Thirdly, if the foreign troops arrive, the Empress Dowager He may not be able to agree even if she wants to, and after killing the 'ten servants', she can also put the blame on the Northwest Army. You are not responsible for this, General It hurt the relationship between you and the Empress Dowager He's brother and sister.

"Hahaha! At the beginning, this plan is very clever. It is worthy of being born in the fourth generation and third prince." He Jin clapped his palms and laughed, but still hesitated a little. "However, should we discuss this matter with Meng De?"

"General, Meng De was drunk today in the Xuanjia army camp outside the city, and he has not woken up from a sleepless night. I'm afraid he can't be called to discuss this matter!" Hearing that He Jin wanted to ask Cao Cao's opinion, Yuan Shao immediately became jealous With a moderate fever, he began to put eye drops on Cao Cao.

"Oh? Xuanjia Army, the hangover is still there!...If this is the case, then follow the original plan!"

"promise!……"

That night, a team of messengers set off from Luoyang at night and headed straight for Xiliang... where, a ferocious tiger will be brought to the capital!

At the same time, in a dark corner of the General's Mansion, a pair of charming peach blossom eyes can see everything clearly...

107. Chapter 107 Purple Wood Reappearance

It is said that where there are people, there are right and wrong, and where there are right and wrong, there are spies. This statement is really unnecessary!

If the imperial palace is a house with air leaks from all sides, then He Jin's Grand General's Mansion is simply a dilapidated shack without a fence. "The wind can enter, the rain can enter, and spies can enter even more", it is really impossible to keep any secrets.

Early the next morning, when Cao Cao woke up, he immediately learned that He Jin had sent soldiers from Xiliang to Beijing. As a member of the government, he naturally had his own information channels, and there were more than one.

Moreover, Cao Cao also knew that it would not take long for this news to spread throughout the streets and alleys of Luoyang, and of course it would not be able to hide it from the eunuchs in the palace.

"This is the way to bring disaster! Never!" Jumping up from the bed, Cao Cao ran to the inner house of General He Jin with his hair disheveled, ignoring the tidying up of his clothes. The attendants were stunned, although they all knew that General Cao was always informal, but today was too crazy... This is a half-naked run!

"General, you must not transfer troops from Xiliang! You must not!" Cao Cao broke into He Jin's bedroom by pulling away two guards guarding the door with his hands, and shouted loudly without paying attention to salute.

He Jin, who had a good night's sleep, just woke up at this time, sitting on the bed, with a Shu brocade inner robe tightly wrapped around his shirtless upper body, revealing his obese body, and his palm-length hair. It looks three parts human, and seven parts more like an undeveloped beast; beside the two beautiful concubines who slept last night, one is holding a green salt jar, the other is holding a thin willow stick, carefully serving the general to rinse his mouth.

Green salt, also known as "lake salt" and "rock salt", is the best among salts. It tastes salty, cold in nature, has cooling blood, and has the effect of improving eyesight. Because the color is white and green, people are used to calling it Green salt, because its origin is far in the northwest, the distance is far away, and the shipping cost is extremely high, so it cannot be used by non-big nobles.

He Jin was gargling with his head up, but was startled by Cao Cao's sudden intrusion. Instead of spraying out the mouthwash, he swallowed it all. Because he swallowed too quickly, a lot of it entered the trachea, choking He coughed continuously, and the two concubines quickly slapped He Jin's back vigorously, helping He Jin to breathe!

"Meng De is in such a hurry, what's the matter?" After a long time, He Jin regained his composure. Seeing that it was Cao Cao who barged in, the anger on his face eased a little. After all, during the last coup d'état , Cao Cao made great contributions to him by making suggestions and running overnight. If it were someone else, he would have to be severely punished.

"I heard that the general wants to send troops from Xiliang to Luoyang, so I'm here to dissuade you!" Cao Cao stepped forward, and continued with a solemn expression, "This is the way to bring disaster, it must not be done!"

