——Dong Zhuo wants to rebel.

How many people said this to Yuan Shao at the beginning, he didn't take it seriously.

Yuan Shao's famous family, in the generation of Yuan Shao's father, there have been two "Three Dukes".His father served as Sikong, and his uncle is now the grand tutor. The Yuan family has accumulated a lot of prestige and has many disciples. How could he take Dong Zhuo, a little Bingzhou shepherd, to heart?

What's more, Dong Zhuo's pretense was really good in the early stage, and he was flattered and flattered, which really made him relax his guard.

Therefore, when Yuan Shao learned of his intention of "moving troops into the city" to seal the letter, his whole body tensed up, and his right hand unconsciously squeezed tightly the letter from the palace, the messy ink marks were so wrinkled that the original words could not be read.

He was careless.

Unknowingly when dark clouds accumulated over Luoyang City, the dark clouds pressed down on the city, and the dull thunder fell far away, accompanied by the humid air, making people upset.

At the same time, in Buguangli and Dingyuan's mansion, there are still feasting and drinking, singing and dancing.

"The pavilion master went south to quell the rebellion at the age of 14, and then went west to attack the Qiang after Jiji. He is really a hero in the world...Come on, do it!"

Qin Chu frowned.

Ding Yuan is indeed a cheerful person, after inviting her to the mansion, he really didn't talk about anything else, he only cared about drinking and enjoying music, even the geisha who performed avoided women, and only picked some handsome men to sing and play.

The only thing is that she is always drinking her wine.

Even though the brewing technology of the Eastern Han Dynasty was quite backward, drinking a dozen cups of rice wine would not be worth half a tael of baijiu of later generations, she was still not happy to drink this turbid wine with a lot of precipitation.

Qin Chu covered his face with his sleeves, and half of the wine was spilled in the Bronze Bar. She drank the other half calmly, and when she raised her eyelids, she met Xun Yu's gentle eyes.

Qin Chu: "..."

Before the court meeting, she appointed Yangzhou Inspector, and by the way, she asked the young emperor to ask Xun Yu to be the governor, so she was able to take him to the banquet in the name of the boss in a fair manner.

This guy looks so handsome and elegant, and at first glance it looks like a flower of the high mountains, but it was only when he was on the table that he realized that it was a huge amount. After drinking with her several times, his face didn't turn red at all, which was really scary.

The so-called ruler is short and inch is good, Qin Chu thinks that he is not good at drinking, so it is not a big deal if he secretly dumps some.

She calmly put the wine bar back on the table, ignored Xun Yu's loving eyes, and started to exchange business with Ding Yuan:

"Ding Bing Prefecture has fought against the Hu people for many years. He is brave and good at fighting, which is beyond the reach of Fu Chu."

Ding Yuan laughed, suddenly patted the seat beside him, and called loudly: "My son Fengxian, sit here!"

Immediately afterwards, Qin Chu saw the tall man at the end of the table leave the table, change positions with a relaxed expression, and sat down next to Ding Yuan.

This man was tall, with broad shoulders and broad back. He was wearing a linen jacket with narrow sleeves.

He probably noticed Qin Chu's gaze, raised his eyelids and glanced back lazily, wishing to engrave the words "no one in sight" on his face.

The system was surprised: "Hey, Qin Chu. Isn't that the man you've been staring at?"

Qin Chu: "That's right, well, he really is that Lu Bu."

The system nodded: "He is really big...Dian Wei is not as big as him."

Qin Chu fell silent."What are you talking about?" she asked.

The system closed its mouth with a wink.

However, it's fine if the system doesn't say anything. Once it said it, Qin Chu's eyes couldn't move away from Lu Bu's chest.

"It's really big." She observed for a moment, nodded secretly, and praised in her heart.

Ding Yuan didn't know her messy thoughts at all, and even patted his big boy on the shoulder, and happily introduced to Qin Chu:

"This is my adopted son, Lv Bulu Fengxian, who is now serving as the chief bookkeeper under my account. I heard that the master of the pavilion is superb in martial arts, and my son is also very brave. If the master of the pavilion is free, he can also compete with him."

Xun Yu glanced at her.

Qin Chu said absent-mindedly, "I'll be sure when I'm free."

Only to hear Ding Yuan say again: "There are still a few fierce generals under a certain command..."

Xun Yu coughed lightly.

Qin Chu didn't hear it, and took a sip of wine slowly, his eyes lingering in front of Lu Bu's half-exposed chest.

"Two people. One is Zhang and the other is Yang..."

Xun Yu whispered, "My lord, my lord—a stranger."

Qin Chu's gaze still wandered.

"The other is Zhang Liao..."

Xun Yu had no choice but to finally lift up his sleeves, and with his index and middle fingers together slightly, he tapped the back of Qin Chu's hand lightly under the cover of the food table.

Only then did Qin Chu come back to his senses, he grasped Xun Yu's two fingers reflexively, shook them slightly before letting go, and said seriously:

"Several of them must be extraordinary people."

Wandering minds return to distracted minds, but political affairs are still the most important.

Although she didn't show any signs, she had some guesses in her heart.

Luoyang City is about to storm, no matter how careless Ding Yuan is, he will not invite her to a banquet at this time, just to "make friends".

Right now, the remnants of He Jin in Luoyang have almost been reorganized. Among them, most of the Central Army controlled by the He family voted for Dong Zhuo, and the rest were used by Yuan Shao.

In addition, only Ding Yuan's Bingzhou Army has not gone yet.

In this case, Ding Yuan's own inclination is crucial.

Whether it is to seek refuge with Yuan Shao or express goodwill towards Dong Zhuo, the situation in the court will fluctuate because of this. Therefore, no matter whether it is lure or coercion, both parties have probably hinted to Ding Yuan.

