I, Liu Bian, Sanxing Han Dynasty

Chapter 156 He Jin’s Movement

Lu Zhi sighed and left, but when he left Yuntai Hall, his expression had returned to normal.

During the meal, Ma Rixi asked him why he stayed, but he prevaricated him, so Ma Rixi didn't ask any more questions.

Faced with the outcome of being dismissed due to disaster, Ding Gong could only accept it even though he was unwilling to do so.

He sent someone to contact Zhang Rang again, hoping to get the help of the ten permanent servants and say something good about him to the emperor. He would not let the emperor forget about him and strive for a seamless connection.

But at this special moment, Zhang Rang didn't dare to guarantee. His family accepted Ding Gong's gift, but Zhang Rang couldn't do anything about it.

The next day, the imperial edict appointing Sangong was officially issued.

Yuan Wei burned incense and bathed to receive the imperial edict.

After He Jin lost power, Yuan lost a major support.

Years of hard work were ruined in one fell swoop, resulting in a very gloomy atmosphere in the Yuan family during that period.

Only Yuan Shu felt sorry from the bottom of his heart, but when he saw the expressions of Yuan Wei and Yuan Shao, he felt a little bit happy in his heart while feeling sad.

There was such a happy event in Yuan Wei's family, and his nephews gathered together. Faced with his congratulations, he asked them to keep a low profile and not act in a public manner in the future.

Yuan Yin asked in confusion: "My father's third term as Situ is probably a good thing! Besides, my father's reputation outside is growing, why don't you take advantage of the situation?"

Previously, Yuan Yin helped Yuan Shu lead people to inspect the rural administration under Yin Zhi in Henan Province. He kept Yuan Shu's instructions in mind and showed no mercy.

Although due to his limited ability, he could not eliminate all the evil, he still achieved some results and made Yuan Wei change his attitude towards him.

Yuan Wei saw that Yuan Ji and the other two people had no objections, but he still patiently explained: "The young master has collected Shi Changshi's family property. Unless Shi Changshi makes another big mistake, I will definitely not punish Shi Changshi anymore." , impeachment is useless. If this annoys me, it will be counterproductive, so it is better to get out in time."

"But my father's reputation among scholars is..."

Seeing that Yuan Yin still didn't understand, Yuan Wei had no choice but to continue: "Situ is busy with official duties, so he should take state affairs as his top priority. And I am not collaborating with the eunuchs. I just no longer take the lead. How much influence can I have?"

At this point, in addition to explaining to Yuan Yin, Yuan Wei also wanted Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu to listen to his advice.

As the two of them gradually matured, they gradually wanted to break away from Yuan Wei's control. How could Yuan Wei not notice it.

But he didn't have any good ideas. As long as the general direction was consistent, he would just let it go.

When Yuan Shao was a white man, he invited guests and made friends with heroes in the capital. Yuan Wei repeatedly advised him, but Yuan Shao did not listen.

Now Yuan Shao tried to contact He Jin again, but did not listen to his persuasion.

The initial incident seemed to have no negative impact, but will there be any hidden worries in the future?

During the reign of Emperor Huan, it was a sin in itself for officials to associate with heroes and knights. Yuan Wei has experienced more and has more worries.

Soon after, Yuan Wei and Yuan Shao faced each other alone.

Yuan Shao was stubborn: "The Queen Mother is helping you in the palace. The former general and Your Majesty have the relationship of uncle and nephew. Although the general Miao is on good terms with the eunuchs, from what I have seen, he is not someone who adds insult to injury. I predict that the former general will rise again." .”

Yuan Wei knew that Yuan Shao spent a lot of time and energy to maintain the relationship with He Jin, and he still had a grudge against He Jin for refusing to see him after he closed his palace.

"Don't you understand at Ben Chu that even if he is resurrected, he will no longer be a general!"

"But the old official is still there!" Yuan Shao was hopeful, "Uncle, I have already thought of a way. He Xian is an official in the East Palace. He should have heard about what I have done in recent days and in the past. In two days I will Then I looked for an opportunity to meet him.”

After all, Yuan Wei was just an uncle. As a captain of the Northern Army, Yuan Shao insisted on going his own way, so there was nothing he could do. We can only advise Yuan Shao to be careful and not to be caught out and cause trouble.

……

The door of former general He Jin's mansion has been closed for several months, and even the side door next to the main entrance has been closed. Even if He Xian became the prince and washed his horses, he would only go in and out through the back door like the slaves responsible for daily purchases.

On this day, He Xian came back in a hurry and immediately found He Jin.

"Father, Dad..."

He Jin was pretending to read, and what he was reading was the printed version of "The Analects" that Liu Bian had given him. The second volume, which was not printed at first, was also sent to him.

Seeing that He Xian's movements were not steady at all, He Jin put down the book, snorted and said, "You are so impatient, is this how you serve as an official in the East Palace?"

He didn't even think about who He Xian looked like.

When He Xian heard the scolding, he didn't stop and explained: "Father, it's really urgent! Then Yuan Benchu ​​came to see me!"

"Didn't I tell you not to contact these people?" He Jin continued to rebuke, and the expression on his face told He Xian that if he didn't have a good reason, a beating would be absolutely necessary.

He Xian hurriedly said: "Yuan Benchu ​​said that now that the new king has succeeded to the throne, my father can write to your majesty, aunt, and uncle. There will be hope for a revival!"

He Jin was stunned.

During this period of time, He Jin shut himself up and thought about his mistakes. With his powerful position, he naturally had no shortage of concubines and fine wines. However, it was a national funeral and he did not dare to go too far. He was worried that if the news reached Liu Bian's ears, he would attract Liu Bian's attention. Feeling.

After being in the mansion for a long time, he felt a little boring.

He Jin still remembers Liu Bian's warning, but now Emperor Xian is no longer around...

After hearing what He Xian relayed, his mind came alive again.

He Jin subconsciously turned his head left and right and looked around.

Several of the servants serving nearby must have heard what was just said.

My own servant, just give me some instructions, it's not a big problem.

He Jin was no longer prepared to teach He Xian a lesson, and asked, "Did anyone else notice when Benchu ​​saw you?"

He Xian shook his head: "At that time, he led me to a remote alley. Only the driver who drove me knew about it."

He Jin immediately sat down to write a letter. When he picked up the pen, he suddenly thought of the bone-chilling cold wind that night, and suddenly stopped writing in his hand.

He asked He Xian again: "Are you really sure that no one else knows that Yuan Shao has met you? If anyone else knows that I have contacted Yuan Shao again and slanders... His Majesty, we will really have to go back to our hometown in Nanyang."

He Xian did not consider the consequences at first, because Cao Song, who was in charge of affairs in the East Palace, took good care of him, and other officials were also very respectful and polite to him.

He Xian was quite confident. This was the starting point for his bright future, but when He Jin questioned it, he immediately hesitated.

Why is it suddenly time to go back to your hometown?

He didn't notice any outsiders, but how could he guarantee that there weren't any?

During this period of time, He Jin didn't make any progress at all. At least his understanding of He Xian increased a lot. One look at He Xian's expression showed that he was not that reliable.
