Wen Rengui sneered and said: "Yuwen Chengchao, I see you are also a seven-foot man, but I didn't expect you to be so shameless. Was Zuo Jun deceived by you?"

"Just last night, the Zuo Army and the Taihu Army joined forces to annihilate the Suzhou Camp." Yuwen Chengchao picked up the wine bowl, drank from it, and said calmly: "The Suzhou Camp was completely wiped out, and the Zuo Army also made great contributions.

."

The iron shackles clanked, and Wen Rengui had already stood up. He looked at Yuwen Chengchao with hatred and said sternly: "That's nonsense. The Suzhou camp is so elite, how can it lose to you?"

"So you don't even trust your own subordinates?" Yuwen Chengchao smiled sarcastically: "In the battle last night, your subordinates made great contributions. Even the princess admired them very much."

Wen Rengui clenched his fists, veins popping out: "How could they believe you?"

"They believe you." Yu Wen Chengchao put down the wine bowl, poured it himself, and said calmly: "It was you who led them to attack the flank when Suzhou Camp was attacking the city, so they felt that you were indeed targeting Suzhou Camp as an enemy. You

They knew everything about bringing people into the city, and they all thought you were the surrendered princess. You paved the way for me, so I led them to attack the Suzhou camp. Of course they thought it was your intention and would not have the slightest doubt."

After a pause, he smiled faintly: "It was you who introduced me to General Zuo Shen in the first place. They all knew that you and I were friends, so I led them to charge into the battle for you, and they naturally obeyed my orders."

"Shameless!" Wen Rengui roared: "You despicable and shameless person, I...!" He was frightened and angry, and he didn't know what to say for a moment, and suddenly rushed towards Yu Wen Chengchao, who couldn't sit upright.

Move, and said in a deep voice: "Whether you want to take action or not, you can decide after you finish talking."

Wen Rengui paused for a moment, but still said sharply: "I have nothing to say to you."

"You don't care about their life or death?" Yuwen Chengchao said coldly.

Wen Rengui stared at Yuwen Chengchao and said sternly: "What do you want?"

"Wen Rengui, do you know what your biggest mistake is?" Yu Wen Chengchao stared at Wen Rengui and said calmly: "Those people under your command think you are a wise man who strategizes. In fact, in my eyes, you are brave but not wise.

His vision is extremely different, otherwise he wouldn't be like a bereaved dog wandering around from Qingzhou to Jiangnan."

Wen Rengui's eyes were like daggers, but he was not angry but smiling. He actually sat down opposite Yu Wencheng, picked up the wine bowl with his shackled hands, and drank it all in one gulp.

Yuwen Chengchao picked up the wine jar, poured it for him, and then said: "Your biggest mistake is to find a flag that has absolutely no chance of success."

"What's the meaning?"

"Your purpose is to eradicate the Xiahou clan and restore Li Tang." Yuwen Cheng said: "I just ask you, why do you think you can do it?"

Wen Rengui sneered: "Whether I can do it or not, this is my lifelong ambition."

"A person who has a goal is worthy of respect, but if he only shouts slogans without extraordinary strategies to achieve the goal, that is stupid." Yu Wen Chengchao said lightly: "Without a thorough plan, your so-called lifelong ambition is just

a joke."

Wen Rengui snorted coldly, picked up the wine bowl again, and drank it all in one gulp.

"You want to eradicate the Xiahou clan with the help of the Queen Mother's Association. It seems smart, but in fact it is foolish." Yuwen Chengchao sighed: "Do you think you can shake the Xiahou clan with these monsters? Jiangnan Queen Mother's Association, Qian

The family and other aristocratic families are worried about their future and are fighting to the death with the imperial court. Those red belts are just bewitched by evil words, while the black belts are almost all deceived or forcibly pulled into the team. I just ask you, what will happen to such a team?

Unpopular with the people?"

Wen Rengui's lips moved slightly, but no sound came out.

"If you want to achieve a great cause, you can only rely on a few knives in your hand. You may be able to do it quickly, but in the end you will not be able to achieve it." Yu Wen Chengchao looked into Wen Rengui's eyes and said: "You find the Queen Mother Association, but no matter whether the Qian family or the so-called

General Netherworld, do these people really have the hearts of the people? The Jiangnan Rebellion has been a farce from the beginning and is destined to fail." After a pause, his expression became grim and he said: "Jiangnan is not Xiling, this is the Tang Dynasty's taxation.

In this important land, if there is even the slightest change, the imperial court will attack no matter how much it pays, and will not give Jiangnan any chance to breathe. Do you think you can blackmail the imperial court by controlling the princess? The land of Jiangnan Water Town, geographically speaking, has no surprises.

The danger can be defended, and what can barely be called a barrier are just some waterways, but these waterways are controlled by the fishermen of Taihu Lake, and the Jiangnan family is incompatible with the fishermen of Taihu Lake, so they lost control of the waterways from the beginning."

Wen Rengui took the wine jar himself and filled the wine bowl with wine.

"Jiangnan has rebelled, and the imperial court wants to attack. You have no danger to defend, but you are counting on the bandits around the empire to take advantage of the situation and respond." Yuwen Chengchao smiled and said: "Don't you think the strategy from the beginning was ridiculous?" He paused.

