The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 78

"This is a bit troublesome!"

Wei Tao shook his head and smiled wryly. He also had contact with He Jin. Wei Tao knew that although He Jin was headstrong, he was actually a soft-hearted person.

As long as those eunuchs don't confront each other directly, but beg for mercy, He Jin will probably spare them once.

After all, the eunuchs have been in power for many years, especially the few who are ranked among the ten permanent attendants have more power in the court and the public, and their subordinates must be many lackeys.

If one fails, he will have to confront the eunuch.

The eunuch can't deal with He Jin, but it's still not a problem to deal with Wei Tao.

"Let him go."

Wei Tao just thought about it for a while, then smiled lightly and waved his hand lightly, but Zhang Liao was slightly taken aback.

"Let it go, if the eunuch only has this little trick, then the eunuch is not an eunuch. The power has been in Luoyang for so many years, which subordinate has no strength?"

Hearing Wei Tao's confirmation again, Zhang Liao no longer persisted and nodded, in order to let the man go and let him go in and out of the city.

At this time, Wei Tao did not stay here any longer. After entrusting some affairs to Zhang Liao, Wei Tao rushed to see He Jin.

Wei Tao's official position is not high, but his authority is heavy, so he was easily summoned by He Jin.

When Wei Tao arrived, He Jin had just returned from the outer mansion, and he was having a tea break, and when he saw Wei Tao coming in, he was planning to let Wei Tao drink with him.

But who would have thought that Wei Tao pushed the teacup, and then said with his hands clasped.

"General, your Majesty's safety depends entirely on the general's thoughts, how can the general sit still like this?"

I have to say that although He Jin is headstrong, if you have the ability, he can more or less listen to what he has to say.

So even though he heard Wei Tao's words, He Jin replied with a frown.

"How can I not care about His Majesty's safety? It's just that His Majesty still needs to rest now, even I can't even see him in person. What's more, what can I do now?"

He Jin also wanted to enter the palace, but no matter how powerful He Jin was, within the palace, a young eunuch from the Huang family was enough to block him.

What's more, Zhang Rang and others said something sinister: If it disturbs His Majesty's rest and makes His Majesty feel good or bad, I don't know if the general can bear it?
Such a sentence is enough to make He Jin helpless.

"The general has now contacted the princes of the court. Regardless of His Majesty's health, or what happens, there is always a seventy-eight percent chance of achieving what you want."

He Jin nodded proudly when he heard what Wei Tao said.

"However, if your Majesty unfortunately passes away Long Yu, and there is a will to make the weakling the emperor, I don't know if the general will be called or not?"

"what!"

Hearing Wei Tao's words, He Jin couldn't help but suddenly changed color, and stood up directly, his eyes widened, and he didn't even realize that the tea had completely wet his clothes.

"Where did you hear the news? Your Majesty... Does Your Majesty have a will?"

"Tao has never heard of anyone saying that."

Wei Tao calmly said with a slight smile, but he didn't wait for He Jin to get angry, and smiled again.

"However, Tao has seen that the eunuchs are not stable, so he must have planned in case."

Immediately, when he was about to intercept the people in the palace, He Jin suddenly heard it, and couldn't help squinting his eyes slightly.

"So what? What can it explain? Even if there are one or two rebellious ministers who dare to obey the eunuch's words, don't they dare to attack Luoyang blatantly?"

"Of course I don't dare. However, the general should be able to understand these days. Although all the important officials of the court are willing to support His Highness Liu Bian, there are also some people who want to curry favor with eunuchs, and even His Majesty."

He Jin immediately kept silent when he heard Wei Tao's words. Although such people are all low-ranking and low-ranking, there are indeed quite a few of them.

"Now the eunuchs are in control of the government, and if they join forces with foreign ministers, and with the support of some people who are in power, what will the situation be like then?"

What Wei Tao said was indeed only a possibility, but He Jin was shocked and speechless for a moment.

"General, what General Ziyu said is very true. The power of the eunuchs is in the court, so we must guard against it."

At this time, two people came in from the back hall, and the first one came in and talked.

These two people are none other than Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.

It turned out that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were discussing various matters with He Jin just now, when Wei Tao came to ask for an interview, Yuan Shao and the two just hid in the back hall.

However, after hearing Wei Tao's words, the two brothers couldn't sit still. This kind of support is so great, how can it be given to others?

"That's right, the general has already contacted the important officials of the court, and my Yuan family is more willing to help the general, isn't that enough?"

Seeing Yuan Shao open his mouth, He Jin was already moved, and Yuan Shu, who had always refused to accept being behind Yuan Shao, also hurriedly spoke.

"Besides, in case something goes wrong, isn't there me waiting for the captain of Xiyuan to help?"

Yuan Shu already had objections to what he said, even Yuan Shao couldn't help but glared at him: Can such words be said casually?

However, Yuan Shu didn't seem to realize it. On the contrary, he was quite complacent, because after hearing Yuan Shu's words, He Jin was already moved.

He Jin's mind is very clear.

Wei Tao's purpose of coming here has been achieved, so he doesn't need to say any more at this time, other people will naturally help He Jin make up his mind.

