Chapter 124 Breaking Up Unhappily
() Luoyang City looks particularly quiet under the cover of night. Because of a series of things that have happened in the city recently, Luoyang City is far less prosperous than before. After entering the dark night, there are few pedestrians on the streets, except for the occasional
Apart from the night patrol soldiers who passed by, there seemed to be no one around these days.
But today, there were many people on the street. A luxurious-looking bullock cart suddenly appeared on the street, and there were no less than a hundred strong men following behind it. But this scene, the entire city of Luoyang also
Not many people can do it. And the person sitting in this carriage is none other than Yuan Wei, the head of the Yuan family and the current imperial tutor. What he is going to see at night is a man that almost no one in Luoyang City has heard of.
The person who has passed - Ma Yue.
Yuan Wei already knew through his own channels that the man who killed his Yuan family slave in Zhijinwu Yamen on the order of investigating the case and encouraged the people in the city to redress their grievances was Ma Yue. This time he wanted to come and meet this unknown person.
The sky is the limit for this young man! In order to ensure safety and to put pressure on Ma Yue, Yuan Wei brought out all the most elite generals of the Yuan family this time.
After driving for a long time, Yuan An, who was guiding the way by the car, whispered to the owner inside: "Master, we're here!" With his help, Yuan Wei lowered his head and got out of the car. After taking a look at the surrounding situation, he
He signaled for someone to call the door. This was an ordinary house with a small area. It was unexpected that Dong Zhuo's counselor would live in such a remote place.
The door was opened quickly, and a big man who was seven feet tall looked at the people in front of the door, but he didn't show the slightest surprise: "But is Taifu Yuan here?"
The other party had already guessed that he would come, which surprised Yuan Wei slightly, but he still responded: "Yes, it's me. I have something to talk to Ma Yuefen here, so go and tell me
Endowment.”
The big man didn't move, and still said in a voice without any emotion: "My young master said that now he has an embarrassing status. He is the person who is trying the Yuan family's case, so it is inconvenient to meet Mr. Yuan at this time.
Mr. Yuan, please come back."
"What? My master, Yuzun, has come here in such a condescending manner, and Ma Yue actually refuses to meet him. How brave he is!" After hearing this, the generals of the Yuan family immediately became angry and cursed one after another. They followed.
It has not been more than a day or two for Yuan Wei. He has met many high-ranking officials and dignitaries of the imperial court, even the ten permanent servants. A big man like He Jin never treated the family head with such an attitude. Unexpectedly, he was rejected by such a place today. This makes him
How can they endure it?
But the big man obviously didn't take the anger of these people seriously, and still said in a calm tone: "I was just ordered to pass on a message. Anyway, my young master has ordered not to see you, and no matter what you say, you will not be let in!
"
"You... let's go, let's fight in now, let's see what the horse can do!" Someone suddenly greeted and stepped forward. These were some people who were worried that they would be killed like Yuan Zhong in the future and couldn't restrain their anger.
and worried, they were about to take action. But as soon as they took steps, the man in front of the door whistled.
Immediately, dozens of Xiliang soldiers rushed out from the door. In their hands were strong bows with arrows on the strings, pointing directly at everyone. At this time, the big man continued to speak slowly and calmly.
: "If you dare to break in, don't blame us for being ruthless!"
Seeing the densely packed arrows shining coldly under the moonlight, many Yuan family generals immediately stopped. Although they were not sure that the other party really dared to shoot arrows, they did not dare to bet on this one. Look at the bows.
It was a strong bow of about one stone. It was enough to penetrate the human body within a few dozen steps. They didn't want to die just like that.
"Taifu Yuan, please come back." The big man said and ignored the people in front of the door and turned around to leave. However, the archers were still staring there. As long as the Yuan family did not leave, they would not go back.
Yuan Wei's complexion turned green and white for a while. It turned out that he thought that as long as he met Ma Yue, he might use his power to convince him. And even if he couldn't convince him, Yuan Wei could use this meeting to convince those in Luoyang City.
Hundred
The surname revealed a certain meaning, which made them dare not easily sue the Yuan family again. However, they did not expect that their wishful thinking would completely fail in front of this Ma Yue. Even before they saw his face, they were already trapped.
Completely passive.
"It seems that this Ma Yue is indeed not an ordinary young man. His move may seem rude, but it is the best way to deal with it. This man is able to be reused by Dong Zhuo at a young age, which indeed has his own merits...
..." Yuan Wei thought with emotion.
At this time, Yuan An asked softly: "Master, how should we deal with ourselves? Should we go back?" Obviously he also realized that it was impossible to achieve his wish today. Rather than making a fool of himself here, it would be better to go back.
But Yuan Wei didn't think so. Since he came out, he couldn't return without success: "No, go see Dong Zhuo now! Since this Ma Yue refuses to see me, then I will go see someone who has more weight than his words."
