Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Cao Cao assassinated Dong, and I was abandoned

"Take them to my study!"

"promise!"

Cao Shuo looked at Zhao Yu and ordered, "Xiao Yu, go and call Zilong and Zhicai!"

"promise!"

Cao Shuo, Zhao Yun, and Xi Zhicai met in front of the study, and Zhao Yun asked eagerly, "My lord, why do you want us to come here?"

"Bo Miao is back, we must have settled the matter, let's go see Li Ru!"

The three of them walked into the house and saw Deng Zhi talking with a middle-aged scribe, so they already guessed that he must be Li Ru.

Cao Shuo looked at Li Ru and said, "This must be Li Wen, the First Lieutenant of the Qin State!"

Seeing Cao Shuo's politeness, Li Ru replied, "Weihou!"

After several people were seated, Cao Shuo asked, "Mr. Wen Xian, how is the situation in Chang'an?"

Li Ru was very embarrassed. Do I need to ask about the situation in Chang'an?

You Cao Shuo's eyeliner is all over the world, and you know everything about Chang'an like the palm of your hand.

"It's an accident that Liu Xie offended His Majesty Qin and was given death by His Majesty!"

Cao Shuo sighed and said, "The emperor of the Han Dynasty is dead, so what's the point of my building in Luoyang?"

Li Ru asked puzzledly: "Weihou wants to rebuild Luoyang?"

"I'm already rebuilding. I originally wanted to use Yuxi to exchange Liu Xie back, but now that he's dead, what should I do?"

Li Ru said meaningfully: "Marquis Wei is the richest man in the world, this little money can't trouble Marquis Wei!"

"My nearly 80 troops have to be fed, and the cavalry accounts for about [-]% of them. I spend money like running water every day. I wanted to build Luoyang in advance. After His Majesty settles in, I will ask other princes for money, but now His Majesty is dead. It hurts my vitality, and the other princes probably won't pay half of the money."

Li Ru smiled and said, "Marquis Wei has countless talented people, how can we not take precautions? Even if Liu Xie is dead, Marquis Wei's actions are enough to prove to the world how loyal Marquis Wei is to the Han Dynasty."

Li Ru gave Cao Shuo a disdainful look, do you really need Liu Xie?Will you let Liu Xie live in rebuilding Luoyang?It's nothing more than announcing to the world that you, Mr. Cao, have the intention of helping the Han Dynasty, so as to win people's hearts.

Seeing that Li Ru guessed his intention, Cao Shuo was not surprised at all. If Li Ru couldn't guess this with his IQ, he really didn't deserve to exchange the jade seal by himself.

"Mr. Wen Xian, if one day Chang'an can't accommodate you, where will you go?"

Li Ru narrowed his eyes and looked at Cao Shuo in horror. What do you mean?What do you mean Chang'an can't tolerate me?

not good!

Li Ru suddenly thought of a very terrible thing. If Cao Shuo sent someone to spread rumors that he was planning Dong Zhuo with him when he was no longer in Chang'an, and then released him and let him go back to Chang'an, how could Dong Zhuo Believe in yourself.

Without his own assistance, Dong Zhuo's strength might drop by about [-]%. When Cao Shuo led his army westward, Chang'an would be in danger.

Well, Cao Zixiang, you have a good plan.

"Marquis Wei is really shrewd. In order to drive a wedge between me and His Majesty, he didn't hesitate to use the jade seal as a bet."

Cao Shuo said: "Yuxi is useless to me, sir is my target, if I tear up the agreement now and detain you here, what do you think will happen to Dong Zhuo?"

Li Ru said calmly: "I don't know what will happen to Your Majesty, but I know that Marquis Wei will be notorious, and the lives of so many ministers in the court will be killed because of Marquis Wei's actions."

Cao Shuo jokingly said: "The majesty of the big man is gone. What do you think I want them for? Why don't you stay with me and find me another majesty?"

Li Ru said: "Wei Hou may not know something, we have already spread the news, if Wei Hou repents, those loyal to the Han Dynasty will be sad."

"Hahaha!"

