The Assassin Empire of the Three Kingdoms

The imperial palace in Yecheng is magnificent.Although they have gone through wars, no one has let this palace do anything.Long Jun's military discipline is very strict, and no one dares to do anything wrong without the order of his superiors.When they entered the city at the beginning, some soldiers were lucky enough to surrender. Lu Xun beheaded them on the spot without saying a word.Therefore, the palace is still the original palace, except for some people who died in the palace, everything is the same as before.

When Cao Pi stepped in again, he felt as if he had passed away.The place has not changed, but the people who control it have changed.Knowing Cao Pi, he quickly kowtowed to his prince.Huang Xu smiled and said, "Now he is no longer the prince, he has become the emperor of Wei!" The servants kowtowed again.

Huang Xu's words made Cao Pi sound like teasing, but he didn't dare to refute.In the main hall, Cao Cao's mourning hall is still there, but the corpses are missing, and the lonely rows are erected in front of the empty coffin.There was no one in the hall long ago, and the candles and sandalwood had been burned long ago.The paper money on the table was blown all over the ground. In just one day, it seemed that no one had been here for thousands of years.

Cao Pi fell to his knees in front of the coffin with a plop: "Father! Huh..." He didn't dare to say anything else, and could only use his crying to represent the grievance and guilt in his heart.

Jiang Wei took a look and asked curiously, "Why is Cao Cao's body missing?"

Lu Xun said: "It was already gone when we attacked, and since then we have been fighting, and no one cares about it, so we didn't look for it. I just got idle, so I started to look for it immediately. After all, it is also His Majesty's father-in-law, so I can't rest in peace. I can't justify it!"

Everyone in the palace or people was rushed to the square in front of the main hall, from the empress and concubines to the scary ones serving tea and water, standing neatly in rows and pairs.Huang Xu waved his hand and called the palace steward over: "Go and pick out everyone who was in the mourning hall on the day we entered the city, and if one is missing, your head will be taken!"

The steward nodded quickly.The result can be imagined, those family members of the Cao family are all in the mourning hall, and there are scary people who follow them to serve.Almost all of them are female relatives.All the men went to the big tent, and only the female relatives stayed in the mourning hall.Let the soldiers forcibly drive those people out of the crowd.Huang Xu was about to ask, but Lu Xun organized him.

In hot weather, the fierce sun stared at the group of people in the yard intently.How delicate their identities are, soon some people couldn't hold on and passed out.Lu Xun ignored it.Cao Cao's queen, Mrs. Bian, couldn't see it, and begged Lu Xun to let them go.Lu Xun turned a blind eye, and Huang Xu replied: "Young lady, you shouldn't be called queen mother, as long as you tell where Cao Cao's body is, I will let you go immediately!"

Cao Pi hurriedly knelt down and said, "General, we are also very sad that my father's body is missing, but it has nothing to do with the family at this time, so please let the general let them go?"

Du Yu came down from the steps.Looked around and went straight to the child who was standing next to a fainted woman.The woman didn't know what it was from Cao Cao. She must be very weak and fainted on the ground. A three or four-year-old child beside him was crying loudly.Maybe it's because this woman is not very important, or for some other reason.In short, no one cared about him except after he fainted.

Du Yu knelt down and wiped away tears for the little boy: "What's your name? Who is that on the ground?"

"My name is Cao Mao!" Cao Mao choked up and said, "The one on the ground is my mother!" Cao Cao lived in groups of wives and concubines, and there were no fewer than dozens of people with names and surnames recorded in history books.Du Yu naturally knew that Zhao Ji, Cao Mao's mother, was a singer, and Cao Cao, who was good at singing and dancing, liked it.Zhao Ji is young and beautiful, and Cao Cao's heart is more attractive than those older concubines.The more he is favored by Cao Cao, the more he will naturally become a sworn enemy in the eyes of others.

Du Yu nodded: "You are a good boy, a filial boy, just tell me where your father is, and I'll let them see your mother!"

"Really?" Cao Mao was a little scared. He raised his head to see the fierce gazes from those nearby, and quickly lowered his head.

Du Yu chuckled: "If you don't tell me, I can't help it. Look at your mother lying here. If you don't save her, she might die. How pitiful is a child without a mother!"

Jiang Wei didn't even want to watch it, he felt like an accomplice at this moment.A group of big men bullied these orphans and widows. No matter how you look at it, you think that Lu Xun and others are bad people. Of course, I am not much better.

Cao Mao made a choice between his mother and everyone's vicious eyes, and finally chose his mother: "The brothers took my father away!"

As soon as this remark came out, the whole square was in chaos in an instant.Several elder brothers, Cao Mao is the youngest in the Cao family, and there are many Cao Cao's sons above him, Cao Zhi, Cao Xiong, Cao Ang, etc., and more importantly, Cao Xiu, Xiahouba, Xiahoumao and others are also unknown. No trace has been found so far.Du Yu glanced at Lu Xun, who nodded slightly.

