The three countries are very nuclear

Chapter 190 Changes in the situation

In early October, when the first snow fell in Yingchuan, Lin Chao, under the guard of Zhang Liao, began to march towards Xuzhou.

Accompanying him are Zheng Xuan, a great Confucian of the generation, and his disciple Cui Yan.

Guo Jia, on the other hand, was unwilling to give up the stable and prosperous life in Yingchuan, and was unwilling to leave no matter what, but he was forced by Lin Chao to make a one-year agreement that day, so he could only leave with Lin Chao.

When he left, Guo Jia reluctantly looked at the land where he had lived for nearly [-] years, and remembered the little ladies who had had a good night with him on this land, and couldn't help crying to the sky.

"I'm afraid that these little ladies will have no one to comfort them in the future! Painful! Sorrowful!"

When it comes to emotion, Guo Jia couldn't help but burst into tears, extremely sad.

"Okay, Guo Fengxiao, when you arrive in Xuzhou, I will ask Lord Xuande to reward you with beautiful wives and concubines, as many as you want."

Lin Chao couldn't bear Guo Jia's voice like howling ghosts and wolves, so he frowned and persuaded.

This guy has been hollowed out by wine since he was young, and sooner or later he will die in a woman's belly!

"Brother Zichu's words are serious!"

Hearing this, Guo Jia immediately wiped away his tears, and said with surprise on his face.

Lin Chao gave a disdainful smile: "That's natural, just a few beauties, and a certain person can still lie to you."

"Then thank you, Brother Zichu!"

Guo Jia saluted Lin Chao very solemnly, and then actually pulled Lin Chao into the car.

"Brother Zichu, let's get in the car quickly. I heard that Duke Xuande is the Lord of Heroes. I can't wait to pay a visit."

Lin Chao sneered, knocked off Guo Jia's hand, and didn't bother to expose his petty thoughts.

When you arrive in Xuzhou, let alone beauties, you won't even be given wine!
Well, I heard that this guy still likes to take drugs, so I have to quit him too, so as not to be a short-lived ghost.

……

At the same time, Luoyang, the capital of the empire, also had a major event.

As early as the second day after Liu Bei left Luoyang, Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan entered the city one after the other.

He Jin was naturally overjoyed to see the two men coming with heavy troops.

Immediately Biao Ding was originally Zhijinwu, and Dong Zhuo was Bingzhou Mu.

Naturally, Dong Zhuo came to Beijing with ill intentions, but Ding Yuan was still loyal to He Jin, and Dong Zhuo only brought 3000 people with him this time.

Therefore, under Ding Yuan's restraint, Dong Zhuo treated He Jin respectfully and temporarily suppressed his ambition.

When He Jin saw that the two warlords obeyed his advice and had the help of his family, he became more and more inflated, frequently intimidated officials in the court, and shouted to beat and kill them.

Shi Changshi lost the backing of Liu Hong, and He Jin had the support of Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan, and there was a huge gap in strength between the two sides.

Therefore, the ten permanent servants had to lean closely beside the Empress Dowager He and the little emperor Liu Bian, trembling with their tails between their legs, and their right to speak in the court plummeted.

Many people who previously attached themselves to eunuchs switched to He Jinmen.

But Dong Zhuo began to take root in Luoyang, made friends with aristocratic families, and cultivated kindness.

On the second day after entering Beijing, Dong Zhuo visited Yuan Kai, the Patriarch of the Yuan family, with generous gifts.

In the second year of Jianning, Dong Zhuo was repeatedly dismissed from office. It was at this middle-aged crisis that Yuan Kai stretched out his hand to give him a hand and enlisted him as the governor of Hedong, which was considered a kindness to him.

Now that Liu Hong has passed away, He Jin, supported by the Yuan family, has gained power, and Yuan Kai has once again become an official tutor, with great power in his hands.Due to emotion and reason, Dong Zhuo had to pay a visit.

During this visit, Dong Zhuo was extremely respectful. When he opened his mouth, he regarded himself as a lackey of Yuan Kai's sect, and treated Yuan Kai with the etiquette of respecting his teacher.

