Conquer all worlds starting from the mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 28 Poison Master Li Ru



As the old saying goes, wine is a medicine that penetrates the intestines, sex is a bone scraper, wealth is a tiger descending from the mountain, and anger is a seedling causing trouble.

And Dong Zhuo had all four. Luoyang was too prosperous, and the life of the upper-class nobles in the decadent empire was too luxurious. How could Dong Zhuo, a reckless man who started out as a soldier, stand in this colorful world.

Under the temptation of wine, sex and wealth, Dong Zhuo quickly degenerated from the heroic overlord of Xiliang into a fat man greedy for pleasure.

Li Ru was disappointed, but somewhat helpless.

Sitting on the strategic location of Hangu Pass in Western Qin, as long as Xiliang's basic base is stabilized, even if there are people in the world who can defeat them, no one can defeat them head-on.

Li Ru had already planned that if things couldn't be done, he would directly move the capital, leave Luoyang to the Kwantung Allied Forces, divide it directly, and then they would take everything with them to Chang'an.

When Dong Zhuo began to degenerate, Li Ru inevitably began to become conservative. He and Dong Zhuo both prospered and suffered losses. Since Dong Zhuo did not want to compete for the world, then forget it.

He is no longer young, and his former ambitions have been wiped out by reality. What he once thought of as a poor family and a high-ranking official now seems ridiculous.

The Yuan family, the Fourth Generation and the Third Duke, had such a great reputation, but if Grand Tutor Yuan Huai said no, they would be beheaded. Not only Yuan Huai, but also more than a thousand Yuan family members in Luoyang were beheaded.

Although the Yuan family was not uprooted and the Yuan family in Runan still existed, at least Yuan Huai, the master, had his head actually chopped off.

Aristocratic family? Shit family! As long as the fist in your hand is big enough, you have to curl up if it's a dragon, or lie down if it's a tiger.

At least now Luoyang is headed by Dong Zhuo.

He really couldn't overthrow the family because dragon slayers would eventually become evil dragons.

Even if these current aristocratic families are overthrown, won't his descendants also become aristocratic families in the future?

This seemed to be an unsolvable problem, and Li Ru fell into complete confusion.

The disillusionment of his ideals and Dong Zhuo's decadence made Li Ru become corrupt. He no longer thought about how to help Dong Zhuo conquer the world, but planned to help Dong Zhuo become a local emperor behind closed doors.

After Jiu killed Hongnong King Liu Bian, Li Ru's disdain for the family lineage and imperial power reached its peak.

Emperor? What a joke, King Hongnong was destined to be emperor, so he was deposed and then killed by him.

Anyway, sitting on the advantage of Hangu Pass in the Western Qin Dynasty, just sit back and watch the clouds rise and fall, and let the princes of Guandong go to pieces. Anyway, they are in an invincible position.

With this mentality, Li Ru began to divide the Guandong princes and give officials to each prince in the name of the imperial court. Naturally, the first person to bear the responsibility was Yuan Shao. He directly changed the title of Yuan Shao to Jizhou Mu, making Yuan Shao inevitably have interests with Han Fu. conflict.

Although Han Fu is a disciple and former official of the Yuan family, under the actual power, how much is such a thing like a disciple and former official worth? The two sides are bound to have conflicts.

This was also Li Ru's attempt to sow discord between Yuan Shao and Han Fu after he learned that Ju Shou was the coach, or in other words, he directly exposed the conflict in front of Han Fu.

Followed by other princes, Li Ru based on the intelligence, divided them into places where they conflicted with others.

The world is destined to be in chaos, and the princes will inevitably continue to war like the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and a justifiable reward will naturally make them think like dogs.

Even if they know that this is Li Ru's fault, the beneficiaries will not care about this. They will definitely scold the national traitor Dong Zhuo and then fully accept Dong Zhuo's reward. After all, Li Ru issued the reward in the name of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty.

But this is just a simple alienation strategy. These Kanto princes will at least have to win before they put their conflicts on the table.

Li Ru didn't care. Anyway, the tung oil and fire starters arranged in Luoyang were almost in place. As long as Luoyang's treasures, money, and population were taken away, then Hulao Pass was abandoned, and the Kwantung princes were introduced to Luoyang. The fire burned them half to pieces.

As for whether the coalition forces would pursue them later, Li Ru was reassured. For this purpose, he used the jade seal and placed it directly in Luoyang, which completely ignited the conflict between the Guandong princes. Even if they wanted to unite, it would be a daydream.

Thinking of this, Li Ru suddenly had a new idea. Since he had already made people angry, he might as well do something more extreme, dig up the emperor's tomb and tear up the last fig leaf of the Han Dynasty.

After thinking about it, Li Ru decided to leave this matter to Lu Bu, which could be regarded as completely tying Lu Bu to their Xiliang chariot, and maybe they could use Lu Bu to occupy Bingzhou.

Although they no longer have the ambition to be enterprising, Li Ru still knows very well that strength is the basis for them to do whatever they want, and Bingzhou, which is as famous as Liangzhou, is obviously a good place to recruit soldiers.

"what?"

Just when Li Ru was handling government affairs and planning to gradually move to Luoyang, he suddenly discovered something novel in the memorial.

"Qingzhou Yellow Turban?" Li Ru looked at the memorial in his hand with a strange expression.

"Dong Min submitted it?" After asking someone, Li Ru found the source of the memorial. The envoy from Qingzhou spent a lot of money to ask Dong Zhuo's brother Dong Min to submit the memorial.

He didn't wonder how this thing came about. As long as you use money to clear the way, you can do anything in Luoyang, and it's just a matter of submitting a memorial. It's no problem at all.

After thinking about it, Li Ru curled up into a sneer. The enemy of his enemy is his friend.

Anyway, they have retreated to Hangu Pass. The matter of Qingzhou will be left to Kong Rong, Yuan Shao, and Tao Qian to deal with.

Li Ru directly waved his hand and gave Mu Yi the title of Mu Yi of Qingzhou.

It is too stingy to ask for the governor of Donglai County. It is too stingy to ask for the shepherd of Qingzhou. Anyway, dogs bite dogs. Qingzhou and Jizhou are adjacent to each other. I hope Yuan Shao will like his gift.

Moreover, the ability of the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou to deliver things to him was a manifestation of his ability. He was very curious about what kind of trouble this remnant of the Yellow Turban named Mu Yi could make.

Li Ru took a blank imperial edict and filled in some things at will, then stamped it with a jade seal, and randomly found a clerk to ask him to complete the documents and other things according to the procedure.

Li Ru is really in control now, especially when Dong Zhuo fails, he is the real person in power, and he can hold the jade seal in his hand and play with it at will.

To be honest, Li Ru actually still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, hoping that one of Dong Zhuo's descendants would emerge as a hero who would survive the sixth generation, so he arranged some casual chess pieces.

In his eyes, Mu Yi was like this. In Li Ru's eyes, Mu Yi was no different from the Black Mountain Army and the Baibo Army, but he was smarter and more courageous.

Li Ru has never looked down upon the Yellow Turbans, because the Yellow Turbans defeated the Xiliang cavalry head-on, and because of Zhang Jiao, Dong Zhuo was achieved.

Without Zhang Jiao to start the Yellow Turban Rebellion, how could Dong Zhuo have supreme power? Since Mu Yi has shown his ability, Li Ru doesn't mind helping Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others.
