Chapter 164: Punish the eunuch party and send an edict to Dong Zhuo
The Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty has died, and the heavens of the 12 states of the Han Dynasty have completely changed!
Before the death of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, there was already an undercurrent surging in the city of Luoyang; After the death of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, the sword and sword shadow in the city of Luoyang are about to be swords!
The death of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty completely broke the balance between the eunuch clique headed by Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong and the relatives and party clique led by He Jin.
Without the intermediary of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and mediating from it, Zhang Rang Group is bound to fight with He Jin Group, fighting for life and death!
……
A country cannot be without a king for a day!
The general He Jin is the half-sister, Empress He gave birth to the eldest prince Liu Wei, and Wang Meisheng gave birth to the second prince Liu Xie.
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty wanted to abolish the elder and establish Liu Xie as the new emperor of the Han Dynasty because he favored Wang Meiren.
For this reason, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty specially appointed the eighth captain of the West Garden, and even appointed the eunuch Xiao Huangmen Jian Shuo as the captain of the military academy to control He Jin.
When Emperor Ling of Han was dying of illness, he asked Jian Shuo to help Liu Xie ascend to the throne!
After the death of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, Jian Shuo secretly planned to kill He Jin when he entered the palace, so as to assist Liu Xie to ascend the throne.
But it backfired, and Sima Panyin, who was very strong, sent a message to He Jin in advance, and He Jin escaped. Then, the eldest prince Liu Wei was established as the new emperor, the Empress Dowager He came to the court, and the general He Jin and the Taifu Yuan Kui assisted the government, and recorded the Shangshu affair together.
He Jin hated the eunuch in the first place, and when he saw that the eunuch Jian Shuo wanted to kill him, he hated the eunuch even more in his heart. Since He Jin came to power, he has conspired with his subordinates many times to get rid of the eunuchs of the imperial court.
Yuan Shao suggested that He Jin should first select the world's talents and talents, as wings, and then rectify the world and get rid of the eunuchs. He Jin thought of the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, whose fame was in the world, so he accepted Yuan Shao's suggestion.
As a result, He Jin appointed Yuan Shao as the lieutenant of Si Li, He Hao as the lieutenant of the Northern Army, Xun You as the Huangmen squire, and Zheng Tai as the Shangshu. At the same time, more than 20 people such as Chen Lin and Feng Ji were promoted, and these people became He Jin's henchmen.
He Jin's actions reached the ears of the captain of the military academy. Jian Shuo was frightened in his heart, so he often served Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others, hoping that they could work with him to get rid of He Jin first.
Contrary to his wishes again, He Jin's fellow county people, Guo Sheng, a regular servant in the middle, was close to He Jin, so he said that Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others should be close to the general He Jin. Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others listened to Guo Sheng's suggestions.
Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others even informed He Jin of Jian Shuo's intention to murder He Jin. He Jin was furious, and ordered the Yellow Gate to arrest and kill Jian Shuo, and took the opportunity to annex Jian Shuo's army.
After the fall of Jian Shuo, Yuan Shaojin said that he should command the internal and external military, take charge of the forbidden army, and take advantage of the situation to lead the troops to kill the eunuchs led by Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong. He Jin accepted Yuan Shao's suggestion, and told the Empress Dowager He about the plan to kill the eunuch.
How do you know, the eunuchs led by Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong had already bribed Empress Dowager He's mother Wu Yangjun and Che Cavalry General He Miao.
Wuyangjun and He Miao even begged the Empress Dowager He many times not to listen to He Jin's advice to kill the eunuchs. Therefore, He Jin's several suggestions were not adopted by Empress Dowager He!
From the end of September 187 until November, He Jin spent his time in indecision, and the killing of the eunuchs had been delayed for a long time, but there was no substantial progress!
……
The General's Palace!
"Now, the Queen Mother does not accept the proposal of Benhou to enter the palace to exterminate the eunuchs, what other good strategies do you have?"
He Jin toasted a glass of wine to everyone and said with a solemn expression.
"Shenhou, since the Queen Mother does not accept our suggestions, based on what I saw at the beginning, it is better to send an edict to the fierce generals of various states and counties, and ask them to lead their troops into Luoyang City. At that time, the Queen Mother will inevitably compromise with Shenhou, and it will be easy to kill the eunuchs! ”
Yuan Shao got up and saluted He Jin, and said loudly.
