Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 16 Helping Dong Zhuo's Emperor
Until this time, Liu Xie finally understood why Dong Zhuo came to the bedroom to look for him after getting drunk tonight, regardless of the etiquette of the emperor and ministers.At the same time, I also understood why Dong Zhuo even confided in his heart, and freely told the words of his rebellious minister who despised the Han court.

If it is true as Dong Zhuo said, the Kwantung Allied Army was cheated by the literati and bureaucrats who cheated Dong Zhuo's trust and used the name and power given by Dong Zhuo to form an anti-Dong alliance. In his heart, he stepped on the most fragile and untouchable bottom line in Dong Zhuo's mind!
At the same time, the most painful paradox for Dong Zhuo was that his authority and arbitrariness came precisely from the young emperor he supported.And, no matter how you say it, in his heart, at least the emperor was also a comrade in the same trench as him at the beginning.But now, once the emperor of the Han Dynasty merges with those outside the Guandong Litong, his already crumbling ruling foundation will suffer further blows.

How could such a sensitive political signal with serious consequences not make this cunning and suspicious frontier soldier drunk late at night, how could it not make him wantonly kill people around him with a sword to vent his anger?However, when alcohol and killing still can't relieve his pain, the only thing he can do is the most simple and straightforward thing in the warrior's mind: ask that little emperor for clarification!
Poor Dong Zhuo is different from Cao Cao. Later, when Cao Cao held the emperor hostage, he could put Emperor Xian of Han in Xu County with peace of mind and wait for Emperor Xian of Han's clothes to be exposed, and then wiped out the few remaining elders of the Han family in the court.Such means and city government are naturally related to Cao Cao's own ability, but at the same time, it is also inseparable from Cao Cao's plausible scholar status, which allowed him to recruit the elite scholars at that time to serve him.

But Dong Zhuo can't do it. He will never get the support of any scholar-officials with experience in political struggle, nor will he have the scheming and vision that Cao Cao raised in an official family since he was a child.Therefore, when he was at a loss, he naturally took such extreme and reckless actions.

However, the sad reality is that even if Liu Xie figured out the reasons for all Dong Zhuo's actions, it would not help him at all in the crisis where his life is hanging by a thread.

Liu Xie, who was carried in the air by Dong Zhuo, seemed to hear the painful squeezing sound of his sternum being broken inch by inch at this moment, and the blood in his whole body was also restrained, which made his brain dizzy, and his complexion was even swollen. Purple.But Dong Zhuo, who was drunk, was completely intoxicated by his anger at this time, and didn't care about Liu Xie's abnormality at all.

The only thing Liu Xie could do at this time was to stretch out his weak arms, and patted Dong Zhuo's arm four times thicker than his in vain.His legs were also hanging in the air and kicking wildly, and his mouth made intermittent sounds that could not be connected into a few simple characters.At this time, what he regretted very anxiously was, what kind of pomp and ostentation did he play to make Leng Shouguang go out and wait outside the palace?It's good now, there is no one around who can save him.

And just when Liu Xie's eyes were about to turn white, his foot accidentally swept over something. With the only memory in his brain and a glance from the corner of his eye, he saw that it was the long handle that Dong Zhuo put on the table. sword.At this time, the edge of the long sword was directed at him.If he possessed martial arts skills, he could have lightly stepped on the foot, allowing the long sword to reverse and fall into his hand with this force, thus piercing Dong Zhuo with one sword!

pity!

In his previous life, the director of the rural neighborhood committee had never even killed a chicken. The only time he got into a fight was when he was beaten by a female classmate in elementary school until he lay down under the desk and cried until he was crying.At this time, even if there is an opportunity in front of him to save the big man in troubled times, he is not psychologically prepared to kill at all!

Not to mention, the series of actions he imagined still had quite technical requirements.Even if he had the resentment to stab Dong Zhuo into a bloody hole with his sword, the reality is that he can't do it at all!
But fortunately, there is finally something that can be used to fight.Liu Xie closed his eyes immediately, and based on the memory just now, he stepped hard on the dangling sword.Because of the excessive strength, the sharp sword was thrown high in front of the two of them.Finally, it fell on the smooth stone surface, making a crisp metal impact sound.

For warriors like Dong Zhuo, such a familiar voice can most immediately wake up their brains.Dong Zhuo, who was worried all day long, was even more sensitive to this. The moment the long sword fell to the ground, Dong Zhuo's ears suddenly shrugged slightly. Under Liu Xie's restraint, he knelt down and knelt in front of Liu Xie for the first time and apologized: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... If you accidentally offend Your Majesty, you deserve death!"

