At this time, inside the Luoyang Imperial Palace, the princes felt uncomfortable when they saw the empty palace.

"Alas~ How could a man like me end up in such a situation?"

"In any case, Luoyang is back in our hands."

"But your majesty has been abducted by Dong Zhuo again."

"Your Majesty! Everyone knows that's a fake."

"His Majesty is missing now, so we can't say anything."

"Your Majesty must have been taken away by the Ten Attendants, but these guys seem to have disappeared."

"Let's talk about it, what should we do next?"

"What else can we do? Open Hangu Pass and rescue His Majesty, otherwise our country will be destroyed."

"But Lü Bu has already run back. We can't take Hangu Pass with Lü Bu around."

"But what shall we do now?"

At this time, someone suddenly suggested:

"Everyone, I think everyone's thinking the wrong way. Everyone knows that His Majesty is a fake, but they have no choice but to rush into the fire. If we find the real His Majesty, won't all problems be solved?"

This is true and resonates with everyone.

"Yes, yes, yes. But where can we find His Majesty? They say His Majesty was abducted by the Ten Attendants, but where are they?"

"I think this is easier than taking Chang'an. Although our Han Dynasty has a vast territory, we only have a few cities. We can search for them one by one."

"But what if His Majesty is not in the city?"

"Then let's expand the search area and search the village. They can't be living deep in the mountains or forests."

"Yes, I think it's possible. As long as we increase the reward for clues, we can let adventurers search for us. That way, we don't have to worry even if we are short of manpower."

"Yes, that's a good idea. I think we should do it this way."

At this time, Fengyun was also considering whether to let Liu Bian come back to power to end Dong Zhuo's rebellion sooner.

But at this time someone said something that forced him to hold it back.

"Everyone, I have an idea. We've worked so hard for two months, and we've spent a lot of manpower and material resources. But if we go back like this, we all feel like we've lost out, and we won't be able to explain it to the family."

This statement resonated with everyone, but many people were too shy to speak out.

But no one objected.

"That's something we can consider. What do you all think? Luoyang doesn't seem to have been ruined by Dong Zhuo. There's nothing wrong with our small gains."

"Yes, we should get some benefits. But what benefits? We can't just rob people openly, right?"

"Collect taxes. Since His Majesty is not here, we can't let those merchants get away with it for free."

"Yes, that's a good idea, Alliance Leader. How about we just tax them?"

At this time Fengyun rolled his eyes at them, thinking that these people were really dreaming.

What does being able to preserve Luoyang have to do with them?

This is entirely my own credit.

"Everyone, forget about it. It was the Luoyang garrison that saved Luoyang; it had nothing to do with us. Whether we come or not, Dong Zhuo will not be able to harm the people of Luoyang."

But these words stimulated everyone present.

"General Fengyun, I know you have a relationship with them, but they are just warriors after all. They don't understand what taxes are. We are also doing this for the Han Dynasty. Isn't it only right that we collect some taxes?"

"Yes, the leader is right."

At this time everyone said that Yuan Shao was right, and Fengyun was speechless.

If he didn't let these people go, would he still attack Luoyang by force?

"Everyone, they didn't even let Dong Zhuo into Luoyang, so how could they let you in so easily?"

No one took Fengyun's words seriously.

"This is different. Dong Zhuo is a traitor, and we are the righteous army of the Han Dynasty. They have no reason to stop us from entering."

"Isn't everyone's army still outside Luoyang City? Did they let us in?"

"We've already entered the palace, and they haven't objected."

Fengyun didn't want to hint at it anymore. These idiots really thought they were the saviors.

Seeing Fengyun stopped talking, Yuan Shao spoke again.

"Come on, let's go talk to them now."

Everyone agreed.

But when they walked out of the palace gate and entered the outer city of Luoyang, they were stopped.

"Stop! No one in the army is allowed to set foot into Luoyang City."

Everyone was stunned. What kind of rule was this?

"Why?"

"Because we are afraid that you will come in and cause harm to the people."

These words made everyone feel deeply humiliated.

"What! You actually think we're as bad as Dong Zhuo!"

"Assholes, you are slandering me!"

"Call your general. I want to interview him."

“…”

Everyone started to scold the guards.

But the guards were unmoved and even rolled their eyes at them.

No one can come in until they get the order.

Seeing that his words were not responded to.

Yuan Shao immediately shouted outside:

"Zhao Mingfan, come out here."

Yuan Shao was also one of the Xiyuan captains in the past, and he was extremely dissatisfied with the current commander of the Xiyuan Army.

At least he has his own trained soldiers under him.

If Jian Shuo hadn't caused so many troubles, he would still be the captain of Xiyuan.

Seeing that he was named, Zhao Mingfan had to show up.

"I'm here? Who's looking for me?"

Yuan Shao was now very proud, holding his head high, and said:

"It's me, Yuan Shao. Leader of the coalition."

"Oh, I see. What do you want to talk to me about?" Zhao Mingfan said casually.

"Why can't we enter Luoyang? What right do you have to stop us from entering Luoyang?"

Zhao Mingfan said indifferently:

"Why should I let you into Luoyang? Why should I let you into Luoyang again?"

"We were the ones who drove Dong Zhuo away. You should thank us!"

"You drove Dong Zhuo away? But so what? Were you protecting the people of Luoyang from Dong Zhuo's exploitation for so long? Were you preventing Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army from harming the people? I'm telling you, whether you come or not, you are not. It is us who protected the people of Luoyang. Even if you don't come, the people of Luoyang will still not be persecuted."

These words left Yuan Shao speechless for a moment.

They really couldn't say that they saved the people of Luoyang. The good or bad of the people of Luoyang had nothing to do with them at all.

There has never been one before, and there will never be one in the future.

But the coalition forces were under the banner of attacking Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo ran away, and they felt that they were being looked down upon.

The princes were angry and felt offended.

"You're wrong. Luoyang is the center of our Han Dynasty. We officials will still be responsible for its management. Without us, who will manage the Han Dynasty?"

"Hahaha, now His Majesty has been taken abducted to Chang'an. If you want to go to Chang'an, go there. Luoyang doesn't need you."
