Fall in love with the technology tree [Three Kingdoms]

The south gate of Luoyang Palace is called Suzaku Gate.A long passage starts from the Taixue District and the sacrificial area on the other side of Luoshui River, passes through the tall and majestic city walls, and leads to the numerous palaces.It was the second month of the lunar calendar, and there was another freezing rain in the sky. It seemed that the coming Qingming Festival would become chilly in spring.

And in this unsuitable weather, more than a dozen high-class men in long suits and hats knelt on the square in front of Suzaku Gate, holding wooden tablets in their hands.The leader was Huangfusong, who was born as a general in Liangzhou.

"Moth thieves are rampant, and the people are in dire straits. It is because the eunuchs' party feathers have caused disasters to the place. I implore your majesty to kill the eunuchs, lift the party, and call the scholars to quell the rebellion!"

Huangfusong lowered his head to the ground and bowed deeply, as if he was bowing down to some supreme god, completely ignoring his coat which was already wet by the drizzle.A dozen or so people were extremely insignificant against the backdrop of the empty square and the tall city walls, and even the imperial guards on duty on the towers looked ruthless.

In Nancheng, 400 meters away, Qin Liu put away his binoculars from the window of a private house, with no expression of joy or anger on his face: "After all, the big man still has loyal ministers."

"Little stable boy" Ji He handed his chief steward a pen and paper, and asked him to record the petitioners outside Suzaku's gate one by one.Then he dug out the cipher book, translated it into ciphertext sealing wax, and then released the carrier pigeon.After all this was done, Ji He, who had been itching for a long time, couldn't hold back: "Guard Qin, why do you say that these petitioners are loyal ministers? Isn't it that the aristocratic family wants to take the opportunity to seize power?"

"If you want the power of a big man, it means that you still want to be a minister of a big man. When you are satisfied with your interests, you will be loyal to a big man, and you have no intention of being self-reliant." Qin Liu turned a brush into the air, but the ink on it didn't drop at all, " Those who are really ambitious, such as Yuan Shao, who has four generations and three lords, would rather be He Jin's disciple than a Hanchen. Or Dong Zhuo, who respects himself in the local area and listens to the announcement rather than the tune."

"Then... what should we do? The yellow turban bandits are coming menacingly outside... Will the emperor really release the party?" Ji He wrinkled his baby face, "The master sent us to Luoyang without any clear instructions."

Qin Liu got up and patted the young man's face: "I don't understand, that's right. You have only been in the spy department for a few years? Look slowly, think slowly." He put on a white robe over his unlined clothes , walking out unsteadily.

Ji He could only trot to keep up: "Where are you going, Manager Qin?"

"Go to a restaurant for lunch." The handsome young man squinted his eyes. Although his body was still walking on the streets of Luoyang in Jiazi year, his thoughts had already flown back to Youzhou a year ago.

"Politics, I'm not very good at it." The master in his memory was wrapped in a rabbit fur scarf, and his eyebrows were slightly frowned. Lift the party's shackles, drink poison to quench thirst. Because—"

Ah Sheng pushed the milk cake on the table towards Qin Liu: "The imperial court has no money."

The national treasury is already clinking poor, and it has been almost saturated by selling officials for many years.If you want to get military funds in a short time, there are only three sources: eunuchs, gentry, and the emperor's private treasury.

Who is the fattest?

Is it the eunuchs of the nouveau riche?Is it His Majesty the upstart emperor?neither.The real fattest ones are the aristocratic families.

"The emperor is in his prime, so he will reach a compromise with the aristocratic family. The imperial court has obtained military funds, and the aristocratic family has recovered political capital. But as long as the rebellion subsides and the third party ban is opened, the initiative is still in the hands of the emperor. Make up for one or two..." Ah Sheng muttered to himself, his eyes drifting away from the beams of the house.

"Then what does the master mean, if the emperor doesn't remove the party shackles, the aristocratic family will turn to support the Taiping Dao to overthrow the big man?" Qin Liu clenched his fists and leaned forward.

