At this time, a guard ran to Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo asked eagerly, "But find out who did it?" ”

"Taishi, the two little eunuchs in charge of delivering meals are missing!"

He Lian on the side waved her hand and said: "Go to the wells and ponds everywhere to check, those two little eunuchs must have been wiped out, this kind of thing, I have seen a lot in the palace!" If you really don't have it, go check and check, who can leave the palace tonight, especially if you go out of the city to the north, anyway, there are only a few places! It's just that even if the body is found, it won't help, the dead won't speak! ”

This guard commander is the captain of the personal soldier team brought by Dong Zhuo from Xiliang, he is relatively clever, and he speaks Chinese well. He Lian said casually, but the guard was in a cold sweat when he heard it, thinking that the palace was such a sacred place, but listening to the queen mother's meaning, it seemed that people were often killed and thrown into wells, ponds, or corpses in the wilderness. It seems that you really have to be careful when mixing in the palace in the future! Otherwise, it's not good to be killed and thrown out to feed the wolves!

An hour later, when it was already past midnight, Zhang Zhongjing let out a long sigh of relief while hammering his waist, ignoring the imperial doctor who was watching coldly there, and walked straight out of the house, while Dong Zhuo and He Lian, who were anxiously waiting in the other room, also rushed to ask after hearing the news: "Doctor Zhongjing, is the poison cured?" ”

Zhang Zhongjing shook his head: "Go back to the Queen Mother!" Her Royal Highness the Princess is fine, and she will recover after only a few days of rest; But His Royal Highness King Chen Liu was not optimistic, the dose of poison he took was too large, enough to poison more than two cows! In the next year, I can only hang his life first, and then find a good way to detoxify! ”

He Lian and Dong Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, Liu Xuan was fine, otherwise he would really not be able to explain to Zhuang Shaoyou. And for He Lian, the current result couldn't be better! Liu Xie's death is the best! In this way, Liu Hong's lineage is only Liu Bian! The throne is much more secure! Thinking of this, He Lian was secretly a little proud, rolled her eyes, and said:

"So there is Dr. Lao Zhongjing! Come on, reward, and send Dr. Zhongjing home! ”

When Zhang Zhongjing heard this, he was stunned: "Go home? Queen Mother, the poison of His Royal Highness King Chen Liuwang has not been 。。。。。。 ”

He Lian shook her head: "There is no need for Dr. Zhongjing to worry about this matter, it is a great luck to be able to save the princess's life!" King Chen Liu, just leave it to fate! After speaking, he glared at Zhang Zhongjing fiercely, his face full of threat.

Zhang Zhongjing was taken aback by He Lian, and his heart was very entangled, he is also an official, although he is very bad in officialdom, but such a simple truth is still understood, obviously the Queen Mother does not want King Chen Liuwang to be rescued, from a doctor's point of view, this is intolerable, but this matter is obviously not something that a small doctor can interfere with, it's just! Leave it to fate!

Seeing Zhang Zhongjing leave, He Lian's pupils shrank, and he didn't know what he was thinking, Dong Zhuo on the side said:

"Beauty, can you inform Zhuang Shaoyou? This matter has made a lot of noise, and it can't be hidden! ”

……

In the Rong Mansion, before he could figure out the reason for Dong Zhuojun's change, a little eunuch came to the palace.

After receiving the news, Zhuang Shaoyou was furious at that time, no wonder Dong Zhuojun moved, it turned out that such a big thing happened, and he was worried that Zhuang Shaoyou would have a violent reaction here, and he was preparing in advance!

"Wen Qian! Command the whole army to assemble at once! Go to the palace with General Ben in a quarter of an hour! ”

When Le Jin heard this, he hesitated a little to carry out the order, but was stopped by Xun Yu on the side

"The general is angry! It's a strange thing, and it's best not to act rashly until you figure out why! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou snorted coldly: "He Lian, this woman is the most vicious, don't think much about this matter, nine out of ten are her doing, even if it is not, she will definitely not be able to get out of it!" ”

Xun You didn't give up, and then persuaded: "General, He Lian controls the palace, if she wants the princess and King Chen Liu to die, there is no need to be so troublesome!" Isn't the princess saved now? ”

"It's definitely her! The person she wants to kill is not the princess at all, but King Chen Liu! ”

When everyone heard this, they all stopped talking, for Zhuang Shaoyou, Chen Liuwang Liu Xie is a very important part of the future plan! If King Chen Liuwang has three longs and two shorts, then it doesn't make much sense to marry Liu Xuan!

A quarter of an hour later, Zhuang Shaoyou's 23,000 soldiers finished the whole army, 3,000 cavalry stationed outside the city, directly led by Wu Kuang after receiving the order, detoured from outside the city to the west gate, and 10,000 veterans and 10,000 recruits were lined up separately, the recruits had just been trained for more than half a month, and they were barely able to complete the arrangement, and they basically had no combat experience, and their weapons and equipment were much inferior to those of veterans, so the pioneers were naturally served by veterans.

Although Zhuang Shaoyou was angry, he still maintained a considerable composure in his head, and he was not carried away by anger, it is estimated that the possibility of doing it today is not too great, as long as it is properly deployed, it may be possible to solve the problem peacefully. It is obviously impossible to kill He Lian, but we must not let her go so easily, we are not soft eggplants in the pot, whoever wants to pinch them can pinch them!

