The Most Powerful Man in the World

Chu Yi did not expect that Yuan Shao was not as indecisive and indecisive as he was later, but thinking about it, at the beginning of the Han Dynasty, many people compared to Yuan Shao. Dominating one side, occupying several states, Yuan Shao, who once made Cao Cao terrified, would not have been able to do this if he hadn't had a heroic spirit.

In the final analysis, people will change. At least in the early stage, Yuan Shao did not have any shortcomings in terms of ability or other. Otherwise, it would be impossible for so many talents to run towards Yuan Shao. As for Yuan Shao's growing power, , Yuan Shao's attitude changed drastically, that's another story.

At least at the moment, Yuan Shao can definitely be called the best among people. Otherwise, why would Cao Cao get so close to Yuan Shao?In the final analysis, it is to gather people in groups.

Yuan Shao stepped forward and helped Yan Liangwen Chou and Chou two up, laughing loudly: "Whoever is undefeated, if he loses today, he will chase after him, and if he wins again, Yuan believes that the two of them can do it. ."

Yan Liang and Wen Chou bowed down to Yuan Shao again with expressions of emotion on their faces, and said solemnly to Yuan Shao, "I will definitely live up to what Duke Ming expects."

Turning around, Yuan Shao cupped his hands towards Chu Yi and said, "Yuan lost this battle!"

After he finished speaking, Yuan Shao didn't show the kind of decadence he was defeated at all. Instead, he strode towards the high platform with a heroic expression on his face.

I don't know when Huang Zhong, who was standing beside Chu Yi, watched Yuan Shao stride away under the support of Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and said in a low voice, "A good Yuan Benchu ​​is not bad, especially that Yan Liang Wen Chou, After this defeat, I am afraid that when we meet again in the future, earth-shaking changes will definitely occur."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Chu Yi nodded slightly. Whether it was Yuan Shao, Yan Liang, or Wen Chou, they all gave him a new feeling. After all, the history he remembered was only history, but what he faced in front of him was a real person.

Nodding slightly at Lu Bu, Chu Yi strode towards the high platform.

On the high platform, everyone in the military and civil service was full of stunned expressions. Thanks to Yuan Shao, Chunyu Qiong and others' great publicity, almost everyone preconceived that this big colony must be the result of Yuan Shao's great victory. However, this time it was beyond everyone's expectations.

Looking at Yuan Shao, who had a heroic expression and was not affected by the failure just now, he nodded his head secretly, and praised him inwardly. As expected, he was a handsome man from the Yuan clan in Runan. It is enough to surpass [-]% of the heroes in the world.

He Jin squinted his eyes, almost staring at Yuan Shao who was approaching. To be honest, He Jin was really annoyed. He wanted to belittle Jian Shuo and Chu Yi in front of the emperor, and even criticized them. , originally expected Yuan Shao to be able to defeat Chu Yi, so that he would be able to take the opportunity of a great victory to force the emperor to remove Jian Shuo from the post of captain of the army.

However, Yuan Shao's defeat now made him lose face in front of the emperor, especially now that the emperor was looking at him with a strange look, which made He Jin feel aggrieved.

Yuan Shao naturally noticed He Jin's eyes, but Yuan Shao, such a person, naturally couldn't be too awe-inspiring for He Jin, he strode forward, and first said to the emperor for a week, "Yuan Shao's skills are not as good as others, and he has lived up to His Majesty's expectations. , and ask Your Majesty to punish you."

Under normal circumstances, the emperor would naturally want to beat Yuan Shao, but when Liu Hong, who was still immersed in joy at the moment, looked at Yuan Shao, he felt a little more pleasing than usual.

I'm afraid Yuan Shao didn't know it himself, just because he lost to Chu Yi, the emperor actually felt much more pleasing to the eyes of him.

With a wave of his hand, Liu Hong said: "Xiaowei Yuan, let's get up. To be able to train a new army to such a level, Xiaowei Yuan has done his best. It's just that Xiaowei Chu is better than you."

