Three Kingdoms: Jiuyuan Tiger

Chapter 503 Dong Zhuo got it right

"The emperor really wants to give the throne to Zhenxiang?" Dong Zhuo asked with a smile.

"Report to Xiangguo, that's true. But the Son of Heaven has a request, if Xiangguo refuses, then the matter of the Zen position will be dropped." Xiao Huangmen replied.

"If the Son of Heaven wants anything, just tell me." Dong Zhuo said.

"The Son of Heaven asks Xiangguo to treat him kindly after the Zen seat, otherwise the Zen seat will be nothing." Little Huangmen replied.

"What did Truth think it was? It's just such a trivial matter! Please rest assured, the emperor, even if he doesn't say anything, Truth will not treat him badly! Hahaha!" Dong Zhuo laughed loudly.

"That's the case, there is no need to delay. Please Xiangguo prepare the car and drive, and enter the palace to discuss with the emperor about the Zen seat." Xiao Huangmen saluted.

"Okay! You go back first, the truth is, I will prepare the car and enter the palace!" Dong Zhuo got up and said.

"No! The villain will leave." Xiao Huangmen saluted and left.

"Prepare the car, the truth is going to enter the palace!" Dong Zhuo said impatiently.

……

Afterwards, Dong Zhuo's convoy drove towards the palace.

As Liu Yu expected, Dong Zhuo did not dispatch troops to hunt down Cao Ning because he only cared about the Zen position.

In fact, even if there was no Zen position, Dong Zhuo would not choose to tear up his face with Cao Ning.

As the number one general of the Xiliang Army, Cao Ning meant a lot to Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo would not destroy this trump card himself unless it was absolutely necessary.

In front of the palace, Dong Zhuo ordered a group of guards to wait in front of the gate, and took only two guards to the emperor's bedroom.

Under normal circumstances, Dong Zhuo would take Cao Ning with him wherever he went. In this city of Chang'an, if you were to fight alone, no one would be Cao Ning's opponent.

But just after experiencing the Fengyi Pavilion incident, Cao Ning did not take the initiative to plead guilty, and Dong Zhuo was in a hurry to discuss the Zen position, so he did not bring Cao Ning with him.

Therefore, Cao Ning is an indispensable link in the execution of the plan to kill Dong Zhuo. If Cao Ning does not turn his back on the water, even if he can trick Dong Zhuo into the palace, Yang Biao and others will not be able to kill Dong Zhuo.

In front of the palace door, Cao Ning hid in the dark, holding the black oil cross and three-pronged stripe gun tightly in his hand.

Dong Zhuo's obese body appeared in the distance, Cao Ning licked his lips excitedly, his eyes glowed fiercely.

As if being stared at by a dormant poisonous snake, Dong Zhuo shivered unconsciously.

But now Dong Zhuo's mind is full of the Zen position, he has even thought about the name of the country and the name of the year, how could he take into account this vague murderous intention?
When they were getting close, Liu Yu suddenly walked out of the bedroom, holding an imperial decree in his hand and shouting loudly: "The national thief Dong Zhuo has blasphemed the imperial court and brought disaster to the world. I obey the emperor's edict to kill this thief!"

After Liu Yu's words fell, more than a hundred soldiers rushed out of Liu Xie's bedroom, and all these soldiers brandished knives and guns to kill Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo was taken aback when he saw it, and then he flew into a rage: "Zhu Zi'an dare?"

While talking, Dong Zhuo stepped back, as long as he retreated outside the palace, he would be safe!
Up to now, Dong Zhuo still doesn't know that the so-called Zen position is just a cover, and the little emperor has murderous intentions for him!

The hero doesn't suffer from the immediate loss, he will come back to clean up this group of Xiao Xiaoxiao when he gets away safely!

"Where is Cao Ning? Where is Cao Ning?" In desperation, Dong Zhuo subconsciously called out Cao Ning's name.

"Cao Ning is here to kill the thief!" Cao Ning slowly walked out from the shadows, blocking Dong Zhuo's retreat.

