Chapter Twenty-Seven: Chaos Emerges
Zhang Ze's first step is to recover his industrial funds in Luoyang first, so in Luoyang, in addition to the Shuxiangyuan and the wine club, Zhang Ze has to sell all the other assets, return the funds, and lurk in other stores to do work and wait for the task arrangement.
The second step is the most comfortable step, Zhang Ze is worried about Luoyang's warehouse The army warehouse is not a day or two, since Huangfu Song is not in the army, then this long-planned thing can also be implemented. Since many generals in the army were replaced by Huangfu Song with the first batch of soldiers brought by Zhang Ze, the operation space of the fine work was very large, and the guards were careless, and the fine work quickly entered the warehouse.
Originally, according to the previous idea, half of it was taken away, and the rest was enough for these soldiers to eat for a long time, so that they would not go hungry, but when Zhang Ze found that most of these soldiers did not feel the slightest regret for the resignation of Huangfu Song and others, Zhang Ze changed his plan, because these people were not worthy of his sympathy, so Zhang Ze's order to the details was: "Leave nothing as you see it." ”
It's no wonder that these people who take care of the warehouse don't care so much, because they never imagined that someone would only need to put their hands on dozens of pounds of grain bags to easily collect all the grain inside, of course, the same is true for huge stones and wood, so it only took a few days, in addition to the existing warehouse in use, Zhang Ze has taken away all the rest of the warehouse inventory, and the whole process is very smooth.
The picture returned to the moment of planning in the house, Zhang Ze heard the sound of carrying things outside, but he always sat down on the chair and controlled himself not to go out, because he couldn't see Diao Chan so sad anymore, so after asking Dian Wei to escort the five girls away, Zhang Ze rushed out of the house and ran into Diao Chan's room, the smell of Diao Chan remained in the room, and when he came to the table, he found a letter pressed under the teacup, and Zhang Ze hurriedly opened it.
"Brother Ze, I don't know when you will see this letter, although I don't know what will happen in Luoyang, but as long as you are safe, Chan'er will feel very happy, Chan'er is very well-behaved, I will wait for you in Changshan County, and I will take good care of the four maid sisters, you don't forget what you promised Chan'er, I want to see you come back completely, Chan'er will miss you very much, if the matter is dealt with, you must come back quickly."
The letter ended here, there were obviously tears on the paper that had not dried up, Zhang Ze's eyes were red at this time, people are an emotional animal, in the face of such a true and pure beautiful girl who loves him, Zhang Ze is determined to use his life to take care of her.
walked out of the room with the letter, and at this time Zhang Ze himself was left in the huge inner courtyard, sitting alone on the swing, recalling the previous bits and pieces, as if the girls were playing in front of them, and the laughter was continuous in their ears.
A few days later.
After all the detailed work has completed the tasks assigned by Zhang Ze and left smoothly, Zhang Ze looked at the grain and grass in the system that is enough for 800,000 troops to use for a year and the bows and arrows, iron, stones, wood and other items that Luoyang has saved over the years, it can be said that in a short period of time, Zhang Ze has changed, Mr. Zhang has become a nouveau riche, it can be said that at present, the strength of the entire three countries in terms of military materials, Zhang Ze has reached the strongest, Zhang Ze directly put these resources into the construction of the territory in an orderly manner, it is estimated that it will not take more than a month, The construction of all military and civilian facilities in the territory will go ahead of all the princes, even surpassing the capital city of Luoyang.
Just when Zhang Ze was intoxicated with the rapid development and sudden wealth of his territory, all the officials fell into a panic, and the gossip that the emperor was seriously ill kept coming out, and the source of these gossip was from those who went to the palace every day to ask for their lives, because they felt that the atmosphere in the palace had changed drastically, and there were constantly imperial doctors and eunuchs and palace maids who moved around frequently, and when they went to the imperial doctor's mansion to inquire about the emperor's situation, the housekeeper told the lord that he had not returned, and it went on for several days. The imperial doctors were called away from their homes one after another, and no one could come out of the palace again, and with the continuous inquiry, such news was passed out at an astonishing speed, so that now Luoyang, whether it is a wealthy family or an ordinary person, is covering their lips to discuss this issue whenever they meet.
Such news has caused social chaos in Luoyang, fortunately, it has little impact on the people, and the society can remain at a stable level, after all, no matter who is the emperor, it will not affect them much, but these officials can not be so open-minded, once the son of heaven and a courtier, now there are two princes, and the emperor has not yet set up a prince, most people are waiting, waiting for the exact news, some people have begun to work, want to choose a suitable position to stand in line.
It's not so much the struggle between the two princes, but the struggle between the two bigwigs in the harem, one is Queen He, the biological mother of the older prince Liu Bian, and the other is the Empress Dowager Dong, the biological mother of the prince Liu Xie, Wang Meiren, was eliminated by Queen He in the harem battle, and has been taking in and raising Liu Xie, the conflict between the two pillars of the harem has always existed, but they are all deceitful in the harem, and now with the help of the ministers, the battle between the two has completely entered the political stage.
With Empress He's elder brother, the general He Jin, being called into the palace by Empress He, the whole struggle came to the highest peak.
"Brother, I only have you to rely on now." Empress He cried and complained to He Jin.
"Sister, don't worry, speak slowly, what happened in the palace, what happened to the emperor's body?"
"The emperor has died." Empress Dowager He said word by word, her voice trembling a little.
"What!" He Jin was also frightened by such information, and everyone outside said that the emperor was just seriously ill, but he didn't expect it to be.
"The ten permanent servants said that they couldn't talk about this matter yet, saying that it would cause chaos in the court, and the woman and I agreed, but it was not a way to go on like this, our conflict has become more and more intense, and I don't know when it will hurt Bian'er, so I also need my brother to contact the hundred officials as soon as possible and make Bian'er the emperor."
"No problem, this matter is wrapped up in me, now the Royal Forest Army in the palace is under my command, I will first give you a team of soldiers and horses to protect you and Zhi'er by your side."
After the agreement was completed, He Jin, who knew that there was no further ado, hurried out of the palace, and at the same time began to gather his soldiers and send them to contact various officials of the court and China headed by Wang Yun and Lu Zhi, including Zhang Ze, of course.
