The revival of the Han Dynasty must start with Dong Zhuo

Chapter 24 Crying

Is Shisun Rui a member of Dong’s party?

As this official document is issued, he has to be yes or no.

Combined with Shisun Rui's remarks at the court meeting in the morning, people simply thought that the emperor was too oppressed by Dong Zhuo and was furious, so Dong Zhuo threw Shisun Rui, his own man, out to save himself.

There was no way, since Shisun Rui was the first to take action.

It was he who first impeached the Minister of the Chancellery Jia Xu for the sake of Dong Zhuo's face.

Now that you have spoken, the emperor and the court have both confirmed that you, Shisun Rui, are Dong Zhuo's men. What else can you quibble about?
From now on, Shisun Rui’s reputation among scholars would probably be completely ruined.

Not only did his reputation suffer, but he also lost his position as Shangshu Pushe.

There is also the last paragraph of the official document.

Shisun Rui's words and actions directly affected his subordinates.

To destroy someone's job is like killing his parents.

In the future, there will inevitably be an unbridgeable gap between Shisun Rui and these once extremely close colleagues and subordinates.

In addition, Jia Xu could also use this skill to easily establish his own authority within the Shangshu Tai, and promote some practical talents to better erase the traces of Wang Yun, Shisun Rui and others.

This move of killing three birds with one stone is truly a plot of a vicious scholar. It is completely intended to drive Shi Sunrui, a self-proclaimed upright scholar, to death...

Former Situ Mansion.

Even with the sound of stringed instruments, it cannot cover up someone's miserable cry.

"Wuwuwu! I won't live anymore! I won't live anymore!"

The person who almost fell to the ground crying was Shi Sun Rui who was dismissed from his post.

Shi Sunrui was too old to have any strength left. He cried and fell to the ground, wailing, "Oh God! What sin have I committed!"

"My Fufeng Shisun clan is a family of scholars and upright people! How come we have become a rebel party that is attached to the traitor Dong overnight?"

Shi Sun Rui fell to the ground, holding his chest, still sobbing: "My grandfather was once the governor of Hongnong, and a high-ranking official with a salary of 2,000 stones! When I was young, he often taught me that I needed to uphold the right path and leave a good name. Now I am labeled a traitor... How can I face my grandfather again in the afterlife!"

woohoo~
Crying
Wang Yun was already upset, and he became even more depressed when he heard Shisun Rui's crying.

"Jun Rong! How could you come to my house so easily? Wouldn't that just give Dong Zhuo a handle?"

Shi Sun Rui, however, had already stopped caring at this moment: "Zi Shi (Wang Yun's courtesy name)! I have now been demoted to a commoner, and I have even been given the Book of Zhou Li. How can I still be considered a living person?"

"If Dong Zhuo wants to kill me for this, then just let him do it! I wish he could kill me with his own hands, so that I, Shi Sunrui, can have a clean reputation! This will uphold the upright family tradition of my Shi Sun family!"

Shisun Rui really wants to die now.

It was not enough to falsely accuse him of being a member of Dong Zhuo's party, to remove him from office and strip him of his title, but they also gave him a copy of "Zhou Li"!!!
Doesn't this tell everyone in the world that Shi Sun Rui doesn't know about "Li"?

A great scholar was accused by the court of not knowing etiquette and laws. It would be better to just cut his neck with a knife!

Wang Yun became increasingly annoyed: "Jun Rong!"

"Master Zi!"

Shisun Rui struggled to get up from the ground, and accidentally knocked off his Jinxian crown, causing his already gray hair to fall down.

"I am already half buried in the ground! The reason I endured for the sake of the country is simply to leave a good name behind for my descendants!"

"But now, I am considered as a member of the Dong bandit gang and was even given the Zhou Li. Tell me, if you were me, how would you deal with it?"

Wang Yun first wanted to argue with Shisun Rui, but then he looked gloomy.

"Jun Rong, don't you understand yet?"

"I have long been recognized by scholars all over the world as a member of the bandit Dong's gang."

After hearing this, Shi Sun Rui stood there in a daze.

Wang Yun said to himself: "Since I humbled myself to work for the traitor Dong Zhuo, we have been dependent on Dong Zhuo for fame and fortune."

"Do you think that the Guandong scholars will still regard us as loyal subjects of the Han Dynasty?" "Stop dreaming!"

When Wang Yun said this, he swept his wide sleeves and knocked over the bamboo slips on the table, scattering them to the ground.

As if realizing his own gaffe, Wang Yun slowly stood up, walked to the front, picked up the bamboo slips one by one, and walked in front of Shisun Rui holding them.

After this relaxation, Wang Yun's breathing became much more stable.

"Jun Rong, in the eyes of others, you and I have always been Dong's followers. What was said in the official document is not wrong at all."

"The only way for us to wash away the stigma and restore our reputation is to kill Dong Zhuo and revive the Han Dynasty!"

"Isn't this the reason why you and I have endured until now and what we are going to do?"

Wang Yun put his arm around Shi Sunrui and said, "Jun Rong! That's why we have no way out!"

"Do you want to bear the stigma and be cursed by the world, or do you want to eliminate the Han thieves and live up to the expectations of the clan?"

"Ok?"

Although the tone is gentle, it is full of power!

Shisun Rui slowly healed his broken mood, but he was still somewhat helpless.

"Master Zi, but now that our plot to assassinate Dong Zhuo has been exposed, how can we still have a chance?"

Ever since Wang Yun was dismissed from his post as Shangshu Ling, everyone knew that the plan might have been known to Dong Zhuo.

Now that Dong Zhuo has moved into the Weiyang Palace again, it seems that another assassination attempt on Dong Zhuo will be a long way off.

Not to mention, Shisun Rui doubted that he and others would not live long enough for the next opportunity to arise.

"There's a chance."

There was a strange madness in Wang Yun's calm eyes.

"It's just that I still need some time to plan."

Shisun Rui didn't know what Wang Yun was planning.

But he could hear confidence from Wang Yun's words.

"Master Zi really has another plan?"

Shi Sunrui, who had suffered a blow, really needed others to give him some confidence at this moment.

With his other hand, he tightly grasped Wang Yun's hand that was on his arm, and a light burst out again in his gloomy expression.

"Yes, but you have to wait."

"and……"

Wang Yun shook his head and said, "Dong Zhuo must have known about it this time because it was leaked by that two-faced man named Lu Bu."

"The plot to assassinate Dong Zhuo is a big deal after all, and it cannot be known to too many people. I hope Jun Rong will forgive me for not revealing any information now."

Every failure makes one wiser, otherwise Wang Yun would not be alive today.

"besides."

Wang Yun hesitated to speak again.

"Compared to Dong Zhuo, I am more worried about the other person."

Shi Sun Rui didn't know if there was anyone besides Dong Zhuo who could make Wang Yun afraid, so he immediately wondered, "Who is Zishi worried about?"

After hesitating for a long time, Wang Yun finally said the name he was reluctant to say -

"Today!"

　Oh, I didn't try it out...
