Chapter 16 The Dragon and Tiger Fight in the Palace

Dong Zhuo was just about to open his mouth and order the warriors in the hall to drag Ding Yuan out and scold him, when he suddenly saw a majestic person standing behind Ding Yuan, who was dressed from head to toe and was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Dong Zhuo's heart was both angry and afraid, so he had to cough a few times, turned his face to Li Ru on the side and said: "Li Ru, this Ding Thorn Shi is old, it is inconvenient to get up, my throat is itchy, you can talk to him." ”

As soon as these words came out, the banquet was filled with a smell that only exists on the battlefield, and everyone held their breath.

You must know that Ding Yuan's power is not as good as Dong Zhuo, but he is also a thorn in history, in charge of the military and political affairs of a state, Dong Zhuo actually let a middle-aged strategist talk to him at this time, not only is he disrespectful in terms of seniority, but even his status is very different!

When everyone was puzzled, they saw Li Ru slowly get up, bow to everyone present with a smile, and then pretend to be righteous and awe-inspiring, and asked, "What Fang Cai Ding said in the history of the assassin, thinking that this meal was given by the Son of Heaven?" ”

Ding Yuan was already angry in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "Yes, it is exactly what the old man said, the old man has been eating Han Lu for a long time, and he has educated the people in the domain of the Han Dynasty. It's not like some people, who bring disaster to the country and the people! ”

Li Ru not only didn't get angry after hearing this, but laughed obscenely, and said in a long voice: "I thought that Ding Tingshi had a good reputation for my lord, he was a Hanchen, and he had no intention of disobedience, and I hope Ding Tingshi will not talk nonsense." ”

Ding Yuan was taken aback, his eyes instantly became round, and he said in surprise: "You kid, don't be untrustworthy, when did I say that your lord was disobedient?" ”

Li Ru no longer faced Ding Yuan, but faced everyone, gave a salute, and explained: "You can be discerning, this banquet was set up by Lord Dong Zhuo and others, and this meal was also made by Lord Dong Zhuo's imperial dining room. But Lord Ding Yuan said, this banquet was given by the Son of Heaven, and the emperor's grace, didn't it mean that my lord became the Son of Heaven! ”

Li Ru is resourceful and eloquent, and the first half of this statement is eloquent; And the further he went, the more momentum he had, the faster he spoke, and in the end, Ding Yuan was sweating profusely and losing color for a while.

Yuan Shao couldn't look at it from the side, slapped the table, stood up and relieved Ding Yuan's siege and said: "Li Ru, don't beat around the bush, Jianyang Gong is just a momentary talk, and has no other meaning, even if we admit that this meal is due to Master Dong, what do you say?" ”

Li Ru crossed a trace of cunning in his eyes, and pretended to be sad and said: "Alas, I pity you, I think you are either the ministers of the court and the central government who have worked all their lives for the Han Dynasty, or you are educating the people in the fiefdom to assassinate Shi Taishou, and silently dedicate your efforts to the Han Dynasty." And now? The real Son of Heaven and the Young Emperor of the Han Dynasty, but he can't prepare a banquet for you, and he still needs to be rewarded by my family, Li Ru is very sad, I am unwise to the emperor! ”

After that, Li Ru hid his face with the sleeves of his robe, as if tears were flowing out, and he himself retreated to his position.

In the main hall, there was already an uproar. Li Ru's words are said to be this, except for the palace guards like Zhang Duan, even the stupidest person should hear what Dong Zhuo is going to discuss this time.

Cao Cao also couldn't help but say below: "I heard that Li Ru was resourceful, but I didn't expect to be so sharp-toothed, but it's a pity that he followed the wrong master."

Yuan Shao saw that everyone was talking, but no one was in charge. Dong Zhuo looked down at the group proudly again, he gritted his teeth, got up and asked loudly, "Dong Zhuo!" Do you want to be emperor yourself? That's a rebellion! ”

Yuan Shao's words were obviously a little too heavy, Yuan Kui stood up from the front position, pointed at Yuan Shao with his finger, and scolded: "Originally, don't be rude, when did Taishi Dong say this, quickly sit down for me!" ”

When Yuan Shao saw his uncle come forward, even if he couldn't get angry, he could only sit down honestly.

Dong Zhuo said on the high platform: "Everyone, I know that since I entered Beijing, many people have seen the old man's power and thought that I was going to do something rebellious. Today, I, Dong Zhuo, are here to tell you that I am also a courtier of the Han Dynasty, although our emperor is not virtuous enough, but even if there is another emperor, it will be the Liu family who will be replaced! ”

"Another emperor!?"

The situation during the banquet was about to erupt, and Yuan Shao was angry, and at this time, Ding Yuan was angry again.

