Xi Yu accused coldly: "Until now, he has no attitude of admitting his mistake."
When Mrs. Fang heard this, she became more anxious and knelt down again, grabbed Xi Yu's leg tightly, and cried and said, "Sir, I am willing to bear any guilt on my son no matter what."
Seeing this, Lei Bo hurriedly shouted: "Mother, stop talking, one person does things and one person does it. This matter has nothing to do with his mother."
His eyes were full of stubbornness and determination. Although he knew that he was in great danger, he still did not want his mother to suffer for him.
On the other side, Linglong is now the leader of the Huang family.
In private, several servants gathered together and began to discuss.
"The Huang family's current affairs must have something to do with Linglong." A servant whispered.
"Yes, but we can only talk privately, and no one dares to say such things in front of Linglong." Another servant quickly agreed, with a cautious look on his face.
Although their discussion was low, they also revealed their curiosity and speculation about the changes in the situation in the Huang family.
At this time, Linglong was completely unaware of the discussions of the people and was focusing on handling the affairs of the Huang family, showing her courage and intelligence.
On the other hand, after receiving Xi Yu's letter, the king of Anxi Kingdom immediately wrote a reply and attached a portrait of Princess An's character Linglong.
On this day, the letter was served at the transit.
When sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gan Mei collected the letters on his behalf.
She told the soldiers who delivered the letter: "The Prime Minister has been out for many days and I don't know when he will come back."
After hearing this, the soldier looked embarrassed. Gan Mei saw his concern and said, "Don't worry, when the Prime Minister comes back, I will submit the letter to him as soon as possible."
The soldier had no choice but to bow and leave.
In the field where Xi Yu is located, he is standing up to beg for mercy for Lei Bo.
"Prime Minister, I know Lei Bo very well. He is a person with a temperament. In the past, everyone in the village looked down on him, but he was just confused for a moment. In addition, his father died and his heart was particularly sad, so he did such a wrong thing. I hope the Prime Minister will be kind to you."
After Li Zheng finished speaking, many villagers began to beg for mercy for Lei Bo.
When Mrs. Fang saw this scene, she was very excited and tears came out again.
She kept kowtowing to Xi Yu, hoping that the Prime Minister would spare Lei Bo's life.
Xi Yu stared at Lei Bo. So many people were pleading for him, but Lei Bo still looked proud, as if he didn't take everyone's kindness to heart at all.
"Lei Bo, do you really think you are not at fault? So many people plead for you, but you are so stubborn, don't you know how to reflect?" Xi Yu's words were filled with a hint of anger.
Lei Bo raised his chin slightly, and his eyes revealed stubbornness: "I am right, you are wrong. My father died because of you, and it is natural for me to take revenge."
Xi Yu frowned, he didn't expect Lei Bo to be so stubborn.
The villagers around also shook their heads, worried about Lei Bo's stubbornness.
Mrs. Fang was even more anxious. She knelt down in front of Xi Yu again and said in tears: "Prime Minister, please spare my son. He was just blinded by hatred and will definitely reform himself in the future."
Xi Yu looked at the villagers who begged for mercy indignation and thought to himself: No one understands what he means so far? The key to this matter is not himself, but Lei Bo.
Li Zheng is worthy of being a keen mind, and he immediately understood the meaning of Xi Yu.
He quickly turned around and said to Lei Bo, "Lei Bo, the Prime Minister is willing to let you go. The key is whether you confess your guilt. This just requires an attitude."
Lei Bo was slightly stunned, and the proud look on his face loosened a little.
He bit his lip and fell into deep thought.
Seeing this, Mrs. Fang quickly struck while the iron was hot and said to Lei Bo crying: "Son, confess your guilt quickly and don't be stubborn anymore. As long as you admit your mistake, the Prime Minister will definitely spare you." The villagers around also persuaded Lei Bo, hoping that he could let go of his stubbornness and admit his mistake to the Prime Minister.
Lei Bo's heart began to shake. He knew that his behavior was indeed impulsive, but the stubbornness in his heart made it difficult for him to bow his head easily.
