Chapter 159: Desperately Protecting
Li Yu can understand Tao Yuan, but Tao Xiying can understand it too.
She asked in tears: "In order to save the world and the people, you are going to sacrifice my mother?"
Tao Yuan lowered his head, unable to help but burst into tears.
In his life, the most sorry thing he is his wife and his father-in-law's family.
Han Sui sighed and said, "How hard did the people of Jinzhou have been doing back then..."
He didn't know at all, nor did the emperor know...
Tao Yuan wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve and said, "It's not just the people in Jinzhou that suffer? Wherever the people still have a way out, who will risk losing their heads and rise up and plot against rebellion?"
Han Sui was shocked.
The demise of the Great Qi was not caused by a few rebels, but was already rotten to the bottom of the problem.
He asked softly, "Now, how is the life of the people in the world?"
Tao Yuan nodded and said, "Your Majesty has not broken your promise. Your Majesty has indeed fulfilled his promise. At present, the world is peaceful, the people live and work in peace, and all industries are prosperous."
"That's right!"
Han Sui smiled and said, "The Great Zhou replaces the Great Qi, at least it will benefit the people of the world."
As he spoke, he looked at Li Yu and asked, "I wonder, who is Li Hui's son?"
"Seventeenth son."
Han Sui said oh, and said with a smile: "Li Hui was the most difficult and most difficult time, you didn't catch up."
Li Hui did not overthrow the rule of Qi at once, but after more than 20 years of war, there was a period of confrontation after several years.
Li Yu shrugged, he really couldn't catch up.
Han Sui paused for a moment and asked with a smile: "Your Highness turned back again, but to kill me?"
As soon as he said this, Tao Yuan and Tao Xiying looked at Li Yu at the same time.
There was not much emotion on Li Yu's face.
He said calmly: "You were robbed in the Feiwei Mansion prison. Feiwei Mansion must give the emperor an explanation."
Tao Xiying asked subconsciously: "Do you want to take Han Yu to Feiwei Mansion?"
Li Yu said: "If Mr. Han returns to Feiwei Mansion alive, he will be tortured. Feiwei Mansion must find out who he was rescued and where he was hidden. If Mr. Han cannot bear it and tell the truth, the whole family of Duke Zhenguo's mansion will be implicated."
Tao Yuan said: "Han Sui has endured a lot of torture."
But that was the past, who could guarantee that he could still withstand it now?
Li Yu asked back: "Does Mr. Tao take risks with his whole family's lives?"
Tao Yuan's face changed and his speech was insane.
yes!
If Han Sui was allowed to return to Feiwei Mansion alive, it would be really gambled with the lives of the whole family.
Tao Xiying hurriedly protected Han Sui and said loudly: "No! I won't let you kill Han Yuen!"
Li Yu looked at Tao Xiying and said word by word: "Originally, Mr. Han didn't have to die! It was you! It was you who killed him! Your saving people is actually killing people!"
As long as Han Sui is still alive, Tao Yuan's family is in danger.
Moreover, Han Sui also saw that Li Yu had just deliberately let him go.
Therefore, his life is also a danger to Li Yu.
Tao Xiying heard Li Yu's words and looked pale. She opened her arms and protected Han Sui even more tightly. She said anxiously: "Your Highness, you have saved Han Yuen once just now! Please, save Han Yuen once more!"
Li Yu shook his head and said, "Sorry, I can't do anything."
Han Sui can't escape from the capital now.
As long as he leaves the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion and cannot even walk two streets, he will be discovered by the spies of Feiwei Mansion.
Seeing that Li Yu was determined, Tao Xiying suddenly pulled out a shaky dagger from her cuff, pressed the sharpness of the dagger directly on her neck, and said, "If Your Highness insists on killing Han Yu Envoy, I will commit suicide!"
Seeing the sharp edge of the dagger pierce the flesh of Tao Xiying's neck instantly, and blood beads seeped out, Tao Yuan was so scared that he staggered forward two steps and shouted: "Xiying!"
You girl, you really can kill yourself!
Li Yu said meaningfully: "Miss Tao, your grandfather and mother did die because of Mr. Tao, but Mr. Tao did not intend to kill them, but had to make sacrifices for the sake of the people of the world. I don't ask you to forgive your father, but I also hope you don't harm your father again!"
Tao Xiying burst into tears. She still pressed her dagger against her neck, and knelt on the ground with a thud and sobbed, saying, "Dad! My daughter begs you to save Han Yuen!"
Looking at Tao Xiying who was crying indescribable, Tao Yuan sighed inwardly.
These are all debts!
Children's debt!
He bowed to Li Yushen and said, "Your Highness!"
Li Yu understood Tao Yuan’s meaning.
Even at the risk of destroying the family, he had to agree to his daughter's crying begging.
If you don’t kill Han Sui, where will you hide him?
Li Yu rubbed his forehead, looked at Han Sui, and asked, "Can Mr. Han help the remaining party in the previous dynasty?"
Han Sui shook his head slowly.
He had never thought of restoring the previous dynasty.
When Tao Xiying asked him to provide the whereabouts of the Xuan Armored Iron Guard, he kept silent.
Just now, after hearing Tao Yuan’s words, he became more determined in his thoughts.
Restoration is meaningless and will only cause chaos in the world and allow the people to return to their miserable lives.
Han Sui's words made Li Yu feel a little more at ease.
He turned his eyes and looked at Tao Xiying again, saying, "Miss Tao should be one of the remaining parties in the previous dynasty!"
Since the words were spoken out, Tao Xiying no longer concealed it and admitted directly: "Yes!"
"Your cousin, Yuan Tong, is the same as you!"
"No! My cousin is innocent..."
"He is not innocent, otherwise he would not have deliberately entered the Feiwei Mansion Prison to inquire about the situation inside the prison so as to facilitate your prison robbery."
Tao Xiying said anxiously: "My cousin has nothing to do with this matter!"
Li Yu shrugged, he didn't want to argue with Tao Xiying more.
Tao Yuan suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Li Yu.
Li Yu was shocked and quickly pulled Tao Yuan up and asked, "What is Mr. Tao doing?"
"I hope that your highness will forgive you because your daughter is young and ignorant, and I will thank you!"
Tao Xiying's actions, whether it is a prison robbery or a harboring crime, are enough for her to lose her head.
Li Yu said: "Mr. Tao, even if I don't pursue Miss Tao this time, what about next time? She will sooner or later play with fire and burn herself!"
The key is that in this era, if one person commits death, the whole family will suffer.
Tao Yuan looked embarrassed and didn't say anything for a long time.
Tao Xiying clenched her fists, and for a while, she said in a deep voice: "There will not be another next time! Your Highness, I can guarantee that from now on, I will no longer participate in the rebellion, but I would like to ask Your Highness to agree to me with a condition."
"you say."
"Don't ask me anybody about treason or anything about treason."
She could quit, but she didn't want to betray her companions.
Li Yu said: "There are two people robbing the prison, and there are still two people running away. Where are they now?"
"Your Highness, I have said that I can withdraw from the organization, but I will not say a word about the people and things in the organization!"
Li Yu and Tao Xiying looked at each other for a long time and said, "I hope Miss Tao can do what she says."
As long as Tao Xiying no longer helps the remnants of the previous dynasty and will no longer implicate Tao Yuan, Li Yu doesn't want to make things difficult for her.
Of course, this is all for Tao Yuan's sake.
