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

Chapter 58 Changes in the harem
  Jian Shuo was in his office, looking at the newly placed memorials in front of him. He felt inexplicably irritated and swept all the memorials to the ground with a wave of his sleeves.

Last night he came back in a fierce manner, ready to use a "hard move", but he calmed down and thought about it, who should be allowed to carry out this hard move? Will it cause any disturbance? I fell asleep while thinking about it...

When I woke up this morning, without the energy from last night's drinking, I was a little hesitant as to whether I should use a soft move or a hard move.

Jian Shuo is fierce on the outside and soft on the inside. If he is passionate, he will do it, but if he is asked to plan carefully, he will waver and hesitate.

At this moment, Zhang Yang walked in and said, "General Qi, the general has already found out."

Jian Shuo suddenly stood up and said, "What's going on? Is there any banditry happening around Kyoto?"

"There are a few small thieves, but there is no big banditry." Zhang Yang said solemnly, "I'm afraid those who act in the name of banditry have ulterior motives."

Zhang Yang was still unclear about the specific details of the investigation into Dong Zhuo's efforts to quell the rebellion, but he could tell that someone was spreading rumors about the rebellion and wanted to take advantage of the situation.

"He guessed it again. Tufu He really has other plans." Jian Shuo said to himself, "Could it be that he is really targeting this general?"

At this time, Pan Yin hurriedly walked in, "General Qi, Queen He beat the Ningcai people to death last night!"

"Ah?" Jian Shuo was shocked. The death of someone in the palace was a big deal. As Guangxun, who was in charge of the affairs of the palace, it was difficult for him to get away from it. He hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"

Pan Yin told Jian Shuo what he had told Liu Ming.

"Huh huh!" Jian Shuo snorted coldly, "They all want the master to be in power, and all kinds of insects want to steal my general's rope!"

He didn't care about Ning Cairen's death. What made him angry was the fight between the Queen Mother and the Empress for the control of the harem. Jian Shuo had already regarded the harem as his own place, so how could he allow others to interfere?

Then he contacted the Queen Mother who was the "grasshopper" arranged by the emperor to spy on him. Jian Shuo's eyes showed a fierce look and said angrily: "Zhang Yang listened to the order and quickly led a thousand elite troops to surround the East Palace of the Queen Mother. Without this general's order, who would No entry or exit is allowed!”

"This..." Zhang Yang hesitated and openly besieged the Queen Mother. Isn't this tantamount to rebellion? "General, do you want to think again?"

"What else are you thinking about? My general's methods are already soft enough!" Jian Shuo scolded, "Go away quickly, otherwise military law will be enforced!"

"Follow the order!" Zhang Yang gritted his teeth and turned around.

He is also a ruthless character who has been on the border for a long time. This time he was sent by Ding Yuan to serve under Jian Shuo, hoping to pave a promotion path for Ding Yuan and his subordinates when Jian Shuo became prosperous.

It's just that Zhang Yang couldn't understand, the Queen Mother, that is His Majesty's biological mother. Your Majesty is obviously strong and healthy, how dare General Jian do this to his biological mother? Aren't you afraid that His Majesty will blame you?
  But he also heard some rumors that His Majesty was held hostage by Jian Shuo. Feng Fang, Zhang Liao and even Pan Yin were all sent by Jian Shuo to monitor His Majesty. If this was true, then Jian Shuo would be able to besiege the Queen Mother if he dared to do so. That makes sense.

After thinking about this, as a general, all he has to do is obey orders.

However, he still kept an eye on it, wrote a secret letter, and sent people to Bingzhou to hand it over to Ding Yuan. He himself immediately ordered a thousand people and horses to rush to the East Palace.

"There is no turning back when you shoot a bow!" Jian Shuo looked at the sky outside the window and murmured to himself, "If you take this step, there will be no turning back! If you succeed, you will be in a different world. If you fail, you will be wiped out. .”

