Can I get to the other side?
Chapter 194 Cao thief, you are a cowardly eunuch
In the backyard of Yang Biao's house.
Yang Biao frowned and paced back and forth in the yard, thinking about what Dong Cheng and Fu Wan said to him today.
All this was too strange.
He thought that Fu Wan and Dong Cheng had secretly replaced the emperor behind his back, but after calming down and thinking carefully, he felt that this seemed unlikely.
Because as Fu Wan and Dong Cheng said, their daughters were both in the palace, one was the queen and the other was a noble lady. No matter what the reason was, it was a great crime for the concubines to serve the fake emperor. This was an insult to the emperor's reputation.
And the reactions of the two people today were not the same. Their sons went to Yecheng and came back, so the person who replaced the emperor must be someone else.
It was only because he was not a royal relative and his interests were not consistent with Fu Wan and Dong Cheng, and Yang Xiu stayed in Yecheng and did not return, so the two people suspected him.
"But this matter has nothing to do with me! When did I replace the emperor and secretly send the emperor to Yecheng?"
Yang Biao's expression was a little painful.
This feeling of being unable to defend himself really made him feel uncomfortable. The key point was that he had no evidence to explain because Yang Xiu stayed in Yecheng.
If he were Dong Cheng and Fu Wan, they would not believe that this matter had nothing to do with him. No matter how you look at it, he is the most suspicious!
So he had to find a way to explain it clearly...
"Wait, explain?"
Yang Biao suddenly stopped and raised his head abruptly.
"Why should I explain?"
He suddenly realized a question he had never thought about.
In the eyes of everyone, all signs showed that he was the mastermind behind the emperor's substitution to Yecheng, and he was an insider lurking on Cao Cao's side.
Although he knew that he had never done such a thing.
But... what if he did it?
The worst that could happen was that he would be killed by Cao Cao in a rage!
"The real emperor has now regained his freedom and is in power. There is great hope that he can revive the Han Dynasty and restore the Han Dynasty to its former glory."
"In the eyes of the emperor, Fu Wan and I are all traitors who supported the false emperor. But if I establish my identity as an insider and let everyone think so, then even if the emperor knows that I am not an insider, he must admit that I am an insider!"
"Besides, supporting the false emperor was not my wish. I was also deceived. After knowing this, the emperor will not treat Dezu harshly."
"So I must be the insider!"
"It has to be!"
After thinking for a while, Yang Biao knew what he should do next.
That is, he should establish his identity as an insider as much as possible without actively admitting it. It is best to let everyone think that he was the one who replaced the emperor.
In this way, he can wash away his own guilt and become a loyal minister in the eyes of the emperor.
At the same time, he will plan a bright future for Yang Xiu and let him be valued by the emperor!
The more Yang Biao thought about it, the more excited he felt. His heart began to beat violently. The pressure on his body seemed to have faded away at this moment.
() () As soon as the thought came up, he felt that the world was wide!
However, at this moment, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the backyard.
When he walked over, he saw Cao Cao leading a group of soldiers with a gloomy face.
"Cao Cao? Why is he here?"
Yang Biao's face changed slightly when he saw this, but when he saw Xu You following Cao Cao, he immediately understood everything.
This guy must have complained to Cao Cao!
When Xu You saw Yang Biao's eyes, he avoided them with a guilty conscience, and felt uncomfortable all over.
He really didn't mean it!
Cao Cao walked into the backyard with a cold face, looked at Yang Biao with a bad look, and sneered: "Yang Biao, your plan is really brilliant, but unfortunately, I still saw through it!"
Yang Biao remained silent.
Naturally, Cao Cao, like Fu Wan and Dong Cheng, believed that he had sent the emperor to Yecheng before the emperor moved the capital to Xu County.
But he was ready to confirm his identity as a loyal minister and was ready to die. How could he be as afraid as before?
Seeing Yang Biao's silence, Cao Cao became more and more impatient and said aggressively: "Tell me! When did you send the emperor to Yecheng? Who else was involved in this matter besides you!"
There was solid evidence that Yang Biao had replaced the emperor. He wanted to ask the other accomplices to see who else was involved in this matter besides Yang Biao!
"Haha." Yang Biao looked at Cao Cao with disdain, with a look of fearlessness, and said: "I don't know anything, you can't get anything out of me."
"You traitor, you pretend to welcome the emperor, but you actually have evil intentions. Since you know that the emperor is not in Xu County, kill me."
He now looked forward to Cao Cao killing him, so that he could perfectly become a loyal and brave minister who dedicated himself to protecting the emperor!
Out of selfishness, he sacrificed one life in exchange for the rise of the entire Hongnong Yang family.
Out of a desire to serve the country, he could further solidify the orthodox status of the emperor of Yecheng.
