”Haha …” The three of them laughed and raised their cups.
At this moment, the door to the private room suddenly opened with a creak. A figure slipped in. Zhang Banxian thought that the owner of the tavern had entered again. He was about to get angry, but when he turned around, he suddenly screamed: ”You …”
Fei Hong and Liang Ming hurriedly raised their heads, and could not help but be shocked. So the one who came in was none other than Zhang Ren's eunuch, Little Yellow Gate's Li Yu. As Zhang Nan refused to follow hussar general, a few of the eunuchs also followed him and disappeared without a trace.
”The lords are really in the mood …” Dong Zhuo has already raised his butcher's blade, and yet you all are still drinking here! ” Li Yu sat down and stared at the Zhang Banxian unhappily: ”Could this be the result that the hussar general wanted to see?
”Why are you blaming hussar general? Don't tell me you're not the ones who caused everything today? ” Zhang Banxian's face changed as she said angrily, ”If you didn't kill He Jin, the situation would not have been this bad! If the Darkhan Dynasty were to die one day, you all will be the main culprits! ”
Li Yu swallowed his saliva, and was unable to say a word.
”Speak, why are you looking for us?” Although the Zhang Banxian was a little angry, these eunuchs had helped the cavalry of Youzhou before, even though they had also received many benefits from the cavalry of Youzhou. If they have any difficulties, help them, help them as much as you can.
”The Grand Manager is here with us. We have been thinking of ways to save the Young Emperor.” After being angered by Zhang Banxian for a while, Li Yu's attitude softened as well, ”These few days, we have discovered that you are also in contact with the palace maids in North Palace. Originally, after we rescued the Young Emperor, we were prepared to seek refuge in the hussar general. That was why the Grand Manager had ordered me to contact you all so that we could rescue the Young Emperor together. ”
”Oh …” Zhang Banxian understood that these Eunuch had not given up. They still wanted to send the Young Emperor to cavalry of Youzhou to restore their former power. Zhang Banxian sneered in her heart, but on the surface, she continuously nodded her head. You are all familiar with the imperial palace. If we join forces, we will definitely be able to save the Young Emperor. ”
In the morning assembly the next day, half of the ministers actually did not come. The Gardner Hall was cold and cheerless. Even the ministers that came to attend the morning assembly were silent. The hall was so quiet that it made people's hearts jump.
Dong Zhuo walked forward and said coldly: ”Yesterday afternoon, a dozen or so ministers, including Zong Zheng, Liu Ji, Liu Yuan, Sanglang Zhang Kui and others, suddenly rebelled, attempting to slay the Son of Heaven to establish a new ruler. I have already given the order to kill all those who are involved in this conspiracy! ”
The atmosphere in the Gardner Hall was tense, filled with killing intent. These ministers were already on tenterhooks when they came to participate in the assembly. Hearing Dong Zhuo's words, the ministers were even more shocked, their expressions changed, and some of the timid ministers could not help but tremble.
”The rebellion has subsided and all the conspirators have been killed.” Dong Zhuo paused for a moment, his eyes coldly swept across the crowd and said sternly: ”Whoever dares to speak such nonsense, has the right to speak. If you want to live, keep your mouth in check. ”
”Brother Gongsun, you must take care of yourself in Liaodong. The Hussar General Yang Lin had been in control of the entire Youzhou for five years, and all the officials of the County were his subordinates. When you go this time, it would be best for you to greet the hussar general and get his support before you continue your slow development in the Liaodong. ”
Xu Rong had followed Dong Zhuo for many years and was deeply trusted by him. The reason he recommended Gongsun Du to him was also because he wanted to return the favor to Gongsun Du. He didn't expect Dong Zhuo to send Gongsun Du to the Liaodong, so the smart Xu Rong immediately understood what he meant. Thinking that Gongsun Du was such a strong person, Xu Rong couldn't help but worry.
”Although Yang Lin is powerful, the Liaodong is still our homeland, and our family's influence and connections in the Liaodong are not inferior to Yang Lin's either. If I went to see him, he would underestimate me. If I go straight to the office, what can he do about it? ”
Gongsun Du was extremely confident, and didn't care about Yang Lin at all. He had also been a Jizhou Thorn History before, and his official position was not small either. There was no need to pay Yang Lin a visit. Furthermore, he was also a little worried that if he went to see Yang Lin and had Yang Lin take care of him, he would not have the chance to go to Liaodong again.
Seeing that he could not persuade Gongsun Du, Xu Rong could only shake his head helplessly. As a general, he understood Yang Lin better. With Yang Lin's current strength, he couldn't possibly tolerate a taiwai who didn't have the same thoughts as him in his own territory.
”Alright, take care!” Xu Rong's mood was also as dark and gloomy as the sky. He waved his hands to bid farewell to Gongsun Du. Looking at Gongsun Du's retreating back, Xu Rong's heart was filled with bitterness. He was truly unable to predict how he would be able to recommend Gongsun Du, but he did not know whether it would be to help him or harm him.
