Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

"You said."

Li Yi stopped smiling now, and looked very solemn.

Others might guess that Tai Shici wanted to bribe him with money in exchange for a chance to survive, but Li Yi knew that Tai Shici was not doing this, so if he continued to smile, it would be too disrespectful, and it might not work out. Tai Shici would also feel bad for him.

Sure enough, I saw Tai Shici bowed deeply, and said in a deep voice: "It is a sin to assassinate the Marquis of Xiang. The crime deserves ten thousand deaths. There should be no more extravagant demands. However, the mother in the family is old, and now Tai Shici has made a mistake. It is extremely ashamed not to be able to serve her old man, if I bring misfortune to my mother again, even if my body is smashed to pieces, I will feel uneasy, so"

It seemed that he was a little bit out of control, Tai Shici's voice was already choked with sobs, he paused for a moment, and then continued: "In all desperation, the sin will only beg the impudence of the Marquis Xiang. If you implicate the old mother in your fault, you will be grateful for the crime, and I hope that Marquis Xiang will be merciful!"

After finishing speaking, Tai Shici bowed again and punched the ground with his head, making a dull sound.

Except for Li Yi, only Chen Dao was not too surprised by Tai Shici's request, and the rest of Dian Wei were very surprised. Let Li Yi not embarrass his mother.

This

Although it seems a little stupid and inflexible to go to death so actively, his filial piety is definitely worthy of admiration!

At this moment, even Dian Wei, who had always been brooding over that arrow, looked at Tai Shici with a lot of kindness, and he also somewhat understood why Li Yi was willing to spare Tai Shici.

Li Yi was not in a hurry to answer Tai Shici's words, but asked, "How do you know that I will lead troops north in the future?"

Tai Shici raised his head slightly, but still leaned over, and said slowly: "Hsiang Hou has lofty ambitions, and he also has a sharp-edged soldier. There is no one in the Central Plains who can do it. I am afraid that it will be a matter of time before he goes north."

Li Yi nodded, and asked again: "You exchanged your life for my promise today, aren't you afraid that I will renege on my word in the future, or that I will simply order and let everyone surround and kill you?"

This time Tai Shici paused for a long time, and then said with some difficulty: "If the sinner escapes today, and meets Xianghou in the future, the family will be implicated, and the mother in the family is old and can't bear the bumps, and the sin will be easy." I want to take my mother to live in seclusion, and it's hard to find a good place to go, so"

"Instead of this, it's better to beg the Marquis Xiang to be tolerant, maybe you can sacrifice your life for your mother's safety."

"Even if, even if the Marquis Xiang refused to allow the criminal general, he did his best."

Li Yi nodded slightly, looked at Tai Shici's eyes with admiration, pondered for a while, and asked, "Can you get married?"

Tai Shici shook his head and said: "Although the criminal general has a small amount of savings, he has never been settled, so he has not considered starting a family for the time being."

Li Yi nodded and said, "So you have no heirs anymore."

This time without waiting for Tai Shici to reply, Li Yi went on to say: "You have no wife, concubine, nor children. If you want to die, I can agree. I will not embarrass the old lady in the future, but have you ever thought about it? Hearing the sad news of your death, how would the old lady react, and you also said that the old lady is old, and it would be easy for you to die, but who will take care of the old lady, and in a few years, she will be older and have trouble moving , how should I deal with myself?"

"I"

Tai Shici has been hit too hard recently, and all he thinks about in his head is his own affairs. He didn't notice that Li Yi's tone was not the hatred that an enemy should have. On the contrary, it was very gentle. When referring to his mother, He even used a very polite name.

Regarding Li Yi's question, Tai Shici hesitated for a long time, and then murmured: "There are still some fields and houses at home, and the property I entrusted someone to send back, it should be fine."

Tai Shici originally wanted to say that he should be able to provide for his mother's death, but in the end it was difficult to say it, because in this world, if one day the flames of war are over, even if Li Yi doesn't make things difficult, if it really messes up, how can an old woman protect herself?

As for those family wealth, if no one takes care of it, it may even become a way to bring disaster.

Tai Shici knew these things all the time, but he was forced by the situation in front of him, so he didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't want to think about it, so he could only do what he could do in front of him, which could be regarded as a reluctant peace of mind.

However, Li Yi punctured it mercilessly, making it impossible for him to even deceive himself and others.

Tai Shici lay prone on the ground, clasping the seam of the ground with his hands, even though his nails were broken, he didn't seem to know it.

Now he really regrets it. For Kong Rong, he has a clear conscience, but in the end, he did not make meritorious deeds, and he was not recognized by Kong Rong. Instead, he was suspected and excluded. Now, he just wants to do something for the old mother Things are so tough.

If he had known this, he would not have shot that arrow, and even if he hadn't followed Kong Rong to Yuzhou at all, then all the embarrassing things for him would have disappeared.

Tai Shici was very desperate and wanted to cry in despair.