, he picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, then put down the wine bowl and continued: "If You Ming is a fool, how can the Queen Mother Association led by him win? If he is so smart, how can he not understand the Queen Mother Association of Jiangnan?

There is no chance of winning at all? I even think that You Ming never thought that the Queen Mother of Suzhou would succeed from the beginning."

Wen Rengui sneered: "If he thought that the Queen Mother of Suzhou would not succeed, why did he spend so many years and energy on the deployment here?"

"I can't answer this question." Yuwen Chengchao said: "But I know that during the Suzhou Rebellion, even if your left army did not rebel and even joined forces with the Suzhou Battalion to capture Shuning City, the final result would be

, and it is still a place to die without burial. Although the Tang Dynasty is no longer as powerful as it was in the past, if it targets Jiangnan and quells the chaos in Jiangnan at all costs, the Queen Mother of Suzhou will definitely be defeated, and the Tang army will definitely destroy all

The rebels were killed, including those under your command."

"Alarmist." Wen Rengui snorted coldly.

Yuwen Chengchao smiled calmly and said: "Whether it is alarmist or not, you will understand if you think about it carefully. In the battle last night, your group of men made military exploits. Although the princess did not express it clearly, it can be seen that she will try her best to preserve these

As long as you have the protection of the princess, at least they will not follow you to death. So this time I led them to perform a feat to pull them back from the edge of the cliff. If you are still worrying about their life and death, you should naturally thank them for them.

I."

Wen Rengui burst out laughing and mocked: "Yuwen Chengchao, the wind and sand in the northwest are so severe that your face is as thick as a city wall. How can you have the nerve to say such shameless words?"

"I came here today just for the sake of our friendship, so that you won't worry about me before you die." Yuwen Chengchao stood up and said: "They will follow me in the future, and I will try my best to help them take off the label of rebelling against the party.

, so you don’t have to worry about their future path.”

Wen Rengui was startled, then smiled and said: "So you are here to kill me?"

"As long as you are alive, there are risks." Yuwen Chengchao said calmly: "I do not allow risks to exist."

Wen Rengui looked at Yu Wen Chengchao and said with a smile: "You are not a gentleman if you are petty, and you are not a husband if you are not poisonous. Yu Wen Chengchao, you are indeed a person who can achieve great things."

Yuwen Chengchao was silent for a moment, then said: "Actually, I have the same ideal as you, and I also hope that the Tang Dynasty can regain its former glory. You and I have the same goal, but the path is different. I know that with your temperament, I can't persuade you.

You and I walking on the same path may even become a hidden danger."

"You are right." Wen Rengui seemed unusually calm at this moment: "If you let me get out alive, you will be the first person I want to kill, and I will still lead my old troops to fight with the Xiahou family until death."

Yu Wen Chengchao stared at Wen Rengui, remained silent for a long time, and finally said: "Maybe one day, I will help you realize your long-cherished wish."

"You?" Wen Rengui said with a disdainful smile: "You think it's easy for you to achieve what I can't do?"

Yu Wen Chengchao shook his head and said: "I have never thought this matter is easy, but I know better than you. In order to achieve your goal, you must have a banner that can truly win the hearts of the people. A banner that cannot win the hearts of the people will ultimately be your own.

Seeking death."

"Have you found a banner that wins the hearts of the people?"

"No." Yuwen Chengchao seemed to be answering Wen Rengui, and seemed to be muttering to himself: "I am looking for it, and I believe I will find it sooner or later."

Wen Rengui picked up the wine bowl, drank it all in one gulp, raised his hand to wipe the wine stains from the corner of his mouth, looked at Yu Wen Chengchao and said: "If you really do it one day, you can come to my grave and tell me...

.!" Then he laughed at himself: "Of course there won't be any grave after I die."

"On the day when your long-cherished wish comes true, I will personally erect a monument for you." Yuwen Chengchao took out a small porcelain vase from his arms and placed it on the table: "It can give you a ride without pain."

Wen Rengui laughed and said: "You are still a loyal person after all." He reached for the small porcelain bottle and poured the poison in the porcelain bottle into the wine bowl. When he was about to take the wine jar, Yuwen Chengchao had already picked it up first.

The wine jar was filled with wine for him.

Wen Rengui picked up the wine bowl, looked at the wine in the bowl, was silent for a moment, and then raised his head and said: "You are right, they follow me, there is no way to survive. You take them, find a way for them to live, and try your best to protect them

.”

"I swear to you with my life." Yuwen Chengchao solemnly said, "I will do my best."

Wen Rengui smiled and said: "This way I have nothing to worry about. Yuwen Chengchao, remember your words and help me fulfill my wish!"

"Okay!" Yuwen Chengchao nodded and said, "Is there anything else you want to explain?"

"No more." Wen Rengui raised his head and drank the bowl of poisoned wine in one gulp. He put down the wine bowl and said with a smile: "By the way, I really thought of one thing. If possible, send my bones back to Qingzhou and find them wherever you want.

Let's bury it somewhere, that's my home. I've been traveling around for many years and I don't want to die in a foreign land."
