Chapter 328: He Jin is dead
Cai Yao is missing, and she has been missing for a month.
This made Liu Zheng very anxious, when he summoned the martial artists under his command to ask about Cai Yao's situation, after all, the last time they saw Cai Yao was Gan Ning and Xu Huang.
However, Gan Ning has been by Liu Zheng's side for a month and went to Xuzhou together, and Gan Ning has never known much, but Liu Zheng still let them come over.
Soon, all the generals under Liu Zheng's command arrived, and even Huang Zhong came over, Liu Zheng told them about Cai Yao's disappearance, and they didn't take it seriously at first, but when they saw Liu Zheng's anxious appearance, they became nervous.
"Lord, I only thought when you mentioned it, I haven't seen Miss Cai Yao for a long time."
Xu Huang took the initiative to speak, he had been busy with Jiaozhou's armaments and the training of the new army recently, but he really hadn't seen Cai Yao much.
Liu Zheng's eyes looked at Xu Huang expectantly, but after saying the words that disappointed him from Xu Huang's mouth, he quickly left Xu Huang's body and turned to look at the others.
"I haven't seen Miss Cai Yao for a long time."
"Yes, the last time I saw her, it was during the Chinese New Year, when the Lord invited everyone to drink here."
"Speaking of which, I didn't see Miss Cai Yao last time I drank."
Everyone said a word, but they all looked like they had never seen Cai Yao, which made Liu Zheng even more anxious.
It's hard for a living person to disappear like this.
Just when everyone didn't say that they had seen Cai Yao, Xu Yu on the side saw Liu Zheng's expression getting more and more ugly, and immediately stood up.
"Lord, don't worry, a living person can't disappear out of thin air, if he disappears, then there is only one possibility."
"What is possible?"
Liu Zheng also had no idea at this time, he was concerned about it, and when he saw Xu You speak, he hurriedly asked Xu You.
"That's Miss Cai Yao, she took the initiative to avoid it, she should have left here by herself."
When Liu Zheng heard Xu You's words, his face suddenly changed.
However, this possibility is not impossible, Liu Zheng has always wondered if Cai Yao was taken away, but he really didn't expect Cai Yao to take the initiative to leave.
After all, Cai Yao herself is in a more embarrassing situation on Liu Zheng's side, firstly, she is not Liu Zheng's person, and secondly, Liu Zheng never restricts her freedom, she often goes to the mountains and rivers by herself, and sometimes leaves, and it will not attract everyone's attention, so she will disappear for a month, and everyone will not notice her.
When Xu Yu said this, Liu Zheng immediately figured it out, maybe this time, Cai Yao also left by herself.
After all, something indescribable happened with Liu Zheng that night, and the pressure in her heart was also very great, maybe she didn't know how to face Liu Zheng.
Thinking of this, Liu Zheng's face looked a little better.
If Cai Yao hadn't been kidnapped, but just left by herself and temporarily separated from him for a while, this result would still be acceptable to Liu Zheng.
However, her whereabouts still worried Liu Zheng, and Liu Zheng ordered everyone to pay close attention to Cai Yao's dynamics, and then let everyone disperse.
However, everyone left, but Xu Yu did not leave.
"Mr. Xu You, why don't you leave?"
"My lord, I have something I want to tell you."
"What?"
"Something about the imperial court."
"The Imperial Court? What's going on in the imperial court? ”
"This time, I went to Xuzhou with my lord, and I inadvertently found out some news."
Xu You immediately told Liu Zheng what he heard in Xuzhou.
It turned out that after the general He Jin recently took control of the power in the court, he had begun to faintly begin to rectify those who opposed it.
After all, he single-handedly forcibly put Emperor Liu Wei of the Han Dynasty back on the throne, which is not in line with the ancestral system, many people who had a good impression of the little emperor Liu Xie before, plus those who themselves had a grudge against the general He Jin, have joined forces and plan to deal with the Han Emperor.
Among them, including Zhang Rang, the ten permanent servants who have now lost power.
Zhang Rang and some other ten permanent servants were originally eunuchs of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, but after the little emperor ascended the throne, these old eunuchs had no place to use, and could only retreat into the background, and the general He Jin asked them to hand over the money they had bought and sold officials before.
As a last resort, Zhang Rang and others could only hand it over, so that Zhang Rang and others hated He Jin even more, so Zhang Rang and others secretly carried out an assassination in the imperial city.
They wanted to kill He Jin directly, and then promote He Miao, who was closer to Zhang and let them, take the position.
This plan was quickly agreed by a group of people who had enemies with He Jin, and finally, after planning for more than a month, Zhang Rang and a group of ten permanent servants found an opportunity.
During the Chinese New Year, Zhang Rang used Queen He's dictation to trick He Jin into the palace, and then what happened in history was almost the same.
He Jin regarded himself as powerful in the court now, and he didn't expect that Zhang Rang and these eunuchs would want to harm him, so he had no fear and went over directly.
As a result, he was shot dead by Zhang Rang and other eunuchs on the spot.
As soon as He Jin died, Zhang Rang and the others did not make a noise, but instead ordered He Miao to attack, and Zhang Rang and He Miao completely got out of their plans.
When He Miao first started, he was still a little surprised, and even wanted to avenge his eldest brother and kill Zhang Rang and others.
But when Zhang Rang said his plan to let He Miao replace He Jin and become the new general, He Miao was moved.
He Miao was already at odds with He Jin, although they were brothers, but they were not brothers of the same mother, there was a gap between brothers, and now although he was a little sad because of He Jin's death, he was not so sad when he was moved by Zhang Rang and others to become a new general.
He quickly agreed to cooperate with Zhang Rang and others, and then successfully accepted some of He Jin's soldiers and horses.
He Miao himself is a general of the chariot cavalry, and he also has some soldiers and horses, and after taking people to accept He Jin's manpower, some of He Jin's people took refuge in He Miao, but there are still many people who were originally loyal to He Jin, and they don't want to take refuge in He Miao at all, and they are angry that He Miao and Zhang Rang are in the same stream and plot to kill He Jin.
and He Miao launched a fierce battle.
The battle lasted for three days, and He Miao united a group of men and horses who resisted He Jin, and soon suppressed the men and horses before He Jin, and successfully stole the fruits of He Jin's victory in his own hands.
Although the little emperor Liu Wei was frightened about this matter, he had no right to speak after all, and He Jin was his uncle, and He Miao was also his uncle, he was just a puppet used by the He brothers to take power.
