Chapter 309
"Dong Zhuo refused to hand over his military power?"

Liu Hong frowned when he saw the letter Huangfusong presented.

"What the hell is he trying to do?"

"If you don't hand over the military power, is it because you want to rebel!"

When Liu Hong got angry, he coughed uncontrollably.

This coughing made him feel as if he was about to cough up his lungs.

His face was flushed red, and his complexion was extremely ugly.

On the side Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others hurriedly brought the divine water.

After Liu Hong drank it, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty, I don't think Dong Zhuo is such an ambitious man. He didn't want to hand over the military power to Huangfusong. This matter is indeed his fault."

"But there is nothing hidden about this matter."

"Dong Zhuo's army was originally composed of barbarians brought out from Liangzhou. This rebellion was also led by people from Liangzhou."

"If Dong Zhuo hadn't been the general, those soldiers who suppressed him, I'm afraid these people would have different thoughts in their hearts."

"Now, if we ignore Dong Zhuo's thoughts and force those barbarians to follow Huangfusong, I'm afraid it will be a bad thing and a disaster."

"And Bingzhou, where Dong Zhuo will take office, is not a safe place."

"If he doesn't have these personal guards, I'm afraid it will take a lot of time and a lot of money to subdue those Huns."

"It's better to let him take some of these soldiers away with peace of mind now."

"As the basis for him to suppress those Xiongnu, considering the great kindness of His Majesty, and the connection between Dong Zhuo and Mr. Dong Zhuo, he should not dare to do anything too outrageous, and I hope His Majesty will see clearly."

Liu Hong rubbed his swollen head vigorously.

He has been too sensitive about military power recently.

Now that Zhang Rang and others have said this, he really doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with it.

So Liu Hong waved his hand and said, "Since that's the case, let's do as you said."

"However, although Dong Zhuo has no rebellious heart, his behavior is inappropriate and should be severely punished. Let's forget it this time. We just need to let him know where he went wrong this time."

Zhang Rang and others retreated respectfully.

Immediately, they drew up an extremely harsh imperial edict, which severely reprimanded Dong Zhuo.

In the end, he was only allowed [-] soldiers and horses, and asked him to take him to Bingzhou to take office.

Dong Zhuo looked at the extremely severe wording in the edict before him, and felt extremely resentful in his heart for a while.

Especially the fact that he was only allowed to take five thousand soldiers to Bingzhou made him feel very unhappy.

But he also knew he was wrong about this matter.

From the [-] soldiers and horses, he selected [-] elite soldiers, and then led them to Bingzhou without hesitation.

Along the way, Dong Zhuo didn't know why.

He always felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.

It seemed that if he really left on this trip, he might miss something that should belong to him.

This made him wonder for a moment what it meant.

But he didn't think much of it.

Only after Li Ru got farther and farther away from Luoyang, he looked in the direction of Luoyang from a distance, with a smile full of expectation on his face.

"I have done everything I need to do. I hope that what I am looking forward to will eventually appear."

……

"What does this mean?"

Qin Yu, who was far away in Lingling County, looked at the news from Luoyang and didn't know how to evaluate it for a while.

Dong Zhuo actually went straight to Jinyang City, the prefecture of Bingzhou without any hesitation.

Become the new state pastor.

The conflict between He Jin and Jian Shuo intensifies.

Although Jian Shuo became the marshal after setting up the Xiyuan Army, He Jin's generals were also subject to his restraint.

But the conflict between them did not stop.

On the contrary, the struggle for power has become more intense.

Seeing that the eunuchs are powerful, Liu Hong intends to lean towards Jian Shuo and others. He Jin is forced to join forces with the scholars and stand on the opposite side of the eunuchs again.

In April, Liu Hong died.

Although Qin Yu already knew that Liu Hong would end like this.

But when he received the news from Luoyang City, he still sighed.

I thought that Liu Hong should meet him again before he died.

Qin Yu even thought that after seeing Liu Hong again, he would definitely see something from his entry.

And if he has the ability to revise Liu Hong's entry, as in the past, if he can extend his life.

