Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Proposal for Abolition

"How can this be reasonable, Hua Xiong dares to be rude to Cai Weng, and he is against him!" Listening to the narration of the Cai Mansion general, Dian Wei frowned, in the entire Luoyang City, who doesn't know that Cai Yong is Ye Zhao's mentor? This came to Duancai's Mansion for no reason, not only killed people, but also robbed Cai Yong's father and daughter, which is stirring up trouble.

Guan Hai looked at Ye Zhao, clasped his fists and saluted: "Please give the last general some soldiers and horses, and the last general will definitely snatch Cai Weng and Miss Zhaoji back safely." ”

"Dong Zhuo set up a banquet this time, and invited hundreds of officials in Luoyang, but he didn't recruit me." Ye Zhao groped his chin and said, "Now that I have taken my teacher away, I should talk to him well, Fang Yue, gather soldiers and horses, and enter the city." ”

No matter what Dong Zhuo's intentions were, but to make a move on Cai Yong, he was undoubtedly provoking Ye Zhao, although Ye Zhao had the heart to give in, but he would not admit it without a bottom line, and immediately stood up and said.

"Whoa!" Fang Yue saluted and ordered someone to blow the rallying call.

Cai Yong's matter came a little suddenly, before that, Ye Zhao didn't think that Dong Zhuo would come to provoke himself after he made such an obvious concession, which was somewhat tentative, but since he had already hit the bottom line, there was no room for turnaround, Ye Zhao reacted simply, and directly transferred all the people who stayed in Luoyang, I am afraid it also exceeded most people's expectations.

The garrison of the city gate has been taken away by Dong Zhuo, and now the captain of the city gate stationed at the west gate has been replaced by Dong Zhuo's henchmen, and when he saw the mighty soldiers and horses appear outside the city, he was obviously taken aback.

"Ye Hou stays!" The soldiers and horses in the West Garden came too suddenly, and it was too late to close the city gate, so the captain of the city gate could only step forward and bow to Ye Zhaoyi.

"I want to go into the city, there are some things to discuss with Dong Liangzhou, please let me go." Ye Zhao didn't have the slightest anger on his face, even with a little smile, and his tone was very gentle.

"Ye Hou forgive the sin, the duty of the last general, if Ye Hou wants to enter the city, please ...... the soldiers and horses" The captain of the city gate gave his hand again, but before he finished speaking, his eyebrows hurt, and a crossbow arrow pierced his head directly without warning, his body leaned back slightly, and his eyes suddenly opened.

"Ben Hou didn't mean to consult with you!" Ye Zhao took out a crossbow arrow from his waist and reloaded it without hurry.

Although this city gate captain is Dong Zhuo's henchman, the surrounding soldiers and horses are all Luoyang's former city gate defenders, so they naturally know Ye Zhao's name, and seeing Ye Zhao's sudden attack without warning, he directly killed the city gate captain, and he was at a loss for a while, not knowing whether to go or not.

However, in the next moment, there was no need for them to be entangled anymore, but seeing that Xu Rong quickly commanded the soldiers to rush forward and occupy the city gate, the weapons of the city gate defenders were also cut off.

Ye Zhao glanced at Xu Rong approvingly, nodded and said: "Before the official comes back, ensure that the West Gate is not lost, in addition, these city gate guards are yours, whether they can be incorporated depends on your ability." ”

"Don't worry, lord!" Xu Rong intervened: "The last general will live up to the trust!" ”

"Into town!"

With Ye Zhao's order, tens of thousands of troops began to enter the city, and such a large-scale mobilization naturally could not hide from Dong Zhuo's ears and eyes.

Soon, the men and horses of the various battalions that had been explained by Dong Zhuo and Li Ru in advance pulled out their camps one after another, and all of them converged towards the Xicheng side, preparing to cut off Ye Zhao's retreat.

Ye Zhao's army did not rush to the Dong Mansion after entering the city, Ye Zhao only took Dian Wei, He Man and five hundred guards straight to Dong Zhuo's mansion, Fang Yue, Guan Hai, Meng Hu and others began to quickly occupy important places in batches after entering the city, and put several nearby streets under martial law.

As soon as the people of Luoyang saw this formation, they were afraid that they would be affected again, so they fled one after another and rushed towards the other gates, seriously hindering the footsteps of the Xiliang army.

At the same time, Dong Zhuo's mansion was returned in the morning, but at this moment it has become overcrowded, the Manchu Dynasty and Luoyang celebrities have all been invited, looking up, they are all Masters, but if you are in it, you will find a death-like silence, a famous minister or Luoyang Masters has a gloomy face, every time a minister comes in, everyone's face will be ugly.

Dong Zhuo directly 'invited' them in a tough way this time, which made many people feel helpless and extremely angry at the same time.

can be invited, if you put it outside, which is not respected, wherever you go, it is a humble voice, even if it is the former son of heaven, you will not force them for no reason like this, you can call it sick if you are unhappy, in the past, he Jinquan was all over the world, and he did not dare to be so arrogant, but this time, Dong Zhuo did so, which made everyone feel quite unhappy At the same time, it also made many people really feel the importance of military power for the first time, There is no other way, there are already several hard bones who have been washed with Dong Zhuo's blood, this is not a joke, and not everyone can show the integrity in their bones in front of the butcher knife.

When it comes to the real contrast between life and dignity, life is often more important.

