51 Emperor Ling was greedy for money and broke the contract, and Lu Bu re-entered Luoyang.

However, he said that last time in the court of Luoyang, Emperor Ling of Han asked how to reward the meritorious officials of the Xiliang War. He Jin, one of Lu Bu's two backers, did not praise Lu Bu in any way, but just stood aside silently and watched the development of the situation. And Wang Yun, a Shilin official who was a sworn enemy of the eunuchs, stood up and said that Lu Bu should not be rewarded too much, otherwise there would be a bad impact. However, Zhang Rang, who was promised by Lu Bu to share the reward equally, criticized Wang Yun's opinion, and even said that Wang Yun intended to make Emperor Han Ling lose his trust in the world.

But Emperor Han Ling spoke at this time: "Father, I didn't say that I wouldn't reward that Lu Bu." I just want to listen to Wang Yun's opinion before rewarding him, after all, I can be an emperor who is a man of his word, how can I break my word? Okay, Wang Yun, you go ahead and talk about why I can't give Lu Bu a big reward? Don't forget the promise I made in the court. ”

Wang Yun saw that Emperor Han Ling was interested in his words, and he already had a little confidence in his heart. "The reason why the emperor said that he could not reward General Lu again was because the speed of General Lu's promotion was too amazing. General Lu is only in his early twenties now, but since he fought against the Xianbei thieves in Jiuyuan City a few years ago, he has been promoted to several ranks, and now he has been promoted to the rank of general of the Hun Zhonglang and has also been elected. The emperor's favor to him has made many soldiers who have been fighting in various places for many years indignant. Now if the emperor continues to promote Lu Bu's official position or add more rewards, then Weichen is worried that the generals in the army will feel that the emperor is acting unfairly, which will inevitably make them feel cold. ”

When Emperor Han Ling heard that Wang Yun vigorously objected to his promise to reward Lu Bu as promised, Emperor Han Ling was very happy in his heart, because Emperor Han Ling was very unhappy that he was going to take out a sum of money from the small treasury to give to others. But as the king of a country, it is not easy to go back on his word, but now that there are some ministers who oppose it, Emperor Ling of Han can clearly and honestly reduce the reward for Lu Bu. "What Wang Aiqing said is reasonable, the issue of Lu Bu's reward really has to be carefully considered. But Wang Aiqing have you thought about it, if I do this, won't those soldiers who are fighting against the traitors in Xiliang have complaints? ”

Wang Yun said lightly: "Why is this difficult? The emperor can reward Dong Zhuo, the other commander of the thief army this time, as the Taishou of Xiliang, so that those soldiers who suppress the rebellion will not have too many complaints, and they can also use Dong Zhuo to suppress the remnants of the rebel army in Xiliang. ”

"Okay, pass on my will to send Dong Zhuo, the commander of the current rebel army, to lead the military affairs of Xiliang for the history of Xiliang Thorn, and reward the marquis of Lu Buguan with 300 gold. Well, so be it. Emperor Ling of Han decided to leave the mess of Xiliang to Dong Zhuo to manage, and only gave Lu Bu a title of unauthorized title and three hundred gold as the Marquis of Guannei, but did not give Lu Bu a big reward as he had promised before

Dividing line

"Boom!" In Lu Bu's big tent, Zhang Fei slapped the desk in front of him into two sections with one palm, and shouted angrily: "Emperor Han Ling is incompetent!" It's okay not to give my brother a big reward if he doesn't follow the promise, but the dog emperor actually sent someone to seal Dong Zhuo, who is also the commander of the thief army, as the Xiliang Thorn History in front of the whole army! But he only gave my brother a fictitious title of the Marquis of Guan Nei and a few hundred gold! Isn't this slapping my eldest brother's face in front of the whole army? In my opinion, it is better to raise troops to attack Luoyang, and Emperor Han Ling set up my brother to be the emperor, but it is better than being the nest of Emperor Han Ling here! ”

Although Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and others on the side were silent, they looked at Lu Bu with longing eyes.

