The east is white, and the dawn is approaching.

The fire in the palace had been extinguished, and in the morning light, it looked like a ruined group.

The fire was large, but it was discovered in time, so the main structure was not damaged. Wisps of green smoke floated up from the fire, scattered in the air, and disappeared without a trace.

In the square, there are attendants cleaning, washing the blood stains on the steps with water.

Corpses were neatly arranged in the center of the square, surrounded by groups of swordsmen and halberders, describing nervous solemnity.

Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial city of Luoyang has experienced many hardships.

However, in a situation like last night, an assassin entered the palace, but unaware of it, and even set fire to the palace...... Thinking about it carefully, except for the rebellion of the Ten Standing Servants, it was the first time in 200 years that outsiders had invaded Miyagi.

Dong Zhuo's face sank like water, and he stood with his hands in his hands.

It was only when he was woken up in his sleep that he learned the news of the fire in Ago.

He didn't even bother to change his clothes, he hurried barefoot and with his hair scattered, but he only saw the mess in front of him.

"Didn't you have a single living mouth left?"

"Back to Xiangguo, these assassins are by no means ordinary assassins, more like dead soldiers."

"Dead?"

Dong Zhuo's eyebrows furrowed, and his eyes sparkled.

If they are assassins, most of them are some rangers.

But if it is a dead man, there must be someone behind it.

The trees want to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop! It seems that in this Luoyang City, some people don't want to see him gain a firm foothold. Although he had already made such preparations, he didn't expect the other party to be so frustrated and actually do this kind of thing to assassinate the king......

That shows that the other party's plan is very big, and I am afraid that it is beyond his imagination.

"A total of one hundred and eighty-seven people, why did they enter the palace city silently, but the soldiers and horses of the three gates of the South Palace, as well as the swordsmen and halberders in the palace city, did not notice it? Li Ru, check for me, if you can't find the murderer behind this scene, you can bring me to see me. ”

"Whoa!"

At this time, Li Ru dared to refuse.

When he received the order, he turned and walked out.

"That...... What is that Nangong Guard Order called? ”

"Hui Xiangguo, his name is Ding Chen."

"Has Ding Chen ever woken up?"

"Xiangguo, he hasn't woken up yet, he's still in a coma."

Dong Zhuo heard this, nodded, but didn't say anything, but walked down the steps and came to the corpses.

"I heard that he killed more than seventy assassins last night?"

"Exactly."

"It's a fierce general...... I remember when I first recommended him, I was full of praise for him.

I thought that Feng Xian had a heart of love for talents, and it was inevitable that there would be some exaggeration in his words. Now it seems that what he said is true. ”

Speaking of this, Dong Zhuo suddenly turned around.

"Wen Yuan, do you think it's possible that he colluded with others to stage a bitter trick?"

Such a big thing happened, and Luoyang was inevitably panicked.

As Lu Bu, who was in charge of Jinwu, he led his troops to patrol the city, so at this time, it was Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan who followed Dong Zhuo.

Zhang Liao was also born in the state army, and returned to Dong Zhuo with Lu Bu.

His position is not as high as Lu Bu, but when it comes to status, there is no need for Lu Bu to be low.

After all, Zhang Liao is also from a famous family, and he was a general under Ding Yuan's account before. In terms of force, he may not be as brave as Lu Bu, but Dong Zhuo attaches great importance to him. In addition to Lu Bu, the state army is respected by Zhang Liao. Even if it is Cao Xing, it is much inferior to Zhang Liao. And Dong Zhuo also likes to let Zhang Liao follow left and right.

"Bitter Meat Trick?"

Zhang Liao was stunned, then shook his head and said: "What Xiangguo said is indeed reasonable.

However, Liao thought that Ding Chen should have nothing to do with this matter. After he took up the position of Nangong Guard, he lived in seclusion and never intersected with anyone. On weekdays, he is either at home with his sister, or on duty in the palace, leading the troops to practice together.

The last general had asked the Nangong guards on duty before.

He came in the evening to hand over to Gao Shun, and then went through the roster in the guard's room, and only left the guard's room with two servants around the clock and patrolled around. This is a very dedicated person, and the last general also found the corpses of his two servants in the palace gate. Judging from the scene, he did not enter the class room at all. ”

With all his heart, he scratched Dong Zhuo's itch.

He pondered for a moment, but the conversation suddenly changed: "Concubine Tang is okay?" ”

Concubine Tang is fine, but she still looks shocked.

The last general asked her two sentences, although some preambles did not match the afterword, but the last general still heard some clues.

According to Concubine Tang, she talked with King Hongnong for a while last night, and about the time before, King Hongnong was ready to rest. Who knew that someone suddenly broke into the main hall, killed the attendant on duty in the main hall, and coerced King Hongnong to hand over the jade seal of the country. But King Hongnong didn't know where the jade seal of the country was, so the murderer was ruthless and wanted to kill King Chen Hongnong.

She rushed over to protect King Hongnong, but was knocked unconscious by the murderers......"

Dong Zhuo nodded as he listened.

This Zhang Liao is really a careful person, and he knows what he will ask, so he investigated it early.

From this point of view, Lu Bu is a cut worse than Zhang Liao.

However, Dong Zhuo just likes Lu Bu, and between the two, he obviously relies on Lu Bu more.