Hearing Liu Hong say this, Yuan Shao couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, why is Chu Yi better than him? If I really want to say, the reason why he suffered this defeat was all because of the invincible general Lu Bu.

In Yuan Shao's view, if it wasn't because of Lü Bu, with Yan Liang and Wen Chou in hand, and the elite soldiers on the side, how could it be possible that Chu Yi's rabble were his opponents.

Obviously, even now, Yuan Shao is still quite dissatisfied, thinking that he was defeated by the generals of the army and lost to Lu Bu, not because the soldiers and horses he trained were inferior to those of Chu Yi.

When it comes to the ability to train troops, Yuan Shao believes that he is definitely stronger than Chu Yi.

However, if he lost this time, he was defeated. The big deal was that if he could find the game again in the future, Yuan Shao wouldn't be able to afford to lose even a battle.

Silently retreating to He Jin's side, Yuan Shao lowered his head, not even paying attention to the way He Jin looked at him.

Chu Yi strode forward and bowed to the Son of Heaven. Liu Hong looked at Chu Yi with a smile on his face and said, "Captain Chu has a big victory in the school field today. That's the reward."

Saying that, Liu Hong looked around, glanced at Sangong Jiuqing and one of the important ministers, but the meaning could not be clearer.

However, Yiying Wenwu didn't seem to see the emperor's eyes. He sat there one by one without even the intention of opening his mouth. Seeing that he was about to be in the cold, Jian Shuo, who had been run and ridiculed by He Jin, was naturally at this moment. Excited for Chu Yi's victory.

Seeing Jian Shuo take a step forward, he said loudly to the emperor: "Your Majesty is very careful, and the rewards and punishments are clear. The minister Jian Shuo thinks that Chu Yi has done a good job in training the new army and should be rewarded. Only in this way can the army be reassured."

Liu Hong nodded when he heard the words: "The captain of the military academy is right, Chu Yi stepped forward to hear the seal!"

Standing aside, Yuan Huai and the other three princes and Jiuqing couldn't help frowning. Some people opened their mouths, but in the end they didn't open their mouths. Even a fool could see that Liu Hong had made up his mind to reward Chu Yi. If he jumped out to stop him at this moment, not to mention whether he could stop the emperor, I was afraid that he would hate the emperor first.

The emperor may not have a good way to take He Jin, but it is really not difficult to clean up one or two of them.

He heard Liu Hong ponder for a while and said, "Chu Yi has done a good job in training the new army, so I will make you the Marquis of Pingze Township..."

"Your Majesty can't!"

Before Liu Hong finished speaking, he saw the general He Jin stepped forward to stop him.

Liu Hong frowned and looked at He Jin and said, "Oh, what does the general have to say?"

He Jin first glanced at Chu Yi, Chu Yi was not affected at all, as if he was not the one who blocked Fenghou, but this calmness alone made He Jin secretly startled.

After all, the Han Dynasty had the highest military merit, and it was even more difficult to be named a marquis. They all said that Feng Tang was easy to be old, and Li Guang was difficult to be named. It was difficult for generals like Li Guang to be named a marquis.

However, now Liu Hong wants to seal Chu Yi a township marquis as soon as he opens his mouth. The great Han marquis are divided into Tinghou, Xianghou, and county. Zhuge Kongming was named Marquis of Wuxiang.

He Jin stood up at this moment to stop the emperor from sealing Chu Yi. Even the ten permanent servants looked sideways at Chu Yi at this moment. Although they said that each of the ten permanent servants was powerful, they were also named marquis by the emperor, but It was so easy for Chu Yi to be named a village lord, and even they were a little jealous.

