() Soon after the conflict and dispute with Dong Zhuo, Ma Yue, who lived nearby, knew what had happened.After listening to Wang Feng tell Yuan Shao's actions and words, Ma Yue frowned: "This Yuan Shao is really bold, he has such confidence in his family background, and he believes that Dong Zhuo dare not What about him?"

"Presumably, given the prestige of the Yuan family in the court and the public, it shouldn't be difficult to keep someone?" Wang Feng had also heard about the status of the Yuan family in the court, so some thoughts made him feel that this matter should not be difficult. As for making too much noise.

"Because the Yuan family has a great prestige among the ruling and opposition parties, Dong Zhuo will not spare this Yuan Shao who dares to oppose him." Ma Yue shook his head and said: "Yuan Shao represents the attitude of the entire Yuan family. It is enough to affect the decision of all parties in the DPRK. Now that they find that the Yuan family's attitude is determined to compete with Dong Zhuo, they will naturally follow. If Dong Zhuo wants to further expand his power, he must eliminate the Yuan family. The influence. The best way to eliminate their influence is naturally to rely on the soldiers and horses in your hands."

Wang Feng heard the meaning of Ma Yue's words, and he couldn't believe it: "Young Master, what you mean is...then Dong Zhuo will use force against the Yuan family? Isn't he afraid of causing dissatisfaction from the world?"

"If I knew Dong Zhuo, he would definitely do this!" Ma Yue said confidently, "In his eyes, the four generations and three princes, the old disciples and old officials all over the world, everything is false, only It is true that soldiers and horses are in hand, so he will not take the Yuan family's reputation seriously. If the Yuan family is willing to admit their mistakes and hand over Yuan Shao who offended him to him, Dong Zhuo may still consider using peace. Otherwise, for his own prestige, Dong Zhuo will not show mercy! It is obvious that the Yuan family, which has been at the head of the court for many years, will never bow their heads and weaken their reputation like this. It will bring unimaginable disaster to them."

Wang Feng was silent. As for his understanding of Dong Zhuo, he certainly couldn't compare to Ma Yue.Now that he said it with such conviction, things would naturally not change.But he was also very worried that once Dong Zhuo really did something wrong to the Yuan family and caused this trouble, people from Xiliang would definitely become the target of public criticism, and Ma Yue was one of them.

Seeing Wang Feng's hesitant expression, Ma Yue knew what he wanted to say: "Do you think I will be implicated in this way?"

"Yes, my lord. After all, the Yuan family is different from other officials. Once they really forge a deep hatred with them, the consequences will not be optimistic. Even a person like Dong Zhuo with a large army in his hand will have a headache, let alone your lord." You. That’s why I think you’d better persuade Dong Zhuo not to make irreversible mistakes in a moment of anger.”

"No, after Yuan Shao scolded Dong Zhuo, everything is irreparable. Dong Zhuo has always been a man, he must pay back this revenge with blood! Neither I nor Li Wenyou can persuade Dong Zhuo. Turn back..."

"Then aren't we really going to be enemies of the whole world?"

"That's not that serious, his Yuan family is not so powerful." Ma Yue added in his heart: "But if Dong Zhuo really made the move of abolishing the emperor and setting up a new one, he would really become the world. Enemy."

"But..." Wang Feng was about to say something more, but was interrupted by Ma Yue waving his hand: "I have a countermeasure for this matter. Since Dong Zhuo has decided to attack the Yuan family, we should find a way to let him settle this matter." Do it more satisfactorily, I think tomorrow morning, he will send someone to ask me to discuss important matters."

Seeing Ma Yue's confident appearance, Wang Feng didn't say anything more, and retreated after saluting, but his face still had a look of worry that couldn't be eliminated.

?????

Ma Yue's guess was still a bit off. The next morning, Dong Zhuo did not immediately send someone to discuss with Ma Yue how to deal with the Yuan family, but instead entered the palace.His current goal is still to abolish the establishment. As long as he can successfully establish Liu Xie, the king of Chenliu, as the emperor, Dong Zhuo's power in the court will inevitably increase, and then it will be easy to find an excuse to eradicate the Yuan family.

But the fact was that he wanted to oppose him. At the court meeting that day, when the people arranged by Dong Zhuo proposed to abolish the emperor and establish a new one, some people immediately jumped out to oppose it.And as the first person stood up, nearly [-]% of the courtiers also expressed that they could not accept such a rebellious behavior, and the one who played a leading role was the head of the Yuan family, the current Taifu Yuan Wei.

Although Dong Zhuo's influence in Luoyang City is very large now, and many officials are afraid of his military might and can only obey his arrangements, but the appeal of the Yuan family who has been in high positions for a long time in the court cannot be underestimated.What's more, after all, this matter is related to ministers' festivals, and most people don't want to leave a bad name in the history of themselves for helping the tyrants and abusers, so under the leadership of the Yuan family, they strongly opposed Dong Zhuo's theory of abolishing the establishment.

