Seeing Dong Zhuo's kind invitation, Liu Yi and Cao Cao couldn't refuse, so they could only sit down at the banquet.

After everyone staggered, Liu Yi gave Guan Yu a color behind him.

I saw Guan Yu take out a pocket from his arms and hand it to Liu Yi.

Liu Yi took the pocket handed over by Guan Yu, and then got up and bowed respectfully to Dong Zhuo on the main seat.

"Lord Sikong, Xia Guan has just arrived, and I don't know what Lord Sikong likes, when he killed Gongsun Chan before, he had plundered a few pieces of Hu people's jewelry on his body, which is not a bit of meaning, not a respect, and I hope Lord Sikong will not dislike it."

As he spoke, Liu Yi respectfully lifted the pocket in his hand to his head.

Dong Zhuo on the main seat was in a good mood at this time, and when he heard that Liu Yi was going to offer a treasure, Dong Zhuo was overjoyed.

"Hahaha~ Liu Duwei has a heart! Bring it up and show it to our family! Dong Zhuo said with a laugh.

The subordinates who were waiting for the wine bureau in the hall heard Dong Zhuo's words, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the pocket in Liu Yi's hand, and then respectfully handed it to Dong Zhuo.

There are not any rare treasures in the pockets, but they are all gadgets unique to the Wuhuan people.

Dong Zhuo took out a few small objects in his pocket and looked at them curiously, because he had never seen them, so Dong Zhuo was very curious and fond of these small objects.

"Hahaha~ Our family has been in Liangzhou for most of their lives, and there are Huqiang all around us, but I have never seen anything in Wuhuan, and seeing it today is an eye-opener!" Dong Zhuo Avenue.

After playing for a while, Dong Zhuo was a little interested.

Putting down the pocket in his hand, Dong Zhuo flicked his fat sleeves and looked at Liu Yi with a smile.

"Liu Duwei's small gift, our family is very satisfied! Listening to Meng De, Liu Duwei has the intention of taking refuge in our family, and since this is the case, then our family can't help but express it. ”

After saying that, Dong Zhuo looked at his body, and after touching it for a long time, he didn't touch anything, and suddenly his face was a little unbearable.

In the end, Dong Zhuo hesitated for a long time, and in desperation, he hugged a beautiful woman beside him, looked at Liu Yi and said earnestly, "This little lady was brought by me from Bingzhou, and her favorite is usually her ......."

Looking at Dong Zhuo's reluctant expression, before Dong Zhuo finished speaking, Liu Yi hurriedly interrupted, "Lord Sikong, this is unacceptable!" Where can the adult's beloved concubine Xiaguan climb, besides, Xiaguan already has a wife in his family, and before leaving, Xiaguan's wife also specially instructed Xiaguan not to come to Luoyang not to mess with flowers and grass, if Xiaguan really brings back a woman, I'm afraid he will have to be kicked out when he gets home! ”

Dong Zhuo didn't want to give that woman to Liu Yi, what he did just now was purely helpless, but at this time, seeing that Liu Yi directly refused, Dong Zhuo was overjoyed.

"Hahaha~ I didn't expect the famous Liu Duwei to be afraid of his wife!"

After Dong Zhuo finished speaking, Cao Cao, Li Ru and others in the hall also laughed.

"Since Liu Duwei is in trouble, then our family will not embarrass you! Say it yourself, what kind of reward do you want? Dong Zhuo laughed and said to Liu Yi.

Hearing this, Liu Yi was a little happy in his heart, and after pretending to hesitate, he said respectfully to Dong Zhuo with some embarrassment, "My lord, before coming down, I brought five hundred attendants to protect the lower officials, because of the imperial decree, at this time, these five hundred people can only be stationed outside the city, and the lower officials are bold, and want to bring these five hundred attendants into the city to take care of the homes and courtyards for the lower officials, I don't know if the adults can agree?" ”

As soon as he heard Liu Yi say that he was going to bring his guards into the city, Dong Zhuo frowned suddenly.

The atmosphere was very quiet. No one spoke.

There was a stalemate for a few minutes, and without waiting for Dong Zhuo to speak, Li Ru on the side stood up.

"Since Lord Liu wants to find some people to come to the family care home, why don't you let Lord Sikong send some soldiers and servants?" Li Ru looked at Liu Yi with a smile on his face and said.

Hearing Li Ru's words, Liu Yi couldn't help but curse in his heart, "Li Ru, this guy is really a bad stomach!" ”

Although he thought so in his heart, Liu Yi made an embarrassed look on the surface.

"Sir doesn't know, these attendants of mine are my usual guards at home, and I am used to it, and I am still a little uncomfortable with the cold replacement of the lower officials, so when Brother Meng De said yesterday that he wanted to send me a servant, the lower officials also refused!"