He Jin cupped his hands and said, "Report to Your Majesty, if Your Majesty wants to award a reward to Colonel Chu, then the minister will certainly not dissuade His Majesty, but the importance of the title of Marquis, Your Majesty understands that if you indiscriminately confer the title of Marquis, you will definitely be punished by the people of the world. I think the emperor's reward and punishment are unclear..."

Leaning forward slightly, Liu Hong squinted at He Jin and said slowly: "Oh, so the general thinks that I don't know how to reward and punish me, but that I'm a stupor?"

Seeing Liu Hong staring at him calmly, He Jin felt a little nervous in his heart, took a deep breath and shook his head: "Your Majesty is a wise monarch, but even the ancient Yao and Shun made mistakes. , for the emperor's responsibility to check the leaks and fill the gaps, please think twice before acting..."

Liu Hong slowly got up, walked to He Jin, looked down at He Jin and said, "The general is right..."

Before He Jin was happy, Liu Hong stared at He Jin with a stern look in his eyes and said, "However, I have made up my mind, and I have made Chu Yi the Marquis of Pingze Township!"

The smile that just appeared on He Jin's face suddenly froze, obviously he didn't expect the emperor to insist so much, just when He Jin lost his mind, he heard Liu Hong's voice ringing in his ear: "Why, this big man The world, can't I even do how to reward others?"

When talking about this, Liu Hong's voice was loud and powerful, and a mighty emperor rushed toward his face. Even a foolish lord like Liu Hong, who has been in charge of the world for more than ten years, once he gets angry, the power that comes from his bones is also the same. very amazing.

"Chen...I dare not!"

He Jin subconsciously didn't dare.

Intimidating He Jin, Liu Hong turned his attention to other civil and military officials, squinted and said, "If the Qing family has no opinion, then this matter will be settled."

I thought that getting in and out of the horse could completely force the emperor to give up the imperial seal of Chu Yi, but he never thought that Liu Hong would suddenly break out. Everyone knows that Liu Hong can't stand the stimulation at this moment. For these old official foxes, of course not. Choose to jump out at this time.

Besides, which one of the ten permanent attendants does not have a marquis in his body, now Chu Yi's title as a marquis is nothing more than an extra eunuch, anyway, there are already ten permanent attendants, and more Chu Yi is not much, and one less is not much. , For the sake of a Chu Yi, there is no reason to stimulate the emperor at this time.

At the insistence of the emperor, Chu Yi was named the Marquis of Pingze Township and became a member of the Han nobles.

Watching Tian Ziluan drive away, and when all the civil and military members left, there was only one captain of the Eighth School of the West Garden. Chunyu Qiong and Xia Mu felt awkward. Not long ago, they I was looking forward to watching Chu Yi's jokes, but it turned out to be good now. Chu Yi suddenly became a dignified prince. Not to mention other things, at least he distanced himself from them in terms of status.

However, Yuan Shao bowed his hands to Chu Yi, said congratulations, and then left with Chunyu Qiong and others. No matter what Yuan Shao thought about it, but Chu Yi was able to get this award, it can be said that he stepped on him to ascend to the throne. Yes, it would be strange if Yuan Shao could really let go.

Cao Cao's face was filled with a bit of a smile, and he bowed his hands to Chu Yi with a sincere look: "Congratulations to Pingze Township Marquis, Chu Xiaowei can be proud of being named a marquis at such a young age, I am really envious of others!"

Facing Cao Cao, Chu Yi smiled slightly and said, "Chu's position as a village lord is a fluke. With Meng De's ability, he is a mere lord, but it's just within the palm of his hand."

At this time, Cao Cao did not have the will to dominate the world as he did later, and he still had great expectations and loyalty for the great man. It would be strange to say that he did not envy Chu Yi's being a marquis.Even if you know that Chu Yi is a village lord, but no matter how you say it, it is also the title of a village lord.

On the contrary, Jian Shuo came forward and patted Chu Yi on the shoulder: "It's so hard for you to hide me. If you had told me earlier that there were such powerful generals under my command, I would have had to worry about it for so long. ?"

