I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 226 Relics
As Liu Jian expected, Dong Zhuo's envoy arrived less than two hours after Yuan Ji's envoy left.

This time it was not Li Jue, but Guo Si, another confidant of Dong Zhuo.

And what's interesting is that this time, it was still the deputy envoy, Jia Xu, who came with Guo Si.

The chief envoy has changed, and the deputy envoy is still the same deputy envoy.

Guo Si expressed Dong Zhuo's greetings to Liu Jian, and at the same time asked Liu Jian how Liu Jian considered the proposal Dong Zhuo gave Liu Jian last time.

Liu Jian went straight to the point, and said to Guo Si: "Dong Gong's sincerity really moved Jian, but now that a big event is about to happen in Luoyang City, someone contacted Liu, saying that Dong Gong is a treacherous minister who is a great evil in the dynasty and will cause harm to the world. , Let me raise troops to fight against it, now Liu is in a dilemma, I don't know what Dong Gong should teach me?"

Guo Si was shocked when he heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Dong Gong came all the way from Xizhou, King Qin rescued him, he made great contributions, he has made great contributions to the country and the people, who is so vicious, dare to slander Dong Gong with this word! Cut to pieces!"

Liu Jian smiled lightly and didn't answer, but turned to look at Jia Xu who was at the side, and asked, "Vice Envoy Jia, what's your opinion?"

Jia Xu bowed his hands to Liu Jian and said: "Dong Gong and Liu Shijun have always known each other. My Dong Gong sincerely invites you to seek cooperation with the envoy. This sincere heart is more sincere than some elite family members. A lot."

Liu Jian said with a half-smile: "The problem is, these valet gates never wanted to move, but Mr. Dong forced them to do so. Whenever they moved, I was made to feel uncomfortable. What do you think Mr. Dong will do about this matter?" I have an explanation?"

Guo Si said: "It is the Yuan family who want Liu Shijun to reunite with Ding Yuan and Zhang Yi to attack Dong Sikong, right? Liu Shijun is a wise man, so we must not fall for their provocative words."

"But if Dong Gong is not behind the operation, I don't believe that the Yuan family will act rashly! The Yuan family has such a deep foundation, if it is not extremely angry, it will definitely not take action easily."

Guo Si hurriedly said: "Mr. Liu, don't get me wrong. Mr. Dong is upright, but not as what Mr. Shi thinks in his heart."

Liu Jian didn't reply, just looked at him with a little sarcasm.

Jia Xu sighed lightly.

Now that things are up to now, I'm afraid it won't make much sense to hide it any more.

Liu Jian and Dong Zhuo didn't know each other for a day or two, and they knew each other quite well. It was reasonable that Dong Zhuo's behavior could not be hidden from him.

Jia Xu said: "No matter what Dong Gong has done, his original intention is to repair with the envoy and help the Han Dynasty together. Please let the envoy know this."

Guo Bang's expression became a little awkward, and he could only nod in response: "That's right, that's right."

Liu Jian glanced back and forth at the two people in front of him, and said: "To be honest, I really don't want to be enemies with Dong Gong, but I also don't want to be enemies with Yuan's family. As a clan member of the Han family, Liu will only be loyal to His Majesty , Whoever is His Majesty's loyal minister, Liu will be kind to whoever, please tell Mr. Dong about this, and cooperate with me, this is the bottom line."

Guo Si seemed a little hesitant when he heard the words, but he heard Jia Xu say: "It's possible."

"The next day, if Ding Yuan and Zhang Yi really send troops to Luoyang, I will also send troops to follow. Call back."

Guo Si was furious when he heard this.

What is this?

We promised to be good friends with Dong Zhuo, but we still have to be associated with those members of the Yuan family on the surface. Isn't this fooling us for fools?

Be human on the left, and be human on the right, it's up to you!
This is the first time I heard that there is such a union in the world!
Guo Si's face was gloomy and quite displeased, but Jia Xu didn't change his expression.

He just asked back: "Liu Shijun, if you were in Dong Gong's position, would you agree to this request?"

Liu Jian shook his head and said, "I won't agree!"

Jia Xu was taken aback when he heard this.

He really didn't expect that Liu Jian would give himself such an answer.

"Then why..."

