I, Dong Zhuo, love the people like a son

Needless to say, just this thought makes her envious: Although her own son is also extremely filial, compared to other sons, he spends so much time cooking food for his mother...

There is no comparison between people!

Thinking of this, I couldn't help taking a spoon and scooping it up. I just tasted the soft, tender and mellow taste, when I suddenly heard a burst of shouting from outside!

The sound was getting closer and closer, and the guards seemed to be unable to resist at all, and retreated one after another.Mother Zhu was so frightened that she dropped all the bowls on the ground, and looked at Old Dong in horror: "Tai, Taiwei, what happened?"

Before Old Dong could answer, he saw a man rushing in like a madman, taking the lead.

Before entering the back hall, people shouted in grief and indignation: "Mother! ... The child has made you suffer. Today, you must kill Dong... Taiwei Dong?"

Zhu Jun, whose eyes were bloodshot, was dumbfounded when he saw the scene in the back hall clearly: he saw Old Dong biting the fritters in a daze, and his mother was safe and sound, but looked at him in horror.

In addition, there are all the female family members of the Dong Mansion, the Cai family father and daughter, the Sima family father and son, and the Zhang Wen family...

Especially Dong Bai and Cai Wan, who were only five or six years old, were frightened for a moment even though they were protected by adults, and immediately burst into tears.

"Gongwei!..." Seeing that the murderous demon king was actually her own son, Zhu's mother suddenly became furious, and said, "You are trying to kill your mother!"

"Boy, baby..." Although Zhu Jun had experienced many battles, this was the first time that Zhu Jun encountered such a situation, even if he was a famous general, he would be dazed.

Looking back at the vulnerable guards in the courtyard, he finally came to his senses: "Tie Dong, are you cheating on me?... No wonder it is so easy for me to bring dozens of confidant soldiers in the heavily guarded Taiwei Mansion... "

"Presumptuous!..." Before he finished speaking, Zhu's mother yelled again, "Mr. Dong is the imperial lieutenant. If you barge in like this, you... what are you doing!"

After finishing speaking, she was trembling with anger and bowed in front of Dong Zhuo again: "I am ashamed, I don't know how to raise such a rebellious son, I implore the Taiwei to punish..."

Zhu Jun, who has known his destiny in recent years, was ashamed and annoyed by such a lesson.

But there is no way, the person who taught him is his own mother who is nearly seventy years old...

"Mother, this Dong thief..."

"Shut up!"

"Mother, listen to the child's explanation."

"Don't hurry up and kneel down and apologize to the Taiwei!" The more Zhu Jun resisted, the angrier Zhu's mother became: "You want to piss me off to death!..."

"Boy, Dong thief, mother..." Seeing that old Dong was still winking at him, but he couldn't explain it, Zhu Jun almost went crazy.

At this time, Old Dong still didn't speak.Instead of opening his mouth, he glanced at Zhang Wen next to him.

Although Zhang Wen is about the same age as Zhu Jun, but he came to the position earlier and is kind to him, of course he can put on a face and shout: "Gong Wei, if you want to kill the old man or the Taiwei if you invade the Taiwei's mansion without permission! "

"Kill the thief Dong!" Unexpectedly, these words seemed to arouse Zhu Jun's rebellious heart that had disappeared for more than 30 years, and he blushed and said, "Mr. Zhang, you don't know that this traitor..."

"Presumptuous!..." Zhang Wen patted the table, his beard trembling with anger: "Then you should kill the old man first!"

Seeing this, Cai Yong couldn't help smoothing things over: "Taiwei, Gongwei is temporarily, temporarily... oh!"

In the middle of the sentence, he didn't know how to say it: a person who is almost 50 years old, what else can he say if he has done something that a five-year-old child can't do?

Only Cai Yan, who was protecting his younger sister, looked at Zhu Jun first, then glared at Dong Zhuo fiercely, guessed something, sighed and said: "Uncle, it seems that you have some misunderstanding with Zhu Gong, why don't I just step back now?" ?”

Old Dong pretended to tremble, and murmured: "He came to kill this old man..."

"If he dares to kill the Taiwei, I will crash myself against the pillar!" Zhu's mother was strong, and angry that Zhu Jun was so rude and caused a catastrophe today, she got up and was about to bump into the pillar of the hall.