"Oh? Is this really the case with Mende? Dong Zhuo looked at Cao Cao with a serious face and asked.

Cao Cao, who was on the side, hurriedly stood up when he heard this, bowed to Dong Zhuo, and then replied, "This is indeed the case!" ”。

Dong Zhuo has always trusted Cao Cao, and seeing that Cao Cao also said so, Dong Zhuo nodded, and his expression softened.

Just when Dong Zhuo hesitated, Li Ru on the side had to open his mouth to make things difficult for Liu Yi.

At this time, Liu Yi was drifting at Li Ru with his residual light, and seeing that he had the intention of opening his mouth, Liu Yi hurriedly said first, "My lord, Xia Guan drank too much just now, and what he said was nonsense, don't take it seriously, my lord." Let the attendants wait outside the city, don't embarrass the adults because of this little thing! ”

After speaking, Liu Yi bent down and picked up the wine glass on his table, raised the wine glass and said to Dong Zhuo respectfully, "My lord, this glass of wine is all the official's reparation to your lord!" ”

Looking at Liu Yi's sincere appearance, Dong Zhuo laughed twice.

"Where did Liu Duwei say this! Hundreds of servants are enough, and our master can still do this! ”

Seeing Dong Zhuo let go, without waiting for Li Ru to open his mouth to stop him, Liu Yi bent over and bowed, "Thank you, my lord!" ”

Dong Zhuo was stunned when he heard this, and then pointed at Liu Yi and laughed.

"Lord Lieutenant is really cunning!"

Dong Zhuo's words provoked a big uproar among the people present

Laugh.

After the banquet, Liu Yi took Guan Yu and Xi Zhicai to say goodbye to Dong Zhuo and walked back to the house. Before leaving, Liu Yi also deliberately asked Dong Zhuo for a handwritten letter to lead the troops into the city.

Soon after Liu Yi left, Cao Cao and others gradually left Dong Zhuo's mansion, and only a few people such as Li Ru remained with Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo, who was full of wine and food, leaned on the bed and hummed a little song there with his belly pat on his belly.

"My lord, I still think it's a bit inappropriate to let Liu Yi lead troops into the city, after all, it's five hundred, not a small number!"

At this time, Li Ru had not forgotten Liu Yi's request to bring troops into the city, and took the opportunity to serve tea to Dong Zhuo, Li Ru brought up the matter again.

Hearing Li Ru's words, Dong Zhuo took the tea handed over by Li Ru, took a sip, and then said, "It's just five hundred!" Our family doesn't take it to heart, our family has three thousand flying bear troops in our hands, plus the old department of He Jin brought by my brother Dong, even if Liu Yi has a different heart, how can he bear me? ”

It is said that the Flying Bear Army is Dong Zhuo's personal elite army, and the flag is embroidered with a flying bear pattern with ribbed wings, and is led by Dong Zhuo's henchmen Li and Guo Yan.

The Flying Bear Army is all composed of elites and capable people in the Xiliang Army, such as Hu Che'er in Dong Zhuo's army, which is said to be "able to carry 500 catties and travel 700 miles a day"; The Flying Bear Army is very well-equipped, with Xiliang Iron Cavalry and Xiliang soldiers who often fight with foreign tribes, and its combat effectiveness is very strong. It can be said that at that time, it was a unique existence that could compete with Gongsun Zhan's White Horse Yi.

Seeing Dong Zhuo's confident appearance, Li Ru knew that it was not appropriate to persuade him again, so he began to think about other things.

After thinking for a while, Li Ru suddenly had a flash of inspiration and came up with another bad move.

"My lord, you don't need five hundred people at all for a nursing home, why don't you wait for Liu Yi to bring the soldiers into the city, how about we detain three hundred people first? In this way, not only can the hidden dangers be eliminated, but also the opportunity to understand the combat capability of Liu Yi's army! After all, it is a team that can defeat Gongsun Zhan and Baima Yicong, so I think Liu Yi must have a special way to govern the army! ”

Hearing Li Ru's words, Dong Zhuo's eyes also lit up.

"Wenyou's suggestion is very good! Gongsun Zhan's kid's Bai Ma Yi was not fortunate enough to see it from our family, but it would be good if we could accommodate a few soldiers under Liu Yi! Dong Zhuo applauded.

Seeing that Dong Zhuo had the idea of snatching Liu Yi's soldiers, Jia Xu, who had been quiet on the side, walked over respectfully.

"My lord, although Brother Wenyou's strategy is good, it has a lot of disadvantages!"

Dong Zhuo and Li Ru, who were happy at this time, stopped laughing when they heard Jia Xu's words.

Although Jia Xu is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu's military advisor, in the past, when Li Ru was not there, Dong Zhuo would often call Jia Xu to discuss matters whenever he had something. But since Li Ru's arrival, the situation has changed a lot.

