Ma Chao said with a smile: "It's okay to fight alone, you will have a chance in the future!" That's all for now! With that, the two escorted Zhao Yun and left.

Lu Bu gritted his teeth, and didn't dare to catch up after him. Ma Chao walked a few steps and suddenly moved in his heart, turned around and smiled: "For the sake of acquaintance, this is good news for you, but it can solve the problem of you standing in your old age but having no heirs in one fell swoop, I don't know if Brother Feng is interested!" ”

Lu Bu said angrily: "You thief is trying to harm me again, a certain family can't be fooled by you!" ”

Ma Chao smiled evilly: "Ben Hou has always had the ability to predict the future, otherwise how would An know that you took refuge in Dong Thief to kill your father?" Ignoring Lu Bu's extremely ugly face, he pointed to Luoyang City and said: "There is a man named Cao Ying in the court, and he has calculated that he has a concubine Bian who is related to Brother Fengxian. This woman not only looks beautiful and beautiful, but also has an excellent birth, has the appearance of a prosperous husband, such as the first brother can accept her as a concubine, within two years, to ensure that your Lu family will have a successor, believe it or not! Farewell."

"The thief is talking nonsense, and the next time we meet, we will take your head!" Lu Bu put down a cruel sentence, but he kept this matter firmly in his heart. There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest, he is now nearly thirty years old but only has one daughter, and he often has the heart of taking concubines and having children. How can he be very demanding, he doesn't want a beautiful woman who is not a national beauty, but he finally fell in love with a Du Xiuniang but robbed Ma Chao, and the two of them also formed a bond because of this matter.

However, it was said that the state army retreated all the way, and finally rushed back to the West Park camp at dusk, without losing a single soldier. Dong Zhuo's army, symbolizing the surname, chased out less than ten miles before Ming Jin withdrew his troops and returned with a great victory.

Back in the mansion, Dong Zhuo was in a happy mood, without the threat of Ma Chao, he could go all out to plan the abolition. That night, he told the conversation with Ma Chao during the day to his confidant Li Ru word for word. Li Ru scolded when he heard this: "What a thief, the lord has already fallen for Ma Chao, don't trust this person anymore!" ”

Dong Zhuo frowned and said, "Why did Wen You say this!" ”

Li Ru Zhengse said: "The four hundred years of the Han dynasty can be subverted overnight, Ma Chaoming does not interfere in the abolition of the lord, the purpose is to push the lord to the forefront and become the target of the public, and push the charge of usurping the Han to the lord alone." And he Ma Chao took the opportunity to grow stronger and enjoy his success, and his intentions can be described as extremely sinister! ”

Dong Zhuo said: "How can the old man not know the little bit of the thief's thoughts, but for now, he can only be appeased by good words and let him withdraw from the army for the time being." In addition, the old man promised his granddaughter to him as a wife and concubine, the purpose of which was to tie him firmly to the old man's chariot, and he didn't want to stay out of it! ”

Li Ruluo pondered for a moment and said: "The lord's move is a good move!" But this alone is not enough, Confucianism has a plan to make Ma Chao's thief's calculations fail and force him to the opposite side of the world's loyal people! ”

Dong Zhuoxi said: "Wen You's clever plan, come quickly!" ”

Li Ru said: "If today's rapid changes and a year is too long, when the Lord abolishes the legislature, he can pull Ma Chao into it, and make it clear to the world that Ma Chao also supports the abolition." In addition, the engagement of Ma Chao and Miss Dong was immediately announced to the world, and after a while, Miss Dong and Princess Wannian were sent to Yecheng to marry Ma Chao in the name of the Son of Heaven. If he accepts, he must stand on the same front as the lord, and then the great thing can be done! If not, we should take precautions as soon as possible, and announce his intention to usurp the Han Dynasty to the world, whether the world believes it or not, Ma Chao's reputation will plummet. ”

Dong Zhuo laughed and praised: "The virtuous son-in-law deserves to be the old man's wise man!" That's how this matter was done, the horse thief was just a little baby in his teens, and An Neng fought the old man! Haha"

said that Dong Zhuo had no worries, so he was busy with the abolition of the establishment. Previously, in order to speed up the pace of abolition, he had already begun to cultivate his minions, widely recruited his cronies, and used means such as co-opting, tempting, and squeezing out to attack and frame all forces and groups that were unfavorable to him.

