Chapter 83: The Battle in the Court (5)


Dong Zhuo was so angry with Liu Cheng that the fat on his face trembled.

He jumped up and pointed at Liu Cheng and cursed angrily: "Liu, what do you mean by threatening our family?"

Liu Cheng said with a cold face: "I'm threatening you, you fat pig.

Why are you and I cheating?

I'm here to tell you that you want to mess with others.

I can't control it, but you want to take advantage of me.

If you stretch out a finger, I will chop off one of your fingers; if you stretch out a hand, I will chop off one of your hands."

Dong Zhuo was so angry that his face turned red and his neck thickened: "Are you going to have sex with our family again?"

Liu Cheng approached and said, "Just do it.

If you don't think I'm afraid of you, if the Queen Mother hadn't suppressed you, I would have pulled off all your fat and lit an oil lamp."

Dong Zhuo was frightened by Liu Cheng's fierce look and took a step back.

His momentum weakened slightly and his tone softened: "At first you said you should follow the rules and not use force casually.

Now you don't follow the rules, are arrogant and unreasonable, and you can't.

You have the final say on everything."

Liu Cheng sneered: "If I don't follow the rules, when will you really follow the rules?

Since you say so, should General Zhu Jun be allowed to take office in the City Guards?

Should Lord Zhang be allowed to take office in the Xiyuan Army?"

If these two adults are allowed to take office and hand over the military power of the Xiyuan Army and the City Guards, I will agree to let Duan Yan serve as the infantry captain of the Northern Army, how about?"

How could Dong Zhuo be willing to give up the power of the Xiyuan Army and the City Guard Army?

He knew that it would be very difficult for him to extend his hand into the Northern Army in a short time.

Seeing that Liu Cheng looked like he was going to fight him desperately, he fought After retreating, he looked at Zhu Jun and said with a smile: "General Zhu has outstanding military exploits.

It is too unfair to take up the post of city gate captain.

Mr.

Zhang is now taking the post of guard captain.

He is too busy with his own responsibilities.

How can he do it?"

You two have free time to act as military affairs agent, what do you think?"

Zhu Jun and Zhang Wen stared at Dong Zhuo at the same time and snorted: "Huh."

Lu Zhi looked around and asked, "Do you have anything else to say?

If not, then let's leave."

As everyone was about to disperse, Dong Zhuo said again: "Everyone, I have a question.

This Chengming Hall is the place where ministers discuss and handle government affairs.

How can generals be allowed to participate in government affairs?

What does it have to do with generals?

I propose that from now on, Generals are not allowed to participate in the Chengmingtang meeting, what do you think?"

Since ancient times, the civil servants and military generals in the court were not easy to deal with.

The civil servants were always worried that the military generals would snatch their power.

The military generals were not willing to be used as pawns by the civil servants, so they often had tit-for-tat confrontations.

Which side did the emperor help?

The power is great, and the conflict between the two sides has been long-standing.

Yang Biao, Zhang Xun, Ma Rixi, Xun Shuang, Han Rong and others all agreed that "goodness" "Yes, this is a discussion about government affairs, so generals should not participate."

The one with the highest official position among the generals stood up and said angrily: "We are all a bunch of poor and rotten people.

We can manage the world well just by relying on you nerds.

I'm not allowed to participate.

I don't even bother to come.

It's a shame for me to be associated with poor people like you." , I’m sorry I won’t accompany you anymore, I’ll take my leave.”

Lu Zhi hurriedly stopped him: "Gongwei, don't be arrogant and say what you have to say.

Now is the time for the imperial court to employ people."

"There's nothing more to say, Zigan, just take care of yourself."

After Zhu Jun finished speaking, he ignored Lu Zhi's obstruction and walked out of Chengming Hall.

Liu Cheng sneered in his heart.

He knew that Dong Zhuo did this to get rid of him.

As long as he did not appear in Chengming Hall, Dong Zhuo would concentrate on dealing with these old ministers with ulterior motives.