"Found it!"

After Zhang Liao finished speaking, Dong Zhuo was ready to speak.

But at this moment, I suddenly heard a voice in the hall of Age, "I have found the body of King Hongnong!" ”

When Dong Zhuo heard this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and immediately gave up Zhang Liao, turned around and rushed into the main hall.

"Where?"

He asked.

A guard hurriedly pointed to a corpse that was charred so black that it couldn't even be seen clearly and said, "This corpse is next to the dragon bed, it must be King Hongnong." In this hall, a total of nine corpses were found, and the other eight corpses were obviously eunuchs, but this corpse was intact. ”

Dong Zhuo covered his mouth and nose with a cloth and walked over to take a closer look.

To be honest, he didn't know much about Liu Wei, the king of Hongnong, and the corpse had been burned like charcoal, so he couldn't tell that he was fat or thin at all. Overall, the height is about the same, it should be Liu Bian, the king of Hongnong......

Thinking of this, he crouched down to take a closer look.

But at this moment, a call came from outside the main hall: "The emperor has arrived." ”

Dong Zhuo hurriedly stood up and turned to look.

A young man, surrounded by a group of chamberlains and guards, walked in from the outside.

He is not very old, and he is extremely handsome, with bright eyes and bright teeth.

It's just that the eyes are slightly narrow and long, and the lips are a little thin, giving people a feeling of meanness and gratitude.

When the boy entered the main hall, he burst into tears.

"Imperial brother, imperial brother, why did you leave?"

This young man is the Han Emperor Liu Xie.

Although Liu Xie was like a puppet, he was completely overtaken by Dong Zhuo.

But in front of people, Dong Zhuo still had to abide by the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, stepped forward quickly, bowed down and said, "The old minister sees Your Majesty." ”

"Xiangguo, my brother ......"

Liu Xie choked up and couldn't speak.

Dong Zhuo said: "Your Majesty mourns, the body of King Hongnong has been found. ”

"Take me to see it."

Without waiting for Dong Zhuo to finish speaking, Liu Xie suddenly stopped crying and said in a deep voice.

He wasn't very old, and his voice sounded a little childish. However, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but feel a chill in his back.

A child born in the emperor's family, even if it is a child, which one is good at it?

However, Dong Zhuo didn't care, but smiled slightly: "In that case, please come with your majesty." ”

As he spoke, he took Liu Xie to the charred corpse and stopped.

"Brother!"

Seeing the corpse, Liu Xie cried loudly.

He cried very emotionally, without the slightest imperial demeanor.

The more he cried, the more sad he became, and the people on the side couldn't help but feel slightly sour in their hearts.

Dong Zhuo whispered comfort on the side, and it took a long time for Liu Xie to stop crying.

"Your Majesty's Day condolences, don't cry and break your body...... Come, send Your Majesty back to the palace to rest. From now on, the guards of the North Palace will be strengthened, and anyone entering or leaving the palace must be recorded first. If anyone enters or leaves without permission, he will be punished as treason. ”

Liu Xie sobbed and nodded in agreement.

As he walked, he looked back from time to time, revealing a sense of reluctance.

However, when he walked out of the gate of Ah Ge Palace and boarded the car that had been waiting outside, the sadness on his face suddenly disappeared.

"Spread the word to my father, that is not dead."

The voice is still immature, but it sounds chilling.

When the chamberlain on the side heard this, he was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "How does Your Majesty know?" ”

"I just know!

If you want to get out in this way, it's also smart.

It's a pity that the jade seal of the country does not appear for a day, if he does not die, I will not be able to feel at ease. Knowing from his father, he must be hiding in the city. ”

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

"This kid, it's not easy!"

After sending Liu Xie away, Dong Zhuo ordered someone to collect the corpse and return to the square.

In his heart, he muttered, showing a thoughtful expression.

"Sangkook."

Zhang Liao stepped forward and said in a low voice, "I found some clues. ”

"What clues?"

"Xiangguo, please come with me."

Zhang Liao led the way in front, led Dong Zhuo to a corpse, and stopped. He crouched down and lifted the corpse's clothes, revealing a pale chest.

"Can Xiang Guo see it?"

"Huh?"

Dong Zhuo's gaze suddenly froze.

He leaned down and looked at the corpse's chest.

On the chest, there is a very strange figure.

"What does that mean?"

Zhang Liao covered the corpse's clothes again, stood up, and whispered in Dong Zhuo's ear: "Xiangguo, this is a halberd warrior." ”

"Euphorbia?"

"Back then, when General Mo was serving under Ding Jianyang's account, I heard him talk about the powerful families in the DPRK and China.

When mentioning the Yuan clan in Runan, Ding Thorn Shi said: The private soldiers in the world are the leaders of the Yuan Men Euphorbia, and the three thousand Euphorbia are invincible.

This halberd warrior is the private soldier of the Yuan clan in Runan, and only the Yuan clan is the head of the horse.

In addition to this person, there were more than twenty people, all of whom had the emblem of the Euphorbia. And of these people, eight of them died at the hands of Ding Chen, and the remaining more than ten people all died in battle, and none of them surrendered, which is definitely a well-deserved death. ”

When Dong Zhuo heard Zhang Liao's words, his eyes suddenly revealed a terrifying murderous intent!