First of all, he proclaimed himself a lieutenant and drove Cao Song, Cao Ying's father, back to his hometown, and then promoted Wang Yun to Situ, and transferred Yuzhou Mu Huang Qi to the imperial court in the name of the Son of Heaven.

In addition, he also vigorously promoted party members, such as Zhou Bismu, the secretary of the ministry, Wu Qiong, Zheng Gongye, the chief of the history, He Hao, and the Sikong Wu officer. Not only that, but also at the suggestion of Li Ru, Cai Yong, the great Confucian of the world, was recruited to serve in Beijing, Cai Yong immediately replied and refused to go out, Dong Zhuo thought about the relationship between Cai Yong and Ma Chao, and did not dare to force it.

The next time, Dong Zhuo hosted a banquet for the ministers in the Jiade Palace, and then discussed the abolition of the establishment. After entering the table, Dong Zhuo no longer talked nonsense, and said directly in the face of dozens of important ministers: "Everyone, the Son of Heaven is weak, not enough to serve the temple and guard the society, and the King of Hejian is smart and wise, shrewd and capable, and is more suitable for the Son of Heaven." After I discussed with the champion Hou, I want to follow the example of Yi Yin and Huo Guang, abolish the Son of Heaven as the king of Hongnong, and establish the king of the river association as the emperor. As soon as the words fell, Lu Bu led more than 100 armor soldiers to rush into the Jiade Palace, holding the hilt of the sword and staring at him!

The ministers booed, not only surprised that Dong Zhuo had abolished the establishment, but even more so that Ma Chao had agreed to the abolition of the establishment, and the two local warlords joined forces, did these ministers still have room for opposition? Everyone sighed, and some of them had secretly shed tears, lamenting the misfortune of the Han family, but in the face of Lu Bu's threat, no one dared to object.

Huangfu Song frowned and said: "Dong Gongyan Champion Hou also agreed to abolish the establishment, today it is said that the ministers will have a banquet, why don't you see the champion Hou come to discuss!" In addition, everyone present knew that the champion Hou fought outside the city yesterday, and he didn't know how to win or lose with Dong Gong? ”

Dong Zhuo said: "The old man and the champion Hou are out of Xiliang together, how can they face each other?" Yesterday, it was just a military exercise outside the city for the generals to learn martial arts. In addition, it is not a secret that the old man's granddaughter Dong Bai has already made a family affair with the champion Hou, and she is about to go to Jizhou with Princess Wannian to complete the marriage! ”

"What a thief!"

"Shameless thief!"

"The Han family is unfortunate, the old thief and the little thief are in charge! Where are you waiting for me?"

When the ministers heard it, they immediately believed most of them, can Dong Zhuoan talk nonsense about such a big thing? People with a little brains understand what it means for the two to marry, and they scolded on the spot.

Dong Zhuo was secretly proud in his heart, and shouted: "Quiet, wait for the dignified doctor, what kind of body is it to cry like this!" That's it! ”

"Wait!" Yuan Shao suddenly stood up and shouted: "Today, the imperial court has decided that Zhao'er and others will enter Beijing to assist the Son of Heaven and stabilize the common people, but you have repeatedly and vainly abolished the elder and established a concubine, isn't this behavior no different from deliberate rebellion?" ”

These words were impassioned, and all the ministers applauded, and at the same time secretly admired Yuan Shao's courage.

