Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms, God of War Lu Bu
Chapter 73, Bloody Luoyang Raises the Sword Again
In November of the first year of Yonghan, winter was approaching, and it was already rare to see the sun in Luoyang.
Under the gloomy twilight sky, the bone-chilling cold wind whizzed by, bringing strong cold air. It penetrated through the gaps and hollows of the armor and penetrated inside. The coldness of the wind overwhelmed the human body itself.
The soldiers' body temperature was so high that they couldn't resist the trembling force even though they stamped their feet.
It was already desolate outside the city gate. Although it hadn't snowed yet, there was already a layer of strange silver frost on the road, some mixed with mud, and the shape spoiled the eyes.
At this time, more than two hundred meters away from the gate of Luoyang East City, three figures were wandering on the street.
"What do you think happened to the second master this time? Why are you still staying outside now?"
"Second Master has never stayed out at night before, and this time it is indeed strange..."
"Haha, the second master hasn't come back yet, and the second lady went to the prime minister's house to make trouble again. It's no wonder that the prime minister is angry."
"Our second master is just greedy and lustful. Can you stop him from coming out and facing the yellow-faced woman at home every day? But that's right. This time the second master stayed out for too long. The second wife asked to see the Prime Minister several times.
, the old lady has said it several times, and then the Prime Minister sent us out."
"Hey, isn't that the second master's carriage?"
"Ah!" This discovery made the three of them scream in surprise, because they saw a carriage parked alone on the side of the road.
And it seems that this carriage has been parked here for a long time. The key to the problem is that the two horses pulling in front have disappeared at this time.
Seeing this scene, the three people who were talking and laughing all calmed down and had a bad feeling in their hearts. Then they hurried to the carriage. The originally closed back door of the carriage was actually open at this time.
, and through the gap, the three of them could clearly see the scene inside.
But it was better not to see it clearly. After seeing it clearly, two of them immediately collapsed to the ground timidly, and the other one was not much better. He was trembling when he spoke: "This, this, this..."
There was a bloody corpse in the carriage, eyes wide open with reluctance. Judging from the dryness of the blood, the time of death was at least before yesterday.
The people who were supposed to guard the carriage disappeared instead. Obviously they were not dead, but they did not dare to stay at all, and they did not even dare to run back to report Dong Zhuo. Of course the three of them understood why. If it were them,
If they find that the big shot they are escorting dies suddenly, they will run for their lives quickly. Dong Zhuo is not a soft-hearted person who will think that they are just negligent and will not be held accountable if his brother dies. What's more, this kind of thing is indeed the responsibility of the poor guard.
The three Dong Zhuo soldiers who were sent looked at each other and felt a headache, but they had no choice but to go back and report the news. At least they would not be executed. They just thought in their hearts that this time the Prime Minister would really be furious.
Already...
In the political hall of the imperial palace, Dong Zhuo, the prime minister of the day, looked furious. He looked at the ministers sitting down and almost roared out the anger in his heart: "I don't believe that Cao Mengde, alone, can do such a great thing. He must have something."
Complicity, that’s all if this person stands up on his own initiative, otherwise someone will find him out in the future and someone will make him regret coming to this world!”
In fact, these words were taught to him by Li Ru, but now he said them with resentment in his heart, and his broken gong voice was even more irritating. In addition, Dong Zhuo had accumulated intimidation in the hearts of the courtiers during this period.
Everyone was so angry that they didn't dare to take a breath, and some of them were already secretly complaining in their hearts about the person Dong Zhuo said was the accomplice.
It's a pity that a quarter of an hour passed, and two quarters of an hour passed... Time passed slowly, and no one came forward.
Li Ru, who was watching these people coldly from below, frowned and felt a little bad.
This time it was really a miscalculation on his part, as he never expected that someone would carry out such a dangerous move.
According to Li Ru's previous thoughts, Dong Zhuo is the core pillar of the Xiliang Dong Zhuo Group, including the Bingzhou Army, and he is also the most feared existence by outsiders. Therefore, on the one hand, he is careful about Dong Zhuo's safety, and on the other hand, he himself
But also a little relaxed.
But starting from today, it is obvious that internal protection measures must be strengthened, especially for Dong Zhuo, the backbone of everyone, and all means must be used to ensure his safety...
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Dong Zhuo, who was furious in the Jiade Hall to intimidate the ministers, came back here but immediately lay back on the couch. At this time, his face was full of weakness, how could he still be as arrogant and wild as he was showing off his fierce power in the Council Hall?
