Chapter 557 The Hongmen Banquet in Wenmingyuan
Bao Xin had no choice but to leave Yuan’s mansion, sat in the carriage, and sighed.
Yuan Shao was afraid of Dong Zhuo, and it seemed that the overall situation in Luoyang City was powerless to make the situation come true.
In this way, it is the most important thing to save your life.
Today, Luoyang City is more and more dangerous as you stay in.
This time he came to visit the Yuan family, he risked being targeted by Dong Zhuo. Unexpectedly, Yuan Shao, the Sili Captain, still dared not take action.
Now even his lord, General He Jin, has died in Luoyang City.
Bao Xin was a little discouraged, so he naturally didn't want to stay in Luoyang anymore.
When he went home to bring his family and relatives, Bao Xin did not hesitate at all. He hurriedly fled and led his troops away from Luoyang City, a place of undercurrents and turbulent right and wrong.
When he returned to his hometown, Taishan County, he recruited tens of thousands of soldiers and brought many vehicles carrying food and supplies.
When Dong Zhuo saw Bao Xin escape, he did not stop him.
Many strangers who smelled the wrong smell also left Luoyang City with Bao Xin's behavior.
Yuan Shao was quietly waiting for the situation to develop further in Luoyang City.
Not long after, Yuan Shao, Yuan Wei, Yuan Shu and others who were still in Luoyang City received an invitation, which was that Dong Zhuo wanted to invite all the three ministers and nine ministers and some important officials in Luoyang City.
Dong Zhuo's invitation asked them to go to Wenmingyuan for a banquet.
Wenmingyuan is located on Tongtu Street, which is the most prosperous in Luoyang City, which is only one street away from the north and south palaces.
It is the most common place for high-ranking officials and nobles in Luoyang City to meet.
Luoyang City, Wenmingyuan
Among the spacious and bright halls, all directions are made of jade bi.
Oil lamps on both sides are burning, embellishing luxury like stars flashing.
The oil lamp burns for a long time, and the lights are brightly lit inside, and the ground is covered with blankets woven by the most precious Shu brocade.
Many servants and maids went in and out of the hall, serving various dishes that satisfy the desires of the people.
Although the banquets in Wenmingyuan were extremely sumptuous, there were a wide variety of delicacies.
But the people at the banquet were a little absent-minded and shook each other's eyes. The whole banquet was full of strange atmosphere.
After Dong Zhuo's silent operation for many days, Luoyang City had unknowingly become more military power into Dong Zhuo's hands.
Following Dong Zhuo is indeed the brightest road now.
The reason is simple, that is, the emperor is in the hands of Dong Zhuo.
When the Han Dynasty had not yet completely lost its authority, the Han Empire was an absolutely centralized empire.
It can be said that whoever controls the emperor will also control it.
In addition to Zhang Zhang and Wu Kuang, Lu Bu's big moves in the Bingzhou Army camp outside Luoyang City attracted everyone's attention.
This god-level general who was famous in the Liangzhou area and once helped Dingyuan to quell the great turmoil in Bingzhou.
After all, he was involved in Dong Zhuo's leadership like a track like history.
And he killed Ding Yuanhe and recovered him all at once.
At this moment, everyone from the Han Empire had gathered together in Wenmingyuan.
Speaking of which, the people who participated in the gathering in Wenmingyuan this time were people who were quite familiar to Ye Tian.
Needless to say, the leader of the Grand Tutor Yuan Wei, the head of the Yuan family of Runan, the world's first family.
In addition to Dong Zhuo, the most powerful person in the entire Luoyang city is the leader of scholars.
There is a saying that "a thousand-year-old family, a hundred-year-old dynasty."
This statement is still very reasonable. In the real Three Kingdoms period, it was a world dominated by aristocratic families.
In the mythical world, this is the case. Countless families that are as bright as stars are completely controlled by these top families in terms of economy, politics, military and other aspects.
The civilians knelt down at the feet of these aristocratic families and begged for business, while the small families were driven by these aristocratic families and united by them to try to get a share of the pie.
There are countless aristocratic families, and the most dazzling one among them is undoubtedly the Yuan family of Runan of [Four Generations and Three Dukes].
In addition, during the banquet, there were also slightly lower-level figures such as Yin Wang Yun from Henan, Shangshu Lu Zhi from the Ministry of Personnel, and Lang Huaxin from the Secretary of State.
These are all celebrities in Luozhong.
The most eye-catching ones are the two sitting not far away from Yuan Wei.
They are two young men on the top of the left. They sit side by side, they look a little similar, both of them are handsome and imposing, but their faces are full of solemn and thoughtful.
These two are Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, the two most outstanding children of the younger generation of the Yuan family in Runan.
Yuan Shu was wearing a black brocade robe at this time, with dense scales on it.
With a fair and handsome face and gorgeous clothes, he looked like a handsome young man and had a noble character.
The one around him is also handsome in terms of appearance, comparable to Yuan Shu, and even slightly better than Yuan Shao.
Of course, although Yuan Shao's appearance is similar to Yuan Shu, the temperaments of the two are completely different.
Yuan Shao was not as sharp as Yuan Shu, and he looked down on everyone's boldness.
But it is as gentle as the spring breeze and as faint as the early sun in winter.
Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, one of them is arrogant and arrogant, while the other is calm, peaceful, kind and gentle.
The birth of the Yuan family, Runan, the first family in the world, has two completely different temperaments.
At this time, Wenmingyuan was full of talents and very prosperous.
