On April 23, the third year of Chuping (192 AD), Lü Bu killed Dong Zhuo in front of the Weiyang Hall of the Chang'an Imperial Palace.

After that, Dong Zhuo's forces in Chang'an City were completely wiped out, Dong Yue, Dong Huang, and Li Ru were killed in battle, Jia Xu and Li Su were captured, and most of his men surrendered.

Wang Yun, the planner of this battle, led the civil and military forces at all levels to ensure the stability of the city on the one hand, and organized people to go to Hewu to welcome the Son of Heaven on the other hand.

At this time, Lu Bu had already arrived in front of the main gate of Yiwu.

Responsible for garrisoning Yiwu is Dong Zhuo's younger brother Dong Min, as well as Fan Chou and Zhang Ji. Lu Bu was anxious to find Diao Chan, and he wanted to kill him desperately, but when he arrived, the main gate of Hewu had already opened, and the situation inside the door surprised him.

The Hewu is modeled after the structure of the imperial palace in the inner city of Chang'an, but the outer walls are directly defensive facilities. But at this time, the soldiers were lined up on both sides, and Lu Bu entered from the outside, but no one stopped him.

Before coming to the main hall, Lu Bu found that there had also been a battle here, but the scale was not large, and there were dozens of soldiers' corpses on the ground, all of which had been deformed. Riding a few steps forward, Lu Bu saw a big pit on the ground in the middle of the steps, it should be a person who was hit by a heavy object, the pit was surrounded by broken arms and legs, and there was only a puddle of flesh and mud left in the pit, and the appearance of the body could no longer be seen.

On the steps sat a very strong man, holding an iron pillar nearly one man tall and one and a half feet thick in his right hand, and a head in his left hand. Obviously, those deformed corpses are also his masterpieces.

Lu Bu was very surprised, not only because this big man used this iron pillar as a weapon, but also because the head with a frightened face was none other than Dong Min.

The Son of Heaven was standing on the steps at this moment, under the escort of Fan Chou and Zhang Ji.

Lu Bu instantly understood that these two people, in order to protect themselves, sold Dong Min.

"General Lu, General Zhang Ji and I have killed Dong Min, the Son of Heaven is now safe, what is the situation in Chang'an? Can you escort ......" Fan Chou was about to say if he could escort the Son of Heaven back to the palace, but suddenly found that Lu Bu's eyes were not looking at this side at all, he was looking for someone else.

Fan Chou originally felt that he had a meritorious escort and was about to show off, but when he saw that Lu Bu ignored him at all, he became angry and shouted loudly: "Lu Bu! In front of the Son of Heaven, why don't you dismount! ”

Lu Bu turned his head suddenly, his eyes staring at Fan Chou, making him so frightened that he drew his sword, and the guards around him were also led to raise their weapons by this action.

"Where's Diao?" Lu Bu asked in a low voice as if he hadn't seen it.

"Presumptuous, escorting the Son of Heaven back to the palace at this moment is the right thing, who cares what cicada you are, you ......"

Fan Chou's voice stopped abruptly, because the red rabbit suddenly jumped in front of him, and Lu Bu's painting halberd had already reached his chest.

"Again, where is Diao Chan?"

Since the moment Dong Zhuo died, a closed door in Lu Bu's heart had been opened. Now he doesn't care about anything anymore. If Fan Chou didn't answer the next moment, Lu Bu would kill him without hesitation.

"Earth...... In a secret chamber underground. "As a military general, of course Fan Chou can feel the threat of death, and he will still choose the trade-off between face and life.

Lu Bu didn't talk any more nonsense, and with the reins, Chitu hissed and entered the main hall directly.

"Humph! Reckless! Ben will ...... Ben will be magnanimous and not as knowledgeable as you! Fan Chou struggled to save face.

……

Lu Bu entered the main hall, dismounted and rushed inside, searched left and right, and finally came to the secret room from the steps of the secret door.

