Three Kingdoms Mythology World.

"My lord, didn't you say before that we couldn't deal with Lin Mu? Why did you change your mind?" A handsome general with a firm face asked in a deep voice among the generals.

"Zhongming, things have changed. Moreover, this time the cause and effect grafting is not to deal with him directly, so it's okay." Li Ru explained for Dong Zhuo.

The person who asked the question was named Duan Wei, courtesy name Zhongming, from Wuwei. He was the younger brother of Duan Jiong, the Grand Commandant of the Eastern Han Dynasty and Marquis of Xinfeng County.

Duan Xing had great prestige in Liang Province, and even Dong Zhuo was wary of him. Being able to recruit Duan Wei under his command was a huge improvement, and he gained some prestige support from the Duan family.

This is also one of the reasons why Dong Zhuo was able to recruit so many powerful generals in Liang Province.

In order to stabilize Duan Wei, Dong Zhuo rarely let him go to the front line to ensure his safety.

"Cause and effect grafting?" Duan Wei frowned, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

"We found the formation that the late emperor used to graft cause and effect karma onto Lin Mu." Li Ru said dimly.

Liu Hong, who values ​​Lin Mu the most and trusts Lin Mu the most, was actually plotting against Lin Mu behind his back. If Lin Mu was not lucky enough, he might have been killed directly and there would be no possibility of resurrection.

However, it is ironic that Lin Mu still works hard for the precarious Han Dynasty.

"This formation already has the aura of Lin Mu. Its cause and effect have nothing to do with us. Even if we don't conceal the secret, we will be blamed." Dong Zhuo said in a muffled voice.

"I will be in charge then and introduce some of the cause and effect into the formation." Li Ru added.

Zhang Ji, who was below, heard this and sighed quietly. He and Xu Rong were good friends, and it was Lin Mu who saved Xu Rong's life, which was a great favor. Moreover, it seemed that Lin Mu and the lord were not completely hostile forces, and their cooperation was quite pleasant. Now that he turned to deal with Lin Mu, he was a little hesitant. I think Xu Rong would be the same if he was here.

However, neither Zhang Ji nor Xu Rong would do such a thing as informing Lin Mu.

"My lord, how about I use another strategy?" Li Ru said with a faint smile.

"Oh...what about He Yangmou?" Dong Zhuo asked.

"Didn't Ding Yuan capture Chen Lin and others... and Lin Mu had asked strangers to look for them before, so we might as well go with the flow..." Li Ru said dimly.

"Oh...interesting, interesting!!!" Dong Zhuo thought about it after hearing it, and immediately figured out the key.

"You are worthy of being my right-hand man." Dong Zhuo laughed loudly, very satisfied with the plan.

After laughing for a while, Dong Zhuo calmed down and changed the subject, asking, "Wen You, how is Yi Ren's preparation going?"

"All the aliens who followed us into Luoyang have joined the mission."

"Liu Feng, Zhu Xuan, Jiang Chenglong, Xuanyuan Changying and other outstanding aliens in the group have also joined in person, and brought a number of soldiers with them." Li Ru reported with a calm smile.

"Speed ​​up. In five days, the defense at the Temple of Heaven... will disappear." Dong Zhuo said meaningfully.

Five days later, it’s time to slay the dragon!

"My lord, the alien group is very special. They are protected by heaven and earth and can be resurrected many times. Is it a problem that we have completely offended them this time?" Duan Wei paused and asked again.

"They are all rootless duckweed. They often fight and waste their energy among themselves. They are greedy and arrogant. It's okay, it's okay." Dong Zhuo waved his hand and said calmly.

His attitude towards strangers is very clear: he looks down on strangers, and they are equivalent to the lower-class people, who will work like slaves for them all their lives.

When Duan Wei heard what Dong Zhuo said, he did not refute it.

Right or wrong, let time prove it.

After some more discussion, the meeting ended and everyone dispersed.

……

Did Lin Mu leave the capital?
He really left.

He used the Kun Stone to return directly to the Shenlong Valley, put away some important items, and after completing his daily tasks, he left the valley without stopping and went to Shouchun City, the capital of Yangzhou.