In this regard, Yuan Kai was overjoyed, saying that he did not misread the wrong person back then.

At the same time, he signaled Dong Zhuo to do a good job, and he would be able to be a perfect minister in the future.

After Dong Zhuo left, Yuan Kai summoned Yuan Shao and his brother Yuan Shu to start his own plan.

So in Zhongping Five...

Now it should be called the first year of Guangxi. After the little emperor Liu Bian ascended the throne, he changed the year name to Guangxi and gave amnesty to the world, so the fifth year of Zhongping became the first year of Guangxi.

In mid-September of the first year of Guangxi, He Jin followed Yuan Shao's suggestion. After obtaining the consent of Queen Mother He, he ordered Huangmen General Jian Shuo, who held military power, to be imprisoned. Within a few days, he was executed in prison.

After Jian Shuo died, Liu Hong's Xiyuan Army existed in name only, and was absorbed by He Jin.

The West Garden Army, composed of the Habayashi Army, returned to He Jin's hands after just a few months.

At this point, the Ten Permanent Attendants lost their last reliance on military power, and there were only three thousand guards in the palace under their command.

He Jin even wanted to take the imperial guards into his hands at one point, but this time Empress Dowager He expressed strong opposition.She said that eunuchs are in charge of the palace ban, which is a common practice of the Han family and cannot be changed.

At this time, even the Queen Mother He, who was born as the daughter of a butcher, smelled a hint of danger.

My half-brother has too much appetite, if all the eunuchs are cut off, then the next step may be to deprive him of the right to assist the government.

Empress Dowager He was worried, so she decided to keep the eunuch. At the same time, she issued an imperial edict to order her other elder brother, He Miao, a chariot general, to concurrently serve as Henan Yin, to control part of the military power, so as to counter He Jin's growing power.

He Miao's background is quite strange. He and He Jin are the half-brothers in the legend!

He Jin's mother died early, and his father He Zhen married a widow again, and later gave birth to Queen Mother He.And He Miao, who was born to the widow and her ex-husband, was brought to the He family.

Therefore, Empress Dowager He and He Miao are the same mother and half father, and He Jin is the same father and half mother.

But He Miao and He Jin are real half-brothers...

Not only that, He Miao had always opposed He Jin's killing of eunuchs, and now he was appointed Henan Yin by his sister, anyone with a discerning eye could see what was going on.

But He Miao alone can't handle the alliance of aristocratic families, warlords and relatives.

So in a court meeting, He Jin punished the eunuchs.

Dong Zhuo was the first to express his approval, and he specially asked Li Ru to write a memorial.

Zhongchang servant Zhang Rang and others stole letters and acted in favor, causing chaos in the country... Today, the ministers are ringing bells and drums to enter Luoyang, please accept Rang and others to clean up the filth!

This memorandum was full of murderous intent, it seemed that He Jin wanted to wipe out the eunuchs, but he was actually looking for an excuse so that the Liangzhou elites stationed outside the city could enter Luoyang smoothly.

But such a bluff frightened the shrew Empress Dowager He. She hesitated for a day, but couldn't bear the pressure, dismissed the ten permanent servants and others from their positions, and was about to drive her out of the palace.

Now it's all right, the ten permanent attendants were desperate, they ran to He Jin's mansion together and begged for mercy, hoping that the general would spare their lives, saying that in the future they would definitely follow He Jin's lead.

Facing the eunuch begging for mercy on his knees, He Jin was very satisfied, and at the same time had his own considerations.

The little emperor was still young, and there would always be eunuchs to serve him, even if he killed these people, there would still be others.

Instead of waiting for the rise of the next batch of eunuchs, it is better to keep these guys who are frightened by him, so that they can sit back and relax in the future.

So He Jin gave a gentle reassurance, saying that he would not kill them all.

Hearing this, Zhang Rang and the others burst into tears of gratitude, and kowtowed to thank He Jin for letting them live.
