215 Thorn Dong
After occupying Qingzhou and Jizhou, although Liu Bei did not fully control Jizhou, occupying the land of the two states was also a big step ahead of the princes of the world, and it could be called complacent.
Soon, Lu Zhi died, and left his last words before he died, "The world is difficult, when the festival funeral is the best, just a thin-skinned coffin, and the clothes can be buried!" ”
So, Liu Bei really came to a festival funeral under the sign of Lu Zhi's last words, but he was dressed in white and kept filial piety for him for three months. said that he was filial piety, but he didn't eat meat or drink, and he would never lose his official position. He also took the young son left by Lu Zhi to Jizhou, which can be regarded as taking care of the descendants of his master Lu Zhi.
Liu Bei was proud, and Kong Rong, who was fooled by Liu Bei, had a feeling of being powerful and had nowhere to start after going to Chang'an.
On the surface, Wang Yun was very polite to Kong Rong, but Wang Yun didn't trust him, Wang Yun didn't doubt Kong Rong's character, but Wang Yun didn't trust Kong Rong's ability to keep secrets, so Kong Rong said several times that he wanted to get rid of Dong Zhuo, Wang Yun was a master of Dong Taishi who had great merit to the country, and I personally had great kindness and great virtue.
The princes of the Chang'an court want to assassinate Dong Zhuo for a long time, and there are smart people in this world that Liu Bei relies on knowing historical development to know that assassinating Dong Zhuo is the only correct way out, and some people are based on their own observations, and the assassination of Dong Zhuo is the right choice, this person is Xun You.
Xun You is really worthy of being relied on by Cao Cao as the "mastermind", and he can see the real crux of the situation at a glance. Dong Zhuo did not have many henchmen in Chang'an, and even in the Guanzhong area, his main henchmen Qu, Niu Fu was deployed between Chang'an and Luoyang, and Li Dao, Guo Yan, Jia Xu and others led the army to the east to conquer Yuzhou and Yanzhou, all of which were far away from Chang'an.
He said to everyone: "Dong Zhuo has no way, even more than the stubborn, the world complains about it, although he is a strong soldier, he is really a horseman." Now he assassinated him to thank the people, and then according to the food and letters, he assisted the king's order to order the world, and this Huan and Wen also moved. ”
Xun You's opinion is that as long as you send someone to assassinate Dong Zhuo directly, as soon as Dong Zhuo dies, send troops to guard the Hangu Pass and other passes, block Niu Fu and others from returning to Chang'an in the west, and at the same time order the world with the imperial court, and great things can be done!
Judging from Xun You's words, he is also an ambitious person.
In order to assassinate Dong Zhuo, Xun You had several comrades, namely Zheng Tai, He Hao, Shizhong Chongji, and Wu Fu, the captain of the Yue Cavalry, headed by He Hao.
The person who carried out the assassination plan was Captain Wu Fu of the Yue Cavalry, who was "qualitatively resolute, brave and righteous, and capable of both people".
One day, Wu Fu hid a short knife in his robe, and found Dong Zhuo claiming to have something to report, Dong Zhuo didn't know that Wu Fu was going to assassinate him, and after Wu Fu reported, Dong Zhuo personally saw Wu Fu off in order to show his closeness, and the two walked side by side.
While walking, Dong Zhuo also patted Wu Fu on the shoulder to express intimacy.
At this time, Wu Fu suddenly pulled out a short knife and stabbed Dong Zhuo, seeing that Dong Zhuo was about to escape!
Who knows, Dong Zhuo has been through a hundred battles and has fought on the battlefield for many years, although he is now old and has become a dead fat man, he is a flexible dead fat man. In the face of the short knife stabbed by Wu Fu, he was not in a hurry, took a few steps back, dodged, and then, Dong Zhuo shouted to the guards around him to subdue Wu Fu.
