In Chang'an City, in addition to the chaos of the people and the army, the bureaucratic class of Wei was also in chaos. These people knew the development of the situation earlier than ordinary people, and their judgment of the situation was more accurate, and they all knew that now the situation in Wei had reached an irreparable level, and the last moment of Wei had come.

Now that Wei has one foot in the grave, they have to make a choice at this moment of social upheaval. Do you accompany Wei into the tomb and bury your name in the pile of old papers of history, or do you vote for another master, continue to eat and drink, and continue to enjoy glory and wealth?

Of course, as courtiers, they have a third option, that is, to retreat to the mountains and forests, and withdraw from the political arena from now on, I believe that the new dynasty will not dig them out again to settle accounts, which can be regarded as a wise way to protect themselves.

Because all the ministers in the court and the central government have their own ghosts, the court of Wei is also noisy and chaotic. The ministers are in chaos, the court is in chaos, and the royal family, concubines, palace maids, and eunuchs in the palace are even more chaotic.

People with a little common sense know that when the country is destroyed, the palace will definitely be burned and looted by those barbaric soldiers (mainly Xiang Yu has a bad head), and as palace people, they will definitely end up miserable.

Now that the enemy army has approached the city, and the destruction of the city is imminent, can they not panic? Among these people, the most panicked are those concubines, these people are the most vulnerable to being poisoned, and when the soldiers enter the palace, they will face the fate of being killed by women~.

Especially when I meet some generals who are psychologically perverted~ like to do this kind of thing the most, even Cao Cao is not exempt from vulgarity. His favorite thing to do back then was to defeat the opponent, and then take the opponent's woman into the bag, it is estimated that this can get more pleasure of conquest~ .

A woman who plays with the princes can get the pleasure of conquest~ , but what about the woman who plays with the emperor? I guess many men are eager to do this. This is the root of the tragic experience of those concubines.

In addition, some of the lords of the fallen kingdom will kill their own women first when the city is broken, so that they will not be humiliated by the enemy. They did this to preserve their dignity and face, but did they ask these concubines if they were willing to die, if they were willing to defend their chastity with their lives?

Chongzhen, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, is a representative of this kind of person, when he broke through the city, he not only killed all his women, but also his daughter Nine Princesses.

The palace people were very flustered, resulting in a complete lack of order in the Wei Imperial Palace, no one did a lot of work, and even many palace people secretly escaped from the palace.

In fact, the most panicked is Cao Pi, as the emperor of Wei, if Shu Han wants to blame, he will definitely not be able to escape. It can be said that he is the main culprit of that criminal gang, and even if anyone can be pardoned, he, the main culprit, will not be pardoned.

Just as on the eve of the Battle of Chibi, Cao Cao's army pressed the border, and many ministers persuaded Sun Quan to surrender, only Zhou Yu persuaded him at that time: Other ministers surrendered, they can still be officials, but they have changed their lords, but if you surrender, there is only a dead end, and even your life is not guaranteed.

Now Cao Pi is also faced with such a choice, if he surrenders, will Shu Han let himself go? In fact, now there is a lot of quarrel in the court, and the main battle faction and the main surrender faction have their own opinions, and the quarrel has reached a white-hot level, and it is almost a big fight.

No matter which country there are people of these two factions, they usually have no contradictions, and they will not show what kind of people they are, only when this soldier is under the city, their true colors will be revealed, and their fangs will be exposed.

There are two kinds of people in the main battle faction, one is blind and arrogant, believing that Wei can win the battle and drive the invaders out of Wei territory. This kind of person has nothing to say, except to say that they have a problem with their IQ.

The other kind of people are people who are foolish and loyal to the Wei State, most of these people are the old courtiers of the Wei State, and many of them are old people who followed Cao Cao to fight the world back then. They have followed Cao Cao through countless ups and downs, and they have infinite love for the Wei State, a country that they had a share in back then. They don't want this country to end like this, they want to do their best to save it, even if they live and die with it.

Although there are not many of these two kinds of people, they are big enough, especially the latter kind of people, they are all veterans of this country, they are all people who can rely on the old and sell the old, they have a lot of influence in the court, and even Cao Pi usually has to let them a little.

Among the ministers of the DPRK and China, the largest number of people are the main faction, and there are two kinds of these people, one is needless to say, they are greedy for life and afraid of death, afraid that they will be affected by Cao Pi in the end, and even they will end up in a bad end.

There is also a kind of people who are not afraid of death, they also know that things are no longer possible after analysis, and if they want to fight with Shu at this time, it is just a sacrifice in vain, and it may also affect the people of the whole city, in this case, it is better to be wise, simply choose to surrender, save everyone, save the people.

Of course, there are also people with other ideas, and there is no shortage of people with strange ideas in this world, but no matter what their starting point is, in the end, it all boils down to the two rhetoric of fighting to the death and surrendering, and then the two factions have a heated argument in the court.

As the emperor, Cao Pi sat on the dragon chair, dizzy from the noise of these ministers, and his ears were still buzzing every day, and his temples were suddenly beating.

No matter what happened in Chang'an City, the Shu army outside the city began to take a series of actions in an orderly manner. The ancients paid attention to the first salute before the soldiers, and the most admired was the soldiers who surrendered without a fight, believing that this was the highest state of victory.

Therefore, Zhang Bao did not order the first attack on the city, and it seems that only Liu Hou would do this kind of thing to start fighting without saying a word. Zhang Bao first asked a loud knight to run outside the city gate on a single horse to shout.

The general meaning of his shouting was to call on the soldiers and civilians in the city to surrender quickly and not to make unnecessary resistance, and said the reward standards for meritorious deeds such as offering the city gate or capturing and killing the generals of the Wei State. In the end, he shot a letter of persuasion written by Zhang Bao to Cao Pi~ into the city.

The Wei army on the city wall did not embarrass him, the two armies fought without killing the envoy, this person came to the city wall alone, and shouted and sent a letter, and he was also a messenger, such a person killed him to no avail, and also left a bad reputation, killing him is useless. In the end, the knight was able to return to the Shu camp safely.

The envelope of the letter written by Zhang Bao was written with the words "Puppet Emperor Cao Pi personally opened", which was of course very disrespectful to Cao Pi, the emperor, but at this juncture, no one dared to intercept this letter. The letter was soon sent to Cao Pi's case.

The content of the letter is nothing new, it is nothing more than to promote the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, criticize Cao Pi's usurpation of the country, and then elaborate on the feudal superstition, saying that the current Han Emperor is the true dragon emperor, and now the army is coming with the power of heaven, which is unstoppable, and the will of heaven is difficult to violate, and persuade him to surrender the city quickly, and the mercy of the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty will be able to spare his life.
