Verse 163: The Lord of Jizhou
"Take Jizhou?" Guan Yan was surprised and hurriedly asked, "How to take it?" ”
Fu Zhu smiled slightly, and said confidently: "In the letter of the lord, don't say that the enemy army was defeated in a light battle, but it is necessary to exaggerate the enemy's excellent combat strength and strength. Wang Fen was beheaded by the lord with a plan, and tens of thousands of thieves fled to Jizhou. Please send a large army to encircle and suppress it! ”
"So, what does it have to do with Jizhou?"
Fu Zhi took a step forward and arched his hand and said: "My lord, since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the world has been uncertain, and there have been several rebellions. First, Liaodong Zhang Ju was called the emperor, and then Han Sui was the chaotic Liangzhou. The officers and troops of the Han Dynasty in Luoyang have been completely damaged. A few days ago, another kingdom in the northwest besieged Chencang, and the imperial court was already more than capable of strength, so it was mainly based on Dong Zhuo, the assassin of Liangzhou, to exterminate the kingdom. If there is smoke again in Jizhou, I am afraid that the imperial court will not have the strength to fight again. Your Majesty will definitely order the lord to garrison Jizhou and exterminate Wang Fen's remnants! ”
Guan Yan nodded: "The public is justified in this!" Zhicai, what do you think? ”
Xi Zhicai also chimed in: "The plan of the prince and the gentleman is very good, the lord can follow the plan!" ”
Although he was a scholar, he did not have the Confucian ideas of the traditional culture of the Central Plains.
He thought that this drama should be picky and find a way to squeeze himself, and the frustration was ready. But Xi Zhicai sincerely agreed with his idea and strongly supported Guan Yan to act according to this plan.
It seems that he really spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and he smiled embarrassedly at Xi Zhicai, and Xi Zhicai also returned a salute to show politeness.
Guan Yan didn't notice the movements of the two in the slightest, but thought about what he just said alone.
After a long time, Guan Yan struck each other with both hands: "That's it, Gonghe, this matter will be handed over to you!" ”
Guan Yan turned around and looked at the rising sun in the east, and said in a loud voice: "Advanced City!" ”
Five days later, in the Deyang Hall of the Luoyang Palace.
Xiao Huangmen dragged a letter with both hands, and trotted into the Deyang Hall with a long voice: "Jizhou Urgent News~~~"
Emperor Han Ling's face was straight: "Present it!" ”
Zhao Zhong on one side took the letter and presented it to Emperor Ling of Han.
As soon as Emperor Han Ling read the first few sentences, he grabbed the pen stand in front of him and slammed it on the ground: "Dog thief Wang Fen, he actually tried to rebel and set up a new emperor!" Where is Liu Qi? ”
Liu Yu is Hefei Hou, Guan Yan sent someone to deliver urgent mail, and also sent Hefei Hou to Luoyang.
I saw two guards escorting the embarrassed Hefei Hou Liu Yu into the Deyang Palace.
"Liu Qi!" Emperor Han Ling slapped the table hard, stood up, and pointed at Liu Qi, who was kneeling on the ground trembling and trembling, and scolded angrily: "Since you are a member of the royal family, you don't plan for the clan, not for the community, not for the world!" actually teamed up with Wang Fen to rebel! If I don't kill you, I really can't get rid of this anger! Come on, drag it out and cut it down! ”
"The emperor is angry!" When the ministers heard this, they hurriedly knelt down to intercede for Liu Qi in Hefei.
It's not that the ministers think that Liu Yu's crimes are not to death, but that over the ages, all the royal family members who rebelled and were captured alive were imprisoned by the emperor or demoted to concubines, but none were killed.
This was done to show that the emperor was open-minded and could not bear to kill his brothers.
The ministers also followed the ancient rites and persuaded the emperor to give up this inappropriate idea.
But Emperor Han Ling was not a conscientious and good emperor, so he naturally would not use ancient rites to restrain himself.
