South of Luoyang
As a great contributor to the Battle of Mushui Pass and the Battle of Tiger Cage Pass, how could Old Dong not arrange a place for his future grandson-in-law?
The residence he arranged for Gu Yi was a luxurious and top-notch residence.
At the same time, he also assigned some servants to Gu Yi.
It could be said that there was nothing big or small.
What was worth mentioning was…
Not long after Gu Yi moved in.
Hwa Xiong brought a roasted hare and a roasted pheasant with him.
After three rounds of wine.
Hwa Xiong was already half-drunk.
He burped and said in a daze,
"Gu Yi, what do you think Li Jue and Guo Si would think if they knew that I am now a higher official than them?”
Li Wei, Guo Si.
Just like Fan Chou and Zhang Ji, they were also known as the 'Western Liang Army F4'.
However, the difference was…
Compared to the gentle Zhang Ji and the boorish Fan Chou.
Li Jue and Guo Si were undoubtedly more hot-tempered.
Their ambitions were also much greater.
In history, the counterattack against Chang 'an and the extermination of Wang Yun were led by these two people.
However, after killing Wang Yun, the two of them completely entered a state of freedom.
The reputation of the Western Liang Army was not good to begin with. When Dong Zhuo was still alive, he had some restrictions.
Dong Zhuo was dead, and under the leadership of Li Jue and Guo Si, the Western Liang Army became a rat on the street, hated by everyone.
However, this was not the place that was the most troublesome.
What made people extremely speechless was that…
With hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command, Li Jue and Guo Si had managed to turn the Western Liang Army from a top warlord to a third-rate warlord in five years.
In the third year of Jian 'an, which was 198 AD, Li Jue and Guo Si were killed by the small vassals in the pass.
What was the composition of those small vassals in Guanzhong?
It was a small independent force that rebelled with Bian Zhang, Han Sui, Ma Teng, and the others more than ten years ago.
In other words, most of these guys were defeated by Old Dong back then.
Yet, even this group of people could still press Li Jue and Guo Si to the ground!
From this, it could be seen that Li Jue and Guo Si were not fit to be lords.
The Xi Liang Army had lost everything to these two people.
However…
Now, because of Gu Yi's existence.
It was highly likely that the Western Liang Army would not experience such a decline again.
However, Gu Yi did not know yet.
Li Jue and Guo Si were extremely jealous.
If the two of them knew that Hwa Xiong's position was already above them, they would probably be filled with jealousy.
Not to mention Gu Yi, who was already highly valued when he first joined Dong Zhuo's camp.
……
at the same time
In the Prime Minister's Mansion
Dong Zhuo and Li Ru sat opposite each other.
They were discussing a marriage.
Gu Yi and Dong Bai were the main characters of the wedding.
Dong Zhuo said,
"Wenyou, what do you think about me bringing Bai 'er to meet Gu Yi tomorrow?”
"With Gu Yi's intelligence, he'll be able to capture Bai 'er's heart very soon.”
Dong Zhuo regarded Gu Yi highly.
Old Dong knew his granddaughter Dong Bai's personality very well.
He was indeed a little unruly on normal days, but that was only on the surface.
Dong Bai's father and mother passed away early.
In the past few years, Old Dong had been busy putting down the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the Liangzhou Rebellion.
He always felt that he owed his granddaughter Dong Bai a lot.
The Xi Liang Army was filled with rough men.
The only two exceptions were Li Ru and Jia Xu.
However, these two were old enough to be Dong Bai's father.
Li Ru was Dong Zhuo's eldest son-in-law.
He could be considered Dong Bai's uncle.
Now.
Gu Yi was the perfect grandson-in-law.
He was talented and handsome.
Old Dong didn't want to miss this rare grandson-in-law.
"Prime Minister, Gu Yi has just arrived in Luoyang.”
"Why don't we wait for him to familiarize himself with the surroundings first?”
"Besides, Gu Yi hasn't married yet.”
"Before getting married, you have to take off your crown first.”
Li Ru was more thoughtful than Old Dong.
In reality, Gu Yi, who came from Planet Blue's 21st Century, was a complete black market.
Not to mention Luoyang, he had never even been to any of the other cities of the Great Han Dynasty, much less be familiar with them.
"Wenyou, you're right."
"Gu Yi is a tough guy.”
"He has already reached the age where he can have a crown, but there has never been anyone who can help him preside over the coronation ceremony.”
"What do you think of that old fellow Cai Bo Xin?”
Dong Zhuo thought of Cai Yong.
As a leading figure in the literary world of the Han Dynasty, Cai Yong's level of education was needless to say.
Hearing this, Li Ru pondered for a moment and felt that Cai Yong was indeed a good candidate.
Moreover, Cai Yong was one of the few people in Luoyang who didn't oppose Dong Zhuo.
Of course, Wang Yun was also considered by Li Ru and Dong Zhuo.
However, compared to Cai Yong, Wang Yun was only good at being an official. He was not good at learning.
After making up his mind, Old Dong decided to bring Gu Yi to Cai Yong to get a name.
After that, they would discuss the marriage between him and Dong Bai.
