A moment later, Lin Shuwen, who was tied up, was dragged to the top of the city gate tower by the palace guards.
Lin Shuwen had a large ball of stinky rags stuffed in his mouth. He stared at Emperor Wu of Liang with a pair of horrified eyes and shook his head vigorously.
"Wu--hmm---"
Seeing the rebels in red uniforms on the opposite side, Lin Shuwen was so scared that tears burst out.
Why bring him here to fight?
What's the meaning of tying him up? He and that rebellious girl have already broken off their relationship, so why are they still treating him like this?
How did this rebellious girl Lin Taotao coax Emperor Wu of Liang? She couldn't even protect her father.
Lin Shuwen stuck his butt out, dug his feet into the ground, and refused to get close to the parapet.
But in the eyes of the palace guards, his struggle was like a tickle and was not worth watching at all.
The palace guards pushed Lin Shuwen to the parapet like a chicken.
Lin Shuwen lowered his head as much as possible, fearing that he would be killed instantly by the crossbow arrow from the opposite side.
Emperor Wu of Liang looked at Lin Shuwen's useless appearance and his face darkened.
"If you continue to struggle, I'll hang you on the city gate."
Emperor Wu of Liang felt a throbbing headache as he looked at the rebels approaching the city.
Before the 200,000 troops he mobilized arrived, the rebels attacked directly.
Originally, Bai Hong was supposed to lead an army of 200,000 out of the city and engage in a decisive battle with the rebels 20 kilometers outside the city gate.
Now the rebels have been forced directly to the city gate.
There are barely 50,000 soldiers defending the capital. How can they fight against the endless rebel army on the opposite side?
Emperor Wu of Liang was both angry and afraid. His personal expedition was a joke, and he could only boost morale from the city gate tower.
When Lin Shuwen heard what Emperor Wu of Liang said, his whole body trembled. He turned his head and stared at Emperor Wu of Liang, shaking his head frantically.
No.
No matter what, he is still the father-in-law of Emperor Wu of Liang.
How could you treat him like this?
Emperor Wu of Liang frowned slightly and looked at Lin Shuwen with a gloomy expression.
"As long as you can get Lin Yiran to persuade Xiao Yunzhan to give up resistance, I will make Lin Taotao a noble concubine."
"If you can't persuade me..."
Emperor Wu of Liang sneered, his cold eyes swept across Lin Shuwen's neck, and he didn't say anything else.
When Lin Shuwen met Emperor Wu of Liang's gaze, he felt a chill on his neck and unconsciously shrank his neck.
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Shuwen made up his mind and nodded vigorously at Emperor Wu of Liang.
He had no choice.
If you stick your head out, you will get a knife. If you hide your head, you will get a knife too. You have no choice but to fight.
Anyway, that damn girl Lin Yiran has always been very weak, so what he said should have some effect.
Emperor Wu of Liang winked at the palace guards, who immediately removed the cloth from Lin Shuwen's mouth.
Lin Shuwen's mouth had been kept open for a long time and he couldn't close it for a long time.
Eunuch Yu smelled the stench coming from Lin Shuwen's mouth and frowned unconsciously.
He raised his eyelids and glanced at Emperor Wu of Liang. Seeing the look of disgust on Emperor Wu's face, he took a step forward, raised his hand and lifted Lin Shuwen's chin up with force.
"Crack!" Lin Shuwen felt the teeth collide with each other and directly pinch the tip of his tongue.
“Ah~hiss!”
Lin Shuwen's expression was distorted with pain, and he bent his waist and gasped continuously.
Damn eunuch.
After Lin Taotao became a royal concubine, he asked Eunuch Yu to lick his feet.
"Master Lin, please come in."
Eunuch Yu noticed Emperor Wu of Liang's impatient look and hurriedly urged him.
Can't you see that the other side has already prepared the catapult? Why are you still making such a fuss?
The palace guards received the signal from Eunuch Yu and immediately grabbed Lin Shuwen's back and made him face outside the city wall.
Xiao Yunzhan used a telescope to see the situation on the city gate tower clearly.
"Of course, Emperor Wu of Liang put you---"
Thinking that Lin Yiran had severed ties with Lin Shuwen, he immediately changed his words.
"Lin Shuwen is on the city gate tower."
"Who cares?" Lin Yiran didn't care about Lin Shuwen at all. She raised the crossbow in her hand and wanted to aim at Emperor Wu of Liang.
But Emperor Wu of Liang was very cunning. He was blocked by several waves of people in front of him, leaving no place for him to attack.
When Xiao Yunzhan saw Lin Yiran's actions, his pupils trembled with fear.
What's going on? Is she going to attack Lin Shuwen?
"Tsk!" Lin Yiran smacked her lips, "I can't aim."
"Let Dad have a quarrel with Bai Hong first."
Lin Yiran put down the crossbow and turned to look at Xiao Yunzhan.
Xiao Yunzhan glanced at the crossbow in Lin Yiran's hand and looked at his father.
(Note: The act of shouting at each other before a standoff between two armies is called a "verbal fight" or "verbal exchange." There are profound tactical and psychological considerations behind this behavior.)
General Xiao couldn't wait any longer. As soon as Bai Hong finished speaking, he spurred his horse forward and started yelling at the other side.
"Open your dog eyes wide and take a good look at who I am."
"You framed a loyal and good person. You are so unkind and unjust..."
"A tyrant ruler should be punished by everyone."
"A foolish ruler is unjust and disrupts government order, and the people suffer greatly."
"Your Majesty, I didn't expect that I'm still alive."
"Ha ha....."
General Xiao's deep voice rang out all the way and exploded directly into the ears of everyone on the city gate tower.
Bai Hong suddenly widened his eyes and stretched his neck out of the city wall.
After a moment, Bai Hong looked as if he had seen a ghost, and took several steps back in disbelief.
"That's... Xiao Guoliang!!!"
"Impossible—absolutely impossible—"
"Isn't Xiao Guoliang dead?"
