Chapter 65: The Discussion of Luoyang

Luoyang, the world's heroic city. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Luoyang is not like the pre-Han Dynasty Chang'an fighting and brave spirit is rich and noble, climb the north and rely on the big river, the White Horse Temple is still prosperous, peaceful and optimistic, and Luo, Yi two water at the turn of the water, for the east capital Luoyang.

The towering four beasts in the towering city of Wuzhang Tower, the Zhumen is longitudinal and connected, the fragrance strikes people, and the mansions of the dignitaries and nobles are countless in the city. Not to mention, the north and south palaces in the middle of the crouching tiger.

Under the blazing sun, it is a good time of year.

Everything in Luoyang seems to be different from the various states in the world. The people here are accustomed to accepting everything quickly, the people in the city are adjacent to the imperial city, and they know any news a little faster than others, and even if they take off their shoes and go to bed in a small wine shop before and after dinner, they are not pawn dealers, or they are the children of the temple.

It is precisely because of this speed that the people of Luoyang remember it better than anyone else, and they forget it faster than anyone else.

For example, the news that the general He Jin was killed by eunuchs, and then the scholars led by Yuan Shu set fire to the imperial palace, or that the Yellow River broke in June and flooded several counties in Hongnong County, is now outdated after just three months.

Now people are talking about Dong Zhongying leading the army into Beijing, and the bold and brave Liangzhou soldiers came from the west to enter the camp four or five days in a row, and used the soldiers to coerce He Miao's old troops to merge into the Western Liang Army. In an instant, he instructed Sima Lu Fengxianyin, the army of the state department, to kill Jin Wu Ding Jianyang and annex the state. The soldiers and horses in Luozhong were in danger, and the remaining captains of the Xiyuan Army set up by the first emperor also defected bravely with stragglers, and for a time Dong Zhongying, a contemptible man in the border state, became the most powerful general in the imperial capital.

For many years, no foreign general has been so arrogant and domineering in Beijing.

Now Luoyang City is full of groups of Xiliang troops who are still wearing fur jackets and shirtless under the scorching sun, like a group of birds and beasts that come out of the wilderness, the Qiang species with high eyebrows and deep eyes, and the Tu Gehu with big noses and collapsed beams, or those Liangzhou Han'er who were born in the Liangzhou family of the six counties, each hair bun is also braided, and the left side of the hair is not like the Central Plains. Destroying the market and defiling people's innocence, nothing has happened in the past three months.

The military discipline of the Liangzhou soldiers is much worse than the Xingyang thief who was killed by He Miao half a year ago.

It's just a bunch of beasts.

If the Xiliang army is a beast, it makes the people fearful...... Dong Zhongying, who led the beast to eat people, what does it look like in people's hearts?

"Shhhh That bastard bastard! ”

Xianyang Garden, located in the west of Luoyang City, is next to the former site of Shanglin Garden in the early Han Dynasty. This used to be Xianyang Palace, one of the huge palace complexes west of Luoyang, but now it is now the imperial court's Sikong, so the former general Dong Zhuo's camp.

More than 10,000 Xiliang soldiers scattered various departments, and outside the palace, the people and horses of the state, the old army of Xiyuan, and the huge military village and military array surrounded the road from here to Luoyang. Not only is it Xianyang Palace, now whether it is the captain of Luoyang City or the guard of the North and South Palaces, they are all afraid of Dong Zhuo's power and loyal to him, and now the life and death of the entire court are decided by Dong Zhongying.

"Yuan Benchu, this son of a bitch, dared to draw a sword from someone Dong! What is he, if it weren't for the face of his ancestors, Lao Tzu would have chopped him! ”

In the palace, Dong Zhuo, who was the third duke, kicked off his shoes angrily, took off his court clothes to reveal his majestic chest and slightly fat belly, and sat on the edge of the couch with a golden knife, and the sweat on his body flowed down, staring at his eyes and cursing to himself.

Five days ago, the imperial court envoy paid homage to the former general Dong Zhuo as one of the three princes in Xianyang Garden, and today, Dong Zhuo also convened a hundred officials in Xianyang Garden, among which he asked the second emperor Huan Ling, wanting to make a statement with the hundred officials and depose the emperor.

"My lord is cautious, after all, you are the former official of the Yuan family, how can you kill Yuan Benchu?" At this time, the only person who can get close to Dong Zhuo is his son-in-law, Li Ru and Li Xiaoru. Li Runian was thirty years old, with square eyebrows and a slender body, he was wearing the common leather ring iron armor of Liangzhou soldiers, and there were feathers on his shoulders, and he said to Dong Zhuo respectfully: "The Yuan family is just reluctant to be famous, if he is not afraid in his heart...... The son-in-law did not believe it. ”

Dong Zhuo wiped his sweat under the service of the maidservant, and when he heard Li Ru's first half of the sentence staring coldly at his body, he clenched his teeth under his collapsed nose as if he was a beast that chose people to devour, but when he heard the back, he suddenly raised his head and laughed, pointing at Li Ru This soothed his mood and said loudly: "What you said is right, filial piety, can you see today, a group of chickens and dog thieves in the court, in front of the old man, they are all scared and urinated, where has the majesty of the past gone, ah?" ”

"It's such a big deal, a group of two thousand stone nests don't dare to speak, and finally called Yuan Benchu and a junior to discuss the advantages and disadvantages with Nai Weng!" Dong Zhuo said, and his big hand slapped on the maid's plump buttocks, which frightened the twenty-eight-year-old Xianyang Palace maid to kneel on the ground and tremble like chaff, and couldn't help but say in annoyance: "You are so afraid, Dong will not kill you...... Go, let someone add some ice to the wall, it's hot. Xiaoru, look at you, it's only been three months, and the old man has been fat out of his belly for ten years, damn it, the old man of the Yuan family! ”

