And on the only way to the Imperial Study.
Lu Bu also brought the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry to block Li Yue and his imperial guards.
Although the number of people led by Bingzhou Wolf Riders is not large, they are in this kind of terrain.
The surrounding area is surrounded by walls, with only a huge archway remaining.
Although the corridor is two and a half meters wide, it is still not fully accessible.
The contact area between the two armies is only so large, so even if there are more people, they cannot play much of a role.
The walls of the palace have been specially treated and are almost integrated with the dragon veins, making it difficult to break through the walls and find another way out.
Coupled with the double suppression of clouds and dragon veins at this moment, the personal strength of the soldiers on both sides can be said to be suppressed to the extreme.
As a result, this place became a place where one man could block the way for ten thousand men.
If you really fight it, it will become a meat grinder.
Li Yue, who was followed by five thousand imperial guards, saw Lu Bu standing in front of him, ready for battle.
I started to constantly calculate how likely I was to win.
If I could have done it, I would have done it long ago, but it's a pity.
After Li Yue thought for a moment, he realized that taking action was not a good option.
It’s not that he was afraid of getting injured or his soldiers dying. After all, as the imperial guards of the Great Emperor, their lives no longer belonged to them.
Even if it means sacrificing himself, he will do it to save His Majesty.
But he also knew how powerful Lu Bu was, although he didn't know what he had done in the Xiongnu.
There are only 2,000 people now, and the military spirit cannot be gathered, but that was the case when we destroyed the Western Qiang.
The man in front of him, who was able to destroy an entire country by himself, was still fresh in Li Yue's memory.
If a fight breaks out, regardless of who wins or loses, the war will not be over in a short time.
The situation in the palace is unclear now, and Your Majesty doesn't know what to do.
However, since those traitors dared to take action, they must have been well prepared.
So now His Majesty may be in danger. Every moment I am late, the danger to His Majesty's life will become more serious.
I am now entangled in a fight with Lu Bu, which resulted in my failure to rescue Your Majesty in time, causing Your Majesty to lose his life.
So no matter what, even if I win here, it will be of no use.
Li Yue decided to try to persuade him. He believed that a brave general like Lu Bu must be a close minister, and that there must be some misunderstanding behind his doing this.
"General Lu, why are you rebelling? His Majesty has never treated you unfairly.
How could you do such a thing? You are a great hero. You have annihilated the Western Qiang and destroyed the Xiongnu. These are great achievements and you are respected by all the people.
If you want to leave your name in history, why would you do such a thing?
I'm afraid the general may have been bewitched by the thieves, and that's why he's here."
Li Yue spoke step by step, first praising Lu Bu, and then asking why he did such a thing.
Lu Bu looked at Li Yue coldly, but he did not attack directly. Instead, he laughed loudly and said:
"Commander Li, it's been a long time since we last met in Xiqiang. I haven't seen you since then.
According to the Grand Prince, Your Majesty has been bewitched by a treacherous man, Zhao Gao.
They instigated Your Majesty to collude with the demon clan, which led to the demon disaster in Shu and caused the people of Shu to be displaced.
If this continues for a long time, it will probably cause even greater disasters, and the people will be in danger.
I am an incompetent general, and I know that this is a dangerous and treasonous act, but for the sake of the people, there are some things that I have to do.
Since His Highness has found me, it means he trusts me.
After this matter is over, no matter how Your Majesty deals with me, I will be treated as such.
As long as I can eliminate the treacherous ministers and save the great people, it will be my fortune.
We must not allow the treacherous people to mislead Your Majesty.
As for leaving a name in history, everything I do is for the greater good, and future generations will judge everything."
Lu Bu's words were full of energy and there was no sign of wavering.
After saying this, he swung the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand forward suddenly and said, "Commander Li, I'm afraid I'm going to offend you."
When Li Yue heard this and saw that Lu Bu seemed ready to die, he knew that it was impossible for him to force his way through.
He was a meticulous person and immediately came up with a plan.
He did not attack immediately, but put away his weapon.
Wanting to be alone, he walked up to Lu Bu and tried to persuade him, in order to show his sincerity.
The deputy general behind him wanted to stop this action, after all, it was too dangerous.
However, Li Yue waved his hands and did not stop. Instead, he walked forward step by step, raised his hands, and walked over without any defense.
At this distance, if Lu Bu took action, he could easily take his life.
Li Yue also understood the danger of this action. No matter what, this was the only step he could take.
Whether I live or die doesn't matter much to the battle situation. It is impossible for me to break through the defense here quickly.
On the contrary, dragging it out here would be irresponsible to the Emperor.
So he was gambling, gambling that Lu Bu was just bewitched by the eldest prince, and he had a chance to convince him.
If I die, my deputy general can also lead the soldiers to attack, and the difference between him and the general is not that big.
But if you succeed, you will get a lot.
Li Yue thought that risking his own life was a small bet, but it would bring him a promising future, which was well worth it.
When he was three steps away from Lu Bu, he was not panicked.
Then he said, "General Lu's words have my doubts. I wonder if Your Highness has any evidence? I wonder how you convinced General Lu."
After he finished speaking, he stared closely at Lu Bu's expression. Seeing Lu Bu's surprise, he asked again:
"Could you please tell me? I'm afraid there must be some misunderstanding in these matters."
Lu Bu frowned upon hearing this, but did not take action directly. Instead, he explained, "The chief steward was arrested. This is news from the Huo family. I have verified it and there is no problem.
They say that the chief steward is communicating with the demon tribe and wants to harm the Sixth Prince and the people of Shu.
Could this be true? Your Majesty is wise. If it weren't for the deception of the net, would this have happened?
Your Highness's goal is simply to strangle Zhao Gao."
