The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

As Sima Zhao hurriedly ran out of the palace, Empress Dowager Guo's body instantly went limp.

How could she not sense the intense murderous intent in Sima Shi's final words?

If he had a knife, he might not have killed himself, but Eunuch Guo would certainly not have escaped death.

Fortunately, he's gone.

"I am now completely doomed."

After a long silence, Empress Dowager Guo smiled bitterly.

She realized that ever since she agreed to join forces with the young emperor and made that seemingly insignificant move, every step she took afterward was a path to certain doom!

Guo Gonggong had not yet reacted.

Or rather, he hadn't yet recovered from the intense killing intent Sima Zhao had just displayed.

For a brief moment, he almost thought he was going to die!

"Eunuch Guo, do you think my choice was right?"

Seeing that he did not respond, Empress Dowager Guo asked again.

After repeated urging, Eunuch Guo finally came to his senses.

He looked at the Empress Dowager, his eyes still filled with lingering fear.

But his answer to this question is undoubtedly yes.

"The Empress Dowager's choice to support the legitimate Emperor of the Great Wei is absolutely without question!"

"The Sima family is too bloodthirsty and powerful, and no one can stop them. Cooperating with them is like asking a tiger for its skin!"

They dared to purge even the aristocratic clans, let alone them?

Choosing the Sima family means spending your whole life cowering like a turtle!

In the past, they only had the choice to either cower in the mud or die; it was practically like they had no other options.

But now, they have a choice!

Although the current emperor's power is far less than that of the Sima family, he has already begun to show his potential.

In his view, this was not a dead end at all, but rather a chance to escape from a desperate situation!

Not only the Great Wei, but also these people!

The other side.

News arrived that Sima Zhao had come and gone in haste.

Because Liu Bang was surrounded by spies, he wanted to laugh but dared not, and almost suffered internal injuries from holding it in.

He could foresee that after Sima Zhao returned, Sima Shi would be furious.

If nothing unexpected happens, Zhen De, who married into the Guo family, along with Guo Jian, will most likely suffer some physical pain.

It's unlikely that he will die.

If the Sima family wants to retain the power to overturn the table, they must keep their lackeys around them.

Even if these people are completely incompetent, they can only obediently endure it.

We should be able to say that we've barely made it through this crisis, but since we've already made the decision once, the second time will only be easier.

Sima Shi was not one to sit idly by and wait for his death.

Next time, he probably won't leave such an obvious flaw.

This means that if Wang Xiang continues to blunder in the Sima family's minefield, not only will he die, but Liu Bang will also have to reluctantly pull out all the things that are not yet fully prepared.

However, this might simplify things.

……

"This is probably the difference between me and Emperor Gaozu of Han. If it were me, I would have already led Chen Tai's private army and Jiao Bo's elite troops out of the capital."

Seeing that Liu Bang had temporarily averted the crisis in the scene, Li Er couldn't help but sigh.

Although the timing was indeed a bit early, it wasn't impossible to take advantage of it.

Guanqiu Jian's troops were mostly elite soldiers who had resisted Eastern Wu for many years. As long as they were lured by benefits to prevent Eastern Wu from causing trouble in the short term, they could even be persuaded to send troops to help.

It is not impossible for a single province to fight against the entire Great Wei.

Ultimately, the title of emperor still belongs to Liu Bang!

"After all, my father did not bring the Marquis of Huaiyin this time. The Marquis of Liu is more versatile, but he is not much at personally leading troops into battle."

Liu Heng, however, knew the reason behind it.

Liu Bang clearly remembered how many times he had failed in his struggle for the throne.

At that time, no matter how miserably he was defeated, he always had a chance to make a comeback.

Because the people of the world support him!

But this time, the situation reversed, and he became the one who couldn't afford to lose even once.

If you want absolute certainty, you have to be extremely careful!

Only by enduring hardship can you increase your chances of winning!

"That's true. If it were really Han Xin, then in this situation, they could indeed fight their way out of the city."

"Even with only one state, the military genius still has a chance to turn the tide."

"However, on the other hand, if it weren't for Zhang Liang's mediation and instead Han Xin was here, Emperor Gaozu would probably still be at a loss right now."

Old Zhu is still the one who speaks the truth.

Han Xin had his merits, but Zhang Liang's role in this challenge was indeed irreplaceable.

After all, not everyone, being of humble status, has the means to come into contact with the elite clans.

"That's true. In the early stages of the challenge, if Han Xin were really there, there would probably be no chance for Chen Tai to come to the palace to pay his respects. At that time, without that tiger skin, he naturally wouldn't be able to intimidate the Empress Dowager."

If things start like this, then we'll really be completely clueless.

"So bringing Zhang Liang along was the right thing to do. As for leading troops, we have Chen Tai, Guanqiu Jian, Wen Qin and his son, and if all else fails, we have Emperor Gaozu himself. A bunch of mediocre people, they can definitely be as good as Zhuge Liang."

"Although the words are rough, the reasoning is sound, but upstairs, your words are really too rough."

Old Zhu glanced at the person speaking upstairs.

Looking at the suffix, it was indeed Li Er!

I know you, Li Er, admire Prime Minister Zhuge, but you don't have to compare these people to cobblers.

Putting everything else aside, just the fact that Liu Bang himself was standing there made Zhuge Liang realize that his methods could not compare to Liu Bang's!

"I was merely using a metaphor, a metaphor, do you understand?"

"Don't worry about those details. What's more important now is how Sima Shi will respond, and..."

Will he really give up?

Looking at the screen above, Mr. Cao was filled with doubt.

You won't give up even after all this?

After thinking for a moment, he turned to look at the people below.

"Is that old bastard Sima Yi dead or not?"

Although Xu Chu was puzzled, he still nodded.

"He's dead beyond dead. If you want to see it, Prime Minister, I'll go and dig his head out right now!"

"But I reckon it's already rotten by now."

Boss Cao: "..."

Who wants to see his head!

"And what about his son, Sima Shi?"

"I don't know. Since it's a clan extermination, we need to compile a list first. I haven't looked at it yet, but I imagine it's almost ready."

Xu Chu said he couldn't figure out what Cao Cao was up to.

"Bring Sima Shi up to me. Since we're all going to die anyway, we might as well let him do his last bit of work before he dies."

Seeing Li Er's last sentence, he was now very curious.

Faced with this situation, would Sima Shi decisively abandon the idea of ​​taking action and go back to the table to talk with Wang Xiang, or what would he do?

After receiving the order, he went down to his post.

Soon, Xu Chu dragged a figure back like a dead dog.

"Prime Minister, Sima Shi has arrived, but it seems he is barely clinging to life."

Boss Cao: "..."

Even if you had a few more breaths left, dragging this on would have killed you anyway, you idiot!

If he had a bowl of rice in his hand, he would like to cover it up and vent his frustration.
