Chapter 77 Dong Zhuo Enters the Palace, Attendant Liu He

On September [-]rd, Empress Dowager He died of poisoning.Dong Zhuo did not allow the imperial court to hold a funeral for the Empress Dowager He, but asked the young emperor Liu Xie to express his condolences in Fengchang Pavilion in Luoyang City, and the ministers and ministers wore white clothes to court for three days.However, how could the death of the Empress Dowager He be concealed from the world?It won't be long before Luoyang will be full of plains!Although Dong Zhuo didn't know who did it, he couldn't do anything about it. He just sent more secret sentries in the city to avoid any accidents.

This day, Tian Chou brought his son Liu He to the city of Luoyang together, and encountered a scene full of plains.Even if the emperor dies, it's impossible to be so grand?After inquiring, the two found out that Empress Dowager He had also fallen ill in the palace recently.Liu He burst into tears immediately, but Tian Chou was stopped by a sentry before Tian Chou had time to dissuade them, and they were about to capture and detain them.

Tian Chou had no choice but to reveal his identity to avoid trouble.But that person came out of the group, and saw that this person had a monkey cheek with a sharp mouth, and there was no flesh on his face.But he said that he was Li Ru, a counselor under Dong Taiwei, and he was going to take the two of them to meet Dong Taiwei.Tian Chou knew that Li Ru was the advisor of Dong Zhuo, a Xiliang cavalry, but he didn't hear that Dong Zhongying was promoted to Taiwei?A few months ago, Han Lingdi wanted to pass on this position to the lord, but now it has been replaced by Dong Zhuo?

Li Ru got on the horse to lead the way, and the two had to get on the horse to follow, surrounded by the sentry and horses, and rushed to Taiwei's mansion together.How does Dong Taiwei's mansion look like a barracks?There are generals inside and out, especially the general guarding the gate of the mansion. He is really majestic and handsome!Why is the bay red horse under his crotch so handsome?It's really unforgettable!

It can be seen that Taiwei Dong also has no sense of security in the capital. Why did he get promoted so quickly?The two were naturally very puzzled.In the hall, there was only a fierce man with a short stature, but his waist was ten girth wide, and his face was full of flesh, but Li Ru bowed and saluted him, calling him the lord.Then he introduced Tian Chou and Liu He to this fierce man.

Only this person began to smile, looked at Tian Chou and Liu He and said: "Dare to ask Mr. Liu, Tian Shicong, how is Da Sima doing? My Dong Zhongying has admired Liu Yu's name for a long time, but I have never seen it. I am really fascinated." It's been a long time, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

The son Liu He hurried forward to salute, and replied: "Dong Taiwei, my father is in good health, thank you for your concern. His old man is just very worried about the affairs of the court, so he specially ordered me, Liu He, to come to the capital to find out the news. Would you please Taiwei Dong tell me about the capital? I will return it as soon as possible so that Jiayan won’t be worried.”

Then Dong Zhuo said: "Everything is well in the court, and I am worried about you. Since Mr. Liu is here, why don't you come to the court with me in a while, and see how it is today? I believe that Sima is also worried about the safety of His Majesty the Emperor." Yes, just ask Mr. Liu and Tian Shicong to come with me into the palace and see you."

Liu He hurriedly said: "Dong Taiwei is joking, I, Liu He, is only from a Xiaolian family, so how can I see His Majesty? If the Taiwei is busy with official duties, please ask the Taiwei to go first, and my nephew, our master and servant, will leave for the time being." Dodge, the two of us will visit Taiwei again in another day."

Then Dong Zhuo said: "It's okay! Since Mr. Liu has no official position, you can enter the palace with me today and ask for an official position. Originally, I wanted to ask Your Majesty to invite the great Sima Liu Yu to return to Beijing to take office? Now the capital There are so many troubles, and I really can't do without Da Sima! Since it is Mr. Liu who is here, he should come to see His Majesty with me! Tian Shicong, would you like to stay in the capital as an official?"