"The 'ten permanent servants' are so wicked that they colluded with foreign ministers and wanted to murder the general. I want to act first and punish the eunuchs and the party to clean up the country. Why not?" He Jin gestured to the two of them. Concubine Ji put on her clothes and replied casually.

"The power of eunuchs has been around for a long time, and they have long been intertwined in the court. If the general wants to kill them all, I am afraid that the involvement will be too extensive and make people uneasy; now that the new king has only ascended the throne not long ago, people's hearts have not yet settled down. It’s not the best strategy to kill!” After a pause, Cao Cao saw that He Jin’s face became gloomy again, knowing that this time it would be impossible not to see the blood, so he had to minimize the killing as much as possible, so He continued: "To get rid of the evil, you only need to get rid of the leaders. The 'Ten Permanent Attendants' have lost their power now. To kill them, you only need to appoint a jailer. Why bother to recruit foreign soldiers into Beijing!... You know, foreign soldiers The soldiers are elite and unruly, they are definitely not comparable to these forbidden troops in Luoyang City, once troubles arise, how can we control them?"

"Meng De is worrying too much. I am a general and I am in charge of the military power in the world. Who would dare not listen to orders?" Instead of listening, He Jin's face flashed with arrogance, and then his eyes flickered, as if thinking of something, a little Jokingly said: "Meng De has repeatedly prevented the general from killing eunuchs, is it because of the same root of love?"

He Jin's words are really heartbreaking. Cao Cao's father, Cao Song, was originally the son of the Xiahou family. He was adopted by the great eunuch Cao Teng, so he changed his surname to Cao. That is to say, Cao Cao's identity is the adopted grandson of the eunuch. No matter how you say it, the background is filthy, and it has always been taboo by Cao Cao.He Jin raised this matter in a teasing tone, which can be said to have exposed the biggest scar in Cao Cao's heart!

same root?It's the same root as the eunuch!Could there be a more vicious word than this?

It is tolerable!What can't be tolerated?

Affected by this shame and humiliation, Cao Cao's originally small eyes immediately opened wide, shooting a burst of cold light, and his body was filled with murderous aura. It turned out that he was very drunk last night, and his attendants untied Cao Cao's saber. When he woke up this morning, he didn't even have time to tidy up his clothes.

He Jin, who was looking up to the sky and laughing, couldn't see Cao Cao's action of drawing his sword in anger, but he couldn't hide it from the two concubines who were waiting on the side. The two were surprised, and quickly covered their small cherry mouth with their hands, for fear of making a sound. The sound alarmed He Jin; from Cao Cao's sharp eyes just now, they could tell, "Murderous! Boundless murderous!"

At this time, I can see that Cao Cao's popularity has come. Unlike other dignitaries in the general's mansion who despise their servants and beat and scold them frequently, perhaps because of the same bad background, Cao Cao is very kind to everyone and never puts off The airs of his general, whether it is a colleague, a guard, a groom, a gardener... No matter how low the position is, Cao Cao can treat him equally.

Of course, there is a premise here, that is, these people are all skilled in a skill, or good at strategy, or martial arts, or superb riding skills... As for those who have no skills, Cao Cao also looks down on them!

The traitor loves money, but loves talent even more!

In contrast, He Jin's popularity has fallen to the bottom. Also because of his bad background and extremely low self-esteem in his heart, this "butcher general" is extremely arrogant on weekdays, and he often catches small mistakes and makes mistakes. He beat his subordinates severely, and used whips and blood to prove his nobility and dignity, even the beauties and concubines he served by his side were the same, and they lived in fear all day long.

Therefore, at this moment, they were all willing to help Cao Cao within the scope of their abilities, and they all kept silent.

Cao Cao was originally a very alert person. He caught the air and reacted immediately. Knowing that this was not the time to turn his face, he immediately restrained his anger, put on a calm look, and put his hands on his waist to straighten his body The appearance of the belt was precisely because he came in a hurry and his clothes were messy, so it was reasonable to tidy them up at this time, so He Jin didn't pay attention.

