Three Kingdoms: Cao Cao and Liu Bei help me to ascend the throne

Qingzhou, in the Eastern Han Dynasty, governed six prefectures.

They are: Pingyuan County, Donglai County, Jinan Country, Le'an Country, Beihai Country, Qi Country...

And Qingzhou was famous during the Three Kingdoms period... because of the famous Qingzhou soldiers selected by Cao Cao from the millions of Yellow Turbans.

certainly…

At this point in time, there are no Qingzhou soldiers, only the Yellow Turbans after the uprising... hibernate, like the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans who occupy the mountain like the Black Mountain Army.

Today, in the territory of Beihai State in Qingzhou, several yellow turban leaders gathered around the bonfire to keep warm while chatting about something.

The first one to speak was Xu He, he was the little leader here.

Accompanied by an "ah", his voice came out.

"Recently, the boundary of Qingzhou, Jinan Kingdom has changed..."

"We are only a few dozen miles away from Jinan, and their country is a chaotic country, even more chaotic than ours. What can change?"

Bian Xi, who answered, was also a small leader of the Yellow Turban Army here.

Xu He raised his eyes to look at a man sitting on the main seat with a rather bold posture. This man was wearing a yellow scarf and had a serious face. From the layers of calluses in his hands, it can be seen that his martial arts must be extraordinary. The spear was placed behind him, as if ready to kill the enemy at any time.

This man is none other than Guan Hai, the leader of the Yellow Turban here.

Hearing his subordinates talking about Jinan Kingdom, Guan Hai raised his eyes and said casually, "You're talking about that Jinan Prime Minister—Cao Cao?"

"It's him!"

The boss spoke...Xu He hurriedly said: "I heard that this kid was a captain of the North when he was in Luoyang City, cast five-color sticks to beat the powerful, and served as the county magistrate in Dunqiu, promulgating ten crimes and punishing the powerful. ...This kid went to Jinan to be the Prime Minister, and he actually disregarded the interests of the powerful, destroying evil temples, and helping the victims... I heard that he even killed the local tycoons and dignitaries! It made them suffer..."

Xu He said a lot in one breath...

Cao Cao has indeed done so many things.

Of course, Guan Hai has also heard about Cao Cao's deeds.

At first... just listening casually, in his opinion, how could there be such a person?

But I can't help it, there are always stories about Cao Cao's deeds, the most important thing is to destroy the evil temples, you know... Among them, many farmers from Jinan, they have suffered from these evil temples for many years...

There has been a lot of discussion...

"Boss... Is there really such a good official in the court?" Bian Xi still couldn't believe it.

"Heh..." Guan Hai sneered at first, then gave a cold "hum", and then said with emotion: "If there are more good officials like Cao Cao in the world, how can the Taiping Road of the great virtuous teacher attract so many farmers? You don’t have to go around looting your house... you can live a life like a street mouse!"

The words blurted out...Xu He also let out an "ah" and sighed...

Only the second-in-command here, He Man, let out a cold snort, and he stood up abruptly, with a cold light in his eyes: "The sky is dead, and Huang Tian should stand, this big man is already sick to the marrow, and there is no cure!"

As soon as this statement comes out…

Xu He immediately retorted, "Don't say that, recently... the legend of the Yulin Temple Master in Luoyang City is amazing, and he really saved the people in Youzhou and relieved the plague in Nanyang. The participation of the common people is more than in previous years, what is the world saying... I know the world of heroes all over the world, and there is Liu Lang in Yulin who bows his head, maybe... he is the medicine of the big man!"

"Fart!" He Man retorted coldly, "How did I hear that it was he who cheated secretly, which caused the great virtuous and good teacher to collapse thousands of miles away, and his head was in a different place. In my opinion... this Yulin Liulang is the largest of our Yellow Turban Army. enemies of the

"I can't say that..." Bian Xi couldn't listen anymore, "Don't you hear that this Yulin Liulang went to Heishanzhai alone and persuaded the Heishan army to surrender to the imperial court? After making great achievements, he is no longer a rebel, but a hero. I heard... Chu Feiyan, after changing his name, is now able to flaunt himself in Luoyang City, and his brothers even got a lot of Longtian in Liaodong! In my opinion, there was no cure for the big man before, but after Yulin Liulang came out, it was different, very different! I heard that this Yulin Liulang was still in contact with the great hero Liu Xuande of Youzhou, the one who destroyed evil spirits. Cao Cao, Prime Minister of Jinan, married Jinlan"

Bian Xi's words still made He Man look disdainful. He was nicknamed "Jetian Yasha". His parents died at the hands of the officers and soldiers, and their heads were cut off by the officers and soldiers to pretend to be meritorious... He Man hated the big man to the bone. .

"Bah, I don't believe that the big man has medicine! I will witness the demise of the big man sooner or later!"

I just said this...

"Report..."

A small soldier broke into the room, "Report to the masters, then... then Cao Cao, the Prime Minister of Jinan, came to our cottage and said he wanted to see the masters!"