Thinking of the pressure he had been under these days, Jian Shuo looked at Chu Yi with a bit of resentment in his eyes.

With a light cough, Chu Yi cupped his hands towards Jian Shuo and said, "Chu told Brother Jian long ago, but Brother Jian doesn't believe it, so what can I do!"

Jian Shuo was a little embarrassed when he heard the words: "Anyway, because of you, I've been terrified for these days. You can talk about how to make up for it."

Cao Cao on the side said with a smile: "In my opinion, it would be better if the Marquis of Pingze Township would serve as the host and entertain the Captain of the Army Commander. One would be an apology to the Captain of the Military Commander, and the other would be a celebration for the Marquis of Pingze Township and Fenghou."

Jian Shuo's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he high-fived and praised: "Wonderful, why didn't I think of this!"

Speaking of which, Jian Shuo looked towards Chu Yi, Chu Yi glanced at Cao Cao and said, "That being the case, today Chu will hold a banquet at Chunxiang Tower, and he also invites Brother Jian and Captain Cao to appreciate the light."

Not to mention that Chu Yi held a banquet in Chunxiang Tower to celebrate his being named a marquis, but he said that after leaving the Eighth School of the West Garden, the emperor's carriage had returned to the palace, and the civil and military officials had dispersed.

Back in the General's Mansion, He Jin walked into the living room, his face full of anger, he waved the tea brought by a servant to the ground, and the tea spilled on the ground, only scaring the maid. Kneeling to the ground with a thud.

At this moment, Xu You, who was serving under the general's command, walked over with his beard stroked, and when he saw He Jin with an angry face, Xu You smiled and said, "The general is so angry, is it because of what happened to the troops during this school field exercise? Accident?"

Seeing Xu You approaching, He Jin couldn't help but said angrily, "How did Yuan Shao promise to this great general earlier that the result would be good, but he was completely defeated in the contest with Chu Yi's subordinates, making the general lose face in front of the emperor! "

Xu You was stunned for a moment and said, "I never thought that a eunuch could have such good fortune. Could it be that there is something hidden in his background, so he can't be famous?"

He Jin snorted coldly: "What is famous, if it wasn't for a peerless general called Lu Bu under his command, such a change would not have happened this time."

Hearing what He Jin said, Xu You nodded slightly and said, "So it turns out, the number of soldiers and horses is limited in the school field exercises, and it is difficult for even the Army Soul Corps to exert its power, so the role of generals will be amplified. , a peerless general can undefeated a thousand armies, but if facing tens of thousands of troops, but only one way to defeat, then Lu Bu is a fierce general who can change the local battle situation."

Just as he was talking, a servant hurried over and bowed to He Jin: "General, Yuan Shao asks to see you."

He Jin, who was very angry, heard Yuan Shao coming, and his anger rose involuntarily. He waved his sleeves subconsciously and said, "No, tell him, this general doesn't want to see him!"

Just as the servant was about to leave, Xu You, who was standing beside him, coughed softly, "Hold on!"

After calling the servant, Xu You said to He Jin: "General, calm down. For such a result, I'm afraid that the last thing I want to see is Ben Chu. General, might as well listen to what Ben Chu said?"

He Jin snorted coldly after hearing Xu You's words, and said to the servant, "Let Yuan Benchu ​​come in and see me. I want to see what else he has to say."

Yuan Shao could naturally sense He Jin's anger, but he had no way of explaining it to He Jin at the time, so when the Son of Heaven left, Yuan Shao and Chunyu Qiong broke up and went straight to the General's Mansion.

Yuan Shao was very familiar with the General's Mansion. He had been in and out of the General's Mansion more than once, otherwise, Yuan Shao would not have gained He Jin's trust and reliance.

There are so many people with family backgrounds, why does He Jin rely so heavily on Yuan Shao, and in the end, he still values ​​Yuan Shao's ability. If it were someone else, he would be so shameless in front of the emperor, I'm afraid He Jin would have been angry long ago. on the other side.

