Dong Hong, the permanent attendant, immediately walked to the front of the hall, and read aloud at the top of his voice: "By heaven, the emperor ordered: Situ Wang Yun was appointed as the Grand Master, to lead the state affairs, regent and assist the government; General. Qin this"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, I have received the decree." Wang Yun and Lu Bu said loudly immediately.

Then Lu Bu went to the front of the hall to receive the imperial edict.At this moment, Lu Bu's gloomy expression due to Diao Chan's drowning finally showed an obvious change. There was obvious excitement between his brows and joy in his eyes.

Marquis of Loyalty, General Fenwei, this is the highest official position compared to Sangong, equivalent to the great general of the imperial court, an extremely personable minister, one person under ten thousand.More importantly, this is an official position conferred by the Son of Heaven. It is dignified and justifiable, and it is far more convincing than the position of Great General bestowed by Dong Zhuo.

He spent half his life chasing fame and fortune, and now he got what he wanted, how could Lu Bu not like it?

However, besides being overjoyed, Lu Bu couldn't help but feel regret flashing across his eyes, his excited expression gradually subsided, and his expression became melancholy.Now he has obtained the power, fame and fortune he dreamed of, but lost Diao Chan forever. This is a pain deep in his heart that cannot be healed.

Is it destined that he cannot have both the fish and the bear's paw in this life, and that if he gains one, he must lose the other?If so, he would rather exchange his current position for Diao Chan's resurrection, but his intention will never come true, and he will never reveal this love to anyone, and he can only keep it in his heart. Slow precipitation,,,,,, until the end of life.

Chapter 265

on the main hall.

All the court officials congratulated Wang Yun and Lu Bu one after another, while the emperor Liu Xie waved his hand to signal the little yellow gatekeeper to move the grand master's chair that had just been removed yesterday to the main hall again, inviting Wang Yun to take a seat.

Wang Yun stepped up to the high platform with an excited expression, and sat on the Grand Master's chair with a red face, only a few steps away from the dragon chair, and the position was only three feet lower than the dragon chair, looking down on all the officials in the court.

Wang Yun has longed for this feeling of superiority.Before that, he had looked up at Dong Zhuogao sitting on the hall and looking down at all the officials, including him, Wang Yun.At that time, he thought to himself: If Dong Zhuo can sit high on the Dragon Court, then one day he, Wang Yun, can also sit high on the stage and replace Dong Zhuo.Ever since he had this longing, he has been thinking day and night about pulling Dong Zhuo off the high platform and replacing him himself.

Today, all this has come true, the dream has come true.In Wang Yun's heart, there was boundless pride and pride, and he was full of ambition. Today, he has all the authority in his hands, and he can influence the general situation of the world with his words and deeds.

This feeling is really wonderful, it makes people ecstatic, looking down on the world!

However, when Wang Yun saw Lu Bu with a gloomy expression in the main hall, the heat in his heart suddenly cooled down, and a monstrous hatred surged in his heart.

That's right, he, Wang Yun, has now obtained everything he wanted, and personally saved the Eastern Han Dynasty, which was about to collapse, and became famous all over the world, and will be recorded in history forever.But he lost his only daughter, Wang Ying, so he had no successors, and the incense of the Wang family was cut off since then.Even though he is an extremely human minister, what is the use of holding power in the world, he is still a lonely and lonely man who is dying.Cut off children and grandchildren!

Wang Yun is more than 60 years old this year. Although he was born in the Wang family of Bingzhou, the Wang family has already withered talents due to years of war, and his line of Wang Yun is the orthodox Wang family, the blood of the head of the family.Now he rules the world.Afterwards, there will naturally be disciples from the family who agree with him, but those people have a weak blood relationship with him, not as close as the emperor Liu Xie who is sitting on the dragon chair.Because Liu Xie was born of Queen Beauty, the younger brother of Wang Yun's family, he is equivalent to Wang Yun's grandson.It's a pity that although Liu Xie has blood relationship with him, after all, he is not a member of the Wang clan, but a member of the royal family.

Sitting on the grand teacher's chair, after Wang Yun got his wish, he inexplicably felt an unspeakable desolation, which turned into monstrous hatred, and the cold light in his eyes was bright.It seems to choose someone and devour them.

