Ye Zhao and Dong Zhuo's two armies were combined into one, but they clearly escorted Liu Wei and Liu Xie all the way to Luoyang, the soldiers on both sides were on guard against each other, but Ye Zhao and Dong Zhuo, as the main generals, talked happily all the way as if they were not affected.

On the way, he met Lu Zhi and Min Gong, who came to the rescue.

After Hua Xiong asked the whereabouts of the Son of Heaven before, he casually left Min Gong, Min Gong knew that if the Son of Heaven was hijacked by Dong Zhuo and these warlords, it might not be a good thing, so he immediately turned around and went to Luoyang to move rescuers to escort him, and met Lu Zhi who came out to find the Son of Heaven on the way.

At this moment, Luoyang is already in a mess, even if you go back, you won't be able to move the rescuers for a while, after Lu Zhi explained the reason, the two of them combined, first come over to stabilize Dong Zhuo, as for the rest, after returning to Luoyang, it is naturally easy to say.

I didn't expect to meet Ye Zhao, Lu Zhi and Min Gong were overjoyed, so they naturally joined Ye Zhao's side, with Ye Zhao's soldiers and horses on the side, Dong Zhuo also settled down a lot, and returned to Luoyang all the way, but at this moment, Luoyang City, after a night of chaos, has become a lot dilapidated.

Last night, the rebels gradually dispersed from the palace, and the chaos of the palace spread to the entire city.

When Ye Zhao and the others arrived in Luoyang, although the hustle and bustle in the city had temporarily returned to calm, as far as the eye could see, it was a mess, with corpses everywhere on the ground, scattered belongings all over the ground, and even the battlefield left by Luoyang's soldiers and horses fighting each other.

Although he had learned from Lu Zhi that the situation in Luoyang was not good, the scene in front of him still made everyone depressed.

"Command the soldiers to block the city gates, send people to inspect the city, and restrain the armies, but those who take the opportunity to make trouble again will be killed!" Ye Zhao's face turned cold, and he turned his head to Fang Yue and said.

"Whoa!" Fang Yue bowed his hand and began to arrange for soldiers and horses to close the city gate and inspect the city.

Beside Dong Zhuo, a scribe leaned into Dong Zhuo's ear and whispered: "Lord, now that the three armies of Luoyang City have no owner, it is the time when the lord takes the opportunity to collect military power, and when Ye Zhao restores order, he can take advantage of the time when Ye Zhao restores order to collect Luoyang soldiers and horses first and seize the opportunity." ”

Dong Zhuo hesitated: "But the Son of Heaven ......"

"Don't worry, my lord, as long as we hold on to the military power, the Son of Heaven is still in our pocket!" The scribe chuckled.

"Good, you can order Wen Kai (Huaxiong), Hu Zhen, Fan Chou, and Zhang Ji to lead people to collect the military power in the city." Dong Zhuo whispered quietly.

"Whoa!" The scribe agreed and was about to leave, but saw Ye Zhao, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at himself, and the gaze that seemed to be smiling made the scribe's heart skip a beat.

"Brother Zhongying, this gentleman is ......" Ye Zhao looked at the scribe and said to Li Ru with a smile.

"This is my son-in-law, I was in a hurry before, and I forgot to introduce Ye Hou, Wen You, meet Ye Hou quickly." Dong Zhuo said with a smile.

"Xiaguan Li Ru, I've seen Ye Hou." The scribe bowed to Ye Zhao in a proper manner and smiled.

"It turned out to be a scholar first, disrespectful, and Brother Zhong Ying was really full of talents." Ye Zhao said with a smile.

Dong Zhuo was a little inexplicable, but he also said modestly: "Ye Hou is serious, they are all family members who have not achieved talents, and they are not as talented as Ye Hou's disciples. ”

After speaking, Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru again and said, "Hurry up and order someone to recruit the soldiers and horses stationed in Gucheng to help stabilize the law and order in Luoyang." ”

"Whoa!" Li Ru bowed and hurriedly left.

"Xiuming, what's wrong?" Lu Zhi saw Ye Zhao step forward and asked in a low voice.

"It's okay, I just feel that Dong Zhuo's deeds are a little ...... Suspicious. Ye Zhao shook his head, that Li Ru thought that he could avoid others, but he didn't know that within a radius of ten zhang, it was all under his control, but these things, he couldn't say it.

"Dong Zhuo has the heart of a tiger and a wolf, this time he didn't get an edict, he led the army to Luoyang without authorization, and the timing is so coincidental, his heart is not small, Xiuming should be cautious!" Lu Zhi said solemnly.

"Master Lu rest assured." Ye Zhao said with a smile.

