Chapter 193 Luoyang Celebrities Are Blind

If we say who Dong Bi admired the most during the 200 years of the Eastern Han Dynasty after coming to this era, there are only two people.

General Fubo, Ma Yuan, has never lost a single battle all his life, and can be said to be victorious in every battle.And since he inherited the legacy of General Fubo, he often heard Cheng Fang tell about the heroic deeds of General Fubo galloping across the northwest, making the enemy fearful.In his heart, Dong Bi felt that without General Fubo, Liangzhou in the northwest would still be in chaos.

But if you say you admire Ma Yuan, then you respect Dingyuanhou Banchao and Dong Bi from the bottom of your heart.

In his previous life, he knew the story of Ban Chao's contribution to the army in the history class of the school, but in this era, he knows that Ban Chao's achievements are by no means as simple as what is said in the history textbook.Ma Yuan defended Liangzhou, but Ban Chao expanded his borders and made an expedition to the Western Regions, making 36 countries submit to the feet of the great Han and admire the glory of the Celestial Dynasty.

It can be said that Ban Chao's attack is comparable to Huo Qubing.

It can be said that without Ban Chao, Liangzhou today is likely to still be ravaged by foreigners from the Western Regions and the Huns.

Ban Zhi hurriedly supported Dong Bi, "My lord, Ban Zhi is just a down-and-out person, how can he be so valued by an adult."

Dong Bi didn't pay any attention to the class, and after reaching the ground with a bow, Fang straightened up.

"Brother Ban, this obeisance is not to you, but to Ban Dingyuan, the great-grandfather of squad leader Shi, please do not refuse."

"This……"

"There are only two people who you respect in your life, one is Huo Huoqi, and the other is Ban Dingyuan. Born in Liangzhou, you naturally know Ban Dingyuan's achievements. I only regret that I was born many years late, otherwise even if it is for Ban Dingyuan is also willing to lead the horse."

"Don't dare, don't dare!"

Ban Zhi kept on being polite, but there was infinite pride in her heart.

Huo Hussars is Huo Qubing, the champion of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, and Hussars General Huo Qubing.Huo Qubing's achievements naturally need not be repeated. Dong Bi compared Ban Chao and Huo Qubing. Just this honor moved Banzhi deeply.

Since his great-grandfather Ban Yong was framed by Dunhuang prefect Zhang Lang in the second year of Shun Emperor Yongjian, he was dismissed from prison and almost died in prison.Since then, the Ban family has been in a slump, and has never been able to reproduce the prosperity of the year.Fast forward 60 years, and in the generation of Ban Zhi, almost no one still remembers the descendants of the Ban family.The only few acres of Susukida in the family were lost because of saving Yan Ming.

Ban Zhi didn't even dare to tell others that he was a descendant of Ban Chao.Because the current him is just a gangster in Luoyang City.It's fine if you can't glorify the lintel of the Ban family again, and you must never tarnish the face of your ancestors again.

If it wasn't for Yan Ming's eloquence, and if it wasn't for Dong Bi's sincerity, Ban Zhi still wouldn't tell the truth.

But even so, when he mentioned his ancestors, his face was extremely ashamed, and he lowered his head, not even daring to look at Dong Bi.

Dong Bi can naturally understand the sadness in Ban Zhi's heart.

He drank a bowl of wine and said: "Brother Ban, listen to my brother. No one in this world is going smoothly, as long as we don't underestimate ourselves, there will be no difficulties in this world. Just now I said that heroes should not talk about their origins. , now I want to give my brother another sentence: Mo Chou has no confidant in the future, who in the world does not know the king? I hope you will cherish it."

Hearing this, Ban Zhi felt as if there was a warm current surging in his heart.

The grievances and setbacks he had suffered for so many years flooded his mind in an instant.

Couldn't help but burst into tears.

That cry is heart-rending, and the desolation of the hero's end is exhausted.

That night, Ban Zhi was drunk, and Yan Ming was also drunk.The two brothers laughed for a while, cried for a while, and finally fell to the ground and fell asleep soundly.

Dong Bi was still awake, so the guards sent the two of them into the wing room.

