Chapter 161: The Lobbyist Clears Doubts to Father and Son
The next day, Dong Zhuo held a feast in Wenmingyuan, the secretary of the Manchu Dynasty, who dared not come to anyone who received Dong Zhuo's invitation? After everyone arrived, Dong Zhuo slowly appeared, and at the same time, the singing and dancing music in the garden rose. Under Dong Zhuo's oppression, everyone drank and feasted tremblingly. After a few rounds of drinking, Dong Zhuo suddenly ordered to stop drinking and having fun, only to see him stand up and say, "I have a word, please listen quietly!" ”
When everyone saw Dong Zhuo speak, they naturally put down their wine glasses and listened attentively. I saw Dong Zhuo smile and said: "The Son of Heaven is the lord of all peoples, and he can't serve the temple without prestige." Now His Majesty is cowardly, but if King Chen Liuwang is smart and studious, he can inherit the throne. I want to abolish the emperor and set up the king of Chen, why do you think so? ”
Cannot! Cannot! One of the people on the seat pushed the case straight out, stood in front of the feast and said, "Who are you who dare to say this?" The Son of Heaven is the eldest son of the first emperor, and he is not at fault, so why should he discuss the abolition of the throne! Do you want to be a usurper? ”
Seeing that the person who spoke was Ding Jianyang, Dong Zhuo didn't think it was wrong, he knew Ding Yuan's loyalty. So Dong Zhuo took out a holy decree from his arms and said, "Jianyang doesn't have to be angry!" I have the edict of the first emperor, and in the edict, it should have been succeeded by King Chen Liu. He Jin vainly changed the holy will, it is really a sin that deserves death! ”
"Show me!" Ding Yuan stretched out his hand, he didn't believe Dong Zhuo's nonsense, if Liu Hong had a will, how could it fall into Dong Zhuo's hands!
Dong Zhuo did not doubt him, so he handed over the holy decree, Ding Yuan took a closer look, the edict was indeed Liu Hong's handwriting, and the payment was stamped with the jade seal of the country. Ding Yuan secretly said in his heart: "If you decide to go down today, if you always change the emperor, it will not be a good thing for the country!" ”
"This edict is fake! Dong Zhuo, you dare to tamper with the edict, do you still have Your Majesty in your eyes? After Ding Yuan finished speaking, he swallowed the edict.
"You... Ding Jianyang! Dong Zhuo said angrily: "Come on, dissect this person for me, I will take out the holy decree!" ”
"Who dare!" A person walked out from behind Ding Yuan, who was born with a majestic and majestic style, holding a Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand, and glaring angrily.
Seeing this, Li Ru immediately persuaded: "Today, in the place of the banquet, you can't talk about national politics, it's not too late to talk about it in the capital!" ”
Seeing Li Ru say this, Dong Zhuo was very puzzled. But because Dong Zhuo has always trusted Li Ru, he knows that Li Ru will not change his mind for no reason. After everyone left, Dong Zhuo asked Li Ru, Li Ru shook his head and said, "Father-in-law didn't pay attention, the general behind Ding Yuan is by no means worse than Hua Xiong." I'm a rat trap! ”
Dong Zhuo thought deeply when he heard this, with Huaxiong's ability, it must not be difficult to kill all the ministers here. If the person behind Ding Yuan is indeed no less than Hua Xiong, Li Ru's choice is the most correct. However, Dong Zhuo didn't know that he had already walked through the ghost gate. The one behind Ding Yuan, but the fiercest general in the late Han Dynasty, didn't even bring one!
The next day, Dong Zhuo was in the court and took out the abolition of the establishment again. The ministers, led by Lu Zhi, held opposing views. Dong Zhuo was about to get angry, when he heard a report from the junior colonel that Ding Yuan was defending the battle outside Luoyang City. Dong Zhuo was furious and led the army to meet Li Ru. The two formations were in circles, and I saw Lu Bu wearing a golden crown on his head, wearing a hundred flower robes, holding Tang Yi armor, wearing a lion treasure belt, and holding a halberd on a horse, and followed Ding Jianyang out to the front of the battle.
