Chapter 65: Potential Allies
Yong'an Palace
The atmosphere was a little tense, Dong Zhuo looked at Wu Qiong's headless corpse and the golden gourd warriors in the courtyard with a pale face, and then looked at the wine jug containing the poisonous wine, the wine in the jug was left from the mouth of the pot, and soon dissolved into a hole in the bluestone ground.
Li Ru frowned, looked up at Li Xuan, who looked at himself, compared to Wu Qiong's motives or who instructed him, he was more curious about the Zhenbei general in front of him, who was already indifferent to Dong Zhuo, who was now in power, was he bluffing or was confident enough to escape from Luoyang with this mere 300 people in a million army?
If the former is okay, if the latter, does that mean that the other party still has a potential force in this Luoyang City that has not been used, and it is absolutely impossible to want to run rampant in Luoyang with three hundred people.
Compared with Dong Zhuo's anger and Li Ru's full of thoughts, Lu Bu was much simpler, standing behind Dong Zhuo casually, his eyes swept over Li Xuan and the ugly man behind him with interest, Li Xuan said that at least in terms of force, Lu Bu could completely abuse the other party, but the man behind him actually made Lu Bu have a faint sense of crisis in his heart, this feeling, in the past, on Danhan Mountain, Yue Fei and a military general named Zhao Yun also appeared, Lu Bu didn't understand, this man was obviously not outstanding in martial arts, but why are there one fierce general after another around you who can make you vigilant!?
"General Ziyang knows that it is a big crime to kill the officials of the imperial court!" After a long time, Dong Zhuo finally took the lead in speaking, he had similar worries about Li Ru, looking at Li Xuan, a touch of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"Then does the master know that you will be in great trouble?" Regarding Dong Zhuo's words of interrogation rather than questioning, Li Xuan did not answer. If the other party wants to use this as an excuse to blame himself, he can't avoid it at all, and once he shows weakness a little, he will face the other party's fierce pursuit and fierce beating.
"Oh?" Dong Zhuo raised his eyelids. Laughed.
Li Xuan smiled and continued: "Maybe Taishi thinks that you now have great power in your hands, controlling the land of Jingzi and Sanfu, and there are even more fierce generals like Fengxian who will fight on the battlefield for you, the heroes of the world, you must not dare to infer Qifeng?" ”
"Listening to what the Marquis of Ji said, it seems that there are different opinions?" Li Ru raised his head and met Li Xuan's gaze, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Li Xuan took a deep look at Li Ru. This is the first time he has faced the famous strategists of the Three Kingdoms period as an antagonist, Li Ru may not be the top layer, but he can hold Dong Zhuo to this position, and he is by no means an incompetent person, but unfortunately, there are not many stages left for him, after Dong Zhuo was defeated, Li Ru never appeared again.
There is no roe deer as described in the rendition. The face is abominable, on the contrary. Looks delicate but not weak, very Confucian, it is not difficult to understand when you think about it, Li Ru is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, even if Dong Fatzi's appearance is a little inconsistent, but the aesthetics should still be in the category of normal human beings. Otherwise, in history, Wang Yun's beauty plan would not work, and choosing a son-in-law for his daughter would not be able to find a roe deer unless he was psychopathic. People don't want to see it at a second glance.
"Doing things without permission, even if there is an edict of the first emperor, but with the virtue of Dong Taishi, I am afraid that he does not have this qualification, and it is even more difficult for the people of the world to recognize, and the current Taishi decree is not out of Luoyang, which is the best proof; In addition, although the Taishi now has many soldiers and horses, there are Xiliang Jing Cavalry, there are Xianzhou Iron Cavalry and Luoyang New Army, which are mixed, and there are even grievances between each other, and there will also be factions under the Taishi under the account of the Taishi in the future, one is not good, that is, the situation of dumping each other, in addition, although the Chinese military forces of the DPRK are forced by force and submit to the Taishi's obscenity, there will be resentment in their hearts, if there is no war, it is good, once someone openly opposes or even raises troops to attack, the rear of the Taishi will inevitably be unstable, and the most terrible thing is that the Taishi is in Ming, These people are in the dark, the so-called long-term defense will be lost, the wise man still has a hundred secrets, one day does not find out these people hiding in the shadows, it will be difficult for the Taishi to be truly peaceful one day, let alone hegemony! Li Xuan said these words, which can be regarded as a wake-up call to Dong Zhuo, who is now complacent, the world of the primordial plane is still some distance away from him, so he might as well have some fun for the heroes.
Li Ru looked at Li Xuan's gaze, a flash of light, this person is too dangerous, Li Xuan said these things, Li Ru, as the first strategist by Dong Zhuo's side, naturally will not be completely unaware, everything Li Xuan said can be said to be directly aimed at Dong Zhuo's vital point, but in this world, the risk is proportional to the reward, as long as these difficulties are broken, Li Ru believes that Dong Zhuo will be able to soar to the sky and win the world, as long as Dong Zhuo can win all the way, these styles are not styles.
What really chilled Li Ru's heart was what was Li Xuan's purpose? Standing on a hostile position, these words coming out of Li Xuan's mouth obviously had a greater impact on Dong Zhuo than coming out of his own mouth, just looking at Dong Zhuo's solemn look, he knew that Dong Zhuo had begun to pay attention to these issues, at this point, Li Ru had to thank Li Xuan, but the other party said the purpose of these words, Li Ru did not understand.
wants to take refuge in Dong Zhuo.
