The Emperor of Qin gave six handsome men

Chapter 196 Facing People's Hearts

In Xianyang, some people from other places came one after another, each of them had a heavy face and a sad expression.

Liu Bang and several others were brought out, attracting a lot of onlookers.

"My Lord, are these the traitors?"

An old man leaning on a cane asked the soldiers, and the soldiers nodded.

"Exactly!"

The old man took out a tablet from his chest and pointed at Liu Bang and the others.

"My son, those people are now living a life worse than death. It's really gratifying, but my son, you will never come back..."

The leading soldier pointed at the torture instruments beside him and said to the old man.

"Old man, you can use the torture instruments over there, just don't kill them all at once."

After getting permission, the old man picked up the whip and walked towards Liu Bang.

"My son Huang Tu is only 20 years old this year. He has always been a good boy and has never given us much trouble since he was young. He is my pride..."

The old man did not torture them at the beginning, but recalled every detail of his children, with every word he said being heartbreaking. The people in the county town who were gathered to watch the fun could not help but shed tears.

"It's all your fault. Why did you rebel? The Qin Dynasty is getting better and better, why are you not satisfied? You keep saying you want the best for the people, but what have you done? You have caused tens of thousands of families to be torn apart, wives and children to be separated..."

The old man was in so much pain that he beat them with all his might.

Several people's mouths were sealed and they could only whimper. They did not dare to look into the eyes of the victims' families. That desolate and sad look was like hot oil that kept frying their few remaining consciences.

Emperor Fusu of Yuancheng and hundreds of officials were watching from a high building. Many officials with low tear points and low birth backgrounds had already burst into tears, as if they saw the shadows of their own family members in the old man. Some seemed to miss their deceased fathers and fell into deep thoughts for a while.

In the crowd, there was a young man squeezed in among them, with mixed emotions in his eyes, one part was heartache and nine parts was disgust.

In his memory, the impression that man left on him was that he was lazy and idle. Later, he disappeared, and his mother met a man who treated her very well, and that man also treated him as well as possible. He almost forgot about him.

But later he appeared again, killed the man who was kind to him, and took away his mother and sister. It was his mother who found a way to let him escape, but they themselves were taken to Xiangjun.

In the past two years, my mother had tried to find someone to bring him money and take care of him, so that he could hide his identity and concentrate on his studies. But why did he appear again? Why didn't he die?

Liu Bang noticed the young man's gaze, opened his eyes and saw those familiar eyes, which were full of disgust and hatred, which hurt his heart and two lines of tears fell from his eyes.

The boy told him with his mouth "Go to hell!" and finally slowly walked out of the crowd. He didn't want to stay in Xianyang anymore. He wanted to go to Xiangjun to reunite with his mother and sister.

"Your Majesty! That man has a child."

Qin Xingfu reminded Fusu.

"That child doesn't look like his father!"

"Although the child is innocent, we still cannot neglect him. His growth environment is very important."

Fusu was still too soft-hearted, but he couldn't bring himself to ask Qin Xingfu to kill a child, and he was worried that it would leave hidden dangers.

"Yes, I watched it right under my nose."

Fusu had also ordered people to bring Lu Zhi to Xianyang. Although the woman was innocent, Fusu did not dare to underestimate her.

The boy ran back to his home, opened the door, and found two people standing in the yard.

"Mother, sister!"

"Brother!"

"Yinger!"

The three of them hugged each other and cried bitterly. After they had cried enough, they asked about them.

"Why are you back? Is it..."

Would His Majesty want to kill them? They didn't do anything, so if they died, wouldn't that be innocent?

"Don't worry, Ying'er. His Majesty and the Lord are very clear-sighted. They won't kill us. They've even sent someone to take us back."

From now on, they will be under surveillance, but it is enough for her to know this, the children don't need to know too much.

Hearing her say this, the boy felt much more relaxed.

"Mother, I have changed my name now. Don't call me by my previous name anymore. I will name myself Wei Qing, which means pure and innocent. All my descendants in the future will have the surname Wei, and carry forward Uncle Wei's lineage."

"Okay, my son, you have this intention, and it is worth it that your uncle Wei loves you."

"Thank you, brother!"

Wei Ao knew that he was unwilling to change his name before, but was willing to do so now. Regardless of whether he was forced to do so or not, his father's lineage would not be broken.

"We are a family. Ah Ao, it's too formal for you to say that. By the way, we've been busy talking. Are you hungry? I can cook for myself. You guys take a rest and I'll cook!"

Wei Qing held the two of them down, brought some water, and started cooking quickly.

Lu Zhi's eyes were full of relief. Fortunately, the children did not miss their father, otherwise they would not live long.

Wei Ao looked at the familiar courtyard and thought of his father's tragic death. He could no longer hold back his tears and hugged Lu Zhi and cried bitterly.

Lu Zhi held her in her arms and patted her back gently to comfort her. Wei Qing felt very guilty when she heard this. It turned out that she still felt a little sorry for that man. Now, she wished that he would die immediately to make amends to Uncle Wei.

That night, Lu Zhi came to apologize.

"Sir, a common woman..."

Qin Xingfu helped her up.

"It's okay. I understand your difficulties. Don't worry, no one will make things difficult for you. Just live a good life in the future."

How could she not recognize her own parents? It was good enough that she didn't go crazy.

Lu Zhi didn't know what to say with all the words she wanted to say, she could only nod obediently and say that she would live well.

Qin Xingfu didn't know what to say for a moment. Dreams had to end eventually, and one couldn't deceive oneself forever.

"Live well! There is nothing better than living well. That child looks a lot like me when I was a child. Love her and spend more time with her!"

Lu Zhi held back her tears and nodded, saying that she would do it. Qin Xingfu waved his hand and let her go back.

Returning to the study, she tried to look for the books again, but couldn't find them.

"My Lord, what are you looking for?"

Yue Xin saw her looking for something. Is there something missing?

"Where are the books and bamboo slips here?"

Qin Xingfu pointed to the empty space and asked.

"Those books were taken away by Gongshu Yuan. Sir, those things are not good for you. We are also worried..."

Yue Xin was worried that she would be angry, so he explained hurriedly.

"Forget it, I got it!"

In the past, although she would not be able to remember everything she read in any aspect, she could at least remember some of it. However, she seemed unable to remember the content in that aspect.
