The Nameless of the Common Clans
Chapter 167 Jian Shuo's Last Will
Wang Yun had just returned to Luoyang. Luoyang had changed a lot since he left. He needed to build up his network again. As for how to build up his network, inviting guests to drink was the most common and effective way. Guests would give the host some face. If he invited more guests, he would naturally have network.
However, it was not an ordinary posthouse. It had to be well-known. After all, Wang Yun, who was of such status, invited many celebrities.
Wang Yun had seen too many young talents in his life, but not many of them could stay calm after they succeeded at a young age. Chen Mo was one of them, but the bad thing was that he offended him.
He was tricked twice in a row, but he was easily evaded. Although Chen Mo looked like he didn't know, how could Wang Yun believe it? The first time might be a coincidence, but the second time was because this young man was very cunning.
Later, he went to talk to Chen Mo, originally wanting to see if he could anger the young man, but he really acted as if nothing had happened, talking about the past and the present with him. At the end of the conversation, Wang Yun found that he admired the young man's knowledge, but at the same time, he was also wary of Chen Mo.
If there was no grudge between them, Wang Yun would not mind making friends with such a person, but if there was a grudge, that would be a different mentality. He somewhat regretted provoking this person without understanding him, and it was also because Chen Mo's age and harmless appearance were too deceptive.
But after two failures, Wang Yun did not dare to act recklessly again, especially when he saw Chen Mo talking happily with people like Lu Zhi and Xun Shuang at the banquet, Wang Yun chose to forget about it temporarily.
These two were not people he could provoke. He had just returned to Luoyang and had not yet made any great moves, but he had offended two great scholars in the country. That was not a good thing.
The banquet was still very pleasant. Chen Mo was happy to have another meal. Although he was not promoted, he had more military power. Although He Jin allocated some military pay to him, it was not enough. It was better to save some.
Chen Mo hated this behavior of increasing military power but not salary.
"I heard that He Suigao issued an imperial edict today to summon the powerful people from all towns to gather in Luoyang?" After three rounds of wine, everyone was a little confused. Lu Zhi looked at the people around him, turned his head and looked at Chen Mo beside him and asked in a low voice.
"Yes, Lord Lu also thinks it's inappropriate?" Chen Mo nodded. The incident had already happened. It was meaningless to say how it was wrong. Instead, it would make people hate it. However, since Lu Zhi mentioned it, Chen Mo followed his words to ask for advice. Older people like to teach the younger generation. He is just a good student now.
"It's inappropriate, but you guys are pushing too hard." Lu Zhi nodded and sighed. He had been in the court for many years, and he had seen through many things. He would not think that all the faults were on He Jin.
In fact, in the current situation, although the eunuchs have lost their power, they can still restrain the scholars. He Jin also needs eunuchs to balance the scholars. If this continues for a few years, the eunuchs will basically be unable to do anything, and the court can gradually stabilize. By then, it doesn't matter whether the eunuchs are killed or not. The scholars want to seize power and have the ability to gradually sideline He Jin. This is the most perfect.
But the Luoyang scholars obviously don't want to wait that long, so He Jin seems to be in great glory, but he is forced by the celebrities to want to kill people every day. It is not wise to find a new balance point at this time. The situation has not been completely stabilized and it is easy to cause chaos again, but Lu Zhi understands that there is nothing he can do. The young generation of celebrities such as Yuan Shao obviously don't have the patience to wait any longer. Lu Zhi's words are useless. This is not a matter of one or two people, but the desire of the entire Luoyang scholars to be in power completely.
Why it became like this is a question worth pondering, but it is obviously not suitable to be discussed here. Lu Zhi only touched on it and then discussed with Chen Mo more about things that cultivate sentiments, such as literature and poetry.
The old man has been worried about the Han Dynasty all his life. In his old age, he watched the situation deteriorate but was powerless. No matter how smart others are, it is difficult to understand that feeling.
"Gao Shun told me about your matter." When talking about the military camp, Lu Zhi couldn't help but say: "Gao Shun is upright, but he is not inflexible. This matter is not your fault, but it can't be blamed on him either."
Gao Shun is considered to be Lu Zhi's old general. Lu Zhi also admires this general very much. He has recommended him to the court several times, but Gao Shun is not very receptive to many things in the officialdom, so he has never been promoted. This old subordinate rarely comes to visit, and once he comes, he is confused.
"I know." Chen Mo nodded. This kind of person is stubborn and stubborn, but sometimes, when the naked reality collides with the concept, it is not a one-way road.
"It can be seen that he admires you very much. Now the secret is solved. If this person can be used well, he can defeat 100,000 soldiers." Lu Zhi smiled. He obviously felt a bit of a master-disciple relationship with Gao Shun. This is a feeling, not necessarily a formal one.
"Don't worry, Lord Lu, I'm not that stingy." Chen Mo smiled.
Cao Cao drank a cup of wine, glanced at Chen Mo, showed a fake smile, turned his head and continued to drink with Chen Mo. The young people nowadays are full of nonsense, and they will please the old people. I am ashamed to be with them!