"Mother!..." It was still Zhu Jun who stopped his mother with quick eyesight and quick hands, and said helplessly, "Boy, can't it be done if I don't kill this traitor?"

"You are the traitor, you traitor!" Zhu's mother was relentless, and said, "The Taiwei's mother kindly invited me to come and taste the delicious food, you, you!..."

In the end, Dong's mother couldn't stand it any longer, she looked at Dong Zhuo and said, "You and Gong Wei had a good talk, so I'm going back first."

"Here, mother, go slowly." Old Dong saluted deeply.

Mother Zhu felt ashamed when she saw this, she turned to look at Zhu Jun, and said: "Apologize to the Taiwei!"

Soon, a group of female relatives and unrelated people withdrew.

Old Dong looked at several tables of sumptuous breakfasts, and said to Zhu Jun with a smile: "Brother Gongwei, you haven't eaten in the morning, why don't you sit down and have something?"

Without saying a word, Zhu Jun grabbed the long sword in his hand and was about to chop this guy up.

Old Dong was not afraid at all, looked at the direction in which Zhu's mother was leaving, and pretended to shout.

Zhu Jun was suddenly frustrated, and he gritted his teeth and looked at Dong Zhuo: "Dong thief, do you think that this kind of trick can make the old man spare you?...You poisoned the emperor and the queen mother, the heaven and the people are outraged, and the world will punish you!"

After finishing speaking, he regretted it.

It's not regret for saying the wrong thing, but regret: Why didn't you say it in public just now?

Purely pissed off.

The old Dong turned pale with shock, with a look of 'Sir, don't wrong a good man': "Zhu Gongwei, what nonsense are you talking about?...King Hongnong and Empress Dowager He are in Biguiyuan, and you cursed them both passed away?"

"Don't be hypocritical!" Zhu Jun was aggressive and angrily reprimanded: "You are cruel and heartless, and you always cut grass and roots. After the emperor is abolished, there is nothing you can't do to eliminate hidden dangers!"

I thought Dong Zhuo would be furious after saying this.

Unexpectedly, Old Dong was as sad, angry and distressed as if he was stabbed in the back by a loved one, his fat face was distorted: "Gong Wei, is this old man actually such an image in your heart?"

Zhu Jun was so frightened that he took a step back, and then mustered up his courage to say: "Tie Dong, kill him if you want, why are you so disgusting!"

This time, Old Dong was even more wronged, got up and walked out lonely.

She also looked sadly at the wintersweet in the courtyard, and sang sadly like sister Lin: "Those who know me say I am worried, and those who don't know me say I am ugly. Youyou heaven, who is this?..."

There was a sound of 'clang'.

Zhu Jun dropped the sword in his hand, and after quickly picking it up, he looked at Dong Zhuo's back and said, "Dong thief, where do you want to go?"

"Bi Guiyuan." Old Dong turned his head and smiled again, hooking his hands together: "Do you dare to come?"

Chapter 58 This Thief Dong Was... A Loyal Minister?

Re-entering the Empress Dowager He's bedroom in Bi Guiyuan, the situation is quite different.

The guards standing guard outside the palace gate wore their helmets and armor, full of energy and dignity.As soon as they arrived at the gate, there was an eunuch standing in their way, and shouted displeasedly: "The empress dowager and King Hongnong's bedroom, what do you intend to do when you wait for the foreign ministers to come?"

Old Dong knelt down on the spot and performed the ceremony very respectfully: "I am terrified, and I know that foreign ministers are not allowed to enter this place. However, there is an important matter that needs to be decided by the Queen Mother and King Hongnong, please let me know."

Zhu Jun, standing by the side, watched Dong Zhuo's performance quietly, feeling...in fact, a little guilty: Old Dong has a clear conscience all the way, and even brought himself to this bedroom, no matter how you look at it, he looks confident.

But he also couldn't believe that a notorious and murderous guy would suddenly be gentle and benevolent, and his temperament would change drastically... This, this is impossible, absolutely impossible!

While hesitating and contradicting, suddenly... felt someone pulling the corner of his robe.

Looking down, it was the old Dong Zheng who was staring at him with indignation, his eyes seemed to say: "Zhu Gongwei, in front of the palace of the Queen Mother and King Hongnong, how dare you not worship?"

