After the court meeting, the ministers gradually dispersed.
The newly promoted minister Zhou Ai and the city gate captain Wu Qiong had just walked out of the palace gate together.
A man who looked like an entourage came towards them and said to them: "Two gentlemen, the master of the house invites you."
Wu Qiong asked: "Who is the head of your family?"
The attendant took out something from his arms and handed it over and said, "The master said that the two adults will understand when they see this."
This is half a jade pendant.
When Wu Qiong took it in his hand and took a look, his expression suddenly changed.
He raised his head to look at Zhou Ao.
The expressions around him also changed.
The two glanced at each other, then turned around and looked around.
Wu Qiong saw no one around him.
Qiong immediately returned half of the jade pendant to the attendant and said: "Lead the way."
"Two adults, please follow me."
The entourage led the two people to a carriage, and the carriage pulled the two people out of the palace quickly.
Not long after, the carriage stopped at the back door of Yuan Mansion, and the two of them were escorted into Yuan Mansion.
Wu Qiong and Zhou Ao were led to a secret room.
At this time, Yuan Wei and Sikong Prefect Shi Heyong were already sitting in the secret room.
They saluted Yuan Wei and said, "I have seen the Taifu before."
Yuan Wei raised his hand and said: "You two don't need to be polite, let's talk after you sit down."
"Thank you, Taifu."
The two of them thanked him and nodded to He Yong, sitting opposite him.
Yuan Wei said with a serious expression: "The changes in today's court meeting exceeded my expectations.
Benchu was too impulsive.
Dong Zhuo must have murderous intentions for him.
Now Benchu cannot stay in Luoyang City any longer, even if he stays The future of Luoyang is also uncertain, and we have to be on guard against Dong Zhuo sending people to hunt us down, so we invited the three of us here mainly because there is something we need to do."
The three of them raised their hands to Yuan Wei and said, "Please give me your instructions."
"Now that the three of you have gained Dong Zhuo's trust, I want you to persuade Dong Zhuo to intercede with Benchu and make him a prefect.
With his qualifications, he can only be a prefect for the time being.
In addition, these people on the list People, I hope you can also persuade Dong Zhuo to let you They are the backbone of our efforts in spreading out.
As long as they succeed in spreading out, great things can be accomplished."
After Yuan Wei finished speaking, he took out a roll of silk from his sleeve and handed it to Wu Qiong, who was the first to follow.
The people around Dong Zhuo are the most trusted by Dong Zhuo, and his words have more weight.
Wu Qiong took the silk, opened it, looked at it, and said in surprise: "Master, there are so many people, will Dong Zhuo agree to let them serve as officials?"
Yuan Wei smiled and touched his long beard and said: "Some of the people above have already taken refuge with Dong Zhuo, and some of them will send people to tell them to have a closer attitude towards Dong Zhuo in the near future.
Dong Zhuo wants to take charge of the world's power, and close to Dong Zhuo It is not possible to control the government.
Even if he is stupid and does not understand, Li Ru and others will definitely remind him to arrange for his people to serve in various state governments to control local power.
At that time, the people on this list can come in handy."
He Yong touched his beard, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "This is a wonderful plan.
As long as these people are released as officials, they can immediately recruit troops and develop their strength after they take office.
Waiting for the opportunity, they can raise the banner in the name of Qingjun.
The princes of the world crusade against Dong Zhuo" Wu Qiong and Zhou Ao were also shocked.
Zhou Ao said with some excitement: "Dong Zhuo thought that those who took refuge in him were afraid of him and wanted to gain his power.
Hmm, in fact, how many of the scholars were Those who sincerely surrender to him are just forced by the current situation and arrogant.
When the time is right, we will raise a rebel army to attack him and cut him into thousands of pieces to satisfy the hatred in our hearts."
He Yong said coldly: "And that Liu Cheng" Yuan Wei ordered: "Don't touch Liu Cheng for the time being.

