Chapter 1358: Everyone is Happy! [1] (Thanks: Good job! Bruce)

In the spacious study, Duan Yu sat behind the desk in the main seat, and many lacquerware and goldware were placed on the antique shelf behind him.

His fingers tapped rhythmically on the desk in front of him.

Who killed Cui Lie?

Duan Yu frowned slightly.

Yesterday, when he was looking at his youngest son Duan Tian in Jiaofang Hall, he received news from Liu Bai Tu, saying that the Luoyang court asked to stabilize him, and Dong suggested giving him the title of King.

Of course, Duan Yu didn't care about this title of King. What he cared about was whether Dong would have any additional conditions.

After all, it's not bad to be able to get some actual benefits.

Of course, he was not prepared to accept this title of King.

That's why he rushed back from Jiaofang Hall yesterday.

But he didn't expect to receive the news of Cui Lie's death this morning.

Cui Lie was intercepted and killed at Hongmen Pavilion, not far from Chang'an.

Obviously, this order did not come from him.

"Marquis..."

Li Ru, sitting in the lower position of Duan Yu, bowed slightly and said to Duan Yu: "I think that the person who intercepted and killed Cui Lie... everyone in the court yesterday had suspicion."

"After all... they are now in Chang'an, living in the Chang'an court."

"If..."

Duan Yu stopped his fingers tapping on the table, then took a deep breath.

Duan Yu understood what Li Ru meant by this sentence.

After the Battle of Hangu Pass, the Guanzhong scholar-official clans chose their side.

If, he said if.

If he accepts the amnesty of the Luoyang court now, these people might be liquidated in the future.

Of course, the Guanzhong scholar-official clan collective is not stupid, and they know that this probability is extremely low.

But there is a premise: people don't work for themselves, heaven and earth will destroy them.

Especially when an interest group is formed and deeply bound, some things are like this: if you don't make a decision, someone will make a decision for you.

Cui Lie is dead.

The matter of the Luoyang court's amnesty has gone bankrupt, which is a happy ending for the Guanzhong scholar-official clan group and for the Chang'an court.

It's just that...

Duan Yu doesn't like this feeling a bit. ===== CHAPTER 1360 =====
