Li Er, three years after three years, I have been enthroned

Chapter 32: The royal city is destroyed and the King of Goryeo surrenders (please recommend and follow up on reading)
Pyongyang City, inside the palace.

In the palace hall, Gao Yuan sat on the throne with his eyes closed and said nothing.

The civil and military officials below also bowed their heads and remained silent, but beads of sweat oozed from the foreheads of many people.

And if you look carefully, it is not difficult to find that there are not many civil and military personnel in the huge palace hall.

"Your Majesty."

The veteran minister Yuan Taizuo called out.

"Ah."

Gao Yuan responded and slowly opened his eyes.

"Your Majesty, let's go!"

Yuan Taizuo said with a trembling voice.

"Let's go there?"

Gao Yuan smiled bitterly.

Now that things have happened, many people believe that Pyongyang City must be destroyed.

Moreover, it was heard that the frontline city had been defeated, and a lot of time had passed since the last report on the military situation.

The military intelligence report no longer appeared, and many ministers in the DPRK did not come to attend the DPRK. They had obviously already arrived.

This situation can be called a desperate situation.

But when the palace is built, there must be an escape tunnel, which can be regarded as a glimmer of hope.

"Your Majesty, in this vast world there is no place for you. If you stay in the palace, it will really be over."

Yuan Taizuo continued to persuade.

"I am a royal family. Since God wants to destroy Goguryeo, let them destroy it."

Gao Yuan said lightly.

Even when faced with a life or death crisis, Rao still has his own style.

Hearing this, Yuan Taizuo just sighed.

"You can leave first. There is no need to stay. Everyone else can leave if they want."

Gao Yuan said casually.

"This"

Yuan Taizuo was anxious and looked at the other civil and military officials with a stern look.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will take my leave."

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, your situation is over, I'll be leaving soon."

The other civil and military officials spoke one after another.

"Ha ha."

Gao Yuan sneered twice when he heard this.

It seemed that he had already guessed that these civil and military officials had such faces.

Before Gao Yuan could say anything more, these civil and military ministers who were greedy for life and fearful of death hurriedly walked out of the hall.

It seems that if they slow down even half a step, they will die here together with Gao Yuan.

"what!"

Not long after these people walked out, they heard several screams.

"This"

Yuan Taizuo was stunned for a moment, not understanding what happened.

"You are a veteran, and only you can leave. Anyone else who leaves would be treason."

Gao Yuan said in a deep voice.

After hearing this, Yuan Taizuo understood that there must be many palace guards ambushing outside the palace.

As soon as these civil and military ministers went out, they were immediately killed.

Only Yuan Taizuo could leave the palace.

"Ugh."

Yuan Taizuo sighed.

Those who could walk did not walk, but those who could not walk walked faster than anyone else.

But in the end, he failed to leave the palace and ended up dying in the palace.

"kill"

At this time, even in the palace hall, you can hear the sound of shouting and killing.

Hearing this movement, Yuan Taizuo knew that the Sui army had entered the palace.

"Your Majesty, I really can't leave now."

Yuan Taizuo smiled bitterly.

"Since you can't leave, just wait until the end."

Gao Yuan said calmly.

After saying that, he also hummed a Goguryeo ditty.

Yuan Taizuo said nothing, slowly arranged his clothes, and took out a piece of white cloth.

When Gao Yuan heard the noise, he just opened his eyes and glanced at Yuan Taizuo, then closed his eyes and continued humming.

Yuan Taizuo found a high place, hung the white cloth on it, and put a few futons under the white cloth.

This posture is to hang yourself.

Yuan Taizuo knew that he could not leave and would eventually die, so he chose to end his life in this way.

Even if he died, he would still be in the palace where he had served for almost half his life.

Gao Yuan knew Yuan Taizuo's thoughts with just one glance.

But he didn't stop him. Since Yuan Taizuo wanted to do this, he would let him do it.

Let him die with dignity, which can be regarded as the last journey for Yuan Taizuo.

"Your Majesty, I am on my way first."

Having prepared everything, Yuan Taizuo glared with his feet, causing the cushions to collapse.

Almost at the same time, the shouts of killing outside the palace became louder and louder until they finally disappeared completely.

Yuan Taizuo died without even making a sound. "boom"

There was a loud noise, and the palace door was kicked open.

As the door was kicked open, a dazzling light shone in.

Gao Yuan slowly opened his eyes and saw a young man standing under the light.

The young man came slowly, his eyes calm.

"You are the General of Zhengdong, the guy who conquered Liaodong with three arrows, right?"

Gao Yuan suddenly asked.

"Yes."

Yang Zhao replied.

Yu Zhongwen and others who came in after him were shocked when they saw Yuan Taizuo hanging himself to death.

Yang Zhao didn't do anything to Gao Yuan, but was waiting for something.

After a while, there was the sound of footsteps.

Yang Guang, surrounded by Lai Hu'er, Yu Wenshu and others, finally arrived at the palace hall.

"See Your Majesty."

Yu Zhongwen and others saluted one after another.

Yang Guang just nodded his head slightly, as a way of saying yes.

"His Majesty."

Yang Zhao also saluted.

"No courtesy, well done."

Yang Guang paused in front of Yang Zhao, and then walked to Gao Yuan.

"When you see me, why don't you kneel down?"

He looked at Gao Yuan and asked.

"See His Majesty Sui."

Gao Yuan took a deep breath and saluted Yang Guang.

This ceremony is still a ceremony of kneeling and worshiping.

"It's not bad. I know who wins and loses."

Yang Guang said with satisfaction.

"Yes, the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy. Goguryeo loses."

Gao Yuan smiled bitterly.

"If I knew today, why was it in the first place?"

Yang Guang asked back.

Hearing this, Gao Yuan did not answer.

"Don't worry, Goguryeo is just leaving first, there will be other barbarians accompanying you in the future."

Yang Guang came closer and lowered his voice.

"Your Majesty, please escort this man back to Chang'an and behead him?"

Yu Wenshu suggested.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Lai Huer followed suit.

In this way, the victory of this battle can be declared, and at the same time, the intimidation power of the Sui Chamber of Commerce can be increased a lot.

It can also stabilize people's hearts, which has many benefits.

"Yang Zhao, what do you think?"

Yang Guang did not respond, but looked at Yang Zhao not far away and asked.

"The minister agrees."

Yang Zhao replied.

"Okay, let's keep it for now, but let's have some good food and drink. After all, he was once the king of Goguryeo."

Yang Guang ordered.

"promise."

Yu Zhongwen stepped forward to take the order.

"This is me, giving you the final dignity."

Yang Guang said to Gao Yuan again.

"The last dignity?"

Gao Yuan smiled bitterly, then laughed maniacally.

Amidst the loud laughter, Gao Yuan was taken away.

"Remove this chair."

Yang Guang ordered.

Lai Huer immediately asked someone to do it, evacuated the chair and replaced it with Yang Guang's dragon chair.

"Quickly clean the battlefield and clear away the remaining enemies."

Yang Guang followed the instructions.

"promise."

Yu Wenshu and others took the order.

"Yang Zhaoqing's family, please take a rest. You have made great achievements in this expedition, and you are my great meritorious official!"

Yang Guang said sonorously and forcefully.

Everyone present heard it clearly.

"Your Majesty, this is just my duty."

Yang Zhao replied humbly.