Ding Yuan pointed at Dong Zhuo's nose and scolded fiercely, and before Dong Zhuo could react, Lu Bu had already gasus and killed him. Dong Zhuo is also a martial artist, and as soon as Lu Bu makes a move, he knows the depth. Knowing that he was not Lu Bu's opponent, Dong Zhuo turned around and fled, and Ding Yuan took the opportunity to cover up. Dong Zhuo had no choice but to return to the village to hold on.
Back in the big tent, Dong Zhuo sat down in the handsome position, sighed sharply and said, "I think Lu Bu is very human. If you get this person, why worry about the injustice of the world! ”
Hearing Dong Zhuo's emotion, there was a general who claimed to be a fellow villager of Lu Bu and was willing to persuade Lu Bu to surrender for Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo saw that it was Li Su. So, Dong Zhuo gave Li Su a lot of gold and silver treasures, including Dong Zhuo's favorite red rabbit horse.
To tell the truth, when Li Su came to Lu Bu's military camp and offered gold and silver and red rabbit horses, Lu Bu hesitated. Indeed, it is true that Lu Bu is greedy for money and lustful, but he is also affectionate. No, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao cherish each other, even if Zhang Liao wants to go to another future, he is still reluctant to Lu Bu! But Li Su's arrival changed Lu Bu's heart. Because Lu Bu has always felt that Ding Yuan looks down on him, even if he is Ding Yuan's godson.
"Father-in-law!" Lu Bu asked Li Su to sit for a while, and he went straight to Ding Yuan's tent.
When Ding Yuan saw Lu Bu visiting, he smiled slightly and said, "Where did my son come from?" ”
"Dong Zhuo's subordinate Li Su has brought a gift, trying to persuade the child to defect to Dong Zhuo!" Lu Bu stared straight at Ding Yuan, hoping to see his flustered expression. Because of this, it shows that Ding Yuan is ashamed in his heart, even if he kills him, Lu Bu will not feel uncomfortable in his heart!
"I thought you wouldn't tell me!" Ding Yuan smiled and asked, "Have you made a decision, do you want to kill Li Su or kill me?" ”
"This..."Looking at Ding Yuan's flat expression, Lu Bu's heart was trembling, and he remembered what Zhang Liao and Gao Shun usually said to him. Lu Bu gritted his teeth and said, "I have a question, and I ask my father-in-law for advice!" ”
"Do you want to ask, why do I want you to be the master of the book, knowing that you are a rare fierce general in the world?" Ding Yuan asked with a smile.
"Exactly!" Lu Bu asked: "Although I dare not say that I am the number one fierce general in the world, I rarely meet opponents. I don't know why my father-in-law asked me to be the main bookkeeper? And I also heard that my father-in-law once said that I was a Hulu child and I couldn't be used, so did my father-in-law look down on me like this? ”
Ding Yuan laughed and said, "Wrong! You're wrong! Bongxian! I told you to read more, but you just didn't listen. If not, you wouldn't be asking these questions. Saying that you are a Hulu child is unbearable, it is because the father is loving you! As for letting you be the main bookkeeper, I just want you to read more and deal with government affairs more. My father doesn't want you to be a general who can only lead troops to fight, but wants you to be a state pastor and assassin who governs the army and the people! To be a father is to suffer the loss of less reading, otherwise ten years ago, I would have been one of the Jiuqing! ”
"This..."Lu Bu hesitated a little, Ding Yuan's reason for letting him be the master bookkeeper, he could barely accept. Not only Zhang Liao, but also Gao Shun and Cheng Lian can see it. But Ding Yuan said that he was a Hulu child, and he really couldn't accept it. Lu Bu asked: "Hu Lu Xiao'er is insulting the surname, how can the father-in-law say that he is loving?" ”
"I don't have a son of my own, and if I do, I will say it's a dog! Isn't it an insult to compare people to dogs? But this kind of insult is placed on a specific person, and that is humility! Ding Yuan sighed: "Others praise you for your bravery, and you naturally have to be humble as a father." How to be humble? Lu Bu is just a little bit of Hulu, just a little brave! ”
"Uh..." Lu Bu looked at Ding Yuan in a daze, with a look of disbelief.