He would push them to the ground one by one and beat them hard to make them submit. , deprive them of their power.

But this is exactly what Liu Cheng wants.

As long as Dong Zhuo doesn't have any plans for the Northern Army, he will let Dong Zhuo do what he wants.

Anyway, he and the Queen Mother He want to use Dong Zhuo's hand to deal with these people who eat bones and have evil intentions.

Ministers.

Liu Cheng immediately stood up and snorted: "If you don't participate, you won't participate.

Do you think I am willing to participate in such boring discussions?

Xu Rong, Wu Fu, let's go."

This time the Chengmingtang meeting ended unhappily, but in general, Dong Zhuo achieved part of his purpose by prohibiting military generals from entering Chengmingtang to discuss government affairs, especially the Northern Army generals headed by Liu Cheng.

People can suppress his voice in many government decisions.

Several consensuses reached by Chengmingtang in the morning were quickly presented to the imperial court in the form of memorials.

After reading one of the memorials, Empress Dowager He looked a little ugly.

After reading one memorial in a row, she could not contain the anger on her face and shouted: " Come, tell Liu Cheng to come over."

"promise" Liu Cheng rushed over quickly after receiving the notice from the eunuch.

When he entered the palace, he saw the Empress Dowager He with a bad face.

He knew that she must have read the memorial sent from the Chancellor's Desk.

He bowed and said, "I pay my respects to the Empress Dowager."

"Get up, take a look at these memorials.

You also went to Chengming Hall in the morning.

Why didn't you object to what they negotiated?"

Empress Dowager He handed the memorial to Zhao You, who in turn handed the memorial to Liu Cheng.

Liu Cheng took it and read it again and said: "The Queen Mother does not agree with these opinions on the Shangshutai."

Queen Mother He dismissed all the eunuchs and maids, and said to Liu Cheng: "Wang Kuang was appointed as the governor of Hanoi.

This man joined Dong Zhuo to kill the brother of the Ai family.

How could the Ai family tolerate him and Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang?

They During the palace coup, they were the main generals who led troops to attack the palace.

Some time ago, the Ai family had no time to pay attention to them.

Now how can they let them go out of the capital and live happily without killing them?

The Ai family feels so bad.

The Chu Ai family would not agree to let them go to the capital to take up their posts.

Dong Zhuo asked for merit for his subordinates, and said that Dong Yue and Duan Xuan were the Zhonglang generals, and that Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Hua Xiong, Zhang Xiu, etc.

Niu Fu, Dong Min and others are generals "There is also a suggestion that the generals should no longer participate in the Chengmingtang meetings.

This is nonsense.

This article is obviously aimed at you.

It must be Dong Zhuo's fault.

The Ai family has decided not to publish these memorials."

Liu Cheng thought for a while and said to the Queen Mother He: "Queen Mother, now the royal family's prestige has declined, and the Queen Mother has come to rule the court as a woman.

Many courtiers are dissatisfied.

They say one thing on the surface but another behind the scenes.

I think if it is not related to the country.

Major decisions of Sheji , the Queen Mother had better not veto it.

After all, this was the collective agreement of the Three Gongs and Nine Ministers.

The Queen Mother vetoed the collective proposal of Chengmingtang, which means she does not trust them.

Without their support, how can the Queen Mother govern the world?"

"In addition, didn't the Queen Mother say that she would use Dong Zhuo to eradicate those ministers who had already harbored different ambitions in the court?

This kind of thing is difficult for the Queen Mother to do, and she can't do it.

She can only let the evil Dong Zhuo do it.

Since then, other courtiers They will only hate Dong Zhuo even more, maybe they will attach themselves to him on the surface, but secretly hate him deeply.

Only if Dong Zhuo kills those people, will they fight with him."

"In addition, there is a saying that the Queen Mother may have heard.

If you want to kill someone, you must first make him crazy.

If Dong Zhuo is not crazy and acts cautiously, how will we have the chance to get rid of him and disintegrate his power?"
