At noon, in the middle of the Wuwu, before the courtyard, Li Wei set up an altar, set up Dong Zhuo's spiritual seat, placed three animals below, sat on the side of four Taoist people and four witch blessings, he personally worshiped nine times in front of the altar: "Ming Gong, Dai is now worshiping Ming Gong's spirit in the sky, that Guo Yan and Fan Chou disobeyed the Ming Gong's former intentions, betrayed Liangzhou, and hoped that Ming Gong was in the spirit of the sky, and blessed the Ming Gong to win the battle."

On both sides, there are words in the mouths of the four Taoists, four and four witch wishes dance with their hands, sing and beat drums, worship and dance, there are two puppets on the altar, the names of Guo Yan and Fan Chou are written on them, and the witch wishes are pricked with needles from time to time, and they are picked with swords.

However, Li Dao and Niu Fu are the same, quite believing in the art of witch disgust, and often order witch Zhu to set up an altar to cast spells, cursing disgusted enemies, in order to win.

After Li Dao finished worshipping and cursing, he just got up, and suddenly a guard came to report: "General, the Son of Heaven asks for five buckets of rice and five cow bones." ”

Li Wei frowned and said: "I have breakfast and dinner every day, why do I ask for rice and bones?" ”

The guard said: "The Son of Heaven said that the courtiers are starving, and he wants to give them rice, grain, and cattle bones." ”

Li Wei snorted: "My sergeant has no grain and grass, so how can he come to sell grain and rice to his courtiers!" There is no grain and rice, go and get five pieces of stinky beef bones that have been eaten up with him! ”

After the guards left, Li Dao looked at his younger brother Li Ying on the side, and said: "Although this Yiwu is tall, it was previously broken by Huangfu Song, and the dock wall was quite damaged. ”

Li Ying hesitated: "I'm afraid that Guo Yan will intercept him on the way." ”

Li Dao immediately groaned again.

……

Behind the dock, Liu Xie, the son of heaven, was waiting for Li Wei's grain and rice with more than a dozen courtiers in the hall, and after a while, two guards came in from outside, threw a basket, and said, "Your Majesty, the beef bones are offered." ”

They left in a hurry, Liu Xie and the courtiers didn't go over to look, they smelled a rancid smell, filling the hall, Liu Ai went up to take a look, and said angrily: "It's a stinky beef bone, how can it be eaten?" ”

When Liu Xie heard this, he stepped forward to see that those bones were really smelly, and he couldn't help but be furious: "Li Dao deceived me too much, come here, summon him to come, I want to ask him face to face!" ”

"Your Majesty!" Yang Qi hurriedly stopped and said: "Li Dao is a contemptible person, accustomed to the wind, cruel and tyrannical, and now he knows that he has committed a crime of rebellion, and he often has a look of cowardice......

Liu Xie's face changed, he was silent for a long time, and sighed: "It is really a great shame for the country to fall to this point, what kind of face do I have under the Nine Springs to see the first emperor." Then he hid his face and wept bitterly

The left and right courtiers watched the young Son of Heaven being humiliated and wept, and thought of the fall of the imperial court to this point, all of them mourned and wept.

At this moment, the voice of the guard came from outside: "The Marquis of Chiyang begs to see Your Majesty." ”

The hall was quiet when it was quiet, everyone hurriedly wiped their tears, and saw Li Dao come in, with a knife hanging from his waist on the left and right, and a knife in his hand.

It was Li Wei's habit to carry three knives, and Liu Xie, the son of heaven, was quite calm and asked, "What happened to the Marquis of Chiyang?" ”

Li Wei said loudly: "Your Majesty Ming, the ministers are here to count Guo Yan's crimes, Guo Yan detained the ministers of the imperial court without authorization, and attacked Yiwu, almost injuring Your Majesty, this thief is unforgivable." ”

The left and right courtiers all sneered secretly, Guo Yan robbed the courtiers, but Ru Li Dao robbed the Son of Heaven, how can there be a good person.

