When Zhang Zhang said these words, he felt so happy, as if he was a member of the family of two thousand stones in this generation.
Rather than relying on heresy to get in front of He Jin!
However, although Zhang Zhang's words were a bit loud, Wu Kuang on the side still knew how to make up for him, so... he coughed lightly and continued to speak to Zhao Rong.
"Captain Zhao, don't look at Dong Zhongying as a powerful person now, but in our eyes, he is just a wild dog!
Of course, this is not nonsense from a certain family. Although Wu is not from a wealthy family.
But having been in the capital for a long time, I was somewhat well-informed about this news. I had also heard of the name Dong Zhongying back then.
Do you know how he came to be the governor of Bingzhou? "
"This..." After Zhao Rong heard this, he knew there must be some reason.
However, first of all, Zhao Rong had not heard of this matter, and secondly, he also wanted to give Wu Kuang some face, so he chuckled at Wu Kuang.
"A certain family heard that Dong Zhongying was very brave and was known as the warrior of Liangzhou. He also heard that he was good at using bows and crossbows. He fired the bow from left to right without missing a beat. I guess it was because of his bravery in battle..."
Before Zhao Rong could finish his words, Zhang Zhang and Wu Kuang on the side burst into laughter again. The laughter once again interrupted the words of Zhao Rong, who was also the captain of the capital.
"My Brother Zhao, you are really... quite... quite... hahahaha...
Since when has my promotion to official position depended on these things?
Although this is a bit unpleasant to say, don’t you understand the truth behind it, Brother Zhao?
You are just hearing this, Dong Zhongying is a capable person.
Someone will tell you that Dong Zhongying had some merits while following General Zhang Huan, but his rise to power had nothing to do with it!
This guy got his official position by bribing the ministers of the court, and the person he bribed was not a certain important minister of the court.
This guy was a lowly man from Liangzhou, and the officials in the court looked down upon him, and no one wanted to pay attention to him, so he had no choice but to seek medical treatment in a hurry.
It is said that among the many powerful and important ministers in our capital, and even some newly wealthy ministers, there is no one whom Dong Zhongying does not bribe.
It's just that we, the incorruptible ones, disdain to collude with rebellious officials and traitors like them, so we have no choice but to hang out with him.
However, the eunuchs Zhang Rang and Dong Zhongying sent him more than ten boxes of gold, pearls and jade articles one after another, and none of Zhao Zhong and others were left behind.
The same is true for Cao Song, the eunuch who was one of the eunuchs and rebels.
It is said that during this period, the Yuan family was in cahoots with those eunuchs, and he used this to get attached to Situ Yuan Wei, and even to the general, he paid heavily.
Although the general disliked this person, he gave him a chance to meet because the Yuan family wanted to make peace with him.
Back then, in order to gain entrance to the General's Gate, he flattered a servant in front of the mansion, bowing his head and bending like a wild dog, wagging his tail and begging for mercy. It was ridiculous.
At that time, he was a laughing stock in our city of Luoyang! "
Zhang Zhang on the side was also smiling from ear to ear at this time. After Wu Kuang finished speaking, he immediately added.
"To be honest with you, the general knows a little about him.
It was not the first time that Dong Zhongying came to the capital to seek a way out.
It is said that... back then, he wanted to send gifts to his old general, General Zhang Huan, one of the Three Mings of Liangzhou, to plead for mercy, hoping that General Zhang Huan would give him a way out.
But Dong Zhuo underestimated General Zhang's virtue.
The things that had been taken over had not yet cooled down, but they were thrown out directly by General Zhang Huan, and all those things finally hit him, Dong Zhuo, in the face.
From then on, Dong Zhuo no longer dared to claim to the outside world that he was a general under the old general Zhang Huan, and his biggest reliance had disappeared.
You know the character of old General Zhang Huan, right? The reputation of Liangzhou Sanming is not small.
The fact that he was treated like this by the old general Zhang Huan showed that Dong Zhuo had a despicable character. "
After finishing speaking, Zhang Zhang and Wu Kuang laughed again, and their smiles seemed to attract others, who also laughed with them.
