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

Chapter 73, Bloody Luoyang Raises the Sword Again

In November of the first year of Yonghan, winter was approaching, and it was already hard to see the sun in Luoyang.

Under the gloomy twilight-like sky, the bone-scraping cold wind whistled past, bringing strong cold air, which penetrated through the gaps and hollows of the armor, and penetrated into it, and the coldness of the wind overwhelmed the human body itself. The soldiers stomped their feet and couldn't resist the shivering.

The city gate was already bleak. Although it hadn't snowed yet, there was already a strange layer of silver frost on the road, some of which were mixed with mud, and the shape was disfiguring.

At this time, more than 200 meters away from the gate of Luoyang Dongcheng, three figures were wandering on the Chidao.

"What do you think happened to the second master this time? Why is he still staying outside?"

"Second Master has never stayed out at night in the past, and this time it is indeed unusual..."

"Hehe, the second master hasn't come back yet, and the second wife went to Xiangguo's mansion to make trouble, so it's no wonder that Xiangguo is angry."

"Our second master is greedy and lustful. Do you want him not to come out and do things to the yellow-faced woman at home every day? But that's right, this time the second master stayed outside for too long, and the second wife begged to see Xiangguo several times , the old lady also said several times, and then Xiangguo sent us out."

"Hey, isn't that Second Master's carriage?"

"Ah!" This discovery made the three of them exclaim in shock, because they saw a carriage parked alone by the side of the driveway.

Moreover, it seemed that this carriage had been parked here for a long time, and the crux of the problem was that the two horses pulling in front had disappeared at this time.

Seeing this scene, the three people who were talking and laughing all restrained their expressions, and had a bad premonition in their hearts, and then hurried to the side of the carriage. The back door of the carriage that was originally closed was also open , and the three of them had already seen the scene clearly through the gap.

But it's okay if you don't see it clearly, after seeing it clearly, two of them collapsed timidly, and the other one was not much better, trembling when he spoke: "This, this, this..."

There was a bloody corpse in the carriage, with eyes wide open unwillingly. Judging from the degree of dryness of the blood, the time of death was at least before yesterday.

But the people who were supposed to guard the carriage disappeared instead. Obviously they didn't die, but they didn't dare to keep them at all, and they didn't even dare to go back and report to Dong Zhuo. Of course, the three of them understood why. If it was them instead, When they found out that the important person they were escorting had died suddenly, they would run for their lives. Dong Zhuo was not a soft-hearted person who would think that they were just negligent and ignored the death of his younger brother. What's more, this kind of thing was indeed the responsibility of ineffective guards.

The three soldiers sent by Dong Zhuo looked at each other and felt headaches, but they had no choice but to go back and report, at least they would not be executed, but they all thought that this time Xiangguo might really be furious up...

In the main hall of the imperial palace, Dong Zhuo, the prime minister of the court, looked at the officials sitting down with a look of fury on his face, and almost roared out his inner anger: "I don't believe that Cao Mengde is able to do such a great thing by himself. Conspiracy, if this person stands up on his own initiative, that’s fine, otherwise someone will find 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 that he said them, there was resentment in his heart, and his broken voice was even more ear-piercing. In addition, Dong Zhuo’s accumulated deterrence in the hearts of courtiers during this period of time, All the people dared not take a breath, what's more, they were already secretly complaining about the accomplice Dong Zhuo said in their hearts.

It's a pity that fifteen minutes passed, two quarters passed... time passed slowly, and no one stood up.

Li Ru, who was watching these people coldly below, frowned and felt a little bad.

This time he really miscalculated, and Wan never expected that someone would make such a risky move.

According to Li Ru's previous thinking, Dong Zhuo is the core pillar of the entire Xiliang Dong Zhuo Group, including the Xiliang Army, including the Bingzhou Army, and is also the existence most feared by outsiders. But also a little slack.

But starting from today, it is obvious that internal protection measures must be strengthened, especially the existence of Dong Zhuo, the backbone of everyone, we must do everything possible to ensure his safety...

In the Xiangguo Mansion, Dong Zhuo, who was furious in the Jiade Hall to intimidate the officials, immediately lay back on the couch when he came back here. At this time, his face was full of weakness. How could he have the arrogance and arrogance to show off his fierce power in the Yizheng Hall?

