The big man knelt down and worshiped like a jade pillar from a golden mountain: "My old friend Dong Zhuo, I pay my respects to Mr. Yuan."
"Dong Zhuo... it is indeed him! The most powerful hero in the Three Kingdoms, Dong Zhuo, who is ranked among the top ten traitors in ancient times and has been infamy for thousands of years!" Gai Jun was shocked. However, Dong Zhuo's words caught his attention. An old friend was the name of an old official. So
So, Dong Zhuo was an old official of Yuan Wei? No wonder Yuan Shao later recruited him to the capital. Unfortunately, Yuan Shao did not expect that this old official of the Yuan family would become his guest.
The reason why the clans in the Han Dynasty endured for a long time was because they formed a huge and complex network of relationships headed by disciples and old officials. The relationship between them ranged from serving the master to being dependent on each other for life and death, and even mourning for the old master after his death.
There are also those who have three years of experience, which can be said to be stronger and more reliable than the relationship between monarch and minister. As an old official, Dong Zhuo dared to kill the old master's family. Since the Han Dynasty, Dong Zhuo was definitely a scorpion - a poisonous person. This kind of person cannot
There is no justice in being left in stench for thousands of years.
"Zhong Ying, get up quickly." Yuan Wei looked at Dong Zhuo, whose beard was turning white, and said with emotion: "We haven't seen you for six years, Zhong Ying looks quite old! Is the wind and sand in the Western Regions so hurtful?"
Dong Zhuo stood up and said passionately: "Zhuo is less than fifty, how can he say he is old? I can still serve the great man for another twenty years." After saying this, he glanced at the third man in the room, Gai Jun, with a thoughtful expression.
The way of thinking.
"What a great Zhongying!" Yuan Wei said with a smile: "This boy is also from Liangzhou. Guess who he is, Zhongying."
Dong Zhuo opened his mouth and said: "The person who is dissatisfied with the weak crown and is invited by Yuan Gong must be the hero who shoots tigers and destroys locusts. Is your guess correct?"
Yuan Wei nodded with a smile.
Dong Zhuo apologized for his smile, but there was a hint of bitterness in his smile that no one could detect. He was born in an ordinary family. He became a local official with Qiang Luan in his thirties, climbed two thousand stones in his forties, and is now nearly five years old.
In ten days, he lost his official position and fled to the capital in embarrassment. The sadness of it is not enough to be appreciated by outsiders. Looking at the other party, he was born in a wealthy family. He was already a marquis at a young age. His reputation is world-famous, and he is valued by the Yuan family, the largest family in the capital.
It can be imagined that its future is bright.
Gai Jun stood up and bowed his head and said: "Dong Jun. I met Mr. Dong in front of Mr. Huangfu's tomb when I was young. I don't think Mr. Dong remembers it."
"Oh? I see." After all, Dong Zhuo had been an official for many years, and he quickly adjusted his mentality. Then, at the invitation of Yuan Wei, he entered the seat not far from Gai Jun and said, "Lang Jun is very famous, and even if you are a servant,
I have heard about it even outside the region. Liangzhou has always been desolate, so it is a great blessing for me to have a talent like Lang Jun come out of Liangzhou."
Gai Jun leaned forward slightly and said, "Dong Jun is a senior fellow from Jun, just call me Ziying."
Dong Zhuo nodded, and Yuan Wei sighed over there: "I remember that Zhongying entered our palace on the recommendation of the emperor." Seven years ago, Yuan Wei ascended the position of Situ and completed the unprecedented great achievements of the Yuan family, namely the fourth generation and the third Duke.
For four consecutive generations, he held the post of Three Dukes. At that time, Jiong was the Sili Xiaowei. Because he had always been on good terms with the Yuan family, he recommended Dong Zhuo, a subordinate from his hometown, to join the Yuan Kai shogunate.
Dong Zhuo shook his head and said with a sad expression: "Duan Gong is unjust... Duan Gong served the country all his life, and his military exploits were outstanding, comparable to those of the sages. In the end, he died at the hands of a villain like Yang Qiu. All the soldiers of the Han Dynasty cried bitterly.
Crying, it's like losing a parent. Not only did Yang Qiu kill Mr. Duan, he also made his family helpless. Zhuo Chang hated himself for being useless and unable to reverse Mr. Duan's case!"
Yuan Wei deeply hated Yang Qiu and said: "Yang Qiu's death is not far away! When he dies, his name will be revealed."
Dong Zhuo said: "What Mr. Yuan said is true."
