Chapter 508: Xi Zhicai's Invitation

"Dong Zhuo is dead! Thief Dong is dead!"

Standing in his study, Li Ru could hear the louder and louder celebrations outside. He thought it was Xi Zhicai's tricks, but the news sent by the shadow was calm and he fell into anxiety, and his anxiety continued to become anxious.

In the end, Li Ru was defeated by one day's anxiety. It wasn't because Li Ru lacked patience. It was because Lu Bu and Wang Yun got mixed up. Iron cavalry and the elite Luoyang Forbidden Army, after this battle, Dong Zhuo's army will be ten to seven or eight.

How can such a heavy loss deter Han Sui and Ma Teng in Xiliang, how can it deter the Liu (Bei) Yuan (Shu) alliance that is about to move?
In order to attack Sanfu, Liu Bei specially sent envoys to Nanyang, and used a large amount of armor and materials to lure Zhang Xun, a general under the Yuan Shu faction, to Danxi, as if he wanted to attack Wuguan. For this reason, Li Ru also specially ordered Duan Yan to strengthen his military equipment In case Zhang Xun made a surprise attack.

"Someone wants to see him."

Li Ru sighed dejectedly looking at the increasingly dark sky outside.

Although there was no one in the room, Li Ru knew that someone must be watching everything about him, and someone would definitely notify Xi Zhicai.

Sure enough, not long after, Xi Zhicai walked in with a red face: "How is it? Li Shangshu has made up his mind?"

Li Ru didn't answer but asked instead, "Is Prime Minister Dong dead?"

Xi Zhicai nodded: "Beheaded by Lu Bu himself, Tian Jing died together with hundreds of Feixiong troops, Dong Huang fled in a hurry, the Xiliang army was completely suppressed by the Luoyang forbidden army, Li Meng and Wang Fang surrendered, Hu Zhen , Yang Ding stay behind closed doors, brother Wenyou is the only one left in the Xiliang sect."

Li Ru sighed sadly: "I didn't expect that although Tian Jing is pedantic, he is still a loyal gentleman at the critical moment."

Xi Zhicai curled his lips, of course he couldn't tell Li Ru that Tian Jing was Wang Yun's secret game, otherwise Dong Zhuo would have fallen into the gentle village so quickly, knowing nothing about the outside world's attempt to assassinate him, the reason why Tian Jing chose to die was because Because of his own reputation, and the fact that Lu Bu's strength has been greatly reduced, if Lu Bu really controls the Flying Bear Army, then who can guarantee that Lu Bu will not be the next Dong Zhuo.

It has to be said that most of the Confucian scholars in the Han Dynasty had the spirit of sacrificing their lives for righteousness, unlike the Confucian scholars who sold everything that could be sold for the benefit of the family and their own lives.

"The Xiliang army is about to fall apart, how can this useless person kill His Majesty? Liu Hou may have miscalculated!"

Li Ru quickly accepted the fact that Dong Zhuo was dead. Once he accepted the reality, Li Ru quickly recovered his IQ as the top counselor of the Three Kingdoms.

Xi Zhicai also recovered from Tian Jingshe's generosity, and said: "Although Feixiong's army collapsed, Huangfusong personally led the army in Meiwu to attack, so there will be no big troubles, but Hongnong has Niu Fu, Xu Rong Feng Yi has more than ten thousand elites from Li Jue, Guo Si, and Zhang Ji, and Wuguan has Duan Yan, plus the Qiang random soldiers in the Sanfu. As long as one person raises his arms and shouts, how can this fragile Chang'an court Can you resist it?"

Li Ru looked at Xi Zhicai and said suddenly: "So, Liu Hou has made up his mind to become Emperor Guangwu."

Once the emperor dies, the Liu clan will definitely be elected by various princes, and Liu Yan of Yizhou may be the first to proclaim himself emperor, so that Liu Bei will also have a chance to proclaim himself emperor.

Xi Zhicai smiled slightly: "Brother Wenyou, as counselors, we naturally have to clear all obstacles with the lord, even if the lord doesn't have this heart now, it's hard to guarantee that he won't in the future?"