As soon as the words fell, the door of the bathroom was suddenly pushed open. Leng Shouguang, who heard the movement in the room, saw Liu Xie's disheveled bath towel and panting, and saw that the long sword had fallen far away from the two of them. , immediately understood what must have happened, and shouted sharply: "Dong Zhuo! How dare you kill the king and usurp the throne?!"

At this time, Dong Zhuo was no longer as arrogant as last time, and even admitted his mistake in fear: "It's my minister... I was impulsive and offended His Majesty, I deserve death!"

When Leng Shouguang heard this sentence, he was slightly stunned for a moment, and some couldn't believe that the arrogant Dong Zhuo didn't even deny it.After a quick turn of his eyes, he seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly shouted in a trembling voice: "Dong Zhuo! Tonight you are breaking into the forbidden area, drunk and wielding a sword with the intention of killing the king and usurping the throne. There is no crime to be punished! Come here, Take down these traitors!"

Liu Xie, who was struggling to catch his breath, stared at this wonderful scene with dumbfounded eyes, wondering if Leng Shouguang had lost his courage.He is a small forbidden Huangmen, not to mention having no rank or rank, and he is still a eunuch who is despised and despised by thousands of people.How dare he say such words to Dong Zhuo, who is in power and holds a heavy army in Chang'an? What's even more incredible is that his voice was behind the times, and a guard with an ax actually came...

Are these guys tired of living?
Did they really think that, at a time when the Han Dynasty had become a joke, just by grasping Dong Zhuo's little handle, they could really make Dong Zhuo bow his head and catch him?

But when he saw those ax and battle guards slowly approaching Dong Zhuo with conflicting expressions of eagerness to try and hesitation, Liu Xie suddenly saw the cold sweat on Leng Shouguang's forehead and his already whitish fingers clenched tightly. Festival.At this moment, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly realized what Leng Shouguang was doing!
Since he was secretly trained by the former Situ Yang Biao's mansion and sent to protect him, then Leng Shouguang must not be someone so stupid that he can't even see the situation clearly.And the reason why he still tried his best to restrain his fear and risk his life, knowing that he might lose his life like this, was because of the simplest truth: capture the thief first!

Dong Zhuo came here alone tonight, even though he was superior in force, in Leng Shouguang's view, Dong Zhuo was ashamed and dared not to plot rebellion in front of His Majesty.And the guards guarding the forbidden area are all under the jurisdiction of Guang Luxun, and he is the man of Guang Luxun Yang Biao at this time, so if Dong Zhuo is captured tonight, he will pinch the Xiliang army's seven inches.As long as Waichao moves quickly and plans properly, the world of Han will be swept away!
Realizing this, Liu Xie's body suddenly tensed up, and his brain quickly started to think about the success rate of this plan.But just as the dozen or so guards with axes and axes approached Dong Zhuo gradually, and cold sweat began to drip from Leng Shouguang's forehead, Liu Xie saw the obvious disdain in Dong Zhuo's downcast eyes.Liu Xie was taken aback, and suddenly shouted: "Presumptuous! What are you doing?!"

Hearing Liu Xie's sudden yell suddenly, Leng Shouguang's tense nerves seemed to be broken suddenly, but he knelt down on the ground like a conditioned reflex, kowtowed like garlic, and couldn't even say a word of explanation.And those who were also shocked by this loud shout were naturally those guards with axes and axes. Seeing Leng Shouguang kneeling on the ground, they also put down their weapons and knelt down to plead guilty.

At this moment, even Dong Zhuo, who was on the side, raised his eyes slightly, looking at Liu Xie with a confused face full of confusion and interest, completely unable to figure out what Liu Xie wanted to do.

"I'm drinking and talking with the grand master tonight, but it's worth your fuss to make a little noise?" After finalizing the matter just now, Liu Xie glanced at the thoughtful Dong Zhuo in front of him again. When his murderous eyes turned to Leng Shouguang at the side, Liu Xie sighed silently in his heart, and said with pain: "Leng Shouguang, I have said something before, you didn't listen to the king's order, and you even ordered my guards to arrest the Grand Master , It's just the opposite of the sky!"

"Your Majesty, the villain is..." Leng Shouguang thought that Liu Xie didn't understand what he meant, and anxiously wanted to defend himself.

But Liu Xie stared fiercely at Leng Shouguang with cold eyes, patted the case furiously and loudly stopped him: "Shut up!"

When Leng Shouguang heard the words, he didn't know what it was like, grievance, anger, resignation and all kinds of emotions came to his heart, but he couldn't say a word, he could only kowtow silently.Under the anger, he knocked blood on his forehead!

However, Liu Xie didn't seem to care about it at all, and ordered loudly: "Come here, drag out this thing that is guilty of deceiving the king, and kill it!"
