Luoyang, Prime Minister's residence, Dong Zhuo's meeting hall.
"Lord, there is a big thing that must be done."
After waiting for a few people, Li Ru said mysteriously.
Of course, Li Que, Guo Si and others are still there.
"Oh? Wen You, what a big deal it is that you are so mysterious?" Hearing this, Dong Zhuo became interested.
"I wonder, my lord, are you aiming for the world now, or are you?" Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo expectantly.
"Of course I do, my ambition is to conquer the world, why do you need to ask more questions?" Dong Zhuo didn't understand why and hesitated.
"In that case, please, my lord, lend me something. Ru Ding can make the allies defeat themselves without attacking."
Seeing Dong Zhuo like this, Li Ru said excitedly.
"Oh? What is it?" Dong Zhuo asked curiously.
"Without him, I would like to pass on the country's jade seal." Li Ru said casually.
"What do I think it is? It turns out to be this broken stone. If you want to take it, just take it."
Dong Zhuo didn't care and asked someone to get it.
The jade seal passed down from the country symbolizes royal power and respected status, and is coveted by all the princes in the world.
To Dong Zhuo, this national seal was indeed no different from a stone. After all, he had played with it enough, it was like a piece of chicken and it didn't mean much.
However, if this national seal can be used to divide the princes, then it would be great.
As for whether it could succeed, Dong Zhuo didn't care very much. No matter how bad it was, it would be disgusting. He didn't believe in these eighteen princes. None of them were greedy.
Being able to regard the jade seal as rubble, Dong Zhuo's pattern is indeed extraordinary. Among the princes in the world, those who can resist the temptation of the jade seal are really rare.
"There is one more matter that needs to be decided by the Lord."
Li Ru struck while the iron was hot and continued to speak.
"Oh? Hahaha, Wenyou, what else do you want? Let's talk about it together!" Dong Zhuo said with a hearty smile.
"My lord, it's like this. We don't have enough money and food now, and there are so many rich households in Luoyang, they are not as good as us."
Li Ru made a gesture to Dong Zhuo.
"Wenyou, what you mean is that you want it."
Dong Zhuo understood, narrowed his eyes, and spoke slowly.
"That's right, my lord, you can lose your family and collect the property, but Yuan Shao's subordinates should kill his party members and seize his family materials, and they will definitely get tens of thousands of military supplies."
Li Ru secretly said that he had no good impression of the Yuan family.
"Well, very good, Li Que, you can take care of this matter."
Dong Zhuo glanced at Li Que, who lowered his head, and said.
"Promise!!! We will fulfill our mission!!!"
Li Que said in surprise, this is such a bad job.
"The rest of the generals can make arrangements on their own if there is a shortage of money and food in the army. However, at noon tomorrow, they must gather together and drive the people with me to escort His Majesty to Chang'an." Dong Zhuo stood up slowly and ordered in a cold voice.
"No!" "No!!" "No!!!"
The burning of Luoyang has begun, and it will be hell on earth.
Burning Luoyang could not cause any substantial harm to the princes, but this general declared to the world that the Han Dynasty was dead in name only.
The burning of Luoyang was also the final turning point in Dong Zhuo's life. He would become an ordinary prince from being the overlord of the world, and he would start to break the rules.
The burning of Luoyang, although from a military point of view, held back the princes, from a political point of view, Dong Zhuo completely lost the hearts of the people and lost the world.
As the old saying goes, if you go hundreds of miles, half of it will be ninety. If you are honest, you will not deceive me. There are many people who start well, but few people who finish well.
"Teacher, do you think we and Cao Cao can avoid war in the future?" Yuan Xi asked Zhang Hong.
"There is no common master in the sky, and there are no two kings on the earth. Yuan and Cao will eventually have a battle." Zhang Hong looked at the sunset in the distance.
Yuan Xi: Yes, I am naive.