"Feng Xian!" Ding Yuan said with a tired face: "Actually, I have always regarded you as my own son, but do you regard me as a father?" You've been hesitating, you've been wandering, you've been suppressing the depression in your chest, but you've never thought that father and son need to be honest. If you don't come to it, I can't ask. ”
"Then why did you say it today, isn't it good for me to continue to be confused?" Lu Buhu was in tears, he decided to kill Li Su when he went back, as for the gold and silver horses sent by Li Su, except for the red rabbit horse, the gold and silver were used as military expenses, and it just so happened that Ding Yuan didn't have much money in his hand!
"It's not much time to be a father!" Ding Yuan said with a smile: "Today is my limit, because I have done something that is sorry for the first emperor, and I must atone for my sins with death!" ”
"Father-in-law, the world is in chaos! Even if your son keeps you as the emperor, why should you be loyal to the dead? Lu Bu asked Ding Yuan loudly, he was so easy to untie the knot, and he wanted to repay Ding Yuan, who would have thought that Ding Yuan wanted to die. Lu Bu couldn't accept it, and he didn't want to accept it.
"Presumptuous! Nonsense! Ding Yuan's eyes widened angrily and said: "Pingyue, no matter how naughty and presumptuous you are, your father can tolerate you, but how can you say such a rebellious thing?" Where have you remembered all the teachings of your father? What a disappointment for the father! ”
"Father-in-law, don't be angry, it's all your son's fault!" Seeing that Ding Yuan was angry, Lu Bu quickly changed the topic and said, "What did you do to make you feel so guilty that you have to apologize for your sins with death?" ”
Ding Yuan said with a smile: "The edict in Dong Zhuo's hand is true!" ”
"What?" Lu Bu's eyes widened, he really couldn't believe that a loyal person like Ding Yuan would do such a thing. Lu Bu asked, "Father-in-law, what are you for?" ”
"Kong said to be benevolent, and Meng said to take righteousness. Today, the next day is in chaos, and the prince has just ascended to the base month, and then he will change the emperor again, where is the majesty of the Han Dynasty? How do the people of the world view the Son of Heaven? As a minister of the Han family, how can I sit back and watch the decline of the Han Dynasty? It's a pity that his father is weak and disobeys the will of the first emperor, so he only dies! Ding Yuan sighed in frustration.
"Father, I will guarantee you to kill the subordinates, and then clean up the Han River!" Lu Bu was arrogant and resolute.
"I'm tired of my father!" Ding Yuan looked at Lu Bu very kindly and said, "Fengxian, you are very smart, but you don't want to study." A reckless man cannot survive in troubled times. If you want to listen to your father's nagging in the future, you won't have a chance! Read more! ”
"Father, I..." Looking at Ding Yuan's old face, Lu Bu felt extremely bitter in his heart, he didn't expect Ding Yuan's death intent to be so resolute.
"Bongxian, it doesn't have to be like this! Birth, old age, sickness and death are common sense of human beings, and even male lords and saints cannot avoid it. As a father who is more than 60 years old this year, although it is not a long life, it is not a short life! Ding Yuan patted Lu Bu's shoulder and said, "Today, if I can hear you sincerely call your father, it is death, and it is worth it!" ”
"Father!" Lu Bu was moved in his heart, and knelt down in front of Ding Yuan, his eyes drooping with tears, and tears dripped down his cheeks and fell to the ground. Who said that men don't flick when they have tears, but it's not time to be sad!
"I'm up! Men have gold under their knees, kneel to the sky, kneel to the ground, worship their parents and monarchs in the middle, and never do this in the future! Ding Yuan bypassed the handsome case and helped Lu Bu up and asked: "I am dying for my father, but I have one thing to entrust, I don't know if Feng Xian is willing to fulfill my last wish for me?" ”
