Chapter 146: The Demon is One Foot High
Dong Zhuo invited a treat, it was a weasel greeting the chicken!
If he is happy, it is okay for someone to occasionally lose his manners, but Tao Jie has just been beaten on the board, and at this juncture, someone actually sleeps and snores here?
Even if the person next to him sees the sleeping person, who would dare to take the risk of waking him up?
Everyone's gaze, following the snoring, fell on an old man in the corner.
Everyone saw that he was old and his hair was white, presumably because he was old, and after drinking some wine, he fell asleep unconsciously.
Dong Zhuo gave him a look, and a little eunuch rushed to the old man, kicked him awake, and scolded: "Old killer, I don't want to live, wake up quickly." ”
The old man woke up at this time, heard the little eunuch's scolding, and saw the eyes of the ministers, so he panicked, and trembled like chaff all over his body.
Dong Zhuo slowly walked up to the old man, and asked with a smile, "Is it a banquet for the prime minister to invite you?"
The old man hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes." ”
"You're not here to sleep, are you?"
"No, no. ”
"Can you explain?"
All the ministers were sweating for the old man, worried that Dong Zhuo would suddenly change his face.
The old man was very flustered, and said inarticulately: "Old minister Wang Lang, this time, I am going to donate all my family property in exchange for the post of Bajun Taishou. ”
"Oh, it turns out that you are Wang Lang, and now there are thieves everywhere, and the court is using money, if you are willing to do this, it can be regarded as contributing to the court. ”
Dong Zhuo did not get angry, but became pleasant, which confused the ministers.
"You're entering Beijing for the first time, right?"
"Yes, oh, no, I came with my father once when I was a kid. ”
"At your age, it is rare for you to contribute to the country wholeheartedly, and you will have a high birthday this year?"
"Tou Xiangye Hongfu, an old minister, is eighty-five years old. ”
Maybe he was too nervous, and he actually told the truth, because the imperial court has long stipulated that officials at the level of Taishou must not be more than sixty-five years old, and he is good, just say eighty-five.
The ministers shook their heads one after another, feeling sorry for him for the donated property.
Wang Lang was also a little sober at this time, he knew that Dong Zhuo in front of him was moody, and when he saw that the ministers were nervous one by one, he couldn't help beating drums in his heart, and he was in a cold sweat, and his heart was also extremely nervous.
But Dong Zhuo didn't look like he was going to be angry, and said: "This person is getting older, so he naturally sleeps more, and the Golden Dragon Hall is windy, so don't catch a cold." “
As he spoke, Dong Zhuo took off his coat and put it on Wang Lang.
Dong Zhuo is like this, the more nervous the ministers feel, this dress is actually a dragon robe, Dong Zhuo dares to wear it, where does Wang Lang dare to wear it?
In fact, in this palace, let alone the dragon robe, is there anything that he Dong Zhuo dare not do?
He occupied Weiyang Palace, but instead 'squeezed' the emperor to Changqiu Palace.
But Wang Lang didn't dare, when he saw the dragon robe, he was even frightened, he had already become a frightened bird, he wanted to refuse but didn't dare, tears fell, and he whimpered: "Thank you Xiangye for lifting up, Xiangye is gracious, the old minister has nothing to repay, I am willing to do my best and die ........."
He was going to say, 'Do your best, and then die.'" But as soon as he said the word 'death', he didn't mention it in one breath, he stuck in his throat, rolled his eyes in pain, and collapsed on the ground and swallowed his breath.
Wang Lang was scared to death on the spot, and he was worthy of the meaning of 'after death' that he wanted to express.
He donated all his family property and worked hard to open up the joints, but in the end he failed to become the Taishou of Naba County, but even lost his life.
When he died, all the ministers involuntarily knelt on the ground, and they didn't dare to come out.
Dong Zhuo took the list presented by Wang Lang and sighed: "Alas, it's a pity, it's a pity." ”
I don't know what to say
It's a pity for Wang Lang who died, or it's a pity for his family property.
