"However, Gongda thinks that I am weak and incompetent, right?”Before Xun You could finish, Liu Bian spoke first. Hearing Liu Bian's words, Xun You hurriedly lowered his body. He indeed had such thoughts in his heart. However, he thought that it would be completely different if Liu Bian exposed it. However, he was not too worried. Xun You was a smart person. He naturally could tell that Liu Bian did not have any intention of blaming him. However, he still spoke. "In the past, it was, but today, I feel that my judgment in the past was wrong.”
"Oh? Then I'm not too much of a failure! There is still one person who will tell me the truth.”Liu Bian replied indifferently. He turned around and sat on the stone bench. Xun You also retreated to the side and asked. "However, there is one thing that this official does not understand. With the emperor's performance today, he should have pretended to be weak in the past to show his enemy that he was weak. Emperor, if this was the case when Dong Zhuo entered the capital, the ministers would respond, and the ministers in the court would not want Dong Zhuo to enter the capital, then Dong Zhuo might not succeed.”
Indeed, Dong Zhuo's entry into the capital had caused everyone to feel insecure. Now, many powerful officials had no choice but to avoid Dong Zhuo or submit to him. Even if they were not loyal to the Han Dynasty, in order to prevent Dong Zhuo from entering the capital, they would inevitably be summoned by Liu Bian. However, Liu Bian was weak at that time and naturally had no choice. Liu Bian had already thought of an excuse, so he was not worried. "Speaking of which, zhen was acting smart and shot himself in the foot.”
"Dong Zhuo is very powerful. When he came to the capital and saved me and my brother, I could already see that he was ambitious. I was afraid that he would rebel in the future. After thinking hard, I decided to pretend to be crazy and timid, hoping that Dong Zhuo would let down his guard and make him think that I was easy to control. I didn't expect my brother to deal with Dong Zhuo in an orderly manner. Dong Zhuo is actually more satisfied with him.”Liu Bian knew a little about this period of history.
After the death of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, He Jin was killed by the Shi Chang Shi. Later, He Jin's old subordinates and various aristocratic families led troops into the palace to kill the Shi Chang Shi in the name of killing eunuchs and taking revenge for He Jin. The Shi Chang Shi abducted Liu Bian and Liu Xie and left Luoyang. On the way, Liu Bian and Liu Xie were separated, but they were rescued by Dong Zhuo who came from Xiliang. At that time, Liu Bian was already frightened, but Liu Xie, who was a few years younger than Liu Bian, dealt with Dong Zhuo in an orderly manner without fear, which was why Dong Zhuo took a fancy to Liu Xie.
Xun You understood that there were many powerful officials who wanted to control the Emperor, and those who could be controlled were usually the weak Emperors. This was why the Emperor had acted so badly to deceive Dong Zhuo. However, he had not expected that not only did this not make Dong Zhuo put away his wild ambitions, but he had also taken a fancy to Prince Chen Liu, who had the demeanor of a king. This was why he said that he had shot himself in the foot. "Ding! Xun You's loyalty to the host has increased by 15. Current loyalty is 80. Overlord Charm increased by 5 points. Current Overlord Charm: 35.”
"For the sake of the Han royal family, the emperor is willing to endure humiliation and bear the burden. He truly has the courage of Gou Jian in the past.”Xun You hurriedly bowed down. At the same time, Liu Bian heard a voice that was like the sound of nature. Adding on the increase in Ding Guan's loyalty, he had gained a total of 10 points today. It was a great harvest. Most importantly, he had obtained Xun You's loyalty. Although Xun You had not said anything, Liu Bian believed that there would be no problem.
"But this time, there's no point in saying anything more. Dong Zhuo is a wolf with wild ambitions. Today, I embarrassed him in court. Zhen believes that within half a month, he will definitely make a move on me!”With the mission notification, Liu Bian was sure that it would be within half a month. Dong Zhuo wanted to depose the emperor, and after that, he would find a chance to kill him. He couldn't wait any longer.
"I wonder if the emperor has any good ideas?" How could Xun You not know that Dong Zhuo was so powerful that if he really wanted to depose the Emperor, even if the civil and military officials opposed it, it would be useless. Dong Zhuo had hundreds of thousands of soldiers in control of the capital, and everyone in the court was in danger. No one could stand against Dong Zhuo. Liu Bian was an Emperor with no real power, and Xun You was smart enough, but if he used him to conquer cities and rule the country, it would be impossible for no one to oppose Dong Zhuo. Of course, Xun You had not thought of one thing.
"If Dong Zhuo really deposes the Emperor half a month later, I naturally can't sit still and wait for my death. It doesn't matter if I don't become the Emperor, but if the Han Dynasty falls into the hands of such a traitor, I'm afraid that tens of thousands of people in the world will live in a fiery life. I won't agree to it. Gongda, you are the only person I can trust now.”Liu Bian turned around and looked at Xun You with a determined expression.
"What is it? The Emperor is leaving Luoyang? The emperor is the ruler of a country, how can he?" Xun You was also shocked when he heard this. He had never thought of this before. He had only thought about how Liu Bian would fight Dong Zhuo. However, this was impossible. Liu Bian had no one around him. He didn't even have a single soldier. How could he fight Dong Zhuo? He didn't expect Liu Bian to think of avoiding him.
"Gongda, have you forgotten that Gou Jian was brave? If I escape, I might be able to find a chance of survival. In the future, when I recruit troops, I might have a chance to attack Luoyang and kill that thief Dong. If I stay in Luoyang, I will only die. Dong Zhuo is not the only person with ill intentions in the court. Even if Dong Zhuo is not there, there is probably another Dong Zhuo. I am gambling. Only by destroying and establishing can I have a chance to make a comeback! The problem now was…Is Gongda willing to help me?" Liu Bian was not worried that Xun You would leak the news, so he dared to say it.
"You Ding will go through fire and water for Your Majesty!" Xun You heard this and knelt down. At this time, Xun You was really subdued by Liu Bian. The emperor in front of him was brave and resourceful, and could endure humiliation. Didn't the former King of Yue, Gou Jian, finally recover his country like this? In front of him was the Sage Lord he had been waiting for so long. He had nothing to hesitate about. "Good! I will pay more attention to Dong Zhuo during this period of time. Once Dong Zhuo takes action, the whole city will be on alert. It will be difficult for me to leave the city.”
"Leaving the city is not a difficult matter for You, but with Your Majesty's status, I'm afraid it will be difficult!”Xun You replied. The Xun family was also a great aristocratic family in Luoyang. Although Dong Zhuo was powerful, he had been recruiting all the great aristocratic families. This was enough to show that Dong Zhuo was still afraid, so Dong Zhuo's people still had to give him some face.
