What group are you guys?

Chapter 161 How about I kowtow to you?

The smaller the meeting, the bigger the matter!
Similarly, the bigger the meeting, the smaller the matter!

There were four participants in total in Changle Palace.

Dong Zhuo, Li Ru, Dong Bai, Li Qingyuan!

Well, actually, there should have been only three people, but Dong Bai insisted on squeezing in to join in the fun, and Li Qingyuan and Dong Zhuo couldn't bear her pleading, so they had to let her join in.

What about the content of today's meeting?
That is to force the current young emperor Liu Xie to abdicate and let Liu Bian continue to be the emperor.

"How ridiculous! I finally deposed the emperor, and now you want to reinstate him. Are you planning to slap me in the face?"

Dong Zhuo said angrily that he had been struggling for so long, even giving power to major families, before he pulled Liu Bian off the throne. As a result, now Li Qingyuan wanted Liu Bian to continue to be the emperor. Hadn't he worked in vain?

"Brother, you don't care about your face anyway, why are you so persistent!"

Li Qingyuan admonished indifferently, but when Dong Bai heard him call him that, he got so angry that he stretched out his fingers to pinch the soft flesh on his waist and began to twist it.

That was her grandpa, and this bastard actually called him brother. Does that mean he wants him to be her grandfather?
Although Dong Bai is often forced to call the other party "Dad" these days, the term "grandfather" is still too high!
"What do you mean, little bastard?"

Dong Zhuo stood up angrily, feeling that he was being underestimated.

"Brother, you don't have a son, so even if you want to usurp the throne, you don't have an heir. Why bother making the Dong family the same as the Huo family?"

Huo Guang deposed and enthroned emperors in his time, and he held the dual positions of Grand Marshal and Generalissimo. Although it may not sound as majestic as Dong Zhuo's Grand Tutor, Huo Guang's power at that time was far greater than Dong Zhuo's.

After all, Huo Guang could command the world with just one imperial edict, while Dong Zhuo’s edict couldn’t even get out of Hulao Pass!
However, no matter how prominent Huo Guang was, after his death Liu Bingyi wiped out the Huo family, leaving behind even the branch of Huo Guang that was adopted by Huo Qubing.

It is true that what the Huo family did at that time was indeed a way to get themselves killed, but what Liu Bingyi did was really too ruthless.

It would be good even if we could leave a waste to continue the Huo family's bloodline!
It is precisely because of Liu Bingyi's revenge that powerful officials will never surrender once their power becomes too great to be restrained.

Just like Cao Cao for example.

In fact, Cao Cao really had the desire to restore the Han Dynasty at the beginning, but with the example of Huo Guang, even if he was willing to return power to Emperor Xian of Han, his subordinates would not agree.

After all, the choice between further promotion and advancement, and taking a step back and death and extinction of the clan, any normal person would know what to choose.

"Humph, even if we let that kid Liu Bian continue to be the emperor, won't he bear a grudge?"

In fact, the reason why Dong Zhuo deposed and enthroned emperors was just to show off his power. He thought that he could depose and enthronize emperors at will, so why don’t you so-called aristocratic families kowtow to me?

But who would have thought that even though he had accomplished what Huo Guang could do back then, he did not receive worship and admiration. Instead, a group of princes from Guandong came to attack him in the name of clearing the court of corrupt officials.

Dong Zhuo was so angry that he killed all the members of the Yuan family, which had been officials for four generations. But even so, everyone was just afraid of them, not respectful!

Even the noble families in various places were too lazy to pay attention to him and were not willing to play with him. This made Dong Zhuo helpless. He was able to kill the Yuan family because the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu led the attack on him, which was a legitimate reason. Moreover, just killing one Yuan family caused chaos in the world. If he wanted to deal with other noble families, even he would have to consider the consequences.

For example, Situ Wang Yun who is still jumping around till now!
Cao Cao had taken the Seven-Star Knife from Wang Yun to assassinate Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo was not a fool, so how could he not know that Wang Yun was behind the assassination of Cao Cao?

But don’t think that Wang Yun is a marginal figure just because he used the chain of tricks only once. He is the head of the Taiyuan King generation!

Among the Five Surnames and Seven Ancestral Families, the Wang family of Taiyuan has the longest heritage. Their ancestor is Wang Jian, one of the four famous generals in the Warring States Period. Xiu'er, the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, once recruited Wang Ba, the ancestor of Wang Yun, as the Secretary of State.

Maybe the Wang family has not produced many important figures in recent years and cannot be compared with the Yuan family, which has three officials in four generations. But in terms of historical heritage and family background, the Yuan family cannot catch up with the Wang family.

People always ask why, facing Diao Chan, one of the four great beauties, both Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu could not resist each other's charm, but Wang Yun was willing to give away such a great beauty?
Wang Yun is from a genuine thousand-year-old family. He has seen all kinds of good things and grew up surrounded by beauties. Diao Chan is just a beautiful tool to him. Only people like Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu who have fought all the way and have never seen any beauties would be completely controlled by the other side.

"Don't worry about this, brother. I will have people keep an eye on the little emperor and Empress Dowager He. They are just nominal seals and will not have any real power!"

"If you have no real power, why would you do this?"

"Brother, don't you think it would be more fun with the bonus of being the Queen Mother?"

"Fuck! You're worse than me!"

After hearing Li Qingyuan's reason, Dong Zhuo was stunned for a long time before he cursed angrily.

Even he hasn't thought about such a question.

After all, the imperial power still has some dignity. Dong Zhuo can kill the emperor, but he really can't do such a thing as humiliating the queen mother.

Li Ru was almost depressed listening to this. So such a big thing as deposing and enthroning the emperor was just to give you more energy when you play role-playing games, right?

Do you think this is human language?

If the ancestors of the Han Dynasty knew about this, they would probably crawl out of their tombs and strangle you to death!
"Anyway, you are still the Grand Master, so you should continue to do what you did before. I will ask Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others to have a meal and drink with you. We will all be friends from now on! We must get along well!"

"The Yuan Huai family was ordered to be executed by the Grand Tutor. Can the Yuan brothers reconcile?"

Li Ru finally caught the topic at this time and asked quickly.

"It's not a big deal! It's just killing their whole family. Don't worry, the Yuan brothers are not the kind of petty people!"

Li Qingyuan said indifferently.

As the saying goes, a real man should not recognize his relatives. Anyway, those people in the Yuan family were given to Dong Zhuo to be killed by the two Yuans in order to fight for power. Although on the surface the two of them must pretend to be irreconcilable with Dong Zhuo, privately they both wanted to kowtow to Dong Zhuo!
Good kill!
Just like those illegitimate children who have always hoped that their rich fathers and their entire family would die soon, Dong Zhuo had cleared away all obstacles that prevented the two of them from inheriting the family estate. It was such a great favor that the two brothers could not express their gratitude without kowtow!