Just at this time, Chen Gong went out to the front of the hall, and played the matter of surrender and appeasement that he had discussed with Wang Yun last night, asking the emperor to issue an edict to forgive Dong Zhuo's party.After pardoning many Xiliang generals headed by Li Jue and Guo Si, the name of Wuwei Li Li suddenly appeared in Chen Gong's mouth.I just don't know if it was intentional or for other reasons.Chen Gong Shangzuo always put Wuwei Li Li's name behind.Putting it together with the general Xiliang generals, trying to confuse the public and pass the test.

"No pardon!" Before Chen Gong finished his report, Wang Yun stood up abruptly, walked down the high platform slowly, and stood in front of the hall with a sullen face.said sharply.

"Ah!" Chen Gong suddenly looked at Wang Yun in shock, and immediately argued with reason: "Grand Master, this is what I reported to you last night. I have already made it very clear about the stakes. The grand master promised this matter with his own mouth, but now how can he go back on his word and break his promise and get fat?"

Wang Yun turned a blind eye to Chen Gong's panicked and urgent expression, turned around and bowed to the emperor Liu Xie, and immediately said to the officials with a proud expression: "The national thief Dong Zhuo blasphemed the court, disrupted the court, killed wantonly, and his crimes are heinous. Among Dong's many crimes, Most of them were done by Li Jue and Guo Si. Over the past three years, the two of them have killed many loyal and good ministers of our dynasty, and how many veteran officials of the three dynasties were led by them to ransack their homes. Now if the crimes of Li and Guo are pardoned , Where is the majesty of the emperor, where is the face of His Majesty and our officials, and how can we deter the princes of the world?"

After saying these words, Wang Yun's tone paused for a moment, and then he continued with a stern expression: "Wuwei Li Li, a bastard. This thief is Dong Thief's beloved son-in-law, and he is a close relative of Dong Thief. Forgive me! What's more, Li Li's little thief has resorted to military action to bring disaster to Liangzhou, and he is far away from the capital. If this thief is not eliminated, Chang'an City will not be peaceful, and there will be endless troubles!

Therefore, Li Li, Li Jue, Guo Si and other thieves will not be pardoned.These three thieves and generals are vicious and vicious. If they are not killed, the people will not be angry, and if they are not killed, they will not be enough to rule the court. If they are not killed, Xiliang will not be pacified, and the country and society will not be stabilized!I implore Your Majesty to send a decree to summon the people of the tiger and Ben to kill Li Li, Li Jue, and Guo Si, to upright the court program, to demonstrate the imperial prestige, to bring peace to the people, and to pacify Xiliang.Kill the three thieves as a warning to others! "

Wang Yunyi's stern words caused the officials of the Manchu Dynasty to whisper among each other.Most of the officials echoed Wang Yunzhi's words, thinking that Li Li, Li Jue, Guo Si and others should be killed, but Huangfusong, Zhu Jun and more than a dozen officials who were friendly with Cai Yong hesitated and seemed to be vacillating. , did not comment immediately.But Chen Gong who was standing in front of Wang Yun was blushing, ashamed and indignant, his cheeks puffed up with anger, but he was helpless.

At present, all the officials in the Manchu Dynasty are looking forward to Wang Yunma, not to mention that he is in the position of grand master, regent of the country and assistant government, with great power in his hands.Now Wang Yun backtracked and categorically vetoed what was discussed last night. Even though Chen Gong had various reasons, it was futile and powerless.

Moreover, Wang Yun opened his mouth to veto the memorial, but it seemed that Chen Gong was smart, ignorant of current affairs, deliberately showing off his superiority, but in the end he was ashamed and made a commotion.Such an embarrassing situation made Chen Gong extremely ashamed and indignant, wishing he could leave immediately to avoid embarrassment.

Seeing that most of the officials agreed with Wang Yunzhi's words, and the emperor Liu Xie was also quite moved, and seemed to agree, Chen Gong was immediately anxious.Immediately he stubbornly said loudly: "Your Majesty, Grand Master, Li Li, Li Jue, Guo Si and others are all generals of Xiliang. Even if they are forced to a desperate road, once they are forced to attack Chang'an, the situation will be out of hand. Although Chang'an City is tall and strong, it cannot stop the attack of more than [-] Xiliang troops. If they rush to jump over the wall and attack the city day and night, Then His Majesty, ministers and other officials may be in danger again, and their lives will be lost!"

