Three Kingdoms: Wolong's brother-in-law, tricking Liu Bei into seizing Jingzhou

Gao Shangwu was stunned, his eyes were full of confusion and he didn't know what to do.

His body swayed a few times and he almost fell to the ground.

Cao Yu's eyes turned and he shouted:

“Tie him up here and don’t allow him to enter the secret passage!
Who knows if this bastard will play tricks in the secret passage, it’s better to stay here to be safe.”

The bodyguards rushed forward and tied Gao Shangwu up tightly.

Gao Shangwu was terrified and shouted:

"Your Majesty, you just promised to spare my life!
I found the secret passage for you, how could you do this to me?"

Cao Yu raised the corner of his mouth and sneered:

"I promised not to kill you, but I didn't promise to take you away.

Just stay here and wait for Xiao Fang to deal with you."

Gao Shangwu was struck by lightning, his whole body shook and he woke up in a daze.

If he is left here, he will definitely be killed by Xiao Fang. This is not saving his life, it is clearly sending him to death!
He struggled desperately and cursed:

"Cao Yu, you will be punished for your betrayal!"

Cao Yu laughed wildly as he entered the tunnel. His figure gradually disappeared into the darkness, leaving Gao Shangwu shouting in despair.

...

The atmosphere in the hall was suffocating.

Only Gao Shangwu was tied tightly to the ground with ropes, unable to move.

At this moment, his face was filled with grief and indignation, and angry insults kept bursting out of his mouth, and his voice echoed in the empty hall.

Outside the palace, the shouts and cries of killing were getting closer like thunder. The Han army was rushing towards them like a surging tide, and their momentum seemed to flatten everything in the world.

As Gao Shangwu listened to the shouts and screams that were getting closer and closer, the flame of anger in his heart gradually died down, replaced by a strong desire to survive.

He began to think rapidly in his mind how he could find a glimmer of hope and stay alive in this desperate situation.

"boom!"

A loud bang, like a thunder, rang out in the hall, and the door of the hall was smashed to pieces by a huge force.

The first to rush into the hall were not the ferocious Han army, but a Goguryeo army.

The military commander with extraordinary aura was Gao Yanyou, the eldest son of Gao Shangwu.

"Yanyou, it's you! You're finally here!"

The moment Gao Shangwu saw Gao Yanyou, a spark of hope instantly ignited in his eyes, and his voice became hoarse with excitement, as if he had grasped the last straw.

The person who led the army to attack was Gao Yanyou.

His gaze slowly fell on Gao Shangwu. He saw that the man in front of him had a bruised face and nose and no longer had the majestic appearance of the past. It was actually his father.

He was beaten up by Cao Yu twice and ended up in such a disfigured state.

Gao Yanyou stared at him for a long time before finally recognizing the person in front of him.

Gao Yanyou did not immediately step forward to untie Gao Shangwu. Instead, he looked indifferent and stared at him with cold eyes.

Gao Shangwu noticed Gao Yanyou's abnormality, and a bad feeling came over him. He shouted:
"Yanyou, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and untie me!"

Gao Yanyou slowly stepped forward, looking down at Gao Shangwu from above, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a mocking smile:

"It is so ironic that the once majestic King of Goguryeo is now in such a miserable state."

He even openly ridiculed Gao Shangwu, and his words were like sharp blades piercing Gao Shangwu's heart.

Gao Shangwu widened his eyes, his face full of astonishment:
"Yanyou, how can you talk to me like that?

I am your father!"

"Father? You still have the nerve to call yourself my father?"

Gao Yanyou's eyes were full of contempt, and he responded coldly:
"You handed Goguryeo over to Cao Yu, causing it to fall to this state. You are not worthy of being the King of Goguryeo.

Now, only I, Gao Yanyou, am worthy of sitting on this throne!"

When Gao Shangwu heard this, his body shook violently.

At this moment, he suddenly woke up from his dream and realized that Gao Yanyou came here not to save him, but to take his life!

"Yanyou, do you think Xiao Fang really wants to help you become king?
He is just using you to kill Cao Yu!

When he kills Cao Yu, the next person he will kill will be you!"

Gao Shangwu said anxiously, trying to make Gao Yanyou face reality.

"I understand without you telling me."

Gao Yanyou curled his lips in disdain and said coldly:
"Do you think I am truly submitting to the Han Kingdom? I am only using him to take back the throne.

After I have revitalized Goguryeo, I will fight the Han Kingdom and let them know how powerful Goguryeo is!"

He thought that everyone around him was his confidant, so he frankly told them his plan.

Gao Shangwu took a deep breath, his heart filled with shock and disbelief.

He never expected that his son, who seemed docile on weekdays, could have such deep scheming and ambition.

"Yeonyou, Goguryeo is so lucky to have you here.

Don't worry, if you can revive Goguryeo, your father will fully support you!"

In order to save his own life, Gao Shangwu had to bow to his son and give in, his tone full of flattery.

"late!"

There was murderous intent in Gao Yanyou's eyes, as hot as a burning flame, as if it wanted to devour Gao Shangwu.

Gao Shangwu's heart tightened and he said anxiously:

"Yanyou, patricide is a heinous act and will be despised by the world!"

"Don't make a huge mistake!"

Gao Yanyou curled his lips into a sneer and slowly raised the sword in his hand, flashing a cold light in the dim hall.

"Yanyou, Yanyou ah——"

Gao Shangwu screamed in fear and tried to plead for mercy.

"brush!"

Gao Yanyou swung the sword in his hand down without hesitation, flashing across like a flash of lightning.

A sword pierced Gao Shangwu's heart.

Gao Shangwu's eyes widened, his face full of shock and anger, and he fell heavily to the ground with a heart full of resentment and anger.

Everyone around was stunned when they saw this scene and couldn't believe their eyes.

They never expected that Gao Yanyou would actually be so cruel as to kill his father.

"Don't worry, father. I will definitely revive Goguryeo and become a great king!"

Gao Yanyou slowly retracted his sword, a sneer appearing on his face.

Then he turned around and glared at the soldiers, his eyes stern and he said:
"I ask you, who killed my father?"

He asked sharply, his voice full of unquestionable authority.

"The previous king was killed by Cao Yu!"

All the bodyguards responded in unison, as if they had rehearsed it countless times.

Gao Yanyou laughed with satisfaction, and his laughter echoed in the hall, sounding particularly harsh.

"He even killed his biological father. Prime Minister Xiao was right."

A sarcastic sneer suddenly sounded.

Gao Yanyou's body was shocked and he looked back suddenly, only to see more than a hundred Han soldiers outside the hall rushing in like a tide and surrounding them.

Guan Xing walked into the hall with a bloody knife in his hand.

The blood on the blood knife was still dripping, making a "tick-tick" sound.

"General Guan, your father was killed by Cao Yu.

Please help me chase Cao Yu and avenge my father!"

Gao Yanyou's heart tightened, and soon he was overwhelmed with grief. He fell on Gao Shangwu's body, crying and sobbing.

When the Goguryeo soldiers saw this, they immediately understood what was happening and pretended to be sad and angry, as if Gao Shangwu was really killed by Cao Yu.

"Gao Yanyou, everything you did was predicted by Prime Minister Xiao!"

Guan Xing looked at Gao Yanyou coldly and exposed him mercilessly.

Gao Yanyou's body shook again and he shuddered.

He didn't dare to admit his conspiracy, so he pretended to be confused and said:

"General Guan, what do you mean?!"

“My Prime Minister Xiao had long anticipated that you would kill your father for the throne!
Do you think you can keep it secret?"

Guan Xing completely exposed Gao Yanyou's thoughts. (End of this chapter)
