There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

Xu Jing was not in a hurry, he found a place to live in a village near Jiuli Mountain, and waited quietly for the potter's triumphant return.

The opponents were Lv Bu and Dong Zhuo, the outcome was unpredictable, but this time Xu Jing was full of expectations and confidence towards the potter for some unknown reason.

I don't know if it was because the pottery merchant was really capable or Xu Jing's sincerity moved the heavens and earth, but the pottery merchant actually defeated Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu and came back.

Hearing that the potter's army had returned to the vicinity of Jiuli Mountain, Xu Jing couldn't restrain his excitement for a while, and even braved the heavy rain to rush to his army camp overnight to meet the potter.

What a continuous sincere affection, it is really touching.

Of course, the ending of being beaten up by Cao Bao can be ignored, what is important is Xu Jing's sincere attachment.

Regardless of whether it is public or private, pottery merchants cannot reject Xu Jing thousands of miles away.

In private, it is he who has achieved his title of "Prince Taiping", even if it is to repay his kindness, the pottery merchant must settle him down well.

Yu Gong, since Xu Jing has a deep friendship with Shi Xie from Jiaozhou, the potter needs to use his relationship to build a bridge of friendship with Jiaozhou.

"If Mr. Xu doesn't dislike it, you might as well live in our Jinling City. Mr. Xu is Tao's benefactor. From now on, as long as there is a place for Mr. Tao, he will never let Mr. Xu be disappointed!"

When Xu Jing heard this, he immediately showed a relieved smile.

This kid has a real conscience.

"With Mr. Tao's words, the old man can rest assured. Don't worry, although the old man is a mediocre person, he still has some connections and means. If Zidu has any orders in the future, the old man will never refuse."

When Xu Jing babbled so far, the pottery merchant really wanted to ask him something.

"Mr. Xu, when you were in Yingchuan, you promised to let Tao go to the Yuedan Review, but you never said that you would give Tao a ten-sentence golden review. You really helped behind the scenes? "

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Xu Jing also showed a hint of doubt on his face.

"Mr. Tao, to be honest, I asked you to comment on the first day of the month. It was indeed the recommendation of the old man, but the ten-sentence comments that the younger brother gave you on the first day of the month were definitely not instigated by the old man. It’s just quite weird, he suddenly values ​​you so much, to be honest, it’s beyond the old man’s expectation.”

The pottery merchant couldn't help being stunned.

Master Taiping and the ten-sentence golden commentary were not operated by Xu Jing behind the scenes?

Xu Zijiang doesn't know himself, why should he value him so much?

What was he thinking?

Is it Xu Zijiang's whim behind this, or is there some reason unknown to others?

Regardless of the real reason why Xu Zijiang valued him, right now, the pottery merchant must treat Xu Jing well, after all, this is also a kind of repayment, a kind of friendship.

2 Chapter Eighty

If the news of Dong Zhuo's death shocked the world, then after the death of the old thief, the development of Guanzhong shocked the world even more.

After Dong Zhuo's death, Li Jue and Guo Si stationed their soldiers and horses at Hangu Pass before they could advance, and watched Ma Teng and Han Sui launch a fatal onslaught on Chang'an.

The lack of major generals in Chang'an City, all the elites were taken out by Dong Zhuo, and it was difficult to defend them for a long time.

Li Ru sent several urgent letters to Li Jue, asking him to quickly return to the army for rescue, otherwise Chang'an would be in danger.

But every letter from Li Ru was like sinking into the sea, without splashing a single wave.

In the end, Ma Teng and Han Sui finally captured Chang'an.

The result of Ma Teng and Han Sui conquering Chang'an is that Dong Zhuo is completely unprecedented.

It's not that they are cruel, it's just that this is a necessary means to govern the political situation. If Ma Teng and Han Sui want to replace Dong Zhuo as the emperor and become powerful ministers, then they must deny everything that the previous powerful minister made, including denying life.

Ma Teng hesitated, but Han Sui had already carried out a terrifying cleansing of Dong Zhuo's family and old ministry in Chang'an.

When it comes to ferocity and violence, the generals under Ma Teng and Han Sui's command are also from the Xiliang army, and half of them are Qiang people, not much different from the generals under Dong Zhuo's command. above, not below.

With this group of soldiers as their backing, what else are they afraid to do?

In just three days, Dong Zhuo's old tribe in Chang'an and Dong's three clans, men, women and children were almost slaughtered, not even a single scum was left.

And the people in Chang'an City also suffered because of this turmoil. Han Sui's soldiers and horses, using the reason of clearing Dong Thief's former troops, wantonly looted and robbed the people's wealth in Chang'an City, turning the entire Chang'an City into a bloody storm. .

For a time, no matter whether it was the gentry, the officials, or the common people, everyone was in danger.

However, when counting the massacred members of the Dong family, Ma and Han seemed to have some omissions that they had never expected.

Although Dong Zhuo's cronies were all dead, Li Ru's body was never found!

Also included is a grandson of Dong Zhuo!

However, although things are a bit strange, there are rumors in the city that Li Ru threw himself into a well on the eve of Ma and Han's invasion of Chang'an, and ended his life.

As for which well he cast in, no one can say clearly.

There are too many wells in the city of Chang'an, if one were to investigate them one by one, one would not know how long it would take.

Moreover, compared to the grandchildren of Li Ru and Dong Zhuo, these trivial matters are not worthy of Ma Teng and Han Sui's attention at present, because they have more important things to do right now.

They are going to fight among themselves now!

The reason for the internal strife between the two brothers is very simple, it can even be said to be ridiculous, just because of the differences between the two when they entered the palace for the first time.

Ma Teng and Han Sui have lived in the frontier of Liangzhou for a long time. They have been with the Qiang people all the year round, and they both supported the kingdom and rebelled in the past. Therefore, to a certain extent, these two people are not good people, no different from bandits and bullies. .

The problem is that even the bandits are divided into different classes, there are bandits who can read and there are bandits who can't.

Ma Teng obviously belongs to the literate class.

The difference between him and Han Sui is that although Ma Teng has fallen, because his ancestor is General Fubo Ma Yuan, deep in his heart, he still has a self-motivated mind to work hard and return to the civilized world.

Although I was once a traitor, my ancestors were loyal ministers!

Deep in Ma Teng's heart, he kept shouting that Lao Tzu used to be from a scholarly family!

But Han Sui was obviously different.

Compared with Ma Teng, Han Sui's heart is more wild. As early as when Emperor Xiaoling was still alive, Han Sui dared to attack the court openly, and he has not stopped for many years.

To put it bluntly, he is the Mountain Sculpture of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

In the second year of Zhongping, Han Sui led tens of thousands of cavalry into Sanfu and invaded the Yuanling. He made it clear that he wanted to dig up the tomb of the emperor's family and open a new chapter in the history of tomb robbery.

At that time, Emperor Hanling Liu Hong was still alive, and the land of Sanfu was considered within the controllable range of Tianjia forces. Although the Yellow Turbans were causing chaos in various places at that time, breaking ground at the feet of the emperor was not something ordinary people would dare to do, especially stealing the emperor. tomb!

In broad daylight, Big Brother Han led tens of thousands of people to dig the ancestral grave of the old Liu's family with shovels. There is really no one else with such demonic energy.

Afterwards, Han Sui continued to fight Huangfusong, Dong Zhuo and others, but ordered them to return without fighting.
