The revival of the Han Dynasty must start with Dong Zhuo

Chapter 279 Volume Crying
Guanzhong.

Jiuyi Mountain.

This was originally the mausoleum built by the current emperor for himself, named Zhaoling.

But at this moment, not far from the side of Zhaoling, a mausoleum was first used——

【Tomb of Dong Zhuo, Grand Master of the Han Dynasty】

The clouds in the sky are so thick that they would press down on the ground if they went a little lower.

The Chief Censor Cai Yong and the General Niu Fu were both waiting in front of a thatched cottage.

"How is the Queen?"

"I don't know, but my daughter has gone in to keep you company."

Cai Yong had a complicated expression and soon felt a little dizzy.

Niu Fu stepped forward to support Cai Yong and said, "Cai Zhongcheng, go and have a rest first. I will take care of the Queen. Nothing will go wrong."

Niu Fu is Dong Bai's uncle after all, and one of the few relatives around Dong Bai. He will definitely not let anything happen to Dong Bai.

Cai Yong is now old and has been busy in recent days, so he feels a little tired, so he goes to rest.

Shortly after Cai Yong left, several figures approached the thatched cottage stealthily.

"who!"

Niu Fu shouted loudly, and the surrounding soldiers immediately drew their swords and forced the man out.

"Brother-in-law! It's me! It's me!"

Niu Fu looked carefully and realized it was Dong Huang.

When he saw Dong Huang, Niu Fu's eyes were filled with disgust.

He had also heard about what Dong Huang had done in Lintao before.

shameful!
"What are you doing here?"

Niu Fu ordered the soldiers to put down their weapons, but he did not look happy to Dong Huang.

Dong Huang smiled innocently: "Brother-in-law, what are you talking about! My own uncle passed away, and I can't come to see him?"

"Besides, I watched the Queen grow up, so I should come and visit her no matter what."

Only when he heard the other party talking about family affection did Niu Fu relax.

"You want to see the Queen?"

“It’s mainly about visiting and saying hello.”

Niu Fu thought about it and felt that it was not reasonable to prevent Dong Bai from seeing Dong Huang.

After all, Dong Huang is Dong Bai's uncle, and their relationship is closer. There is no reason to prevent them from meeting at this point.

"That's fine."

Niu Fu made way, but his words were full of warnings: "Remember! Don't mention other things! The Queen has been exhausted and tired recently. If you still think of the Queen as your junior and your family member, don't over-stimulate her!"

Dong Huang smiled again and again: "I dare not, I dare not."

He ordered his maid to go forward and report. After hesitating for a moment, Dong Bai chose to meet Dong Huang because of their past friendship.

Dong Huang presented the gift and entered the thatched cottage.

"Your subject Dong Huang greets the Queen! May the Queen be at peace!"

After saying this, without waiting for Dong Bai's permission, Dong Huang stood up from the ground without any courtesy and walked forward.

"Bai, uncle is here to see you! I hope you won't be too sad!"

There was a thin curtain in the thatched cottage.

Through the light, it seems that two figures can be seen.

Seeing Dong Huang being so unruly, one of the female voices immediately stopped him: "Dong Huang! Do you still have manners? Do you have any etiquette? Has the Queen given you permission to get up?"

……

Dong Huang only then noticed that there were actually two people, and couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.

Dong Huang was also familiar with the person who was speaking. She was Cai Yan, the lady of Cai, who had lived in Meiwu for some time before and was also the emperor's current beauty.

Dong Huang quickly took two steps back and knelt down again: "I didn't know your Majesty was here. This is really a bit abrupt."

"This is not rude!"

Cai Yan's voice was a little cold, but also firm and powerful.

"Now that the emperor is gone, the queen is supreme! Even if you are a relative of the queen, you should not disregard etiquette and the majesty of the royal family!"

"You have violated the taboo by addressing the Queen by her name! You have violated the etiquette of a minister! Today, considering that you are in front of the Grand Tutor's spirit, I will not pursue your faults, but I hope that you will be careful with your words and actions in the future! Don't do anything offensive again!"

Get off the horse!
Although the metaphor is a bit inappropriate...

But Cai Yan protected Dong Bai like a mother and did not let Dong Bai be offended in any way!
Dong Huang no longer had the naive look he had just now.

After kneeling down again, Dong Huang looked at the two figures behind the curtain with rather resentful eyes.

"I know I was wrong!"

After Dong Huang apologized reluctantly, Dong Bai's voice finally rang out: "Uncle, it's okay, get up..."

Dong Bai's voice sounded weak and hoarse.

The most important thing is that Dong Bai's word "Uncle" finally made Dong Huang happy, knowing that Dong Bai still remembered the Dong family's kindness!

"Queen!"

Dong Huang suddenly fell to the ground and burst into tears. "Since the death of the Grand Tutor, my uncle has been worried!"

"Perhaps you don't know that the Grand Master's tomb passage was dug out bit by bit by us uncles!"

"After we dug inside, it was dark and cold, with no light at all! We living inside were scared, so I guess the Grand Master would be lonely living inside, right?"