In fact, according to Li Ru's calculation, this is a very good opportunity. It can be hypothesized that Dong Zhuo was assassinated, resulting in the leaderlessness of the entire Xiliang Group. At this time, it is inevitable that some people can't wait to jump out, including the person behind Cao Cao. In addition, Cao Cao escaped and no one knows the real situation of Dong Zhuo now, so it may not be impossible to successfully deceive outsiders.

It is a pity that when Dong Zhuo was angry and blocked Luoyang City before, the news that Dong Zhuo was not dead had already spread. It was also at that time that Dong Zhuo considered that if something happened to him, it would cause turmoil in the Xiliang Army, Bingzhou Army and even the Imperial Guard Army. Although Li Ru felt that it was a pity to miss a good opportunity, he immediately thought of a way to make up for it.

Now that it has been announced that everything is fine, let everyone know that Dong Zhuo is not only fine, but also intact, and that Cao Cao, who also knows about it, is fleeing. Secretly arrange people to monitor those ministers, see who among them will have some abnormal behavior, and deduce who is behind Cao Cao's backstage based on this, even if that person is too cunning, it still can't be hidden like this, Li Ru can do it again Make plans to force the dog to jump over the wall, in short, as long as you take the initiative, everything is easy to say.

But this is hard for Dong Zhuo. After all, his injury is still not healed, and his body is also very weak, but he has to look alive in front of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs. It can be said that he has tried his best. The wink made Dong Zhuo announce his withdrawal from the court. I am afraid that Dong Zhuo will not be able to hold on in the next moment and will show his flaws.

As soon as he came back, Dong Zhuo naturally lay down again immediately. Fortunately, his body was not seriously injured after a short period of time, but now his face was visibly pale again, obviously it still had some influence.

"Now everything depends on Wen Youdi..." After this assassination incident, if you want to say Dong Zhuo's biggest change, or the biggest benefit to him, it is to wake him up a little bit, at least to restore him to before When you have something to ask Li Ru more often.

Li Ru pondered for a while, and said: "Ru has made plans for the following things. Now father-in-law just needs to rest in peace and wait for news from Fengxian."

"Feng Xian can really chase after 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 incident of Cao Cao's assassination of his father-in-law, just like Jing Ke's assassination of Qin Tuqiong, who escaped from Luoyang without knowing how to escape the search in the city and the blockade of the city gate, it can be seen that this person is quick-witted and courageous, and there may be someone else behind him The enemy is in the dark, and Fengxian is in the light. If you are marching and fighting, Fengxian will be nothing to worry about. However, although he has some quick wits, he has little experience in dealing with such situations. Confucianism fears that Fengxian will be taken advantage of by Cao Cao if he is not careful."

"Then Fengxian is not dangerous?" Dong Zhuo was a little worried, but he valued Lu Bu very much.

Li Ru smiled and said, "Father-in-law doesn't have to worry, Fengxianji people have their own aura, so nothing will happen to them, and we will send a few Xiliang troops to hunt them down later, which is also an insurance policy."

Dong Zhuo nodded naturally, but Li Ru said in his heart: "I hope it is true that auspicious people have their own appearance, otherwise father-in-law will lose his arm, and the situation will be difficult!"

At this moment, someone outside the door suddenly came to report: "Xiangguo, Xiangguo, the second master, the second master..."

Dong Zhuo who was lying on the couch got up suddenly, and Li Ru had already stood up, of course he knew that the second master mentioned by the other party was Dong Zhuo's younger brother and Dong Yuan's uncle Dong Min.

"What's the matter with him?" Dong Zhuo's voice was strong, but Li Ru could tell that he was still trembling and weak, and was trying to persuade him to take care of his health. The second master's body was killed, the second master... died..."

Ah!

"Someone wants Luoyang to flow into rivers of blood today..."

After saying this sentence, Dong Zhuo felt dizzy for a moment, and a mouthful of blood was squeezed in his throat. It took a long time before he spit out "wow", and then he couldn't hold it anymore, and fell into a coma...
