Seeing that Dong Zhuo's face was different, Li Ru naturally knew what he was thinking, so he didn't care about Dong Zhuo's anger.

However, Li Ru still did not give up his original intention, and persuaded him bitterly: "Xiangguo, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, thousands of years of achievements, compared with a woman, which is more important!" If you lose Lu Bu's allegiance because of Diao Chan, it will be a sacrifice of the basics, and the gains outweigh the losses! In the future, even if Xiangguo ascends to the throne, who can conquer the Quartet for Xiangguo, and who will have Lu Bu who is so brave and good at fighting? ”

Dong Zhuo couldn't help but show a smug smile when he heard this, and said, "Wen Youyan is exaggerated. Even if our family doesn't have Lu Bu's help, isn't there still a virtuous son-in-law, Li Li? Li Li has a lot of brave and fierce generals, and since he led the troops to fight, he has won all battles and won invincible, far better than Lu Buduo! ”

"This 、、、、、、。" When Li Ru heard this, he was speechless.

Indeed, the strength of Li Li in Liangzhou is far superior to that of Lu Bu. In terms of personal ability alone, Li Li is the capital of the world's heroes in terms of open-mindedness and martial arts. Yes, Li Li is a hero, not just a brave and warlike general.

Li Ru has long seen this through his recent contact with Li Li. It's just that he was hesitant to tell Dong Zhuo at this time, and this was the direct reason why he deliberately ignored Li Li just now.

Speaking from the heart, Li Ru thinks that he has a very good relationship with Li Li, and he is also a descendant of the Li family, and now he is a brother-in-law. With affection and reason, he should not make irresponsible remarks about Li Li in front of Dong Zhuo, let alone tell Dong Zhuo that Li Li has great ambitions and is definitely not a thing in the pool. In doing so, he could not escape the suspicion of provoking, and he would even be mistaken by Dong Zhuo for jealousy and jealousy, and wantonly slandered Li Li, his brother-in-law.

However, Li Ru has pinned all his efforts on Dong Zhuo for more than ten years, and he sees that the great cause can be accomplished. How could he hide anything from Dong Zhuo. Moreover, Dong Zhuo has always treated him very kindly, cultivated him many times, regarded him as a confidant, and married his daughter to him, which can be described as deep as the sea.

After weighing it repeatedly, Li Ru still decided to report it according to the truth, so as to dispel Dong Zhuo's idea of relying on Li Li. But seeing that he said to Dong Zhuo respectfully: "Since Xiangguo mentioned Li Li, there are some things that have been hidden in Weichen's heart for a long time and have to be said." Wu Wei Li Li. Although he is a general under Xiangguo, and now he is Xiangguo's beloved son-in-law, he and Lu Bu are categorically incomparable.

Lu Buqi is a man who is brave and brave, and his martial arts are the best in the world. arrogant and arrogant; But. But he was a man of courage and no strategy. Seeking fame and fortune, but greedy and excessive. This kind of person is brave, but not afraid, and he is also very easy to control, as long as Xiangguo has what he expects in his hands, he will be driven by it.

But. Wuwei Li Li is not. Li Liqi is tenacious, scheming, strategic, and eclectic. bold and careful; It is not an exaggeration to say that he is eloquent, magnanimous and elegant, and swallows mountains and rivers. In just one year, he had tens of thousands of troops, and he was in Liangzhou, with many strategists and generals under his command. It is not difficult to see from this that this son is by no means a thing in the pool, let alone a person who has lived under the people for a long time. If Xiangguo wants him to lead the army to fight, it is naturally not difficult to sweep the world, and even his record will far surpass that of Lu Bu, and he will be able to dominate the world within ten years. But Weichen is worried that Xiangguo will reuse Li Li, and Zuihou is afraid that the tail will not be big and the tiger will not be able to drive away, but it will be a problem to raise tigers, so that he will eventually be injured by the tiger, and he will regret it. At present, although Li Li has elite soldiers and strong generals, he is in a corner after all, with a narrow vision, and Han Sui, Ma Teng and other princes are hindered, so it is difficult to achieve great things. However, once Li Li jumped out of the Liangzhou cage and led the army to Chang'an, it was a tiger descending from the mountain, unstoppable, and out of control. Since then, it is not yet known who belongs to Chang'an City!

