Prancing Horse Xiliang

Chapter 64 Diao Chan
Early the next morning, before dawn, all the officials lined up to enter the palace, ready to go to court.

Guarding the palace gate is Dong Zhuo's personal army, all of them glaring and murderous.

When all the officials saw these tough Xiliang soldiers, they felt chills from the bottom of their hearts.

Unless it is Luo Zheng who has made military exploits and is quite famous as a general of the Xiliang Army, these Xiliang soldiers will hold their chests up to show respect.Even if the rest of the hundred officials are important ministers like Wang Yun, who are among the most important officials in the court of the Three Dukes, they are not treated this way.

Even if I feel upset, I can only hold back.

When Luo Zheng arrived at the palace gate, he met Lu Bu.

Lu Bu glanced at him, and there was a flash of light in his eyes, then he snorted coldly and strode forward.

Luo Zheng smiled lightly, but he was not in a hurry to enter the palace, and asked a Xiliang soldier guarding the gate, "Has Lord Situ ever come?"

The Xiliang soldier replied: "General, Wang Situ has not arrived yet."

Luo Zheng nodded, just stood aside and waited.

The court officials came one after another, entered the palace one by one, and were a little surprised to see Luo Zheng guarding the side.

However, these bureaucrats have long been savvy figures who have been honed over and over again, so they didn't talk too much, and went to the palace without squinting.

Not long after, Situ Wangyun's carriage finally arrived.

Under the murderous eyes of Xiliang soldiers, the carriage stopped slowly.

After Wang Yun got out of the car, he straightened his court clothes, and then walked into the palace gate with his head held high.

Luo Zheng went up to meet him, cupped his hands and said: "The next official has seen Lord Situ."

When Wang Yun saw Luo Zheng, his face was a little dark, and he said reluctantly: "General Luo doesn't need to be too polite."

Luo Zheng walked in with him, and asked: "I don't know the request of the next official yesterday, did Master Situ think about it?"

Wang Yun forced a smile on his face and said: "Yesterday, the old man asked my little girl, and my little girl is willing to let the old man make the decision. Since General Luo Zheng has a heart for my little girl, the old man will naturally agree to this matter. Is the general satisfied?"

"Satisfied, satisfied!"

Luo Zheng nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "Lord Situ, don't worry, the next official will keep the secret for Master Situ."

Wang Yun's complexion changed again, and he was a little frightened, he didn't dare to talk to Luo Zheng any more, and hurried forward.

There was a sinister smile on the corner of Luo Zheng's mouth, but he quickly restrained himself, corrected his court clothes, and quickened his pace.

The court meeting is boring and boring, basically just going through the motions, there is nothing important to discuss.

After Dong Zhuo defeated the Kwantung rebels, his prestige and power in the ruling and opposition parties had reached the extreme.

The ministers who dared to question Dong Zhuo in the court before were either accused of crimes or demoted, and now they are still standing in the court, they are all stalking and clinging to Dong Zhuo's wall.

Even Situ Wangyun is Dong Zhuo's dog in the eyes of the world.

If he hadn't turned to Dong Zhuo, how could Wang Yun have become an important minister in the court of Sangongdi.

Under such circumstances, who would dare to bring up matters that would make Dong Zhuo unhappy in the early court.

Of course, apart from Wang Yun and Huang Wan, only Luo Zheng knew about Wang Yun's secret plot to kill Dong Zhuo.Even Dong Zhuo himself didn't know that the seemingly obedient Wang Yun was secretly plotting to kill him.

The court meeting will soon end.

Just as the officials were about to retire, Dong Zhuo suddenly said to Wang Yun: "My lord Situ, I heard that your lord has a righteous daughter who wants to call Zhonglang to recruit Luo Zheng as her son-in-law. I wonder if there is such a thing?"

As soon as Luo Zheng heard this, cold sweat immediately came down, and his heart was called a fluke.

I thought to myself that fortunately yesterday I took out Wang Yun's secret plot and forced Wang Yun to commit it.

If not, Dong Zhuo brought it up in front of the civil and military courts and the emperor, and if Wang Yun refused to admit it, the trick he played would be exposed in court, and the consequences would be disastrous.

Luo Zheng secretly thought, it seems that Dong Zhuo is not easy to deceive.

Thinking about it, how could Dong Zhuo be such a bully if he could get to this position today.

If it wasn't for him having a backup, Wang Yun, who was successfully forced, would commit a crime, which would be a lot of fun.

Wang Yun was stunned when he heard the words. He didn't know how Dong Zhuo would know about this matter. When he thought about it, he knew that Luo Zheng must have reported it to Dong Zhuo. There is a matter."

Dong Zhuo asked again, "Why does Master Situ want to marry his adopted daughter to Luo Zheng?"

