Chapter 21: The Son of Heaven

Evening, dusk.

The lights were brightly lit inside the temporary residence of Li Jue and Guo Ji. Chang'an had already been conquered halfway. For these two people who didn't have much ambition, just wanted to have food and drink, and a little bit of power, this battle was basically

It was already considered a victory. All that was left was to wait for that old thief Wang Yun to bow his head to them, grant him an official position, or become a marquis. As for who would become the emperor, they were not interested. These days, as long as the soldiers had food, that would be enough.

"General!" A general came in a hurry, came to Li Jue and Guo Ji and said, "Commander Li Ru and generals Hua Xiong and Xu Rong have arrived..."

"What!?." Li Jue was shocked and asked quickly: "How many troops did you bring?..."

"There is only one person accompanying me..." the general said solemnly.

"What are they here for?" Guo Ji frowned. He originally thought they were here to seize power, but it was obviously impossible to come with just one person. Even if Hua Xiong is brave enough to be worthy of ten thousand men, there are many generals here.

, and Li Ru, a weak scholar, can he take care of him by himself?

"Let them come in first. After all, we are officials in the same dynasty. The Grand Master has treated me well before. Don't embarrass them..." Fan Chou frowned and said, but as he spoke, he had already consciously excluded the three of them from their group.

Xiu, Hua Xiong and Xu Rong were very famous among the Xiliang army.

"Okay, please invite them in..." Li Jue thought about it. The other party only brought one person in, which obviously showed their sincerity and it was not good to go too far, so he nodded immediately.

In fact, although there are occasional frictions below, on the surface, the few people still maintain a superficial friendship when they meet. It has not reached the point where their faces are really broken. It is just the estrangement and differences that have been buried as early as Dong Zhuo's era.

Got off.

"Wen You, Wen Zheng and Da Rong, hurry up and take your seats, I'm preparing someone to invite you over..." Li Jue welcomed Li Ru and Li Ru into the hall with a friendly smile on his face, and Wang Shuang followed closely.

Although he had no impression of Wang Shuang, Li Jue didn't have much impression of Wang Shuang. He was probably a three-person follower, so Li Jue didn't think much about it.

Li Ru looked at the sky and saw that there was still some time before the appointed time. He said a few polite words and sat down with Li Jue and others respectively. After drinking for three times, Li Jue saw that Li Ru had no intention of speaking first, and finally

He couldn't help but said: "Wen You, I don't know why you came here tonight?..."

"We came here for the inner city. Now that our army has captured the outer city of Chang'an, we only need to work harder to rush into the inner city and avenge the grand master." Why did Zhiran stop attacking?" Li Ru was silent.

After a while, he finally asked in a deep voice.

Li Jue and Guo Ji could not help but be silent for a moment after hearing the words. After a long time, Guo Bacai said: "I know that Wen You is thinking about the death of the grand master, but now that things have happened, we must find a way to survive for these millionaires. Before, Wang

The old man refused to pardon us, but now a million-strong army is besieging us, and all the food and grass in Chang'an City have been obtained by our army. "I'm sorry that the old man doesn't dare to embarrass us anymore..."

"Childish!..." Li Ru's face darkened and he said sternly.

"What did you say!?." Behind them, several generals glared angrily and drew their swords at each other. Hua Xiong and Xu Rong, not to be outdone, stood up suddenly, their eyes wide with anger.

"Wen Zheng, sit down!" Li Ru waved his hand and motioned for Hua Xiong to sit down. Li Jue also asked his subordinates to step down, but looked at Li Ru with a somewhat unkind expression: "Wen You, you and I have been friends for many years.

I don’t want to embarrass you, but I must explain this to me clearly today..."

"Ru just wants to ask you, if you were Wang Yun, how would you feel if you were forced to sign such an alliance under the city?" Li Ru ignored the murderous look in Li Jue's eyes and said coldly: "Don't tell me, You have millions of Xiliang troops in your hands, what are you afraid of what he will do? How does it compare to the Grand Master, but what is the end of the Grand Master now?…"

The murderous aura in Li Jue's eyes dissipated a bit. After a silence, Li Ru stood up and said coldly: "Today, the three of us are here for no other reason than to confirm Zhiran's feelings. If Zhiran still holds the With such a mentality, Naru immediately said goodbye to the two generals Hua Xiong and Xu Rong. You want to die, but we don't want to accompany you to die together."

"It's just that the inner city is strong and heavily guarded. If we attack by force, we will suffer heavy losses..." Li Jue hesitated a little. He didn't think so much before, but now that he thinks about it, if he were put in Wang Yun's position , even if he signed this alliance under the city today, when the imperial court recovers its strength in the future, he will definitely not let him go. Moreover, Wang Yun is full of bad ideas. How powerful was Dong Zhuo before? But he conspired to kill Li Jueguo every day. I asked myself, compared with Dong Zhuo, I'm afraid they are still a little far behind. If Wang Yunruo is really determined to harm himself, I'm afraid.........I don't dare to think about it anymore...

"Besides, instead of putting your destiny in the hands of others, why not put your destiny in your own hands?" Li Ru naturally saw the other party's heartbeat and threw out another bait.

"Wen You means..." Li Jue looked at Li Ru puzzledly, feeling so disgusted in his heart. It's already this time, why are you talking in such a roundabout way?

