Chapter 208: Recognizing Relatives at the Execution Ground, Justice Is on My Side! (1/2)
"Next, leave it to me!"
Li Xiao said calmly and sentenced all enemies present to death.
At this time, Li Yunqing also flew onto the execution platform.
"Father!"
She drew her sword and slashed at Li Tian's fine steel chain, cutting it off.
The weak Li Tian vomited blood and fell to the ground. Li Yunqing hurriedly helped his father up.
"Yunqing..."
The corners of Li Tian's mouth trembled slightly.
He was imprisoned in Tianlao for five years.
The joy in my heart when I saw my daughter again was beyond words.
In the prison, the only person he still cares about is his daughter Li Yunqing.
After all, the entire Li family has fallen. You can imagine how difficult it is for a woman to be in the palace.
It is true that after the fall of the Li family, every step Li Yunqing took was difficult, and she was targeted at every turn. If not for the Holy Sage's promise to rehabilitate the Li family, she would have been unable to survive.
But there is no need now, because the Li family has a strong man!
"Father, you are still alive, that's great, that's great..."
Li Yunqing thought her father and the others had died in the prison, but now she was so excited to see them alive. She wiped away her tears and looked at Li Xiao: "Xiao'er, come here quickly, this is your grandpa!"
"I still have family?"
Li Xiao couldn't help but was stunned, walked towards him, and shouted: "Grandpa!"
He had always thought that he had no other relatives except his mother.
In his last life, Li Xiao was an orphan, with no one to care for or love him.
Dying alone in the ward.
When he died, no one came to see him.
No friendship in the world is reliable, only family affection is not mixed with interests.
Li Xiao longs for family affection so much.
In this life, he has it, he still has his grandfather!
The old man in front of me has scars all over his body, his face is withered and bloodless, his temples are white and gray, and he smells of rot. He looks very pitiful...
He must have suffered a lot from the imperial court.
Seeing his grandfather in such a state, Li Xiao's hatred for Queen Xiao grew even more!
"Father, I named Li Xiao Li. He is a member of our Li clan!"
Li Yunqing looked at Li Xiao and said happily.
"I have a grandson..."
Li Tian looked over excitedly, stroked Li Xiao's head, and said with great joy: "Your name is Li Xiao... Your surname is Li, and you are from my Li family. Okay, okay..."
The entire Li family, except for the four of them, was imprisoned in the sky prison.
Other clan members and grandchildren have been killed.
How could Li Xiao's appearance not make this old man happy?
"Grandpa, this is the Dragon Scale Blood Coagulation Pill, please take it..."
Li Xiao took out another pill and put it into Grandpa Li Tian's mouth.
Dragon Scale Blood Coagulation Pill is made from the innate spiritual fruit Dragon Scale Grass and many precious medicinal materials. It is a middle-grade medicine that can restore all injuries.
Spirit fruit is a relatively rare treasure in the boundless sea, and this elixir is very expensive.
Li Xiao exchanged it for the magic weapon he brought out from the great secret treasure, only ten of them.
But Li Xiao didn't feel any distress when saving his family.
On the contrary, I am glad that I got this healing medicine by chance.
Otherwise, now that I see my family members suffering, there is no way to treat them.
Li Xiao suddenly thought of his other mother Li Yunquan. She must have a high level of cultivation now. If she uses the supreme magical power "Blue Dragon Wood Emperor Great Freedom", she should be able to directly heal her wounds and the effect should be better.
However, the effect of this elixir is unparalleled at the moment.
Not only is it extremely effective, but its medicinal properties are also extremely mild.
The medicinal power will not rush out all at once, but will be released slowly according to the absorption capacity.
After Li Tian took it, his injuries healed quickly and his face became mellower.
Internal and external injuries are recovering to a perceptible extent.
You know, this is a precious medicine that can treat those who are strong in the magical mystical realm.
