On September 3, Empress Dowager He was poisoned and died. Dong Zhuo did not allow the imperial court to hold a funeral for the Empress Dowager, but asked the little emperor Liu Xie to express his condolences in the Fengchang Pavilion in Luoyang City, and the ministers wore white clothes to the court for three days. However, how can the death of the Empress Dowager be concealed from the people of the world? It won't be long before Luoyang is already full of vegetarians! Although Dong Zhuo didn't know who did it, he didn't have the slightest way, but just sent some more secret posts in the city, for fear of any accidents.

On this day, Tian Chou took his son Liu He to Luoyang City together, and he was encountering a scene full of vegetarian food. Even if the emperor dies, it can't be so grand? As soon as the two inquired, they learned that the Empress Dowager He had also fallen ill in the palace recently. Liu He immediately wept bitterly, and before Tian Chou could dissuade him, he was stopped by a sentry, and they were about to capture and detain the two.

Tian Chou had to show his identity to avoid more trouble. But one of the people in the group came out, and saw that this person was born with sharp-beaked monkey gills, and there was no flesh on his face. However, he said that he was Li Ru, a strategist under Captain Dong, and this person was going to take the two of them to see Captain Dong. Tian Chou knew that Li Ru was the advisor of Dong Zhuo of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, but he hadn't heard that Dong Zhongying had been promoted to a captain? A few months ago, Emperor Han Ling wanted to pass on this position to the lord, but now it has been replaced by Dong Zhuo?

Li Ru got on the horse to lead the way, and the two had to get on the horse and follow, surrounded by the sentry men and horses, and rushed to the Taiwei Mansion together. How does this Dong Taiwei Mansion look like a barracks? There are all generals inside and out, especially the only general who guards outside the mansion, he is really majestic, handsome and extraordinary! Why is the red horse under his crotch so magical? It's unforgettable!

It can be seen that this Dong Taiwei also has no sense of security in the capital, why did he rise so quickly? The two were naturally very puzzled. In the hall, I saw a fierce man with a short figure, but a waist width of ten girths, and a face full of meat, but he was bowed down by Li Ru and called the lord. Then he introduced Tian Chou and Liu He to this fierce man.

I saw that this person began to smile, looked at Tian Chou and Liu He and said, "Dare to ask Liu Gongzi, Tian Shicong, is Da Sima good?" I Dong Zhongying has admired Liu Yu's name for a long time, but I have never seen it, I have been fascinated for a long time, disrespectful, disrespectful! ”

Gongzi Liu He hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute, and replied: "Mrs. Dong, my father is in good health, thank you for your concern." His old man was just very worried about the affairs of the court, so he specially ordered me Liu He to come to the capital to inquire about the news. Would you like to ask Mrs. Dong to inform me about the affairs of the capital? I'd better return it as soon as possible so that my family doesn't have to worry about it. ”

Dong Zhuo said: "Everything is fine in the court, and there is Lao Da Sima who is worried." Since Liu Gongzi is here, then he will accompany me into the court for a while, and how about meeting him today? I believe that Da Sima is also worried about the safety of His Majesty the Emperor, so I asked Liu Gongzi and Tian Shicong to follow me into the palace to see each other. ”

Liu He hurriedly said: "Taiwei Dong said that he was joking, I, Liu He, am only from filial piety, how can I meet Your Majesty?" If the captain is busy with official business, please ask the captain to go first, and the little nephew and our master and servant will avoid it for the time being, and it will not be too late for the two of us to visit the captain again another day. ”

Dong Zhuo said: "It's okay, it's okay! Since Liu Gongzi has no official position and no position, he will enter the palace with me today and ask for an official position. Originally, I also wanted to ask His Majesty to invite the Great Sima Liu Yu to return to Beijing to take office? Nowadays, there are a lot of things to do in the capital, and I really can't leave Da Sima! Since it is Liu Gongzi who is here, he should naturally meet His Majesty with me! Tian Shicong, are you willing to stay in the capital as an official together? ”