After Wu Fu was restrained, Dong Zhuo shouted: "Do you want to rebel?!" ”
Wu Fu said loudly: "You are not my king, I am not your minister, why not?" You thief is a usurper of the country, and your sins are great, so I have come to kill you, a traitor! I hate to tear you up in the city to thank the world. ”
Hearing this, Dong Zhuo was furious and ordered someone to hack Wu Fu to death with a knife and dismantle eight pieces.
When Wu Fu died, Dong Zhuo regretted it again, he knew that Wu Fu must have an accomplice, but Wu Fu died, so he had to order someone to track down Wu Fu's comrades.
He Hao and Xun You were all arrested because of their good friendship with Wu Fu on weekdays.
Among them, He Hao was the leader of these people, he thought that he could not escape death, and he was unwilling to be humiliated, so he simply committed suicide in prison.
Xun You was very calm, he knew that Wu Fu died on the spot, and there was no proof of death. Therefore, Xun You "spoke and ate freely" in prison, and showed that he had nothing to do with the "Dong Assassination Case", so that although Dong Zhuo also knew that Xun You had dealings with Wu Fu, there were many people who had dealings with Wu Fu, and Dong Zhuo could not be sure that Xun You was involved in the "Dong Assassination Case", so he put it on hold. After Dong Zhuo was killed by Lu Bu and Wang Yun, Xun You was released.
Xun You's behavior fully explains to us what it means to "confess leniently and sit in prison." Resist strictness and go home for the New Year!! ”
As for Zheng Tai, he escaped from Chang'an, accompanied by Hua Xin and six or seven others.
They set out from Wuguan and met a man walking alone on the way, who wanted to go with them, and several of them all took pity on him and wanted to agree to him.
Only Hua Xin said, "No." We are now in danger, with good and bad and suffering, and we should be as moral as one person. Accept a person without a reason, not understanding his morality. After accepting him, if you encounter difficulties, can you abandon him halfway? ”
Everyone couldn't bear to leave the man, and the man finally left with them.
On the way, the man fell into the well, and everyone wanted to ignore him, but Hua Xin said: "He is already with us, and it is immoral to abandon him." ”
So, Hua Xin led them back together and rescued the man, and later this person said goodbye to everyone and left, and everyone thought that Hua Xin was very moral.
Therefore, there is no harm if there is no comparison, with Guan Ning, Hua Xin is a background, but when he is with other people, Hua Xin is the protagonist.
Although Wu Fu's assassination of Dong Zhuo failed, it pointed out the direction for those who came after, and Wang Yun also realized that assassinating Dong Zhuo was the best choice.
Especially Wang Yun is in charge of Shangshutai with Situ, one of the three dukes, it can be said that as soon as Dong Zhuo dies, he will be in charge of the affairs of the imperial court.
In the third year of the first peace, in the spring of 192, because it lasted for more than 60 days of rain, Wang Yun and Shi Sun Rui and Yang Zan went to the altar together, begging for a sunny day.
Seeing that there was no one else on the left and right, Wang Yun once again invited the two to join forces to punish Dong, so the three of them decided to continue their previous plans again.
This time, Wang Yun's favorite assassin was Lu Bu.
It turned out that Lu Bu and Wang Yun were both from Bingzhou, and as township parties, they naturally had a little closeness.
And Wang Yun also did not look down on military generals like the Kwantung scholars, on the contrary, Wang Yun always said that he admired Lu Bu's bravery, and often invited Lu Bu to his mansion as a guest.
For Lu Bu, Wang Yunai is the first person in Bingzhou, and the Taiyuan Wang family is a wealthy family in the world, Lu Bu has an attitude of looking up at Wang Yun, and after a long time, the two naturally became friends.
