Volume 1 The Beginning of the Late Han Dynasty Chapter 49 Discussion of the Assassination of Dong

The Yellow Gate Shilang Xunyou Mansion is not very far away, and after walking about a stick of incense, you will arrive at Xunfu. When he entered the study, Xun You said: "Two little friends, so, you wait and talk about it in detail." ”

Yan Qing and Qi Zuoyi said: "The villain Yan Qing is Xiaoyi, this is my brother Lehe, and my master is Shouzhang County Ling Song Jiang." My master is loyal and brave, scattering family wealth and gathering heroes, and now he has recruited tens of thousands of elite soldiers and strong generals, responding to the edict of the Son of Heaven, and gathering righteousness and killing Dong together with all towns in the world. In such a military matter, my master did not have to worry about it. Before the villain made the trip, the villain saw that my master was sighing all night, and he couldn't stop crying, and said to the villain: 'If you don't cut down Dong, the court will not be right; However, if you cut Dong, Luoyang will be rested! Then the villain should be driven by the master, sneak into Luoyang, and do everything he can to stop Dong thieves from burning Luoyang and driving away all surnames. ”

Xun You listened, pondered silently, half loud, and said: "Your county order is high-minded, far-reaching, very human, Xun You admires." The thief, the jackal, how to stop it? ”

"The small man is weak and cannot be close to the center. So the villain only begged for the ears of the adults. ”

"Those who stay in Kyoto today have a few people who are truly loyal and courageous, and all of them covet the ears of the powerful. You are so blindly asking for help, and you don't wait to find the character, and you have already been punished. Xun You sneered.

"Mr. Zhong is plotting secrets, Mr. Beggar to save this hundred years of Kyoto, thousands of households and surnames!" Yan Qing bowed deeply, and Le He also followed closely.

Xun You thought for a long time, waved his sleeves, and said, "That's it." The two of you will stay in my house for the time being, and go and find a few people to discuss. ”

Yan Qing was overjoyed, "Thank you, sir." ”

Xun You said: "No need to thank you, this matter is not for you, for my Luoyang century-old prosperity." Someone will take two guests to their room to rest. Then he hurried away.

At night, a servant came to knock on the door of the guest room, Yan Qing went out to take a look, and the servant said, "Two sons, my master has an invitation to the study." ”

Entering the study, Yan Qing saw several adults kneeling and sitting in front of him, and the person in the main seat was the Yellow Gate Squire Xun Yu Xun Gongda. Yan Qing hurriedly rolled up the sleeves of his Confucian robe and bowed down and said, "Xiaomin Yan Qing has seen all the adults. ”

"Princes, this person is under the command of Song Jiang, the commander of Shouzhang County. Yan Qing, Rong introduced the princes present, all of whom were loyal and good ministers. Xun You said.

It turned out that the person sitting opposite Xun You was quite old, with gray hair, thin face, and wrinkles, and was the chief official He Hao He Boqiu; The first person under Xun Yu is about forty years old, with a wide Confucian robe, clear eyebrows, deep and melancholy eyes, and a wide nose and mouth. And the first person who lived under He Hao was wearing a scarf, wearing a plain suit, with a good countenance, a solemn demeanor, and a younger age, was Captain Wood Wood.

Yan Qing made another gesture: "I've seen all of you. ”

He Hao waved his hand and said softly: "Don't be polite, just be obedient." Gongda, let's say, what's the important matter of secretly recruiting us? ”

Xun You arched his hand and said: "Princes, since I learned that Cao Cao's edict was arrogant, you have been thinking about the trend of the court, what Dong Zhuo will do. A certain thought that after Dong Zhuo received the information, he would kill the Yuan family to vent his personal anger, so he went to find the Taifu and the servant, but who knew that the Yuan family furniture was a person who coveted the powerful, and he believed that he was the third prince of the fourth world, and there were many protΓ©gΓ©s, Dong Zhuo did not dare to act rashly. Oh, if you don't listen to a certain word, the Yuan family is fine! ”

"Dong thief is cruel, public knowledge is very clear, hidden British capital, far-sighted, loyal and benevolent, and he is a model for my generation." Zheng Tai Zheng Yilang praised.

