Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt

Chapter 191 Sword in hand, punish eunuchs

After Empress Dowager Dong left, she immediately summoned Dong Zhong and ordered him to go to the Yuan Mansion to make contact.

As Liu Hong said, only with Yuan Kui's support can there be a possibility of discussing the matter of abolishing the elders and establishing the younger ones.

This is why Liu Hong has been hesitant.

Now Liu Bian and Liu Xie are staring at many forces. As soon as Dong Zhong entered the Yuan Mansion, Empress He, Zhang Rang, He Jin and others were notified.

He Jin immediately summoned Yuan Shao to ask what happened.

"At the beginning, when the old man saw Dong Zhong, what was his position?"

"General, General Hussars' visit must be because of Liu Xie, but the most urgent thing is not this matter, but the eunuch party!" Yuan Shao said.

"This matter may threaten the prince's status!" He Jin seemed worried, and turned to Xun You, "Gongda, what do you think!"

Xun You said: "Don't worry about the general. Yuan Gong will not stand in line easily. In the beginning, all the roads were willing to serve the general. The Queen Mother Dong relied on it. It was nothing but Jian Shuo. Now Zhang Rang is relying on the Queen, and Jian Shuo is relying on the Queen Mother. He always serves people's hearts." If it is not in order, it is time to eliminate thieves."

Xun You's point of view has always been the same, don't ask, just ask with a knife in hand, and kill the dog.

Chen Lin's eyelids twitched beside He Jin. This Xun Gongda only had eyes for killing thieves.

"Gongda, the situation is complicated at this time, don't act rashly, just one hair will affect the whole body!" Chen Lin persuaded.

"It's so complicated, as long as the eunuch party is destroyed and the general is around, this Luoyang will not be messed up!"

He Jin looked at Yuan Shao again, "At first, what do you think?"

Yuan Shao raised the sword at his waist, and said with high spirits: "The crime of eunuchs is too numerous to write down. As long as the general gives an order, Shao will personally lead the troops to capture it!"

Yuan Shao has been waiting for this day since the first day he became the Captain of Sili.

He Jin listened to several people's suggestions, and pointed the finger at the eunuch, which coincided with his heart. What made him most taboo was that Zhang Rang hooked up with Empress He and He Miao, and got involved in the internal affairs of the He family, so he must not let it go.

"At the beginning, you immediately mobilized your troops into the city, plus the tiger and cardinal cavalry on the road. I have a big weapon. I have ordered Ding Yuan to strictly guard the gates of Luoyang. The Xiyuan army cannot enter the city!" He Jin said.

Yuan Shao's eyes lit up, is he finally about to make a move? His habit of sharpening his sword has never changed.

Fortunately, brother Meng De is not here, otherwise he would definitely say something like think twice before acting.

It is said that Meng De has been arresting Wang Fen in Jizhou for several months...

……

In the palace, Zhang Rang was extremely anxious. He Jin's actions had already been heard in his ears. Unexpectedly, as soon as he thought of harming He Jin, He Jin would directly respond to his actions.

Zhang Rang even wondered if there was an inner ghost!
For the current plan, we can only ask Empress He for help.

Empress He looked at Zhang Rang Zhao Zhong and others who were kneeling in front of her, and she was also surprised, her brother was so bold?
She didn't quite believe it.

"You don't need to worry, the generals will definitely not enter the palace to kill people without authorization. I will call the general and explain the situation to him." Empress He said.

Zhang Rang had doubts again and again, and still planned to inform Queen He of His Majesty's arrangement.

After all, His Majesty might die at any time. At that time, when Liu Bian succeeded to the throne, Empress He had the final say.

"Empress, I have something to tell you!" Zhang Rang said.

"What's the matter?"

"Yesterday, Your Majesty asked the old slave to issue an edict to make Liu Biao the Jingzhou Shepherd and Liu Dai the Yanzhou Shepherd. Also, and... Your Majesty wants to restore the Bohai Kingdom, and make Liu Qing the King of Bohai."

Empress He frowned, she had heard of this Liu Qing many times.

About Liu Qing, there was a lot of rumors in Luoyang City. It was said that he was a young man with a heroic personality, not only resourceful, but also extremely brave.

Empress He has heard a lot, and her impression is also the image of a handsome young man with both civil and military skills, but it is a pity that Liu Hong doesn't value her highly.

Why does Liu Hong want to restore the country for him at this time?
Empress He was also very puzzled.

There are also Liu Biao and Liu Dai, with their qualifications, they are not enough to sit in this state pastoral...

The only thing the three have in common is that they are all surnamed Liu!

Although Empress He doesn't understand state affairs, she still knows what state shepherd means.

Limu is equivalent to entrusting the land of a state, with a position above the county guard and in charge of the military and political power of a state. The distance between it and the princes is only one title short.

Now Liu Yan shepherds Yizhou, Liu Yu shepherds Youzhou, Dong Zhuo shepherds Bingzhou, Huang Wan shepherds Yuzhou, if Jingzhou and Yanzhou are added, then this world...

Even if Bian'er succeeds to the throne, will this world still be dominated by Zhui'er?

