After Li Ru finished telling Dong Shouye, he was going to leave.

At this time, the little guy in the house suddenly came to report: "Enlightened son, there is a guest visiting!" Do you have an interview? ”

Dong Shouye was stunned when he heard this, usually no one would come to visit him, if it was his subordinates, he would have already passed on his name, and his new friend Wei Zhongdao didn't know his address yesterday, so he asked: "Has the other party reported his name?" ”

The little guy replied: "It's a frequent visitor to the mansion, and the tiger will be Dong Cheng!" ”

Dong Shouye smiled when he heard this, and said secretly: "It turned out to be him, interesting!" ”

Before Dong Shouye could speak, Li Ru instructed the little guy, "Let him come in!" ”

After a while, the little guy led Dong Cheng into Dong Shouye's small courtyard. The little guy said to Dong Cheng: "The one standing in front is my son-in-law, and you also know Lord Li next to him." ”

Dong Cheng looked forward along the little guy's point, his face suddenly changed, and he secretly complained in his heart: "I didn't expect that yesterday in the land of fireworks, I actually met the son of the Dong family, and yesterday he was also majestic in front of him, but now it is mentioned on the iron plate." Seeing that Li Ru was also there, I felt a little better, and I hoped that Li Ru could mediate it.

Dong Shouye saw that it was indeed Dong Cheng, who was reckless and majestic yesterday, so he looked at each other with a smile.

Dong Cheng had no choice but to bite the bullet, stepped forward and saluted Dong Shouye, and said: "The lower official Dong Cheng visited the son and met Master Li. ”

Dong Shouye stepped forward to help Dong Cheng and said: "Dong Zhonglang is polite, it stands to reason that Dong Zhonglang is Shouye's uncle, and it should be Shouye to meet Dong Zhonglang." ”

Dong Cheng said straightly: "Don't dare!" Can't! At this time, Dong Cheng didn't dare to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf anymore. Although Dong Shouye is nominally a nephew, he is actually the young master of the Xiliang Army, and Dong Cheng, as a member of the Xiliang Army, does not dare to pretend to be an elder there. It's better to do your duty as a courtier honestly. ”

The three of them were polite, and Dong Cheng said: "Yesterday's incident, please forgive me." ”

When Dong Shouye heard this, he said: "My fair lady, the gentleman is good." Uncle Clan is wrong. Yesterday's incident was just messing around with friends after Shouye was drunk, and Uncle Clan didn't have to take it to heart. ”

Li Ru next to him was surprised when he heard this, so he asked, Dong Cheng didn't dare to hide it, and immediately explained the jealousy between the two parties last night. Li Ru laughed when he heard this: "In this way, the two of you don't know each other!" ”

At this time, there were no servants in the mansion, even Dian Wei had something to do, and there were only three people in the entire courtyard: Dong Shouye, Li Ru, and Dong Cheng.

Dong Cheng's visit to Dong Shouye this time is not a big deal, he just wants to be familiar in front of the future master, and he also wants to ask some things about Dong Zhuo's 60th birthday, after all, Dong Cheng is Dong Zhuo's nominal clan, and many things need him to come forward to handle.

The three talked for a while, and Li Ru and Dong Cheng left their homes.

At this time, Dian Wei happened to come back from outside, so he asked Dong Shouye: "Son, isn't the person who was in the mansion just now the arrogant Dongcheng yesterday, yesterday he actually made Gongzi lose face in front of everyone." Childe will kill his prestige in the future. ”

After Dong Shouye heard Dian Wei's words, his face, which was still smiling just now, suddenly turned cloudy and gloomy, and said to Dian Wei: "Last night was just a farce, stop this matter, don't mention it again." ”

Dian Wei didn't say much when he heard this.

Dong Shouye continued to ask: "Evil, how did this son let you do it." ”

Dian Wei replied: "Childe, the matter has been done, just now I Lao Dian found the carpenter, and the guy replied that the things have been made, and now Childe can arrange for someone to pick it up." ”

Dong Shouye was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "In this way, half of the gifts for my father's birthday banquet have been completed, and my father will definitely be satisfied now." ”

Dian Wei echoed beside him: "The son has good filial piety, as long as he can serve the Taishi, he will not prepare any gifts, and the Taishi will be happy."

Dong Shouye nodded, and began to prepare for other things.

It is said that after Dong Cheng walked out of Dong Shouye's small courtyard, he was so frightened that he was in a cold sweat, and returned to his mansion with a pale face.

The day of Dong Zhuo's birthday banquet was an auspicious day of the zodiac, with clear skies and good weather.

As the most powerful person in the world, Dong Zhuo's 60th birthday was quite grand, and there were many people at the banquet. It can be said that people with heads and faces in Chang'an City have come.

For the arrangement of this birthday banquet, Dong clan members such as Dong Shouye, Dong Min, Dong Huang, Dong Cheng and other Dong clan members are responsible for welcoming guests, and each person is responsible for different heavyweights.

The old fox Wang Yun was once again entrusted by Dong Zhuo with an important task to host the birthday banquet.

As the famous Qingliu Cai Yong was appointed as the master of ceremonies, responsible for the normal birthday banquet etiquette, the general adviser of the ceremony, and the boss in the center of the hall is the first pen of the most famous calligrapher of the Han Dynasty.

When Dong Shouye was greeting guests in front of the mansion, he happened to see his mentor Zheng Tai and a few people walking towards the Taishi Mansion.

Dong Shouye hurriedly greeted the general, bowed to Zheng Tai, and said, "Disciple Dong Bai, I have seen my teacher." ”

Zheng Tai smiled and said: "No need to be polite, today is your father's birthday banquet, and it will be lively and lively as a teacher." ”

Dong Shouye was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "My father must be very happy that my teacher can come." ”

It turned out that since Zheng Tai accepted Dong Shouye as a disciple, he has been going deep and simple, closing the door and not interacting with the outside world. Even the last dynasty rarely expressed its opinion. As if a different person had suddenly changed, Dong Shouye had heard many messages recently that Zheng Tai intended to resign and go into hiding, although this matter was not acknowledged by Zheng Tai, but it was still spreading, and even Dong Zhuo asked Dong Shouye once. However, Dong Shouye had just returned to Chang'an at that time, and he didn't know anything, so Dong Zhuo didn't continue to ask.

When Dong Shouye was studying in Zheng Mansion, he once asked a question, but he didn't get any results.

However, in the eyes of many people, the news that Zheng Tai is going to resign is true, in that era, it was too normal for officials to resign and go into hiding, basically whenever the situation was unstable and turbulent, it turned back to a group of people who resigned and went into hiding, avoiding the limelight and preventing being affected by irrelevant battles, which was also a wise way to protect themselves.

Although the current situation is that Dong Zhuo controls the imperial court, there is also an undercurrent. Zheng Tai is famous all over the world, and he is a great Confucian at home, if he suddenly announces his resignation and retirement, and concentrates on teaching his children, no one can say anything about him.

After all, it's also a very popular fad!