Wang Yun turned a deaf ear to Chen Gong's words, shook his head in disdain, and immediately said loudly with confidence: "I have Fenwei General Lu Bu, why be afraid of Xiliang bandits!"

Wang Yun's powerful words made all the officials agree one after another, which prompted Emperor Liu Xie to readily agree with Wang Yun's words, and immediately issued an order to call on the people of the world to kill Li Li, Li Jue and Guo Si.In addition to the three of them, Niu Fu, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, Duan Yan, and Dong Yue and Dong Huang who fled the city.Li Ru and others also appeared on the wanted list.

Seeing Wang Yun covering the sky with one hand, Chen Gong lowered his head and returned to his original position in great disappointment.Standing among the officials, with a gloomy and worried expression on his face, he shook his head and sighed, then closed his eyes and remained silent.

"Report to Grand Master, Cai Zhonglang requested to collect Dong Zhuo's body for burial at Zhengyang Gate!"

It was time to retire from the court, but I saw Wei Xu, who was temporarily serving as the lieutenant of the trapped camp and recovering from a serious illness, was waiting at the gate of the main hall to report respectfully.

"Cai Zhonglang Cai Yong?" Surrounded by hundreds of officials, Wang Yun couldn't help groaning when he heard Wei Xuzhi's words, and then he said in a rage: "Bold Cai Yong, dare to collect the corpse for the thief Dong, this is helping the tyrant to abuse! Earlier, the old man cared about him. It is the old minister of the former emperor who forgives him for his sin of having an affair with Dong thief, but now he is obsessed with his obsession and blatantly ignores His Majesty's edict. Wei Xu, immediately arrest Cai Yong and put him in prison. If he resists, he will be executed immediately!"

"No, the last general will take the order." Hearing Wang Yun's order, Wei Xu raised his head and glanced at Lu Bu, seeing him nodding his head lightly, he accepted the order happily and strode away.

"Teacher, Mr. Cai Yong is loyal to His Majesty, is he a rebellious person? What's more, he is a great Confucianist in the world, with many disciples and old officials. If he is killed, he will be criticized by others." Seeing Wang Yun's murderous look again It was so serious that he ordered to kill people at every turn, Chen Gong couldn't help admonishing him again.

"There is no need to say too much on the public platform. Cai Yong had a close relationship with Dong Zhuo before, and he is also the father-in-law of the thief general Li Li. Now he is even more lawless. He is openly asking for Dong Zhuo's body to be buried in broad daylight. His crime is unforgivable and he should be killed! "Wang Yun didn't even look at Chen Gong, and said sharply in a resolute tone.

Seeing that Wang Yun insisted on going his own way, Chen Gong couldn't listen to his advice at all, so he buried his head and followed Wang Yun without saying anything.However, the worry and disappointment in his eyes intensified, his expression was quite uneasy, and there was a hint of unbearable feeling between his brows.

The well-known Confucian Cai Yong was actually designated by Wang Yun as Dong Zhuo's party member and ordered to be executed on the spot.What happened to Wang Yun? How could he become so bloodthirsty and untrustworthy overnight?

When the sky was bright, Cai Yong finally packed up all the slips and filled eighteen large wooden boxes.

During this period, Li Zhi held the lamps for Cai Yong all the time, and then sealed the boxes one by one, and then moved the wooden boxes into the cellar.It wasn't until it was bright outside the window that he suddenly realized that it took him a whole night to pack the slips.

After depositing the slips of letters, Li Zhi immediately took Cai Yong with him and crossed the wall, left Cai's mansion, and went straight to Longxiang Li's mansion without further delay.

Unexpectedly, Cai Yong stopped when he saw Dong Zhuo's corpse hanging on the palace gate when passing by the gate of Zhengyang Palace.Then he went straight to the palace gate to pay homage to Dong Zhuo, no matter how Li Zhi tried to persuade him, it was useless, and he could only watch him walk to the palace gate in the end.

Unexpectedly, Cai Yong cried more and more sadly under the palace gate, and actually asked the guards to untie the body of Dong Zhuo's body, and he wanted to bury Dong Zhuo's body.Fortunately, the school captain knew Cai Yong, he didn't dare to be rough, and he didn't make things difficult for him, he just persuaded him to leave with good words.