"Has the edict been issued?" Queen He asked in a cold voice.

"The edict has been drawn up, but it has not been issued in time." Zhang Rang said.

Empress He turned around calmly, her brows furrowed even deeper.

There may be a turning point in this matter!

"This edict will not be issued for the time being, how is your majesty?" Empress He asked.

"Hey, Your Majesty is sometimes angry, sometimes full of anger, but his face is getting uglier... I'm afraid, I'm afraid..." Zhang Rang still didn't dare to say it.

"This imperial edict must have been drafted by His Majesty when he was in a trance. It cannot be counted, and it must not be issued!" Empress He spoke loudly and made a decisive statement.

Zhang Rang showed embarrassment, this is His Majesty's edict!It's an imperial decree!
This kind of thing is a matter of losing one's head!
The attendants behind Zhang Rang shrank their heads, almost wanting to bury their heads in the ground, not wanting to hear such shocking words.

"If you listen to me and destroy the edict, I will intercede with the general for you, otherwise..." Empress He did not continue.

Zhang Rang's heart trembled, thinking that this woman is so ruthless, she had clearly agreed to cooperate with Shi Changshi, but forced her to destroy the imperial decree, Zhang Rang knew that once he did this, the deadly handle would always be held by Queen He in hand.

Taking bribes and breaking the law, doing evil, and framing Zhongliang are trivial matters in their eyes, but disobeying the holy will and destroying the imperial edict are the crimes of punishing the whole family for the eunuchs!

"Queen, don't worry, this old slave will handle this matter well!" Zhang Rang agreed first.

Empress He gave a faint "hmm" without turning her head, and said, "Your Majesty needs more care, remember to supplement with soup."

After finishing speaking, Empress He left straight away.

Zhang Rang lowered his head, no one saw him, his face was pale and his body trembled slightly.

……

In the evening, Zhang Rang received the news that He entered the palace and met Empress He. Under the "persuasion" of Empress He, He Jin agreed not to deal with Shi Changshi, but——

Ten servants are needed to hand over Jian Shuo.

Zhang Rang directly cursed the [-]th generation of the ancestors of the He family in his heart. Anyone with a discerning eye in Luoyang knew Jian Shuo's position, and even said that the ten servants were betting on the two princes separately. steps.

Empress He borrowed soup to make up for others, and He Jin borrowed a knife to kill people. These two brothers and sisters are very scheming, cruel and daring.

But it made Shi Changshi miserable.

Zhang Rang once again gathered a few people to discuss and use ginseng soup to make up for His Majesty's affairs. All the regular attendants know that His Majesty is hanging on his life with thin gruel, and once he makes up for it, something will happen!

It is impossible for Empress He not to know about this.

As for Jian Shuo, he was not actually one of the ten servants from the very beginning, he was a close friend who was promoted by Liu Hong because of his military strategy, and now he is commanding the West Garden Army for His Majesty.

Zhang Rang thought a lot, and said: "Everyone, Empress He ordered us to murder Your Majesty, destroy the edict, and kill Jian Shuo. If Jian Shuo dies, the West Garden Army will belong to He Jin. We will die without a burial." place!"

Zhao Zhong quickly echoed: "This matter is impossible, if Your Majesty dies, we will lose power in an instant, and we will be alone and helpless!"

"Destroy the imperial decree. If the queen bites back in the future, I will die!" Duan Yu said.

Guo Sheng didn't say a word, his face was calm.

Zhang Rang re-said: "Pursuing Your Majesty, destroying the imperial decree, punishing Jian Shuo, hehehe, I have a question, you should think about it."

All the attendants looked at Zhang Rang, wondering what he wanted to say.

"Jian Shuo is powerful and courageous. He Jin is a Nanyang butcher with a big belly. In your opinion, is it easier to kill Jian Shuo or He Jin?"

This is not a multiple choice question at all, but a judgment question.

Mentally retarded people find it easy to kill Jian Shuo.

"Empress He intends to murder His Majesty and tamper with the sacred will. He Jin supports himself and wants to harm our loyal ministers. Isn't everyone going to kill him? I want to call Jian Shuo into the palace and lie down in Changle Palace, and then pretend to call He into the palace. Miansheng, kill him, and then tell His Majesty about Empress He, His Majesty will definitely reward us, and..." Zhang Rang paused, then smiled, "Don't Your Majesty like the Prince's Association? For the sake of things, His Majesty will be delighted to hear and see if the elders are abolished and the younger ones are replaced, and we will make peace with Jian Shuo and help the prince to cooperate together, wouldn't it be beautiful!"

"Zhang Changshi is brilliant!"

"I admire you!"

"It is worthy of being the head of all the regular attendants, and I will definitely look forward to Zhang Changshi's lead in the future!"

All the attendants nodded in agreement, praised Zhang Rang, and even Guo Sheng agreed, but his eyes flickered, obviously he couldn't sit still anymore.

Zhang Rang's plan was in place, so he acted immediately, summoning Jian Shuo into the palace overnight, and they also began to plan.

The sun was already dim, and things could be seen vaguely. With a foot of the palace wall, Guo Sheng confessed lightly and hastily to a palace official.

