Chapter 113: Cooperation
The scorching sun was in the sky, the time was unconscious, it was already past noon, and the battle outside the North Palace, with the arrival of Dong Zhuo, gradually stopped, and the soldiers on both sides returned to their own formations, facing each other at a distance of more than a dozen steps.
Since Ye Zhao learned that someone had murdered King Hongnong, the forbidden land of the North Palace once again became a place of competition.
Ye Zhao overwhelmed the Yulin Army, and then the Yulin Army looked for Beigong Wei's bad luck but was beaten by the girls of Beigong Wei, and then to Lu Bu's arrival, Beigong Wei declined, and finally Ye Zhao appeared to beat Lu Bu, if you look at it as a bystander, it is undoubtedly wonderful, but if you are in the game, it is not so beautiful.
Lu Bu said that although Ye Zhao was uncharacteristically hard with him today, the result was not as devastating as Lu Bu imagined, and even fell into a bitter battle for a while, as for the previous victory over the three generals of Beigong Wei, whether it was for Lu Bu or for others, it was not a glorious thing to win against three women.
In short, although he got his wish to fight with Ye Zhao today, not only did it not make him feel comfortable, but his depression became heavier.
As for Ye Zhao, from the perspective of a bystander, no matter how exciting, he personally played against Lu Bu and lowered his value, many people couldn't figure out why Ye Zhao's shrewdness and calmness would do such an irrational thing?
The reason, I'm afraid, only Ye Zhao knows.
Dong Zhuo arrived with the people, frowned and looked at Ye Zhao and said, "Ye Hou, why is this?" The kidnapping of King Hongnong is a serious crime. ”
"Then do you know that if Ye hadn't arrived in time, King Hongnong and the Queen Mother might have been two corpses at this moment." Ye Zhao looked at Dong Zhuo, his emotions were vented on Lu Bu before, and he was already much calmer at the moment, looking at Dong Zhuo and said in a deep voice.
"Ye Hou's words are a bit alarmist!" Dong Zhuo frowned.
"Father-in-law......" Li Ru whispered a few words in Dong Zhuo's ear, and the news had already been sent from the secret room where he was lying in the palace before, and the beginning and end of the matter in the palace were also clear.
"Is there such a thing!? Who is so bold? Dong Zhuo couldn't help but exclaim when he heard this.
"It seems that Dong Xiang already knows what happened." Ye Zhao glanced at Li Ru and said with a smile: "As for who has the guts, I don't think it's difficult to check, but Dong Xiang is afraid that he won't be able to handle this person." ”
When Dong Zhuo heard this, he couldn't help but fall into silence, as soon as Li Ru said, he could probably guess who it was, but as Ye Zhao said, even if he knew, he couldn't do it, otherwise the world would be in chaos, and this result was that he Dong Zhuo couldn't bear it.
"King Hongnong can't continue to stay in Luoyang, otherwise he will be harmed sooner or later." Ye Zhao looked at Dong Zhuo and said in a deep voice: "If there is nothing important, please ask Dong Xiang to get out of the way, and Benhou will escort King Hongnong out of the city." ”
When Dong Zhuo heard this, he frowned and looked at Ye Zhao, and after a while, he nodded slowly: "I won't give away the photo." ”
"Father-in-law, you can't let him go, if Ye Zhao doesn't get rid of him, there will be trouble!" Lu Bu couldn't help frowning when he heard this.
In the past, he felt that Ye Zhao would only play some clever tricks, and if he talked about commanding troops to fight, he would definitely not be his opponent.
But in today's battle, whether it was the courage of the women of Beigong Wei or Ye Zhao's own strength, Lu Bu was extremely jealous.
What's more, Ye Zhao is not alone, and there are fierce generals accompanying him, which is even more difficult to deal with.
Dong Zhuo and the others glanced at Lu Bu speechlessly, Ye Zhao is not easy to deal with, and he didn't know it today, so he needs you to remind him? But if you want to keep Ye Zhao today, it will be a big battle that will affect the entire Luoyang, whether Ye Zhao can kill or not is two words, but after this battle, this Luoyang City may have to be completely abolished.
