(48) Foolish and loyal Wu Kuang found the wrong master, and the ruthless Li Ru conspiracy was successful

In front of the south gate of Luoyang, the convoy of the cavalry general He Miao was intercepted by the Yulinwei soldiers under Wu Kuang's subordinates who were guarding the gate. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Stop, who's in the car." The captain guarding the gate stepped forward with a spear and cautiously looked at the convoy in front of him, "It's curfew now, you are so bold that you dare to trespass on the city gate, get out of here." The attendants looked at each other a few times, and hurriedly stepped down to take out a certain amount of silver from their sleeves and stuffed it into the hands of the commander, but it was a pity that the officers guarding the door were all cultivated by Wu Kuang, and those wine bags and rice bags in the past were not the same as those in the past. I saw the captain wave his hand and throw the silver on the servant's face, pointed at him and said loudly: "Bribe the officer who guards the city, and punish him for a crime according to the law of the Han Dynasty." As soon as he finished speaking, several tall guards stepped forward, one left and one right, ready to hold the servant.

"Wait!" Just as the two were about to take down the servant, the door of the carriage not far away suddenly opened. Everyone was surprised, only to see He Miao slowly come to the Wu Commander with a gloomy face and follow a servant, and glared at him with murderous eyes for a long time, only to make the Wu Commander tremble all over his body, and cold sweat flowed. "Smack!" He Miao didn't say anything, raised his hand and slapped the captain in the face, and immediately imprinted a clear slap print, and the entourage around him immediately stepped forward and pointed at the captain and said: "You, you, the general went to inspect the armies outside the city today, and he came back late because some trivial matters were delayed, how could you intercept the general's convoy?" As he spoke, he gave Captain Wu a look.

I don't know why, the entourage in front of him made the captain feel that something was wrong from the beginning of his mouth, which was just unspeakable, and the captain did not answer in time under doubt, but frowned and thought carefully. Seeing this, He Miao couldn't help but be furious, stretched out his hand and opened the bow left and right, "Papa" four slaps, and the corners of the Wu Chang's mouth cracked, and he barely stood up with the support of the guards around him, maybe He Miao was too lazy to talk nonsense, and turned his head and got into the car after beating people, and the hundreds of guards guarding the door were frightened by this big mouth, and they didn't dare to come forward to check again, and they all trembled and watched the convoy enter the city in place.

"General, how are you, General?" The guards helped the captain to the guard, saw that his eyes were straight, and he seemed to be a little delirious, and hurriedly asked, "Do you want your subordinates to call a military doctor?" At this time, Wu Kuang, who had just come from the barracks to inspect the city defense, walked into the guard, and had already heard his subordinates say what He Miaoyi had just instructed him to do, and in addition to being angry, Wu Kuang hurriedly walked into the guard and asked, "Are you okay?" When everyone saw Wu Kuang coming, they didn't dare to be careless and hurriedly got up and saluted. In their hearts, Wu Kuang's status is much higher than He Miao's, after all, Wu Kuang was pulled up by He Jin, although his ability and martial arts are not top-notch, but at least the Yulin Guards admire him in their hearts and trust him, and He Miao is just a wine bag and rice bag that relies on power to climb up step by step in the eyes of the Yulin Guards.

The Wu Chang made a big salute to Wu Kuang and said, "General Hui, the last general is fine, General, have you ever seen a man without eyebrows?" As soon as these words came out, Wu Kuang couldn't help but feel confused, and hurriedly asked, "What don't you have eyebrows?" Do you see a man with no eyebrows? The captain of the army clasped his fists and replied: "Report to the general, when the last general led the team to negotiate with the general of the chariot cavalry, the last general saw that there was an entourage beside the general of the chariot cavalry who had no eyebrows, and the posture of walking and the tone of speech were also very strange. Wu Kuang's originally chaotic thoughts were awakened by this last sentence, only to see Wu Kuang slap his thigh and stand up and shout: "I see, this person is a caster who has not been planted, it turns out that this He Miao has long been in collusion with Zhang Rang's party, I said how the general did not see any trace of He Miao when he ordered the generals of all departments to gather in the general's mansion to discuss the meeting, and now it seems that most of the time he secretly notified the ten permanent servants to cause the general to die, and the queen mother's edict was also persecuted by this thief." ”

