Chapter 658: Li Kesheng Chooses to Surrender

When he learned that Guan Zi not only married Li Kesheng, the leader of the Zhou army, but also gave birth to a son for him, and his son was also captured, Zhao Yunrang couldn't help but want to look up to the sky and smile.

Since the Great Song Dynasty stole the country in the hands of the Chai clan, all the people of the Zhao clan have not won any battles.

I don't know if the good luck has run out, in short, all the people of the Zhao royal family, leading the troops to go out is a defeat once, and the best result can be a draw, so I will write a big book after I come back.

For this reason, since Zhao Kuangyi of Song Taizong, basically no one surnamed Zhao took the initiative to lead the troops, or said that he had made any achievements on the battlefield.

And all this is about to be broken from his body, how can Zhao Yunrang not be excited.

Holding the hole card of Li Kesheng's wife and children, as soon as he arrived at Wen'an City, he urged Hua Mingyue to enter the city and forced Li Kesheng to surrender.

"Tell Li Kesheng that he is not a descendant of the Chai family, as long as he is willing to open the city and surrender, he can be given a great credit, perform well, and there will be a chance to lead the troops in the future. But if he doesn't surrender, he will be the first to kill his wife, and then his son." After viciously throwing these two words at Hua Mingyue, this urged the other party to leave the Song army camp.

As early as on the way here, when I met Zhao Yunrang for the first time, a letter written by Gao Taotao fell into the hands of Guan Ziyan.

In the letter, Gao Tao did not blame Guan Ziyu, but praised him for what he did. The letter even said that Li Kesheng is not surnamed Chai, as long as he turns back in time, it is equivalent to making a great contribution, and it is very likely to be reused in the future.

Gao Taotao really values Li Kesheng, after all, what she lacks now is a military general who can fight well, and in the face of the elite forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty, Li Kesheng can defend the city for two months and stay still, which has proven his ability.

Such a person is also a talent that Gao Taotao is currently lacking.

The master gave a guarantee, which made Guan Ziyu feel a lot more relieved.

At this time, in her eyes, there are only her husband and son, as for Da Zhou's career, what does it have to do with her as a woman?

She only knew that as long as her husband was willing to surrender, the family would not have to worry about their lives, and they would be able to live their own good lives in the future, and they would no longer have to hide in Tibet.

In this way, she told the maid Hua Mingyue that after she saw the official, she must find a way to persuade him.

With the expectation of the young lady and the order of Zhao Yunrang, Hua Mingyue came to Wen'an City alone, and after reporting her identity, she entered the city.

At this time, the atmosphere in Wen'an City was slightly depressing.

Although they relied on their own efforts to defend the city, although with their efforts, Anwu City was impregnable. But after all, they are the side that is surrounded, and there are no people of their own who can support them outside.

This kind of situation, which can only be held onto, will inevitably make some people's hearts fluctuate.

I can only hope that Liao will see the opportunity in the next and will keep its promise to send troops to help, otherwise, sooner or later, the grain and grass in the city will run out. At that time, the Song army would not have to attack the city and take the city.

Li Kesheng, who is usually on the top of the city tower and has to pretend to be a winner, looks extremely tired every time he returns to the mansion in the city.

Everyone put their hope in him, but where is his hope?

Who can he rely on?

At this time, someone suddenly came to report that a girl named Hua Mingyue had come to the city.

Originally, he was still tired, but when he heard the name of the person who came, Li Kesheng got up all of a sudden, and after saying a word of invitation, he went to the outside of the hospital. Not far from him, the girl followed by the two soldiers was not Hua Mingyue or who was it?

"Why are you here?"

After asking in surprise, Li Kesheng looked left and right, and then said, "Block the news of her arrival, immediately."

The pro-soldiers around him led the order and left quickly, Li Kesheng grabbed Hua Mingyue's arm, and led her into the inner hall, and without waiting for the other party to sit down, he turned around and quickly asked, "Why are you here, but what happened?"

"Sir, yes

Something has happened." Finally saw Li Kesheng, at this moment Hua Mingyue's mind relaxed, these days of grievances made her no longer able to control her emotions, so she cried out loud.

"Oh, don't just cry, what the hell is going on, you say." Li Kesheng was so anxious that he urged like a hot room.

"Sir, that's right. Since you're gone..." forcibly stopped the tears, Hua Mingyue told everything that had happened recently.

In the end, she also took out a letter from her arms, which was written by Guan Zi's in-laws.

Knowing that his wife and children were arrested by Song Jun, Li Kesheng was naturally shocked.

Originally, he thought that even if he died in Wen'an City in the end, there would be nothing, he already had a son, and someone inherited his incense.

But now, the only hope is gone, which makes him not in a hurry.

took the letter, opened it quickly, and while reading, Li Kesheng's tears couldn't stop flowing.

