Lu Bu, the god of war in the rebirth of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 45: Marry a granddaughter?Marry a princess?

(Amen! I’m finally back at school, hehe, I rushed to work out of this chapter without taking a break, I hope it won’t be too late; and today I hope to resume two more changes, mainly depends on whether the meeting will be late at night, I will Try to catch up before twelve o'clock~)

In October of the first year of Yonghan, everything seemed to start all over again.

The new emperor came to the throne, and a new generation replaced the old one. I don't know how many changes have taken place in the imperial court from top to bottom, but all of this has nothing to do with Lu Bu for the time being.

As for Dong Zhuo, he is busy doing another thing now, which is to promote himself. Of course, before that, he also needs to improve his position. However, he and Li Ru have discussed this matter several times, but no one knows. What kind of conclusion they came to in the end, but Lu Bu guessed a little bit, or guessed it based on the "impressions" in his mind.

As for his own people, how to promote them one by one, Dong Zhuo did not take it easy, but called together Li Ru, Lu Bu, the generals of the Xiliang Army, Zhang Liao of the Bingzhou Army, and even Cai Yong. The ministers who stood on his side in the court are naturally regarded as his staff now, to discuss and discuss how to make a decision.

In fact, this kind of thing is basically useless for military generals. Even if they can speak, they can't say anything constructive, and Lu Bu, who knows a little bit, would not speak easily on such occasions, so the seats for generals in the back are basically empty. Silence, in fact, is that Dong Zhuo, Li Ru and Cai Yong said a lot, and Dong Zhuo obviously knew this, and didn't want to ask the generals themselves.

Lu Bu was quite bored about this, but he didn't expect that when the topic changed there, the atmosphere of the scene changed a little bit. When he looked over in surprise, he heard Dong Zhuo cough lightly for a while, and then began to say: "Next, Mr. Bo Jie proposed, A certain one also agreed, and there is a question about the emperor's marriage."

The emperor's marriage?

Lu Bu was very surprised, because he couldn't think of anyone other than the current Liu Xie as the emperor Dong Zhuo was talking about. It couldn't be the dead Liu Bian, but Liu Xie was only nine years old when he was talking about marriage?

"So..." Dong Zhuo didn't know what Lu Bu was thinking, but he hesitated to talk about it, but he seemed to have encountered some kind of problem, and he couldn't continue after pondering for a long time. Everyone was very surprised, but Lu Bu vaguely guessed something, and subconsciously glanced at Li Ru who was silent.

"Cough cough..." Cai Yong coughed lightly, and said instead of Dong Zhuo: "Xiangguo means that the new emperor ascends the throne, and the world should be celebrated, but many people in the world don't understand Xiangguo, and want to give his granddaughter to His Majesty in order to rectify his name... "

Hearing this, everyone understood that Dong Zhuona hesitated because of his son-in-law and mastermind Li Ru.

Dong Zhuo has many daughters, but there is only one granddaughter so far, and that is Li Ru and Dong Yuan's daughter Xiaoni.

Speaking of starting from Hedong, Li Ru has been following Dong Zhuo all the time. After marrying his daughter, his relationship has deepened, and he has always been relied on as his right-hand man. The relationship between the two has always been close. Dong Zhuo has always trusted and valued Li Ru. It can be said that among Dong Zhuo's subordinates, Li Ru is the one he trusts the most and relies on the most.

But now he wanted Li Ru's daughter to marry the little emperor. He couldn't say anything about this kind of thing, because everyone wanted to know what the consequences would be, so he didn't know who came up with the idea.

Lu Bu couldn't help but glanced at Cai Yong, wondering if it was him?

But from the beginning to the end, Li Ru, who was the focus of everyone's attention, remained silent and did not express any opinions, and his face was always calm, making it hard to see what he was thinking.

Cai Yong coughed lightly again at this time, and continued: "In the past, He Jin came to a humble family, but Empress Dowager He made great progress after entering the palace, and was pushed as the mainstay by the courtiers during the chaos of Chang Shi, because her status has changed. The majesty of the royal family is naturally not to be underestimated. Although Xiangguo is in power today, his reputation outside the country is not very good, and it needs the approval of Luoyang Qinggui to truly gain a foothold here, and marriage with the royal family is the only choice."

Everyone was speechless, but they felt that this matter was really not good for them to express their opinions. It all depended on how Li Ru would treat it, and whether Dong Zhuo had made up his mind on this matter.

However, Lu Bu became more and more sure that this plan must have come from Cai Yong, and he could roughly understand his thoughts.

Cai Yong was forced by Dong Zhuo to join him for a while, but the Hanchen in his heart was full of thoughts. Since he could not stop Dong Zhuo, he began to try to guide Dong Zhuo, especially the death of Empress Dowager He and Hongnong Wang Liu Bian shocked him a lot. Reminiscent of the death of Empress Dowager Dong earlier, I don't want to see the little emperor Liu Xie follow in their footsteps and suffer a tragic end.

But even if he wanted to do his best to protect him, but he was powerless, he could only start with these side ways.

To a certain extent, what Cai Yong said made sense, but he ignored or deliberately ignored that the situation of Liu Xie at this time was fundamentally different from that of Liu Hong at that time.

Although Liu Hong was incompetent, he was in charge of the government anyway, and he was able to make decisions on many matters. Even when the world was in chaos at that time, his status as the co-lord of the world did not change. fierce, but they dare not take Liu Hong seriously, just because he is the emperor, the Ninth Five-Year Lord, and the real lord of the world; but what about Liu Xie now, what does he have?There is nothing but the name of an emperor, and no one listens to what he says, and the position he holds now is still being pushed to it by a powerful minister amidst controversy, what a tragedy.

Liu Hong married Empress Dowager He and named He Jin, these are his exclusive powers as the emperor, and if Liu Xie married Dong Zhuo's granddaughter, could Dong Zhuo also be as high-ranking and powerful as He Jin?Of course not, because the driving force behind all this is actually Dong Zhuo himself. People in the world will not be blind if they are not stupid, even if they are convinced by their mouths, they will not be convinced in their hearts. His humble origins are often criticized by the world.

At first glance, Cai Yong’s strategy seemed to be Dong Zhuo’s consideration, but it was actually just to find a big backer for the little emperor Liu Xie, that is, Dong Zhuo himself. Just think about it, Dong Zhuo would not be so cruel that he would treat his only granddaughter... ...'s husband-in-law, shall we do it?He had to consider the feelings of his granddaughter, daughter, and son-in-law, especially his son-in-law Li Ru, who was his most important right-hand man. His opinion held a pivotal position in Dong Zhuo's heart, so this decision was not so easy to make.

This is also an advance insurance for Liu Xie. Even if Dong Zhuo is rebellious and wants to do something at that time, Liu Xie can at least save his life, and also keep the blood of the royal family. As for other things, Cai Yong is unable to take care of them now.

Lu Bu thought that Cai Yong had a good idea, but even if Dong Zhuo agreed, he would never agree, because it was just like what he said to Dong Yuan that time, "Xiao Ni called me uncle".

So at this time, the generals looked at each other in blank dismay - Li Ru, the Xiliang Army's military commander, was no worse than Dong Zhuo in their hearts, but they were not good at participating in this kind of discussion, so naturally they didn't know what to say now; The others, including Li Ru, were silent, but Lu Bu stood up, cupped his hands and said, "I don't agree!"