Then should we modify it for him?

This matter once troubled Qin Yu for a long time.

Until now, Qin Yu has not made a real decision.

I wanted to take one step at a time.

it's good now.

Even such things are omitted.

Before Liu Hong died, he probably didn't even think that he would die.

Although Shenshui does have the effect of healing injuries to a certain extent, it can't really fill the gap in the body.

And Qin Yu felt that Liu Hong's death might not be that simple.

If there is no Shenshui.

Liu Hong may also have a premonition of his own death when he was seriously ill.

And now.

Judging from the information Qin Yu has collected.

Liu Hong himself obviously never thought that he would die.

He is not the same as old man Yang Ci.

Although the old man was in the last stage of his life, he was free from illness and disaster.

But his life has come to an end, he clearly foresees his own death.

Obviously, Liu Hong didn't know.

If he really knew that he was going to die, how could he not send someone to look for Qin Yu?

Doesn't he want Qin Yu, a god, to renew his life?

"Liu Hong is dead, now it should be the time when Zuo Ci's luck will be shaken?"

"I don't know what level he will reach if he breaks through the realm again."

"Isn't it possible that he would be able to take advantage of this wave of turbulent luck, directly come to the Shattered Void, and ascend to the fairy world?"

Thinking of this, Qin Yu suddenly felt that this seemingly unreliable idea was not so unreliable.

If it wasn't for the thunder calamity, Zuo Ci didn't have to choose such a time, did he?

He was thinking about Zuo Ci here.

And in Luoyang city.

The situation was far more complicated than Qin Yu imagined.

Liu Hong died too fast and too suddenly.

So much so that after he died, he didn't decide in advance who would inherit his throne.

He Jin naturally favored Liu Bian.

He is He Jin's nephew.

He Jin didn't want to push Liu Bian to the throne, did he still want to push Liu Xie?

It's just that Liu Bian was not raised in the palace after he was born.

Instead, he was fostered in a Taoist home.

He was not educated by the emperor's family since he was a child, but he was influenced by many Taoist cultures.

Compared with Liu Xie, who was born by Wang Meiren and raised by Queen Mother Dong.

Liu Bian was much worse than Liu Xie in terms of manners and etiquette.

As an emperor who throws his hands away.

He naturally prefers Liu Xie, a son who doesn't have to worry about himself, and looks like an emperor.

I don't like Liu Bian, a little Taoist priest who is free and easy.

Jian Shuo and others naturally knew Liu Hong's preference and preference for these two sons.

They knew very well that if Liu Hong was really allowed to choose.

Liu Xie would definitely be more suitable to be the emperor.

So Jian Shuo, Zhang Rang and others gathered together immediately after Liu Hong's death to discuss the matter.

"Your Majesty wanted to establish the Prince's Association as the emperor. We all know about this, but now it seems that it is not an easy task to establish the Prince's Association."

Zhao Zhong sighed.

When he sighed, the listeners really felt that he seemed to be a loyal minister who truly cared about the country and the people.

Zhang Rang sneered and said, "Of course this is not an easy matter. It's about our lives and safety. How can we do it easily?"

"If the prince is really allowed to argue for his succession, who else can check and balance the court, so how can we advance?"

"At that time, if He Jin wants to take our lives, wouldn't he just be flipping his hands?"

Zhao Zhong sighed softly again, his chubby face was full of sorrow.

The most powerful of the ten servants is Jian Shuo.

He stood up now and looked around.

With a height of more than two meters, he looks like a giant iron tower.

Even the baggy robe worn by the eunuch could not conceal his steel-like muscles.

Just standing like this makes people feel like an ancient beast has awakened.

"What's so difficult about this?"

"As long as He Jin is beheaded, we will naturally be able to help the prince Xie succeed to the throne."

Zhang Rang sneered, and said: "Although He Jin's strength is nothing, the scholars gathered around him should not be underestimated. With the help of those people, it may be difficult to kill He Jin." what."

Jian Shuo snorted coldly, but didn't say anything.