"Absolutely not, my lord, at this time, the qi of the Han court is not exhausted, how can we be the first bird to burn with the jade of the Han family? Yi Feng saw that the current mediocre Emperor Han Ling had been delayed in establishing the crown prince, and he himself was weak and sick because of his excessive love for wine, and it was rumored in Luoyang last year that he had been in a coma for a time. So as long as the lord can endure for another five years, no, as long as he can endure for another two or three years. When the time comes, as soon as the Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty dies, the country of the Han Dynasty will inevitably be in chaos because of the dispute between the heirs of the Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty in Luoyang City, and at that time, we can use the hands of Dong Zhuo to win the world step by step. Tian Feng on the side saw the attitude of the generals and hurriedly persuaded Lu Bu, and gave Xu Yu a look to Xu Yu beside him.

Xu You nodded after receiving Tian Feng's eyes, and after Tian Feng finished speaking, he stood up and said to Lu Bu: "Lord, I agree with Tian Yuanhao's words. At this stage, we don't have the strength to challenge the royal family of the Han Dynasty, so we can only listen to the arrangement of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and let it go. And I also suggested that the lord not only accept the imperial order this time, but also go to Luoyang to kowtow and thank you. ”

Lu Bu, who had been listening to the opinions of the audience with his eyes closed, opened his eyes violently and asked, "Ziyuan asked me to go to Luoyang to kowtow and thank you?" ”

"What! That mediocre Emperor Han Ling treated my brother like this, and you still let my brother go to Luoyang to kowtow and thank you? Didn't you get kicked in the head by a horse's hooves!! Zhang Fei opened a pair of leopard eyes and yelled at Xu You.

Lu Bu grimaced and scolded: "Yide! Don't be rude to gentlemen! Apologize to me! ”

Zhang Fei grabbed his messy hair and said embarrassedly: "That Mr. Xu, I, Zhang Fei is a rough man." If there is something offensive in your speech, please bear with me. ”

"Hehe, General Zhang is a lover with a surname, how can I blame General Zhang? This is to blame for not making it clear, in fact, I mean that the reason why we were treated like this by Emperor Han Ling this time was because of the misunderstanding of the lord by those scholars above the court. And what we have to do now is to enter Luoyang in the name of thanksgiving, and secretly go to visit some scholar officials, such as the prince Wang Yun, who was formerly the assassin of Yuzhou. The lord must personally convince those officials, otherwise there will be more things like this in the future. Xu You slowly analyzed.

Lu Bu thought for a moment and said categorically: "It seems that I am going to settle this Luoyang, Bo level, the post-war military affairs and the management of prisoners here will be handed over to you." The two gentlemen and I are going to Luoyang, so you don't have to wait for us, and when you finish dealing with the things here, you can go back to Wuyuan County first. ”

"Yes, big brother."

Lu Bu rode a fiery red rabbit horse, and Tian Feng Xu Yu led dozens of personal soldiers after more than ten days of hurrying finally came to Yanjing Luoyang, Lu Bu in the Manchu Dynasty civil and military expressions under the different expressions of the Han Ling Emperor.

"The minister protects the Hun Zhonglang and will visit Lu Bu to see the emperor." Lu Bu knelt three times and bowed nine times to Emperor Han Ling.

After all, Emperor Han Ling did those disgraceful things, and when he saw Lu Bu personally entering the court to see Emperor Han Ling, he said with some embarrassment: "Is there anything important for Aiqing to report when he came to Luoyang this time?" ”

Lu Bu calmly replied: "Your Majesty, Lu Bu is only here to thank the emperor for granting me the position of Marquis of Guannei." ”

"What?"

"How is that possible?"

Many courtiers all talked about what Lu Bu said, but none of them chose to believe Lu Bu's excuse, even Cao Ying, who had always had a good impression of Lu Bu.

"Silence!!" Zhang Rang, who was beside Emperor Han Ling, shouted screaming.
