Chapter Ninety-Two: Entering the Palace
Winter nights always come quickly, Luoyang, who has just eaten dinner, is almost completely dark, Lu Bu and the three of them rode horses together to the front of the palace, handed over the horses to the guards of the palace gate and entered the palace gate, and then were led by a eunuch in the long corridor in the palace.

The three of them followed behind the eunuch, Lu Bu and Gao Shun both came to the palace for the first time, looking at the scenery everywhere along the way, constantly commenting, and from time to time comparing the layout in front of them with the Forbidden City.
"Hasn't the eunuch been killed, how can there be?"
Not long after walking forward, Lu Bu suddenly and quietly tugged at Zhang Liao's clothes, and asked Zhang Liao in a voice that the eunuch leading the way in front of him could not hear.
Zhang Liao said with a bitter face: "Hey, don't mention it, we're all worried about this now." ”
When Gao Shun heard this, he immediately became interested: "What? ”
"When the Xiliang Army first entered the palace, Dong Zhuo saw that the original attendants in the palace had run away, and the only thing left was more than a dozen eunuchs and palace maids in the Queen Mother's palace, and the two emperors still couldn't spare manpower to take care of them, let alone the huge entire palace, so he ordered to recruit the fugitive eunuchs and maids, and at the same time recruited a new batch around Luoyang, and lived in the original Yellow Gate, and after the training of the old people in the original palace, he can now barely maintain the framework of the entire palace."
"Isn't that nice?" Lu Bu grabbed the girdle with both hands and said nonchalantly.
"What a thing!" Zhang Liao had a complaining expression, and once again deliberately lowered his voice so that Lu Bu and Gao Shun could hear it, "Do you know how many of those palace maids and eunuchs who were just recruited could be the eyeliner sent in by Yuan Kui?" Now the entire palace may be as transparent to Yuan Kui, but we don't know which ones are his eyeliner yet, the palace has recruited too many people at one time, and the sources are so miscellaneous that there is no way to find out. ”
Lu Bu looked at Zhang Liao in surprise: "It seems that you are really serious when you say this, how could Dong Zhuo make such a big mistake, isn't that Li Ru or something very smart?" ”
Zhang Liao sighed: "There is actually no way to do such a thing, no matter how smart a person is, there is a limit, you don't know what kind of mess we took over when we first entered Luoyang, all the structures of the entire city are paralyzed, there is a shortage of internal affairs talents in the Xiliang army, and many times the generals in the army have to go up to arrange the reconstruction of the market, not to mention that they are busy suppressing the original defenders in the city and communicating with the officials in the court, and there is no one in the Xiliang army. All these things have to be pressed on Li Ru alone, how can there be extra time to intrigue with Yuan Kui? ”
Gao Shun nodded and agreed: "It makes sense, you were so busy at the beginning, and Baimi also had a mistake, it is normal for Yuan Kui to catch any gaps, even if it is not a matter of recruiting palace maids and eunuchs, there will be other mistakes, which is understandable." ”
Zhang Liao spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders to express helplessness, and the three of them continued to follow the leader on the road to the palace.
After the Chengwu Gate, if the three of them had a blade, they would be handed over to the door guard here, and then through the Qingxuan Gate, they reported the reason for entering the palace to the Yellow Gate on duty, so that after several complicated etiquette processes, everyone finally came to the Golden Horse Hall that the Han Shao Emperor Liu Bian assigned to Dong Zhuo to deal with official business.
This Golden Horse Palace, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty got the palace of Dawan Mingju, the Golden Horse Palace is divided into Golden Horse Gate, which is the official office dedicated to the imperial court to collect talents, the original site is in Chang'an City, but because the Golden Horse Gate has been out of Dongfang Shuo, so even with the Golden Horse Gate is also famous, when Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty built the palace in Luoyang, he deliberately also set up a Golden Horse Hall in the North Palace, which is intended to show the intention of the Han family to recruit talents, so it has been a gathering place for many talents throughout the ages, and it is said that it is not strictly counted as the construction of the palace, Moreover, since Emperor Ling, the Han family no longer attaches importance to talents, and this Golden Horse Hall has been abandoned for a long time, so it is also a coincidence to give it to Dong Zhuo as a public use.
Came to the Golden Horse Palace, the atmosphere is obviously not as restrained and dull as on the road just now, the noisy scene makes people feel as if they are in the vegetable market, the people in front of the palace come and go from time to time, there are fast horses galloping, all of them are busy with official business.
Zhang Liao led Lu Bu Gaoshun, and walked straight into the palace without calling anyone, walking into the depths of the palace with a familiar car, and greeting a few acquaintances from time to time on the way.
"Now the Golden Horse Hall has been changed into a affairs center, Li Ru has summoned almost all the people in the army who have read books, and has also urgently transferred many master books from Liangzhou, which is busy for the operation of Luoyang City, now why do you know that I said earlier that Yuan Kui's infiltration is a matter of no way, there is really no energy." Zhang Liao turned around and explained to Lu Bu and Gao Shun as he walked.
Lu Bu looked at Zhang Liao suspiciously: "Is it so difficult to manage a city?" After speaking, he pointed to himself: "I am also a master bookkeeper, I haven't seen so many things in the army, and I didn't see how busy those people who were engaged in political affairs when I was in Jinyang City before." ”
"Cut, how big of a deal are you doing? How big is an army? Jinyang? How old is Jinyang? Look at what you haven't seen in the world, this is Luoyang! Luoyang, do you know? The first metropolis! This is ancient Shanghai. Zhang Liao turned around and looked at Lu Bu angrily.
Lu Bu was speechless by Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun on the side had new doubts: "Where did all the officials who managed Luoyang go before?" Wouldn't it be much more familiar to them, and they wouldn't have to be so busy. ”
"No way." Zhang Liao shook his head, "Those who left can't come back, those who haven't left, please don't move, and those who came back on their own initiative are worried that Yuan Kui's people don't dare to use it." Alas, it's hard! ”
"These are troublesome to engage in internal affairs or something!" Lu Bu said indignantly, "When I played the Three Kingdoms, I was annoyed with internal affairs, and it was both money and food, and I was bored to death, but I still had a good time fighting." ”
Zhang Liao, who told Lu Bu and Gao Shun such a worrying matter, also became a little haggard: "I really didn't think these things were so troublesome before, but I didn't understand until now that it is really not easy to engage in internal affairs, it seems that those internal affairs talents such as Xiao He and Xun Yu are really no worse than Zhang Liang and Guo Jia!" ”
As they spoke, the three of them had already arrived in front of a large hall, which was much quieter than the noise of the outer hall, and some documents were being passed in and out.
"This is Dong Zhuo's office and meeting hall, and he and Li Ru have almost always stayed in this hall to deal with Luoyang's affairs since they entered Luoyang." Zhang Liao said to Lu Bu Gaoshun.
Gao Shun said in surprise: "Then he can't be crazy?" ”
"Probably about the same." Zhang Liao touched his chin a little playfully, "Do you think Dong Zhuo's temperament, let him engage in these miscellaneous government affairs without killing him uncomfortable?" ”
Lu Bu laughed hesitantly: "Dong Zhuo is definitely going to scold Yuan Kui to death in his heart now, making a mess of Luoyang and leaving this mess to him." ”
"Who's to say it isn't?" Zhang Liao said, "Okay, let's go in." ”
Lu Bu Gaoshun nodded: "Okay, just look at what Dong Zhuo looks like!" ”