Walking out of the gate of the small courtyard, he stopped abruptly.Looking up at the sky, I saw that the night was full of stars, which were extraordinarily bright.

No more than three generations of prosperity...

Ban's family may be the best proof.Starting from Ban Biao, Ban Chao, Ban Gu, and Ban Zhao were the most prosperous, and they flourished to the extreme, and began to decline when Ban Yong was in power.And yesterday's Ban family, will it be tomorrow's Dong family?
Dong Bi couldn't help hesitating, and stood outside the small courtyard for a long time, then he let out a long sigh and strode away.

What will happen to him tomorrow?As long as I do well today, that's enough...

Why worry about things in a hundred years?What is the difference between that and unfounded worry?
******
The next day, before dawn, Cai Yong sent chariots and horses to take Cai Yan, who was already standing tall, into the gate of the mansion.

Dong Chu, Lu'er and Ren Hongchang came out in person and greeted them outside the gate of the mansion.

Today's Cai Yan has lost all the amorous feelings she had when she was at Chilechuan Ranch. On the contrary, she is showing the moving beauty of motherhood in her gestures and gestures.With one hand on his belly, he whirled gently, and there was a happy smile on his face.

I can only see Dong Lv so envious.

When Ren Hongchang mentioned this matter yesterday, she was still a little reluctant.

But now, all the knots in her heart seemed to be gone, she kindly called her sister, and helped Cai Yan into the hall.

In the hall, Dong Bi told Cai Yan about Ren Hongchang's idea.

At first, Cai Yan was also a little reluctant. After all, he was his own flesh and blood, but he wanted to...

But after thinking about it, all of this is for the good of her and the Cai family.What's more, it wasn't her who was most wronged in this matter.

She and Dong Lu and Ren Hongchang were very good sisters, and the three girls talked for a while, and the barriers disappeared.

Seeing this situation, Dong Bi felt relieved.

"Sister, you're taking care of yourself at home. I'm going to lead the Luan Guards to the North Palace today. I have a lot of things to do, so I won't accompany you. If you have anything to do, tell Lu'er... Hongchang, call Li Xin and Sima Xiang'er , let's set off together."

Ren Hongchang agreed and walked out of the room.

Dong Bi stayed with Cai Yan and Dong Lu for a while, and was about to leave when Dong Lu stopped him suddenly.

"Master, I have something to tell you."

"what's up?"

Dong Lv pulled Dong Bi out of the room.At this time, the sky has been brightened.

A woman was sweeping the aisle, with her back to Dong Pi and the others, all she could see was her graceful and moving back.

Although it has entered the end of summer, the weather is still relatively hot.

Therefore, people's clothes are not too thick.The woman was wearing a coarse cloth dress, her arms were exposed, and her skin was as delicate as suet jade.Xu Shi was tired, straightened up with the broom in his hand, and raised his hand to wipe the fine beads of sweat on his forehead, making him look even more lazy and charming.

"Remember her?"

The second monk Dong Yuzhang couldn't figure it out, looked at the back in doubt, shook his head and said, "I can't remember."

"She is the wife's wife of the county that attacked us in Anxi County... What are you going to do with all of their family when you capture them here? Is it possible that you plan to imprison them for the rest of their lives? Sister Gan, she is a very good person .”

Well, Mrs. Kimball...

Dong Chuan remembered.

It has been more than half a year in a flash, and I really don't think the time is so fast.

When Liu Bei's family was captured, Dong Bi didn't think about how to deal with them.Later, Lu Zhi interceded, and he locked Liu Xuande's family in the mansion.Dong Lu suddenly mentioned this matter to him, and Dong Bi really had a headache.

Released?

Dong Bi was not reconciled.

But don't let go?

Dong Bi felt troubled again.For a man who can tell that brothers are like brothers and wives are like clothes, being Liu Bei's wife is destined to suffer hardships.But just like Dong Lu said, you can't just raise your life like this.

Dong Lu said softly: "The third brother has been a little weird recently."

This topic was too jumpy, and Dong Bi couldn't react for a while.

"what?"

"I mean, Shasha... Shasha is very weird recently. He used to like to practice martial arts in the school grounds the most, but recently, he ran to the inner house very diligently. Every time he came, he was not looking for me, or helping sister Gan with work, that is……"

"You mean, Sha Sha..."

