Lu Dynasty

Chapter 235 Cruelty
Dong Zhuo ordered Li Ru to summon all the officials in the name of a banquet, and then asked Lv Bu to capture and kill Zhang Wen in public to let the officials know his power as Dong Zhuo.Lu Bu asked, "Does my elder brother need to be there?"

Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "We don't use Ba Xian, it would be nice if it scares him! I want to let those aristocratic families know how powerful they are, and who is the real master in Chang'an City!" Lu Bu went down after listening to Dong Zhuo's words get ready.

The next day, when the civil and military officials heard that Dong Zhuo was hosting a banquet, who would dare not come?So they all gathered at Dong Zhuo's mansion.After Dong Zhuo arranged for everyone to sit down, he ordered the maid to serve the food and wine.Baiguan looked at the kind Dong Zhuo, not knowing what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, so he ate vegetables and drank quietly.Originally, Old Dong was planning to scare the chickens to scare the monkeys. Seeing that the officials were afraid of him, he was too happy to think about other things.

Dong Zhuo watched the time pass for quite a while, so he said to the officials: "I invite everyone to come today. I invite you to watch a good show. I don't know what you think?"

Wang Yun stood up and said: "The prime minister has a taste for elegance, how can we refuse!"

Dong Zhuo squinted his eyes and took a look at Wang Yun, then clapped his hands, and a hundred soldiers rushed in from outside the door, scaring all the civil and military officials to turn pale with fright.Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "Don't be alarmed, everyone! These soldiers are here to prepare for the show!" All the officials saw that these soldiers had set up several wooden cross-like things in the courtyard, and there were a few of them. The big tripod used by Hu people to cook whole sheep!
Looking at this scene, Wang Yun understood what Dong Zhuo wanted to do. Among the foreign tribes like Xiongnu and Wuhuan, it was not uncommon to see traitors boiled alive, but he, Wang Yun, did not dare to have any opinions.In fact, Wang Yun was very afraid of death. Even when Li Jue and Guo Si attacked Chang'an in the end, people like Wang Yun would not have the idea of ​​suicide.The real record of Wang Yun's fate in history is: the emperor bound Situ to the front of the battle!That is to say, he, Wang Yun, was bound by Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and handed over to Li Jue and Guo Si!This behavior of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty also completely transformed the last loyal minister of the Han Dynasty into a hero!
Dong Zhuo nodded to Lu Bu, and Lu Bu dragged Zhang Wen in.Dong Zhuo took out the letter that Yuan Shu mistakenly dropped on me and said: "Since I came to Beijing, I, Dong Zhuo, have managed the court conscientiously. If there is no credit, there must be hard work! The princes of the Kanto who are ignorant of current affairs insulted me in every possible way. Some of you dare Conspired to kill me! Look! Zhang Wen dared to collude with Yuan Shu to assassinate me. Fortunately, I am so lucky that this letter was mistakenly dropped by Yuan Shu's people in Lu Bu's residence!" Dong Zhuo said. Throwing it on the ground shouted: "Feng Xian!"

Hearing Dong Zhuo calling him, Lu Bu chopped off Zhang Wen's head with a knife in his hand, and the blood spurting from Zhang Wen's neck was poured into a big urn by the soldiers beside him.Baiguan didn't know what Dong Zhuo wanted to do, and looked at Dong Zhuo in panic.Dong Zhuo was very satisfied with the effect, so he ordered Zhang Wen's blood to be poured into the prepared wine and said, "I wish these traitors could eat their flesh and lay bare their skin! I think everyone is the same as me." !"

The officials saw that Dong Zhuo had killed Zhang Wen, they didn't have the blood of Ding Yuan and Lu Zhi, they dared to have any objection to Dong Zhuo, so they quickly nodded in agreement!Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "Since everyone has the same thoughts as me, let's have a drink together, and let those traitors with evil intentions know the fate of their betrayal! Come and pour wine for you!"