Emperor Han Ling shouted viciously at the kneeling ministers in the hall: "What, you want to call from the thief? ”
An imperial historian said: "Your Majesty, although Hefei Hou is not to be punished, but after all, he is a descendant of Emperor Gao, please Emperor Respect the gift of the ancestors to ban Hefei Hou!" ”
At this time, Zhang Rang, who was standing on the side of the dragon chair, sneered: "The gift of the ancestors? Is the rebellion also a gift of respecting the ancestors? Lord Zhang, do you also want to respect the gifts of your ancestors and follow the example of Yiyin and Huo Guangzhixian? ”
This Jean, the mouth is too poisonous! If you oppose it, you will oppose it, and compare this imperial history to Yi Yin and Huo Guang!
Who are Yi Yin and Huo Guang? This is the minister who has deposed the emperor! Every minister hopes that he can be like Yi Yin and Huo Guang, celebrities through the ages! But every emperor doesn't want ministers like Yi Yin and Huo Guang to appear in this dynasty!
Emperor Han Ling's gaze became cold: "Zhang Yushi, I see that you are also over the age of six, and you still don't care about the world, pay attention to rest!" ”
Emperor Han Ling's meaning couldn't be clearer: You are old, you should be less nosy and retire with peace of mind!
After hearing this, Zhang Yushi's eyes instantly overflowed with tears, and the white beard under his chin trembled slightly: "The old minister, please tell the old man to return to his hometown, please ask Your Majesty for permission!" ”
Emperor Han Ling waved his hand indifferently: "It's right!" ”
Zhang Yushi seemed to be ten years old for a while, stood up with difficulty, and looked around the Deyang Hall that he had been engaged in for decades again. In the end, Zhang Yushi leaned over and slowly withdrew from the Deyang Palace.
Because of this incident, the atmosphere in the Deyang Hall also became extremely dull, which also extinguished the original monstrous anger of Emperor Han Ling.
Looking at Hefei Hou Liu Yu, who was already too frightened to speak, Emperor Han Ling sighed and waved his hand irritably: "Take him down and lock him up!"
The Deyang Hall was quiet again, and Emperor Han Ling picked up the urgent item on the table again and continued to read.
After a moment, Emperor Han Ling stood up with a sad face, sighed deeply, and stopped talking.
Cai Yong, one of the ministers, hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, what's the difficulty in Jizhou?" ”
Emperor Han Ling raised his eyes and saw that it was Cai Yong, and replied with his eyes closed: "Wang Fen has been killed by Guan Wende!" ”
"Then Your Majesty should be happy!"
"Hey~~" Emperor Han Ling waved his hand: "Guan Yan said that although this Wang Fen is dead, tens of thousands of rebels have fled into various parts of Jizhou, and I am afraid that something will happen at any time, Guan Yan is now asking me to send troops to help!" ”
At the mention of sending troops, the ministers in the court frowned and stopped talking.
How many officers and soldiers are still in Luoyang City, others don't know, but these central ministers still know.
Now in Luoyang City, excluding the three thousand Yuling Army, there are only eight schools left in Xiyuan, adding up to more than 20,000 people.
As the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty, the men and horses of the Acropolis are not as good as some states and counties. If a large army is sent to Jizhou to quell the rebellion, I am afraid that the safety of Luoyang will be difficult to guarantee!
At this time, Zhang Rang bowed down again and said next to Emperor Han Ling: "Your Majesty, this matter is actually not difficult!" ”
"Oh! Father, come soon! ”
"That Guan Yan beheaded Zhang Liang, destroyed Han Sui, and Ping Zhang Yan, and Zhu Wang Fen also had a lot of achievements, which can be regarded as a pillar! At this time of crisis, why not worship him as the pastor of Jizhou, and make him lead the military and political affairs of Jizhou, so that he can not only show his merits, but also prevent the rebellion of Jizhou, why not? ”
Zhang Rang said with a smile, but he was thinking about the ten boxes of jewelry at home.
It was sent by Guan Yan to Zhang Rang's mansion in advance, and Zhang Rang naturally did things according to Guan Yan's ideas, and he Zhang Rang did this kind of official gift more than once!
It seems that Zhao Zhong's family has also received a lot, and he has also stepped forward to conform to it.
"That's a good idea! What do you think? ”
In this situation, Zhang Rang's proposal is the most reasonable and least harmful to the interests of all parties.
As a result, relatives, party members, and royalist figures seconded the proposal. In the Deyang Palace, the figures of all factions unanimously passed an order unprecedentedly.
