Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 590 Sorrow

"His Majesty!"

"Something bad has happened! Something bad has happened!"

"Wu Zhi opened the city and surrendered. Liu Bei's troops are heading straight for the palace!"

After Cao Pi handed over the military power to Wu Zhi, he stayed in the palace again.

However, during the night of that day, one suddenly heard the deafening sound of horse hooves and the sound of war drums outside the palace, as if thousands of troops were galloping towards the palace.

He frowned, feeling uneasy. Just as he was about to call someone to ask, he saw a guard stumbling into the hall. His face was pale and his voice was trembling: "Liu Bei's army has already reached the palace gate. The defenders are retreating step by step. The enemy army is unstoppable and is heading straight for the palace!"

When Cao Pi heard this, his face changed suddenly.

He didn't know where he got the strength from, but he stood up suddenly. A trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a fierce look.

He gritted his teeth and growled, "Wu Zhi! How dare you betray me!"

He then turned around and drew out the sword hanging on the side of the hall. The sword's tip shone coldly, reflecting his stern face.

He strode down the steps, his robes fluttering, his eyes as sharp as torches, and shouted sternly: "Come here! Tell the imperial guards to defend the palace gates! I will personally fight!"

Before he finished speaking, shouts and screams were heard outside the hall, the sound of swords clashing was deafening, and flames shot up into the sky, illuminating half of the night sky red.

Cao Pi gripped the hilt of the sword so tightly that his knuckles turned white. Although he knew the situation was hopeless, he still refused to surrender.

He held his head high, his eyes sharp as a knife, and said coldly: "I am the emperor of Wei, how can I bow down to a bandit like Liu Bei!"

After that, he swung his sword, pointing it directly at the palace gate, and said sternly: "All soldiers, follow me to kill the enemy! It is better to die with honor than to live in disgrace!"

However, the enemy troops outside the palace surged in like a tide, and the imperial guards were defeated one after another.

In a short while, Cao Pi saw the people who had broken into the palace.

Xing Daorong!
Ma Chao!

He immediately sneered and said, "Haha... I didn't expect... that you two would still stand in front of me after all."

In fact, Zhuge Liang originally wanted to leave the task of fighting his way to Cao Pi's palace to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

As a result, Ma Chao frantically asked for a fight, and they had no choice but to agree to his request.

However, he was still worried about Ma Chao going alone, so he asked Xing Daorong to go with him.

Xing Daorong actually didn't want to get involved.

But in order to prevent Ma Chao from going too far, he could only watch him.

At this moment, Ma Chao was wearing silver armor, holding a spear, with the flame of revenge burning in his eyes, and rushed into the palace like a tiger.

The palace walls were high and the palaces were majestic, but they could not stop his rage and murderous intent.

His horse's hooves shattered the tranquility of the palace, and no one dared to stop him.

The guards retreated one after another, looking at the fierce Xiliang general in horror, as if they saw the coming of the god of death.

Cao Pi stood in front of the hall, holding a long sword in his hand, his face was stern, but a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.

Ma Chao always looks like he wants to kill his own people completely when he sees them, and today, he is even more furious!

Ma Chao's eyes were like knives, piercing Cao Pi's heart. His voice was low and cold: "Cao Pi! Today I, Ma Chao, am here to take your life and avenge my Ma family!"

Cao Pi pretended to be calm and sneered, "Ma Chao, you are just a reckless man, how dare you break into my Wei Palace and act so presumptuously!"

Before he could finish his words, Ma Chao rushed in front of him like lightning, sweeping his spear across, creating a gust of wind.

Cao Pi hurriedly raised his sword to block, but was shocked and retreated repeatedly, with his palms numb.

This time, he was sick and injured, and injured and sick at the same time, so he couldn't even raise his hands.

Cao Pi was already exhausted, with sweat dripping down his forehead. He secretly hated himself, thinking that if he had known this would happen, he should have cut the grass and rooted it out to prevent future troubles.

Ma Chao pointed his spear at Cao Pi's throat and said coldly, "Cao Pi, today is the day you die!"

"Not only you, I will kill everyone in your palace without leaving a single one alive, all of them!"

Kill them all...

Cao Pi naturally knew that as of today, everyone in the palace was like fish on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered at will!
Cao Pi held a long sword in his hand, his face as pale as paper.

I already knew in my heart that I couldn't escape death today.

However, as the emperor of Wei, how could he kneel down and beg for mercy and allow himself to be humiliated by his enemies?
Cao Pi took a deep breath, straightened his body, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.

Ma Chao pointed his spear and said coldly: "Cao Pi! Your father Cao Cao killed my entire family. Today I will make you pay with blood!"

"If I kill you alone, I will not only hate you, but I will also kill your entire family to relieve my hatred!"

Xing Daorong was also a little frightened when he heard this from the side.

There are so many members of the Cao family. If they were to kill them all, the palace would be a river of blood.

Xing Daorong knew very well that Zhuge Liang asked him to come not to help Ma Chao, but to keep an eye on Ma Chao and not to kill him so that blood would flow like a river.

After some thought…

After defeating Cao Pi, we must also control Ma Chao to prevent him from going too crazy.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Cao Pi sneer. Although his voice was a little trembling, it still carried the majesty of an emperor: "Ma Chao, Xing Daorong, I am the Son of Heaven, how can I allow you to be so presumptuous! Although I am defeated today, I will not die at your hands!"

After saying this, he suddenly turned around and looked at the huge pillar in the hall that was carved with dragons and painted with phoenixes. A trace of sadness and determination flashed in his eyes.

When Xing Daorong saw this scene, he secretly cried out in his heart, "Oh no!"
It seems that Cao Pi is seeking his own death!
Instead of doing this, it would be better to just stab Ma Chao to death!
otherwise…

Ma Chao had no place to vent his anger, which was really troublesome.

But just as he was about to step forward to stop him, Cao Pi moved faster.

I don’t know where this sickly guy got the strength from!

But he strode forward, shouting: "I would rather die than be humiliated!"

Before he could finish his words, he had already used all his strength to ram into the giant pillar.

There was a dull "bang" sound, blood splattered everywhere, and Cao Pi's body slowly fell down. The imperial crown rolled to the ground with a crisp sound.

Ma Chao and Xing Daorong were both stunned when they saw this.

One was that he secretly felt it was a pity that he was unable to kill Cao Pi with his own hands.

The other one also felt it was a pity.

It’s a pity that Cao Pi did not die at the hands of Ma Chao, otherwise he would be in trouble later.

Outside the palace, the sky was dark without a trace of moonlight, and dark clouds loomed overhead, as if in mourning for the last emperor.

Just as Xing Daorong had expected, Ma Chao saw Cao Pi die in front of him but was unable to kill him with his own hands, and he felt extremely resentful.

Ma Chao stared at Cao Pi's fallen body, his eyes were filled with rage, yet mixed with a hint of indescribable complex emotions.

Cao Pi's head hit the giant pillar, and blood slowly flowed down the pillar, staining the ground red and also staining Ma Chao's vision red.

"Cao Pi!" Ma Chao growled, his voice full of resentment and resentment. He strode forward, kicked away the long sword beside Cao Pi, leaned over and grabbed Cao Pi's collar, his eyes wide open, "How dare you do this! How dare you do this!"

Ma Chao naturally had the opportunity to kill Cao Pi himself before, but...

He wanted to torture him a little, so he didn't stab him!
Unexpectedly, just because of this moment of hesitation, I lost the chance to kill the enemy.
