Chapter 312 Dong Zhuo: Lingqi, do you agree to marry Hua Xiong? What do you think of this marriage?(1/2)
"...Grand Master, the marriage between General Hua and General Lu's daughter is somewhat inappropriate.
General Lu is not very satisfied with this marriage and seems to want to dissolve it. I wonder what Grand Master’s wishes are?”
Wang Yun stood in front of Dong Zhuo, and after reporting some other matters, he looked at Dong Zhuo and talked about this matter.
Dong Zhuo heard this and sat up straight.
"Then...according to Situ's wishes, what should be done about this matter?"
Dong Zhuo, who was getting fatter and fatter, looked at Wang Yun and asked.
Wang Yun hesitated for a moment and said: "According to what I have seen, this marriage was decided by the Grand Master. Since when the engagement was made, General Lu agreed to it without saying much, and it was already Zhao Zhao's.
Tell the world, it would be inappropriate to break off the engagement at this time.
Moreover, if you really want to break off the engagement, you should wait until General Zhengnan returns to Chang'an with his troops before raising the matter.
At this time, General Zhengnan is out with his troops, hunting down thieves for the country, and is serving the country. If he withdraws from the engagement at this time, I am afraid that it will not be good for the grand master and the great Han..."
When facing Lu Bu, Wang Yun spoke well. After coming to Dong Zhuo, he sold Lu Bu outright.
Although the words he said did not say anything explicitly, they contained a lot of meaning.
It's more effective than saying it explicitly.
Hearing this, Dong Zhuo nodded: "What Situ said is a mature and prudent statement.
I already know about this matter, and I will personally ask my son Feng to come over first and talk to him about this matter in detail..."
Having said that, I won’t talk about this matter anymore.
And Wang Yun didn't say much on this matter.
It seems that this matter has stopped like this and is over.
After saying some more things, Wang Yun left Dong Zhuo.
After completely leaving Dong Zhuo's place, Wang Yun couldn't help but smile.
Things are going well!
…
"Snapped!"
After Wang Yun left, Dong Zhuo picked up the fruit plate beside him and threw it to the ground, smashing it to pieces.
The fruits inside were rolling around on the ground!
Li Ru happened to have something to tell Dong Zhuo, and as soon as he walked to the door, he saw such a scene.
He lowered his head and looked at the fruit rolling down at his feet. He immediately retracted his head and started to leave quietly, waiting for a while before coming back.
"Get in!"
Dong Zhuo's voice sounded with some anger.
Li Ru paused, sighed secretly, cursed the person who angered his father-in-law, and carefully walked into the room.
"Father-in-law, who is so bold and makes you so angry? Is it Prince Wang Yun?"
Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo and spoke a little cautiously.
When he came over, he saw Wang Yun leaving Dong Zhuo's house from a distance.
Dong Zhuo shook his head: "It's not Wang Yun. Wang Yun came here this time and got a batch of money and food."
"Then...are they those ignorant scholars?"
Dong Zhuo shook his head again: "No."
Li Ru couldn't figure out for a moment who provoked Dong Zhuo.
"It's Lu Bu!"
Dong Zhuo said angrily.
Then he told Li Ru that Wang Yun was entrusted by Lu Bu and came to intercede for Lu Bu.
"Wenyou, do you think this is irritating or not?!
I made this engagement, and he agreed to it at the time.
Now everyone knows it!
He had come to me personally to talk about this matter before. I broke it into pieces and explained to him the power of it in detail, and even promoted him to a noble title.
As a result, he is still not satisfied!
I actually found Wang Yun's head and asked an outsider like Wang Yun to talk to me about this matter.
This damn bastard thing, what does he think?!"
At the end of Dong Zhuo's speech, he became more and more excited. He mentioned Lu Bu's name and cursed loudly.
When Li Ru heard this, he couldn't help but frown secretly.
He understood why Dong Zhuo was so angry.
This series of actions by Lu Bu were indeed a bit too much.
There are really too many things revealed here.
There are too many things to be angry about.
There were several places where I hurt my father-in-law’s face.
"Then what are you going to do, father-in-law?
Fengxian is also a general under his father-in-law, so he cannot be forced too far.
Especially now that Gong Wei is far away fighting in Yizhou, we can't force him too hard."
Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo and reminded him, calming down Dong Zhuo and telling him not to act out of anger.
Dong Zhuo took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly to show that he understood.
After a moment like this, Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru and said, "What do you think of Lu Bu? How come he doesn't like such a good marriage?"
When Li Ru heard this, he hesitated to speak. He also wanted to ask Dong Zhuo what he thought.
Why do you look down on such a good person like Hua Xiong and such a good marriage and are unwilling to marry Dong Bai to Hua Xiong?
"Father-in-law, since Fengxian is so resistant to this marriage, it would be better if my father-in-law just complies with Fengxian's wishes and annuls it..."
Dong Zhuo shook his head: "I think Gongwei is quite fond of Lingqi. Now that Gongwei is leading troops to fight outside, if his engagement is terminated at this time, it will inevitably make him have some thoughts that he shouldn't have.
This matter still needs to be figured out slowly."
When Li Ru heard this, he couldn't help grinning secretly. His father-in-law was really good at talking.
It seems that Hua Xiong has not met Lu Lingqi until now, so how can he agree with her?
"I'm not afraid of this. When the engagement is terminated, my father-in-law can betroth Wenxue to Gongwei.
Wenxue surpassed Lu Bu's daughter in both appearance and status. With such a good match, Gongwei would never have any dissatisfaction with his father-in-law.
Since then, he has not only complied with Fengxian's wishes, but also been able to bind Gongwei firmly to his father-in-law and become a family.
No need to worry about Gongwei’s different intentions anymore…”
Li Ru once again told the story about the engagement.
But Dong Zhuo, who just now was saying that it would be a good marriage for Lu Bu's daughter to marry Hua Xiong, once again shook his head and rejected it outright.
"No, they are not suitable."
Li Ru curled his lips secretly.
He didn't know the word double standard. If he had known it, he would have used it on Dong Zhuo at this time.
…
"Madam, this time, things are settled. Our daughter's engagement with Hua Xiong will definitely be terminated!"
Lu Bu returned home and looked at his wife Yan, looking excited.
Yan said: "Husband, can it really happen this time?"
Lu Bu was so irritated by Yan's tone that he couldn't stand it. He felt that he was very embarrassed in front of his wife regarding this matter.
“It can definitely happen!”
He said decisively.
"This time, Mr. Situ spoke in person and talked about this matter.
Situ Gong had great reputation with Dong Zhuo.
If he talks about it in person, there will be absolutely no problem!"
Yan nodded, expressing his belief.
But he still looked a little unconvinced.