However, looking at the expectant eyes of his mother and fellow villagers, he couldn't bear to let them down.
After a fierce ideological struggle, Lei Bo finally lowered his head slowly, finally admitted his guilt, and whispered: "It's all my confusion for a while."
Of course, Xi Yu knew in his heart that he did not really admit his guilt, but it would be enough to have such an attitude.
So, Xi Yu said, "Although Lei Bo committed a heinous crime, fortunately he did not cause any major disaster. This Prime Minister can forgive him, but if there is another time, he will definitely not let him go."
When everyone heard the news, they felt relieved, especially Mrs. Fang.
She cried with joy and kept kowtowing to Xi Yu to thank him.
The tension in the fields finally eased.
Xi Yu looked firm and said solemnly again: "I will definitely catch the bandits so that everyone will no longer be worried." His words were loud and echoed in the fields.
When everyone heard this, they all showed gratitude and thanked the Prime Minister in unison: "Thank you, Prime Minister! We will feel relieved if you have this sentence from Prime Minister."
After Xi Yu left, everyone gradually dispersed.
Mrs. Fang stood there and felt that her clothes were almost wet. It was sweat caused by tension and worry.
Lei Bo looked at his tired mother and said guiltily: "It made my mother worry."
Mrs. Fang sighed and said, "Son, don't do such stupid things again in the future."
Lei Bo was also a little scared at this moment. When he recalled his impulsive behavior, he felt full of regret.
He assured his mother: "Don't worry, I will never do this again in the future."
Lei Bo suddenly proposed: "Prepare the wine and food, and invite the Prime Minister to come for dinner tonight."
When Mrs. Fang heard this, she was very happy. This proved that her son had really turned around.
She quickly said, "Since that's the case, then you go and invite it."
Lei Bo nodded and said, "Mother is preparing wine and food, I will go and carry the thorns to apologize for the Prime Minister."
Lei Bo came to the Prime Minister's Mansion with a nervous mood and expressed his intention to come to Xi Yu.
Seeing Lei Bo so sincerely, Xi Yu agreed and said, "The evening must be over."
Lei Bo was overjoyed and hurried back to tell his mother the good news.
When Mrs. Fang learned that the Prime Minister agreed to come, she immediately became busy and prepared a sumptuous wine and food.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Sun Shangxiang suddenly missed his mother Wu Guotai a little.
The deep thoughts surged into her heart like a tide, making her thoughts of returning home stronger and stronger.
She was full of thought of going back to Jiangnan, visiting her mother whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and feeling the familiar warmth and care.
However, now that Xi Yu is not at home, Sun Shangxiang dares not leave without permission.
She knew very well that her identity was special and her every move could affect many aspects.
Entanglement and helplessness were intertwined in my heart, and in the end, Sun Shangxiang had to choose to write a letter.
She sat at the table, picked up her pen, and wrote down her longing for her mother one by one.
The beautiful handwriting is filled with the daughter's attachment and concern for her mother.
Sun Shangxiang expressed his longing, recent situation and helplessness in the letter, hoping that this letter could cross thousands of mountains and rivers and convey his feelings to his mother in the distance.
After writing the letter, Sun Shangxiang gently put down her pen, looked out the window, and silently prayed in her heart that she could meet her mother as soon as possible.
In Jiangnan, Wu Guotai's body is now much worse than before. The erosion of time has made her body weaker, but she still insists on worshiping Buddha every day in order to seek inner peace and comfort.
Sun Ce sent many people to take care of her, hoping to make her mother live a comfortable and stable life.
On that day, Wu Guotai received a letter from Sun Shangxiang, and a happy smile suddenly appeared on her face.
Wu Guotai couldn't wait to reply to her daughter in person. She asked the maid to bring paper and pen, trembled her hands, and wrote a reply letter in strokes.
She told Sun Shangxiang that she was good and told her daughter not to worry. She told her daughter that she missed her daughter and also told her to take good care of herself.
