I was watching short videos and historical figures were collectively vomiting blood!

Chapter 6 Why Is Zhu Di Becoming More and More Handsome?

[In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Lü Bu had a habit of recognizing enemies as his father. He got addicted to being someone’s son—first swearing allegiance to Ding Yuan, then to Dong Zhuo. But in the end, he killed both of his adoptive fathers.]. [Lü Bu’s first adoptive father was the governor Ding Yuan. When Lü Bu killed him, he only gave an eight-character explanation: “Ding Yuan was unrighteous, so I killed him.” But in truth, Ding Yuan had treated Lü Bu well.]. [The real reason Lü Bu killed Ding Yuan was to present Dong Zhuo with a “loyalty token” and pledge his allegiance. He simply found a better “father” to serve! Truly, Lü Bu was an ungrateful man.]. [When Dong Zhuo saw Lü Bu, he was as overjoyed as a drought-stricken field receiving rain! Lü Bu, on the other hand, repeated his old trick, saying, “If you do not despise me, I am willing to call you father.” This made Dong Zhuo ecstatic.]. [Effortlessly gaining an unrivaled warrior, Dong Zhuo was thrilled! However, the father-son days between Dong Zhuo and Lü Bu lasted only three years before Dong Zhuo joined Ding Yuan in the afterlife.]. [But how did Lü Bu kill Dong Zhuo? And why did he do it?]. [Was he planning to kill four adoptive fathers so they could all play mahjong in the underworld? Let’s break it down below.]. [During the chaotic times of the Three Kingdoms, war raged, and warlords vied for power. Dong Zhuo seized control, established authority, and, after recruiting Lü Bu and eliminating Ding Yuan, he held immense power and became increasingly ambitious.]. [He deposed Emperor Liu Bian and installed Liu Xie, ruling over the imperial court and commanding both military power and wealth. For a time, he dominated the land.]. [If this continued, the Han dynasty would surely perish! The Minister of Works, Wang Yun, could not bear to see this and took on the mission of eliminating Dong Zhuo.]. [Wang Yun devised a chain strategy. First, he introduced the beautiful Diao Chan from his household to Lü Bu and promised to marry her to him.]. [Next, while Lü Bu was away, he presented Diao Chan to Dong Zhuo.]. [Then, he told Lü Bu that Dong Zhuo had merely taken Diao Chan away on his behalf. However, the next day, Lü Bu discovered that Dong Zhuo had already spent the wedding night with her! Wang Yun successfully sowed discord between them.]. [Diao Chan skillfully played both men against each other. As she deliberately stirred tension, the relationship between Lü Bu and Dong Zhuo deteriorated further, with Wang Yun continuing to incite Lü Bu.]. [After hearing Wang Yun’s words, Lü Bu became furious, slammed the table, and declared, “I swear to kill this old traitor!”]. [In the end, with support from multiple parties, Lü Bu finally assassinated Dong Zhuo.]. [The Fangtian halberd—used exclusively to kill adoptive fathers!].

“Who is Diao Chan?”

“No, wait—why did I kill another adoptive father?!”

After watching the video, Lü Bu nearly coughed up blood.

Was fate truly this cruel?

Was he not destined to serve a worthy master?

For a moment, he fell into deep thought.

“My son… killed me?”

Dong Zhuo stood frozen in place, staring at Lü Bu, who had tears in his eyes.

For a moment, he was utterly confused.

Dong Zhuo already knew that this Heavenly Screen was transmitting information from the future. But right now, he dared not move a muscle. No joke—Lü Bu was the strongest warrior alive.

Earlier, five of Dong Zhuo’s top generals couldn’t even last a single round against him. And now, in the tent, it was just the two of them.

If Lü Bu made a move, Dong Zhuo would die a terrible death!

Since Lü Bu could kill Ding Yuan, his first adoptive father, it’s no surprise that he’d kill me too.

Dong Zhuo thought to himself but didn’t say it aloud.

“Fengxian, my son, this Heavenly Screen comes from an unknown source, and its content is bizarre. I believe someone is trying to manipulate us!”

Lü Bu nodded.

“Father, you make a good point.”

Then, without hesitation, his eyes widened in fury, and he swung his Fangtian halberd. Dong Zhuo’s head rolled to the ground like a stringless bead.

A crimson spray of blood splattered onto the wall. Lü Bu retracted his halberd and looked at the Heavenly Screen.

“Since Dong Zhuo is destined to die by my hand, it doesn’t matter whether he dies sooner or later!”

“Now, go find out who Diao Chan is!”

With that, he mounted his Red Hare horse and galloped away—arrogant and unruly, as always.

Meanwhile, in Other Realms…

“A three-surname slave?”

“Ding Yuan, Dong Zhuo… is Wang Yun the next unfortunate soul?”

“I never thought Lü Bu would be judged so poorly by future generations.”

Cao Cao sighed.

Everyone knew Lü Bu was unmatched in combat. Dong Zhuo wasn’t the only one who wanted Lü Bu as a subordinate. Cao Cao wanted him too!

“But… ‘wielding the Emperor’s authority to command the lords’—now that’s an interesting idea.”

Stroking his beard, Cao Cao pondered his next move.

At that moment, the cunning strategist Jia Xu spoke beside him.

“Chancellor, I believe that if you recruit Lü Bu, he will kill you too.”

Jia Xu had already seen through Cao Cao’s intentions.

“Heh, I’ll just use him up and discard him like a worn-out shoe.”

Jia Xu remained silent.

“Playing with fire will get you burned, Chancellor. Perhaps you should consider my strategy instead—”

“Enough! I don’t want to go down in history as a villain!”

Jia Xu: “…”

Ying Zheng: “A fickle traitor like this should be executed!”

Zhao Gao: “Your Majesty, such a man deserves death at the hands of all.”

Li Shimin had a different view.

“Fubing, what do you think?”

Chancellor Zhangsun Wuji pondered.

“Your Majesty, I believe Lü Bu can be useful.”

“Oh?”

Li Shimin’s interest was piqued.

“From the projection in the Heavenly Screen, Lü Bu has peerless martial prowess but is immature and unprincipled. He is merely a tool for killing.”

“Indeed, Fubing, you have a keen eye.”

Li Shimin nodded—he had the same thought. Lü Bu, strong but simple-minded, was a great weapon but not fit for trust.

Cheng Yaojin muttered, “Lü Bu is nothing more than brute force. Not nearly as interesting as those modern women in silk stockings and nurse outfits!”

Yuchi Gong agreed.

“Are women really like that in the future?”

Damn, men in the future had it good. Heavenly Screen, please send me to the future!

Zhu Biao snorted.

“Lü Bu was indecisive—that’s why he met such a tragic end.”

Zhu Di, however, shook his head.

“He was just unlucky. He didn’t actually do anything wrong.”

Zhu Yuanzhang, observing his two sons, suddenly felt something odd.

Why does Zhu Di look more and more handsome now?

More importantly, if this Heavenly Screen came from the future,

What happened after the Ming Dynasty?

What was the fate of China’s history?

This question piqued the curiosity of everyone. Especially Ying Zheng—he wanted to see exactly how the Qin Dynasty fell.

As if responding to the people’s desires, A new video immediately appeared on the screen.