The General Wei's Mansion will be rebuilt here.

Establishing a government office here was not only to provide a spiritual command post for his subordinates, but also to intimidate the powerful families in Jiangdong.

All military power in the counties and prefectures of Yangzhou has fallen into the hands of the Great Wilderness Territory. Political affairs are basically under its full control as well, but there are still some places controlled by those big families, and their influence is also considerable.

In the future, when implementing new policies, these people will definitely not be avoided. The establishment of the General Wei Mansion in Shouchun will make those people think twice before doing anything.

Of course, this also means that General Lin will officially begin his fight for world dominance from here on, and command the whole country.

While he was busy with the reconstruction, he received a message from someone.

"We couldn't find Yeyingdi, nor Xuying, so how did he fall into Dong Zhuo's hands?" Lin Mu's face suddenly changed after reading the message.

"There may be many secrets hidden in the palace." Lin Mu murmured.

He thought of the situations of Wang Yue, Shi A and others, as well as the situations of the imperial garden and the national treasury, and felt that the palace was more mysterious than he had imagined.

"Dong Zhuo's real conspiracy is to take over the karma of slaughtering the Red Dragon, the pillar of the Han Dynasty. So that's his plan... Even Dong Zhuo doesn't dare to bear that horrible karma alone."

"I didn't want to disrupt your plan, but since you have targeted me, I would be sorry for your enthusiasm towards me if you don't get hurt a little." Lin Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, with a murderous look on his face.

He left Luoyang so decisively, not because he was afraid of Dong Zhuo, but because he didn't want to be involved in too many karmas. At the same time, he didn't want to suddenly receive any dying entrustment after the Red Dragon was slaughtered...

At this moment, the pages of the Qiankun Zimu book in his arms began to vibrate.

Lin Mu took it out and looked at it, his eyebrows slightly raised: "It seems that fate has asked me to get involved..."

"This news was probably leaked by Li Ru!"

"This is a conspiracy."

"Ding Yuan's death in this Luoyang riot will definitely implicate many people. Chen Lin and his men are not as calm as Gao Shun, so they will have to take risks."

"If I can use this conspiracy to get them out safely, it may help me recruit historical talents in the future." Lin Mu also has a long-term vision and knows that this move is dangerous, but also beneficial.

"I originally wanted to wait for you to destroy the national pillar and depose the emperor before coming back, but I didn't expect you to call me back again, haha..." Lin Mu sneered. This time when he returned to the capital Luoyang, he would not be upright, but be a sixth-rank player...

"Five days left..."

Lin Mu muttered softly and continued to arrange the affairs of General Wei's residence.

General Wei's Mansion was not built inside the Shouchun City Lord's Mansion, but on the opposite side.

This was once... a mansion of the Yuan family.

In order to occupy this place, the Dahuang Territory once again caused trouble and forced the Yuan family to give up this place without even giving any compensation.

Lin Mu was not very clear about the specific circumstances, but it was definitely Guo Jia who did it.

It took two days, and after Wang Can and others came to help, the mansion was basically decorated.

After all, Shouchun City cannot compare with the divine capital Luoyang, whether in terms of economy, culture, or even the concentration of spiritual energy.

This will not hinder Lin Mu's plan to use this place as his base in the future.

Shouchun City is in a very critical location. To its northwest is Yuzhou and to its northeast is Xuzhou, so it is relatively not too far away.

The fact that Lin Mu established the General Wei’s Mansion here also represented his determination - his determination to expand towards Yuzhou and Xuzhou!
After finishing his business and taking over a few items that Cui Wu brought from Xu Yuan, late at night, Lin Mu slowly used the Kun Stone, and after a flash, he returned to the General Wei's Mansion in the Divine Capital Luoyang.

At this moment, the General Wei's Mansion has been rebuilt. After all, this is the main residence of the Han Dynasty, and it involves the reputation of the Liu family, so it cannot be really abandoned.

Moreover, every inch of land in the sacred capital Luoyang is extremely valuable and cannot be wasted.

Sensing that there were already people guarding the mansion, Lin Mu left the mansion under the cover of night.

