Sikong Province.

The fat and bloated Dong Zhuo held the wine lord in one hand and the famous maiko in the other, and behind him stood his son-in-law Li Ru, who had a very scribe temperament, and his subordinate Li Su.

Seeing Lü Bu and Li Su, Dong Zhuo knew that the strategy of luring Lü Bu to kill Ding Yuan and annex the state army had succeeded.

And kneeling below was a tall man, thirty miles away.

The burly man's eyebrows are outstretched, his eyes are abnormally sharp, his muscles are strong, even through the armor, he can feel his explosive power, he is holding a bloody human head in both hands, this person is Lu Bu, who is known as the first fierce general of the Three Kingdoms.

Lu Bukou said: "I beheaded Ding Yuan, and I dedicated it to Lord Sikong to repay the kindness of my lordship." ”

Dong Zhuo smiled: "Okay, the general is really brave." ”

Lu Bu said again: "Bu has admired the Lord for a long time, and now he is willing to worship the Lord as his father. ”

Dong Zhuo was a little surprised by his request.

Li Ru felt that this was an opportunity to win over Lu Bu to become a confidant of the Xiliang Army, so he took the opportunity to say to Dong Zhuo: "Congratulations to my father-in-law for being such a talented moth." ”

Dong Zhuo understood that Li Ru wanted him to win over Lu Bu to become a confidant, so he stepped forward and took Lu Bu's hand and said, "It is the blessing of the old man to be able to accept the first as a righteous son." ”

Lu Bu also took the opportunity to say: "I am willing to cut through thorns and thorns for my father-in-law with the iron halberd in Yibu's hand." ”

Li Su complimented: "Lord Sikong can be so fierce, why worry about not succeeding in a big deal." Several people looked at each other and smiled.

Besides, Dong Zhuo's unbridled laughter only stopped after a while.

After Li Ru waited for Dong Zhuo to stop, he ordered irrelevant people to go down before he stepped forward and said, "My lord, there is a matter that needs to be decided by adults now."

Li Ru said, "Regarding the issue of the integration of the first section of the Bingzhou Army, you can ask General Lu about this matter."

Involving Lu Bu and the Bingzhou Army, Dong Zhuo became interested and asked Lu Bu, "Fengxian my son, what's wrong with the Bingzhou Army?" ”。

When Lu Bu heard Li Ru mention the state army, he knew that something bad was going to happen, and sure enough, Dong Zhuo asked himself.

I had no choice but to answer stubbornly, "Father-in-law, it's not a big deal, it's just that there was a general under the old thief Ding Yuan who refused to accept the jurisdiction of the child, and privately led less than 1,000 people to flee Luoyang." The child is also trying to ask the righteous father what to do? ”。

"Well, it turned out to be the remnants of Ding Yuan, just run away, the old man is not rare", Dong Zhuo heard that there were only 1,000 people, and he immediately lost interest, and said casually.

Dong Zhuo was naturally overjoyed to receive Lu Bu, and he immediately named Lu Bu as the cavalry captain, although the official position of the cavalry lieutenant is not large, but the significance is extraordinary, but it is the official position held by Ding Yuan before he did not do the state assassination.

Dong Zhuo came here to let Lu Bu know that he was only a small civilian boss under Ding Yuan, and after joining Dong Zhuo, he immediately gained the status that Ding Yuan took decades to obtain, showing Dong Zhuo's emphasis on Lu Bu.

At this time, Dong Zhuo was indeed scheming, and he was considered powerful among all the princes.

Wang Yun's house, back hall.

On the couch, Mrs. Wang and Diao Chan supported her, and a beautiful girl was half-lying.

Wang Yun arched his hand below and asked, "Has Her Royal Highness the princess been in good health?" ”

It turned out that the one who was hit by Wang Yun's carriage that day was Liu Yan, the princess of Wannian who escaped under the hijacking of Zhang Rang and others.

