Chapter 11: Temptation
Jiang Feng followed Dong Zhuo to the back garden, and saw a flower garden in the courtyard, and more than ten people were already seated in the courtyard. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
With Lu Bu's memory, Jiang Feng recognized these people. The leader is the Taifu Yuan Kui, followed by the current head of the Eighth Captain of the West Garden, Yuan Shao, Situ Wang Yun, and many high-ranking ministers.
Dong Zhuo came to the gate of the garden, and did not rush in, but hid at the door and listened for a while.
Taifu Yuan Kui said: "Everyone, do you know what happened when Dong Zhuo called us here this time? β
"Don't you know? It must be for the abolition of the Son of Heaven. Dong Zhuo is a wolf with ambitions, vainly trying to dominate the dynasty, and his heart is vicious. A minister said indignantly.
"The Son of Heaven is the foundation of a dynasty, and changing the Son of Heaven is the way to shake the foundation of the country and bring about its own destruction. We must not compromise later, and let Dong Zhuo know that the power of heaven cannot be violated and the mandate of heaven cannot be violated. Situ Wang Yun said earnestly.
Yuan Shao snorted and said, "Dong Zhuo used to be just a Western Liang Thorn History, but he was only a fourth-grade official position. If we hadn't promoted him, when would it be his turn to point fingers and talk about the court? He's just a barbarian. β
Everyone chimed in, "Yes, yes, yes, how can Dong Zhuo have a reason to talk about the Son of Heaven, but it's just a Xiliang barbarian." β
"Uh-huh." Dong Zhuo snorted heavily, and when he entered the courtyard gate, everyone who was still discussing just now instantly held their breath and turned out of their breath, and they didn't dare to come out.
Dong Zhuo's eyes were like electricity, and he glanced at everyone. Taifu Yuan Kui and Situ Wang Yun all avoided Dong Zhuo's gaze with a weak heart, and the others lowered their heads. Only Yuan Shao was not afraid, and glared angrily at Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo strode forward and laughed: "Colleagues, let me introduce you to someone." As he spoke, he let Lu Bu behind him out.
Everyone was taken aback, and Yuan Shao said in an unbelievable tone: "This person, could it be Lu Bu?" β
Jiang Feng took a step forward, bowed and saluted: "The lowly Lu Bu pays a visit to the Taifu, the general, and the ministers. As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar, because they all knew that Lu Bu was originally the master of Ding Yuan's subordinates. The position of the chief bookkeeper can be described as a confidant position, basically Ding Yuan's second-in-command, and how did he get to Dong Zhuo's side?
Dong Zhuo was obviously very satisfied with the shocking effect brought by Lu Bu's appearance, and laughed again, sat down in the first seat, and said, "Ding Yuan, this person, is really hateful. Stubborn and sinister, he even tried to harm me. However, I am destined to return, Ji people have their own natural appearance, Feng Xian knows the righteousness and knows that a certain family is a loyal minister of the loyal Han, and this Ding Yuan plotted to kill a certain family is a traitor and thief. So he sent it to me with his own hand. β
As he spoke, Dong Zhuo waved his hand, and his servants brought a box and put it on the table. Yuan Shao opened it and saw that it was Ding Yuan's head, and in the hot weather, the corpse was still rotting and stinking. Most of the people present were civil servants, who had never seen such blood, and many people vomited at the moment.
Dong Zhuo's face did not change, he took a glass of wine and drank it all, and said, "Ministers, how did you think about my previous proposal?" If you want me to say, King Chen Liuwang is the emperor appointed by God, if we don't follow the sky, I'm afraid we will end up like Ding Yuan. β
When the ministers heard this, they dared to speak, and they only said that they were right, and they did not have the appearance of righteous indignation and righteousness just now.
Only Yuan Shao, when he heard this, slapped the table, got up and shouted: "Dong Zhuo, do you really dare to usurp the dynasty?" The words of chaos are punishable in their hearts. As he spoke, his hand was still stretched to his waist.
Jiang Feng watched Yuan Shao stretch out his hand and draw his sword, and his mind stormed for a while, if he was attached to the Yuan clan now, it would not be difficult to take Dong Zhuo's head. But even so, he can succeed by luck, and at best he can replace Ding Yuan as a ruling Jinwu. If it fails, it will be difficult to get a dead end. But attaching himself to Dong Zhuo must be soaring, at least before the princes crusaded against Dong Zhuo. In this way, Lu Bu's choice is also his only choice now.