"What a rebel who has no father, no king, and no courtesies!"

Old Zhu is very temperamental, the more others force him, the more rebellious psychology that has disappeared for more than 30 years will resurface, and he said with a cold snort: "If the Queen Mother and King Hongnong are really inside, I will apologize for myself, and I don't need you to remind me !"

As soon as the words fell, the Queen Mother's voice sounded from inside, from far to near: "It's Mr. Dong Taiwei, come in quickly!"

As he said that, he scolded the eunuch: "Didn't the Ai family say that Dong Taiwei is a loyal minister, and he can come and go from this palace at will, how dare you stop him?"

The eunuch cowardly pleaded guilty, but Old Dong firmly bowed to the ground and warned with a serious face: "Queen Mother, etiquette cannot be broken!"

Zhu Jun was immediately dumbfounded: The person who came was really Queen Mother He!

Dressed luxuriously, with a graceful demeanor and a ruddy complexion, he did not look like he had been abused at all.For a moment, he also felt that the Empress Dowager He looked at Old Dong with a kind of joy from the heart.

The relationship between the two... It doesn't look like there is any hatred at all, it's more like comrades-in-arms in the same trench.Just, the intimate kind.

Even, it has surpassed this kind of "comrade in arms" feeling and turned into a posture of "possession".

For a moment, Lao Zhu didn't dare to think about it anymore, the more he thought about it, the more he felt... a million points of insanity.

"He, Yin Zhujun of Henan Province, pay homage to the Empress Dowager." Old Dong pulled down the corner of his robe again, and Lao Zhu woke up with a start, and hurriedly bowed to the ground to salute.

Empress Dowager He glanced at him casually, and then quickly returned her gaze to Old Dong: "Quickly get up, Lieutenant, it's cold in winter, don't freeze your body."

Then, he said something pointedly: "There are not many loyal ministers like a big man like a Taiwei who have both morality and wisdom, and endure humiliation."

Zhu Jun suddenly felt insulted: Is this thief Dong a loyal minister? ...What is that old man!

No, the queen mother seemed to address Dong thief as 'Engong' when she first saw him—he was the one who abolished your own son. Are you out of your mind, woman?

However, no one answered him.

On the contrary, when he looked up, he saw that Empress Dowager He had invited Old Dong into the bedroom.This veteran official who almost lost his life and swore to defend the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty was directly left outside the bedroom.

It was Old Dong who turned around and called out to himself: "Gong Wei, what are you doing outside?"

Immediately, Lao Zhu rebelled again: "You don't need to remind me!"

After arriving at the sleeping hall, Lao Zhu became even more stupid: inside the maid waited on him, the silk and bamboo were melodious, the surrounding charcoal pots were burning vigorously, and the inside of the hall was as warm as spring.

King Hongnong greeted Dong Zhuo with a smile on his face, and the concubine Tang Ji was also full of smiles... It can be seen that after they were abolished, they seemed to be living a very good life, very happy?

In a daze, Lao Zhu felt that they were a family of four who loved each other, and he seemed like an outsider looking for trouble.

Fortunately, Empress Dowager He's brain hasn't completely broken down yet, and she finally took on the attitude of being the mother of the world, and said, "Taiwei, you came here suddenly today, but what's the matter?"

As soon as Zhu Jun heard this, he rushed forward to answer.

But as soon as he took a step forward, he stopped: what did you say? ....It is said that there are rumors that you have already traveled to the underworld, so I came here to take a look?

He immediately froze in place in embarrassment, almost digging out another palace with his feet.

Old Dong smiled understandingly, bowed and said: "Reporting to the Queen Mother, Mr. Zhu heard some rumors from somewhere, and mistakenly thought that the old minister would be harmful to you and King Hongnong, so I came to ask for confirmation."

"Nonsense!" Before the Empress Dowager He could speak, Liu Bian had already slapped the case heavily, furious: "The Taiwei is loyal, and the sun and the moon are shining, who dares to slander the Taiwei like this, he deserves to be killed!"

Empress Dowager He also suddenly changed color, and looked at Dong Zhuo distressedly: "Dong Taiwei, the Ai family has already said that this matter will definitely affect you..."

As he spoke, he looked at Zhu Jun again, with a face full of disappointment and anger: "It's ridiculous that there are people who are stupid and ignorant, and they wronged the Taiwei like this!"

