Chapter 19 Suspicion

Zhang Lang soaked in the bathtub and closed his eyes to rest. Yan Yuyao and the sisters massaged him carefully. Zhang Lang felt so comfortable that he fell asleep. Compared with the previous iron-blooded battles where he stayed up day and night, he felt like he was in heaven at this moment.

generally.

Coming out of the bathroom, a maid came to report that the generals were waiting in the hall.

Zhang Lang walked into the hall from the side door wearing loose and comfortable casual clothes. When the generals saw Zhang Lang, they couldn't help but cheer up, and they all clasped their fists in salute: "General!"

Zhang Lang walked up to the top and sat down. He glanced at the generals and said with a smile, "I feel relieved to see that everyone is fine." The generals smiled. Zhang Lang asked Zang Ba, who was standing behind Zhang Liao, "Zang Ba."

Ba, what are the casualties of our army?" Zang Ba stepped out and clasped his fists and said: "Reporting to the general, the Huru cavalry did not cause heavy losses to our army, and the number of casualties was only two thousand!" Zhang Lang nodded and looked at Hao Meng.

"How are the conditions of those people?" Hao Meng immediately replied: "There are more than 80,000 people who follow us, and more than 60,000 people go to Chang'an!" Zhang Lang couldn't help feeling sad and sighed, "They all

Have you settled down?" "General, don't worry, there are a lot of open spaces in Chang'an City, and they are all arranged in the city, concentrated in Xicheng District." Zhang Lang nodded and said to the generals: "That's it for today, everyone go back.

"Wen Yuan, you have followed me for thousands of miles these days and have a good rest!" "Yes!" Zhang Liao promised with clasped fists.

Not long after the generals left, a guard rushed up to the hall, knelt down and said: "General, the prime minister is here."

Zhang Lang squinted his eyes and muttered: "What is that fat guy doing here?" He stood up and went out to greet him. Before he could reach the gate, Dong Zhuo came in with his body like a mountain of meat surrounded by people.

Zhang Lang shouted enthusiastically: "Father my son, I miss you so much as a father!" Zhang Lang suddenly got goosebumps all over his body.

Welcoming Dong Zhuo into the lobby, he asked him to take a seat and bowed according to the etiquette of this era. Then Zhang Lang and Li Ru stood on the left and right sides.

Li Rudao: "Seeing that Fengxian is fine, Enxiang can feel relieved! Fengxian may not know something. During this time, Enxiang has been worried about Fengxian's safety!"

Zhang Lang raised his fist towards Dong Zhuo and said, "Thank you, Prime Minister, for your concern!"

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly, "My son is fine, I am relieved as a father!" Then he said angrily: "But Fengxian, you are so ridiculous! You actually took risks for those untouchables! It's so inappropriate! Besides, because of you

He left his post without permission, causing Cao Cao and other rats to chase him all the way. Fortunately, Li Ru had the foresight to order Xu Rong to ambush behind, so there was no loss!"

Zhang Lang apologized dryly and said: "Please Prime Minister punish me for my sins!"

Dong Zhuo waved his hand magnanimously, "That's all! Forget it! You must remember your father's grace!"

"Never dare to forget!"

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly and looked around, "Where is my daughter-in-law?" When he asked this question, his plump face actually showed a beautiful and squinting look. Zhang Lang's heart skipped a beat and he cursed secretly: "You damn thing?"

Fat pig, are you plotting against my wife? As soon as I thought about this, I couldn't help but raise my vigilance, and said lukewarmly: "Yu Yao is still taking a nap."

Dong Zhuo showed disappointment.

Li Ru smiled and said to Zhang Lang: "Congratulations to Fengxian! The day before yesterday, Enxiang recommended Fengxian to your majesty as Wenhou!" Wenhou refers to the marquis who takes Wen County as his fiefdom, and belongs to the county marquis. In the Han Dynasty, marquises were divided into

There are three levels: county, township and pavilion. The county marquis is the highest level marquis, and the pavilion marquis is the lowest level. For example, Cao Cao granted Guan Yu the title of Han Shouting marquis.

