Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

When Dong Zhuo brought his soldiers to the tent, the look he revealed was enough to kill everyone.

He twisted his fat body and glanced at the eunuch who was kneeling on the ground and trembling.

He asked coldly, "Where is your Majesty?"

The eunuchs looked at each other in bewilderment. When the rebellion started, they saw blood and corpses all over the ground. Some fainted, while others hid in the corners of the tents and trembled. How could they know where His Majesty was?

Dong Zhuo said coldly: "As His Majesty's close attendants, His Majesty's life or death is unknown, but you don't know anything about it. What use are you?"

"Come here, kill them all."

"only."

"Prime Minister, spare my life."

"Prime Minister, spare my life."

……

The voice begging for mercy was like waves, reaching Dong Zhuo's ears.

Dong Zhuo smiled coldly, without a trace of emotion on his face, and turned his gaze to a group of ministers.

"Gentlemen, does anyone know the whereabouts of His Majesty?"

The ministers looked at each other in bewilderment. They were all civil servants, and in the previous fight, they were no better than the eunuchs. There were a few ministers who picked up swords and rushed to the emperor's tent to protect him, but by now they had all turned into cold corpses on the ground.

"I don't know."

"I don't know?"

Dong Zhuo laughed dryly twice, his laughter full of anger.

"Then let me ask you another question. I'm sure someone here knows the answer."

"Who is the person who assassinated your majesty and our family?"

When the princes and ministers heard this question, their minds seemed to explode.

"Prime Minister, who are those thieves? How would we know?"

Dong Zhuo looked at these people with a hint of mockery on his face.

"I don't know. You guys are so clean. Naturally you have forgotten. Let me remind you."

"Last time Cao Cao tried to assassinate me, I said that there must be an accomplice of Cao Cao among you."

"We haven't found our accomplice yet, and you're already looking for someone to kill us."

"It's fine if you hire someone to assassinate me, after all, you hate me, you hate me for taking away your wealth and glory. Today I want to ask you, where were you when the emperor was frightened and wandering outside?"

"It was our family who came from thousands of miles away to save Your Majesty from Beimang. It was also our family who exterminated the treacherous party in the court and welcomed Your Majesty back to the court. It was our family who appointed talented people to positions and stabilized the court."

"Just think about it, without our family, you might have been left dead in the wilderness. You would not be able to hold a high position like you are now, with fine wine and beautiful concubines by your side every day."

"I thought you just hated me, but I didn't expect you to be so bold as to murder His Majesty. Don't you usually consider yourselves as loyal subjects of the Han Dynasty? Now you have done such a heinous thing."

"Since you are so ungrateful, don't blame our family."

Dong Zhuo pointed with his finger and uttered a word from between his teeth.

"kill."

The soldiers stepped forward and were about to drag the man out and kill him.

Only one voice was heard in the scene.

"Prime Minister, no."

Dong Zhuo glanced at Cai Yong and the expression on his face eased a little.

"Bo Ji, you don't know how hateful these princes and ministers are. They rely on their status as senior officials in the court to ignore our family. Now they are even trying to assassinate our family and murder His Majesty. What's the point of keeping these people who have no king or father and are worse than pigs and dogs?"

Cai Yong looked at a group of trembling court officials and advised: "Prime Minister, they are all important officials of the court. If you deal with them casually, the overall situation in the court may be unstable."

Dong Zhuo glanced at the soldiers around him and smiled coldly.

"Bo Ji, the stability of the court does not depend on them."

"What the Prime Minister said is wrong. Has the Prime Minister forgotten what Lu Jia said to Emperor Gaozu?"

Dong Zhuo remained silent. Of course he had heard of this before.

Lu Jia, a native of Chu, was a famous debater. He had helped Emperor Gaozu of Han to conquer the country and remained with him afterwards. He often liked to discuss the Book of Songs and the Book of Documents in front of Liu Bang. Emperor Gaozu said in disgust, "I conquered the country by riding a horse and fighting. Why would I need the Book of Songs and the Book of Documents?"

Lu Jia said: "You can conquer the world on horseback, but can you rule the world on horseback? Only by combining civil and military skills can we achieve long-term stability."

It is said that Emperor Gaozu felt a little ashamed after hearing these words.

When Cai Yong saw that Dong Zhuo didn't say anything, he knew that his words had worked, and he was about to persuade him again.

Li Ru was seen striding towards Dong Zhuo.

"Prime Minister, we have checked all the bodies, and your Majesty is not among them. Ru also got some information from a seriously injured soldier. Ru judged that this information is likely related to your Majesty's whereabouts.

Dong Zhuo asked, "What's the news? Wenyou, tell me quickly."

"Before he fainted, he heard the thieves say, 'Chase up the mountain.' Ru guessed that since they chased up the mountain, it meant that His Majesty was not killed."

Dong Zhuo was a little unconvinced.

"Your Majesty is smart, but he is only nine years old after all. How could he have seen through the thieves' evil plan and hid in the mountains in advance?"

Li Ru replied, "I also have doubts about this. I asked again and learned that Your Majesty summoned Uncle Liu today. Uncle Liu is very wise. I guess that Uncle Liu must have seen through the thieves and took Your Majesty to hide in the mountains and forests."

"Uncle?" Dong Zhuo thought for a while, "You mean Liu Yu."

Li Ru said: "That's right."

Dong Zhuo nodded.

"Liu Yu does have some talent, but why didn't he go to our house with His Majesty, but took His Majesty to hide in the mountains?"

Li Ru said: "The Prime Minister and His Majesty were assassinated at the same time. Moreover, the thieves were hiding among the soldiers, and it was difficult to distinguish between enemies and friends. It was a wise move for the emperor's uncle not to dare to look for the Prime Minister. After all, no one knows whether the people they meet along the way are enemies or friends."

Dong Zhuo thought about it for a moment and felt that it made sense.

Li Ru glanced at the lush forest and continued, "In this forest, those bandits are chasing your majesty. The most urgent task is to find your majesty first and rescue him."

Dong Zhuo heard this and said in a deep voice: "Fengxian, quickly lead the soldiers into the forest to rescue His Majesty. Remember, not a single blade of grass or tree can be spared. Your Majesty must be rescued."

Lu Bu took the order and disappeared into the forest with his soldiers in a moment.

Watching Lü Bu disappear into the forest, Dong Zhuo came back to his senses. He looked at the ministers kneeling on the ground and asked, "Wen You, how do you think we should deal with these people?"

Li Ru pondered and said, "I think we can keep them under guard for the time being, and make plans after we find His Majesty."

Dong Zhuo thought it made sense, so he decided to spare the lives of these people for the time being.

If Your Majesty is rescued safely, these people will be employed after their loyalty and treachery are determined.

If Your Majesty cannot rescue them, then there is nothing we can do but ask these people to accompany Your Majesty in the underworld.

"Just do as Wenyou said. Take them away and keep them under careful watch."

The soldiers around heard the order and took the minister back to the tent.

The ministers nearly died and their faces turned pale.

They had all been through the court, and if they didn't understand Dong Zhuo's final intention, they knew that in the camp, they secretly prayed to Liu Huangshu to show his divine power and save the emperor from the water and fire.