Li Tian's cultivation was originally that of a minor master, but it has been deposed and he is just an ordinary person.
It is very easy for an ordinary person to be treated with Dragon Scale Blood Coagulation Pill.
"What a powerful medicine..."
Li Tian touched his body in disbelief. Even his dry skin began to become shiny, plump, and gradually regained its elasticity...
"Xiao'er, this is your uncle!"
Li Yunqing took Li Xiao and met his second relative.
This is a middle-aged man with a resolute face, who has been battered and damaged.
Seeing his nephew, he forced a smile and said, "Good boy!"
"Uncle!"
Li Xiao grabbed the iron chain off Li Cun's body with a gentle grab, showing his extremely powerful and surprising strength.
"Uncle, eat it!"
"Um!"
Li Cun swallowed the pill given by Li Xiao and recovered quickly like Li Tian.
"Xiao'er, this is my second uncle."
Li Yunqing introduced his second uncle Li Hong.
"Second uncle!"
Another pill passed, and Li Hong's injuries recovered.
"This is my uncle."
"Uncle!"
Li Xiao smiled and untied his uncle Li Qubing from the iron chain.
My brother-in-law is not very old, only in his twenties.
"Take medicine!"
"I eat."
Li Qubing took the elixir in one gulp, and his injuries quickly recovered.
Of course, only the injuries are recovered.
Li Qubing's martial arts cultivation could not be restored.
Feeling that his body was recovering, Li Qubing looked at Li Xiao in surprise: "Nephew, you are really awesome. Your popularity is no worse than that of your uncle back then."
Li Xiao laughed and said: "It seems that my uncle was also a man of great influence back then."
Li Qubing smiled and said, "That's not true."
It can be seen that Li Qubing's character is the kind of bohemian, casual and unrestrained, and he can still joke with his nephew at this moment.
Li Xiao patted his uncle on the shoulder and said, "But today, you can only watch me show off."
Li Qubing nodded and forced a smile: "Let uncle see how beautiful you are!"
He has such a sharp vision, he has already seen how powerful his nephew is.
Being able to be watched by so many powerful people.
Talk to them calmly.
Without strong strength, you can't do this!
I'm afraid it's true as Jiang Ziling said, the Li family... can be saved!
"Zhu Tianwu..."
Li Yunqing took Li Xiao to recognize his relatives, and when he arrived at Li Qubing's side, he saw that the person tied to him was none other than his husband, Emperor Tianwu!
"Yun'er..."
Zhu Tianwu spoke slightly, not knowing how to face it.
"Don't call me Yun'er, you don't deserve it!"
Li Yunqing's face suddenly turned cold: "Back then, I was plotted against in the palace. Where were you? Then I was chased by the royal guards sent by Queen Xiao. Where were you? What qualifications do you have to call me that!"
Everyone can forgive, except Emperor Tianwu.
Zhu Tianwu sighed and said: "I don't ask for forgiveness, it's my incompetence..."
Li Yunqing snorted coldly: "You are so incompetent that you have become a prisoner!"
"Yun Qing, don't speak of Your Majesty like that."
After all, Li Tian was a loyal minister, so he explained: "The Holy One also has his own reasons. The Xiao family is powerful and controls the imperial court, and the Holy One's imperial edict cannot go out of Zhongshu Province. We were sent to the heavenly prison, and the Holy One thought of many ways." There are ways to let us out, and even send people to rob the prison privately, but the Tianlao is tightly controlled by the Xiao family, and even the Holy One is powerless..."
There are many things here that Li Yunqing doesn't know.
"so what!"
Li Yunqing snorted coldly: "Father, you don't know that two years ago, I was chased by Queen Xiao and almost died. Wang Li also died protecting me at that time. Even if he couldn't defeat the Xiao family, would he still ignore it? "
Li Yunqing didn't blame the Holy Emperor for not being able to save her.
But the Holy One didn't save the two of them!
Whether you have ability or not is one thing.
