Prime Minister's Mansion, Study. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

A man with a tall and burly figure, a strong physique like an ox, a rough face, a beard under his chin, and a domineering look in his eyes, sat upright.

This person is Prime Minister Dong Zhuo.

He sat upright, and next to him stood an elegant-looking middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man has a handsome face, long narrow eyes, and thin lips. When he squinted his eyes, he gave people the feeling of being cold as a snake, as if he was a poisonous snake hidden in a hole.

This person's name is Li Ru, Dong Zhuo's confidant and strategist.

Dong Zhuo opened his mouth and took a sip of wine, and asked casually: "Wen You, I heard that Liu Xuan was imprisoned, and this matter was handled by Li Dao, how is it handled now?" ”

Li Ru shook his head and said, "It's a mess!" ”

"Hmm!"

Dong Zhuo squinted his eyes, and there was a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

Messed up?

Li Dao, this waste!

Li Ru's expression was calm, and he continued: "Li Dao instructed Jiao Ren of Chang'an County to slander Liu Xuan for murder and put Liu Xuan in prison. This in itself is slanderous and untenable. Moreover, when Li Wei went to interrogate Liu Xuan, his original intention was to make Liu Xuan confess his guilt and suppress Liu Xuan. But in the end, Li Dao was taken down by Liu Xuan, and Jiao Ren was also so frightened by Liu Xuan that he didn't dare to move. ”

"Rubbish!"

Dong Zhuo's eyes narrowed and he snorted.

"Report!"

Suddenly, an attendant quickly ran in. After he saluted Dong Zhuo, he then stood beside Li Ru and whispered a few words.

In an instant, Li Ru's complexion changed suddenly.

"Let's go down!"

Li Ru waved his hand and asked the attendant to retreat.

Dong Zhuo asked, "Wenyou, what happened?" ”

Li Ru replied: "Back to the prime minister, Situ Wang Yun and Zuo Zhonglang will go to Chang'an County together with Cai Yong, Taiwei Ma Riyan, Taifu Qi, Shangshu Lingshi Sun Rui, Emperor Fu Song and others in the imperial history. This matter has made a big fuss. ”

Dong Zhuo's eyes rose with anger.

With so many officials going to the county government together, the situation has gotten out of control.

Dong Zhuo asked, "Son-in-law, what do you think of this matter?" How did it get to this point? ”

Li Ru thought for a while and replied: "Back to Prime Minister, there are so many court officials, any one of them has considerable influence in the court. Now that they have all gone to Chang'an County, Jiao Ren will definitely not be able to resist. ”

"The most important thing is that they went together, obviously with a long plan."

"According to the information heard by Tan, Kong Rong is also among them."

"Obviously, this is what Kong Rong operates. He found the officials of the imperial court and went to exert pressure together. ”

Li Ru's eyes were solemn, and he said: "With so many people going, Jiao Ren doesn't dare to move, Liu Xuan will definitely be taken out." It's just that Li Dao is still in Liu Xuan's hands, and they won't give up. In the next step, they will definitely come to the Prime Minister's Mansion and ask the Prime Minister to administer justice. ”

Dong Zhuo said in a deep voice: "I mean, I still have to wipe Li Dao's ass with his true appearance?" ”

Li Ru said: "These people are united, so they naturally want to force the prime minister to punish Li Dao. Li Dao is the prime minister's favorite general, and Li Dao has a problem, which indicates that it may have been instructed by the prime minister. The prime minister finally punished Li Dao, which was tantamount to a slap in the face. ”

"Bastard!"

Dong Zhuo was furious and said murderously: "It seems that they don't think the knife is sharp enough." ”

encountered something, Dong Zhuo wanted to kill it.

If he kills him cleanly, no one will dare to go against him.

Li Ru was taken aback, and hurriedly persuaded him: "The prime minister is slow, and now there are people from all walks of life who come to celebrate the birthday of the Son of Heaven." At this critical moment, it is not appropriate for the prime minister to go on a killing spree. ”

Dong Zhuo suppressed his anger and asked, "What do you say?" ”

Li Ru thought for a while and replied: "The root of this matter is still on Jiao Ren, and I think that I can only abandon the pawn to protect the commander, abandon Jiao Ren, and protect Li Dao." The matter is so big that there must be an explanation to calm it down. ”

Dong Zhuo understood what Li Ru meant, and asked, "Is there no other way?" ”

Obviously, Dong Zhuo is unwilling to suffer.

