Chapter 8 The Dong Family

Emperor Guanghe of the Han Dynasty in November of the seventh year (i.e., 184 AD).

Zuo Zhonglang swept Huangfu Song across Jizhou, and the famous leader of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the great virtuous and good teacher Tiangong General Zhang Jiao, and his younger brother Digong General Zhang Bao and Rengong General Zhang Liang were defeated one after another.

Right Zhonglang will Zhu Jun pacify the Yellow Turban Rebel Army in Yingchuan, Nanyang and other three counties, and push the merit for Huangfu Songjin, seal the Xixiang Marquis, and move the town to the thief Zhonglang General. The Yellow Turban Rebellion that swept through the eight states was overthrown.

At the end of the winter of the seventh year of Guanghe (that is, November), Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty changed the name of the year to "Zhongping" on the grounds that the chaos in the world had gone and the country returned to peace, and the seventh year of Guanghe was changed to the first year of Zhongping. and issued an edict to grant amnesty to the world. The history is known as "Zhongping Reform Yuan".

Anyi County, the seat of Hedong County, at this moment, the Hedong Taishou Mansion is full of lights and is very lively.

Half a year ago, Hedong Taishou Dong Zhuo moved to Dongzhonglang to go to Jizhou to suppress thieves, who expected that Dong Zhuo, who had experienced a hundred battles, not only failed to conquer for a long time this time, but also went to prison and was imprisoned.

For example, today's amnesty for the world, Dong Zhuo also returned to Hedong to keep his original position. The whole house is celebrating the rebirth of the master after the catastrophe.

Originally, Dong Zhuo didn't want to celebrate with such fanfare, and there was nothing to celebrate, so he actually celebrated for losing the battle and not being killed, and it was not ashamed to say it.

But even Dong's mother spoke, and Dong Zhuo reluctantly accepted it. However, Dong Zhuo still greatly suppressed the scale, and only invited a few close people and subordinates from the house, and set up a few tables of banquets.

It was more than a little bit worse than the guests of the big banquet planned by Dong Min and Dong Huang, and the two of them had no choice but to obey Dong Zhuo's arrangement.

"Mother, Zhong Ying has worried you this time, and it is Zhong Ying's fault. Zhong Ying toasts you and apologizes to her mother. As the host, Dong Zhuo, who was sitting on the main seat in the lobby, got up and held the bronze jue in his hand, and bowed down to toast to Dong's mother, who was sitting in the same seat.

"My son has a heart, as long as my son is safe and sound, everything is fine." Dong's mother is nearly 70 years old, and her life is rare in her 70s, but Dong's mother is not old, and she is still healthy and invincible. Dong's mother lost her husband and then her son when she was middle-aged, and Dong Zhuo was so worried that she lost her sight.

Fortunately, Dong Zhuo, Dong Min and his grandchildren are filial, and everything is fine with the old man, this time Dong Zhuo was imprisoned, but the old lady was frightened, and she kept chattering all day long. Dong Zhuo returned safely, and the old man had to celebrate, Dong Zhuo had no way to refute it, so he had to rely on it.

Watching his mother take a sip of wine, Dong Zhuo drank all the wine in Juezhong. Then he turned and sat down, and when the maid filled the lord with wine, he raised the lord to the people:

"If you say anything superfluous, the old man won't say much. It's all my own family, so I don't need those polite words. Today, the old man was reinstated, and he had the help of Gongsheng, such a happy thing should be revealed. The old man does it first as a respect, and everyone is free. After speaking, he raised his lord and drank.

"The lord did it, and a certain family also did it, and such a good wine killed a certain family." A deafening voice came, Dong Zhuo looked around, and the first man on the right was nine feet long, with a tiger's back and a leopard's head and eyes, and a terrifying appearance, and a bearded man who looked to be about twenty years old, was drinking all the wine in the cup.

This person is Dong Zhuo's first fierce general under his command, and Huaxiong, a native of Kansai, is also. Hua Xiong followed Dong Zhuo on the battlefield in his early years, and for ten years, Dong Zhuo has always regarded him as his brother and brother. Now Hua Xiong is serving as a military Sima under Dong Zhuo.

Then they drank the wine of their own knighthood. Not to mention Hua Xiong, there were many people present who had good wine, but Dong Zhuo, as the master, did not speak, how could everyone dare to move.

In addition to Xu Rong, who had just been dug up by Dong Zhuo from Luoyang, the rest of Huaxiong, Dong Min, Dong Huang, Li Ru, etc. were all Dong Zhuo's family members and cronies.

Now in Dong Mansion, above Dong Zhuo is Dong's mother, Dong Zhuo's brother Dong Zhi died early, and there is a younger brother Dong Min Dong Shuying, Dong Min looks about thirty years old, with five big and three thick, and Dong Zhuo's appearance is similar, but not as burly as Dong Zhuo.

Next is Dong Zhuo's brother Dong Zhuo's only orphan, Dong Huang, the word Shaojin, but he looks like Dong Zhuo's brother and looks dignified.

Dong Zhuo had an eldest son, Dong Yu, who died of illness at an early age, leaving only a young daughter, Dong Bai. The eldest daughter Dong Yao married Li Ru, and the second daughter Dong Xuan has not yet reached the end of the year (and the Lu is the coming-of-age ceremony of ancient women, and after the Lu can be married), she is currently in the boudoir.

As for Dong Min, he has no heirs now.

Dong Zhuo's original wife was overly sad after the death of her eldest son, and died soon after. Although Dong Zhuo has also accepted many concubines, no one is a son and a half daughter born to Dong Zhuo.

Today's next generation of the Dong family has only one single seedling that has not yet been crowned.

After three rounds of drinking, the female dependents had already hugged Dong's mother and retreated, went to chat about family life in private, and gave the battlefield to a group of big men.

The dancing singers are still dancing in the hall, but a group of people have already drunk and talked upside down.

"Gongsheng...... Come, let's ...... In a toast...... Since then, they have been brothers...... It's yourself...... What about people, come ...... It's ......" At this time, Hua Xiong put his arm around Xu Rong's shoulders and said intermittently.

"Drink!" Xu Rong also drank a lot, he was already young and vigorous, and he drank too much wine, how could he admit it. To grab the wine is to drink it all in one gulp.

Among the others, Dong Min was no better, and Dong Huang had already fallen to the ground drunk.

Only Dong Zhuo and Li Ru are more sober. Dong Zhuo is really good drinker, whether it is Leng Zhuo in the previous life or Dong Zhuo in the present life, he has the ability to get drunk without getting drunk in a thousand cups, how can he get drunk so easily?

As for Li Ru, as a literati, he is not good at drinking, so naturally he will not really drink too much.

During the banquet, everyone pushed the cup and changed the lamp, shouted three and drank four, said five or six things, pointed out the country, inspired the words, and dreamed that he would be ten thousand households. It's really hilarious.

At the end of the drink, everyone was drunk and lying on the table. Only the hall was left in shambles.
