Chapter 642

In Chang'an Changle Palace.

This former center of the world, although it has been repaired all the time, it still looks dilapidated and dilapidated, without a trace of the atmosphere of an imperial city.

This is especially true for the children of the royal family who have lived in Luoyang since childhood.

In the palace, Liu Bian had already sat on the throne, and with Dong Zhuo's support, he had become the emperor of the Han Dynasty, while Liu Xie was conferred the title of King Chenliu, just a false name.

From top to bottom, the imperial court in Chang'an is all Dong Zhuo's people. This is not an exaggeration, but a fact.

This is exactly the Chang'an court formed by the Xiliang Army in a facelift.

As a courtier who supported Liu Bian's superiority, Dong Zhuo was granted the title of County Marquis.

County marquises were not considered precious in the early Han Dynasty. Liu Bang was very generous to his old brothers. Later, the emperors of the Han Dynasty also conferred the titles of marquises of county marquises, the only difference being the big and small counties.

The only exception is the Marquis Wushuang, who is an exception in the remote border.

Taifu and Shangshuling, Dong Zhuo has reached the pinnacle of his life in one step.

It's just that this is still far from meeting the requirements of Dong Zhuo and Li Ru. What he wants is a regent who is over [-] people, and what Li Ru wants is the ability to change the world.

In the hall, Dong Zhuo went up to the hall without any scruples and sat first on the left. Luo Kong was kneeling on the right in a robe. Dong Zhuo looked at Luo Kong and said with a smile, "Will Marquis Wu Shuang go to Luoyang with His Majesty?"

When Dong Zhuo was not ferocious, he still looked like a kind and fat man. His current behavior did not reveal that he had once faced Luo Kong to the death, and even almost chopped Luo Kong with a knife.

Luo Kong's eyes were deeply guarded, and he said indifferently: "I always have to accompany His Majesty."

Dong Zhuo took another deep look at Luo Kong, stood up and said, "The Marquis Wushuang must protect His Majesty well, I will arrive later with King Chen Liu."

After speaking, he bowed to Liu Bian, and then left the hall directly. The guards in the hall were all dressed in iron armor, and they were all Dong Zhuo's people. They were extremely cautious.

Li Ru walked at the end, walking very slowly, and then turned his head in front of the palace gate. He completely ignored Liu Bian and asked Luo Kong directly: "Wu Shuanghou, you are from the Luo family. I hate it too, why don't you want to join us and create a new world?
In this new world, Rockwell will not change and remain brilliant. "

Luo Kong looked at Li Ru with a complicated face. Every time he saw Li Ru, he understood why the family always emphasized that virtue was more important than talent. The danger of these geniuses doing evil was too great.

In addition, it is necessary to open a clear upward channel. These outstanding people who can change the world are not willing to be inferior to others.

If the court does not want them, they will flow to the localities; if the localities are no longer needed, they will go out to other countries;

The fact that the Xiongnu became stronger back then had a lot to do with the defection of the Han people.

It is always said that the rebellion of a scholar failed in three years, but it would be terrible if a scholar assisted in the rebellion. Look at Li Ru, who has cultivated Dong Zhuo, a prince who can compete for power in the world, in more than ten years.

How many people like Li Ru are there in the world?
How many are gathered in the hands of the court?The decline of the Han Dynasty is really unjust.

Hearing Li Ru's words, Luo Kong replied straightly: "Differences in Taoism do not conspire with each other, Li Wenyou, you are too extreme, and Dong Zhuo, he is not worthy to fulfill your ideals. Your lord chose the wrong one. Your great cause It will become a bubble and disappear into nothingness.

Choosing Dong Zhuo is not as good as being loyal to the Great Han Emperor in front of you. At least you treat His Majesty well, and His Majesty will trust you. "

Seeing Luo Kong, Li Ru didn't refute the one about hating the wealthy and nobles, but he directly denied himself and Dong Zhuo, looked up at the emperor again, cupped his hands, turned around and left without saying a word.

Liu Bian was terrified by Li Ru's stare. Li Ru's appearance was similar to Jia Xu's and he was more kind, but the coldness in his eyes and the gloomy aura all over his body made him look like a ghost. Same.

In terms of xinxing alone, Li Ru and Jia Xu are similar, they are both good at intrigue and trickery, and they will do anything by hook or by crook.

But the difference between the two is that Li Ru is too obsessed, while Jia Xu has the idea of ​​rejuvenating the family in his heart, but it is not strong and belongs to the attitude of resignation.

Jia Xu thought that I would live, and Li Ru thought that he would die.

"Junhou, is the Taifu going to kill me?"

Liu Bian said tremblingly, he was so scared that he didn't even claim to be himself, Luo Kong sighed in his heart, Liu Bian was really not suitable to be an emperor.

