mercy, but King Chu came to the rescue. Without King Chu, I would have died a long time ago. It is because of King Chu's rescue that I, Li Buyi, can survive. A drop of grace is like a spring. Repaying each other, let alone saving my life?"
Zhao Shan took advantage of the situation and said: "So, you are actually still loyal to the court, but you are only serving Zhao Rui because you are forced to repay your kindness."
Li Buyi did not give in at all, and said forcefully: "First, the ancestors of the Li family have been loyal to Daqian for generations. They have never been sorry to Daqian. On the contrary, they have sacrificed the lives of many Li family children for the country of Daqian."
"In my generation, I, Li Buyi, have been through life and death, and my body is scarred. As a result, Emperor Daqian has been sorry for me, and Daqian has been sorry for me. Why should I be loyal to Daqian?"
"Ever since the day he was framed by the eunuch and punished by the emperor, Li Buyi is no longer the Li Buyi he used to be."
"I will never be loyal!"
"Secondly, although I am no longer loyal to Da Gan, I have not served as an official, nor have I done anything to harm Da Gan. I live in seclusion in the countryside, and the Li family also lives a quiet life in the countryside."
"This time the imperial court went to war with the King of Chu. The King of Chu arranged for someone to find me and said it was time to repay the kindness, so I came out."
Li Buyi was on the tower before and was scolded by Zhao Shan.
There was no timely rebuttal at the time.
Now he retorted every word and said loudly: "From the beginning to the end, it was Daqian who failed me, the Li family, and it was Daqian who failed me, Li Buyi. Why do you, Zhao Shan, scold me? What do you mean by sycophants and two ministers? The sky is clear. The sun and the moon can serve as a guide, I, Li Buyi, will not surrender to you."
Zhao Shan was a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, Li Buyi would say such words.
Zhao Shan's mind changed and he continued: "Li Buyi, a gentleman does not care about his deeds, whether it is for the purpose of repaying kindness or for other reasons. As long as you join Zhao Rui's command and become an enemy of the imperial court, you are doing it for him." Zhao Rui's service is to fight against the imperial court."
"That's how everyone in the world judges it."
"No one is willing to waste time delving into your mental journey, and no one is leisurely enough to defend you."
"If you want to repay Zhao Rui, that's okay, but your repayment is on the opposite side of right and wrong."
"If Zhao Rui truly loves the people like his son and benefits countless people in Jingzhou, I can understand even if you become an enemy of the imperial court for him. Because under the premise of loyalty, there is a principle that the common people in the world should respect the emperor more than others."
"However, Zhao Rui killed and exploited the people in Jingzhou, and also supported bandits to cause trouble in the place, causing chaos in Jingzhou."
"My court has resettled the refugees and solved the sufferings of the people. It has long since changed the corrupt situation of the court in the past."
Zhao Shan said in a deep voice: "Abandoning the righteousness of the court, just from the perspective of the common people, I dare to scold you, and I dare to call you a treacherous minister. Could it be that you, a member of the Li family, have been studying for a lifetime and read about dogs?" Is it in your stomach? You want to repay the favor, is this how you repay it?"
brush!
Li Buyi's expression changed drastically.
He was scolded by Zhao Shan before, and he thought carefully about what to say to Zhao Shan before he could speak eloquently. Now he was refuted by Zhao Shan, especially Zhao Shan who used the argument that the people are the king and the people are the most important.
This is one of the Confucian classics.
Although Li Buyi comes from a family of generals and is also a scholar, he also understands these principles.
Li Buyi couldn't argue for a while.
Even so, Li Buyi has always had a strong character, he has always been willing to bend rather than bend, and he has always been a stubborn person. He was constantly suppressed and punished by Zhao Shan. He felt unhappy and said loudly: "Zhao Shan, no matter what you say, I, Li Buyi, will never surrender."
Zhao Shan said: "Do you mean that you would rather die than serve me?"
Li Buyi said: "Yes, I am not willing to die. In addition, I would like to reiterate that I am not loyal to Zhao Rui, but to repay the kindness. I, Li Buyi, act upright, how can I be loyal to the King of Chu?"
"well……"
Zhao Shan sighed and said: "If you don't eat the toast, you will have to drink wine as a penalty. It seems that you really have to deal with it."
Li Buyi frowned and said, "It's all up to you. I, Li Buyi, just don't obey you."
Zhao Shan smiled and said: "What a coincidence, I specialize in treating dissatisfied people."
Li Buyi snorted, not taking Zhao Shan's threat seriously. He took his life lightly when he went to the battlefield. Anyway, he was going to die. What would Zhao Shanneng do to him?
Want to be tortured?
He suffered.
Want to kill him?
casual!
Zhao Shan leaned forward slightly and said with a smile: "In view of your stubbornness, I decided to spread the news of your surrender to Xinye County and Jingzhou. After the news comes out, what do you think King Chu will do?"
brush!
Li Buyi's expression suddenly changed.
As someone who has been living in Jingzhou, Li Buyi knows who Zhao Rui is. When it's valuable, he will endure whatever you do. He was worthless and even stabbed Zhao Rui. Zhao Rui would definitely retaliate.
If news comes out about Zhao Shan, Zhao Rui will definitely be angry and implicate his family members. At that time, the old mother, wife and children at home will be affected.
Li Buyi's eyes widened angrily, and he shouted loudly: "Zhao Shan, it's not your wife and children's fault. You are shameless."
Zhao Shan said: "You are so strong-willed that you would rather die than give in. What can I do? Besides, you are my enemy. Once Zhao Rui is killed, your family will also be criticized and criticized by the world because of what you have done. Countless neighbors treat them coldly, even to the point of ostracizing and suppressing them."
"In that case, why not die early and be born early, and let Zhao Rui deal with them. Your family members are dead, and I will send you to meet them under the Nine Springs. What do you think?"
Li Buyi was so angry that his eyes were splitting, and he shouted loudly: "Zhao Shan, you are so shameless, you are a devil!"
Zhao Shan continued: "I am the devil. As long as I am an enemy, I will never show mercy. I only agree with one sentence, treat your own people as warm as spring. Treat your enemies like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, without any mercy." "
"Li Buyi, remember clearly, you are my prisoner."
"Being a prisoner must have the consciousness of being a prisoner."
"Prisoners must know what will happen to them."
"Everything now is your own choice. You ask for kindness and get kindness. What else is there to say? Could it be that you would rather die than surrender, vowing to be my enemy to the death, and you also want to serve me with good food and drink? , Do you still want to provide for you?"
"You think so beautifully!"
Zhao Shanwei narrowed his eyes and said, "I gave you a choice. You must be clear, I didn't use Zhao Rui's hand to kill your family members, you killed your relatives yourself."
Li Buyi's heart pounded when he heard this, his legs went limp and he collapsed on the ground, lost in thought. After a while, Li Buyi looked up at Zhao Shan with a look in his eyes that was filled with awe and fear, but also with a hint of deep desire.