"To be honest, I don't know." A Sheng pushed the plate again, "Eat, don't be nervous-eunuchs can't lead the army, if the party is not cleared, it will be difficult to put down the chaos, and if the chaos is not solved, the aristocratic family will also face greater looting Pressure. Whether they will surrender to the eunuch group, merge with the Taiping Dao, or stand on their own, I can't speculate. I only know that a mature emperor who has some sense will definitely be able to make a decision to lift the party."

Qin Liu closed his eyes, his sword eyebrows twitching slightly.Then he let go of his palm and took a piece of milk cake and put it in his mouth. "I see."

"I'll send you to Luoyang." A Sheng watched him eat with one hand on his chin, with a gentle expression like an old mother, "There is only one request, protect your family."

So Qin Liu came to Luoyang and looked at the palaces and palaces in the drizzle of Qingming.His master did not decide whether to push the crumbling Eastern Han Dynasty, and the power to find opportunities and the power to make decisions were added to him at the same time.Such decentralization is not only moving, but also chilling.

Cao Sheng has always been gentle, tolerant, and fraternal.But hidden under this appearance is a deep dislike of this era.She hated the Eastern Han Dynasty, and even buried the loyal ministers and obedient people of the Eastern Han Dynasty in the troubled times, hoping for the demise of the Han Dynasty.So she let go of Qin Liu, a idler full of murderous intentions, at the most vulnerable moment of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Qin Liu never let her down.

The spring rain gradually stopped, and the sun shone through the clouds, bringing moist light to the streets of the imperial city.Huangfusong and others still knelt outside Suzaku's gate, while more and more scholars and officials gathered, everyone had two or three friends, and there were so many stunned Taixue nearby.The sensible ones gave soup, rice, and clothes and medicine, and the passionate ones knelt down together.

After three days like this, the emperor was not expected to come, but the eunuch was attracted.

Zhang Rang, one of the ten permanent servants, led a team of imperial guards to surround the petitioners. His voice was so shrill and high-pitched that it could be heard inside and outside the Suzaku gate: "Is it only our fault that the moth thieves are rampant? Do you believe in evil ways? Is it only the palace people? I don’t know how many people from all over the country colluded with Taipingdao. Among them, your disciples and former officials must be indispensable! If you see moth thieves abandon their official positions and flee, your disciples and former officials must be indispensable! No one is worse than anyone else, Persecuting us when His Majesty is in danger, why are you at ease?!"

Some people from the family's children over there came out and said loudly: "Since your majesty was assassinated, I have never seen Tianyan. It has been half a month now, and people inside and outside the capital are in panic. Let's assassinate your majesty first, hijack the palace and imprison him in the palace. After that, what kind of heart is there?"

Zhang Rang's voice raised another octave: "Your Majesty is recovering from his injuries, so it's inconvenient to see guests."

Huangfusong was still kneeling on the ground. He had been kneeling firmly for three days, four hours a day, as if he was going to work, but now his eyes were red and swollen, and his clothes were disheveled.He bowed in the direction of the palace: "Now the moth thief has attacked the city and destroyed the county, the six prefectures are in chaos, and the military uniforms and food and grass are not complete. Although I know that your majesty is recuperating, but at a critical moment, I ask the palace to make a quick decision."

"General Huangfu is the one who understands. No wonder His Majesty said that you are the one who can lead troops to quell chaos." Zhang Rang first twitched the corners of his mouth at Huangfu Song with a half-smile, then raised his head and shouted, "The most urgent thing is to calm down the moth bandits. At this time, fighting for power, is it because Luoyang’s city wall is too strong? We have already donated half of our family wealth to support the army, and the general is preparing food, so we can send troops to suppress the rebellion in a few days.” He stuffed his hands into his sleeves, triumphantly Looking at the somewhat embarrassed crowd, his beardless face showed two points of pride: "Your Majesty already knows about your troubles. Your Majesty said: If eunuchs know how to donate their family wealth to serve the country, what about you?"

