Chapter Seventy-Nine: Luoyang Night
After sending off the angel, everyone did not leave, He Jin knelt in his place, looking serious, but Chen Mo understood the problem of some people's expressions, as if it was the knowledge brought by bewitchment, He Jin's current demeanor was clearly distracted.
Yuan Shu left for a while, came back again, and then said something to He Jin, He Jin nodded, and then ...... Keep waiting.
What are you waiting for?
Naturally, he was waiting for the news of the death of the Son of Heaven, Chen Mo was not sure where He Jin's source was, the palace should be heavily guarded now, and it was difficult to pass on the news, but it was not the only way, the Imperial Doctor ordered that there was the most contact with the Son of Heaven during this time, as long as he asked over there, he could naturally guess something.
Everyone didn't leave, or He Jin called everyone today, and he had other thoughts in it.
The sky gradually darkened, and the servants in the general's palace lit oil lamps.
"Brother Meng De, since we have arrived here, no matter what happens tomorrow, there is no way back for me." The carving knife turned between his fingers like a butterfly piercing flowers, Chen Mo glanced at Cao Cao, whose face was sinking like water, and chuckled.
Cao Cao glanced at Chen Mo who was playing with flowers in Chen Mo's hand, and was a little envious of his skill, which felt very cool, especially with Chen Mo's lazy appearance at the moment, don't say women, men feel very attractive when they see it, of course, they don't have disgusting thoughts, just simple appreciation, I hope I can do it too.
"Brother Xian, sitting here now, how do you feel?" Cao Cao sighed and asked with a smile.
In fact, there is no winner tonight, and it is the big man who loses in the end.
"Leg numbness." Chen Mo quietly pressed the soles of his feet with the hilt of the knife, he was about to lose consciousness, when there was no one on weekdays, he wanted to sit for a long time, but now in such a place, he was the youngest, he couldn't be so unruly.
"Me too." Cao Cao quietly hammered his leg and chuckled, "It seems that you have already returned to the Chen family?" β
"Not really, take what you need." Chen Mo nodded, and then shook his head again, the identity of the Chen family, he must have it, this must be there, otherwise even if he barely squeezes into this circle today, it will still be difficult to leave in the future.
He Jin's attitude is actually not important, the important thing is that these people here, He Jin is actually just a gun in the hands of the scholars, and the scholars are not He Jin's faΓ§ade? They all take what they need, and this world is so pure.
"How do you know that everyone is here today?" Cao Cao said curiously.
"I didn't know, I just wanted to show goodwill, who knows......" I looked at Yuan Shao, who was chatting well with He Hao in the distance, "The eighth lieutenant of Xiyuan, except for me and Jian Shuo, has arrived, if I don't come, will I be regarded as a eunuch?" β
"Not really." Cao Cao shook his head, no matter what he said, Chen Mo should also be counted here, just by virtue of his relationship with himself, with Yuan Shao, and with Lu Zhi's relationship, at most he is a neutral, Cao Cao didn't expect Chen Mo to come over directly.
"It seems that Your Majesty is today?" Although Chen Mo said it easily, his heart was still a little heavy.
"Probably, I only found out this morning." Cao Cao shook his head and smiled, "Who do you say will win?" β
"If I can't win here, why am I here?" Chen Mo smiled and took advantage of no one to pay attention, grabbed a piece of pastry from the table and threw it into his mouth, "But for Dahan, today's battle is a loss after all." β
"What if the eunuch wins?"
"What's worse, the world is in chaos, they don't have the qualifications." Chen Mo shook his head, "Your Majesty is leaving at this time, it's not right." β
"Maybe it's providence." Cao Cao sighed, what will Luoyang be like after today, Cao Cao didn't dare to think about it.
Hurried footsteps sounded outside the door, and everyone unconsciously stopped talking to each other and looked at the passer.
It was a small yellow door, came to the hall, and bowed to He Jin, "General, Your Majesty has died." β
"Where's the palace?" He Jin stood up and asked.
"It's still blocked, and the slave crawls out of the dog's hole." Xiao Huangmen said in a low voice.
"General, if the eunuch temple does not mourn and takes the opportunity to support the prince of Xie, it will be too late!" Yuan Shao saluted He Jin.
"The generals will obey!" He Jin almost laughed, but this time was obviously not the time, and he took advantage of this sentence to vent his laughter, which was particularly harsh and weird.
Everyone quickly got up and bowed to He Jin.
"Each of them leads his troops and follows me to the palace!" He Jin said loudly.
"Whoa!" Everyone agreed and strode out, Feng Fang tripped when he went out, he didn't get up for a long time, he knelt down for a day, and everyone's legs were numb.
Chen Mo stretched out his hand to help him up, said goodbye to Cao Cao, and left quickly with Chen Deng.
"I won't go for my brother." As Chen Deng walked, he said to Chen Mo, "You bring Dian Wei, this person is quite brave, if there is really a war, he can protect you." β
Although Chen Mo felt that his martial arts were already good, he was still as good as a stream, went around his home, brought Dian Wei with him, and just took this opportunity to give him a military registration.
On the other side, Beigong, Liu Hong's death, naturally difficult to hide, soon heard the news of Empress Dong and Empress He brought Liu Xie and Liu Wei over, in the Anfu Palace, crying everywhere, listening to it at night, like a ghost.
Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Guo Sheng and others came to Anfu Hall with small steps, looking at the corpse of the Son of Heaven, Zhang Rang's face was cloudy, and Liu Hong's death represented that the glorious era of the Ten Standing Servants had passed.