Liu Yan was a little weak and said in a coquettish voice: "Lord Wang, I don't know how the situation in the palace is?" ”

Wang Yun flickered a little hesitantly, and said worriedly: "The princess wants to go back to the palace?" Although His Majesty has returned to the palace, but now the situation of more than 100,000 troops stationed in Luoyang is still critical, and the new Sikong Dong Zhuo controls Luoyang City and the palace. ”

Princess Wannian wanted to find Yuan Shao's mansion that day, and she didn't want to leave in a hurry, and she was unfamiliar with Luoyang City, so she was bumped into.

She has long been tired of the many restrictive lives in the palace, and when she heard Wang Yun say this, she said: "Except for Your Majesty and the Emperor Xie's brother, I have no relatives, since the situation is unstable, I still don't go back to the palace first, please take it in." ”

Wang Yunlian said that he didn't dare, and asked her to stay and wait for the situation to calm down before entering the palace.

In fact, he didn't dare to hide the princess privately, but in the past few days, he heard some news from the palace, saying that Dong Zhuo had broken into the palace at night with the power of the army* The widow of the first emperor.

This is not a good sign, and he doesn't want Liu Yan to go back easily until he sees the situation clearly.

In the study of Yuan's mansion, Yuan Shao recruited a group of civil and military cronies and friends, including Cao Cao, Yuan Shu, Xu You, Guo Tu, Chun Yuqiong, Yan Liangwen Chou, etc.

In addition, there is a rather heroic young sergeant, he is the new defector Zhang Liao.

Separated from Yuan Xi that day, Zhang Liao returned to Ding Yuan's garrison and reported to Ding Yuan about recruiting troops and other matters.

Ding Yuan was very disgusted with Dong Zhuo's dominance, but he couldn't think of how Dong Zhuo would attack him, so he just asked the Bingzhou army to strengthen the defense of the camp.

He didn't expect that he would die at the hands of his closest cronies.

Lü Bu relied on his martial courage to suppress the resistance of the Bingzhou army, but there were still many sergeants who were unwilling to follow Lü Bu and fled.

Lu Bu didn't care, and took more than 2,000 of his own soldiers and the state iron cavalry to take refuge in Dong Zhuo.

Zhang Liao, who was reminded by Yuan Xi, after some consideration, took more than 1,000 soldiers and horses newly recruited from Hebei to join Yuan Shao.

Zhang Liao came out of the ranks, and he did not hide it, and told Yuan Shao and others eloquently. It turned out that the dead Ding Yuan had the grace of knowing Zhang Liao and promoted him to Weimo. Lu Bu rebelled, the army was discouraged, he was unable to return to heaven, grateful for the great kindness of the ancestors, and planned to return to his hometown in Bingzhou to recruit troops and horses, looking for an opportunity to avenge Ding Yuan.

didn't want to be chased and killed by Lu Bu, but was later met by Yuan Shao, so he took refuge in the Yuan family. In anticipation of borrowing the power of the Yuan family to avenge the ancestors.

When Yuan Shao heard this, he was amazed, "I don't want the general to be so gracious, Ding Thorn Shiquan must be very gratified if he knows it."

Although everyone already knows, when the parties mention this, they are full of righteous indignation.

Yuan Shu gloated a little and said: "This guy shouldn't have been summoned to Beijing in the first place, otherwise how could there be today's thing." ”

Yuan Shao looked at this younger brother who had been at odds with him since he was a child, it was his idea to summon Dong Zhuo at the beginning, although it turned out to be a great stupid trick, but he had a good face and did not admit his mistake in his heart.

Cao Cao persuaded: "For the sake of our first thing to discuss how to deal with the current situation, the first part of our army is now only 2,000 people, even if we add the soldiers and horses of the original and highway, it is also a lonely force against Dong Zhuo, not to mention that Dong Zhuo's Xiliang soldiers have been tempered on the battlefield for a long time, and their bravery and bravery are not comparable to the Luoyang garrison." ”

Xun You suggested: "I think that you should lead your troops to leave Beijing, recruit soldiers and horses in various parts of the Kanto, and then unite the heroes of the loyal monarch and the country in the Kwantung region to send troops to destroy Dong Zhuo and his party." ”

"Yes, we can't sit in Luoyang and let people eat meat, and we should gather the world's heroes to crusade against Dong Zhuo." Cao Cao said.

