Chapter 248 Dong Zhuo also has long-term concerns

Dong Qi is not unfamiliar with the things in the brocade box.

Because this thing was handed over to Dong Zhuo from his hands, the imperial seal is the imperial seal that represents luck.

Dong Zhuo swayed the jade seal, and after a moment, he wrapped the jade seal in yellow silk and pushed it in front of Dong Qi.

"Father, what do you mean?"

Dong Zhuo smiled and said, "Xiping, now I will hand over this treasure to you. You must protect it. This is related to the future prosperity of my Dong family. You need to take it seriously. Only you and I know about this matter, so don't let the third person know about it."

Dong Qi didn't understand and looked at Dong Zhuo in confusion, not knowing what his father meant.

The jade seal is not very useful in Dong Zhuo's hands. However, in Dong Zhuo's hands, it is equivalent to maintaining the imperial rule of the Han Dynasty and has the effect of intimidating the princes. At this time, this thing is obviously more important to Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo leaned in the Grand Master's chair, "You put it away first."

Dong Qi did not dare to disobey, so he put the jade seal obediently, and then asked Dong Zhuo with a questioning look.

"In the battle of Jingzhao, we won a complete victory and had the purpose of intimidating the princes. But the problem is that although we shocked the princes, to some extent, it was a complete turn of confrontation with the gentry. Originally, the party members could have eased it, but now, we must face the various cold calculations and hidden arrows from the soldiers... that is the most dangerous thing."

Dong Qi nodded, "The boy understands."

Dong Zhuo was serious: "I thought the problem was complicated, but I didn't expect it to be so complicated. Xiping, my father is old. Since the Wenxiu incident, I often dream about the past and brother... It turns out that I plan to hone you for a while and wait for you to get to the top. But this time I got sick, I understand that you must get a firm foothold as soon as possible."

“You mean…”

"This time you are appointed as the Han'an Protectorate, I hope you can stand up and truly stand alone. In the northwest, I will entrust you with all my support. Wen Zheng and Dafang will also support you with all your strength. Let me tell me what you need, and I will find a way to solve it for you. All you have to do is to gain a foothold as soon as possible and form the Han'an Army as soon as possible."

There was a sudden excitement in Dong Qi's heart.

Is this meant that my dad wants him to set up his own business?

It can be said that Dong Qi has been waiting for this opportunity all the time, but when the opportunity really comes, he feels confused.

Dong Zhuo's meaning is very clear. From now on, he will face all kinds of difficulties alone, and his father will not shelter him from the wind and rain. Although he has been looking forward to it, Dong Chu now feels that he is not prepared.

"Father……"

"After you get married, you will take King Chenliu away from Luoyang."

"ah?"

Dong Zhuo smiled and said, "I know you have been with King Chenliu for a long time and have a lot of feelings. To be honest, if there were no last emperor's will, I would not want to abolish him. After all, a weak and gentle emperor is in a way more in line with my hopes. However, King Chenliu will face more dangers when he continues to stay in Luoyang."

Dong Qi hesitated for a moment, "You mean, Your Majesty..."

"Don't underestimate that little guy, but he is a cruel and ruthless person. I don't know how the empress dowager taught him. At a young age, he is... Although he is honest now, he is actually very smart. King Chenliu is already fourteen. If he continues to stay in Luoyang, I am afraid that the little guy will be more worried about him, and I cannot always protect him carefully."

The little guy Dong Zhuo mentioned was about Emperor Liu Xie of Han.

He is already nine years old, but he reveals a coldness that makes Dong Zhuo a little wary.

As he said, let King Chenliu be in Luoyang, sooner or later, the little emperor will kill him.

In fact, in Dong Zhuo's view, Yuan Wei and others' counterattack before their deaths would not have the shadow of the little emperor.

Dong Qi frowned slightly, and his father had no respect for the little emperor in his words. If he allowed this mentality to develop, he would be afraid...

"Father!"

"Okay, you need to say nothing, I will take the right track."

How many years has Dong Zhuo been in the officialdom? He immediately understood Dong Qi's thoughts.

I feel very comfortable, which means that this ugly boy is still very smart and will not suffer any major losses if he releases it.

"This matter is decided!" Dong Zhuo said seriously: "You must remember that King Chenliu, Jade Seal, Empress Dowager... These are the three treasures in the hands of our Dong family. If something happens to me one day in the future, they will be the hope for the Dong family to rise again."

Dong Qi nodded, "Boy understand!"

Then, hesitated for a moment and said softly: "Dad, there is one thing that I have been hiding from you. I hope you will forgive me."

Dong Zhuo explained the matter and seemed to be very relaxed.

He heard it and laughed, "What's the matter?"

"In fact, six years ago, without your consent, I ordered people to occupy three counties including Zhangye and Hexi," he said.

Dong Zhuo didn't react for a moment and looked at Dong Qiong blankly.

"You mean, the strong men in Zhangye are Xiping's troops?"

Of course, Dong Zhuo could not know about Zhangye's situation. However, when Chen Dao first occupied Zhangye, Dong Zhuo was not able to take care of it. When he had the ability, Zhangye had become a climate. If Dong Zhuo forced his attack, it would not be worth the loss. Anyway, Zhangye's strong men did not cause chaos. On the contrary, blocking the Qiang people in the Western Regions will be of great benefit to Liangzhou.