On the second night after Lin Mu returned to the sacred city of Luoyang, he sat in the Huanghua Inn with a puzzled look on his face.

"Strange, why are Ding Yuan and his men so low-key... and they don't even see any guests. Did he really reach some kind of agreement with Dong Zhuo?"

"Ding Yuan is a very evil guy in secret... Pushing Dong Zhuo to slay the dragon and shackle him on the fire, whether he succeeds or not, will not harm him, Ding Yuan."

"If it is possible, maybe we can use the Red Dragon to kill Dong Zhuo..."

"The waters of Luoyang are really too deep. Even if you are a life-and-death enemy one second, you can instantly become a partner for the sake of profit the next second. It's really... ironic..."

"Dong Zhuo was slaying the dragon. Apart from Ding Yuan who stood by and watched, the Yuan family and other great noble families might have also done the same, and they might have secretly funded Dong Zhuo..."

"Thinking about it this way, the Red Dragon is really being targeted by all forces, except the Liu family and those Zhonghan families that were excluded... The Red Dragon is blocking the way of some people..." Lin Mu combined Ding Yuan's reaction today and figured out the real key point.

"It seems that we can no longer sow discord between Ding Yuan, Yuan Shao and other forces..."

"The Red Dragon is doomed... Perhaps, this is the last tragic moment in its life..." Lin Mu sighed softly.

After some deduction, he realized that this was the Red Dragon's fate!

"Waiter, come in!" Lin Mu called out in a low voice.

There was a sound of footsteps outside immediately.

After a while, a waiter opened the door and came in.

"What can I do for you, sir?" the waiter asked cleverly.

"How's the inn's business recently?" Lin Mu asked casually.

"It was very popular before, but in the past two days, I don't know why, it suddenly became deserted." The young man responded immediately without hiding anything.

"Oh... okay, you can go." Lin Mu threw a gold coin to the boy and sent him away.

Lin Mu concluded from the boy's words that the players' dragon-slaying operation had already begun.

Now many players are flocking towards the city area of ​​the Temple of Heaven.

Lin Mu thought for a moment, and the figure of Gongsun Zan appeared in his mind.

After pondering for a while, he finally sighed: "Forget it, I won't bother him..."

He wanted to visit Ding Yuan because he wanted to rescue Chen Lin and others from Ding Yuan without bloodshed.

That’s right, the news Lin Mu received was that Chen Lin and others were under house arrest by Ding Yuan.

Wu Kuang and others did not follow Dong Zhuo to join Dong Min as Dong Min had expected. For some unknown reason, they changed their minds and took most of their troops and forced Chen Lin and others to join Ding Yuan.

That’s why we have the situation today.

"I hope this isn't my fate..." Lin Mu murmured.

This time he came to Luoyang secretly without discussing it with Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai and others.

Even Dian Wei, Huang Zhong and others were not brought with them.

Dian Wei was stripped of his posts as Inspector of the Imperial Guards and Chief Priest of the Imperial Guards by Empress Dowager He, and was appointed as the fourth-rank Garrison General and left Luoyang, his destination still being Bingzhou.

Bingzhou was invaded by foreign tribes many times because Ding Yuan, Lu Bu and others were no longer guarding it. Border officials repeatedly petitioned for assistance, so Dian Wei was sent back to Bingzhou to guard it...

The position of a fourth-rank garrison general is not low. Going one step further is like the position of General Zhengdong that Lin Mu had held before, which is the same level as [Si Ping Si An].

Dian Wei's position was not the result of the efforts of the Great Wilderness Territory, but a change of chance, which was an unexpected surprise.

Dian Wei was originally from the Great Wilderness Territory. In fact, when selecting the imperial guards, he could use some tricks to arrange for the elite troops from the Great Wilderness Territory to join.

But Lin Mu did not let Dian Wei do so. The reason was that after Dong Zhuo slayed the dragon, he took control of the palace. The guards had only two choices: surrender or death.

He didn't want the elite troops of the Great Wilderness Territory to be killed once, and as for surrendering to Dong Zhuo and becoming an undercover agent, that was even more impossible. A large number of soldiers would definitely be able to detect their attributes. (End of this chapter)