After thinking about it, Ye Zhao said goodbye to Lu Zhi, and then found Ji Ling and Meng Hu: "You two quickly go and hold my talisman, collect the soldiers and horses in the West Garden, and collect as much as you can." ”

Compared with He Jin's Yulin Army and the soldiers and horses of the five schools of the Northern Army, although the Xiyuan New Army was still short in the day of formation and the combat effectiveness was not formed for a long time, its plasticity was higher than that of other armies, and the imprint on its body was relatively weak, so it was easier to subdue, although Ye Zhao had already made up his mind to let Dong Zhuo walk in front of the stage and follow the soldiers, but he stayed in Luoyang for so long, he couldn't go back empty-handed, and during the time he stayed in Luoyang, he also needed some enough strength to be despised enough, so as not to become cannon fodder.

"Whoa!" Ji Ling and Meng Hu took Ye Zhao's talisman, bowed, and then retreated, the two followed Ye Zhao in Luoyang for a long time, and at this moment, with Ye Zhao's instructions, it was much easier to find a way than Dong Zhuo.

Most of Dong Zhuo and Ye Zhao's men and horses dispersed in an instant, and when the group came to Nangong, there were less than 1,000 troops guarding Liu Wei's side, and the rest were all secretly sent by Ye Zhao and Dong Zhuo.

As soon as he arrived at Nangong, he saw Yuan Shao, who had already received the news, with a cadre of civil and military generals, and when he saw Ye Zhao and Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao's face couldn't help but change.

Wang Yun thought in his heart, stepped forward with a smile and said, "I wonder how Ye Hou and Dong Liangzhou are here?" ”

"I received an urgent report last night that there were thieves disturbing Luoyang, and I specially led the army to escort it." Ye Zhao smiled and said, "Fortunately, it was in time, otherwise Your Majesty would be in danger." ”

"I came here under the secret edict of the first emperor." Dong Zhuo smiled and nodded.

The Emperor's Secret Edict?

When Yuan Shao and Wang Yun heard this, their hearts jumped, and Yuan Shao stepped forward and said, "Where is the secret edict?" ”

"The stakes are high, and I didn't take them with me." Dong Zhuo said with a smile: "When my follow-up soldiers and horses arrive, I will present the secret edict!" Consult with the princes. ”

"Right now, let's go to the court first, this official is also very curious, why did Luoyang City fall here?" Ye Zhao looked at everyone and said indifferently.

After speaking, he ignored everyone, and went straight with Lu Zhi to escort Liu Wei to the Jiade Palace.

"When will Ding Jianyang's men arrive?" Looking at the back of Ye Zhao and the others leaving, Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, "If it goes on like this, what will I wait to fight with Ye Zhao and Dong Zhuo?" ”

"Don't worry, the people of Bingzhou have already passed the revolving gate, and they can arrive in a couple of days." Wang Yun nodded solemnly, the matter had just reached the most critical time, but they didn't expect that before they could rein in the Luoyang soldiers and horses, Ye Zhao and Dong Zhuo would arrive at the same time, which caught them off guard.

"Send someone to step up the drying." Yuan Shao said in a deep voice: "If we continue like this, we will have no place in Luoyang." ”

"Hmm." Wang Yun nodded and said, "The original Xiyuan New Army also needs to be gathered as soon as possible, so Ye Zhao probably won't let go of this opportunity to restrain the military power." ”

Hearing this, Yuan Shao nodded heavily, if Ye Zhao was allowed to gain military power, then there would be nothing for them in Luoyang, and he finally killed He Jin with the help of the Ten Standing Servants, and as a result, he was busy making wedding dresses for others, this kind of thing, Yuan Shao naturally did not want to.

"You say, will this secret edict that Dong Zhuo said be ......" Yuan Shao looked around and whispered to Wang Yun.

"Probably not!" After thinking for a moment, Wang Yun shook his head and said: "The first emperor has no reason to give the edict to Dong Zhuo, not to mention that Dong Zhuo has committed the taboo of the first emperor by leading the Liangzhou pastoral, even if the first emperor has this intention, although Dong Zhuo has military power, but he is far away in Xiliang, how can the first emperor let him assist...... Not right......"

"What's wrong?" Seeing that Wang Yun was halfway through speaking, his complexion suddenly changed, and Yuan Shao frowned.

"The first emperor will not hand over the edict to Dong Zhuo, but what if someone wants to hand over this edict to Dong Zhuo?" Wang Yun looked at the backs of Ye Zhao and Dong Zhuo, and a chill flashed in his eyes.

"The two have joined forces?" Yuan Shao's heart sank, this is not good news.

"Probably so." Wang Yun nodded and said, "Try to separate the relationship between the two!" ”

"What is the master's plan?" Yuan Shao hurriedly asked.

"Let me think twice......" Wang Yun shook his head, things happened too suddenly, where did he come up with a clever plan?
