Dong Zhuo endured so much and arrived in Chang'an, and finally got good news. Guo Si and Xu Rong defeated Sun Jian and Cao Cao's pursuers. Sun Jian's troops suffered heavy losses, and he himself was seriously injured and died. It was Li Yi, and Dong Zhuo was very happy at the time, but it was Sun Jian, who was calculated to die like this. I feel that Li Yi is really capable, and the military law should be stricter, which is very good.

No, Dong Zhuo's joy did not last for a meal, and he received the news of the conflict between Li Yi and Zhang Xiu. Three or 4000 people formed a formation and fought a real battle.

Dong Zhuo was so angry that he was about to vomit blood. The fight with Sun Jian was said to be a big victory, but in fact it only killed 2000 people, but these two bastards directly used so many people to fight among themselves. They really are not human!

Fortunately, news came later that Dong Zhuo knew that there were not many deaths in their conflict, so Dong Zhuo was relieved, otherwise he would have sent someone directly to escort Li Yi and Zhang Xiu into Chang'an.

Even so, Dong Zhuo still had a severe headache, and this matter was really difficult to deal with.

Although Li Yi went a bit too far when enforcing the military law, it is definitely not wrong. If Li Yi is not punished, the "popular indignation" cannot be quelled.

Looking at Zhang Xiu again, for what he did, there are three heads that are not enough to cut off, but there are too many people who interceded for Zhang Xiu, and those small warlords who took refuge in Dong Zhuo were very close together, which made Dong Zhuo quite scrupulous. Moreover, Zhang Ji cried when he saw Dong Zhuo now, saying how domineering Li Yi was, and how pitiful and wronged his elder nephew was.

Seeing Zhang Jin's appearance, Dong Zhuo was also speechless, and sometimes even wondered whether Li Yi had robbed his wife.

It was these two embarrassing situations that made Dong Zhuo unable to make a decision, and he didn't want to see Li Yi, otherwise no matter how lazy he was, he should meet Li Yi.

But the matter is not over yet, and someone came to sue Li Yi last night.

Wang Yun ran to Dong Zhuo with snot and tears and said that Li Yi had taken over his daughter and asked Dong Zhuo to help him decide.

Dong Zhuo is about to scold his mother. Why, I just told you about the relatives, and she was a woman snatched from the emperor when he was a child. How wonderful, but in the end you turned around and bullied men and women, what's the face of me?And it's still targeting Wang Yun's daughter. Didn't he already set his sights on it?

Wang Yun disturbed Dong Zhuo, if it was a political matter, he could throw Wang Yun out, but this time it was a family matter, he would not be so overbearing, instead, he comforted Wang Yun and sent him back at home.

Therefore, Dong Zhuo was suffocating a lot of anger because of Li Yi. Seeing that Li Yi dared to fight him now, Dong Zhuo decided to release his anger a little bit, otherwise the young people would inevitably be a little arrogant.

"Hehe, okay, you are fine, then you can talk to this old man, but if you can't tell the reason behind the ugly words, don't blame this old man for being indifferent!"

The annoyance on Dong Zhuo's face was already very obvious, Li Ru was watching from the sidelines, and his chest became more and more dull.

Li Yi thought for a while, and said, "Some time ago, I was out to supervise the army, and my subordinates rested for two and a half hours a day at most."

Dong Zhuo sneered and said, "Are you showing merit to yourself? Or are you mocking the old man?"

Li Yi was noncommittal, and continued: "But yesterday, when my subordinates arrived in Chang'an, they lay on the bed for more than six hours."

The corner of Dong Zhuo's mouth twitched, he thought to himself that you are lazier than me, I don't know what to say for a while.

Seeing this, Li Ru quickly calmed down and said: "Taibai has been working hard, and he should take more rest."

Dong Zhuo cast a glance at Li Ru, but said nothing.

Unexpectedly, Li Yi shook his head: "Otherwise, my subordinates followed Master earlier, and their daily rest was equivalent to that of marching. They never slacked off and didn't feel hard work. When I was in Luoyang a few days ago, my subordinates were also like that. However, after only one day in Chang'an, my subordinates are lazy, and they have already woken up, but they just don't want to get up and do things. Even if someone calls, I don't want to, after all"

"After all what?"

Dong Zhuo's voice softened a little, not because his anger disappeared, but because Li Yi also had the same situation as Li Yi said.

"After all, there is a house given by the grand master, which can keep me safe from rain and rain, and a salary reward from the grand master, which allows me to eat wine and meat, and then support hundreds of servants and servants. I am less than twenty years old now, and I have such a I don’t know how many people I can envy about my family business, since that’s the case, why should I go to work from morning to night, just enjoy it at home, anyway, the Grand Master will send someone to look for me if he has something to do.”