He decisively questioned Dong Zhuo, and then overturned several cases in front of him, stood up, pulled out his sword and pointed at Dong Zhuo, and said loudly: "The emperor is the foundation of the country, how can you say that you can change it, how easy it is for the word 'change' to come out of the mouth of a traitor like you!" ”

Seeing Ding Yuan like this, Dong Zhuo's eyes were bigger than a bull's eye, he slapped the table in front of him fiercely, and even brushed the bronze wine jue to the ground with his sleeve, and then dragged his fat body to the high stairs, opposite Ding Yuan, and scolded angrily: "Okay, you Ding Jianyang, I will endure it again and again, you are so rude, come here!" ”

Hearing Dong Zhuo's order, the three generals on the high platform, except for the strategist Li Ru, all rose with swords.

Han Kui also waved his gesture, and when Zhang Duan and the other guards saw it, they also pulled out the weapons on their waists. Zhang Duan was holding a sword in his hand, his heart was pounding, he had heard Han Kui say before he came, this time the discussion was likely to be a fight, so he had already prepared for it. But after all, it's the first time he's done to someone of this status, it's a history of assassination! Who can not be nervous!

Looking at Li Ru again, he actually sat in his seat, as if everything was as he expected, squinting his eyes and waiting for the next development.

Ding Yuan glanced back at Lu Bu and ordered, "Fengxian, let's do it!" ”

Lu Bu got the order, a trace of coldness crossed his eyes, he drew his sword to block in front of Ding Yuan, and shouted at everyone: "You rats, for the embarrassment of my father-in-law, ask me about the weapon in Lu Fengxian's hand first!" ”

The momentum was like a rainbow, unstoppable, and this voice almost suppressed all the people.

But the soldier's duty is to obey the order, Han Kui waved his hand violently, and Zhang Duan rushed forward with a sword with the others.

The three generals around Dong Zhuo did not move, their duty was to protect Dong Zhuo, if Dong Zhuo made any mistakes, then all the ambitions and hegemony were just a pipe dream.

Lu Bu's martial arts are superb, and he is not a lie.

Everyone rushed over, a small soldier drew his sword, and Lu Bu went to greet him. As soon as the two swords crossed in the air, there was a crisp sound, and the flying cloud boots had already kicked down the person, and the man fell to the ground without saying a word, and flew straight to the position of the palace pillar, his back hit the pillar, making a muffled sound, and then the man covered his stomach and moaned.

When the others saw this, they were all stunned and did not dare to step forward easily.

Lu Bu turned his back to the palace gate, faced the high platform, pointed his sword at Dong Zhuo, and said, "Dong Zhuo, old thief, I will kill you and take your dog's life!" ”

Dong Zhuo had already seen how Lu Bu had severely injured one person under the siege of more than 20 people, and those 20 people were also the best among the recruits, and he knew this. Hearing Lu Bu say this at this time, he was even more shocked, almost slipped off his seat, barely sat down, and said loudly outside the hall door: "Quick, come on!" The guards outside the hall quickly entered the hall and ...... again Go find more people! ”

Outside the hall, Zhao Yue and the others had already heard the quarrels in the hall, and thought they were just deliberating, and then they heard the sound of weapons colliding, and Zhao Yue was a little breathless.

asked Liu Zheng, but Liu Zheng told him that he was not allowed to trespass without an order, and he could only continue to wait with Cao Ping.

At this time, they all heard Dong Zhuo's voice, Liu Zheng did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly ordered Cao Ping and Zhao Yue to look for patrolling guards in other places in the palace, and he rushed into the door.

Zhao Yue didn't know what was going on in the palace, he couldn't rest assured that Liu Zheng was not at ease, and he was even more relieved that he was not at ease with his eldest brother Zhang Duan, who was a guard in the palace. Seeing Cao Ping running away quickly, he went to call the patrol, and Zhao Yue broke into the main hall.

The scene in the hall surprised Zhao Yue, first of all, the magnificent decoration, and then Lu Bu, who was standing in the center of the hall and facing more than 20 people of Dong Jun with a sword.

"Is that him?" Zhao Yue muttered in a small voice.

"Warriors, don't be afraid, come with me!"

Between the fights, there were rapid changes, and Zhao Yue was not given a chance to think. Han Kui personally stepped forward with his sword and besieged LΓΌ Bu with Zhang Duan and other guards.

Although Lu Bu's martial arts are outstanding, they are not visible in the world, so Han Kui and the others are not clear about Lu Bu's strength, and they only have the strength of twenty people in their hearts, and they are afraid that they will not be able to take a miscellaneous officer from the state?

