Don't worry, Guan Ding. You didn't disappoint me. In this life, I won't let you die tragically. And Yuan Kui, you didn't disappoint me. And the ministers didn't disappoint me. Naturally, I won't disappoint you either.”
Liu Bian keenly kept the two officials 'gazes to himself and returned them with a meaningful look, causing the latter to be naturally surprised.
In truth, Liu Bian had seen everything that had happened in his heart. No matter how much Dong Zhuo had humiliated him, Liu Bian had remained calm and collected. He wanted to see how the officials would react. When he saw their reactions, Liu Bian was naturally satisfied. He knew that the officials had not lost faith in him or the burly man.
"Liu Xie, oh Liu Xie, my good brother, are you impatient for the throne?”Liu Bian's sharp gaze swept across the hall. At some point, Liu Xie had actually come into the hall from outside. He was also looking at the dragon throne on the high platform with a burning gaze. The meaning behind his gaze was self-evident.
"The throne originally belonged to me, and it will belong to me in the future. Dong Zhuo, I'll submit to you first. After I obtain the throne, I'll think of a way to get rid of you. As for my useless brother, I'm sorry.”
Liu Xie, who was only nine years old, was immersed in an ambition that did not belong to a hero. He thought fiercely, but he did not expect that everything he did had been seen by Liu Bian, his good-for-nothing brother, and that he was treated as a joke.
"Your Majesty, let's begin the abdication!"
Dong Zhuo's eyes were filled with an intense threat as he shouted.
"Dong Zhuo, are you sure you want me to abdicate?”
At this moment, Liu Bian was no longer immersed in his thoughts. He coldly stared at Dong Zhuo and shouted,
"What, you, you want to disobey?”Dong Zhuo's large hand was already on the saber at his waist, and his killing intent was revealed.
"Disobey?"
"What a big hat!"
Liu Bian's handsome face flashed with a look that was different from his age.
"I wonder if Dong Xiangguo dares to let me ask His Highness a question!”
"What else is there to ask? Hurry up and abdicate.”Seeing Liu Bian's smile, which seemed to have everything under control, Dong Zhuo became more and more uneasy. His large hand had already grasped the hilt of his saber by his waist.
Liu Bian ignored Dong Zhuo's threat and raised his head high. He looked at the officials below the stage with a sharp gaze that seemed to be real. He swept across each official and took in all of them.
"Today!"
"I only have one question. Who among you is still loyal to me?”
Liu Bian was young, but his majestic voice resounded in the Hall of Great Strength, directly entering the hearts of everyone.
Hearing this!
The ministers were shocked and fell into deep thought.
Surprisingly, Dong Zhuo did not make things difficult for him. Instead, he looked at Liu Bian with a mocking gaze."You still think that someone will help you even when you're about to die? Alright, this prime minister wants to see who dares to help. As long as they dare to stand up, this prime minister will definitely kill their entire family.”
A minute passed.
The Hall of Great Strength, which was originally still noisy, fell into a state of silence. Even if a strand of hair fell, one could hear it clearly.
His Highness and the ministers were still in a fierce battle of thoughts.
Liu Bian's seemingly simple question was actually a question about the life and death of His Highness 'ministers.
Loyalty to the Han Dynasty and the Emperor was equivalent to opposing Dong Zhuo. With Dong Zhuo's vicious personality, he would never let them go. They didn't dare to. The choice between loyalty and life was just one step away.
When one minute was almost two minutes, the empty hall was finally no longer calm.