Zhuang Shaoyou's army moved very fast, when the defenders of the West Garden were still waiting for Dong Zhuo's order, Wu Kuang's three thousand iron cavalry and the two thousand vanguard infantry in the city had been killed, all of them were dressed in simple bows, and the action was extremely fast, Dong Zhuo's defenders at the West Gate were only five hundred, and under the combination of soft and hard Zhuang Shaoyou's army, Dong Zhuo's five hundred men and horses were disarmed, took over the West City Gate, and completely blocked the West Garden army outside the city.

The Xiyuan Army, which was still waiting for the order, soon received the news of the loss of the West Gate, stationed outside the city was Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu, who was still calm, and was not reckless enough to wave the army to attack the West Gate directly, and after a little thought, he decisively ordered, the infantry confronted Zhuang Shaoyou at the West Gate, and did not attack for the time being, and five thousand iron cavalry detoured to the North Gate to reinforce the palace, although it would take more time, but there were also tens of thousands of defenders in the palace, and Lu Bu's Bingzhou army also had a force inside, which would not be conquered for a while. And the likelihood of a real fight is not too great.

At the same time, Zhuang Shaoyou led a large army to the gate of the palace. The defenders of the city gate are Lu Bu's men, and the guards are Gao Shun! Like Lejin, Gao Shun is also a professional soldier with a strict style, although he is very dissatisfied with Lu Bu sending him to guard the door, he is still dutiful.

The main entrance of the palace and the walls of the palace were full of potholes, like a giant hornet's nest, which was very scary. Gao Shun also sent someone to investigate carefully, but he was surprised, it turned out that this was the traces left by the ballista! And the owner of the ballista is Zhuang Shaoyou's subordinates!

Gao Shun has nothing to do these days, thinking about the battle formation, assuming that Zhuang Shaoyou comes to attack the palace for some reason, then what should he do? There were still a lot of soldiers who participated in that battle in Luoyang, Gao Shun didn't make much effort to extract a lot of information from their mouths, those soldiers were obviously frightened by that battle, and they still have lingering palpitations when they mention it, and there is obviously an exaggeration when describing it, but Gao Shun is not easy to fool, it is easy to judge the approximate combat strength of Zhuang Shaoyou's army, and the result is very surprising!

Unexpectedly, the assumption of a few days ago has now become a reality, Zhuang Shaoyoujun is already close at hand, although he doesn't know what happened above, but looking at the other party's posture, he is obviously not ready to be good! Under the dark moonlight, a large area of Zhuang Shaogu's army under the city was pressed by black, and the preliminary judgment was at least more than 10,000!

This is obviously the main force of Zhuang Shaoyou's army, Gao Shun is also a little numb after seeing it, the palace gate guards are just a decoration, the number is only five hundred, there is a military camp not far away, there are three thousand people in it, but if you really want to fight, you can barely meet the scene! Gao Shun sighed while carefully observing Zhuang Shaoyou's arrangement:

"Sure enough, it lives up to its name! What a lion in the world! It's better than my state military horses! No wonder that night was only a short contact, and he was able to destroy hundreds of soldiers under the command of Song Xian and Hou Cheng, which was really sharp! ”

Gao Shun is also a veteran of the battle formation, mature and calm, although surprised by the combat power of Zhuang Shaogu's army, but there is no timidity, decisively ordered his troops to arrange the formation, leaving only the sword and shield hand in the city, and the rest of the soldiers all withdrew below. Because Gao Shun has basically figured out the characteristics of the ballista, although the power is great, but the launch interval is obviously very long, that is, the first round of attacks is sharper, and after the first round, it is much easier to do later!

However, Gao Shun is not a brainless reckless man, even if he wants to fight, he has to figure out what he is fighting for, and he can't fight clearly, so he immediately stood at the highest point of the city wall and shouted to Zhuang Shaoyoujun on the opposite side:

"The last general and the state Gao Shun, I have seen the general, I don't know what the general is so busy late at night, what is the so-called thing?"

When Zhuang Shaoyou heard this, he was slightly stunned, this goalkeeper turned out to be Gao Shun? But I don't have time to sigh, today is not a pull! Whoever he is!

"General Ben is here to ask for an explanation from He Lian's mother-in-law! If he couldn't see He Lian within a quarter of an hour, General Ben began to attack the city! If you are offended, you can also hope that General Gao Haihan! ”

When Gao Shun heard this, he was very surprised, He Lian's mother-in-law? Who is He Lian? Yes! Dowager! This great general is too bold, isn't he? actually called the queen mother mother-in-law?

A moment later, He Lian received the news, although Gao Shun directly said those disrespectful words and omitted them, He Lian was still annoyed: "Damn Zhuang Shaoyou!" He's going to rebel! Don't go! Let him attack the city! The old lady wants to see if he really dares or not! ”

Dong Zhuo hurriedly hugged He Lian and persuaded: "Don't be angry, beauty, don't you just go and explain!" If something happens to you in Zhuang Shaoyou's territory, my old Dong will definitely not be kind to him! Go ahead, it's better to settle the grievances than to settle them! Explain that there will be no shortage of meat! ”

When He Lian heard Dong Zhuo's comforting words, her anger subsided a little, but she said: "As the queen mother, how can the mourning family condescend to see him? If you want to see the mourning family, let him enter the palace! ”

When Dong Zhuo heard this, he anxiously persuaded: "Aren't you a strong man?" No one would have come in at this time! ”

"No matter, no matter! If you want to go, I can't afford to lose that person anyway! ”

Dong Zhuo coaxed for a long time, but He Lian disagreed, so in desperation, he had to go in person!