On the contrary, Zhao Zhong rubbed his chubby hands and said, "Actually, it's not difficult to kill He Jin."

His words immediately attracted the attention of Zhang Rang, Jian Shuo and others.

Then I heard Zhao Zhong say: "Now we just need to keep the funeral secret, and then issue an edict to He Jin to come to see him. As long as he comes alone, we will naturally have a chance to kill him."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone nodded.

Then Zhang Rang and others issued an edict ordering He Jin to go to the palace.

He Jin has no doubt about him.

However, walking all the way into the palace, the more he moved forward, the more weird He Jin felt.

Right now.

Sima Panyin happened to meet He Jin.

He exchanged winks with He Jin, and the two passed each other, He Jin suddenly felt cold sweat on his back.

The warrior's keen sense of life and death made him immediately understand what was going on.

So he immediately left the palace, returned to his private house, and called all the ministers to discuss the matter.

"Zhang Rang and others actually want to kill me in the palace?! How bold!"

"Since you wait ruthlessly, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

He Jin tightly grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist, and the knuckles of the fingers turned white.

Angry and frightened in his heart, he wished he could kill all the eunuchs in the palace.

In order to eliminate the eunuchs, while everyone was hesitating and discussing, Pan Yin came.

He said: "Your Majesty has passed away. Now that Jian Shuo is discussing with the ten permanent servants, he will not make a funeral in secret, and pretends to declare He Guojiu to enter the palace. Only when the Guojiu is removed, he will establish the prince association as emperor."

He Jin said angrily: "How dare the dog thief do this!"

"Who dares to go with me to seek thieves!"

One person stepped forward and said: "I would like to use five thousand elite soldiers to cut into the pass, wipe out the imperial court, and secure the world!"

He Jin regarded it as Yuan Shao, the captain of Sili.

"Okay! I will allocate five thousand imperial forest troops to you and enter the court with me!"

Afterwards, Yuan Shao, He Jin and others put on their whole bodies, and led more than thirty ministers, including five thousand elite, into the palace.

Zhang Rang and others were unable to stop him in time, so He Jin and others came to Liu Hong's coffin and helped the crown prince to defend himself as emperor.

Although Jian Shuo himself is powerful.

But at this time the palace was surrounded by five thousand elites led by He Jin.

Jian Shuo didn't have many soldiers in his hands.

The two held each other, and the clouds rose up.

He Jin looked coldly at Jian Shuo whose strength had reached the eight-veined realm, and waved his arm.

All the subordinates flocked away.

Naturally, Jian Shuo couldn't sit still and wait for death.

Just no matter how strong he is.

There is no cloud blessing around him, and he is caught in the formation of those imperial forest troops.

The imperial forest army only paid the price of about a hundred people, and nailed Jian Shuo to death with a long spear.

Seeing that Jian Shuo was dead, Yuan Shao was very excited.

He, Cao Cao and the others looked at each other, and there was a strange look in their eyes.

Then Yuan Shao immediately turned to He Jin and said, "General, now that Jian Shuo has been put to death, but the middle-ranking officials have formed cliques for private reasons, today we can take advantage of the situation and cut them all off!"

After He Jinzhu killed Jian Shuo, Zhang Rang and others knew that the situation was over.

Now that Liu Bian has ascended the throne, He Jin has the same power in the court for a while.

No one can fight against it anymore.

But it doesn't mean that no one will really be able to control He Jin from now on.

At least, there is still one person in this palace!
Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhang Rang and others immediately rushed to the Empress Dowager He and cried bitterly, pleading: "At the beginning, all the things that wanted to assassinate the general were done by Jian Shuo alone, and it's none of our business. Now the general I listened to Yuan Shao's slander and wanted to kill us all, but I hope the Empress Dowager will show mercy!"

Empress Dowager He frowned slightly, her thoughts turned, and then she waved her hand and said, "Don't disturb me, I will keep you safe."

Then Empress Dowager He announced He Jin to see her.