Due to the fight above, there is no one to guard it anymore. The door of the secret room tightened, and Lu Bu kicked it open.

In the secret room, dimly lit torches flickered, and there was only one bed. And the woman sitting on the bed looked at Lu Bu in surprise.

"Diao Chan!" The halberd in Lu Bu's hand fell to the ground.

"Bong...... First, my lord. Diao Chan's eyes instantly moistened, and tears poured out like bursting the embankment.

She thought that she would never see Lu Bu again in her life, but this man who had been thinking about it for a long time was standing in front of her at this moment.

Unable to take care of it any longer, Diao Chan threw himself into Lu Bu's arms.

Lu Bu hugged her tightly and stroked her back with his hand, "It's okay, I'm here." ”

"I ...... I thought I would never see you again, I thought ......" Diao Chan cried and looked up at Lu Bu, her mood at this time could not be expressed in words.

Lu Bu didn't intend for her to continue, he grabbed Diao Chan's waist with his right hand, and his left hand interlocked with her right hand, kissing Diao Chan's mouth affectionately.

……

"Your Majesty, the Dong thief is dead, and the ministers are now in control of the situation in Chang'an, and I respectfully ask Your Majesty to return to the palace." As the planner of the thief, Wang Yun didn't want to hide his pride at all, and everyone could hear the ostentatious tone from his voice.

He ...... Is Dong Zhuo really gone? The young emperor Liu Xie's face was not excited. On the contrary, he showed a look of loss.

"Yes! Your Majesty, I have ordered Lu Bu to kill that old thief. Wang Yun said proudly.

"Phew!" Behind him, Cao Xing and Cheng Lian spat at the same time, and Zhang Liao also looked at Wang Yun with disdain.

Wang Yun didn't seem to hear at all, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, now there is no Dong Zhuo's remnant party in Chang'an City, I hope Your Majesty will return to the palace as soon as possible and preside over the overall situation." ”

The emperor sighed, and there was a hint of sadness in his voice, "Okay, go back to the palace." ”

The outskirts of Chang'an.

Cao Ren and Lu Yuan led their men to escort Xun Yu to the woods. There was already a carriage waiting in the woods, and when they saw Cao Ren and they arrived, a man of twenty-eight or nineteen got out of the carriage.

Although Xun You is in prison, he has always been in a good mood, as if he was not the one who committed a big sin, he still eats and drinks every day, so his body is not weak.

When he saw the person getting out of the car, he stepped forward with a smile, "Uncle." ”

The man put his hand on Xun You's shoulder, "Gongda, it's okay." ”

Xun You hurriedly introduced: "Everyone, this is my uncle, Xun Yu, Ziwenruo." This is General Cao Ren, the younger brother of Lord Cao Cao, and this is Lu Yuan, the commander of Chang'an in Yefeng. ”

Xun Yu stepped forward and arched his hand: "Thanks to all of you for your rescue, if you come to the Xun family in the future, you will definitely do your best to help." ”

Cao Ren and Lu Yuan returned the salute: "Sir is polite. It's not a good place to stay for long, so you better leave quickly, we'll have a date later. ”

Xun's uncle and nephew agreed, got into the carriage and left.

Lu Yuan looked at the carriage and walked away, and said faintly: "General Cao, let's leave it at that." ”

"Okay, I hope we'll be friends the next time we meet." Cao Ren took off his hood and said with a smile.

"Hehe, since they all know the Xun family, friends of friends, they are naturally friends." Lu Yuan smiled in response.

……

"Unconsciously, Cao Cao has also become a force to be reckoned with." Lu Yuan turned his back to the subordinates of the branch hall and said casually.

"Divide the system, let's go back too." Feng Xu said behind him.

"Okay. Without Dong Zhuo, I don't know what Chang'an has become now. With that, Lu Yuan prepared to take his subordinates back to Chang'an.

