So, will the Ma family and their generals still be able to survive in the future?
"Prime...Prime Minister?"
"Hiss...Wait, don't run!"
"Stinky boy, get him a cup of tea to moisten his throat. I'm going to see the Prime Minister."
Tian Jing is not a stupid person. How could someone who can be Dong Zhuo's aide have no intelligence at all?
Just from the two words "Prime Minister", he understood something.
Since the other party knows that it is the prime minister's sword, there must be a hidden story behind it.
After giving his son Tian Zhong a few words of advice, he hurriedly left the office with the sword.
Along the way, Tian Jing was thinking about how to tell Dong Zhuo.
You can't just ask directly, did you send someone with a knife to stab someone?
If this were to be made known to others, Dong Zhuo would surely scold him.
It seemed like he was questioning Dong Zhuo why he avoided me.
The reason why Tian Jing was able to serve as the chief clerk in Dong Zhuo's mansion was not only because of his loyalty and ability, but more because his words and actions made Dong Zhuo feel comfortable.
"Shu Jing, what do you want me to do?"
Dong Zhuo held the child and asked patiently.
If it were someone else, Dong Zhuo might have been impatient.
But Tian Jing was very much in Dong Zhuo's favor.
It is thanks to Tian Jing that my family is so prosperous.
"Prime Minister, I found the knife you lost."
"Look."
Tian Jing thought about it all the way and finally came up with a good excuse.
"Ok?"
"Knife?"
"What knife?"
"Why do you have this knife?"
Dong Zhuo was stunned, then his eyes turned to the Seven Star Sword.
"Isn't this the Seven Star Sword that the Prime Minister lost?"
"Pang Rou, one of Ma Teng's men, found it and brought it to me. I know the Prime Minister loves this sword very much, so I dare not delay even a moment."
Tian Jing held the Seven Star Knife and smiled quickly.
"Oh~"
"Oh yes, yes, I lost it."
Dong Zhuo's eyes turned and he immediately came to his senses.
It’s hard to say this kind of thing directly, but Tian Jing understands me.
Dong Zhuo took the Seven Star Sword with a smile and patted Tian Jing's shoulder gently.
"Uncle Jing."
"Look, I already have a grandson. I heard that your side business has been thriving these past two years. Can you find someone for my grandson?"
Dong Zhuo helped him up and said with a smile.
"..."
Tian Jing looked at Dong Zhuo blankly, then looked at Dong Ying.
"Prime Minister... isn't it a bit early?"
"The child is only three years old."
Tian Jing's eyes twitched slightly.
In ancient times, there was no concept of age. A child was considered one year old from the moment he was born.
"Uh...I'm just anxious."
"Although I have taken good care of myself over the past two years, I still feel my health is deteriorating."
"I guess I won't be able to see my great-grandson."
Dong Zhuo looked sad.
People's desires always change with different situations.
Once upon a time, Dong Zhuo felt that he would be content just to have a grandson in his arms.
But now that I have a grandson, I want to hug my great-grandson.
"You are joking, Prime Minister. Prime Minister is in good health and living to be seventy or eighty years old is not a problem."
Tian Jing laughed along and hurried to comfort her.
"Ok?"
"what!"
"Tian Shujing, you actually cursed me to only live to 70 or 80 years old?"
When Dong Zhuo heard this, his face turned dark and he cursed angrily.
"Hey, hey, Prime Minister, I said something wrong."
Tian Jing looked miserable and begged for mercy quickly.
It was you who said your health was deteriorating, and now you say I cursed you to only live to seventy or eighty years old.
Too difficult to please!
"Why did the Ma family come to you?"
Dong Zhuo gave Tian Jing a displeased look, then asked curiously.
"What can you do for me?"
"I am now most famous for being a matchmaker."
"Now the whole of Chang'an is saying that I am the mortal boy in charge of marriage under the throne of the great goddess Nuwa."
Tian Jing smiled somewhat smugly.
"Boy?"
"Oh, you have so many wrinkles on your face, you don't look like a boy at all."
Dong Zhuo said with a helpless smile.
The position he could give Tian Jing could not be too high. Given his ability, even if he was sent to the court, he would not be able to bear the heavy responsibility of one of the Nine Ministers.
If he cannot become a Nine Ministers, it is better for him to stay in the mansion and be the chief clerk, so that he can protect Tian Jing.
Dong Zhuo was also happy to see Tian Jing taking a different approach.
"If I ask you to be a pimp, you should think carefully. Pimp when you should, and don't pimp when you shouldn't."
"Okay, you go down."
After Dong Zhuo gave a reminder, he waved at Tian Jing.
"Rest assured, Prime Minister. I have carefully considered everything I do."
"Through my efforts, many of the Han Dynasty's veteran officials have now become relatives with our Xiliang generals."
Tian Jing nodded repeatedly and did not forget to talk about his work results.
Dong Zhuo, Li Ru and others also gave it careful consideration when deciding to have the sons of the direct lineage generals of Xiliang marry into the Han officials in the court.
Needless to say, the Xiliang generals were loyal to them, so having those Han officials tied to them was of great help to their control of the court.
"Okay, let's go down."
"Remember to save any good ones for my son."
"Zihe and this child are like me. They like fighting and don't like women. You elders will have to keep this in mind."
"No matter how many grandchildren you have, you can never have too many."
"Oh, by the way, Xiaobai has reached the right age, you can look for one too."
"Okay, let's get down to business."
Dong Zhuo nodded in satisfaction, gave a few reminders, and then drove the man out.
"Rest assured, Prime Minister. I will take my leave."
Tian Jing bowed and then left the main hall.