Because Li Ru is more likely to follow Dong Zhuo's thoughts. Originally, Jia Xu, who was by Dong Zhuo's side and whose status was not too high, was suddenly compared to Li Ru later, but fortunately, Li Ru has not yet shown his talent in military affairs, otherwise I am afraid that Jia Xu's situation will be even more embarrassing.

Jia Xu and Li Ru seem to respect each other on the surface, but behind the scenes, they are not so harmonious.

"Oh? Then I don't know what Brother Wen and Brother have high opinions? Li Ru asked angrily.

Hearing this, Jia Xu on the side didn't even look at Li Ru, and only said respectfully to Dong Zhuo, "My lord, Liu Yi first came to Luoyang, although he had the intention of getting closer to the adult, but he was not familiar with each other, and he would definitely take more precautions. ”

Hearing this, Dong Zhuo thought about it and nodded.

"Well, there is indeed some truth in Wen He's words! When the time comes, others will definitely take advantage of this to chew the root of their tongue behind their backs! ”

When Li Ru on the side heard this, he hurriedly made a statement, only to see Dong Zhuoyi stretch out his hand to stop Li Ru.

"Forget it, forget it! Since you have promised Liu Yi, let him go! We're not the kind of people who go back on their word! Dong Zhuo shouted nonchalantly.

"Your Excellency is wise!" Jia Xu took the opportunity to compliment.

After Liu Yi and the three of them left Dong Zhuo's mansion, they didn't dare to delay, and ran directly to the city gate, and after arriving at the city gate, Liu Yi took Dong Zhuo's handwritten book to the soldiers guarding the door.

At this time, most of the defenders in the city were Dong Zhuo's subordinates, and when they saw Dong Zhuo's instructions, those soldiers did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly opened the city gate and let Liu Yi's five hundred poisonous scorpions outside the city in.

Looking at the five hundred poisonous scorpions, standing in front of him one by one, Liu Yi's heart finally settled down.

"Now I don't have to be afraid of Dong Zhuo's old thief playing yin!" Liu Yi thought in his heart.

Afterwards, Liu Yi and the three of them walked towards their house with five hundred poisonous scorpions.

Before he could reach the front of the house, Liu Yi saw a person in front of his house holding a horse and waiting for him.

There is no need to look at it, Liu Yi also knows that this person must be Cao Cao.

"Brother Meng De, is this specially waiting here?" Liu Yi walked up to Cao Cao and said with a smile.

Cao Cao laughed when he saw this, pointed to the five hundred poisonous scorpions behind Liu Yi and said, "I have heard from the people in the north that Brother Yi has an elite army under his command that terrifies the enemy. ”

Hearing this, Liu Yi didn't reply, but just laughed twice as a tacit acquiescence.

Seeing that Liu Yi acquiesced to his conjecture, Cao Cao hurriedly stepped forward and took a closer look at the five hundred poisonous scorpions.

After looking at it for a while, Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Sure enough, it's the elite of the elite!" No wonder Gongsun Chan will be defeated at the hands of Brother Yi! ”

I saw that at this time, five hundred poisonous scorpions were being made

Standing neatly behind Liu Yi, even in the face of Cao Cao's praise, everyone still looked ahead expressionlessly, as if they were emotionless sculptures.

"Meng De said it was funny!" Liu Yi replied, then pointed to the mansion and said to Cao Cao, "If Meng De has time, why don't you enter the mansion and talk about it?" ”

"Then it's going to be bothered!"

"Brother Mengde, please!"

"Brother Yi, please!"

Then the two entered Liu Yi's mansion.

Under the arrangement of Guan Yu and Xi Zhicai, the five hundred poisonous scorpions spread all around Liu Yi's mansion within a few minutes and began to stand up.

At this time, Liu Yi and Cao Cao were already sitting in the lobby and began to drink tea.

"Brother Yi, now in Luoyang City, except for Lord Dong, I'm afraid you are the only one who has soldiers in your hands, and it can be seen that Lord Dong really values Brother Yi!" After Cao Cao took a sip of tea, he said to Liu Yi with a smile.

Liu Yi, who is familiar with the Three Kingdoms, knows a lot about what happened after Dong Zhuo, and also knows that Cao Cao's defection to Dong Zhuo is not sincere at all.

"Dong Zhuo can let me lead troops into the city, I'm afraid he wants me to support him in abolishing the young emperor, right?" Liu Yi drank tea while talking, and did not forget to look at Cao Cao with his spare eyes when he spoke.

As Liu Yi expected, after hearing Liu Yi call Dong Zhuo by his name, Cao Cao's face really changed slightly.

"Doesn't Brother Yi want to support Lord Dong's proposition?" Cao Cao's chicken thief asked Liu Yi rhetorically.

