Dong Zhuo is now very strong, first controlling Shang Shutai, and then began to plan for the abolition of the establishment.

Lu Bu's martial arts are strong, he is invincible all over Luoyang, he is really an enemy of ten thousand people, Dong Zhuo is very happy, when he travels, he always takes him by his side to ensure that nothing goes wrong; made Dong Zhuo feel that Luoyang was his world, and what he did was even more arrogant and domineering.

Dong Zhuo invited Yuan Shao to Xianyang Yuan to discuss the abolition of the establishment, but Yuan Shao disagreed, and proposed to ask Yuan Kui, the Taifu, and said: "I'm afraid most people won't agree with your opinion!" ”

Dong Zhuo was furious when he heard this: "Shaft! Will the affairs of the world not decide me? Who would dare to disobey me now? It is said that Dong Zhuo's knife is unfavorable! ”

Yuan Shao ridiculed: "The world's healthy, is it only Dong Gong?" Then he took his saber and walked away.

Dong Zhuo knew Yuan Shao's prestige and status, and he couldn't do anything about him.

Dong Zhuo consulted Taifu Yuan Kui on the abolition of the establishment.

Yuan Kui was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and immediately agreed with Dong Zhuo's opinion. Yuan Shao abandoned his official position and fled out of Beijing.

On August 30, Dong Zhuo proposed the abolition of the establishment at the court meeting, and took Huo Guangshi as an example, since Bitian Yannian (whoever opposes it will be immediately executed), only Shangshu Lu Zhi of the Manchu Dynasty stood up to defend himself, Dong Zhuo was speechless and angry. Later, Dong Zhuo also wanted to find an opportunity to kill Lu Zhi, but was dissuaded by Cai Yong, Peng Bo and others, and Lu Zhi abandoned his official position and fled and returned to his hometown.

On September 1, in the front hall of Chongde, Shangshu Ding Palace presided over the abolition ceremony, Taifu Yuan Kui helped Liu Wei off the throne, lifted the jade seal and handed it to Liu Xie, and then helped Liu Xie to officially ascend the throne, which was to "offer the emperor".

Immediately afterwards, Dong Zhuo asked Shangshu to read out the policy, and impeached the Empress Dowager He for killing the Empress Dowager Dong, deposed him, and moved to Yong'an Palace.

On September 3, Empress Dowager He was poisoned and died. Dong Zhuo did not allow the imperial court to hold a funeral for the Empress Dowager, but asked Liu Xie to go to Fengchang Pavilion in Luoyang City to express condolences, and the ministers wore white clothes to the court for three days.

Dong Zhuo didn't expect that the matter of abolishing the establishment would be so simple, and the Yuan family would be so cooperative, and he was in a very happy mood, and he couldn't help but despise the Kwantung scholars even more.

On September 12, the imperial court appointed Liu Yu, who was far away in Jizhou, as the Great Sima (the position of the Lord), and issued a decree ordering him to come to Beijing to take up his post; Dong Zhuo was changed from Sikong to Tai Lieutenant, and concurrently led the former general, added a section, gave the axe Yue, Tiger Ben [bi], and changed the seal (county, in Shaanxi, now Mei County. Hou.

On September 19, Du Bian arrived in Luoyang all the way, and after meeting Su Shuang, the two immediately went to visit Dong Zhuo, who prepared a generous gift to Dong Zhuo, such as wine, refined salt, cloth, etc.

For Du Bian's arrival, as the envoy of the champion Hou, Dong Zhuo was very happy, and immediately took the two into Shu Shu for secret spying, with only Li Ru as an accompaniment.

Du Bian first submitted the list of the county guards after the transfer, and Dong Zhuo agreed to it, and ordered Li Ru to notify Shangshutai tomorrow to issue a holy decree to maintain the face of the court; The champion Hou gave him face, he couldn't help but be interested, so he could only respond cheerfully.

Secondly, Du Bian also proposed that the Champion Hou, Guangnian Hou and Guangping Hou were foreign ministers and would never interfere in the affairs of the Beijing Dynasty and China.

Dong Zhuo and Li Ru breathed a sigh of relief from this, and couldn't help but be overjoyed in their hearts; Previously, he had always been worried about the champion Hou and the two imperial sons-in-law interfering in the affairs of the DPRK and China, and they were strong and strong, which was by no means something that he Dong Zhuo could resist; However, in order for Gao Shun not to interfere in the affairs of the imperial court, he must pay a corresponding price.

Then, according to Xi Zhicai's instructions, Du Bian proposed that Wang Yue take people to protect Princess Wannian and go to Hedong County to visit her aunt; This move is not only to protect the princess of Wannian, but also to smoothly connect Wang Yue and others to the northern Xinjiang.

In this regard, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru agreed without hesitation; Princess Wannian has no impact on the situation in the court, and they are still troublesome in the palace, and Wang Yue is a swordsman, so he has little use value.

Sure enough, as Dong Zhuo and Li Ru expected, Gao Shun would definitely have a request.