Seeing Cao Ning, Dong Zhuo's face was full of disbelief: "Are you going to tell the truth?"

Cao Ning sneered and said, "It's just an expedient measure to stoop to be a thief. Do you really think that I will serve you for the rest of my life?"

Dong Zhuo grieved and said: "The truth treats you well! Are you going to betray the truth just for the sake of Master Li?"

Cao Ning said in awe-inspiring manner: "To eliminate thieves for the country, what do you have to do with a woman?"

Dong Zhuo hurriedly said: "Cao Ning, as long as you escort Benxiang out of the palace and return to Meiwu, Benxiang will reward Li Shishi back to you! Not only that, but after Benxiang takes the throne, he will make you the crown prince!"

Cao Ning didn't answer, and suddenly stabbed Dong Zhuo with the black oil cross and three-pronged stripe gun in his hand.

"I'm not reconciled to the truth!" Dong Zhuo's neck twisted, and he died.

……

"Xiangguo was assassinated by the little emperor, and died at the gun of Cao Ning." Li Ru looked at the information in his hand with disbelief on his face.

"Xiangguo entered the palace, why didn't you tell me!" Li Ru slapped the table resentfully.

"Forget it, hurry up and find the young master, otherwise it will be too late!" Li Ru hurriedly got up to look for Dong Ran.

……

"Young master, the lord has gone!" Li Ru said to Dong Ran.

"Don't lie to me." Dong Ran said with a livid face.

"Young master, how dare your subordinates lie to you about such an important matter?" Li Ru said anxiously.

"You all go down!" Dong Ran waved his hands and retreated to the left and right.

"What happened?" Dong Ran asked anxiously.

"Hey, it's all here, young master, let's see for yourself." Li Ru sighed slowly.

"Please tell me how to do it." After reading it, Dong Ran said.

"Does the young master want to avenge the lord, or gather all the troops first?" Li Ru asked.

"It is necessary to take revenge for my father, but it does not have to be done now." Dong Ran seemed to be answering the wrong question.

"That's the case, before the news of the death of the lord, please summon the generals and take back the military power in his hands." Li Ru cupped his hands.

"What if they refuse to return the military power?" Dong Ran asked.

"Arrange the ambush, whoever refuses to hand in, just kill him!" Li Ru said with a sad smile.

"Is it inhumane to act like this?" Dong Ran hesitated.

"In extraordinary times, if you do extraordinary things, the young master is kind to them, but they may not be kind to the young master!" Li Ru sneered.

"What you said is true, that's the case, then follow your instructions." Dong Ran said.

"Young master, among the generals in Xiliang, not many can be completely trusted, but Xiong Kuohai is an exception. You can give him some work as appropriate." Li Ru added.

"Thank you sir!" Dong Ran cupped his hands.

"You are the master, and your subordinates are ministers. Why do you say 'thank you'? Besides, the subordinate is still your brother-in-law. Even in terms of this relationship, you don't have to thank me." Li Ru stroked his beard and smiled.

"What brother-in-law said is true, but there is one thing I don't understand, and I hope brother-in-law can clarify." Dong Ran said.

"Young master, please speak." Li Ru looked at Dong Ran with piercing eyes.

"After gathering all the soldiers and generals, should I return to Xiliang or stay in Chang'an?" Dong Ran asked.

"Then it depends on whether our soldiers and horses can capture Chang'an City! The two of us have to leave the city to take shelter. Since Cao Ning and others dare to kill the lord, they must have prepared a second mover. This Chang'an City cannot Stay." Li Ru replied.

"If the city of Chang'an can be captured after the troops are rectified, the young master can continue to hold the little emperor hostage and do the thing of 'holding the emperor to order the princes'; if it cannot be captured, we have to return to Liangzhou to make plans. But No matter what, you can't lose Meiwu, because Meiwu is your foundation! As long as you keep it, you will be invincible!" Li Ru added.

　The second watch arrives!
