Nangong Jiade Hall.
Liu Cheng and Zhao Chun walked up the steps and happened to meet Concubine Tang walking out of the palace.
Liu Cheng immediately saluted: "I have met Concubine Tang."
Concubine Tang replied with a blessing: "General, there is no need to be polite.
The Queen Mother and Her Majesty have been waiting for the general in Nuan Pavilion for a long time.
Go quickly."
She turned around and walked to the right.
"Concubine Tang, please go slowly," Liu Cheng said, and after seeing Concubine Tang walking away, he followed Zhao Chun into the palace.
When she came to Nuange, she met Empress Dowager He and Emperor Liu Bian.
Empress Dowager He raised her hand and said, "Liu Qing, you don't need to be polite.
Come and give me a seat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you Queen Mother."
After Liu Cheng finished speaking, he knelt down on the mat brought by the eunuch.
He turned around and looked around, and found that besides him, there were Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun, Zhang Wen, Huang Wan, and Yang Biao in the Nuan Pavilion. et al.
"Liu Qing, please take a look at this memorial first.
It was submitted by Yilang Pengbo."
After speaking, Queen Mother He handed a roll of bamboo slips to a young eunuch.
The little eunuch handed the bamboo slip to Liu Cheng's hand again.
Liu Cheng took the bamboo slip and opened it and looked at it.
Sure enough, it was what Zhao Chun said.
Peng Bo, the councilor, suggested resetting the guard order of the northern and southern palaces.
The guard order would be responsible for the guards outside the palaces of the northern and southern palaces, and recommended Luoyang.
The county magistrate Zhou Ge and the county Yu Luchi served as the guards of the Nangong and Beigong respectively.
In this way, the guard force in the imperial city is divided into three groups.
The first is the Yulin Army, the second is the Huben Army, and the third is the guards of the North and South Palaces.
The guard orders of the North and South Palaces are directly responsible to the guards, so The guards have a great say in the appointment and dismissal of the two palace guards.
After reading the memorial, Liu Cheng was furious.
He stood up and clasped his fists at Liu Bian and the Queen Mother He and said: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, in my humble opinion, this Peng Bo is simply a pawn pushed out by Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo's purpose is to reach into the palace."
Come on, don't let him succeed."
Empress Dowager He glanced at Liu Cheng, then turned to ask other ministers: "Do you have any opinions that you can share?
Let's take a look at them together.
You can speak freely today, and it will not be a crime to mourn the family."
"Since the Empress Dowager said so, I will just say a few words."
Yang Biao, the servant, said, turning to Liu Cheng and saying: "General Liu, the two palace guards are only small officials with a few hundred dan.
If the imperial court pays for such two The minor official had a stalemate with Dong Zhuo again.
What should he do if Dong Zhuo got angry and sent out an army again?
The good old man thought that this matter was nothing to worry about.
With General Yulin's army and Kong Wenju's Huben army, they did not dare to go too far in the palace. act" Liu Cheng immediately shouted loudly: "He has a large army, but the imperial court has no soldiers and horses.
In the worst case, we can fight him again and finish him completely.
Wouldn't it be nice?"
At this point, Liu Cheng clasped his fists at Liu Bian and the Queen Mother He and said: "Your Majesty, I do not agree to compromise with Dong Zhuo again.
If you compromise with him again and again, he will get worse and worse every time.
I firmly do not agree to make any more concessions to him.
If he wants to fight, the court need not be afraid that other ministers will be the first to lead troops to fight with him."

"It's just the bravery of an ordinary man," Huang Wan rebuked loudly, his eyes, tone and expression full of contempt and disdain.
Liu Cheng suddenly became furious.
He rushed up to Huang Wan and grabbed him by the collar of his clothes.
He said fiercely: "What did you say?
Try saying it again and see if I don't beat you to the ground."
"What are you going to do, loosen up, loosen up quickly?"
Huang Wan was so frightened by Liu Cheng's fierce look that his face turned pale, and his words became stammering.
Liu Cheng moved his face towards me as if he wanted to eat someone: "I won't let you go, what can you do to me?"
"You are a barbarian and a reckless man.
How powerful do you think you are?
If you are really capable, why didn't you defeat Dong Zhuo the night before yesterday?
This shows that you can't defeat Dong Zhuo with just the bravery of an ordinary man.
The court must find another way.
Now Dong Zhuo has strong soldiers and horses and can resist head-on.
He is no match for him at all.
You have fought against him, don’t you feel it?"