But Cai Yong's temper is really too stubborn, stubborn, insisting on collecting Dong Zhuo's body.As a result, the captain had nothing to do with Cai Yong, he could not beat or scold him, so he had to arrange for a soldier to watch him, and then the captain got on his horse and went to the palace to report.

Among the onlookers who were less than fifty steps away from the palace gate, Li Zhi was among them.He was quite puzzled by Cai Yong's unexpected behavior. If he hadn't taken into account Li Li's order to bring Cai Yong back unscathed, he would have knocked Cai Yong unconscious on the spot, and then taken him out of the city.Unexpectedly, when he hesitated for a moment, Cai Yong went straight to the palace gate to mourn for Dong Zhuo, which made the originally well-arranged plan to leave the city a mess.

Now that the matter has come to this point, Li Zhi had no choice but to hide in the crowd of onlookers and play by ear.Other than that, he has nothing to do, but protecting Cai Yong's safety is his top priority, and there is absolutely no room for loss.

Chapter 266

Zhengyang Palace Gate.

Following Cai Yong's heartbroken mourning, more and more people gathered around, and within a short time, thousands of people gathered.Everyone formed a semicircle, pointing and pointing at Cai Yong, who was crying bitterly, with mixed opinions and opinions.

Although Dong Zhuo was notorious in front of him, his death was like a lamp going out.Although the people in Chang'an City resented Dong Zhuo's brutal and tyrannical rule before his death, but now that Dong Zhuo had been dead for a long time and hung on the palace gate for a whole day and night, the great resentment was relieved.Therefore, most of the onlookers took a positive attitude towards Cai Yong's request to collect Dong Zhuo's body, but there were still some who seemed to have lingering hatred and were very dissatisfied with Cai Yong's move.

Fortunately, Cai Yong's name as a great Confucian is still very useful. After the onlookers knew his identity, no one threw him with rotten eggs or vegetable leaves.Li Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, and gradually let go of the worries in his throat, and waited for the outcome of the matter with peace of mind.

"Da da da!"

"The grand master has an order that Dong thief's corpse will not be buried for ten days! Zuo Zhonglang general Cai Yong is Dong thief's party. He is obsessed with obsession and helps the tyrant to abuse him. He will be imprisoned immediately. If he dares to resist, he will be executed on the spot!" , the captain reined in his horse and swung his whip and shouted loudly.

Immediately, he drew out his long sword and shouted sharply: "The soldiers in the battle obey the order and arrest Cai Yong immediately, there must be no mistake!"

Although the captain looked stern and raised his long sword high, he did not see him doing it himself, but commanded the soldiers surrounding Cai Yong to kill Cai Yong.It can be seen from this that the school lieutenant was quite afraid of Cai Yong and did not dare to kill Cai Yong himself.

"You actually said that this old man is Dong Zhuo's accomplice?" Cai Yong stood up in grief, glared at the captain in disbelief, and angrily said: "Could it be that this old man's collection of Dong Zhuo's body is to help the evildoers, and there is nothing wrong with wanting to commit a crime? The old man Cai Yong is an old minister of the late emperor. He has been loyal to the late emperor for decades. How can Wang Yun be allowed to slander the old man’s reputation! You can’t allow the old man to collect Dong Xiangguo’s body, so that’s all. Why did you frame me? Lieutenant Wuna, who are you? Why are you talking nonsense?"

The lieutenant immediately waved his hand to signal the soldiers not to do anything for the time being, rode his horse up to Cai Yong, got off his horse and said, "I am Wei Xu, General Fenwei Lu Bu's general. Even if Cai Zhonglang has a grievance, Wei can't do anything about it. To execute Cai Zhonglang to death, Wei is only following the order to carry out. That's all, Cai Zhonglang will be arrested without a fight!"

After finishing speaking, Wei Xu waved his hand, and the armored soldiers quickly surrounded him and bound Cai Yong's hands and feet in the blink of an eye.Don't move.

"Wait a minute!" Cai Yong shouted angrily when his body was held down by the soldier.Struggling to break free from the soldier, he walked to Wei Xu.Angrily said: "You are Wei Xu who escaped with my life under the hands of my son-in-law Wenchang? How dare you tie this old man up!"
