Guo Jia said: "The lord needs to recall the eldest son as soon as possible!"

"Yuan wants you to call Ang'er back quickly!"

"promise!"

Chapter 274 Dong Zhuo and Li Ru have their own ghosts

"Your Majesty, Cao Shuo's envoy has been waiting at the station for a long time."

When Li Ru came to Dong Zhuo's residence, seeing Dong Zhuo's pale face, shortness of breath, panting, he felt an inexplicable excitement in his heart for some reason.

Dong Zhuo said weakly: "Cao Shuo agreed to exchange?"

Li Ru replied: "We don't have His Majesty in our hands, they want to replace a few more people."

"Hey, Li Ru, these people are most likely behind the scenes. I really don't want them to leave."

Facing such a group of unshakable enemies, Dong Zhuo wished to eat their flesh and lay bare their skins, but if his Qin State wanted to become orthodox, it must have a jade seal.

Li Ru said: "Your Majesty, although the other party agreed to send the jade seal in advance, the other party wants to use me as a hostage."

Could it be that Cao Shuo already knew that Li Ru's family was the only one left in Chang'an as his close relatives?

Great changes had taken place in Chang'an City, and he immediately closed the four gates, so it was impossible to send out the news.

unless……

Dong Zhuo asked in puzzlement, "Why are you used as a hostage?"

Li Ru said: "Then Deng Zhi said, beside His Majesty, I am the only pillar of the Qin State. Cao Shuo once said that he would agree to exchange me for the jade seal."

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Dong Zhuo coughed a few times, panted a few times, looked at Li Ru and said, "With you by my side, my foundation can last for decades. Cao Shuo knows your role, how can I not?"

Li Ru said gratefully, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust."

Dong Zhuo sighed and said: "Oh, Li Ru, after this incident, I feel that my time is numbered, and only Bai'er is left as my offspring, so what will happen to the Great Qin Dynasty depends on you alone gone."

Li Ru plopped, knelt on the ground, and said firmly: "Your Majesty, I have no such intentions. Your Majesty will rest for a few days and forget about today's events, and then he will recover."

Dong Zhuo stood up slowly, limped in front of Li Ru and helped him up, said: "I can see the other party's purpose, the reason why they spared no effort to assassinate the people around me is to kill me. Inheriting the inheritance, you have to be careful."

"Your Majesty, I understand!"

Li Ru supported Dong Zhuo, and walked slowly outside. Dong Zhuo looked at the night sky and sighed, "I regret it!"

"The luck of the great man has not yet dissipated, I have sent a big gift to the princes!"

Li Ru said: "Your Majesty's dragon body is still strong, maybe among the concubines, someone can conceive a dragon son and continue the bloodline for Your Majesty."

"I'm already powerless, and I need to rest for a while. You should complete the deal with Cao Shuo as soon as possible. In addition, add [-] troops to Hangu Pass. After the deal is completed, no matter what, you must kill these bastards."

"Wei Chen knows what to do."

After Li Ru left, Dong Zhuo looked at his back with a fierce look in his eyes, and then walked quickly into the hall. If Li Ru saw him, he would be surprised. Dong Zhuo's body seemed to be fine.

Dong Zhuo called a guard and said, "Yu Zhen, you have been with me for more than ten years, now is the time to use you."

Yu Zhen said: "Your Majesty once saved my life, and it is my honor to share my worries for His Majesty."

Eighteen years ago, when Dong Zhuo was the governor of Bingzhou, he rescued the six-year-old Yu Zhen and taught him martial arts secretly, in order to let him perform some things that others did not know.

"Go and keep an eye on Li Ru's family and see if they have any unusual behavior."

"promise!"

During the whole incident, Li Ru, his son-in-law, was not harmed at all. The other party seemed to have missed him.

If it is said that Li Ru is the most suspect right now, Dong Zhuo must keep an eye on him to see if he has any abnormal behavior.

Li Ru returned to Deng Zhi's residence, and said eagerly: "Bo Miao, Your Majesty has agreed to the deal, when shall we leave?"

Deng Zhi said: "You can do it anytime. If Mr. Li has nothing important to do, we can leave now."

Li Ru looked at the night outside and said, "Let's do it tomorrow morning."

On the other side, Deng Zhan personally stood guard in front of the carriage, keeping a close eye on Yang Feng's generals. As long as his subordinates withdrew into the mountains, they would have a chance to escape from the Jingzhaoyin area.

As for him, he had already thought of a way out.

Seeing that Deng Zhan's subordinates had all disappeared into the mountains, Yang Feng said: "Your subordinates have all left, did you let our queen mother go?"