Zhang Lang cupped his fist towards Dong Zhuo and said, "Thank you so much, Prime Minister!"

Dong Zhuo warned: "My father is really kind to you! You must keep it in your heart! Don't forget it for a moment!"

"Keep the final decision firmly in your heart!"

Dong Zhuo laughed heartily.

Li Rudao: "Fengxian worked hard all the way and rested for a while in Chang'an before going to Yunzhong County to take up his post."

Zhang Lang was surprised, "I'm going to take office in Yunzhong County?"

Li Ru quickly explained: "That's it. In view of the threat from the Northern invaders, Enxiang ordered Fengxian to be the prefect of Yunzhong County to prevent the Northern invaders! Fengxian's subordinates are still under the command of Fengxian, and all money and food expenditures are by

Enxiang provides it! What do you think?"

Zhang Lang pondered for a moment. Although he didn't quite understand the other party's plan, he vaguely felt that the other party seemed eager to exclude him from Chang'an. He cupped his fists towards Dong Zhuo and said: "It is an honor for the general to share the worries of the prime minister!" After a pause, "

However, the defense of northern Xinjiang is not something that Yunzhong County alone can undertake. I need the right to command the entire Bingzhou army!" Zhang Lang was asking for a price.

Dong Zhuo didn't feel much about Zhang Lang's conditions, but Li Ru's heart skipped a beat and thought to himself: Okay! Aren't you going to take the entire Bingzhou state?

After hesitating for a moment, he felt that it was inconvenient to hand over the entire Bingzhou to Zhang Lang, but he could not veto Zhang Lang's request, so he thought of a compromise. Li Ru said with a troubled face: "It would be great if Fengxian could take charge of Bingzhou.

No! It’s just that there are many bureaucrats in Bingzhou who are dissatisfied with the Prime Minister. For example, the governors of Xihe County and Taiyuan County are former disciples of the Yuan family. They have always been at odds with the Prime Minister. During the previous rebellions of the Eastern princes, many unruly acts were committed! Furthermore,

The appointment and dismissal of a state pastor needs to be reported to His Majesty! Please wait for a moment."

Zhang Lang nodded, cupped his fists towards Dong Zhuo and said, "It all depends on the prime minister's arrangement."

Dong Zhuo laughed heartily. "Fengxian, tonight I will hold a banquet in my mansion to entertain the important officials of the imperial court. You must remember to come." "Yes!" Zhang Lang promised with fists clasped.

Dong Zhuo said: "I'm going back home." He stood up and Li Ru hurriedly stepped forward to help him. Dong Zhuo stood up with Li Ru's help. Zhang Lang sent Dong Zhuo out of the gate and watched Dong Zhuo drive away.

Then he returned to the mansion.

On the carriage, Dong Zhuo asked Li Ru in confusion: "Li Ru, what did you do just now?"

Li Ru hurriedly explained: "Grace and tolerance."

"Say it." Dong Zhuo said angrily.

Li Ru said: "Bingzhou has a vast territory and rich resources, and it is close to Chang'an. If Fengxian has other ideas, Chang'an will be in danger!" Dong Zhuo couldn't help but worry, frowned and said in embarrassment: "What should we do? Don't we agree to Fengxian's conditions?

?That's not good?"

"Enxiang misunderstood! What I mean is that Feng Fengxian was appointed as General Zuo, and he left Zhenbei to take charge of the military affairs of Bingzhou! In this way, although his status is higher, it is difficult to truly control Bingzhou! In addition, Enxiang can still

He appointed Yuan Shao as the governor of Bingzhou as a check, but it can only be said to appease the eastern princes. In this way, Mr. Feng can be prevented from having any wrong ideas, and Yuan Shao can be restrained first! Enxiang can sit back and relax.

Got it!"
