One of them suddenly shouted:

"Hao Ran's righteousness is just a dead thing, not enough to prove it!"

"Criminal Li Huai'an, relying on his merits and arrogance to his master, killed innocent people indiscriminately, deceived the emperor and tried to rebel, he committed a heinous crime!"

"Also, beating important ministers and insulting the emperor in the hall is an extra crime!"

"Besides, if you don't obey the emperor's order and defect in court, you will be guilty of an unforgivable crime!"

"Soldiers from all walks of life are trying their best to arrest them, but they can act cheaply, regardless of life or death! This!"

"I remember the imperial decree announced at the gate of the city clearly!"

"Li Huaian! You can fool the heavens, but you can't fool His Majesty's eyes!"

The shocked people suddenly woke up.

That’s right, something like Haoran Zhengqi is a dead thing after all,

The way of heaven is high above, and everything in the world is just passing by.

How could the way of heaven know all the things in the world.

His Majesty rules the world, and nothing can be hidden from her eyes!

What His Majesty's imperial decree says is the truth!

Since Li Huai'an is called the God of Killing, he must have made a lot of contributions on the battlefield. If he hadn't committed a heinous crime, why would His Majesty want to kill him!

They were almost fooled by this hypocrite!

The crowd exploded loudly, and the onlookers cursed angrily.

All of a sudden, the streets were full of excitement.

Li Huaian looked at the people in front of him who were scrambling to spurn and insult him, expressionless.

Chi Xuanwang didn't know that these people were arranged by the Empress.

He looked at Li Huaian and said sarcastically:

"Look, this is the people's hearts you want to protect."

"This is the world you want to set your heart on, and this is the people you want to set your life on!"

Li Huaian glanced at him:

"At this point, you are still trying to break my belief."

With his faith shattered and Chi Xuanwang's integrity lost, he no longer had the extraordinary temperament he had before.

At this time, he looked haggard, haggard, and extremely embarrassed.

Without looking at Chi Xuanwang, Li Huai'an raised his head and sighed softly:

"It is precisely because the people are ignorant that I want to open a school to open up the wisdom of the people."

"The justice in this world should be in the hearts of all people, not in the hands of powerful families, nor should it be above the throne."

Chi Xuanwang was silent.

Looking at the changes that Li Huai'an has been vigorously promoting, he knows very well that Li Huai'an has almost achieved it.

Looking at the people in front of them who were gradually surrounded by Li Huai'an under the agitation of the crowd,

Chi Xuanwang smiled:

"So, how are you going to get out now? Kill all these people casually?"

Li Huaian frowned and remained silent.

Suddenly, in the turbulent crowd,

An old man squeezed out of the crowd with his granddaughter, and fell down in front of Li Huai'an with a plop.

The angry crowd fell silent for a moment.

The old man said to his granddaughter in a trembling voice:

"Ninny, kowtow to benefactor!"

When the little girl heard her grandfather's words, she obediently kowtowed to Li Huai'an a few times.

The old man looked up at Li Huai'an, then turned to look at the crowd around him, and said:

"The little old man doesn't have much knowledge, but he also understands the principle of repaying kindness."

"Back then, the officials who collected the grain tax were more greedy than the other. Two buckets of rice were handed over, but they couldn't be called one bucket!"

"It was another year of natural disasters, the harvest was not good, and after the food was paid, the little old man's family almost starved to death!"

"After General Li verified the matter, he killed all these corrupt officials at their own peril!"

"In the past three years, General Li has always remembered us small people, and sent people to check from time to time."

"Those corrupt officials never dared to stretch out their hands again, and that's why we little people have been fed for several years!"

The old man looked at his granddaughter and said:

"Back then, my granddaughter was almost starved to death! Thanks to General Li, she was able to eat well and grow up healthy."

"I don't care what others say, the General Li I see is a good man who cares about the people! Good official!"

A trace of relief flashed in Li Huai'an's eyes,

He smiled slightly, bent down, reached out and touched the little girl's head,

Helping the old man and the little girl up, he said softly:

"Old man, you are being polite, some trivial matters are not worth mentioning."

Hearing the old man's words, everyone looked at each other in silence.

Some things that were subconsciously ignored just now gradually emerged in their minds, becoming more and more clear.

