Chapter Thirty-Seven: Come, Show
In front of everyone's eyes, Niu Fu's face turned red, but he couldn't say a word.
The others saw it in their eyes and couldn't help him out of the siege.
Who made Jiahuaxiong make such a big contribution?
Hua Xiong had the upper hand, but he had no intention of stopping there.
He fully carried forward the spirit of Grandpa Mao's beating of the water dog, and looked at Niu Fu aggressively.
"If I'm not mistaken, someone just now said that he was going to eat Han Sui's head on the spot. Come on, show. β
Niu Fu only felt embarrassed.
The pain on his face was even hotter.
He never expected that Hua Xiong would send troops to attack Ma Teng in just two days, kill Han Sui, and return to the DPRK.
Complete the impossible!
So he had no words to refute Hua Xiong at all.
Niu Fu, who was originally arrogant, suddenly became weak, pitiful, and helpless.
He looked at the others for help.
But the others kept their heads down as if they hadn't seen it.
There was no way, Niu Fu had to look at Dong Zhuo hard.
Dong Zhuo stroked his forehead and felt a little headache.
Niu Fu ridiculed the most fiercely just now, and now he is slapped in the face, what can he do?
He was also helpless.
But Niu Fu is also his son-in-law, and he can't sit idly by.
"That, Hua Xiong," Dong Zhuo coughed lightly, "General Niu Fu said a little too much just now, I'll ask him to apologize to you, forget about this matter, do you think it's okay?" β
Hua Xiong snorted coldly.
"Since it was the Taishi who spoke, then of course I have to give this face."
"Niu Fu, don't hurry up and apologize to Huaxiong."
Dong Zhuo glared at Niu Fu.
Niu Fu walked out slowly, and reluctantly bowed to Hua Xiong.
"General Hua, I didn't choose my words just now, and I apologize to you."
Hua Xiong sneered, "Settle down in the future, otherwise I will hit you in the face every minute." β
Niu Fu's face was extremely pale, but he was helpless.
He gritted his teeth and retreated, his pupils almost erupting with fire.
Hua Xiong smiled faintly, as if he hadn't seen it.
"Huaxiong, you have made a great contribution, hold a court meeting tomorrow, and when the time comes, you will be rewarded in front of hundreds of civil and military officials."
Dong Zhuo smiled and revealed the matter.
"Thank you, Master!"
Hua Xiong arched his hand at Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo looked at him reproachfully, "You and me, do you need to be so polite?" β
When everyone present saw this scene, they knew that Hua Xiong was the big celebrity in front of Dong Zhuo at the moment.
Except for Niu Fu, Lu Bu and others, who were inseparable from Hua Xiong, the other generals of the Xiliang Army had different thoughts in their hearts.
β¦β¦
The next day's meeting.
Hundreds of civil and military officials gathered, and Emperor Liu Xie sat high on the dragon chair.
There is a separate bed next to it, which is specially prepared for Dong Zhuo, in order to show his status under one person and above ten thousand.
"Wang Situ, why did the Taishi suddenly hold a court meeting today?"
A civil official asked Wang Yun next to him with curiosity on his face.
He is Cai Yong, the left middle general of the imperial court.
"I don't know."
Wang Yun shook his head suspiciously
"The last time I convened a court meeting, it was because Ma Teng led the army to invade. This time it wasn't because Huaxiong was fighting against Ma Teng, what went wrong? β
Cai Yong guessed.
Wang Yun frowned, feeling that what he said made some sense.
Soon, Dong Zhuo swaggered into the palace under the escort of Lu Bu.
All the civil and military officials, even the emperor Liu Xie on the stage, stood up to welcome Dong Zhuo's arrival.
"Welcome to the Master!"
Dong Zhuo calmly accepted everyone's salutes.
Only after he sat down slowly on the bed did the others dare to sit down.
"You have been summoned today because of the conquest of Ma Teng."
Hearing this, Cai Yong couldn't help but glance at Wang Yun.
He knew that Hua Xiong had already made a marriage contract with Wang Yun's righteous daughter.
Although Wang Yun's face was calm, he couldn't help but worry about Hua Xiong in his heart.
Dong Zhuo nodded at the eunuch next to him.
The eunuch took a step forward and said in a sharp voice,
"Xuan Huaxiong enters the hall!"
Except for the high-level officials of the Xiliang Army, the other ministers were stunned.
Hua Xiong didn't send troops to recruit Ma Teng, why did he come back so soon?
Before everyone could react, Hua Xiong strode into the palace.
"Hua Xiong repelled Ma Teng's troops, beheaded Han Sui, served as a general of Fenwu, and canonized Wen Hou!"
Although what the eunuch announced was the holy decree of Emperor Liu Xie, everyone knew that this was what Dong Zhuo meant.
Yes?
Wang Yun and Cai Yong looked at each other, and they didn't react for a while.
They thought that Dong Zhuo was going to settle accounts with Hua Xiong, but they didn't expect that Hua Xiong would be canonized.
What they didn't expect was that Hua Xiong would defeat Ma Teng's army and even behead Han Sui in just a few days.
Lu Bu on the side looked at Hua Xiong's gaze, full of jealousy.
You must know that he does not have a knighthood now, but Hua Xiong has already served as a general of Fenwu and has a knighthood.
Hua Xiong couldn't help but laugh a little.
In history, after LΓΌ Bu assassinated Dong Zhuo, he was named Marquis of Wen by Emperor Liu Xie.
But he didn't expect that he would rob Lu Bu's name today and be named Wenhou by Dong Zhuo.
Thinking about being called Wenhou in the future, Hua Xiong couldn't help but feel a little weird.
"Wen Hou, why don't you take the order quickly?"
Dong Zhuo looked at Hua Xiong in a daze, and hurriedly reminded.
Hua Xiong came back to his senses and hurriedly took the holy decree.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Taishi for your kindness."
In addition to rewarding Wenxian to Huaxiong as a fiefdom, Huaxiong was also rewarded with a number of treasures.
A rich reward, which made the civil and military officials envious.
If Hua Xiong was in the imperial court before, he was just a small general.
From today onwards, he will be a hot big shot!
After the court meeting dispersed, Hua Xiong was stopped by Dong Zhuo at the door.
"Wen Hou, are you satisfied with our family's reward?" Dong Zhuo said with a smile.
The ancients paid attention to getting ahead and were keen on titles and treasures.
But Hua Xiong is a modern person, and he is not interested in these at all.
Although he didn't care about it in his heart, he still looked grateful on the surface.
"Thank you for your kindness!"
"Our family appreciates you, but you have to remember that everything you have is our family's reward for you, don't let our family down."
Dong Zhuo said this meaningfully.
Hua Xiong's heart sank, and he hurriedly expressed his loyalty.
"Don't worry, Huaxiong will never dare to betray the Taishi!"
"Hehe, we believe in you."
Dong Zhuo patted Hua Xiong's shoulder and took Lu Bu and the others away.
Looking at their backs, Hua Xiong breathed a sigh of relief.
Dong Zhuo is suspicious by nature.
Despite reusing himself now, there are still suspicions.
In time, I can't figure out that I will fall into the situation of Lu Bu in history.
You still have to plan ahead.
At this moment, Wang Yun walked over from the side with a smile.
"Congratulations to Wenhou, congratulations to Wenhou."
Hua Xiong came back to his senses and couldn't help laughing,
"Father-in-law, don't make fun of me."
