Chapter 119, Severity and Importance
(Actually, the plot of this recent paragraph is different from the outline I set before, and I changed it a little temporarily, so the update is not very fast, Khan!) And then you have to think about how you want to continue, fortunately there is time now, but it's still too late, that's all~)
"The congratulatory gift was delivered?" Dong Zhuo didn't even lift his eyelids, his figure guide zhì he was very sleepy, people's energy is always limited, but to support such a huge body, even if he didn't go through too strenuous exercise, he would easily get tired, so he definitely slept the most in a day, and naturally more when he didn't move much.
This is the partial hall of the Xiangguo Mansion in the north city of Luoyang, the ancient people sit in the north and face the south for the geographical advantage, the largest of the four cities in Luoyang is the north city and the south city, and the status of the north city is higher, in addition to the palace here, the mansion is mostly built for the ministers of the court, the old family of the family, Wang Yun's mansion is actually also here, and it is not too far away from the Xiangguo Mansion, but it is biased to the northeast direction.
Usually, Dong Zhuo usually rests in this side hall, and at the same time he is also receiving guests or listening to the respective notices of his subordinates, which is also a characteristic habit of his.
However, even if Dong Zhuo always closed his eyes slightly, didn't raise his eyelids, and didn't look at him, the little yellow door on the opposite side still responded respectfully: "Qi Xiangguo, it's delivered." ”
"Then Wang Yun accepted it?"
"Yes, I took it." Xiao Huangmen's answer is always very simple, that is also because he has some understanding of Dong Zhuo's character, he is not a person who likes to be robbed, so he only needs to reply to the question, and he doesn't need to say anything else, otherwise it's okay if it's okay, in case he accidentally provokes the other party, he can't eat and walk around, he has seen Dong Zhuo's moodiness from the palace to this Xiangguo Mansion, and there is a stronger and stronger trend.
But there are not just the two of them here, Li Ru is also on the side at this time, of course, he didn't interject when Dong Zhuo asked.
Dong Zhuo then asked a lot of questions, including who were the people at Wang Yun's banquet, whether Wang Yun had opened the gift box, and Wang Yun's appearance at that time, the change in expression, etc., such a small yellow door belonged to the middle and lower levels among the eunuchs, and the eunuchs and palace maids served people in the palace, and they wanted to gradually get up from a low position. It's not that he doubts his ability to observe words and feelings, but like an old fox like Wang Yun, everything may not come out, and everything that comes out may not be true, even if he can observe words and colors, it doesn't mean that he can see through people's sincerity, until finally Dong Zhuo said to the little yellow door: "You go down first......"
After the little yellow door respectfully retreated and the figure disappeared, Dong Zhuocai glanced at Li Ru and asked, "What does Wen You think?" ”
Li Ru shook his head and said, "This Wang Yun is really an old fox, he must have seen through the mystery." ”
Dong Zhuo said: "I deliberately chose a heavier gift box, maybe he thought there was gold in it, but he didn't know?" ”
Li Ru smiled and shook his head, "It's not impossible, but with this Wang Yun's old spiciness, I'm afraid he won't think that his father-in-law is such a vulgar person." This invisibly praised Dong Zhuo, so Dong Zhuo's face became a little brighter, this is also the experience that Li Ru and Dong Zhuo have gotten along for so long, but I don't know whether to say it is his luck or his sadness.
Then Li Ru said: "And don't forget your father-in-law, Feng Xian is also present." ”
Dong Zhuo understood what he meant, these were two different topics from just now, saying that Lu Bu was also the same topic that Li Ru had always mentioned in Dong Zhuo's ears, that is, to be vigilant enough against Lu Bu, although now they are people in the same boat.
In fact, there is no need for Li Ru to say more, Dong Zhuo, who is consumed by the desire for profit, is more and more unable to allow anyone else to challenge his status and authority, and Lu Bu, who has been in infinite glory since the first battle of the Tiger Prison, has also made him quite jealous, but there has been no contradiction yet.
"Actually, no matter what, this Lu Fengxian will still be on our side in a short time, after all, if he leaves his father-in-law, he is nothing now...... Hehe, does my father-in-law know who visited the Confucian Mansion before coming here? Li Ru went to the back and threw out another pass.
Dong Zhuo smiled and asked, "Who?" ”
"Jia Xu."
"Jia Xu?"
"This person is one of the powerful helpers around Lu Fengxian, and what he did was to talk to Confucianism about the trend of Fengxian going to Situ Mansion for a banquet. This person should not be underestimated, and he also mentioned this point, and they all think that cooperation is beneficial to both sides, which is slightly the same as I see. ”
Dong Zhuo just nodded, "I naturally know this, if he doesn't expose his two hearts, I won't do anything to him." ”
"This is not enough, after all, my father-in-law also needs to rely on his strength, and now the external troubles are still there, and there is even a tendency to increase, in comparison, this Fengxian is not enough, and the father-in-law also needs Lu Fengxian's help to deter both inside and outside." Li Ru had to remind emphatically, who can believe Dong Zhuo's current guarantee? He didn't know what about this father-in-law's temper, but he was afraid that Dong Zhuo would become angry, in case he accidentally tore his face with Lu Bu.
Dong Zhuo didn't refute, what Li Ru said was not bad, he could still tell the weight of this, now in his heart, there is no doubt that Yuan Shao in Hebei and Cao Cao in Xuzhou are more threatening, and the hatred should be deeper, if he doesn't get rid of them first, he will not only be unable to eliminate the hatred in his heart, but also have trouble sleeping, compared to Lu Bu, it is indeed nothing, after all, they don't know what Lu Bu is secretly doing now.
On the contrary, Wang Yun, the so-called internal worries in Li Ru's mouth, Dong Zhuo doesn't care, in fact, every qiē is Li Ru's Zhang Luodi, Dong Zhuo still gives him face, he actually doesn't think that Wang Yun will be unfavorable to him, but as Li Ru said, it's better to be careful, after all, the greater the ambition, the greater the fear in his heart, the more afraid he is of losing the current qiē.
……
In Situ's mansion, as time passed, the guests gradually left, and they were just here to be guests, not to live here.
Lu Bu took a closer look at the remaining people here, Xun Shuang is here, Cai Yong is not there, Zhu Jun is not there, just the three people who sat next to him at the banquet are only Xun Shuang's "lone seedling", Wang Cang is also here, which makes Lu Bu a little strange, but it is not strange to think about it, after all, his relationship with Wang Yun and his teacher-student relationship with Cai Yong are actually not conflicting, not to mention that he is also a child of a family, it is normal for him to mix with Wang Yun and them, and he is afraid that he is still a young handsome man who Wang Yun is more optimistic about, Special protection may also be granted at critical times.
In addition, of course, there are Sun Rui, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, Yang Zan of Shangshu, Shi Hehao, the governor of the Xiangguo Mansion who had a conflict with Lu Bu before and was also disgusted by Wang Yun but stayed after all, and Yang Biao, Huang Wan, who had long been abolished by Dong Zhuo and now has only one name but no real power, and of course, there are also people like Kind of Fu.
For Lu Bu, although these people were not the first batch of so-called royalists in the late Han Dynasty, they were definitely the most powerful group, among them not only two of the three princes who lived in the temple, but also many characters whose identity background and ability were not simple at all.
If you look at the standards of the royalists, most of the people here meet them, but they definitely don't meet them, and now they have been branded with the Dong Zhuo faction, which royalist dares to recruit themselves lightly?
What's more, they obviously have a secret meeting now, and they will stay behind, but this is the order of Wang Yun, who has faintly become the leader of it, what does he want to do?
