(It's the weekend.,I wish you all a happy weekend.,Have a haode mood.,Oh also,Please collect)
"Without the Qinghai Order, how could the Heavenly Army be dispatched? Who was it? Who took the Qinghai Order?" Cao Pi roared madly like a mad lion.
"Your Highness, it must be that Cao Zhi handed over the Qinghai Order to others in advance. At this moment, Cao Zhi died, and it must have been that person who mobilized the heavenly army. Cao Qingyun said anxiously.
"It's over! The heavenly army is coming, and none of us can escape. ”
"Damn, I still think that I can go one step further and soar, but now it's good, I can't save my life. ”
"Hey, what should I do, I have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child, I don't want to die. ”
In the palace, the princes and ministers who were still talking and laughing a moment ago, imagining a better future, but at this moment, they were like dying people who had taken poison orally and were about to attack, and they regretted it one by one, and the earth-shattering shout, like the claws of a fierce beast, kept scratching and scratching on the hearts of these people.
"Shut up the fuck!" Cao Pi roared angrily, with a hint of madness in his eyes, he had already expected this moment, after all, seeking power and usurping the throne is not a trivial matter, and anything that may happen must be fully prepared.
"What if the Heavenly Army comes? My father died, Cao Zhi was also dead at this moment, and in the entire Qinghai Kingdom, only I could inherit the throne. What can a hundred thousand heavenly armies do to me? hahaha!"
Cao Pi was crazy daxiao, at this moment he was extremely happy, glad that Mo Guyun did not capture Cao Zhi alive, but killed him, otherwise, he would not kill at this moment, let alone kill him. At the same time, Cao Pi's face was ruthless again, as if several demon beasts were about to bite.
"Lord Guyun, this time, you have made a great contribution!" Cao Pi looked at Mo Guyun with a smile, but that smile was so weird that it made people feel chills in their hearts.
"Your Highness, this is what your subordinates should do. Mo Guyun said lightly.
"Lord Guyun, now that the army is pressing, we must think of a foolproof strategy, for Cao Zhi's death, we must give an explanation to the Heavenly Army, otherwise, none of us will survive. Cao Pi walked to the gate of the palace and stood in front of the threshold, with his back to everyone in the palace.
"Your Highness is right, I understand what you mean. Mo Guyun lowered his head, with a hint of helplessness in his tone
"Lord Guyun, I'm sorry, I'll treat your daughter well. Cao Pi didn't look at Mo Guyun, maybe he couldn't face it.
"Brother Guyun, sacrificing you today saved all of us, don't worry, in the future, your daughter will be my Cao Qingyun's daughter, and the people of your Mo family will be the people of my Cao family. Cao Qingyun stepped forward and put one hand on Mo Guyun's shoulder, seemingly intimate, but he was secretly guarding against Mo Guyun from making any resistance.
"Well, I will keep Guyun County for you, and your daughter will be the next county lord. Cao Pi also made a promise to Mo Guyun.
"Okay, killing Cao Zhi was done by me, Mo Guyun, and it has nothing to do with anyone else. Mo Guyun's tone did not carry any emotion, as if he was a machine.
And Cao Pi also stopped talking, standing quietly in front of the threshold, without looking back. Cao Qingli, Yierlalu and other county lords stood beside Mo Guyun and surrounded Mo Guyun, lest Mo Guyun make any moves. But Mo Guyun was like a walking corpse, stunned and frozen, not saying anything, just burying his head deep in his chest, as if he was thinking and sighing.
At this moment, everyone in the palace understood that Cao Pi was about to lose the car to protect the handsome. He was going to hand over Mo Guyun to the Heavenly Army, because it was Mo Guyun who killed Cao Zhi, and Cao Pi could completely clear up the relationship with Mo Guyun. In this way, Mo Guyun is the only one who pays the price for this rebellion. And Cao Pi can sit on the throne justifiably, because he is the only royal heir of Qinghai State.
A moment ago, Mo Guyun was still a great hero, but now he has become a scapegoat, and everyone feels a deep regret and sorrow for Mo Guyun. At the same time, he also felt a fear of Cao Pi's ruthlessness, and no one knew if his future would be like Mo Guyun at this moment.
It's just that no one can see the slightly raised corners of his mouth under Mo Guyun's lowered head.
Time passed minute by minute, but for the people in the palace, it was like a year, and they had never experienced such a wait, such a torment. But they have no way, in the face of the 100,000 heavenly army, no one can resist, the only thing they can do is to wait, wait for the end of Zuihou, which is also the verdict of Zuihou. Because they participated in the rebellion, and now the 100,000 heavenly army is advancing, it is precisely to crusade against them, the rebels and thieves.
Although Mo Guyun seems to have been controlled and is about to pay for this rebellion as a scapegoat, after all, before the matter reaches Zuihou, no one can feel at ease.
