"In the imperial edict, my father-in-law was ordered to take only 5000 military horses to the north. Obviously, he was not at ease with his father-in-law. We should know that Luoyang alone has tens of thousands of troops and horses. Even if the father-in-law really makes a disturbance, it is impossible to capture Luoyang in a short time. Besides, the prefectures and prefectures must send troops to serve the king." Li Ru said slowly.
Dong Zhuo frowned: "Your Majesty can't think that someone is going to make trouble, but why don't you let someone take away the soldiers?"
Li Ru's eyes flashed a light: "Your Majesty is not afraid of his father-in-law's rebellion, but his father-in-law's army, which will become a huge weight at the critical moment."
"Oh?" Dong Zhuo came to be interested: "which balance is your majesty worried about
Li Ru smiled and said, "son-in-law has bought several eyeliner to catch up with the news of the DPRK, and has just bought several news recently."
Dong Zhuo's broad body leans forward slightly and says with great interest: "Wen you, let's listen."
"Has your father-in-law heard of the dispute over the establishment of the crown prince?"
Hearing Li Ru's words, Dong Zhuo nodded.
"This is natural. Empress he's brother is general He Jin. They are committed to supporting the emperor's eldest son, while his majesty loves his younger son. However, Liu Bian seems to be only ten years old. Naturally, Chen Liuwang doesn't have to say much about it."
Although there was no one around, Li Ru lowered his voice.
"Father in law, your majesty is critically ill. I'm afraid he is dying."
"What?" Dong Zhuo was surprised, all the things in his mind seemed to be connected in a moment, only the last flash.
Li Ru said slowly, "Your Majesty is afraid that the general will join hands with his father-in-law."
No wonder he Jin has always come to win over himself these days, offering gold, silver and jewelry, and promising to join the ranks in the future. So it is!
"My father-in-law, Liangzhou and Bingzhou are both desolate places. The imperial capital of Luoyang is the real prosperous place. I and other northern men can't live in Bingzhou for a lifetime." Li Ru sneered.
Dong Zhuo also nodded: "yes, from the dragon in front of you, how can you easily let go?"
"Don't you just wait for me?" he said
Li Ru smiles: "my son-in-law has a plan."
Dong Zhuo was overjoyed: "Wen Youxiu should hide it. Come on quickly."
"My father-in-law can write back a letter, saying that his father-in-law has been in charge of the army for more than ten years, and the soldiers are of one mind and ask to go to Bingzhou to guard the border with all the troops and horses." Li Ru said slowly. As long as we firmly hold the troops and horses in our hands, everything can be done. And this letter will be more than a month. I'm afraid that the body of the spirit emperor will not be able to support by then.
Dong Zhuo nodded and couldn't wait to say, "Wenyou, I'll leave this matter to you. By the way, let niufu lead 5000 soldiers to stay in Anyi and observe Luoyang at any time."
Li Zhuo's only son-in-law, Li Zhibing, is more important than his son-in-law in the war.
However, compared with Li Ru, Niu Fu, the second son-in-law, is not very reassuring. This boy is really incompetent, but he is his son-in-law. Dong Zhuo can't help but take care of him.
Come on, you lead the troops to stay in Anyi and prepare to be an outpost. Don't let Li Xuan and others look down on you.
Li Ru nodded and respectfully said, "my son-in-law, I will go down and do it."
Li Ru went back to the mansion, picked up the brush, conceived for a long time, and finally completed a reply. First, he expressed his gratitude to the Emperor Ling for his trust. Then he said that Dong Zhuo had a good relationship with the generals and soldiers. Finally, he asked politely whether he could take all the soldiers to Bingzhou.
After finishing this masterpiece, Li Ru immediately recruited two domestic servants.
"Li Fu, you ride fast to Luoyang and present this letter to your majesty."
"Li Cai, you go to Niu Zhonglang's house and give him this letter."
"Yes, sir." The two men agreed in unison and went out of the mansion. One went to Luoyang City and the other went to the military camp outside the city. Niu Fu, as a general, naturally wanted to stay in the camp.
"Niu Zhonglang, a letter from Mr. Li."
Niu Fu, with a square face and a simple and honest face, nodded and quickly took the letter from her brother-in-law.
"Wenhe, Wenhe, this is Mr. Wenyou's letter. Please help some counsellor one or two."
Niu Fu called out to the tent. A tall, calm faced scribe stepped out slowly and saluted Niu Fu slightly. Then he took the letter.
After reading about it, Jia Xu said to Niu without changing his face: "Niu Zhonglang, in Mr. Wen you's letter, he asked Niu Zhonglang to lead 5000 soldiers from the camp. He quickly went to Anyi to take over military power and stationed in Anyi."
Niu Fu scratched his scalp with some puzzlement: "Anyi? Didn't your majesty appoint your father-in-law to be the herdsman of Bingzhou? Why should we stay in Anyi? "
Anyi is a county of Hedong County, and Hedong county is under the jurisdiction of the Xiaowei Department of Sili county. Dong Zhuo was granted the title of Bingzhou mu, so he should go east to join the Shangdang. How could he still garrison at ease?
Jia Xu said calmly: "Zhou Mu and Mr. Wenyou naturally have their deep meaning. Niu Zhonglang can only act according to the order."Niu Fu nodded and said with a smile, "OK, so I will go to order soldiers. Please pack your bags quickly and let's start together later."
"Thanks for Niu Zhonglang's concern, Xu is ready."
After Niu Fu got up and walked away, Jia Xu's face was as if he had thrown a big stone into it, which suddenly changed.
"Instead of going to Bingzhou to take office, Dong Zhou Mu sent troops to settle in Anyi?"
"Li Wenyou is as resourceful as I am. Instead of dissuading Dong Zhuo, Li Wenyou orders Niu Fu to go south to ease?"
For a moment, Jia Xu's head was in a mess, but he was calm one by one clear, in a mess out of the clue.
Jia Xu looked at the blue sky and sighed.
"If you are a minister, you should keep your own position. Why do you have to fight for glory and wealth? Li Wenyou is a member of the authorities, but today Jia is a spectator. " Jia Xu smiles.
……
Soon after, Li Ru sent an emissary to Luoyang and presented the letter to the Emperor Ling.
When the Emperor Ling saw Dong Zhuo's letter, he was very angry. He immediately gave another order, severely reprimanded Dong Zhuo, and told him quite clearly: don't give me any moths, and quickly roll to Bingzhou with 5000 soldiers and horses.
However, Dong Zhuo's attitude was rather evasive. He always said that he would take all the troops to Bingzhou, and both sides kept fighting. The Emperor Ling was already critically ill, and he respected him as the son of heaven. However, Dong Zhuo refused to obey his orders. Naturally, he was angry for a moment.
It can be imagined that the Lingdi's condition became more and more serious, and finally died at the end of April.