"Is Zhong Ying's trip to Beijing an act of disgrace?"
"That's exactly why!" Dong Zhuo said angrily: "Those officials in the capital don't understand the current situation in the Western Regions at all. They say that I am murderous, which makes people laugh to death! I say that they are short-sighted and do not use thunderbolt methods. How can they deter the Western Regions?
Countries?"
"Oh?" Yuan Wei said, "Zhong Ying has been in the Western Regions for a long time and came to speak for me."
"In the first year of Jianning (168), King Shule and the Han Dynasty Captain [Chen Pan] shot his father [Hede] during a hunt, and [Hede] established himself as king. Shule was a powerful country in the Western Regions.
, [Hede] was very ambitious, and after he came to the throne, he conquered everywhere, and he had great ambitions to unify the Western Regions."
"In the third year of Jianning, Meng Tuo, the governor of Liangzhou, together with Sima Cao Kuan of Wuji, and Zhang Yan, the chief historian of the Western Regions, together with Yanqi, Qiuci, and the Che Division, combined more than 30,000 people to conquer Shule, and even attacked the capital Zhenzhongcheng forty
For the rest of the day, I couldn't go down, so I had to lead him away. [Hede] felt that the court could do nothing to him, so he led troops to retaliate against the neighboring countries who helped me, the Han Dynasty. However, the court could not stop him, which caused the countries to gradually become alienated.
The most severe situation after the three-way connection with the Western Regions."
"I am not boasting. I arrived in the Western Regions within three years. Although there were many killings during this period, I made several countries return to their homes. Shule was no longer as arrogant as before. It can be said that my actions made the Han Dynasty conquer the Western Regions."
His embarrassing status has changed." Dong Zhuo then said angrily: "Mr. Yuan! Tell me! Am I, Dong, a meritorious official or a guilty official? Should I be promoted or should I lose my official position?"
Yuan Wei and Gai Jun both came to persuade him.
Dong Zhuo said sadly: "It's not that I care about power, but that I regret that the situation in the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty will become the same as before."
"Zhongying, with your talent, you are not afraid of being unable to recover."
Dong Zhuo raised his head and sighed, so what? Several years of hard work were ruined in one day, which hurts me!
Yuan Wei said: "Since returning from the battle with Xianbei the year before last, Xianbei has continued to invade and harass the border areas, making the soldiers of the imperial court exhausted and the people suffering, especially You, Bing."
"The foreign troubles in Bingzhou have not been resolved, and the internal troubles have arisen again. The Xiongnu Chanyu [Tu Teruo's Corpse Expulsion] once accompanied Zang Zhonglang in the expedition to Xianbei, and returned seriously injured. He died of illness at the end of last year. His son [Luan Ti Huzheng] resented the imperial court and caused
After his father died tragically, he was extremely hostile to the court after the Shan Yu came to the throne, and showed signs of independence. Zhang Xiu, the general who protected the Xiongnu, was afraid that he would rebel, so he beheaded him without permission, and appointed King Youxian [Qiang Qu] as the Shan Yu.
The relationship between the two countries has undoubtedly worsened, and although the court tried its best to make amends, it was still unable to recover."
"There is currently a vacancy for the position of governor of Bingzhou. You once served in Yanmen and are quite familiar with the local area. Is Zhong Ying interested?"
Dong Zhuo's eyes flickered and he lowered his head to think. He had served as the magistrate of Guangwu County in Yanmen for several years and had a solid foundation. If he became the governor of Bingzhou, he would be able to do a lot. He said: "Since Mr. Yuan has spoken, Zhuo does not dare to shirk the responsibility."
"Zhong Ying fought against Qiang and Hu several times, and fought hundreds of battles before and after. If we merge the states, we will definitely alleviate internal and external troubles."
"By the auspicious words of Mr. Yuan, I don't dare to sacrifice my life."
Seeing this, Gai Jun was left with endless emotion. Yuan Wei never dreamed that Dong Zhuo, whom he single-handedly promoted, would wipe out his entire family more than ten years later.
Yuan Wei laughed and said: "Now that the secular affairs are over, why don't Zhong Ying calm down and enjoy Gai Ying's Divine Comedy?"
"That's what I wish for! I've heard that Gai is good at both English and martial arts, especially the piano. Even Cai Yilang praised him greatly."
Yuan Wei said: "Zhong Ying may not know that Ziying is about to become Cai Bojie's son-in-law."
Dong Zhuo looked at Gai Jun in shock, this man would really make people angry when he compares himself to others.);.
