Chapter 12
In 189 A.D., on September [-]st, Dong Zhuo abolished the emperor in the front hall of Chongde and appointed the prince Xie as the new emperor, in the name of "Xiandi".Immediately afterwards, Dong Zhuo arbitrarily established himself as the Prime Minister, and at the same time impeached Empress Dowager He for killing Empress Dowager Dong, removed her, and moved her to Yong'an Palace, which shocked the court for a while.

When Empress Dowager He died suddenly in the deep palace on September [-], Dong Zhuo did not allow the court to hold a funeral for the Empress Dowager. Instead, he asked Liu Xie to express his condolences at the Changting Pavilion in Luoyang City.

For a while, Dong Zhuoquan was in power, and the whole country was shaken.

In Bingzhou camp outside the city, Lu Bu was wearing white clothes and riding a majestic red rabbit horse. Gao Shun and Zhang Liao rushed over after hearing the words, and saw Lu Bu's face turned cold.

After entering the big tent, Lu Bu had a cold expression on his face, and the young Zhang Liao had a resentful expression on his face, "My lord, I'm afraid the court will not accept this move by Mr. Dong!"

Looking at Zhang Liao who sighed, Lu Bu nodded silently, while Gao Shun looked indifferent, as if the matter had nothing to do with him and Gao Shun didn't worry about it.

At this time, Lu Bu was most worried about what happened in Xiangguo's mansion just now, and said with a headache on his face: "Dong Xiangguo ordered us to divide up [-] troops, [-] to help guard the tiger prison, and [-] to guard Mengjin Port."

In an instant, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were shocked when they heard the words, then Gao Shun clasped his fists with a gloomy expression, and said in a deep voice, "My lord, Dong Zhuo's move may have the intention of splitting and merging the state's military power."

Looking at Gao Shun with a gloomy face, Lu Bu felt a burst of emotion in his heart, yes, now that Dong Zhuoquan is in power, if he really wins over the generals of Bingzhou, their [-] soldiers and horses may not be far away.

"This is exactly what I am worried about, so I decided that Zhang Liao would lead [-] troops to Mengjin Port, and Gao Shun'er would lead [-] troops to Tiger Prison. Make your own food."

Looking at the two people in front of him, Lu Bu decided after a moment of contemplation. After all, how can a person not bow his head under the eaves? If they refuse, I am afraid that only a few imperial edicts from the Xiangguo Mansion are needed, and how many people among the generals can do it for fame and fortune? So bow your head.

Although his reputation in Bingzhou is unmatched, under Dong Zhuo's general situation, the [-] Bingzhou soldiers and horses may fall apart in an instant. This is the role of fame.

Regardless of whether Dong Zhuo is notorious or wise, it is indeed Dong Zhuo who is now in power. Lu Bu can only obey to show his loyalty, and at the same time he can make Dong Zhuo feel at ease.

Looking at Lu Bu who had already made the decision, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao clasped their fists together and shouted: "The general will obey."

And in Luoyang City, where the former General's Mansion is now the Xiangguo Mansion, Dong Zhuo's face was swollen, his big hand stroked his needle-like beard, and he said with a slightly complacent expression: "Wen You, it seems that Lu Bu has really and definitely submitted to our family."

When Li Ru saw the complacent Dong Zhuo, his expression was extremely solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "My lord, you must be careful. Although Lu Bu is loyal and courageous, he has to obey his character, but he must be careful."

Dong Zhuo nodded frequently after hearing the words. As a person who came from a poor family step by step to the present, he did not rely on Li Ru alone as a think tank.

hero!It can be said that before the princes were born, Dong Zhuo could be called a hero in the world, and his talent was not a little worse than Cao Cao.

The seemingly rough Dong Zhuo's eyes shone with a delicate light. After thinking about it for a few times, he waved his hand directly, "Wen You, the Bingzhou army has just surrendered. If he looks a little ugly, I'm afraid that Lu Bu will be far away from his morals."

Hearing Dong Zhuo's worrying words, Li Ru nodded in agreement, "A thousand troops are easy to win, but a general is hard to find." This famous saying through the ages is not groundless.

"My lord, since Lu Bu has divided up [-] troops, and there are still [-] troops in the battalion, it's time to give him something sweet."

At this time, Dong Zhuo also had a few calculations in his heart. Now he really needed a balance for the forces under the prime minister of the country, and this balance was Lu Bu's Bingzhou army.

If it weren't for Lu Bunai to be the blazing peerless general in his heart, he would definitely not let his [-] soldiers and horses be by his side easily.

Once things are hard to find, you should also think clearly about yourself. At the same time, the more you want to get something, the more you can't get it, and people's hearts will often be full of desire to pursue it.

It seems that Lv Bu has already taken effect, and Dong Xiang and Dong Gong in Kekou also proved that Lv Bu is not convinced. Such people are probably only temporarily following him because of his burial of Ding Yuan.

Dong Zhuo had seen this kind of person before, not for fame or fortune, once he got the approval of this kind of person, he would be really loyal, fortunately Ding Yuan did not die at his hands, otherwise this kind of fierce general might really not be his turn.

Dong Zhuo, with a look of emotion on his face, really loves and hates Lv Bu. What he loves is Lv Bu's peerless bravery, and what he hates is how he can't be as good as Ding Yuan.

It's also the feeling of rivalry in his heart, since you, Ding Yuan, can get the allegiance of such a general, Dong Zhuo thinks that his methods are no different from him.

After thinking of this for a while, Dong Zhuo's eyes flashed with burning desire. This is a kind of greed, a kind of extreme greed for civil servants and generals, just like Cao Cao in history, who loves talents like his life.

"Wen You, let the little emperor decree that Bingzhou Lu Bu has made great contributions in guarding the frontier all his life, and he will be named General Zhenbei and given the title of 'Flying General'."

Although he knew that relying on fame and fortune could not win his heart, but this was a kind of attention, and it was also a necessary means for the superiors to win the hearts of the inferiors.

"My lord is wise." Regarding Dong Zhuo's cooking on this matter, Li Ru could be said to be relieved, and his eyes were even more brilliant.

A vain job plus a vain title, even if you don’t feel greedy for this kind of people, you will definitely have a good impression in your heart. Boiling a frog in warm water is what it is. Didn’t he in the past slowly submit to Dong Zhuo’s allegiance?

At this time, after the two looked at each other, they burst into laughter instantly. The relationship between the two of them can be said to be unusual, but Li Ruzhi is not a soldier in charge, and also his son-in-law. After thinking of this, Dong Zhuo's eyes shone with a strong light.

Xiliang's elites are famous all over the world, Lu Bu's bravery is even more obvious to all, and Li Ru's wisdom can be said to be the best in the world!For a moment, Dong Zhuo exuded a domineering arrogance all over the world, which made Li Ru below nod his head frequently, and was overjoyed in his heart.

With the mobilization of soldiers and horses outside Luoyang City, Dong Zhuo had already made arrangements for food and grass, and the counties along the way had already made preparations.

In order to win Lu Bu's heart, Dong Zhuo even had a small banquet for three days and a big banquet for five days. The treatment of Lu Bu was supreme.

For a while, the Xiliang generals in Dong Zhuo's headquarters were even more jealous, and the Xiliang and Bingzhou armies maintained a short-term balance.

Dong Zhuo, who held the power, was even more arrogant. Whenever he made a voice in the court, no one dared to object.
