李儒 / Li Ru (late Han)

李儒 / Li Ru (late Han) enters the wiki through Hanji 950 as the official sent by 董卓 to poison 刘辩 / 弘农王. The episode uses him as the direct instrument of Dong Zhuo’s royal killing rather than developing an independent biography.

The page is source-scoped. Li Ru matters here because the act clarifies the coercive structure around the late-Han court: command, office, and access can be used to remove an imperial figure while 汉献帝 remains under the same powerholder’s control.
