"Yu Yi, I'll leave the rest to you. You draft an edict to depose the young emperor and establish a new emperor."
No one objected, so Dong Zhuo was naturally in a good mood. He cut a piece of meat with a knife and put it in his mouth to chew.
Yu Yi stood aside, indignant in his heart. Although he didn't know the reason behind this, he could think that the Han Dynasty had not yet been destroyed. Doing such a thing would be tantamount to ruining his reputation. He would be known to the world like the traitor Wang Jingwei. cast aside.
"Why, do you have any scruples?"
Seeing Yuyi's delay in responding, Dong Zhuo put down the meat in his hand and asked sharply.
At this time, a person in the banquet overturned the table, stood in the middle of the banquet, and shouted: "How can this be done? Who are you to make such a bold decision? You must know that the young emperor is the eldest son of the late emperor. He has never made any mistakes, so why would he abolish it casually? You are trying to rebel!"
Dong Zhuo looked at this man and it was Ding Yuan, the governor of Jingzhou.
Seeing that the matter had been settled and someone suddenly intervened, Dong Zhuo was naturally in a bad mood and said angrily: "This matter must be decided this way. If he disobeys my will, he will not end well!" He drew his sword on the spot and said, Walk towards Dingyuan.
Yu Yi cast a grateful look at Ding Yuan, and at the same time expressed sympathy for his next encounter. Now that Dong Zhuo has great power, how can you compete with him when you are single?
Li Ru was sitting next to Dong Zhuo. He observed that there was a man standing next to Ding Yuan. He quickly threw the wine glass in his hand to the ground. Dong Zhuo was attracted by the sound of breaking and turned around to watch.
Li Ru hurriedly added: "Today is just a banquet. We shouldn't talk about national affairs. It won't be too late to talk about it after we go to court tomorrow."
Taking advantage of this opportunity, some ministers advised Ding Yuan to leave quickly.
Dong Zhuo returned to his seat and asked the officials again, "Is what I just said fair?"
Lu Zhi added: "Master Dong Zhuo, you are a just man. It is wrong to say so. In the past, Tang's eldest son was fatuous and the prime minister of the Shang Dynasty imprisoned him in Tong Palace. Liu He, the king of Changyi, did three things only twenty-seven days after he ascended the throne. He was notorious for thousands of times, so Huo Guang sued the Ancestral Temple and deposed him. Now the young emperor is still young and is considered smart. Although he is not as good as King Chenliu, he has no fault. You are an official from a foreign county and have never participated in How can we forcibly dethrone the emperor if he does not have the talent and prestige of Huo Guang in government affairs? The sage said that it is okay to have Yi Yin's ambition, but if he does not, it is a conspiracy to usurp the throne."
This sentence made Yu Yi admire Lu Zhi even more and his arguments were substantial. He thought about how Dong Zhuo would change his mind. What he didn't expect was that Dong Zhuo became even more angry. He stood up, drew his sword, and walked in the direction of Lu Zhi.
Yu Yi secretly sighed in his heart, this Dong Zhuo would not be able to accomplish anything big after all. He had given advice to He Jin so earnestly before, but he refused to listen and ended up being hacked to death. Now Dong Zhuo is making the same mistake again.
Attendant Cai Yong and Yilang Peng Bo stepped forward to block Dong Zhuo's way and admonished him: "Lu Zhi is quite popular here. If you kill him today, the people will definitely feel cold towards you."
Dong Zhuo withdrew his weapons and returned to his seat. At this time, Situ Wang Yun saw that Dong Zhuo's thoughts had faded a little, so he became more energetic and said: "This matter of abolishing the establishment cannot be discussed clearly at a banquet. It’s better to talk about it another day.”
Dong Zhuo followed his words, and all the officials dispersed.
He was the last one to leave, always standing at the gate of the garden with his sword in hand. Suddenly he saw a man outside with a halberd in his hand. He jumped on his horse and left quickly outside the gate of the garden.
Dong Zhuo asked Li Ru, "This man seems to be very skilled in martial arts. Who is he?"
Yu Yi also felt the opponent's skill. He didn't see clearly the movement of his horse. I'm afraid he was still stronger than his third brother. When he thought of the halberd in his hand, he thought of a person. Isn't this the number one general of the Three Kingdoms, Lu Bu? , and answered Dong Zhuo's question unconsciously.
"Yu Yi is right. This person is Ding Yuan's newly adopted son. His name is Lu Bu, and his courtesy name is Fengxian. My lord must avoid the sharp edges when he sees him."
Li Ru smiled.
Yu Yi then remembered that at the banquet, Li Ru interrupted Dong Zhuo's murderous intention by giving advice. This was a very powerful move. Otherwise, Lu Bu would not be able to kill Dong Zhuo even if he made a move.
Li Ru was a little surprised that Yu Yi had such insight. As Dong Zhuo's adviser, he could never see through Yu Yi's true thoughts, which was strange to say.
The next day, someone reported that Ding Yuan was provoking soldiers and horses outside the city. Dong Zhuo was furious and took Li Ru and Yu Yi to fight together.
The two armies faced each other. From a distance, they could see Lu Bu wearing a golden crown, a hundred-flower war robe, Tang Ni armor, and a lion belt. He was riding a horse with a halberd, full of murderous intent. Ding Principle was standing next to him.
Ding Yuan pointed at Dong Zhuo's nose in front of the battle and cursed: "The country is unfortunate. The eunuchs have taken power, which has led to the destruction of the people. You made mistakes when you exterminated the Yellow Turban bandits, let alone any merit. How dare you talk about deposing the emperor casually?" Things, you are causing trouble to the imperial court!"
Dong Zhuo wanted to retort a few words, but before he could say anything, Lu Bu drove his horse towards him. Dong Zhuo quickly ran away. Yu Yi was a little surprised when he felt Lu Bu's speed. The horse was like a vehicle. An ordinary vehicle accelerated to 100 kilometers. It takes a long time per hour, but unlike a sports car, it can be achieved in a few seconds. This Lu Bu is like driving a sports car.
Ding Yuan took the opportunity to lead his army to cover up the attack. Dong Zhuo was defeated and had to retreat thirty miles to the stronghold and invite everyone to discuss.
Dong Zhuo sighed: "I have observed that Lu Bu is a very brave and good at fighting. If we can get him, why worry about the world?"
Yu Yi added: "Although Lu Bu is brave, he is no match for my second and third brothers. It is better to recall them from the plains and fight the enemy together."
After hearing this, Dong Zhuo recognized it very much and was about to nod in agreement, but a man came out of the tent and laughed and said: "Don't bother me, Lu Bu and I are from the same place. I know this man very well. He is somewhat brave, but has no strategy. I don't show loyalty when I see benefits. I'm willing to use my sharp tongue to make Lu Bu come to you of his own accord. Do you think it's okay?"
Dong Zhuo was very happy. The person watching the speech was none other than Huben Zhonglang General Li Su, so he asked: "How are you going to persuade him?"
Li Su smiled and said: "I heard that you have a horse called Red Rabbit, which can run more than a thousand miles a day. I need this horse and some gold and silver. If I try to persuade him again, Lu Bu will definitely rebel against Ding." It turns out that I came to seek refuge with you."
Dong Zhuo was still a little unsure, so he asked Li Ru on the side, "What do you think?"
Li Ru smiled and said: "My lord wants to establish his authority in the world, so what does a mere BMW mean?"
Yu Yi wanted to make another suggestion, but of course Dong Zhuo couldn't listen and had to give up.