"Queen Mother, Your Majesty!..." Being questioned and humiliated by his mother, benefactor, and these two one after another, Lao Zhu was full of doubts and couldn't hold back: "Well, what's going on here, why doesn't this old man understand anything?"

"It's not because you're stupid!" Liu Bian's drama was a little too much, and he couldn't stop it: "The Taiwei bears the burden of humiliation to protect the lonely queen mother and son, but you don't know the painstaking efforts!"

Empress Dowager Ho is obviously a born actress.

Seeing that his son's words were a little heavy, he pulled back a little, sighed slightly, and then said softly: "It's no wonder Zhu Shijun, anyway, he still knows to come and visit us and wait for mother and son. It's just... alas!"

Looking at Old Dong with concern and resentment: "It's just that the Taiwei is suffering..."

"Isn't it because Ai's mother and son are afraid of being harmed by treacherous officials, and deliberately pretended to be a powerful official who abolished Bian'er. Is there anything you can't tell Zhu Shijun?"

"So, deliberately pretending to be a powerful minister, abolishing King Hongnong?"

Zhu Jun looked at Liu Bian dumbfounded like a thunderbolt, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty...that is the Ninth Five-Year King, the supreme throne!"

"Heh..." Liu Bian curled his lips in disdain, and said, "It's because of a foolish official like you that I dare not take that seat."

"Big, great king?..."

"Zhu Shijun..." Empress Dowager He took over the conversation and sighed slightly again: "At the beginning, the Ai family also had doubts, but fortunately the Taiwei reminded them, so they were saved from the disaster of killing themselves."

Saying that, without waiting for Zhu Jun to ask back, he took the initiative to attack and said: "Mr. Zhu, the Ai family was short-sighted at the beginning and blindly favored eunuchs. You know about this?"

"Chen, Chen..." How could Zhu Jun not know, and he couldn't help but want to slap her: If you weren't like the first emperor, how could the court be ruled by snakes and rats, and treacherous and sycophant?

"In order to get rid of the eunuchs, the scholar bureaucrats bewitched and provoked the relationship between Ai's family and my brother, and finally killed my brother..."

Speaking of this, Mrs. He showed Qi Rong behind her back, covered her face with her sleeves and continued weeping twice: "After my brother died in vain, they still refused to give up and led their troops directly into the palace."

"It is said that he wants to avenge his brother, but what exactly is his intention, does Zhu Shijun not know?"

As she said that, Empress Dowager He was already crying bitterly, and her delicate body trembled slightly in fear: "They clearly want to drive Aijia and Bian'er to death!"

"Queen Mother!..." Zhu Jun didn't believe it, and said: "The ministers are only angry for a while, how dare they lose their sense of proportion?"

"Heh..." Empress Dowager He had a cold face, and she also curled her lips and sneered, and said: "My brother is a great general in the dynasty, and they are also abandoned like shoes, let alone Aijia and Bian'er?"

Zhu Jun wanted to defend himself again.

Empress Dowager He interrupted again with a wave of her hand, and said coldly: "Okay, even if they won't kill Aijia and Bian'er. But Bian'er is also a brother and nephew, I will wait to avenge this revenge!"

"This?..." Zhu Jun was speechless for a moment.

"Maybe Zhu Shijun will also say that for the sake of the Han Dynasty, my mother and son should endure the humiliation. Good!... The Ai family can take a step back, but don't forget why the scholar-officials killed all the eunuchs. Don't they want to replace them?"

The Empress Dowager He became more and more angry and painful: "At that time, the Ai family will need to assist Bian'er in governing, and they will inevitably confront them tit for tat. The Ai family's mother and son can endure the humiliation, but those scholar-bureaucrats who have tasted the blood will not accept me again. Waiting?"

"If the Taiwei is not allowed to pretend to be a powerful minister, the mother and son of the Ai family will be abolished in advance. Does Zhu Shijun have to look at the mother and son of the Ai family and die at the hands of those people before he will give up!"

Zhu Jun: "..."

It seemed to make sense, but the old man was speechless.

In this way, this Dong thief... is really a loyal minister who is wholeheartedly for the Han Dynasty, has both virtue and strategy, and also bears the notoriety of the world?
