Jiankang, Tingwei Department, Tianlao.
In the deepest iron gate, Liu Yu was wearing a big yoke and five or six fine steel chains wrapped around his body. He was leaning against the wall with his eyes closed. It had been more than a month since he was captured by Liu Laozhi. He stayed here for more than half a month, during which he was interrogated by Diao Kui many times. The words he said at the Yellow River were still repeated over and over again. I don’t know whether it was because of his great reputation or because Diao Kui was greeted by someone. Liu Yu had not been tortured this time. He just wore the shackles and chains every day. Even a strong man would feel numb in his hands and feet and feel weak all over.
A bird landed on the sill outside the iron window and looked at Liu Yu curiously. Maybe it didn't know why this world-famous warrior was imprisoned here like this. Liu Yu looked at The bird sighed softly: "If I could be as free as you, flying high in the sky, then I would be willing to do anything you want."
A burst of footsteps came closer and closer. Liu Yu's hearing was very good. His ears moved, and the little bird seemed to sense something. It flapped its wings and flew away. Liu Yu's eyes returned to the huge iron door. There, the door was slowly opened, and a breath of fresh air came from the outside. Of course, this freshness was only relative to this stinky cell, where every thatch exuded the smell of feces and urine. And a black, slender figure, accompanied by more than a dozen capable guards, slowly entered.
Liu Yu looked at the face of the visitor. He was almost certain that under the black cloak, there would be a cold bronze mask. Most likely, it was the damn Qinglong. But when the visitor lifted the cloak, When his true face was revealed, Liu Yu opened his eyes wide in surprise. It was a face with black skin and thick lips, but it was the current emperor, the emperor of the Jin Dynasty - Sima Yao.
Sima Yao had been given a bed by the guards long ago, so he sat on the bed like this and looked at Liu Yu calmly: "When Feishui was victorious and prisoners were paraded in Jiankang City, I personally sealed you. You were honored as the first warrior of the Beifu Army. At that time, you were cheered and admired by thousands of soldiers and civilians. Even I was a little envious. But I didn't expect that a few years later, we would be in this place, in this way. Meet."
Liu Yu gritted his teeth, stood up, knelt down to Sima Yao, and tried his best to bend down and salute. The big shackle stuck his head and couldn't make contact with the ground. He could only say in this strange posture: " Liu Yu, a common man, has met your Majesty, long live your Majesty."
Sima Yao sighed and waved his hand: "That's all. When I heard that you actually collaborated with the enemy and treason, I was heartbroken and shocked beyond measure. I never thought that our warriors and heroes of the Jin Dynasty would actually become traitors, Liu Yu , do you know how I spent that period of time?"
Liu Yu raised his head and said sternly: "Your Majesty, the common people are fiercely loyal to the Jin Dynasty, and the sun can tell. There has never been any act of treason with the enemy. Your Majesty, please be careful!"
A trace of anger flashed in Sima Yao's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Liu Yu, do you still want to make excuses now? During the previous court hearings, I have been listening in the back. The evidence is solid, and I cannot help you to defend yourself here. ,refute!"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "It turns out that it was because His Majesty was listening to the trial at the back that Diao Kui did not dare to use torture. Then the common people have to thank Your Majesty."
Sima Yao gritted his teeth: "Liu Yu, I came to see you today because I am afraid that Diao Kui will deliberately frame you because of his grudge with you, so I must come in person to ask you the truth of the matter. If you have anything to say, I will tell you here today. You can make it clear in front of me, and don’t say that I didn’t give you a chance.”
Liu Yu said calmly: "Your Majesty, the Caomin did marry Murong Lan, the princess of the Yan Kingdom, but the Caomin did not do anything to disgrace the Jin Dynasty or collaborate with the enemy and treason. On the contrary, it was Murong Lan who was inspired by the Caomin and served the Jin Dynasty many times. Jin's contribution, even in this battle of Luoyang, was a great success, as the common people made it clear during the trial."
Sima Yao sneered: "Even if you marry Murong Lan secretly and remain anonymous, you are still treasonous with the enemy. As a soldier, do you still want to deny this?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "The common people do not agree with your Majesty's statement. If a foreigner falls in love with and continues to marry someone from a foreign country, it is treason. Then the Queen Mother is not from China. Does it mean that your Majesty also has a problem?"
Sima Yao was stunned at first, then his eyes widened and he roared: "How brave! You, how dare you say such crazy words!"
Liu Yu said sternly: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry, the common people have read very few books, and they don't have the big principles in the books of the literati. I can only tell these things that the common people know. The common people think that love occurs between men and women, and then they get married. It's a matter of course. Cao Min and Murong Lan got to know each other because they protected their family and country, established the Beifu Army, and cooperated with Murong Chui to overthrow the former Qin Dynasty. They have been together through life and death for so many years. Human beings are not grass and trees. Cao Min almost died several times. She was rescued by her at that time, and eventually they fell in love and got married, which had nothing to do with the affairs of their family and country. The common people never revealed any information about the Jin Dynasty's military plans to her, nor did they let her do anything to betray the Jin Dynasty. The common people felt magnanimous in their hearts. Have a clear conscience!”
Sima Yao sneered and said: "That's nonsense! You took her with you to participate in the military aircraft. She knows everything about our army. Why do you need to reveal anything more? Our army's northern expedition to Hebei failed several times, and every time it fell into the hands of Murong In Chui's trap, if it wasn't the information she leaked, what could it be?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "Your Majesty, the common people have very certain information. The person who betrayed our army is definitely not Murong Lan. Let's not talk about anything else. I just said that during the first battle of Yecheng, she broke up with me after Chang'an. We She knew nothing about the military planes of the Beifu Army, and it was even more impossible for her to get them from me, because Liu Yingyang did not even enter Yecheng at that time, and was pursuing Murong Chui for a long time. No one had told me about this military information, and it was because of me I realized that the situation was not good, so I took the initiative to find Da Jun, but it was still half a step too late. There was someone else who was the traitor that time, and it was definitely not Murong Lan!"
Sima Yao's expression changed: "What? There is someone else who is the traitor? Who is it? Tell me and I will investigate strictly!"
Liu Yu sighed: "Your Majesty, if you want to know about this person, please answer a question first. Who is the real master of the Jin Dynasty today?"
Sima Yao was so angry that he stood up from the bed and said sternly: "Liu Yu, don't you want to live? How dare you question my authority? Do you believe that I will kill you now?!"
Liu Yu smiled slightly, looked at Sima Yao's trembling face, and was distorted by extreme anger, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, it is easy for you to kill the common people, but you can kill those who control the land, taxes, army, and even the Jin Dynasty." Is it the aristocratic family that controls your life and death?"
