Chapter 91

At the same time, he also received the help of Xun Wenruo and others from Yingchuan.

Under Xun Yu's suggestion, he carried out the suppression and reorganization of the Qingzhou Huang Jin.

His strength was therefore significantly improved.

However.

In this process.

Cao Cao heavily relied on the Yingchuan faction, thereby gradually alienating the Yanzhou noble family group led by Chen Gong and Zhang Miao.

You must know.

The reason why Cao Cao could be recommended as the Inspector of Yanzhou.

The support of Zhang Miao, Chen Gong, and others was indispensable.

Now.

Cao Cao had just integrated Yanzhou with one foot, and with the other, he wanted to kick the Yanzhou noble family group away.

How could the Yanzhou noble family group accept such behavior?

The seeds of contradiction were thus sown.

When they break through the soil, they will surely deal a fatal blow to Cao Cao, who is currently in a period of flourishing development!

Changancheng

Back courtyard of the Prime Minister's residence

Dong Zhuo was dealing with his second daughter, Dong Yi, with a helpless expression.

Ever since Niu Fu was dismissed and returned to Changancheng, Old Dong had never reappointed him to an official post.

Regarding this, Dong Yi finally could not sit still.

She decided to take action herself.

She begged her father to restore her husband Niu Fu to his original position.

Even if he couldn't be restored to his original position, he couldn't be left without any position at all, right?

Ever since his defeat in Liangzhou, Niu Fu had almost become the laughingstock of the entire Changancheng.

Dong Yi also could not hold her head up because of her incompetent husband, Niu Fu.

Now.

Gu Yi was about to return in triumph.

But Niu Fu's official position had been stripped away completely, and he had become a commoner.

As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison.

"Father, you cannot favor one over the other."

"Although Niu Fu is incompetent, he is also your son-in-law."

"Even if you do it for your daughter's sake, you cannot leave him without any position, right?"

Dong Yi spoke to Dong Zhuo.

She knew that Old Dong was the most protective of his own and valued relationships the most.

Although he had previously stripped Niu Fu of his official position because of anger.

But as long as Niu Fu turned over a new leaf from now on, presumably Old Dong would still be willing to give him this chance.

However.

It was a pity.

Dong Yi miscalculated this time.

Even though she pleaded with Old Dong, the latter remained unmoved.

Seeing this, Dong Yi could not help but become a bit anxious.

"Father!"

"Could it be that Niu Fu, this second son-in-law who has followed you for more than ten years, is not even as good as a granddaughter's husband who has joined for less than two years?"

It would have been fine if Dong Yi hadn't said this.

Once she said this.

Old Dong became even angrier from the bottom of his heart!

Originally, Old Dong had given Niu Fu more than a hundred thousand troops to attack Liangzhou, which was almost a guaranteed victory.

But how did this fellow Niu Fu repay Old Dong?

Because of his defeat, Han Sui almost grew even stronger in Liangzhou!

Xu Rong, Zhao Zilong, Zhang He, and others were also almost killed by this pig-teammate Niu Fu!

If Niu Fu were not Old Dong's second son-in-law.

I am afraid that the entire army would have mutinied long ago due to their dissatisfaction with Niu Fu.

Although it hasn't reached that point yet.

But Old Dong's own prestige had been affected to a certain extent because of Niu Fu's defeat.

Not killing Niu Fu, but only stripping him of his official position, was already a very light punishment!

Yet Dong Yi was still not satisfied?

And even used Gu Yi, this granddaughter's husband, as an excuse?

Who is Gu Yi?

Since joining until now, he has made countless contributions for Old Dong!

Throughout the entire army, there is no one who does not admire him.

Moreover.

Dong Bai is the only descendant left by Old Dong's deceased eldest son, and Old Dong has always favored her extremely.

Loving the house and its crow, Old Dong also treated Gu Yi, this granddaughter's husband, like his own family.

Such a capable granddaughter's husband, I am afraid that even if you searched the entire Great Han with a lantern, you wouldn't find a second one.

And what is Niu Fu?

He is a damn incompetent person who only knows how to throw his weight around in the army by relying on the background of his father-in-law and wife!

Comparing the two.

Even Old Dong's gaze towards Dong Yi became somewhat annoyed.

"Yuan'er, I don't want to lecture you."

"But as Niu Fu's wife, shouldn't you be urging him in your daily life?"

"Look at Bai Er and Gu Yi, then look at you and Niu Fu, what kind of behavior is this?"

Looking at his second daughter, Dong Yi, standing before him, Old Dong sighed deeply.

Hearing this.

Dong Yi was almost stunned!

How did Old Dong's anger burn from Niu Fu to her?

"Damn Dong Bai! Damn Gu Yi! It's all your fault!"

Dong Yi cursed angrily in her heart.

If it weren't for these two people.

How could she and her husband Niu Fu have such a bad impression in front of Old Dong?

Knowing that there was no way to persuade Old Dong to reappoint Niu Fu today, Dong Yi had no choice but to prepare to leave the Prime Minister's residence in a dejected manner.

However.

Just at this moment.

Suddenly, two of Old Dong's guards ran in from outside and reported to Old Dong:

"My Lord! The army has returned in triumph from Liangzhou and is only ten miles away from Changancheng!"

Hearing this.

The expression on Old Dong's face immediately looked much better.

The gloom brought by Dong Yi just now was also swept away.

He stood up from his seat and ordered the guards beside him:

"Prepare the carriage, I am going to welcome the army back outside the city myself!"

"Hahahaha, I wonder how this kid Lin Zhi has been doing these days; after he returns, I'm afraid Bai Er will definitely feel sorry for him."