"Retire, the last general!" Knowing that there would be no results if he continued to persuade him, instead he would only humiliate himself, Cao Cao turned around and walked out, his breath was steady and his steps were not chaotic at all, no difference from his usual appearance, as if he had just It was as if nothing had happened, only he knew that at that moment just now, he was really murderous. If he really had a sword on his waist, the room would already be full of 'five steps of blood flow, three dead bodies'. "As for why there are three? Hehe! If He Jin is really beheaded on the spot, those two innocent concubines will definitely not let them continue to live in the world. This is the trick of the villain!"

Going crazy, coming back frustrated, Cao Cao came out of the inner house with a look of frustration on his face. As he walked, he muttered in his mouth: "Pigs! They are all pigs! ... a bunch of stupid people waiting to be slaughtered." Pig!... Just wait and see whose blood will stain the land of Luoyang red!"

Walking out of the gate of the inner house, a pair of peach blossom eyes suddenly appeared in front of Cao Cao. The person in front of him was tall and slender, with a pink face that was extremely tender and delicate, comparable to peach blossoms, which seemed to be broken by blowing bullets. Under the thin eyebrows of willow leaves, a pair of peach blossoms There are spring waves in the eyes, and the eyes are flowing, although it is unintentional, but the charm has leaked out, as if people have countless daydreams; it is the Zimu son who looks like a daughter, but has a vicious heart!

"The humble Zimu, I have met General Cao!" He bowed and saluted with a smile on his face. His graceful posture and elegant temperament made people feel pleasing to the eye. Compared with the arrogant appearance in the Panlong Pavilion, it was completely different. people.

Cao Cao knew a little about this 'Mr. Zimu'. He was originally a friend of Yuan Shu. He was introduced by him and came to the General's Mansion as an ordinary doorman. People are kind, so they have a good reputation in the mansion.However, because he is too beautiful, he is comparable to the peerless and enchanting "Longyang Jun" in the Warring States Period. I heard that there is a manly nobleman in the mansion who wants to accept him as a child prostitute. As for who that nobleman is, don't ask It can be seen; but for some reason, the matter ended up being nothing...

What others say is not good may not be really bad. Similarly, what others say is good may not be really good. The eyes of the public are the easiest to be deceived. For this humble Zimu son, Cao Cao can't see it. It's very clear that the words 'human face, animal heart, vicious and vicious' are the most accurate evaluation of him.

Watching Cao Cao walk away respectfully, Mr. Zimu straightened his waist. Even though there was no one around him at this time, the smile on his face did not change at all, always hiding his true self. Really taught him so much... so much...

If you want revenge, you must be patient, so no matter how the outside world changes these days, he has been hiding in a dark corner, doing nothing, just watching quietly. He saw the failure of the "ten servants", watching When it came to He Jin's domineering, Yuan Shao's pride, Cao Cao's strategy, and finally Xiao Yi's boldness...he saw everything in his eyes and kept it in his heart. Now everyone has already made a move Alright, then next, it's time to see his 'Mr. Zimu' means!

108. Chapter 108

On the west side of the Grand General's Mansion, there is a relatively low-rise building, where all the retainers, guards, and some low-level stewards live in the mansion.

There are also many kinds of diners. The top ones are called "Ke Qing", and they are all extremely capable people. "Keqing" can be roughly divided into three categories. The first category is resourceful counselors. Most of these people come from humble backgrounds. Although they are full of talents and learning, they have no ambitions in official careers. Make suggestions, analyze the current situation, and use this method to realize your political ambitions.

The second category is the generals with martial arts strategy. They are highly skilled in martial arts and have a certain ability to command troops. They are usually responsible for guarding the safety of the mansion. The sword and his own life, to fight for a future.