The rest of the people saw that this was the best way at the moment, and they agreed.

After discussing some plans to leave Beijing, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu and others left Yuan's mansion.

Yuan Shao looked at the rest of his henchmen and asked, "Where should I find a place to set up troops?" ”

This time it stumped everyone, and it seemed that there was nowhere to go but nowhere to go.

Guo Tu said: "Originally, Runan was the foundation of the Yuan clan and was the best place to go, but it was already Yuan Highway and other places. ”

Yuan Xi took the opportunity to say: "It's better to go to Hebei." Yuan Xi and Zhang Hong once discussed this issue.

"Oh, how could Childe want to go to Hebei?" Xu You was a little surprised.

"Ziyuan, isn't Hebei good?" Yuan Shao asked.

"No, Gongzi and I have thought of one place, although the second son is young, he has only learned and seen extraordinarily, let the second son explain to Yuan Gong, why go to Hebei to establish himself." Guo Tu shook his head and said.

Yuan Shao also looked at Yuan Xi with a curious expression.

Yuan Xi sorted out his thoughts, and said according to Zhang Hong's analysis at that time: "First, Hebei is rich and densely populated and the people are fierce, and Yan Zhao has been a place where heroes have succeeded in their hegemony since ancient times. Second, Hebei is far away from Luoyang and is blocked by river moats, so it is difficult for Dong Zhuo to attack us even if he has the heart. Third, Jizhou Mu Han Wenjie is my Yuan family's protégé, and he will definitely take care of me, Xi is not as knowledgeable as the two gentlemen, I don't know what to say? ”

Xu You said with a smile: "Childe's insights are indeed unique and sharp. ”

After Yuan Xi was humble for a moment, he said worriedly: "It's just that I'm waiting for me to leave to raise an army to fight against Dong Zhuo, I don't know if my uncle will be implicated." Indeed, the Yuan family was retaliated against by Dong Zhuo later.

Yuan Shao thought for a while and said, "I'll go and discuss this matter with my uncle." So he asked everyone to prepare for leaving Beijing.

In the next two days, the Yuan Mansion had quietly packed up the soft luggage.

Chun Yuqiong, Yan Liang and others also began to reorganize their soldiers and reserve grain, grass, baggage and other things.

In the right lieutenant department of the auxiliary army, Yuan Xi just hung up the name of the commander, and the specific matters were handed over to Xu Chu and Zhang Hong.

He arrived at the gambling house and finally gave Hua Xu some instructions. Then he sent his servant Yuan He to Gao Mansion to contact Gao Yue.

On this day, Dong Zhuo summoned all the courtiers to a side hall of the palace, and after the courtiers knelt and sat down, Dong Zhuo came out and sat at the head of the table, behind which stood Li Ru and the mighty and strong Lu Bu.

After the greetings, Li Ru glanced at Dong Zhuo, who signaled everyone to silence, and then said: "The emperor has no ability, he can't flatter Zongmiao and be the monarch who rules the world." Now, I want to follow the precedent of Yi Yin and Huo Guang and change Chen Liuwang as emperor, what do you think? ”

The courtiers immediately burst into a chaotic discussion, and there were those who were sad and angry, and there were also cold-eyed bystanders.

Dong Zhuo said loudly again: "In the past, after Huo Guang set the plan to abolish the establishment, Tian Yannian held the hilt of the sword in his hand, ready to kill those who opposed it. Whoever dares to oppose this plan now will do so by military law! Serve you first and be in charge of military law. ”

After Lu Bu said the promise, he pressed the hilt of his sword and looked around at the ministers below, and a team of sword-wielding guards flashed next to him.

The ministers and below were shocked and panicked, and no one dared to speak out.

