Chapter 74: The Inspector of Bingzhou, Dong Zhuo!

The middle-aged scholar was none other than someone else.

It was Li Ru.

"Lord, a letter came from Liangzhou, saying that they have started fighting again in Wuwei recently."

"The Shaodang Qiang, Baima Qiang, County Magistrate Qiang, and other tribes are attacking each other."

"The letter says that it has already caused hundreds of casualties, and it looks like it is still expanding."

"It is estimated that it is very likely to involve other tribes."

Dong Zhuo, sitting in the main seat, tapped the table in front of him with one hand.

Dong Yi sat on the side drinking tea.

Niu Fu stood at the entrance of the main hall with his head drooping.

"Early spring every year is the season for fighting over pastures," Dong Zhuo said in a deep voice: "It is normal to fight."

"We haven't been in Liangzhou for the past two years, and there is no one to mediate in the middle. There will only be more and more wars."

Li Ru stood in front of the hall and nodded silently: "Yes."

"For the past two years, the Lord has been the Inspector of Bingzhou, and your control over Liangzhou is not as good as before. Even if you mediate, I am afraid it will not be as good as before."

"It's just that this subordinate is worried that once the conflict between the Qiang tribes increases, it might involve the Lord's foundation in Longxi."

"After all...... that is where the Lord's foundation lies."

"And now the imperial court has no time to take care of Liangzhou. This subordinate is worried that the situation will become more and more serious."

Dong Zhuo frowned.

This is indeed a difficult problem.

Although he is now the Inspector of Bingzhou.

But his foundation is not in Bingzhou.

And over the past few years, he has made no achievements in Bingzhou.

He is an Inspector of a province in name, but he is restricted everywhere and cannot let go of his hands and feet.

Even if he wants to return to Liangzhou to take office now, he cannot get away.

He cannot take care of both ends.

This makes him very worried.

"Father."

Just when Dong Zhuo was worried.

Dong Yi, sitting on the side, called out.

Dong Zhuo turned to look at Dong Yi: "Does Yi'er have something to say?"

Dong Yi nodded and said: "Father, your daughter heard some words today. I don't know if I should say them or not."

Dong Zhuo smiled: "Yi'er has always been intelligent. Maybe what you say will be a good solution."

Li Ru twisted his beard and listened silently.

Dong Yi recalled all the words Duan Yu said today.

Then she organized her thoughts.

Then she said: "Father, your daughter knows what you are seeking, which is to enter the court as an official and join the imperial court."

"But after all these years, it has been a bumpy road, and you have always been hovering at the door and unable to enter."

"Father, is the imperial court, the ranks of the public officials, and the positions of the Nine Ministers really that good?"

Dong Yi shook her head.

She didn't know if the Nine Ministers were good, and she didn't know if the Three Lords were good.

Maybe she didn't understand what men were looking for at all.

"Your daughter doesn't know if the public officials are good, but your daughter can see that Father's smiles are getting fewer and fewer now."

Dong Zhuo was silent.

Li Ru's expression was also a bit serious.

"Father, the situation in the court is turbulent now. It looks like there is no wind or waves, but in fact, it is already riddled with holes."

"If there is any mistake, the building will collapse."

"At that time, will the positions of the officials really be the same as before?"

"In the late years of the dynasty, all official titles are empty things."

"Only one's own strength is the foundation to ensure the prosperity of the family."

"Father is now seeking far away, seeking the moon in the water and the flowers in the mirror. It is better to hold the long sword tightly and wait for the time to move!"

"When the building really collapses, why worry about not having a bright future?"

Hiss!

A gasp sounded in the hall.

Dong Zhuo and Li Ru both widened their eyes and looked at Dong Yi.

Li Ru was extremely surprised in his heart.

These words......

If these words came from a man's mouth, or were said in another way.

If Dong Yi were a man.

Then the Dong family's business could only be inherited by Dong Yi.

"Yi'er......" Dong Zhuo widened his eyes and looked at Dong Yi, asking in disbelief: "These...... these words......"

Before Dong Zhuo could finish his words, Dong Yi shook her head and said: "Father, these words were not said by me."

"But......"

"But by someone else." ===== CHAPTER 76 =====