However, at this time, not only did he not make a decision, but he even entertained Qin Chu in the mansion——

That is the third possibility.

This "third possibility" is most likely not that he wants to be a third-party force. After all, "mantises catch cicadas, and orioles are behind" applies to all fields. If he strives for power, the best way is to join the weaker side and watch Both Yuan and Dong were injured in the fight, and it would be right to step on them and jump to a high place.

But he didn't.

Reminiscent of Ding Yuan recorded in the history books, when he heard that Dong Zhuo wanted to abolish the young emperor and set up the king of Chenliu, he left the meeting angrily. The next day, he went to fight with Dong Zhuo outside the city. About the same as Huangfusong, he is a pure minister.

The so-called pure ministers are "subjects of the emperor", people who are devoted to the Han Dynasty.

Sure enough, halfway through the banquet, Ding Yuan saw that she had no reaction to the matter of the barracks, so he finally spoke:

"The master of the pavilion is extraordinary, and Ding also intends to form an alliance with you to fight against the rebellion.

The owner of the pavilion is a loyal person, but Dong Zhongying squeezed him out here - if you want to make trouble, you can send two people to lead troops to help. "

Qin Chu remained silent.

Ding Yuan has no advisors around him, and his subordinates are all powerful generals. This statement is too straightforward, and it should be what he wanted to say.

She looked away calmly, only to see that Lu Bu beside him remained motionless, and even poured another glass of wine, probably already knowing what his adoptive father was thinking.

Ding Yuan really hated traitors, but this way was to put her on fire.

"Ding Bingzhou was joking," she sighed. "The imperial edict was issued by His Majesty. How can Fu Chu be dissatisfied? Dong Zhuo is so powerful that even Yuan Benchu ​​wants to avoid his edge. How dare I mention 'juggling'?"

"boom--"

The last muffled thunder fell in a daze, and then a lightning bolt struck from the Mang Mountain, piercing the sky suddenly, and the lightning flashed quickly, illuminating the entire Luoyang city in an instant.

Yongheli, Yuan Mansion.

"My lord, Captain Cao is here to see you!"

Yuan Shao's hand holding the Zihao wooden pen froze, then put it down quickly, and stood up with a swipe. Regardless of the strong wind outside, he put on his outer robe while walking, and strode towards the door.

Cao Cao followed behind with [-] Xiyuan troops. Seeing that the sky was getting darker, he clicked his tongue a little anxiously, looking at the empty gate of Yuan Mansion, his heart was in a mess.

"Meng De, what's the matter?"

Yuan Shao came out with a sullen face, and saw the army behind him at a glance, his face changed slightly, and he barely held back his expression.

"I just made a request to His Majesty yesterday, and today I brought the soldiers to the city." Cao Cao changed his armor, held his sword with his right hand, and his face was so dark.

Yuan Shao knew who he was talking about.When He Jin summoned Dong Zhuo to Beijing, Cao Cao tried to dissuade him, but no one cared about it at that time. He didn't expect that Dong Zhuo was so bold that even the emperor dared to rebel.

"These are the only soldiers I can mobilize. At first, I couldn't let him enter the city, otherwise the beast would be even more lawless!"

"Go and prepare the horses," Yuan Shao quickly ordered his servants, and then turned his head to Cao Cao and said, "Go to the city gate to watch first. I'll go to the West Garden to lead the troops, and I'll be there later."

Cao Cao frowned: "Dong Zhuo has a lot of soldiers and horses. If you and my army add up, I'm afraid..."

"Where's Ding Yuan?" Yuan Shao interrupted him impatiently, "The reason why the general called him to Beijing was to eradicate traitors. Dong Zhongying is here, why is he pretending to be dead? Let him Let's go together."

Cao Cao opened his mouth, and wanted to say something again, but just uttered "Wuyang Pavilion...", Yuan Shao cut him off before he finished speaking:

"The situation is urgent, don't talk too much, go quickly."

Cao Cao quickly understood what he meant, and frowned slightly, only seeing Yuan Shao's twinkling eyes.

Yuan Shao deliberately ignored Qin Chu, who was in a similar situation, but out of fear.

Ding Yuan came from a poor family, a reckless man, not worth mentioning except for being useful on the battlefield, but Qin Chu was different.

No matter how well she behaved, with the example of Dong Zhuo, he still hesitated.

Even if he admired her at first, he was unwilling to give Qin Chu a chance—this woman has a high family background, most of her subordinates are elite soldiers, and she has the ability to protect her. Even if her gender is easy to be criticized, it is because she is famous Too early to tell.

No matter how much Dong Zhuo flaunted his power, he came from a poor family after all, so even if he entered the imperial court, he would not get much support. The seemingly huge advantage now is only because he holds the military power in his hand.

In contrast, Qin Chu was on the same path as him - if she were really allowed to go to the battlefield to defeat Dong Zhuo, she would only become a more difficult opponent.

Yuan Shao was unwilling to take any risks.

He is a child of a family, he is more of a "noble" than a "subject", and he is used to thinking about interests, especially the interests of the family.

For him, even if Dong Zhuo broke into the city, the Yuan family might not be unable to deal with him through other means... But Qin Chu couldn't.She is an aristocrat with the support of the Fu family behind her. Once the dragon rises up, it will not be able to return to the bottom of the water.

Yuan Shao closed his eyes, took the saber handed over by the servant, and inserted it into his belt without saying a word, with no fluctuation in his tone, he urged again:

"Go, Mengde. First go to Buguangli to find Ding Yuan."

"..."

Cao Cao finally listened to his words, stopped talking, and rode on the horse silently in the light rain. Before leaving, he turned his head and took a deep look at his boyhood friend.

—is now an arrogant and indifferent politician.
