Night, Situ Mansion.
Wang Yun sat on the main seat, and on his left and right sides were some court officials and generals who supported and respected him.
As the number one hero in planning and killing Dong Zhuo, he was naturally praised and praised by all parties.
He also began to become a little arrogant, even arrogant.
During the two days of gatherings, he no longer discussed matters with these ministers, officials and generals as he did before.
Just like this time, he sat upright with no pleasant expression on his face.
The ministers, officials and generals began to feel that Seeing his change made me feel quite uncomfortable.
Wang Yun had no idea, he said: "Everyone, in the past two days, Dong Zhuo's relatives and cronies have been imprisoned.
How to deal with them next?
I don't know if you have any opinions.
Dong Zhuo can't just do this.
Even if he is dead, the court must give him a final verdict on the crimes he committed."
Taiwei Zhou Zhong looked at Cai Yong sitting next to him and asked, "Master Cai, what do you think?"
Cai Yong remembered that although Dong Zhuo was cruel and unkind, he was still quite good to him, and said in his heart: "It's a pity for Prime Minister Dong.
If he could focus on government affairs and do less killing, he would not end up like this. " Wang Yun became furious after hearing this.
He slapped the table and pointed at Cai Yong and shouted: "Dong Zhuo is the number one thief in the world, causing harm to the country and the people.
Such crimes can never be forgiven.
As your Majesty's minister, as a Minister of the imperial court, you are not coming with us It's just a matter of jointly denouncing Dong Zhuo, but you still care about the little favor he did to you and sigh at his death.
I think you have become Dong Zhuo's confidant.
Come on, arrest Cai Yong and lock him up.
Entered the Tingwei Mansion Prison to await trial."
Cai Yong did not offer any resistance or defense and allowed the soldiers to drag him down.
The ministers and officials present were shocked.
Several people stood up to plead for Cai Yong.
Ma Rixi also stood up and said: "Situ, we all know what Cai Bozhe is like.
When he became a thief, he couldn't help himself.
The situation dictated that.
Sorry, it's not like we are just acting out of feelings.
This is human nature.
Besides, Bo Zhe is a unique talent, knowledgeable and well-informed.
We should give him a chance and ask Situ to follow.
"Easy to lose" "No."
Wang Yun immediately refused and said a lot of words to refute Ma Rixi.
In short, he did not listen to the advice.
At this time Li Su stood up and said: "Situ, almost all of Dong Zhuo's relatives and cronies have been arrested, but there is still one most important person whose whereabouts are unknown, and that is Li Ru.
This person is too harmful.
If Let him escape to Li Jue and Guo Si.
Who knows what troubles he will cause.
I suggest that more people be immediately dispatched to search and arrest, and strictly monitor the gates entering and exiting the city."
Wang Yun immediately agreed: "Then send more manpower to catch Li Ru as soon as possible."
"Follow your orders" General's Mansion, west wing.
Liu Cheng came to the door of a room.
There were four soldiers standing guard at the door.
The door was opened by one of the soldiers, and Liu Cheng walked in.
The people in the room were looking at a scroll of bamboo slips.

When they heard the movement, they looked up, put down the bamboo slips, stood up and bowed their hands to the ground: "Thank you, general, for sending someone to rescue and take you in.
Otherwise, Ru would have been killed by Wang Yun and his gang."
Chopped into meat sauce” Liu Cheng walked to the stool and sat down, looked at Li Ru and said, "Li Ru, what are your plans next?"
Li Ru thought for a while and held up his hands and said: "If possible, I hope the general will let me leave the city.
I have lost my spirit and just want to find a secluded place to spend the rest of my life."
Liu Chengdao: "This general cherishes your intelligence and cannot bear to have you die from a random knife, so it is very interesting to send someone to take you out of the mansion in time and protect you in the general's mansion.
Now that you want to escape from the city, you Do you know that the general is taking a lot of risks by doing this?
Once it is known and spread, it will not be good for the general's reputation.
What can I buy your life for?"
Li Ru couldn't help but smile bitterly, thought for a while and held up his hands and said: "General, Ru has no treasures.
He only has some information to find out the details.
Ru can hand these people over to the general.
I think they will still be of some use to the general."
Liu Cheng thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, I'll buy your life with these fine works, but I can't make the deal."
"You should know how much damage Dong Zhuo has caused to the Han Dynasty with your assistance since he came to Beijing.
How should this account be settled?
Now, this general has decided to clean up the poisonous tumors in the court, restore the various systems of the imperial court, and rectify the administration of officials.
Solve the many problems that actually exist in the government, eradicate the feudal forces that are separatist in various places, and reorganize the country.
Shouldn't you contribute to this matter for the mistakes you have made?"
Li Ru was surprised and said: "The general has great ambitions.
This is a very serious and upright feat.
However, Ru's talents can only be used for conspiracy and trickery, and are of no use to what the general wants to do."
"No, no," Liu Cheng shook his head with a smile and said, "To accomplish such a big thing, you must use military, political, and political tactics at the same time.
The tactics of tactics are divided into conspiracy and conspiracy.
Many things must be done Do it openly, but there are some things where you cannot use positive means and can only use conspiracy.
Your advice for Dong Zhuo can bring such great damage to the country of Han Dynasty.
I believe that as long as it is used properly, the effect will not be small."
Li Ru thought for a while and sighed: "Originally, I thought I could assist Dong Zhuo in destroying this decadent and failed dynasty of the Han Dynasty and establishing a new country, but I didn't expect that Dong Zhuo was so disappointing.
Since the general doesn't dislike it, With Li Ru's meager wisdom, Li Ru will be driven by the general for the rest of his life.
I hope the general will not disappoint him.
Ru pays his respects to the general."
"Sir, Mr.
Wen, please rise."
Liu Cheng helped Li Ru up and said: "Now that Dong Zhuo is dead, the court's attitude towards Dong Zhuo's old troops is still unclear.
I don't know how Mr.
Wen Yi thinks he should deal with the generals of the Xiliang Army."
Li Ru thought for a while and held up his hands and said: "It's not that Ru is interceding for Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Niu Fu and others, nor is it that Ru is concerned about his old relationship with these people.
From the overall situation, Ru believes that the court should Safety is the priority.
If the general can make the decision, I hope the general can broaden his horizons, open his mind, and The courage to accept the Xiliang army so that they can be used by the general, otherwise if they are forced into a desperate situation, these people will not be willing to sit back and wait for death.
When the time comes to rebel, the court may not be able to quell this rebellion.
Even if it can be quelled, it will definitely It will take a long time, which is very disadvantageous for the general."
Liu Cheng nodded and said: "Wen You's words have won my heart.
It's a pity that a group of ministers in the court headed by Wang Yun want to hold Li Jue, Guo Si and others accountable for their crimes.
Anyone who has had their hands on the ministers and people in the court The blood of our generals and commanders To deal with it harshly, it is not impossible for my general to veto their ideas and pardon Li Jue, Guo Si and others.
However, in this case, Wang Yun and other noble ministers will definitely hold a grudge.

