What happened to Yuan Shang and Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo didn't know.
At this moment, several soldiers and horses entering the state were either quick or slow, fast or slow, and they started one after another.
Wherever the situation is favorable, the princes are eagerly awaiting.
In those days, all the princes had intelligence sources, and because of objective reasons, it was not uncommon for them to not be conveyed in place.
Zhang Ji was captured, Li Guo's second general was defeated, and Lu Bu's rebellion was not yet spread.
Chang'an still sings every night.
Xiangguo Mansion.
It's very luxurious, and it's very majestic.
The sound of music and singing and dancing resounded, and the Xiangguo Mansion was brightly lit.
There was a whole row of small servants standing outside the door, there were more than 20 people, all dressed in brocade clothes, looking unusually magnificent.
It was night, and the sound of wheels and horses' hooves suddenly sounded.
By the bright lantern, many of the little men recognized the carriage from afar.
It was pitch black and a little ordinary, and the driver was an old man with gray hair.
Although the carriage was ordinary, the people in the carriage were very unusual.
Those little guys have been making a living outside Xiangguo's mansion for a long time, so they naturally know who the carriage belongs to.
The groom let out a soft shout, accompanied by the neighing of the horses, and the black carriage came to a steady stop outside the Xiangguo Mansion.
The little guys standing outside the gate of Nafu had already greeted them.
They all looked down at the carriage.
A moment later, the curtain was opened, and a thin, white arm came into everyone's eyes.
The arm stretched out, and soon half of the body also poked out, and it didn't take a moment. A middle-aged man dressed as a strategist walked out.
He is tall but looks a little sickly thin. A long whisker hangs down to his chest. The eye sockets collapsed, but it was difficult to hide the deep eyes that were blazing.
A clever little guy hurriedly approached the wheel and suddenly fell to the ground, and the middle-aged man saw this and stepped on his back and walked down.
"Ah Fu, reward this kid with some money."
The middle-aged man said indifferently, his figure was a little hoarse, but it was difficult to hide the thickness in it.
The man's Ah Fu is the coachman who drove the horse. Hearing what the master said, he nodded hurriedly.
"Yes."
After the words fell, he took out a bag of five baht coins from his body and handed it to the clever little guy.
"Take it."
The little guy who looked like he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, under the envious gaze of a small friend, grabbed a bag of five baht coins, and didn't need to weigh it, with the status of that adult, he would naturally not be stingy when he made a move.
The tall and thin middle-aged man shook his wide sleeves, left the coachman, and went to Xiangguo's mansion alone.
The palatial Xiangguo Mansion is brightly lit. There are almost no dead ends, ranging from a few steps or a dozen steps. There is a man in a gray suit to guard, and the huge Xiangguo Mansion has at least ten groups of fighting every day.
The man was obviously very familiar with Xiangguofu, and everyone who met him along the way nodded and saluted, and the identity of this person must not be simple.
The winding courtyards, pavilions and pavilions, rockeries and flowing water, one after another, the legs and feet still walk for more than ten minutes, the deeper they go, not only the guard is more and more stringent, but also the beauties in the palace clothes gather back and forth, and the small girls walk around, which is extremely lively.
The tall and thin middle-aged man was dizzy, and he strode straight to the inner courtyard.
Entering the inner garden, the guards are even more strict, with one person in five steps, and dozens of armored guards patrolling back and forth.
Xiangguo Mansion is very large, Dong Zhuo came to Chang'an with Liu Xie, and he came to a vast scene of labor and money, just one month, Xiangguo Mansion has been built, its area and glory, straight after the palace where Liu Xie lived.
"Praise is not named, enter the court is not trending, and the sword goes to the temple"
Compared with these etiquettes that go beyond the courtiers, the huge scale of the Xiangguo Mansion is just a small tip of the iceberg.
The tall and thin man stopped outside a hall-like hall, and the tall gilded columns were in the night, and the same golden light was close to people's eyes.
Outside the hall, the armored soldiers were lined up with guns and halberds, and they were vigilant from the dark, and the further forward the singing and dancing became thicker and clearer, the middle-aged man straightened his sleeves, took a deep breath, and then walked in.
The spacious and glorious hall is full of singing and dancing, fluttering sleeves, chimes ringing, melodious music, and smoky.
In the center, a clear pond, duckweed all over the ground, green and clear.
In the highest part of the hall, the Taishi chair carved from the best wood, the burly Dong Zhuo sat tall, and on his lap, there was a petite woman, who was not Diao Chan.