"Don't be reckless." Dong Zhuo was in a bad mood, waved his hand and said, "Stand down!" ”
"Whoa!" Lu Bu glared at Ye Zhao and retreated behind Dong Zhuo unwillingly.
"I hope Ye Hou can keep his promise!" Dong Zhuo looked at Ye Zhao and said in a deep voice.
What he said was naturally what Ye Zhao said before, he handed over King Hongnong to Ye Zhao, and Ye Zhao withdrew from the Tiger Prison.
Originally, Dong Zhuo didn't want to let King Hongnong leave so easily, but now it seems that, as Li Ru said, it will do more harm than good to continue to keep King Hongnong here, and now that King Hongnong has fallen into the hands of Ye Zhao, it is better to be a favor and drive Ye Zhao out of Luoyang by the way.
"Don't worry, Ye Mou speaks, and he says a word!" Ye Zhao said indifferently.
"Order Huaxiong to retreat." Dong Zhuo glanced at Ye Zhao deeply and waved his hand.
"Take away the bodies of the dead girls together, Zhao can't protect them in front of them, but he can't let them riot in the wilderness after death!" Ye Zhao turned his head, glanced at Beigong Wei, and said to Guan Hai beside him.
"Whoa!" Guan Hai saluted solemnly, and took his personal guards to load the body of the dead Beigong Wei into a car and transport it outside the city.
Ye Zhao hugged his fists at Dong Zhuo and said, "I'm tired of Dong Xiang's resignation to Your Majesty on behalf of Benhou!" ”
At this time, Ye Zhao naturally couldn't enter the palace alone and give Dong Zhuo a chance to clean himself up, but in this etiquette, a general like him left the court, and he still had to report to Liu Xie.
"Don't worry, I'll talk to Your Majesty." Dong Zhuo nodded, he thought that a little emperor was easy to control, but now it seems that although this little guy is young, he has a lot of careful thoughts and skills, and he should let him sober up.
"Farewell!" Ye Zhao saw that Guan Hai had finished cleaning up, so he immediately said goodbye to Dong Zhuo and led the men and horses out of the city.
"Father-in-law, I'll send Ye Hou, maybe we have a chance to form an alliance." Li Ru's heart moved, bowed to Dong Zhuo, took a few guards, and rushed in the direction Ye Zhao left.
"Enter the palace!" Looking at the direction Ye Zhao left, Dong Zhuo took a deep breath, a hideous murderous intent flashed on his face full of meat, and he walked towards the palace with Lu Bujing.
In the Changle Palace, Liu Xie looked at the outside of the palace with some apprehension, he didn't know if his plan would succeed, but there should be no problem, but after all, even if this matter is done, it is not good for his reputation, if it succeeds, he should try to push this matter on Dong Zhuo.
Having been exposed to it since childhood, Liu Xie still attaches great importance to his reputation.
"Your Majesty, go!" Just as Liu Xie was suffering from gains and losses, thinking about how to go next, he saw Shi Ruisun stumbling in, and said with a panicked face.
"What the hell, can King Hongnong ......" Liu Xie grabbed Shi Ruisun and asked urgently.
Shi Ruisun didn't know how to answer for a while, and when did he say in his heart, and he still wanted to harm his brother?
"King Hongnong has been rescued by Ye Zhao, Zhou Yu was killed by that Ye Zhao, and now Dong Zhuo is leading people to come, Your Majesty should go and avoid it!" Shi Ruisun said in a deep voice.
"It's him again!" When Liu Xie heard this, he couldn't help but be furious, and was about to say something, but saw a large number of armor soldiers appear outside the palace gate, and Dong Zhuo's fat body strode into the main hall.
"Your Majesty, I heard that there are young people who bewitch Your Majesty and make Your Majesty kill each other, and the ministers have come to clean up the small people for Your Majesty!" Dong Zhuo came to His Royal Highness and bowed his hand to Liu Xieyi.
