The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

"Why, the battlefield is changeable, so it's not worth it to die accidentally. The late emperor treated me well, so don't worry about it, King Chen Liu." Liu Ke said.

"I'm going!" Liu Xie simply played a rogue.

Liu Ke really didn't know how to treat this stubborn boy, didn't he say he was weak?

In the end, he agreed.

The next day, Yangzhou's [-] troops entered Runan mighty and mightily, without any concealment.

Dong Zhuo was very surprised when he found out, Liu Dingfang is not crazy, is he?

"My lord, we should be courteous first and then soldiers!" Li Ru said.

Dong Zhuo nodded and sent Li Ru to Liu Ke's army.

As soon as Li Ru entered the barracks, he held the imperial decree and asked Liu Ke to hand over King Chenliu.Li Ru is Dong Zhuo's chief counselor, and his arrival makes King Chenliu uneasy.

"May I ask, what crime did King Chen Liu commit?" Liu Ke questioned.

"The vassal king can't leave the fief without purpose." Li Ru said neither humble nor overbearing.

"Let Dong Zhongying come here!" Liu Ke didn't bother to explain.

"Dongyanghou is planning to resist the edict?" Li Ru said aggressively.

"No, the imperial decree has not been handed over to me yet." Liu Ke shrugged and said again, "Come here! Prepare the cauldron!"

The hot oil pan was boiling in front of Li Ru, which made people's hair stand on end.

Liu Kegao sat on the stage and just stared at Li Ru without saying a word.

Li Ru was sweating coldly, his legs trembling unnaturally.

Liu Ke's meaning is already obvious, as long as you dare to read the imperial decree, this cauldron is prepared for you.

It depends on whose courage is fat.

The imperial decree in Li Ru's hands has become a hot potato. Whether he reads it or not, he will be in big trouble.

If you read it, your life will be gone.

If you don't read it, the reputation of being greedy for life and afraid of death will spread.

How does this affect Dongyanghou?

Not at all, because he has made up his mind to resist the decree, whether he reads it or not, he will resist it.

Swear to the death to keep King Chenliu.

What will the world think of it then?

People will only praise Dongyang Hou Gaoyi for protecting King Chenliu without fear of power.

Everyone knew that this was not an imperial decree at all, but the decree of General He Jin.

Chapter 85 Li Ru's poisonous plan

Li Ru returned to the Xiliang camp in despair.

Dong Zhuo was extremely angry, and Liu Dingfang didn't give him any face.

"My lord, the last general invites you to fight!" Hua Xiong volunteered.

Just as Dong Zhuo was about to agree, Li Ru spoke first, and he said with confidence:

"My lord, Liu Dingfang cherishes his reputation. If that's the case, why don't I wait for it!"

Dong Zhuo stroked his chubby chin and said, "What does Wen You say?"

"As long as we let out rumors that Liu Dingfang wants to make Chenliu king, Yangzhou will be destroyed without attack." Li Ru said.

Now that the great Han already has an emperor, now that you, Liu Dingfang, are hiding King Chen Liu privately, is it because you have ulterior motives or what?

In this way, Liu Ke is no longer protecting the emperor's youngest son, but deliberately rebelling.

Dong Zhuo applauded.

"This matter will trouble Wenyou!"

"No, no, there are more suitable candidates under my command, what do you think of Yuan Gonglu?" Li Ru suggested.

Dong Zhuo thought for a while, Yuan Shu is a local snake, he is familiar with Yangzhou, it would be best to leave it to him.Moreover, there are not many people who know current affairs like him, so it is not impossible to give him some credit.

It can also buy people's hearts and serve multiple purposes.

"Leave this matter to Yuan Gonglu!"

When Li Ru came to report, Yuan Shu really felt flattered.He originally thought that Dong Zhuo would kick him aside if he took military power, happiness came too suddenly.

Mainly, it can disgust Liu Dingfang!

Therefore, Yuan Shu sent thousands of eloquent people to spread rumors everywhere.

In just two days, the whole Yangzhou was full of uproar.

When Liu Ye got the news, he immediately reported it to Liu Ke.

At this time, Liu Ke was holding a military meeting in the commander's account to discuss how to deal with Dong Zhuo's 20 army.
