The Nameless of the Common Clans

Chapter 173 In Wenming Garden

"There was turmoil in Luoyang yesterday. Is everything okay here?" Chen Mo didn't return home all night, and he didn't have any rice or water. When he got home, Yun Si had already prepared meals, and Chen Mo asked while eating.

"Someone came to break into the door, but they were chased away by my brother." Yun Si nodded. It was so chaotic last night, and he was a little dishonest in thinking about this place. After all, although there are mostly rich households here, but There are also some mansions belonging to wealthy businessmen or some down-and-out families. Some bold people want to take advantage of the situation and rob them, but they don't dare to really break in when they meet celebrities or those with many nursing homes.

"Thank you." Chen Mo swallowed the food in his mouth, looked at Chen Deng and smiled.

"It's self-protection, why do you say thank you?" Chen Deng shook his head, and then sighed: "It's just that the great Han Dynasty, Zuo, is struggling like this because he is afraid that the country's destiny will be unstable."

"Everything in the world is unpredictable." Chen Mo nodded. This was also what he was worried about. After Dong Zhuo came to Beijing, if he stayed on and helped save Dong Zhuo, he would definitely be rewarded by high officials, but how is this different from a threat? To make matters worse, there are other people coming from all walks of life.

If one is not careful, there will be another military turmoil, and Luoyang will be completely unable to stay.

"Brother, do you think Mr. Benchu ​​can control the situation?" Chen Mo looked at Chen Deng and said.

No one expected the current situation. Although most of the governors from various places were former officials of the Yuan family, could they really listen to Yuan Shao? Things like people's hearts will change, especially after taking power.

Chen Deng shook his head. No one could be sure about this kind of thing before it happened. It all depends on Yuan Shao's next method.

Sitting opposite Chen Mo, Chen Deng thought: "Now that the general has been killed suddenly, all the ministries in Luoyang are leaderless. Luoyang is in the most chaos at this time. In addition, powerful armies are entering Beijing one after another. If we can't control the military power as soon as possible, there may be a great chaos!"

Chen Mo took a hard bite of the meat pie. At this time, he could clearly see the crux of the problem, but he couldn't take action. He looked at Chen Deng and said, "With my merits, can I take away the title of Luxun?"

Chen Deng shook his head: "It's difficult!"

Even if he had the merit of rescuing the emperor, the emperor still favored Chen Mo, but Guang Luxun was directly in charge of important positions such as Huben Zhonglang General, Yulin Zhonglang General, Wugan Zhonglang General, etc. Even Yuan Shu was under Guang Luxun, how could Chen Mo seize it? ? If you really give it, will Yuan Shu let it go?

The advantage of Luoyang officials like Chen Mo over foreign generals like Dong Zhuo was that they were close to the emperor and could help each other, but the disadvantage was the same. They couldn't blatantly take over each other. Many things had to be distributed among themselves first. What to do now? Once he died, the distributor became the Yuan family. Now Yuan Shao has a greater say in the army. It depends on what Yuan Shao does.

In Yuan Shao's case, Chen Mo will definitely not be pulled down. It is possible to give Chen Mo another army. But for a position like Guang Luxun, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, and He Yong are all watching. From every aspect, it is his turn. Not to Chen Mo.

"Let's wait for tomorrow, there will be results tomorrow!" Chen Mo also knew that there was almost no possibility. Even with the help of the Chen family, there seemed to be nothing he could do. He sighed. Now that he has one more soldier from the school, he can do more. some.

"Sir!" The steward quickly came to Chen Mo, handed an invitation to Chen Mo and said, "President Dong sent someone to deliver the invitation."

"Dong Zhuo?" Chen Mo reached out to take the invitation and frowned: "Only invite me?"

Normally, if there was a banquet in Luoyang, both he and Chen Deng would be included in the banquet. Today Dong Zhuo only sent one, which meant that Chen Deng was not included.

On purpose or not knowing?

Chen Mo opened the invitation and Dong Zhuo was planning to entertain courtiers at Wenmingyuan today.

"What's wrong?" Chen Deng noticed that Chen Mo's expression suddenly changed, and he was a little confused. It was a normal banquet. Dong Zhuo had just come to Luoyang, and it was a normal thing to entertain Luoyang celebrities and officials.

"I always feel that something is going to happen. Dalang, go to the military camp and call Dian Wei. You and Dian Wei will go with me today." Chen Mo couldn't explain clearly. When he thought it was just an ordinary banquet, his eyebrows suddenly jumped. Usually this reaction occurs when the system god gives him a sign. Of course, it may also be due to convulsions.

He just checked and found that his luck had dropped a lot for no reason. This was not a good sign, so he asked Dalang to call Dian Wei.

"What can I do?" Chen Deng looked at Chen Mo and shook his head with a smile. Dong Zhuo was not a fool. He made trouble when he first came to Luoyang. That was because he didn't want to mess around anymore.

"I don't know, just be prepared." Chen Mo shook his head and said.

He always felt that his brother was hiding something from him, but he didn't feel comfortable asking. Chen Deng could only nod his head, but saw Chen Mo staring at him again. Chen Deng was a little embarrassed by the sight: "Brother Mo, why are you looking like this?" I?"

"Nothing, a little tired, thinking of something." Chen Mo shook his head. Chen Deng's luck and destiny have not changed. In other words, this matter will only involve himself, or Wen Mingyuan, Chen Deng was not invited , so luck and destiny have not changed.

"It's still early, Brother Mo, let's go and rest. When the time comes, I'll ask Juan'er to call you." Chen Deng said with a smile, thinking about it, Chen Mo might be really tired after running around all night yesterday.

