Chapter 32: The Gathering of the Princes
As soon as these words came out, Hua Xiong trembled with fright, and kept saying that he didn't dare. And Lu Bu was silent on the surface, but in his heart he didn't think so, he was not afraid of Dong Zhuo at all, why should he grovel to him! Besides, the more you are afraid of a person like Dong Zhuo, the more he thinks you are incompetent!
Sure enough, Dong Zhuo glanced at Lu Bu deeply and nodded lightly, as if he was very satisfied. "You can do great things!" Dong Zhuo said to Lu Bu meaningfully, but Hua Xiong was at a loss and didn't understand the meaning of his words.
At this time, Dong Zhuo saw that the two of them were quiet, suddenly sighed, and tasted tea alone. Seeing this, Hua Xiong hurriedly flattered: "Why is Xiangye upset, if I can do it, I will definitely go to the soup and go to the fire, and I will not give up!" As soon as the words fell, Dong Zhuo put down the teacup and said, "You already know the affairs of the princes from all walks of life, right?" ”
"Xiangye, they are all a group of rabble, and they can't make any waves at all! You can rest assured, Hua Xiong will definitely cut off the heads of these traitors for Xiang Ye and be angry for Xiang Ye! Hua Xiong knelt down on one knee and said with an oath. As soon as Dong Zhuo heard this, he stood up from the stool, personally helped Hua Xiong up, and said with a seemingly touched feeling: "Well, I naturally know your loyalty, I wish you a smooth sailing and success!" ”
Hua Xiong was really Dong Zhuo's confidant, and when he heard Dong Zhuo's words, he was so excited that he couldn't speak for a long time. Lu Bu wanted to vomit when he saw it on the side, such hypocritical words were true, and he didn't know if Hua Xiong was a simple-minded fool with well-developed limbs, such a few words were worth his life and death.
At this time, Lu Bu saw that Dong Zhuo was looking at himself, so he pretended to be very calm and said: "I don't dare to say anything else, as long as I am by your side, no one can hurt you!" "Since ancient times, the companion is like a tiger, you must speak in a measured manner, and you must do what you can, otherwise if you are not careful, you will fall into a place of no return.
"Well, I just like your character! Ha! Ha! Ha! With your two fierce generals, even if there are thousands of troops, how can I be afraid! Dong Zhuo looked up to the sky and laughed, already knowing the victory of this war.
In fact, Dong Zhuo's implication was to ask Lu Bu and Hua Xiong to let go of their personal grievances, and the two of them were not fools, how could they not understand what he meant. But the seeds of hatred have been planted between the two, and one day they will explode, but because of Dong Zhuo's existence, they will be suppressed for the time being.
Subsequently, Dong Zhuo set up a banquet for Huaxiong to catch the wind, and after three rounds of wine, Lu Bu borrowed the strength of the wine to return to the room. Facing Hua Xiong, who was bullying Lan Xin, he really didn't have much appetite to eat, and Dong Zhuo seemed to know that the two had just fought, so after a little restraint, he let him go back to rest.
I listened to Dong Zhuo's nonsense in the hall for a day, and it was already dark at this time. Lu Bu walked to the door of the room, there was a black hole inside, and then pushed the door in, sat on the stool, and did not light the lamp, trying to quietly find a trace of peace in the dark. A lot of things have happened in the past two days, first I met Diao Chan, and today Lan Xin was bullied by Hua Xiong, and I wanted to be angry for Lan Xin, but unfortunately I was stopped by Dong Zhuo.
There is a peerless martial art, but it can't be displayed, this feeling is really too embarrassing! At this moment, Lu Bu felt that his head was about to explode! "Woo! Woo! Woo! The sound of sobbing suddenly rang out in the room. Who? Lu Bu exclaimed, coldly screaming, so frightened that his hairs stood up, and he didn't even dare to breathe.
The voice fell for a long time, and no one responded, only the plaintive cry sounded in the room, over and over again. At this time, an idea popped up in Lu Bu's mind, could it be a female ghost?
"It's me!" Lan Xin slowly walked in front of Lu Bu from the darkness, burst into tears, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and she threw herself into his arms under Lu Bu's surprised gaze. "I'm sorry I wronged you!" In order to alleviate the embarrassment, Lu Bu hurriedly said, just now, he was scared into a cold sweat by Lan Xin, and his whole body was soaked.
"I didn't ...... It's okay...... It's my own fault, and I've bothered you! Lan Xin raised her head and looked at Lu Bu with tears in her eyes. And when she said this, it further stimulated Lu Bu's determination to get rid of Huaxiong, he was a human in two lives, but his relatives were all in the Three Kingdoms, Diao Chan was imprisoned, Ran Ying followed Zhang Liao, and Lan Xin, the only one by his side......
"In the future, I won't let you suffer any more grievances! That Hua Xiong, sooner or later I will make him head different! Lu Bu wiped the tears from Lan Xin's face with the back of his hand, gently stroked her head, and sat quietly, without words or lights.
It is said that since Cao Cao issued the message, the princes from all walks of life have gathered, and there are countless elite soldiers and strong generals under his command, and 400,000 soldiers and horses under his command, and for a while, the world was shocked. And Cao Cao himself never expected this result.
The princes of the world discuss Dong, a total of eighteen road princes. There are later generals Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu, Jizhou Mu Hanfu, Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Ling, Yanzhou Thorn Shi Liu Dai, Hanoi County Taishou Wang Kuang, Chen Liutai Shou Zhang Miao, Dongjun Taishou Qiao Mao, Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi, Jibei Xiang Bao Xin, Beihai Taishou Kong Rong, Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao, Beiping Taishou Gongsun Zhan, Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang, Wucheng Hou Changsha Taishou Sun Jian, Qixiang Hou Bohai Taishou Yuan Shao, Xiaoqi Captain Cao Cao, Xiliang Taishou Ma Teng, Xuzhou Thorn Shi Taoqian.
In order to make the next meeting of the board of directors better, Cao Cao himself paid out of his own pocket, slaughtered cattle and horses, and set up a banquet. Because of the huge power of Yuan Shao's family, Yuan Shao sat on the main seat, Cao Cao was the initiator, sitting at the bottom, and the others sat in turn, drinking and talking, which was very lively.
When the banquet was halfway through, Yuan Shao hid his face and drank, but he gave Yuan Shu a look behind his back, and Yuan Shu understood. "Today, Dong Zhuo, a traitor, has acted perversely, causing the people to complain, and we and others should move forward bravely to get rid of this traitor!"
As soon as these words came out, the princes from all walks of life scolded Dong Zhuo's atrocities one after another, and they spat and spitted, so it was not lively! And Cao Cao was very satisfied when he saw everyone behaving like this, what he wanted was to provoke everyone's anger against Dong Zhuo, and Yuan Shu did this, which also saved him a lot of tongues. However, Yuan Shu coughed lightly, and when everyone saw this, they stopped one after another and looked at him quietly.
"Then again, Dong Zhuo has four fierce generals under his command and hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers. In order to defeat it in one fell swoop, there must be a foolproof strategy. As the saying goes, a snake can't do without a head, and today an alliance leader must be elected, otherwise what is the difference between us and the rabble? ”
"Besides, we all have good soldiers, and we can't fight each other, let's make a mess! At that time, before Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses arrived, we would be defeated by ourselves! Therefore, I think we should choose a person with high moral standing to be the leader of this alliance! Yuan Shu stroked his beard and said eloquently.