When did Yuan Shao receive such an agitation, not to mention that he came up with the idea to lure Dong Zhuo into Beijing.

Yuan Shao suddenly had a surge of blood in his head, and he immediately stood up and said: "The Han Dynasty has ruled the world for about four hundred years, and its kindness is profound, and it is supported by all the people. Now the emperor is still young, and there is no fault to spread to the world. If you want to abolish your throne, I'm afraid everyone won't approve of your proposal! ”

Dong Zhuo didn't expect that someone would dare to resist, if it was not properly handled, the prestige that he had worked so hard to build would be in vain.

So he pressed the hilt of the sword with his hand and said to Yuan Shao: "Shaft, you dare to be so presumptuous!" Isn't it up to me to decide the major events in the world! If I want to do this, who would dare to disobey? Do you think Dong Zhuo's knife is not sharp! ”

Yuan Shao was furious and said: "The heroes and heroes of the world, is it only you Dong Gong alone!" Although Yuan Shao was out of a moment of anger, the temperament of the overlord still suppressed a group of people.

Yuan Shao turned the saber sideways, made a gesture to everyone, and went straight out.

Lu Bu wanted to draw his sword and stepped forward. was stopped by Li Ru,

Li Ru stepped forward and whispered to Dong Zhuo, who was not lightly angry: "The situation is still unstable now, and it is not easy for the Yuan family to deal with it, so we will discuss it later." ”

Dong Zhuo was still a little jealous of the prestige of the Yuan family, so he turned around and left angrily. The most important thing is that the sentence of the fourth generation and the third prince of the Yuan family, and the protégés and former officials all over the world is not completely bluffing. The power of famous families cannot be underestimated. So when Dong Zhuo asked his father for advice, he said his famous saying. also nakedly exposed his wolf ambitions.

Although Cao Cao, who was sitting below, felt that Yuan Shao's approach was not very rational, he also praised it in his heart.

In fact, Yuan Shao just relied on his momentary blood and turned his face with Dong Zhuo, and as soon as he turned around, his cold sweat broke out, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt afraid, he hurriedly returned home and ordered a cadre to leave Beijing immediately.

Yuan Xi, who was in the backyard of the gambling house, received an order from Yuan He to report to Yuan Shao.

Although he was prepared, he didn't expect it to happen so suddenly. Yuan Xi turned over with some anxiety and took Xu Chu to the Gao family quickly, Yuan Xi planned to gamble at the end, everything depends on the will of God.

Luoyang, Gaofu

When Gao Jing saw Yuan Xi appear in Gao Mansion again, Gao Jing knew what was going on, so he sighed Gao Jing looked at him twice, and suddenly said, "Yue'er, come in." ”

Yuan Xi was slightly stunned, and when he turned around suddenly, he saw Gao Yue gently pushing the door open, looking at him with a complicated expression, looking at his appearance, he thought that he had been standing for a long time.

"Father!" Gao Yue entered the door and closed the door, and blessed Gao Jing. Gao Jing looked at his daughter with satisfaction and said, "We had a conversation outside the door just now, and you listened to it." For the sake of the father, let's make things clear today, and you can choose for yourself. ”

"Father!" Gao Yue didn't expect her father to say such a thing, and she had mixed feelings for a while, and when she opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say.

Yuan Xi reacted, looked at Gao Jing deeply, stepped forward and pulled Gao Yue's palm, held it tightly in his hand, did not let her break free, and said to Gao Jing: "No matter how you choose, I should be the best candidate, I will decide for her!" ”

Gao Jing didn't look at him, but stared at his daughter.

Gao Yue's cheeks flushed, he twisted his arm, and when he saw that he couldn't get rid of it, he lowered his head and took two steps back slightly.

To be honest, the reactions of Gao Jing's father and daughter were a bit unexpected for Yuan Xi.

He would have thought of saying it more ruthlessly, and he had also thought that Gao Yue would decisively refuse him when he went to pull her arm.

But things didn't go the way he wanted them to go.