But the moment he turned his head, he saw the three people running quickly on the path, it was Duan Xuan and them.

"Xuan'er!" Lu Yuan hurriedly chased after him and called to stop.

"Lu Division? Why are you here? All three were surprised.

"Oh, we have rescued Xun Yu and escorted him here. Why are you in such a hurry? ”

"We went to the vicinity of Xinfeng today to monitor Li Wei's movements, but found that there was no one there, judging from the horseshoe prints left by the troops, the direction they were traveling should be Chang'an!" Guo Lan said anxiously.

"Not good! He must have known that Dong Zhuo was dead. Fast! Come back with me, and hopefully we'll be able to catch up. Lu Yuan was also a little flustered, he looked up at the sky in the west, the sun had gradually set.

Chang'an, Imperial Palace.

The people in the palace came and went, busy. Plates of delicacies from the mountains and seas are constantly served, and the aroma is overflowing.

Wang Yun was recorded as a scholar because of his meritorious service in eliminating thieves, and he was in charge of the government. In order to celebrate the death of the thief leader Dong Zhuo and the elimination of the evil party in the DPRK, he ordered a banquet to be held in the palace this evening to celebrate with the whole world.

At this moment, he was standing in the middle of the main hall and directing his subordinates to prepare for the feast.

Yang Zan walked in from outside the hall and stood beside Wang Yun.

"General Yang, what's the matter?" Wang Yun turned his head with a smile and asked.

"My lord, I don't know what to do with Dong Zhuo's corpse?"

"yes...... This traitor is causing trouble to the Beijing division and corrupting the dynasty, if he is just showing the head to the public, it seems that he is too cheap. Well, since he always prides himself on shining a light on this great man, it will be good for him. After speaking, Wang Yun's eyes were full of murderous aura.

"Your Excellency is ......," Yang Zan asked in disbelief.

"The old man should have made it very clear." The smile on Wang Yun's face disappeared, and he looked at Yang Zan coldly.

"Yes! The Admiral understood. Yang Zan hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Then ...... What about Lu Bu? ”

"Hehe, spread the word to the counties, and said that Lu Bu betrayed Dong Zhuo because of a woman, and killed him, and the court remembered that he had lost his way and returned home, and he was crowned 'Wenhou'."

"This ...... Why is that? ”

"Humph!" Wang Yun looked at Yang Zan with some disdain, "He is now the first to kill the thief, if he doesn't let him lose his reputation first, we will execute him hastily, I am afraid that the people of the world will say that we are harmful." If the princes first let the princes know that this person is capricious, forgetful of righteousness, and greedy for women, then it will be justified to get rid of him. ”

"The last general...... I see. ”

……

While Wang Yun was making wishful thinking, someone had already begun to act.

————————————————

Yiwu.

"Sister Li'er!" Xu Yuan hugged Zou Li and happily kissed her on the face.

"Sister Yuan, you're okay." When Zou Li saw Xu Yuan, tears welled up in her eyes.

"Sister is fine, silly girl, don't cry."

"Hmm."

……

Zhang Ji looked at the joyful picture of the reunion of the two sisters, smiled slightly, and walked in front of Li Dao.

"General Lee."

Li Dao said expressionlessly: "Is everything going well?" ”

"Dong Min is dead, and Yiwu is now completely controlled by me and Fan Chou. And on the Chang'an side, Dong Zhuo's forces have also been completely cleared. In the afternoon, Wang Yun's old thing took the little emperor back, and the spies just came to report that the city was now busy celebrating, and there was no intention to defend it. ”

"Hehe, a bunch of fools, Dong Zhuo dies, see who can protect them. By the way, has he arrived? ”

"Not yet, but it's coming soon," Zhang Ji smiled, "I should be able to arrive before the time." ”

Li Wei nodded, looked at Chang'an, and a hideous smile appeared on his face.

……

After the tiger died, the wolves began to show their fangs.
