This was not the first time that Dong Zhuo was falsely accused, but this time he was extremely angry. After all, the crime of cholera harem was too serious.
Those who spread rumors just want to completely ruin Dong Zhuo's reputation. If Dong Zhuo is not restrained, even jumping into the Yellow River will not be able to clean it up. Top novels are updated the fastest
Although Dong Zhuo didn't care much about his reputation, he wouldn't let others smear him out of thin air. Moreover, it was such a big crime that he was even ready to destroy several families to shock all the aristocratic families.
Li Rutong was sad about this smear incident and smelled something unusual. He always felt that the family had more tricks up their sleeves, so he didn't dare to neglect it at all.
Soon, Li Ru followed the clues and found out several... small families who were hiding behind the scenes and spreading rumors.
"Baling Chen family, Lantian Li family, Xianyang Wang family..."
Dong Zhuo's brows furrowed and he wondered, "How can these small families have the guts to mess with the Za family?"
Li Ru said seriously: "These are just shrimps on the surface, the real big fish are still hiding behind the scenes."
"Do you know who it is?"
"There are already clues, and they will be found out soon."
As he said that, Li Ru handed over a scroll, and Dong Zhuo took it and read it, and immediately sneered: "The Za family said, it turns out that there are big families backing them. In this case, let's take action on these small families, let's do it first Knocking on the mountain shakes the tiger."
"Pass the order, all the men of the nine clans and families on the list will be beheaded, and the female family members will serve as official prostitutes."
Li Ru took a deep breath when he heard this. He originally thought that Dong Zhuo was just talking out of anger, but he didn't expect that this time he was really planning to kill the nine tribes, which would cost thousands of lives.
It was indeed a bit too much to punish the nine tribes just for spreading rumors. Li Ru objected in court, but Dong Zhuo didn't listen at all.
From this, it can be seen that Dong Zhuo was really angry this time and was ready to beat the family severely so that the family would retreat.
Three days later, three small families were executed by the Jiu Clan, and thousands of people were beheaded collectively.
Six days later, two big families were killed in the market. This time, more than 3,000 people were implicated.
Among the more than 5,000 heads that fell to the ground, there were some from aristocratic families, some from civilians, some guilty, and some innocent.
Dong Zhuo's methods were so powerful that all the aristocratic families were frightened by him. Faced with such a ruthless man who would confiscate their homes and exterminate their clans at every turn, all the aristocratic families tacitly chose to bow their heads and endure.
All the rumors about Dong Zhuo disappeared in a short period of time. Although the people stopped spreading rumors, they were deeply afraid of Dong Zhuo's cruelty.
Dong Zhuo implemented the new land system to benefit the people, so it still brought him a good reputation.
However, in order to shock the family, Dong Zhuo took the initiative to destroy most of his good reputation at once.
It can be seen that Dong Zhuo did not care what ordinary people thought of him, and the implementation of the new land system was only for his ambition to dominate the world.
Dong Zhuo used simple and crude methods to make no family in the world dare to go against him, and the implementation of his new policy became smoother. However, Dong Zhuo still underestimated the family.
The aristocratic family can be passed down to this day, and it cannot be surrendered by just the word "kill". Zhang Jiao can't do it, Xiang Yu can't do it, and Dong Zhuo still can't do it.
Photographed by Dong Zhuo's fierce power, although the aristocratic families in the land of Kansai surrendered to Dong Zhuo on the surface, they were still cutting Dong Zhuo's flesh with blunt knives secretly.
You know, the intricate relationships between aristocratic families are like a big network connecting the whole world.
You, Dong Zhuo, can forcibly seal the mouths of the aristocratic families in Kansai, but can you still control all the aristocratic families in the world?
Although the rumors in the land of Kansai stopped, soon all kinds of rumors about Dong Zhuo were circulating in the land of Kanto and the whole world.
These rumors are all very vivid, and there are different versions. Just about staying overnight in the palace, there are more than a dozen versions circulating in the world.
As for other things, such as the corruption of military discipline in Liangzhou's army, the massacre of civilians, killing good people and taking credit for their merits, etc., there are even more versions of these things, which can't be told all day and night.
Most ordinary people are ignorant and like to follow the trend. When they hear others say this, they think it is true without thinking about it.
After the princes from various places learned about it, because they were afraid of Dong Zhuo, they not only did not stop it, but also added fuel to the flames. This also made these rumors more marketable and became more and more outrageous.
For a time, except for the land of Kansai, Dong Zhuo in all versions in the world was a cruel traitor, and Dong Zhuo's reputation was completely ruined.
After Dong Zhuo himself learned all this, he was so angry that he smashed more than a dozen vases. Of course, he was not angry with the people for scolding him, but angry that the aristocratic family dared to play tricks behind his back, but he had no choice. After all, these They are all families outside his territory.
"These self-righteous bastards think that by ruining the reputation of the Zajia family, they can attack the Zajia family? But they don't know that the Zajia family doesn't care about these infamy."
Dong Zhuo, who had a cold face, his eyes full of murderous intent, said coldly: "History is written by the victors. As long as the Za family can dominate the world, in the future the world will only remember the good of the Za family, and who will remember it?" These."
Does Dong Zhuo really not care about the reputation? Of course I care, otherwise how could I be so angry?
The reason why Dong Zhuo said this was just to find a way out for himself. Now he also regretted in his heart that he had gone against the noble family in order to benefit the people.
Although Dong Zhuo's purpose of implementing the New Deal was not for the people, the people still benefited after all. However, it was the people who scolded him the most, which reminded Dong Zhuo of Zhang Jiao again.
Zhang Jiao was one of the few people whom Dong Zhuo admired. This old man had been fighting for the interests of the people all his life, but in the end he was pushed away by the people standing behind him, and he ended up with a lasting infamy.
Could it be that the Zajia family's ending will be the same as Zhang Jiao's?
No, never.
Zhang Jiao will fail because he is too hypocritical and benevolent.
Zajia is not Zhang Jiao and will never make the same mistake he made.
At this thought, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but feel suddenly enlightened. Yes, all those who blocked the path of the Za family had only one way to die.
"My virtuous son-in-law, has the real man behind the scenes been found?"
Although Dong Zhuo's tone was calm, his actual murderous intent was undisguised.
Li Ru also sighed when he saw this. The master's murderous intention was really getting more and more serious.
"It has been found, but this person is..."
Seeing that Li Ru showed hesitation, Dong Zhuo's expression suddenly turned cold and he shouted angrily: "Say."
"The Empress Dowager He is leading this behind the scenes."
Dong Zhuo's pupils suddenly shrank, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "Bitch, although the Zajia can't touch you for the time being, it can make your life... worse than death."
