"Congratulations, General, on becoming the Grand General."

"Congratulations, General."

Lu Bu's subordinates didn't care who he was loyal to. As long as the general was promoted, they would benefit as well.

Luoyang court.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, and Your Majesty. Our greatest threat is finally gone."

"This is all thanks to Lu Bu."

But as soon as He Lian finished speaking, someone was unhappy.

"My Lady, even though Lü Bu killed Dong Zhuo, he still couldn't be promoted to the rank of general."

"I have discussed this with His Majesty. The reason our Great Han has been plagued by constant turmoil over the years is because we lack a powerful general to keep the situation under control. Lü Bu is recognized as the strongest man in the Han Dynasty. He is the perfect choice for the position of Grand General."

This statement convinced some people, but Wang Yun immediately stood up and said:

"Your Majesty, I have something to say."

He Lian glanced at Wang Yun.

She had no good feelings towards Wang Yun. Wang Yun's only contribution was to escort them mother and son back to the palace, nothing more.

But the biggest contributor behind the scenes is unwilling to come to the front.

What’s even more infuriating is that her man is unhappy with Wang Yun. This is the biggest reason why she dislikes Wang Yun.

People may not like him, but he still lets people talk to him.

"explain."

"Your Majesty, remember what I said? I would help Your Majesty get rid of Dong Zhuo. And I did."

He Lian is so disgusting now.

Last time, Fengyun gave it up voluntarily, but this time he just claimed it directly.

The system notification said it very clearly, it was Lu Bu who killed him.

At this time, not to mention He Lian, even the ministers thought Wang Yun was shameless.

Wang Yun was not a fool. Seeing everyone's unfriendly expressions, Wang Yun quickly explained:

"This time, I specially sent my adopted daughter Diao Chan to Chang'an to incite a conflict between Lü Bu and Dong Zhuo. Only then did Lü Bu kill Dong Zhuo. She just sent me a message."

"Humph! How can a weak little woman like me cause them to fight among themselves?"

"Everyone, once you see Diao Chan, you will definitely understand."

"Okay then, ask her to come over and confront him."

"she..."

Wang Yun was choked with anger.

"I..."

"Hmph, you have nothing to say?"

Wang Yun was so angry.

Diao Chan had already told her that she had repaid the favor, had no regrets, and would not come back.

As for where to go, Diao Chan did not say.

How can he bring it?

It didn't stump Wang Yun.

"You can ask General Lu yourself. He will give you the answer."

Seeing Wang Yun's shameless behavior, He Lian became angry.

"Alright, this is the end of it. Lu Bu's appointment as general is over."

With He Lian's final decision, Wang Yun's plan to continue taking credit was completely over.

This made him even hate Lu Bu.

"That damn Lu Bu, when he comes over, we must treat him well."

At this time, Lu Bu was still discussing with his generals.

"General, we cannot let go of Hangu Pass. First, it can intimidate Chang'an, and second, it can prevent Luoyang from looking down on us. If Luoyang dares to look down on us, we will hand Hangu Pass over to Chang'an."

It’s no wonder that Lu Bu really listened to the advice.

"What you said makes sense. You can stay here first. I will go to Luoyang myself to see how the court will treat me. If they don't treat me well, we will return to Bingzhou."

"That's right! We won't tolerate this humiliation. If the court treats the general harshly, we will return to Bingzhou immediately."

"Okay, brothers, I'll go explore the way first."

"Goodbye, General."

Lu Bu thought that killing Dong Zhuo would have little impact on him, which made his unbridled ambition grow little by little.

To the Luoyang court, he was an outsider.

He knew that he would be ostracized. If the Luoyang court could not tolerate him, then he would just become the king of the mountains.

Now Lu Bu has figured it out.

He rushed all the way to Luoyang, and by the time he arrived, the morning court had already ended.

If you miss it, you can only wait until tomorrow.

But he had another thing to do, which was to find Wang Yun.

Lu Bu was lucky as Wang Yun happened to have no social engagements today.

He was enjoying the singing girl's dance at home.

When Wang Yun heard that it was Lu Bu who came, he did not say anything.

He just didn't go to the door to greet him in person, but asked the butler to handle it.

I thought I could easily get rid of him, but unexpectedly Lu Bu broke in.

"General Lu, it's not easy for Lord Situ to receive guests right now. If you want to visit your residence, please come back another day."

"Why change the date? Since we're here, why not meet today? I'm not here to cause any trouble, so what's the big deal?"

Seeing Lü Bu pushing the steward, Wang Yun said angrily:

"Lu Bu! Are you polite?"

Seeing that Wang Yun was unhappy, Lu Bu said politely:

"Master Situ, I'm sorry to bother you today. I have something I want to ask of you."

"What's the matter?" When Wang Yun heard that he had something to ask of him, he immediately put on airs.

"It's a small matter. I want to see Miss Diao Chan."

"I'm sorry, I can't do this?"

"How could she not do that? Didn't she follow your instructions to kill Dong Zhuo?"

"That's true, but I can't do it now. I don't know where she went."

When Lu Bu heard Wang Yun's words, he knew he was trying to shirk responsibility.

"Wang Situ, there's no need to do this, right? You have no hatred in the past, and no grudges in the present. I just want to see Diao Chan, so there's no need to make things difficult for me, right?"

But Wang Yun spread his hands and said, "I really can't arrange it. She hasn't come back yet."

"Humph! I, Lu Bu, am at least a great general of the imperial court. You won't even give me this little bit of face, right?"

Seeing Wang Yun evading orders, Lu Bu lost his patience.

Wang Yun also has a temper. Is there something wrong with him?

It would be fine if he just broke into a private house, but he insisted on seeing Diao Chan when he caught me. I had already said that Diao Chan didn't exist, but he still kept pestering me.

Then he said in the same stubborn tone:

"If you don't give it to me, then don't give it to me. What can you do to me?"

"you..."

At this moment, Lu Bu was on the verge of rage.

But he miraculously held back.

Although the other party does not give him face, he does not owe him anything, so why should he give himself face?

There is no one else here, so even if Wang Yun doesn't give him face, he really can't do anything to him.

After Lu Bu figured it out, he calmed down instantly.

Since you're new here, it's best to keep a low profile.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to integrate into Luoyang's upper class circles.

"Okay, I won't argue with you. But I hope you can tell Diao Chan that I, Lü Bu, have come to Luoyang to see her and hope to meet her."

After saying this, he ignored Wang Yun and turned to walk out of the mansion.

This made Wang Yun very confused.

Where can I find Diao Chan by myself?

Lu Bu randomly found an inn to stay in temporarily. The next morning, someone from the palace invited him to attend the court meeting.