Liu Yi is not stupid, how can he be fooled by Cao Cao, after laughing, Liu Yi looked at Cao Cao with a wicked smile and said, "I can be courteous to Lord Dong, thanks to the help of Brother Meng De, now that I have entered the city, of course, Brother Meng De is the first to look forward, Brother Meng De supports, I Liu Yi will definitely support!" ”

Hearing this, the two looked at each other and laughed, and no one mentioned the topic just now.

Although the two did not answer each other's questions, they already knew each other's thoughts.

In the next few days, Liu Yi and Cao Cao went to visit Dong Zhuo together every day.

After a long period of contact, the relationship between Liu Yi and Cao Cao has become deeper and deeper.

Just this morning, Liu Yi came to Dong Zhuo's house again.

Because Liu Yi has always shown a respectful attitude towards Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo gradually eliminated his wariness of Liu Yi.

Everyone talked happily, and even Li Ru no longer spoke to embarrassed Liu Yi.

"Our family has ordered someone to send an invitation to the civil and military officials, inviting everyone to go to Wenmingyuan tomorrow to discuss matters, most of them have already replied to our family, expressing their willingness to come, but Cui Lie's house has not replied to the old man!" When it came to Cui Lie, Dong Zhuo was angry.

On the same day, Dong Zhuo welcomed the young emperor back to the dynasty, and it was Cui Lie who advocated that Dong Zhuo withdraw his troops in front of the city gate. Moreover, after Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, Cui Lie also relied on his position as Situ and often opposed Dong Zhuo in the court. Dong Zhuo wanted to kill him for a long time, but there was no legitimate reason, and now seeing that Cui Lie did not reply to his invitation, Dong Zhuo became murderous again.

Li Ru, who is good at observing words and feelings, saw Dong Zhuo like this, and he thought about it with a turn of his eyes.

"My lord, my subordinates have heard that some officials are secretly plotting to murder your lord, and the leader is Cui Lie, why don't you take this opportunity to get rid of Cui Lie?" Li Ru got up and spoke.

After a few days of observation, Liu Yi already has a certain understanding of Li Ru, and now that Li Ru has offered advice to Dong Zhuo again, Liu Yi can't help but think in his heart, "Li Ru is really vicious!" ”

Thinking about it, Liu Yi also glanced at Jia Xu who was sitting on the side.

"Later generations said that Jia Xu was a poisoner, and I saw that Li Ru was not inferior to Jia Xu in terms of poison! It seems that you should be careful of this person in the future! Liu Yi couldn't help but start to be wary of Li Rulai.

After listening to Li Ru's words, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but be furious: "These bunch of miscellaneous pieces! The old man rectified the dynasty and devoted himself to the country, but no one dared to murder the old man? ”

After scolding, Dong Zhuo pointed at Li Yu and Guo Yan and said, "You two will go and arrest Cui Lie for me immediately!" ”

The next day, in Wenming Garden.

Early in the morning, Liu Yi took Guan Yu, Xi Zhicai and Cao Cao to Wenmingyuan.

At this time, Dong Zhuo had not yet arrived, but there were already more than a dozen people in Wen Mingyuan.

These people are all important members of the imperial court, and after Cao Cao's introduction, Liu Yi greeted everyone.

Among them, Liu Yi is most interested, one is Wang Yun, an old minister in his sixties, and the other is Ding Yuan, who is in charge of the forbidden army outside the city.

is interested in Wang Yun, on the one hand, because Liu Yi knew that it was because of this person that Dong Zhuo was finally killed, and on the other hand, because of Wang Yun's righteous daughter "Diao Chan".

As a normal man, who doesn't want to see the appearance of the famous beauty Diao Chan, so Liu Yi also deliberately got close to Wang Yun for a while.

The reason why Liu Yi is interested in Ding Yuan is not because of a woman, but because of a strong man around him.

I saw that the strong man was seven feet tall, with a thin waist tied to his back, his shoulders were folded, his face was like Fu Fan, his sword eyebrows were closed into the sky and his forehead was inserted into his beard, a pair of handsome eyes were clear, his nose was like a jade pillar, his mouth was like a Danzhu, and his big ears were facing his arms; Wearing a bright silver crown, two dragons and treasures, the top door is inlaid with pearls, the brilliance is shining, the pheasant tail, and the back of the head is fluttering; Wearing a pink silk flower robe, with gold edges, gold threads, group flowers, a royal blue silk belt tied at the waist, inlaid with pearls, inlaid with foreign treasures, pink silk pocket trousers, a pair of pink silk flying cloud combat boots under his feet, and a sword under his ribs, standing there is majestic and majestic.

Seeing his appearance, Liu Yi knew that this person must be Lu Bu, who ranked first in force in the Three Kingdoms!