Dong Bi understood what Dong Lu meant, and felt a little incredible.

Dong Lu nodded, "Basically, I think this matter is almost inseparable. Mr. Gong, how do you think about this matter?"

In the distance, Mrs. Gan had finished cleaning the aisle, and when she turned around, she happened to see the two of them.

"Good morning, my lord!"

"Good morning……"

Looking carefully, Mrs. Gan's appearance is above average, even worse than Lu'er.

However, her skin is delicate and has a jade-like feeling.The most important thing is that Mrs. Gan has a kind of obsequiousness, which is not deliberately artificial, but a natural obsequiousness.It's very similar to Ren Hongchang, but with a bit more maturity that women only have.

Dong Bi didn't dare to read any more. After saying hello, he turned to Dong Lu and said, "Lu'er, you can make up your own mind about this matter. Discuss it with your sister and see how to deal with it...I have too many things to deal with at home. I'll leave it to you. As for Rusha... you can figure it out. I don't think anyone can stop this matter, if he really likes it... Forget it, forget it, you can figure it out. After coming up with an idea, Just tell me, it’s better to be proper anyway.”

After finishing speaking, regardless of whether Dong Lu understood or not, she left in a hurry.

Outside the gate of the mansion, Dian Wei followed closely behind Dong Pi.

"Second brother, do you have something on your mind?"

Dong Bi smiled bitterly: "Brother, do you think it's time to find a woman for Shasha?"

"Ah, this... probably should be. Recently, Rusha is very weird, and he doesn't pay attention when practicing martial arts. He often loses his mind. He doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, but climbs to the roof to watch the stars. Ask him, and he doesn't say anything, anyway. God said."

It looks like she is really falling in love!
Dong Bi was very distressed.It's normal for Shamoko to miss women.But the woman he thought of was Liu Bei's wife, which is not normal...

"Second brother, do you know what's on Shasha's mind?"

"Know a thing or two!"

"What the hell is going on!"

"What else can happen, miss a woman!"

The voice was a little louder, and the three daughters of Ren Hongchang behind heard it, and couldn't help laughing out loud, seeing Dong Bi turning around, they hurriedly covered their mouths again.Ren Hongchang was better, with a mask covering his face, but Li Xin and Sima Xiang'er had to endure it, their delicate bodies trembling wildly on the horse, quite a different style.

Even if Sha Moke likes these two, it won't make people feel so troubled!

"Forget it, forget it, let's talk about the rustle later, go to the Luanwei camp first, and then go to the North Palace to take over the defense."

After Dong Bi finished speaking, he shook his head vigorously, and heaved a long sigh in distress.

******
Luan Weiying moved, although she was a woman, she didn't have much trouble.

It was mainly some heavy weapons, but even so, there were hundreds of carts full of them, and they left the West Garden in a mighty way.

For the girls in Luanweiying, West Garden is a sad place.

When leaving the West Garden, no one looked back, as if they had no connection with this place.

Immediately afterwards, they entered the North Palace.

Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, the first ten servants, met with Dong Bi. After all, they are the managers of the Beigong. Although Dong Bi is not affiliated to them, on the surface, they still want to visit.

Along with it, there are ten large boxes filled with gold.

When Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong saw the gold, their eyes lit up, and the smiles on their faces were like blooming chrysanthemums.

"Nephew, you are really polite!"

The soft voice, with a strange and sharp voice, made Dong Bi's hair stand on end, and he felt a little shuddering.

However, there was no expression on his face, and he said with a look of respect: "Father once asked someone to deliver a letter, saying that he was able to achieve what he is today, thanks to the care of the two uncles. Therefore, let me thank you very much. Mere courtesy is not a respect. .”

"Oh, is that what Zhongying said?"

Zhang Rang nodded with a smile, "I said earlier that Zhong Ying is a man of loyalty, and it's not thanks to us for helping him so much. However, nephew, you made a big fuss a while ago, and now you are in this palace. The courtyard is no different than the outside, you can't let your temper pass you by..."

