Chapter 72: Some unexpected uses of Hua Xiong
"Hua Xiong, what a reckless man!"
In Luoyang City, there was a famous and elegant man who said with a smile.
“I have always been rude and used to chop everything I encountered with a knife.
They thought that Luoyang was the same place as where they were before...
It was a great pleasure to chop with the knife, but he would be confused and feel uncomfortable afterwards..."
Someone responded, with a strong hint of sarcasm in his voice.
"How could such a barbaric and foolish person be able to hold off Yuan Benchu and his men for such a long time...
In the past, when have we ever taken such dog-like people seriously?
Now, in order to get rid of this barbarian, Deyu has to exchange his life for his own...
It is not worth exchanging the nobleness of Deyu for the life of a lowly barbarian. It is really sad..."
Someone sighed loudly.
As soon as these words were spoken, the other people also sighed.
“That’s why we need to help Benchu as soon as possible and get rid of that thief Dong Zhuo!
The right thing to do is to let the power of the Han Dynasty return to the hands of scholars like us as soon as possible.
Only in this way can the world be at peace..."
…
"Hahaha……"
Here in Lu Bu's mansion, Lu Bu couldn't help laughing out loud, he was very happy.
"Hua Xiong, this thief, is really asking for his own death!"
He spoke out loud, seeming happy.
How dare he kill the famous scholar Wu Qiong!
Moreover, Wu Qiong, a famous scholar, went to reward the troops on behalf of Dong Zhuo.
Although he was born in a border area, he was somewhat resistant to celebrities.
This resistance mainly came from the fact that he was a warrior from the border area. In front of the celebrities, he naturally felt that he could not hold his head up and was inferior to them.
Even at this moment, when he actually had more power than many celebrities, it was still the same.
Most of these famous people in Luoyang City ignored Lu Bu, and the two sides had little interaction.
However, after learning that Hua Xiong had actually killed a famous scholar like Wu Qiong, Lu Bu was shocked and felt that Hua Xiong's action was extremely stupid.
Are celebrities so easy to kill?
Don’t you think that people like his adoptive father, who hold great power, are usually polite to these celebrities?
Especially when dealing with great Confucian scholars like Cai Yong, he was extremely polite. Wouldn't he kill a famous scholar easily?
How dare Hua Xiong do such a thing?
You really don't know how to live or die!
"You've only fought a few battles that were not worthy of being on the stage, and you're already so proud of yourself. You don't know who you are!"
Lu Bu's face was full of mockery.
Upon hearing this, Yan said, "So, isn't the opportunity that my husband is waiting for coming?"
Lu Bu smiled and said, "Of course!
Even if Hua Xiong doesn't die this time, he will definitely not be able to guard Sishui Pass anymore.
Looking at all the generals under my adoptive father, they are all good-for-nothings!
Only your husband is qualified to lead troops to guard Sishui Pass.
By then, I will definitely defeat Yuan Shao and his gang in one battle, and let those rebels know that I, Lu Bu, am a hero!"
As he said this, he couldn't help but feel a sense of heroism.
He looked around and didn't see his daughter, Lu Lingqi. He immediately picked up Yan and closed the door...
"Husband, why are you..."
Yan exclaimed slightly.
During this period of time, my husband cannot mention Hua Xiong!
When talking about Hua Xiong, whether he was gritting his teeth and full of anger, or like now, full of joy and great enthusiasm.
There is only one final result.
It's just like now.
Sometimes up to three or four times a day!
Even though Yan was born in a border county and was strong, he was still somewhat overwhelmed by the continuous attacks...
Where Dong Zhuo was, Shangshu Zhou Bi, dressed in Confucian robes, was talking to Dong Zhuo.
"Prime Minister, Deyu, a dignified city gate captain, was actually beheaded in public like this.
Governor Hua did win many great victories, suppressing the bandits in Guandong so much that they could not even raise their heads.
He guarded Sishui Pass and protected Luoyang, which can be said to be a great achievement.
However, Governor Hua's current actions are excessive.
He was an old general under the Prime Minister, and his subordinates should not have said much.
But this time, he was able to directly kill the city gate captain Wu Deyu because the prime minister did not promote him.
Deyu went to reward the troops on behalf of the Prime Minister...
This shows how arrogant and domineering Governor Hua is !
The harm of having talent without virtue is far greater than having virtue without talent.
The reward bestowed upon Governor Hua by the Prime Minister was truly glorious, but Governor Hua was still dissatisfied and even went so far as to kill the envoy sent by the Prime Minister to reward the troops.
Now, the army, the most powerful weapon in the world, is in the hands of a man who harbors resentment towards the Prime Minister, but it is somewhat...worrying.
Not to mention, Sishui Pass is such an important place..."
Zhou Bi looked at Dong Zhuo and spoke in a heavy voice. He seemed heartbroken and worried about the country and the people.
He was certain in his heart that Hua Xiong would be skinned alive this time, if not killed!
At least he definitely can't stay at Sishui Pass!
Because what this involves is too sensitive.
At this time, it was really enough to stir Dong Zhuo's heartstrings!
With Wu Qiong's selfless sacrifice, and my own subtle instigation behind the scenes, if I can't take down Hua Xiong, I can really die!
After he said this , he found that Dong Zhuo, who was furious just now, did not say a word.
This made him a little confused.
He looked up subconsciously and saw Dong Zhuo sitting there, staring at him with an intriguing look in his eyes.
When Zhou Bi saw this, his heart skipped a beat. Some bad thoughts suddenly came to his mind and he panicked in an instant.
However, as a Shangshu and a famous scholar, he is quite good at cultivating his qi.
At least he looked calm on the surface, as if he didn't notice Dong Zhuo's intriguing gaze.
"You came here to tell me this because Hua Xiong killed Wu Qiong and you want to avenge Wu Qiong, right?"
Dong Zhuo stared at Zhou Bi for a while and then spoke.
When Zhou Bi, who was extremely panicked, heard Dong Zhuo say this, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
It turns out that Dong Zhuo was aware that he and Wu Qiong had joined forces to get rid of Hua Xiong!
"Prime Minister, Deyu and I had a very good relationship. Now that he has been killed for no reason, I am deeply upset.
So I want to ask the Prime Minister to punish Hua Xiong as he deserves.
Of course, Hua Xiong's action was a great , and it was also true..."
I thought everything was fine, but after the voice fell, I found that Dong Zhuo's gaze towards me became more intriguing.
Immediately, this intriguing gaze turned cold, angry, and full of murderous intent!
“Since you have such a good relationship with Wu Qiong.
It seems that you are also involved in the conspiracy between Wu Qiong and the bandits in Guandong, who are trying to kill my generals with their own death!"
Dong Zhuo's voice filled with suppressed anger rang out, immediately shocking Zhou Bi, who could no longer pretend!
