Chapter 159
Let’s say that Dong Zhuo was stationed at the Sunset Pavilion [-] miles away from Luoyang, quietly watching the changes in Luoyang.

He has written a letter to kill the eunuchs for the second time, but He Jin pretended not to know, and He Hou also stayed in the middle school.

He didn't cover up the matter of the problem, and even made it known to everyone in the world.

So Luoyang, and even the scholars in Sili knew that Dong Zhuo wanted to kill the eunuchs, and his image among the scholars improved slightly.

In contrast, He Jin and He Hou, who protected the eunuchs, were gradually labeled as eunuchs, hated by scholars.

One thing Zhang He said was right, the time is about to enter summer, and some things need a period of time to ferment and spread, so whether it is Dong Zhuo or others, they did not choose to do it.

But not doing it doesn't mean he doesn't want to do it, especially after Dong Zhuo knows that Liu Bei has managed Liangzhou better and better.

The nobles in Liangzhou have gradually recognized Liu Bei and respected him.

Naturally, the power of the Dong family was suppressed to a certain extent.

After all, you are not the big brother anymore, so you should take out the extra share that you originally ate, otherwise what will you give Liu Bei?

Listening to Dong Min's complaint, Dong Zhuo was even more annoyed when he thought of what Liu Bei had done before.

"Wen You, it's okay for Liu Bei to continue to ignore it. Even if we help the Yuan family and end up being made a marquis and a prime minister, what's the point of having a family and not being able to return?" Dong Zhuo found Li Ru.

This son-in-law has never let him down, and I hope this time will be the same.

"Liu Bei has already established a firm foothold. If he wants to use normal means, it may not be so easy." Li Ru analyzed.

After thinking for a while, he said: "However, he made a mistake, that is, he recruited some rebels. At the same time, summer is coming, but the weather in Liangzhou is still cool. If the rebel prisoners suddenly rebelled at this time and opened the border, At the same time, the Qiang people came to kill..."

"Good!" Dong Zhuo was overjoyed, this plan is indeed good.No matter what the result is, Liu Bei cannot escape his responsibility.

It would be great if he could find an opportunity to transfer him, or even remove him from office.

Li Ru is not very optimistic about this plan. First of all, is Ma Teng willing to cooperate? In addition, the Qiang people were pacified at the end of last year, and rioted again at the beginning of the year.

Doesn't it prove that their vitality is not damaged, and in turn it also proves that the father-in-law's achievements in hunting for thieves last year may be problematic.

Fortunately, the court is too busy to take care of itself, and there is no evidence, so it can't do anything to the father-in-law.

As for more methods, it requires layout and investment, but now the father-in-law needs to pay more attention to Luoyang.

The Liangzhou side treats it as a free hand, if it succeeds, it will succeed, and if it fails, it's okay.

A little alienation between Liu Bei and the rebel captives would be a small gain.

"I want to see the envoy!" About five days later, in the labor camp in Hanyang County, Ma Teng asked to see Liu Bei.

There were almost 5000 rebels captured before. In the end, 2000 were left in labor camps, and the other [-] were sent to Luoyang.

It is said that the heads of the thieves were beheaded for public display, and ordinary thieves were all murdered.

Luoyang also didn't have so much food to feed the captives, so he chose the simplest solution.

Thanks to the two thousand left, these are all Ma Teng's original parts.

The usual discipline is not bad, mainly because he has not harmed the people.

But they are rebels after all, and they more or less assisted other rebels to kill the people.

So five years of labor reform and assisting the post-war reconstruction of Liangzhou can be regarded as their atonement.

Zhang He was right, killing them would be the end of the matter, and it would be cheaper for them.

It is better to let them help the people rebuild after the war, and let them see clearly what they have done in the past few years.

During these months of labor, Ma Teng really regretted it.

If you want to say that you were forced to be helpless at the beginning, there are still many ways to prove your innocence.

But after Li Xiangru killed Geng Bi, Ma Teng knew that the only person who could recruit him was gone.

Now looking at those dilapidated houses and guarding his people carefully, Ma Teng's heart really hurts.

Putting aside the exhausting work every day, maybe it’s okay to be too busy to take care of anything.

Seeing the people in Liangzhou suffer, especially because of his own fault, Ma Teng felt that this was a kind of suffering, and he might as well kill him.