"No, there are still some things to deal with." Chen Mo shook his head. He was not too tired physically. Many soldiers also contributed to what happened last night. Chen Mo planned to take advantage of this period to complete the credit book first. When the time comes, Even if they can't be promoted, at least they can get some rewards from the court.

After Chen Mo made his merit list, it was already late and Dian Wei had arrived. Chen Mo changed into a Confucian robe and hung the Chengyuan Sword on his waist. He took Dian Wei and Dalang straight to Wenming Garden.

Dong Zhuo also had some friendships in Luoyang. Moreover, this time he led troops to Beijing, and Xiliang warriors were outside the city. The Manchu ministers had to give Dong Zhuo some face, and they came quite well, but the three princes like Yuan Wei The character didn't come.

"Good brother." Cao Cao waved to Chen Mo from a distance. He had just been made a marquis and was in a good mood. Although he couldn't hide his fatigue, his spirit was a little high.

"Brother, why don't you take a rest?" Chen Mo walked side by side with Cao Cao and asked with a smile: "Even if you don't come to this banquet, Mr. Dong won't be surprised, right?"

"If he comes to Luoyang, it would be bad if he loses face." Cao Cao shook his head and said with a smile: "In the future, he will probably be a minister in the same palace. Aren't you here too?"

"I always feel that something is going to happen today." Chen Mo nodded. Most of the people who came here had similar thoughts, including Chen Mo's at the beginning. In Luoyang, it is best not to provoke others casually before showing any hostility.

"What can be done?" Cao Cao asked doubtfully.

"I can't tell, it's probably not going to be a good thing." Chen Mo only speculated based on changes in luck, how could he know what would happen specifically.

"My dear brother, you are overly concerned." Cao Cao laughed and said, "But when Dong Zhuo arrived in Luoyang, he summoned hundreds of officials to have a banquet. He was quite thoughtful."

The two of them came to Wenming Garden all the way. The seats in this garden should be arranged according to official positions. Chen Mo and Cao Cao consciously sat in the back row. Cao Cao looked around and saw that everyone was not there yet. In addition, their seats were at the back, so they simply sat in the back row. Sit down cross-legged and chat with Chen Mo.

"Brother, it's really..." Chen Mo looked at the frequent glances from the people around him, shook his head, and simply sat down like this himself. Sitting on his knees was actually quite hurtful to his legs, especially for such a banquet, where there were only one or two people sitting down. hour.

"Dong Gong is here!" After a long time, all the officials had arrived. Mingong, who was sitting near the two of them, greeted them.

Chen Mo and Cao Cao quickly sat upright.

Dong Zhuo took Li Ru to the table, smiled and greeted everyone one by one, and then took the table. There was harmony between the guests and the host, but after drinking for three rounds, Dong Zhuo suddenly said solemnly: "Everyone, I have something to say, and I won't say it out loud. "

When all the officials heard this, they couldn't help but look at Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo said in a deep voice: "Although Zhuo has just arrived in Luoyang, according to what Zhuo saw last night, the emperor is weak and not as majestic as the emperor as King Chen Liu. Do you all feel the same?"

The ministers were silent after hearing this, and looked at Dong Zhuo with some surprise and uncertainty. What does this fat man want to do?

Seeing that the ministers were silent, Dong Zhuo smiled and said: "Now I have received the edict. The late emperor actually intended to establish King Chenliu as emperor. However, because of the general's affairs, he finally got the throne. I want to follow the edict of the late emperor and re-establish King Chenliu." As emperor, what do you think?"

"Don't talk nonsense, Mr. Dong!" Wang Yundao said.

Dong Zhuo looked at the officials and saw that their faces were not good-looking. He sneered and said, "I invite you all to come here today to discuss this matter. I have made up my mind to follow the late emperor's edict and make King Chenliu the emperor. It's okay." Those who live with me live, those who go against me die!”

"Absurd!" Yuan Shao kicked the table open, stood up suddenly, looked at Dong Zhuo and said sternly: "Imperial affairs can only be decided by you, a foreign minister!"

"I have the late emperor's edict!" Dong Zhuo frowned. He didn't want to conflict with the Yuan family at this time.

"An Zhi is not a false edict?" Yuan Shao said coldly: "Since I took the throne, I have not lost any virtue. What virtue is there in humiliating me? I dare to talk about abolishing the throne!?"

Dong Zhuo suddenly drew his sword and said solemnly: "It's up to me to do what I want now. Who dares to disobey me? Do you think my sword is harmful?"

"Dong Zhuoer is the only hero in the world!" Yuan Shao drew his sword in his hand and said proudly: "Your sword is sharp, but my sword is not bad at all!"

Chen silently stretched out his hand to press his sword, and a flying knife fell into his hand. If Dong Zhuo really dared to force himself, he would kill this fat man first today.

Cao Cao stood up slowly, pressed Chen Mo's shoulder, and told him not to worry yet: "My dear brother, please don't get excited, let's attack from behind!"

"Dong Zhuo is here well prepared, how about..." Chen Mo looked at Cao Cao: "Capture the thief first and capture the king first?"

"That's what I meant!" Cao Cao grinned, the two looked at each other, bypassed the crowd and quietly touched behind Dong Zhuo.

On the other side, seeing Yuan Shao taking the lead in confronting Dong Zhuo, Li Ru knew that the matter could not be discussed today, so he immediately stepped forward to stop Dong Zhuo and said: "The matter is uncertain, so don't kill rashly!"

The Yuan family is not easy to mess with. If Yuan Shao is really killed here, things will be even more difficult for Dong Zhuo.

Yuan Shao snorted coldly, bowed to everyone, turned around and left. It was obvious that he couldn't finish the banquet, and all the officials stood up to leave.