Gao Yue's attitude surprised him even more, knowing that he had made her angry this morning.

Gao Jing nodded and said, "Do you really want to marry Yue'er?" ”

Yuan Xi obviously noticed that when Gao Jing asked this sentence, Gao Yue's arm trembled slightly.

He held it tightly and said unusually calmly: "Innocent will only be my wife Yuan Xianyi." ”

Gao Jing stared at him and said lightly: "Then take advantage of today's free time, you can worship the church." ”

"What?" This time, not only Yuan Xi was stunned, but even Gao Yue was blindsided, looking at his father with an incredible face.

"The wedding is just a formality, now that my emperor is seriously ill, it is obviously not suitable for large-scale operation, if you two have no opinion, I will be the only witness today!"

"This?" Yuan Xi looked at Gao Yue, whose face was flushed, and asked, "Then do you want to invite my father?" ”

"What did you ask him to do?" Gao Jing waved his hand and said, "Just today, in this study, the two of you are married!" ”

"Father!" Gao Yue's face was full of embarrassment, and she said angrily: "What did you do with your daughter?" Xianyi is not buying a maid, I will marry him, what do the people of the world think? ”

"Hehe," Gao Jing said indifferently: "Yuan Xi, this kid has long lost his face, you don't care what the world thinks of him." But after you return to Hebei, can you make up for another marriage, you will know this kid's attitude towards you. ”

"When I go back to Hebei, I will definitely hold a grand wedding for Wuji!" Yuan Xi immediately marked his attitude.

Saying that, without looking at Gao Yue's face, he pulled her to kneel, and after three bows and nine knocks directed by herself, she stood up contentedly, for fear that Old Man Gao would regret it, and said to Gao Jing: "Father-in-law, you can simply resign." "Get out!"

Yuan Xi pulled Gao Yue out of the study in embarrassment. The two looked at each other and smiled, and hugged each other gently.

The Gao Mansion is not very large, but it is by no means very small, and the area is about two-thirds the size of Yuan Xi's mansion in Luoyang.

In winter, the air seemed drier and the sky was gray, Yuan Xi pulled Gao Yue to slowly pace in the garden in the backyard of the attached middle school.

The gardens of Gaofu, like Gao Jing himself, were dry and tasteless, especially in winter.

Yuan Xi came many times throughout the year before, Gao Yue accompanied him to hang out, and every corner of the back garden could be said to have traces of them.

Only this time the two walked side by side, but their left and right hands were firmly clenched together.

Yuan Xi's pace was half a step ahead, and Gao Yue looked stunned, Yuan Xi glanced at her, and suddenly asked, "Does it feel too sudden?" ”

Gao Yue came back to his senses, put his body tightly against his arm, and said with a warm smile: "It's not really, in fact, I have been looking forward to this day for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be like this!" ”

Yuan Xi smiled: "Then which way do you think it will be?" ”

"I thought you'd rob you, Xianyi!"

Yuan Xi was stunned, she was really guessed right by Gao Rou, but she didn't expect that Gao Yue, who was elegant and quiet, actually imagined that she would snatch her over. Yuan Xi really wanted to ask Gao Rou how she knew, but at this time, Gao Rou had already returned to her hometown to stay behind, in fact, Gao Jing also knew that something big was going to happen in Luoyang, so he arranged for Gao Rou to go back to her hometown in advance to arrange the way back.

"If I don't come today, if your father really marries you, will you really marry you?"

"yes." Gao Yue looked at him and said lightly: "You keep saying that you like me and don't want to give up on me, I'm willing to bet on myself." If you really can't bear me, you will definitely do something. Otherwise, I'll die. ”

"I'm really going to grab it." Yuan Xi looked at her seriously, his eyes full of tenderness: "No matter what others think, your father, even my father, I don't care, if Wei Zhongdao dares to marry you, he will definitely die, whether you want to or not, I will snatch you back to be my wife." ”

Gao Yue pursed her lips and chuckled: "Although you are very annoying like this, I like the concubine very much." ”

"Haha." Yuan Xi was happy in his heart and laughed twice.