Zhao Rong, who seemed a little cautious before, now completely let go of his worries when he heard these things and laughed loudly.
The smile seemed to be even more excited than that of Zhang Zhang and Wu Kuang.
After all, he had just listened to this, and Zhao Rong finally understood.
A person like Dong Zhuo is truly worthy of being called a wild dog.
The so-called good family in the six counties is just a person with no family background. There are generals in the northwest, but those are all a long time ago.
Among the northwest generals, his Dong family was obviously not among them.
So what if he is angry with himself today?
Dong Zhuo didn't dare to do anything to himself, for no other reason. Such people didn't dare to bet on their future, and they also knew very well that no one would help them if they offended others.
The most important thing is because he, Dong Zhuo, dare not offend the general behind them!
Even if their affairs today have nothing to do with the general, what they represent when they go out is the face of the general He Jin.
If they were "incorruptible and honest" and refused to accept Dong Zhuo's flattery and bribery banquets because of such trivial matters, they would be bullied by Dong Zhuo with the help of his power.
The general's face was completely lost. Dong Zhuo just bribed Zhang Rang and others.
He was the biological son of Zhang Rang, the gelding, who had done such a thing, and he had to die here today!
After letting go of their worries, everyone's mood became more relaxed. Everyone exchanged cups and cups again, and seemed really happy.
And they don't know... maybe they know, but they don't care.
At this time, just outside their tent, Dong Zhuo, who had blocked the soldiers from communicating, was looking gloomily at the tent in front of him and the guards with malicious faces.
At this moment, his face kept trembling, his fists were clenched but he did not dare to rush in and shout angrily. In the end, he could only stand outside the tent with a bit of desolation.
At the same time, there was also a rather majestic northwest man standing behind him, wearing simple but not crude armor.
Standing behind Dong Zhuo with a face full of anger, it seemed that if the anger on his face could turn into flames, it would probably ignite the entire camp.
And this person was none other than Dong Zhongying's confidant Hu Zhen, a brave man who followed Dong Zhongying from the northwest to the Central Plains.
He is not the bravest person in Dong Zhuo's army, but he is definitely one of the most loyal people in his army.
At this time, Hu Zhen was still holding two jars of fine Yongliang wine in his arms. Dong Zhuo had seen it many times and was reluctant to drink it, and he was not willing to let them drink the fine Yongliang wine.
Yongliang is short of rice and food, food is as expensive as weapons, and Liangzhou's wine is more expensive than weapons!
Dong Zhuo is willing to bring out the fine wine today so that they can appreciate the customs of the northwest again.
Not only that, Hu Zhen today was also carrying gifts prepared by Dong Zhuo for Wu Kuang, Zhang Zhang and Zhao Rong.
That was a gift he had specially prepared after he was promoted to General Dong Zhonglang and found out which generals there were in the army.
He had prepared it carefully. He originally wanted to give it to them during the banquet, but in the end he could only get it here in person, preparing to lower his head again.
This was a decision Dong Zhuo made after half an hour, after he finally completely suppressed the anger in his heart and the helplessness that was worse than the anger.
The reason why he wanted to take the initiative to visit again was simply because Dong Zhuo knew his abilities and identity so well.
He knew that he was not qualified to ask for fairness and dignity, so he tried his best to get the relationship between them to ease.
That's all!
But when he came here, outside Colonel Wu Kuang's camp, bringing fine wine and gifts, with his sincerity and cowardice, what he got were these words that chilled him to the extreme.
Dong Zhuo didn't know what he should say, and he didn't know who was right or wrong between him and them.
He wanted to give these generals from the capital a surprise, but he forgot that they were not from the same group in the first place.
Even...Dong Zhongying knew that they were dismissive of him, but he still insisted on coming here.
Perhaps when he made this decision, he should have been mentally prepared, but he just refused to believe it.
Finally, here he heard the words he should have heard.
Unfortunately, it wasn't what he wanted to hear...