He is not the same as Emperor Xiaohui. Emperor Xiaohui is actually quite assertive, but there is Empress Gao in the front and King Luo Wen in the back. It is obvious that he is not good enough.

Liu Bian really can't do it!

It is definitely not a good thing for the ruler to be weak and the ministers strong. It is very difficult to maintain the majesty of the monarch when the ministers are strong, and there must be evils breeding in it.

Luo Kong looked at Liu Bian with pity in his eyes, he could already foresee that Liu Bian's end would not be very good, and said softly: "Your Majesty, the queen who will accompany you will also accompany you."

Compared to Liu Bian, Luo Kong felt that Tang Ji was more worthy of pity. Liu Bian was the eldest son, and this was his fate. Tang Ji, a little girl who knew nothing but became a queen, was completely implicated.

Luo Kong's consolation still had some effect, Liu Bian grabbed Luo Kong's sleeve, "Your Majesty, are we going back to Luoyang?"

"Yes, we are going back to Luoyang."

Liu Bian's eyes suddenly lit up, Luoyang is the only place that can bring him warmth, "It's good to go back to Luoyang, I can see my mother when I go back to Luoyang."

But Luo Kong only had worries in his heart. The Luo family had accumulated prestige in the Han Dynasty for so many years, and he dared to rely on the army to directly kill Luo's son. What else would he not dare to do?
After all, this was an internal political struggle. Luo Kong didn't expect Dong Zhuo to kill people directly. It can only be said that Bianjun's military reputation is well-deserved.

Now is just the beginning of troubled times, and people like Dong Zhuo who dare to trample on conventions and unspoken rules have appeared. Fortunately, he still has some awareness of being a political figure in his heart, so he didn't directly take action.

But if such a person becomes unscrupulous in the future, he may be a demon king in the world.

……

From Chang'an to Luoyang, although there is a long journey of thousands of miles, the Xiliang iron cavalry will go all out, and it will not take long.

On the straight road, smoke and dust rose and fell, and groups of cavalry full of murderous spirit galloped past. The Xiliang army was almost out in force. It can be called as cloud-like as the sea.

Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, and Hua Xiong, the second-rate school lieutenants in the Xiliang Army, are all rare cavalry generals and fierce generals. Even Dong Zhuo himself is a fierce man who can draw a strong bow and go into battle. .

The Xiliang army is rushing towards Luoyang.

The front army has already set off, but the middle army and the rear army are still in Chang'an, ready to go.

Luo Kong, Liu Bian and Tang Ji were sitting in a carriage, Luo Kong was inseparable from Liu Bian, fearing that Dong Zhuo would attack Liu Bian, Liu Bian and Tang Ji sat on both sides of Luo Kong.

Tang Ji was younger than Liu Bian, and appeared stunted. She was a rather insecure little girl, and Luo Kong was the only person she could rely on.

"Going to Luoyang now, it's hard to tell the difference between life and death."

Luo Kong had an ominous premonition in his heart, but he didn't know where the slightest premonition came from. Liu Bian is now the emperor. Could it be that Dong Zhuo dared to kill the king directly?

In the old palace of Chang'an, Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Bian who was leaving, turned his head to look at Li Ru, and said fiercely in his eyes: "Wen You, the emperor is alone with Marquis Wushuang, which is not good for us.

Moreover, Liu Bian is cowardly, without the air of an emperor, how can he dominate the world?
Ugh.

Wushuang Hou made Liu Bian emperor because of his own selfish desires, which is to disregard the world.

As the son of the Luo family, but for his own selfish desires, this father is a loyal man, and the late emperor was close to him, so he must not sit idly by!

Chenliu Wang Congying, Lingdi is an only husband, but after all, he is my benefactor. He wants Liu Xie to be the emperor, so I should fulfill Lingdi's last wish, instead of making Chenliu the emperor.

What does Wen You think? "

Liu Bian never imagined that Dong Zhuo, who respectfully greeted him as his superior some time ago, would want to replace him so soon.

Hearing this, Li Ru shook his head and said, "My lord, it's not possible for now.

There is also a prince in Luoyang City, who is the second son of Emperor Ling, who must have been welcomed as emperor by those rebels now.

Liu Xie is a concubine, his status cannot overwhelm Liu He, so he can only use Liu Bian's undisputed eldest son status to suppress Liu He.

We have both the authorization of the Emperor Ling and the rule of law, so that we can remain invincible.

As for your concerns, I understand.

Just wait until Liu He is deposed from the throne, wait for an opportunity to get rid of him, and then get rid of Liu Bian. At that time, only Liu Xie will be left, and he will naturally become the emperor. The death of his two brothers will definitely teach him how to do it. "

In Li Ru's mouth, killing the emperor's relatives and even the emperor is as simple as eating and drinking. In his eyes, the emperor's ministers are no different from the pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep in the pen.