"This... my nephew really messed up a bit earlier, and I will definitely be more cautious in the future. I need the two uncles to take care of me in the future."

"Take care is what it should be..."

Zhao Zhong quacked with a smile: "But it's not as serious as Mr. Zhang said. If you have anything to do, come to us. For Zhong Ying's sake, we two elders can't stand by and watch. Young people, impulsive Some of them are normal, how can you be like those old and sour generals all day long, how can you show your true qualities as a tiger and wolf general?"

The implication is to say, continue to deal with those partisans, we support you!
Dong Bi sneered in his heart: Are you looking at my father's face?In my opinion, it is because of the face of these golds.

However, he still replied very respectfully: "My nephew will definitely keep it in my heart."

After exchanging pleasantries, Dong Bi finally left the two sissies and took a deep breath outside, feeling very painful.

This Luo Yang, how long will he be considered tall!

I heard that Chen Dao and the others did a good job in Zhangye, and that's where I made my career.

This lifeless inner palace is really going to crush people to death... Dead eunuch, rotten ass, fuck you.

The curses in my heart belong to curses, but things can be considered to be done properly.

Dian Wei has a formal official title, Beigong Zuodu, with a salary of five hundred shi, is an official recorded in the court.

As for Ren Hongchang, he also successfully became the right supervisor of the Beigong and the false captain of the Luanwei Camp, guarding the safety of the palace.

Because of Shi Changshi's explanation, everything went very smoothly.

The Luanwei camp has entered the North Palace and has a Nuoda palace school, which is a hundred times better than it was in the West Garden.

Taking over the Beigong, there will naturally be many cumbersome things.

Dong Bi was busy from morning to night, and was extremely tired.

Since a large number of Beigong Imperial Guards were replaced and neglected in training, they were no longer useful.

Seeing this situation, Dong Bi transferred Zhang Xiu and the five hundred Bo Langshi over here, and appointed Zhang Xiu as Sima of the Beigong Army, who was in charge of stationing outside the palace.

At least on the surface, Beigong's defense is completely new.

But Dong Bi knew that the five hundred Bo Langshi were still useless, without three months of training, it would be difficult to reborn.

However, these things cannot be changed overnight.

Anyway, he has plenty of time now, take his time, and don't be in a hurry.

That night, Zhang Xiu stayed at the Beigong school grounds, and Zhang Xiu was also very satisfied with this arrangement.

Dong Pi and Dian Wei returned home and slumped on the grand master's chair as soon as they entered the door.

Seeing Shamoke walk in with a happy face, humming a little tune of Wuling Mountain, he seemed very happy.

"Second brothers, why are you so tired?"

"Nonsense, you'll know when you go over and see... what Imperial Guards are, they're just a mob. Don't look at 5000 people. Give the trolls to me, and I can completely wipe them out in a stick of incense. I really feel sorry for those equipment."

Dong Bi didn't speak, but looked at Sha Moke up and down.

Sha Moke had a ghost in his heart, and his expression became unnatural...

"Shusha, what are you hiding from us?"

"Oh, no, no?"

"Really do not have?"

"Not really..."

"Okay, tomorrow you will bring Wuxi Man to the North Palace with me."

"Ah, this... we'll go in a few days, okay?"

Dong Bi sneered, "Shusha, look, my elder brother and I are as tired as grandsons. You have nothing to do at home, so go and help us. I plan to train the soldiers tomorrow, and your Wuxi barbarians can be used just in time. It's better than being bored at home, for a long time, I'm afraid something will go wrong."

Sha Moke was very embarrassed, "Second Brother, I..."

Dian Wei interrupted Sha Moke, "Starting tomorrow, our three brothers will be on duty in Beigong, one day each."

"Ah? Then you can't go home?"

Dong Bi wanted to force Shamoke's thoughts, so he nodded immediately, "When on duty, whoever is on duty can't leave for a whole day. Back then, the old barbarian king asked you to follow me to make you promising. Well, like this Well, tomorrow I will report to you and arrange a position for you, I am sure the old barbarian king will be very happy, do you think this arrangement is good?"

Sha Moke scratched his head, a little moved, but hesitant.