Deng Zhan said with a sneer: "If I leave this carriage, I'm afraid you will shoot me to death with random arrows. Let's each go back, otherwise don't blame me for not being able to."

Deng Zhan pointed to the inside of the car with the sword in his hand, Yang Feng was startled and sweated profusely.

"Back up!"

When Deng Zhan entered the edge of the forest, Yang Feng suddenly led the army to rush over.

A smile appeared on the corner of Deng Zhan's mouth, and he shouted loudly: "Master Taiwei, you once told me to kill Dong Mu and Dong Bai, but I really didn't expect that he would not give us a way out. Aim the crossbow at the carriage."

Whoosh whoosh!

A few arrows hit the horses pulling the cart, and the horses were frightened and ran wildly.

"Quick, save people!"

Yang Feng personally went to chase the frightened carriage, regardless of whether Li Ru had anything to do with it, but Dong's mother couldn't die, and it would be hard for him to explain himself if he died.

Yang Feng led the army to chase after less than a cup of tea, and stopped the carriage. Fortunately, Dong's mother was safe.

"Damn thief, chase me!"

Chapter 275 Yuan Shao's Discussion on Succession to the Throne

"Have you heard?"

"Dong Zhuo has proclaimed himself emperor!"

"What's so surprising about proclaiming the emperor? I met a caravan from Chang'an on the road, and they said that Dong Zhuo was dead."

"What? This is really retribution!"

"What's the matter after the end, I also heard that Dong Zhuo killed Liu Xie."

"And this matter? Isn't this big man's country coming to an end?"

"Where did you get the gossip, why haven't I heard of it?"

……

The thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty, except for a few remote prefectures, such as Sili, Liangzhou, Yongzhou, Bingzhou, Jizhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, the streets and alleys are discussing the matter of Dong Zhuo becoming emperor.

In the Qingzhou prefecture, Yuan Shao received a report from his subordinates, saying that Dong Zhuo's proclaiming himself emperor was being discussed in the streets, and Liu Xie was killed after the Dong family was broken up.

Yuan Shao hastily summoned his subordinates to discuss this matter.

"Why is it that we in Qingzhou are spreading propaganda everywhere, Dong Zhuo proclaimed himself the emperor and built the name Daqin, Dong Zhuo's family was assassinated by the gods, and Dong Zhuo killed His Majesty in a rage, but I haven't received any news from our spies?"

Yuan Shao looked gloomy, the people of Qingzhou knew about it, but he was still kept in the dark, what's the use of this spy?

Or, some people feel that they have lost Yan Liangwen and ugly, and their strength has been greatly damaged, so they decide to rebel against him?

Feng Ji said: "My lord, we just heard that the whole Qingzhou is discussing this matter. It seems that suddenly, many people know about it. It's really strange."

Guo Tu analyzed: "Dong Zhuo proclaimed himself emperor at noon recently, but the news spread throughout Qingzhou in the evening. This has to make people think deeply about who is secretly planning this matter."

Cui Yan said: "My lord, before I came here, I asked the servants, and they also heard from street gangsters, so someone must have deliberately spread the news."

Li Fu said: "In the rumors, some heavenly soldiers descended to earth and suddenly killed Dong Zhuo's family members, some gods passed by Chang'an, and couldn't understand Dong Zhuo's evil deeds, so they cut Dong Zhuo's body, and some Dong Zhuo violated the laws of heaven to attract God's punishment Wait, it's amazing, we need to carefully consider how reliable this news is."

Su You said: "I heard from the family members that Dong Zhuo's clan was completely wiped out, only Dong Zhuo and Li Ru's family remained, and Li Ru's family was not harmed in any way. It is rumored that Li Ru secretly murdered Dong Zhuo's relatives."

After the analysis of several advisers, Yuan Shao became more and more confused. Why is the version he heard different from that of several advisers?

Yuan Shao said with a mournful face, "Is this news reliable?"

Feng Ji replied: "My lord, no matter how many theories there are, the most important thing is that Dong Zhuo proclaimed himself emperor and Liu Xie died."

Guo Tu frowned and said: "The emperor of the Han Dynasty was killed, and the laws and regulations of the emperor were all for display. The princes will definitely not obey Dong Zhuo's orders. The Han Dynasty is about to fall into an era of feudal hegemony. Our army should take precautions early."

Yuan Shao asked, "Should we unite with other princes and establish a new monarch, or do we have other plans?"

He would never say anything about becoming an emperor on his own, and he needed his subordinates to speak up about this matter, otherwise those subordinates who were loyal to the Han Dynasty would definitely be unhappy in their hearts.

