Chapter 410 Recruiting Foreign Soldiers to Luoyang
He Jin yelled in front of Yuan Kai, as if he wanted to pour out all the resentment accumulated in his heart.

Yuan Kai didn't say anything, and silently played the role of the emotional trash can, letting He Jin vent and make He Jin yell.

When He Jin finished venting and collapsed on the ground like a deflated ball, Yuan Kai opened his mouth slowly.

"Suigao, we all know your grievances, but if the emperor doesn't think so, it will be meaningless for us to know more. The matter of establishing the crown prince requires the emperor's permission. If the emperor is determined not to let the prince argue What can I do as a courtier?"

He Jin was silent for a moment, then looked at Yuan Kai.

"Yuan Gong, you must have a way, right?"

"I……"

"Duke Yuan! Things have come to this point, what else can we not say between you and me?"

He Jin leaned forward and took Yuan Kai's hand, and said sincerely, "I'm so confused, I don't know how to deal with the current situation, please teach me!"

Seeing He Jin's sincere expression, Yuan Kai felt secretly refreshed, but on the surface he showed helplessness.

"As a minister, this really shouldn't be something I should do..."

"Yuan Gong!"

He Jin held Yuan Kai's hand even harder, the sincerity and pleading in his eyes were about to condense into substance.

Yuan Kai felt even happier.

Since He Jin asked the question sincerely, he could only show mercy and tell He Jin the coping strategy.

"Suigao, do you know Shangshan Sihao?"

He Jin frowned.

"I know, the famous hermit, Gaozu preferred Qi Ji's son Ruyi back then, and wanted to make him the crown prince, but Shangshan Sihao came out to support Emperor Hui, so..."

Having said this, He Jin suddenly realized.

"Yuan Gong, what do you mean, let me find a way to find a famous hermit in the world to assist the prince to argue, so that the emperor can stop the idea of ​​abolishing the elders and establishing the younger?"

Yuan Kai almost didn't laugh.

Sure enough, he was born as a butcher, and he didn't have a thorough understanding of these things. How could the founding emperor, who was about to conquer the world and establish a foundation, change his mind on such an important matter just because of a few old men?
"In general, there is no problem, but Suigao, Shangshan Sihao is just a cover, what really made Gaozu change his mind is the faction behind Emperor Hui who supported him. Shangshan Sihao came out of the mountain. The result of the operation of the people, and this series of people involved in the operation are naturally the supporters of Emperor Hui.

When Gaozu saw Shangshan Sihao, he not only knew how much effort Lu had put in to invite Shangshan Sihao, but also how many people participated in it, helping Lu invite Shangshan Sihao, So Gaozu realized that Emperor Hui's wings had been formed and could not be shaken. "

He Jin was ignorant, vaguely understanding, and after thinking for a long time, he hesitated and said, "That is to say, if I want to change the emperor's mind, I need to find enough people to support me?"

"Yes, the emperor must know how many people support the prince's succession to the throne, and how strong they are, so that the emperor will give up the idea of ​​abolishing the elders and establishing the younger."

Yuan Kai said in a low voice: "And this time, the Son of Heaven is mobilizing troops, so the solution to this matter is not a hermit like Shangshan Sihao, but soldiers from all directions!"

"Soldiers from all directions?"

He Jin was startled, and hurriedly said: "Duke Yuan, do you want me to threaten the emperor with troops? No way! I am a minister and he is the emperor. How can a minister threaten the emperor with troops? Isn't that rebellion?"

Yuan Kai shook his head again and again.

"As a minister, of course we cannot use troops to threaten the Son of Heaven. We mobilized troops only to let the Son of Heaven see that everyone in the world supports the prince's argument for inheriting the throne, not the prince's association, so you need to call the Quartet Army in the name of the general. The soldiers came to Luoyang, not for other reasons, but to prove that the prince has enough people to support him."

"Then you can't just recruit foreign soldiers to Luoyang."

He Jinwei wondered: "What's more, this kind of thing can't be done without the permission of the emperor. Otherwise, it is no different from rebellion, and I will become a thief. How should I handle such a thing? What is the reason? Will the emperor approve it? "

"There is always a way that the emperor has to approve."

Yuan Kui smiled in his heart, and said slowly: "Suigao, there are some well-known qi-watching warlocks in your house, if they find some signs that they must recruit soldiers from all directions to Luoyang after wang-qi, then spread the word Then, what will happen to the situation?"

He Jin was taken aback.

"Aura Warlock..."

"The prophecy is mysterious and mysterious, but who dare not believe it?"

Yuan Kai smiled and said: "Suigao, at an extraordinary time, use an extraordinary method. If you have served as a general for five years, if you don't even have the courage, how can you assist the prince to argue and govern the world?"

He Jin lowered his head, quickly thinking about the various impacts of doing so, and constantly imagining various consequences.

In this way, Liu Bian's "popularity" can indeed be proved to Liu Hong, but he is really on the opposite side of Liu Hong.

If the eunuch slanders a little bit, will Liu Hong put all his eggs in one basket and attack him with soldiers?
"Bringing soldiers from all over the world, even if the name is justified, there are signs of threatening the emperor. If the eunuchs slander, the emperor will be deceived, and attack me with soldiers from the West Garden. As a subject, how can I resist? The emperor is the emperor after all..."

He Jin had a lot of worries, and despite Yuan Kai's repeated persuasion, he still couldn't make up his mind.

He wanted to talk to Liu Hong again through his sister, Empress He, to see if there was any possibility of communication. Before the last moment, he didn't want to do anything wrong, and he didn't want his actions to be criticized by the world.

This point, he is very clear.

Yuan Kui's persuasion was useless, and he was secretly anxious.

"If you can't make up your mind now, when the Son of Heaven sees it, he may go one step further and threaten you step by step. By then, your situation will be even more critical. Suigao, time will never wait!"

"There are differences between monarchs and ministers. I can't do things that give people an excuse unless it is absolutely necessary."

He Jin shook his head, still wanting to solve the matter through conventional means.

But unfortunately, Yuan Wei was right, and his idea fell through.

Liu Hong hated Empress He, had a big fight with Empress He, drove her out of the palace, and never saw her again.

Then, he discussed with Jian Shuo about He Jin. Jian Shuo was afraid of He Jin's military power in Luoyang, and suggested to Liu Hong to divide his military power and introduce foreign aid.

"He Jin has served as the general for more than five years. He has many minions and full wings. If he wants to fight against him, he should cut his wings and increase His Majesty's cronies."

So Jian Shuo suggested bringing in outside aid, appointing Liu Hong's natal family, Wei Wei Dong Zhong as the chariot general, and handing over part of He Jin's army to Dong Zhong to command, blatantly reducing He Jin's military power and increasing Liu Hong's military power. side strength ratio.