Liu Jian said with a smile: "I have another thing in my hand. If Mr. Dong is interested, I would like to give this item as a gift. I just hope Mr. Dong can agree to my request, that's all."

After Guo Si and Jia Xu returned to Luoyang, they went to see Dong Zhuo overnight and conveyed Liu Jian's words to him.

"A letter between the various prefectures reading Wangmen and Zhang Jiao?!"

Dong Zhuo got up suddenly when he heard the words, and stomped back and forth in the hall, with a shocked and excited expression on his face.

"If you have these things in your hand, if you want to control Luoyang, or punish the rebellious and disobedient people in the court, it will be justified!"

It has to be said that those letters secretly communicated between the Fanyue family and Zhang Jiao are indeed very important to Dong Zhuo at this juncture.

In addition to the inheritance of Confucian classics, the most important thing about the gates of the gentry is to hide their shame from the world.

Although the procuratorial system has been corrupted fundamentally, it still pursues a "filial piety" and an "integrity" on the bright side.

What is the greatest filial piety?
It is loyalty to the emperor!

And these words that reflect the most noble character of human nature have been flaunted by the nobles from generation to generation.

Don't do personnel affairs in secret, but some things must never be brought to the surface. Once the things in the dark corners are brought to the surface, the reputation and reputation accumulated over hundreds of years, or even hundreds of years, may be destroyed. It will be destroyed in an instant.

The Yellow Turban Uprising is undoubtedly the largest and most influential uprising since the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Although anyone with a discerning eye knows that Zhang Jiao was able to achieve the linkage of the eight states when he raised his army, he must have received the support of the well-dressed men from each state, but there is no evidence after all. Besides, the emperor still wants to use scholars to govern the country, and after Zhang Jiao's uprising, for The impact of the aristocratic family is indeed very large.

Therefore, there are some things that everyone did not bring to the surface.

But it didn't come out to the public, which doesn't mean it's over. Nowadays, there are still yellow scarves around the states in the Han Dynasty.

Especially in Qingzhou and Xuzhou, I heard that there have been large-scale yellow scarf rebellions recently.

If Dong Zhuo can get this big card at this moment...

"Promise him!"

After all, Dong Zhuo is a rare hero who is rarely seen in ten years. After weighing the pros and cons, he immediately issued an order to Guo Bang.

Guo Bang has lived in Liangzhou all year round, and he still knows too little about the political struggle between the court and China. He was very puzzled when he heard this.

"Sikong, are you pampering that Liu Jian too much?" Guo Si asked angrily.

Dong Zhuo waved his hands with a smile, and said: "At this time, we should indulge or indulge a little... Liu Jian can say, how can he agree to the old man's request?"

Guo Bang cupped his hands at Dong Zhuo with a displeased expression: "Liu Jian said that if Sikong wants to show his sincerity, he only needs to send the General Zuo's seal to his camp. After the thing that Liu Jian promised to Sikong arrives, he can formally do it." That's it for the seal."

Dong Zhuo nodded slowly, then suddenly looked at Jia Xu: "What do you think of Wen He?"

However, Jia Xu said: "Sikong, the last official has been thinking about this matter carefully. It is really a dilemma. A few days ago, Li Ru, a doctor who surrendered to Sikong's command, seems to be quite capable and far-reaching. Sikong may as well How about asking him to test this person?"

Dong Zhuo immediately nodded and said, "Come on, call Li Ru over here!"

Not much to say, a rather handsome middle-aged scribe came before Dong Zhuo.

This person is Li Ru, who holds a doctoral degree in Taixue. Due to some special reasons, he has not been able to discuss politics so far.

After Jia Xu's investigation, he found that this man had far-reaching knowledge and high resourcefulness, which was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

So this person was recommended to Dong Zhuo.

Of course it was recommended in the name of Niu Fu, not Jia Xu.

Therefore, the people Li Ru is very grateful to now are Niu Fu and Dong Zhuo.

"The last official Li Ru paid a visit to Sikong."

Dong Zhuo nodded and said: "Li Wenyou, now I have something to ask you. This can be said to be a test for you. Listen carefully."

Li Ru immediately listened attentively.

After listening, Li Rusui said: "This matter has advantages and disadvantages, it depends on how Sikong chooses."
