The time goes back to April of the second year of Yuan Xi.

After Ding Yuan was killed and Lü Bu surrendered to Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo had completely controlled the military power in Luoyang.

But the hundreds of officials in the court despised Dong Zhuo, and once Dong Zhuo invited hundreds of officials to a banquet, but no one was present, which made Dong Zhuo very angry.

Later, above the court, Dong Zhuo led the troops into the main hall, and if anyone refuted him, he was all arrested and put in prison.

After this incident, the officials either said that they were sick at home, or they did not say a word in the court.

Seeing this, Dong Zhuo became more and more domineering.

Bao Xin, the former staff member of the General's Mansion, proposed a plan to kill Dong Zhuo together with Yuan Shao, but Yuan Shao did not dare, so Bao Xin abandoned the official and fled, preparing to gather troops in his hometown to crusade against Dong Zhuo.

In May, Dong Zhuo disliked that his official position was too small, and asked the imperial court to remove Sikong Liu Hong, and he took over as one of the three dukes.

But even so, Dong Zhuo was not satisfied.

This is Li Ru's plan to make him do the abolition of the establishment in order to increase his prestige.

Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, was originally raised by the Empress Dowager Dong, and Dong Zhuo thought that he was a member of the Empress Dowager Dong's clan, and he also liked Liu Xie more than Liu Yan.

So Dong Zhuo summoned Taifu Yuan Kui with the edict he had obtained from Liu Xie.

Yuan Kui brought his nephew Yuan Shao to meet him.

After showing the edict to Yuan Kui, Dong Zhuo said: "The first emperor loved the Emperor's Association, but the general He Jin supported the emperor to identify the emperor, and we should obey the edict of the first emperor and change the Emperor's Association to the emperor." ”

Yuan Kui said noncommittally: "I don't know the authenticity of this edict, not to mention that Your Majesty has succeeded to the throne, how can we talk about the abolition of the legislature?" ”

Yuan Shao, who was on the side, suddenly interjected at this time: "I'm afraid this matter is Sikong's meaning, I don't think anyone in the world will agree with it." ”

Dong Zhuo was furious when he heard this: "Zhuzi, how can you speak here, and the affairs of the world are not decided by me alone?" Who dares to disobey, do you want to test that my blade is not sharp?"

Yuan Shao sneered: "The affairs of the world are decided by Lord Sikong alone? How shameful is it? ”

After speaking, Yuan Shao turned around and left Dong Zhuo's mansion.

Although Dong Zhuo wanted to be angry, he gave up because of Yuan Shao's reputation and Taifu Sikong's dissuasion.

But Yuan Kui also agreed to Dong Zhuo's abolition, and Yuan Shao also escaped from Luoyang at Yuan Kui's suggestion and returned to Bohai County in Jizhou.

On the second day, Dong Zhuo summoned other civil and military officials to compare Huo Guang and Tian Yannian with Huo Guang and Tian Yannian, and pre-abolished the establishment.

Seeing that the courtyard was full of soldiers with fierce eyes, no one dared to object, only Lu Zhi stepped forward and opposed this matter.

"In the past, Liu He was incompetent, absurd, and unscrupulous, and did not protect the society, and the general Huo Guangcai did the abolition of the establishment, and now that His Majesty has just ascended the throne, there is no fault, and you want to abolish it with an edict that does not know the authenticity of the will?"

Dong Zhuo was speechless by Lu Zhi's question, and in a fit of rage, he directly arrested Lu Zhi and put him in prison.

Later, under the persuasion of Cai Yong and others, Lu Zhi was released, and Lu Zhi also resigned and went to Luoyang immediately.

On May 9, Shangshuding Palace presided over the abolition ceremony.

Taifu Yuan Kui personally helped Liu Bian off the throne, handed over the seal of Yiying to Liu Xie, and then helped Liu Xie to ascend to the throne.

At the same time, let Ding Gong read out the policy, and relieved the Empress Dowager He to listen to the government, because she plotted to kill the Empress Dowager Dong, and moved into Yong'an Palace (Cold Palace).

At the same time, the country name was changed to the second year of Yuanxi to the first year of Chuping.

Three days later, Empress Dowager He was killed, and Dong Zhuo did not allow the imperial court to hold a funeral for her.

However, when the body of the Empress Dowager He was buried with Emperor Ling of Han and opened the imperial tomb, he sent people into the imperial tomb to collect the treasures in it.

After that, Dong Zhuoyao named Liu Yu, who was far away in Youzhou, as the Great Sima and took the position of Taiwei himself.

And gave himself the tiger and axe in the nine tins, and named him the Marquis.

ps: Jiuxi is the highest courtesy that the emperor bestows on his courtiers, and the tiger and the axe are two of them.