If there is chaos today, the heroes rise together, people's hearts are unpredictable, and it is difficult to distinguish between loyalty and treachery. What Weichen said is just his own speculation, and how to choose needs to be carefully considered by Xiangguo. ”

Li Ru's words were very thorough, which made Dong Zhuo frown and ponder for a long time, and the expression on his face was cloudy and unpredictable.

After pondering for a while, Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that Wen You is very optimistic about Li Li, you two brothers-in-law are one scholar and one martial arts, if you can be loyal to our family, they complement each other, and the civil and military are combined, and our family's great cause will inevitably be accomplished, and the world will be dominant." It's a pity that our family can get your best assistance, but we can't get Li Li's loyal service. After all, he was not supported by our family, and even if he is loyal to our family, our family may not be able to trust him. It's hard to do both, so let's take one step at a time. ”

Li Ru saw that Dong Zhuo had been pondering for so long but said something inexplicable, and suddenly had a kind of realization in his heart. He knew that Dong Zhuo did not fail to see that Li Li was ambitious, and he was by no means a person who was subordinate to others, on the contrary, Dong Zhuo had a deep understanding of Li Li for a long time, and even secretly thought about how to win over Li Li. How could Li Li be too assertive, act without leakage, and don't give Dong Zhuo any chance to beat him at all, thus putting an end to Dong Zhuo's envy method of beating him first and then rewarding him. Since then, as long as Li Li does not take the initiative to rebel, Dong Zhuo has nothing to do with him, not far or close, and always maintains a distance, further can rely on Dong Zhuo, and take a step back to support the army and stand on his own.

This is the most difficult thing for Li Li to subdue, and it is also the most clever place. He leaves room for everything he does, leaving a staircase for others to go down, and also leaving enough room for himself to advance and retreat. However, once he leaves no room for victory, it must be in his hands, and he has the confidence and strength to destroy the opponent in one fell swoop, so that he will let go and kill everything, leaving no room for victory.

In addition, the relationship between Li Li and Li Dao is very vague, or ambiguous, sometimes close and sometimes estranged, making it difficult to see what tricks they are playing. It is precisely because of this uncertainty that the Xiliang army, from Dong Zhuo to the generals in the army, are suspicious of their uncle and nephew, and they dare not be enemies with them, nor will they get too close to them.

In this way, even Dong Zhuo used and guarded against Li Dao and Li Li, and always retained a sense of vigilance. At the same time, even if the Li family's uncle and nephew made mistakes, Dong Zhuo couldn't do anything to them, let alone punish them, so he could only pretend not to know, not to care, and not to ask about the crime.

After sorting out his thoughts, Li Ru suddenly found that he was still blinded by Li Li's kind and humble appearance, which was far less thorough than Dong Zhuo's understanding of Li Li. From this, he couldn't help but think that although Dong Zhuo was old, his open-mindedness was becoming more and more unfathomable. Dong Zhuo himself did not understand many things, nor was he stupid and incompetent, but he deliberately connived with one eye and one eye closed. Laissez-faire has the meaning of doing nothing.

Thinking of this inexplicably, Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo with a shocked face, wanting to ask, but he didn't know where to start.

Since Dong Zhuo knows the situation better than anyone else, he still wants to do this?

weishenme？

Suddenly, Li Ru's face was full of grief and despair, and his eyes were full of questions and questions when he looked at Dong Zhuo. His lifelong wish is to assist Dong Zhuo in establishing immortal feats, winning the world, and leaving his name in history. However. Dong Zhuo has a kind of decadence and inaction in the twilight of the tiger, allowing the situation to be scattered and decaying, and only caring about enjoying himself, and nothing else.

At this moment, Li Ru was disappointed in his heart. It's despair.

