"Haha, the Empress Dowager is absolutely right! His Majesty should leave Luoyang immediately for an eastern tour. A place to stay has already been found in Chenliu!"
"I have arranged everything. As long as a large army guards Hulao Pass, Liu Wei's troops will not be able to enter."
"At that time, Luoyang will be ravaged by plague, Liu Wei's million-strong army will be wiped out, and the crisis of the Han Dynasty will be resolved!"
"Your Majesty, you are still Your Majesty, and His Majesty is still His Majesty!"
Dong Zhuo looked at Yuan Wei and the others meaningfully, "Grand Tutor, don't you agree?"
Yuan Feng and the others shouted, "There's absolutely no way we'd go with you!"
"The Empress Dowager and His Majesty have both gone, and you are not going? Do you intend to open the gates of Luoyang and welcome Liu Wei in to pledge allegiance to the new master?"
Dong Zhuo sneered, "Someone saw Wang Situ and Yuan Taiwei linger at the residence of the Grand Commandant, and then the Grand Commandant and Liu Yu left through the north gate in a carriage."
"Are you trying to get *** to act as your intermediary, planning to sell His Majesty and the Empress Dowager to Liu Wei so they can keep their official positions?"
Dong Zhuo's words revealed the intention of Yuan, Wang, Yang, and others to strip naked.
That's really true!
Empress Dowager He glared at them angrily, while Huang Wan and Lu Zhi immediately became wary of Yuan Wei and the others.
No wonder they said earlier that Huang and Lu's troops were left behind to provide cover, while Yuan Wei and the others took His Majesty away first!
It turns out the Yuan family had this plan all along.
Faced with the million-strong army of the Cloud King, they had already devised a way to retreat.
"Empress Dowager, Dong Zhuo is talking nonsense. We are loyal to His Majesty." Yuan Wei and others hurriedly expressed their stance.
"Very well, since you all claim to be loyal, then let's stop fighting each other. Staying in Luoyang means certain death. Let's all leave the city together and head to Chenliu!"
Seeing that Yuan Wei and the others had given in, Empress Dowager He immediately became more enthusiastic, "Doctor Lu, Governor of Huangzhou, gather the five schools of the Northern Army, the Western Garden Army, and the Yuzhou Army to protect His Majesty as he leaves the city."
"The Empress Dowager is wise!"
Dong Zhuo was overjoyed. "I have already sent troops to seize Xuanmen Pass with the help of both inside and outside forces. Before Liu Wei can react, let's retreat eastward immediately."
“We…” Yuan Wei and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Grand Tutor, if you do not leave, then your families must not be spared!"
Dong Zhuo gave a cold laugh.
At first, Yuan Wei, Wang Yun, and Yang Biao made excuses not to come to the Grand Tutor's mansion, but now it's a good opportunity to pack them up and take them away together.
"Dong Zhuo, you...you will die a horrible death!"
Yuan Wei, Wang Yun, Wei Hu, and others stamped their feet and glared angrily.
"Grand Tutor, if you don't want your family to die, then you'd better obey me. When we get to Chenliu, you'll still be the Grand Tutor, haha!"
Dong Zhuo was extremely pleased with himself and almost forgot that he had fallen into someone else's trap.
"Father-in-law, since the Empress Dowager is coming with us, let's get out of here quickly!"
Li Ru hurriedly reminded, "The situation at Xuanmen Pass is unclear; we can't afford to delay."
Dong Zhuo nodded: "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, please!"