Xun You shook his head and said, "Foresight, it is not as good as that Shou Zhang Ling Song Jiang." It is far away from the rivers and lakes, but it can be imagined that Dong Zhuo will kill the Yuan family and send Yan Qing to tell him. ”

He Hao was surprised, glanced at Yan Qing, and said, "Oh, the county order has this vision, and it is indeed very human. ”

Xun You continued: "Princes, today we are urgently recruiting all dukes, not for the Yuan family. Yan Qing, you come and tell you what your lord is worried about. Xun You also looked at Yan Qing.

"Yes, sir." Yan Qing took a few steps forward and arched his hand and said: "My lords, those who are worried about my master, Dong Zhuo will move the capital to Chang'an, burn Luoyang, and move the ears of all the people. ”

"Move the capital?" Everyone was amazed.

He Hao took the lead in speaking out, and said angrily: "Dong thief dares? He is already in control of the government, why is he still donating the temple and abandoning the emperor's mausoleum for no reason, he wants to usurp the rebellion? ”

"Could this come true?" Nawood frowned slightly, but he didn't believe it.

"Princess, what don't you dare to do in Dong Zhuo's heart of a tiger and wolf? A certain self-acquired Yan Qing reminded him and thought about it carefully, nine times out of ten, this matter will come true. At that time, the temple was destroyed, Luoyang and Kyoto were destroyed for hundreds of years, the prosperous scene was all ashes, millions of people migrated to Chang'an, dragged and driven, the dead are uncountable, and there will be corpses all over the ground! "That Xun Yu was originally evaluated by others, and his face showed a sad face, but I can imagine the shock and sorrow in his heart!

He Hao's eyes were split, and he said angrily: "Dong Zhuo thief, if you don't punish his nine clans, it is not enough to relieve my hatred!" ”

Xun You got up and raised his sleeves and clenched his fists, and said solemnly: "Chief Official, Zheng Yilang, Captain Wu." I don't know if I have something to say. ”

When the other three heard this, they couldn't help but get up and salute back, saying, "Gongda, but it's okay to speak." ”

Xun You said solemnly: "Dong Zhuo went against the sky, overthrew the royal family, and even moved the capital to burn the golden gate, the world hated together, and the enemy of all the people." Although he has 20 elite soldiers and 1,000 brave generals, he is still just a barbarian. We can think about it carefully and assassinate him, but we can thank the people of the world and restore the glory of our Han family, and the public can also live forever. ”

He Hao was overjoyed, stroked his gray and white beard and said, "Gongda, what you say is reasonable." ”

Zheng Tai also nodded and said, "Dong Thief is powerful, and he can't be killed unless he is assassinated." ”

Wood, who had a majestic face and a dignified face, flashed his eyes, and he hesitated and said, "Dong Thief is so powerful, how can we assassinate him?" ”

"My lords, this is what we are plotting tonight. Dare to assassinate? How to assassinate? Xun You looked at the other three adults and said solemnly: "Three adults, do you dare to assassinate Dong Zhuo?" For the court, for the salvation of the people? ”

He Hao raised his long gray eyebrows and said, "Can you be this Dong Zhuo, why can't you donate my stump body?" ”

Zheng Tai also clasped his fists into the sky and said: "Now that the royal family is blinded, we and other loyal people should stand up." ”

Na Wood still hesitated: "Dong thief is powerful, he is well defended day and night, and Wu Fu and Cao Cao assassinated first, so I can't wait."