After meeting He Jin, the Empress Dowager He said to He Jin: "We were born in a poor family and have nothing to rely on in this palace. Before that, Jian Shuo wanted to murder you. This is his own business. It has nothing to do with Zhang Rang and others." Man, why do you listen to Yuan Shao's words and drive them all to death?"

He Jin said coldly, "It's none of Zhang Rang's business?"

"How dare he have such a plan for me based on that mere Jianshuo?"

Empress Dowager He sighed softly and said, "Do you think I don't know about this?"

"Even if Zhang Rang and the others really have such a plan, you can't touch them now."

He Jin was still quite high-spirited at this time, after beheading Jian Shuo, he felt as if he had the ability to do anything.

So he didn't think much about many things, he just felt comfortable, so he did it.

He asked, "Why is that?"

Empress Dowager He said: "Now Bian'er has just ascended the throne, he is still young, you and I have a shallow foundation in this court, if it is true what those gentry said, after killing all these eunuchs, at that time, Who is going to contend with it?"

"Just you and me? At that time, how could they continue to respect you?"

"Without the check and balance of the eunuchs, these gentry will only become stronger and more greedy, and our final result must be to die in their hands, unless Bian'er is old enough to support the majesty of the emperor. "

When He Jin heard the words, he suddenly realized.

So after paying homage to Empress Dowager He, she said goodbye and left.

Outside, Yuan Shao and others were anxiously waiting for He Jin's order, and then they could use their soldiers to kill all the eunuchs.

However, after He Jin came out.

What they waited for was not an order to kill the eunuch.

It was an order for them to withdraw their troops and retreat.

Yuan Shao and others immediately remonstrated: "Now is the right time to kill those eunuchs, is it true that the general is so open-minded? He can even bear the revenge of those eunuchs against you? "

He Jin's eyes became colder, and he said: "The one who planned to kill me before was Jian Shuo alone. Now that Jian Shuo has been killed, naturally there is no need to get too involved."

Cao Cao said again: "General, think twice!"

He Jin snorted coldly: "You junior know the important affairs of the court!"

Yuan Shaodao: "If you don't kill these eunuchs today, they will definitely hold grudges. If you don't kill them, you will be harmed by them in the future!"

He Jin waved his hand and said, "I've made up my mind, there's no need to say anything!"

Seeing He Jin's firm attitude, everyone couldn't persuade him any longer, so they had to withdraw their troops and return.

At night, Yuan Shao and others gathered together again.

He held the wine glass in his hand, and after everyone drank a cup, he said with some regret: "I never thought that He Jin didn't choose to kill all those eunuchs today, but it's not beautiful."

Hearing this, Xu You said with a smile: "It is not a one-day effort to kill the eunuchs. It is not easy to kill that Jian Shuo today. After this time, those eunuchs no longer have military power in their hands. If you want to deal with them in the future, can it be Isn't it a simple matter?"

Yuan Shao laughed and said: "That's exactly the case. When we cut off all the eunuchs, the great Han world, such a dark bureaucracy, will naturally be saved."

There was an indelible smile on everyone's face.

But how much of this smile is for the sake of the big man's world is something they all know well.

But the people here are not all the people they think about.

Cao Cao just gave an apologetic laugh, then shrank aside and just drank.

Is the world after cutting off the eunuch really the world he wants to live in?

Cao Cao had already seen it clearly at this time.

Such a thing is obviously impossible.

Cutting off the eunuchs can only make these powerful families stronger, and no one can check and balance them.

That was definitely not the world he wanted to see.

However, compared to those powerful families, the eunuchs in front of him now make Cao Cao feel even more disgusted.

In any case, these eunuchs must die.

If these eunuchs are not completely suppressed.

Inevitably, the future court will slowly turn into a scene of infighting between eunuchs and their gentry.

And Zhang Rang and others have worked hard in this court for decades.

Internal and external links, the relationship is intricate.

If we really want to fight, it's hard to say what the future will look like.

Only by getting rid of these eunuchs completely.

Only then did Cao Cao have the confidence to gain a possible upper hand in the future game with the aristocratic family.