This general has always wanted to get rid of these people.
In order to prepare for the next step of rectifying the officialdom and clearing out the chaos in the court, this time was a good opportunity to use the hands of Li Jue, Guo Si and others to get rid of Wang Yun and others, and also drove the fierce tiger Lu Bu to Guandong.
But now I still lack someone who can convince Li Jue and Guo Si to work for me and cooperate with this general to implement this plan.
After much thought, I think Mr.
Wen is the most suitable person.
I wonder if you, sir, are willing to take this trip."
Li Ru said: "At this moment, Ru is indeed the most suitable person to go see Li Jue, Guo Si and others.
The general has an order, and Ru should obey it."
"Great Kindness" Liu Cheng smiled, clapped his hands and shouted: "Come here" As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Ji walked in, cupped his hands to Liu Cheng and said, "Meet the General."
Liu Cheng said to Li Ru: "Wen You, this is Zhang Ji.
You must have heard about it.
This time when I go to meet Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Niu Fu and others, you will be the main one.
Zhang Ji will do it for you."
As your deputy and responsible for maintaining contact with this general, he can solve all your needs."
Li Ru immediately raised his hand to Zhang Ji and said, "Excuse me, Mr.
Zhang."
"Don't dare, don't dare.
We are all working for the general.
If you have any needs, sir, just ask me."
Li Ru said to Liu Cheng again: "General, I am going to see Li Jue, Guo Si and others this time.
I don't know how much authority Ru has."
Liu Chengdao: "Wang Yun and others want to settle accounts with Li Jue, Guo Si and others.
They will definitely bring it up at tomorrow's court meeting.
At that time, the general will strongly object and the emperor will delay on the grounds of caution.
Wen You saw Li Jue and Guo Si and others can do this later The bottom line for this general is that we can pardon all their crimes and allow them to continue to retain military power, but all troops must be reorganized and trained.
You can negotiate with Li Jue, Guo Si and others above this bottom line."
After hearing this, Li Ru cupped his hands and said, "Ru understands.
General, please wait patiently for the good news."
"Okay."
Liu Cheng nodded and said to Zhang Ji: "De Rong, take a few people to protect Wen You when he goes out of the city to find Li Jue and Guo Si tomorrow morning.
You must ensure Wen You's safety."
"General, don't worry, we will live up to our orders."
The next day, there was a court meeting.
This was the first court meeting after the execution of Dong Zhuo.
Although it was a small court meeting, the entire Weiyang Palace was packed with people.
All the qualified ministers and officials from the middle and lower court came.
Not missing out, after all, this kind of opportunity is very rare, everyone wants to enjoy the political atmosphere in the court without Dong Zhuo.
"If you have something to do, leave the court, if nothing happens," a eunuch stood up and shouted loudly.
Today's court meeting was a grand occasion, how could it be possible that nothing could happen?
Then the officials of Taichang Temple stood up and said: "Your Majesty, now all the traitor Dong Zhuo's relatives and cronies have been captured.
These people will be liquidated next.
Please tell me how to deal with these people."
At Wang Yun's suggestion, an official came out and said with cupped hands: "Your Majesty, Dong Zhuo is the most evil person, and most of his relatives are people who have done many evil deeds.
The humble minister thought that all these people should be taken to the execution ground and beheaded in public to comfort those people."
The loyal heroes and countless civilians who were killed by them" This matter was not controversial, and most of the courtiers and officials agreed.

After seeing Liu Cheng's reaction, Liu Bian agreed: "Okay, I decree that these people will be taken to the execution ground in three days and be executed.
Ting Wei will be responsible for supervising the execution."
Wei Ting stood up and clasped his fists and said, "I obey the order."
Liu Bian asked again: "What else do you have to report to your family?"
