Established a thousand-year family from the end of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 310 Wang Situ (Twelve)

ten days later

General's House
"General, eunuchs are the worms of the country. For the sake of the country of the great Han, and for the sake of the people of the world, please kill the eunuchs!" Yuan Shao earnestly persuaded General He Jin.

Wang Yun, Wang Ding, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Bian Rang, Liu Biao, Hua Xin, Kong Rong, Pang Ji, Bao Xin, Zhang Yang, Chen Lin, Xun You, Xu You, Wang Kuang, Kuai Yue, Xun Shuang.

These people also expressed their agreement with Yuan Shao's point of view, and together with Yuan Shao persuaded He Jin to kill the eunuch.

In the Han Dynasty, eunuchs were the original sin. Those who opposed the eunuchs could get the support of the scholars, and those who appreciated the eunuchs would be cast aside by the scholars. Therefore, the emperor would reuse eunuchs for the purpose of maintaining imperial power.

Among these people, some wanted to kill the eunuch because their family members had been killed by the eunuch, so they wanted to kill the eunuch for revenge.

Some people are simply unhappy to see eunuchs making money, so they want to kill eunuchs.

Some people want to kill eunuchs because they have harmed their interests.

Some people simply want to gain a good reputation by killing eunuchs.

There is also the fact that it is not a big deal to watch the excitement, hoping to muddy the water, and then take the opportunity to fish in the muddy water.

Among them, Yuan Shao and his uncle Yuan Kai also had a little disagreement.

Yuan Kai, a tumbler in the officialdom, does not like taking risks no matter what he does, so his idea is to support his relatives on the surface, but actually wait and see what happens, help whoever wins, and always stand on the side of the winner, just like before, 100 The Yuan family has been doing this for many years. His approach is no different from that of Wang Guang of the Liaodong Wang family.

Yuan Ji also thought the same, so he didn't come to the General's Mansion.

But his nephew Yuan Shao doesn't think so. As a bastard, he urgently needs fame. In order to increase his reputation, Yuan Shao can spend his youth and keep filial piety for six years. This is his obsession with fame. It is famous all over the world, and it is He Jin, the great general of foreign relatives who actually did it, not Yuan Shao, let alone the Yuan family. Even if he accidentally fails, it has nothing to do with Yuan Shao and the Yuan family.

Out of this consideration, the head of the Yuan family, Yuan Kai, acquiesced in Yuan Shao's approach to He Jin.

Just like when Yuan Tang asked his son Yuan Cheng to seek refuge with his relative Liang Ji, and at the same time let his other son oppose his relative Liang Ji.

It's also like when the royal family of Liaodong secretly gave gifts to Liang Ji, while secretly cursing Liang Ji with other scholars as a treacherous minister who harmed the country and the people.

Cons and Pros, which one to choose?
No, no, no, we gentry want it all!

Not only against you, but also for you!

If there are benefits, everyone will share them together; if there are risks, you should bear them alone.

While Yuan Kui gave gifts to the eunuchs, he also acquiesced to his nephew Yuan Shao to persuade He Jin to kill the eunuchs.

If He Jin kills the eunuch, then our Yuan family deserves a share in the power center even if we have made merit in persuasion. If He Jin is killed against him, it is He Jin's own business and has nothing to do with our Yuan family. The emperor can't blame him. Come to our Yuan family.

How the gentry used Dou's relatives to kill eunuchs at the beginning, how they use He's relatives to continue to kill eunuchs today.

No whims, just old things repeating themselves.

Also doing the same is Wang Yun of the Wang family in Liaodong.

The Wang family was still secretly sending money to the eunuchs, and at the same time, they followed Yuan Shao to persuade General He, the foreign relative, to go in and kill the eunuchs.

He Jin, hurry up and kill him. After winning, my Wang family will share the credit. If you accidentally lose like Dou Wu did last time, then we will pretend not to know. This matter has nothing to do with my Wang family. My Wang family did not participate. Wait until the next opportunity to provoke the next relative to kill the eunuch.

Looking at the group of scholars who had been persuading him to kill the eunuch, He Jin did not feel his blood boil, but was very calm.

"Hehe, more than 20 years ago, you must have persuaded Dou Wu, the general of your relatives, to kill the eunuch in the same way. As a result, at the most critical moment, you all swept away the door and sold Dou Wu. I, He Jin, will not be like Dou Wu. Just like Wu, you should be the tools of your gentry."

He Jin sneered in his heart, then pretended to be helpless and sighed: "The Empress Dowager (Empress Dowager He) won't allow it, so there is nothing I can do!"

He didn't want to kill the eunuch at all, or didn't want to kill the eunuch now, but was bargaining with the gentry.

If you want me, He Jin, to be the first bird to kill eunuchs, that's fine, but you gentry have to come up with benefits that can impress me, instead of talking endlessly.

Of course eunuchs can be killed, but they can't be killed like this. At least they have to get enough benefits from the gentry and get the promise of the gentry.

Use the heads of the eunuchs to exchange what you need from the gentry.

"General, if you don't kill the eunuch, there will be endless troubles!"

"Deng's relatives, Yan's relatives, Liang's relatives, and Dou's relatives, these families were all purged by the eunuchs. Even if the relatives did not kill the eunuchs, the eunuchs would kill the relatives, so even if they are not for the sake of the world, they are just for the sake of the world. For your own sake, you should also kill eunuchs, does the general want to follow in the footsteps of these families?" Yuan Shao cited the precedent of the big man and continued to persuade.

"Okay, don't talk about it, you juniors, how do you know about the important affairs of the court?" He Jin was also a little angry.

Persuasion, persuasion, will be persuasive, and I am reluctant to give any benefits. I want He Jin to be the first bird, but I am not willing to give any real benefits. These aristocratic families, thinking of empty hands and white wolves every day, really suck How can I be taken advantage of?
He Jin wants many things.

Such as acres, population, wealth, fame, marriage, commitment.

But at the end of the day, he wants to be a member of an aristocratic family. He doesn't want to be a relative who can only be famous for a dozen years, but a family that has been famous for hundreds of years.

And most of these things are in the hands of aristocratic families.

"General, the lessons learned by Dou's relatives are right in front of you. Don't you know that the last general, Dou Wu, was killed by an eunuch?" Wang Yun was also persuading him, and last night, he had his servants secretly The land gave a lot of money and beautiful maidservants to the sons of Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Jian Shuo and others in Luoyang.

"Of course I know, but not all eunuchs are bad people, and I believe that Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Duan Gui and others should not have the guts to do what Cao Jie did." General He Jin said very confidently.

He thought he had the ability to control the eunuchs, and exchanged the heads of the eunuchs for the recognition and benefits of the gentry.

"Don't stop, but accept the chaos. If the general doesn't kill the eunuch today, he will regret it in the future." Yuan Shao still insisted on persuading He Jin to be taken advantage of, with great perseverance.

"I also ask the general to kill the eunuchs, clean up the court, and restore the world to the world!" Wang Yun also chimed in.

"I implore the general to kill the eunuchs, clear the court, and bring peace to the world!" The rest of the scholars in the mansion also persuaded, their eyes were very sincere, but they didn't know how many were real and how many were fake.

"I have my own way to deal with the important affairs of the court, so you don't need to persuade me any more!" He Jin made it clear that if he didn't see a rabbit, he wouldn't scatter the eagle, and he couldn't get any benefits from the gentry, so he resolutely refused to help the gentry eradicate the eunuchs.

You want the horse to run, but also want the horse not to eat grass, what a beautiful idea!