At the beginning of the letter, it was full of longing words, written and written, and it became Guan Ziyu's persuasion letter.

In her words, the official is not a member of the Chai family, and the crime does not lead to death. If she can dedicate the city, it will still be a great achievement, and when the time comes, her original master Gao Taotao will speak for her, not only will she not be punished at that time, but she will also have a great possibility of becoming a member of the Song generals.

When that time comes, it's time for the whole family to be reunited.

At that time, you don't have to live in the shadows, you can stand in the light of the world.

Please Li Kesheng not look at his own face, but also on Xiao Li Xiang's face, and he must think twice.

At the end of the letter, Guan Ziyu said that she would wait for Li Kesheng's news, if he had to refuse to defend the city, then she would not live alone, but it was a pity that Xiao Li Xiang was going to end his life at such a young age, and the Li family would also cut off the incense and inheritance because of this.

These last words made Li Kesheng cry.

From the bottom of his heart, Li Kesheng naturally didn't want to descend to the Song Dynasty, but his favorite wife and children were in the hands of others, if he resisted, his wife and children would die, this was a scene he couldn't bear and never wanted to see.

When people are dragged down, even if they are decisive husbands, they may become indecisive.

Lu Siqiao was not in the city, and Li Kesheng had less worries about acting, he first arranged for Hua Mingyue to rest, and then went straight to the master's mansion with his own soldiers.

Qiu Da's place of residence is very close to Li Kesheng, which is also to prevent no one from being found in case of any emergency.

When Li Kesheng arrived, Qiu Da was meditating cross-legged. The master has been together for many years, and the relationship has long been like that of father and son.

Maybe it's because of the next generation, Qiu Da likes Xiao Li Xiang very much, and now that he learned that he was arrested by Song Jun, Qiu Da's face became a little ugly.

"Brother Sheng, what do you think? No matter what you do, the teacher will fully support you." Qiu Da was silent for a moment, and then expressed his full support.

Just now, Li Kesheng had already made a decision, and now in front of his master, he directly stated his attitude and said, "Master, although the ancestor of the Li family also has a background (Guo Wei's nephew's descendant), it is far inferior to the Chai family. For so many years, we have been supporting the Chai family, and with the efforts of several generations, the kindness is over. Now that the Great Song Dynasty does not pursue descendants other than the Chai clan, this is certainly an opportunity."

"So you want to descend the Great Song?" Qiu Da, who heard what he meant, spoke.

"Yes." Li Kesheng said firmly. "In fact, there is nothing bad about the Great Song Dynasty, the politics are clear, and it is also good for the people. And now that the wind and rain are smooth, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, why not pay for it. Even if it was true that the Great Song Dynasty could be overthrown, could the Chai clan do better? Could it be that the restoration of the Great Zhou is even better than it is now?"

"In the eyes of the disciples, not necessarily. Besides, Zhou is the week of a hundred years ago after all, and how many people remember it now?"

"Even if we overthrow the Song Dynasty, who knows if the descendants of the Zhao and Song dynasties will find a way to overthrow the Great Zhou, and so repeatedly, it is only the people who suffer."

"For the sake of the people of the world, the disciples decided to surrender to the Song Dynasty, and it is not the case that the soldiers should be stopped

For the benefit of the people?" (It should be said here that the people in his mouth were not really low-class people, but people made up of gentry and magnates.) Although these people are not many in number, they can account for less than 10% of the population of the Great Song Dynasty, but the power of public opinion is in their hands, and they represent the so-called people)

Li Kesheng had a resolute attitude and a picture of figure-out, but there was not a single word between the lines mentioning his wife and children, as if there was no such thing at all.

But Qiu Da knew that Guan Zi's marriage, especially Xiao Li Xiang's capture, was the key to the matter, otherwise even if Li Kesheng would have surrendered, he would not have descended so early and so happily.

Knowing that the apprentice was determined to do so, if he was in the way, it would only make the master and apprentice vantage point, so he simply did not stop it, but said, "Even if you make a decision, the teacher will support you. But there are two things to keep in mind."

"Please teach me." Li Kesheng clenched his fists angrily.

"First, we must control the entire city of Wen'an, and we must not create internal killings. As a last resort, even if you want to kill, you can't kill them all, only the first evil is. You know, if you want to establish yourself in the world in the future, these people are your foundation."

"Second, when negotiating with the Great Song court, you can first open your mouth, and then retreat, in short, to protect your own rights and interests. I'm afraid some people are more impatient than you in this matter."

"Master, the apprentice has written it down." A teachable look, Li Kesheng agreed.

That night, before Hua Mingyue's entry into the city spread, there was suddenly movement in the city, and then Feng Chunxue became the first person to be arrested.

As a descendant of Feng Lei, the former boss of Hutou Mountain, Feng Chunxue has always been good friends with Lu Siqiao, and her sisterhood is very deep.