There were not many people in the Gao Mansion, and the backyard seemed unusually empty, Yuan Xi picked up Gao Yue, walked quickly to the side of the pavilion and sat down, and then pulled her Ye Yi and said, "Wuji, I will definitely protect you well." ”

Gao Yue looked at him in a daze, and said softly, "Are troubled times really coming?" ”

"yes, it's almost there this year." Yuan Xi said: "You go back to Hebei with me, Luoyang is no longer suitable for us." ”

"But my father ......"

"Your father is different from you, this is an opportunity and a challenge for him, I will help him in due course, but this road is his own after all, do you understand what I mean?"

Gao Yue's face was gloomy, Yuan Xi knew her father so well, and she was puzzled as a daughter. It's just that many things are understood, and there are very few things that can be seen through enlightenment.

"Come back to Hebei with me." Yuan Xi gently wrapped his arms around her willow waist and muttered, "I need a little time too, do you understand?" ”

Gao Yue's heart, which was still very hesitant, suddenly softened, lay in his arms, and responded softly: "Listen to your husband without stains." ”

Yuan Shao ordered Wen Chou to lead the Chinese army and escort the family away first.

Then go to the West Garden, and all the soldiers and horses of the joint institute will evacuate Luoyang. In the end, Yan Liang led the original 5,000 soldiers of the army to the palace.

In less than half a day, a group of soldiers and horses, totaling more than 20,000 people, left Luoyang and rushed to Hebei via the Chenliu Yellow River.

Yuan Xi, under the escort of 300 elite cavalry led by Xu Chu, followed Yuan Shao to command the army in Luoshui to rush across the river overnight.

When the last group of soldiers and horses crossed Luoshui, and Dong Zhuo did not send chasing troops, the father and son breathed a sigh of relief.

Yuan Shao ordered all the nearby ships to be burned, and sent someone to inform Jizhou Mu Hanfu in advance.

In the backyard of Sikong Mansion, Dong Zhuo took out the ring head knife, split it in half, and yelled at Li Ru, Li Su, and Lu Bu who followed up: "Can't I kill Yuan Shao, the erection!" ”

Lu Bu arched his hand and said: "As soon as the righteous father gives an order, Bu can kill Yuan Shao's head and sacrifice it to his righteous father." ”

Li Ru persuaded Dong Zhuo: "Abolishing a major event is not something that ordinary people can understand. Yuan Shao didn't know the general situation, so he was afraid to run away, not because he had other meanings. If he is too hastily arrested, it will inevitably provoke an incident. The four generations of the Yuan family have spread kindness, and their protégés and former officials are all over the world. If Yuan Shao recruits heroes and pulls up the team, the heroes will take advantage of the situation, at that time, Kanto may not be under the control of Ming Gong, so it is better to pardon him and give him a county guard, then, he is glad to be exempted, and he will not cause trouble. ”

After hearing this, Dong Zhuo weighed it and his anger eased a little, so he ordered Yuan Shao to be appointed as the Taishou of Bohai and given the title of Marquis of Yixiang. Dong Zhuo was still a hero at this time.

Dong Zhuo reported the abolition to Taifu Yuan Kui, and Yuan Kui agreed. Yuan Shao therefore abandoned his official position and fled to Bohai County, Jizhou.

On August 30, Dong Zhuo proposed the abolition of the establishment at the court meeting, and took Huo Guangshi as an example, since Bitian Yannian (whoever opposes it will be immediately executed), only Shangshu Lu Zhi of the Manchu Dynasty stood up to defend himself, Dong Zhuo was speechless and angry. Later, Dong Zhuo also wanted to find an opportunity to kill Lu Zhi, but was dissuaded by Cai Yong and Peng Bo, and Lu Zhi abandoned his official position and fled.

