Chapter 228 This... is the Hexi region that you guard for the Emperor?



His friendship with this cousin was clearly extraordinary.

"General, don't forget why we came here!"

Han Sui, seeing that Lü Bu had lost his composure after being told by Liu Wei that he had a cousin, hurriedly reminded him.

hiss!

Lu Bu immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

If Ding Yuan knew that he had a cousin who was like a brother to the King of Clouds, would he feel resentful?

This King of the Clouds is something else; seemingly casually making connections almost put him in a passive position.

"Hey!"

Lu Bu immediately shouted, "Li Su and I haven't seen each other for many years. We have different ambitions and paths. Your Highness, please don't mislead me."

"The Great Han Dynasty has laws that a prince may not leave his fiefdom without an imperial edict."

"This humble general dares to ask Your Highness, why do you come to the territory of our Liangzhou Governor's Mansion instead of enjoying your life in your fiefdom of Shuofang?"

Upon hearing this, the generals on the city wall were immediately enraged and were about to rebuke Lü Bu for having any right to question the prince of the Han Dynasty.

"Ha ha!"

Liu Wei laughed heartily, never expecting that Lü Bu was not a brainless person.

The fact that he could ask such a question shows that he wanted to seize the moral high ground first.

However, Liu Wei noticed that Lü Bu was accompanied by a scholar.

These words were most likely taught by this scholar!

"why are you laughing?"

Lu Bu was not expected that Liu Wei would laugh at his perfectly reasonable words, and he couldn't help but retort angrily.

"I laugh at your mere bravado; how could you possibly know the laws of the Han Dynasty?"

Liu Wei responded calmly, then changed the subject sharply, saying...

"You keep saying this is under the jurisdiction of the Liangzhou Governor's Office, so why are there not a single soldier from Liangzhou in the three counties of Hexi?"

"Why is it that the Yuchi Xianbei have ravaged the three counties of Hexi, causing suffering and displacement to the people, yet no troops from the Liangzhou Governor's Office have come to help?"

Why would the Loulan Kingdom in the Western Regions seek reinforcements from the Hetao region?

"Why do you turn a blind eye to the people of the three prefectures of Hexi?"

"......"

Liu Wei's series of rhetorical questions, like rolling thunder, left Lü Bu speechless for a moment.

Before he could ask Han Sui for his reply, a large group of men, women, and children appeared on the city wall and shouted "Long live the Prince!" to Liu Wei.

Do you know who they are?

"These are just a small part of the people from the three counties who were brutally murdered by the Xianbei barbarians."

"If I hadn't resolutely and promptly dispatched troops, the three prefectures of Hexi would probably have become a living hell, with not a single household surviving for hundreds of miles!"

"I would like to ask Ding Yuan, is this... the Hexi region he is guarding for the Emperor?"