Liu Xie followed Li Wei's words, with an angry look on his face: "The detention of important ministers by the Marquis of Meiyang is really a great rebellion, but the Marquis of Chiyang blames him and orders him to return to the minister." ”

In the next few words, Liu Xie followed Li Dao's meaning, Li Dao thought that the Son of Heaven was moved by him and agreed with his meaning, and couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Your Majesty Ming is also a true sage and holy master." ”

Out of the hall, Li Dao's face was a little happy, and he called Li Zhen in the waiter, and said in a deep voice: "The servants in front of the Son of Heaven are all hanging swords from their waists, and they want to be evil?" ”

Li Zhen is a fellow villager of Li Dao, and was sent by Li Dao to monitor the Son of Heaven, but at this time he was busy saying: "The person who holds the knife in the middle of the servant is the state system, and he has no other intentions." ”

Li Dao's expression eased slightly, and he didn't want the guards to send a letter at this time, Li Dao opened it and went to see Situ Zhao Wen, who was imprisoned by Li Dao, heard that he wanted to hijack Huangbai City, and wrote a letter to dissuade him: The public entrusted him to avenge Dong Gong, but he really slaughtered the royal city and killed the minister. Now in the gap between the strife, with thousands of enemies, the people are in misery, each has a hard time, and has not changed its life, and it has become a disaster. The imperial court still issued a clear edict, wanting to reconcile, but the edict did not work, the favor was losing day by day, and the revenge wanted to take advantage of the public opinion in Huangbaicheng, and this honest old man was puzzled. Yu Yi, one is too much, and then it is involved, and the three are changed, and the top is destroyed, and it is fierce. It is better to reconcile with the Republic as soon as possible, lead the troops back to the tun, go up to the peace and ten thousand times, and go down to the whole people, how unfortunate is it! ”

Li Wei was furious: "Come on, arrest Zhao Wen, I want to kill him with my own hands!" ”

Li Wei's younger brother Li Ying was once Zhao Wen's former official, and when he saw that his brother had murderous intent, he hurriedly said: "Brother can't, Zhao Situ is a famous man in Guanzhong, known as prestige, if it is harmed, it will be unpopular again, how to govern the court?" ”

Li Dao said angrily: "If he doesn't have one heart with me, how can he not be killed." ”

"Brother......" Li Ying was about to persuade again, but suddenly another soldier hurriedly came to report: "General Yu, General Yang Ding of Anxi rebelled, joined forces with Guo Yan, and wanted to attack Huangbaicheng in Chiyang." ”

Li Wei's complexion changed greatly, he had previously united with Guo Yan to control Yixian, Meiyang, and Chiyang, and his forces were connected, from Zuo Fengyi in the east to Liangzhou in the west, which can be described as strong, and Fan Chou is not afraid at all.

Previously, Guo Yan broke with him first, because Meiyang was located between Yixian and Chiyang, Li Wei and Yang Ding united, and transferred troops from Chiyang in the east, and attacked back and forth, driving Guo Yan out of Meiyang, but now Yang Ding has taken refuge in Guo Yan, his power has weakened a lot at once, on the contrary, Guo Yan has become a lot stronger, once they take Meiyang again, their own forces will be cut in two.

As soon as he thought of this, Li Dao said angrily: "Quickly send troops to attack Guo Duo and Yang Ding, I want to kill Yang Ding, a repeated villain!" ”

……

In the south of Qishan, Fan Chou, Guo Yan and Yang Ding are all stationed here, with more than 30,000 soldiers and horses. ”

Guo Yan was also quite satisfied with Li Ru's design to win over Yang Ding, and nodded again and again.

Li Ru stroked his beard and smiled, but Yang Ding said: "You can't be careless, Li Dao still has 70,000 soldiers and horses, which is still stronger than us, not to mention that if the son is still in the hands of Li Dao today, it is not good for us." ”

Li Ru glanced at Yang Ding and said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this, Li Dao is capricious, not as brave as General Youyou and Meiyang Hou, not as wise as General Anxi, meritorious and unpopular, I have a plan, but people can persuade Dong Cheng to surrender, Dong Cheng is Niu Zhonglang's old department, and now he is with Li Dao, but his daughter is a noble person of the Son of Heaven, and his heart must be to the Son of Heaven. ”

When Guo Yan, Fan Chou and Yang Ding heard this, they were all excited: "According to Mr. Wang's words, I will send someone to persuade Dong Cheng and Yang Feng to surrender." ”

Li Ru smiled, his purpose was to transfer Liu Xie, the Son of Heaven, from Hewu, now Li Dao monopolizes the Son of Heaven and has a strong power, and he must level the power of Guo Yan, Fan Chou and others before he has a chance.
