Chapter 532: Wang Yun dies, Chen Gong's plot (2nd update!)
"It seems I can only write to Boyuan later and ask for his advice!"
Lu Bu thought to himself.
In any case, he was completely at a loss at this moment.
"Xiu-xiu-xiu!"
Just then, many sounds of crossbow bolts breaking through the air rang out.
Lu Bu sensed a little danger, looked up, and saw Li Ru directing a group of death-sworn soldiers holding bows and crossbows to shoot at him.
"Hmph!"
Lu Bu let out a cold snort, urged his Gang Qi, and danced the Halberd of the Heavenly Void in his hand, easily sweeping away the incoming crossbow bolts.
"Kill!!"
Then, with a violent roar, he rode his horse and killed toward Li Ru and the others.
"Ka-ka-ka!!"
These people, including Li Ru, had at most the cultivation of the Anjin stage; how could they be Lu Bu's opponents?
After just one round of charging, they were all solved by Lu Bu.
Afterward, Lu Bu summoned the ministers and officials in the city and informed them of the news that the Son of Heaven had been killed by Li Ru.
"What?"
For a time, these ministers and officials only felt the world go dark, completely unable to accept this news.
But what could they do if they couldn't accept it?
The established fact was already before their eyes, and it was no longer up to them.
For a time, these ministers and officials had different expressions.
"His Majesty has no heirs. Who should be allowed to inherit the throne now?"
"We can only choose one from the Han clan relatives!"
"Now the world is in chaos, kings are rising together, and there are hundreds of thousands of Xiliang troops in Guanzhong eyeing us covetously. When they know the news of Dong Zhuo's death, they will probably kill us at any time. Therefore, we cannot stay in Changancheng or Guanzhong. We must leave here."
"Exactly! Therefore, we cannot randomly choose a clan relative to inherit the throne! It is best to choose one from the existing Liu kings."
"Then there is only King of Shu Liu Zhang, King of Yan Liu Yu, and King of Wu Liu Biao. I favor Liu Biao."
"Heh! Liu Biao cannot even control Yangzhou, and there is a powerful warlord like Su Xuan next to him, and he is even constantly threatened by Sun Ce. I don't think he is a suitable candidate. I choose Liu Zhang! King of Shu Liu Zhang occupies Yizhou, the land of abundance, and masters the timing and geography. He is the most suitable candidate. Back then, Emperor Gao Zu of Han, Liu Bang, also started from Shu."
"Heh! You probably don't know that Liu Zhang is mediocre in talent? This person is simply not suitable. I think King of Yan Liu Yu has the strongest ability and character. I choose Liu Yu."
"I also choose Liu Yu!"
"I choose Liu Biao!"
"I choose Liu Zhang!"
"..."
For a time, these ministers and officials were divided into three factions, each with their own choices, and no one could convince anyone else. ===== CHAPTER 534 =====
