The news of the death of General Dong Chong of the Cavalry alarmed Liu Hong, the Emperor of Han who had been distracted in the palace for a long time. Therefore, at the Luoyang Palace Meeting the next morning, the ministers of the cultural relics met this Emperor of Han who was lewd and lewd, who was comparable to King Zhou of Shang.

Ah, it is just comparable to King Zhou of Shang in terms of debauchery. Apart from this, the emperor of Han seemed to have nothing to praise. You know, even King Zhou of Shang was a wise king when he was young: he attached importance to agriculture and sericulture, developed national strength, sent troops to attack the tribes of Dongyi outside, and expanded the territory to the Jianghuai area. (It is said that King Zhou was defeated because of the attack on Dongyi? Although King Zhou won the attack on Dongyi, he suffered too much losses and had too many prisoners. As a result, the Western Zhou Dynasty took the opportunity to attack Shang, the prisoners turned against him, and the Shang Dynasty was destroyed?)

However, this great Han emperor Liu Hong seemed to be selected by the then empress Dou Miao and his father, the then general Dou Wu, because of his royal bloodline, and from a down-and-out royal family, he suddenly became the emperor of the Han Dynasty. The Dong family's mother was noble because of her son and became the honor of the empress dowager.

My position as emperor was picked up for nothing...

It was Cao Jie, the attendant of the Huangmen who sent me this good news...

Why did Cao Jie, the attendant of the Huangmen, end up with a good end? Even after his death, Liu Hong still missed him. This is probably because Cao Jie, as an envoy of the court, conveyed to Liu Hong the good news that he was about to ascend to the throne of the emperor.

When Liu Hong and Dong's mother and son were having a difficult life, Cao Jie knocked on Liu Hong's door and said to him with a smile: "You are going to be the emperor..."

I believe no matter who it is, I still remember this scene that changed the trajectory of his life. No wonder Liu Hong believed in eunuchs. Who said that Cao Jie, the Huangmen Eunuch, first conveyed this amazing news to him?

"Your Majesty, I want to impeach the Sima of the Yulin Army, Guangwu Order, the Northern Commander of the County Governor, Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhongying, the Western Regions Xuyi School Commander, was ordered to encircle and suppress the Taiping Road thieves in the city last night, led people to surround the General of the Cavalry, and forced General Dong Chong to death. Then he assisted a thief named Zhang Huang to escape, deceiving the emperor and his superiors, and his crime was unforgivable!"

Shortly after Liu Hong sat on the throne of the emperor, his uncle, the brother of Dong's brother, Jinwu, Dong Chong, stepped out of the court, and pointed to Dong Zhuo and Li Ru, who were held by four Yulin soldiers in the Weiyang Hall, to show Dong Zhuo's crimes to the emperor.

The officials in the hall did not say a word because Dong Zhuo's title of "Sima of the Yulin Army" was enough to show everything. He was the subordinate of the general, and the chief and deputy of the Yulin Army of the five divisions under the general. (If there is a lieutenant, the lieutenant is the chief. If there is no lieutenant, the lieutenant is the chief.)

The court officials knew it well, and everyone knew that Dong Zhuo was just a scapegoat introduced by General He Jin. Dong Zhuo killed Dong Chong? The same surname was Dong, but maybe it was a family hundreds of years ago. What are the benefits of Dong Zhuo killing Dong Chong? But I can't say that God knows whether General He Jin will report to you to falsely accusing the court officials?

"Dong Zhuo?" Liu Hong looked through the achievements of Dong Zhuo that had been prepared on the Yu Case. He couldn't help but be surprised as he looked at it. After all, in the record, Dong Zhuo was able to be said to have great achievements. Longxi was managed in an orderly manner by him. When the Western Qiang rebelled, Longxi was the only one that had not been robbed.