Jian Shuo looked at Pan Yin beside him, thought for a while, and said: "Go and make arrangements quickly to find out what General He Jin is doing recently. The more detailed the better! I want to see what you are doing, General." What a reputation!"

"Yes!" Pan Yin agreed, turned around and left, first going to Changle Palace, then arranging manpower, and he himself left the palace.

Jian Shuo felt a little tired. Now he was fighting on both sides. He had to deal with the Queen Mother and the general. He felt that everyone in the world seemed to be against him, but he didn't have a helper. Hearing the sound of soldiers and horses in action outside, Jian Shuo hesitated for a moment and did not go directly to the East Palace to take command. Instead, he walked to Changle Palace by accident. It seemed that only here could he feel at ease.

…………

Empress Dowager Dong didn't sleep well all night, so she got up late today and was not interested in having breakfast.

I was still upset that a girl from the butcher family dared to talk back to me!

Thinking of the scene the day before yesterday when Queen He dragged the substitute and ran around the palace, followed by a group of concubines, she became extremely angry.

In addition, yesterday, he originally wanted to teach this shameless butcher girl a lesson, but unexpectedly she got choked, which filled his heart even more with hatred.

At this moment, a palace maid suddenly came in and reported: "Ms. Qi, something bad happened. The queen beat Ning Cai to death last night! She also threatened that the queen is the one who cares about the world and is in charge of the harem!"

"This bitch!" Empress Dowager Dong said with an angry look on her face, ruining her usual dignified appearance, and sneered, "She is not beating that naughty girl here, she is clearly beating her for me to see, and I want to let His Majesty judge her. Who has the final say in this harem!"

As soon as he got up and before leaving the palace, he suddenly heard people outside the palace shouting and neighing, and it was very confusing.

"What happened? Who is making the noise?" Empress Dowager Dong shouted loudly, "The harem is becoming more and more unruly!"

Empress Dowager Dong originally disagreed with her son Ling Emperor's idea of ​​finding a substitute as emperor, but unfortunately, Ling Emperor did not listen to her in the end.

Now that I see the chaos in the palace, I feel more and more that the search for a substitute was a foolish move made by Emperor Ling who was too ill and delirious.

"By the order of the General of the Army, the East Palace will be sealed off from now on. No one is allowed to enter or exit. Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed!" A voice outside the palace announced loudly.

"Who is so brave? If you dare to seal the East Palace, the Ai family will see how many heads he has grown!" Empress Dowager Dong was frightened and angry. She stood up and walked out, followed by several confidants and eunuchs.

Among them is Xia Yun, the permanent minister of the Central Committee. Recently, he has been responsible for taking care of Empress Dowager Dong's affairs in the East Palace.

When I opened the palace door, I saw that there were densely packed soldiers lined up outside the door, each of them holding swords and guns with a fierce look.

In front of the queue, there was a general named Angzang, wearing iron armor and holding a sword in his hand, looking coldly at the palace gate.

"Bold! Who sent you here?" Empress Dowager Dong couldn't help but weaken a little when she saw these soldiers. She plucked up the courage and said coldly, "Do you know where this place is? Now that the Ai family is passing on Yi's decree, the order You must withdraw your troops and horses immediately, otherwise none of you will be able to escape the crime of confiscating your family and exterminating your clan!"

The armored general was none other than Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang clasped his fists and said, "I am wearing armor and will only obey the general's orders. I hope the Queen Mother will not make things difficult for me."

"What a joke, where did such an unknown person come from? What qualifications do you have to bargain with the Queen Mother?" At this time, a high-pitched voice sounded, and everyone looked and it was Xia Yun, one of the ten permanent attendants.

Usually, when these big-headed soldiers see them, which one of their ten regular attendants would not nod, bow, and be respectful? Therefore, he didn't think that these people dared to do anything to him. Don't you want to live? Who dares to offend the Ten Constant Attendants?

"Stay out of the way! I want to escort the Queen Mother to find Your Majesty!" Xia Yun said and rushed forward.
