Jizhou, outside Guangzong City, Lu Zhi Daying.

"Too much deception!" A precious porcelain bowl smashed on the ground, and the old man sitting in the handsome seat said angrily: "This Zuo Feng is really hateful, he actually asked the old man for a bribe!" ”

"Dashuai, you should be aggrieved!" A square-faced general said: "That Zuo Feng is an angel, I heard that he went to the champion Hou to announce the decree, not only Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun gave him bribes, but even the champion Hou also took the initiative to give a lot of money. Even Bocai's head was taken by Zuo Feng to ask for credit! ”

"Humph! Liu Zhang'er didn't know what to say, he was mixed up with the eunuch, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun had no backbone, and they actually bribed Zuo Feng, which is really shameful! The old man looked angry, but his generals were worried.

"Dashuai, if you refuse to give Zuo Feng a bribe, I'm afraid..."

"What are you afraid of!" The old man said angrily: "The old man is doing well, doing right, can he still be afraid of slander?" Your Majesty is the Lord of the Holy Wisdom, and he will not listen to rumors! I only hate that Zuo Feng, I hate that I can't kill him..."

The old man turned out to be Lu Zhi, the coach of Jizhou, who discussed countermeasures in the village, and didn't want Zuo Feng to eavesdrop behind the camp. Listening to Lu Zhi's words full of murderous intent, Zuo Feng sneered: "Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!" ”

Zuo Feng stayed in Lu Zhi's camp for only three days before returning to Beijing, and the person who escorted him was still Cao Ying. Originally, Cao Ying wanted to stay and help Lu Zhi, but who expected that because he sent Zuo Fenglai, Lu Zhi's whole camp gave him a look. In desperation, Cao Ying had no choice but to go back with Zuo Feng. As for where to make meritorious contributions, Cao Ying is going to take a look.

Zuo Feng was not a good person in the first place, if he didn't get any benefits from Liu Zhang, or if the benefits were not great, he would hate Lu Zhi too much. However, he was respected like an emperor by Liu Zhang, but he was looked down upon by Lu Zhi. As the saying goes: if you are not afraid of not knowing the goods, you are afraid of comparing the goods. When Lu Zhi and Liu Zhang compared, Zuo Feng was naturally grateful to Liu Zhang, and hated Lu Zhi so much!

As the saying goes: It is better to offend a gentleman than a villain. Zuo Feng is an authentic villain. When he returned to Jingshi, he immediately reported to Zhang Rang what had happened to him in Lu Zhi's camp. Zhang Rang is also a villain, he heard Zuo Feng say this, and deliberately found an opportunity to take Zuo Feng to meet Liu Hong.

Liu Hong was naturally very happy to see Zuo Feng, and the last time Zuo Feng went to Liu Zhang, he not only brought good news, but also brought a lot of loot and bribes. But this time, Liu Hong was destined to be disappointed. As soon as Zuo Feng saw the ceremony, he immediately cried: "Your Majesty is the master of the ministers!" ”

"What's going on?" Liu Hong frowned, if it weren't for the last time Zuo Feng brought back a lot of good things, maybe he would have been beaten this time.

Zuo Feng cried and said: "I was ordered to go to Lu Zhi to supervise the battle, but Lu Zhi was arrogant and rude, and even..."

"Or even what?" Zuo Fengshen announced the key to the complaint, deliberately said half a sentence and left half a sentence, Liu Hong was really fooled.

"Xiao Chen doesn't dare to say it!" Zuo Feng touched the ground with his head, wanting to capture him.

"Say!" Liu Hong snorted coldly: "I forgive you for your innocence!" ”

Zuo Feng said tremblingly: "The Yellow Turban Army that Lu Zhi fought in Jizhou was defeated and beheaded tens of thousands, and the thief first shrank into Guangzong City. The city of Guangzong is ruined, if Lu Zhi tries his best, he will be able to conquer it. But Lu Zhi actually raised his own dignity and missed a good opportunity in vain. I urged him to enter the army, and he said that I didn't understand the military eunuchs who misled the country, and said..."

"What else to say!" Liu Hong was already out of anger.