The last category is eloquent eloquent debaters. This type of people may seem powerless, but they have a skillful mouth that can tell the dead to life, make diplomatic alliances, turn enemies into friends, and attract talents. Useful.

Under the "Keqing", there are two kinds of retainers, one is called "dead warriors". These people have no talents, but all of them are desperadoes. The only thing they need is the steel knife in their hands and their own life; on weekdays, the host family will feed them with good food and drink, and once they need to use them, these people will risk their lives at any time.

The last one left is also the lowest among the retainers, called "sheren". They usually do some unimportant chores and beat the side drums. They are better than nothing. Similarly, their treatment is also the worst. The house is short, the salary is meager, and everyone is inferior to others in the mansion. If you want to get ahead, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky!

The current status of 'Mr. Zimu' is a 'sheren', and he is still an ordinary one. Ever since he presented the 'Pojun' sword to Yuan Shu as a promotion rank, he has been using this His identity lives in the General's Mansion; he acts in a low-key manner, never reveals his abilities, and is kind to others everywhere, coupled with his ability to dance well, although he has not made any credit, he is also a familiar face. He can be seen almost everywhere.

Along the way, he greeted everyone he met kindly. At the gate of the courtyard where his family lived, he played with a few snotty milk babies for a while. , 'Mr. Zimu' returned to his residence, a simple hut with only two houses inside and outside; just at the door, a fat figure appeared in front of his eyes, it was the 'Steward of the Large Intestine' who was loyal to him.

"Young Master is back." Although he is in trouble now, the 'Big Intestine Steward' still abides by the etiquette between master and servant. He believes that with his master's talents, he will definitely have a bright future in the future, "Please eat your son! "

On the extremely simple wooden couch, there is a plate of beans boiled in salt water, a plate of green vegetables without oil, a bowl of rough corn and rice mixed with many shells, and a small pot of turbid bad wine. This is the "Purple Wood" Son' dinner is over.

This kind of food is basically only eaten by ordinary people's homes. When I was in Panlong Pavilion, even the "Steward of the Large Intestine" would never enjoy such inferior food, but now, the "Mr. Zimu" who has been pampered since childhood The food is extremely sweet, it seems that 'Iron Blood' can really change a person.

In fact, with the talent and martial arts of "Mr. Zimu", he can be a high-level guest official, but he did not do so. , can see more clearly!

It's a pity that some people are naturally unable to keep a low profile. If they don't cause trouble, trouble will come to them on their own initiative.

Just halfway through the meal, I suddenly remembered a knock on the door. The 'Big Intestine Steward' hurried over to open the door, and then an extremely obscene face appeared at the door. The person who came was about 40 years old, thin and small, and took a bite. With big yellow teeth, freckles all over the face, thick hair, and a pair of radiant eyes, it looks like a close relative of human beings---a monkey.

"I don't know that Hou Guanshi is coming, but I can't meet him from afar, so I will make amends face to face!" Mr. Zimu also put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and got up to salute. Coincidentally, this person not only looks like a monkey, but also his surname is Hou, and he is a general. A steward next to He Miao, the second master of the mansion, relied on flattery and flattery on weekdays, and went around looking for beauty for his master, so he won He Miao's trust.

"There must be nothing good for a monkey to enter the house." Zimu's master and servant immediately added caution, and at the same time a hidden worry also came to mind.

"Oh! How can such a wonderful person who is as beautiful as a powder carving jade be able to eat such a crude thing? My heart aches when I look at it, Lord Hou!" Pointing at the simple food on the table, Hou Guan showed a heartbroken expression Then a pair of lustful eyes flickered again and again, and said: "How about it, Zimu! You and I will work next to the second master. In the future, as long as you serve the master well, you will naturally be well-clothed and well-fed, and your benefits are indispensable."

Hearing this 'good news', Mr. Zimu's little pink face suddenly turned pale, and he clenched his fists tightly. Because of excessive force, even his joints turned white, which shows the degree of anger in his heart at this time.