Although Liu Hong was incompetent and greedy for pleasure, he was not ignorant. After looking through Dong Zhuo’s Chen Chen Gongxun, he felt a little fond of this rough and reckless hero in Longxi. After greeting Dong Zhuo, he asked, "Dong Zhuo, what do you have to say about this?"

Dong Zhuo scratched his head and smiled carelessly. "That day minister saw that a few thieves broke into the General Cavalry's Mansion, and wanted to force General Cavalry to help him escape. Dong Bivalry was not forced by the thieves, so he waited for an opportunity to commit suicide, so that he could kill all the thieves. I hope your Majesty will understand clearly."

Liu Hong frowned when he heard this. Even he could guess that Dong Zhuo was lying, let alone the civil and military officials in the court. However, the Qingliu people in the court, such as Yang Ci, Ma Richan, etc., kept silent, as if they had not heard Dong Zhuo's words full of loopholes.

The only one who stood up to scold him was probably the only one who was called Jinwu Dong. He pointed at Dong Zhuo and scolded him, "Dong Zhuo deceived the emperor!"

However, to everyone's surprise, not only did the Qingliu Party members in the court remain silent, but even Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong and other Huangmen attendants were standing by, which made Dong Chong feel a little uneasy.

At this time, He Jin finally stood up, ignored Dong Chong's scolding of Dong Zhuo and his obscure accusations against him, He Jin, and said to Emperor Liu Hong, "Your Majesty, I think that the thief of Taiping Dao is the most urgent task at the moment. As far as I know, Zhang Jiao, the first thief of Taiping Dao, has recruited disciples and disciples in order to plan for our Han Dynasty, and set up thirty-six parties, more than 10,000 people in a grand manner, and thousands of people in a small manner. If you allow it, you may be in trouble of overthrowing the country... I beg Your Majesty to order the imperial edict to capture Taiping Dao!"

As soon as he finished speaking, General Huangfu Song of the Central Army also came out and said, "Your Majesty, what the General said is very true. The matter of the Party and the corruption has been delayed for a long time. Now Taiping Dao is coming in full force. It is better to lift the Party and the Party members help the General to kill Taiping Dao and ensure the peace and stability of our Han Dynasty."

He Jin smiled slightly and replied, "My teacher, please give me a comment."

[…]

Liu Hong looked at Yang Ci, Ma Richan and others in surprise, and they understood something in their hearts, so they looked at Zhang Rang and other yellow gate ministers.

To everyone's surprise, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong remained silent, while Lu Qiang came forward to support Huangfu Song, which surprised Liu Hong. You must know that these people alone represent several forces, and it is difficult to imagine that these people can reach an agreement on their opinions.

[So, He Jin's momentum...]

Liu Hong couldn't help but feel a little worried, and at this moment, Zhang Rang leaned over the emperor's ear and said, suddenly, Liu Hong raised his eyebrows in surprise and nodded, "What you said is very consistent with my wishes. We will arrest the thieves of Taiping Road from now on!"

"Your Majesty's wise!"

The relatives, the Qingliu Party members, and the eunuchs seemed to have reached an agreement at this moment, calling them the wise and wise, but Dong Chong, the only one who was in Jinwu, could not understand what was going on, and looked at the scene in front of him blankly.

In the end, as the fifth palace Yuan said, under He Jin's protection, Dong Zhuo was finally ordered to commit crimes and make meritorious service, and walked out of the Weiyang Palace without any danger with Li Ru.

"Han Sui, did Ma Teng rebel with the Western Qiang? Why don't I know?"

When he left the palace, Dong Zhuo scratched his head and asked in confusion.

Li Ru, who was beside him, said lightly, "The general said there must be, then there must be... Han Sui, Ma Tengshi rebelled and surrendered, God knows what's going on."

Although he said that, it can be seen from Li Ru's sneering expression. It seems that it is not what he said.

After glanced at Dong Zhuo who was still muttering, Li Ru lowered his voice and said, "Compared with this, aren't you curious about what that Zhang Rang said in His Majesty's ear?"