After all, Dong Zhuo's foundation was still shallow. Under the opposition of his officials, he could not pass this act of abolishing the establishment in a proper way, so he had to leave bitterly.But when he left the main hall, he had already made up his mind that he must eradicate the Yuan family as an example to others!

Although he hated the Yuan family to the bone, Dong Zhuo was clear about one thing, that is, the reputation of the Yuan family in the government and the public was extremely high. He recruited some of his most trusted subordinates to discuss how to deal with the Yuan family, and Ma Yue was of course one of them.

"Yuan Kai and these people are really hateful. At this moment, they still want to fight against the lord! My lord, as long as you order, we will take people to raid their Yuan's house and hang all their heads on the gates of Luoyang. Let's see who else in the court dares to embarrass us!" After he couldn't say a few words, the angry general Li Que spoke harshly.These generals have the most irritable temper and the most unscrupulous actions, so they shouted and killed them as soon as they opened their mouths.

Guo Fan, who was his partner, also echoed: "That's right, now the whole of Luoyang is in our hands, so what is a mere Yuan family? As long as the lord nods, we can kill all of them."

"You all think things are too simple. The Yuan family will naturally be punished, but you can't act so recklessly, it will only bring endless troubles to the lord!" Li Ru saw that the other generals also jumped. Yue Yu tried, worried that Dong Zhuo would be provoked by them and give the order to do it, so he quickly interrupted their conversation.

"Mr. Li, don't build up other people's aspirations and destroy our prestige. What is the Yuan family's ability to cause us endless troubles. Those courtiers are fine with lip service, but when it comes to strength, what are they?"

"That's right, when we entered Luoyang City today, didn't they also look aloof. But now, these people still have to act according to the face of the lord. Now just give them a little face, and these people are still Self-righteousness has risen, we must not tolerate them to continue!" Another general stepped forward and said.Obviously this time Dong Zhuo's humiliation did make all the generals feel angry, so everyone shouted and killed.

Li Ru smiled wryly and shook his head, and had to say to Dong Zhuo: "Master, it is not difficult to kill a Yuan Kai, or even kill all the Yuan family in Luoyang. But the Yuan family has deep roots, and it is not only the Luoyang branch. We have really dealt with these people, I am afraid that the Yuan family forces located in various places will not let it go. At that time, once they collude with local forces, it will definitely cause a greater disaster than Dingyuan in Bingzhou. Please also My lord, think twice."

Dong Zhuo listened to the endless debate with a sullen face, but didn't say a word.It wasn't until Li Ru said this that he took a look at his most trusted counselor: "Then is this the case? In this way, what prestige is there in Luoyang? Even if you raise tens of thousands of troops, in Luoyang In the eyes of those people, it’s just a defense of a city, so why do they control the court?”

"This..." Li Ru was momentarily at a loss for words after hearing this.He also understands the consequences of not dealing with the Yuan family. Compared with the other consequences, this is better.So he still insisted: "My lord, we can always find a way to solve this matter. As long as we spend more time, we can always make those courtiers bow their heads and obey our wishes. My lord, court affairs are different from fighting on the battlefield. The most taboo thing is Blindly using force, and sometimes giving in a little bit, is also a means..."

"Zhongling, do you have another opinion?" Dong Zhuo was impatient to listen to Li Ru explaining these principles to him. He was just a general stationed in Xiliang, and he was not good at keeping an eye on the officials, so he directly attacked him. Cut him off and ask about Ma Yuelai.

Ma Yue was actually very clear about Dong Zhuo's attitude.After suffering such a big loss, he will definitely not let it go, and in history, he also killed all the members of the Yuan family in Luoyang. This is something that no one can stop.Therefore, it is impossible for Ma Yue to hold the same opinion as Li Ru, and gave another suggestion: "My lord, what the Yuan family has done clearly shows that they are going to be enemies with us. If we keep them, it will definitely make us grow up." The morale of those who refuse to obey orders. So I believe that the Yuan family must be eliminated!"

Speaking of this, he glanced at Li Ru, and then said: "But we can't underestimate the power of the Yuan family, so before we take action to get rid of them, we must come up with a legitimate reason."

"That's not easy, just say that they have colluded with the eunuch party, just kill them." Li Que said disapprovingly.

"No, maybe this statement is enough to deal with ordinary people, but not the Yuan family!" Ma Yue shook his head: "I think that fighting in the court alone is not enough to ruin the reputation of the Yuan family and give the lord a reason to kill them. We must find a way out from the people below!" Then he explained his strategy in detail.

After Dong Zhuo and others heard his plan, their eyes lit up: "It is indeed a good way to kill with a knife!"

Immediately, Dong Zhuo said again: "Zhong Ling, since you came up with this idea and you are relatively free recently, I will leave this matter to you."

Ma Yue was taken aback when he heard this, he had no intention of meddling in this kind of matter, but since Dong Zhuo said so, he couldn't refuse, so he could only agree: "Yes, I will definitely get things done next time." Unexpectedly, because After an idea came up, he wanted to change his previous low-key behavior, which made Ma Yue not sure whether it was a blessing or a curse.
