Chapter 4 Chenliu Palace

In the city of Luoyang, the night is slowly, slowly. Whenever in the dead of night, Luoyang City is like the whole ground soaked in black ink, pitch black, and you can't see your fingers.

Silver-white moonlight sprinkled on the ground, and crickets chirped everywhere. The scent of the night fills the air, weaving a soft net that envelops all the scenery.

All we come into contact with is covered with this soft net, no grass or tree is as realistic as in the daytime, they all have vague and ethereal colors, each of which hides its subtleties and keeps its secrets, making people feel like a dream.

Situ Fuli.

In Situ Wangyun's study, it was late at night, and the room was lit with candlelight, making the whole room extremely transparent.

"I don't know." Situ Wang Yun also said with a sad face.

In this regard, Sun Rui, a scholar of Shangshu, also seems to have expected it: "But Brother Wang, in today's Luoyang City, after the autumn harvest, the imperial court levied a large number of taxes, the people were miserable, and the scene on the street was barren, maybe someone would starve to death on the street at this time, and now the Han Dynasty can no longer withstand the toss of the imperial court, I don't know what to do next, I'm afraid that my Han is in danger!" ”

But even so, what can we change? Now that Ding Yuan's return to Luoyang has become a fact, there is a rift between His Majesty the new emperor and Dong Zhuo, and he urgently needs Ding Yuan to return to Luoyang to balance Dong Zhuo, so that even if you and I have fallen into the quagmire, we can only do our own things and be worthy of our hearts. ”

Situ Wang Yun's face was also a little worried, but he knew that now that this matter had become a fact, even if he had the power to go to heaven, he would not be able to return to heaven.

"Hey......" Hearing this, Shangshu Lingshi Sun Rui had no choice but to sigh lightly, and then he had to get up slowly and turn his head to leave......

Looking at the back of Shang Shu Ling Shi Sun Rui who gradually stepped out of the door, Situ Wang Yun was also extremely unwilling in his heart, he knew that the purpose of Shang Shuling's coming here was actually to hope that he could come forward, and while Ding Yuan had not come back, he would bring over the officials who were being affected by Dong Zhuo's party at this time, and then form a party that could balance Dong Zhuo.

In this way, all this is under his control, at least there will be no imbalance in the future, and when Ding Yuan returns, it will depend on what Ding Yuan plans......

However, in this way, Situ Wang Yun, who was originally neutral, is no longer the same as in the past, and he is always in a close battle, which is ...... He didn't want to see it.

Therefore, even if he saw the intention of Sun Rui, the scholar of Shangshulingshi, he could only refuse selfishly.

Although Situ Wang Yun didn't say it explicitly, Sun Rui, the scholar of Shangshu, also understood what he meant, so he had to turn his head and leave silently.

......

Not long ago, the new emperor Liu Wei ascended the throne, and naturally he sealed many court officials, which is why the court levied a large amount of grain.

After all, the large number of promotions of these people means that the treasury needs to be filled in order to have the ability to reward these court officials.

However, if you want to say that the biggest one is the new emperor Liu Xie's younger brother Liu Xie.

Liu Xie was originally His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Han Dynasty, but now he is only six or seven years old and doesn't understand anything, so he didn't become the emperor.

However, the new emperor who won the throne, Liu Wei, also took good care of his younger brother, and directly crowned him as the king of Chen Liu.

Because of his youth, it is not easy for King Chen Liu to manage his territory, so now he only has such a status, and Chen Liu's palace is also built in Luoyang City.

Chenliu Palace.

Golden sunlight lazily shone on a small courtyard on the edge of the city. Like every afternoon, the bamboo and rattan rocking chairs are quietly soaking up the sun.

In the courtyard, there are many flowers and plants that are not valuable, such as evergreen, ruyi grass, canna, cockscomb...... Mother, like most of the countrymen, will not plant those flowers and plants that are difficult to wait, but choose some good flowers and plants to find a pot and put flowers, all up to their own efforts, flowers and plants are also angry, have to find a corner in the yard, decorate some autumn colors.

The Chenliu Mansion is a newly built mansion, so there are no noble elements in it, but this is already enough for a six or seven-year-old child.

Although Liu Xie was named the king of Chenliu, he only had the title of a prince, enjoying the princely fortune, but he did not have any real power, and there was only Liu Xie, the king of Chenliu, and his second mother, Mrs. Dong, in the entire Chenliu Palace, in addition, there were only some scary and maids left, therefore, as a prince, he did not enjoy his due rights.

In the courtyard, a woman in a black mesh dress was playing with a child, when suddenly a servant hurried in.

"Madam, Dong Xiangguo is here."

Hearing this, Mrs. Dong was taken aback, and then nodded with a smile, for Mrs. Dong at this time, if it weren't for Dong Zhuo's reason, I'm afraid she was still guarding the body of the emperor in the imperial mausoleum at this time, how could she enjoy the glory and wealth now?

Therefore, as soon as he heard that Dong Zhuo was coming, he couldn't help but feel happy, and hurriedly pulled Liu Xie, who was still playing, and said, "Xie'er, let's go, let's go see Dong Xiangguo." ”

"Dong Xiangguo, is it Dong Zhuo? I heard that he and Erniang are relatives. Liu Xie was stunned for a moment, Liu Xie still knew Dong Zhuo.

"Well, according to seniority, Erniang is his aunt." Mrs. Dong nodded.

"So that's the case, then Dong Xiangguo must be his own person, let's go, Erniang, let's take a look." When Liu Xie heard this, he felt very happy, so he rushed out directly.

"Huh...... Xie'er, slow down. Seeing Chen Liuwang and Liu Xie running out, Mrs. Dong had no choice but to follow.

As soon as Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, came to the hall, Dong Zhuo was sitting and drinking tea at this time, and when he saw Liu Xie in a hurry, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"Dong Xiangguo, you're here." Chen Liuwang Liu Xie looked at Dong Zhuo, who was not very familiar with him, and did not act very rusty, but greeted him directly.

"Hehehe...... Dong Zhuo has seen King Chen Liu, and today he specially brought some valuable supplements and other items to present to King Chen Liuwang and his aunt. Dong Zhuo didn't expect such a young child to greet him directly, and he couldn't help but feel happy.

"Harm...... You are so polite, Erniang is your aunt, we are all a family, Dong Xiangguo will often come to see us in the future, and you can play with me. Chen Liuwang Liu Xie said innocently.

Hearing this, these words fell into Dong Zhuo's ears, but they were extremely relieved, they ...... It's all family.

This sentence suddenly made Dong Zhuo and this Chen Liuwang Mansion a lot closer.

Yes, now Dong Zhuo is in a high position, but there is no such close person.

"Okay, then Dong Zhuo must come over often in the future, hahaha......"

As soon as he thought of this, Dong Zhuo suddenly felt great comfort in his heart, because he had a feeling that he was no longer alone.

"Dong Xiangguo is really a cheerful person, I heard that you are working with my eldest brother, with Dong Xiangguo here, I must have shared a lot of worries for my eldest brother!"

At this time, the voice of Chen Liuwang Liu Xie sounded in Dong Zhuo's ears, and it suddenly exploded like a thunderbolt......
