Yuan Wei put down the book, his slender eyebrows suddenly knitted, and his eyes flashed fiercely: "What? The assassination failed? Could it be that Dong Zhuo was secretly protecting Li Ru?"
"That's right."
Yuan Ji took a deep breath and exhaled slowly: "It must be Dong Zhuo's people, and there are more than one, otherwise Hu Zhen's troops would not have come so fast."
Phew~~~
Yuan Wei let out a long breath: "I had expected that Dong Zhuo would send people to monitor Li Ru, but I didn't expect that he would also send people to secretly protect an outsider. It seems that Dong Zhuo pays more attention to Li Ru than I thought."
"uncle."
Yuan Ji bowed his head and said softly: "I'm afraid, Dong Zhuo will really regard Li Ru as his confidant. If this person truly surrenders to Dong Zhuo, he will be a big threat to us."
"kindness."
Yuan Wei nodded, pondered for a long time, and finally made a decision: "It seems that what we have planned must be implemented as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams."
Li Ru is a wise man.
On this point, Yuan Wei and Yuan Ji have reached a consensus.
Otherwise, they would not risk exposure to win over Li Ru.
Now that Li Ru is completely loyal to Dong Zhuo, some additional factors must be considered in Dong Zhuo's plan.
If it can be implemented as soon as possible, it must be implemented quickly.
Otherwise, once the people in the Taiwei Mansion reveal their flaws, they may even affect the Yuan family themselves.
This is something Yuan Wei absolutely does not want to see.
"uncle."
Yuan Ji asked anxiously: "What should we do?"
Yuan Wei took a deep breath and considered all the factors clearly in his mind: "Shiji, be prepared. As soon as the matter in Luoyang is resolved, leave immediately. The highway has always been incompatible. Without you, it will be difficult to control it."
them."
"Uncle, what about you? Do you want to continue to stay in Luoyang?"
"There must be someone in Luoyang who can do it. I'm here and I can attract Dong Zhuo's attention."
"But uncle..."
"Nothing but."
Before Yuan Ji could finish speaking, Yuan Wei interrupted directly: "Whether our Yuan family can completely turn over, and whether the scholars can completely turn around, all depends on this time. There is absolutely no room for any mistakes, do you understand?"
Phew~~~
Yuan Ji frowned and sighed helplessly: "My nephew understands."
Yuan Wei picked up the scroll and waved his hand: "Go ahead and do what you should be busy with."
Yuan Ji bowed his head: "Here."

gold market.
Shi Zixuan's practice is over.
Dong Zhuo was riding in a car and was about to leave.
suddenly.
General Hu Zhen hurried over, bowed and cupped his hands and said, "My lord, Li Ru has been assassinated."
When Dong Zhuo heard this, he straightened up suddenly, his eyes as wide as bells: "Oh? Wen You was assassinated?"
Hu Zhen nodded with guilt on his face: "Well, just an hour ago, Wen You was assassinated in Helv Lane, not far from Nanshi. Fortunately, Wen You's life was not in danger."
"kindness."
Dong Zhuo nodded.
He naturally knew that Li Ru's life could not be in danger.
He arranged expert protection around him, how could he not be able to deal with a few assassins?
At this time, Dong Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief and grinned.
Not only was he not angry, he even had a hint of joy.
This scene really made Hu Zhen a little confused: "Captain, what are you..."
Only then did Dong Zhuo realize that he had behaved inappropriately and hurriedly changed his words: "Oh, you quickly send someone to investigate the truth about the assassination and investigate all the people and things that Wen You came into contact with."
Hu Zhen leaned over and handed over his hand: "Don't worry, Lieutenant Commander, the general has been searching secretly, and sent someone to inform Lieutenant Ting, asking him to assist in the investigation. We must find the real culprit."
"good."
Dong Zhuo nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand: "Please step aside for now and wait until there is a result on this matter before reporting it."
Hu Zhen cupped his hands and said, "Here."
Dong Zhuo waved fiercely: "Go back home."
Drive~~~
The carriage drove leisurely away from the gold market.
Since Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, he went on a killing spree, knowing that he had committed serious crimes.
He never trusted anyone except Yongliang, especially those scholars.
He was not even willing to win over scholars unless he had to.
His idea is simple.
Almost all the generals in Xiliang were assassinated.
If a person has not been assassinated, he is not worthy of being one of our own.
Especially an outsider like Li Ru.
But it's fine now.
Even people like Li Ru were assassinated.
Wouldn't that prove that the scholars had completely given up on him, and that he could just accept him.
Dong Zhuo returned to his mansion.
The screen went away for the first time.
He sat upright and exhaled:
"You can come out now."
In the darkness, a man flashed out:
"Lord~~~"
Dong Zhuo raised his eyes and looked at the other party:
"Tell me carefully."
The man raised his head and reported the assassination in detail.
Hiss~~~
Dong Zhuo couldn't help but gasped: "Wang Yun? He actually got involved? There is really no good scholar. He always wants to go against me. No matter how good I am to him, it will be the same."
"Lord."
The man hurriedly said: "It may not have been arranged by Wang Yun. According to the information obtained by the villain, after Wang Yun and Li Ru separated, they went straight back to the mansion and did not come into contact with anyone else during this period.
Moreover, this assassination was obviously planned for a long time. If Wang Yun was the mastermind behind it, I am afraid it would not have been so thorough. The other party was obviously well prepared and was specifically targeting Li Ru."
"oh?"
Dong Zhuo was surprised: "If it's not Wang Yun, who could it be?"
The man shook his head and was equally confused: "My lord, you can call Li Ru over and ask. This man is very resourceful and there must be someone to suspect. He may be helpful in finding out the real murderer."
Dong Zhuo nodded, feeling moved.
"Report~~~"
Just at this moment, a long announcement sounded outside the hall.
Dong Zhuo shouted: "Come in."
Squeak~~~
When the palace door opened, the man had disappeared.
The person who came in next was the general Hu Zhen.
But Hu Zhen looked panicked, as if something had happened.
He cupped his fists and cupped his hands, and knelt on one knee: "Lieutenant, something serious has happened."
Dong Zhuo frowned: "What happened again?"
Hu Zhen gritted his teeth and told the truth: "The general was going to look for Wenyou and ask for more details, but when he arrived at his house, he found that his entire family had been killed, and no one was spared."
"What?"
Dong Zhuo stood up with a look of disbelief on his face: "Wen You's whole family was killed?"
Hu Zhenen nodded: "Yes, not a single one is left. His twelve-year-old son was also killed."
Hiss~~~
Dong Zhuo couldn't help but gasped and became furious: "Damn it! Under my nose, Dong Zhuo, you actually dare to do such a rebellious act. I, Dong Zhuo, will never give up until the truth comes to light."
Arrogant!
It's simply too arrogant!
It is tolerable, but it is unbearable to be mature.
"Hu Zhen!"
"The end will be here."
"Please investigate Wang Yun quickly."
"Wang Yun?"
"Yes." Dong Zhuo nodded, "Wen You had contact with Wang Yun before the accident. Regardless of whether Wang Yun is the real murderer or not, we must strictly investigate and make sure there are no mistakes."
"Here."
Immediately.
Dong Zhuo bypassed the long case in front of him and went straight to the palace gate: "Send the order, prepare the car, I want to visit Wenyou's house."