Since He Miao took charge of Luoyang Yulinwei, he has treated the soldiers poorly, and tens of thousands of Yulin Guards have long been dissatisfied, and now he is listening to Wu Kuang's analysis, and suddenly said to Wu Kuang excitedly: "How can this be true, as a brother of the same clan, he actually colluded with the eunuch to force his sister to kill his brother, general, what do you say, the brothers listen to you!" At this time, although Wu Kuang was impulsive, he did not completely lose his mind, he knew very well that once he killed He Miao, he would completely turn his face with the imperial court, and he must find a bigger backer to rely on, at present, Pingdong General Lu Bu is in full swing, but it is a pity that he is a concubine of the dynasty, and he killed the last brother of the Empress Dowager He, which will definitely make the Empress Dowager He angry, if he goes to Lu Bu, it is tantamount to asking for his own death. But looking at the whole world, who can match Lu Bu?

"Report to the general, Xu Rong, the general of the Xiliang Army, sent 3,000 war horses to my Yulinwei army." Just when Wu Kuang was thinking hard about who in the world could match Lu Bu, the soldiers outside the door suddenly came to report. Hearing the word Xiliang, Wu Kuang suddenly came to his senses: Yes, Xiliang Dong Zhuo, he has 150,000 troops, and his subordinates Hua Xiong, Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew, Xu Rong, Niu Fu and others are also rare fierce generals, and the Xiliang cavalry is no less brave than Lu Bu's Bingzhou Iron Cavalry. At this time, Wu Kuang remembered what He Jin had inadvertently said to him before his death: "Today, General Fenwei Lu Bu is in the limelight, and there are very few people who can match him, and Dong Zhuo of Xiliang is the only one. In case His Majesty dies, then the direction of the general trend of the world is between the thoughts of these two people. "Obviously, He Jin wants to rely on Dong Zhuo's strength to contain Lu Bu, so that these two can fight each other and profit from it. At the moment, if you want to kill He Miao, you must get Dong Zhuo's support. Thinking of this, Wu Kuang hurriedly shouted: "Please, no, I will go in person, give the order to prepare a banquet, and entertain General Xu Rong well." ”

"General Wu is polite, how dare I, a small feudal general, work for General Wu!" Xu Rong was introduced into the guard, the two of them sat down separately, and after three rounds of wine and five flavors, Xu Rong couldn't help but be polite, "The general is in danger of the capital, this wine, it should be Xu Rong to pay tribute to the general!" Seeing Xu Rong's kind attitude, Wu Kuang hurriedly got up and said: "The general praises falsely, Wu Kuang is ashamed, Wu Kuang is just a small Zhijinwu, if you want to say that you are in danger of the capital, then you have to rely on our chariot general He Miao!" Hearing He Miao's name, Xu Rong, who had already been advised by Li Ru, suddenly changed his face, only to see him drop his wine glass and slam the table, hugging Wu Kuang and saying: "He Miao, what kind of thing is he, he can have today without a general?" In terms of merit and qualifications, what is he better than General Wu? ”

"General, the general is cautious!" Although Wu Kuang's heart was very happy, he still pretended to persuade. Xu Rong raised his wine glass and drank it all, showing a simple drunken state, only to see him swaying and standing up and putting his arm on Wu Kuang's shoulder and said: "General Wu, don't be afraid, you don't have to be afraid of anything with our General Dong to support you, to be honest, our General Dong has long suspected that He Miao has colluded with the Ten Standing Servants to plot against the general, but unfortunately there is no evidence, and it is difficult to avenge the general!" Hearing this, Wu Kuang cautiously tentatively said: "What General Xu means is that General Dong intends to avenge the general. Xu Rong drank another glass of wine before he spoke: "That's natural, firstly, General Dong and the general are both relatives, General Dong is the nephew of the Empress Dowager Dong of the former dynasty, and secondly, the general trusts and favors General Dong, no, even his own waist card has been given to the general!" Saying that, Xu Rong fell to the ground with tears in his eyes and cried: "General, you died so miserably, don't worry, if I let Xu Rong know who dares to murder you behind my back, I will definitely skin and tear him apart, and cut him with a thousand knives?" ”