Tian Chou bowed and saluted and said: "Taiwei said that I laughed, I, Tian Chou, was born as the lord Liu Yu's person, and died as the ghost of the Liu family, and there will be no one who will be the lord in this life." No matter how good this capital is, it is not a place where Liu Yu lives for a long time. When I come here to see it, I will return to Youzhou and tell my lord what I have seen and heard here. ”

Dong Zhuo and Li Ru looked at Tian Chou again, and Dong Zhuo immediately laughed and said: "Tian Shi is really a believer, and a certain family loves it very much!" If you can change your mind during this period in Beijing, how about I, Dong Zhuo, accept you as my personal thing? If you don't have to answer the questions, think about it first. Come on! The whole vehicle is ready, summon a sentry of people, led by my son, all of you together, just follow me into the palace! ”

After a while, the car was ready, Dong Zhuo invited Liu and Gongzi to get in the car and enter the palace together, Liu He refused to get into the car, he was only willing to ride a horse to follow. In this way, everyone went to Luoyang City together, and Tian Chou did not leave Liu He an inch. That meaning couldn't be more obvious, he just let his son Liu He rest assured that he would not betray the Liu family no matter what.

When the car arrived in Luoyang City, the little yellow gate in the city saw that it was Mrs. Dong's car, how dare not open the door to greet him? Dong Zhuo, surrounded by Lu Bu and his personal guards, came to the front of the Chongde Palace, and Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty had been invited by other little eunuchs. Accompanied by Lu Bu, Li Ru and others, Dong Taiwei entered the Chongde Hall together, and at this time, Emperor Han Xian was already sitting on the dragon chair.

Dong Zhuo swaggered to the hall, and Lu Bu, Li Ru and others knelt down in front of the hall together, shouted three long live, and worshipped upward. After the hall was heard to be exempt from courtesy, they got up and entered the main hall. And Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty had already ordered someone to move a chair next to the Long Shu case and let him sit down.

Dong Zhuo looked at Liu He and Tian Chou, who entered the main hall and lowered his head to follow, and did not squint and were sincerely afraid, and said with a smile: "Emperor Qiqi, the minister has found Liu He, the son of the great Sima Liu Yu, and he came to Luoyang City on behalf of the great Sima to visit His Majesty." As far as I know, Liu Gongzi only has filial piety and honesty, and he doesn't have an official position, how can this work? Today, Liu Gongzi came to meet His Majesty, I don't know what kind of official position the Holy Lord intends to give him? ”

I only heard a boy's voice in the hall say: "Taiwei Dong, what kind of official position do you think Liu He should be sealed?" ”

Dong Zhuo stood up with a big grin and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Liu He is young and promising, and he shouldn't bury such talents. Since the saint is destined today, let's make him a servant, so that he Liu He can stay in Luoyang and always accompany His Majesty. If there is something to be consulted, you can consult him, and you can get closer and closer to Lord Liu Yu, Your Majesty, what do you think? ”

The Tong Yin paused for a moment, thinking that he was observing the people in the hall, and then spoke: "According to the words of the Taiwei, it is good to seal Liu He as a servant, and order him to serve me in the palace." Liu He, don't you kneel down to thank you? When? ”

Liu He didn't expect that he followed Dong Zhuo to the palace, not only met His Majesty the Emperor, but also was canonized as a servant, which was really like a pie in the sky, and luck couldn't stop it. Liu He hurriedly knelt on the ground again, kowtowed again and again in the direction of the dragon book case, and said, "Thank you, Lord Longen!" Thank you, Lord Longne! In this life, Chen Liu and he will not dare to live up to His Majesty! ”

Tong Yin, who was in the direction of the dragon chair, spoke again: "Liu and you will talk to me, if Aiqing has time, you can come to Luoyang City during this time and chat with me." I miss Da Sima Liu Yu very much, I don't know if he is good in Youzhou? How is the body? Are you healthy? ”