After a while, he said: "He traveled thousands of miles to the capital to be loyal, but he suddenly died." However, this intention is also rare, so it is better to pay for the court to buy a thin-skinned coffin and bury him. ”
As soon as Dong Zhuo's words came out, all the ministers shouted that Xiangguo was sympathetic to his subordinates and was gracious.
But Dong Zhuo glanced at Tao Jie, who was sitting paralyzed, and sneered: "Tao Jie, since you like to advance money, then you will pay for his coffin board in advance!"
Tao Jie didn't dare to disobey, he was really dumb and ate coptis.
Naturally, the banquet could not go on.
It happened that a little eunuch hurriedly came in and whispered a few words in Dong Zhuo's ear.
So Dong Zhuo loudly announced that the banquet would end tonight, and no one would be allowed to take leave tomorrow morning.
As if by holy order, the ministers quickly left the temple, hoping to leave this place as soon as possible.
Only Dong Zhuo and a few personal eunuchs were left in the hall.
Almost with the front and back feet, Lu Bu and Dong Bai entered the main hall.
The moment he saw Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo's face changed, but after seeing his baby granddaughter, he immediately regained his pleasant complexion.
"Meet Xiangye. Lu Bu took a few steps and bowed.
"Hmm. Dong Zhuo didn't have the slightest intention of letting Lu Bu get up.
Lu Bu did an errand this time, but he fell short and the whole army was wiped out, and Dong Zhuo had already reported it through careful work.
Dong Zhuo didn't care how many people died, the key was that the Sword of the Son of Heaven fell into the hands of others, which made Dong Zhuo extremely annoyed.
The 'betrayal' of the 'ally' Zhang Jiao, the 'conspiracy' of the ghost shadow, and the 'good luck' of Cao Cao and others all made him angry.
The well-planned bureau was ruined in one fell swoop, and you Lu Bu still have the face to come back to see me?
Of course, Dong Zhuo did not say these words.
The baby granddaughter was present, and he was just inconvenienced.
Yes, he smiled on the surface, but he really sneered in his heart.
"Grandpa, he's just recovering from a serious injury, can't you let him kneel for a long time!"
Dong Bai's words relieved Lu Bu of the siege.
"Hehe, they all say that girls are outgoing, and they haven't passed the door yet, so they won't face grandpa. ”
Dong Bai heard this, and said with a rhetorical smile: "He has made a great contribution this time, and grandpa will reward him heavily." ”
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, reward! ”
In front of his granddaughter, Dong Zhuo seemed to have really become kind.
Dong Bai pulled up Lu Bu and pushed him to the dining table.
He originally wanted to say, "Thank you, Xiangye." ”
But after all, it was not spoken.
Dong Zhuo's viciousness and ruthlessness, he knows it very well.
Helpless, people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads!
At this dinner, the three of them ate 'laughter' and the atmosphere was 'extremely harmonious'.
After the end, Dong Bai left first.
Dong Zhuo's kind smile was instantly replaced by a cold frost.
He slammed the table, and the dishes flew around!
Lu Bu knelt on his knees and kowtowed his head.
Dong Zhuo's eyes widened, and Tie Qing's face jumped and jumped.
The mouth is closed and the teeth are creaking.
Lu Buwu knelt down and bowed, not even daring to raise his head.
And those palace maids and eunuchs were already frightened and slipped away.
The atmosphere in the hall was extremely oppressive and tense, and even the candlelight in the hall seemed to be frightened and became more and more dim.
Although there was wind flowing in the hall, Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu both had beads of sweat dripping from their foreheads.
The two of them didn't say a word, but their minds were spinning.
If it had been someone else, I, Dong Zhuo, would have ordered it to be pulled out and beheaded.
If it was someone else, I, Lu Bu, would have let his body be in a different place.
Hmph, wait for the prime minister's big event,
Settle accounts with the old thief again!
Hmph, wait for the day when the head of this family turns over, and teach the thief that you are better off than dead!