But Zhao Yue knew in her heart that this Lu Bu was a person who could fight against the evil wolf! Lu Bu also said that he had killed two tigers alone, if it was true, let alone just twenty soldiers, even twenty ordinary generals would probably be helpless!

Without waiting for Zhao Yue to react, Liu Zheng, who had just entered the palace, also rushed up, although he was a Han army and loyal to the Han Dynasty, but the task at this time was to protect the hall, but he had to go up.

As a result, in the crowd of people who were fighting like lights, there was another red-robed general.

More than 20 people besieged one person, and you can imagine how heroic that scene was, but Lu Bu was able to do it without panicking, blocking and counterattacking everywhere, and he was not at a disadvantage at all.

"Ahh

A soldier's arm was only slightly swept by Lu Bu's sword, and there was an extra wound half an inch deep, blood flowed straight down, and he was no longer able to hold a weapon.

Lu Bu's sword blade, like a beam of bright moonlight in the night, crossed the place, bursts of blood red, after a few sword momentum, several soldiers were careless and seriously injured, but fortunately they were not injured.

Inside the main hall, several bronze lamps knocked down, and faint flames burned on the ground.

Lu Bu has not been injured so far, and he reacts quickly and acts decisively, almost after making sure that he dodges everyone's moves, before attacking.

Everyone at the banquet was stunned by this scene: "Oh my God, there are such brave people under Ding Tingshi!" ”

Cao Cao was also shocked to watch, he had two brothers with the surname Xiahou, although his martial arts were outstanding, but according to what Cao Cao saw, he was afraid that the two of them would not be able to defeat Lu Bu......

After about 20 rounds of fighting, Liu Zheng and Han Kui finally caught a flaw in Lu Bu and stabbed it with their swords together.

Lu Bu couldn't dodge, at this time his left hand was tightly grasping the hilt of the sword in the hand of a person, who was holding the sword with both hands and competing with Lu Bu, but Lu Bu was sure that he could take the man's weapon within three seconds.

As for Lu Bu's right hand, he held the sword to block the attack of Zhang Duan and the other person, and it was difficult to defend for a while.

I can't let go of my hands in a short time, this is a big flaw!

"Lu Bu, go die!" Han Kui shouted frantically, such a brave person, he should take this opportunity to get rid of him with the strength of everyone, if he is allowed to live for a few more years and accumulate some experience in fighting and heads-up, I am afraid it will be even more terrifying.

Lu Bu couldn't pull out of his hands, so he could only grit his teeth, quickly get up his legs, and kick off Zhong Hankui's wrist with his right leg.

Han Kui's wrist flicked, and the sword fell to the ground. Then, Lu Bu quickly dropped his legs, and wanted to get up his left leg again to kick the sword in Liu Zheng's hand, but it was too late.

Liu Zheng seized the opportunity and slashed at Lu Bu's calf with the sword in his hand, but he hit the outside of the boot of Feiyun Boots, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't split through, hurting Lu Bu by half a minute.

Feiyun boots are comfortable to wear and can also be used as combat boots, not because of how amazing its thick surface material is, but because there is a solid copper mesh in the middle of the boots, and the net mouth is very small, almost none, it is simply a hard and thin copper skin inside, and ordinary swords naturally cannot penetrate it.

What's more, as the marquis of the Han army, Liu Zheng's weapons were worn out old swords, which had long been dulled.

Dong Zhuo, who saw this scene, really had ten thousand regrets in his heart, and he glared angrily at Li Ru beside him, Li Ru knew what this meant, because the idea of persuading Dong Zhuo to give the Han army's tattered clothes and weapons was exactly what Jia Xu offered him, and he relayed it to Dong Zhuo. Thinking of this, Li Ru lowered his head knowing guilty.

Lu Bu in the audience took the opportunity to snatch the sword from his left hand and stabbed Liu Zheng with a sword, Liu Zheng suddenly turned sideways, but he was still stabbed in the shoulder and let out a cry of pain.

"A bunch of idiots, fight me!" Lu Bu said proudly, the corners of his mouth raised, threw away the sword in his right hand, Zhang Duan and the other person's strength were all on the sword, just as they wanted Lu Bu to contend with each other, Lu Bu's move undoubtedly made the two of them lose their center of gravity.

"Woo!" An exclamation.

Lu Bu stretched out his big hand, grabbed Zhang Duan's clothes and held him in front of him, flipped the back of his hand, and grabbed Zhang Duan's throat.

Just when Lu Bu was about to use his strength and start killing......

Seeing that the military marquis was injured and the eldest brother was captured, Zhao Yue finally had no choice but to stand at the gate of the hall.

"Stop!" Zhao Yue trembled and held the worn-out spear with both hands, and shouted at Lu Bu with the tip of the spear.
