Chapter 1082

Inside Jiade Hall.

Empress Dowager Dong, wearing a black dress and a ponytail, was sitting beside the dragon desk in the main hall.

And Liu Xie, who was only four years old, was kneeling behind the dragon desk, lying on the dragon desk with a brush in one hand, writing something on a piece of white paper.

Empress Dowager Dong sat on the side and watched.

On the left and right sides, there were two maids standing on the side, holding fans and fanning gently.

"Empress Dowager."

Jian Shuo, who arrived at the hall, bowed to Empress Dowager Dong, and then turned to bow to Liu Xie: "Your Highness Crown Prince."

Empress Dowager Dong turned her head to look at Jian Shuo.

"Empress Dowager, I just received news that the Liangzhou Shepherd and Marquis of Ji, Duan Yu, has brought troops from Liangzhou to Luoyang and is currently in Xinan County."

Jian Shuo looked worried when he spoke.

And Empress Dowager Dong's face changed when she heard Jian Shuo's words.

Duan Yu!

"Didn't he... already let Bingzhou Inspector Ding Yuan block him at Hangu Pass?" Empress Dowager Dong frowned and asked.

"Yes." Jian Shuo nodded and said: "The messenger said that Bingzhou Inspector Ding Yuan died at Hangu Pass, and later several of his subordinates opened the gates and let Duan Yu in."

"He... what a big courage!" Empress Dowager Dong scolded: "He actually dared to kill imperial officials without authorization, defy imperial orders, and bring troops into Luoyang; does Duan Yu want to rebel!"

"Jian Shuo, you immediately summon the Grand Tutor to the palace and let him lead troops to suppress him."

Jian Shuo, who was bowing his head, twitched his mouth imperceptibly.

Suppress?

It would be good if Duan Yu was so easy to suppress.

Although the troops of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun are near Luoyang now, if they really fight, can they really control the Liangzhou troops and Duan Yu?

Not necessarily.

"Empress Dowager, the humble general thinks that it is not appropriate to do so for the time being."

"Duan Yu's troops are still staying in Xinan County and show no signs of going to Luoyang; if troops are sent to suppress him at this time, I am afraid it will directly force Duan Yu to rebel, which will be counterproductive."

After the impulse, Empress Dowager Dong was thoughtful and felt that what Jian Shuo said made some sense.

"Empress Dowager, Duan Yu was summoned to Luoyang by Grand General He Jin, and the Grand General has the right to mobilize troops; if we send troops to suppress him, it will make us look guilty."

Empress Dowager Dong nodded slowly and said: "What you said also makes sense."

"But Duan Yu must be guarded against." Jian Shuo continued: "The Empress Dowager can ask the Grand Tutor to mobilize troops and let Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun lead troops to Luoyang to station and defend the city, so as to guard against Duan Yu."

"However..."

"However what?" Empress Dowager Dong looked at Jian Shuo and said: "If you have anything to say, just say it."

"Yes, Empress Dowager." Jian Shuo arched his hands and said: "However, the humble general thinks that such delay is not a way; I am afraid there will be changes after a long time."

"Duan Yu came here under the summons of the Grand General, and the Grand General's intention is to assist Shi Hou as the Crown Prince to inherit the throne; to solve this matter thoroughly, I am afraid it needs to be solved from the root."

Root?

"How to solve it?" Empress Dowager Dong looked at Jian Shuo and asked. ===== CHAPTER 1084 =====