Li Ru fell silent and thought carefully about how to solve the matter.

After thinking about it, I didn't think of the best of both worlds. After all, at the beginning of this matter, Li Dao did too poorly, revealing too many flaws and handles. If Li Wei had designed it from the beginning, so that Liu Xuan really killed people, instead of slandering Liu Xuan, things would have been simple.

The current situation is difficult to reverse.

Although Li Ru has the wisdom of the sky, it is difficult to turn the situation around in the face of his pig-like teammates.

Li Ru shook his head and said, "Prime Minister, this thing can only be done like this." It's simply impossible to solve the problem in other ways. can only give up Jiao Ren and hug his fists. ”

Dong Zhuo's face became embarrassed, and he said impatiently: "You look at it." ”

"No!"

Li Ru gave up his hand, then turned around and withdrew.

……

The county government, Kong Rong, Wang Yun and other officials of the imperial court all gathered here and blocked the gate.

A group of people, with a good bearing.

Just the momentum of standing at the door made the officials of the county government dare not come out. Jiao Ren and the county Cheng hurriedly came out, saw a group of officials, and hurriedly saluted.

Everyone here is something he can't afford to mess with, he can only be a good grandson.

Wang Yun, as the leader, took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "Jiao Ren, where is Liu Xuan?" ”

Jiao Ren replied, "In the cell." ”

"Bastard!"

Wang Yun scolded and said, "As the commander of Chang'an County, you slandered the prince of Beihai and the royal family. In this matter, the old man will play the Son of Heaven and ask the Son of Heaven to decide. Now, lead the way ahead and go to the cell. ”

"Yes!"

Jiao Ren didn't dare to resist, and hurriedly walked ahead to lead the way.

The crowd soon came to the cell.

Outside the cell where Liu Xuan was, Wang Yun saw Liu Xuan and Li Dao, and he waved his hand and said, "Open the cell." The jailer opened the cell, Liu Xuan took Li Dao out, and under Kong Rong's introduction, Liu Xuan saluted the officials in the court one by one.

After getting to know each other, Wang Yun stared at Li Dao and said coldly: "General Li, you instructed Jiao Ren to slander Liu Xuan, and you must give an explanation for this matter." We will go to the Prime Minister's Mansion now and ask the Prime Minister to judge justice. ”

Brush!

Li Dao's face turned pale.

If he goes to the Prime Minister's Mansion, he will definitely disgrace Dong Zhuo, and he will definitely be punished at that time. However, the crowd was violent, and he had already been set up. Especially Liu Xuan is so cruel, if he doesn't leave, I'm afraid he will be tortured even more.

Li Dao said: "I'll go!" ”

Wang Yun nodded, waved his hand and led everyone out.

Liu Xuan glanced back at Shi A, bowed slightly, and then turned to leave. Liu Xuan has to deal with his own affairs now, and then he has time to deal with Shi A's affairs.

The group left the county office and went straight to the prime minister's mansion.

Halfway through, the people were shocked.

Officials who were familiar with Wang Yun, Yang Biao, Cai Yong and others were also shocked when they saw such a big battle.

When everyone came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, they sent someone forward to report. After the attendant went to pass the message, he soon came out and took Wang Yun, Cai Yong, Kong Rong and others to the hall.

came to the hall, but Dong Zhuo had not yet come.

The crowd stood in the hall waiting, and after a quarter of an hour, there was a sound of footsteps outside the hall.

"Hahaha, what's wrong today, the important ministers of the court and the central government are all coming to the Prime Minister's Mansion together."

Before anyone arrived, Dong Zhuo's voice had already entered the hall first. Immediately after, Dong Zhuo strode in. Behind Dong Zhuo, there was Li Ru, who was still smiling at the corners of his mouth and his eyes narrowed slightly.

As soon as Dong Zhuo entered the hall, everyone hurriedly bowed and saluted.