Finally, there was a sound of rumbling and neat footsteps in the distance, and the 100,000 Heavenly Army almost encountered any resistance, and it successfully advanced into the royal city. As soon as they entered the royal city, the heavenly army was divided, guarding every road, alley, and exit in the royal city.
The entire 100,000 Heavenly Army surrounded the royal city, and even a fly would be stabbed to death by random arrows if it wanted to fly in.
Finally, the dense Heavenly Army poured in and surrounded the entire palace layer by layer, and the Central Guard Army, which was full of power before, was now all disarmed and controlled by the Heavenly Army.
Cao Pi finally stepped out of the threshold of the palace, looking at the dense black-armored heavenly army in front of him, Cao Pi's heart was already raised to his throat, but he couldn't see any expression on his face.
At this time, the contingent of the Heavenly Army dispersed from the middle, and a red-faced man with a big knife on his back walked out of it, which was the presidential leader of the National Heavenly Army, Li Fei.
"Li Fei is here, the rebels and thieves are not coming to die soon!" Li Fei shouted towards the palace domineeringly, and the voice made everyone in the palace frightened, even Cao Qingyun and the others, their faces changed slightly at this moment. Because they knew that this Li Fei was the number one master in the Heavenly Army, and his strength had reached the stage of transformation into a god, even if several of them shot together, they would not be able to take much advantage in front of Li Fei. What's more, behind him, there are 100,000 heavenly troops, which are simply as unshakable as a grasshopper shaking a tree.
Cao Pi was also shocked, but he tried his best to make a long-awaited expression, took small steps, stepped down from the steps in front of the palace, and said in surprise.
"Commander Li Fei is finally here, and Cao Pi has been waiting here for a long time. ”
Li Fei looked at Cao Pi coldly, but he didn't say anything, as if he wanted to see what tricks this Cao Pi was going to play.
Seeing that Li Fei was speechless, Cao Pi also swallowed a mouthful of saliva, pointed sideways at the palace, and then said: "Commander Li Fei, the traitor has been captured by us, and he is in the palace at this moment. ”
"Oh?" Li Fei was finally stunned, this seemed to be a little different from what he had learned, didn't that person say that the second prince Cao Pi rebelled?
"Escort the traitor Mo Guyun out!" Cao Pi snorted coldly, and with this cold drink, several cold drinks were also heard in the palace.
"Mo Guyun, you rebellious minister and thief, you will definitely break your body into ten thousand pieces today!"
"Hmph, what you do will be reprimanded by the people of the world. ”
Immediately afterwards, Cao Qingyun and others escorted Mo Guyun out of the palace, but at this time, Mo Guyun was tied up by ropes at some point, without the slightest resistance.
"This is a traitor?" Li Fei said, pointing at Mo Guyun.
"That's right, Commander Li Fei, this Mo Guyun is extremely evil, his father died, and Brother Wang wanted to convene all the county lords to discuss the national funeral, but I don't know that this Mo Guyun didn't know why, he actually wanted to kidnap Brother Wang to blackmail the ministers. Fortunately, all the county lords worked together to capture this thief, but Brother Wang suffered a tragic accident and was killed by this thief. The more Cao Pi spoke, the more sad he became, and tears the size of beans flowed down his face, as if he was heartbroken at the moment.
"Oh, I can't imagine that this Mo Guyun can do such a thing that loses his conscience, he really deserves death, and he should be punished by the Nine Clans. A voice came out of the heavenly army, and a figure also walked out of it.
Cao Pi looked at this unfamiliar face, racking his brains and couldn't figure out who this person was, he could only look at Li Fei, he knew that in this case, not everyone could speak.
Sure enough, when Li Fei heard this voice, not only did he not have the slightest reproach, but he looked extremely respectful, got out of the way, and made this person step forward.
"Could it be that this person is the one who holds the Qinghai Order to command the Heavenly Army? Who is this person, and why have I never seen it?" Cao Pi said secretly in his heart. There are not a few people who have the same idea as Cao Pi, everyone is racking their brains to recall, but they can't find such a face in their memory.
When Mo Guyun heard this voice, he slowly raised his head, looked at this face, and showed an extremely relieved smile.
This person is none other than Qin Lang.
"Lord Qin, is this person really a traitor?" Li Fei looked at Qin Lang suspiciously, although Cao Pi kept saying that Cao Zhi had been killed by this Mo Guyun, but he knew that the real Cao Zhi was in his army at the moment, safe and sound.
"This question can only be asked to His Royal Highness the Prince. Qin Lang smiled and asked Cao Pi instead: "Your Highness, is this person a traitor who plotted to usurp power, killed His Royal Highness the eldest prince, and was then captured by the county lords?"
"Yes, this matter is true, and all the county lords and princes and ministers in the palace can testify. Cao Pi said affirmatively.
"If that is the case, the man deserves to be put to death. Commander Li Fei, take this man down!"
