Chapter 181: Jia Xu shocked: I know who the heir is! (Must read)

~5 min read 884 words

Outside Chang'an City

Gu Yi returned to this place with tens of thousands of soldiers.

Looking at the Chang'an city gate, which they had been separated from for three months, the generals couldn't help but feel a sense of unreality.

Especially Xu Rong, Zhao Zilong, and Zhang He.

If it weren't for Gu Yi's prompt decision to lead three thousand Flying Bear troops to support them in Fufeng.

I'm afraid that at this moment, the three of them would have already turned into bones.

Of course.

There were also people in the team who had come to Chang'an for the first time.

Such as Ma Teng, Yan Xing, Cheng Gongying, and others.

Looking at the towering Chang'an city wall before them.

The three were filled with emotion.

"Linzhi!"

Old Dong, with Li Ru, Fan Chou, and others, quickly came to welcome Gu Yi.

Seeing his precious grandson-in-law return safe and sound, and having made a great contribution, the smile on Old Dong's face did not fade for a long time.

"This old man won't delay your time; Bai'er is waiting for you in the back, go quickly."

Old Dong came to Gu Yi's side and said with a grin.

The latter understood.

He handed the army over to Old Dong and immediately ran toward a carriage not far away.

Sitting in that carriage was Dong Bai, who had been eagerly looking forward to her husband's return.

"Husband~~~"

After being separated for three months, Dong Bai's longing for Gu Yi had long been like the surging river, continuous and endless.

The two returned to the residence.

They stayed busy in the room until the afternoon before they finally rested.

During this period, Dong Bai couldn't handle it and even called Diao Chan over to help her.

Herding one sheep is herding, and herding two sheep is also herding; Gu Yi naturally wouldn't refuse.

After resting.

Gu Yi, served by Dong Bai, dressed neatly.

He went to the Chancellor's residence to briefly describe the summary of the recent days to Old Dong.

In the Chancellor's residence

Besides Gu Yi, Li Ru and Jia Xu were also waiting there.

During the time Gu Yi was on the expedition, Jia Xu had a rare period of leisure.

But... now that Gu Yi had returned.

I'm afraid it wouldn't be long before this old fox, Jia Xu, would be used as a tool again.

"Linzhi, Liangzhou has been pacified."

"But this old man feels that it should be handed over to someone who is both capable and reliable to go and sit in command."

"I wonder, do you have any suitable candidates?"

Old Dong was sincerely asking Gu Yi for advice.

Because the matter of Niu Fu gave Old Dong a headache.

He realized a very serious problem.

That is, sometimes one cannot blindly appoint people based on nepotism.

Like Niu Fu, although his relationship with Old Dong was very close.

His true ability was really somewhat unsatisfactory.

Liangzhou was Old Dong's place of origin and an important rear base.

The person sitting in command of Liangzhou must be both wise and brave, but at the same time, must be loyal to Old Dong.

Looking at the entire army.

Hua Xiong, Li Jue, Guo Si, Fan Chou, and Zhang Ji, although these five had sufficient status and seniority.

But... the five were not particularly skilled in strategy.

If Liangzhou were handed over to one of these five, once an emergency situation occurred, I'm afraid it would not be handled in a timely manner.

As for Niu Fu and Dong Min.

Although these two had a close relationship with Old Dong.

But Niu Fu was a complete disaster.

Dong Min was a person with a weak personality.

And he already shouldered the responsibility of sitting in command of Luoyang; it was impossible to transfer him to Liangzhou.

The rest were Li Ru and Gu Yi.

Undoubtedly, Old Dong could not do without either of these two.

Li Ru was the housekeeper of the Dong Zhuo Army.

With Li Ru there, various affairs would not go wrong.

Gu Yi was the "Strategist-in-Chief" of the Dong Zhuo Army!

With Gu Yi there, Old Dong viewed the Guandong warlords as mere clay chickens and pottery dogs!

But precisely because of this.

The task of sitting in command of Liangzhou was truly something that made Dong Zhuo struggle.

It couldn't be... let the "great filial son" Lu Bu go, right?

That would only happen if Dong Zhuo's head was caught in a door.

After listening to what Old Dong said, Gu Yi thought for a moment.

Immediately, he said:

"My lord, actually I have a very good candidate I can recommend."

"But this person is not from Liangzhou."

"If he is allowed to sit in command of Liangzhou, there will certainly be some voices of opposition in the army."

"However, if you truly intend to let him sit in command of Liangzhou, presumably you will build Liangzhou into an ideal rear base for yourself!"

Old Dong and Li Ru hurriedly asked:

"Linzhi, speak quickly, who is this person?"

Gu Yi smiled and replied:

"This person is none other than Xu Rong!"

"Looking at the army, there is more than one person who is both wise and brave besides Xu Rong." ===== CHAPTER 182 =====
