Chapter 55: Murder
After discussing the matter of Wan Hansui and Ma Teng with his father Dong Zhuo and his eldest brother-in-law Li Ru in Dong Zhuo's inner room, Dong Shouye returned to his small courtyard and sent someone to find Jia Xu and Du Ji, and told them about the upcoming troops, so that they could start preparing as much as possible.
wrote another letter to Cai Yan, arranged for the little servants in the mansion to be sent to Cai Yong's mansion, briefly explained the situation in his heart, and said that after returning to Chang'an, he would get married immediately.
After doing this qiē, Dong Shouye went to the ancestor to say goodbye and say goodbye.
On the way back, something suddenly occurred to him.
Suddenly struck by lightning, he hurriedly ran to Li Ru's house to ask for a meeting.
Li Ru saw Dong Shouye Daqi, didn't they just meet not long ago? Why did he come to the door in person in a hurry?
Dong Shouye didn't wait for Li Ru to ask, so he looked for the base and said, "Brother-in-law, I have a confidant to discuss with you." ”
Seeing this, Li Ru didn't dare to slack off, and immediately reprimanded left and right, and took Dong Shouye to his study.
After arriving at the study, Li Ru asked, "Shouye, what is it that makes you so panicked." ”
Why are you so panicked, it turns out that this guy suddenly thought that Dong Zhuo was murdered by Lu Bu and Wang Yun in April 192, but now it is the beginning of November 191.
In other words, according to the development of history, Dong Zhuo has less than six months to go, and Dong Zhuo is going to die.
As Dong Zhuo's son, can Dong Shouye watch his biological father Dong Zhuo being murdered to death?
Absolutely not!
Dong Shouye saw Li Ru asking, so he replied: "Brother-in-law, I have a hunch that after I leave Chang'an this time, I'm afraid that someone will be unfavorable to my father?" ”
Seeing this, Li Ru smiled a little disappreciatively and said, "Shouye, you are joking." At the moment, Chang'an is calm and quiet, and who dares to make a mistake, you won't be worried that the assassination like the one made on the day of the birthday banquet will be staged again! This is possible, but recently, the Taishi's guards have been greatly strengthened, and it can be said that it is foolproof. There shouldn't be any problems. ”
Seeing this, Dong Shouye hurriedly said: "Brother-in-law, I mean it, it's not a joke. ”
When Li Ru heard this, his face turned straight and he suddenly seemed to think of something and said: "Shouye, you say so, my brother-in-law thinks that this matter is somewhat possible." ”
After finishing speaking, he stood up and paced and said: "Recently, the court has been very quiet, the Taishi has made a promise, basically no one dares to refute it, if this is placed in the past, it is impossible, as the saying goes, if something is abnormal, it is a demon, the court has been too quiet recently, and it is indeed a little abnormal." ”
When Dong Shouye heard this, he asked, "Brother-in-law, how is Wang Yun doing recently?" ”
Li Ru replied: "Wang Situ has always been the right hand of the Taishi, helping the Taishi take care of the affairs of the court, and usually acting as the mouthpiece of the Taishi, in general, there is no problem?" ”
Turned startled, he opened his mouth and asked, "Shouye, is it because you suspect that Wang Situ has a problem?" ”
Dong Shouye nodded and said: "Then Wang Yun has always been a self-proclaimed loyal minister of the Han Dynasty before my father entered Beijing, how could he suddenly change his attitude after my father entered Beijing, change the court, and switch to my father's command, at this time, there is a doubt." Again. Cao Cao once tried to assassinate my father, but when he failed, he was able to escape in the name of offering a sword. I heard that the treasure knife that day was called the Seven Star Treasure Knife, and it was Wang Yun's treasure. Isn't it strange that this Wang Yun's treasure knife appeared in Cao Cao's hand? In my opinion, it must have been Wang Yun who conspired with Cao Cao to lend the sword to Cao Cao. ”
When Li Ru heard this, he shook his head and said, "It's just a knife, I can't tell what the problem is." ”
Dong Shouye said again: "Brother-in-law, I want to kill Wang Yun immediately, I wonder if the eldest brother-in-law thinks this matter is feasible?" ”
Li Ru was shocked when he heard this, and said: "Shouye, this matter is absolutely impossible, absolutely not." If the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee are killed without authorization, I am afraid that the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty will be terrified, and the situation in Chang'an, which has just stabilized, will be ruined. Even the Taishi may not agree, but the gap between father and son because of an outsider is not worth the loss. ”
Dong Shouye was furious when he heard this, and said: "Wang Yun wants to kill my father, as a son of man, he naturally takes precautions to prevent his father from being harmed?" ”
Seeing this, Li Ru asked loudly: "Shouye, you said that Wang Yun wants to kill the Taishi, but is there any real evidence?" ”
When Dong Shouye heard this, he immediately wilted, and said curtly: "This is not true. ”
Li Ru said: "Without real evidence, how can you kill people indiscriminately." ”
Dong Shouye said angrily when he heard this: "What if there is no real evidence, for the sake of my father's safety, what does it matter if I kill all ten thousand people?" After saying that, his whole body was murderous. The murderous aura that had accumulated on the battlefield for several years suddenly radiated.
In fact, Dong Shouye can be sure in his heart that Wang Yun wants to murder his father Dong Zhuo, but he can't say that that's what is written in the history books! Now I really feel like a dumb person eating Coptis chinensis, and I have a feeling of bitterness that I can't say.
Li Ru saw Dong Shouye's murderous awe, and he was also shocked, as if he saw Dong Zhuo's appearance when he was young, he let out a long sigh and said, "Shouye, my brother-in-law knows that you are worried about the safety of the Taishi, so he will not choose to speak." The Master would be happy if he knew about this. It's just that Wang Yun's status is special, and even the Taishi doesn't dare to kill him lightly, let alone you. If Wang Yun is really suspicious, your brother-in-law promises you that you will increase the surveillance of Wang Yun in the future, and never let her take advantage of it again, once the brother-in-law finds tangible evidence, he will immediately start killing Wang Yun. ”
Seeing this, Dong Shouye knew that he had lost his words, and when he saw that Li Ru had promised to increase the surveillance of Wang Yun, he could only give up, thought about it, and said, "Brother-in-law, there is still one more person to guard against?" ”
Li Ru was surprised when he heard this, and asked, "Who is it?" ”
Dong Shouye replied, "Lu Bu." ”
Li Ru was puzzled: "The Taishi treats Lu Buen as heavy as a mountain, so why does Lu Bu rebel against the Taishi, there is no reason?" ”
Dong Shouye said: "Originally, I didn't think of this person, but the military advisor Jia Xu once hinted at me. Jia Xu's brother-in-law should know something, this person is good at figuring out people's hearts. Brother-in-law, please imagine, if there is no appearance of me, our army is now the most radiant, responsible for leading the troops to fight, who should be the one who is fighting in the east and west? ”
Li Ru pondered for a while and said: "As the righteous son of the Taishi, Lu Bu is a matter of duty to fight for the Taishi, and it is his duty to fight for the Taishi. And this person is quite talented in leading troops in battle, no less than guarding the profession. If there is no defence, this person will lead the army, and he will be sure of nine times out of ten. ”
Dong Shouye continued: "Brother-in-law, please imagine that something that originally belonged to you was suddenly wanted by others, and no one would want to leave this kind of thing. ”
Li Ru let out a long sigh and said, "Let me think about this matter in detail. ”
