Chapter 63 Dong Zhuo's Daughter
In the early spring of the third year of Guanghe, Luoyang received a memorial from Jincheng Chief Shi Han Sui.

According to the memorial, Bei Gongbo, the new captain of the west, had a fierce conflict with Chen Yi, the prefect of Jincheng. The two sides attacked each other at the end of the second year of Guanghe, and Chen Yi and Bei Gongbo were killed one after another. riot.

Fortunately, Han Sui came forward to mediate and calmed down the Qiang tribes.

To the effect that, blah blah blah.

……

This memorial did not attract excessive attention in Luoyang.

The riots in the Qiang tribe in Xiliang, let him go, as long as the Han family's country is not in chaos.

However, the death of the prefect of Jincheng and the death of the western captain is not a trivial matter after all.Emperor Liu Hong didn't care too much this time, and generously placed the two official positions on Han Sui's head together.The former celebrity in Xiliang, Jincheng Changshi became the most authoritative person in Xiliang overnight, which made many people unacceptable.

And the one who couldn't accept this fact the most was Dong Zhuo who was on patrol in Hedong.

"Where's Yu'er? How's Yu'er?"

When Dong Zhuo heard the news of Bei Gongbo's death, his head buzzed and he immediately became a mess.He swayed a few times, almost fainting.Fortunately, there was a general beside him who had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and stepped forward to support Dong Zhuo.

"My lord, please take care!"

The general was nine feet tall, with a tiger body and wolf waist, a leopard head and ape arms.A face as dark as the bottom of a pot, and a pair of ring eyes like copper bells.Black beard under jaw, straight nose and wide mouth.He stood behind Dong Zhuo with a nervous expression on his face.

Dong Zhuo shook his head vigorously and pushed the general away.

Grabbing Li Ru's arm, he shouted, "Hurry up, what's wrong with Yu'er? Is there any news about her? Wen Zheng answered quickly."

What is Dong Zhuo's background? He is a well-known hero in the Northwest, Kong Wu is powerful.

Li Ru gasped after being caught by him, and said with a wry smile, "Father, there is a report from the court, how could it be possible to talk about Eldest Sister?"

"Yeah, yeah, how could it be... Yu'er is so smart, how could she turn against Chen Yi and cause conflicts? Then Chen Yi is just a scholar with no strength to restrain a chicken. With Yu'er's help, Beigong Bo How can you die in battle?"

Dong Zhuo said: "This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

Li Ru glanced at the general behind Dong Zhuo, "Wen Kai, I'm sorry to bother you to watch outside the door. I want to have a few words with my lord."

"Wenzheng, don't be polite...My lord, please give me your condolences, Wenkai will leave!"

The general finished speaking and left the room.He closed the door smoothly, and then stood ten steps away from the door.

Li Ru hesitated for a moment, "Father, Ru also thinks that this matter is strange. How can Chen Yi be the opponent of the elder sister and the elder brother-in-law? What's more, the elder brother-in-law has a tiger and wolf general beside him. How could the elder brother-in-law died?"

Dong Zhuo was startled, and said in astonishment: "The general of the tiger and wolf? Who is it?"

"Father, have you forgotten that Ah Chou is by Eldest Sister's side? When Second Sister came last time, I mentioned to Ru that Ah Chou is very close to Eldest Sister... He knows his temper well, whoever If you treat him well, he will repay you ten times. After receiving the report from the mansion, Ru wondered, how could Ah Chou watch the eldest brother-in-law lose in battle?"

Dong Zhuo suddenly realized, "Yes, Ah Chou is by Yu'er's side."

Although he is not close to this son, Dong Zhuo also knows that his son who looks like a monster is young but has unstoppable courage.Hearing Li Ru mention Dong Pi, he couldn't help feeling a little bit of doubt and uneasiness in his heart.

"Confucianism believes that this matter must have something to do with the Korean agreement."

"Wenzheng, what do you mean..." Dong Zhuo shuddered, and his eyes, which were like bull's eyes, suddenly showed murderous intent.

Li Ru nodded and said: "When I was a Confucian boy, I heard someone mention Han Sui. He is very scheming and resourceful. He is very prestigious among the 36 Qiang tribes in Xiliang, not only respected by the Qiang people, but also by the Qiang people. Even the members of the Qingliu Party appreciate him very much. If he wants to play tricks, Ru thinks that no matter how smart the eldest sister is, she may not be a match for Han Wenyue."

Dong Zhuo said angrily: "If it is really Han Wenyue, I will kill him!"

"Father, please suspend the fury of Thunder, I'm afraid it's not so easy to touch Han Wenyue now."

Dong Zhuo said, "Wenzheng, what do you mean by that?"

"Han Wenyue is now the prefect of Jincheng and the captain of the western region. In terms of official position, he is as old as you; in terms of prestige, he may not be less famous in Xiliang than you, but among the members of the Qingliu party, you are far inferior to him " After Li Ru finished speaking, he looked at Dong Zhuo in fear.Seeing that Dong Zhuo didn't react too much, he went on to say: "Besides, if the eldest sister's matter is really related to him, I'm afraid Han Sui has become wary of us. Also, he won the prefect and captain easily this time. Although the official position in Jincheng is remote and desolate, no one wants to go there, I'm afraid there are still..."

