To sacrifice one's life for benevolence, to sacrifice one's life for righteousness, Yan Li has liked this phrase since he was a child, and now he says it so impassionedly.
"In ancient times, righteous men could sacrifice their lives for righteousness for the sake of the country and the people, but Yan Li is just staying in prison. If you are afraid of going to prison, you will live up to the sage books you have read in your life."
Li Hai felt that every word of Yan Li's words was aimed at him, and every word was like a dagger piercing his heart.
If it wasn't for the current rebels, Li Hai would have ordered the beheading.
"Now the country is in trouble, and every citizen of the Dajing Kingdom needs to contribute to the country. Since you said that you sacrifice your life for righteousness, then I will let you out and let you go to the front line to fight against the rebels!"
Yan Lili thumped, his eyes were full of astonishment: He was locked in the prison for the past few days, and he didn't know anything about the outside world. Didn't expect the rebels to kill him
If Yan Li knew, Li Hai would have personally written a letter in prison, requesting to lead troops out of the city to fight the rebels.
"Your Majesty, how is the battle going?" Yan Ligulu jumped up, he was in prison, but his heart was already outside the imperial city.
A look of embarrassment flashed across Li Hai's face: "Now that the officers and soldiers are retreating steadily, Rong Chang'an sits on the sidelines with a hundred thousand troops, but he is sitting on the sidelines, not daring to send troops to fight to the death with Pan Meichen. I am very worried, so I want to send you and Master Liu out , Persuading Rong Changan, let you dispatch troops as soon as possible, drive the rebels back to the northern border, and restore Dajing Kingdom to a peaceful and peaceful world."
Yan Li lowered his head and thought carefully, Rong Changan is not the kind of person who sits and watches the fighter planes slip by, she must not want to march right away because of him.
Rong Chang'an, Rong Chang'an, I, Yan Li, know that you miss me and love me. I don't want to see me being imprisoned by the emperor. I feel angry in my heart, so I stay here. But the more you are like this, the more unhappy I am. For my personal safety, if I miss the opportunity to quell the war, I will be a sinner through the ages! And we must be reviled by the ages!
"Your Majesty, I understand Empress Rong well. She stood on the sidelines and didn't enter the army. She must have a reason. After I go out, I must tell her the emperor's will and ask her to send troops immediately to fight the rebels and make a quick decision."
Hearing the words "The minister understands Empress Rong", a cold light flashed in Li Hai's eyes, and he glanced coldly at Yan Li who was standing behind the railing. It seems that they are more and more affectionate, and they don't pay attention to Li Hai at all, and they don't know how many trysts they have had behind their backs.
Li Hai thought so in his stomach, but there was a smile on his mouth: "I know you have a good relationship with the queen. I let you out, and I really want you to persuade the queen to send troops to kill the enemy. Otherwise, according to the military law, you can't stay here." If you miss the opportunity, you will be killed!"
Li Hai said the last sentence very harshly, full of cruelty.
Yan Li could tell that Li Hai was furious, "I will do my best to drive the rebels back to northern Xinjiang with Empress Rong!"
Li Hai added: "In addition to you, I also sent a supervising army to help you. Mr. Yushi Liu, he is a talent. He is in the army, which is equivalent to me being in the army. What he says, it is easy to understand." It was I who spoke. If you have any requests, such as food and grass, you can tell him, and I will fully support you in the rear."
Yan Li is not an idiot either, knowing what Li Hai meant by sending the so-called "Supervisor Army", generally speaking, he doesn't trust Rong Chang'an.
If they acted that seriously violated Li Hai's will, Liu Yiming could play it later.
Therefore, Yan Li's eyebrows that had just bloomed were now shrouded in clouds.
Yan Li returned to the prime minister's mansion, and gathered his family and friends together in the martial arts hall.
"You have also seen the current situation. The rebel army is approaching the city and is about to launch an attack on the capital. Fortunately, Empress Rong is holding back the flanks, so Pan Meichen dare not act rashly. As the saying goes, when the country is in trouble, everyone is responsible. Now outside the city It’s the battlefield, with the smoke of beacons in sight and the drums and horns deafening to our ears, we stand tall and majestic, if we don’t send troops to kill the enemy at this time, how can we be worthy of our ancestors?”
"Under the overturned nest, there will be eggs. Without the country, there will be no personal happiness for us. This time, we will fight for the country when we are older, and for ourselves when we are younger. Are you willing to be Pan Meichen's subjects? Are you willing to follow me?" My servants, friends, and righteous men who I, Yan Li, went out of the city to kill the enemy, please come and drink this glass of water and wine with me!"
Everyone was moved by Yan Li's impassioned words, and they all raised their hands and shouted: "We are willing to follow Prime Minister Yan to fight against the traitors!"
It was Menzi who came up to get a drink first, and he stretched out his hands with tears in his eyes: "Prime Minister Yan, give me a drink! I want to fight with you too!"
Yan Li looked at the door up and down, and felt that his body was too thin: "Men, you need to be healthy to fight the enemy, you... why don't you take good care of the house for me, and wait for me to come back."
Menzi said angrily, "Prime Minister, you underestimate me! I'm thin, but I have a hot patriotic heart. Moreover, I have a skill. I don't think everyone at the scene may be my opponent."
It's been a while since Yan Li invited his doorman to come and see him, but he really didn't know that he also has outstanding skills, "What skills do you have, show us off."
Menzi shook his outstretched hand: "If you want me to show off, drink this bowl of wine first!"
Infected by his passionate spirit, Yan Li filled a bowl of wine.
Menzi held the bowl with both hands, raised his neck, tilted the bowl, and poured the wine in the bowl into his mouth. Menzi's throat seemed to be a bottomless pit, and one bowl seemed to be not enough.
He touched his mouth with his arm, his face was neither red nor his ears were hot, and without Yan Li's consent, he went to the wall to take down a sparrow bow, plucked the bowstring, felt that the bow was not strong enough, and put it back to a distance, and changed it to another A big one, I plucked the string again, and felt that the bow strength was enough.
He walked outside the Martial Arts Hall, bent his bow and set an arrow, and pointed at a chirping little sparrow on an old locust tree a hundred steps away: "Prime Minister, look at me shooting that sparrow! If I miss an arrow, I will kill it!" Give up my mind, I won't go out to fight with you anymore!"
As soon as the words were finished, the bowstring sounded like a thunderbolt, and with a bang, the plume arrow flew out, and under the eyes of everyone, shot the sparrow through its body and fell to the ground.
The crowd burst into cheers: "Menzi, good job!"
"Why don't you recruit such a shooter? Let him follow out and shoot Pan Meichen's eyes blind!"
"Prime Minister, what do you think?" Menzi raised his chin slightly and smiled triumphantly.
Yan Li patted his head: "I won't let you go out if you are so talented, that's a shame!"
Next, everyone drank a bowl of wine, which was regarded as a certificate of acceptance.
Yan Li counted the heads, there were 300 people in total.
"If everyone puts all their energy into one place and twists them into one rope, even ten people can run the world! Three hundred people are enough to beat Pan Meichen to pieces!"
