Chapter 653: Cheng Yu's Death

As long as the lord is willing to give up his face, put down his body, and resign from the position of the king of the East China Sea to the Son of Heaven, he is still called the Duke of Chu, and at the same time invite the king of Qin to enter the royal capital, and hand over the army to the command of the king of Qin, in this way, the king of Qin has the virtue of supporting the Son of Heaven, and the lord also has the beautiful talk of resigning from the prince, and the lord is the uncle of the Son of Heaven, even if the king of Qin is powerful, he will definitely keep the throne of the lord, and try his best to appease the lord, so that Isn't it a great thing that not only will the lord's life be saved, but that the title will be passed on to his descendants from generation to generation? ”

"Hey, hey, hey, I thought it was a good idea? So you mean to make me surrender! I, Cao Pi, a generation of male lords, coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, ruled thousands of miles, 100,000 soldiers, as long as the development is good in the future, it is possible to counterattack the Han Dynasty and seize the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in the Central Plains, so as to Weijia Hainei, Longden Ninety-Five, and create an immortal cause, how can he easily surrender? Mr. Cheng, your idea is not very good, tell me the truth, were you burned by Zhou Yu in Guangling? Or did you secretly collude with that Liu He a long time ago, so you let Zhou Yu's guy easily succeed, hit our army hard, and then take my Guangling, and then went to my palace in person to persuade me to surrender, so as to ask Liu He for merit and reward? ”

"This, this, my lord, how can you think like that?" As soon as Cheng Yu heard this, his eyes immediately widened, he looked at Cao Pi in disbelief, and said loudly: "Xia Guan is standing in the position of the lord, doing his best to consider for you, and helping you how to maximize your benefits, but I didn't expect you to think like this, I, Cheng Yu, have been loyal to your father and son all my life, and have never said a trace of complaint, how can I go to others for the so-called merits and rewards?" The loyalty and righteousness in the hearts of the lower officials can be learned from heaven and earth! ”

"Hehe, don't give me this set, I've seen a lot of things like this, and Lejin also claimed how loyal he was at the beginning, but what was the final result? Didn't you betray me and take refuge in Liu He? If he had been truly faithful, he would never have wavered in his will because he had been wronged by me! But no matter what, Lejin is also a person who knows how to be honest, he knows that his surrender is not honorable, so whether it is writing letters or doing other things, it is done in secret, but sir, you are different, your face is simply made of the city wall, extremely thick, and you can persuade me to surrender in person, for this, Xiao Wang has to admire. ”

"Lord, you, how can you say that? It's bloody. Cheng Yu didn't expect that he came with good intentions, but he was humiliated by Cao Pi like this, and he was immediately angry, trembling all over, pointing at Cao Pi, and refuting angrily.

However, Cao Pi was even more annoyed, and shouted: "You old horseman, you dare to point at me, it's really rude!" ”

Then he ordered left and right: "Put this old man into prison and take him to the country of Wa, hmph, he wants to surrender to Liu He, but this king can't let him get his way!" ”

The left and right soldiers agreed, and immediately dragged Cheng Yu away and sent him to the prison, although the current prison is still in the dungeon, but because the army is about to set off after the fifth watch, Cao Pi issued an order that anyone who dares to delay will be beheaded, so the jailers in the prison did not dare to slack off, and had already prepared dozens of prisoner cars to load those prisoners into the prison car in advance, and although Cheng Yu was temporarily arranged in, he also received the same treatment like others and was put into the prison car in advance.

Although it is summer, it is definitely uncomfortable to stay in the prison car for half a month, plus Cheng Yu is old, how can he stand this kind of torture? In particular, the psychological blow was even heavier, and I persuaded him with good intentions, but in the end I got such an ending, which is really discouraged.

Under the double torture of body and spirit, Cheng Yu suffered from wind chill the next day, but at this time, the army was rushing with 100,000 people, who could take care of him? It can only make his condition worse and worse.

After a few days, the army got on the ship and began to go to sea, which further deteriorated Cheng Yu's condition, and after more than ten days of turbulence, Cheng Yu could not bear the torture of illness, and finally died of illness in a cabin somewhere after the third day at sea.

When he was dying, Cheng Yu was still worried about Cao Pi's safety, and said to the jailer guarding him: "If the lord comes here to see me, please tell the lord, at this time Liu He will definitely concentrate all his strength to encircle our army, so if you want to successfully set foot on the land of the Japanese country, it is best to drive north along the sea, it is now summer, the south wind prevails, and it is just a tailwind to the north, if our army guarantees not to be discovered by the enemy, it is best to turn east after traveling more than a thousand miles north." Although the lord doubts me, but my loyalty to Cheng Yu can be learned from heaven and earth, but it is a pity that even if the lord can reach the Wa Kingdom, he still can't avoid being harmed by Sima Yi in the end......"

Speaking of this, Cheng Yu died of anger, and even the jailers on the side were moved to tears, and reported Cheng Yu's illness and death to the next level.

Even so, Cao Pi received the news of Cheng Yu's death an hour later.

"What? Cheng Zhongde died of illness? Hearing the news, Cao Pi was stunned for a moment, and said with a look of disbelief: "How can this be? I didn't let you die, why did you die? ”

Originally, in Cao Pi's heart, the reason why he brought Cheng Yu to the Wa Kingdom was mainly to wait for the day when Cheng Yu changed his mind, hoping that he would be able to realize his mistake and sincerely assist him, because he still had to rely on this person to deal with Sima Yi, but he didn't expect the other party to die so soon.

At this time, Cao Pi's heart was full of remorse, and he immediately rushed to the cabin where Cheng Yu was.

"Lord, when Mr. Cheng was dying, let the villain tell you that at this time, the King of Qin will definitely do his best to encircle our army, if the lord wants to successfully set foot on the land of the Wa Kingdom, he needs to be so ......" After seeing Cao Pi, the jailer said Cheng Yu's dying words in 1510.

Cao Pi heard the jailer say that Cheng Yu did not forget to give him advice when he was dying, and heard that Cheng Yu did not complain during his detention, and he was even more ashamed of his past attitude towards the other party, and finally said angrily: "Mr. Cheng is seriously ill, I don't even know for so many days, what do you jailers eat?" What do the officials at all levels eat? Such dereliction of duty has caused me to lose such a loyal and good talent as Mr. Cheng, which is really unbearable! ”

Then he ordered that all the jailers and prison officers in the prison where Cheng Yu was being held should be beheaded.
