When Li Ru left the mansion, the messenger was about to mount his horse and leave. Seeing this, he asked in confusion, "Why doesn't Liangzhou Mu bring some generals with him?"
Li Ru was confident and determined to show off his skills in front of the civil and military forces of Chang'an. He immediately laughed and said wildly, "It's just a demon, why bother? If there hadn't been a military rebellion that day, I would have killed Yu Xian with my sword."
The messenger raised his brows, but did not show any joy on his face.
How can this Li Ru be a kind person?
In these troubled times, Chang'an City has wolves at the front door and tigers at the back door.
It's really not a blessing.
The envoy had something in mind and simply dismounted his horse and said with a smile, "Liangzhou Mu is good at his skills. It just so happens that he is not in a hurry to return to his post. I will stay with Liangzhou Mu and watch Liangzhou Mu display his power."
Li Ru was overjoyed after hearing this, "Very good."
He was desperate and returned to Chang'an, just when he expected to be recognized by the court.
As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit dies and a running dog cooks it.
Nowadays, everything is in chaos and everyone is a cunning rabbit. This is the time when lackeys can be used to their advantage.
What Li Ru was lucky to have was this ability!
He looked at the middle-aged civil servant with a smile and said, "I see that your Excellency has an extraordinary bearing. You must not be an ordinary person. Who is your name?"
The middle-aged civil servant smiled when he heard this and said calmly, "I'm going to file a lawsuit with Sima Fang."
"Sima Fang?" Li Ru said casually as he heard something familiar, "I have an impression."
Sima Fang looked at Li Ru, smiled slightly, and said, "Xiaguan served successively as the Luoyang Order and Jing Zhaoyin. Later, during the Guandong Uprising, Xiaguan was demoted as the Censor of the Book by the Liangzhou Mu for improper recommendation of people.
After the Luoyang Rebellion, he was deprived of his official position by Liangzhou Mu for instigating his eldest son to abandon his official position and return to his hometown. It was not until a few days ago that he returned to the court and served as the Cavalry Commander."
Li Ru was surprised when he heard this.
This Sima Fang was demoted by him? Is there such a thing?
But at that time, he was handling government affairs for Dong Zhuo. The affairs were complicated and it was impossible to cover everything. Whether this matter was involved or not, it is not certain.
A hint of gloom flashed in Li Ru's heart.
He didn't want to have anything to do with Dong Zhuo anymore, and said flatly, "I don't have any impression of this. Dong was tyrannical at that time, and I was just a human being. Many things had to be done out of necessity. Fortunately, I finally came to my senses.
, together with the scholars Sun Rui, Yang Biao and other virtuous people, we will kill this thief and help the country."
Li Ru's dark history of committing crimes on behalf of Dong Zhuo has become a huge hidden danger. If he wants to avoid the disaster, he can only tie up Sergeant Sun Rui in the battle against Dong.
As long as Shi Sunrui's identity remains unchanged, then Li Ru, as his ally who cooperates internally and externally, can be cleared of past charges.
Sima Fang nodded when he heard this, but stopped talking about this topic.
Li Ru felt uneasy, but also wanted to resolve the grudge, and immediately asked tentatively, "I wonder who the Captain of Cavalry is implicated for?"
Sima Fang was also calm, "Cao Cao, Cao Mengde. Although this man was a eunuch, from my perspective, he has the talent to govern the world. At that time, the official happened to be the Luoyang order, so he recommended him to be the northern captain of Luoyang. Later he escaped
In Luoyang, there was an uprising against Dong, so I was also implicated."
After hearing this, Li Ru's expression suddenly changed.
After Sima Fang mentioned it, he remembered a disaster.
The imperial court may have to use him, but when he handled the affairs of Dong Zhuo, he offended many courtiers and officials. Can these officials tolerate him?
Not to mention anything else, just the matter Sima Fang mentioned is a big trouble.
At that time, due to the Kwantung Rebellion, a large number of officials were implicated, and the Grand Tutor Yuan Wei was even wiped out...
Now Yuan Wei's two nephews, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, are now heroes of the generation.
How do you get along with them?
Sima Fang saw Li Ru looking at him, his expression gloomy and thoughtful.
I couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Liangzhou Mu?"
When Li Ru came back to his senses, he also realized that he had lost his composure.
He calmed down his thoughts and changed the topic with a forced smile, "I see that the Cavalry Commander is graceful and youthful, and I never thought that my son could serve the court. Now that Dong's thieves have been eliminated and the court is clear, it's time for your son to make a comeback. If so,
I don’t mind riding the captain, and I am willing to recommend him to the imperial court.”
Sima Fang remained calm, shook his head, and said calmly, "Although the dog Sima Lang was lucky enough to be used by the court, he has less experience after all. I have ordered him to study hard at home. It just so happens that Sima Yi and Sima Fu also need someone to discipline them, so I will just
I can live up to the kindness of Liangzhou Mu."
Li Ru didn't know how sincere Sima Fang's words were, and just assumed that he didn't want to reconcile.
He became increasingly uneasy about surrendering to the Chang'an court.
Anger also arises spontaneously.
Without Dong Bai's master and apprentice, how could he have ended up in this situation?
Li Ru took a deep breath and said in a cold tone, "That's all...where is the demon Yu Xian?"
Sima Fang looked helpless, "This is the reason why I asked Liangzhou Mu to lead Qi family generals. The evil ways are flowing all over the city, and the city's defense line has been torn into holes. Now there are gongs and drums everywhere, spreading lies.
No one can tell where the evil path is."
After hearing this, Li Ru lowered his head and thought for a moment, then sneered, "What's so difficult about this?"
As he spoke, he took out a small light yellow gourd from his arms.
Li Ru looked around and saw a well deep in the alley in front of the house.
He strolled to the well and unplugged the gourd.
Just when Li Ru was about to pour the contents of the gourd into the well.
But Sima Fang suddenly changed his expression, stepped forward and grabbed Li Ru's sleeve, and asked solemnly.
"Liangzhou Mu, what is this?"
Li Ru frowned slightly, shook hard, pulled back his sleeves, and asked, "What?"
Sima Fang looked at Li Ru seriously and said slowly, "I heard that Liangzhou Mu has the poison of the dragon..."
Li Ru was shocked and angry, and shouted, "That's nonsense!"
My heart has become cold.
He simply ignored Sima Fang and concentrated on killing Yu Xian, his great enemy.
He shook his hand.
A stream of water like a silver thread fell from the gourd into the well.
It took less than a moment.
Just after hearing a "boom", a rapid stream of water suddenly spurted out from the well.
The water sprayed out ten feet high and suddenly exploded in mid-air.
A translucent shadow slowly emerged above it, supported by the gushing water column, looking around indifferently.
Then soon, another water well not far away also made a "boom" sound, and a water column rushed out.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
Tall water columns gush out from wells in all directions!
All the water wells connected to the water veins in Chang'an City have become nodes.
The water droplets splashing everywhere, under the scorching sun, shine with colorful rainbow light everywhere.
——Just like the fireworks released all over the sky on a night of bliss.
Chang'an City, which was originally in chaos and fighting, suddenly experienced this change, as if the freeze button had been pressed.
Whether they were soldiers fighting, civilians taking refuge, or panicked traffickers, all of them opened their mouths wide and looked at the incredible scene in front of them.
In a small alley, Yu Xian stopped.
He ignored the top of the water column and stared at Tang Zhou coldly. He looked at the water columns gushing out from the wells around him, pulled out the long knife he had grabbed and praised in his mouth.
