Chapter 587: Succession
Cao Pi and the others didn't expect that Zhen Yao brought them to the palace, where Yang Ling, Cao Zhi and the others would drink and have fun.
I didn't have time to think about why Zhen Yao did this, and the Praetorian Guard soldiers on the left and right had already rushed forward.
Cao Pi had no choice but to raise his arms and shout,
"Kill the enemy with me, and I will be rewarded afterwards!"
Sima Yi and the others also knew in their hearts that if they were defeated today, they would never be able to survive again.
So they gritted their teeth, and with the determination to die, they rushed towards Yang Ling and Cao Zhi!
The two sides soon got into a scuffle!
However, Cao Pi's side did not have an advantage in numbers, and as more and more forbidden soldiers rushed over when they heard the news, they gradually fell into disadvantage!
"Come and let me meet you!"
Xu Chu laughed loudly and joined the battlefield with a big knife.
It was none other than Sima Yi's two younger brothers, Sima Fu and Sima Kui.
Looking at the menacing Xu Chu, the two instinctively sensed that something was wrong.
The two of them had no intention of making a move with Xu Chu at all, and turned around and planned to retreat.
However, how could Xu Chu let them go, with an arrow step, the knife in his hand fell, and Sima Fu was split in two!
Sima Kui next to him was suddenly so frightened that he couldn't walk at all.
Xu Chu stabbed him over again, and directly cut him into two pieces!
"It's boring!"
Xu Chu disdainfully shook off the blood stains on the knife.
"Second brother, third brother!"
Sima Yi, who was not far away, saw this scene and was stunned!
Cao Pi was even more shocked by the bloody scene, speechless!
After a while, when he came back to his senses, he immediately dropped the weapon in his hand and exclaimed with a pale face,
"I ...... I give up! ”
When Yang Ling heard this, he shook his head slightly at Dian Wei, who was guarding behind Cao Pi.
Dian Wei nodded knowingly, and waved his big hand,
"The rebels are stubborn, release the arrows!"
The forbidden soldiers beside him raised the Ling Yue repeater in their hands one after another.
"Whoosh!"
Countless arrows broke through the air, and the first one to bear the brunt was Cao Pi, and the whole person was directly shot into a hornet's nest!
He glanced down at his body, a look of disbelief on his face, and fell to the ground with a heavy blow!
Before losing consciousness, Cao Pi suddenly remembered that he had promised his father Cao Cao that he would treat Yang Ling politely, and if he broke his oath, he would die under ten thousand arrows!
Isn't the situation today the fulfillment of a vow?
Like Zhu Shuo, Li Fu and others, they also failed to escape, and they ended up with the same fate as Cao Pi.
The battle in the temple happened suddenly, and it ended quite suddenly.
In less than a cup of tea, Cao Pi and his party were almost completely killed and wounded, leaving only Sima Yi alone to support his injured body and lean on the pillar in the hall.
Looking at the forbidden army approaching him step by step, he was not frightened, but his expression was complicated.
"Wait!"
Yang Ling called the soldier and commanded,
"First escort Your Majesty and the ministers out of here."
The sword has no eyes, if it weren't for the fear of being injured by mistake, Cao Zhi and the courtiers would have wanted to leave this place a long time ago.
Hearing Yang Ling's order, they were also relieved.
After Gan Ning, Ma Chao and others escorted Cao Zhi and them away, in addition to the corpses in the hall, only Yang Ling, Sima Yi, Dian Wei, Xu Chu and others remained.
"Sima Yi, do you know, I only have one sentence to tell you about this situation."
Yang Ling said with a smile.
"What?"
Sima Yi asked subconsciously.
"When the cat doesn't want to play with the mouse, the mouse doesn't have any chance."
Sima Yi's pupils shrank suddenly.
This is not arrogant!
But he had to admit that Yang Ling had arrogant capital!
"Since ancient times, you have become a king and lost a king, Yang Ling, you won, I have nothing to say."
"But before I die, I would like to ask you, Zhen family...... But the chess pieces you arranged? ”
Sima Yi's eyes were fixed on Yang Ling.
"Yes, that's exactly what I arranged."
Yang Ling nodded generously.
Although he had expected it, after hearing Yang Ling's words, Sima Yi couldn't help but be shocked!
He had to sigh, Yang Ling's scheming was so deep!
Unexpectedly, when Cao Pi had not yet ascended the throne as the emperor, he used a trick to install the Zhen family beside Cao Pi!
"Tonight, I asked Zhen Yao to lure you here, so that I can get rid of you openly."
"Not only that, but even the hundreds of armors in the Mi family's warehouse are actually what I deliberately let you put in."
"Otherwise, do you think that with your ability to do things, you can do it seamlessly?"
Yang Ling smiled disdainfully.
When Sima Yi heard this, his face was quite gloomy.
Together with their step-by-step attack on Yang Ling, it was all deliberately done by Yang Ling!
In the contest with Yang Ling, Sima Yi can be described as a complete defeat!
"It's almost time, let's send him on his way."
Yang Ling waved his hand.
Dian Wei and Xu Chu did not hesitate, stepped forward, and passed with a knife!
Sima Yi's head flew high and fell heavily to the ground!
A generation of Tsukasa Tigers has fallen!
"Clean up this place, and I'll go meet Your Majesty."
Yang Ling gave an order, and walked towards the palace where Cao Zhi was.
After the fright just now, Cao Zhi's face turned even paler.
Seeing Yang Ling walk in, he hurriedly got up and took the initiative to greet him,
"General!"
"I've seen Your Majesty!"
Yang Ling bowed and said respectfully,
"Tonight's assassination of His Majesty has been quelled."
"The rebels led by the abolished emperor have all been beheaded, please rest assured, Your Majesty!"
Hearing him say this, Cao Zhi felt a little relieved and praised,
"With the general in charge, I'm quite relieved!"
"If there is nothing else, the minister will retire first."
Yang Ling gave up his hand and planned to leave.
"Great General, slow down!"
Cao Zhi hesitated for a moment, but still stopped Yang Ling.
"What does Your Majesty command?"
"Brother-in-law, sit down, I have something I want to discuss with you."
Yang Ling was slightly stunned, but still sat down next to Cao Zhi.
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"Now that I have no children under my knees, in order to ensure the bloodline of the Great Wei, I wonder if my brother-in-law is willing to pass Yang Yuan to me?"
Cao Zhi said cautiously.
When Yang Ling heard this, he was taken aback and hurriedly said,
"Your Majesty is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, presumably there will be a prince, so why rush for a while?"
"I know my body best, I'm afraid I won't have a few days to live."
Cao Zhi smiled wryly.
After abolishing Cao Pi's emperor, he and Sima Yi and others assassinated Cao Zhang and poisoned Cao Zhi, and the truth was also revealed.
Yang Ling immediately invited someone to check Cao Zhi's body.
But the situation is quite bad, and the toxicity has penetrated deep into Cao Zhi's internal organs.
Zhang Zhongjing is very old, and he has gone west last year.
Hua Tuo was also killed by Cao Cao early.
Although the imperial doctors in the palace are all Zhang Zhongjing's senior disciples, they can't help them.
According to them, no matter how much he recupes, Cao Zhi can only extend his life for half a year at most.