He Hao sneered: "I'm afraid Bird is not reluctant to give up his own set of wealth." If you're afraid, go back, just look at our love for many years, don't report us. ”

Wood was furious: "How can Chief He look down on Wu, if the public dares to serve the country, he will not succeed?" He turned to Xun You and said, "Gongda, you have a good plan, just say it." ”

"Princess, you and I have been friends for many years, and we all know each other, so we don't have to be like this." Xun You said: "There is a certain strategy, say it and listen to the public." ”

"That Dong Zhuo is unreasonable, often stays in the harem at night, and fornicates with the royal family. And a certain person is a waiter at the Yellow Gate, a close servant of the Son of Heaven, and he also has the convenience of entering and exiting the forbidden middle. We summoned the dead soldiers, entered the palace in advance, and then observed, waited for the Dong thief to enter the palace, and waited for the opportunity to stab him closely. ”

He Hao nodded and said, "Dong Zhuo is tightly guarded, and it is difficult to get close to him, so he can only hear this." ”

Everyone then high-fived, toasted, and then left.

Yan Qing waited for the rest of the adults to leave, and smiled bitterly at Xun You: "Sir, is it possible to succeed in such an assassination?" I'm afraid of killing myself. ”

Xun You shook his head, but his eyes were firm and said, "I know that I can't do it." If you want to stop the relocation of the capital, you have to remove Dong Zhuo. We have no strong soldiers, only assassination. I don't regret dying. ”

"Mr. Loyalty." Yan Qing bowed heavily, and then said: "Xiao Yi begged, begging Mr. to hide with Xiao Yi for the past two days." If the wind and waves are calm after two days, the gentleman will assassinate him again. ”

"Why?" Xun You's essence flashed.

"Xiao Yi can trust Mr." Yan Qing said solemnly: "However, a few adults still have to guard against it. ”

"They've all made friends for years." Xun Yu hesitated.

"The heart of guarding against people is indispensable, and Mr. is wise enough to speculate on various consequences." Yan Qing said.

Xun You thought for a moment and said, "Okay, so-and-so will hide with you for two days." After two days, nothing happened, which can prove the loyalty of us and a few others. ”

"I'll do it tonight." Yan Qing was in hot pursuit.

"Okay, just listen to Xiaoyou." Xun You smiled, "Xiaoyou is thoughtful, it can be seen that your county order is intelligent." ”

The next day, Luoyang, Imperial Palace.

After more than 200 years of construction, the Han Palace at this time was magnificent and majestic. The palace is divided into the south palace and the north palace, which are located in the north and south of Luoyang City respectively, and the middle distance is seven miles, and the two palaces are connected by the compound road. The main hall of the South Palace is the Deyang Palace, the hall is three zhang high, His Majesty is one zhang high, and can accommodate 10,000 people. The top of the hall is covered with yellow glazed tiles, inlaid with green trimming, the two bright pillars in front of the main hall are carved with the figure of a strange beast, there is a pond around the hall, the jade step Zhu Liang, the altar is made of grain stone, the wall is decorated with colorful paintings, the gold is brilliant.

There are a few cases on the jade majesty in the middle of this Deyang Palace, and a few later are sitting on the young son of heaven. This young son of heaven is the Han Emperor Liu Xie, who was nine years old at the time, and was just last year as Dong Zhuo and was established as the son of heaven by Chen Liuwang. He was still small in stature and had a young face, but he was wearing layers of gorgeous tiara and crown, and his body was straight but his eyes were dull looking down.

At this time, it was the time of the court meeting, and hundreds of ministers were lined up on both sides of the hall in formal clothes, but they were silent, looking out with bated breath.

Suddenly, I heard the golden gourd warrior outside the hall shouting: "The master has arrived!" A bloated figure strode into the main hall with several samurai. I saw that this man was about fifty or sixty years old, tall and bloated, with a big belly and poop, a full face and beard, dressed in fine clothes, but with a hideous complexion and fierce eyes.

The ministers in the hall were dressed one after another, and then bowed in unison and shouted, "See the Grand Master." ”

It turned out that this person was the Taishi Dong Zhuo, he ignored the ministers, and walked straight to the Jade Majesty in the main hall, so frightened that the Han Emperor Liu Xie, who knelt down and sat on the Jade Majesty for a few cases, stood up hurriedly, bowed and saluted and trembled and said: "Taishi......"
