Chapter 59 The Old Fox's Conspiracy

Jia Xu, a native of Guzang, Wuwei, was a well-known counselor and military strategist in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and a founding hero of Cao Wei.

In history, after Dong Zhuo's death, he designed for Li Jue and Guo Si, and Wang Yun and Lu Bu were defeated.

Cao Cao lost Dian Wei, his eldest son Cao Ang and others because he fell for his strategy.

In the Battle of Guandu, he advocated a decisive battle with Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao unified the north in the first battle.

Before the Battle of Chibi, Cao Cao refused to listen to his advice and suffered an unprecedented defeat.

Ma Chao and Han Sui were defeated because of his divorce.

Because of his advice, Cao Pi was able to completely defeat Cao Zhi and become the heir to the throne of Cao Cao.

This person has been an official for many princes, and he has made no mistakes in his life. And never coveted wealth and meritorious deeds, he is one of the few counselors who died well in the Three Kingdoms.

"Hahaha... Mr. Wenhe is here, please sit down quickly."

Dong Zhuo was very happy at the moment, his whole body was full of joy, and he got up to welcome Jia Xu's arrival.

Among the Xiliang army, only old Jia Xu can get this treatment.

You must know that Dong Zhuo was able to grow to the level he is today, and Jia Xu has a lot of credit for it.

And Lao Jiaxu is a low-key person and never likes high-ranking officials and rich salary, but he always does his duty with due diligence.

On the contrary, Dong Zhuo respected him even more.

If anyone Dong Zhuo could listen to, it would be Jia Xu.

"Jia Xu, aren't you at my son-in-law Niu Fu's place?" Dong Zhuo asked after gesturing for tea.

Jia Xu ignored Li Ru's anxious expression on the opposite side, stood up calmly, and said, "This subordinate came back from the border to report on the military situation... Ma Teng's soldiers and horses in Xiliang suddenly changed. I couldn't figure it out at first, but now I figured it out. gone."

"That guy Ma Teng is doing something again?" Dong Zhuo frowned, but he was attracted by the last sentence, "How did you figure it out? What did you figure out?"

Jia Xu signaled to Li Ru on the opposite side not to worry, "Prime Minister, Ma Teng's change of soldiers and horses in Xiliang must have something to do with this abdication."

"Does it matter?" Dong Zhuo muttered, "Now that the Han Dynasty is weak, the emperor's life is not like a human being.

He was young, so it was normal for him not to want to be an emperor. "

He often sent people to torture the little emperor, but he didn't tell others about it.

Jia Xu stroked his beard, he had already seen Dong Zhuo's ambition to usurp the throne. This happened, and no one can stop it.

What's more, this time it was not a usurpation of the throne, but a reasonable abdication, so Dong Zhuo would not refuse it even more.

"Prime Minister, what you said makes sense."

Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru, "Well, Mr. Wen He said that what I said made sense, there are so many conspiracies and tricks coming from there."

Jia Xu coughed, and said, "But you can't be too careful."

"Hmm..." Dong Zhuo was deep in thought. In fact, he also knew what Li Ru and Jia Xu were worried about. It was nothing more than the fact that the little emperor had a conspiracy and an ambush to assassinate him. "Mr. Wen He is right."

Li Ru wiped off his sweat, but Mr. Wen He could still speak, so he could only achieve the effect by insinuating on the sidelines.

Dong Zhuo got up and said seriously: "Actually, I have also considered that there is a conspiracy, but you must know that this is not a usurpation but an abdication. So no matter what tricks the little emperor has, I will not miss this opportunity."

"However, in order to prevent accidents, it is necessary to arrange properly in advance. The truth is to immediately send people to control the entire Chang'an City, and to control all suspicious people. This is the head office, Mr. Wenhe?"

"No." Jia Xu said.

"Ah?" Dong Zhuo was a little dumbfounded, Tong Ling's eyes were full of confusion, "Why not?"

Old Jia Xu came out, walking back and forth, Dong Zhuo and the others didn't dare to disturb them with their anxious eyes.

Finally, old Jia Xu stopped in his tracks and said, "Prime Minister, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. But if it is upright to take control, if the enemy really has a conspiracy, the little emperor will definitely withdraw the abdication edict immediately."

"...This...this is not acceptable!" Dong Zhuo's heart skipped a beat. In that case, he would not be able to be the emperor.

Li Ru has also come to his senses now, and said from the sidelines: "Prime Minister, Mr. Wen He is right. In order to prevent the conspiracy, the enemy needs to be caught off guard. At that time, the emperor will not be able to withdraw the decision to abdicate, and he can also take the opportunity to confuse the evil spirits." All the people caught up..."

Dong Zhuo understood, this is the pursuit of wealth and wealth. To be an emperor, ordinary people would have to go through a sea of ​​swords and swords, not to mention Grand Master Dong who killed people without blinking an eye.

