Chapter 923: Dong Zhuo
"Qi Xiangguo, Qi Your Majesty, General Zhengbei, Pingzhou Mu, Yongning Hou reported that the ministers of Pingzhou should be the domain of His Majesty, and the herdsmen of the Son of Heaven Anbian. Today, there is a barbarian country in the east of Pingzhou called [Lee's Joseon], which is not civilized, does not obey the mandate of heaven, and repeatedly violates the border, disturbing the peace of our Han Dynasty. The general of the conquest of the north, with the responsibility of protecting the territory and the people, does not allow the small people to run rampant, and asks himself to lead the troops to attack him.
However, the people of Pingzhou were weak and financially constrained, so they implored the imperial court to allocate grain, grass, soldiers and horses to help the ministers fight the thieves. Capture his thief chieftain, sacrifice his prisoners to Tianque, and raise His Majesty's heavenly prestige outside the territory! ”
In the splendid hall, two groups of courtiers stand solemnly on both sides, the imperial forest guards are majestic, the courtiers who read out the recital are full of energy, the sound is like a bell, and the hall is full of solemn atmosphere.
It's just that on the dragon chair, His Majesty the Emperor, who is only six years old, has dull and drowsy eyes, and has no spirit and vitality that a young child should have.
Dong Zhuo was dressed in a black court dress, holding a sword, his eyes were slightly closed, and he seemed to be closing his eyes to recuperate.
Seeing that Dong Zhuo didn't speak, the others didn't dare to speak arrogantly.
When Dong Zhuo first entered Beijing, because his position was not stable, he played a virtuous minister for a long time at the beginning. However, with the passage of time, Dong Zhuo's powerful position has become more and more stable, and the integration of Yulinwei and the Northern Army has been completely completed, and even the Royal Forest Guards who are full-time guarding the palace have been infiltrated by him.
In the imperial court, anyone who dared to disobey Dong Zhuo's wishes, some were dismissed, and some were directly thrown into prison. According to the rumors, Dong Zhuo was behind the assassination of several heavyweight courtiers in the capital.
In any case, under the combination of vertical and horizontal, open and secret fighting, Dong Zhuo has completely controlled the situation in Luoyang. The courtiers above the court either defected to Dong Zhuo and wagged their tails in front of him and begged for mercy, or they couldn't see it and resigned and surrendered.
Today, only a few people such as Yuan Feng and Huangfu Song are still holding on, but they don't dare to face Dong Zhuo's edge, as long as Dong Zhuo doesn't kill the king, these people also grit their teeth and endure it.
In the history of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were more arrogant and domineering ministers, and there were many more than Dong Zhuo. However, after the emperor came of age, many powerful ministers were overthrown by the pro-government emperor.
At present, Huangfu Chong's strategy is to boil! Stay up until the little emperor comes of age!
Dong Zhuo didn't speak for a long time, the entire hall fell silent, and the ordinary courtiers were even more silent, and they didn't dare to gasp for fear of attracting Dong Zhuo's attention.
"Your Majesty, please judge it!"
After a while, Dong Zhuo suddenly opened his eyes and said.
The little emperor on the dragon chair was stunned, and it took a full minute to recover from that half-asleep state.
"Hmm-handover-just leave it to Xiangguo to deal with!"
The little emperor was stunned and said dumbfounded. After finishing speaking, he dozed off a lot, waved his hand sleepily and said, "I'm tired, just leave everything to Xiangguo." ”
After speaking, the little emperor slid down from the dragon chair and left the main hall under the service of the palace maid and eunuch next to him.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
Under the leadership of Dong Zhuo, everyone shouted in unison.
It's just that Huangfu Chong looked at the figure of the little emperor with a heavy expression, faintly worried. His Majesty the Emperor doesn't seem to be in good health, especially during this period of time, he is weakening rapidly at a speed that is visible to the naked eye, which is not a good sign for Emperor Fu Song and them.
Waiting for the little emperor to leave, dozens of pairs of eyes in the hall were all looking at Dong Zhuo brightly or darkly.