It was a bit sour. Lu Zhi had never talked to me so kindly. In terms of talent, I was not much worse than Chen Mo.
A banquet, the host and the guests were happy. For Chen Mo, this was also an opportunity to make connections. Although this banquet was not held by him, sitting next to Lu Zhi and Xun Shuang and talking to them was a very respectable thing in itself, which could make people look up to him.
After the White Dew, the weather gradually began to cool, but it was quite cool. The Book of Rites says that the cool breeze arrives, the White Dew falls, and the cicadas sing. This is the season, the hot summer has passed, and the autumn is refreshing.
Early in the morning, Chen Mo got up early and stretched his body. Looking at the concubine who was still sleeping soundly on the couch, he curled up unconsciously as Chen Mo lifted the quilt.
Maybe last night was a bit too much, so that he woke up now and the other party didn't notice it at all.
After covering Yun Si with the quilt, Chen Mo put on his clothes and went out. There was nothing to do today, so he should go to the military camp to have a look and eat breakfast in the military camp.
After Jian Shuo was killed, Chen Mo added a battalion of troops, all of which were separated from the upper army. Chen Mo specifically asked Cui Geng to come. Now he has Gao Shun, Zhong Yun, Cui Geng, and Yu Sheng under his command. In addition, Dian Wei, Bao Geng, and Da Lang are considered to be capable. Dian Wei is suitable for being a pioneer and is unparalleled in charging into battle, but he doesn't like riding a horse and prefers fighting on foot, which is a bit of a headache.
Now that the four powerful people are entering the capital, Chen Mo is considering how to highlight the status of his troops among a group of powerful troops when these powerful people arrive?
I heard that the border army is very powerful, but I haven't seen it. Chen Mo is not sure about the opponent's combat effectiveness. However, judging from the level of this part of the troops separated from the upper army, although the border army is strong, it may not be invincible.
Just arrived at the military camp, before Chen Mo went to eat, he saw Cui Geng saw Chen Mo coming to the camp and quickly brought someone over.
"General, do you know this person?" Cui Geng pulled the man in front of Chen Mo and smiled.
"Pan Yin?" Chen Mo saw the person coming, smiled and nodded, and said, "Why is Sima Pan here?"
He remembered that when the troops were divided, Pan Yin's troops should have been assigned to He Jin's command. Why did he suddenly come to him?
"General!" After hesitating for a moment, Pan Yin saluted Chen Mo and said, "Before Mr. Shuo got into trouble, he left something to me and ordered me to find a loyal man to give it to him."
Chen Mo looked at Pan Yin and said, "Loyal man? Why are you looking for me?"
"The general has made many military achievements for the Han Dynasty. Although he is young, he is my Han..." Pan Yin was interrupted by Chen Mo before he finished speaking.
"Sima Pan is joking. If this is a loyal man, there are too many in Luoyang. I am young and weak and can't help Sima Pan. As for Mr. Shuo's will, I'd better find someone else to entrust it to." Chen Mo is most annoyed by others flattering him. Generally, when someone suddenly praises him, it is either to ask for something from others or to prepare to pit him.
"But this matter concerns the country!" Pan Yin saw that Chen Mo didn't listen, and hurriedly said.
"Mo is just a lieutenant. His job is to defeat bandits and guard the forbidden province. The weight of the country is too heavy for me. Sima Pan should find someone else." Chen Mo waved his hand and said, "Cui Geng, send the guest away!"
Pan Yin saw that Chen Mo had no intention of letting him continue, so he could only sigh helplessly and bowed to leave.
Not long after, Cui Geng came back: "General, why didn't you accept the things left by Jian Shuo?"
"Why did Jian Shuo die?" Chen Mo looked at Cui Geng and asked with a smile.
"He was executed for plotting to murder the general." Cui Geng bowed.
"I don't know why Pan Yin came to me." Chen Mo stood up and said, "But Jian Shuo is dead. Do you think I can fight the general on his behalf?"
As for what Jian Shuo left behind, it's best not to touch it, and don't think about knowing it. It's not his turn to take care of such things, especially when he tried to accept the idea just now, his luck instantly dropped a lot. He quickly gave up the idea and recovered.
The thing in Pan Yin's hand is probably a trap, at least Chen Mo will trap him to death.
The four powerful people are about to enter Luoyang, and whether the Ten Eunuchs will get the news, and if they do, how they will fight back, are all problems. At this time, if the foundation is not strong enough and the life is not strong enough, it is better to be quiet.
"General!" Not long after, Bao Geng came back with two scouts. When Pan Yin left just now, Chen Mo made a gesture and they went to see what Pan Yin was doing.
"How is it?" Chen Mo gestured Cui Geng to kneel down and looked at Bao Geng.
"Pan Yin did not return to the camp, but sneaked to the palace." Bao Geng said.
"General, Pan Yin was Jian Shuo's confidant in the past, but Jian Shuo sent him to invite the general to the palace that day, and he had a meeting with Empress He." Cui Geng said.
So now it is a little hard to figure out which side Pan Yin belongs to.
"Okay, let's not discuss this matter anymore, let's go to training!"
"Yes!"