"And said..."Zuo Feng almost put his face on the ground in order to hide the smile on his face. However, his staccato voice seemed to be very frightened. I only heard Zuo Feng say: "Lu Zhi also said that His Majesty sent me to supervise the army, which is really stupid..."

"What!" Liu Hong's eyes were red and he roared: "Lu Zhi is such a big dog! Spread my will, Lu Zhi is good at tyrannical and misleading the country, and he will be executed on the spot! ”

"Your Majesty, no!" Yuan Kui heard that Zuo Feng had unsuccessfully asked for a bribe from Lu Zhi, and knew that he would definitely frame Lu Zhi, so Yuan Kui invited the general He Jin to enter the palace to intercede for Lu Zhi. Because he went to the army first, Yuan Kui was late, fortunately he was not late, if Liu Hong sent out the edict, Lu Zhike would be done!

Seeing that it was Yuan Kui again, the anger in Liu Hong's heart couldn't be contained, and he shouted loudly: "Then Lu Zhi has already deceived the king, and he can't do it!" Do you have to rebel against him before you allow me to send troops to kill him? ”

"Your Majesty! Lu Zhi is arrogant, it's just Zuo Feng's words, how can you listen to it and believe it? Yuan Kui smiled and said: "I heard that Zuo Feng went to the champion Hou to supervise the army, and as a result, he brought back a lot of native products, maybe Lord Lu is poor and has no native products to give to Lord Zuo, so Lord Zuo is resentful in his heart!" ”

"Uh..." Liu Hong was stunned, he understood what Yuan Kui meant, because most of the souvenirs that Zuo Feng brought back from Liu Zhang went into the emperor's pocket. Yuan Kui's words were just to say that Zuo Feng failed to ask for bribes, but falsely accused Lu Zhi. But Yuan Kui didn't know that Zuo Feng asked for a bribe, and it was Liu Hong who acquiesced! I saw Liu Hong say angrily: "Lord Yuan, do you know that you are falsely accused of sitting back?" ”

Yuan Kui smiled and said, "Just ask Your Majesty to call Lu Zhi into the palace to confront him!" ”

Liu Hong sneered: "Come on, pass on the order to take Lu Zhisuo into Beijing..."

"No! Your Majesty! "Since his sister became the queen, General He Jin has been working hard every day, and his current figure is two or three times that of before, so he naturally walks slower than Yuan Kui. As soon as he entered the main hall, he heard that Liu Hong was going to take Lu Zhisuo into Beijing, and he couldn't help but open his mouth to object.

"This can't be, that's not okay, what do you want me to do?" Liu Hong was already very angry, but now that he has been stopped twice, his anger is naturally not smooth.

He Jin gasped for a long time and said: "Your Majesty, it's not that the minister opposes your will, it's just that you want to lock up Lu Zhi, so what about the Jizhou Yellow Turban?" What about the tens of thousands of troops in Jizhou? Changing commanders on the spot is a taboo for soldiers! ”

Liu Hong snorted coldly: "According to what the general said, do you want to wait until you finish beating the Yellow Turban Thief and then take Lu Zhisuo?" ”

"This..."He Jin said in embarrassment: "So it's the best! ”

"If the yellow scarf hasn't been beaten yet, what if Lu Zhi is reversed?" Liu Hong sneered: "If this is the case, can the general be responsible?" ”

He Jin shrank his head, he naturally couldn't be responsible. Zhang Rang said with a smile: "Your Majesty, what the general said is extremely true!" However, we can find a general who leads troops all the year round and is good at fighting to replace Lu Zhi, presumably an experienced general should be able to overcome the problem of changing generals in battle! ”

Liu Hong sighed: "Father is the old man who is planning the country, but it's a pity that the champion Hou is dealing with the Wancheng Yellow Turban, otherwise with his ability, he will definitely be able to exterminate Zhang Jiao!" ”

Yuan Kui was a little blushing when he heard the three words of Champion Hou, and he really didn't understand why the Yellow Turban thief, who was like a wolf and a tiger in the eyes of others, was so vulnerable under Liu Zhang. He Jin thought for a while and said: "Champion Hou is naturally the best candidate, but the world can't rely on him alone. The minister sees that Hedong Taishou Dong Zhuo's skills are good, although he lost to the champion Hou in the last competition, he should be able to win the Yellow Turban Thief! ”