Zhang Rang returned to the palace boldly.The Suzaku gate was closed, leaving the children of the aristocratic family outside with their faces darkened.

"I will be loyal to my country." Huangfu Song stared at the closed palace gate and said, as if swearing.

But the people around him were gloomy: "The emperor is on the eunuch's side again, what should we do?"

"Now that Your Majesty is injured, all foreign affairs are decided by the General." Huangfu Song turned and got into the carriage, "Only the General can persuade Your Majesty."

Not everyone is as sincere as Huangfusong, most of the others are thinking: "If His Majesty doesn't lift the shackles of the party, there will be no way for our family to send food and troops."

Because of the wrangling between the aristocratic family and the imperial court, food, grass, weapons and horses were delayed until the end of April.And the emperor on the sickbed finally agreed to the request for independent conscription from all over the country under the pressure of the intensifying Yellow Turban Uprising.Some descendants of aristocratic families or Confucian scholars who had been oppressed by the eunuch group for a long time were breathless, and with the acquiescence of the court, they brought their own bravery and joined the anti-insurgency team.

At this time, the military situation in each state was in a mess, and the entire capital was filled with a depressed atmosphere.

Outside Luoyang is the Yellow Turban Army that has begun to wreak havoc, and in Luoyang City is the old enemy's re-emergence of the party's struggle, and the lingering sick emperor.In such a situation, the people are of course panicked.People in other places can flee from famine when they are in disaster, but where can the people in Luoyang go?After leaving Luoyang, it might not be as good as Luoyang.

People need to vent when they are under pressure.No, the atmosphere of drinking and having fun in the outer city spread like a plague.Even a small merchant in Dongshi City who had saved his wife's money for ten years threw most of his savings into wine shops in exchange for wine.The world is in chaos, maybe tomorrow they will be executed as Taiping Dao, maybe the day after tomorrow the rioters will break in, maybe the day after tomorrow there will be a coup d'etat.Who knows when it will die?It's better to be drunk today than to have wine today.

It was under such circumstances that Cao Cao drove out of Luoyang with the counter-insurgency troops.Huangfusong and Zhang Huan both belonged to Liangzhou, and the relationship between the two families was good at the beginning. Because of this kind of love, Huangfusong recommended Cao Cao as his deputy.Cao Cao led a group of Habayashi cavalry alone, with a total of more than 5000 people including logistics.Among the [-] troops on the middle road, it is not small in terms of the number of leaders or official positions.

On the day the army set off, Cao Cao saw Qin Liu when he passed by Dongshi Restaurant.He sat on a dirty wooden pier with disheveled hair, raised the wine jar towards the army, and looked like an ordinary alcoholic.A beggar next to him was drunkenly pulling the chicken leg, leaning his head on Qin Liu's lap.

Cao Cao rode his horse and passed by in a short time. He only had time to see Qin Liu nodding his head.

Cao Cao knew that Qin Liu would not go on the same road with him again, and that he had to rely on himself to send troops to the Yellow Turban this time.He turned his head and glanced at the high-spirited tiger and leopard rider. The former teenagers had grown beards.They have followed Cao Cao for many years, and now they have finally become officers. Naturally, they can't wait to make meritorious deeds.Undisguised fierceness and murderous aura floated in the team.Cao Cao smiled and turned his head to stare at the dilapidated mountains and rivers ahead.

He has nothing to fear.

Only the pride of helping the society and saving the country from danger is impacting his heart.

Beggar: ... woo woo woo, because I have no money, the woman I like married a bully in West Market and became a concubine...

Qin Liu: I'm different from you, I don't have a woman I like, I only have gods I like.

Beggar: God...you're kidding...God...how can anyone like it or not...

Qin Liuxiao: Well, he is still a god who has fallen into the mortal world.

Beggar: zzzzzzzzz (already drunk)

Qin Liu continued to laugh, his voice was too soft to be heard: a god who can get confused and play tricks.