"You mean, Zhang Rang?"

"If it weren't for the ten permanent attendants, what virtue and ability would he have in Han Wenyue to take up the post of prefect?"

Dong Zhuo gradually calmed down, knelt down and nodded, "I feel the same way when Wen Zheng said that."

"Father, your foundation is not stable. It is not appropriate to turn against Zhang Rang and other eunuchs at this time. Moreover, this matter will definitely make the general look bad. You think that the western captain was won by you and the general. , but such a thing happened, the general must be very angry, blame you for being ignorant. Your most urgent task now is to get the understanding of the general, and at the same time form a good party... A solid foundation is the most important thing for you now Something to think about."

Dong Zhuo greatly appreciated what Li Ru said.

"If it wasn't for Wenzheng, Zhuo would have almost missed a major event. It's just..."

"If my father believed it, Ru would like to seek help for him. It's just Han Wen's appointment... If Eldest Sister is fine, Ah Chou will definitely protect her to go home. Ru believes that it is the best policy to hold back until she has definite information about Eldest Sister. "

"Just according to Wenzheng."

Dong Zhuo and Li Ru planned for a while, and were about to get up when they suddenly heard a commotion outside the door.

The two looked at each other, and couldn't help but feel strange: Who is so courageous to make a loud noise outside the door?

"Wen Kai, who is making noise?"

Dong Zhuo and Li Ru pushed open the door and walked out.

I saw a dressed-up man shouting loudly at the door: "I am a member of Lintao Dong's family, and I have something important to report."

The general was unmoved, "The Lord is discussing important matters, don't interrupt."

"You get out of the way!"

"If you keep making noise, don't blame my sword for being ruthless."

Dong Zhuo happened to come out at this time, and he couldn't help nodding his head when he heard the general's words.

"Wen Kai, let him come over."

Hearing this, the general quickly turned sideways to make way.The family general hurried over, held up a letter with both hands, and knelt down on one knee under the steps, "Master, there is something wrong at home, and the mistress ordered the villain to report it, so I made a noise outside the door. Please punish me, master."

Dong Zhuo frowned, feeling an ominous omen in his heart.

He glanced at Li Ru, Li Ru immediately understood, went down the steps and took the letter from the man.

Turning around and walking up the steps, he put the letter in Dong Zhuo's hand.There was sealing paint on the envelope, and it was stamped with Mrs. Dong's seal.

After hesitating for a while, Dong Zhuo reached out and picked up the letter.

He opened it and took a look, his eyes suddenly straightened, his hands trembled, showing an expression of anger and sadness intertwined.

"Father?"

Li Ru noticed that Dong Zhuo's expression was not right, so he couldn't help but stepped forward and yelled.

But Dong Zhuo yelled loudly at this moment: "True, true, true... It hurts me too!"

A mouthful of blood spurted out, and Dong Zhuo fell on his back, unconscious.Li Ru shook his hands and feet immediately, "Come on, come on!"

Some family members from the mansion ran over and were shocked when they saw this situation.

Hastily lifted Dong Zhuo up and sent him to the bedroom.Li Ru shouted loudly: "Hurry up, hurry up and invite the doctor."

The general had already turned his family to the ground, and the sword was placed around his neck, "Where are you a monster, how dare you come to harm the lord?"

"I'm not a demon, I'm not a demon..." The family general shouted loudly: "I am under the command of the young master, my surname is Dong, my name is E, and my name is Baimo... My name is given by the eldest lady. I am not a demon, let me go quickly .”

"General Wen Kai, he is a member of the Lintao Dong Mansion."

Li Ru had heard of this name before, and Dong Zhao had mentioned it when he came last time.

After all, it was the eldest sister who personally gave the name and surname, so Li Ru also had some impressions.The general was startled, and put away his sword.

"Wen Kai, please protect your father and wait for the doctor to come."

"Here!"

Dong Zhuo was in a coma, so Li Ru naturally became the one giving orders in the mansion.He walked over and bent down to pick up the bloody letter, and asked Dong E to stand up again.

Glancing at the letter, even a calm person like Li Ru couldn't help but change his face.

"Eldest sister, is elder sister really dead?"

Dong E was still in shock, but when he heard Li Ru's question, he quickly and respectfully replied: "My lord, the young master returned to Lintao from Hanyang County in the middle of March, and brought it back... Mistress heard that the eldest lady died, and at that time Then I passed out... Then I got sick, and even the doctor couldn't do anything about it. The fourth lady saw that the situation was not good, so she ordered me to deliver the letter."

Li Ru read the letter at a glance.

"Han Wenyue, Han Wenyue...I will kill you!" He stamped his feet and yelled, crumpling the letter into a paper ball with both hands.
