Chapter Seventy-One: Entering Beijing and Entering the Palace

At this time, Dong Zhuo was already on his way to Beijing.

Dong Zhuo and Yuan Kui rode side by side, while Cao Cao led the forbidden army to escort and led the way straight to Luoyang.

Cao Cao's face was indifferent, and his gaze swept around coldly.

On his left and right and behind him, there are Dong Zhuo's five hundred soldiers and horses, and these soldiers and horses will escort Dong Zhuo to Luoshui all the way.

Thinking about the experience of the past ten days, the murderous intent in Cao Cao's eyes flashed, and he hated: Sooner or later, I, Cao Cao, will kill all of you rebels!

In the carriage, Yuan Kui and Dong Zhuo sat opposite each other, swaying, looking at each other and smiling.

Yuan Kui rarely smiled, but in front of Dong Zhuo, he smiled and admired, and said, "Zhong Ying, what are your plans to enter Beijing this time?" ”

Zhong Ying, Dong Zhuo's words.

Dong Zhuo is fat and strong, with big eyes and a big nose, especially his lips are unusually ruddy, which is very eye-catching.

He hurriedly bowed down and said with a smile: "Zhuo Jiu is on the border, and he doesn't know the affairs of the capital, and he is really helpless to enter Beijing today, thanks to the protection of the Taifu." ”

Yuan Kui was still satisfied with Dong Zhuo's attitude, nodded lightly, and said: "The affairs of the capital are complex and changeable, if you enter Beijing as a captain, you will be the prime minister, and you need to participate a lot." ”

Dong Zhuo looked humble and said: "Zhuo only has the courage of a horseman, and he has no talent for great politics, and everything is respected by the head of the Taifu horse." ”

Yuan Kui had a little more smile on his face, no matter what Dong Zhuo thought in his heart, it was good to have his attitude, when he arrived in the capital, this Dong Zhuo had no relatives, no power and no power, who could he rely on if he didn't rely on the Yuan family?

The Yuan family had Dong Zhuo, a captain with a heavy army, by his side, and he acted much more obediently.

Thinking of the events in the capital during this time, Yuan Kui's smile slowly disappeared, his eyes looked at Dong Zhuo quietly, and said: "The court is preparing a new system, cutting most of Jiuqing's power and positions by half, and moving all of them to Shangshutai, what does Zhong Ying think?" ”

Dong Zhuo's face turned blank, and he said with a deep color: "Zhuo thinks that the system of Jiuqing is the law of the ancestors, how can it be easily changed?" There are many traitors and mediocre officials in the DPRK, and Your Majesty is afraid that he will be deceived, and he still needs to be put in order. ”

Yuan Kui was accustomed to Dong Zhuo's deliberate tone of dragging the text, and there was no emotion on his thin face, and said: "If I ask Zhong Ying to write a silk and oppose the new system, will Zhong Ying have any difficulties?" ”

Dong Zhuo was stunned, looked at Yuan Kui and said, "Taifu is saying that you want me to write a book now to oppose the new system?" Isn't it a little anxious, can you go to Beijing to talk about it? ”

Yuan Kui paid attention to Dong Zhuo's expression, smiled slowly, and said, "I didn't say now." After arriving in Beijing, the Taiwei Mansion may not have been cleaned up yet, how about living in my Yuan Mansion first? ”

Dong Zhuo smiled and said, "I don't dare to ask for it." ”

Yuan Kui nodded on his face and shook his head in his heart, this Dong Zhuo is a reckless man, I don't know when he started to love reading, and even writes articles, talks with people, and often shows his literary brilliance.

Cao Cao rode his horse and walked in front, his eyes couldn't help but look in the direction of Sanfu.

He has always intended to visit Lu Zhi in Sanfu, hoping to follow Lu Zhi to fight and make meritorious contributions, instead of guarding the palace in Beijing.

If you don't have military exploits, where will you get the title?

Cao Cao has a very big ambition in his heart, that is, to be a marquis by merit!

However, he also knew that without a suitable opportunity, he would not be able to leave the palace in a short period of time.

'Are you in your thirties...... Cao Cao looked at the somewhat gray sky and sighed lightly.

……

Three days later, the Royal Palace, Hong Lim Garden.

Liu Wei paced slowly, and said to Xun Yu behind him: "Xun Qing's family, the summer grain is coming, I'm afraid there will be more trouble." ”

Once a poor family has some money, everyone in the family will rush to fight for it, not to mention a country as big as the Han Dynasty.