Jiang Feng made up his mind, and the shot was like lightning, but the saber in Yuan Shao's hand had not yet been drawn, but he was bullied by Jiang Feng and pressed on the seat. Jiang Feng pressed Yuan Shao's shoulder with his right hand, grabbed Yuan Shao's right hand with his left hand, and threw the sword directly into Yuan Shao's neck.
Yuan Shao struggled, but found that he couldn't move, and his life was still in the hands of the other party. The cold light of the sword blade flashed, and Yuan Shao could even feel the cold hairs on his neck stand up.
Jiang Feng said in a deep voice: "Captain Yuan, why bother to be angry, if you have something to say, I'm afraid it will be difficult to clean up if you hurt your harmony." As he spoke, the strength in his hand increased by another point.
Yuan Shao's eyes changed several times, and finally his hand was loosened, and he changed his words: "Feng Xian's words are reasonable, but I was reckless." β
Seeing this, Dong Zhuo was even more overjoyed, and said: "Fengxian, don't be unreasonable, General Benchu is a smart person, he must know which one is heavy and which one is light, right?" β
Jiang Feng withdrew his hand and retreated, Yuan Shao breathed a sigh of relief, and no longer had the momentum he had before, so he changed his words: "Dong Sikong's heart of worrying about the country is beyond my reach. β
Dong Zhuo slapped the table and said loudly: "Then it's decided, let's choose an auspicious day to establish a new monarch, and the matters to be handled have to depend on you!" β
The whole house was silent, and Taifu Yuan Kui's lips trembled several times, but he still didn't say anything after all.
When the wine was gone, Dong Zhuo took Lu Bu's hand and said: "Feng Xian is really my arm, with Feng Xian to help me, the big thing can be decided." Don't worry, when the new king is canonized, I will definitely crown you ......"
At this time, Li Ru coughed on the side.
Dong Zhuo was stunned and changed his words: "I will definitely show the Son of Heaven, make you the Marquis of Duting, and lead the general." β
Jiang Feng thanked him again and left the house.
Li Ru saw Lu Bu walking away and hurriedly said to Dong Zhuo: "The lord must be cautious, and he must not be truthful. β
Dong Zhuo said: "You have also been careful, now that I have a heavy army in my hands and have controlled the capital, who can do anything to me?" I dare to abolish the emperor, what else can't I do? β
Li Ru said: "No, although the country of the Han Dynasty is declining now, the heart of the world's scholars to the Han is immortal, and the lord must rely on the name of the emperor to act." If you don't go through the emperor's edict, you will fall into the pretext of deceiving the king. Now that the general He Jin is dead, the princes and dragons in various places will be self-reliant, if the words and deeds of the adults cannot convince the public, we will become the target of the public. β
Dong Zhuo pondered for a moment and said, "You're right, it's true. However, Lu Bu is his own family, so it doesn't matter. β
Li Ru said: "Lord, Lu Bu must not be guarded. This person is greedy and forgetful, since he can kill Ding Yuan for profit, one day he may betray your lord for profit. β
Dong Zhuo disagreed, and said: "I treat Fengxian like this, how dare he betray me?" β
Li Ru saw Dong Zhuo say this: "In my opinion, Lu Bu is brave but unscrupulous, greedy and indecisive. It can only be placed as a pioneer by the side, and cannot be entrusted with important tasks by the army. β
Dong Zhuo said: "There is no need to say more at this time, I am free to assert." Let's talk about how Yuan Shao should deal with it, this person has always despised a certain family, which is really hateful. β
Li Ru said: "The fourth generation of the Yuan family and the third prince of the protΓ©gΓ© are all over the world, and they have a very high reputation among the scholars. β
Dong Zhuo felt reasonable and acted according to his words.
(The next chapter is an analysis of how He Jin was killed and how Dong Zhuo seized power, not the main text.) Although I thought about deleting it, I decided to write it down after thinking about it. The characters of the Three Kingdoms have been processed by many literati and ink writers to be too face-painted, but this face is not a real person. Although I don't write real history, just my story, I still want to present you with a more objective historical figure. οΌ