"Be careful! How can such a deceitful plan be used for national affairs! ”
"Now, Shenhou is in charge of the internal and external military, in charge of the forbidden army, the momentum is huge, and the Weijia sea is just like a dragon and a tiger! Advance or retreat, all in the thought of Shen Hou. ”
"If Shenhou abandons these advantages and looks for foreign aid, it is undoubtedly a plot with the tiger. When the time comes, the state and county Chen soldiers will be under the city of Luoyang, and in a few days, the strong will be the male, the weak will be destroyed, and it will be difficult for Luoyang to defend itself! This is the way to take trouble and chaos in government, and I hope to think twice! ”
Chen Lin listened to Yuan Shao's words, and was shocked, and hurriedly got up and bowed his hand.
"Why is Kong Zhang so cautious and worried! Now, the Eighth Captain of the West Garden, the Fifth Captain of the Northern Army, and the soldiers and horses of the Three Rivers are all under the orders of Shenhou, which Luzhou and County people dare to compete? ”
Yuan Shao was stunned, anxious, and laughed.
"Good! What Ben said at the beginning is exactly what Ben Hou wants. I don't know which way to pass the edict? ”
He Jin listened to Yuan Shao's flattering words, and his heart was overjoyed, and he laughed loudly.
"Shen Hou, you can pass on the edict and the state pastor, the former general Dong Zhuo, the Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang, the Dongjun Taishou Qiao Mao, the Bingzhou Wumeng Commander Ding Yuan, and the cavalry Captain Bao Xin five people to come!"
Yuan Shao's eyebrows tightened and he thought for a long time, and then spoke.
"Shenhou, if you really want to summon foreign aid, your subordinates recommend one person, and this person is ......"
Chen Lin saw that He Jin had made up his mind, and said in a deep voice.
Before Chen Lin finished speaking, Cao Cao laughed loudly: "The people recommended by Kong Zhang, but Liangzhou Mu, General Zhengxi, and Li Mu, Marquis of Ningcheng? ”
"Exactly!" Chen Lin nodded.
"No! Li Mu was reckless in his troops, and he was fierce in Liangzhou, and he disobeyed the edict of the emperor twice, and this person was not a loyal and good general of the Han Dynasty. If Li Mubing enters Luoyang, Luoyang may not be owned by the Han Dynasty! ”
Yuan Shao remembered that a year ago, Li Mu made him lose face, and he didn't like it, so he hurriedly said.
"Meng De thinks that he wants to pass on Li Mu?" He Jin is left and right.
"I'm afraid, even if the edict is preached...... This person will not come to Luoyang either! ”
Cao Cao didn't support He Jin in calling for foreign aid, but when He Jin asked, he still said what he thought.
"Since this is the case, then there is no need to pass on Li Mu!" He Jin made a final decision.
"Those who mess with the world must be you Yuan Benchu!"
As soon as Cao Cao's words fell, he brushed his sleeves and left!
Yuan Shao looked at Cao Cao's back and smiled, the smile on his face gradually deepened.
……
A few days later, He Jin's letter reached Dong Zhuo.
Just when Dong Zhuo was hesitating, the strategist Li Ru analyzed the pros and cons, and bluntly said that entering Beijing would have a hundred benefits and no harm! Dong Zhuo then made up his mind and led his troops into Beijing.
In the middle of November 187, Dong Zhuo, the former general of the state pastor, and the Hou of the township, garrisoned Guanzhong Shanglinyuan.
Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang led strong crossbowmen and garrisoned more than 100 miles north of Luoyang City.
Dongjun Taishou Qiao Mao and Cavalry Captain Bao Xin, garrisoned Chenggao and threatened to attack Luoyang City.
The general He Jin instructed Ding Yuan, the commander of Wumeng, to burn Mengjin, and the fire shone so that the city of Luoyang was red.
All the soldiers and horses said that they would kill the eunuchs. But Empress Dowager He still disagreed.
Yuan Shao saw that He Jin was hesitant, and spoke again, bluntly saying that if you don't plan early, it will change later!
He Jin had to listen to Yuan Shao's suggestion and let Yuan Shao control Luoyang City; Appointed Wang Yun, who was engaged in Zhonglang, as Henan Yin: ordered Dong Zhuo and other soldiers and horses from all over the place to gallop on the post and prepare to march into the army Ping optimistic.
It was only at this time that Empress Dowager He felt scared!