Although Ye Zhao Yongxing Workshop has produced some round tables where everyone can sit together, but in the mainstream, the main seat is still in accordance with the past habits, one person and one table, a total of forty-eight short tables are placed in the hall, which seems to be a little crowded, and plates of food are served like flowing water, and there are palace maids invited by Dong Zhuo from the palace to help serve the food, and now Dong Zhuo has taken charge of the north and south palaces, but because of the existence of Ye Zhao, Yuan Shao is also in charge of some military power, Dong Zhuo does not dare to be too presumptuous, and inviting palace maids is also through formal channels, I asked the Empress Dowager He.

Dong Zhuo left the hall after the hundred officials arrived one after another, and did not enter the hall with a sword until the hundred officials arrived.

"Today to be able to sit with the princes, Zhuo is very relieved, thinking back then, Zhuo entered this Luoyang City for the first time, don't say that with the princes, it is to visit the princes, it is also difficult, now I think about it, I am very emotional." Dong Zhuo raised the wine buds, made a toast to everyone, and said with a bold smile: "Please!" ”

The ministers were reluctant, but at this moment, the knife was on their necks, and if they didn't drink this toast, they were afraid that they would have to drink the punishment wine later.

Among the ministers, only Yuan Shao, Ding Yuan, and Cao Cao were silent, did not take this cup, and only returned the salute with silence.

Dong Zhuo saw that most of the ministers drank this glass, nodded with satisfaction, and glanced at Li Ru beside him, after three rounds of drinking, Dong Zhuo suddenly took off the saber at his waist and put it on the table.

Yuan Shao and Ding Yuan both frowned and looked at Dong Zhuo, and a famous man frowned and said, "What does Dong Gong mean by this?" ”

Dong Zhuo sat up straight and said sharply: "Zhuo has a word, please listen quietly!" ”

Looking at the silent ministers, Dong Zhuo said in a deep voice: "The Son of Heaven is the lord of all peoples, no prestige is not enough to deter the world, not enough to serve the temple and the community, however, today is cowardly, whether talent, prestige or intelligence, it is not as good as King Chen Liu, and the first emperor has also passed down the edict, set up King Chen Liuwang as the emperor, but by that He into the dictatorship, only caused the throne to fall, now Zhuo Feng edict into Beijing, want to serve the emperor's edict, abolish the emperor and set up another King Chen Liu, I don't know what your ministers want?" ”

After Dong Zhuo finished speaking, a pair of fine eyes looked at the ministers present like knives, the ministers were impressed by his prestige, and they didn't dare to fight with it, so they were silent, Cai Yong frowned and said: "Dong Liangzhou said that he came with an edict, can you show the edict of the emperor?" ”

"Cai Weng rest assured, if there is no edict from the first emperor, how dare Zhuo lead troops into Beijing without authorization?" Dong Zhuo smiled and nodded, took out an edict from his arms and handed it to Li Ru, signaling Li Ru to send it to Cai Yong and said with a smile: "Please circulate it!" ”

Cai Yong took the edict, he is the emperor's teacher, he is naturally familiar with Liu Hong's handwriting, take a closer look, and the jade seal of the country, it is indeed the edict of the first emperor, there is no doubt in his heart, but it is not good to directly refute that this is not the edict of the first emperor, this kind of ambiguous words, he can't say it, he can only hand the edict to Lu Zhi on the side.

After all, Lu Zhi has been in the officialdom for a long time, and after determining the authenticity of the edict, he did not speak, and now that it has come to this point, no matter whether the edict is true or not, with Dong Zhuo's current strength, he wants to do something to abolish the edict, and no one can really stop it, not to mention that this edict is still true, even if he wants to refute it, he should not refute it himself.

The ministers circulated the edict one by one, Dong Zhuo's eyes showed a smug look, as long as the ministers confirmed the truth of the edict, the matter of abolition could be decided.

"Originally, this ......" edict was passed to Ding Yuan, Ding Yuan didn't recognize Liu Hong's handwriting, he could only see that the jade seal was real, and turned his head to look at Yuan Shao beside him.

"It is indeed the handwriting of the first emperor." Yuan Shao sighed, he couldn't understand how this kind of edict could run into Dong Zhuo's hands, even if it was to be passed on, it should be passed on to Ye Zhao.

"If the princes are confirmed, I will wait for ......" Dong Zhuo saw that it had been passed for a long time, no one spoke, and he was about to ask someone to take back the edict, but he saw Ding Yuan suddenly stand up and kick the table in front of him out.

"Presumptuous!" Dong Zhuo couldn't help but be furious when he saw this, and pointed at Ding Yuan and shouted angrily.

"You are presumptuous!" In Dong Zhuo's angry gaze, Ding Yuan suddenly tore the edict to pieces, pointed at Dong Zhuo and said, "Who are you?" Dare to speak out and abolish it! The Son of Heaven is the son of the first emperor, since he succeeded to the throne, he has not made any mistakes, you are only a good son of a good family in six counties, and with an edict, you want to talk about the abolition of the establishment!? ”

"You're looking for death!" Dong Zhuo drew his sword, and two rows of armor soldiers rushed in outside the door, and they were about to cut Ding Yuan.

"Who dares to hurt my father-in-law!" Without waiting for Dong Zhuo to make a move, he heard a loud shout outside the door, and when he looked up, he saw a person, nearly a foot tall, a raw instrument Xuanang, holding a Fang Tian painting halberd, striding in, seeing the armor pounce on Ding Yuan, as soon as he grabbed it, a armor soldier was picked up by him like a chicken, and threw it casually, and the armor soldier flew out with his hands dancing, directly knocking over seven or eight armor soldiers.

"Who is this?!" Dong Zhuo was shocked when he saw this.

"Is my father-in-law okay?" Lu Bu strode behind Ding Yuan, his fierce gaze swept around, all the armor soldiers were afraid, and the scene was extremely solemn for a while.