Cao Pi sat down on the ground, knelt down in front of his mother and burst into tears.Lu Xun gave an order, and all the soldiers and horses took action to turn the palace upside down.I learned from Cao Mao that many of the Cao family's nephews were still alive, and asked from several servants that there was a secret room under the rockery in the back garden.Lu Xun, Du Yu, Huang Xu, Jiang Wei and others immediately surrounded the entrance of the rockery with soldiers.

Called inside and no one answered.Huang Xu was about to go in but was stopped by Lu Xun.This secret room was built by Cao Cao. Since everyone can hide here, it can be seen that it should be quite safe. At least there are many organs, and it is very dangerous to send someone in.Lu Xun suggested to smoke.Everyone agrees.

Jiang Wei said: "Is there another exit from this secret room? You see, this place is not far from Beicheng. If it leads to the outside of the city, I believe those people have already left!"

Lu Xun didn't know if that would be the case, anyway, he had to try.Ordering Jiang Wei to lead troops out of the city to search, Du Yu continued to search for servants who knew the inside story, and Huang Xu and himself prepared to smoke.Moist firewood is the best tool for releasing smoke.In order to increase the power, Huang Xu got some foul-smelling feces from the hut.Everything was ready, placed at the door of the secret room, and lit a fire.Several soldiers took turns fanning the smell of thick smoke and stench into the secret room.

The entire rockery began to smoke, and puffs of light smoke came out of the gaps in the rockery, extending for a long distance, and even the flowers next to it began to smoke.Judging by the degree and size of the smoke, this underground secret room is extremely huge, not to mention a dozen people, even 200 people can be fully accommodated.Huang Xu ordered dozens of soldiers to block the smoking places with things, just like Long Sheng brought them to block the chimney of the teacher's house.

It burned for a full afternoon, and there was no movement in the secret room.Huang Xu was a little discouraged, and Lu Xun didn't have any hope.Depending on the situation, there is more than one exit from this secret room, as Jiang Wei said, those people must have escaped long ago.Just when Huang Xu was about to give the order to stop, Du Yu came with an erupting old man. Du Yu introduced that this man was the oldest servant in the mansion.It has been in the mansion since Yuan Shao's time.Cao Cao's palace was transformed from Yuan Shao's General's Mansion, so the old man knows everything here.

The original builder of this secret room was Yuan Shang, who built this secret room to guard against Cao Cao.Unfortunately, just after the excavation, Cao Cao chased after him.After Cao Cao took Yecheng, he didn't know about the secret room, and it wasn't discovered until after he ascended the throne.Following Yuan Shang's plan, in order to guard against Long Fei, Cao Cao ordered to continue digging.Since then, until now, the construction work has not stopped, and it should not have been completed.

The old man said: "I heard that I just dug to the gate of the city, and the bottom of the city wall is too hard to dig. Are there other exits? I have never heard of it!"

"So, there is only one exit from the secret room?" Huang Xu regained his energy, laughed and ordered the soldiers to continue.

As the sun went down and the sky darkened, a torch was lit to illuminate the entire back garden. As the smoke grew thicker and thicker, someone finally couldn't hold on anymore and rushed out from inside regardless of life or death.The soldier who had been waiting for a long time swooped down and knocked the man to the ground.Afterwards, more and more people came out coughing loudly. There were dozens of people more, and one or two less.

The last one to come out was Cao Cao's fourth son, Cao Zhang. He brandished a big knife with a nose and tears, and his eyes widened: "You despicable villains, I will fight with you!"

The tripping rope is the best to use at this time. Cao Zhang only focused on the top, and his feet were entangled by the tripping rope. The soldiers pulled and climbed straight to the ground, and the sword in his hand flew far away.Three or four soldiers rushed forward and knocked Cao Zhang to the ground.Cao Zhang, whose face was covered with blood, couldn't stop yelling.Huang Xu was not angry at all, and looked at Cao Zhang and laughed.

After waiting for another night, when the smoke completely cleared, the soldiers went in and carried Cao Cao's body out.Because of the hot weather, the secret room was not very ventilated, the corpse had already begun to rot, and bursts of stench permeated the air.Everyone in the Cao family lay on the ground and wept loudly.Originally, he hoped to escape for a while, but he was beaten up by others, and none of them escaped.

Not only did they find Cao Cao's body, but they also captured a group of weaklings from the Cao family and completely pulled out the power of the Cao family.Under the persecution of Huang Xu and others, Cao Pi issued an edict announcing the surrender of Wei.The imperial edict was delivered to the bank of the Yellow River first, and Sima Yi let out a long sigh. He knew that the Wei State was over, and his wishful thinking had also come to an end.Except for Sima Yi and his son, his soldiers were extremely happy. They no longer needed to fight, and their lives were saved.

When Long Fei received the news, he immediately ordered the whole team to attack.When the dragon army rushed to the Wei army camp, the high-flying Wei state battle flag was replaced by a white flag. The Yellow River defense line that Sima Yi worked so hard to build fell apart, and the dragon army successfully occupied Wei state.