Deng Zhi laughed, and said: "Mr. Wen Xian, when we came back, Hangu Pass suddenly increased its troops by [-]. Is it to guard the pass? These people killed Dong Zhuo's family, and Dong Zhuo will let them go?"

Li Ru panicked. Dong Zhuo had indeed confessed that when the deal was completed, he would lead the army no matter what, and wipe out all these ministers to avenge the tragic death of the relatives of the Dong family.

All of this was actually planned by Cao Shuo. If Dong Zhuo took the opportunity to kill those ministers, wouldn't it be Cao Shuo's success.

Li Ru involuntarily looked at Zhao Yun and Xi Zhicai. These two were definitely Cao Shuo's confidantes, otherwise he wouldn't dare to say such things in front of other people.

Xi Zhicai said: "Their death is very worthwhile in exchange for Dong Zhuo's death, and it can be regarded as a meager effort for the Han Dynasty."

"What do you mean?" Li Ru looked at Xi Zhicai puzzled.

"I heard that Dong Zhuo is left with you, Dong Mu and Dong Bai?"

"puff!"

Li Ru spat out a mouthful of blood. Although he knew for a long time that the other party had a profound intention to do so, it was most likely to drive a wedge between him and Dong Zhuo, but he knew from Xi Zhicai that this plan must have something to do with Cao Shuo related.

The one who killed Dong Zhuo's family was not the prince or minister, but Cao Shuo...

Why is he telling me this?

Are you afraid that I will go back and tell Dong Zhuo?

Li Ru looked at Cao Shuo and asked in horror, "You want to kill me?"

"Why kill, isn't life more valuable?"

Cao Shuo gave Li Ru a meaningful look. It is too easy to kill people. If he wanted Li Ru to die, Jin Yiwei would have done it during the assassination before. This is much easier than killing Dong Min and Dong Huang.

"You, you actually want to use my mouth to raise your name!"

Chapter 283 Li Ru's Aggrieved

What a conspiracy!

If he told Dong Zhuo the truth, Dong Zhuo would be furious and send troops to attack Cao Shuo.

Cao Shuo sent people to kill Dong Zhuo's family. Such a feat would greatly increase his reputation.

From the beginning to the end, Cao Shuo only killed Dong Zhuo's cronies, princes, ministers, and Liu Xie, all died in Dong Zhuo's hands.

"You are ruthless!"

Li Ru knew Cao Shuo's overall plan, but so what.

Cao Shuo said with a smile: "I'm just using tactics so blatantly to see how you will deal with Dong Zhuo's absence. Zhicai, please inform us and let our people spread throughout Jingzhaoyin, Zuofengling, Youfufeng, Hedong County, Hongnong County spread it around, and Li Ru secretly joined forces with the ministers of the court and China to assassinate Dong Zhuo's family."

"promise!"

"You..." Li Ruqi's face turned livid.

"Dong Zhuo's family, you are the only male left, do you think Dong Zhuo will think this is a coincidence!"

"You are so vicious!"

Cao Shuo laughed and said, "You really did me a great favor by killing Liu Xie."

Li Ru's face was gloomy. Although he knew that Dong Zhuo became emperor a little too early and was in a hurry, he didn't expect that Cao Shuo would be the biggest beneficiary, not those Han family clan members who were state shepherds.

"Wei Hou is worthy of being a hero who broke out of Luoyang alone!"

Apart from lamenting that Li Ru was powerless to say anything else.

Cao Shuo said: "If Wen You is willing to join our army, you may still save your life."

Li Ru fell into deep thought. Dong Zhuo was definitely going to die. After Dong Zhuo's death, the entire Xiliang army would either fall into chaos or become his own help.

Dong Zhuo has no one else to rely on, should he assist Cao Shuo, or become king on his own?

"Marquis Wei, when do you plan to attack Chang'an?" Li Ru looked at Cao Shuo and asked cautiously.

Cao Shuo thought for a while and said, "At least we have to wait until Dong Zhuo dies. Chang'an is still cohesive, and Dong Zhuo can still command the army. Attacking Chang'an at this time will cost a lot."