Well…

Prime Minister of Jinan?Cao Cao?
As soon as these words came out, Guan Hai, Bian Xi, He Man, Xu He were all startled.

Guan Hai reacted the fastest and immediately asked, "How many people are here!"

"Besides him, there is another guard!"

He Man narrowed his eyes, "Isn't this the same as when Liu Yu went to persuade the Black Mountain Army to surrender? Hmph... I know that this Cao Cao has no good intentions!"

Bian Xi and Xu He looked at each other.

Xu Hedao: "Master, this Cao Cao punished the local tyrants and dignitaries. When our Yellow Turban Army first revolted, didn't we also want to attack the tyrants and landlords? But...you can see..."

"Cough cough..." Guan Hai coughed lightly, and suddenly, the whole big tent became quiet.

After a long silence, Guan Hai raised his hand, as if thinking of something.

——"See you, see you!"

...

...

The sky over Luoyang City was cloudy.

The season of heavy rain is coming...

Liu Yu, who came to Luoyang, did not go back to Yulin Temple, but went to a farmhouse in the eastern outskirts of Luoyang. Although it may not be a farmhouse, but here, there are eighteen rooms and three courtyards with small tiles, green tiles and eaves. The windows and brick walls are carved with patterns on the gate tower, and the corridors, pavilions, windows and rooms are connected.

Bedrooms, reading rooms, reception rooms, libraries are all available...

Everywhere shows that there is a noble person living here.

There are water wells, terraces, stone mills, and mortars in the east courtyard. Strings of dried fish and bamboo living utensils are hung on the kitchen windows... An osmanthus tree in the middle courtyard is fragrant every year in August, and a few pomegranates are planted in the west garden. The tree, every year in September, smiles.

This is the residence of Cao Jie, the former Shangshuling.

Liu Yu came to visit him today.

Cao Jie didn't expect that Liu Yu, who was "well-known and well-known" and had just defeated Wuhuan in a battle...had made great achievements and was called a new nobleman of the imperial court...he would take the initiative to visit him, a "down and down" person.

This is the biggest "visited guest" after Taiwei Qiaoxuan came...

Dressed in Tsing Yi, Liu Yu stepped into the main courtyard, his appearance looked ordinary...

But... this is not the first time Cao Jie has seen Liu Yu. Once... after the case of Empress Song was settled, he was fortunate enough to have a glimpse of the demeanor of this "Yulin Liulang". It's completely different, this time Liu Yu gives people the feeling that everything is quiet, and the rain is silent and powerful.

"Which gust of wind brought Yulin Liulang here."

Cao Jie spoke at the right time...

Liu Yu saw a pair of chess and cards placed in the middle of the courtyard, "Can I have the honor to play a game with Senior?"

The meaning of Liu Yu's words... is to sit down and speak slowly.

"Please!"

Cao Jie waved his big hand, two handfuls of chess pieces, a table... Cao Jie and Liu Yu sat on both sides.

"Hei Zi respects you!"

"Your Excellency is a senior, Your Excellency please first."

Liu Yu raised her hand...

"Pata!" Although Cao Jie was an eunuch, his master was Cao Cao's grandfather Cao Teng, and one of Cao Teng's big ideas was to let the little Huangmen in the palace study, learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting from an early age... learn a hundred It can be said that...except riding and archery, horse bow...Xiao Huangmen can learn everything.

This is also why, the carpenter Zhao Zhong was able to become one of the ten permanent attendants, and was ranked second. Now the eunuchs in the palace... who doesn't have a skill?
"pat..."

Cao Jie picked up his son and said, "The three-foot situation is a battle field. Chen gathers soldiers, and the two enemies are evenly matched. I became an official earlier, but my old ideas may not adapt to the current situation. Please, Mr. Liu!"

"Snapped!"

In the middle of Liu Yu's table case: "To prosper the Daoist sect, you are not allowed to be an official, and you dare to take Tianyuan as the position of Dazheng!"

"What courage! I don't know, why is Mr. Liu here today?"

Cao Jie raised his son again and fell down.

Liu Yu didn't think about it, and Tizi laid out the layout: "I want to discuss with seniors, what is the relationship between eunuchs and emperors?"

Hmm...not waiting for Cao Jie to react.

Liu Yu asked two questions again. "Where is the pinnacle of the eunuch's power? Where is the bottom line of the eunuch?"

This…

Don't look at it as three questions, but these are like three poisonous thorns that hit the depths of Cao Jie's heart. If he had realized this early in the morning, why did he have to let Zhang Rang deprive him of his authority.

"That's why you came here?"

"Who says eunuchs have no pride?"

"Haha..." Cao Jie laughed. He raised his hand, but he didn't give up. "People who talk about the authorities are deluded, but bystanders are clear. You are asking the right person. No one in power in the eunuch family will be able to answer your question."

