The Horse of the Three Kingdoms Treads the World

Chapter 101 Dong Zhuo's Request

() When Cao Cao and Cao Cao saw Ma Yue, they were also a little surprised. They thought they could see Dong Zhuo, but how could they meet such a young man.But they still entered the hall, and after reporting their identities, they looked at Ma Yue very strangely, waiting for him to introduce themselves.

Ma Yue then smiled and said: "Getting off the horse, Yue is an aide under Mr. Dong's account. Today, he heard that you two came to see him, so he took the liberty to let you in." Calm, but in fact Ma Yue is very aware of his mood and can express it with excitement.

In fact, it has been three years since he came to this era, and he has seen many people who have left their names in history, but whether it is Dong Zhuo or his brother Ma Chao, these people are not as famous as the one in front of him who has a very good figure and appearance. Ordinary Cao Cao, for this great figure who played a pivotal role in the history of the Three Kingdoms, Ma Yue inevitably had a strange impulse in his heart when he saw him.It was precisely because he wanted to see the side of this famous "Jian Xiong" in history that he invited the two of them to come in to see Dong Zhuo when he was not in the mansion.

Just as Cao Cao guessed, after controlling everything in Luoyang City, Dong Zhuo began to consider how to legalize his actions.And this requires the approval of the emperor. Today, Dong Zhuo just entered the palace to ask the emperor for this belated will.

"Ma Yue? I haven't heard of it." Yuan Shao absolutely didn't have any affection for this young man who dared to talk to him so much. He just smiled contemptuously and said, "Then why hasn't your lord come out yet? Let's come over." But I have something important to discuss with him." There was still a bit of domineering in his tone.

For this, Ma Yue was not angry, he knew that the two people in front of him were of high status, and he really didn't need to entangle with such a small person like himself, so he just smiled and said: "Please forgive me, my lord is not in the mansion now. But if you have something to explain, you can tell me, some things can still be decided by me."

"Tell me? What is your identity, but you are just a clean-up customer, and you have such a big tone!" Yuan Shao was suffocating anger in his heart. If he saw Dong Zhuo himself, it would be fine, but he didn't expect that he would condescend To come here unexpectedly to meet such a lowly aide, this made him even more unhappy, so he wanted to leave in a huff.

"Brother Benchu, please wait a moment!" Cao Cao over there was much more patient than him, and at the same time saw the fact that Ma Yue was by no means an ordinary aide.If it was an ordinary staff member, it would be impossible to let them come in and talk without the master's permission, not to mention the respectful attitude of those soldiers in front of the gate towards Ma Yue, so his status under Dong Zhuo's subordinates was naturally not low.

With this understanding, Cao Cao's attitude was much better than Yuan Shao's. He smiled and handed over to Ma Yue: "Since Brother Ma claims to be able to be a bit of a master, then I will stop talking around the bush. The two of us People came here for only one thing, that is, I don't know when Dong Gong will be able to cancel the martial law that has been imposed on Luoyang City in the past few days. Now, the influence of those eunuch rebellions has been exhausted, and thousands of people will always be there if they arrange this way It's not a problem to guard the streets. Also, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty also need to go to their respective yamen to handle business, but they don't go out recently. This is really... So Cao came here to hear Dong Gong meaning."

"It turns out that Brother Cao came here because of this incident. I really know a little bit about this." Ma Yue was a little proud of calling Cao Cao Brother Cao, but he quickly suppressed his mood and continued: "In fact, according to Dong Gong's original intention, after restoring the order in Luoyang City, it is natural to change this temporary practice. However, brother Cao must also know that sometimes Shangguan also has to listen to the opinions of those below. Yes, and this time it was the sergeants who followed the lord thousands of miles to Luoyang to rescue him who were very dissatisfied with the court's attitude, which made the martial law continue.

"Our Xiliang soldiers have guarded the frontier for the imperial court for many years, and have fought several battles with Qiang people and other foreign tribes. All of them have made meritorious service for the country. In recent years, the imperial court has rarely expressed this, not only the following Sergeant, even the lord was only named the governor of Liangzhou, which already chilled the hearts of all the soldiers.

"But this time the court was in trouble, the soldiers still came thousands of miles to rescue without hesitation. But I didn't expect that after welcoming the emperor back, those adults in the court would ignore us again. This really hurts the hearts of all brothers. Because of this, the brothers wanted to make trouble several times, but it was the lord who understood the difficulties of the court and forcibly suppressed it. Now, what we loyal ministers from Xiliang want is an attitude from the court, an attitude that can make everyone It's just a satisfied attitude, I hope Brother Cao can understand."