Li Ru looked at Cao Shuo in surprise, and asked, "How dare Wei Houjing tell me so much?"

"This is an unchangeable fact. Dong Zhuo is 62, and I don't have 22. Do you think he can consume more energy than me?"

Yeah, Dong Joo's age is an issue.

62, in this big man, there are not many people who can live to this age.

Cao Shuo continued: "After you go back, Dong Zhuo will definitely not let you go, even if you don't die, you will lose your skin, but if you can help me take down Hangu Pass, I will save your life."

"Hangu Pass?"

Li Ru looked at Cao Shuo in horror. If Hangu Pass was breached, then Hongnong County would be over, and there would be only Tongguan left from Chang'an.

Li Ru asked: "I don't know how Marquis Wei will fulfill his promise."

Li Ru really couldn't think of what method Cao Shuo would use to protect himself. It stands to reason that after he returned, Dong Zhuo would definitely not let it go.

"It depends on whether Wen Xiansheng wants to survive. I won't say how."

Li Ru looked at Cao Shuo dejectedly. This guy had too many cards, and their Xiliang army had no advantage against Cao Shuo.

The iron cavalry of the Xiliang army was invincible, but they were broken by Cao Shuo's double-sided stirrups, and they defeated their elite flying bear army with recruits.

Facing such an opponent, Li Ru was a little bit at a loss, or it was too late. If he could have been killed in Luoyang back then, perhaps he would not have the troubles of today.

Cao Shuo said to Zhao Yu who was guarding the door: "Xiao Yu, go get the jade seal!"

"promise!"

After a while, Zhao Yu came to the study with a wooden box in his arms and put it in front of Cao Shuo.

"Master Wen, is this jade seal real or fake? Would you like to verify it?"

Li Ru smiled wryly, and said, "Does truth matter now?"

However, Cao Shuo still opened the wooden box and let Zhao Yu put it in front of Li Ru.

Li Ru took a closer look. There was a missing corner of the jade seal, and it was replaced with gold. It should not be a fake.

"Xiaoyu, bring me the paper I prepared in the back room!"

"promise!"

Zhao Yu took a lot of effort to move out a large stack of papers.

Cao Shuo took the jade seals, handed them to Zhao Yu, and said, "Stamp each seal on the lower left corner!"

"My grass..."

Li Ru rolled his eyes angrily, and almost fainted. How could you be more shameless? There are so many papers produced by Zhen's Chamber of Commerce, there are five hundred if not one thousand.

Cover them all?Then what is the use of this jade seal?

After Zhao Yu finished editing, he looked at Cao Shuo with a distressed face, and said, "Husband, this is too much."

Cao Shuo scolded: "The seal can only be stamped by the emperor after this jade seal, so you have nothing to complain about."

"It turns out that being an emperor is exhausting!"

Li Ru wiped off his cold sweat, and glared at the shameless couple angrily. I'm afraid Liu Hong has never covered so much in his life.

"Bo Miao, send Yuxi to Hangu Pass!"

"promise!"

"Zilong, escort Bo Miao!"

"promise!"

"Zhicai, you send people to operate and spread the assassination of Li Ru and the ministers of the court and China!"

"promise!"

Shameless...

Dirty...

mean……

Li Ru cursed Cao Shuo thousands of times in his heart, this guy is really too dark.

After Li Ru was taken down by the soldiers, Zhao Yu nestled in Cao Shuo's arms and said, "Husband, my hand is about to be useless, and this emperor is not easy to be."

"What does this have to do with being an emperor? How can an emperor stamp his seal when he is free?"

"You have to make it up to me, I'm going to give my wrist a good workout at night."

Chapter 284 Lu Wen Persuades Zhang Liao

"My husband's overlord marksmanship is getting better and better!"

"Xiaoyu's guns are getting better and better. Although her strength is not as strong as Wen'er's, she has many changes."

When the two were fighting to the death, Lu Wen came to the back room, smiled wickedly and said, "Husband, please see Mrs. Jia Kui."
