Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 212 Liu Yu Returns to the City
Li Ru not only hated Liu Yu for making him embarrassing in public, but also because Liu Yu's appearance threatened his position as the chief think tank and confidant.

In fact, except for Niu Fu, Li Ru would regard everyone as competitors. He felt that it was enough for Dong Zhuo to have only one confidant around him.

So in the depths of Li Ru's heart, he has been hiding the idea of ​​killing Liu Yu, but it's just that Liu Yu has been in the limelight recently and the trust of Dong Zhuo, the grand master, made Li Ru dare not take any action.

Until the appearance of this report letter, Li Ru saw an excellent opportunity to get rid of Liu Yu.

Li Ru knew that to deal with someone like Liu Yu, he had to be shot to death, and he must not leave the opponent a chance to fight back.

And just a report letter may not be enough, he must find a valid evidence for the crimes written in the letter, or a reasonable statement, only in this way can Dong Zhuo believe that these crimes were really committed by Liu Yu.

"When Guo Bang's army was defeated, someone saw Liu Yu go to Yiyang County to find medicine. When the southwest rebels captured Lu County, Liu Yu said that he was refining medicine in Niujia Village, but no one could prove it. The Taishi two days ago I sent people to Niujia Village to look for Liu Yu, but the people there said that Liu Yu went out to find new medicinal materials, and at that time, the Southeast Rebellion broke out..."

"...every time Liu Yu 'disappears', there will be urgent reports and enemy news! This is too coincidental." Li Ru did not directly pour dirty water on Liu Yu, but disappeared Liu Yu Several points in time are combined with the recent enemy situation.

Dong Zhuo was suspicious at first, but after hearing Li Ru's analysis and looking at the report letter in his hand, his expression became more and more ferocious.

Dong Zhuo shouted furiously: "Come here, send me an order to the four gates. Once Liu Yu is found to return to the city, he will be captured immediately, and he will be imprisoned and await trial!"

Although there is still no clear evidence for the series of crimes against Liu Yu, Dong Zhuo can't tolerate any of them.

Seeing Dong Zhuo getting angry, Li Ru secretly smiled, knowing that he had successfully persuaded Dong Zhuo.

And Li Ru, who is Ting Wei, happened to be in charge of the prisons in the whole city. As long as Liu Yu was caught, life or death would depend on his words.

But just when Dong Zhuo was about to draw up an order, Dong Bai, the princess of Weiyang, suddenly ran out from behind the screen.

In the past two days, Liu Yu's delay in returning Dong Bai was a little worried, so whenever grandpa went to the main hall to discuss matters, she would run behind the screen to see if Liu Yu had returned.

Unexpectedly, behind the screen today, he heard someone speaking ill of Liu Yu. Dong Bai had a crush on Liu Yu for a long time in his heart, how could he allow others to frame his sweetheart!

As soon as Dong Bai appeared, he pointed at Li Ru's nose and yelled, "You sinister villain knows to speak ill of others behind his back. Who said Liu Yu's refining medicine in Niujia Village has no one to prove it?"

The granddaughter's words reminded Dong Zhuo that the little white pill in his arms was brought back from Niujia Village by his granddaughter!So he temporarily stopped the brush in his hand, and watched curiously as his granddaughter defended Liu Yu there.

Dong Bai explained anxiously: "I have been to Liu Yu's house many times, and his wife who has never been with him is also a friend, but my friend's name is Zou Huimin, not Cai Yan!"

Seeing the concern and anxiety on his granddaughter's face, Dong Zhuo asked with a smile, "Hehe, when did Xiaobai become so caring about people? Well, grandpa won't order people to be arrested for the time being, but the matter in this letter is still there. Only Liu Yu can explain it clearly!"

Although Liu Yu's recent "disappearance" is suspicious, it would be a bit hasty to convict based on just a report letter, and he also saw a trace of young people's affection from his granddaughter's expression, so Dong Zhuo didn't want to make his granddaughter unhappy .

Li Ru knew that Princess Weiyang was Dong Zhuo's confidant, so he didn't dare to refute Dong Bai directly, but if he couldn't put Liu Yu to death this time, then he would have to bear Liu Yu's counterattack.

So he carefully reminded Dong Zhuo, saying: "The letter said that Liu Yu had helped the bandits capture Yiyang County under the pretext of looking for medicine, so his subordinates had already sent a fast horse to visit Yiyang City. If you have ever helped bandit soldiers attack a city, you can find out just by asking!"

Dong Bai stomped his feet angrily when he heard that Li Ru was still targeting Liu Yu, "Grandpa, don't believe him, Liu Yu has really been refining medicine for you!"

Dong Zhuo smiled and comforted him again: "Don't worry, grandpa won't wrong a good man!"

Hearing that Dong Zhuo's tone seemed to loosen, Li Ru was about to remind him again but saw Dong Zhuo touching his nose.

Every time Dong Zhuo touched his nose, it meant killing intent in his heart, so Li Ru immediately understood that Dong Zhuo had not given up his suspicion of Liu Yu.

It all depends on whether the people in Yiyang can bring back useful evidence.

……

The east gate of Luoyang City was extremely lively today. In the morning, a large number of officials and generals came to send off Lu Bu, but in the evening, a large group of people came and waited in line.

Liu Yu went back to the city, he came from outside the east gate alone, a soldier from the city tower had discovered him long ago, and informed his superiors in time.

Soon, a team of 500 armored guards came to the east gate, led by Anxi General Ma Teng and Pingxi General Han Sui, but this team came here not to meet the work, but to ensure that Liu Yu would not Absconded in fear of crime.

Liu Yu strode into the city gate, only to see a very long weapon on his shoulders, wrapped in a thick layer of cloth outside the weapon, so that people could not see what kind of weapon it was.

"The grand master arranged for me to wait for the king of Zhongshan next time, and please temporarily hand over the weapons to my subordinates for safekeeping. Hehe, after all, weapons are not allowed on the golden palace!" weapons.

Liu Yuwei turned sideways and avoided the other party, "Oh? I didn't expect the Grand Master to arrange such a grand welcome ceremony for me. If that's the case, then I will lead the way!"

After Liu Yu finished speaking, he ignored Han Sui who was still stretching out his hand, but looked at his disciple Ma Chao who was standing behind Ma Teng.

"I know that my disciple's martial arts skills are good, so I specially found a magic weapon for you! Come here and see if you are good at it."

Ma Chao happily stepped forward to take the weapon, but when he was about to uncover it to see what kind of weapon it was, Liu Yu stopped him again.

"This weapon cannot be uncovered for the time being, because it is still an important evidence! You can use it at will after it completes its mission as evidence."

"Evidence?" Ma Chao weighed the weapon with his hands in doubt, feeling very heavy. "Master, what is this evidence about?"

After Liu Yu heard the words, he smiled mysteriously and didn't explain any more, but asked Ma Chao to help him carry the weapons and walk to the palace together.
