The Rebirth of Lu Bu in the Legend of the Heroes of the Later Han Dynasty

Luoyang Yuan Mansion

"Uncle, it has been several months since I was appointed as the governor of Bohai. Why has the court not allowed me to take up the post?" The speaker was Yuan Shao, the eldest son of the Yuan family.

"Basically, it's not that the imperial court doesn't allow it, but that the Prime Minister doesn't allow it." Grand Tutor Yuan Huai shook his head helplessly.

"It's Dong Zhuo again, damn him. Without our Yuan family, would Dong Zhuo be where he is today? Why is he making things so difficult for me?" Yuan Shao was filled with resentment.

"Be careful, the prime minister now has the power to issue orders. Some people say that he is the real emperor, and the emperor is just a puppet. Some people say that Dong Zhuo has recently begun to live in the palace and visit concubines, and the emperor is also very dissatisfied. " Yuan Huai said.

"Is what uncle said true? My nephew is willing to go to the palace to meet the Holy Emperor and plot to get rid of the thieves." Yuan Shao was high-spirited.

"The guard in the palace is your brother Yuan Shu. Go quickly and be more careful. The Han Dynasty's 400-year-old inheritance is in your hands." Yuan Huai told Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao bid farewell to his uncle Yuan Huai and came outside the palace. He was stopped by the guard Yu Lin, "Who are you? Why did you enter the palace late at night? What happened?"

"I am the brother of your captain Yuan Shu. If you have something important to do with him, take me there quickly." Yuan Shao was domineering.

"People can go in, but the weapons will stay." Yu Lin stepped forward and asked Yuan Shao to leave the weapons.

Yuan Shao took off his sword, handed it to Yu Lin, and walked in alone.

"What are you doing here?" Yuan Shu didn't look down upon Yuan Shao when he saw him. He had always looked down on his brother who was a concubine.

"Gao Dao, I have requested to see the emperor on my uncle's orders, and I ask you to come with me. This is related to the prosperity and wealth of our Yuan family. Don't act like a child." After that, Yuan Shao pulled Yuan Shu and left. When Yuan Shu heard that it was about him, he did not break away and let Yuan Shao. The two came to the outside of the emperor's palace, which was guarded by Dong Zhuo's soldiers.

"Captain Yuan, why are you here late at night without the Prime Minister's order?" The guard saw that the person coming was Yuan Shu and stepped forward to ask.

"Prime Minister, seeing how hard you are working, let me guard for you for a while. Let me drink this bag of gold for you brothers." Yuan Shu took out a bag of gold from his arms and handed it to the guard with a smile on his face.

The guards were all from Xiliang and loved money most. When they saw the gold, they ignored Dong Zhuo's orders and left, leaving only the two Yuan brothers.

"Hold on," Yuan Shu saw that Yuan Shao was still in a daze and pushed him. Yuan Shao came to his senses, and the two brothers opened the door and entered.

Emperor Liu Bian was talking to Concubine Tang. Although he was deprived of power, he was at ease, singing and singing every night, somewhat like his father, Emperor Ling Liu Hong.

"Your Majesty, Yuan Shao/Yuan Shu, is here to see you. Your Majesty will live forever." The Yuan brothers knelt down to pay homage to the Emperor.

Liu Bian was startled when he saw someone suddenly breaking in. "Why did you come? Could it be that the prime minister sent you to kill me?"

"I will be punished by death for disturbing Your Majesty! But the situation is urgent and I have to risk my life to break into the palace. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Yuan Shao said.

Liu Bian straightened his body and said, "I'm sorry, but you said the situation is urgent. What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, does your Majesty know that Dong Zhuo stayed in the palace at night, raped his concubines, and considered himself the emperor of the Han Dynasty? Even..." Yuan Shao stopped talking.

"Even what?" Liu Bian asked.

"Even the Queen Mother is not immune." Yuan Shao lay on the ground, not daring to take a breath.

"What are you talking about! My mother! Dong Zhuo is bold! I want to kill him! You two, and I will kill Dong Zhuo, and I will give you a heavy reward." Liu Bian was furious and almost roared out these words. .

Yuan Shao stood up slightly and sighed, "Your Majesty, my two brothers are weak and weak, and their efforts will be in vain. I have a plan to kill the traitors of the country."

"Why don't you tell me quickly?" Liu Bian said.

"I was previously appointed as the governor of Bohai, and I would like to ask your Majesty to issue a decree to allow me to take office. When the time comes, I will call on all the heroes in the world to come to the capital to serve the king!" Yuan Shao said.

"What I don't know is that the imperial edict and the jade seal are in the Shangshu table, and are kept by the Shangshu order Li Ru. He is Dong Zhuo's confidant, and there is nothing I can do." Liu Bian said with helplessness in his tone.

"I'm asking you to borrow something from your majesty. With this thing, my two brothers can leave the city." Yuan Shao said.

"What do you want from your beloved?" Liu Bian asked.

"Emperor Gaozu's Tianzi Sword has this thing, so even the city guarding sergeant wouldn't dare to stop it," Yuan Shao said.

"Okay, I'll give it to you. My life, the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, will be handed over to the two beloved princes." Liu Bian took the Emperor's Sword and handed it to Yuan Shao.

After Yuan Shao got the Emperor's Sword, he bid farewell to the emperor and rode a fast horse to the city gate with Yuan Shu. The gatekeeper refused to open the city. Yuan Shao killed him and then raised the Emperor's Sword high. "I am Yuan Shao, the governor of Bohai. Today I serve the emperor." I ordered you to leave the city! If you stop me, you will be blocking the emperor, which is a major crime against the nine tribes. Why don’t you quickly open the city gate and let my two brothers go out of the city."

When the soldiers saw that the gatekeeper was dead, they obediently opened the gate.

"Gao Dao, you go back to your hometown in Nanyang to recruit troops, and I will go to Bohai to recruit troops. Our Yuan family's disciples and former officials are all over the world. If this is done, my two brothers will definitely be among the three nobles in the future!"