Tian Chou bowed and saluted and said: "The Taiwei is joking. I, Tian Chou, belonged to the lord Liu Yu in life, and died as a ghost of the Liu family. I will never betray the lord in this life. No matter how good this capital is, it is not the place where Liu Yu lives for a long time. If I come here to see it, I will return to Youzhou, and I will tell my lord the truth about what I see and hear here."


Dong Zhuo and Li Ru looked at Tian Chou again, then Dong Zhuo immediately laughed and said, "Tian Shi is true and I believe in people, and a certain family likes it very much! If you can change your mind during this time in the capital, I, Dong Zhuo, will accept you." How about being my personal servant? You are not in a hurry to answer, just think about it first. Come on, come! The whole car is ready to drive, and a sentry team is called. My son Feng will lead the team first. You all come together and follow me. The palace is ready!"

After a while the chariot was ready, Dong Zhuo invited Liu He and the young master to get on the chariot and drive into the palace together, but Liu He refused to get on the chariot, he only wanted to ride on horseback and follow.In this way, everyone went to Luoyang City together, and Tian Chou stayed close to Liu He.That meaning couldn't be more obvious, he just wanted to reassure young master Liu He that he would not betray the Liu family no matter what.

When the car arrived at Luoyang City, the little yellow gate in the city saw that it was Dong Taiwei's car, so how dare they not open the door to welcome him?Surrounded by Lv Bu and his personal guards, Dong Zhuo came to the Chongde Hall. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty had already been invited by other eunuchs.Taiwei Dong was accompanied by Lu Bu, Li Ru and others, and entered the Chongde Hall together. At this time, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was already sitting on the dragon chair.

Dong Zhuo walked towards the hall swaggeringly, while Lu Bu, Li Ru and others knelt down in front of the hall together, shouted long live three times, and worshiped upwards.They didn't get up and enter the hall until it was reported from the hall that Wuli was flattened.And Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty Liu Xie had ordered Dong Taiwei to move a chair beside the Longshu case and let him sit down.

Dong Zhuo looked into the hall, bowed his head to follow, and Liu He and Tian Chou, who did not look sideways, were sincere and terrified, and said with a smile: "My Majesty, I have found Liu He, the son of Da Sima Liu Yu, who came to Luoyang on behalf of Da Sima." As far as I know, Mr. Liu is only Xiaolian and has no official position, how can this be done? Mr. Liu came to see His Majesty today, what kind of official position does the Holy Majesty intend to confer on him?"

Only the voice of a boy in the hall said: "Taiwei Dong, what kind of official position do you think Liu He should be given?"

Dong Zhuo stood up carelessly and said: "Your Majesty, I think that Liu He is young and promising, and he should not bury such talents. Since the Holy One is destined today, let him be made a servant, so that Liu He can stay in Luoyang and often Accompanying His Majesty. The Holy Majesty can consult him if there is something to do, and you can get closer to Grand Sima Liu Yu, what do you think, Your Majesty?"

The boy's voice paused for a moment, thinking he was observing the people in the hall, and then said: "According to the Taiwei's words, let Liu He be my servant, and order him to serve me in the hall. Liu He , you still don’t kneel down to thank you? When will you wait?”

Liu He didn't expect that he followed Dong Zhuo to the palace, not only saw His Majesty the Emperor, but also was canonized as a servant.Liu He hurriedly knelt down again, kowtowed in the direction of the Long Shuan, and said in his mouth: "Thank you, Lord Long En! Thank you Lord Long En! Your Majesty, Liu He, will never dare to betray His Majesty in this life!"

The boy voice in the direction of the dragon chair spoke again: "Liu and you, let's talk to me. If Aiqing has time, you can come to Luoyang City during this time to chat with me. I am very happy." I miss Grand Sima Liu Yu, how is he doing in Youzhou? How is his health? Is he healthy?"

