Seeing that the young emperor was finally robbed by Zhang Rang, Li Su couldn't say how he felt in his heart.

Calm down and think about it, this may be the result of the greatest benefit to Li Su's original plan and the least damage to the direction of history.

That's a hot potato, take it in your hand to either surrender, or be the enemy of the world, or throw it to Dong Zhuo according to the original inertia.

However, there is still a trace of unwillingness - this mainly comes from the frustration of Li Su's consistent IQ superiority.

"I've used so many tricks, and I've also used some foresight, and in the end, it has played such a small role."

This kind of mentality is mostly understandable to anyone who is proud of their intelligence.

"I still underestimated the heroes of the world, and also underestimated the improvisation of all forces. I've tried not to treat heroes such as Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Biao, and Dong Zhuo as NPCs, and I've also deduced the possibility that they might follow because of my changes.

But after all, I still missed one or two steps - I imagined He Jin and Shi Changshi, who had not left any strong colors in history, as NPCs, but unfortunately when it came to life and death, mediocre people would also improvise and cause historical disturbances and forcibly drag me into the whirlpool.

Forget it, after this incident, the historical trend is estimated to have been completely shattered, and in the future, we must no longer have preconceived stereotypes, and we must design countermeasures on a case-by-case basis, otherwise we will suffer losses. ”

This is the alarm bell that Li Su sounded in his heart after the rescue operation.

Also, don't be too greedy in the future, take all the benefits-

The reason why he originally had to stay in the capital after He Jin's death was mainly because he hoped that the management of Lantai and Dongguan would be lax and help Cai Yong save some more cultural heritage. In addition, he wanted to wait and see and persuade Wu Kuang, who might be squeezed in the future, to pull away some of the elite of Wu Kuang's northern army and take advantage of the chaos to take some savings from the arsenal of the Beijing Division, so as to weaken Dong Zhuo's military strength after occupying the Beijing Division.

If you were willing to give up these two parts of the income in the first place, you wouldn't have these things.

Fortunately, there is no danger.

After Li Su took a breath, the queen mothers, princes, and princesses almost came back to their senses, and Li Su stepped forward and saluted: "The ministers are incompetent and have failed to rescue Your Majesty together." But please also ask the Queen Mother to relax for the time being, and take care of major events. ”

That's what Lu Zhi meant.

Empress Dowager He looked dazed: "What do you want the palace to do in this big mess?" You should continue to find a way to save the emperor first! ”

Li Su: "Because of this, the Queen Mother is needed to calm people's hearts at the moment - please follow me to accept the worship of the rebels last night, and explain the rebellion of the Ten Standing Servants, so that the name of the thief can be justified, and the indiscriminate killing of innocents can also be prevented." ”

Empress Dowager He still didn't understand: "What's the use of this? ”

Li Su hurriedly said: "Let's put it this way, so far, there is still no explicit order from the imperial court to attack the palace and the generals of the rebellion, and the queen mother does not come forward, proving that the general was not summoned by the queen mother in person last night, but summoned by the ten permanent servants, so how can the generals who attack the palace feel at ease?" Do the soldiers worry that their generals are acting without life?

In addition, as far as I know, last night, Yuan Shao, the lieutenant of the Chinese Military Academy, was originally ordered to guard the general, but because the general's murder made him extremely frightened and afraid of bearing the responsibility for the crime of poor guarding, he attacked the palace and killed innocents indiscriminately.

Whether it was the ten permanent servants and other people who deserved their crimes, or the innocent eunuchs who worked hard, they were all killed in an attempt to reduce their guilt. If you can ask the Queen Mother to understand her panic in public and limit the scope of her killing, you can also save the innocent. ”

Li Su's words were very beautiful: Should the eunuch faction be destroyed? Of course it should, but it doesn't mean that you have to kill all the eunuchs, as long as you kill those who hold power? There is no need to kill those who do coolies.

You kill all the eunuchs, unless you don't recruit new ones in your harem in the future, and you don't need eunuchs to use only palace maids, or allow men! Otherwise, don't you hurt the heavens, just kill a batch and recruit a batch, and damage the yin virtue!

After Lu Zhi heard this, he couldn't help but be in good spirits, and secretly praised Li Suzhen for being loyal, benevolent, and thoughtful, and much better than Yuan Shao.

Of course, Lu Zhi didn't think of this problem, mainly because he didn't notice Yuan Shao's unpopular atrocities of "killing all those who don't have a beard when they enter the palace", and he didn't realize the political significance of letting Empress Dowager He immediately comfort Yuan Shao.

Lu Zhi: "The minister seconded the proposal!" Li Zhonglang is thoughtful, it is really the dry city of the country, please let the Queen Mother follow his proposal! ”

The Queen Mother also figured it out, so she took several other imperial relatives, under the protection of Lu Zhi and Zhao Yun's 500 cavalry, got on the horse and galloped around the small half circle of the palace wall, hurriedly returned to the inner palace, and found Yuan Shao, Wu Kuang, Yuan Shu and others.

