Three Kingdoms: Peak Summons

Chapter 797 Leader (Part 2)

Chapter 795: Alliance Leader (Part 2)

 Even if Liu Xiu betrayed Dong Zhuo this time and killed him directly, he still could not erase the fact that he had been loyal to Dong Zhuo.

Of course, the attitude of the major princes towards Liu Xiu was only disgust, but it was far from disgusting.

This is because Liu Xiu is a clan member of the Han Dynasty. If Liu Xiu was not named Liu, he might not even have the chance to "correct his evil ways and return to righteousness".

The major princes jointly rejected him, which made Liu Xiu angry, but at the same time, he was more happy in his heart.

 Fortunately, he saw the right opportunity and left Dong Zhuo in time. If it had been later, his fate would have been to be buried with Dong Zhuo.

Yuan Shu was extremely dissatisfied with Liu Xiu's behavior of being the last one to arrive and acting like a normal person. He said sarcastically:

"Who is this? Who is it? Oh, by the way, the Jingzhou Mu who turned from darkness to light, what is his name?"

 “Liu Xiu.” Yuan Yi reminded in a low voice.

 “Ah, yes, it’s Liu Xiu.”

Yuan Shu deliberately showed a look of surprise and sneered: "Brother Liu Xiu, you asked so many of our princes to wait for you alone, and yet you sat down without saying a word after you arrived. Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

 Still came. Liu Xiu secretly sighed in his heart. He thought it would be Qin Hao who made things difficult for him, but he didn't expect it would be Yuan Shu, who has no grievances and no hatred.

Liu Xiu didn't want to get entangled with Yuan Shu, nor did he want the princes' attention to be on him, so he decisively picked up a glass of strong wine and said with a smile: "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. Liu will punish himself with three drinks. Quan should be I apologize to you all.”

 Seeing Liu Xiu surrendering so easily, Yuan Shu thought Liu Xiu was weak and could be bullied, so he immediately stopped Liu Xiu who was about to drink, and said with a smile:

"Three cups are not enough. There are thirty-five princes here. At least one hundred and five cups are enough to make amends."

The major princes also had the mentality of watching a show, and when they heard what Yuan Shu said, they all agreed.

“Yes, at least drink one hundred and five cups, otherwise you will look down on us.”

 “Yes, drink, drink quickly...”

When Liu Yu, Liu Yao and other princes saw this, they all raised their brows. Although they were a little dissatisfied with Yuan Shu's aggressiveness, they all had a tacit understanding and did not stop him.

Seeing this, Qin Hao shook his head helplessly. Yuan Shu still likes to offend people as always. Liu Xiu is not someone who is easy to bully. Sooner or later, he will regret it!

Liu Xiu looked at Yuan Shu with a calm expression. Although he was already furious in his heart, he did not show it at all.

 Liu Xiu could tolerate Yuan Shu's deliberate attempts to make things difficult for his subjects, but his generals could not.

Gai Yan stood in front of Liu Xiu and said in a deep voice: "Marquis Yu, don't go too far. The reason why my lord is late is not because..."

 “Gaiyan, step back.”

  “Lord.”

Gai Yan looked at Liu Xiu in disbelief, but Liu Xiu gave him a reassuring look, smiled lightly and said, "It's okay."

Gai Yan glared at Yuan Shu unwillingly, and then stood behind Liu Xiu again.

Yuan Shu's eyes were full of disdain. He was just a general under Liu Xiu, but he dared to be rude to his own princes. He was looking for death.

Liu Xiu stood up at this time, bowed to all the princes, lowered his head and said solemnly: "Liu sincerely apologizes, it's just one hundred and five glasses of wine, I drank it."

Liu Xiu walked up to Yuan Shu and said with a faint smile: "Marquis Yu, please forgive me."

After saying that, Liu Xiu didn’t care what Yuan Shu’s reaction was, and after drinking three cups in a row, he immediately went to the next prince.

“Lord Kong Rong, please forgive me.” “Lord Tao Qian, please forgive me.”

 “Lord Liu Yao, please forgive me.”

 …

Yuan Shu couldn't help but feel a flash of embarrassment in his eyes when he saw this. Although he was deliberately making things difficult for Liu Xiu, he was ready to let him go as long as Liu Xiu softened. Who knew that Liu Xiu actually did this? This actually made him feel a little proud. I can't forgive you anymore.

"He must have done it on purpose." Yuan Shu gritted his teeth in his heart.

 Liu Xiu's company was still going on, but the eyes of the princes looking at Liu Xiu were completely different.

All the princes knew that it was not Liu Xiu's fault that he was late, but Liu Xiu didn't even explain, and took the initiative to stop the fault that was not his own. Such a person is so big-hearted.

When it was Liu Yu's turn, Liu Yu only accepted a glass of fine wine from Liu Xiu, and said a lot of good things to Liu Xiu in a caring tone.

As the oldest person present, Liu Yu’s words were still very useful. Most of the princes’ impressions of Liu Xiu also changed a lot. After Liu Yu, all the princes only let Liu Xiu drink.

Even so, Liu Xiu still drank fifty or sixty glasses of wine, but his face was just red and he had no intention of getting drunk.

Just when Liu Xiu was about to return to his seat, Yuan Shu blocked his way again.

Liu Xiu suppressed his drunkenness and said with a faint smile: "Why is Marquis Yu dissatisfied with me?"

A trace of anger flashed in Yuan Shu's eyes, and he said coldly: "Liu Xiu, your Jingzhou Mu Nai was granted by Dong Zhuo, so it cannot be counted. You are not even a prince, so you are not qualified to be on the same level as me."

 After hearing what Yuan Shu said, Qin Hao immediately discovered the loopholes in it.

 “This pig head really dares to say anything.”

Qin Hao glanced at Liu Xiu and thought, "He should be able to find it, right?"

As expected, Liu Xiu thought for a while, then chuckled and said: "Although Liu's official position was granted by the Dong thief, the edict is stamped with His Majesty's seal. Why is it not counted?"

Liu Xiu glanced at the princes not far away, a smile flashed in his eyes, and said: "If I remember correctly, Lord Han Fu, Lord Yuan Shao, and... all accepted the canonization of Dong Thief from the mouth of Marquis Yu, why? They can participate in the alliance, but I, Liu Xiu, can't count?"

 “Well, uh, this is because...”

Under the sharp gazes behind him, Yuan Shu was already sweating on his forehead. At this time, he finally realized that the angry words he just casually offended a large number of people. You must know that those who were present to accept Dong Zhuo's canonization There are many princes.

At this time, Yuan Shu finally realized how scary Liu Xiu was. Even though this guy was smiling and had a good temper, his words were no less sharp than Qin Hao's. He was just a smiling tiger.

"He must have done it on purpose." Yuan Shu thought through gritted teeth.

Seeing that Yuan Shu was hesitating and unable to say a word, Liu Xiu smiled and then walked around Yuan Shu and walked slowly back to his seat.

But what Liu Xiu didn't know was that his habitual fake smile turned into a mockery in Yuan Shu's eyes, which also made Yuan Shu completely disregard his shame.

“You’ve been trying to sow discord among the princes since you arrived. You must be a spy sent by Dong Zhuo to infiltrate the coalition…”

Yuan Shu spoke more and more enthusiastically, as if he could give Liu Xiu the death penalty, but he did not notice the impatience in the eyes of other princes. Apparently they had had enough of this farce.

Unlucky enough, I was bitten by a cryptid, and the bite was on my face. I was depressed for a whole day. I hope there won’t be any scars.
