Chapter 4: Father and Son

Dong Shouye followed Li Ru to the conference hall, where Dong Zhuo was waiting for his son.

Dong Shouye walked quickly to the desk where Dong Zhuo was kneeling, knelt on the ground with a plop, and said, "The child meets his father!" After saying that, he kowtowed three more times, and after kowtowing, he fell to the ground.

Dong Zhuo stood up from the side of the case, walked to Dong Shouye, and helped Dong Shouye up with both hands, and Dong Shouye also stood up. Dong Zhuo looked at Dong Shouye quietly for a while, and then said: "Time is so fast, I didn't expect that the hairy young man who only knew how to be angry with his father at the beginning grew up in a blink of an eye, and became a general who could take charge on his own." ”

When Dong Shouye heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, his old face flushed, and he smiled wryly.

Li Ru next to him echoed: "Congratulations to the Taishi, the son of Shouye has shown his power in Luoyang this time, and he has the style of the Taishi who crisscrossed the West Liang back then, and he is really a tiger father without a dog!" "Dong Zhuo has already made himself a master some time ago, and he is no longer the prime minister.

Obviously, Li Ru's sycophant shot is very level, and Dong Zhuo is extremely comfortable.

In this world, all parents hope that their children will be able to get ahead in the future and achieve a career. Although Dong Zhuo is powerful in the world, he is still a mortal, and he is naturally happy when he hears others praise his son.

I saw Dong Zhuo laugh loudly, and then said loudly: "Wenyou, that's right, Shouye has done a good job in Luoyang this time, destroying the prestige of the Kwantung princes, and boosting the ambition of our Xiliang army." ”

Seeing this, Dong Shouye said: "The child can achieve some achievements today, all thanks to the full support of his father and eldest brother-in-law behind him, and the biggest credit for this is still your father!" ”

Dong Zhuo grinned, smiled, and said, "Shouye, you don't have to be modest. You did a good job this time, and both Father and Wenyou are happy for you. After speaking, he patted his head and continued: "Patronizing and talking, hurry up, Wenyou, Shouye, take a seat!" ”

Li Ru and Dong Shouye arched their hands towards Dong Zhuo, said "yes" in unison, and then walked to their seats.

In fact, Dong Zhuo feels guilty about Dong Shouye, since the day Dong Shouye was born, Dong Zhuo has been leading troops to fight abroad, and he can't go home a few times a year, and the father and son can't see each other a few times.

The father and son get together less and leave more, so there is an emotional estrangement, which Dong Zhuo is also like a mirror in his heart, and he feels more and more indebted to Dong Shouye.

To say that although Dong Zhuo is majestic on the battlefield, he is also very unhappy at home, and the main reason is that Dong Zhuo has no son.

The ancients said: There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great. In ancient society, no matter how beautiful a man was in front of others, once he did not have a son, no matter how great his achievements were, he would be pale and powerless. At that time, people struggled all their lives to seek a wife, even in today's society this phenomenon still exists, many people's biggest pursuit of life, not to say how much to achieve, but just to give birth to a son, inherit the incense.

Dong Zhuo has several daughters, but there are only two sons, the eldest son died early, only lived to be nine years old, Dong Shouye is the youngest son, Dong Zhuo only succeeded in creating people in his forties, according to the words at that time, it was an old man.

The elderly have a son, and this sentence is no longer suitable for Dong Zhuo. Therefore, Dong Zhuo has poured a lot of affection into Dong Shouye, which can also be clearly felt in Dong Shouye's daily contact with Dong Zhuo.

Originally, Dong Zhuo's plan was that after he struggled all his life to become famous, Dong Shouye could inherit his title after his death and enjoy a lifetime of wealth.

Power is like a drug, addictive, enchanting, once you get your hands on it, you can't give it up. Dong Zhuo, who led the elite of Xiliang into Luoyang, after a fierce competition, then grasped the supreme authority in the world. At this time, it is impossible to hand over the power in his hands, even if he is willing, others will not be willing. After handing over the rights, Dong Zhuo may have only one end, and that is: death.

At this time, there is no room for relaxation, and taking a step back cannot be the sea and the sky, it will only be death, and then the family will be annihilated.

Dong Zhuo is already over sixty years old, and half of his body has been buried in the ground, he can protect Dong Shouye for a while, but he can't protect Dong Shouye for a lifetime. Dong Zhuo is also a person who has experienced strong winds and Lang, and he knows that once he dies, his son will not be spared.

In Dong Zhuo's view, there is only one way to turn the corner, that is, to let Dong Shouye inherit his own qiē after his death, take charge of the authority of the world, and stand at the pinnacle of power like himself, so as to ensure that his life is safe.

When Dong Zhuo first entered Luoyang, his shape was complicated, and he had no time to think about these issues. When the shape was a little more stable, and Dong Zhuo had completely mastered Luoyang, this question began to enter Dong Zhuo's mind, and at that time, the original Dong Shouye was still screwing with his father? Father and son are angry with each other, and many problems naturally cannot be handled.

In addition, Dong Shouye was injured when he went out hunting, which was really a sweat in Dong Zhuo's heart, that is, after this incident, the relationship between father and son improved slightly. When the white wave thieves attacked Hedong and Niu Fu, who was guarding Hedong, asked Dong Zhuo for help, Dong Shouye, who had always been at odds with his father, suddenly asked Dong Zhuo for battle as if he had changed his temper, which really surprised Dong Zhuo. There was also Li Ru who helped Dong Shouye speak, and Dong Zhuo made up his mind to let Dong Shouye go through the experience.

Dong Zhuo was a little ashamed to think that this was also a little ashamed, he was still wandering around his home at the age of seventeen, doing his filial piety beside his parents. And his son had to go to the battlefield at this time to go through the test of life and death of blood and fire, for no other reason, the shape was stronger than people. If Dong Zhuo is soft-hearted for a while and reluctant to let his children go to the battlefield, then Dong Shouye will not be able to inherit Dong Zhuo's career in the future, and in the end he can only be a fish on the board and be slaughtered by others.

gritted his teeth, reluctant to have children, and couldn't trap wolves.

Fortunately, the tiger father has no dogs, Dong Shouye is a good material for fighting, and now he can stand alone.

Thinking of this, Dong Zhuo said: "I didn't expect that in less than two years, my son will already be an adult, it seems that my father really has to tell my son about a family affair, and pass on the lineage for our old Dong family as early as possible, and continue the incense." ”