Even Chen Liuwang, who was only nine years old on the side, felt that this Li Zhonglang was really a loyal, righteous and benevolent person, and he was still as careful as a hair at such a time of national crisis, and refused to kill innocent people close to the emperor indiscriminately.

"The Queen Mother is here! The Queen Mother has been rescued! All armies should stop killing innocents indiscriminately! Eunuchs only kill those who have ministry, and innocent servants such as miscellaneous servants do not need to be killed! All armies quickly listen to the Queen Mother's decree! ”

Li Su and Lu Zhi let their soldiers shout loudly, and it took a long time to finally persuade Yuan Shao and their people, and Empress Dowager He also personally shouted a few words to let the people of Wende Hall open the door, and the last time Nangong entered the main hall could be regarded as a bloodless door.

Empress Dowager He just urgently selected a few eunuchs who had a ministry and usually colluded with the ten permanent servants to kill them, and all the other minor eunuchs were pardoned. He also made it clear that after the recovery of the North Palace in the future, the eunuchs in the North Palace will do the same: only kill the ten permanent servants and the eunuchs who have management positions under them.

In this way, only the first five eunuchs in the six entrances of the South Palace were really all killed, and the sixth and northern palaces could survive more than half, and the Empress Dowager He would not have to recruit people in the future.

Yuan Shao still looked angry and didn't get angry, Cao Cao persuaded him again and again to dissipate his anger, and secretly praised in his heart: "This Li Boya actually conspired with me." I said at the beginning that it is enough to punish the evil and pay a prison official, if you want to slaughter everything, it will definitely be leaked, and this matter will be defeated!

It's a pity that neither Ben Chu nor the general listened to me, and I couldn't stop it. This Li Boya not only sees something slightly the same as me, but also thinks of a remedy when he is in a hurry, killing fewer innocents and stabilizing the court, I might as well too! ”

Moreover, Cao Cao deserved to be the second highest IQ among all the people in the palace at this moment, except for Li Su, with his gloomy carefulness, he quickly thought of another terrifying possibility:

"Not good! Although today's ten permanent servants can be punished, but the queen mother's side will be promoted from the young and unministered eunuchs in the future, Huangmen, Chang Servant, Changqiu, these people who have been promoted, even if they don't understand foreign affairs for a while, have no knowledge and strategy, but after ten or eight years, won't they have to grow up?

When the time comes, this newly grown group of powerful eunuchs will definitely regard them as enemies because they wanted to kill them all back then. And for Li Su, who saved their lives from the original knife, he will definitely be regarded as a benefactor of recreation. I'm afraid that a few years later, the Queen Mother and the young master will only hear words praising Li Su's merits in the inner court, and no one will say anything bad about Li Su on the left and right!

This plan is so vicious, if Li Su is allowed to stay in the court as an official, with this network and the reputation of the two dynasties inside and outside, I am afraid that he will be ranked as the third prince before the age of thirty! ”

The conscience of heaven and earth, at this point, Cao Cao's thinking reaction is actually faster than Li Sudu, Li Su didn't expect this layer at all, and he didn't care about the gratitude of a group of pickled people. In terms of the subdivision of the political sensitivity of Jingguan, Cao Cao is still stronger than Li Su.

Cao Cao was still fighting wits and courage with the air there, and Empress Dowager He had already announced in public some other conclusions to exonerate the masses:

"Don't be surprised, the palace hereby affirms three things in public: First, the generals who rebelled against the rebellion have no merit, and they don't have to blame themselves for failing to protect the general. Last night, the general was summoned, and he was proficient in the edict of the ten permanent servants, and the palace did not summon him, let alone murder his brother, so this matter can no longer be innocent.

Second, Li Su, the general of Zhonglang, entered the palace before the general last night, and this matter was indeed summoned by the palace to consol and consol, and it has nothing to do with the recruitment of the general by the ten permanent servants. The general was summoned by the Ten Standing Servants to another place to plot and kill, Li Su should have never seen it, and he finally broke through the battle with Zhao Duwei, purely for righteous indignation.

Third, before the palace reads out this will, manslaughter in chaos will not be investigated, but after the decree is issued, there will be indiscriminate killers punished! ”

After finishing speaking, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Wu Kuang, and Yuan Shu actually felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially Yuan Shao, he completely washed away the possibility of the time bomb of "ineffective protection of He Jin", and was terrified and grateful for a while.

"Thank you Queen Mother for your mercy and mercy! I can't thank you enough! Yuan Shao was so moved that he bowed down in tears.

Cao Cao was sour again: This Li Boya...... obviously took advantage of Ben Chu, and in the future, Ben Chu was afraid that he would be squeezed out by the surviving eunuchs and would not be able to be a Beijing official, but he still had the ability to let Ben Chu thank him! And you must know that I didn't have much friendship with him before! What a manipulation of people's hearts!

After Empress Dowager He finished speaking, she couldn't help but look at Li Su with her eyes a few times, and wanted to ask him, "I didn't say these lines wrong."

How dare Li Su look at the Queen Mother in public, he can only nod his head slightly.

