Chapter 867

"I do not know what important matter the General has for summoning us here?"

Princess Wannian and Liu Bian had long been scared half to death, their faces pale, not daring to speak.

In the end, it was the Empress Dowager who spoke.

Lü Bu smiled: "I am Lü Fengxian of Bingzhou, originally a subject of the Great Han. However, I have now received the teachings of a Daoist Lord from the upper realm and have cultivated an immortal, deathless body. Empress Dowager, if you all comply with the mandate of Heaven,"

"and abdicate to me, I can also grant you a grand fortune."

"Immortal and deathless?"

"Abdicate?"

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager frowned.

"Does General Lü disregard the grace and righteousness between ruler and subject?" the Empress Dowager asked.

Lü Bu sneered: "The Son of Heaven is whoever has the strongest troops and the sturdiest horses. Empress Dowager, in the current situation, why speak of the grace and righteousness between ruler and subject!"

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager fell silent.

Although the affairs of the world were generally like this, there was no need to be so direct.

"... Then I do not know what this fortune General Lü speaks of is?" The Empress Dowager was silent for a few breaths before asking again.

Lü Bu bowed toward the sky and said: "The Daoist Lord I met has vast supernatural powers and resides in the Great Luo Heaven; he is the supreme existence of a world. If the Empress Dowager lets the Emperor abdicate to me, I"

"can send Princess Wannian to the Great Luo Heaven to be a concubine for the Daoist Lord. From then on, the Liu family will have established a connection with the Daoist Lord. Even for Liu Bian and the Empress Dowager, you will have the opportunity to be immortal and deathless. Isn't that wonderful?"

"Send Wannian over?" The Empress Dowager pondered. "Is this true?"

"Would I, Lü, lie to you?" Lü Bu snorted coldly.

"General Lü, do not be angry; I was only feeling some concern," the Empress Dowager said hurriedly. "It is just that even if I let Bian'er abdicate to you, I fear the great clans of the world will not acknowledge it."

Lü Bu sneered: "I only need a title. If they don't acknowledge it, are the soldiers under my command just eating for free?"

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager fell silent again, looking at Liu Bian and Wannian, and asked: "Bian'er, Wannian, what do you think?"

Liu Bian, knowing that his life was not in danger, finally calmed down.

"I have no objections; I only hope General Lü can preserve the Liu clan and not let them suffer from the blade."

Princess Wannian also bowed gently: "Wannian shares this thought."

Lü Bu laughed heartily: "The three of you can rest assured. Since Princess Wannian is prepared to go to the Great Luo Heaven, then we are on the same side. When the Princess arrives at the Great Luo Heaven, please put in a good word for me with the Daoist Lord. I, Lü, thank you in advance."

"The three of you, stay in the imperial palace for now, until I persuade a few others to go to the Great Luo Heaven together."

Having said this, Lü Bu arranged for palace maids and eunuchs to serve them well, while he himself strode away.

"Still need to persuade a few others to go to the Great Luo Heaven?" The Empress Dowager pondered. "Looking at it now, this Great Luo Heaven is very likely real. Wannian, if you really arrive at the Great Luo Heaven, you must be careful."

"Do not let your princess temper get the better of you and bring disaster upon yourself." ===== CHAPTER 868 =====

"How many more people must be persuaded to go to the Great Luo Heaven?" The Empress Dowager pondered, "It seems now that this Great Luo Heaven is very likely real. Wannian, if you truly reach the Great Luo Heaven, you must be careful."

"Do not act with the temper of a princess, or you will bring disaster upon yourself."
