Chapter 18 Putting the Long Line

Dong Zhuo now has a bit of a sense of being proud of the spring breeze.

Yesterday, I received news from Luoyang that the emperor seemed to be promoting him again. After years of hard work, he finally got a result. How could he not be happy?

Over the past few years, he has been deliberately trying to establish a good relationship with the aristocratic race, but because he is vulgar and has no backer in the court, he has never been able to become one of them. On the contrary, his uncle He Jin has repeatedly expressed his kindness to him.

Dong Zhuo is no longer the Guangwu Order of the past.

He wanted to be a bigger official and have greater power so that those aristocratic races could see that Dong Zhuo was not easy to bully.

The power of the aristocratic clan is so terrible that a mere disciple of the Wei family can make him look up.

Whenever Dong Zhuo thinks of this, he feels a sense of evil fire. Since Wei Qing, the general of the previous dynasty, he has become a great clan in Hedong. After three hundred years of operation, he has a complicated and complicated relationship in Hedong.

If you don’t know until Hedong, the mere prefect is not in the eyes of others.

I thought that Dong Zhuo would continue his order, but he had to go through a lot of obstruction. By the time he implemented it in the local area, it had changed its taste.

There are traces of the Wei clan in Hedong.

I think Wei Qing, the ancestor of his Wei family, was originally just an illegitimate son of a county official. Later, he became a cavalry slave of Princess Pingyang's family. He was favored by his sister Wei Zifu to display his talents. To put it bluntly, he was not as good as Dong Zhuo.

But now...

Dong Zhuo has begun to imagine that one day he can hold the murder sword and must humiliate the Wei clan well.

Opportunities are created by people. In recent years, he has made friends with royal relatives, and at the same time, Zhang Rang and others who secretly bribed the Ten General Staff, and finally got what they wanted.

But unexpectedly, a letter from Lintao made his good mood disappear all of a sudden.

Tang Zhou was secretly escorted to Hedong, and together they came the handwritten letter from Mrs. Dong and her son-in-law Niu Fu. And the person escorted was his daughter Dong Zhao. Dong Zhuo immediately realized that something big must have happened in Lintao.

After reading the letter, he asked Dong Zhao again. Dong Zhuo immediately found his son-in-law Li Ru.

After explaining the incident in Lintao in detail, Dong Zhuo asked: "Wenzheng, how about I want to report this matter to the court?"

Li Ru looked at the letter over and over again. When he heard Dong Zhuo's inquiry, he pondered for a moment and said, "Father-in-law, it may be inappropriate to report it now... Mother also said that Tang Zhou had told him that Zhang Jiao had secretly colluded with some people in the court, but he was afraid that the power had been achieved. Now, Zhang Jiao is in high reputation and even some aristocratic races are connected. In addition, the Taiping Dao has not been revealed. If he rashly reports to the court, not only will he not make any contribution, but he will be implicated."

Dong Zhuo was in a dilemma, "Zhuo was determined to report to the country, to assure the people, and to live up to the emperor's kindness. This matter is of great importance. If it is not reported to the court as early as possible, if the matter is exposed in the future, we will be more involved."

"otherwise!"

Li Ru smiled: "From Wen Zheng, Zhang Jiao is just a guy who pretends to be a ghost. Although he has ambition, he does not have enough talent, which is not enough to worry. In addition, the Taiping Taoist sect has a large number, and Zhang Jiao is in a strong voice. Taking a rash attack will only cause riots. When the time comes to the medieval tribe, he will only say that it is our officials who are forcing the people to rebel, and my father-in-law will be difficult to explain clearly."

"That means Wen Zheng..."

"The Confucians thought that since Zhang Jiao was going to make trouble, they might as well let him make trouble. We just need to arrange a detailed plan by Zhang Jiao, to find out the truth and reality of Taiping Road, and to find out which aristocratic clans and Zhang Jiao were connected in the court. When Taiping Road was about to rebel, we should take the initiative. At that time, the thieves from Zhang Jiao fell into our hands, and the aristocratic clans could not distinguish them."

"That's right, I'll get involved in the Wei family..."

"No, you can't involve the Wei family."

Dong Zhuoqi said: "Why?"

"The Wei family's 300-year-old clan has been deeply rooted in Hedong, and countless Qingliu in the court have spoken to it. Zhang Jiao's affairs can eliminate some small and medium clans, but for big clans like the Wei family, I'm afraid... what we have to do is to gain power through Zhang Jiao's affairs. As long as we have greater power, we will deal with the Wei family... then the father-in-law and the Wei family must be fatal, and they must not be relieved, otherwise we will suffer."

Dong Zhuo thought about it and nodded slightly, "The son-in-law is right. My mother asked me to make the decision, but I'm afraid that I would have such an idea."

"Didn't the old lady send that Tang Zhou? In fact, it has been planned for us. We only need to do this and this... By then, my father-in-law will definitely become a hero of the Han Dynasty. Isn't it easy to win the Hedong Wei family?"

Dong Zhuo smiled and said, "This plan of a virtuous son-in-law is indeed a good idea. You will take care of this matter according to the virtuous son-in-law's words."

Li Ru hesitated for a moment and said, "In addition, thanks to my elder sister's timely return home, otherwise the family might be in danger. My father-in-law and brother-in-law came all the way to ask for an official position. I think it would be better to help him, so that I can also amaze my elder sister's wishes."

