The book is picked up again.

After Dong Zhuo came to Cao Cao's mansion, it was not Li Zhi but Xu Huang who came out to greet them.

"In Xia Xu Huang, Xu Gongming has seen the general."

Dong Zhuo saw that it was Xu Huang, frowned, and asked unhappily, "Why are you?" Where's your father-in-law? ”

Although Dong Zhuo was very afraid of Li Zhi's power, he didn't want to lose face in front of Li Zhi.

Therefore, he was very annoyed that Li Zhi did not come out to greet him in person.

When Xu Huang heard this, he bowed slightly to Dong Zhuo and said, "Please forgive me, general, my brother is in poor health now, and it is inconvenient to see people."

If the general has any problems, please tell him and pass it on to his brother. ”

After hearing Xu Huang's words, Dong Zhuo's brows furrowed even deeper.

He thought that Li Zhi was deliberately avoiding it, which made him very panicked.

If Li Zhi deliberately did not see him, wouldn't it prove that Li Zhi was unwilling to form an alliance with him? Do you even want to go against him?

After thinking of this possibility, Dong Zhuo asked with a gloomy face: "Is the hussar general really in good health, not deliberately avoiding it?" ”

After hearing Dong Zhuo's words, Xu Huang smiled slightly and said, "The general doesn't need to be angry, my brother has already guessed the general's intention, so he asked him to pass a message to the general." ”

When Dong Zhuo heard this, his eyes lit up, and he asked eagerly: "What words?!" ”

"Ahem!" After Xu Huang coughed dryly, he learned from Li Zhi on weekdays, and said to Dong Zhuo: "The meaning of the general's coming here is already known.

The general doesn't have to worry, Benhou is too lazy to care about the affairs between you and the princes.

However, Ben Hou needs you to ask His Majesty to write an edict to Ben Hou that cannot be moved.

In this way, Ben Hou can sit behind the stage and watch the play with peace of mind. ”

When Dong Zhuo heard this, his face immediately became gloomy, and he asked at Xuhuang: "What does the hussar general mean by this, is he planning to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight?" ”

Although his face was gloomy, he breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, it was better to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight than to become an enemy.

After Xu Huang heard Dong Zhuo's words, he nodded nonchalantly and replied, "That's right, my brother means to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight!"

If you don't agree, your brother will inevitably be on the other side, and then you really have no chance of winning. ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Dong Zhuo, who was gloomy, smiled and said, "General, you should be glad that my brother has no intention of interfering with your affairs at all.

It's already the biggest concession for my brother to be able to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, if you still have to make an inch......"

At this point, he didn't go on, but his eyes were full of threat.

"Humph!" After Dong Zhuo heard Xu Huang's words, he snorted coldly, but he didn't refute anything.

Because he knew that although Xu Huang's words were ugly, they were very reasonable, and if Li Zhi really stood on the other side, then his fate would be very miserable.

However, Dong Zhuo was still a little uneasy, because these words were all said by Xu Huang, who knew if Li Zhi meant it, he needed to see Li Zhi.

Therefore, he asked Xu Huang: "Since the hussar general is sick, the old man should go to visit." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Xu Huang with blazing eyes, waiting for his answer.

After hearing Dong Zhuo's words, Xu Huang nodded nonchalantly, and said expressionlessly: "Since that's the case, then you can come down with it." ”

When Li Zhi went out of the city, he had already arranged everything, so he was not afraid of being discovered by Dong Zhuo.

After Xu Huang took Dong Zhuo to Li Zhi's wing, he knocked on the door twice and asked in a low voice, "Brother, the general Dong Zhuo came to visit." ”

"Ahem!" As soon as Xu Huang's words fell, two coughing sounds came from inside.

Subsequently......

"Noise......" came a chaotic noise.

After hearing these voices, Xu Huang frowned, and the displeasure in his eyes flashed.

Then, he raised his voice again and shouted into the house: "Brother, the general Dong Zhuo has come to visit. ”

However, there was a silence in response to Xu Huang, and no one in the house answered at all.

After a while, the words came from inside: "Come in." ”

Xu Huang frowned and pushed open the door of the house, and said to Dong Zhuo on the side: "Brother may have fallen asleep just now, let the general wait for a long time, please." ”

After finishing speaking, he first entered Li Zhi's room, he wanted to see what this imposter was doing.

