Liu Bian was sitting on the throne with his eyes closed. The civil and military officials below were all thinking differently. Liu Bian's performance was too different from before, and they were unable to react in time. It was also because of this that Liu Bian's sudden display of the demeanor of a king shocked them. It should be known that the people present were either in the officialdom or experienced in the battlefield. How could they be so easily frightened? The current situation was just one that could not be turned around for a moment.
For example, if a person was used to being in a dark place, he would feel uncomfortable when he went to a place with light. Liu Bian shouted and did not dare to say anything else. They all stood respectfully below. Time passed minute by minute. The morning court session began at the fifth watch. Unknowingly, it was already the sixth watch. In other words, everyone had been waiting for more than an hour for the morning court session. However, Dong Zhuo still did not come. Some of the officials could not help but complain.
Although he was not particularly clear, Liu Bian had already heard it. The officials below were all accusing Dong Zhuo of being bold and reckless. Liu Bian was unhappy when he heard this. Those who would complain were those who would protect themselves. Usually, they would only say it verbally. If Dong Zhuo was really in front of them, they would have been so scared that they would not even dare to fart. The officials who really knew how to advise, such as Huangfu Song, did not say a word. About half an hour later, Dong Zhuo still did not come. The grumbling officials also grew louder.
"Enough! What kind of place do you think this is? Did he think that this court was a market? What's with the noise?" Looking at these guys, Liu Bian was very unhappy. Usually, Dong Zhuo was here, but he didn't see them acting so righteous. He couldn't bear to see them acting so hypocritical. Seeing Liu Bian's anger, the officials were frightened. Many of them who had been denouncing Dong Zhuo immediately knelt down. "Emperor, please calm down! Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
Seeing that most of the people had knelt down, and that the others who had not spoken could not continue to stand, they also knelt down. Only then did the entire court quieten down. Otherwise, it would have really been a little like a market. At the same time as the officials knelt down, a rough voice came from outside the hall. "Hahaha! It seems that today's court meeting is very lively. How can such a lively scene be without this prime minister!”
A fat man was dragging his body outside the palace. He was dressed luxuriously, almost as if he was the emperor. His face was full of fat and oil. This man was Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhongying. Dong Zhuo was also a fierce general on the battlefield. He had defeated the Qiang people outside the Pass many times and was considered a fierce general. However, in recent years, he had been greedy for wealth and pleasure. Now he was full of oil and was no longer as brave as before. However, his power was getting stronger and stronger, suppressing Liu Bian in the past. Dong Zhuo took a step forward. He could only take a step back. At this point, he already had nowhere to retreat.
"Hmm? Why are all the ministers kneeling? Get up, all of you!" Dong Zhuo entered the hall and immediately felt that the atmosphere was not right. He looked around and saw that all the officials were kneeling on the ground. It was nothing much for those cowards who were usually fawning over him, but even Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi, and the other officials who were not afraid of him were kneeling. However, Dong Zhuo did not feel anything. As usual, he treated himself as the one giving orders. However, after Dong Zhuo spoke, no one stood up. "Milords, why are you doing this? Is my words not good enough?"
"Pa!"
"Presumptuous! Dong Zhuo, how dare you come late to court? I didn't tell you to come, but you dared to come in. I didn't say anything here, but you actually gave me an order. Dong Zhongying, how dare you? Are you trying to rebel?”Activate skill, Imperial Heavenly Protection! At this moment, Liu Bian suddenly slammed the table in front of him. The heavy sound echoed through the entire court, and Liu Bian thought to himself. The Heavenly Protection was immediately activated, and the Imperial Qi of the Founding Ancestor was added to his body, instantly enveloping Liu Bian's body with the might of the Imperial Family.
"You... You…" After activating Emperor's Protection, a strong pressure shook his mind. Although Dong Zhuo was a fierce general in the past, he was still shocked at this moment. However, his ruthlessness had already decreased a lot. Although it had decreased a lot, it was still much stronger than Liu Bian, who had never even seen a person kill. Therefore, Liu Bian immediately activated his skill. Otherwise, he might not be able to suppress Dong Zhuo.
"Dong Zhuo, you're so bold. You really don't put me in your eyes. Are you really going to rebel? Kneel down!" Liu Bian slammed the table again. Dong Zhuo was shocked earlier, but now he was shouted at by Liu Bian. He immediately reacted. Although he didn't put the little Emperor in his eyes, he was still the Emperor. If he was the Emperor, he should address him as the Emperor. However, he had called him 'you' when he was shocked just now. This was already disrespectful to the Emperor. Moreover, Liu Bian had deliberately made the situation serious, and he had deliberately charged him with the crime of rebellion.
Even Dong Zhuo was dumbfounded by the exchange. However, it was not a big deal. Dong Zhuo was not a smart person. He was naturally ambitious, but most of the time, he had people around him to give him advice. Without Li Ru around, he did not know how to deal with it. Coupled with the pressure from the Imperial Heavenly Protection, even the other kneeling officials felt a deep pressure, let alone Dong Zhuo.
Especially Dong Zhuo, who seemed to have suffered a heavy blow to his head. He could not help but recall the scene in his dream where he was torn apart by the golden dragon. He was so scared that he went soft and subconsciously knelt on the ground when he heard Liu Bian. "Your Majesty, your humble servant is loyal to the Han Dynasty and has no intention of rebelling.”
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission " Change Impression ". There are more than five people in the court who have changed their opinion of the host. You have received a reward and one chance to draw the lottery. I hope the host will continue to work hard!”Suddenly, a voice sounded in his ear. In the past, the Emperor was weak and incompetent. He would tremble in fear when he saw Dong Zhuo. Now, he was able to suppress Dong Zhuo without fear, which greatly changed the image of the people. At this time, many officials could not help but think of the scene of the purple qi coming from the east and the dragon flying in the sky yesterday. Could there be some connection between the two?
"Name: Dong Zhuo (Zhong Ying), Age: 58 (Dong Zhuo died in 192 at the age of 61), Identity: Prime Minister, Commander-in-chief, 83. 81. Intelligence: 50. Loyalty: 2 (What medicine did this little emperor eat today, how dare he talk to me like this) Exclusive skill: Brutal-Brutal and violent, licentious and immoral, causing the surrounding enemies to feel fear. [Note: The effect is reduced for those with strong willpower, but increased for those with weak willpower.]”Liu Bian activated his Eye of Insight and immediately obtained Dong Zhuo's data.