Dong Zhuo stood up and wandered in the living room.

"I understand what Yu'er means. I like it very much when she asked Beigong Bo to send the Red Rabbit Horse this time. But Wenzheng, you also know that the civil and military officials in the court look down on me very much. If I ask for an official for Beigong Bo, I am afraid that they will be ridiculed."

Li Ru smiled coldly and said, "My father-in-law, even if you don't ask for an official position for your elder brother-in-law, will the civil and military officials in the court laugh at you?"

"this……"

"You show goodwill to the general, but you don't know that the general may not be at ease with you. The more you have the power, the more he will be guarding against you. Instead of doing this, it's better to just tell the general that you have nothing to do with those Qingliu. How can the general not understand when they are both powerful? Besides, maybe the more you ask for an official position for your family, the happier the general."

To be honest, Dong Qi looks like Dong Zhuo, but he looks uglier than Dong Zhuo.

Especially those eyes, which are slender and give people a very gloomy feeling. This feature is more obvious to Dong Zhuo.

He narrowed his eyes and his eyes flashed.

"Can Wen Zheng explain in detail?"

"Father-in-law, have you forgotten that Xiao He asked Tian to have a question?"

Xiao He was the founding father of the Western Han Dynasty and the person Liu Bang, the Emperor Gaozu of Han, relied most heavily on the people. He was good at internal affairs. Liu Bang and Xiang Yu were defeated many times in the battle, but the source of troops and food and grass were never cut off. Once, Liu Bang went on a war and entrusted the government affairs of the whole country to Xiao He. It was nonsense to say that Liu Bang did not doubt Xiao He. All his family background was handed over to the other party. If Xiao He had a little disobedient heart, Liu Bang would die without a place to bury him.

In order to eliminate Liu Bang's suspicion, Xiao He forced himself to buy land and made a stance to ask for land and house.

When the papers were sent to Liu Bang, Liu Bang's doubts were all gone. Li Ru asked for the field and asked for the house, which made Dong Zhuo suddenly realize.

Li Ru continued: "In the letter of the second brother-in-law, he said that the Lintao official was killed by a horse thief. The old lady sent the second sister to him, in fact, just to tell her father-in-law that Lintao must not fall into the hands of others. Since officials of all sizes were killed, he simply appointed his second brother-in-law as the Lintao County Captain. The official was not very high, but he was in real power. In addition, the power in our family, Lintao is as solid as a decent."

“This plan is very good, very good.”

"The father-in-law can ask for an official position for his elder brother-in-law. On the one hand, it is Sister An's heart, and on the other hand, it is able to bribe his elder brother-in-law. Although the elder brother-in-law is not very capable, he is the leader of Jincheng Po Qiang after all. Giving him an official position, he would not bow to you? If you can provide support to your elder brother-in-law at home, who can be the opponent of the elder brother-in-law in Xiliang? At that time, the Qiang King will be his."

Dong Zhuo frowned, "What does Beigong Bo have to do with me as the King of Qiang?"

Li Ru clenched his fists and said, "Now that aristocratic clans are in power, and if they want to become successful, they must have fists. The eldest brother-in-law is the King of Qiang, and hundreds of thousands of cavalry of Xiliang will enter the hub of his father-in-law. Whoever wants to touch his father-in-law, wouldn't he consider the cavalry of Xiliang?"

Dong Zhuo's eyes shone, "Wen Zheng is indeed a successful country plan. This plan is very good, very good!"

He pulled Li Ru to discuss some details, and then Dong Zhuo let Li Ru go.

Standing on the steps of the prefect's mansion, Li Ru suddenly smiled.

It is said that Dong Zhuo is smart, but in fact, the smartest person is probably the old lady.

Two thousand horse thieves, plus thousands of Taiping Taoist people, can Niu Fu calm down? He, Li Ru, would not believe that he was killed.

He had no disgust towards Niu Fu, but Li Ru also knew that this person had no talent, so being a general was his limit.

Niu Fu is a steady person by nature, but to put it bluntly, he is timid.

This person can govern a place, but if he wants to fight between the two armies, he is afraid that his talents will not be enough. There will definitely be someone to help him here.

Big sister Dong Yu is one of them, but she will never be the only one.

A Chou... Neither the old lady, Niu Fu, Mrs. Dong or Dong Zhao mentioned A Chou. This is a strange thing in itself. Dong Zhuo doesn't like A Chou, so he can ignore it. But Li Ru couldn't. I remember that the murder song of Dong Qi in the martial arts scene left a deep impression on him, so that he can't forget it now.

No one mentioned such a fierce person?

Li Ru shook his head gently: Old lady, you are such a deep plan. I left a beast as a surprise weapon for our old Dong family.

But this beast, old lady, can still be used by the family when you are there. If you are not there, who can control it?

Li Ru couldn't help but think of Dong Huang. This guy has become the same since he came to Hedong. He eats, drinks and has fun all day long, and is very close to the Wei family. I hope this kid can keep his mouth shut, otherwise he will be unable to even save his father-in-law.

Shake your head, forget it!

I don’t need to have a headache about these things, but the old lady will worry about them.

I still think about what to do about Taipingdao... Let's take a long time and get a big fish. Hehe, old lady, you can plan!

——————————————

I recommend a good book, an extremely lewd author, and an extremely lewd book written by him.