The two are still silent, and they still have their own ghosts.
Long!
"Get up. Dong Zhuo finally spit out these three words.
"Xie Xiangye. Lu Bu finally sang a sigh of relief.
"What are you going to do next?"
"Xiangye rest assured, even if his grandson chases him to the ends of the earth, he will recover the sword of the Son of Heaven. ”
"Confused!" Dong Zhuo sneered, "Cao Cao's people, who stole the Sword of the Son of Heaven, will definitely go into hiding, if you chase them with great fanfare, I'm afraid that you won't even be able to find the shadow of these people." ”
"Please advise the Prime Minister!"
"Well, those who achieve great things must know how to strategize, and never be brave. The Sword of the Son of Heaven is bound to be recaptured, but for Cao Cao and others, not only do you not pursue them, but you have to let them move around, hmph, he is in the light, you are in the dark, and I am afraid that I will not be able to find the Sword of the Son of Heaven?"
"The grandson is stupid, listening to the words of the grandfather, the grandson has just been enlightened, and the mouth is suddenly opened. ”
"There is another thing, Zhang Jiao has spread the news that he is going to hold a sword viewing conference at Yuezi Peak in Phoenix Mountain, and invite martial arts people to watch the sword of the Son of Heaven. ”
"What? Could it be that he has already snatched the Son of Heaven Sword from Cao Cao and the others?"
"Hmph, according to the original look, Zhang Jiao is just a bluff. ”
"So, what ...... does he take?"
Halfway through his words, Lu Bu suddenly understood what Dong Zhuo meant.
"What does Xiangye mean, is he getting a fake Son of Heaven Sword?"
"Well, this Xiangye thinks so, hehe, but he underestimated Zhang Jiao's guy, thanks to the good idea he came up with. Let me ask the people of this world, who has ever seen the real Son of Heaven Sword?"
"Yes, what he can do in the first year of junior high school, we can do fifteen. ”
"This is thanks to that Zhang Da Sect Master, since you have just come back from Jizhou, and when you come to the court tomorrow morning, you will take out the 'Son of Heaven Sword', and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, who dares to say a fake word?"
When Lu Bu heard this, a hanging heart finally fell back into his stomach.
No wonder the old thief didn't dispose of me, it turned out that it was me Lu Bu who still had use value!
As long as Emperor Gaozu's sword of the Son of Heaven is presented in the court, this Han world will not let the old thief call for wind and rain?
I'm afraid that the old thief will take the opportunity to change the dynasty, and he will also think about it.
Lu Bu was pondering, and heard Dong Zhuo ask, "I heard that Gaozu Jinmu was won by you?"
"Yes, yes, please take a look. Lu Bu hurriedly presented it.
Dong Zhuo took it, looked at it over and over for a long time, and suddenly laughed: "I didn't expect that our Emperor Gaozu would make a big joke with his descendants." Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, hehe, now that the Liu family has lost the hearts of the people, even if there is a sword of the Son of Heaven and a golden sword, what can they do?"
"Now the hearts of the people are all in Xiangye, and the people hope that Xiangye will stand on behalf of the Liu family and return the people of the world to a peaceful and prosperous world. ”
Lu Bu's words, Dong Zhuo's heart was full of joy, and the horizontal flesh on his face was also beating.
"Really?"
"The destiny of heaven is the desire, the people's aspirations, how dare my grandson speak in vain!"
"It's just that there needs to be a complete method, so that Liu is willing to make his own meditation. ”
"Grandson has a way, let's ......"
Then attached it to Dong Zhuo's ear and muttered.
Dong Zhuo laughed when he heard this: "Wonderful, wonderful, if this matter is successful, the prime minister will immediately give you the gift of marrying Bai'er." ”
"Thank you, oh no, thank you for your kindness......"
"Oh, Aiqing is flat, Aiqing is flat!"
Dong Zhuoxi smiled and personally supported his grandson with both hands.
Lu Bu got up, the two looked at each other and laughed!