Dong Zhuo was secretly annoyed, but the influence of the Yuan family was too great, he had to scruple, and he held back his anger at the moment and said: "The affairs of the world are in me Dong Zhuo, I want to do it, who dares to disobey?" ”

Yuan Shao sneered: "The affairs of the world lie in the Son of Heaven and in the loyal ministers, and you are just a usurper!" I Yuan Shao doesn't obey, how are you going? ”

Dong Zhuo was furious, got up and pulled out the sword at his waist, and said hatefully: "Do you want to try the sharpness of the sword in the old man's hand?" ”

Yuan Shao also "choked! He pulled out the sword at his waist and shouted-for-tat: "My sword is not disadvantageous!" ”

The two confronted each other with swords, glaring angrily, and neither of them would back down. Lu Bu had already led the armor soldiers to surround Yuan Shao's group, and he could just wait for Dong Zhuo's order to dismantle his body.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Ru hurriedly stood up and whispered: "Lord, the matter has not yet been decided, you must not be killed, the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, there are many envoys, and this matter needs to be discussed in the long run!" ”

Yuan Kui, Yang Biao and others also advised Yuan Shao not to act rashly. Yuan Shao was impulsive at the beginning, without fear, but at this moment, when he saw the soldiers surrounded, he couldn't help but be secretly afraid, snorted coldly, turned his head and left.

Dong Zhuo had the intention of killing Yuan Shao, but he hesitated when he was persuaded by Li Ru, so he didn't give the order to stop him, and let Yuan Shao go quickly.

That night, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were afraid that Dong Zhuo would cause harm, so they led their soldiers and horses to escape from Luoyang City overnight. Yuan Shu teamed up with Lu Yi and others to lead nearly 2,000 Yulin troops under his command to flee to Nanyang, Jingzhou, to avoid trouble. Yuan Shao also brought his family with him, and cooperated with Xiyuan Lieutenant Chun Yuqiong, Zhao Rong, Feng Ji, Guo Tu and other former He Jinmen to lead two or three thousand people straight to Runan's hometown. He originally wanted to go to Bohai County, but he was afraid that Ma Chao and Dong Zhuo would join forces to harm him, so history also deviated from the original trajectory.

As for the later development of the two, he didn't mention it for the time being, but said that Dong Zhuo saw Yuan Shao go away with resentment, and he was quite impatient, and shouted: "September Shuo said, in the Deyang Palace, the abolition of the ceremony, the civil and military officials must be present, those who dare not come, beheaded!" Ignoring the reaction of the ministers, he threw away his sleeves.

However, it was said that Ma Chao was preparing to return home with the whole army in Xiyuan, and suddenly a person sent a secret letter, and it was Wei Zhongdao who told him what happened in the Jiade Hall in the form of a letter.

Ma Chao was annoyed after reading it, Dong Zhuo's move would make him miserable, and it didn't hurt to support the abolition of the establishment, and it would be clarified by announcing the secret edict of the first emperor to the world. But the matter of marrying Dong Zhuo is absolutely impossible, otherwise the saliva of people in the world can drown him. After pondering for a long time, Ma Chao couldn't come up with a brilliant countermeasure, but he couldn't turn his face with Dong Zhuo in front of him, so he could only act later when he saw the opportunity.

At the end of August, and the autumn harvest is approaching, it coincides with the smooth wind and rain this year, and the land of Hebei and Hebei is fruitful. Ma Chao was worried about Zhang Yan's attack on the family, so he returned to his heart like an arrow, and the special person transferred the trial out of Luoyang City to return with the army, leaving Fa Zheng and Pang De to continue to stay in Luoyang City to lurk, and at the same time told Fa Zheng how to contact Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang.

In the end, he ordered someone to send Empress Tang and Diao Chan to the West Garden, planning to bring them back to Jizhou first and then make plans, if Liu Wei can not die, he will return them to him. Diao Chan can't let it go, for this beauty who is unique in color and art, and has been passed down through the ages, Ma Chao has long coveted it, and the more important Diao Chan and the key person who killed Dong Zhuo, if Dong Zhuo dies if he is not called the emperor, how can the world be in chaos?

Three days later, nearly 10,000 troops were ready, and Ding Yuan, who had improved slightly, was also placed in the carriage. In order to prevent bumps on the road, Ma Chao also ordered someone to find something soft to cushion under him, and he checked it himself if he was not at ease.

But at first glance, Ma Chao was stunned, and his heart was ecstatic! (To be continued.) )