In fact, according to Li Ru's calculations, this is a good opportunity. It can be assumed that Dong Zhuo was assassinated, leaving the entire Xiliang Group without a leader. At this time, some people will inevitably jump out, including the person behind Cao Cao.
In addition, no one knows the true situation of Dong Zhuo now that Cao Cao has escaped, so he may not be able to successfully deceive outsiders.
Unfortunately, when Dong Zhuo was angry and blocked Luoyang City, the news that Dong Zhuo was not dead had already spread. At that time, Dong Zhuo considered that if something went wrong with him, it would cause turmoil to the Xiliang Army, the Bingzhou Army and even the Imperial Guard, and
Although Li Ru felt that it was a pity that he had missed a good opportunity, he immediately thought of a way to make up for it.
Now that everyone has announced that everything is fine, let's just make a show and let everyone know that Dong Zhuo is not only fine, but also intact. Cao Cao, who is also informed, is on the run. As for the people in the Prime Minister's Palace, they can handle it, and then Li Ru will do it.
Secretly arrange people to monitor those ministers to see if any of them behave abnormally, and based on this, they can infer who is the person behind Cao Cao. Even if that person is too cunning, he still can't hide it, and Li Ru can do it again.
Even if you plan to jump over the wall in a hurry, as long as you take the initiative, everything will be easy.
But this was a pain for Dong Zhuo. After all, his injuries were not healed and his body was very weak. However, he had to look lively and energetic in front of the civil and military ministers. It can be said that it took a lot of effort, and if Li Ru hadn't struck him in time,
The look in his eyes made Dong Zhuo announce his resignation. I am afraid that the next moment Dong Zhuo will not be able to hold on anymore and his flaws will be exposed.
As soon as he came back, Dong Zhuo naturally lay back down immediately. Fortunately, it didn't take long and the physical damage was not serious, but now his face was visibly pale again, obviously it was still somewhat affected.
"Now everything depends on Wen Youdi..." After experiencing this assassination incident, if we want to say the biggest change in Dong Zhuo, or the biggest benefit to him, it is that it made him wake up a little, at least to restore him to his previous state.
If you have any questions, please ask Li Ru for advice.
Li Ru pondered for a while and said: "Ru has made a plan for what will happen next. Now my father-in-law only needs to rest peacefully and wait for news from Fengxian."
"Can Fengxian really pursue Cao Cao?"
Li Ru shook his head, "This Ru can't guarantee that Fengxian should be able to catch up with Cao Cao, but it's hard to say whether he can kill him."
"What's the meaning of this statement?"
"From the fact that Cao Cao assassinated his father-in-law, like when Jing Ke stabbed Qin Tuqiong and the dagger appeared, but he did not know how to escape from the city search and the city gate blockade and escaped from Luoyang, we can see that this man is smart and courageous, and there may be someone else behind him
.The enemy is in the dark, and the enemy is in the light. If he is marching and fighting, it is no problem to follow the enemy. However, although he is somewhat quick-witted, he lacks experience in dealing with such situations. Confucianism is afraid that if he is not careful, he will be taken advantage of by Cao Cao."
"Wouldn't it be dangerous to serve first?" Dong Zhuo was a little worried, but he valued Lu Budi very much.
Li Ru said with a smile: "Father-in-law, there is no need to worry. Fengxianji people have their own destiny, so nothing will happen to them. Moreover, we have sent several groups of Xiliang troops to search for him later, which is also an insurance policy."
Dong Zhuo nodded naturally, but Li Ru said in his heart: "I hope it is really the lucky person who has his own destiny, otherwise my father-in-law will lose an arm and the situation will be difficult!"
At this moment, someone suddenly came to report from outside the door: "Prime Minister, Prime Minister, Second Master, Second Master, he..."
Dong Zhuo, who was lying on the couch, suddenly stood up, and Li Ru had also stood up. Of course he knew that the second master he was talking about was Dong Min, Dong Zhuo's younger brother and Dong Yuan's uncle.
"What's wrong with him?" Dong Zhuo's voice was thick and strong, but Li Ru could certainly hear that he was still trembling and weak. Just as he was about to persuade him to take care of himself, the person had already reported: "Someone was found on the outskirts of Dongcheng.
I found the body of the second master, the second master... is dead..."
ah!
"A certain person wants Luoyang to flow into a river of blood from today..."
After saying this sentence, Dong Zhuo felt like the world was spinning for a moment, and a breath of blood was squeezed in his throat. After a long time, he spit out "Wow", and then he could no longer hold on and fell into a coma...