"Is it because you want to see the envoy?" The supervisor rarely reprimanded him.

Most of these supervisors are soldiers who have retired from the battlefield, mainly because they are disabled, have broken hands or legs, or are blind in one eye.

If you can't fight on the front line, you can supervise the work in the rear.

He was originally disabled during the suppression of the rebellion, so he naturally didn't have any good feelings for these rebels.

"I have something important to report to the envoy. If you delay, you will not be able to bear the responsibility!" Ma Teng was not afraid of him, at worst he would be whipped twice.

But if something really happened, the other party would peel off his skin even if he was afraid that he would not die.

The overseer didn't believe it at first, but he couldn't be sure for a moment because of his assertiveness, especially his attitude of letting others beat and scold him.

On the other hand, the calmer comrade-in-arms next to him had already rode his horse to the state capital to report.

Liu Bei heard that Ma Teng was looking for him and had important matters to discuss, so he wanted to ask whether he should go, but finally he went.

The main reason is that after asking, I found that Ma Teng has a good attitude in the labor camp in the past few months. He is so busy every day that he is so busy that he works with his hands worn out.

Liu Bei has somewhat of a quagmire, and he has a somewhat favorable impression of this kind of prodigal son.

So he didn't hesitate, and went over immediately.

"Emissary!" Ma Teng said in a low voice when he saw Liu Bei coming, "Two days ago, someone came to Ma and said that he could help us escape, and hoped that we would go to Jincheng County and take refuge in Qiang."

"Do you know who it is?" Liu Bei immediately frowned upon hearing this.

"There are basically only a few people in Liangzhou who can let us go and are willing to let us go." Ma Teng replied.

First of all, it is of course other relatives of the Ma family, but the probability of this is very low.

When something happened to Ma Teng, they all wanted to get rid of the relationship.

Excluding Ma Dai's lineage, there were very few contacts.

Otherwise, how could Ma Teng's lineage have been poor for so long?

As for Ma Dai's lineage, it was only after he became a partial general that he gradually got in touch.

Originally, Ma Dai was arranged to come over to learn martial arts and command troops from him, and gradually entered the army after a few years.

However, he was implicated by himself. Fortunately, he was still young, so he arranged to work in another place with Ma Chao and others.

Basically, they do some tedious but relatively light work. It is said that there is an hour of night class in the evening.

This is also where Ma Teng feels the most. They are captives of the rebel army. Normally speaking, they should be of the Yi tribe.

But I am only a reform through labor, and my nephew only needs to have the opportunity to receive education.

It was just such a relationship, he decided not to cooperate with those people, and instead explained the matter to Liu Bei in private.

"Dong Zhuo?" Liu Bei frowned. In Liangzhou, Dong Zhuo is basically the only one who still refuses to accept him.

It is said that the Wuwei Zhang family has some opinions.

However, Zhang Xiu was under his command, and he was actually from Zhang Ji's line, so he had some opinions in private.

But in front of the huge clan, the opinions of Zhang Jina's lineage are naturally insignificant and cannot affect the family's decision-making.

The Zhang family's decision-making is very simple, that is, whoever brings them benefits, they will obey.

Not to mention that Liu Bei is considered the big brother of Liangzhou now, and there is no one who is disobedient among the wealthy families around him.

"Not sure, the other party didn't identify himself." Ma Teng shook his head.

But apart from Dong Zhuo, he couldn't think of anyone else.

Liu Bei nodded when he heard the words, and immediately asked him to pay attention to see who else that person had contacted with, Ma Teng immediately agreed.

Back at the yamen, Liu Bei immediately discussed this matter with everyone to see Dong Zhuo's intentions.

"What other intentions are there? It's nothing more than planning to frame the envoy, or else disgust the envoy." Ju Shou thought for a while and said.

"It's just that I don't understand..." Zhang He thought for a while, "Even if we let them go, 2000 people are short of supplies, and they barely reached Jincheng County, but the second brother and elder brother are guarding there, so it's a dead end... …unless someone picks them up!"

"Qiang people!" Liu Bei reacted immediately.

"It must be the Qiang people, but I'm afraid they won't come. If they come, they will just send military exploits to the envoy!" Ju Shou laughed.

"Let's hear it?" Liu Bei immediately became interested.