At this time, Empress Dowager He said: "Okay, Liu Cheng, Huang Wan is quite old and a weak scholar.
How can he withstand your torment like this?
Let go."
"Hmph, you ministers can only talk nonsense.
When it comes time to show your true nature, you are all so fucking soft.
For the sake of the Queen Mother and Her Majesty, I will let you go for now.
If I hear you insult me again, , I will make you understand why the flowers are so red."
Liu Cheng cursed and pushed Huang Wan away, causing him to stagger and almost fall to the ground.
Liu Cheng then said to Empress Dowager He: "Empress Dowager, I heard that Zhou Ge and Lu Chi recommended by Peng Bo were two scoundrels who roamed the streets in the past.
These two people tried their best to flatter the general in order to get close to him.
After entering the general's palace to work, he behaved extremely sinisterly and cruelly, even worse than the cruel officials in ancient times.
How can such a person be used as the two guards?"
Lu Zhi said: "General Liu, you still have to be careful when speaking.
The general is dead.
Regardless of his merits and demerits during his lifetime, the deceased is the greatest.
Besides, the general is the uncle of the country and the brother of the Queen Mother after all.
Don't say some words."
I told you not to involve the general."
Yes, these words were really lethal.
Liu Cheng was so stunned by these words that he couldn't speak.
His face turned red and he cursed: "If you don't say it, you have to avoid suspicion, right?"
, I'm going to pretend to be deaf and mute.
If you can, go and kill Dong Zhuo.
You can't kill him.
In the end, we have to let us common men deal with him.
If you don't believe it, let's ride on the donkey and read the songbook.
We'll see. " Queen Mother He looked at Lu Zhi and asked: "Lu Shangshu, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
Lu Zhi sighed and said to the Emperor and the Queen Mother: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, and the veterans, the court should not have compromised with Dong Zhuo, but since the court has decided to compromise with Dong Zhuo and cannot change its mind, in this case Stop fussing and insisting on such trivial matters, so as not to cause trouble, and this will also reassure Dong Zhuo.
If no one is in the imperial city, he will definitely not dare to go to court.

If he cannot go to court, how can he let it go?"
Empress Dowager He asked Zhang Wen again: "Zhang Wen, you are a guard, and the guard orders of the northern and southern palaces are under your jurisdiction.
How do you think you should deal with it?"
Zhang Wen stood up and saluted: "Everything is decided by the Queen Mother."
Empress Dowager He weighed the time spent on a cup of tea and said, "In that case, let's agree to what Peng Bo said.
She decreed to reset the two palace guards' orders and appointed Zhou Ge and Lu Chi as the guards of the two palaces in the north and south respectively.
Come on, please step back."
After saying that, he looked at Liu Cheng and gave him a vague wink.
Liu Cheng immediately made a strange gesture to express that he already knew, and then exited the Nuan Pavilion along with other ministers, and everyone walked out of the palace together.
After leaving the palace, the ministers dispersed.
Liu Cheng still had to rush to Datong Bank in the south of the city.
Empress Dowager He just gave him a wink and hinted that she asked him to meet in the tunnel, so he had to rush to Datong Bank to enter the tunnel and meet with He.
Meet the Queen Mother.
Since the Northern Army returned to camp and Dong Zhuo's army entered the city again, although the three thousand Northern Army soldiers led by Wang Shuang were responsible for the security in the city, Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Army's entry into the city still caused great trouble to public security.
Wang Shuang In the past two days, my soldiers and generals have arrested Xiliang for violating public order.
The army was too weak and too many people were arrested.
Dong Zhuo sent people to look for trouble and wanted people.
In order not to cause more and bigger conflicts, Liu Cheng had to order Wang Shuang to arrest those Xiliang soldiers who had not committed serious crimes.
Let them go, but the people who committed murder and arson are still temporarily locked up in jail waiting to be dealt with.
A carriage was driving quickly on the quiet street, and a dozen drunken Xiliang soldiers were greeted in front of it.
Each of these people held a wine jar and staggered around as they walked, swaying every step.
"Lu" Because the light was not very good, when the carriage was about to hit those Xiliang soldiers, the coachman immediately pulled the reins, but a Xiliang soldier in front was still frightened by the fast-moving carriage and sat down. on the ground.
The sudden stop of the carriage made the people in the carriage scream in fright.
Some of the drunken Xiliang soldiers heard it clearly, "There is a woman in the carriage."
The other Xiliang soldiers were all drunk.
When they heard that there was a woman in the carriage, they couldn't control their temper.
They howled one by one and surrounded the carriage