"... Be sure to tell the general what happened, and you must not enter the palace tonight!"

After speaking, he fled into the darkness.

……

"Dare the eunuch!"

He Fu, He Jin immediately cursed when he heard the tip-off.

He believed Guo Sheng's news, because the two were born in the same county. After Empress He was established, He Jin was able to become a general, and Guo Sheng contributed. Of course, the He family gave him a lot of feedback. The "friendship" between the two is naturally very rich.

Guo Sheng knew that if the He family was defeated, he would not be able to have the current status and benefits.

"Before summoning Yuan Shao to lead the troops to the palace gate, order Wu Kuang and Bao Xin to gather troops and horses immediately, follow me to the palace gate, and then send someone to notify Wu Qiong, the school captain of the city gate, to close the city gate and take strict precautions. Ding Yuan, intercept and kill Jian Shuo!"

He Jin gave a series of orders, with a whip in one hand and a sword in the other, and hurriedly walked out, continuing to curse.

"Livestock eunuchs, you will never see tomorrow!"

The master secretary Chen Lin hurriedly followed, "General, you must not take risks at this time! If the eunuchs really have the intention of murdering, the vicinity of the palace is no longer safe at this time!"

He Jin was upright, so he couldn't listen.

Looking at the figure of He Jin going away, Chen Lin sighed, "If Cao A is hiding it, I'm afraid I can persuade He Jin, huh!"

A voice came from behind: "Hey, the general asks a question and refuses to accept it. It is not a good lord."

Chen Lin turned around and saw that it was He Jin's staff member Feng Ji, who he knew well and was quite strategic, but most of the time, he was taciturn.

What he said today seems to have revealed the reason, and also expressed Chen Lin's heartfelt feelings.

It's too tiring to be the master book for He Jin!

The two walked out slowly and followed He Jin.

……

Jian Shuo received Zhang Rangzhi's letter before dark and was overjoyed.

Zhang Rang's plan coincided with what he and the Empress Dowager Dong thought. Jian Shuo immediately led a thousand soldiers and entered Luoyang City. As Jian Shuo now, the city gate did not receive special orders, so naturally he would not stop him .

When Wu Qiong, the school captain of the city gate, received He Jin's order, Jian Shuo had already entered the city.

"It's one step away, I have to watch Ding Jianyang!" Wu Qiong said.

Outside the palace gate, the torches were brightly lit, and the spacious avenue was crowded with soldiers, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and He Jin's troops were all present.

In addition, in Luoyang City, there are still some people who have some power, such as Hussar General Dong Zhong, Taiwei Zhang Wen, and Chariot General He Miao. They were shocked when they heard that He Jinbing forced the palace, and then they thought clearly , He Jin is going to attack the eunuch.

After all, everyone in Luoyang knew about the enmity between He Jin and the eunuch.

Lieutenant Zhang Wen chose not to concern himself with the matter, and Dong Zhong gathered troops and horses to pay close attention to them, while He Miao led the troops in person.

He Jin pressed the sword in his hand and stared at the palace gate.

Yuan Shao stepped forward, with fire in his eyes, and said: "General, outside the palace gate, you have completely grasped it, you should take advantage of this time to enter the palace, eradicate the eunuchs, and secure the world!"

"Wait at the beginning!" He Jin was still looking at the palace gate, he was waiting.

"General, the arrow is on the string, don't miss this opportunity!" Seeing that He Jin remained calm, Yuan Shao spoke again, with piercing eyes, looking at the people behind He Jin, hoping that they would speak.

Chen Lin and Feng Ji looked at Yuan Shao, they seemed to see something in Yuan Shao's eyes, they looked at each other tacitly, and did not speak.

At this time, the palace gate suddenly opened, and a yellow gate came out, high-spirited, and just about to speak, but saw fires everywhere outside the palace gate, and the glint of knives. The voice said: "General, Your Majesty has summoned you."

He Jin remained unmoved, quietly staring at the yellow gate in the crack of the palace gate.

"General, Your Majesty summoned you, please go quickly." Huangmen repeated.

"Is Er teaching me how to do things?"

A cold light flashed in He Jin's eyes, and he looked at Wu Kuang beside him, who quickly took the crossbow trigger from the crossbowman beside him, and pulled the trigger at the yellow gate without hesitation.

With a scream, Huangmen fell down.

"General Wu is good at archery. If you take the first drop of blood tonight, you will be rewarded with a reward of [-] yuan!" He Jin announced loudly.

As a result, the soldiers all became restless after hearing this. Tonight is a sleepless night and also a night of killing.

It's a rich night!

"General!" A voice called out from behind, followed by a rush of horseshoes.

He Jin followed the prestige, and saw a tall and mighty general, riding a tall horse, coming to the front of the army majestically, and threw a head casually.

He Jin and the others took a closer look and found that it was Jian Shuo!

"Bu Nai is in charge of Jinwu's account. Under the orders of the general, he intercepted and killed Jian Shuo. He encountered him in Xishi. Here is his head!"

The man on the horse came slowly, without arrogance or impetuosity, as if killing Jian Shuo, which is very common.