This deal was profitable no matter what.
Cao Cao was furious when he heard this, and drew the sword from his waist and crossed it across Yang Biao's neck, saying with murderous intent: "Do you really think I dare not kill you!"
Yang Biao was not afraid, and closed his eyes waiting for the blade to hit him.
His loyal reaction made Xu You on the side more convinced that he was the insider who replaced the emperor.
If he was really killed by Cao Cao, what would happen?
So he held Cao Cao tightly.
"Aman, no! You can't kill him!"
Cao Cao was already angry at this time, and he wanted to break free from Xu You in anger.
"Ziyuan, don't stop me! I will definitely kill this old man today!"
Xu You hugged Cao Cao tightly with both hands and persuaded him earnestly: "Yang Biao is one of the three princes and an important minister of the imperial court. If you kill him, it will definitely cause panic among all the officials!"
"And if Yang Biao dies, we will really have no way out!"
Xu You's words finally made Cao Cao calm down.
He and Xu You's original plan was to blame Yang Biao and the others for pretending to be emperor if they failed in the end, but who would have thought that it was Yang Biao who planned this matter.
Killing Yang Biao now is equivalent to cutting off the last escape route and completely breaking with the emperor.
No matter what happens in the future, the emperor will not let him go.
Thinking of this, Cao Cao's expression changed several times, and finally he put down the sharp blade in his hand.
"What, you don't dare to take action anymore?"
When Yang Biao saw that Cao Cao actually put down his sword, he was immediately disappointed and cursed Xu You for his evil deeds.
Then, in the shocked eyes of Cao Cao and Xu You, he took the initiative to grab Cao Cao's hand, put the sword across his neck, and urged: "Kill me quickly!"
Cao Cao and Xu You both had dull faces.
What's going on?
Is this old man willing to die?
Xu You immediately broke Yang Biao's hand away and persuaded him with kind words: "Mr. Yang, don't be excited. You are an important minister of the Han Dynasty, and Da Sikong is also a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty. How can he kill you?"
"Shut up! You dog with a broken spine! How dare you bark here!" Yang Biao opened his eyes angrily, cut Xu You off directly, and said righteously: "It's just death today! What do I have to fear!"
Yang Biao seemed to be afraid that outsiders would not be able to hear him, so his voice was so loud that it was heard from the courtyard to outside.
"You, you..." Cao Cao's face turned pale, and he was very angry. He came over to force Yang Biao to tell the truth, but why did Yang Biao start scolding him?
The key is that he really doesn't dare to take action!
Not to mention that the emperor's retreat in Yecheng was cut off, just the hundreds of officials in Xu County could make him suffer.
"Do it quickly!"
Yang Biao faced the sharp blade in Cao Cao's hand and walked away.
Cao Cao was forced to retreat continuously, and he could only yell angrily: "You old man!"
"That's it! Ziyuan, let's go!"
Yang Biao is not afraid of death, and Yang Xiu is not here, so he has no weaknesses.
There was nothing he could do against this old man, he couldn't kill him.
"You don't even dare to kill people? Cao Cao, you are really a courageless eunuch!"
Cao Cao felt veins popping up on his face when he heard this, but he still controlled the anger in his heart and sped up his pace to leave.
Yang Biao became anxious when he saw that Cao Cao was still humiliated and still refused to kill him.
Today, Cao Cao led troops to the door. If he did not die at home, how could he fulfill his reputation of loyalty?
Yang Biao looked around, and finally looked at the wall not far away, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Since he couldn't be killed by Cao Thief himself, then being forced to death by him could achieve the same purpose.
He immediately took off his hat, lowered his head and rushed towards the wall!
"Boom!"
A dull voice came from behind. Cao Cao and Xu You looked over and were instantly shocked!
I saw a pool of dazzling blood on the white wall. Yang Biao was lying on the ground with a broken head and blood, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
"This old man is really crazy!"
Cao Cao felt it was extremely absurd. If he didn't kill Yang Biao, Yang Biao actually committed suicide by hitting the wall?
What the hell is going on here, so desperate to die?
Xu You's pupils were also shaken. He never expected that Yang Biao would do such a violent thing as committing suicide by hitting the wall in order to protect the emperor's secret. He was not a loyal minister. Who in the world would dare to call himself a loyal minister!
It’s over, it’s over! If Yang Biao dies, Your Majesty will definitely not let me go!
Xu You turned pale with fright and quickly urged Cao Cao: "Ah Man, don't be stunned. You go and check on Mr. Yang. I'll call the medical officer!"
After saying that, he hurried out of the yard.
Cao Cao also realized at this time that this old man was trying to trap him into injustice!
He quickly stepped forward to check on Yang Biao's condition.
