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

Chapter 89 You treacherous ministers and you incompetent rulers are not worthy to kill me!

When he was led into the main hall, Liu Yu's eyes were somewhat vacant.

He had just witnessed a massacre.

The people wanted His Majesty to uphold justice for them, but His Majesty completely disregarded their lives and treated their pleas for justice as treason!

"Bo'an, I heard you haven't reported anything about the loyalist army yet?"

"Tell me quickly, since Xiang Ji launched a night attack on your camp, they must have suffered losses as well!"

"He doesn't have many soldiers to begin with. If he loses even more, then I can truly rest easy in Luoyang!"

This was the only piece of information Liu Hong could think of regarding the vassal states' armies coming to the aid of the king.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he looked up and saw Liu Yu's bloodshot eyes.

"Your Majesty is mistaken. Xiang Ji's army has an endless number of soldiers. As long as he is still in our Han Dynasty, and as long as our Han Dynasty still has people, then his soldiers can never be killed off!"

"Right now, Xiang Yu enjoys the support of the people, and the advantage that our Han dynasty should have the most has instead fallen into his hands!"

"Your Majesty, do you truly believe that Luoyang is safe and sound?"

"In my opinion, Luoyang is about to fall!"

The questions raised shocked all the officials in the hall.

How dare he say such things in front of His Majesty? Does he really have a death wish?!

"Liu Yu, you have quite the audacity. I previously considered your status as a member of the Han imperial family and was unwilling to truly punish you for your insubordination, but what about you?"

"You have truly failed to live up to my expectations!"

Enraged, Liu Hong stood up, grabbed a piece of porcelain, and smashed it at Liu Yu.

Liu Yu didn't dodge, and was hit on the head until it bled, but he still stared at him intently.

"Have I failed His Majesty's good intentions? Or has His Majesty failed the trust of his millions of subjects?"

"They thought His Majesty had been deceived by villains, and that His Majesty would stand up for them after knowing everything!"

"But they never imagined, even in their dying moments, that Your Majesty, was the executioner who slaughtered them!"

"I boldly predict that within a month, Luoyang will be beset by internal and external troubles, and will eventually surrender to Xiang Yu in the face of his repeated letters of surrender!"

"Your Majesty, you will surely fall into Xiang Ji's hands at that time. You may well guess how Xiang Ji will treat you!"

"I would gladly die, but if Your Majesty does not wake up, the Han Dynasty will truly perish!"

Liu Yu finished speaking and turned to look at the civil and military officials around him.

They should have advised His Majesty against these absurd actions.

But they did nothing.

They are not fit to be officials!

"I, Liu Yu, am ashamed to be associated with you!"

Enraged and ashamed, He Jin drew his sword.

Before he could react, Liu Yu stepped forward and snatched the sword from his hand.

This move completely panicked everyone.

"Escort!"

"Quick escort!"

"Where are the palace guards? Why haven't they killed this scoundrel yet!"

"Somebody come!"

But Liu Yu did not make any further radical moves; he simply stood there, gripping his sword.

“He Jin, I have already heard from Zigan that it was your idea to defend the city at the cost of the people’s lives and to threaten the Yellow Turbans.”

"I will not kill you; your lives should be reserved for the common people!"

"But you are not worthy to kill me, Your Majesty, you are not worthy!"

"Now that I'm here, I never intended to leave alive."

"But you treacherous ministers and you, a foolish ruler, are not worthy to kill me!"

Liu Yu held his sword across his neck, coldly staring at the officials.

“You people receive salaries from the court, yet you do not know how to serve the court or advise His Majesty.”

"I will be waiting in the netherworld, waiting for Xiang Yu to send you all down to play a funeral song for the Han Dynasty!"

Before he came, he had thought he would try his best to advise His Majesty.

But now, all he wants is to die.

He couldn't change any of this, nor did he want to see the Han Dynasty perish. All he could do was die!

When blood splattered everywhere, everyone was shocked.

They never imagined that Liu Yu would be so fierce!

Unfortunately, most people still think he is making a mountain out of a molehill.

They would only think that the imperial court could perish because of the common people.

How could a commoner have the right to influence the rise and fall of the Han Dynasty!

"Hmph, it's nothing but spreading rumors and misleading the public. Your Majesty need not take it to heart."

He Jin retrieved the longsword from Liu Yu's corpse and snorted coldly.

"Although some lowly people caused trouble in the city, they have long been suppressed. How could people like them possibly affect the Han Dynasty's rule!"

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the envoy has been dispatched. Soon, the kings of the Wuhuan, Nanman and other tribes will see the sincerity of our Great Han and will naturally send troops to aid us."

"If we just hold Luoyang, Xiang Yu will surely be defeated within three months!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Hong's initially panicked expression calmed down once again.

It's just a matter of ceding some land.

As for the money and provisions used to bribe the rebels in other places, they were all raised by the officials, which did not affect his newly built palace in the slightest.

So what is there to worry about?

"Then continue to escort the lowly people up to the city wall. Remember to feed them once a day; the dead are of no use."

"Your Majesty is so kind!"

"Your Majesty is truly a benevolent and righteous ruler."

"If those lowly people knew, they would be so grateful!"

Inside the main hall, Liu Yu's corpse stood in stark contrast to the sycophantic officials.

His death did not awaken anyone.

But he had done all he could.

……

"Your Majesty, Liu Yu is dead."

"Lu Zhi has been imprisoned again, and it is unknown when he will be executed."

"The number of people who were brought up to the city wall was not only not released, but actually increased."

Sishui Pass.

Huangfu Song's heart was already filled with anger.

If he had known this would happen, he really shouldn't have let Liu Yu go!

“Don’t blame yourself.”

Xiang Yu also felt some regret.

"Liu Yu will never surrender under any circumstances; his death was already destined."

Xiang Yu admired such a person, but also respected his choice.

Even if Huangfu Song doesn't release him, he will eventually.

Such a person has his own mission.

"When will our army attack the city?"

Huangfu Song quickly asked.

He couldn't wait another day.

But Xiang Yu only took him to look at the warehouse inside the pass.

Hundreds of bloody human skins lay quietly there.

"See that? This is the threat Liu Hong is posing to us."

“If we attack the city, they will slaughter the people.”

"The siege will not stop for a moment, nor will their slaughter."

"If we launch a full-scale attack, how many survivors do you think will be left in Luoyang after we take it?"

Is this the outcome you wanted to see?

Huangfu Song: "..."

All he wants now is to sprout wings, fly to the palace, and slaughter all the civil and military officials!

How dare they do this!

Are you really not afraid of divine retribution?!