Li Ru looked at Xi Zhicai for a long time, then Fang sighed and said, "Mr. Liu Houyou is like the great ancestor who got Chen Ping! To be honest, I am very jealous that Mr. Liuhou has to meet such a master as Liuhou."

Xi Zhicai said: "Brother Wenyou, a good bird chooses a tree to live in, and a good minister chooses a master to serve. You still have a chance to choose."

Li Ru's body was shocked, and there is still a chance to choose?Is there any more?The world knows that I am Dong Zhuo's mastermind, whoever takes me in is the enemy of the world, how can Liu Bei become the enemy of the world because of himself?
Li Ru's sarcasm fell into the eyes of Xi Zhicai, and Xi Zhicai secretly said: It seems that there is something to be said for surrendering Li Ru.

Xi Zhicai knew that his health was getting worse and worse, plus Liu Bei's suspicion of him, presumably the intelligence organization would be handed over to another person, Xu Shu was the first candidate Liu Bei sent, but Xu Shu was an upright person , can't adapt to the darkness of this intelligence organization at all, but Li Ru is a suitable candidate.A person who dared to kill even the emperor, what kind of darkness could he not accept?
Xi Zhicai couldn't suppress this idea anymore, but he also knew that it would be difficult for someone like Li Ru to persuade him to join Liu Bei again, but it was because of the difficulty that he felt conquered.

"Why not? Brother Wenyou, you see that although the reputation of a certain person is not obvious, how can it be said that the things that a certain person has done are small?"

People like Li Ru are not impressable by fame and wealth. On the contrary, it is the most important thing to let them display their talents. Dong Zhuo put Li Ru in the position of Shang Shuling to review the government affairs. The fact that Wang Yun and others are playing with each other is enough to prove that Li Ru is not suitable for handling government affairs.

Xi Zhicai's temptation made Li Ru's heart skip a beat, but he was indeed more interested in intelligence warfare. Shadow is a role model, but it's a pity that he made Liu Bei's wedding dress.

"Mr. Xi, let's talk about your plan! You can't let someone figure out a way to get out of the city, and then go back to Chang'an, kill Your Majesty!"

Li Ruqiang pressed the eagerness in his heart and said.

Xi Zhicai said: "Naturally, brother Wenyou, your Feixiong army is waiting for your call, and the shadow will obey your orders. You will leave the city with Wu Kuang's military order. Then someone will take brother Wenyou to See Li Jue and Guo Si, and the rest will be up to Brother Wen You."

"Why not Niu Fu?"

Although Dong Zhuo died, Li Ru still wanted to find his heir, and his heir would naturally have a relationship with Dong Zhuo by blood or marriage.

Xi Zhicai sneered: "Niu Fu, the wine bag and rice bag! Brother Wen You will end up with Niu Fu after he arrives at Feng Yi, so I will leave it at that. I hope Brother Wen You will carefully consider my suggestion. Liu Hou wants to be a Guangwu. My heart will never tolerate Brother Woyou, that's all I can say."

"Forgive me for not sending you far away."

Li Ru cupped his fists and said.

Li Ru watched Xi Zhicai leave, and Fei Xiongjun came out of the wing room one by one, all cursing, so it can be seen that they still don't know what happened?

Li Ru shouted: "Where is Han De?"

"Someone is here."

"Assemble the troops immediately and prepare to go out of the city with XX."

"Here!"

After Li Ru changed his clothes, he saw the Flying Bear Army led by Han De gain some confidence, took the torch from Han De's hand and threw it into the house, and the kerosene in the house was coaxed.

Han De was puzzled and asked: "Sir, this is?"

"The lord is dead, we have to flee."

Li Ru's words made Han De dumbfounded, but he was Li Ru's personal guard, and he was used to obeying his words, even though he was confused, he still did what Li Ru said.

As soon as Li Ru left, Li Su led people to kill him. Li Su looked at the burning Li Ru mansion and was annoyed: "Hurry up, it's still a step too late. Come, tell the gates of Chang'an, and you must stop them!" Li Ru, otherwise Chang'an will be in danger!"