He lifted Yang Biao up and leaned against the wall. Just as he was about to test his breathing, he heard a voice full of shock and anger coming from outside the courtyard.
"Cao Cao! You actually killed Duke Yang!"
Cao Cao looked up and saw Fu Wan and Dong Cheng appearing outside the courtyard, looking at him with shock and anger.
He couldn't help but panic, and quickly explained loudly: "It's not me, I didn't! It was him who hit the wall..."
"You fart! Your body is covered with Duke Yang's blood, and you still dare to say that you didn't kill Duke Yang!" Dong Cheng interrupted Cao Cao's speech angrily, trembling with anger, "You are good at killing important officials of the imperial court, and you still have such eyes in your eyes." Do you have a king's method? Do you still have a big man in your eyes?"
Cao Cao was very anxious and kept explaining: "I didn't! I really didn't! Listen to my explanation! Mr. Yang may not be dead."
However, given the "conclusive evidence", how could Dong Cheng and Fu Wan listen to his explanation?
Dong Cheng kept yelling like crazy, and Fu Wan even knelt on the ground and cried loudly.
"Mr. Yang! You died so miserably! What should we do if you die! Mr. Yang——"
Once Yang Biao died, no one could tell the emperor his loyalty. He would really be found guilty of pretending to be the emperor.
Once the emperor went south and the city of Xu County was destroyed, it would be the time for his entire Fu family to be executed.
I remember how glorious it was when he married Princess Yang'an. Later, her daughter was canonized as a queen, and she was promoted to the head of the country. How high-spirited she was.
But now, everything will disappear.
Crying and crying, Fu Wan was so sad that he vomited a mouthful of blood, tilted his head, and passed out.
"King Zhang!"
Dong Cheng cried out in grief when he saw this. When he thought of the miserable future and the fact that the whole Dong family would die because of him, he could not help but rush to Cao Cao in anger.
"Cao thief, I will fight you!"
Cao Cao was shocked. He retreated and drew his sword to fight back, but he did not expect that Dong Cheng was tripped by Yang Biao's leg when he rushed over. He lost his balance and fell down. His head hit a stone and he fainted.
Looking at this dramatic scene, Cao Cao's expression was completely stagnant.
"Aman! Aman! How is Yang Gong? I brought the medical officer back!"
Xu You shouted loudly, and hurried back to the backyard with a medical officer in a hurry.
As soon as he walked into the yard, he saw Fu Wan lying on the ground with blood on the corner of his mouth.
Looking up again, Cao Cao's hands were covered with blood, holding a sword in his hand, and Dong Cheng was lying at his feet.
His body immediately stiffened and he looked at Cao Cao blankly.
Cao Cao was simply dumb and bitter at this time.
He could only say hesitantly: "Ziyuan, none of this has anything to do with me, do you believe it?"
Xu You came back to his senses, turned around and said to the medical officer: "You go back, and notify the funeral shop to prepare three top-quality funeral supplies..."
"Wait! Fu Wan and Dong Cheng are not dead!"
Cao Cao could no longer bear it, and stepped forward to stop the medical officer from leaving, and said with a stern face: "Don't worry about these two people, go and see Yang Biao quickly, if he dies, you will be buried with him!"
"Okay, okay Sikong."
The medical officer was terrified, he was in an unexpected disaster, and hurriedly ran over to check on Yang Biao's condition.
Xu You pulled Cao Cao aside and roared angrily: "Aman, look at what you have done! Yang Biao's death is already a great disaster, why did you kill Fu Wan and Dong Cheng?"
"It's over! It's all over now!"
He was almost mad at Cao Cao, Yang Biao alone had already scared him out of his wits, and now Fu Wan and Dong Cheng were added!
Who knows if they are loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty and the emperor's accomplices, just like Yang Biao.
"I didn't kill them!"
Cao Cao felt very upset, trembling all over, and tried to defend himself, "I didn't even touch the corners of their clothes!"
Let's not talk about Fu Wan and Dong Cheng for now, but if he forced Yang Biao to death, he would be in big trouble.
Even Dong Zhuo, who was powerful at the time, couldn't stand such a charge.
Xu You sneered, "Do you want to say that Fu Wan vomited blood and fainted, and Dong Cheng stupidly hit his head on a stone?"
Cao Cao nodded repeatedly, "Yes! That's it!"
How could Xu You believe Cao Cao's lies? He said with a sad face, "Don't say you can fool the world with these words, you can't even fool a three-year-old child. You'd better think of a reason that can explain it!"
Just when Cao Cao was worried about Yang Biao's life and death, Xun Yu, who got the news, also hurried over and stood at the door of the backyard of Yang's mansion, looking at Yang Biao and the other two lying on the ground in horror. He said in a trembling voice:
"Ming Gong, you...how could you do this!"
