On the third day of March in 191, in the palace of Chang'an City, above the early court!

Liu Xie looked down in horror, Dong Zhuo's civil and military forces, his dragon chair would be full in a few hours.

He suddenly felt that today's dragon chair felt like sitting on pins and needles, which made him very uncomfortable.

Ministers in the court such as Situ Wangyun, Taiwei Zhongyou, Sikong Yang Biao, Sili Xiaowei Zhu Jun, Jingzhaoyin Huangfusong, Taichang Qingshi Sun Rui, Guanglu doctor Dong Cheng, advising doctor Zhao Wen, Tai Pu Han Rong and the others were restless.

They have all been notified that Dong Zhuo ascended the throne of God, and they will give up their current positions.

There is nothing terrible about giving up their positions, and they don't want to play for Dong Zhuo, but what they worry about is whether they can survive.

Liu Xie asked tremblingly: "Everyone, dear friends, why hasn't Dong Xiangguo come?"

Liu Xie hopes that this day will end soon, and life and death are at the mercy of fate.

Dong Zhuo's nephew Dong Huang said: "The new emperor is taking a bath!"

When everyone was uneasy, Li Ru walked in, glanced around the crowd, and said loudly: "The new emperor is about to succeed, but Jizhou Mu Caoshuo led an army to station in Luoyang, eyeing Chang'an with ulterior motives, I don't know which lord Would you like to convey the holy will and let him withdraw from Luoyang?"

Everyone, look at me, and I look at you. At this time, Cao Shuo came to Luoyang, obviously to put pressure on Dong Zhuo.

Convey the Holy Will, whose Holy Will?Liu Xie's is still Dong Zhuo's. If it was Dong Zhuo's, Cao Shuo probably would have ignored it at all.

"Report! Cao Shuo sent envoys outside the palace, demanding to see the new emperor!"

Li Ru was surprised, Cao Shuo's envoy came here, what are they doing?threaten?

"Let him in!"

After a while, a young man with a very ordinary appearance came to the main hall, first glanced around, and when he saw Liu Xie on the dragon chair, he didn't even bother to salute.

Li Ru asked vigilantly, "What did Marquis Wei ask you to come here?"

The young man replied: "My lord has already set up a banquet in Luoyang. I have been waiting for a long time. I wonder when Dong Xiangguo will succeed to the throne?"

"Convex(艹盘艹)!"

Go to a play?

Thanks to him Cao Shuo figured it out.

All the ministers in the court were very angry.

Leading the army to Luoyang, they didn't even attack Hangu Pass, and they still thought about setting up a banquet to watch a play?

Li Ru said with a gloomy face, "Why did Marquis Wei come to Luoyang?"

The young man replied: "My lord said that he missed Wang Mang's usurpation last time. It's a pity. He doesn't want to miss it this time."

"????"

Li Ru glared at him with black lines all over his head, and said, "Your lord, I wish the new emperor could succeed to the throne, so that he can establish himself as king in a logical way."

The young man said: "My lord disdains the throne. If Dong Xiangguo is willing to hand over His Majesty to my lord, my lord will give me a great gift."

Li Ru asked, "What kind of gift?"

"The new emperor succeeds, how can he succeed without the jade seal? If Dong Xiangguo can send His Majesty, the ministers who do not want to take refuge in the court, and their family members out of Hangu Pass, my lord would like to pass on the jade seal to the country!"

"what!"

Li Ru looked at him in horror, Cao Shuo actually had the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom, where did he get the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom?
Didn't it mean that after Sun Jian got the jade seal, he went back to Changsha, and then the jade seal was hijacked by Yuan Shao on the road? How could it run into Cao Shuo's hands?
The eunuch Han Rong said sharply: "The Jade Seal of Chuanguo is the lifeblood of the Han Dynasty, how can it be given away?"

The young man said disdainfully: "If you have the ability to send Your Majesty out of Chang'an, otherwise don't compare!"

Han Rongqi's seven orifices produce smoke, and exchanging the jade seal for Liu Xie's life is probably a helpless move.

Li Ru can't make the decision on this matter. Whether Dong Zhuo wants the jade seal or not depends entirely on his will. After proclaiming himself emperor, they probably belong to them all in the court. It doesn't really matter whether he has the jade seal or not.

"I'm going to report to Xiangguo, you wait here!"

Li Ru walked out of the hall quickly, came to the place where Dong Zhuo was bathing, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Cao Shuo sent an envoy to discuss with us about your Majesty's ownership."

Dong Zhuo said indifferently: "What conditions does he have?"

Li Ru walked up to the action and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Cao Shuo has a jade seal of the state!"

"What?" Dong Zhuo was shocked that the Chuanguo Yuxi was actually in Cao Shuo's hands.

Li Ru asked: "Your Majesty, do we want to exchange your Majesty and the ministers who do not want to belong to the court in exchange for the jade seal?"

Dong Zhuo asked back, "Then what do you think are the pros and cons of this matter?"

Li Ru thought about it, and with Yuxi, it was a legitimate successor to the throne.

"Your Majesty, I think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages!"

Dong Zhuo asked, "Other than Liu Xie and the courtiers, what conditions does Cao Shuo have?"

Li Ru replied: "And their families!"

Dong Zhuo calculated carefully, there were 50 or [-] ministers in the court who did not want to belong to them, plus their family members, wouldn't it be several thousand?
Does Liu Xie's harem count?Although Liu Xie is still young and has not married yet, there are many concubines left by the late emperor Liu Hong. Do you want these people, Cao Shuo?These are all problems.

Dong Zhuo ordered: "Li Ru, please ask carefully, who exactly does Cao Shuo want? The total number of people should not exceed 300."

"Also, there is no delay in proclaiming the emperor. At noon, no one can stop you. You imprison all the ministers who oppose it, and hand them over after we have discussed it with Cao Shuo."

Li Ru nodded, then returned to the main hall of the palace, looked at the young man, and said, "The new emperor said, it's okay to change, but the total number of people can't exceed 300."

"Three hundred?" The young man looked at Li Ru speechlessly, one jade seal for 300 people?
