The Three Great Han Dynasties: Awaken Liu Bei with a scolding; you weave mats and sell sandals.

Chapter 154 Grand Tutor Wang Yun Seeks Help

After Empress Dowager He finished speaking, she wouldn't linger there any longer. There was no point in rushing things, and besides, she wasn't in a hurry at all.

Soon, Empress Dowager He's curtain was drawn back, and Zhao Zhong also disappeared. In the Golden Palace, only the young Liu Bian and a group of important officials remained, and they once again discussed important matters.

Since Yuan Wei, Liu Hong, Wang Yun, and the other three high-ranking officials did not say much about the matter, the other officials also acted as if nothing had happened and only talked about the current situation of the world.

After about two or three hours, the court session came to an end, and everyone left one by one.

As for the young emperor Liu Bian, it was only a superficial show of respect; however, among the court officials who now held power in the court, everyone knew him.

"Right now, the Empress Dowager still needs to rule from behind the curtain. The three high officials in the court are checking and balancing each other. In addition, there are the Imperial Guards of the Great Han Dynasty, the elite army of the Duke of Weining, and the Western Garden and the Outer Camp. With all these things combined, I wonder when the future of our Great Han Dynasty will arrive?"

"Alright, everyone, these matters are for those in higher positions to worry about. They have little to do with us, so there's no need to trouble yourself."

"That's absolutely right. Even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. There are also General Wei Ninggong, Grand Tutor Yuan Wei, Grand Commandant Yang Biao and other such people to deal with it. At least our Han Dynasty will be safe and sound."

Many people spoke up at the same time.

Soon, everyone had a clear idea of ​​what was going on, and one by one, the court officials left.

After Liu Hong and Yang Biao left, Wang Yun looked at Yuan Wei and naturally wanted to follow them, but he was not ready for it at the moment. He sighed, gritted his teeth, and followed them as well.

Ultimately, it was a choice between the Yuan family and Liu Hong, who was the most likely future emperor of the Han Dynasty.

If a Grand Tutor like himself doesn't even know which side to choose, then he is truly foolish.

"Grand Commandant, and Duke Weining, please also trouble your subordinates."

He said immediately.

Liu Hong glanced at him indifferently, then stopped walking.

It is still necessary to win over the dignified Grand Tutor Wang Yun. For the Liu family of Youzhou and his General's Mansion, there are only benefits and no harm.

As for the schemes the other party had previously devised, they haven't had a chance to implement them yet, have they?

Liu Hong is quite magnanimous and is willing to forgive him this time.

Grand Commandant Yang Biao nodded secretly, and Wang Yun thus completely joined their ranks.

Wang Yun's face lit up with joy, but he wasn't foolish enough to immediately pledge his loyalty to Liu Hong and express gratitude for his kindness. He would at least wait for the right opportunity to do so, so that it would be respectable and justifiable in all aspects.

Even before leaving the palace, another round of invisible factionalism had already been completed within the imperial court.

As Zhu Jun watched this scene, he felt his heart grow even more weary.

Can he really stand up to Liu Hong?

At this point, even he himself found it hard to believe. No wonder the family members looked down on him; at least at this moment, even he himself didn't quite believe in himself anymore.

Is the Zhu family really going to be destroyed in his hands?

The fact that Grand Tutor Wang Yun had taken sides put considerable pressure on the head of the Zhu family.

Liu Bei was still imprisoned in Liu Garden.

He gets three meals a day with both meat and vegetables, and the variety of flavors prevents him from getting tired of the food.

Even though he was unfamiliar with the body and had no one to accompany him, he didn't need to be afraid. He had his two brothers, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, to keep him company, as well as a group of beautiful and gentle wives and women in the garden.

It's just that Liu Bei doesn't have these distracting thoughts right now; otherwise, if it were someone else, they could easily enjoy a carefree time here.

-

Even if one doesn't have such thoughts.

Liu Bei remained troubled, and despite the advice of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he still couldn't overcome his inner turmoil.

"Yun Chang, Yi De, you two, let your elder brother out. I promise you, I will never betray you."

Liu Bei was practically swearing an oath to heaven.

Unfortunately, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei scoffed at this idea, as they knew their elder brother's temperament best.

Do you believe it?

Guan Yu looked at Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei shook his head and said in a muffled voice, "Second Brother, I'm stupid, not dumb. There's a big difference between being stupid and being dumb."

Seeing Zhang Fei's reaction, Guan Yu pointed at him, then turned to his elder brother Liu Bei and said, "Brother, do you see? Even Zhang Fei doesn't believe you, so how could I possibly believe you so easily?"

"Second brother, what are you saying? Aren't you trying to persuade eldest brother?"

Alright, Zhang Fei nodded, acknowledging the situation, seemingly resigned to the fact that all he could do was persuade Liu Bei to stay.

He's become stupid, but he can bear this injustice; he really does look quite pitiful.

Liu Bei watched their performance and understood perfectly well that they were changing the subject to refuse him, probably because they were afraid of hurting the bond between brothers. It was quite a worry for them, and it must have been quite difficult for them.

"Alright, alright."

Finally, Liu Bei waved his arm and said, "That's settled then. Whatever you all say, that's fine. Now it's all done."

Seeing Liu Bei open his mouth, the two brothers chuckled and finally nodded in complete agreement, feeling that it was feasible, without any problems or issues.

It's just a pity for Liu Bei, who's all alone in Liu Garden, not knowing when he'll regain his freedom.

After some time, Zhang Fei saw his second brother go out to find other commentaries on the Spring and Autumn Annals. He walked up to his brother and said casually, "Brother, I actually have a plan."

"hehe."

Upon hearing this, Liu Bei smiled faintly, "So you have another plan?"

"Come and listen, tell me what you have to say."

Liu Bei was not entirely convinced, but the more he acted this way, the more anxious Zhang Fei became, and naturally, he was eager to show off his abilities.

He wanted to clear his name.

"Brother, don't underestimate me. I, Zhang Fei, am also very capable. It's just that you haven't noticed me before."

Zhang Fei spoke in a muffled, aggrieved voice.

Liu Bei listened with a smile on his face, but as for whether he believed it or not, that would be too formal.

They were all brothers, but Zhang Fei was even angrier because of this. He puffed out his cheeks and said fiercely, "Brother, listen to my plan, Zhang Yide. I have studied under the Master, and I will never make a mistake on such a trivial matter. Absolutely not."