Liu Hong thought for a while and said, "Then let Dong Zhuo try!" I'm tired, go down! ”

"Yes!" Liu Hong had already given the order, and Yuan Kui, He Jin, and Zhang Rang were all difficult to refuse, but Zuo Feng's face was a little blue. You know, he framed Lu Zhi just to kill him with one blow. Now that Lu Zhi has returned to Beijing, even if he is locked into Beijing, when the two sides confront each other, he will be in big trouble.

Walking out of the main hall, Zuo Feng followed Zhang Rang to the side hall. Zuo Feng suddenly knelt down and said, "Master Zhang, you have to save me!" If Lu Zhi enters Beijing, I will be miserable! ”

"Afraid of what?" Zhang Rang said with a smile: "What you said, Lu Zhi can't say it at all, you say yours, he says his, in the end, the big deal is a tie, Your Majesty will play fifty boards each." When the time comes, Lu Zhi will be pushed to the end, and you will suffer a little bit of flesh and skin at most, with our family here, are you still afraid of suffering? Anyway, you are also doing things for Your Majesty, and Your Majesty will not look at you unlucky! ”

"Thank you Lord Zhang for your advice!" Zuo Feng looked happy, took out a treasure from his arms and said: "This is a gadget I bought on the road, and please ask Lord Zhang to smile!" ”

Zhang Rang knew at a glance that it was a valuable thing, and immediately took it into his arms. Although Zhang Rang collected money for the emperor, he himself was also corrupt, eunuchs, how could anyone not be greedy for money?

When He Jin returned to the house, he immediately asked Dong Zhuo to be invited. Back then, Dong Zhuo was frivolous and was beaten up by Liu Zhang, and his general Hua Xiong was also seriously injured, but now he is more restrained, and he also takes his resourceful son-in-law with him from time to time.

"See the General!" Seeing He Jin, Dong Zhuo immediately saluted. If it was two years ago, Dong Zhuo would never be so respectful, because He Jin was from a similar background to him, he was full of thought that he could be friends with He Jin, in fact, he did regard He Jin as a friend. But in the end, Dong Zhuo found that although He Jin was about the same background as him, he looked down on him at all.

"Zhong Ying is here!" He Jin invited Dong Zhuo to sit down and said with a smile: "Zhong Ying! Now that yellow scarves are rampant, I want to recommend you to go to Jizhou to clean up Zhangjiao, what do you think? ”

"Please also ask the general to cultivate!" Dong Zhuo's eyes lit up immediately when he heard this, he wanted to clean up the yellow scarf, but Hedong was too close to the Beijing division, he didn't dare to move, and he didn't even dare to recruit more troops, so as not to be suspicious of the imperial court.

He Jin smiled and took out a roll of yellow silk from his arms and said, "Look at it for yourself!" ”

Dong Zhuo opened it and saw that it was an edict that asked him to replace Lu Zhi as the commander of the Yellow Turban, and he couldn't help kneeling down and said: "The virtue of the general, the last general has nothing to repay, I just hope to stay here as the general to lead the horse and pedal, and make cattle and horses for the general in the next life, and knot the grass ring!" ”

Dong Zhuo showed his loyalty, and He Jin patted him on the shoulder with great satisfaction and said, "Zhong Ying! I've worked hard to get this edict for you, and you can't let me down! That Liu Zhang played very beautifully in Yingchuan, and now he went to Wancheng again. I heard that Guangzong City is dilapidated, you have to kill Zhang Jiao as soon as possible, don't lose my face! ”

Dong Zhuo said gratefully: "Don't worry, general, I will live up to your high expectations!" Even if that Guangzong City is as strong as Luoyang, I will capture it! ”

He Jin was very satisfied with Dong Zhuo's statement, so he solemnly put the edict in his hand. Dong Zhuo took the edict, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but unfortunately he knelt on the ground, and He Jin didn't see it.