After writing the letter, Wu Guotai seemed to have accomplished a major task.
She handed the letter to the maids and asked them to send it out as soon as possible.
In the evening, Xi Yu came to Lei Bo's house for dinner.
Lei Bo originally thought that Ouyang Lian would come, but found that only Xi Yu was here.
So he asked, "Why didn't the governor come?"
Xi Yu said: "At that time, you only said you asked me to come, but you didn't let Ouyang Lian come."
Lei Bo patted his head and said in annoyance: "It's all my fault that I didn't think enough."
Mrs. Fang hurried out to smooth things over and said with a smile: "We are very honored that the Prime Minister can come. Please sit down, the meal is ready."
Lei Bo picked up the wine glass, stood up, and said sincerely: "Prime Minister, thank you for your extensive work today. I, Lei Bo, will definitely reform myself in the future and seek welfare for the people."
Xi Yu looked at Lei Bo, nodded slightly, and said, "I hope you can do what you say."
It was late at night that Xi Yu returned to his residence.
He looked at Ouyang Lian who was waiting here and said, "This place is gradually getting on track, but the news about the bandits has not yet fallen. According to my arrangement, the time for the secret guards to investigate has expired. But after all, the bandits are very cunning and it is indeed difficult to find their traces for a while."
Ouyang Lian frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "Prime Minister, the bandits are cunning, we may need to adjust our strategies. We can strengthen patrols from places where they may be present, or offer rewards to collect clues."
Xi Yu nodded and said, "What you said is reasonable. If the bandits are not eliminated for a day, the people will be in peace. We must find a way to catch them all as soon as possible."
The two continued to discuss ways to deal with the bandits in the room, and the lights swayed, reflecting their solemn faces.
But the next day, an exciting good news came over and finally learned a secret stronghold of the bandits.
After hearing the news, Xi Yu immediately ordered Ouyang Lian: "Transfer soldiers from Fangjun to wipe out the bandits, but remember not to hurt any bandits."
Ouyang Lian received the order and replied immediately: "Yes, Prime Minister. I will go back and arrange it now."
After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry, preparing to mobilize troops to encircle and suppress the bandits.
Ouyang Lian was like a god general who came from heaven, and sent troops to encircle and suppress the bandits with the power of thunder.
Those bandits who were arrogant and domineering on weekdays were quickly captured one by one in front of Ouyang's elite soldiers and powerful generals.
Ouyang Lian did not dare to slack off at all and quickly took the bandits to the bottom of a remote mountain.
He reported to the Lord Xiyu as soon as possible.
So he turned over the horse, and the horse galloped away like an arrow, raising waves of dust.
At this time, Xi Yu was sitting in the palace, holding his chin with his hands, thinking about the future of the country.
Suddenly, Ouyang Lian's figure appeared at the door of the palace, and he reported to Xi Yu with excitement on his face the good news that the bandit was captured.
When Xi Yu heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes and a gratified smile appeared on his face.
He immediately decided to go to the scene in person to see what these bandits who harm the people looked like.
Xi Yu stood at the foot of the mountain, with a tall figure.
Ouyang Lian shouted to the bandits: "This is the Prime Minister, and you can't even polite!"
But the bandits just watched Xi Yu coldly, no one was moving.
Seeing this, Ouyang Lian glared at him and warned them again to be honest.
Xi Yu waved his hand gently, looking calm, indicating that it doesn't matter.
His eyes slowly swept across the bandits, without any reproach or disgust in his eyes.
After a long time, Xi Yu spoke, his voice calm and powerful: "I believe that you are all kind-hearted and have been forced to become bandits."
This sentence is like a warm spring breeze, gently blowing across the hearts of the bandits.
They were stunned at first, then looked at Xi Yu, the indifference in their eyes gradually faded, and replaced by a complex look.
Some people's eyes were moved, while others showed guilt.
At this moment, they seemed to see a glimmer of hope, a glimmer of hope to change their destiny.
Xi Yu looked at them quietly, waiting for their response, as if waiting for a sleeping seed, slowly awakening under the blowing of the spring breeze, blooming the flower of hope.
