Hundreds of officials stared at Liu Bian with wide eyes. Their expressions were different, but they all had one thing in common: they were shocked by Liu Bian's performance.
In the past, all the officials had a different impression of Liu Bian. In the past, Liu Bian was weak and timid. He would be scared to tears if he saw anyone who was a little ferocious, let alone such a grand gathering of officials.
But now, he was acting like this?
The ministers were jealous!
"We absolutely can't let him live. We absolutely can't let this person live!”
Especially Dong Zhuo, who felt a sense of regret when he saw Liu Bian's mighty performance. He felt that Liu Bian's previous performance was all a disguise. Why didn't he kill him directly back then?
"A useless emperor is a useless emperor. So what if you're pretending? Now that I have Luoyang firmly in my hands, even if you have world-shaking talent, you can't do anything to my hundreds of thousands of Western Liang cavalry.”
After feeling regretful, Dong Zhuo could only find a reason to comfort himself, lest he hurt his liver.
"Li Ru, hurry up and welcome the new Emperor into the palace.”
With a strong sense of unease, Dong Zhuo only wanted to finish the abdication ceremony as soon as possible and kill Liu Bian to eliminate future troubles.
As Dong Zhuo's confidant and son-in-law, Li Ru naturally understood his intentions.
Immediately.
"Welcome, new emperor."
Li Ru bowed slightly, cupped his fists, and shouted toward the outside of the hall, temporarily taking over the duties of a eunuch.
Ta, ta, ta. There was a series of hurried footsteps. Outside the hall, a dozen heads appeared. A group of people surrounded a young, petite child who was wearing a dragon robe and an imperial crown.
This person was Liu Bian's half-brother, Liu Xie.
"We welcome the new emperor."
Li Ru shouted again. He looked out of the hall respectfully and suddenly knelt on the ground to salute Liu Xie.
When the ministers saw this scene, most of them were terrified and furious. They wanted to criticize, but they were afraid that Dong Zhuo would blame them. It must be known that during the days when Dong Zhuo controlled Luoyang, countless officials had been killed. They did not dare to take this risk again.
"The new emperor has returned.”
Seeing the ministers 'reaction, Dong Zhuo's ugly face flashed with a hint of mockery. Then, he shouted angrily.
"As the saying goes, a country cannot have two masters. The Young Emperor was personally appointed by the previous Emperor, and he is still the Emperor, the only Emperor.”
An old official wearing the official uniform of the current dynasty stepped out from the second position of civil officials. He had a resolute expression on his face. It was the current minister, Ding Guan.
"Ding Guan, how dare you disobey me…"
"May I ask which emperor we wish to meet, Prime Minister?”Before Dong Zhuo could show his anger, another voice sounded.
It was Yuan Kui, the number one civil official, the Grand Marshal of the court, the four generations of three dukes. His tone was firm and his body was filled with unyielding intent.
" Grand Commandant…" Ding Guan's eyes were filled with excitement.
"May I ask which emperor we are visiting?”
As Ding Guan and Yuan Kui spoke, the officials immediately echoed in unison. Their voices were all upright and unyielding. With such unity, having a leader was one, and most of them were loyal to the Han Dynasty.