In order to expand his influence, Dong Zhuo, together with Sikong Yang Biao and others, asked the imperial court to rehabilitate many party members in the "second party disaster" and promote their children and grandchildren to officials.

Therefore, some people began to take refuge in Dong Zhuo.

At the suggestion of the strategist Li Ru, Dong Zhuo began to get close to the scholars and recruited famous people to enter the court as officials, among which Dong Zhuo's most trusted person was Cai Yong.

Even Dong Zhuo didn't care about his previous suspicions, and appointed Bao Xin and Yuan Shao, who had disobeyed him at the beginning, as local guards.

Since Dong Zhuo's power has become more and more stable.

But with the gradual increase of power, Dong Zhuo began to act unscrupulously.

He connived at his subordinates to rob the rich families in Luoyang City, loot their property, and rape ** women.

At the beginning of June, Dong Zhuo proclaimed himself Xiangguo again, and had the privilege of entering the court and going to the palace with a sword, and at this time Dong Zhuo's power was already greater than that of the general He Jin.

Because of this, Dong Zhuo became more and more arrogant, and when he saw something that did not go well, no matter what official position the other party was, he would kill him directly.

When the servant Shi disturbed the dragon sect and forgot to remove the sword when he visited Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo took advantage of the problem and ordered him to be beaten to death.

Because he had a festival with He Miao, the general of the chariot cavalry, Dong Zhuo directly ordered that He Miao's body be dug up and discarded in the garden at will.

He Jin, He Miao, and Empress Dowager He's mother Wu Yangjun were also killed.

Many people who were not accustomed to Dong Zhuo's actions left Luoyang one after another, returned to their hometowns to recruit troops and prepare to rebel against Dong Zhuo.

Dongjun Taishou Qiaomao forged the Three Public Documents and distributed them to various prefectures and counties, stating Dong Zhuo's evil deeds, and calling on all localities to raise troops to crusade against Dong Zhuo and restore Liu Bian's throne.

At this time, Cao Cao, who had already arrived at Chen Liu, took the lead in responding, and he directly distributed a text to prepare to form a coalition to defeat Dong Zhuo.

Cao Cao knew that his prestige was not enough, so he supported Yuan Shao, who had the background of the fourth and third dukes, as the leader of the alliance, and officials from all over the country responded.

By September, the seventeenth princes had arrived outside the Tiger Prison Pass.

Later general Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu 35,000.

Jizhou Mu Hanfu army of 20,000 people.

Yuzhou Mu Kongling's army was 23,000 people.

Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai's army was 28,000 people.

Hanoi County Taishou Wang Kuang's army was 11,000 people.

Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao's army of 15,000 people.

Dongjun Taishou Qiao Mao's army was 19,000 people.

Shanyang guarded Yuan's army of 20,000.

Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin's army was 9,000 people.

Beihai Taishou Kongrong army of 8,000 people.

Guangling guarded Zhang Chao's army of 12,000 people.

Beiping Taishou Gongsun Zan army of 15,000 people.

Shangdang guarded Zhang Yang's army of 19,000 people.

Changsha guarded Sun Jian's army of 22,000 people.

Bohai Taishou Yuan Shao's army of 25,000 men.

Cao Cao's army of 11,000 people.

Xuzhou Mu Taoqian army of 20,000 people.

The coalition forces totaled more than 312,000 people, and the follow-up troops were still on their way.

Compared with Dong Zhuo, who has 300,000 troops, the coalition army has a certain advantage in terms of strength.

At this time, Qin Hua had also received Cao Cao's invitation, and he led an army of 50,000 from Liangzhou to Tongguan.

Just when Qin Hua had just set up camp, Qin Hua saw a young dragon slowly rising into the air in the distance, hovering in the air for a few times before letting out a wail and turning into a little starlight.

Qin Hua thought he was dazzled, and he hurriedly asked Jia Xu on the side if he had seen a young dragon rise into the air.

Jia Xu looked into the distance in confusion, but saw nothing.

Suddenly, Jia Xu said to Qin Hua: "Didn't the lord learn some kind of qi technique?" ”

At this time, Qin Hua remembered that he and Zuo Ci had learned a magic of Wangqi, but he hadn't used it for a long time, and he almost forgot it.

After Jia Xu listened to what Qin Hua saw, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Hongnong King Liu Fan is estimated to have died. ”

Qin Hua didn't know why, Jia Xu explained: "At this time, the coalition of princes is under the banner of restoring the throne of Liu Bian, the king of Hongnong, and I think that Dong Zhuo has killed the king of Hongnong in order to decide the idea of the alliance. ”

Qin Hua couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, Liu Wei is only thirteen years old this year, what is the fault of a child.
