System Blessing: The Young Master of the Dong Family and Diao Chan's Fate

Then, as the head of the Xun family, Xun Yu, even if he is really a loyal minister and has the Han Dynasty in his heart, he must put the interests of the Xun family first. After all, you are the head of the family.

"My Lord, I will try my best to persuade him about my uncle's matter."

Xun You looked at Dong Yu who looked like nothing had happened and said.

"what?"

"Oh, don't worry, Gongda."

"I just won't let Xun Yu leave, I don't mean to do anything to him."

"You work so hard for me, even if it's just for your sake, I can't hurt him for no reason."

Dong Yu smiled and waved his hand and said.

"That's good."

"My uncle is just a bit stubborn."

Xun You breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

"The news here should be reaching Chang'an soon, right?"

Dong Yu did not continue to dwell on this matter, but changed the subject.

As soon as he arrived in Luoyang, he sent someone to rush to Chang'an to tell Li Ru, who was far away in Chang'an, about this matter.

Luoyang is so big that he naturally cannot defend it with just the troops he has.

It’s okay if others don’t plan to attack him, but if they do, he can only run away.

You must know that Luoyang City is leaky on all sides. Although there are three generals guarding the three passes in the south, there are no troops to be mobilized from Xiaopingjin and Mengjin in the north and Hulao in the east.

Dong Yu also knew that once the news of his occupation of Luoyang spread, someone would definitely come to attack him.

Dong Zhuo retreated from Luoyang in order to compromise with the princes of Guandong, freeing up Luoyang as a strategic buffer zone, and at the same time telling the world that the Dong family no longer had the ability to conquer the world.

Now that they have made a comeback, although the strength of the Guandong princes has greatly increased, they still will not tolerate the Dong family.

If we fail this time, it will be difficult to force the princes of Guandong to withdraw their troops by leaving Luoyang.

...

Changan

During this period, Dong Zhuo was in a bad mood.

After regaining control of the situation, Dong Zhuo naturally found out that Yuan Shu had done such a thing.

Fortunately, my son is very capable, otherwise I would not only suffer such a huge loss, but also suffer heavy casualties.

"Wenyou, can we cause some trouble for Yuan Shu?"

Dong Zhuo asked with a gloomy expression.

"There's definitely no way to get into big trouble, but it's okay to be disgusting for a while."

Li Ru sighed and spoke.

"What are you going to do?"

Dong Zhuo raised his eyebrows and looked at his son-in-law with some anticipation.

"Didn't Sun Jian just die?"

"This man has made great contributions to the Han Dynasty. Why not appoint his son Sun Ce as the governor of Yuzhou?"

"Also, since Yuan Shu has formed an alliance with Tao Qian, we should not allow him to take the post of Governor of Xuzhou."

Li Ru stroked his beard, a sinister look on his face.

The main reason is that the two sides are too far apart. Even if they want to fight Yuan Shu, the conditions do not allow it.

Therefore, Li Ru only intended to use the imperial edict to make a fuss.

Didn’t you, Yuan Shu, seize Yuzhou?

If you trade with us honestly this time, we may be able to take advantage of the situation and issue an edict to allow you to take the position of Governor of Yuzhou.

But now, haha!

First, he issued an imperial decree to appoint Sun Jian's son Sun Ce as the governor of Yuzhou, to see if he could alienate the relationship between Yuan Shu and Sun's former subordinates.

Then he planted a nail in the coffin for Yuan Shu and Tao Qian, who were originally allies.

It was not until this time that Li Ru really understood how the emperor used it.

"Xiangguo!"

"The young master sent someone back to deliver the message."

Tian Jing came running over with a letter in his hand.

"Quick, give it to me!"

Dong Zhuo's expression lit up with joy, and he immediately reached out to take it.

Spreading out the brocade, the book described the recent situation.

There were also requests for Dong Zhuo to send troops to support him.

"Father-in-law, where is Zihe now?"

"Did you say when you'd be back?"

Li Ru asked curiously from the side.

"Hahaha, okay!"

"My son really has the style of an old man!"

After a long time, Dong Zhuo laughed out loud.

Li Ru and Tian Jing looked at each other and became more and more curious about the content of the letter.
