Chapter 110: Dong Zhuo: Liu Bei is a sincere person! Did I give too much?
Lu Bu on the side was anxious; he had been eyeing the position of Inspector of Bingzhou for a long time.
"Foster father, I will go over right now and kill that scoundrel Liu Bei!"
Dong Zhuo stroked his beard.
"Fengxian, do not panic; I have my own plans."
"Buying horse bones with a thousand gold pieces? That makes sense. Forget it, it's just an Inspector of Bingzhou; give it to him. By the way, it will anger that old brute Lu Zhi!"
Lu Bu was depressed. Could he not be that horse bone?!
Jia Xu actually had the answer in his heart long ago.
He received the order and went to Liu Bei's place again.
Liu Bei readily agreed!
Afterward, Liu Bei followed Jia Xu to Dong Zhuo's residence, drinking and exchanging cups with Dong Zhuo, drinking Dong Zhuo under the table!
Dong Zhuo, however, felt that this Liu Bei was quite sincere; wine quality is character quality, after all!
At the court meeting the next day, the ministers were in an uproar.
Dong Zhuo actually recommended Liu Bei to be the Inspector of Bingzhou!
Dong Zhuo listed Liu Bei's merits.
"Your Majesty, Liu Bei was actually oppressed by the Ten Regular Attendants; such a meritorious official cannot be buried."
The Emperor, who was the former Prince of Chen Liu, had an excellent impression of Liu Bei.
"What the Excellency says is very true. Liu Xuande is a heavy minister of our Great Han; he is loyal, righteous, and sincere. We cannot let an honest man suffer losses. Why not enfeoff him as a Marquis?"
The ministers' mouths twitched and their eyelids jumped. This Liu Bei had abandoned Lu Zhi and switched to the upper-level route!
With the Emperor and Dong Zhuo both appreciating Liu Bei, wouldn't he soar to the sky?!
Yuan Kui looked at Dong Zhuo and hurriedly persuaded him,
"Your Majesty, Liu Bei is still young; it won't be too late to enfeoff him after he renders more merit."
Liu Xie was very regretful.
"Alright then, let it be according to the Grand Tutor's words."
Minister Wang Yun and Cao Cao exchanged glances; neither of them expected that the previously loyal and righteous Liu Bei was also a turncoat!
Dong Zhuo said loudly, ===== CHAPTER 111 =====
