The autumn night is slightly cool, and the full moon is in the sky. Mrs. Guo's death was not deliberately concealed, and soon spread to Luoyang.
The former General's Mansion has now become Dong Zhuo's property. The people and things in the mansion have almost remained unchanged. The only difference is that now there are music and music in the mansion almost every night, and the majesty and solemnity of the General's Mansion have disappeared.
One good thing about Dong Zhuo is his loyalty. In order to make his younger brothers happy, he did not hesitate to ruin his reputation and allowed his men to wreak havoc in the city for three days and three nights.
I don't know how many good women were brutally murdered in Luoyang City. If there was not a trace of sanity left, I'm afraid these people would offend all the nobles in the capital to death... You know, Dong Zhuo treated all the concubines in the harem as playthings, and he himself even He was targeting Queen He, so one can imagine how arrogant his subordinates were.
This is also the main reason why many people think that Dong Zhuo is lecherous. After all, people of the same species flock together and birds of a feather flock together.
In fact, Dong Feifei was fine, but he was too indulgent to his subordinates.
"Mr. Lu, Dong respects your knowledge, but Dong is very puzzled as to why all the disciples under your command are cats and dogs?" On the first seat, Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Bei who was standing behind Lu Zhi leisurely. .
This was not the first time Dong Zhuo had met Liu Bei. As early as when he was fighting against the Yellow Turban rebels in the land of Youji, Dong Zhuo had met the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang.
At that time, Dong Zhuo was besieged by a group of strong soldiers, but it was Liu, Guan, and Zhang who rushed in and saved Dong Zhuo's life. At that time, Dong Zhuo thought that Liu, Guan, and Zhang were some kind of heroes and wanted to make friends with them, but he learned that the three of them had nothing to do with them. After heeling, his expression immediately changed.
Yes, Dong Zhuo is such a realistic person. He can treat the sinful Cai Yong with courtesy, he can be friendly with the eunuch Cao Ah Man, and he even puts down his dignity to ask to see Wei Cheng, but he has no good impressions of ordinary people. .
He is righteous to others, but he also depends on who the other person is. Lu Zhi, who was sitting at the bottom, suddenly turned gloomy. No matter what, Liu Bei was still his student. Dong Zhuo belittling his student in front of him was no different from slapping him in the face.
Lu Zhi knew that Dong Zhuo was still angry about what happened a few days ago, when Dong Zhuo proposed deposing the young emperor Liu Bian and making Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, the emperor.
Lu Zhi scolded Dong Zhuo very shamelessly, and there was a gap between the two. Originally, Lu Zhi didn't want to bring Liu Bei to see Dong Zhuo, but he couldn't stand Liu Bei's sharp tongue. After being deceived, he accepted Liu Bei's request and took him to visit Dong Zhuo.
"Zhongying, I'm here today not to have a quarrel with you. Why don't you just ignore the Baibo Army in Hedong, which is raging?" Lu Zhi looked directly at Dong Zhuo, not taking Dong Zhuo's attitude seriously at all. Instead, he directly explained his intention.
The expression on Dong Zhuo's face was a bit frivolous, and he said with a sneer: "It's hard for Guo Tai and his like to become grand after all. I have received reliable information that this guy is dead. Twenty thousand troops and horses attacked Anyi, and were finally counterattacked by the Wei family." Kill, hahaha." Lu Zhi frowned slightly and gestured to Liu Bei who was standing behind him. Upon seeing this, Liu Bei stepped forward and took out an urgent document from his arms. He whispered softly: "General, you have What I don’t know is that just three days ago, Mr. Wei sent an urgent message, which clearly stated that nearly 100,000 Baibo troops were assembled in Hongnong. General, please take a look."
"What?" Dong Zhuo's face changed drastically. After being stunned for a moment, he frowned and said, "Who is the Young Master Wei you just mentioned?" Liu Bei raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and after a flash, he cupped his hands and said, "Young Master Wei, Wei Cheng, Wei Zhongdao ."
"What, is it a letter from Brother Zhongdao?" Dong Zhuo stood up suddenly, ran down from the stage, almost grabbed the urgent letter from Liu Bei's hand, and then said reproachfully: "You Xuande, you are so important. Why are you talking about it now?" Liu Bei frowned and said in a deep voice: "General Mingjian, as early as ten days ago, so-and-so asked to see the general, but the general was busy with official duties, so he was stopped at the door. If not I beg you so much, Mr. Yu... Haha." The last sneer was a slap in the face.
Dong Zhuo suddenly remembered that he was having fun with the beauty and vaguely heard someone reporting it. However, when he heard about Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, he didn't take it seriously and had Liu Bei blasted away.
With an embarrassed laugh, Dong Zhuo opened the letter. After reading it for a while, his expression changed drastically. He muttered along with the content: "Hedong has 70% of the grain. What exactly is this White Wave Army? How is this possible? One hundred thousand White Wave Army is marching towards Luoyang." Coming?" Liu Bei cupped his hands and said, "If the general doesn't believe it, you can send someone to find out immediately. What is said in this letter is absolutely true, and Mr. Wei will not fool the general with such a thing. After all, it is so close. With a hundred thousand troops crossing the river, there must be a lot of movement."
"Of course I believe Brother Zhongdao's letter." Dong Zhuo's face was terrifyingly gloomy. He turned back to look at Lu Zhi and asked, "Who is Hongnong Yin?" Lu Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then said with understanding: " Yuan Ang." A stern look flashed in Dong Zhuo's eyes, and he walked back to the table and sat down fiercely: "This thief deserves to be punished. One hundred thousand rebels have entered Hongnong's territory. It is impossible that he has not received the slightest news, but not only has he not asked for help, , and did not send anyone to inform... Huh, Yuan Ang is also from the Yuan family in Runan, right?" Lu Zhi nodded. This time he also realized the seriousness of the matter, because in the past two days, Luoyang Almost all the people in the city who belonged to the Yuan family in Runan left for various reasons.
Now it seems that they have premeditated and acted in unison. Dong Zhuo no longer cared about whether there was any estrangement between him and Lu Zhi. He put the letter on the table, raised his head and said, "Mr. Lu, the trouble is serious. That thief Yuan Jiujiu took advantage of the chaos to burn down Gongwei on purpose. I think he did it intentionally. Now The new establishment of the capital is not yet stable, and there are internal and external troubles. You and I should be the same enemy." Lu Zhi's eyelids twitched and he secretly thought, why is this guy so thick-skinned? He was acting weird with me just now, but now he is in trouble, immediately Just share the same hatred?
Although he felt a little unhappy, Lu Zhi still nodded and said: "Don't worry Zhongying, I will certainly have something to say about the matter of eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor tomorrow. However, before that, I suggest you send someone to find out more about it." That's right, you can't just listen to partial beliefs." Dong Zhuo heard this, nodded heavily, clasped his fists and said: "Mr. Lu is right, I will send someone to Hongnong right now. If the Yuan family really wants to rebel, I will definitely I won't make it easy for them, hum!" As he said that, he looked at Liu Bei who was silent, rolled his eyes, and said, "Are Xuande and Zhongdao familiar with each other?" Liu Bei raised his eyebrows and cupped his fists in reply: " Now I am a guest of the Young Master’s family.”
"Oh!" A hint of surprise flashed in Dong Zhuo's eyes. He stood up, took Liu Bei's hands, and said enthusiastically: "In that case, it seems that Dong has neglected himself. Come on, come on, Xuande will sit down and talk... ...Come here, bring some food and wine, I want to have a drink with Brother Xuande."