So he solemnly said: "Everyone, no matter what difficulties, the truth will not be let go, so how should we arrange it?"

Jia Xu saw that he had made a choice, so he said: "The prime minister can submit a letter to resign, and he has to resign three times. If this is the case, no one else can say anything when he becomes emperor in the future."

"That makes sense, how will we arrange it later?" Dong Zhuo asked urgently.

Jia Xu said: "My idea is that everything enters the palace as normal, but it is reasonable for the prime minister to bring more soldiers for such important events. The point is to ambush a large number of elite confidant soldiers outside the palace, and let Marquis Wen never leave your house." By your side, you are always ready."

Li Ru picked up the conversation and said excitedly: "If there is a change, just climb up and shout, and all the people will enter, and great things will happen!"

Who knows, Jia Xu waved his hand and said: "No, no matter whether there is a change or not, after entering the palace with all the officials, the first thing to do is to start immediately and order the troops to enter."

"Launching without waiting for a change, isn't that a direct attempt to usurp the throne?" But Li Ru had to admit that Jia Xu was vicious and thoughtful.

In order to prevent the emperor from withdrawing the imperial edict, Dong Zhuo had to enter the palace before killing them all. At that time, both inside and outside were his people, and the news could not be leaked out, and there were three previous refusals, so he could become the emperor logically.

And it is launched immediately. Even if the enemy has a conspiracy, they will not be given time to launch it, so there will be no problems.

"Mr. Wen He's preemptive attack is really ingenious, so our side is invincible. But, how could it be possible to ambush a large number of elite soldiers without alarm?" Li Ru asked.

Jia Xu smiled slightly, "It's simple, you can let the confidant soldiers disguise themselves as ordinary people and spread them around the palace. General Li Jue and Guo Si control the palace gates and open them to respond..."

old fox. Li Ru sighed, deeply feeling that he is not such a person, fortunately this old guy doesn't like being an official, if not, his status will not be guaranteed.

Dong Zhuo was overjoyed and jumped up against the case, "That's it, go get ready right away, I'll write a statement of rejection right now."

Shaoqing.

The first book that was rejected set off for Chang'an.

Under Jia Xu's instigation, Li Jue, who brought Biao Zou, entered the city with great fanfare.

Therefore, the news that the emperor abdicated and the prime minister refused immediately spread throughout the city.

The people in Chang'an were all shocked.

Immediately afterwards, the emperor's second abdication edict was issued.

Dong Zhuo immediately refused again.

The common people were surprised, did Dong Zhuo have no ambitions?

Immediately following the third abdication, Dong Zhuo refused again.

The people inevitably began to admire Dong Zhuo.

Immediately afterwards, the fourth abdication came, and the little emperor directly said that if Dong Zhuo did not accept it, he would abdicate directly.

Only then did Dong Zhuo agree.

The common people sighed endlessly, so they couldn't raise their objections.

After Dong Zhuo learned about it, he was overjoyed. What he wanted was this folk effect. At this moment, his heart was full of self-confidence and longing for ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor.

...

The night before the abdication.

Situ Mansion.

All the important personnel who conspired to kill Dong Zhuo are here, this will be the last gathering before tomorrow's action.

"Tie Dong is really shameless, he still has the face to make three requests and three resignations? Now the people in the city think that the court is hopeless, that Dong thief is the destiny, and it is still spreading to other places."

Wang Yun was very angry.

Taiwei Ma Rixun said with relief: "Master Situ, don't worry, this is just a temporary public opinion. After we kill Dong Zhuo tomorrow, the people will understand the painstaking efforts of the court, and the hearts of the people will naturally return."

"Everyone, are your arrangements in place?" Wang Yun asked.

Everyone stood up together, saying that there was no problem at all.

Now everything is ready, just kill Dong Zhuo.

You must know that Dong Zhuo himself is very skilled in martial arts, and he is protected by Lu Bu. If he escaped, everyone present, including the Jiu Clan, would not be spared.

Inevitably, the eyes focused on Yuan Tan.

Yuan Tan got up, and without warning, he slashed at the desk in front of him like a knife with his palm.

The solid pear wood case fell apart with a few clicks, and said calmly: "Don't worry, everyone, Dong Zhuo will not escape."

Wang Yun and the others were stunned, they didn't expect the eldest son of the Yuan family to be so skilled in martial arts.

At this moment, everyone was full of confidence and felt that the Zhongxing Han Dynasty was right in front of them.

As everyone knows, Dong Zhuo didn't need them at all and hated them, the officials of the Han Dynasty, in order to stabilize the throne in the future. A net has already been laid out, no matter whether they have the current conspiracy or not, they will all be killed without mercy.

The secret meeting in Situ's mansion is over.

Perhaps because of unnecessary attention, everyone separated and left one by one.

"Young master."

On the way out, Yuan Tan heard a familiar voice from the corridor.

It turned out to be Diao Chan.

Waiting for him here so late, is something shameful going to happen?
