Under Lin Yuan's arrangement, all the princes received Cao Cao's own handwritten message to punish the thieves.

When other princes heard about the brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, they began to count their soldiers and prepare to conquer Dong Zhuo.

There was also an imperial edict issued by the emperor, and princes from all sides responded to Suanzao to jointly attack Dong Zhuo.

Cao Cao also arranged for Cao Ren to send people to various cities to spread propaganda against thieves.

Soon everyone in the world knew that Cao Cao had an imperial edict from the emperor and invited princes from all sides to conquer Dong Zhuo.

Suddenly, all forces focused their attention on the princes of all parties....

Luoyang, Taishi Mansion!

"Snapped!"

"Cao Cao is a thief. I wish I could eat his flesh, his blood, and sleep on his skin."

"It’s in vain that I relied so much on him before. I didn’t expect that this thief not only assassinated me but also"

"He even invited other princes to conquer me"

"I must cut his body into thousands of pieces and kill everyone in his family."

In the main hall, Dong Zhuo slapped the table hard, with an angry look on his face.

Cao Cao issued a proclamation to conquer himself, and the whole world already knew about it.

He who was far away in Luoyang naturally knew it all. When he knew the news, Dong Zhuo felt Furious.

In a fit of rage, he killed several ministers who opposed him. Even so, he could not dissipate the anger in his heart.

Li Ru stood in the center of the hall, looked at Dong Zhuo with an angry look on his face and said:

"Master, please calm down and let your body take over!"

In addition to the counselors Dong Zhuo and Li Ru, there are also several other counselors such as Jia Xu in the hall.

There are also several burly generals on the other side. The one at the front is Dong Zhuo's adopted son Lu Bu.

Behind Lu Bu, there are several people standing Xiliang general

"What you said makes sense. Please calm down your adoptive father."

"Cao Cao is a villain and does not deserve his adoptive father's wrath."

Lu Bu stood up and echoed Li Ru.

Dong Zhuo felt much better after hearing the words of his most trusted advisor and his most trusted adopted son.

His face returned to calmness and he looked at the people standing in the hall and said:"You are all my confidants."

"Cao Cao's propaganda against me has been known to the world"

"The princes from all sides also responded one after another. If you have any strategies, please feel free to tell us."

When Dong Zhuo mentioned the princes from all sides, there was a hint of fear in his heart.

He had a brave Xiliang army under his command, and he had not taken these princes seriously before.

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao actually united seventeen princes to conquer him, so Many princes came together.

Dong Zhuo felt a hint of danger, so Dong Zhuo invited Li Ru, Lu Bu and other confidants to discuss the decision.

"Let me tell you, my adoptive father, even if these princes form an alliance, they may just be pretending to do so."

"These princes are still afraid of the adoptive father's reputation."

Lu Bu looked at Dong Zhuo and said first.

Dong Zhuo felt much better after hearing Lu Bu's praise.

"Feng Xian's words are inappropriate. This time the princes came to attack the Grand Master."

"These people are following His Majesty's imperial decree. If there is an imperial decree, these princes will definitely agree to conquer the Grand Master."

Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo and refuted Lu Bu's opinion.

"snort!"

"The emperor is in my hands, and the imperial edict came from Cao Cao. This traitor is falsely passing on the imperial edict."

"Is there any way Li Ru can let the world know about the fake imperial edict?"

Dong Zhuo had a hint of dissatisfaction on his face when he heard the imperial edict, and looked at Li Ru on the side and asked.

Hearing Dong Zhuo's inquiry, Li Ru had a wry smile on his face, hesitated and said:

"If this imperial edict comes from the mouths of other princes, I can expose it as a false edict."

"But this imperial edict was spoken by Cao Cao, and Cao Cao had already stated it in his edict."

"To assassinate the Prime Minister is to obey the imperial edict, so even if the imperial edict in Cao Cao's hands is false, it becomes true."

Although Dong Zhuo is unwilling to admit it, it has to be said that only Cao Cao dared to assassinate him.

Now everyone in the world knows this news, and everyone in the world must believe that this imperial edict is true.

"Sir, I have a guess"

"Cao Cao may have a counselor beside him to advise him. Li

Ru looked at Dong Zhuo with a solemn look on his face.

Dong Zhuo was stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Ru and said:

"Wenyou, didn't you say a few days ago that spies were placed in Chenliu?"

"According to the information sent back by the spies, except for Zhang Miao and a few generals, Cao Cao had no advisers to assist him."

"Why did you say today that Cao Cao has advisers to help him?"

Hearing Dong Zhuo's words, Li Ru had an embarrassed look on his face:

"Forging an imperial edict is the crime of punishing the nine tribes. Cao Cao will do it no matter how courageous he is."

"Maybe it was the counselor who assisted him and gave Cao Cao a plan."

"Not only that, Cao Cao only had more than 10,000 new soldiers under his command, and he was unable to compete with the Grand Master."

"Using false imperial edicts, he called on other princes to jointly attack the Grand Master."

"These two strategies may be strategies provided to Cao Cao by his advisers."

"As for the information sent back by the secret agent, I think there may have been a problem with the information."

Li Ru had a look of embarrassment on his face after saying that. He thought about Cao Cao's previous actions in Chenliu.

He thought that Cao Cao had a counselor beside him to advise him, but later the intelligence sent back by the secret agent dispelled his guess.

Today, he learned that Cao Cao falsely conveyed the imperial edict. Joined other princes to conquer Dong Zhuo.

Li Ru once again believed that there was a trick for Cao Cao. The spy planted in Chenliu might have been caught.

That information might be to confuse himself.

This is the first time that Li Ru has been an official for so many years. He felt frustrated.

Maybe he was really deceived by Cao Cao's counselor and fell into a disadvantage.

Dong Zhuo's face turned slightly solemn when he heard Li Ru's words.

If Cao Cao really had such a counselor around him, it would be a serious problem for him.

"The eighteen princes are attacking me. How should I respond?"