"Strangle Wang Yun and Huangpu Song to avenge the Grand Master, and at the same time control the Emperor in his hands... holding the Emperor hostage to order the princes!" Li Ru said decisively.

"His a few..."

Li Jue, Guo Ji, Fanchou and the generals around them couldn't help but gasped when they heard this, and they threatened the emperor to order the princes. Dong Zhuo had done this before, but they hadn't thought about it before. So when we attacked Chang'an, we still felt that our lives were threatened. Wearing such a big hat was just to avenge Dong Zhuo.

But after that, everyone's eyes burned with a hot flame. The world was in their hands, and the beauty was in their arms. What a pleasant thing it was. If it was for their lives just now, but now, these people's feelings about power have been changed by Li Ru's words. His ambitions were completely stirred up.

"To hold the emperor hostage to command the princes, it is only after intercepting the emperor...,..." Li Jue was a little clearer than the others. He hesitated and asked, "The distribution of rights must be explained clearly first. They have powerful soldiers in their hands." They were the main force in the capture of Chang'an. If the power was taken away by Li Ru afterwards, they would still be thugs, which would not be worthwhile.

Nothing has been done yet, but he is already thinking about the distribution of benefits. After all, he is not the one who has done it! A flash of contempt and disdain flashed in Li Ru's eyes. Even if these people can really threaten the emperor, the result will probably only make the world more chaotic and make the princes more chaotic. , just with these few pieces of materials?

"Don't worry, the three of us have decided that after avenging the Grand Master, we will go to Jiangdong with Wu Hou..." Although Li Ru was disdainful in his heart, he could not show it. He said calmly that he had a longer term in mind. With Li Jue and With Guo Ji's character and conduct, even if he could really support the emperor and command the princes, he would never last long. The princes of Guandong would definitely not be obedient. Think about how Dong Zhuo had Lu Bu's courage and Li Ru's plan, but in the end he provoked a crusade from the princes. .

Li Jue and Guo Ji were not as brave as Lu Bu, nor as wise as Li Ru. Li Ru could even imagine what Chang'an and Xiliang would look like after the emperor fell into their hands.

If there is no other choice, he can only stay here and try his best to plan. No one in the Guandong princes will accept him, even if they know that he has the ability, but the hat on his head is that of a rebellious minister and traitor, even if he is the fourth generation and the third prince.

Yuan Shao would only give him a wide berth and would never openly accept him.

But now, besides Chang'an, he has another choice, and that is Qingtian City in Jiangdong. Like himself, he has the reputation of being a rebellious official, but unlike Li Jue and Guo Ji, it can be seen from Taitian's past that this

People are courageous and ambitious, but also lack of means. Compared with Li Guo and Li Guo, although Jiangdong is not as prosperous as Chang'an, it has the potential to develop vigorously. Moreover, although Qin Tian received 0 generals, he lacked counselors. It was he who used

The place of martial arts.

If Dong Zhuo was still alive, he would definitely not think this way, but now that Dong Zhuo is dead and he is gone, he has to make plans for the future.

Before coming, he, Hua Xiong and Xu Rong had already discussed that after avenging Dong Zhuo, they would go to Jiangdong together and surrender to Qingtian City. With the decision in his heart, he would naturally no longer linger here. In Chang'an, maybe in a short time, he could

You can gain some wealth, but it won't last long. It's better to go to Jiangdong.

"Seriously?." Li Jue's eyes lit up. Without the constraints of these three people, wouldn't the world from Xiliang to Yongzhou be theirs?

"Isn't Wu Hou already..." Guo Ji frowned and said. Previously, Taitian personally cut off the rear and fell into the city in order to let Xu Rong and others leave the city. Now more than a month has passed. When he thought about it, he was probably already in trouble.

A lot of good luck.

"My lord is not dead!..." With a muffled groan, Wang Shuang stood up from behind the three of them and said coldly.

"Uh,...,...this is...,..." Li Jue looked at Wang Shuang doubtfully and asked in confusion.

"This is the bodyguard of Marquis Wu, General Wang Shuang. He came out of the inner city today to join us and others during the chaos. Now Marquis Wu is fine and is still in the inner city. He wants to meet us as well."

Cooperate with me tonight to destroy the city!" Xu Rong said calmly.

"In this way, the matter is settled!".

Li Guo and Li were overjoyed when they heard this. They didn't expect that there was actually a group of their troops in the inner city.

"I'm here just to discuss this matter!" Li Ru said. He sincerely hopes that Li Jue and Guo Ji can live longer. At present, Taitian's power is not too strong. In the land of the three armies, Jiangdong Liu

The county only accounts for half, and if calculated in terms of cities, it is not even half enough. Li Jue and Guo Ji were in Chang'an, holding the emperor hostage to command the princes.

Tiancheng has more time to develop and grow. In this regard, there is still some common ground with them.

At that moment, Li Ru asked Wang Shuang to tell Tai Tian's specific instructions, and together with Xu Rong, he helped Li Jue and Guo Ji plan.

Although they didn't completely believe them and were somewhat defensive, Li Jue and Guo Ji couldn't help but listen to Li Ru's suggestions because of the huge benefits before them.

"Okay, that's how it should be!" After discussing it for an hour, we finally made a proper plan based on the news released by Taitian.

(I’m running naked next week. I’m not in a good mood today. My mind is still in a mess. I seem to be diligent in updating this week, but I can’t get any recommendations. I’m depressed.) (To be continued.)