We also pointed out that he can contain Dong Zhuo for the time being.
If he is knocked down, Dong Zhuo will have nothing to worry about.
If necessary, we can also join forces with Liu Cheng to deal with Dong Zhuo.
At that time, there will be armies of princes from all over the world outside, and Liu Cheng's army inside.
With the internal and external cooperation, Dong Zhuo will definitely be defeated even if he has the power of heaven.
After Dong Zhuo is killed, he can then deal with Liu Cheng."
The three of them stood up and agreed: "No" Right General's Mansion.
Liu Chengtie returned to the mansion with a livid face.
He drank tea and meditated in the lobby.
When the tea was finished, he shouted: "Come here, order Xu Rong, Zhao Yun, Xun Yu, Jia Xu, and Zhang Ji to come over." " "Yes, General" Then Liu Cheng got up and took out a volume of edict from the secret room of his room, opened it and read it.
He got this edict from Liu Bian yesterday.
The content of the edict was to transfer Huangfu Song to return to Beijing to report on his duties, and to confer Xu Rong as General Zhongwu. , succeeded Huangfu Song and led the army to guard Guanzhong, with Zhao Yun as his deputy.
After reading the edict, he returned to the hall and sat down at the head of the hall.
Xun Yu and Jia Xu were the first to arrive.
After they greeted Liu Cheng, Liu Cheng asked them to sit down separately and asked Xun Yu, "Wen Ruo, do you think this general can trust Zhu Jianping?"
Xun Yu pondered for a moment and raised his hands and said: "General, I have known Zhu Jianping for more than a day or two, but for five or six years.
During these five or six years, this man has been staying in Chang'an, hoping to be reused.
However, due to his humble background, he has never been able to This is not reused.
He is upright by nature, but he can see people's hearts.
Friends can trust him with anything, and he has never disappointed anyone.
From these aspects, once Zhu Jianping recognizes the general as his lord, he will not have to worry about his loyalty, and his subordinates can guarantee it with their lives
.
"
Liu Cheng weighed it up and said: "Okay, as the saying goes, don't trust people when you hire them, and don't trust people when you doubt them.
Now that he has been hired and made him the chief interviewer, we can no longer hide many things from him.
Come and invite people."
Mr.
Zhu” Not long after, Xu Rong, Zhao Yun, Zhang Ji and Zhu Jianping arrived one after another.
Liu Cheng waited for everyone to sit down, and then said: "Today at the court meeting in Chengming Hall, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but made an attack.
He first secretly instructed Shaofu Yinxiu and General Wu Xun, the great craftsman, to propose that the three princes jointly take charge of the government.
Ding Yuan demolish it on the spot After discovering his intentions, he immediately revealed his plans and clearly stated that he would be in charge of the government affairs.
He also pressed the three ministers and nine ministers one by one.
At this critical moment, all the cowards softened and no one dared to follow him.
The actions are opposite.”
"Then, Dong Zhuo, who was in great power, proposed to depose the emperor and make Chenliu Wangxie the emperor instead."
Xun Yu was so angry that the sky turned red, and he clenched his fists tightly: "He really wants to abolish the establishment of the government in order to enhance his prestige and take full control of the government.
Will the general just let him do whatever he wants?"
Liu Cheng said solemnly: "When it was my turn to object, the doctor Mingong first stood up to object and pointed at Dong Zhuo's nose and hit the horse.
Dong Zhuo was furious and stabbed him to death with a sword; then Yuan Shao objected, and both sides They drew their swords and almost started a fight on the spot.
Yuan Wei then begged for mercy, and Yuan Shao left in a hurry in anger.
Then Lu Zhi objected and argued with Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo was worried that he had no excuse to kill Lu Zhi, so he wanted to kill Lu Zhi on the spot.
He dragged him out and chopped him off.
Later, the servant Zhou Ao stood up and explained the stakes to Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo let Lu Zhi go, but also removed Lu Zhi from his official position.