At this moment, Cheng Li came in, "My lord, Ban Zhi and Yan Ming are asking to see you."

"Oh?"

Dong Bi sat up straight, "Please come in!"

After speaking, he looked at Shamoke again, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Shasha, think about it carefully, and let us know if you have any difficulties. We three brothers, there is nothing we can't say, we need help from my brother and I, and we will definitely help you." you."

After finishing speaking, Ban Zhi and Yan Ming walked in.

Dianwei took Sha Moke to leave, and Dong Bi asked the two of them to sit down, "What's the matter, two brothers?"

Ban Zhi and Yan Ming looked at each other, then knelt down in the hall together.

"My lord, the two of us discussed it today, and I want to take refuge with you, please take me in."

Dong Bi hadn't thought about this before, but it was quite sudden to be kneeled down by these two people.Quickly stood up and helped, "The two brothers have something to say, why bother? Get up quickly, get up quickly..."

Ban Zhi said seriously: "My lord, although my two brothers have no talents, they can still do the work of leading a horse and stirrup. Today, I discussed with my brother for a whole day, and I have been living in this Luoyang city all day long. I have really let you down." He is a good man. My class has also learned martial arts and read military books, and my brother has natural supernatural powers, can split tigers and leopards, and I am willing to serve you."

Dong Bi helped the two of them up, "The two elder brothers come to help me, I naturally wish for it."

Ban Zhi and Yan Ming saluted again, and only sat down after pronouncing their lordship.

"My lord, my brother has been in Luoyang for a few years, and he can gather hundreds of people. They are all low-level rogues... Although they are not very useful, but looking for news, looking for someone, etc. I am familiar with the road. I know that the lord is now an official of the court, and there are some things that cannot be personally involved. These people just happen to be able to serve the lord."

Dong Bi's eyes lit up when he heard this.

How did I not think of this?If these people are there, can Luoyang hide anything from me?
Can't help but pay attention to Ban Zhi, nodded and said: "Brother Ban continues."

Ban Zhi said: "My lord is now a captain in Beigong. On the surface, whether it is the general or the emperor, even the eunuch takes good care of the lord, it seems very beautiful. But Zhi Zhi thinks that the lord is now It's on the cusp."

"how do I say this?"

Ban Zhi said: "Yan Ming and I hang out in the market, and we are well informed. In fact, Zhi Zhi saw clearly why the lord came to Luoyang, and I believe the lord understands it in his heart. The general seems to favor the lord, but in fact he is on guard everywhere. The lord's father holds the Liangzhou army in his hands. Once the Qiang rebellion is put down, the power will definitely increase. At that time, the general will no longer be able to control it, so the transfer of the lord to Luoyang appears to be a promotion. But it's actually a hostage."

Dong Bi was silent.

What Ban Zhi said was the truth, everyone knew it in his heart, but who would say it face to face?

Since he said it, there must be countermeasures?
"Brother Ben continued."

"Once the general is unable to control the lord's father, the lord's life will be in danger. The reason why the emperor takes care of the lord is probably not because he values ​​your talent, but because he values ​​the military power in your father's hands. The emperor's thoughts, Everyone knows that if the lord's father doesn't support him, he will definitely end up in a miserable end; but even if he supports the emperor's thoughts, once the matter comes true, it will become a knot in the emperor's heart. The lord's family is no better than a general. Security. But once the emperor becomes wary of the lord's family, the result will definitely be worse than that of the general."

Dong Bi closed his eyes, seemingly meditating.

But I was thinking in my heart: This class is so close, I really think far enough!

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that all birds can hide their bows, and Ban Zhi's concerns are not unreasonable.

"Then you say, what should I do?"

"My lord should plan ahead, build a foundation outside, and keep a low profile inside... My lord is in Luoyang, and I should do reckless things. Since the whole world thinks my lord is a reckless man, I can show them my recklessness. One day of chaos in Liangzhou Injustice, the general will not have any scruples; the emperor's wish has not been fulfilled for a day, he will definitely protect the lord carefully. Ban Zhi has a plan, make friends with relatives openly, and secretly cooperate with the imperial party. In this way, it is in balance, and it is absolutely impossible There will be danger."