Xun You is an official Cao Shangshu, but he also cares about the treasury, and when he heard this, he said: "Your Majesty, you must ensure that the tax and grain are collected as much as possible." ”

"I do." Liu Wei's voice was a little louder.

He really wanted to, but how many of the local state pastors, assassins, and Taishou counties were willing to send money and grain to Luoyang? What's more, the imperial court still owes them money, money and food for bandits, as well as disaster relief, pensions and so on.

That little tax was not enough for them to get up and down, and there was not much left in the imperial court.

Xun You naturally understood the complexity and difficulty, and just as he was about to speak, Liu Wei said again: "I said it casually. I came to Qing's house today because Dong Zhuo was about to arrive in Beijing. ”

Xun You's expression sank, followed Liu Wei, and said, "Your Majesty, Dong Zhuo has entered Beijing, then he should immediately start the matter of merging the state." ”

Liu Wei walked into a gazebo, sat down and said, "I have already handed it over to Lu Qing's family to deal with." Sit down and take a look at these two transcripts first. ”

After Xun Yu thanked him, he sat opposite Liu Wei and took the two silks handed over by Pan Yin.

The first one is Yuan Kui's, the content is plain, but he praised Dong Zhuo a little, thinking that he is 'the minister who governs the world and the pillar of the country'.

After reading it, Xun You opened the second one, swept it in a hurry, and his face changed immediately.

This is Dong Zhuo's recital, and he wrote a special account of the merits of his generals and asked the court to commend him; Then he mentioned the 'new system' of the imperial court, saying that "the establishment of a person is filial piety, the establishment of the country is a law, and the law of the ancestors cannot be taken lightly", "no one can be trusted without people, and the country cannot be without a country", and so on.

After reading it, Xun You was shocked, looked up at Liu Zhuo, and said, "Your Majesty, this Dong Zhuo ......"

Liu Wei took a sip of tea and said expressionlessly: "It's expected." ”

Xun You slowly lowered his head, frowning and thinking.

Yuan Kui's prestige is too high, unparalleled today, in Shangshutai, no one can compare, he will not openly oppose it, but the introduction of a Dong Zhuo is enough for the imperial court to be jealous.

"Your Majesty!"

Xun Yu raised his head fiercely, stared at Liu Wei with blazing eyes, and said, "You must convince Mrs. Yuan!" ”

Yuan Kui or the Yuan family is not as simple as a family of scholars with unprecedented prestige and unprecedented prestige, he represents the Han family!

Families all over the world are looking at Yuan Kui, it doesn't matter if Yuan Kui is in the court or not, what matters is his attitude.

If Yuan Kui supports the 'new system', then the world's families will have nothing to say; even if he is silent, the terrible influence radiated by the world's families will be constrained everywhere, making it difficult for the imperial court to move forward with the 'new system'!

is like Wang Mang, his ability to usurp the throne is his prestige, and he has the support of the family; Defeated, that is, he was opposed by the family, and the whole world was the enemy, and he was crushed to pieces!

Liu Wei looked at him, his eyes narrowed slightly.

He understood what Xun Yu meant, and the reason why he left Yuan Kui in Shangshutai was that Liu Wei wanted to use Yuan Kui, the leader of the family, to deal with the family!

Seeing that Liu Wei didn't speak, Xun You thought about it and said, "Your Majesty, please ask Dr. Yang to persuade Mrs. Yuan, move it with affection, and understand it with reason." ”

To deal with a person of great prestige, you can't use force, you can only use your mouth.

"Yang Ci is not enough,"

Liu Wei's expression remained unchanged, his eyes flashed, and he said, "I came in person." ”

Xun You bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, are you sure?" ”

As soon as his voice fell, Pan Yin hurriedly ran over and whispered behind Liu Wei: "Your Majesty, the imperial servant Yuan Ji, and the great Si Nong Huang Wan took more than 100 people from the government and the opposition out of the city to greet Yuan Taifu and Dong Zhuo. ”

Xun You was shocked, such a big battle?

He subconsciously looked at Liu Wei.

Liu Wei stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup, his face was expressionless, and he said lightly: "You inform Cao Cao to directly escort them into the palace, and I want to see them immediately." ”

Xun You bowed slightly, his expression solemn.