Liu He hurriedly got up and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for remembering my father, he is an old man who is in good health, and he deals with government affairs in Youzhou all day long, so he really has no time to come to the capital." The minister will definitely come to Luoyang City to chat with His Majesty, and tell the emperor what his father did in Youzhou one by one, so that His Majesty can rest assured about the affairs of Northern Xinjiang. Jia Yan is also concerned about His Majesty's body, and he can't wait to come to Luoyang in person to meet the emperor. ”

The Tong Yin on the dragon book case said: "I once met Da Sima with my father. He promised his father that he would defend the northern frontier for his father, and when there was no more fighting, he would come back and talk with his father about life again! It's a pity that my father is gone, and they will never see each other again......"

Dong Zhuo said: "Since this is the case, Your Majesty will draft a holy decree and order someone to send it to Youzhou, and ask Lord Liu Yu and Liu to go to Beijing to report on his work." Although Youzhou is an important frontier area, after the governance of Lord Liu, it has begun to take shape, and it is believed that it is the same managed by Gongsun Zhan. If Lord Liu comes back, it will be the same as the wine and night talk with His Majesty, and their father and son will be in the same palace, which can also be used as a good story, what does Your Majesty think? ”

The Tong Yin was stunned for a moment before saying, "Quasi-play, early tomorrow morning, I will bother Mrs. Dong to find someone to help draft a holy decree." It was written that he invited the great Sima Liu Yu to come to the capital to report on his work, and informed Uncle Liu that his son Liu He was already in the official residence here. ”

Dong Zhuo said: "The minister's decree, early tomorrow morning, the minister will recruit someone to prepare the holy decree, and then ask His Majesty to use the seal." In this way, we can send Xiao Huangmen to Youzhou and invite Lord Liu to report on my work in the palace.

This Liu He once said to Weichen that he still wanted to worship the Empress Dowager He, I don't know if His Majesty has time, and is willing to take him to Fengchang Pavilion to worship the Empress Dowager He? ”

I only heard that the child's voice suddenly sped up and said: "Liu Shizhong, the Empress Dowager He has passed the first seven, and it is not in line with the ceremony for you to come to worship again, so you don't have to come to Fengchang Pavilion to worship in person!"

Where do you stay in Luoyang City now? You can't eat and live with Mrs. Dong for a long time, right? Do I need to give you a mansion? ”

Dong Zhuo said: "Your Majesty is worried, Liu Shizhong's mansion, I will go back in a while, and I will arrange a place for him for the minister." Including all the things used in the house, the old minister is ready to stop for him. ”

Liu He hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, he was already sweating at this time, and he hurriedly said: "I know for the minister, if the court is early tomorrow, the minister will come to the court again to meet Your Majesty!" ”

The boy ordered Liu He to get up, stepped aside, and stopped talking. Dong Zhuo and Taiwei Dong next to him saw that the matter had been done, and he also made Emperor Han Xian leave a bad impression on Liu He. He got up and said, "Your Majesty, since there is nothing to do, let's all go back to the house first." Liu Shizhong's residence will be arranged by the ministers, so Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about it. ”

The Tong Yin on the dragon book case said: "Then everything will be done by Captain Lao Dong, and I will be tired, so I will go back to the palace to rest first." ”

When Liu He and Tian Chou were about to go back, they peeked at the dragon chair, and there was only a child sitting on it. That kid is only eight or nine years old, and at a glance, he knows that he is just a microphone, and the canonization of civil and military officials obviously has to be approved by Dong Zhuo before he can make a decision!

Everyone followed Dong Taiwei out of the Chongde Palace, everyone got on the horse together, Dong Zhuo got into the car, and a mighty group of people left the palace. After leaving Luoyang City, Tian Chou stopped Mrs. Dong's car and said, "Captain Qiqi, the villain and the son are looking for a place to live." As for the residence, there is no need to trouble the captain. ”

Dong Zhuo said on the car: "Li Ru, you can take Liu Shizhong and Tian Shi to see where they like those mansions, you can help arrange them, give them everything, and then go back to the mansion to find me." ”