"Let the Gong!" Jian Shuo found Zhang Rang and took out the edict of the Son of Heaven to Zhang Rang, "Before Your Majesty died, there was an edict ordering us to assist the prince to ascend the throne. β
Zhang Rang looked at the edict, thought in his heart for a while, and then said, "Inform Dong Chong immediately, I can't wait for this matter to be done, and Dong Chong needs to do it, I will go to Dong Chong to discuss." β
"Hmm!" Jian Shuo also felt that this matter, they alone could not do it, no matter whether this edict was true or not, the ministers probably would not accept it, if they could kill He Jin today, control the military power of Luoyang, and then have the edict of the Son of Heaven, it may be possible, but now He Jin has failed to win the plan, at this moment it is impossible for them to force Liu Xie to take the throne, Dong Chong is also a figure in Jiuqing no matter what, he is also a figure in Jiuqing, with him to come forward, and then take out the edict of the Son of Heaven, it is more convincing.
"Report~" Just when Jian Shuo was about to send someone to find He Jin, he saw Cui Geng rushing over, and went straight to Jian Shuo and said respectfully, "Shuo Gong, the big thing is not good, the general led the five schools of the Northern Army to surround the North Palace." β
"What!?" Jian Shuo and Zhang Rang were stunned for a moment, and then became furious.
Zhang Rang was quite calm, and hurriedly grabbed Jian Shuo and said, "Don't act rashly at this time, and go and see what the butcher means?" β
Besieging the palace is a big crime, and He Jin shouldn't have the guts.
Jian Shuo gritted his teeth and nodded, and came to the palace wall with Zhang Rang, but saw that outside the palace wall, rows of soldiers of the five colonels of the Northern Army were Sen Ran Suli, swords and guns were raised, and the murderous aura was full of sky.
Zhang Rang said in a deep voice, "General, the North Palace is His Majesty's resting place, and the General besieged the North Palace late at night, doesn't he want to kill the king?" β
He Jin said angrily, "He Mou's loyalty to His Majesty can be learned from heaven and earth, how dare he have such an arrogant act?" However, after listening to the imperial doctor's order, His Majesty has passed away, this is a matter related to the society, but you hide it and do not report it, and do not mourn it secretly, what is the reason, and what is the intention? β
Zhao Zhong on the side shook his head and said, "The general's words are serious, His Majesty has died, we have just known, and there is no intention of deception, I wanted to inform the hundred officials tomorrow morning, who knows that the general has got the news, this matter is not handled properly by us, I hope the general will forgive the guilt, and quickly retreat the soldiers and horses." β
"Retirement?" He Jin pointed to Jian Shuo and said, "Although the soldiers and horses in the West Garden are set up by His Majesty, they should also follow the etiquette and law, and defend the palace, which is the matter of the guards, when will it be the turn of the soldiers and horses in the West Garden?" β
Zhang Rang turned his head and stared at Zhao Zhong, then looked at Jian Shuo and said, "The butcher came today, he has already prepared, you and lead the army back to the West Garden, remember to control the soldiers and horses in the West Garden, this is the key to our game with the butcher, and we must not fall into the hands of the enemy." β
"Then Your Majesty's edict ......" Jian Shuo was a little anxious.
"At this time, the butcher has already seized the opportunity, if the edict is revealed at this time, you and I will be in a different place, and hide this edict for the opportunity." Zhang Rang shook his head, He Jin suddenly moved the crowd to come, obviously to support Liu Wei, at this time to sing against He Jin, that is, it is a long life, so he can only temporarily hibernate and then choose the opportunity.
Although Jian Shuo was unwilling, at this time, as soon as Liu Hong died, he had no backbone, so he could only listen to Zhang Rang, and immediately withdrew from the West Gate with his headquarters and retreated to Ping Optimistic.
He Jin naturally would not let Dong Zhong send someone to take over the palace, but unceremoniously ordered Chen Mo, Feng Fang, Zhao Rong and Xia Mu to guard all parts of the South Palace.
At this time, no one will be stupid enough to be reasonable, after Zhang Rang will be Jian Shuo away, he quickly went to He Hou to show his loyalty, at this time can keep them, only He Hou, and when He Hou was able to become the queen, the ten permanent servants did make a lot of efforts, at this time Zhang Rang and others complained, but also a little soft-hearted, and immediately agreed to protect everyone.
In the absence of an edict, Liu Wei, as the eldest son, is naturally the best candidate to inherit the imperial business.
Yuan Shao saw that after He entered the palace and established the throne of Emperor Liu Wei, he did not take any further action, frowned and came to He Jin's side and said, "General, this is the opportunity to eliminate the eunuchs, why do you not move?" β
He Jin waved his hand and said with a smile: "The bones of the first emperor are not cold, how can we kill in vain in the palace?" It is disrespectful to lead troops to besiege the palace today, and it is impossible to repeat the incident. β
Yuan Shao persuaded a few more words, He Jin obviously had no further plans, and Yuan Shao was a little depressed.
"Why don't you do it?" Yuan Shu came over to find Yuan Shao, frowned and asked.
"The general has no intention of killing the eunuch, I am busy today, but I am only busy for him." Yuan Shao glanced in He Jin's direction and snorted coldly.
"Why don't you just do it?" Yuan Shu felt that they were being tricked by He Jin, and he was a little angry.
"Thou shalt not be reckless." Yuan Shao shook his head, "Look for another opportunity, the first emperor has gone, and the eunuch is difficult to become a climate, but the butcher seems to have other thoughts." β
"Him?" Yuan Shu said with some disdain.
"Let's go, that's the end of the day." Yuan Shao shook his head and didn't explain much, the first emperor has gone, the new emperor has ascended the throne, and in the next period of time, Luoyang will be busy.
But Yuan Shu was obviously angry about this, there were so many of them, and in the end, they were used by a butcher!
It's just that the matter has come to this point, He Jin now holds most of the military power in Luoyang, and it is meaningless for him to oppose it, so he can only endure this breath.