"Just like you said, God knows!" Dong Zhuo grinned, and then seemed to think of something, touched his chin and said, "By the way, He Jin promised me that the governor of Bingzhou and the prefect of Hedong..."

"It's the general!" Li Ru reminded him with a cough.

"Yes, yes." Dong Zhuo said casually, "It's a pity that I have to go through a formality..."

Of course, Li Ru knew what Dong Zhuo said was about to go through a motionless situation. He meant to help Zhang Wen send troops to Xiliang, and asked those restless guys in Xiliang to be more at ease.

"Didn't the general be kind to let you avoid the limelight?"

"I'm using it to avoid the limelight?" Dong Zhuo curled his lips disdainfully.

At this time, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru walked past the gate of the imperial city. They saw Sun Jian standing outside the palace wall and the city gate. The latter stared at Dong Zhuo and Li Ru in disbelief and walked out of the palace without any injuries.

"Hehehe." Dong Zhuo laughed strangely twice, and walked away from Li Ru under Sun Jian's incredible gaze.

"Then Sun Wentai doesn't seem to be with us..." Li Ru said lightly.

"I know." Dong Zhuo chuckled and grinned, "No matter how fierce that guy is, he is just a dog from the old era. In comparison, that kid is more in line with my temper..."

"That boy named Zhang Huang?" Li Ru couldn't help but think of the little ghost with a trace on the city wall last night, and shook his head laughed and cried.

"Guess what that kid is doing?"

"God knows."

Dong Zhuo looked up at the sky after hearing this and murmured, "I have a premonition that we will see that boy again..."

At this moment, a group of Confucian scholars with swords came towards him, stopping Dong Zhuo and Li Ru.

[These people...Sword Religion?]

Li Ru looked at the other party in surprise and asked vigilantly, "Why do you stop me from going there? I wonder what's the point?"

The leader Jian Ru took out a scroll from his arms, held it with his right hand and spread it vertically, and said in a deep voice, "Dong Zhuo, someone is coming to collect the accounts: Yesterday you shot down and destroyed thirty-seven armillary spheres. This is a list of damage. I hope you can go to the library of the Confucian Academy of Mos and Rus. Within ten days, you will pay compensation."

"..." Dong Zhuo and Li Ru looked at each other, glanced at the payment list on the scroll, and were so shocked that they couldn't help sweating.

"This... so much?" Dong Zhuo swallowed his saliva and said in surprise, "Just kidding? A single iron lump costs millions?"

Jian Ru, who was in charge, was silent for a moment and suddenly asked, "When you waited to enter the city, did you see two huge bronze statues at the city gate?"

"It is said to be the legacy of the pre-Qin Dynasty, the one from the giant warriors and warriors?" Li Ru asked.

"good."

"See it." Li Ru nodded and said truthfully.

"That's good." The Confucian scholar smiled and handed the bill to Li Ru, saying with a smile, "If you don't want the twelve giant warriors to chase you and collect debts, you will pay the compensation within ten days."

"...Is this a threat?" Dong Zhuo's face darkened and he asked coldly.

Unexpectedly, the Jian Ju ignored Dong Zhuo's changing face. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "What the adult said is, 'Tell those two dogs to pay me ten times the compensation! Otherwise, I will take twelve bronze men to collect the bills in person! Tyrant, treat my mother's hard work like that!"

[My mother...]

Dong Zhuo and Li Ru looked at each other.

After patting Dong Zhuo on the shoulder, the swordsman said in a low voice, "Don't provoke Mo Ru, let alone provoke that adult... Even if you are said to have an immortal martial soul, Mo Ru will always find a way to kill you."

Dong Zhuo felt a stern when he heard this and asked in a low voice, "Dare you ask who is who?"

"Moscow and Confucian Wood Saints!... The words stop here, and the two of you want to do it themselves!"

