Chapter 91: The Secret of Undefeated
"I'm tired, if you don't have anything else important, let's disperse first." On the Jiade Palace, Liu Bianqiang accepted the greetings from the ministers, and after explaining to appease the soldiers and civilians of Luoyang, he ordered the dispersal of the dynasty with some tiredness.
It's not difficult to understand when you think about it, although you are the son of heaven, but in fact you are only a thirteen-year-old child, last night was first kidnapped out of the palace, frightened along the way, and ran all night, both mentally and physically, have long been tired, and now it has been held out for so long, it is rare, and at this moment the court meeting was hastily ended, in the eyes of the ministers, it is not a big deal.
But this point, in Dong Zhuo's view, is the problem.
What he did was preconceived, Dong Zhuo got Liu Hong's edict from Liu Xie, and this time he entered Beijing with a purpose, and he naturally had problems everywhere, but at the moment his position in Luoyang was unstable, and it was not good to attack immediately.
"Ye Hou stays!" The ministers left the Jiade Hall and left the palace in twos and threes, and Ye Zhao was about to leave after saying goodbye to Lu Zhi, but saw Dong Zhuo suddenly arrive from behind.
"What's the matter with Dong Liangzhou?" Ye Zhao looked at Dong Zhuo with a smile.
"This is not the place to speak, can Ye Hou move?" Dong Zhuo looked around cautiously and said with some unease.
Ye Zhao saw his expression and knew his intentions, which was nothing more than to form an alliance with himself in the name of the edict, and at the same time, it was also to drag himself down, so that his troops could gather more Luoyang soldiers and horses.
Nodding, he didn't break it, anyway, his main purpose was to recruit in Xiyuan, with his reputation and official title in Luoyang, and Ji Ling and Meng Hu, two thieves who were familiar with Luoyang's military affairs, it should not be a problem, as for the rest, Ye Zhao didn't want to move, once he moved, his plan would be reversed, and Luoyang had become a place of contention with this palace change.
What is a place of contention?
There is imperial power here, but the imperial power has gone through the Yellow Turban and the struggle over the years, and then after Liu Wei succeeded to the throne, He Jin's dictatorship and this time the Son of Heaven was abducted, weakened again and again, and the state pastors and Taishou have gradually had a tendency to divide the territory, and the scholars and warlords have now focused their eyes here.
All want to grasp the imperial power, and then control the world, this struggle comes and goes, the final result, according to history, is a lose-lose situation, according to the current situation, once Dong Zhuo does the abolition of the establishment, no matter who finally controls the Son of Heaven, even if it is the Yuan family, I am afraid it will be difficult to control the opportunity of the court through the Son of Heaven again.
What Ye Zhao wanted was to take away some of the Luoyang soldiers and horses, and it was impossible to take them away now, but in the future, he wanted the winner to beg him to go.
Dong Zhuo actually has private property in Luoyang, which is similar to the Ye Mansion where Ye Zhao lived in the past.
"In the past, Zhuo also lived in Luoyang for a period of time, when the general was also the first to arrive in Luoyang, quite depressed, at that time the two of us talked very happily, and even once as a confidant, I don't want to say goodbye to the year, and there is no day to see each other again, now I want to come, I am still embarrassed." Dong Zhuo smiled as he introduced Ye Zhao into the mansion.
"The things of life are really unpredictable, the turbid world is turbid, tomorrow's things, how can they be as human expected?" Ye Zhao replied casually with a smile.
"But things in this world always have to be fought for, and it is not in vain in this life, I don't know what Ye Hou thinks?" Li Ru greeted him from the mansion with a smile, looked at Ye Zhao with a smile and said: "Although Ye Hou's words are good, they are quite a bit born, Ye Hou is young, such remarks should not come out of Ye Hou's mouth." ”
"Oh?" Ye Zhao smiled: "Then I don't know what Wen You thinks, what should I say?" ”
"It is said that Ye Hou is both civil and military, and at a young age, he has been ranked as a township marquis, since the founding of the Han Dynasty, there are not many people who have been named a township marquis at such a young age as Ye Hou." Li Ru smiled and said: "I thought that Ye Hou should be sharp, young and old, not a hero like Ye Hou." ”
"Heroes?" Ye Zhao shook his head when he heard this: "Zhao doesn't dare to pretend to be a hero, Brother Zhong Ying, this has already arrived in your mansion, what is the matter, you might as well say it directly." ”
"Please speak in Ye Hou's house." Dong Zhuo smiled and welcomed Ye Zhao into the study, and Li Ru also followed with a smile.
"I heard that Ye Hou was the favored minister of the first emperor, I don't know if Ye Hou knew that the first emperor was alive, but he had ever said who he was going to make the emperor?" Dong Zhuo sat down and got straight to the point.
"Father-in-law......" Li Ru was startled, and hurriedly looked at Dong Zhuo, shouldn't this kind of thing be tested by each other first, and then gradually drag things out?
Dong Zhuo looked at Ye Zhao and waved his hand slightly, signaling Li Ru not to speak.
"What does Brother Zhong Ying mean by this?" Ye Zhao took the tea bowl handed by Li Ru, sniffed the aroma of the tea soup, did not answer, but looked at Dong Zhuo and said: "No matter what the emperor meant, but when the son has been established today, and during His Majesty's reign, there is no fault, Brother Zhong Ying's words are not what a minister should say, right?" ”
"In this way, Ye Hou also knows that the person chosen by the emperor in his heart is not today!" Dong Zhuo looked at Ye Zhao with a somewhat aggressive gaze.
"Yes or no, what's the point of talking about it now?" Ye Zhao looked at Dong Zhuo with a smile and said, "The position of the Son of Heaven has been decided, could it be that Brother Zhongying wants to emulate that Huo Guangyi Yin's actions?" ”
"So what? Isn't it? Dong Zhuo looked at Ye Zhao and put the teacup in his hand on the table.