Whether to save or not is another matter!
To put it bluntly, in order to take the overall situation into consideration, Zhu Tianwu gave up on the two of them and chose to endure the humiliation and wait until he was stronger before taking action.
After all...the country is more important than their mother and son!
"I...it's all my fault..."
Zhu Tianwu lowered his head and felt extremely guilty, "But I can't help it..."
Li Tian sighed: "Yunqing, stop fooling around. The Holy One is the master of the world. It is impossible for her to risk her country for the sake of her children's affair..."
Although a little helpless.
But it is what it is.
A wise monarch must put the overall situation first.
It would be a wrong decision to fall out before you have accumulated enough strength to deal with the Xiao family.
But women are emotional. Li Yunqing understood the reason, but still shook his head: "No need, he is no longer in my heart, and I can never forgive him."
After saying that, he looked at Zhu Tianwu and said, "Even if you sacrifice our mother and son, do you win now?"
She will always remember those days of running for her life and living in danger.
How desperate she was during that time!
Li Yunqing thought many times that he would just die and be done with it.
But she resisted such thoughts when she thought that she still had children in the world.
After all the hardships, she finally found her child.
"I'm sorry for you."
Zhu Tianwu lowered his head and continued to speak shamelessly.
That's right, even if he sacrificed Yun'er and her child.
But in the end, he lost to the Xiao family and the Mahayana Dragon Court. He lost completely!
Li Xiao also heard it at this time. The man kneeling on the ground and chained in front of him was his father Zhu Tianwu, the former Tianwu Emperor of the Dajing Dynasty.
He smiled and spread his hands: "Hey, if mother doesn't recognize you, there's nothing I can do about it. I won't recognize you either. After all, mother almost lost her life for me!"
"Li...Li Xiao..."
Zhu Tianwu raised his head and looked at the child.
This is also his biological son.
It seems that this son's strength is equally unfathomable...
He suddenly fell into a trance.
My two sons are both very strong...
Only two or three years old, they have shown incredible strength.
But in the end, neither of them recognized themselves as their father...
"Xiao'er, please let the Lord go."
Li Tian walked over, looked at Li Xiao and said, "As ministers, we should..."
Li Xiao smiled and shook his head, interrupting his speech, "I'm sorry, grandpa, I have to reject you. You are a minister, but I am not. I will not obey his orders."
Li Tian advised: "We, the Li family, contributed to the founding of the Dajing Dynasty and helped the Holy One to win the world. Now that the Holy One has been humiliated, how will we deal with ourselves if we don't save him and violate the etiquette of a monarch and his ministers?"
"How to handle myself?"
Li Xiao laughed and said, "Grandpa, please don't be upset if I say a few more words. As long as our Li family ascends to the throne, it won't be considered a violation of the etiquette of monarchs and ministers, right?"
As soon as this statement came out.
It was like a depth charge exploding in the calm water!
Li Xiao made a shocking statement, he actually wanted the Li family to ascend the throne!
Li Tian, Li Cun, Li Hong, and Li Qubing were all shocked.
Li Tian said: "Xiao'er, what do you mean?"
Li Xiao continued: "Don't you understand? The throne can be occupied by Zhu and Xiao, but can't be occupied by Li?"
Li Tian was an old antique after all. He shouted: "This is a conspiracy to usurp the throne, which is not in line with justice!"
"Wrong, wrong, wrong, this is not a conspiracy to usurp the throne."
Li Xiao looked at his grandfather Li Tian and said: "Grandpa, you must know that the throne of the orthodox emperor Zhu Tianwu has long been lost. It was the Xiao family who usurped the throne. We are eradicating the cancer of the Xiao family and then ascending the throne. It is reasonable! As for justice... Grandpa, I will show you what justice is."
Li Xiao walked to the execution platform and looked at the people below: "People, now the world is in turmoil and the people are living in misery, all thanks to the Xiao family. I ask you, are you suffering!"
