In the early spring of the third year of Guanghe, Luoyang received a recital from Shi Hansui, the mayor of Jincheng.

It is said that the new Western Governor Beigong Bo and Jincheng Taishou Chen Yi had a fierce conflict, and the two sides attacked each other at the end of the second year of Guanghe, and Chen Yi and Beigong Bo were killed one after another, which led to the riots of the 36 Qiang tribes of Xiliang.

Fortunately, Han Sui came forward to mediate and calmed down the Qiang tribes.

So to the effect, blah blah blah.

……

This piece did not attract undue attention in Luoyang.

The riots in the Western Liangqiang Department, go with him, as long as the Han family's rivers and mountains are not chaotic.

However, the death of Jincheng Taishou and the death of the Western Governor are not a trivial matter after all. Emperor Liu Hong didn't care too much about it this time, and generously placed the two official positions on Han Sui's head together. The former Xiliang celebrity, Jincheng Changshi became the most authoritative person in Xiliang overnight, which made many people unacceptable at once.

And the one who can't accept this fact the most is Dong Zhuo, who is inspecting Hedong.

******

"What about Yu'er? Is Yu'er good? ”

When Dong Zhuo heard the news of Beigong Bo's death, his head buzzed, and it immediately turned into a pot of porridge. His body shook a few times, and he almost fainted. Fortunately, there was a general beside him who was quick and stepped forward to support Dong Zhuo.

"My lord, please take care!"

The general was nine feet tall, with a tiger body and a wolf waist, and a leopard's head and ape arms. The pitch-black face resembles the bottom of a pot, with a pair of copper bell-like eyes. He has a black beard under the jaw and a straight nose and a broad mouth. He stood behind Dong Zhuo with a nervous expression on his face.

Dong Zhuo shook his head vigorously and pushed the general away.

grabbed Li Ru's arm and yelled, "Hurry up, what's wrong with Yu'er?" Is there any news of her? Wen Zheng replied quickly. ”

What kind of background is Dong Zhuo, a well-known Northwest hero, Kong Wu is powerful.

Li Ru gasped when he was caught, and said with a wry smile: "Father, there is a report from the imperial court, how can you talk about the eldest sister?" ”

"yes, yes, how could it be...... Yu'er is so smart, how could she turn her face with Chen Yi and cause even more conflict? That Chen Yi is just a powerless scholar, with Yu'er's help, how could Uncle Beigong die in battle? ”

Dong Zhuo said: "This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible!" ”

Li Ru glanced at the general behind Dong Zhuo, "Wen Kai, please take care of you outside the door, I want to say a few words to the lord." ”

"Wen Zheng should not be polite...... Lord, please also mourn, Wen Kai retires! ”

The general finished his sentence and exited the room. He closed the door and stood ten steps from it.

Li Ru hesitated, "Father, Confucianism also feels that there is something strange about this matter. That mere Chen Yi, how is the opponent of the eldest sister and the eldest brother-in-law. What's more, there is also a tiger and wolf general by the side of the eldest brother-in-law, how could the eldest brother-in-law die? ”

Dong Zhuo was stunned and said, "The general of the tiger and wolf? Who is it? ”

"Father, have you forgotten that Ugly is by the side of the eldest sister. The last time the second sister came, I also mentioned to Ru that Ah Ugly was very close to the eldest sister...... But his temper knew that if anyone was good to him, he would repay him tenfold. After Ru received the report from the palace, he wondered, how could Ah Ugly watch his eldest brother-in-law defeated? ”

Dong Zhuo suddenly realized, "Yes, Ah Chou is by Yu'er's side." ”

Although he is not close to this son, Dong Zhuo also knows that his son who is like a monster is not very old, but he has the courage to be unstoppable. Hearing Li Ru mention Dong Li, he couldn't help but feel a little confused and uneasy in his heart.

"Confucianism thinks that this matter must be related to the Korean Covenant."

"Wenzheng, what do you mean......" Dong Zhuo shuddered, and his bull-eyed eyes suddenly appeared.

Li Ru nodded and said, "When I was a Confucian teenager on a study tour, I heard someone mention Han Sui. This man is scheming and resourceful. He has a great prestige among the 36 Qiang tribes in Xiliang, not only is he respected by the Qiang people, but even the Qingliu party people praise him. If he wants to play tricks, Ru thinks that no matter how smart the eldest sister is, she is afraid that she will not be Han Wenyue's opponent. ”

Dong Zhuo said angrily: "If it is really a Han Wenyue, a certain person will be killed!" ”

"Father, please take a break from the wrath of the thunder, I'm afraid that it won't be so easy to move the Korean covenant now."

Dong Zhuo said: "Wenzheng, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Han Wenyue is now the Taishou of Jincheng and the governor of the west. In terms of office, he is as old as you; In terms of prestige, his reputation in Xiliang is not necessarily smaller than yours, but among the Qingliu Party members, you are far inferior to him. After Li Ru finished speaking, he glanced at Dong Zhuo in fear. Seeing that Dong Zhuo didn't react much, he immediately continued: "Moreover, if the matter of the eldest sister is really related to him, I am afraid that Han Sui has already become wary of us." Also, he easily obtained the official positions of Taishou and Du Lieutenant this time, although Jincheng is remote and desolate, and no one wants to go there, but I am afraid that there will be ...... inside."