There is no way, who made him the most professional in "letting the other party lift his guard". That's the actual combat experience of convincing outlaws to give up resistance hundreds of times in my previous life!

The final result is that except for Dong Zhuo, everyone has to remember him well.

Empress Dowager He saw that everyone had been appeased, and finally said: "Then you can discuss on your own and rescue the emperor as soon as possible, the palace is a little frightened, go back and rest first." ”

……

In the follow-up link of saving the emperor, because there were too many favors before, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and Wu Kuang had to respect Li Su's opinion and ask him and Lu Zhi how to command.

But Li Su was exhausted, and the key thing was that he didn't want to prevent the young emperor from falling into the hands of Dong Zhuo, so he shirked his lack of energy, and he was a foreign general, so it was inconvenient to go to the front line to fight for merit, but he just said that "if the ten permanent servants are defeated, they may continue to flee north and escape directly from the city", so that everyone can leave some troops and consider besieging or setting up an ambush at the north gate.

Cao Cao also thought deeply when he heard it, and was the first to second.

In the morning of the same day, while continuing to attack the North Palace, they divided their troops out of the city to surround the exit of the imperial city from various gates.

However, it was precisely because of their fanfare that Dong Zhuojun, who had arrived at the west gate of Luoyang in the morning and was not allowed to enter, finally found his peers outside the north gate after a small half circle around the city.

Dong Zhuo's people immediately took money to open the way, and the senior generals of the Beijing army refused to publicize their ugliness, and they could always buy a few middle-level officers who were willing to speak. Therefore, Dong Zhuo also quickly knew that the soldiers and horses who set up ambushes and besieged at the gates north of the city were to prevent the Ten Constants from escaping north of the city after they could not guard the North Palace.

In this case, Dong Zhuo of course did not hesitate to join them and "shoulder to shoulder" together.

How can you miss this opportunity to do it for nothing? Even if it's an opportunity to share the work with others.

After another day of attack, when it lasted until the night of August 24, Zhang Rang and the others finally couldn't hold it anymore, knowing that there were soldiers and horses outside the north gate, but they also wanted to take advantage of the night not to light torches, in case they could slip out of the gap.

And they didn't walk through the city gate in a big way, but dug a hole in the city wall on the north side of the North Palace and drilled it out - they were also betting that those soldiers and horses only focused on guarding the city gate, and ignored the area without the city gate, so they tried to survive.

It's a pity that this gamble was obviously lost, because there were too many defenders in the north of the Imperial City, especially the cunning Dong Zhuo, whose troops were not very dense during the day, but after nightfall, the density was encrypted to prevent the poor vision from being stolen.

Zhang Rang and his entourage were caught as soon as they left the city without walking 500 meters, Zhang Rang did not dare to murder the emperor, and was killed by the soldiers in the army, four of the ten permanent servants were killed in Nangong last night, and the remaining five and some other eunuchs who were lower than the permanent servants all died in the army in the north of the city.

The young emperor Liu Bian was just taken hostage and traveled less than five miles out of the palace, and was sent back again.

"The ministers are ordered to save the driver! Fortunately, Your Majesty is safe! Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Wu Kuang all flocked up to show that they were not without contribution, and the reason why they bumped into Zhang Rang in Dong Zhuo's defense section was just a matter of luck in the division of labor.

This time, the young emperor had no younger brother by his side to help him answer the courtiers' questions, so he could only return to the palace without saying a word.

Dong Zhuo didn't hear any thanks or rewards for his rescue work, and he was also a little depressed when he saved a stuffy gourd.

But when he escorted the emperor back to the city with the rest of the army, Dong Zhuo heard more inside information.

"Have you heard? In fact, Beigong didn't have to suffer from the war again, and there was no need to kill so many people and toss the army to mobilize. Early yesterday morning, Lu Shangshu originally had a strange plan to save all the emperors and queens in the north and south palaces, which was very safe.

It's a pity that His Majesty was too cowardly to jump, so that the Queen Mother and King Chen Liuwang were rescued, even Concubine Tang and the princess were saved, but His Majesty was held hostage by the Ten Standing Servants for so long. If this is really the time of war, the thieves kidnapped such a cowardly Majesty, and asked him to order the imperial army to surrender, I don't know if he will really admit it - our Xiliang warriors have never heard of the commander being captured will admit and persuade the whole army to surrender. ”

"Didn't you say that King Chen Liuwang is only nine years old, and His Majesty is fourteen years old, why is he so young and timid, and he doesn't dare to do things that his nine-year-old brother dares to do. But this kind of thing is a big rebellion, let's talk about it in private, don't spread it! Be careful! ”

These rumors in the army reached Dong Zhuo's ears, and Dong Zhuo suddenly felt that the reason was quite sufficient - how could a coward be the emperor in troubled times?

However, this time his rescue credit is not big enough, so he will share it equally with Lu Zhi and Yuan Shao, and the heart of abolishing the establishment is still pressed for a few days first, and he must always warp off a few other heroes, or transfer them out of the Beijing Division, so that he can start......