Dong Zhuo never expected that Li Yi would say such unmotivated words in front of him. Even though he knew that these words would have to be listened to in reverse, he still couldn't help the three corpses jumping violently, and shouted angrily: "You said These are intended to make the old man take back all your things!"

Li Yi bowed his head deeply, and said: "The subordinates know that the grand master is benevolent, and the subordinates are lazy at home, and the grand master's temperament naturally doesn't care about it, but if the subordinates are like that for ten days, I'm afraid they have to be ready to wait. Let the grand master come and cut off the official rank, and become a common man again."

"Hmph, as long as you know!"

After a pause, Li Yi suddenly looked into Dong Zhuo's eyes and asked: "If there is only one subordinate, the grand master can punish him at will, but if my Xiliang army is as slack as the subordinates said from top to bottom, After ten days, how will the grand master deal with it?"

Dong Zhuo raised his brows, he recalled what Li Yi said, and he didn't get angry this time, but he still said stubbornly: "The old man has tens of thousands of soldiers, why worry about no one available?"

"Ugh."

Li Yi sighed quietly, and said: "Only one of the Taishi's subordinates made a mistake, and he should be punished. If everyone makes a mistake, there is no punishment, but what if"

"What if?"

"If the grand master commits a crime"

"You are bold!"

Dong Zhuo stood up suddenly, thinking that Li Yi was targeting those Xiliang officials, but he didn't expect to mention him in the end.

Dong Zhuo felt that he was too generous, and Li Yi even dared to mock him face to face. Although he was reluctant to kill this guy, he still had to punish him.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two chief ministers was not right before, Li Ru wanted to vomit blood, and hurriedly said: "Grand Master, Li Taibai dared to speak up and speak out, which shows his loyalty and loyalty, and his loyalty can be shown to the sun and the moon. He should be rewarded! Set an example for everyone!"

"call"

Dong Zhuo took a deep breath, and glared at Li Ru again. If someone else said such a thing, he would definitely slap his ears.

However, Dong Zhuo finally swallowed the words that came to his lips after being interrupted by Li Ru and looking at his anxious pale face.

As for the heavy reward Li Ru mentioned, Dong Zhuoquan and the punishment should cancel each other out.

In fact, Dong Zhuo also felt that Li Yi was indeed loyal, otherwise, how could he let a newcomer take on the important task of supervising the army? He didn't want Li Yi to be gilded so that he could be promoted.

It's just that this person is really easy to use when he is easy to use, but he is really annoying when he advises.

Dong Zhuo gasped for a while, then sat back to his original place, waved his hand and said, "I won't mention this matter."

Then, Dong Zhuo narrowed his eyes, looked at Li Yi playfully, and asked aloud, "Wang Situ came to the old man yesterday and said that you robbed his daughter. Is this true?"

Dong Zhuo's eyes were a little smug, being run over by Li Ruyi, it would be difficult for him to punish Li Yi, but he caught Li Yi in other ways to vent his anger, and there are still reasons, so it doesn't matter, right?

It's just that Dong Zhuo's pre-examination, Li Yi didn't feel guilty at all. On the contrary, he said very sadly: "This matter is indeed related to me. It is only natural for Situ to blame me, but Wang Situ's daughter is not me. The one who was robbed was robbed by Zhang Xiu."

Dong Zhuo was taken aback, he really didn't know about the situation, Wang Yun didn't mention Zhang Xiu when he complained, so Dong Zhuo always thought it was two things.

Seeing that Li Yi seemed to be about to talk about the grievances between him and Zhang Xiu, Dong Zhuo felt that he had stepped on a lump of mud. He didn't want to touch this shit, and planned to waste it and deal with it coldly. go in.

Li Yi didn't hide the matter with Zhang Xiu, and told everything, Dong Zhuo felt a little bit more considerate of Zhang Xiu after hearing this, if it were him, he would have to fight Li Yi desperately.

"Look at the good deeds you have done. When the military law is enforced, the military law is enforced. Why force Zhang Xiu to such a degree? Now what do you say, kill or not?"

Dong Zhuo looked at Li Yi angrily. As for Li Yi's answer, he didn't expect much. Regardless of whether it was public or private, Li Yi could insist on killing Zhang Xiu.

But Li Yi's answer surprised him.

"Can't kill!"

"What did you say?"

"Can't kill."

Li Yi repeated it and explained: "The one who wants to kill Zhang Xiu can be a military law or a subordinate, but not the Grand Master."

"When I clashed with Zhang Xiu, if I killed him directly, even though Zhang Ji hated me, it was nothing more than a personal enmity in the end. He is still a subordinate of the grand master, and he is harmless to the grand master. But killing him now Zhang Xiu, Zhang Ji must leave, and even start a rebellion, and then the morale of the army will be shaken, which will be very unfavorable to the Grand Master!"
