Chapter 80

~3 min read 545 words

"Many thanks to Young Friend Gu for pointing out the maze today."

"If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been troubled by this for I don't know how long."

Li Ru thanked Gu Yi from the bottom of his heart.

As the manager of the Xiliang Army and Dong Zhuo's eldest son-in-law, Li Ru was always worried about the future of the Xiliang Army.

As the saying goes, "the authorities are confused, the bystanders are clear."

Gu Yi joined halfway and didn't know how many twists and turns Dong Zhuo's force experienced before entering Luoyang.

And Li Ru, as a trusted aide who had followed Dong Zhuo for many years.

Naturally understood what the city of Luoyang meant to the entire Dong Zhuo force.

If Luoyang were abandoned, everyone would definitely be reluctant.

After years of wind and rain, the hard-won crystallization of effort, who could bear to discard it directly?

But precisely because of this psychology, even a wise man like Li Ru inevitably fell into the predicament of being confused as an authority.

Although Luoyang was hard-won.

But the truly valuable things in Luoyang city were the Han emperor and the court officials, as well as the banner of Han orthodoxy.

Moving the capital to Chang'an, this banner could also continue to exist.

But if he continued to guard Luoyang and not let go, it would be extremely unfavorable for the future development of Dong Zhuo's army.

To put it bluntly, Luoyang was in the Guandong region.

It could be considered the core city of the Guandong region.

But Dong Zhuo and the Xiliang Army were just outsiders.

The Guanzhong region, with Chang'an as the core, should be Dong Zhuo's true base.

After figuring this out, Li Ru decided to submit the plan for moving the capital to Dong Zhuo as soon as possible.

Subsequently.

Li Ru chatted with Gu Yi for a while longer.

Looking at Gu Yi's departing back, Li Ru couldn't help but sigh:

"Truly, the younger generation is to be feared."

And meanwhile.

In the back hall of the Li residence.

Dong Yuan was also chatting with Dong Bai.

Looking at Dong Bai's thoughtful face, Dong Yuan teased:

"Whose handsome young man is it that has hooked our Bai Er's soul away?"

Hearing this, Dong Bai instantly blushed and said:

"Aunt, don't talk nonsense."

"There isn't even a stroke of the character yet."

"Besides, I don't know what kind of feeling that Gu Yi has toward me."

Facing Dong Bai's response.

Dong Yuan, as an aunt, couldn't help but have a feeling of "a grown daughter cannot be kept."

In reality, in Dong Yuan's view, Dong Bai's worry was completely redundant.

With Dong Bai's figure and appearance, how could Gu Yi not be moved?

Furthermore, who is Dong Bai?

That is Dong Zhuo's own granddaughter!

The term "affection across generations" was vividly displayed on Dong Zhuo.

From childhood to adulthood, other girls might be forced by their parents to learn needlework and such.

But here at Dong Zhuo's, Dong Bai did whatever she wanted.

He didn't force her to do anything at all.

Gu Yi was a junior valued by Dong Zhuo, handsome, and quite talented.

The two together were clearly a match made in heaven!