Wu Kuang has long known that He Jin has a waist card that can pass through all the passes in the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, but this waist card disappeared after He Jin's death, Wu Kuang always thought that it was stolen by the Ten Standing Servants and a party, and now he knows that it was originally given to Dong Zhuo by He Jin! At this time, Wu Kuang completely regarded this waist card as He Jin's token, and he decided that he would personally visit Dong Zhuo's camp tomorrow, as long as he saw this waist card, he would take Yu Linwei's brothers to serve Dong Zhuo and kill He Miao with his strength.

In the early morning of the next day, Dong Zhuo suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and walked into the camp where He Miao stayed last night, and the scene in front of him when he entered the camp tent made Dong Zhuo's blood gush out: I saw He Miao sleeping in the middle of five naked women, holding a woman's Yingying jade leg with his left hand, and his head resting on a woman's bare waist and abdomen, Dong Zhuo took a deep breath to calm down his emotions and coughed dryly: "General, it's dawn, it's time for you to have breakfast." ”

Under Dong Zhuo's repeated urging, He Miao opened his eyes slowly, and said to Dong Zhuo dissatisfied: "General Dong, what time is it now?" Dong Zhuo clenched his fists and replied: "General Huiyu, there is still an hour before the court." He Miao looked at the five women who hadn't opened their eyes yet, licked her tongue unsatisfied, and then turned around and wanted to stand up, but she didn't expect her legs and feet to be weak and fall in front of Dong Zhuo all of a sudden. Seeing this, Dong Zhuo stepped forward to help He Miao up, and laughed loudly: "Oh, General He, didn't you lose your soul last night and become a hollow radish today?" You have to be careful, if you hollow out your body and be known by your sister-in-law, I, Dong Zhuoke, will be to blame! Hahaha! ”

He Miao scratched his head embarrassedly, and blushed and defended: "No, no, General Dong smiled, but his legs and feet were a little numb, just rest for a while." Speaking of this, He Miao couldn't help but think of the scene of the phoenix with five women last night. Seeing that a lewd expression appeared on He Miao's face again, Dong Zhuo secretly scolded that he was really a womanizer, and hurriedly laughed: "If the general likes the hot body of this Qianghu woman, the last general will send these women to the general, okay?" "Oh?" As soon as these words came out, He Miao couldn't help but be overjoyed, and he didn't refuse, and immediately thanked: "So, then thank you General Dong." It's just that General Dong gave gold and silver first and then beautiful women, so how can General Ben thank you! Knowing that He Miao was playing officialdom, Dong Zhuo, who was powerless, had no choice but to respond with a smile: "As long as the general takes care of his body, don't be this hollow radish anymore, this big gift is okay in front of the last general, but don't do this big gift in front of his sister-in-law!" At that moment, He Miao laughed loudly, and after waking up several women and making them dress, the team said goodbye to Dong Zhuo and returned to Luoyang.

"Father-in-law, everything is going well, Xu Rong has already brought Wu Kuang back to the camp." Dong Zhuo was heartache for the five Qianghu beauties, and behind him, Li Ru stroked his long beard and walked up: "You just need to play one more scene, no accident, tonight we can take Yu Linwei and enter Luoyang City." When Dong Zhuo heard this, his dissatisfaction with losing the beauty suddenly disappeared, and he turned around and said happily to the example: "Is this true? ”