Dong Zhuo wiped the sweat on his stomach, glanced at the outside of the palace with a bitter face, and somehow the appearance of Yuan Shao when he drew his sword to himself appeared in his mind, and the anger that had just been extinguished rushed to the top of his head again, and he couldn't help but scold angrily: "Even if the old man is an old official, he is also Duan Jiming's old official, what does he care about Yuan Kui?" The old man only worked as a subordinate in the Yuan Mansion for two months, and then he was transferred to Yulin, and then fought more than 100 battles at the border pass...... The old man has today, and he is all killed by swords and spears, how can he Yuan help a penny? ”

"Oh, look at how this is so angry again." Even Li Ru, who has been with him for nearly ten years, is extremely helpless against Dong Zhuo's temperament of pouring oil on dry firewood, and hurriedly said: "What kind of anger are you fighting with such a vertical man, the Minister of the Manchu Dynasty is not bowing down to you." With tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in your hands, what do you have to be angry about? ”

What Li Ru said was very touching, Dong Zhuo was silent for a moment, he thought that his father-in-law had listened to it, but in an instant, Dong Zhuo patted his thigh and said very seriously: "No!" The old man still thinks that King Chen Liuwang is good, and he is not afraid of the old man, this is the emperor's spirit! He Tuzili's Nashi Hou has a ridiculous appearance with his dead emperor's father...... How could the imperial court set up such an emperor! ”

"The first emperor was mediocre and killed Duan Jiming. If there is another mediocre emperor, it will be the old man who will be killed. Dong is majestic, he can't let him be harmed! Dong Zhuo looked at the ever-bright lantern hanging on the ceiling of the palace, and suddenly turned his head to look at Li Ru and said: "You come up with a way for the old man, you must make Dong Hou the emperor, this emperor ...... Let's get rid of him! ”

The abolition of the emperor seems to be just, in Dong Zhuo's mouth, it is so easy to think of a way.

"It's difficult, if you want to abolish the emperor, you have to make the emperor make a mistake first, and only then can you open a dynasty and abolish it. The son-in-law doesn't say that he disagrees, in the eyes of Confucianism, there are benefits and harms in abolishing the establishment...... It's not big, as long as it's not you who pick it up. Li Ru smiled and loosened his neck armor, and then said: "First, it can help the authority of the elders and deter the court from being small; Second, the Empress Dowager Dong is dead, Dong Hou has no foreign aid in the court, if Dong Hou is the emperor, you are his relatives, and he is his reliance in the court. Dong Hou is young, Ah Bai is not big, and when he marries the emperor, he will be able to serve the world as his stepmother, and adults may not have the power of Liang and Dou......"

"Fart!" The more Li Ru spoke, the more energetic he became, and before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Dong Zhuo's scolding, only to hear his father-in-law say angrily: "It's okay to abolish the emperor, don't make up your mind with Abai, the old man is powerful in the world, and he doesn't need to use his granddaughter to seek power!" ”

Dong Zhuo's son died in the Liangzhou Rebellion a few years ago, leaving only this one granddaughter behind, which made his heart flesh. Li Ru couldn't help but plan at all, so he waved his hand impatiently and said: "Don't say so much, just tell the old man, how to waste, how to stand!" ”

Li Ru was choked by his father-in-law, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to clench his fists and said: "Command Zhou Yu, Wu Qiong and other scholars to let them go up to the court to abolish the stand, you just need to watch...... It's a matter of infamy, and we don't have to come out. Didn't they swear allegiance to you, and told them to do it! ”

"It's not appropriate, people are attached to me, how can I harm them. Only the old man can say this matter, so you will draw up a book case for the old man to memorize, and then discuss it with the old dogs in the court. Dong Zhuo shook twice, his expression was not good, and he suddenly remembered something and asked Li Ru: "Xiaoru, that Cai Bojiao, has you been drafted into the court?" ”

Speaking of Cai Yong, Li Ru smiled on his face and replied: "After entering the court, you finally sent the letter that said 'I can be a clansman', scaring Mr. Cai. ”

"Hmph, it's good to come, call Cai Bojiao to Xianyang Yuan another day, the old man wants to see this stubborn old man...... was exiled for twelve years, and the old man had to recruit him three times! Don't let him make sacrificial wine, serve the imperial history full-time, tomorrow he will be promoted to the imperial history, and the day after tomorrow he will directly let him lead the Shangshutai to be a scholar! How can such a great sage be left unused! ”

"No!" Li Ru gave up, these cronies of them have long known Dong Zhuo's views on the court officials, and they have recruited a group of sages in the opposition to come to the court for promotion, and these chickens and dogs and thieves in the court have been put outside, as for their cronies from Liangzhou, they don't have to be three princes and nine secretaries, they firmly hold the military power! It's just that Li Ru still felt that it was inappropriate, and said, "My lord, do you really plan to abolish it yourself?" With all due respect, if you have the prestige of abolishing the throne, it is better to be comfortable to be the emperor yourself. ”

Anyway, there are arrogant soldiers from Liangzhou guarding them, and it is not a matter of words to be the emperor or not?

"To be an emperor? The old man doesn't even have a son, why is he the emperor? Dong Zhuo sneered with his fat hand: "The old man is over half a hundred years old, who will succeed him after a hundred years?" Is it your successor, or is it Niu Fuzi's successor? Come on, life is alive, it is enough to hold the authority for a lifetime, the old man does not be the emperor, and the emperor works hard. It's better for the old man to set up a virtuous emperor, and return to the loess in the future, and others can also read ......"

At this moment, through the triple palace wall, the Liangzhou man with a saber on his shoulder ran over and shouted: "Report to Dong Gong, Yuan Benchu went to the east gate and fled all the way north!" ”