Walking into the living room, Yuan Shao saw He Jin sitting there with a gloomy face and Xu You sitting beside him nodding towards him.

Yuan Shao nodded slightly at Xu You, then stepped forward to He Jin and said, "I have seen the general."

Looking up at Yuan Shao, He Jin snorted coldly, "Yuan Benchu, you made General Ben lose face in front of the emperor."

Yuan Shao said with a wry smile: "The general has seen today's situation. Who would have expected that Chu Yi would have a strong general like Lu Bu. Haikou is so close that it has almost become the laughing stock of the capital.”

The impact of this failure on Yuan Shao is not a little bit. After all, in order to knock Jian Shuo and Chu Yi to the dust, Chunyu Qiong and Yuan Shao spent a lot of effort to build momentum. Own.

The anger dissipated a little, and He Jin said: "You came to see me, what do you have to say?"

Yuan Shao took a deep breath and said, "Actually, Yuan has come here to tell the general that you must pay attention to your majesty's physical condition, and you must not let your majesty establish the position of the prince. The general in charge is in danger!"

As for why he joined a party, Yuan Shao naturally wanted to plan for why, and what He Jin supported was the prince debate. Once the emperor established the prince as the prince before he collapsed, as long as the emperor was not stupid, he would definitely deal with him first. Jin and He Jin's party carried out a major purge.

Whether Yuan Shao likes it or not, at least in the eyes of the emperor, Yuan Shao is He Jin's party, so Yuan Shao will remind He Jin solemnly, otherwise, if he is negligent, he will risk his own life. go up.

He Jin may not have as much strategy as Yuan Shao, Xu You and others, but that doesn't mean he's a fool. Yuan Shao is so straightforward. If he doesn't understand, he probably won't be able to go from being a butcher to being powerful today. to the point of.

He Jin squinted his eyes and said, "Your worries are not unreasonable. Your Majesty has always wanted to make the Prince's Association the Crown Prince, but it was only because he had no military power in his hands that he had not been able to do so. Now that the Eighth School of the West Garden has been established, Chu Yi, Jian Shuo, the two powerful eunuchs, took advantage of this victory to gain momentum, and if it is not good, the emperor will have the idea of ​​electing a prince."

On the side Xu You stroked his beard, and a cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes: "Chu Yi must not stay, otherwise, the emperor may really take risks..."

As Xu You looked at the general He Jin, He Jin shrank his eyes, and felt a sense of urgency in his heart. Even though he was a great general, he was also the biggest foreign relative in the world, and he could be said to be powerful.

However, don't forget that the lessons learned from the past are the teachers of the future. Let's not talk about it, just say that in just a few decades, two famous generals died directly at the hands of the eunuch due to a momentary negligence. General Liang Ji was killed by Shan Cao and others, and Dou Wu was killed by Cao Jie and others.

The fate of these two has always been a wake-up call for He Jin, so it is said that the relationship between He Jin and the ten permanent servants has always been very poor. One is the need for struggle, and the other is the struggle for power and profit. Now Jian Shuo and Chu Yi are in control of the military and horse power. If He Jin returns If you don't wake up, you don't know how to die if you're afraid of death.

Fortunately, He Jin didn't know. If there were no accidents, in a few years, He Jin would become the third general to be killed by the eunuch, and he would be passed down together with Liang Ji and Dou Wu to later generations.

He Jin took a deep breath and glanced at Xu You and Yuan Shao, "What should this general do to resolve this crisis?"

Xu You looked around, He Jin waved his hand immediately, and the attendants who were guarding the surroundings retreated one by one.

He Jin looked at Xu You expectantly, only to hear Xu You say: "I have two strategies, upper and lower, I don't know which strategy the general prefers."

He Jin heard the words and said, "Come quickly."