As expected, the princes of the court were dissatisfied with Liu Hong's delay in making a crown prince. As long as He Jin asked, even if he didn't answer, he just kept silent, hoping to see the success.

"Since the general has a heart, it is better to get things done as soon as possible. If there is any further delay, I am afraid that things will be leaked, and the eunuchs will be at a disadvantage."

When Cao Cao heard about it, he also came to persuade him.

"The position of the crown prince should be decided early, not later!"

Because of Wei Tao, Cao Cao could barely be regarded as He Jin's confidant. After hearing this and being persuaded by others, He Jin finally made up his mind.

"Please, gentlemen, join me in pleading with Your Majesty to express my affection."

From Wei Tao persuading He Jin to when He Jin made up his mind, it has been half a day. During this half day, He Jin's activities have been so frequent, and the eunuchs have spread their eyeliner widely. Naturally, He Jin can't hide it from those eunuchs. known.

Before they could reach the palace, someone had already reported that the palace was under martial law, Jian Shuo led the people, and no one was allowed to see His Majesty.

When the news came, everyone was in an uproar. No matter how absurd Liu Hong was, there was absolutely no reason to use the army to stop him.

"Could it be that Your Majesty has already returned to heaven?"

There are many wise men in the imperial court, and someone immediately exclaimed.

"If it weren't for this, how would a mere eunuch dare to act like this?"

"How dare a mere eunuch do this!"

He Jin stared wide-eyed, looking abnormally annoyed.

"Since Your Majesty is afraid that Long Yu will return to heaven, you should first restore the throne and then get rid of the thieves."

At this moment, Cao Cao stepped forward to speak.

"This matter is urgent, and I hope the general will make a decision!"

"Who wants to beg for a thief with my Zhengjun?"

Cao Cao's words fit He Jin's heart, and He Jin shouted without hesitation!
"A certain person is willing to lead 5000 troops, and he will definitely be able to suppress the eunuchs!"

Hearing He Jin's words, Yuan Shao immediately stepped out and said with cupped hands.

Yuan Shu always liked to compete with Yuan Shao the most. Seeing Yuan Shao take the first step, he immediately felt a little annoyed, and also stepped forward.

"Why do I need five thousand soldiers? You must give me three thousand soldiers, and I will surely be able to make a fortune for the general!"

"Good! Good! Good!"

Seeing that the Yuan brothers were all scrambling to beg for their lives, He Jin was naturally overjoyed and nodded repeatedly. This is how popular he is!
Fortunately, Mr. He Jin still knew that if the Yuan brothers were allowed to fight, it would take a long time, so he blamed it immediately.

"The eunuchs are just relying on the strength of their men and horses, and ordered the captains of Xiyuan to lead thousands of people to accompany them, and the eunuchs' gangsters must be wiped out one by one!"

"promise!"

He Jin's order took care of everyone, and Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Wei Tao, and Chun Yuqiong together had 2000 soldiers and horses, and He Jin himself brought [-] men, so his strength was not weak.

"How dare you advance! What is your purpose in bringing such a man here?"

Just arrived in the inner city, suddenly heard a shout.

"Do you want to retaliate?"

That person is none other than Jian Shuo.

Although Jian Shuo was an eunuch of the Huang family, he was quite tall and courageous, especially good at martial arts and the art of war. If he hadn't been an eunuch, he would have been a pillar of talent.

So at this time, the other eunuchs did not dare to stand out, but Jian Shuo had no taboos, and directly called him from the top of the city.

"Can I be turned into a mess? I just want to see your majesty, if your majesty is harmed by a villain, I will be the emperor of the Qing Dynasty!"

Although He Jin led the troops near the inner city, it was close to a rebellion, but He Jin naturally couldn't recognize it, but as soon as the word "Qingjun side" came out, He Jin already understood what he meant.

"May I ask if His Majesty is safe?"

At this moment, Wei Tao stepped forward on his horse and asked.

"If His Majesty is here, how can you prevent me from asking to see His Majesty? Now that the government is not working, it is up to Your Majesty to take care of it. If Your Majesty still needs to rest, you can immediately ask the crown prince to supervise the country."

"Your Majesty is resting now, and I don't want to see you. As for the establishment of the crown prince, Your Majesty has long thought about it. This is His Majesty's family business, and you don't need to worry about it."

But at this time, Jian Shuo just said with a cold face.

"It's fine if you want to see me, but if you disperse the soldiers and horses, I will inform you."

He Jin was slightly taken aback when he heard this, but he hesitated a bit. It is not easy to be called a traitor and traitor. It would be great if he could invite Liu Hongli and Liu Bian to be the crown prince with a group of officials.

"This is the eunuch's plan to invite you into the urn. How can the inner palace not know about the great momentum we have come here? Even if His Majesty is here, I am afraid that he will not be seriously ill. Go to the palace quickly to see His Majesty!"

At this moment, Cao Cao saw that He Jin was hesitating, so he immediately spoke up.

"Besides, the matter has come to this point, and the emperor must be sidelined, otherwise it will be a catastrophe. Please make a quick decision, General."

"Also ask the general to make a quick decision!"

Wei Tao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others beside him also respectfully invited them.