It seems that the powerful figures in Luozhong all received invitations and gathered here this time.
However, the real guest and host Dong Zhuo have not been there for a long time.
After a long time, suddenly, outside Wenmingyuan, a sound of mountains began to rush like a tide.
Everyone quickly turned their heads and looked out, only to see that it was Dong Zhuo who arrived with his troops.
At this time, the real host of the banquet finally arrived, and everyone's eyes turned to Dong Zhuo's place.
Whether it was Yuan Wei, Wang Yun and others, they were all disgusted when they saw it at first sight.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Dong Zhuo walked in with a fierce look, and behind Dong Zhuo, hundreds of fully armed soldiers were closely following.
The body was filled with bloody aura that could not be concealed. It was the most elite warrior under Dong Zhuo's command, Feixiong Jun.
The civil and military officials present, watching Fei Xiong Jun and Dong Zhuo enter together, were so arrogant that they dared not let out.
Yuan Wei and Wang Yun also looked behind Dong Zhuo, and of course their faces changed. Of course, the one who was surprised was not Fei Xiong Jun, but Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang who followed closely behind Dong Zhuo.
This means that the signal is extremely clear, which means that the general He Jin's troops have completely come to Dong Zhuo's hands.
Especially Wang Yun, his face showed an extremely complex color. The few of them were originally the most trusted confidants under the command of General He Jin, and the soldiers of He Jin Xiyuan were left to the two to take charge.
Unexpectedly, after He Jin died, these two people had already changed a new master and became Dong Zhuo's command.
But it is not for the two of them to blame. He Jin is dead at this time, and it is hard to say that they are unfaithful.
It can only be said that those who know the times are heroes.
And the leader among the soldiers is even more a tall and upright person.
The facial features on his face were like gold and iron carvings, with an extremely cold feeling. It was Lu Bu Lu Fengxian, who was known as the number one general in Bingzhou.
Everyone in the field showed a look of fear or a look of terror on their faces when they saw Lu Bu.
Lu Bu's martial arts cultivation reached incredible. His reputation had already been out of Bingzhou. Even the people in Luoyang had heard of it.
A few days ago, Lu Bu rebelled against Ding Yuan with one person, causing the entire Bingzhou army to change its ownership and join Dong Zhuo's troops, which greatly increased the power of Dong Zhuo's troops.
And as he joined Dong Zhuo's command, the balance of the entire situation in Luozhong was completely changed.
If the Yuan family's forces were compared with Dong Zhuo's forces before.
Although Dong Zhuo has the upper hand, if the Yuan power definitely has the power to fight.
Then as Lu Bu suddenly rebelled with the power of thunder and led the Bingzhou army to completely join Dong Zhuo's camp.
The military strength in the entire Luoyang city has actually been completely subverted, and it was Dong Zhuo's faction that it had the upper hand.
After Dong Zhuo entered the banquet, the banquet continued.
Although everyone looked trembling and looked very scared in front of many soldiers, they could only perform this Hongmen banquet under Dong Zhuo's threat.
However, the Grand Tutor Yuan Wei, Shangshu Lu Zhi, Henan Yin Wang Yun, Sili Captain Yuan Shao and others all had heavy expressions on their faces.
They all knew that Dong Zhuo's banquet was definitely not just about eating and drinking.
Everyone wanted to leave, but looking at the soldiers who were fully armed and murderous intent behind Dong Zhuo, they could only bear it.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone had passed for a long time without realizing it in the extremely depressing silence.
Dong Zhuo suddenly stood up and waved his hand to signal Song and Wu to retreat.
The huge banquet venue suddenly became quiet, and everyone in the venue gathered on Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo, wearing armor, held the long sword at his waist and said in a deep voice: "I have a word, listen quietly. The emperor is the lord of all people. Without majesty, you cannot serve the ancestral temple and the country!
If Zi is faint today, he really cannot afford to be the world of this great man. Such a cowardly person is not worthy of being the master and inheriting the position of Longting!
I don't think King Chenliu is as smart as King Chenliu and studious, and can be accorded the throne. I want to imitate Yi Yin, Huo Guang abolished the emperor and appointed King Chenliu. What do the ministers think?"
When Yuan Wei heard this, his eyes immediately changed and his eyes were bloodshot.
He was naturally extremely angry when he heard this in his heart, but he couldn't get into an attack.
Looking at the soldiers behind Dong Zhuo who were full of blood-demonic aura, murderous and extremely majestic, he forcibly suppressed what he said and heard in his heart and dared not say it out loud.
Especially among the soldiers behind, the figures of Wu Kuang, Zhang Zhang, Lu Bu, Hua Xiong and others who appeared faintly made him extremely afraid.
He knew that once he spoke, it represented the view of the entire Yuan family in Runan, and that he would have a fight with Dong Zhuo in front of him.
He was the head of the Yuan family of Runan, and his words represented the decision of the Yuan family of Runan.
Yuan Wei could die, but the Yuan family in Runan could not perish here.
So he dared not say it, nor could he say it.
When Yuan Wei endured humiliation for decades, he planned countless times and could not fall here.
Wang Yun lowered his head and remained silent. He knew that this was a secret confrontation between the Yuan clan and the Dong Zhuo clan.
If he stood up rashly, he would probably crush him into pieces.
These two terrifying forces are like elephants, they are just small ants.
As for the other three dukes and nine ministers on the field, they all looked at each other and dared not say much.
Cao Cao sighed and finally said nothing.
He knew that now Lu Bu and Feixiong Army were suppressing Luoyang City.
