Chapter 42

Don't use people with suspicion, don't use people who are suspicious.

The aristocratic family system of this era forced Zhang Ming to use only some low-status people to enter the palace and work in the palace. Both Cui Ming and the four guards were sent to the palace since they were poor. His education has nothing to do with the children of the aristocratic family.

Zhang Ming needs to build a circle with him as the core.

There is no guarantee that the final destination of the people who reuse any family will not turn the interests of the court into the interests of the family, so Zhang Ming must be cautious about the people of the family.

As for the candidate for the lieutenant, it's not that he has no right to make decisions, but he feels that Wang Yun's opinion needs to be respected, because the lieutenant is in charge of the security of the entire Chang'an city, and the people in Chang'an city are dozens of times more than the people in the palace. It is not a level of difficulty to manage it, so he needs to unite the hands of the aristocratic family to restrain his behavior from above.

After finishing these, Zhang Ming went back to the bedroom to rest.

At the same time, Lu Bu brought Diao Chan back to Chang'an from Meiwu Starry Night in a hurry. Besides Lu Bu, there were also some elite troops. Of course, the large troops of the army and the food transport troops were still on the way. It is estimated that tonight I can't go back to Chang'an for a while.

As for the current situation of Meiwu, it is really tragic now. The city built by Dong Zhuo has been completely overthrown by Lu Bu's subordinates. Dong Zhuo's family members have all been killed by Lu Bu. I don't know how many beauties and teenagers Dong Zhuo raised were snatched away by Lu Bu's subordinates. All the food, gold, silver and jewelry were taken away by Lu Bu's subordinates, and they were brought back to Chang'an along the way.

Before leaving, Lu Bu asked his subordinates to set a fire, and burned all the traces of Meiwu and Dong Zhuo's existence, just like what Dong Zhuo did in Luoyang back then.

When Lu Bu brought Diao Chan to the Lu Mansion on a red rabbit horse, Wang Yun's people had already spotted them in the corner, and then went back to report.

Lu Bu himself hadn't noticed Wang Yun's people, after all, he just wanted to go back to the mansion now, and just wanted to have a good time with Diao Chan.

And Wang Yun also soon heard the report from his subordinates. He had been in contact with Lu Bu for a long time before, and the two talked extensively about the matter of killing Dong Zhuo.

Therefore, Wang Yun knew a thing or two about Lu Bu's habits. He knew that going to Lu's mansion tonight was a bit inappropriate, so he planned to pay a visit to Lu's mansion early tomorrow morning.

As for His Majesty's court meeting tomorrow, he doesn't plan to go.

If Zhang Ming, Wang Yun and others are still full of hope for the future of Chang'an, then Li Jue, Guo Si, Niu Fu and others must be terrified at this moment.

They didn't receive the exact news of Dong Zhuo's death until this afternoon.

It's just that they are all scattered in various counties near Chang'an, and even Dong Zhuo's troops are scattered in various places, making communication extremely difficult, and after hearing the news of Dong Zhuo's death, there was even a little confusion in their troops.

Li Jue's subordinates suggested to Li Jue that they can ask His Majesty to pardon them, because the current Chang'an City has not settled down, and the court will inevitably fear them. Dong Zhuo had also caused disasters in Chang'an, and with their current strength, they were no match for Chang'an.

Guo Si's subordinates also had the same idea.

Fan Chou's subordinates also had the same idea.

Zhang Ji's subordinates are no exception.

In short, the trend of asking for pardon quickly spread among Dong Zhuo's subordinates.

The only exception is Niu Fu's subordinates. Niu Fu himself is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law. He has a stronger hatred for Dong Zhuo's execution, so it is absolutely impossible for him to ask the court for pardon.

But he was helpless for a while. After all, without Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo's subordinates would be torn apart. With his current qualifications, there was no possibility of leading the other teams.

So he called Jia Xu, the auxiliary army. In his team before, Jia Xu contributed a lot of strategies and played a great role.

When Jia Xu came to the tent, he saw Niu Fu who was full of worries.

I saw Niu Fu saying, "Brother Wen He, Dong Zhuo is dead, and his subordinates Li Jue, Guo Si and others plan to ask the court for pardon, and we want to attack Chang'an to avenge Dong Zhuo. At present, the only team that can join our army is Hu Huan. Zhen is one, I have more than 5 men under my command, Hu Zhen has more than 3 men, and a total of more than 8 men, can we take Chang'an?"

Jia Xu pondered for a while, "Why did the general say that only two subordinates are willing to attack Chang'an?"

Niu Fu said angrily, "Li Jue, Guo Si, Fan Chou, and Zhang Ji have followed the lord for many years. I didn't expect that they would turn to the opposite side as soon as the lord died. Such a shameful act, I really don't want to be with them."

Jia Xu said slowly, "Then why doesn't the general give it a try?"

Niu Fu said angrily, "It's not that I don't plan to join hands with them, but the people I sent over there got the news that they have already submitted a letter of pardon to Chang'an City, and they want to ask for a pardon from the court. Having behaved in this way, how can I unite with it?"

Jia Xu said, "Don't worry, general. When I go to discuss the pros and cons with them on behalf of the general, they will naturally know how unreliable it is to serve the court. The general only needs to lead all the troops in Luoyang City and join Hu Zhen's troops to attack Chang'an." "

"Li Jue, Guo Si, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji and others are nothing more than fear of trouble. Knowing that Chang'an City is guarded by Lu Bu, they have almost no chance of winning if they attack Chang'an alone, but if they join forces, what will Lu Bu do?"

"As for the opinion of the imperial court, what does it matter? The imperial court has neither an army nor a general to defend the city. As long as we wait for the army to invade Chang'an, the emperor is not our puppet."

After listening to Jia Xu's words, Niu Fu suddenly realized, yes, the court has no soldiers and no generals, so what are they afraid of.

After Jia Xu left the barracks, Niu Fu began to collect food in the city, and this time he would lead all the troops to attack Chang'an City.

Zhang Ming, who was in Chang'an, didn't realize that the danger was coming. He was too tired this day and fell asleep early.

Early the next morning, under the service of the eunuchs and maids, he prepared to go to court again, but this time he did not see Wang Yun's arrival in the court hall, only Yang Biao, Huang Wan, Yang Xun, Yang Zan, Zheng Gongye, Shi Sun Rui and others, and Zhang Er, who he appointed yesterday, is now waiting as a guard in the hall.

Just when the court meeting began.

Seeing a small yellow door, he rushed into the court hall shouting "report, report, report". He was holding the letter of pardon from Li Jue, Guo Si and others in his hand.

Since Cui Ming has been promoted to be a permanent servant, the Xiaohuangmen is a new eunuch, and Zhang Ming is not familiar with it, because Cui Ming is currently managing the eunuchs in the palace.

"Your Majesty, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou have submitted letters."

Zhang Ming hurriedly asked Cui Ming to bring the letter from Xiao Huangmen, and he wanted to read it himself.

After Cui Ming handed over the letters from Xiaohuangmen to Zhang Ming, Zhang Ming opened them one by one.
