Chapter 1048: Go to Prison
"Sir, what else do you have to say?" Qin Rounniang glared at Cao Yi, "Sir, the Chief, was under Dayue and above ten thousand people. Cao's family has enjoyed glory and wealth for hundreds of years. Dayue is in trouble.
Didn’t you think about how to share the worries and sorrows for the court and overcome difficulties, but you actually want to keep yourself safe? Cao Yi, do you still have the sense of shame?"
Cao Yi opened his eyes, and the previous horror and anger turned into calm in this moment. Looking at Qin Rouniang, he said calmly: "Qin Rouniang, are you going to kill me?"
"What do you think?" Qin Rouniang sneered.
Cao Yi smiled, "Want to know why I did this?"
"I was just about to hear what you, a person who disregarded your kindness."
"When I was willing to help you get to power, I was indeed thinking about Dayue. At that time, I was in charge of Tongzhou and Su Can was in charge of the south. Dayue had half of the country, so it was not that I had no chance to turn over. At that time, Cao Yi was indeed devoted to it.
Thinking about Dayue, as you said, whether it is Cao or Wang, they are all vines that grow on the big tree of Dayue. If the big tree falls, the branches and leaves will naturally be difficult to survive. This principle is better than you.
You have to know more.”
"Who could have thought that the situation became so bad that it was so fast that Xie Shilin lost tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in one go, lost in Liangtongzhou, lost in Jiangling only half a month, and the southern part of Su Can guarded was even more collapsed.
Except for Su Can's 50,000 Tiger Guards, the rest were all defeated, either surrendering or being annihilated. Qin Rouni, Empress Dowager, and Da Yue were over."
Cao Yi said sternly: "There is no need to support the outside world, and there is no need to defend the city inside. Even if we are united and guard the capital, how long can we defend, one year or two years? In the end, we will still break the city and guard it.
The longer the damage to Shangjing, the deeper the hatred of the Northern Army will be."
"At this time, current affairs are no longer possible. Since they are no longer possible, of course I have to plan a way out for the Cao family and go to Shuzhou, which is the only choice. I will occupy Shuzhou and resist the Northern Army based on the natural danger.
The military stalemate has brought an opportunity to negotiate with Yun Zhao, thus continuing the century-old glory of our Cao family. It's just if."
"It's not that I don't want to keep you and the emperor retreating to Shuzhou, but now, you and the emperor have become people who will be eliminated soon. If you go there, the army of the Northern Army will fight there.
, and there is no room for negotiation and compromise. I think you understand this. If you are bound to you and the emperor, everyone will die."
"Now I'm finished speaking. Since Cao's family has fallen into your hands, I have nothing to say. If you want to kill or cut, please feel free. However, some of my Cao's family have already arrived in Shuzhou. Can you kill them in the end?
It’s over, even if the dynasty changes, my Cao family has a deep foundation and finally rises again, but the Li family will completely become a ruin of history books.”
Cao Yi looked at Qin Rouniang with high spirits.
Qin Rouniang stared at Cao Yi, "Why can't we work together and defend Shangjing to the death, and still be able to fight for a chance to negotiate."
"Impossible." Cao Yi said decisively.
"I know Yun Zhao. He is not the kind of person who can kill him." Qin Rouniang said.
"What you know is Yun Zhao more than ten years ago!" Cao Yi sneered. "Yun Zhao is not the hunter of that year. He has most of the Dayue people and holds hundreds of thousands of troops in his hand. The emperor's throne is already him.
The thing in his pocket, Li Hao is not dead, how could he sit on that chair? A few months ago, Li Mian died in the north, which has explained all the problems. Queen Mother, Qin Rouni, give up all the fantasies, if we still
If there is a glimmer of hope, you and the emperor have no way out. Even if you give up going to the capital to escape, Yun Zhao, who has lived in the world, will still be poor and searching the world. If you don’t get it, you will definitely not give up."
Qin Rouniang's eyes showed a fierce light, which was the gaze that only appeared when a tigress protected his calf, "I was a little bit aware of it. Fortunately, there were also officials from the country like the Old General of Qin who could share the prosperity with the Great Vietnamese.
In decline, there are still 100,000 troops in Shangjing City, and Lou Xiang and Su Can outside. Whoever loses in this battle may win or loses?"
Cao Yi smiled bitterly, "Qin Sheng, an old man, will not give up if he doesn't kill the millions of soldiers and civilians in the capital."
Qin Rouni sneered: "At this time, you are worried about the survival of the people. Cao Yi, I will not kill you unless the day the city is broken, I will let you see how I defended the capital.
”
"It's useless." Cao Yi shook his head repeatedly.
"Drag all these things out for me and take them to Zhao Prison for care first. Cao Yi and Wang Jingluo were imprisoned in Jingren Palace. Without my orders, no one could approach!"
"Abide by the order!" The agent Luowang responded in a coaxing voice, came up and pressed Cao Yi and Wang Jingluo, dragged it away. Cao Yi was a literati and was pressed without any resistance. Wang Jingluo was born as a general and had good martial arts skills, but in this way
Under the circumstances, he knew that resistance would only bring shame upon himself, so he sighed and allowed the guards to cut their arms back and drag them out of the palace.
The house is empty in the hall, Qin Rouniang is like a puppet, sitting there. Qin Niang brings the two-year-old emperor Li Hao, watching her son swaying in the hall under Qin Niang's help.
Running around, Qin Rouniang's heart was the softest part of the moment, and it seemed to be torn apart. My son was only two years old and his life had just begun. I would never let him die like this.
She stood up suddenly, walked towards Li Hao, leaned over and picked him up, "Qinniang, come with me."
Time passed, and the city of Shangjing fell into darkness. A curfew had been imposed in the city. Except for the lights on the city walls and some places that needed people, other places had been silenced.
In Jingren's palace, Wang Jingluo and Cao Yi sat opposite each other. Looking at Cao Yi, Wang Jingluo shook his head and sighed: "Cao Gong, I didn't expect you and me to be together for decades, but it was finally carried in the hands of a woman. It was really ridiculous to think about it.
.”
Cao Yi's eyes stared at the burning lights, as if he was in a daze, but he did not answer his words.
"Duke Cao, Duke Cao!" Wang Jingluo shouted several times, then woke Cao Yi up, "Duke Cao, what are you still thinking at this time? Is there a way to escape?"
"I was wondering, why did Lou Xiang do this?" Cao Yi said.
"What else can you do? This guy has a bone in his head and is born to be a capricious person. We shouldn't pin our hopes on him." Wang Jingluo shook his head and said.
"It's not like this. It's because he's capricious and just like his mother who has milk, that I can't believe him and be willing to trade with him. If it were Qin Sheng, would you trade with him?" Cao Yi shook his head and said: "Lou
Xiang is not a stupid person. He would not dare to go to Beijing and fall into a dead end, but why did he do this? Why did he betray us at this time and express his loyalty to Qin Rouni?"
"These people's thoughts are naturally not subject to common sense."
"There must be a reason, there must be a reason!" Cao Yi stood up, "There must be a reason."
Cao Yi paced around the house," Cao Ge said when he came back that Lou Xiang agreed to the deal with us, and Cao Ge was sure that this person was sincerely doing this deal with us, but finally came out
This only shows that in the next few days, what happened made Lou Xiang change his mind unless, unless..."
Cao Yi looked at Wang Jingluo, and a look of fear suddenly appeared on his face.
"Mr. Cao, what's wrong with you?" Wang Jingluo rarely saw such a scared expression in Cao Yi's eyes. Even when he was caught by Qin Rouniang, he was not so scared.