Lieutenant Zhang Wen broke out in a cold sweat, and said stiffly: "Dong Xiangguo, do you see this recital of the general of the expedition to the north?" ”
"Hahaha, Captain, what do you think?"
Dong Zhuo suddenly laughed out loud, and his laughter, which looked extremely heroic, gave people a sense of cruelty and viciousness.
Zhang Wen's heart tightened, and he secretly said something bad in his heart.
Up to now, Shang Ji is still labeled as "Zhang Wen's faction". Although anyone with a discerning eye knows that Zhang Wen can't influence Shang Ji at all, it doesn't prevent this label from continuing to exist.
And Shang Ji obviously didn't continue to give Zhang Wen the consciousness of being a junior brother, and he didn't communicate with him at all when he reported this letter, which made Zhang Wen very passive, for fear of causing Dong Zhuo's misunderstanding.
Speaking of Zhang Wentang, it is really rare for the third prince to reach this kind of wretched state!
"Your Majesty has been in power for less than three years, disasters occur frequently in the world, and it is really not a good time to use troops abroad.
Zhang Wen said as he carefully looked at Dong Zhuo's expression, as long as there was the slightest mistake, he immediately changed his words.
It's a pity that Dong Zhuo kept looking at him with a smile, which made Zhang Wen's plan to speculate about Dong Zhuo's intentions fail.
"What does the captain mean by rejecting the invitation of the general of Zhengbei?"
"Uh...... No, no, it mainly depends on the meaning of the country, the small country of Fanbang has repeatedly violated the border, which is really hateful, and it is not impossible to teach a lesson. ”
Zhang Wen was so slippery that he hurriedly changed his words, that is, riding on the wall, and resolutely did not directly state his position.
"Hahaha, good! What the captain said! ”
Dong Zhuo suddenly laughed and exaggerated. Zhang Wen's face was overjoyed, knowing that this was the right ass to be a sycophant, and stood behind Dong Zhuo with a respectful face.
Seeing Zhang Wen's shameless posture of kneeling and licking, many courtiers secretly pouted and expressed disdain.
"The barbarian Fanbang, who doesn't know how to educate, dares to offend the Celestial Empire, and it is better to order the general of Zhengbei to punish him slightly, so as not to fall into the prestige of the Celestial Empire."
After a pause, Dong Zhuo continued: "It's just that to deal with such a small barbarian country, the strength of Pingzhou alone is enough, and there is no need to send additional generals. Ordered, ordered the general of the north to conquer [Lee's Korea], and escorted the enemy chieftain to the capital within one year! ”
"Xiangguo is wise!"
After Dong Zhuo finished speaking, Zhang Wen immediately sent another horse.
"Hahaha, let's summon it!"
Dong Zhuo laughed, waved his head, turned around and left, without taking the Manchu Dynasty civil and military in his eyes at all.
"I'm waiting to send Xiangguo off!"
After the dispersal of the dynasty, the Xiangguo Fuzhong.
Dong Zhuo's residence in Luoyang can be said to be the most heavily defended place in the entire Luoyang, with three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, and the people responsible for security are all Dong Zhuo's exclusive special troops, the Flying Bear Army, and the minimum is a super elite of the ninth order.
In Dong Zhuo's study, a strong dark aura came to his face, Dong Zhuo's face was hideous at this time, and wisps of black gas overflowed from him, looking extremely gloomy and terrifying.
"Ahh
After a while, Dong Zhuo took a long breath and let out a very refreshing sound.
"Congratulations to Xiangguo for taking a step forward, the dragon body is just around the corner!"
In the corner of the study, completely hidden in the black robe, the voice was hoarse and low, and the mysterious person with an evil aura all over his body laughed.
Dong Zhuo regained his work, the black qi on his body disappeared, and he returned to his previous appearance in the court.
"Hahaha, this holy merit really deserves its name, and it is a pity that the cultivation conditions are too harsh, otherwise according to this holy merit, what is the difficulty of sweeping the world?"
Clenched his fists, feeling the soaring combat power again, Dong Zhuo sighed with excitement and some regret.
