Volume 3: Chapter 50 of the Emperor's Prosperity True and False Surrender

The black flag is planted on the hillside, and there is a big black flag fluttering on the flag, which once made the Qi people and the Turks deeply afraid, but now they can only be broken and lonely surrounded in the center, and there are only more than 200 scarred soldiers around it, compared to the flag under the mountain like a forest, this black flag is like a grain of sand, which will be submerged by the sea at any time, and unfortunately, the people surrounding them under the mountain are also holding high the black flag.

Surrounded by Duan Da, Li Shun, Liu Hu and many elite soldiers, Yang Yong came to the front of the battle, and saw that the broken flag on the mountain was still flying high, and couldn't help asking, "Are they unwilling to surrender?" ”

"Back to Your Highness, these people are stubborn, and no one is willing to surrender." Duan Da replied.

Yang Yong listened silently, Liang Shiyan's subordinates were undoubtedly rare elite soldiers, but they did not die in foreign wars, but died under the ambitions of their bosses, which is really a pity.

Li Shun asked tentatively, "Your Highness, do you want to persuade you to surrender again?" ”

"Well, it's good to try again, except for Liang Shiyan, if the rest of the people are willing to surrender, the death penalty can be avoided."

"Yes." Although he was almost certain that Liang Shiyan would not surrender, Li Shun immediately arranged for the surrender.

A soldier walked out and shouted to the mountain: "Listen to the people on the mountain, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has the virtue of a good life, as long as you are willing to surrender, except for the thief Liang Shiyan, the rest can live." ”

"Phew! What a prince is just the son of a rebel minister who plots to usurp the throne, and he will only rely on more to win. A Puzhou soldier scolded.

Liang Shiyan sat on the ground, his age is old, and he has led the army to attack continuously in the past few days, only to feel the pain of his whole body as if he was falling apart, hearing the shouts from the bottom of the mountain, he turned his head to look at his subordinates, the armor on the soldiers has been torn in many places. It was covered with black blood, and his face was full of stains, and only the movement of his eyes made it different from that of a dead man.

"Father, what should I do?" Liang Wu was covered in dirt, unkempt, and lived like a man, if it weren't for the Puzhou army desperately protecting him these days. With Liang Wudi's skills, he died several times early.

Pu Liurujian, I didn't expect that I wouldn't even be able to fight your son, Liang Shiyan couldn't help but be disheartened, and sighed: "You take them to surrender." ”

"What? My lord, you can't surrender. ”

"I can't surrender, my lord. Even if we save one life, we will end up with the frontier as a pawn, and sooner or later we will die in the battle with the various tribes of the steppe. ”

"Yes. My lord, we fight. The rest of the Puzhou army stood up from the ground and shouted emotionally. Only Pei Tong was silent, he secretly regretted following his uncle out this time. Originally, he wanted to find an opportunity to work for the prince, but he didn't expect his uncle to fall into the prince's calculations. Even he couldn't find a chance to get out.

Liang Shiyan's gaze swept over his subordinates for many years. In the end, his eyes fell on Pei Tong, and there was a slight remorse in his heart. Knowing this, why did he bring this nephew in, and his heart moved: "Tong'er, my uncle's matter had nothing to do with you, but it dragged you in, you can go down the mountain and explain to them that the relationship between the Pei family should be fine." ”

Pei Tong wanted to agree immediately, but he looked at the soldiers around him staring at him, but he hesitated, these days, Pei Tong already knew the soldiers' respect for Liang Shiyan, if he wanted to surrender, I was afraid that he would be killed by everyone's angry eyes immediately.

"Dad, what about me?" Liang was in a hurry.

In an instant, a disdainful gaze fell on Liang Wu, although Liang Wu was aware, but he didn't care about it for his own life, and said anxiously: "Or, Dad, let's descend, the prince has always been generous, as long as we plead with the prince, maybe the prince won't kill us." ”

"Shut up, you wicked obstacle." Unexpectedly, his son was so unsuccessful, Liang Shiyan trembled with anger and coughed loudly.

Xue Mo'er's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he whispered a few words in Liang Shiyan's ear, Liang Shiyan shook his head: "No, no, it will only give your head in vain." ”

"My lord, anyway, it's a dead end, it's better to Bo Yibo, even if Pu Liurujian is suspicious, he can't kill the minister without evidence, he was a usurper, and he will be cautious, for fear of leaving any stains, as long as the adults insist that there is no rebellion, at most they will be dismissed, the second son, the third son, their official position Pu Liurujian has no reason to recall, maybe the adult will have a comeback."

mentioned several sons, Liang Shiyan felt a pain in his heart, especially regretted not listening to his second son Liang Gang, and now Liang Gang may also be beheaded because of implication, and then the Liang family will rise up. It's better to Bo, even if he can't escape death, maybe he may be able to stay for the Liang family

, then nodded and responded: "Okay, Xue Changshi, you can arrange it." ”

A herald hurriedly came to Yang Yong's side and shouted: "It's down, just to confirm the identity of His Highness." ”

The persuasion to surrender was actually just Yang Yong's casual remarks, and even Yang Yong himself was not hopeful, and when he heard the shouts of the heralds, everyone looked at each other, almost thinking that their ears had heard it wrong.