Xi Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, and his thoughts surged.
He knew very well that he was from the 21st century and had already been familiar with the skills of speech and sensationalism.
He cleared his throat, looked at the bandits with firm eyes, and said, "Everyone, some people are poor, not your fault, but my dereliction of duty, but my prime minister. I have been reflecting on how to make the people live a better life. Now, I vigorously develop agricultural greenhouse technology in Zhuping County so that everyone can live a good life."
His voice echoed in the mountains, carrying a compelling power.
The bandits listened quietly, with a look of surprise on their faces.
They never thought that this prime minister had such ambition and ambition.
Xi Yu continued: "Agricultural greenhouse technology can allow crops to grow in different seasons, increase yields, and increase everyone's income. I believe that as long as we work together, we will definitely make this land more prosperous and strong."
His words were like a spark of stars, igniting the hope in the hearts of bandits.
They began to whisper, their eyes flashing with anticipation.
Xi Yu looked at their reaction and felt full of confidence.
He knew that his plan had taken the first step, and next, he would lead these former bandits to a new life together.
Finally, in Xi Yu's words full of sincerity and hope, the bandits were deeply moved.
They all lowered their heads and looked ashamed on their faces.
One of the bandit representatives stood up and said in a hoarse voice: "Prime Minister, we are willing to reform ourselves and never do evil again."
戏煜听后,脸上露出了欣慰的笑容.
Ouyang Lian, who was standing beside him, looked at this scene and felt admiration for Xi Yu in his heart.
He sighed secretly that the Prime Minister's wisdom and mind are truly unmatched.
Xi Yu turned his head and said to Ouyang Lian: "Ouyang Lian, register them, and focus on observing them in the future to see if they repent."
欧阳连恭敬地应道:“是,丞相大人.”
Afterwards, Ouyang Lian began to register information for the bandits seriously.
The bandits were also very assigned to each other, and they knew that this was their chance to start over.
After registering, Xi Yu looked at the bandits again and said earnestly: "I hope you will cherish this opportunity and create a better future with your own hands."
The bandits nodded one after another, saying that they would work hard to correct their mistakes and become a new person.
Xi Yu looked at the bandits with a sharp look, staring at the bandits, and emphasized again: "There is something that must be clear. Who killed Lei Tianlong? Someone must stand up. The past can be ignored, but this matter must be investigated clearly. I have promised Lei Bo, so I must do it."
山贼们听到这话,顿时一阵骚动.
Several bandits began to look at each other, with uneasiness and tension in their eyes.
Xi Yu remained silent, just quietly observing their reactions.
With his keen ability to observe words and expressions, he already had some guesses in his mind.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and said slowly: "I know that this may scare some people. However, as long as you stand up bravely and admit your mistakes, I promise to handle this matter fairly and will not implicate innocent people."
The air seemed to have solidified, and the bandits were silent. Xi Yu knew that it would take some time and courage to give them this time.
He waited quietly, believing that the truth would eventually surface.
In the tense atmosphere, time seemed to have frozen. Finally, several bandits took a deep breath and walked out resolutely.
Their faces were determined and guilty, and their voices trembled slightly, "We killed Lei Tianlong, and we are willing to take responsibility."
Xi Yu looked at them, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes.
He nodded slightly, appreciating their courage.
Then, he turned to Ouyang Lian and said, "Send someone to take them away and deal with them according to law. But remember, be fair and fair, and do not abuse punishment."
Ouyang Lian took the order and left the scene with the bandits.
Seeing this, the other bandits also dispersed, and their hearts were filled with emotion and thought.
Xi Yu returned to the village non-stop and found Lei Bo.
Xi Yu looked at Lei Bo and said solemnly: "The murderer has been caught and has been put into prison."
When Lei Bo heard the news, he was stunned at first, and then he was so excited that he burst into tears.
He knelt down with a pounce and said gratefully: "Prime Minister, you are really Master Qingtian! Thank you for avenging my father."
Chapter completed!
