Three Kingdoms: I will act as a substitute for the Hunjun

Chapter 15 Conspiracy and conspiracy
  The morning's itinerary was successfully completed. In the afternoon, Liu Ming and Jian Shuo were in Changle Palace, ousting everyone, and plotting the morning court tomorrow.

Jian Shuo described in detail the various rules of the early dynasty, and several important memorials tomorrow. Jian Shuo had already picked out the memorials in advance and discussed countermeasures with Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty. Liu Ming only needed to follow their arrangements. Just keep playing the script.

At this time, Liu Ming finally knew who Jian Shuo wanted to use to establish his power, and that was He Jin's fellow countryman and Zhongchang Shi Guo Sheng.

Although Guo Sheng is also among the ten permanent attendants, he is very close to He Jin. It can be said that He Jin and even Queen He can't achieve their current status without Guo Sheng's help. They are currently a community of interests.

If Jian Shuo wanted to compete with He Jin for supremacy, getting rid of Guo Sheng would be a must.

The conflict between Jian Shuo and other Zhongchang servants may have already existed. Liu Ming just took the opportunity to push them to speed up the fermentation.

"We will deal with this tomorrow and don't make any arbitrary decisions." Jian Shuo warned, "If there is an unplanned emergency, just look at my face and act."

"What if Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others have different opinions?" Liu Ming asked, "Ignore them and just listen to my general. All my words and deeds represent His Majesty."

Liu Ming pondered.

Jian Shuo looked at Liu Ming warily and warned: "These results are all His Majesty's will. Don't mess around. Be honest."

"The result will naturally be handled in accordance with His Majesty's decision." Liu Ming said in a conspiratorial manner, "But this process has a fly in the ointment. General Jian was too passive. It did not show the general's authority in the court, nor did it show that the general was His Majesty's favorite. It deserves its place.”

"Huh?" Jian Shuo looked at Liu Ming with his triangular eyes, with a look of doubt on his face, "What should I say?"

"General, please think about it. Although the general has made arrangements in the court and made countermeasures to various memorials, the whole process was initiated by the courtiers. In the end, I made the decision, and you, general, are just a bystander. .”

Liu Ming said seductively: "The general is acting on behalf of His Majesty now. No more than usual, he must maintain a sufficient sense of presence in the court. I heard that these two clowns, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, often jump up and down in the court. You Your Majesty, the pillar of the country who is running the government, has not said a word. Isn't it extremely inconsistent with your status?"

"Well, that makes sense." Jian Shuo nodded and said, "I, the general, act on behalf of Your Majesty. Although I can't say what I say, I still have the right to make decisions on the fly. How can I just be a showpiece? Continue to talk, how can we maintain enough power? Presence.”

"Is it possible to do it this way: at the end of every meeting, I ask the general for his opinion. The general will tell you the plan agreed with His Majesty, and then I will give the report accurately and order it to be handled according to the general's decision."

Liu Ming continued, "In this way, everyone in the civil and military circles of the dynasty will know that the most favored person by the emperor is General You. You are the majestic being who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. Who will dare to disrespect you and respect you in the future? Soon the general's house will be filled with guests. I think the three princes, nine ministers and even the general will come to visit and ask you to do something. By then, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and the like are nothing. The general can do it with just one finger. Stab them to death!"

"Hmm - hahahaha, I didn't see it, you are so smart." Jian Shuo's eyes were shining brightly, as if he had seen the scene where he was in power, and he stamped his feet, making the whole world tremble. "That's it! This general deserves this position."

Liu Ming looked at this sturdy eunuch who lacked political emotional intelligence and also laughed.

By doing this, he could certainly improve Jian Shuo's authority in the short term, but it would also put the other party on the fire, further isolate Jian Shuo, and intensify his antagonism with his courtiers.

Moreover, after gaining the trust of Jian Shuo, he can also use Jian Shuo's hands to do many things and further stir up troubles.

Liu Ming's current strategy is to take advantage of the fact that most people don't know whether his identity is true or false, and work hard to muddy the waters, so that he can fish in troubled waters and become invincible. Tomorrow, it will be a small test of one's skills in the imperial court.

……

While Liu Ming and Jian Shuo were conspiring, a conspiracy was also unfolding in another place in the palace.

That is the West Palace where Queen He lives.

He Jin, who was dark and fat, knelt down opposite Queen He with a gloomy face, looking very worried.

"That's what happened." Queen He's clear voice sounded, "Jian Shuo has taken advantage of the opportunity to control the military power in the forbidden area, and he has His Majesty in his hands. Moreover, he has the support of Empress Dowager Dong. Bian'er has no hope of becoming the prince. Their The purpose is to establish Liu Xie."

"Establishing Liu Xie is not the ultimate goal." He Jin said thoughtfully, "I have already seen through their minds. It is just that Liu Xie is younger and easier to be controlled by them. If His Majesty has any shortcomings, they can take the opportunity to control the court and eliminate Dissenters, command the world.”

"No matter what their purpose is, I only want my son to be the prince." Empress He waved her hand very domineeringly and said, "The world of the Han Dynasty can only be left in Bian'er's hands, otherwise you and I, and even the whole He Home, no one can escape.”

"There are many ways to get rid of Jian Shuo, but I have to choose a safe method." He Jin stood up and paced indoors, thinking, "The easiest way is to directly lead the troops into the palace and kill Jian Shuo. But it’s easy to give the courtiers an excuse. Currently, the courtiers are also eyeing our He family and have to be on guard.”

Queen He also stood up and asked anxiously: "What is the safest way?"

"I know those old foxes have been trying to encourage me to deal with the ten permanent servants, but in fact, I am not using them?" He Jin sneered, "The safest way is to let the courtiers test it out in the court first, and then Figure it out slowly."

"Xu Xu plans it?" Queen He was really anxious, her face turned pale, "If Xu Xu, that thief will make Liu Xie the crown prince, you should hurry up, if it doesn't work, just come directly to the palace, you are a day late, and you can argue My son and our He family will be in danger for one more day, and even His Majesty will suffer in the hands of thieves for one more day. You don’t know how wise and powerful His Majesty is, to be held in the hands of that eunuch like this is outrageous to both humans and gods!"

She thought again of the passionate moment she had with Liu Ming that night, which was the most exciting experience in the more than ten years since she entered the palace. She wished she could always be by His Majesty's side and be his only pamperer every day, but how could that hateful Jian Shuo be so arrogant and arrogant because of His Majesty's pampering? Baotian actually held His Majesty hostage, which is really unforgivable.

"It is inconvenient to stay in the palace for a long time. I will go back to the palace to discuss a countermeasure with my staff first." He Jin said and turned around and walked out. "I will make sure that the thief looks good in the court tomorrow!"

"Without further delay, hurry up, my general." Queen He sent him out the door and ordered a little anxiously.

Queen He watched her brother's back disappear, and then looked at the Changle Palace where her "husband" was. She couldn't help but sigh softly and murmured to herself: "Why am I so miserable?"