It doesn't look like it, from beginning to end, no matter in tone or demeanor, Li Xuan has put himself and Dong Zhuo on the same level to talk.
If there is another picture, what is the picture? Li Ru couldn't think through it, so he was even more afraid, among the people he faced in the past, Li Ru was able to roughly grasp the other party's mind, so as to find a flaw to defeat it, but the person in front of him seemed to be thinking about Dong Zhuo, but Li Ru had a feeling that the other party's purpose was by no means so simple, this person was an enemy rather than a friend, with this cognition, other things would be easy to do.
"Ji Hou is not only good at fighting, this insight is beyond the reach of ordinary people, since Ji Hou can see the lack of Taishi, I think there is a solution?" Li Ru smiled and stepped forward, bowing his hand to Li Xuan, looking like he was asking for advice.
"Nope." Li Xuan replied very dryly.
Belch......
Not only Li Ru, Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu were also stunned, and said so much with emotion, are they all entertaining us?
"I didn't say that I would be loyal to the Taishi, the future of the Taishi, since the husband should worry about it, what does it have to do with me?" Li Xuan said very irresponsibly.
"Then I don't know why the thistle is here?" Looking at Li Xuan's appearance that he didn't care about himself, Li Ru felt that his gums were a little itchy, and he had an urge to bite something.
"Without him, I came this time to take away King Hongnong and the Queen Mother!" Li Xuan said bluntly.
"Impossible!" Li Ru and Dong Zhuo roared almost at the same time.
"Don't be too busy saying no." Li Xuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Taishi thinks that it is the best choice to leave the mother and son of King Hongnong here?" ”
Pointing to Wu Qiong's corpse, Li Xuan said indifferently: "Let's not talk about the restless little guy in the palace, now in Luoyang City and even in the whole world, how many people are waiting for the Taishi to make a mistake?" If it weren't for the fact that General Ben happened to arrive today, the mother and son of King Hongnong might have been killed, and the Taishi would know the consequences? ”
Dong Zhuo's face sank like water, looked at Li Xuan, and said coldly: "The old man has never ordered the poisoning of King Hongnong, and he has no idea about this matter!" ”
"I believe that." Li Xuan nodded seriously and said, "But will others believe it?" As long as King Hongnong has an accident in Luoyang, in the eyes of the world, it is you Dong Zhuo who is secretly harming, not whether you want to, but someone who needs this name, even if the little guy in the palace has great ability, if there is no one to help him in secret, what ability can you do to kill your brother under your nose? ”
"King Hongnong is left in the hands of Taishi, you can't kill it, you have to bother to protect it, those who are hiding in the shadows can't move you Dong Taishi, but if you want to assassinate this pair of mother and son who have lost power, it is a simple thing."
After slowing down, Li Xuan smiled and said: "I know that the Taishi left King Hongnong behind, the purpose is to deter that little hairy child, and at the same time to prevent other princes from fighting against you in the name of King Hongnong, but as long as King Hongnong is in Luoyang for a day, the intrigues and tricks of those people will continue to fall on the head of King Hongnong, who can hide once, but may not be able to hide ten times and hundreds of times, this general thinks that it will be a good choice to send King Hongnong out." ”
"But why did I give it to you?" Dong Zhuo snorted coldly: "Which of the princes of the world doesn't want it?" ”
"Because you can only give it to me!" Li Xuan smiled.
"How do you guarantee that you won't turn around against the old man in the name of King Hongnong?" Dong Zhuo said coldly.
"No guarantees." Li Xuan shook his head and said: "But at least, within two to three years, General Ben will not be able to use King Hongnong to do anything, and he will not be able to risk the world's condemnation if he is not under the Emperor Dong!" ”
"Humph!" Dong Zhuo's face turned dark, he snorted coldly, looked at Li Xuan coldly and said, "But what good is it for the old man to hand over the mother and son of King Hongnong to you?" ”
"At the very least, Dong Taishi can get a potential ally." Li Xuan said with a smile.
"Oh?" Dong Zhuo's eyes lit up, he looked at Li Xuan and said, "Are you willing to support the old man?" ”
"No, no, no, don't misunderstand." Li Xuan waved his hand, looked at Dong Zhuo and smiled: "What I am talking about below is a potential ally, although the princes are forced by the military might of the Taishi and dare not resist, but secretly they will definitely not be reconciled, I expect that it will not be long before there will be a big battle, I will participate in it, and when the time is right, I can share some information with the Taishi." ”
Li Ru's eyes lit up when he heard this, and there was some movement in his eyes when he looked at Li Xuan.
"But how can the old man believe you?" Dong Zhuo snorted coldly.
"General Ben now, but he can't come up with any strong evidence, but for Taishi, this is a gamble, and losing to Taishi is only a loss of the insignificant, but somewhat hot Hongnong Wang Mother and Son, and the benefits that can be obtained by winning, I don't think I need to say, Taishi can also think of it, right?" Li Xuan said with a smile.
"Okay, I promise you!" Dong Zhuo is obviously an out-and-out gambler, and he didn't hesitate for too long, so he agreed, just like Li Xuan said, this matter, even if Li Xuan is discredited, there is no loss to him, if Li Xuan can keep his promise, then for Dong Zhuo, it is a spy with a lot of weight among the princes.