With Wang Yun in his hands, how could he not dare to say a few good words for Luo Zheng, and replied: "Luo Shengping is good at fighting, and has both wisdom and courage. Husband and son-in-law are also considered to be compatible with each other."

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly and said, "Very kind, Lord Situ has won this wonderful son-in-law, I would like to congratulate him!"

"Thank you, Prime Minister."

Wang Yun hurriedly thanked him, not like an important official of the Sangong.

The rest of the officials and Xiliang generals looked at each other, a little confused.

I don't know what the hell Wang Yun is doing, but he will marry the righteous daughter to Luo Zheng, an unknown person.

What made Xiliang generals even more puzzled was that the lord seemed to know about it, and he seemed quite happy about it.

Only Li Ru knew what was going on, and inadvertently looked at Luo Zhengdi with cold eyes.

His intuition told him that this matter was tricky.

As for where the tricks come from, it is unknown.

After leaving the imperial city, Luo Zheng immediately went to Situ Mansion with great fanfare to hire and propose marriage.

Wang Yun almost pinched his nose, agreed to this marriage, and had to praise Luo Zheng against his will.In the end, at the request of Luo Zhengde's progress, Luo Zheng and Diao Chan were given the opportunity to be alone in a room.

For Diao Chan, Luo Zheng has been famous for a long time.

Since coming to this era, among the women who want to meet the most, Diao Chan ranks first.

This intelligent woman not only has a beautiful appearance, but also has extraordinary intelligence.

When walking, the wind swings willows, and when it is quiet, it is more than elegant.In those clear eyes, there is a heart-breaking sadness hidden deep, it seems to be helpless and desolate to this world, one can't help but melt into it at a glance.

Luo Zheng sat cross-legged on the soft couch without paying attention to his image, looking up and down at Diao Chan who was standing beside him.

Diao Chan bowed her head, her pretty face was slightly flushed.

Luo Zheng satiated his eyes for a while before asking: "I don't know how old the little lady is?"

Diao Chan replied softly: "Xudu Erjiu!"

"That's 17 years old!"

Luo Zheng nodded, the ancient people's place is empty, generally refers to empty years.

Eighteen years old, that is 17 years old.

Luo Zheng asked again, "Where is the ancestral home of the young lady, can you tell me her original name?"

The name Diaochan is an official among the female officials of the Han court, not a personal name.

Diaochan replied: "The little girl is from Yanmen, Bingzhou, with a humble name of Ren Yan and a diminutive of Hongchang."

Luo Zheng kept nodding, and waited for Diao Chan to finish speaking before asking, "This general is going to marry a young lady to pass through the door. Does the young lady have any unfinished business? Let's talk about it. Maybe this general can fulfill your wish with you."

Diao Chan pondered for a moment, then slowly shook her head.

Luo Zheng stopped asking, and patted his side, "Come to this general!"

Diao Chan's pretty face was even redder, hesitating for a while, Lian Buqing moved over, and knelt down beside Luo Zheng.

Luo Zheng held up Diao Chan's chin and examined it carefully. Diao Chan's pretty face was flushed and her eyes were half closed.

"It's really the posture of sinking fish and wild goose, and the appearance of closing the moon and shameful flowers!"

Luo Zheng couldn't help admiring, let go of his hand, and retracted his gaze.

Such a classical beauty with unparalleled appearance and excellent temperament will never be seen in future generations.

No wonder Lu Bu did not hesitate to kill Dong Zhuo for this woman, it was really a disaster for a beauty.

Luo Zheng came out from the inner courtyard, found Wang Yun again, and discussed about marrying Diao Chan.

Wang Yun put on the airs of his father-in-law, and said with a beard: "In September, people will be inspected, and the next month will be celebrated, and the next month will be exchanged, and the next month will be the bride price. The old man has checked the almanac, and next year's June [-]th will be broken, suitable for marriage, good son-in-law You can marry a little girl to pass through the door."

Luo Zheng almost didn't blurt out his mother, this old thing actually wants to delay until next year, obviously trying to play tricks.

If you really wait until next year, it is estimated that the day lily will also be cold.

"No, I will be hired today and get married tomorrow."

Luo Zheng is categorical, maybe find a chance, this old thing will dedicate Diao Chan to Dong Zhuo.

"This……"

Wang Yun frowned and said in displeasure: "Marriage is such a trivial matter!"

Luo Zheng said in a dark voice: "If Master Situ wants to delay until next year, I will go to the Prime Minister to make decisions."

This is a naked threat, the implication is very clear, if you dare to delay, I will report to Dong Zhuo immediately.

Wang Yun's expression changed, and he remained silent.

Luo Zheng didn't say much, he flicked his sleeves and went away.