"When the Grand Master was still alive, when did our Dong family ever suffer such injustice? If our Dong ancestors knew what happened to us now, I'm afraid they would be sad for us, right?"

……

Dong Huang seemed to have completely forgotten Niu Fu's warning not to provoke the Queen.

Now, the call of "Grand Master" left and right finally caused the figure on the curtain to tremble continuously and curl up slightly.

"So please, Queen, have mercy on us and issue an imperial decree to stop us from building a mausoleum in Jiuyi Mountain. Let us return to Lintao!"

While crying, Dong Huang finally revealed his true intentions.

Now that the emperor is not in Guanzhong, as Cai Yan said, the queen has become the supreme ruler.

As long as Dong Bai ordered to forgive the Dong family members and let them go at this time, even if the emperor came back, he would have to accept the matter for the sake of the queen's face!

Therefore, Dong Huang took this opportunity to come and meet Dong Bai, hoping to finalize the matter!
For this reason, Dong Huang did not hesitate to bring up Dong Zhuo to continue to provoke Dong Bai, hoping that Dong Bai would, while considering his friendship with Dong Zhuo, also forgive the Dong family from Jiuyi Mountain!
Cai Yan inside the curtain had already heard Dong Huang's intention. She hugged Dong Bai, who was trembling constantly under Dong Huang's words, and shouted angrily: "Dong Huang! What do you want to do?"

Unexpectedly, Dong Huang became tough at this moment: "I am talking to the Queen! What does it have to do with Your Majesty?"

"Since Your Majesty is so particular about etiquette, you should know that when the Queen and I are talking, others are not allowed to interrupt us at will! Don't you even understand these principles?"

"Oh!"

There was a noise inside the curtain, and it was obvious that something had been knocked to the ground!

When Dong Huang saw this scene, he finally felt happy and felt that he had both Dong Bai and Cai Yan under his control.

At this time, the curtain was slowly opened.

Dong Bai sat there weakly, his eyes were red and swollen, and his originally slightly fleshy and round chin now became sharp.

Cai Yan stood on one side, glaring at Dong Huang with rage, obviously indignant at his despicable behavior!

When Dong Huang saw Dong Bai, he became even happier.

"Has the Queen forgotten? When the Grand Tutor conferred the title of Lord Weiyang upon the Queen, it was I who gave her the seal!"

"And when I was in Lintao before..."

Just as Dong Huang continued to talk about the past, Dong Bai finally spoke.

"I remember Lintao."

Dong Huang's face lit up with joy.

But he didn't feel happy for long, because Dong Bai's next words threw him into the underworld -

"I remember the wild beasts that my uncle kept in Lintao, and I remember the human bones that those wild beasts had eaten."

Dong Bai seemed very tired at the moment, but his words remained clear.

"Your Majesty did not kill my uncle because of my grandfather's kindness. That's why he showed mercy."

"I hope that uncle will not make things difficult for His Majesty, and will not bring disaster to the tribe again."

Even though Dong Bai seemed to be about to break at the slightest touch, she still expressed her attitude——

"I am now the queen of the Han Dynasty. Everything must be considered according to the laws of the Han Dynasty. I should not bend the law for personal gain. I hope that uncle will go back."

Dong Huang didn't expect Dong Bai to still be conscious, so he cried out: "Queen! Can you bear to abandon us here? Have you forgotten? I held you in my arms when you were a child..."

"I hope you will respect yourself, uncle."

Dong Bai glanced outside the thatched cottage.

"My uncle is guarding outside. If I call him in, the Dong family and my uncle will lose face."

Dong Huang's face turned blue and white.

However, thinking of Niu Fu outside, Dong Huang did not dare to force him too much. He had to grit his teeth and leave the thatched cottage, planning to look for another opportunity later.

Just as Dong Huang's heel touched the door frame of the thatched cottage, Dong Bai couldn't hold it anymore.

She turned sideways, hugged Cai Yan's waist, and buried her head in Cai Yan's soft belly.

No sound.

But Cai Yan could tell from the warmth and wetness in her abdomen and Dong Bai's slightly trembling shoulders that Dong Bai was crying.

It’s just that these days, Dong Bai didn’t even dare to cry out loud.

Cai Yan hugged Dong Bai's head distressedly, and Dong Bai finally raised her head after crying for a while, sobbing and asking Cai Yan: "Sister Zhaoji, when will His Majesty come back?"

Cai Yan gently patted Dong Bai's back and wiped away the tears from her eyes: "It's almost time, it's almost time. The emperor has defeated the enemy in Hedong and will be back soon."

Dong Bai was still sobbing: "Since we have won the battle, why hasn't the emperor come back yet?"

"It seems he went to Jingzhou."

"Liar! He won the fight but he didn't come back. Does he not want us anymore?"

"What nonsense is the Queen talking about?"

Dong Bai hugged Cai Yan tightly again, clenching his teeth in a state of collapse:
"No matter what, let His Majesty come back quickly."

"Sister Zhao Ji, I really can't hold on any longer!"

Cai Yan knew what Dong Bai had been through these days, and she sighed, and continued to comfort Dong Bai and support him.

"Your Majesty will be back soon. When he comes back, everything will return to its original state."
