Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Son of Heaven Collapses

"General, there is an angel in the palace outside the door who has come to pass the edict." In the General's Mansion, a family general hurriedly came to report.

He Jin was discussing military power with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others, and he controlled the power of the world's soldiers and horses, but in this Luoyang, with the establishment of the Eighth School of the West Park by the Son of Heaven, He Jin's military power was cut by half.

Don't look at the eight schools in the West Garden, there are only 8,000 people, and Luoyang's original soldiers and horses have nearly 20,000, but these 20,000 people are not all under the command of He Jin.

Dong Zhong is the captain of the guard, and he is not the same as He Jin, but now with the addition of the Eighth School of the West Garden, the balance has suddenly reversed.

Of course, if there are only these two departments, there is no way to compare with He Jin, but the establishment of the Xiyuan New Army, He Jin nominally controls all the soldiers and horses, but in fact, if he really fights against the imperial power, how many people listen to him, but it is not necessarily.

Before, the queen suddenly sent someone from the palace to send news that the Son of Heaven was dying and was afraid that he would die soon, so He Jin should prepare early.

What preparations to make, the person who came didn't say, but He Jin understood that the next step was to help his nephew inherit the throne.

"Edict?" He Jin frowned slightly when he heard this: "The edict of the Son of Heaven? ”

"It should be." The general nodded.

"Angel please enter the side hall!" He Jin hurriedly got up and ordered someone to welcome the angel into the side hall, as for the main hall, if the eunuch minions saw so many powerful figures in the army here, I don't know what hat to put on himself.

"Everyone, I'll take a look." He Jin nodded at everyone, turned around and strode away.

After a while, the palace envoy came in under the leadership of the general and saluted He Jin.

"Brother Pan?" Seeing the person, He Jin was a little surprised, why are you here?

"I was ordered to come and deliver the edict." Pan Yin handed the edict to He Jin, but he was a little entangled in his heart: "Your Majesty invites the general to enter the palace." ”

"Your Majesty passed me into the palace?" When He Jin heard this, his face was happy, and the queen said that His Majesty will die soon, and I will be passed into the palace at this time, does it mean that His Majesty is ready to defend as the new monarch and ask me to assist?

Thinking of this, He Jin smiled and said, "Brother Pan, wait a minute, I'll change my clothes." ”

"This ......" Pan Yin couldn't help but say, "General, wait a minute." ”

"What else?" He Jin looked at Pan Yin and said suspiciously.

"This matter is not too urgent, the general might as well wait a while?" Pan Yin didn't want to betray Jian Shuo, but He Jin was kind to him, and he didn't want He Jin to have an accident, so he was a little entangled.

"Why is that?" He Jin frowned and asked, how could there be a messenger sent by the Son of Heaven to tell people that he was not in a hurry?

"Your Majesty is in poor health, and he may have fallen asleep at this moment." Pan Yin hesitated: "If the general enters the palace at this time, I'm afraid he will have to wait for a long time." ”

He Jin frowned and looked at Pan Yin's stumbling and speechless appearance, suspicious in his heart, and nodded silently: "You wait here for a while, I'll come when I go." ”

"Whoa!" Pan Yin nodded in agreement and respectfully stayed in the side hall, while He Jin took the edict and went straight to the main hall.

"General, but there is an edict from the Son of Heaven?" Yuan Shao saw He Jin in and asked.

"Hmm." He Jin nodded and handed the edict to Yuan Shao to circulate to everyone.

"Your Majesty is recruiting at this time, is it because he wants to trust the general?" Feng Fang smiled.

"At first, I thought it was like that." He Jin shook his head and said: "But Pan Yin's words are quite concealed, I have an old relationship with this person, I'm afraid things are not so simple." ”

"If it's not for Tuogu, then you want to kill the general!" Yuan Shaofu frowned.

"What's the explanation?" He Jin frowned and asked.

"Your Majesty has long had the intention of abolishing the elders and establishing the young, and the captain of the West Garden is also to check and balance the generals, if Your Majesty really ...... If you are powerless to return to the sky, and you want to establish a prince to inherit the imperial business, the biggest obstacle is the general, and you must first get rid of the general to prevent future troubles! Yuan Shao said in a deep voice.

He Jin was covered in cold sweat by Yuan Shao's words, looked at Yuan Shao and said, "Is this true? ”

"Shao is just guessing, but since Pan Yin wants to say something, I'm afraid it's mostly true, the general might as well say that he is sick, and it won't be too late for me to wait for the court tomorrow." Yuan Shao shook his head, he couldn't be sure, but if he looked at it from the perspective of the Son of Heaven, if he wanted Liu Xie to succeed to the throne, then He Jin would have to be eliminated.

Cao Cao sighed silently, in this way, the Han is about to embark on the old road of dictatorship of his relatives again.

"General, there is a military captain Chen Mo outside the door asking to see you!" A general hurried in and saluted He Jin.

"Chen Mo? What is he doing here? He Jin frowned when he heard this, he was quite unhappy with Chen Mo's arrival, after all, he regarded Bao Hong as his confidant, and Chen Mo was tantamount to stepping on Bao Hong's position, and there was also the support of eunuchs behind this, so he was naturally regarded as the opposite by He Jin.

"General, Chen Mo's son is both civil and military, although the previous Bao Hong's incident was Chen Mo's benefit, but he did not participate in it." Yuan Shao smiled and said, "You might as well see it." ”

"Let's look at the original face today, let him in." He Jin snorted coldly and nodded at the general.

"Whoa!"