"Bang la la~" Outside the door, there was a sudden sound of armor colliding, mixed with dense footsteps.
Ye Zhaoweiwei narrowed his eyes, and suddenly smiled: "Brother Dong, have you ever thought about who Huo Guangyi Yin is, and how does Brother Dong's reputation and virtue compare to the two of them?" Even if Ye responds to you against his will, how sure is this matter? ”
"What's the difference?" Dong Zhuo asked himself if he had the chance to win, smiled and shook his head: "Ye Hou made the same mistake as Sui Gao, he was too confident, he thought this was Luoyang, Dong didn't dare to do anything to you?" ”
"Of course there is a difference." Ye Zhao said with a smile: "Ordinary people say that I am a winning general, but Brother Dong knows that there is a trick to this because of the fact that I can always win." ”
"Oh?" Dong Zhuo was surprised when he heard this: "Ye Hou is willing to tell me?" ”
"It's not that hard." Ye Zhao said with a smile: "There are three tricks, this is the first, you need to have enough ability." ”
Dong Zhuo smiled, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea soup and said: "Ye Hou's means are enough, Ye Hou's meritorious deeds over the years, the world's military generals all admire Ye Hou, these words are suspected of boasting." ”
"No matter how strong a general is, there will be a day when he misses, but I won't, and the reason is this second trick." Ye Zhao said with a smile.
"Oh?"
"I never bet." Ye Zhao said with a smile.
"I want to hear about it." Dong Zhuo and Li Ru were aroused by their curiosity and couldn't help but be attracted to Ye Zhao.
"Looking at the famous generals of ancient times, there are many late festivals that are not guaranteed, for different reasons, but after all, they can't escape a gambling word, betting that the enemy can't see through their own schemes, betting on the enemy's weakness, gambling on luck, but I will never bet." Ye Zhao looked at Dong Zhuodao.
Li Ru looked at Ye Zhao and sighed slightly: "What Ye Hou said, it's not bad, it's just that this person is alive, and many times, it is inevitable to gamble, and further, it is glory and wealth, and the power is overwhelming, at least half of the chance, but if you don't gamble, you won't even have this half of the chance." ”
"The opportunity to gamble seems to be good luck, but in fact it hides a disaster, Wen You is also a well-read person, this blessing and misfortune depend on each other, and it should not be unclear." Ye Zhao looked at Li Rudao.
"In this way, Ye Hou is unwilling to listen to Dong's good words today?" Dong Zhuo looked at Ye Zhao, and at that moment, like a lion about to attack, the tea bowl in his hand was slowly raised.
"There are three tricks to this undefeated, and Brother Dong doesn't want to hear this third?" Ye Zhao looked at Dong Zhuo and said with a smile.
Dong Zhuo's expression stiffened, and Li Ru suddenly got up.
A small crossbow, I don't know when it appeared in Ye Zhao's hand, was lifted by Ye Zhao, and put it on Dong Zhuo's forehead, this action Ye Zhao has specially practiced, extremely skilled, if Huangfu Song is here, he will definitely find that Ye Zhao's set of movements is many times smoother than when he was in Changshe.
"Sit!" Ye Zhao turned his head, glanced at Li Ru with a smile and said: "Don't be nervous, my crossbow doesn't seem to have much power, in fact, it doesn't have much power, in order to be easy to carry, but also easy to hide, specially asked craftsmen to design, in order to solve the drawbacks of the crossbow body is too small and the power is insufficient, especially ask the master craftsman to read the pre-Qin information, with bronze as the crossbow body, iron wire as the string, within twenty steps, you can pierce through the leaf armor, but when you get to twenty steps away, the power is gone, as a sign of respect, I can allow Brother Dong to run nineteen steps first, to see how Ye's archery skills are?" ”
The smile on Ye Zhao's face was very sunny: "Brother Dong can gamble, if I shoot Brother Dong, the armor outside will rush in and break my body into thousands of pieces, if I don't shoot, Brother Dong can collect all the troops in Luoyang!" ”
Dong Zhuo's cheeks twitched twice, this bet is his life!
Ye Zhao smiled and said: "I suggest Brother Dong take a gamble, I am the general of the Imperial Guard, the Marquis of Ningxiang, although Brother Dong holds Xiliang, but he is not the state pastor, on the official lord, I am above you, this bet, no matter whether you win or lose, you will make a profit!" ”
Dong Zhuo scolded in his heart, at this moment, he was in control, how could he be willing to gamble with Ye Zhao.
Li Ru on the side looked at the smile on Ye Zhao's face, his heart beat wildly, he tried to calm down, sat down again, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Ye Hou hasn't said yet, what is the last one of the secrets of this undefeated?" ”
"It's simpler." Ye Zhao smiled: "If I say it, the two of you will definitely approve it." ”
"Then Ye Hou might as well try to say it." Li Ru stared at Ye Zhao's hand holding the crossbow, and had the heart to pounce on it, but he was afraid that Ye Zhao's fish would die, he hadn't figured out Ye Zhao's character yet, but he had also heard of Ye Zhao's glorious deeds of forcing Huangfu Song to ask for military power with a crossbow in the Changshe Society, this kind of person, he was really not sure if Ye Zhao would really start directly.
"I fight wars and I'm always on the side of the winners." Ye Zhao said with a smile.
When Dong Zhuo and Li Ru heard this, they were speechless, which made a lot of sense, but it was nonsense.
Dong Zhuo said stiffly: "In this way, Ye Hou thinks that he will lose in the next place!?" ”
Although the score is low, Dong Zhuo has also heard Ye Zhao scheming, and he is still very concerned about Ye Zhao's opinion on this matter.
