Hedong County, the backyard of Taishou Mansion.

"Dong Huang, I heard that the thing has been built?" Dong Zhuo took Huaxiong, Gao Shun and others into the courtyard in a big stride, looked at the people waiting in the courtyard, and asked.

Dong Huang waited for Dong Zhuo to finish speaking, and hurriedly replied: "Uncle Qiyu, the little nephew has been made according to your instructions, but I don't know if it is in line with my uncle's intentions." After speaking, he turned to the person next to him, "Master Li, present the things to my uncle." ”

At this time, a shirtless sturdy man next to him presented a square plate covered with a red cloth to Dong Zhuo, and said, "Qi Qi Taishou, this is something that we built with the drawings you gave you. Please be too careful. ”

Dong Zhuo stretched out his hand to lift the red cloth on it, only to see a pair of bronze flat-bottomed rings and four smooth ring-shaped iron discs with a notched end leaping into view.

Dong Zhuo fixed his eyes and saw that it was stirrups and horseshoes. He picked up a horseshoe and looked at it carefully, feeling that it was not much different from what he had seen in his previous life, and then put it down.

After figuring out all the six things, and after not noticing the problem, Dong Zhuo ordered someone to bring a horse.

Directing a group of grooms to nail horseshoes to the four hooves and fastening stirrups to the sides of the saddle with belts. That's when it stopped.

Dong Huang, who had been watching from the side, asked puzzledly: "Dare to ask uncle, what are you doing with these things?" ”

Dong Zhuo laughed out loud and said, "If you ask so much, just watch from the sidelines, and you will naturally know later." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Dong Huang to answer, he came to the horse, stepped on the stirrup under the left side of the saddle with his left foot, and turned over on the horse with a little bit of strength. He took the reins from the groom, whipped the horse's buttocks, and rode out of the gate, leaving behind a courtyard of still dazed people.

Dong Zhuo quickly whipped up and rushed out directly from the east gate of Anyi County, startling the city gate guards in a daze. galloped around the outside of the city, and completely released the depression in his heart recently.

Dong Zhuo didn't say a word here, and rode out of the city on the horse that he had transformed, which made a large group of people in the mansion anxious, and even Li Ru and Du Ji, who had been dealing with official business, were alarmed.

Huaxiong, Dong Huang and others hurriedly went out to look for it, and when they heard that Dong Zhuo had gone out from the east gate, a group of people were about to ride out of the city to find it, but they saw Dong Zhuo believing that the horse was reined in and returned slowly. Only then did the crowd relax.

When he heard that everyone was so aggressive, Dong Zhuo couldn't cry or laugh and was secretly moved at the same time, he would not let this group of relatives and friends be buried in this troubled world.

Back in the Taishou Mansion, Dong Zhuo rolled the saddle and dismounted, threw the reins to Dong Huang, and asked everyone to take turns riding in the small school field in the backyard.

Dong Zhuo took Li Ru and Du Ji to the backyard again, and said to Master Li, the leader of the blacksmiths: "Yes, the things you have built are very good, and a certain family is very satisfied." A certain family wants to use you as the craftsman of Hedong County, specializing in building ordnance, so that you can stay under a certain family in the future to do things for a certain family, I don't know what the master wants? ”

Dong Zhuo's words were tantamount to fairy sounds, which made this eight-foot-tall burly man so excited that his ears were red and his neck was thick, and he immediately knelt on the ground and bowed to Dong Zhuo non-stop. said in a trembling voice: "Thank you for the gift of Taishou, the villain will definitely repay the kindness of Lord Taishou in the future." ”

This Master Li's name is Li Tie, and his family has been a blacksmith for generations, and his skills are unmatched in Hedong County. There are many children of rich families in Hedong who have asked him to build weapons. It's just that no matter how high the skill is, it seems pale and powerless under the class hierarchy of the farmers and industrialists in this era. Although Dong Zhuo gave him a position that he had never heard of, he was also doing things for the imperial court, and he ate imperial grain, so his identity was naturally different.