.”
"But the master of the house, even such a subordinate is so arrogant, wouldn't Dong Zhuo be even more..." Yuan An said with some worry, he really didn't want to see his master be humiliated several times.
"No need to say more, just do as you are told." With that, Yuan Wei sat back in the car, and then the team left.
And when Ma Yue, who was waiting for news, heard that they were going east, a hint of realization appeared on his face: "It seems that they are going to find Dong Zhuo. That's good, let's see if Dong Zhuo will change his mind."
????????????
After Yuan Wei arrived at Dong Zhuo's mansion, he was finally welcomed in. Dong Zhuo didn't have as many worries as Ma Yue, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to talk to Yuan Wei, so he let him in. But in terms of attitude
, he also seemed very arrogant, and did not allow other members of the Yuan family to follow him in. He only allowed Yuan Wei to enter alone with two followers.
Yuan Wei had no objection to this. He brought these hundreds of people just to intimidate Ma Yue. Now that he came to see Dong Zhuo, a warlord with a large army, there was no need.
Dong Zhuo met Yuan Wei in the living room. When they met, he did not get up, let alone salute. He opened his mouth and said: "When I sent a message to Mr. Yuan to invite you to come to the banquet, you claimed that you were not feeling well and only sent an unknown person."
The younger generation came here. Why did they suddenly visit me today?"
Seeing Dong Zhuo's attitude, Yuan Wei felt a little unhappy, but in the end he just laughed and complained, confirming again that he had contracted the disease that day, and then shied away. Seeing that Dong Zhuo swallowed his anger, he felt even more happy.
In the past few days, he had suffered a lot from Yuan Wei because of the abolition of Li Li, and this time he finally repaid him a little.
Afterwards, the two of them started chatting there, saying some words that were almost meaningless. Finally, after a while, Yuan Wei couldn't help it anymore and said the reason why he came: "Shijun Dong, as I said,
I know that the person who is calling the shots in Zhijinwu Yamen recently is a young man named Ma Yue. This man comes from Dong Shijun’s family, but is it true?"
"Yes, although Ma Zhongling is not very old, he knows people well and is very upright. He is a good candidate to govern Luoyang. So I recommended this person to the emperor, and the emperor agreed." Dong Zhuo said.
Hearing him mention Ma Yue, I felt happy, knowing that the other party finally couldn't help but come to beg for mercy.
"He is a fair man? Why don't I think so? Just look at what he did in the past two days. He wanted to make enemies of the people in Luoyang City. He arrested people at will and executed several criminals without the approval of the court.
People..." Yuan Wei suppressed his unhappiness and said tactfully.
"I already know everything about this, but I heard that what he did only made the people in the city applaud and think that those people should be killed." Dong Zhuo smiled, not bothering Yuan Wei's slightly blue face.
take it seriously.
"Humph, aren't Dong Shijun afraid that this will cause the powerful families in Luoyang City to be dissatisfied with you? Now that Ma Yue actually allows those unruly people to sue the officials' families, isn't this an attempt to incite the people to rebel?"
"Taifu Yuan doesn't need to worry about this. With my Xiliang army in Luoyang, there won't be any trouble. But if Taifu Yuan is so anxious to talk about this matter, it must be because it has hurt your Yuan family?" Dong Zhuo said to Yuan
Wei didn't take the threatening words seriously and spoke with a bit of mockery.
"You...you are clearly taking the opportunity to cause trouble!" Seeing that his high-sounding words could no longer make Dong Zhuo change his mind, Yuan Wei had to tear off his somewhat hypocritical mask: "All of this is because of Dong Zhongying's suggestion.
, in order to deal with my Yuan family, you don’t have to say so nicely. But have you ever thought about it, once things get serious and the people really want to attack the rich and powerful in the city, you will offend the famous families all over the world. What will you do then?
At home?"
"Dong doesn't need you to teach him what to do. Now that he has done it, I am not afraid of what you will think." Seeing that the other party was angry, Dong Zhuo became calmer and said with a smile: "Taifu Yuan should think about what he should do. Of course, this matter
It's not completely non-negotiable. As long as you are willing to listen to my wishes, then this move against your Yuan family can be resolved." Now that he has grasped the other party's weakness, he will naturally use it to achieve what he wants.
Of course Yuan Wei knew the meaning of his words, which was to make himself agree to his move to depose the emperor and establish a new one. But this was something that Yuan Wei could never agree to, so he immediately shook his head: "Don't even think about taking this matter.
You have given up on threatening me to do such a big mistake!"
"If that's the case, then you and I have nothing to say. Just watch slowly!" Seeing that Yuan Wei refused to submit, Dong Zhuo felt quite unhappy. After snorting, he ordered the guests to be sent off.