After personally inviting Wu Kuang into the camp, Dong Zhuo raised his wine glass and said to Wu Kuang: "Come, General Wu, I, Dong Zhuo, will give you a glass!" Wu Kuang was flattered and said: "How dare you, General Dong, as a feudal official, should be the last general, General Jing!" Dong Zhuo waved his hand solemnly: "This is wrong, I not only respect General Wu, but also General He Jin, the general is as kind to me as a mountain!" "This is the script that Li Ru arranged for Dong Zhuo in advance, three sentences are not separated from He Jin, as long as He Jin is used to arouse Wu Kuang's anger, he is bound to have a fire with He Miao at all costs, these two families are quite bound to be injured, and then we can reap the benefits of the fisherman. Obviously, this strategy worked, and when everyone lamented He Jin's bad fate, Wu Kuang drank a few glasses in a row, and said to Dong Zhuo with the strength of the wine: "General Dong, I heard that the general gave you a waist card, I don't know if you can borrow the last general to watch." "At this time, after all, on other people's territory, such a straightforward speech will hurt the harmony, but the anxious Wu Kuang can't take care of it so much. Unexpectedly, Dong Zhuo did not refuse, and treated Wu Kuang, He Jin's former henchman, Dong Zhuo was obviously very enthusiastic: "I have been carrying this waist card with me after the death of the general, one is that this thing is extremely important Dong Zhuo does not dare to slack off, and the other is also to remember the general's past kindness." Alas, O General! As he spoke, Dong Zhuo took out the token from his waist and handed it to Wu Kuang with both hands.

Wu Kuang took the token gratefully, and carefully looked at it: the totem of the Crouching Tiger, the font of the small seal, and the official seal of He Jin, after looking at it, Wu Kuang couldn't help but nod and said: "Okay, it is really a token of the general." Li Ru on the side saw that Wu Kuang was so excited, and took the opportunity to fan the flames and said: "Since the death of the general, General Dong has never left his body, and he always wants to avenge the general!" Dong Zhuo pretended to be indignant and said: "It's hateful that the Ten Standing Servants are so hateful, if I arrive one step earlier, I will definitely break them into pieces!" When Wu Kuang heard this, he immediately knelt down in front of Dong Zhuo and said with tears in his eyes: "General Dong, the general died unjustly, and please ask the general to avenge the general!" "Oh?" Dong Zhuo pretended to be surprised and said, "Haven't the ten permanent servants already been ambushed?" Wu Kuang hated and said: "That's not the case, there is one person who murdered the general in addition to the ten permanent servants, and there is He Miao, the general of the chariot and cavalry, and the last general has conclusive evidence in his hands, and he also asks the general to assist the last general in stabbing this thief to avenge the general." As he spoke, Wu Kuang recounted what happened last night.

After Li Ru carefully analyzed what Wu Kuang said, he couldn't help but look embarrassed: "General Wu, your evidence is too weak, if you really want to confront the court, you may not be able to take advantage!" Wu Kuang hugged his fists and said: "Sir, Wu Kuang never thought of confronting him in court at all. "General Mo doesn't want to?" Li Ru was surprised, "No, no?" Then He Miao is the elder brother of the current Queen Mother, which is equivalent to the cousin of Pingdong General Lu Bu, if you kill him, how can Lu Bu give up? Wu Kuang said sharply: "Why not? Luoyang Yulin Wei is all in my hands, as long as I raise my arms and shout, I can uncover the rod and kill this thief, General Dong has an army of 100,000, as long as the general orders the army to enter Beijing, you and I jointly control the imperial capital, with the steep pass of Si Li, the alliance of the princes of the world may not be our opponent! Why should we care about a little Lu Buna? ”

After pondering for a long time, seeing that Dong Zhuo did not answer, Wu Kuang couldn't help but be disappointed: "General, it is indeed very difficult at this time, Wu Kuang will not embarrass the general, if the general refuses, then please ask the general to immediately tie up the last general and send it to He Miao, and the last general will never resist." Saying that, Wu Kuang knelt down with his fists clenched, Dong Zhuo saw this, immediately stepped forward, and helped Wu Kuang up indignantly: "General, don't you underestimate me Dong Zhuo?" Don't say that the general is as kind to me as a mountain, even if an innocent person dies so tragically, I Dong Zhuo can't sit idly by, since the general is full of blood, I, Dong Zhuo, will sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman, okay, it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, I immediately ordered the Xiliang army to enter the king of Jingqin. Wu Kuang probably didn't know that Dong Zhuo's 100,000 army was less than three days' journey from Luoyang at this time.