Dong Zhuo trusted Lu Bu very much at the beginning and recognized him as his righteous son. Dong Zhuo also knew that he had too many enemies and was afraid of being plotted. Therefore, no matter where he goes, let Lu Bu be his entourage guard and personal guard. But Dong Zhuo has a rigid personality and a short temper. once pulled out a halberd and threw it at Lu Bu for a trivial matter that did not suit his heart, but fortunately, Lu Bu was agile and quickly dodged, and then apologized and apologized to Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo let him go. Since then, Lu Bu has secretly resented Dong Zhuo.
Later, Dong Zhuo asked Lu Bu to guard his inner bed, and Lu Bu took the opportunity to have an affair with one of Dong Zhuo's maids, for fear that Dong Zhuo would find out, and he couldn't feel at ease in his heart.
One day, Wang Yun invited Lu Bu to the banquet again, and with the strength of the wine, Lu Bu complained to Wang Yun, so Wang Yun took the opportunity to invite Lu Bu to assassinate Dong together.
At first, Lu Bu refused to agree, and said: "I have a father-son relationship with Dong Zhuo, so what can I do!" ”
Wang Yun persuaded Lu Budao: "Jun's surname is Lu, Dong Zhuo's surname is Dong, and he is not a close relative. Now that your relationship with him has deteriorated, and you have begun to endanger yourself, what are you talking about father-son love? Could it be that when Dong Zhuo threw the halberd at you, did he still have the relationship between father and son? ”
Lu Bu was finally persuaded by this sentence and decided to participate in the assassination of Dong.
In April, Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty fell ill and soon recovered. As a result, the Son of Heaven announced that he would convene his ministers to hold a celebration in the Weiyang Palace. Wang Yun and Shi Sun Rui secretly wrote an edict denouncing Dong Zhuo's crimes, asked Shi Sun Rui to secretly hand it over to Lu Bu, and then let Lu Bu and more than ten people from the same county disguise themselves as palace guards, and ambush Dong Zhuo in Beiye Gate to wait for Dong Zhuo to enter the palace.
The cavalry captain belongs to Jiuqing Guangluxun, who enters the palace room on weekdays and rides in the palm of the feather forest.
got the news that the Son of Heaven had recovered from his illness and invited hundreds of civil and military officials to congratulate him, Dong Zhuo did not doubt that he had him, and took a car to the palace, and Lu Bu accompanied the guards.
At that time, there were rumors: "Qianli grass, He Qingqing, ten days of Bu, still not born." "Qianlicao, Dong Ye, Shiri Bu, Zhuo Ye. The meaning of this nursery rhyme is that Dong Zhuo is going to die, and Dong Zhuo does not understand.
Another Taoist priest wrote the word "mouth" on a piece of cloth that was one zhang long. The word "Lu" was written on the cloth to show Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo did not know that it was Lu Buye.
Dong Zhuo joined the club, displayed his foot riding, and went to the palace by himself, and the court clothes guided him. His horse hesitated, Dong Zhuo felt strange in his heart, Lu Bu persuaded Dong Zhuo to move forward, and Dong Zhuo entered with his heart.
When Dong Zhuo's motorcade arrived outside the Beiye Gate, Li Su and others rushed out with a halberd and stabbed Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo wore armor in his court clothes, so he did not hurt the vital point, and Li Su stabbed Dong Zhuo in the arm and stabbed him out of the car, Dong Zhuo hurriedly beckoned Lu Bu to come to the rescue, he called: "Where is Lu Bu?!" ”
Lu Bu, who was on the side, took out the prepared edict, held it high, and shouted loudly: "There is an edict to beg the thief!" ”
Dong Zhuo was furious and scolded Lu Bu: "A mediocre dog dares to be so evil!" ”
Lu Bu led everyone forward and killed Dong Zhuo on the spot.
Bo Tianjing, the lord of the Taishi Mansion, and a man with a cangtou stepped forward to hug Dong Zhuo's body, and Lu Bu killed them again.
After Lu Bu killed three people in a row, the other people present did not dare to move.
Suddenly, there was a burst of cheers that shook the sky......
"The Dong thief is dead!"