Liu He hurriedly stood up and said, "Thank you for remembering my father. He is in good health. He spends all day in Youzhou dealing with government affairs, so he really has no time to come to the capital. I will definitely come to Luoyang City to chat with Your Majesty in time to chat with my father. Let the emperor know what Youzhou has done, so that His Majesty can rest assured about the northern border. Jia Yan is also concerned about His Majesty's health, and can't wait to come to Luoyang in person to see the Emperor."

The Tong Yin on the Longshu case said: "I met Da Sima once with my father. He promised my father that day that he would guard the northern border for my father. Where there will be no more battles, he will I will come back, and have another night of drinking and talking about life with my father! It is a pity that my father has passed away, and they will never see each other again..."

Dong Zhuo said, "Since that's the case, Your Majesty will draw up an imperial decree and order it to be sent to Youzhou. Please let Mr. Liu Yu and Mr. Liu come to Beijing to report on your duties. Although Youzhou is an important border defense area, after Mr. Liu's governance, it is already a prime minister. Now that it has a large scale, I believe it will be the same if it is managed by Gongsun Zan. If Master Liu comes back, it will be the same to have a night of drinking with His Majesty, and it will be a good story for the two of them, father and son, to be courtiers in the same hall, what does Your Majesty think?"

The child's voice was stunned for a moment before he said: "Zunzuo, early tomorrow morning, I will trouble Taiwei Dong to find someone to help draw up an imperial decree. Just write down and ask Grand Sima Liu Yu to come to the capital to report on his duties, and inform Liu Yu Uncle, his son Liu He is already serving as an official servant here."

Dong Zhuo said: "Your Majesty will lead the decree. Tomorrow morning, I will recruit people to prepare the decree. Then I will ask Your Majesty to use the imperial seal. Only in this way can we send Xiao Huangmen to Youzhou and invite Lord Liu to report to the palace.

This Liu He once told Wei Chen that he still wanted to pay homage to Empress Dowager He. I don't know if His Majesty had time and was willing to take him to Fengchang Pavilion to pay homage to Empress Dowager He? "

The child's voice suddenly sped up and said: "Liu Shizhong, Empress Dowager He has already passed the first seven days, and if you come to worship again, it is not in line with the etiquette, so you don't have to come to Fengchang Pavilion to worship face to face!

Where do you live now in Luoyang City?You can't stay with Dong Taiwei for a long time, can you?Do you need me to give you a house? "

Then Dong Zhuo said: "Your Majesty is worried, Liu Shizhong's mansion will be back in a while, and I will arrange a place for him. Including all the useful things in the mansion, the old man will prepare for him."

Liu He hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, his head was already sweating, he hurriedly said: "I know, if I go to court early tomorrow, I will come to the hall to pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

The boy Yin ordered Liu He to get up, stepped aside, and stopped talking.Dong Zhuo and Dong Taiwei next to him saw that the matter was over, and he also made Han Xiandi leave a bad impression on Liu He.He stood up and said, "Your Majesty, since there is nothing else to do, we will all go back to the residence first. I will arrange for Liu Shizhong's residence, so Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about it."

The Tong Yin on the Longshu table said: "Then Taiwei Dong will be responsible for everything, and I am tired, so I will go back to the palace to rest first."

When everyone was about to go back, Liu He and Tian Chou sneaked a glimpse of the dragon chair, and there was only a child sitting on it.The child was only eight or nine years old, and one could tell at a glance that he was just a sounding board, and Dong Zhuo's consent was obviously required for the canonization of civil and military officials before he could make a final decision!

Everyone followed Taiwei Dong out of the Chongde Hall, everyone got on their horses together, Dong Zhuo got in a chariot and drove them away, and a mighty group of people left the palace.After getting out of Luoyang City, Tian Chou stopped Taiwei Dong's car and said, "Speak to the Taiwei, the villain and the young master are now looking for a place to settle down. There is no need to trouble the Taiwei about the residence."

Dong Zhuo got on the car and said: "Li Ru, you can take Liu Shizhong and Tian Shiqian to see where they like the mansions, and you can help arrange everything for them, and then go back to the mansion to find me. "