"Then how to openly make friends with foreign relatives and secretly associate with the imperial party?"

Ban Zhi smiled and said: "My lord, isn't he doing this now? Although Cai Weng is white, he is secretly a member of the Imperial Party. Not only Cai Weng, but most of the entire Dongguan are people from the Imperial Party , including the former hussar general Lu Zhi, who is also one of them. If the imperial party hadn't secretly acted in this catastrophe, I am afraid it would be very difficult to get away like this."

Dong Bi's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes narrowed involuntarily.

In the novel, Ban Zhi never appeared.

Even before that, Dong Bi had never heard of this person at all.But now it seems that this person is not simple.

I have practiced martial arts, read books...

Is it really?

If this is the case, I am really ashamed of being a descendant of Ban Dingyuan.

"Then how to make friends with foreign relatives?"

"Nowadays, the general is in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, and his confidantes are spread all over the place. Even the father of the lord can be counted as one of them. There is a trend that will not go away. The emperor has the intention to divide the military power of the general, but he is worried that the general will do something against him. , so I can only act secretly... My lord is now in control of the North Palace, so I should befriend the prince more. The prince is the hope of the general's future prosperity, so he will definitely trust the lord more. As for the emperor, there is his father to act , so that the emperor will maintain the favor of the lord, because the lord is a son, and he must obey the words of the father. This is a plan that can protect the lord and the father..."

Dong Bi nodded, Ban Zhi's strategy sounded good.

Ban Zhi went on to say: "However, if you do this, you can protect the Lord for a while, but not for the rest of your life."

"Also please advise sir!"

Dong Bi's name for Ban Yi changed unconsciously.

"My lord, you should remember that only when there is a balance between the parties, the lord can benefit from it. But once the balance is broken, the lord will be in danger. To resolve this way, only your own strength is the only way. As long as the lord has enough power in his hands, great things can be accomplished."

"How does this enough power come from?"

Ban Zhi laughed and said, "This power has one light and one dark."

"Appreciate further details?"

"Mingli, everyone in Luoyang City knows that the emperor is planning to form a new army to divide the military power of the generals. It's just that the timing is not yet ripe, and the rebels in Jizhou are back. The emperor will not talk about this matter in the next two years. But once the situation stabilizes a bit, the emperor will definitely bring up the matter of forming a new army again, and when the time comes, my lord must seize the position."

"what?"

"The establishment of a new army will attract the attention of all parties. The emperor will try to use people he trusts, and the lord is undoubtedly an option. The reason why the lord was promoted to the captain of Beigong is probably because he wants to brand the lord with the God Party; and The lord is married to the prince again, and the general will be very happy that the lord can become a member of the new army. As long as you get the military power, the big thing will be settled."

Dong Bi nodded in praise, "It's so good, but what is the power behind it?"

"Due to the palace chaos last year in Luoyang, countless imperial troops were dismissed and left on the streets. At the same time, there are a lot of ruffians in Luoyang. If you can gather them in your hands, it will be a set of eyes and ears. In times of crisis, you can quickly organize It’s just that the lord will spend a little more money, but the advantage is that no one knows that the lord still has a man to deploy.”

Dong Zui stood up with a groan, and grabbed Ban Zhi's hand.

"The people of Luoyang are really blind. They let Big Brother Ban live on the street because of his age. Now with Big Brother Ban's help, there is nothing to worry about!"

After saying these words, Dong Bi grabbed Yan Ming again.

"Brother Yan Ming is familiar with Luo Yang, so he might as well plan this matter for you. Just take the money you need and use it. This matter must be kept secret and thorough."

Yan Ming crawled at Dong Pi's feet, "Yan Ming is determined to do his best and live up to my lord's high expectations."

"The big brother..."

Ban Zhi said with a smile: "My lord, don't arrange an official position for me. I think it's better to stay with the lord. I heard that the lord has a workshop in Zhengyangmen, and I know a little about the business. He is in charge of his affairs, so he is not noticed by others; it is convenient to contact Brother Yan Ming secretly, so that no one will be aware of it, and the clothes will be seamless."

After pondering for a moment, Dong Bi nodded and said, "Just as Big Brother Ban said."