Liu Yu didn't answer Cao Jie's words, but stretched out his hand to signal... to continue listening to his high-spirited talk.

Cao Jie continued: "To Your Majesty, the eunuch is a dog, the most obedient dog. Because the eunuch has no eggs, even if the adopted son is born again, he will have no family... Everything that belongs to the eunuch is Your Majesty, and all the rights in the eunuch's hands are also at stake. It was bestowed by His Majesty, as for the peak and bottom line, hehe...Liu Yu, you ask me...Why don't you ask Your Majesty?"

"If I know where the peak and bottom line is given by our Majesty? Will our family... still end up in this desolate scene?"

Ah…

Hearing Cao Jie's words, Liu Yu smiled.

On this issue, he has a completely different view, "Senior learned from Fei Tinghou Cao Teng, but he didn't learn what to do in the end? Why didn't senior think about it? Why did the conflict between eunuchs and clans not exist when Cao Teng was in power?" It’s so heavy, why once he passed away, the disaster of party imprisonment would happen twice in a row, eunuchs and scholar-bureaucrats would never stop dying!”

this…

Cao Jie really hadn't thought about this.

It seems... In his impression, Cao Teng is not an extremely clean person, he is also greedy for ink, and also uses his power...

But in other words... As Liu Yu mentioned, maybe...he can keep his bottom line!
This is why he will never be able to reach the height of Fei Tinghou Cao Teng!
Let the scholar-bureaucrats and eunuchs be loved equally!
"Hehe..." Cao Jie laughed, "Liu Dahongyu...is here to teach me today? It's a pity...our family is no longer a Zhongchang servant, so there is no way to serve His Majesty anymore."

"if…"

At this moment, Liu Yu changed the subject, "What if I can overthrow Zhang Rang? The imperial court needs an eunuch to come out again to preside over the overall situation of the eunuchs in the palace. Is senior willing to come out again?"

pat...

Liu Yu's words made the chess piece held by Cao Jie fall... With the sound of "cracking", the sunspots and the floor made a crisp and pleasant sound.

"What did you say?"

Cao Jie asked incredulously.

Liu Yu explained with a smile: "It is impossible to completely eradicate greedy ink and perverting the law in all dynasties, and the big man is the same. All I can think of is to find an eunuch like Cao Teng, Marquis of Fei Ting in the past, and he will bear the burden." All of this, let him gather all the corrupt officials and corrupt ink to him, and let him do some unsightly things for His Majesty! Are you willing to do it, senior?"

Liu Yu asked more seriously this time...

Zhang Rang's eyeballs were round and huge.

No wonder... Liu Yu asked him today about the relationship between eunuchs and the emperor, where is the peak of eunuch's power, and where is the bottom line?It turns out...he has completely understood all of this.

True…

Liu Yu has a certain understanding of eunuchs, and he also knows that in this big man's world, eunuchs play an extremely important role.

The eunuch's greedy ink will also chatter...

This is proved by history, all dynasties, and even the world before Liu Yu traveled must be justice?Does it have to be bright everywhere?Surely he didn't do evil or oppress the good?Are there no corrupt officials?

Do not…

No dynasty can avoid these.

The so-called tiger has been on the road!

Then...

Just use magic to defeat magic, find the one who is the most corrupt, give him absolute power, and let him deter all Xiao Xiao... Just like He Shen in the Qing Dynasty, at least... such a person can gather a lot of corrupt people, and This part of the income... the emperor can take it back into his own hands at any time.

As if, while Liu Yu was thinking for a long time...Cao Jie also closed his eyes and meditated for a long time. In the end, he knew...the bottom line is not easy to keep, but...seriously, such a right...the opportunity of "lost and regained" came back before his eyes. Can you not be moved!

"Liu Yu, Liu Yu... the best thing about you is that you understand people's hearts!"

Cao Jie simply stopped playing chess... His words became more and more meticulous, "Are you really going to move to Zhang Rang and Shi Changshi? Is it because of Cao Cao?"

"No!" Liu Yu shook his head, "It's now time to eradicate the evils of the big man, and it's time to move it! The source of many crimes is there. While the ten servants held power, they failed to hold the bottom line!"

"Ha ha ha ha…"

Cao Jie laughed heartily, "Okay, since that's the case, then our family promises you that if you can really bring down the ten permanent servants, our family will become the head eunuch who can hold the bottom line, and our family will also help you rejuvenate." Daomen!"

Speaking of this... Cao's program was bright, and he seemed to have thought of something again, "By the way, our family forgot to tell you. Our family has received news that Zhang Rang and Shi Changshi plan to arrange it for you in three days. At the celebration banquet, he sued Cao Song viciously! And... this time it’s not just the eunuchs who stand on Zhang Rang’s side!”

Speaking of this... Cao Ju's light is cold. "Liu Yu, Liu Yu, you can think about it. If you help the Cao family this time, you will not only offend the eunuchs, but also... many clans! Can your Taoist sect really be fearless?"