"You mean, Zhang Rang?"

"If it weren't for the Ten Standing Attendants, what virtue would he have and how could he take on the position of Taishou?"

Dong Zhuo gradually calmed down, knelt down and nodded: "When Wen Zheng said this, I also feel the same way. ”

"Father, your foundation is not stable, and it is not appropriate to turn your face with Zhang Rang and other eunuchs at this time. Moreover, this matter must have made the general's face gloomy. You think, the Western Lieutenant was won by you and the general, but if something like this happens, the general must be very angry, blaming you for not knowing people. Your immediate priority now is to gain the understanding of the great general, and at the same time to form a good eunuch...... Having a solid foundation is the most important thing you need to think about right now. ”

Li Ru's words, Dong Zhuo greatly appreciated.

"If it weren't for Wenzheng, Zhuo would have almost missed a big thing. Just ......"

"If the father believes, he is willing to seek it for the father. Approximately ...... Korean If the eldest sister is okay, Ah Chou will definitely let her go home. Confucianism thought that before getting the exact news of the eldest sister, it was the best policy to stay still. ”

"Just follow the text."

Dong Zhuo and Li Ru planned for another moment, and were about to get up, when they suddenly heard a commotion outside the door.

The two looked at each other and couldn't help but wonder: who was so bold that he dared to make a loud noise outside the door?

"Wen Kai, who's making a noise?"

Dong Zhuo and Li Ru pushed open the door and walked out.

I saw a person dressed as a family general shouting loudly at the door: "I am a member of the Lintao Dong Mansion, and I have something important to report." ”

But the general was unmoved, "The Lord is just discussing important matters, and do not disturb them." ”

"Get out of the way!"

"If you make any more noise, don't blame me for the ruthlessness of my sword."

At this time, Dong Zhuo came out, listened to the general's words, and couldn't help nodding.

"Wen Kai, let him come over."

When the general heard this, he hurriedly turned sideways to give way. The family general hurriedly walked over, held a letter in both hands, and knelt on one knee at the bottom of the steps, "Master, there is something at home, and the master's mother ordered the villain to report it, so there is a noise outside the door, and the master is still asked to punish him." ”

Dong Zhuoyi frowned, and an ominous omen was born in his heart.

He glanced at Li Ru, who immediately understood, and walked down the steps to take the letter from the man's hand.

Turned around and walked up the steps and put the letter in Dong Zhuo's hand. The envelope was painted with fire paint and stamped with Mrs. Dong's letter.

After Dong Zhuo hesitated for a moment, he reached out and picked up the letter.

When he opened it and looked at it, his eyes suddenly straightened, his hands trembled, and he showed an expression of anger and sadness intertwined.

"Father?"

Li Ru found that Dong Zhuo's face was wrong, and couldn't help but step forward and shout.

Dong Zhuo shouted at this time: "Really, really, really...... It hurts me! ”

A mouthful of blood spurted out, and Dong Zhuo fell to the ground on his back, unconscious. Li Ru suddenly shook his hands and feet, "Someone, someone!" ”

Some family members in the house ran over and were shocked to see this situation.

Hurriedly lifted Dong Zhuo up and sent him to the bedroom. Li Ru shouted loudly: "Quick, hurry up and invite Lang Zhong." ”

The general had already put the general on the ground, and the sword was on his neck, "Who are you a demon who dares to harm the lord?" ”

"I'm not a demon, I'm not a demon...... the general shouted loudly: "I am under the command of Gongzi, my surname is Dong Ming, and my name is Baimo...... My word was given by the eldest lady, I'm not a demon, hurry up and let me go. ”

"General Wen Kai, but he is a family member of the Dong Mansion in Lintao."

Li Ru had heard this name before, and the last time Dong Zhao came, he also mentioned this matter.

After all, it was the eldest sister who personally gave the name and surname, so Li Ru also had some impressions. The general was stunned and put away his sword.

"Wen Kai, I bother you to protect your father, wait for Lang Zhong to come."

"Whoa!"

Dong Zhuo was in a coma, and Li Ru naturally became the one who gave orders in this mansion. He walked over and bent down to pick up the blood-stained letter, and asked Dong E to stand up again.

Glancing at the letter, a calm person like Li Ru couldn't help but change his face.

"Eldest sister, eldest sister is really dead?"

Dong E was shocked, but when he heard Li Ru's question, he hurriedly replied respectfully: "Uncle Qiyu, in mid-March, Gongzi returned to Lintao from Hanyang County and brought back ...... When the mistress heard that the eldest lady was dead, she fainted at that time...... Then he couldn't afford to get sick, and even Lang Zhong couldn't do anything. The fourth lady saw that the situation was not good, so she ordered me to come and deliver the letter. ”

Li Ru glanced at ten lines and read the letter.

"Korean about, Korean about...... I will kill you! He paused, crumpling the letter into a ball of paper with both hands.
