When Dong Zhuo heard this, he couldn't help but nodded repeatedly.

He smiled and said, "This Ding Ziyang is a strong man."

"But all this changed because Cao Cao failed to assassinate and fled Luoyang alone.

Ding Chen hated Cao Cao to the core because Cao Cao ignored his sister's life and death. In fact, he never cared about the government, and even did not care about who was in charge of the court. According to Jia Qu, who guarded Cao's mansion, after Ding Chen returned home, in addition to teaching Cao Cao's son Cao Ang to practice martial arts, he almost spoke with his sister, and his attitude was very respectful.

This time he guarded Hucheng Pavilion, which was arranged by Hua Xiong at will, and had not discussed with anyone before.

Therefore, before Cao Cao came to Hucheng Pavilion, he didn't even know where Ding Chen was. After Ding Chen met Cao Cao, he persuaded Cao Cao to withdraw from the rebels but failed. He angrily cut off his robe and made a decision with him... To sum up, Confucian thought that Ding Chen had no problem."

Dong Zhuo listened carefully and nodded from time to time to express his approval of Li Ru's words.

After Li Ru finished speaking, he smiled slightly and said, "Wenyou, seem to value this person very much?"

"At the beginning, Ru paid attention to him because Wen Hou recommended him.

However, at that time, Ru thought he was from Wen Hou, so he was only responsible for secret observation, but never had any contact with him.

Later, Ru found out that he seemed not under Wen Hou and his identity was quite embarrassing.

Hehe, the Prime Minister knows that Ru Jin is the General of the Central Army, but there are not many people around him who can do things, so...

Besides, if Ding Chen is not under the command of Marquis Wen, why not recruit him?

Our Liangzhou army has been at a disadvantage since Lu Bu surrendered. If Ding Chen had followed our Liangzhou army, he would have shocked the morale of our Liangzhou army... Prime Minister, Ru's move is absolutely selfless, but he just doesn't want our Liangzhou army to be suppressed by the Bingzhou army."

There was a conflict between the Liangzhou Army and the Bingzhou Army, so Dong Zhuo certainly knew it.

However, he did not stop it, nor did he get involved.

In his opinion, the Liangzhou Army and the Bingzhou Army fighting each other are actually beneficial and are more conducive to his control.

However, Dong Zhuo started in Liangzhou after all, and the Liangzhou army was the team he started. From the bottom of his heart, he hoped that the Liangzhou army could defeat the Bingzhou army. In this way, he would be more face-saving and also facilitated him to beat Lu Bu.

“Wenyou, you can send people to contact us.

But remember, if you win over you, you can't hurt your kindness because of this. You are my right-hand man. If you really make a fuss, I will only deal with it impartially. However, if Ding Chen can surrender to you, it will be a good thing for the Liangzhou army."

"Confucianism, understand."

Li Ru knew that when it comes to this, this topic can actually end.

Sure enough, Dong Zhuo changed his tone and said in a deep voice: "Yesterday, Wang Situ and Zheng Gongye advised me that the rebel army was powerful and asked me to avoid the edge for the time being and proposed to move the capital. I was also very hesitant about this. I wonder if you have any opinions?"

Move the capital?

Li Ru was excited and bowed quickly and said, "Ru is about to talk to the prime minister."

"Um?"

“Two days ago, Ru heard a nursery rhyme on the street.

There is a Han in the east and a Han in the west. It is impossible for the deer to enter Chang'an... After hearing this, Confucian immediately sent someone to investigate, but he did not find the source. Later, Confucian thought about it carefully and felt that this nursery rhyme had some truth."

"How do you say this?"

"The Han in the west is supposed to be the Han Dynasty. I think it means that Emperor Gaozu took over Guanzhong and prospered in Chang'an; the Han in the east is undoubtedly referring to Emperor Guangwu's revival and Luoyang. Thinking about the time when Emperor Gaozu was in Chang'an, it was two hundred years since Emperor Gaozu was in Chang'an. It was exactly two hundred years since Emperor Guangwu was in Luoyang. When the Han Dynasty was in Chang'an, Wang Mang usurped power. Guangwu rose in Luoyang, and it is still in the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the Ten Constant Instructors' rebellion. This undoubtedly shows that the fortune of the country has shifted from Luoyang to Chang'an.

The Prime Minister supports the new emperor and is in trouble. He should follow the times and protect His Majesty's capital to Chang'an and stay in Guanzhong...

The ancients said that those who win Guanzhong will win the world.

After the Prime Minister moved the capital to Chang'an, he was connected to Liangzhou in the west, and was the place where the Prime Minister started his family; he was connected to Bashu in the south, and became the country of Tianfu. At that time, the Prime Minister could become a natural barrier and order the princes. At that time, the restoration of the Han Dynasty must be just around the corner."

Dong Zhuo listened very seriously. After a while, he raised his head, looked at Li Ru, and looked up and down for a long time.

The sharp eyes were like an eagle and falcon, which made Li Ru shudder.

He didn't dare to speak anymore, but stood with his hands down.

After a long time, Dong Zhuo said, "What Wenyou said today is out of your mouth and into my ears. Do not know it by a third person.

This matter is of great importance, so let me think twice.

You send someone to Xingyang and pass on my orders.

Ding Ziyang has a great spirit and elegant temperament, and should be valued by the world. This time, he guarded Hucheng Pavilion, destroyed the rebels' tricks, destroyed their relatives for justice, and defeated Cao Cao three times. However, when he retreated, he was defeated by Cao Cao and suffered heavy losses, so he must be punished.

Although Your Majesty is young, he is naturally intelligent and said: If you have merits, you should reward merits. If you have any mistakes, merits and demerits will not be offset. Medals are merits, and mistakes are merits. Therefore, I was appointed as the commander of Ding Chen, and rewarded hundreds of gold, and a thousand pieces of brocade and silk. I will pay my salary for half a year, and I will be responsible for making meritorious contributions."

When Li Ru heard this, he felt happy.

He knew that Dong Zhuo asked him to pass this order, but in fact he handed over the opportunity to win over Ding Chen.

Xingyang, outside the Yangren Pass.

The coalition camp stretched for more than ten miles, and from a distance, the flags were waving and the momentum was amazing.

Sun Jian sat upright in the military treasure tent in the camp, his face gloomy.

"It's unfair!"

He was a little depressed, and his words were filled with anger.

"Although Meng De occupied Hucheng Pavilion, he lost three battles and three times. Not only did he fail to achieve the surprise attack, but he lost his troops and generals, which alarmed Lu Bu. My son won the first battle and even took Hu Zhen's head. Why was Meng De rewarded? No one mentioned my son?

Yuan Benchu’s rewards and punishments are unknown, and his family is dissatisfied!"

In the big tent, there were Sun Jian’s confidants.

Hearing that he complained so much, he couldn't help but feel indignant.

Sun Ce sat down at Sun Jian, looking even more unhappy.

He killed Hu Zhen, and although he later fell into the trap of Hua Xiong and was defeated by Yang Ren Pass, he did not hide his merits.

Now, Cao Cao just took over a remote Hucheng Pavilion, but was praised by the princes.

His father and son fought in Yangren Pass for many days, and even no one came to reward the army, let alone Yuan Shu and Yuan Highway sent people to urge Sun Jian to break through Yangren Pass as soon as possible. This also doubled the pressure on Sun Jian's shoulders.

"Wentai, since the leader of the alliance cannot treat it impartially, why don't we retreat?"

Sun Jian frowned, hesitated for a moment, sighed and said, "It's too late to withdraw the troops at this time.