In the end, Ding Yuan objected, and Dong Zhuo wanted to kill Ding Yuan again. , but Ding Yuan's adopted son Lu Bu was in the palace at that time.
Dong Zhuo was concerned about Lu Bu's bravery and did not take action.
Yin Xiu came out to smooth things over again.
The matter of abolishing Li had to wait for the next court meeting to discuss, and the court meeting was dismissed. " Jia Xu had newly joined Liu Cheng's staff team and wanted to show off his talent.
He asked: "Did General Dong Zhuo have any conflict with him at court and did he ever oppose Dong Zhuo?"
Liu Chengdao: "At the beginning, there was a conflict between Lu Zhi and Dong Zhuo about who would take charge of the overall affairs of the DPRK.
Dong Zhuo was about to stab Lu Zhi to death, but I, the general, appeared in time to stop him.
Dong Zhuo immediately targeted this general.
At that time, The atmosphere was very tense, and weapons were almost used, but it was Yin Xiu who managed to smooth things over and eased the atmosphere and conflicts.
The general also made it clear that he was unwilling to stand up and take charge of the government.
Dong Zhuo did not target me again."
Jia Xu thought for a moment and said to Liu Cheng: "General, I presume that Dong Zhuo will not attack the general before he abolishes the establishment.
If he is allowed to abolish the establishment, it will be difficult to say later.
But before he abolishes the establishment, it will be difficult to say."
Before anything happens, he will definitely take action against Ding Yuan."
Liu Cheng was shocked and asked: "Why are you telling me your analysis?"
Jia Xu took a sip of tea, stood up and walked in the lobby with one hand behind his back and said: "With the general's current strength, if Dong Zhuo cannot assassinate or kill the general through an ambush, he can only use the army to defeat the Northern Army.
He has a small number of soldiers, and his combat power is not weak.
Even if he defeated the general, he would still suffer heavy losses, and he would be disabled.
Some losses outweighed the gains.
What's more, in a real fight, it is not certain who will lose and who will win.
Before taking control of the government, he would definitely not attack the generals, but Ding Yuan was different.
Ding Yuan's troops were not many, and some of them were still in the city responsible for patrolling the streets of Jinwu Yamen.
Dong Zhuo had to defeat Ding Yuan or kill him.
Ding Yuan showed force to the courtiers and shocked them, so that the abolition could proceed.
Otherwise, Ding Yuan would object anyway, and he did not take any action, and other ministers would attach themselves to Ding Yuan and oppose him."
Liu Cheng nodded, touched his chin and said: "It makes sense, so Dong Zhuo will probably attack Ding Yuan in the near future."
Jia Xu said: "I presume it will not take more than three to five days at the latest."
Jia Xu's inference is very likely to happen, at least Liu Cheng thinks so.
He asked: "What do you think this general should do?
Should I wait and see what happens, or should I get involved?"
"Of course I'll wait and see what changes.
Since the general's strategic policy and big goals have been determined, we must not change it easily, otherwise everything will come."
After the words fell, Zhong Yao walked into the lobby from the outside and greeted Liu Cheng: "Meet the general, Zhong Yao is back."
Liu Cheng immediately went up to him and said: "Yuan Chang is tired, sit down and rest quickly.
Come, serve tea."
Zhong Yao was very thirsty.
He drank several cups of tea before saying to Liu Cheng: "General, I am fortunate to have fulfilled my duty.
I have met Du Kai, the captain of Changshui, and Yang Ru, the captain of Shesheng, and had a deep talk with them.
Both of them made it clear that With the general's obedience, they are willing to obey the general's orders.
Now they have adopted the strategy of traveling day and night and have quietly arrived at Hongnong.
They can reach Luoyang City in six days at most."
Liu Cheng was overjoyed, slapped the short ones and said with a smile: "Okay, hahaha, with these two troops as support, what can Dong Zhuo do to me?"
