"Or, Duke Yang, you are willing to sacrifice other people's lives to fulfill your reputation of being loyal to the country..."
These words were not meant to flatter Duke Yang, but were meant to sow discord between him and other soldiers.
Even though Duke Yang was a military general, he was not meant to be killed, so he naturally understood what Qin Honghao wanted to do.
He waved the sword in his hand upwards, "Cease-fire!"
He also couldn't allow the lives of those who followed him to be threatened.
After all, he had already rescued his daughter-in-law, and the lives of other family members were still unknown, so he couldn't kill them.
With Duke Yang's loud shout, the war stopped.
Everyone stopped fighting.
The air was filled with blood, and the atmosphere was still tense.
"You are such a despicable and shameless villain! You plotted to usurp the throne and threatened your family members. Is this the justice you as scholars and scholars should follow?" Duke Yang mocked. "How much nobler are you than us military commanders? You are still a shameless villain!"
...
...
"Even if we are crude and ignorant of culture, at least we know how to be loyal and defend our country!"
"I am a hundred times better than you, the treacherous and treacherous officials who talk about morality all day long but do nothing and only harm the people."
The words were harsh and really rubbed the scholar's face hard on the ground.
Qin Xiang was extremely upset, but he argued nonchalantly, "The hegemony of the world must be held by a capable person. Your loyalty and bravery are nothing but foolish loyalty."
"Duke Yang, you and I just have different positions."
"Stop now." Qin Honghao's eyes fell on Qin Wu, "Kill Qin Wu to show your willingness, and I will let you live."
"The country needs you military commanders to protect it. When the new emperor ascends the throne, he will naturally reuse you."
"Think carefully, do you want your wife and daughter to die in this coup and fulfill your foolish loyalty, or do you want to submit to the new emperor and still be able to defend your country and serve the people of the world?"
The words were so nice that Qin Wu couldn't help but applaud.
Hypocritical words can sound so beautiful and noble, no wonder Qin Honghao can become the prime minister.
At the same time, everyone's eyes fell on Qin Wu, and everyone had different thoughts.
There were about ten military generals who had military power in the capital.
Although these people are all on good terms with Duke Yang's Mansion, they have no choice but to waver when the lives of their wives and daughters are threatened.
Especially since Deputy General Huang’s wife was killed by Qin Honghao, they didn’t want the same thing to happen to them.
Deputy General Huang was heartbroken. He lost his wife and wanted to kill Qin Honghao, but he couldn't gamble with his daughter's life.
He was the first to speak, "Duke Yang, I know I am immoral and selfish. I cannot watch my daughter die. The wives and daughters of other brothers are still in the hands of Prime Minister Qin. Killing her can save the lives of my daughter and the wives and daughters of other brothers."
"If you want to stop me from killing her, then I can only apologize."
As Deputy General Huang pointed his spear at Qin Wu, several other people also expressed their intention to kill Qin Wu.
"You are so confused!" Duke Yang is a veteran of three dynasties. Even Qin Honghao has not experienced as many things as he has. How could he not understand the current situation?
Qin Honghao can guarantee that his words will sound nice now, but people like him will definitely be wiped out completely after they have used them up!
"Then we can't care so much. My wife and daughter are in his hands. I can't do anything. As long as my wife and daughter can survive, even if the Duke wants my life, I will never say no."
Deputy General Huang then looked at Qin Wu and said, "Qin Wu, after I save my daughter, if I am still alive, I will definitely build a temple for you, so that my family can worship you for generations to come for your grace of saving my life with your death..."
"Huang Yi, you are bullshitting!" This was the first time that Madam Yang cursed. "I want to kill you and then make an offering to you. Are you willing?"
"Qin Honghao is a despicable and shameless person. He uses your wives and daughters to threaten you for his own benefit. If we capture him now, we can save the safety of your wives and daughters.
If we really listened to him, he would kill Qin Wu now, and the next thing he would do is to kill us. ”
Qin Honghao held the dagger against the neck of Deputy General Huang's daughter and spoke slowly.
"Oh, the entire Upper Kyoto is already in my possession. Even if you resist, it will be in vain."
"Your wife and children are here to attend the Queen's palace banquet."
"The Queen originally wanted to incite you to stand on her side and make the eldest prince the crown prince."
"The emperor should have passed away by now. You can either support the second prince or the eldest prince. No matter who you support, you must make a choice."
"What a pity! Now the Queen is imprisoned, and your wife and daughter are in my hands."
"It's always worth it to stand on my side."
He looked at Deputy General Huang and said, "I'll count to five. If you don't kill Qin Wu, I'll have to take her life first."
"Of course, as long as I give a signal, all the other imprisoned ladies will die in the fire in the palace..."
"five!"
"Four!"
"I'm sorry!" Lieutenant General Huang raised his spear and rushed towards Qin Wu.
His daughter was captured, and he really couldn't bear to watch his wife and daughter die in front of him. That would make him not only not a human being, but also unfit to be a husband and father.
Qin Wu looked at Deputy General Huang and others expressionlessly. There was no fear in her eyes, nor any contempt. She was just very calm.
Qin Wu was not at all surprised by their choice.
If it were her, she would also choose a person who has nothing to do with her to sacrifice in order to save the lives of her loved ones.
Looking up again, Qin Wu met Qin Honghao's eyes, with a cold murderous look in her eyes.
The one who deserves to die is Qin Honghao.
After all, it was the other party who ordered her to do so. If she wanted to kill someone, it would be Qin Honghao.
She was very grateful to Qin Honghao for saving her life. After all, she was a princess of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. If he hadn't taken her back, she might have died at the hands of other enemy countries.
But, one thing is for sure, she died in her previous life, and her kindness has been repaid to them, she no longer owes them a penny.
"I will solve it myself, don't interfere." Qin Wu said to Duke Yang and others.
She had already asked Ye You and others to rescue these people's wives and daughters. There was no signal of successful rescue yet, so she had to wait a while.
Now we can only delay for a while.
Duke Yang gritted his teeth, furious, and wanted to yell at Qin Honghao, calling him a son of a bitch, but he had no choice but to hold it back.
After all, if she scolded him for venting her anger, he would really dare to kill Huang Yi's daughter.
Of course, they also knew that Qin Wu was a smart and capable person. After all, it was she who informed them earlier to be prepared.
Qin Wu and Deputy General Huang started fighting.
Qin Wu had several bruises on her body and looked very embarrassed, but she suffered no actual harm.
"General Huang, I'm sorry that I couldn't save your wife. Please believe me, as long as you cooperate with me, I will definitely be able to save your daughter and will never let her die."