In the end, Du Bian proposed that he hoped that the imperial court would appoint the champion Hou Gaoshun as the pastor of Jizhou, and appoint the Taishou Xiangrong of Zhuo County as the pastor of Youzhou, and in exchange, Zhou Fei, the Hou of Guangnian, withdrew from Beidi County, Anding County and Shangjun, and handed over the three places to Dong Zhuo to govern.

Dong Zhuo and Li Ru both understood Gao Shun's intentions, Dong Zhuo was still hesitating, but Li Ru signaled to Dong Zhuo and asked him to agree to this plan; Dong Zhuo pondered for a while and put forward his requests, first, Anding County and Beidi County could be accepted, Shang County would only accept the territory south of Jingshui, and at the same time, Zuo Fengyi's Xiayang County and others must be returned to Dong Zhuo for management; Second, the food trade cannot be stopped.

Du Bian readily agreed to Dong Zhuo's plan.

The reason why Dong Zhuo did not accept the northern part of Shangjun was that he wanted Zhou Fei and others to help resist the Qianghu and Xiongnu in the north, and he only needed to establish a defensive line south of Jingshui; And recovering the counties under Zuo Fengyi's jurisdiction can avoid Zhou Fei's surprise attack on Guanzhong and ensure the safety of the rear.

As for the Kwantung Prefecture, Dong Zhuo didn't care, he didn't mean to occupy it, instead of giving it to other clans, it would be better to hand it over to the champion Hou in exchange for a piece of peace, and the original Jizhou Mu was already on the way back to the capital, which happened to be vacant, and the transaction with Gao Shun was an accident.

For the profession of Jizhou Muyi, handing over to Gao Shun also has a great risky component, but it is not yet the time when the world is in chaos, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru did not expect that there would be a warlord melee in the future, otherwise, Dong Zhuo would never hand over Jizhou to Gao Shun so easily, so that his four states of territory would be connected; At this time, all states and counties have to pay taxes to the imperial court according to the regulations, who serves as the state pastor, has little impact on the imperial court, if Gao Shun is the Jizhou pastor, maintain the stability of Jizhou, pay more taxes, and Dong Zhuo has a lot of benefits.

As long as he could continue to trade grain from Gaoshun, the Liangzhou army would not lack officers and soldiers, and in this way, Dong Zhuo's self-confidence would be even more inflated; And Gao Shun's grain can not only be traded with money and other wealth, but also with horses, cattle and sheep, and even with young girls, which greatly relieves Dong Zhuo's pressure.

Seeing that Dong Zhuo accepted this condition so easily, Du Bian was very happy, and the military advisor's sacrificial wine drama was really powerful, and he guessed it all; Subsequently, the idea of exchanging people for food was proposed, regardless of men and women, as long as they arrived at the territory of the champion Hou, each person could exchange three stone of grain, in order to facilitate transportation, it could be signed by the local county order or Taishou, and then take the formalities to settle with Guangnianhou.

When Dong Zhuo heard about this transaction, he was even more overjoyed in his heart, the champion Hou was really his nobleman; For so long, he has maintained a very good trade relationship with the Gaoshun forces, and knowing that the champion Hou is a person who keeps his promises, he gladly accepted this trade terms; Besides, before, he had been trading with Gao Shun in human traffic, and a large number of Qiang girls and Han girls he plundered were sold to Zhou Fei, and indirectly sold to the champion Hou, this time it was just to increase the scope of the transaction, and anyone could accept it, but the price was also reduced a lot.

Li Ru felt that he would not stop doing anything, and proposed to directly hand over Hanoi County to Gao Shun for management, which would not only facilitate population trade, but also reduce a large number of defense forces, and in this way, the Montenegrin army would be within the strength of Gao Shun, and there would be no need for the imperial court to send troops, which would reduce the trouble of the imperial court; More importantly, Gao Shun's strength has always been not in harmony with the Kwantung clan, and Li Ru hopes to use Gao Shun's hand to suppress the power of the Jizhou clan and reduce the pressure of the Kwantung clan on the court and Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo accepted this suggestion very happily, he had long seen that Wang Kuang, the Taishou of Hanoi County, was not pleasing to the eye.

For Du Bian, this was an unexpected achievement, and he was very happy to take this piece of fat.

Dong Zhuo, Gao Shun, Zhou Fei, Fang Liang and others all belong to the Kansai martial arts, and they have a natural sense of closeness, and they don't have as many calculations as the Kanto scholars, so Dong Zhuo is very relieved of Gao Shun.

Li Ru, as a wise man, didn't think so, only forming an in-law family was the most reliable relationship, so he proposed the idea of marriage to Su Shuang and Du Bian, hoping that Gao Shun's sister would marry Dong Zhuo's nephew.

was rejected by Su Shuang on the grounds that the age gap was too large.

Li Ru had no choice but to give up, and proposed to sign an alliance treaty, form the Kansai Alliance, and jointly deal with the Kwantung clan, Du Bian refused on the grounds that he had no right to decide, but he must report to the lord after he goes back, and ask the lord Gao Shun to decide,

Dong Zhuo is now in high spirits, and he didn't take this as a big deal, and laughed it off.

Both sides were overjoyed, both achieved their respective goals, and achieved a win-win situation.