"Really?"

"You can't be wrong, can you?"

Before Yang Yong could react, Li Shun, Ji Dun, Quan and other officials at all levels were suspicious, and the herald felt aggrieved: "The little one doesn't dare to lie, Liang Shiyan has sent his chief Shi Xue Mo'er down the mountain to meet His Highness." ”

Although Liang Shiyan only has two hundred remnants now, if he wants to eliminate them, at least one or two hundred more people will have to die, and it is of course the best to be able to fight and surrender, Yang Yong nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, bring Xue Mo'er over." ”

Xue Mo'er quickly arrived, he looked at Yang Yong, suddenly knelt on the ground, and cried loudly: "Your Highness, Your Highness, Weichen finally saw Your Highness." As he spoke, he crawled towards Yang Yong.

"Stop!" When Xue Mo'er was still a few meters away from Yang Yong, the two guards held a single knife in their hands, blocking Xue Mo'er's way forward, staring at Xue Mo'er with fierce eyes, once he had something abnormal, he would immediately swing the knife without hesitation.

Yang Yong and everyone couldn't figure it out, this Xue Mo'er didn't seem to surrender at all, but as if he was seeing his relatives, Xue Mo'er saw that he was stopped by the guards, and didn't dare to move forward, but his mouth sobbed and said: "Your Highness, Weichen still thought that His Highness was coerced by crumbs, and he had to attack Wanrong County with Lord Liang. ”

"Stop! What do you mean by that, do you mean that you are not rebelling? Lu Mulin was laughing and crying when he was listening, and couldn't help but ask.

"Rebellion? Your Royal Highness, it is really a misunderstanding, we received an edict from His Royal Highness, come to Wanrong County to meet His Royal Highness, but did not expect that Wanrong County not only refused to open the door, but instead put a secret arrow to injure the Duke of Yun, the Duke of Yunguo thought that it was the rebellion of Wanrong County, and threatened His Highness, if we knew that His Highness was safe and sound, I would never dare to attack the city, the king wanted the minister to die, the minister had to die, His Royal Highness did not say that he wanted the life of the Duke of Yunguo, that is, the lives of all of us, and we did not dare to resist. ”

Xue Mo'er said loyally and courageously, as if there was indeed something to do, the people around listened to it and buzzed loudly, and turned their heads to ear, although everyone received the prince's edict that Liang Shiyan rebelled, but except for a small number of people who knew the details of the rebellion, at this time after listening to Xue Mo'er's words, they couldn't help but suspect in their hearts that it was the prince's intention to find a mistake that made Liang Shiyan misunderstand.

At this time, Confucianism was weak, basically the family and the Son of Heaven ruled the world together, except for a few scribes, the general family officials must first be loyal to the family, and then loyal to the court, and do not agree with the monarch to the death of the minister, the minister has to die, because of this, Emperor Xuan of Zhou's extravagance, but also made Yang Jian to the Sui Dynasty Zhou logically, cut off Yu Chi Hui, Wang Qian, Sima Xuan and others, all the family officials calmly accepted the reality of the change of dynasty.

If it was really the prince who deliberately shot and killed the Duke of Yu and caused a misunderstanding between the Duke of Yun, this matter would be serious, Li Shun, Ji Dun, Quan and others all looked at Yang Yong with suspicious eyes.

I didn't expect to be bitten back, if it weren't for Yang Yong having received Pei Tong's secret letter, I'm afraid he would have thought that what Xue Mo'er said was true, Yang Yong sneered: "Misunderstanding, what a big misunderstanding, Xue Changshi, then you tell this palace, what is the beast must be the head, what is the foundation of the Great Sui has been stabilized, and the father should enjoy his old age in peace, if he rebels, it is undoubtedly the way to die, and hundreds of people in the Liang family will become powder?" ”

Yang Yong's words seemed to be a thunderclap, and they exploded in Xue Mo'er's ears, this is exactly the secret words he and Liang Shiyan said in the study, how could it reach the ears of the prince, no wonder the prince will set up a situation, it's over, now everything is over, Xue Mo'er suddenly collapsed to the ground.

Seeing that Xue Mo'er's arrogance was completely gone, Yang Yong showed a smile: "Xue Changshi, do you still want to live?" ”

Xue Mo'er was in good spirits, he was infected by everyone on the mountain, and there was a bit of pride, after going down the mountain at this moment, he was in the dense soldiers, and the pride on his body quickly disappeared, and now he was exposed by the prince The secret things in his heart were even more frightened, and he heard that there was still a chance to survive, and the idea of survival suddenly blaze: "The humble position was threatened by the Liang thief, and he had no intention of rebelling, and begged His Highness to spare his life, and asked His Highness to spare his life." ”

The suspicion of the prince just now suddenly turned into contempt for Xue Mo'er, but Xue Mo'er couldn't care about anything in order to survive.