Liu Xie's immature little face twitched a few times, and said with a dry smile: "What does Dong Xiang mean by this?" When did I kill my brother and sister? Besides, I am surrounded by wise men, why do I have a small night? ”
"It seems that ......" Dong Zhuo looked at Shi Ruisun, whose face had become pale, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has been deceived by someone, and today someone privately passed on His Majesty's edict and wanted to poison and kill King Hongnong in the palace, so it seems that the edict must be an edict!" ”
"It must be so!" Liu Xie nodded busily.
"In this way, the minister can rest assured!" Dong Zhuo looked at Shi Ruisun coldly, his face turned grim, and he said: "Come on, let me take down this rebellious minister and thief who deceived the upper and lower levels and the cholera palace!" ”
"Whoa!" When Lu Bu heard this, he directly led people forward and kicked Shiruisun to the ground.
"Your Majesty, save me!" Shi Ruisun's face changed greatly, and he said to Liu Xie in a mournful voice.
"Why is Dong Xiang like this, this is ...... Is there some misunderstanding? Liu Xie looked at Dong Zhuodao with some trembling.
"Your Majesty, it was this minister who had previously conspired with Zhou Yu in the name of His Majesty, and entered the palace to murder King Hongnong, but fortunately, Ye Zhao, Marquis of Ningxiang, arrived in time to save King Hongnong, so that this traitor's trick failed to succeed." Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Xie and said with a smile: "Your Majesty said, should such traitors be killed?" ”
"What happened!!" When Liu Xie heard this, he looked surprised, and then looked at Shi Ruisun and said, "Is there such a thing?" ”
"Your Majesty!" Dong Zhuo stepped on Shi Ruisun and said: "This matter is seen by the minister with his own eyes, the evidence is conclusive, why is Your Majesty biased towards him?" Could it be that Your Majesty thinks that what the minister said is false? Or was this matter simply instructed by His Majesty? ”
"No...... Dong Xiang misunderstood, I ......" Liu Xie looked at Dong Zhuo's fierce gaze, and was timid in his heart, and said glutinously: "I just ...... I just don't want to kill the loyal minister by mistake. ”
"Then Your Majesty is saying that the minister is a traitor!?" Dong Zhuo's eyes narrowed, only a gap remained, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes to look at Liu Xie.
"No, I don't mean that!" Liu Xie hurriedly shook his head: "Just according to Dong Xiang's words, kill ...... Kill him. ”
In the end, Liu Xie didn't dare to look at Shi Ruisun's gaze.
Shi Ruisun was slightly stunned, looked at Liu Xie in disbelief, suddenly laughed miserably, and looked up to the sky and sighed: "It's true that God is killing my big man!" Don't touch me! ”
Shaking off the armor soldier who came up, Shi Ruisun sighed: "I'll come by myself!" ”
After speaking, he drew his sword and swung it to kill himself.
"If Dong Xiang has nothing else to do, please ask Dong Xiang to step down, I'm tired." Liu Xie waved his hand a little tiredly.
"The minister suspects that there is still a conspiracy around Your Majesty." Dong Zhuo did not leave, looked at the eunuchs around him and said: "Your Majesty will be deceived again, and the minister suggests that all the eunuchs in the palace be replaced and the matter will be thoroughly investigated." ”
"Dong ......" Liu Xie was furious when he heard this, and he was about to scold, but he was facing Dong Zhuo's cold gaze, and the words that came to his mouth were stuck in his throat, and he forced a smile: "Dong Xiang is inevitably too cautious." ”
"Your Majesty bears the heavy burden of the world's society, and is entrusted by the emperor, you must not let Your Majesty make any mistakes, you have to be cautious, I hope Your Majesty understands!"
Under Liu Xie's stiff smile, a small yellow door in the palace was arrested by Dong Zhuo one by one, and the huge Changle Palace, after half an hour, only Liu Xie was left alone, looking at the empty hall blankly.