Not long after the family general left, Chen Mo and Chen Deng entered side by side, and saluted He Jin: "The last general will see the general." ”

"Huaipu Chen Deng, I've seen the general!" Chen Deng also smiled and saluted.

"Oh? Are you Chen Yuanlong? The son of Han Yu? Seeing Chen Deng, He Jin was stunned for a moment, and then asked.

"Exactly." Chen Deng smiled.

"Take a seat!" He Jin pointed to the seat and let Chen Deng take a seat, but he didn't pay much attention to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo was not angry, and sat directly beside Chen Deng, as if he didn't see He Jin's hostility, in this Luoyang, if he wants to get ahead without a background, this thick-skinned is a must.

"When did Yuanlong arrive in Luoyang?" He Jin looked at Chen Deng and smiled, although he hadn't seen it, but Chen Deng also had several celebrities in Xuzhou, how could he not know?

"I'm here today, but it's just inconvenient to show up." Chen Deng pointed at Chen Mo and said with a smile: "The incident of my uncle back then caused my Chen family to be separated, and this time I came here to invite Brother Mo to return to the Chen family." ”

"I see." He Jin nodded when he heard this, and his gaze at Chen Mo softened a lot.

At that time, Chen Qiu was killed for plotting to assassinate the eunuch, and the Chen family also fell because of this, since Chen Mo returned to the Chen family and was recognized by the Chen family, it was naturally opposed to the eunuch.

"I wonder what is the important matter for Captain Chen to come here suddenly?" He Jin sat down again and asked Chen Mo.

"I shouldn't have bothered, but I am an old friend of Cui Geng under the command of the captain of the military academy, and today Cui Geng suddenly sent someone to send a bamboo note, which is related to the general, and I have no choice but to inform him." Chen Mo took out the bamboo note from his arms, and his own servant stepped forward to take the bamboo paper and send it to He Jin.

Hearing that it was news from the palace, He Jin's face was solemn, and he hurriedly took it, now the queen has to rely on the eunuch's people to pass on the news, obviously the queen's situation in the palace is not very good, and now Chen Mo can bring accurate news, which is naturally more credible than Pan Yin.

opened the bamboo paper and looked at the few numbers on the bamboo paper, but He Jin's face changed slightly, and his eyes looked at Chen Mo.

"The general need not be suspicious, as soon as this letter is in my hands, I will rush to inform the general." Chen nodded sincerely.

"Zhu Gong......" He Jin sighed, handed the bamboo note to Yuan Shao for people to circulate, and said bitterly on his face: "I don't have the heart to transgress, so I can't ...... it."

"Why don't the generals cavalry the king and get rid of the eunuchs?" Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at He Jindao.

"No!" He Miao on the side frowned and said, "I, a courtier, how can I wave my troops to storm the imperial city?" How is this different from rebellion? ”

"What He Miao said is not unreasonable." He Jin got up and said in a deep voice: "How can you bully the king with a minister? At the beginning, I was a little reckless, and I asked Pan Yin to go back to his life. ”

At that moment, He entered the side hall, found Pan Yin, and asked Pan Yin to tell him on his behalf that He Jin was worried about His Majesty's health, and he was worried about his illness, and it was difficult to stay.

Pan Yin breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he felt a little guilty, doing this was equivalent to betraying Jian Shuo, and Jian Shuo treated him well, so he went back worriedly all the way, and saw Jian Shuo waiting anxiously outside the hall.

"Where is the butcher?" Jian Shuo saw Pan Yin coming back alone, his face changed, and he quickly stepped forward and grabbed Pan Yin and asked.

"Shuo Gong forgives sins!" Pan Yin took a deep breath and saluted Jian Shuo: "The general said that his health is not safe, and it is inconvenient to visit His Majesty, and after he recovers from his illness, he will ask for sin." ”

"How so!?" Jian Shuo frowned when he heard this: "Can you see that he is really sick?" ”

"This ......," Pan Yin didn't know how to answer.

"Tell me the truth!" Jian Shuo said angrily when he saw this.

"Whoa!" Pan Yin hurriedly bowed: "At that time, the general was entertaining guests, and when he met me, he never felt half unwell!" ”

"The butcher bullies the master, the butcher bullies the master!" Jian Shuo scolded angrily.

"Shuogong, Your Majesty vomited blood!" When Jian Shuo was anxious, he saw a small yellow door hurriedly coming and bowed to Jian Shuo.

Jian Shuo was shocked when he heard this, quickly turned around, and rushed into the hall quickly, just as he saw Liu Hong lying on the side of the couch vomiting blood, and a group of palace people turned pale with fright.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Jian Shuo hurriedly ran to the couch to help Liu Hong calm down.

"Has He Jin ever entered the palace?" Liu Hong's eyes were already a little sloppy, and he looked blankly at the road ahead.

"Your Majesty, wait a minute, then the butcher is already pedaling, and he is coming!" Jian Shuo said in a panic.

Liu Hong leaned against the palace wall with the support of Jian Shuo, his eyes gradually dissipated, and he muttered to himself: "Kill him, kill him for me, assist Xie to ascend the throne, I am a great Han, and I must not fall into the hands of my relatives!" Kill him...... Kill ......"

"Your Majesty?" Jian Shuo looked at Liu Hong who suddenly stopped moving, his eyes looked at Liu Hong in front of him, his face changed slightly, and he hurriedly called a few times, but Liu Hong did not react, and he probed his fingers to Liu Hong's nose with some trembling, his face turned a little whiter, but he still did not give up, and touched Liu Hong's pulse again, Jian Shuo's face suddenly turned pale, and he knelt beside Liu Hong in a distraction, and sobbed in a low voice: "Your Majesty~"