Yuan Xi suggested: "Father, since the emperor of the Han Dynasty is gone, and the Han Dynasty is also finished, we should follow Dong Zhuo's example and establish ourselves as kings. Qingzhou is in an important area of ​​Qilu. Father, why not use the Qi State again and establish ourselves as the king of Qi."

"Shut up!" Yuan Shao's seven orifices were filled with smoke, and his whole body was trembling.

You want to kill your old man, can you say this out of your mouth?

Yuan Tan also suggested: "Father, since King Qi is not suitable, King Lu is also fine. Anyway, this big man is gone."

"Both of you get out of here!"

Yuan Shao was going to be so pissed off by these two rebels, couldn't they understand the meaning of what he said?

With such a mentality, how can he safely hand over the family estate to them? Although the big man no longer exists, there are still many descendants of the Liu surname alive. What can I do?

Li Fu said: "My lord, it's not right for me to make myself king now. How long Dong Zhuo can live is still a question. We should make other descendants of the Liu surname king."

Guo Tu said: "Among the descendants of the Liu surname, Liu Biao, Liu Bei, and Liu Yan are the only ones who are capable. The others are simply unable to take on great responsibilities."

"Liu Bei?"

Yuan Shao's face was instantly gloomy. It was this bastard's younger brother who killed his general Wen Chou. He would never make Liu Bei king no matter what.

Yuan Shao refused, saying: "Liu Bei is hypocritical and has enmity with our army. He must not be taken into consideration."

Li Fu asked, "How is Liu Biao in Jingzhou?"

Yuan Shao said, "Liu Biao and Liu Bei are working hand in hand, how can you let me wait?"

"Then Liu Yan..."

When Li Fu thought of Liu Yan, he still thought it was fine. Liu Yan's ambition had already been revealed, and he became the local emperor in Yizhou.

Guo Tu suggested, "How about Liu Xian, King of the North Sea?"

Yuan Shao looked at a few people depressedly, are you deaf?Didn't you hear my son's proposal just now?

What kind of bullshit Liu Xian, who is good at eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, can also be my king?

Feng Ji said: "This person has long been reduced to a waste, and he will be fine if he becomes a king!"

Yuan Shao was very excited, finally someone who understands!

Chapter 276 Xuzhou's undercurrent surges, Mi Zhu cheats Yuan Shao again

Yuan Shao said coldly: "Whoever wants to continue the imperial power of the great man, we just wait and see what happens. Don't forget that Cao Shuo still has the former empress Tang Ji in his hands. Maybe Cao Shuo will play something wrong. It's better not to be the first bird."

Feng Ji agreed: "My lord is right. The current strength of our army, even if we support a new emperor, it will not be able to convince other princes. We must be careful and not become the target of public criticism."

Yuan Shao looked at Feng Ji depressedly, I was just being polite, it's a shame I praised you just now.

Guo Tu said: "The scuffle between the princes will begin soon. We must improve our strength as soon as possible. I don't know how Master Wang Xiu is going."

Cui Yan said: "Master Wang Xiu has been in Xuzhou for three days, and the results must be coming soon."

Yuan Shao is extremely depressed now. Cao Shuo blocked him in Qingzhou, and it would be difficult for him to develop outward. If he crossed the Yangtze River to attack Yangzhou, his navy would not be good enough, and it was imperative to let the Mi family join his team.

"Send someone to urge you to bring the Mi family to our side. With the support of the Mi family, we can develop better in Qingxu Erzhou."

But Wang Xiu, who was a lobbyist in Xuzhou, fell into a dilemma. Wang Xiu came to Mi Zhu's mansion, and Mi Zhu warmly entertained him.

Mi Zhu asked with a smile: "Mr. Uncle Zhi, what do you mean when you come to my house this time? Is my sister coming back?"

Wang Xiu's face darkened, and he said helplessly, "Cao Shuo doesn't accept any suggestion. Our general Yan Liang and counselor Xu You are still in his hands."

Mi Fang said displeasedly: "Then what are you doing here?"

Wang Xiu said softly: "My lord wants the two gentlemen to support us in Qingzhou!"

"????"

Mi Fang stared at Wang Xiu with black lines all over her head. Last time she gave hundreds of millions of money and a lot of food and grass, and now she wants it again?

Mi Zhu said coldly: "Isn't it right? Although we intend to marry the Yuan family, there is still no news of my sister. If it takes a long time, it will be a few questions about who I call my brother-in-law."

Wang Xiuwei said: "You can't blame us for this matter. Cao Shuo secretly defeated Taishan County, which caused us to lose troops and generals on the way back. We didn't have much food and grass. Blackmailed a few times, it is already stretched, if the Mi family is willing to help again at this time, my lord will definitely remember it."