Just when Tai Shici was about to lose control of his emotions, Li Yi suddenly said: "For the sake of your filial piety, you might as well take your mother to Xiangyang. It is peaceful there and should make you feel at ease."

Tai Shici couldn't help being distracted, and then suddenly raised his head to look at Li Yi, which was the first time he looked at Li Yi squarely today.

Li Yi asked: "How, would you like it?"

Tai Shici had an unbelievable expression on his face, he opened his mouth, and after a while, he asked in a low voice: "Is what Xianghou said true?"

Li Yi said with a smile: "I am also sitting in the land of the three states now, with a high position and authority, so naturally I have to count my words."

A look of gratitude suddenly appeared in Tai Shici's eyes, and his body trembled slightly with excitement. The reason why he adopted such a submissive attitude to admit his mistake to Li Yi, lead him to death, and then asked Li Yi not to embarrass his mother was precisely because Because Tai Shici thinks that a person like Li Yi may have a petty side, but as long as Li Yi is vented and he regains his face, he should not deliberately embarrass a non-threatening person again.

Now Li Yi's response was better than he thought, Tai Shici felt that Li Yi was not lying to him, but was moved by his filial piety.

"Thank you, Marquis Xiang, thank you Marquis Xiang!"

Tai Shici bowed to Li Yi twice in a row, and then said cautiously: "The Marquis Xiang may forgive the crime and send a letter, just a moment."

There was a slight look of doubt in Li Yi's eyes, and he asked, "What is the letter for?"

Tai Shici said truthfully: "Naturally, I will explain the whole story to my mother. In addition, if Marquis Xiang sends someone to Qingzhou, it will be convenient for him to serve as a guide."

As soon as Tai Shici finished speaking, he saw Li Yi burst into laughter. Tai Shici's face was inexplicable. He didn't know why Li Yi was laughing. He felt that it was normal for him to write a letter to explain the situation, and he also had to make mistakes. Take it to yourself, otherwise his old mother went to Jingzhou and scolded Li Yi for killing her son every day. Even if Li Yi didn't care about it, he would not be able to live that day.

Seeing Tai Shici's puzzlement, Chen Dao couldn't help it, and seeing that Li Yi had no intention of stopping, he leaned over and whispered: "General Tai Shici, my lord wants you to invite the old lady to Jingzhou in person. "

"Ok?"

Tai Shici was surprised at first, as if he thought he heard it wrong, but at this time Li Yi stopped laughing and looked at him with a smile on his face. Now, it seems that he has never shown any killing intent towards him.

"I"

Tai Shici swallowed, as if he wanted to say something to Li Yi, but in the end he just bowed his head deeply.

Joy, of course, is there. Although Tai Shici is not a person who cherishes his life, it is better not to die, not to mention that he still has concerns.

However, he didn't know how to accept Li Yi's kindness.

In Tai Shici's view, he shot Li Yi's arrow, and Li Yi killed him as a matter of course, even though he himself didn't think he had the possibility of surviving, but Li Yi really wanted to let him go No matter if this is kindness or generosity, it is a bit too heavy for Tai Shici, weighing more than a thousand junctures, making him a little breathless.

Li Yi gave Tai Shici a puzzled look. He thought that Tai Shici would thank him a thousand times at the first time, but the current situation made him feel very strange, so he asked, "What do you mean by Ziyi?" , although Yi shot me an arrow that day, and I was indeed frightened at the time, but if I want to kill you because of it, I will never do it."

Tai Shici lowered his head a little lower, and said in a hoarse voice: "How can Tai Shici be treated like this by the Marquis Xiang, and I ask the Marquis Xiang to withdraw his decision. Tai Shici is willing to die to atone for his sin!"

After Tai Shici finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to grab the long sword he had put on the ground before, but Dian Wei's movements were faster. Before Tai Shici could catch it, Dian Wei stepped on the blade first, and then He yelled at Tai Shici, "My lord is magnanimous and doesn't care about you, and you happen to have an old mother to support, so it's not a good idea, but what are you going to do, like a woman, looking for life and death like a woman?"

Tai Shici's face turned red when Dian Wei scolded him, but he was powerless to refute.

Although Tai Shici is a general, he is very different from Dian Wei.

Dian Wei is a rough man with a simple mind. If Li Yi treats him well, he will repay Li Yi, burn, kill, loot and so on. If Li Yi asks him to do it, he will do it with a knife without any psychological burden. Who cares? The emperor followed suit.

It can be said that Dian Wei is a very simple person, simple and happy, but Tai Shici is different. He not only has a dignified man with a heart to repay his burden, but also has the integrity and stubbornness of a benevolent man. The things he considers Too much, naturally more tiring.

For example, before, Tai Shici was unhappy with Kong Rong's work, and Dian Wei would have dropped the pick long ago, but he persisted until the end.

Although Li Yi Shicai didn't explain it, the meaning was obvious, that he wanted to take him under his command.