"..." Looking at the swordsman turning and leaving, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru looked at the sky-high compensation list in their hands with laughter and cry.

"Thirty-seven...million yuan? How much did I knock it down?"

"God knows...it seems to be necessary to avoid the limelight, Azhuo."

“Um…”

--at the same time--

Just when Dong Zhuo and Li Ru thought of Zhang Huang, Zhang Huang was also thinking about Dong Zhuo and Li Ru. He didn't know that he asked Dong Zhuo to carry a huge amount of one million yuan in compensation, and he was still worried about Li Ru kicking him off the city wall at that time.

After all, because of Li Ru, Zhang Huang finally failed to finish the saying "I, Zhang Huang, will be back." Because before he finished speaking, he had fallen to the ground. Despite his rigid body protection, Zhang Huang was enough to suffer. Not to mention the shock of the internal organs, even a few bones were broken.

However, when I thought that I fell off a city wall dozens of feet high, Zhang Huang could accept this relatively minor injury. The only regret is probably that I didn’t finish the words that earned the last bit of face.

"Oh, why didn't you finish calling?"

About six or seven miles east of Luoyang City, Zhang Huang sat by a bonfire, sighing like a person who complained. At the same time, he gritted his teeth at Li Ru's bad behavior.

Since fleeing Luoyang last night, Zhang Huang has been staying here, waiting for Li Tong and other black-feathered crow companions to meet him. It was not until the second half of the night that he suddenly realized. It turned out that he and Li Tong and others had only agreed to join Luoyang City, but had not decided on the exact location.

"It's not good now..."

After muttering, Zhang Huang looked at his right hand. The scene of She Zhi and Ma Yuanyi being killed by Tang Zhou one after another appeared in his mind.

[Why did Brother Zhou of Tang betray Taipingdao and his brothers?]

I have to say that Zhang Huang was quite angry about Tang Zhou's behavior. Just like the Black Feather Crow. In Zhang Huang's opinion, Taiping Dao should be united. How could brothers betray their brothers?

After waiting for a day and a night, Li Tong and others had not arrived to meet him. Zhang Huang finally decided to fulfill Ma Yuanyi's instructions before his death. He went to Julu, Jizhou to expose the actions of the great wise and good teacher Zhang Jiao, the leader of Taipingdao, and reminded Zhang Jiao that the Han Dynasty had learned that he would lead Taipingdao to resist the court.

After all, in his opinion, Li Tong and others went to find Chen Dao separately from him, so they should not be implicated. They should be able to take good care of themselves. It is urgent to inform Zhang Jiao about Tang Zhou's matter.

However, the land of Sili in Luoyang is more than a thousand miles away from Julu, Jizhou. If you walk to Julu with your feet, you may be cold even when you arrive at the daylily.

After thinking about it, Zhang Huang used the soil to extinguish the bonfire and walked towards the nearest county town. He planned to find a way to get a carriage in the nearest county town. At the least, he would have to get a horse. After all, he would not be allowed to run to Jizhou with his feet.

Of course, Zhang Huang had thought about using the Sky Escape technique to rush on his way, but the problem was that he was not too pure about Sky Escape, so he was no problem using it to escape. He was ten miles, hundreds of miles or even thousands of miles away. But the problem was that he had not yet mastered the direction of the Sky Escape. If he had just one day escaped, he would have been able to pass him to a place thousands of miles away from Julu, and Zhang Huang might have the intention to cry.

In comparison, Luoyang and Julu are only a few counties away. If there is a fast horse, Zhang Huang bet that he will be able to arrive in about ten days.

However, when Zhang Huang came to a nearby county town, he realized that the imperial court's order to arrest Taiping Road had been issued. Zhang Jiao, a great wise teacher who was once rewarded with a reward of 5,000 gold, has now been increased to 50,000 gold. This is definitely a huge reward that anyone would be jealous of.