The maids who were pouring wine for the officials had already left, otherwise the screams of those maids would have knocked over the roof when they saw such a scene.A group of Xiliang soldiers who were like wolves and tigers served each official with a full glass of blood wine. Their actions were a little rough, and even the table was splashed with blood.Baiguan held up the blood wine tremblingly, looked at the bright red in the glass, and then looked at Dong Zhuo's ferocious face, hesitating whether to drink the glass of wine.

Seeing the hesitation of the officials, Dong Zhuo smiled and said: "It seems that you think drinking like this is quite boring, don't you? It's okay, I have prepared several big shows for you, please watch it! Let me first!"

Lu Bu ordered his soldiers to pull out dozens of men and women and said, "This is the family of the prisoner Zhang Wen. Naturally, they are guilty of the same crime as the criminal! Come here! Sentence!" On the cross in the atrium, pour oil or water into the tripod respectively.

After the oil boiled, Dong Zhuo smiled and said, "Everyone, please watch carefully!" As soon as Dong Zhuo finished speaking, he saw the soldiers standing beside him cut Zhang Wen's family members with sharp knives.The wailing and groaning of Zhang Wen's family spread throughout Dong Zhuo's mansion. All the officials turned pale with shock when they heard the groaning and wailing, only Dong Zhuo remained expressionless.

The blood flowed all over the ground, and the bloody smell made the officials who had never experienced the bloody slaughter vomit continuously, even Wang Yun was trying to suppress the vomit that rolled in his chest.Dong Zhuo said: "Everyone, do you feel that the dishes of this old man are not delicious enough today? I heard that the meat of young children and women is the most delicious. Why don't you all taste the flesh and blood of Zhang Wen, a traitor family with me? Let go of your resentment towards the traitor in my heart!"

As soon as Dong Zhuo finished speaking, some soldiers pulled up some children and girls.Lu Bu laughed and said, "These are Zhang Wen's children, all of whom are still underage!" Lu Bu touched the face of one of Zhang Wen's daughters with a ferocious smile and said, "Absolutely tender, everyone is lucky today!" Lu Bu is the kind of person who gets excited when he hears a murder, he doesn't care about men, women, old or weak.After finishing speaking, Lu Bu ordered the soldiers on the side to throw these boys and girls into the boiling water oil pan, and a smell of meat immediately permeated.

After a while, Dong Zhuo made people pick up the meat from the pot and distributed it to all the officials, saying: "Now that the wine and meat are all served, and the good show has been seen, everyone come and taste the wine and dishes that the old man prepared for you today. It suits everyone's taste!" Dong Zhuo drank the blood wine in the glass in one gulp, picked up a piece of human flesh and began to chew.In the hall, only the sound of boiling water in the oil pan and Dong Zhuo's crunching and chewing can be heard!

Civil and military officials are not Dong Zhuo, they never thought about drinking human blood and eating human flesh, let alone doing it!Dong Zhuo saw that the officials were not doing anything, so he said grimly: "I, Dong Zhuo, hate traitors the most, so I eat their flesh and drink their blood for Zhang Wen. It seems that everyone is not the same enemy as Dong Zhuo, that is to say, You and that Wen Nai are accomplices, aren't you?" Dong Zhuo licked his blood-stained lips while speaking.

Wang Yun looked at Dong Zhuo's white teeth, and said in a trembling voice, "Prime Minister, don't blame me, I... I've been a vegetarian recently!"

Dong Zhuo heard someone answer, turned his head to stare at Wang Yun and said, "Who owns the Seven Star Saber in Cao's hand, do you really think I don't know?"

Wang Yun swallowed his saliva after listening to Dong Zhuo's words. He suddenly felt a little thirsty, so he drank the blood wine and said, "What seven-star knife, I still have my seven-star knife at home! I have the same hatred as the prime minister. I will conspire with those people! Since the Prime Minister is suspicious, I will make an exception!" Wang Yun picked up a piece of meat and looked at it for a while, then gritted his teeth and stuffed it into his mouth.