After Dong Zhuo explained to Master Li that they would continue to build stirrups and horseshoes, he left with Li Ru and Du Ji.

When he came to the lobby, when Dong Zhuo knelt down on the main seat, Li Ru reported to Dong Zhuo about his recent government affairs.

"Father-in-law, my son-in-law thinks that we have to recruit some talents to help deal with government affairs." Li Ru said resentfully. Du Yi, who was kneeling on the lower left, nodded again and again.

Recently, Dong Zhuo has been busy with military affairs, and government affairs have been completely entrusted to Li Ru and Du Ji, which makes the two of them tired enough.

"Oh! The old man has always had this intention. But I don't know who Wen Zheng can be? Dong Zhuo immediately came to his senses when he heard about the talent, and asked with anticipation.

When Li Ru saw Dong Zhuo's expression, he dared to sell Guanzi, and hurriedly reported to Dong Zhuo: "Father-in-law, our Anyi County is home to the famous Hedong Wei family. There is a person in this Wei family, whose name is Wei Qian, and the word is coveted. He is a rare talent, who is knowledgeable, brilliant in writing and excellent in calligraphy. ”

At this time, Du Yi interjected: "Lord Qiqi, I have also heard of this Hedong Wei Bo. I heard that this person has been famous since he was a child, knowledgeable, good at reciting poetry, and his calligraphy is often praised by Shilin. ”

After Dong Zhuo heard this, he learned that the Hedong Wei family was actually in Anyi County, Hedong County. This Hedong Wei family is amazing, it is said that after the general Wei Qing back then, although it is now in decline, it is also in the forefront of the Shilin of Hedong County. Cai Wenji, a famous talented woman in this era, first married a person named Wei Zhongdao from the Wei family in Hedong, but not long after the new marriage, Wei Zhongdao died of illness, and Cai Wenji, who became a widow, returned to her mother's house. Wait, Wei Bo and Wei Zhongdao, these two people shouldn't be brothers, right? Dong Zhuo couldn't help but think.

"In this case, this matter will be handed over to Wenzheng to deal with." Dong Zhuo really felt that there were too few literati under his command, and if he went on an expedition in the future and took Li Ru with him, all matters could only be handled by Du Ji alone. The affairs of the twenty counties under the rule of Hedong County must not be exhausted to death Du Bohou. This is not kind, no matter how you drop it, you have to find someone to help Du Ji.

"By the way, my father-in-law, there is another person I think my father-in-law will definitely be interested in him!" Li Ru suddenly bought the guanzi and smiled mysteriously.

Dong Zhuo was a little stunned, this Li Ru was still playing mysteriously with himself.

Just when Dong Zhuo was about to ask Li Ru and Du Ji, the old housekeeper in the house ran in without even saying hello and said breathlessly: "Old ...... Master...... Sky...... The messenger of the Son of Heaven is here......"

When Dong Zhuo heard this, he hurriedly gathered everyone under his command, bathed in incense, and greeted the angel.

After Dong Zhuo and the others all knelt down in the courtyard, Xiao Huangmen, the leader, took two little eunuchs and more than a dozen Jin Wuwei to come forward to announce the decree.

"The edict said that Hedong was too guarded by Dong Zhuo, although it was unfavorable to suppress thieves in the past, but his loyalty was unwavering, his sincere heart did not change, and he was diligent in state affairs. Today, Dong Zhuo was specially named the Marquis of Guannei, and gave 1,000 taels of gold, 1,000 brocades, and 10 good horses. Chin this! ”

"Chen Hedong is too shou Dong Zhuo to receive the order, long live, long live, long live!" Dong Zhuo immediately kowtowed, and after the mountain shouted long live, he got up and took the holy decree.

"Congratulations to Master Dong for sealing the Inner Hou!"

After talking to the little yellow door and the snake, Li Ru took the little yellow door and more than ten people from Jin Wuwei up and down, and then sent them away.

Dong Zhuo gave ten good horses to all his subordinates, and gave Dong Min a thousand taels of gold and brocade to give to his soldiers.
