"Since Lu Bu wants me to prove his strength first, then I will be as he wishes."

After listening to Li Su’s report, Dong Zhuo said in a deep voice.

Although he has already controlled the vast majority of the imperial guards, he cannot be said to be full of confidence, at least Dong Zhuo dares to challenge everyone now.

Lu Bu just made Dong Zhuo a little afraid.

"What do you want to do with your lord?" Li Ru asked.

Dong Zhuo said: "What if I deposed the emperor?"

Dong Zhuo's words were light and light, but except for Jia Xu, Li Ru, Li Su, Niu Fu and others here all stood up in shock.

Since ancient times, how many people have dared to say that they have deposed the emperor?

Li Ru and others all hoped to see that Dong Zhuo could become the one below one, but they never thought that Dong Zhuo would actually depose the emperor.

Dong Zhuo had this idea long ago. When he saw Liu Bian and Liu Xie brothers in Beim Mountain, he saw the older one, the emperor, and only cried. After asking questions, Dong Zhuo didn't like it very much.

Dong Zhuo prefers bold and independent people.

If Liu Bian was not the emperor and his identity was just an ordinary person, Dong Zhuo would not want to pay attention to such a person.

On the other hand, Liu Xie, who was young, not only answered his questions smoothly, but also did not panic when encountering problems. The difference between the two was very obvious.

Although Dong Zhuo was eager to gain power at this time, he was not so crazy that he wanted to replace him.

While longing for power, I also hope that I can bring changes to the great man.

Among the two brothers Liu Bian and Liu Xie, it is obvious that the young Liu Xie is more suitable to inherit the throne.

But because of a relative like He Jin, the older Liu Bian, the fool, inherited the throne.

The officials in the court actually chose to support Liu Bian and came up with a theory of whether they can establish a eldest son or not.

In Dong Zhuo's opinion, this is very incompetent. Whether it is the emperor or the officials below, they naturally need to be able to take charge. There are obviously smarter people, why do you have to make a fool the emperor?

Dong Zhuo wanted to abolish Liu Bian and make Liu Xie the emperor. In addition to the above reasons, he also had his own considerations.

Through this abolishment and establishment, he could hold more power in his hands. He would lift his position to Yuan Shao, Yuan Huai and others in one fell swoop, and press all the scholars and officials under him.

"Lord, are you too hasty?" Li Ru asked after calming down.

If Dong Zhuo really succeeds, Li Ru and the others will naturally have to follow him. The higher and farther Dong Zhuo goes, the more beneficial it will be for those who follow Dong Zhuo.

So after calming down, they did not advise Dong Zhuo not to do such a decree, but were worried that they would do such a shocking thing just now that they had just entered Luoyang, which would be too hasty and easily fail.

"What do you think about Wenhe?" Dong Zhuo looked at Jia Xu.

From entering Luoyang so smoothly, it was entirely up to Jia Xu's plan, and Dong Zhuo attached great importance to Jia Xu.

If Jia Xu also feels that he is too hasty now, Dong Zhuoshi will consider giving up temporarily and wait until he becomes stable in the future.

Jia Xu nodded and said, "If the lord really intends to do this decree, it is the right time now."

Dong Zhuo's eyes lit up. Although he wanted to abolish Liu Bian and support Liu Xie, Dong Zhuo failed to analyze when the best time was. He just had this idea and had to do it.

Jia Xu said: "Luoyang has just experienced great chaos. Now is the time for people's hearts to change. Although many people will oppose it, as long as the lord cut it quickly, no one will dare to oppose it in a short period of time."

If people's hearts stabilize in the future and those scholars and officials are reunited and Dong Zhuo proposes the destruction and establishment, the resistance will be greater. Even if one or two people are killed at that time, more people will stand up to stop them.

Dong Zhuo said: "Tomorrow prepare a banquet and invite those people to the mansion."

With Jia Xu's explanation, Dong Zhuo's confidence became stronger.

At that moment, a servant prepared an invitation and sent it to the ministers in Luoyang City.

Although these ministers in Luoyang City did not like Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo had military power, so after receiving Dong Zhuo's invitation, they still came to Dong Zhuo's mansion as promised. Only Yuan Shao had not arrived.

Of course, avoid being beaten by Dong Zhuo in one go. These ministers were accompanied by guards.

After drinking for several rounds, Dong Zhuo slapped the table and said, "I have a word, and all the officials listen quietly."

After everyone at the banquet did not speak out, Dong Zhuo continued: "The emperor is the lord of all people. Without majesty, he cannot be entrusted to the ancestral temple and the country. Now he is cowardly, not as good as King Chenliu Conghui. I want to abolish the emperor and establish King Chenliu. What do you think?"

All the ministers who came to participate in Dong Zhuo's banquet knew that this banquet would not be an ordinary banquet, but no one guessed that Dong Zhuo dared to say such words.

For a moment, a needle fell in the banquet hall could be heard.

Ding Yuan, the governor of Bingzhou, first reacted that they were all from other places, and why did Dong Zhuo mention the decree and establishment? Did he rely on the three thousand Xiliang soldiers under his command? Ding Yuan also had three thousand Bingzhou Iron Cavalry in his hands.

Before Dong Zhuo exposed that the imperial guards had surrendered to him, Ding Yuan was still very confident when facing Dong Zhuo. Moreover, there was Lu Bu around him at this moment.

Even if this is Dong Zhuo's mansion, Ding Yuan believed that Lu Bu could take him out. So he was not a false name for Dong Zhuo.

After reacting immediately, he immediately shouted loudly: "Who are you? You dare to speak the heavenly words? The emperor is the legitimate son of the late emperor. He has no fault at first. Who dares to abdicate and establish a decree? Do you want to usurp the rebellion?"

Dong Zhuo narrowed his eyes and said, "Those who follow me will prosper and those who go against me will perish!"

But he was not looking at Ding Yuan, but Lu Bu behind Ding Yuan.

This sentence was also said to Lu Bu.

Dong Zhuo, he, was going to let Lu Bu see today whether he had the strength or not. What he promised him, Lu Bu, would be able to fulfill it in the future, and it would be even better.

Li Ru seized the opportunity and stood up and said, "Drinking today will not talk about state affairs, but the court will discuss it again in the future."

Others also began to persuade Ding Yuan to go back first and not get angry here.

They didn't have the confidence of Ding Yuan, and they were worried that they would suffer a disaster in the pond.

Ding Yuan left, Dong Zhuo looked at the remaining ministers and asked, "What I said is fair?"

The other ministers were shocked by Dong Zhuo's previous actions and dared not say much at this moment, but Lu Zhi, who was upright, was also at a banquet this time. Moreover, when the Yellow Turban Rebellion was wiped out, Dong Zhuo was still a subordinate of Lu Zhi.

After Ding Yuan, he also stood up and said, "Although the emperor is young, he has no fault. You have been in Xiliang for a long time and have never participated in the national affairs. You have no talent for Yi Yin and Huo Guang. When will it be your turn to preside over the destruction and establishment? The sage said: If you have Yi Yin's ambition, you can do it, but if you have Yi Yin's ambition, you will usurp it."

Dong Zhuo was furious and drew his sword to kill Lu Zhi.

Although Lu Zhi was his boss before, he was just right to use it to kill the chicken to warn the monkey.