After hearing Ma Yue's words, Cao Cao showed a sneering smile on his face: "It's really because the soldiers below are dissatisfied that it makes Dong Gong difficult to order?"

"Exactly. If my lord forces them to retreat, I'm afraid that these grumpy soldiers will lose control and do things that everyone can't bear. So I invite Brother Cao and Brother Yuan I can send a letter to those grown-ups, hoping that they can report to the emperor and the imperial court for the sake of the stability of Luoyang, and reward everyone well to calm the dissatisfaction of the people." Ma Yue ignored Cao Cao's silk The different smiles just put forward their own conditions.

"What do you mean, that you want the emperor to appoint your lord as an official, and then give money and food to reward all Xiliang troops?" Yuan Shao understood what Ma Yue meant, and said angrily, "Do you know that this is Blackmailing the court, can you and your lord bear the charge?"

"My servant speaks lightly, so naturally I can't bear any guilt. However, presumably the two of you, as well as the adults in the court, can't bear the responsibility of Luoyang's rebirth? Please think twice, and don't let it go bad because of a momentary impulsiveness. It's a big deal." Facing Yuan Shao, Ma Yue was more open-minded, and said with a chuckle.

"You..." Yuan Shao was even more angry, but Cao Cao grabbed his hand: "Since Mr. Dong means this, then we two will explain it to the adults in the court. I hope that the court will make a decision." After expressing, Dong Gong can also keep his promise. Farewell!"

"Brother Cao can make the most appropriate choice for the safety of Luoyang's subjects, which I admire." Ma Yue cupped his hands and smiled: "As long as the court is willing to make concessions, my lord will naturally not have any inappropriate behavior."

"I hope so." After Cao Cao said this, he pulled Yuan Shao away.In fact, before coming here, he had guessed that Dong Zhuo would make such a request, but he didn't expect that the one who really talked to him would be an unknown young man, and this was the reason why he felt a little unhappy.

He, Cao Cao, was a man of considerable prestige in the court, and he was the one who dared to have a little friction with the ten permanent attendants who were in the sky.But today it was difficult to gain the upper hand in front of such a young man, which made him quite unhappy.But today is not in vain, at least Dong Zhuo's condition has been confirmed, so he can do something based on it.

But Yuan Shaoke didn't have as many thoughts as Cao Cao, and after he left the door, he still said bitterly: "This kid named Ma Yue is too presumptuous, if you hadn't stopped Meng De, I would have taught him a lesson. Next time I see Dong Zhuo, I will definitely ask him to discipline his subordinates!"

Hearing what he said, Cao Cao's original unhappiness dissipated a bit: "This person is indeed very rude, but I'm afraid you and I can't be moved by a word. Judging from the situation that he was able to see us like this just now , this person should be Dong Zhuo's confidant. A young man, less than 20 years old, can gain Dong Zhuo's trust, this person's ability is extraordinary!"

?????

An hour after Cao Cao and Cao Cao left, Dong Zhuo returned from the palace.But there was not much joy on his face, obviously the emperor didn't give him much what he wanted.After sitting down, he asked Ma Yue: "How, is there anyone coming to the door today? Those Beijing officials don't pay much attention to the people in the hands of a certain person. It has been several days, but no one came to the door." Come on, do you really want someone to meet them in person?"

"My lord is wrong this time, someone has already come to the door today." Ma Yue told the story of Cao Cao and Cao Cao's visit to the door before.

After Dong Zhuo heard this, his face became a little better, but then he said dissatisfied: "How come only these two young people of modest stature come to the door, what can it do?"

"My lord, these two are not comparable to ordinary young officials. Cao Mengde is a well-known figure in Luoyang City, and his grandfather was the great eunuch Cao Song who was in power at the time. He is also very capable. There is a certain appeal among the officials. As for Yuan Shao, his status in Luoyang City is even more special. The Yuan family is the fourth generation and the third prince. His disciples and old officials are all over the world, and he is the direct line of the Yuan family, so his influence is naturally great. If these two people can accept the lord's will and act, the officials will soon report to the emperor, so that the lord can rise to the next level in a legitimate way."

"Oh?" Dong Zhuo felt much better after hearing what he said: "In this way, our plan is about to succeed? The little emperor didn't know who he listened to today, but he just refused to let go. A certain person is serving in the court, but as long as he has a group of ministers to ask for it, he will have no choice but to act accordingly!" Dong Zhuo let out a burst of triumphant laughter, which made Ma Yue's heart feel uneasy, and he couldn't help it. Knowing whether it is right or wrong for me to help make plans like this...