After thinking about it carefully, many people suddenly found that

It seems that he has also been favored by General Li.

Everyone thought about it, and gradually became a little shaken.

Soon, another strong man came out and knelt down in front of Li Huai'an:

"The year before last, the dog officials forcibly bought more than ten acres of fertile land from my small family at a price far below the market price."

"It is also because General Li got rid of these corrupt officials that the villain can take back his own land."

"No matter what others say, General Li is my benefactor."

Chapter 13 I can't bear it, and I refute it every word

"I never had a chance before, but now, the little one kowtows to my benefactor here!"

After the strong man finished speaking, he kowtowed.

Everyone buzzed and discussed, and some even argued with each other because of their different opinions.

Driven by these two people, some people who remembered Li Huaian's kindness also stood up one after another:

"General Li, if it weren't for you, my daughter would have been forced by the son of the dog officer to become a housemaid! I kowtow to you here!"

"Thank you, General Li, for returning my son's innocence. There is no way to repay a big favor, and I can only kowtow to you a few times!"

"My son's exam results were almost replaced by someone else. Thanks to General Li, my son's future is saved. I ask General Li to be respected by the little old man!"

A woman couldn't help but speak:

"My man is an errand in the yamen. Under the orders of General Li, he arrested some people and beheaded them. He also ransacked the house with the officers and soldiers."

"I heard from him that the people General Li wanted to kill were all well-documented, and they were not wronged at all."

"He also complained to me that when the house was ransacked, there was no oil or water to be found. The money from the house raiding was used to buy food and distribute it to the common people or to pay the army."

Having said that, the woman smiled awkwardly:

"I also think that General Li is a good man and a clean official."

Hearing these words, everyone discussed:

"Yeah, think about it carefully, I have also received the kindness of General Li."

"Me too. To be honest, General Li really cares about us ordinary people."

"That's right, I thought those charges were a bit fake before, and it didn't seem like something General Li could do."

……

Seeing the reversal of the situation, under the secret order of the empress, the few people hiding in the crowd became anxious, and they started to incite the crowd again:

"Don't be fooled by these small favors! This is just his disguise!"

"These are all hypocrisy! Li Huai'an deceived the emperor, beat important ministers, insulted the emperor, disobeyed the emperor's order, and defected in court! These serious crimes are well-documented!"

"Otherwise, how could His Majesty arrest him throughout the city!"

After hearing this, everyone hesitated again.

They have no way to confirm the authenticity of these serious crimes,

But it is clearly written in the imperial decree, and it seems unlikely that it is a fake.

Ji Wushuang, who had been watching with cold eyes, could no longer bear it anymore:

"You people, don't you really know what General Li has done for Da Zhou these years?!"

"The barbarians invaded! The Chu State forcibly married! The border rebellion! Which time did not rely on General Li to turn the tide!"

Everyone was stunned and looked at each other.

Several people hiding in the crowd showed disdain.

This Mr. Ji is really naive. These major national events are too far away from the common people.

They didn't feel it personally.

What's the use of telling them these things, I really don't know what to say.

"General Li opened a school! Ming punishment! Who is it for? Is it for those powerful families?!"

Everyone started whispering.

The complexions of the few people hiding in the crowd changed slightly.

"General Li carried out the land reform and took large tracts of fertile land from those powerful families and dignitaries and distributed them to you. Is it for himself?!"

The buzzing voice of the crowd is getting louder and louder.

The complexions of the few people hiding in the crowd changed drastically!

"Those moths occupy large tracts of fertile land and search for people's fat and people's ointment. How can they care about the life and death of you little people!"

"What are you talking about killing innocent people indiscriminately! Which of these moths that suck the blood of the people shouldn't be killed?!"

Everyone looked angry.

Someone shouted: "This lord is right!"

The few people hiding in the crowd looked at me and you, all of them looked ashamed.

Yes,

Those moths who suck the blood of the people, how can they care about the life and death of the people?

these people,

They are also ordinary people!

General Li thought of the people wholeheartedly,

They slandered him so much,

It's just devoid of conscience!

Everyone's faces were flushed, and they couldn't help lowering their heads, not daring to look at Li Huai'an again.

The comments of the people around were whipped to their consciences like whips.