On September 1, in the front hall of Chongde, Shangshu Ding Palace presided over the abolition ceremony, and in the same month, Dong Zhuo convened hundreds of officials in the front hall of Chongde and threatened the Empress Dowager He to issue an edict to depose the young emperor Liu Wei. The edict said: "During the emperor's funeral for the first emperor, he did not fulfill his filial piety as a son, and his appearance lacked the majesty that a king should have. Now, he is deposed as the king of Hongnong and the king of Chen is appointed as the emperor. ”

Yuan Kui thought deeply and complicatedly, and untied the seal ribbon worn by the young emperor Liu Wei and presented it to Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu. Then he helped Liu Wei, the king of agriculture, to go down to the palace and pay tribute to Liu Xie, who was sitting in the north.

Empress Dowager He choked up, and the ministers were sad in their hearts, but no one dared to speak. Taifu Yuan Kui helped Liu Wei off the throne, lifted the jade seal and handed it to Liu Xie, and then helped Liu Xie to officially ascend the throne, which was to "dedicate the emperor".

Immediately afterwards, Dong Zhuo asked Shangshu to read out the policy, and impeached the Empress Dowager He for killing the Empress Dowager Dong, deposed him, and moved to Yong'an Palace.

Dong Zhuo had to put forward inch by inch: "Empress Dowager He once persecuted her mother-in-law, Empress Dowager Dong, causing her to die of worry, which violated the etiquette system of daughter-in-law to honor her mother-in-law. ”

So, the Empress Dowager He was moved to Yong'an Palace. Amnesty to the world, change the name of the era Zhaoning to Yonghan. Soon, Dong Zhuo killed Empress Dowager He with poison.

On September 3, Empress Dowager He was poisoned and died. Dong Zhuo did not allow the imperial court to hold a funeral for the Empress Dowager, but asked Liu Xie to go to Fengchang Pavilion in Luoyang City to express condolences, and the ministers wore white clothes to the court for three days.

Dong Zhuo dug up He Miao's coffin again, took out the body, dismembered it, cut it into segments, and threw it on the side of the road. He Miao's mother, Wuyangjun, also killed him and threw his body in the Mandarin Garden on the imperial hedge wall.

Three days later, Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses came to camp near Chenliu.

After Cao Cao failed to assassinate Dong Zhuo, he also fled from the capital to Chenliu.

Poor Dong Zhuo learned the lesson of Yuan Shao's escape with the army, and strengthened his control over all the soldiers and horses near Luoyang.

Therefore, Cao Cao fled with his son Cao Ang and the Xiahou brothers, and the family had already been settled.

Yuan Shao hosted a banquet for Cao Cao and others in the Chang's Pavilion outside Chen Liucheng.

Cao Cao brought Cao Ang and the Xiahou brothers to the banquet, and Yuan Shangxu and Guo Tu naturally accompanied him.

After the two sides were polite, the guests and hosts sat down, Yuan Xi looked at the Xiahou brothers under Cao Cao, and couldn't help but sigh at the two generals.

He had seen these two people before but was not familiar with them, and he knew that these two people would be Cao Cao's right-hand men in the future.

The banquet was about to begin, and during the banquet, everyone first recalled some old things in Beijing. The guest and the host sat down, Yuan Shao looked at Fa Xiao Cao Cao and asked, "If there is chaos today, the Son of Heaven is covered with dust, Dong Zhuo is cholera Jingshi, we plan to raise volunteers to fight against Dong Zhuo, but if we don't get rid of Dong Zhuo, then what should we plan in the future?"

Cao Cao was very stunned, and asked rhetorically, "Then how did you plan it at the beginning?" Cao Cao really didn't have this idea at this time. Yuan Shao then said: "I am based on the river in the south, the Yan Dynasty in the north, and the people of Rong Di, and the south to fight for the world." ”

Although Cao Cao did not make any prior arrangements for this, Cao Cao said in a hurry after hearing this: "I am the intelligence of the world, and I can do everything with the Tao." And this meeting between Yuan Cao and Yuan Cao determined the strategic dynamics of the two families in the future, and they will become opponents in the future.