Suddenly, I heard Dong Zhuo say with a gloomy expression: "Our family has no children under our knees." There is no one among the children of the Dong family who can be entrusted with big things. Now that all four daughters of our family are married, our family has nothing to worry about, and we are alone. In this life, in just dozens of cold and summer, what you want to fight for and what you want to get. What others want but can't get, our family has it, and what is not satisfied. Just do one thing and ascend the throne as emperor. Standing high in the ninety-five, so far our family's long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, and there is nothing to ask for. Lu Bu is unruly, capricious, and seeks fame and fortune, but he is the righteous son of our family after all, and he can be regarded as the only son of my Dong Zhuo. Give him everything our family can give him; If he can't give it, it's useless even if he thinks about it, unless he dares to kill his father and the king! Diao Chan is the lifeblood of our family, and our family is willing to give him any official position and gold and silver, but Diao Chan cannot give it to him. Tomorrow, our family will entitle Lu Bu as a general, commanding the world's soldiers and horses, one person under ten thousand people, I believe he will be satisfied. ”

Li Ru had nothing to say at this time, nodded with a blank expression, and was speechless.

Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru's expression and sighed softly, then got up and walked to the backyard. When he was approaching the door, he suddenly stopped, turned his head and said to Li Ru: "After a hundred years of our family, Wen You can choose between Lu Bu and Li Li to assist. But we think you should choose Li Li, because he is the one who will achieve great things! ”

After speaking, Dong Zhuo walked to the backyard again, his steps seemed very light, his stride was staggering, and his bloated figure showed a hint of depression very abruptly.

"Liley?" Li Ru groaned and watched Dong Zhuo's back leave, and whispered to himself: "The little son-in-law takes the order." Then he strode out of the lobby and walked towards the door with a grim expression.

————————————————

The backyard of the Taishi's Mansion.

After Dong Zhuo finished talking to Li Ru, he sat alone in the study for an afternoon. It wasn't until night fell that he got up and left the study, rubbing his cheeks vigorously with both hands, and then the expression on his face suddenly changed, and he resumed his smiling expression, his expression was flamboyant, and his eyes were staring at the world.

Suddenly, Dong Zhuo was still well-known Dong Zhuo, and the conversation with Li Ru in the morning seemed to have no effect on him.

"Diao Chan, see what this is? Hehehe! As soon as he walked into the dormitory, Dong Zhuo took out the edict of the little emperor Liu Xie and put it in front of Diao Chan, and said with a smug smile.

"Ah, this is Bixia's edict! Uh, how can this be, Bixia counts her own guilt, how can there be such a holy decree since ancient times? Diao Chan said in great surprise.

Dong Zhuo smiled and handed the holy decree to Diao Chan's hand, hugged Diao Chan's slender waist, and said with a smile: "This was sent by your father in the morning." He called this edict the edict of sin, which means that the little emperor feels that he is not worthy of commanding the world, and he wants to be virtuous! Haha! ”

Hearing this, a hint of understanding flashed in Diao Chan's eyes, and then he asked with a blank expression: "Bixia is young and has no brothers so far, who else can he give up the throne to Zen?" Could it be 、、、、、、 Xiangguo? ”

"Haha!" Dong Zhuo said happily: "The beauty is really a smart and well-behaved person, and she can guess it." When our family becomes the emperor, the beauty is a veritable concubine! hahaha、、、、、、"

"Concubine, thank you Xiangguo, uh, bixia for your love!" Diao Chan smiled infinitely and bowed to the courtesy.

Diao Chan's charming and natural smiling face made Dong Zhuo's expression shocked, a dull color suddenly appeared on his face, his eyes were confused, his brows trembled violently, and the wrinkles on his forehead were inexplicably prominent.

After being stunned for a long time, Dong Zhuo suddenly said, "Okay, good!" Can Pomeranians smile, our family is determined to be the throne, ascend the throne as the emperor, and reign over the world! Haha———" (To be continued) (To be continued......
