Liu Feng knelt on the throne, waiting for Dong Cheng and Dong Gai to come in. Liu Feng's expression was a little solemn. Although Dong Kuang planned to rebel, killing him was not an exaggeration. The reason was the same, but the problem was that he was really planning to kill him.
Dong Kuang.
He was always the eldest son of Dong Cheng, and now he had to face Dong Cheng, and Liu Feng didn't know how to face it.
"Da da da." While Liu Feng was waiting, there was a sound of footsteps, and Dong Cheng and Dong Gai walked in from outside. Seeing the old general, Liu Feng felt sad.[
During these days, the old general was probably exhausted mentally and physically. His hair became whiter, there were more wrinkles on his face, and there was deep helplessness in his eyes.
Dong Gai's eyes were also red and swollen, and he was not as high-spirited as before.
"I pay my respects to the general." After Dong Cheng and Dong Gai entered the side hall, they immediately saluted Liu Feng.
"Old general, please rise." Liu Feng quickly got off the throne, came forward and helped Dong Cheng up personally, and said.
"Thank you, General." Dong Cheng thanked him with a flash of gratitude in his eyes. Dong Gai also stood up silently.
"Is the old general here here for your son's business?" Liu Feng asked softly.
"It's unfortunate that the family has a disobedient son. But instead of pursuing the old minister and the Dong family, the general has been so kind to me that the old minister Laizi came to express his gratitude." Hearing this, Dong Cheng bowed deeply to Liu Feng and said gratefully.
Liu Feng was right. For a loyal general like Dong Cheng, he would naturally be angry when a rebellious son in his family plotted a rebellion, but he was also frightened.
Conspiracy was a serious crime that would punish the nine clans. Dong Cheng did not dare to take credit and be arrogant, thinking that he could get some leeway, so he resigned from the post of General of the Hussars and returned home.
However, the general did not blame him, but instead showed his favor. His nephew, the second prince, Liu Fang, was granted the title of King of Xiangyang, and had 5,000 households in Xiangyang. Several of his sons were also granted the title of marquis. Such an honor and favor
, which is the general’s trust and the Dong family’s honor.
Dong Cheng saw clearly that he came with a heart of gratitude, rather than hatred to kill his son. This is the difference between Chen Guang and Dong Cheng.
Chen Guang was about to be executed because his heir Chen Feng killed someone. Instead of reflecting, he hated Liu Feng and planned to join forces with Dong Kuang to abolish Liu Feng and install the second prince Liu Fang.
This is so narrow-minded, it harms others and himself, and eventually he himself dies. Dong Cheng is not such a narrow-minded person.
"Old General, being like this makes Gu Hao feel guilty." Liu Feng sighed deeply when he heard this, and said with a wry smile.
"That disobedient son is just seeking his own death. General, you don't have to be like this." Dong Cheng said quickly after hearing this.
"Alas." Liu Feng shook his head when he heard this and sighed again. He didn't want to say anything more. It would seem hypocritical. From now on, he could just treat the Dong family as before.
Immediately afterwards, Dong Cheng and Liu Feng had a heart-to-heart talk in this side hall, not only about Dong Kuang's matter, but also about the current situation in the world.
"After the capital is moved, a large number of troops must enter Luoyang. Xudu will only leave three battalions of cavalry, Gan Ning, Wenpin, Xu Shu and other 36,000 troops. Although Xudu is no longer the capital, it is still the center of the Central Plains.
The important city will be guarded by the old general and Xu Shu," Liu Feng said.
"Don't worry, General. Unless this old man dies in Chang'an, I will keep my promise." Once he mentioned the current situation, Dong Cheng's expression immediately improved and he became fierce and domineering.[
