Chapter 806 Stab and Backstab

And under the repeated questioning by Chen Gong and Chen Qun, Chen Zhong also truthfully told the process of stealing the jade belt and escaping from Yuzhou.

Chen Gong was a little suspicious about this, but Chen Qun believed that it was a blessing from God, which prevented Li Ji from realizing the secret hidden in the jade belt at the first time, giving Chen Zhong the opportunity to succeed.

Chen Zhong also took this opportunity to shed tears and complain, stating the sacrifices of the Chen and Deng families of Yingchuan.

Even if the Chen and Deng families who remained in Yuzhou and had no time to escape were not all killed by Li Ji, there would no longer be a place for the Chen and Deng families to stand in Yuzhou in the future.

In this regard, Lu Bu was undoubtedly not a stingy person. He promised to double the land to make up for the losses of Chen and Deng in Yuzhou, and even gave Chen Zhong a high position as one of the Nine Ministers on the spot.

This made Chen Zhong very grateful to Lu Bu, and he quickly handed the jade belt to Lu Bu.

Stroking the jade belt in his hand, Lu Bu searched carefully and soon found the gap that exposed the interlayer.

Lu Bu stretched out his hand, pulled out the piece of cloth hidden inside and spread it out in front of him. The line of bloody words came into Lu Bu's eyes.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Lu Bu laughed out of anger, a feeling of betrayal arose spontaneously, followed by a rage that soared to the sky.

In the past, only Lu Bu stabbed his adoptive father in the back, but Lu Bu never expected that he would be stabbed in the back in a familiar way when he became his father-in-law.

Just because Lu Bu likes to backstab others doesn't mean he likes to be backstabbed.

On the contrary, Lu Bu hated betrayal especially, and the secret decree in his hand was undoubtedly a naked betrayal in his eyes.

The next moment, Lu Bu turned around and picked up the Fang Tian Hua Ji on the weapon rack...

This scene undoubtedly scared everyone including Chen Gong, Chen Qun and Zhang Xiu. It was as if they were about to go to the emperor with their Fang Tian Hua Ji to ask for punishment.

"General, you can't do that!"

"Don't be impulsive..."

"This matter may be caused by some treacherous person, it is not the emperor's original intention."

Suddenly, the whole general's mansion was in chaos. All the generals and counselors rushed forward to stop Lu Bu, fearing that Lu Bu would do something to kill the king in a moment of impulse.

Although being the emperor of the Han Dynasty after Emperor Guangwu's restoration was a high-risk job, with most emperors dying suddenly for unknown reasons or being poisoned as recorded in history, there has never been anyone who killed an emperor with his own hands.

Even though Dong Zhuo was notorious, he poisoned Liu Bian after deposing him. He did not break into the palace with a knife and kill the emperor.

Even though the Han Dynasty is now in name only, the hearts of the people in the world are still with it. Even a warrior like Zhang Xiu knows that if Lu Bu kills the emperor with his own hands, it will not be as simple as cutting off his own arm, but simply cutting himself off from the world.

Chen Zhong, who had just arrived, looked at the chaotic scene in front of him and stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do.

Fortunately, there were not only scholars such as Chen Gong and Chen Qun present, but also military generals including Zhang Xiu, Gao Shun, and Wei Xu, who were able to calm down the furious Lu Bu.

But Chen Zhong, who witnessed this scene, was stunned for a long time before he felt a trace of regret.

Under the rules set by Guo Shihou, the noble families in Yuzhou are naturally having a hard time living right now, but following Lu Bu, who seems to be ready to commit murder against the emperor in a rage, it seems that the Chen family of Yingchuan... is in imminent danger.

Despite everyone's strong dissuasion, Lu Bu, who reluctantly put down his Fang Tian Hua Ji, still broke into the palace with the Yidaizhao, and threw the jade belt and the blood letter in front of Liu Xie, shocking Liu Xie so much that his face turned pale and his legs trembled.

"To prevent Your Majesty from being instigated by traitors and causing chaos in the world, Your Majesty is requested to study peacefully in Zhangde Hall from now on. Once this general has pacified the world, Your Majesty will be invited to rule the country."

With a murderous look on his face, Lu Bu said this and left.

Although it was said that he was studying, in reality, Liu Xie was undoubtedly completely imprisoned in the Zhangde Hall.

Chen Gong and Chen Qun, who were accompanying Lu Bu, originally disliked each other, but at this moment they couldn't help but sigh in unison. However, the two Chens also knew that this was undoubtedly the best outcome at the moment.

Imprisoning the emperor was undoubtedly a big deal, but it was not regicide after all. In addition, Lu Bu was also a relative of the emperor. Given the unique political structure of the Han Dynasty, it did not seem so surprising.

After all, since the restoration of Emperor Guangwu, the Han Dynasty had fallen into a political structure in which eunuchs and foreign relatives took turns in power, so it was not surprising that the emperor was temporarily imprisoned in the Zhangde Hall by his foreign relatives.

"Once the general's anger has subsided, please join me in persuading the general..."

Chen Gong spoke to Chen Qun in a low voice.

This time Chen Qun did not refuse, but nodded and agreed.

The matter of "Yidai Zhao" seemed to have been settled, and the two Chens also deliberately stopped mentioning the emperor in order to wait for the right opportunity to persuade Lu Bu.

Emperor Liu Xie seemed to have been forgotten and was imprisoned in Zhangde Hall all day long, living in constant fear.

Liu Xie, who didn't even have a single confidant, naturally couldn't guess what Lu Bu's intentions were.

Trapped in it, Liu Xie couldn't help but think of his brother Liu Bian.

Before Liu Bian was poisoned to death, he was imprisoned in a palace like this.

Whenever Liu Xie thought of Liu Bian's end, he became more frightened and more angry.

But Liu Xie, trapped in the palace, could do nothing.

Apart from the eunuchs sent by Lu Lingqi to seal off the Zhangde Hall, Liu Xie could not contact anyone else, and he didn't even know how much time had passed in the outside world.

until...

"Crench!"

The sudden sound of a door opening startled Liu Xie, who was already disheveled and in a disheveled state in the Zhangde Hall.

This noise, in addition to the regular daily delivery of meals, frightened Liu Xie so much that he trembled all over. He thought his time was up and shouted in panic.

"Who?"

The next moment, the door of Zhangde Hall was pushed open a crack, and a figure came in.

It was now late at night and the Zhangde Hall was dim. With the faint moonlight outside the hall, Liu Xie could only barely make out that it was a eunuch.

The eunuch entered the Zhangde Hall, followed the noise and found where Liu Xie was. He quickly walked to three steps away from Liu Xie, fell to the ground, and cried bitterly.

"Your Majesty has suffered."

Liu Yue calmed down and asked, "Who are you?"

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten me? I am Zheng Bao."

There was a hint of confusion in Liu Xie's eyes, but he really couldn't remember where Zheng Bao was.

Not to mention that Liu Xie has been a puppet since he ascended the throne and has no confidants at all.

More importantly, Lü Bu purged the palace many times, killing all the middle-aged and elderly eunuchs in the palace, leaving only some young eunuchs with clean backgrounds and re-employing a group of eunuchs. (End of this chapter)