The people were silent and did not dare to answer.
After all, the current empress is still present.
If you talk nonsense, you will be punished later.
"You have been kneeling for so long that you can't stand up?"
Li Xiao looked solemn and continued: "I will now raise the banner, overthrow this corrupt dynasty, and re-establish a new dynasty. A dynasty where everyone has clothes to wear, food to eat and clothes to wear. I want to let the people of the world have education, work to get income, have medical care, have old-age care, and have a place to live. Create an unprecedented prosperity! ! Are you willing?"
Li Xiao spoke, using some of the skills of Tianhu Xiao.
The sound can be heard thousands of miles away, but it does not hurt people.
Under the sky, Li Xiao's voice echoed endlessly, shaking people's hearts!
Education, work to get income, have medical care, have old-age care, and have a place to live!
An unprecedented prosperity! !
This is the dream of all the people.
Not to mention the dynasty under the rule of the Xiao family now.
Even under the rule of Emperor Tianwu, such a prosperity cannot be achieved.
The people will only accept it.
They are like seedlings crushed by a huge rock.
They have been struggling under heavy oppression for a long time.
Their faces are full of the vicissitudes of the years, and their eyes are shining with the desire for freedom.
But they are dim because of the long-term suffering.
Their shoulders once carried the hope of a good harvest.
Now they can only bear heavy taxes.
Their hands once created countless miracles.
Now they can only shed hard sweat on the worn-out tools.
Their lives are bound by layers of shackles.
It seems that they can never break free from the shackles of darkness.
Li Xiao's voice spread thousands of miles.
The people of the entire capital, and even the people farther away, can hear it.
This speaks out the voice of the people of the world.
Their inner desire!
"Such a prosperous age, how beautiful it would be..."
Some people have begun to fantasize about such a prosperous age.
The long river of time, the long wait.
The spark of hope has not been extinguished in the hearts of the people.
No matter which dynasty, the people are the most miserable.
Who among them didn't expect someone to raise his arm and lead them to freedom?
Li Xiao's voice shook people's hearts like spring thunder.
The people seemed to be inspired by an invisible force, and they stood up one after another.
Countless pairs of eyes full of expectation and gratitude lit up.
"I do!!!"
A voice came from a distance.
"I do!!!"
Another voice came from a farther direction.
Soon.
The whole capital was boiling, full of loud shouts.
The voices were like waves, one layer after another, piling up higher and higher!
Until... the people standing on this execution ground also began to shout!
"I do! I hope to live in such a dynasty!"
"Whoever can create such a prosperous age is our god!"
"It doesn't matter who is the emperor, we just need to have enough food... This is our lowest requirement..."
The devastated people finally plucked up the courage to shout loudly at Li Xiao.
They saw Li Xiao falling from a height of 10,000 meters, like a god.
Perhaps... this person is the god who saved them!
For the common people.
It really doesn't matter who is the emperor.
What does the relationship between the emperor and the ministers, the orthodox bloodline, and the mandate from heaven have to do with them?
What they want is very simple.
That is a peaceful life, a stable birth, aging, illness and death.
That's all!
Li Xiao said what they wanted in their deepest hearts!
"All this will come true!"
Li Xiao said to the people with a smile.
The people responded like crazy, with mountains and seas roaring!!!
"Look..."
Li Xiao smiled and turned around, looking at his grandfather Li Tian: "Da Yi, isn't it coming?"
Li Tian was silent on the spot, completely shocked.
Li Qubing smiled and said, "Nephew, I support you! At the beginning, I trusted the court wrongly and handed over the military power, and I didn't even have the qualifications to resist. Now it seems that some things have to be done by myself to feel at ease. This world will definitely be better for our Li family!"
"My uncle is still sensible!"
Li Xiao laughed, then looked in the direction of Empress Xiao, pointed his finger like a sword, and said lightly: "The next step is simple, just need to deal with the Xiao family..."