But Dong Zhuo never expected that it was actually a person arranged by Dong Qi.

Dong Qi immediately told his worries. Of course, he hid the idea of ​​establishing a self-employed person at that time, and said that it was just to be careful that he came up with a plan to occupy Zhangye in order to prevent the Dong family from going into trouble in the future.

After hearing this, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but laugh.

From the beginning, I nodded and smiled, I couldn't help laughing loudly.

"With the Lion, my Dong family can be prosperous, I don't need to worry about it..." Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "I am very happy that you have such a long-term plan in Xiping. I believe that the leader who occupied Zhangye is Chen Dao who fought with you in the past."

Dong Qi nodded and reported Chen Dao, Huang Shao and Jia Xu's names one by one.

Dong Zhuo smiled and after hearing this, "These are your divisions, you should comfort them properly. Just as you will protect Han'an, Zhangye, and the area of ​​Zhangye is also under your jurisdiction, so it should not be a problem. Well, I said, I always feel that there seem to be a few people around you, especially Huang Shao... I thought something happened to these people, but it turned out that you had already made arrangements. But..."

The topic of this conversation suddenly changed, and the smile on Dong Zhuo's face disappeared.

Dong Qi hurriedly said, "Please give me advice."

"Zhangye is under your control. This matter is known by heaven and earth. You and I know, so you should not let too many people know. King Chenliu, the jade seal, is the open guarantee of our Dong family, and Zhangye's troops are our secret last move. A few days ago, I heard from Wen Zheng that Ma Teng had submitted a request to surrender. I planned to approve what he reported, and also appointed him as the prefect of Wuwei."

"oh?"

"I will let him attack Zhangye... Do you understand what I mean?"

Dong Qi was stunned at first, and then he understood what Dong Zhuo meant. My father's move was clearly intended to cover up his eyes.

Ma Teng?

Dong Qi suddenly remembered something, "Father, it's okay to appoint Ma Teng as the prefect of Wuwei, but this person... has been repeatedly and has had a good relationship with Han Sui, so it's okay. I heard that he has a son named Ma Chao, why not let him be a charity?"

In Dong Qi's mind, he didn't know how great Ma Teng was.

But he kept the name of Ma Teng, Jin Ma Chao, in mind. One of the Five Tiger Generals of Western Shu in the future, killed Cao Cao to cut his beard and abandon his robe on the banks of the Zhang River. Although Ma Chao did not have the chance to show his power in the later period of the Romance, Jin Ma Chao's reputation still made Dong Qi feel a little worried. This kid will definitely become a character.

Detain Ma Chao in Luoyang...

Dong Qi sneered in his heart: The environment creates people. Without the soil of Liangzhou, can Jinma Chao still become Jinma Chao?

But Dong Zhuo didn't think so much, making Ma Chao a proton sound like a good thing.

At least I can give Ma Teng some concerns, just like He Jin transferred Dong Qi to Luoyang as a proton.

"Xi Ping's plan is very good!"

The situation between Ma Chao and Dong Qi is completely different.

When Dong Qicheng entered Luoyang, he was already a famous general of tigers and wolves all over the world.

Now Ma Chao is just an unknown boy. After being transferred to Luoyang, he can only become an ordinary proton.

Therefore, Dong Qi doesn't have to worry about Ma Chao coming to Luoyang to cause trouble, because Luoyang is now different from earlier.

*******

My father pulled Dong Qi and said something for a long time.

From the time my father was so arrogant in the northwest to Dong Qi’s fame all over the world, Dong Zhuo seems to be very grateful for the past years, and it’s endless to say.

It was not until very late that the two of them returned to their rooms.

Cai Yan didn't rest, and chatted with Dong Lu and Ren Hongchang while teasing Dong Ji, who could already walk on the ground.

Xiao Wenji is already five years old, and she has lost her pink and jade carvings.

He fell asleep leaning against Cai Yan's arms, and he giggled from time to time.

Seeing Dong Qi come in, Ren Hongchang's face suddenly turned red. She had heard that in a few days, she would become a member of the Dong family.

At home, you naturally don’t need to wear that Luo Shi mask.

This shyness reveals infinite charm, and the shyness in charm and the affection in shyness make Dong Qi's heart thump.

It was already three days later, so I simply stopped sleeping.

Dong Qi held Dong Ji and talked to the three girls until dawn.

According to the habit he developed since childhood, at the fifth day of the fifth day, Dong Qi had to practice martial arts. Even though he didn't sleep all night, Dong Qi still came to the small school ground with the confused Dong Ji.

Dian Wei and Shamoke have already started practicing martial arts, and the four little tigers of the Dian family are also practicing the Five Animals Guidance technique.

The three brothers haven't met for a long time, so there are naturally many things to say when they get together.

However, Dong Qi found that Dian Wei was a little abnormal and couldn't help but ask strangely: "Brother, do you... have something to say?"

Dian Weihan smiled, scratching her head and not speaking.

Shamoke leaned into Dong Qi's ear and muttered a few words, which made Dong Qi's eyes widen.

"No!"