The middle-aged man who stepped into the hall walked straight forward as if he couldn't see it.
"Ru has seen my father-in-law."
The middle-aged man looked only a few years younger than Dong Zhuo, but he called himself a son-in-law, as if he was Li Ru, the most famous chief strategist under Dong Zhuo.
"Wenyou is here, sit."
Dong Zhuo held a crystal water grape stuffed in his mouth, his mouth stirred, and his tone was a little slurred.
"Beauty, sit down first."
As he spoke, he roughly pushed Diao Chan aside, looked at Li Ru, who was able to sit down, and said, "Come here so late, but there's news from the front?" ”
When Li Ru heard this, he glanced at Diao Chan without leaving a trace.
Dong Zhuo understood, and glanced at Diao Chan, whose hair was slightly messy, a smart woman, who never needed a man to say more.
Because a wise woman knows how to measure things.
There is no doubt that Diao Chan is a woman who is both intelligent and measured.
walked lightly and saluted Li Ru, but the chief military advisor of the Xiliang Army never gave her a good face, and her eyes were slightly cold.
Diao Chan seemed to have long been used to it, smiled disappretently, and left with a fragrance.
When only the two of them were left in the hall, I heard Li Ru's voice a little gloomy and said: "Father-in-law, this daughter is ominous, and the son-in-law implores the father-in-law not to spoil this daughter, otherwise it will be too late to regret it." ”
When Dong Zhuo heard this, his brows frowned slightly, and the same words were mentioned from Li Ru's mouth more than once.
Even if he trusts Li Ru a lot, he still inevitably dislikes it in his heart.
"It's just a woman, why should Wen You mind so much, do you think that your father will lose at the hands of such a weak woman? Jokes, big jokes. Dong Zhuo's tone was a little irritated.
"But..."
Li Ru was still about to say something, but was rudely interrupted by Dong Zhuo: "Come here late at night, you won't come over to remind your father not to indulge in wine, right?" ”
Seeing this, Li Ru sighed, and inevitably felt a little lost in his heart.
Where is the eloquent and wolf-hearted lord back then?
It's getting old after all.
Li Ru felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart, but listened to Li Ru's somewhat gloomy voice: "In the past two days, the son-in-law has been sitting in the wolf's tooth, and he has been sending intelligence elements back and forth between Bingzhou and Chang'an. ”
When Dong Zhuo heard this, a little of the wine dissipated, and he frowned: "Could it be that there is a delay on the road?" ”
Li Ru shook his head and said: "Impossible, even if the sentinels of the various armies do not come to report, the intelligence officers of the wolf tooth will pass the news back through the channel on time, and as of entering the mansion, the son-in-law has not received any news, the only possibility is that the intelligence personnel of the sentry and the wolf tooth have an accident." ”
This time, Dong Zhuo also realized the seriousness of the problem.
"Accidents? Could it be that all of them had an accident? Dong Zhuo said in a slightly deep tone.
"I hope it's not..."Li Ru shook his head: "However, according to the current situation, this possibility is very high." ”
Dong Zhuo got up suddenly, and the floor under his feet shook, and Li Ru below felt the trembling that flashed.
This middle-aged man, who was beginning to gain some fat, exuded an awe-inspiring aura of devouring mountains and rivers.
"Let Fan Chou go out, bring the capable wolf teeth to see for yourself, if something really happens, then this battle will be even more difficult than you and I imagined."
"The son-in-law understands," he said. Li Ru lowered his head and nodded.
Hearing the news, Dong Zhuo had no intention of enjoying it, his eyes were shining, and he said after a while: "Is there any change in the soldiers and horses on the way to Linrong?" ”
When Li Ru heard this, he frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything, and replied softly: "It's no different from usual, the spies who were planted in the army have already sent the news before nightfall. ”
Hearing this, Dong Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief slightly, nodded and said: "That's fine, the other roads don't matter if they are frustrated, as long as there are no accidents in the general direction, this battle will achieve the goal you and I expect." ”
When Li Ru heard this, he nodded, and then bowed down and said, "In this way, if the father-in-law has no other matters to explain, the son-in-law will go and arrange Fan Chou's action." ”
"Go ahead," Dong Zhuo said with a wave of his hand.
Li Ru left, leaving Dong Zhuo alone to ponder for a long time, and then left the glorious hall without interest.
After the two left, no one knew what to do, on the wall, a figure like a spider, slowly falling from the hall beam, the toes just touched the ground, the next second, the body swept up, looked for a direction, and disappeared. (To be continued......)