As soon as Xu Huang entered the room, he smelled a strong smell of wine and meat, and when he got closer, he saw that a large table in the middle was full of delicious food and wine.

At this time, the food and wine on the table had almost been eaten, and only some leftovers remained.

Moreover, several dishes fell to the ground and were shattered.

It can be seen that the person pretending to be Li Zhi just now was eating, but he was startled by Xu Huang's voice and broke some dishes.

Xu Huang looked at the messy scene in Li Zhi's house, and his brows furrowed tightly.

He didn't expect that this imposter would be so ignorant, how could the hussar general's residence be used for drinking and having fun? There are really no rules at all!

Although Xu Huang was angry, he didn't forget Dong Zhuo behind him.

He turned around and said to Dong Zhuo, who was a little surprised on his face, "Let the general see and laugh."

Just now, before going down to meet the general, I was eating in my brother's room.

When I heard that the general was coming, I was a little surprised, so I accidentally broke a few dishes. ”

When Dong Zhuo heard this, he was stunned for a moment, pointed to the imposter who was lying on the bed, and asked in surprise: "The hussar general is in poor health, and you are still eating in his room?" ”

"Hehe......" Xu Huang smiled bitterly twice when he heard this, and said helplessly: "Although my brother is sick, he is very concerned about the affairs of the world.

Early this morning, my brother came down to inquire about the affairs of the world, so that he missed the meal.

That's why my brother asked me to prepare a table for the next table of wine, and let him talk to him while eating. ”

"I see," Dong Zhuo nodded suspiciously.

Although he felt that there was something wrong with this, he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he had to give up.

Then, he came to Li Zhi's couch, bowed deeply to Li Zhi lying on the couch, and said respectfully: "I have seen the hussar general below." ”

Although Dong Zhuo's position is higher than Li Zhi's, Dong Zhuo can't hold his head up in front of Li Zhi.

Therefore, even if Li Zhi was lying on him and was sick, he would not dare to be rude.

"Ahem!" The impostor lying on the couch, after hearing Dong Zhuo's words, pretended to be weak and coughed twice, and replied in a hoarse voice: "The general doesn't have to be polite, get up." ”

When Dong Zhuo heard this, he straightened up from the goodness.

Afterwards, he asked "Li Zhi", who was lying on the couch with his back to him, "Hussar General, is what you asked General Xu to convey just now true?" ”

"Ahem...... The impostor coughed twice more, and then replied in a weak voice: "Please rest assured, General Dong, Xu ...... Of course, what Brother Gongming said is true, and Ben Hou means exactly that.

Ben Hou would never dare to offend the general's tiger power, so Ben Hou would not interfere in the alliance between the general and the princes outside the city. ”

After Dong Zhuo heard the imposter's words, not only was he not relieved, but his brows furrowed even deeper.

He always felt that there was something wrong with this Li Zhi, in the past, he didn't talk to Li Zhi, he knew very clearly the tone and voice of Li Zhi's speech.

The Li Zhi in front of him not only had a somewhat wrong voice, but even the tone of his speech was not as domineering as before.

In the past, when Li Zhi talked to him, he often used a commanding tone, but at this time, Li Zhi was very polite, which made people have to be suspicious.

Full of suspicion, Dong Zhuo opened his mouth and asked, "What is the illness of the hussar general, and why is his voice different from before?" ”

"Ahem, cough, cough......" After hearing Dong Zhuo's inquiry, the imposter lying on the bed coughed rapidly.

He was very nervous now, for fear that Dong Zhuo would see through him, so he didn't even dare to say a word, grabbed the corner of his clothes tightly, and trembled.

Xu Huang, who had been standing aside, sighed in his heart after hearing Dong Zhuo's inquiry.

He knew that this imposter he was lying on the bed was just an ordinary person, and he didn't have the domineering spirit of Li Zhi at all.

He was afraid of impostors, so he hurriedly interjected: "General Lao asked, and my brother just occasionally felt the cold, so his voice was a little hoarse." ”

After finishing speaking, he quietly came to Dong Zhuo's face, pointed his hand at Dong Zhuo, and said with a smile: "Forgive me, the doctor has instructed that what my brother needs most now is rest, so please come back another day." ”

After Dong Zhuo heard Xu Huang's words, he glanced at him expressionlessly, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Since this is the case, then the old man will no longer bother to say goodbye." ”

After finishing speaking, Dong Zhuo turned his head and left......