Dong Zhuo was once again persuaded by Li Ru, and gradually began to grow a fierce face and said: "Then let him live for a while.

Be sure to take good care of Wushuanghou, and don't let him do anything that is not good for the court.

Entering Luoyang, ruling the world, the Han court collapsed, and Zhang Jiao ascended to heaven, this is God helping me, Dong Zhuo.

If you don't accept what God has given, you will definitely bring disaster, Wen You, your dream and mine are about to be fulfilled. "

Li Ru, who had been expressionless all the time, with a cold and gloomy look in his eyes, actually smiled slightly after hearing this, but the smile was a little dark, and Dong Zhuo looked excited.

Then he patted Li Ru on the shoulder and said, "Wenyou, let's go to Luoyang."

Dong Zhuo walked out of the palace gate with a rather strong body, followed by Li Ru, he looked at the scorching sun in the sky, and wrapped himself in a brocade robe.

……

When the former army of Xiliang iron cavalry broke through the east of the river, the entire Luoyang court rose up as if facing a big enemy.

In Luoyang Palace.

Empress Dowager He and a group of veteran officials of the Han Dynasty all had frost on their faces, and the low air pressure could even freeze people's hearts.

Originally, the officials thought that it would be Wushuanghou who returned to Luoyang, but they didn't expect it to be Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army.

Empress Dowager He looked at the officials in the palace, and then asked a slightly weird question, "Who is this Dong Zhuo?"

Who is Dong Zhuo?

The former governor of Liangzhou and the general who protected Qiang, but Empress Dowager He didn't know who he was, but everyone in the palace didn't think it was strange.

Because not only Queen Mother He, but also many people in the palace who don't know Dong Zhuo.

A Bianjun warrior, if not for a big change, would never be able to enter Luoyang's Bianjun warrior for the rest of his life.

It's a character on the border, but it's nothing in Luoyang City. Who cares?

The officials in Luoyang city are looking for the Sangong Jiuqing and the generals of the forbidden army, that is the ultimate power.

But now, a military man from Bianjun dared to step on the east of the river, and he came to Luoyang without any concealment!
"Empress Dowager, Dong Zhuo is a typical border military man. He has been hanging out in Liangzhou since he was weak, and he has risen to a high position step by step."

In the Han Dynasty, the typical Bianjun Wuren was a derogatory term.

Because Bianjun warriors, as an adjective, contain capricious meanings, this is the impression the whole world has of these Bianjun warriors, whether it is Liangzhou, Bingzhou, Youzhou or the Western Regions, of course, Wushuanghou is an exception.

The capriciousness of these border warriors is not a moral two-faced sword, but a way of survival from the bottom of their hearts. It is a keen intuition after living a bloody life on the border all year round.

Lu Bu is a typical border military man, in fact Liu Bei is also considered a border military man, and he is very diligent in changing allies, but Liu Bei has a high level of personal morality, and he always does his best before changing allies, so no one blames him for this.

As soon as the phrase Bianjun Wuren comes out, it basically defines Dong Zhuo's road to Luoyang, that is, Dong Zhuo cannot be trusted.

"Empress Dowager, Dong Zhuo is a fake Liangzhou shepherd and Sili captain appointed by Emperor Ling, and also assists the prince. Now that Dong Zhuo dares to go to Luoyang, the prince must have fallen into Dong Zhuo's hands. If he uses this decree, we will How should it be done?"

As soon as the voice fell, I heard slightly hurried footsteps coming from outside the hall, and saw the messenger holding a letter-like thing high in his hand, hurried into the hall, then knelt straight down, and said loudly: "The emperor Your Majesty, this is a letter from Mr. Dong."

"what?"

"Dong Zhuo has arrived?"

"Did Dong Zhuo's army arrive, or did he himself arrive?"

This letter immediately caused an uproar in the court, how could it be so fast?
————

In the first year of Zhongping, when Emperor Ling collapsed, Dong Zhuo argued with the crown prince for his successor and made him the emperor. After the emperor was established, Dong Zhuo considered himself a tutor and forced the emperor to bestow princes. The emperor was cowardly and dared not rule. Prince Liu Bu, if you wish to be king, please die, and I will bestow it on you with loyalty and righteousness."

Dong Zhuo's expression changed suddenly, and he said, "Your Majesty is deceiving me?"

Kong Tong suddenly said: "Tai Tu, the first emperor of the sixteen dynasties of the Han Dynasty, King Zhaosheng and King Luowen, can you compare with him?
These two sages are both queens and kings, how dare you be born a king?

Isn't it usurping? "

Dong Zhuo stopped. ——"The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: The Family of the Unparalleled Marquis"
