After Zhang Liao's army went to the Western Regions, Qin Hua's transformation of Liangzhou also came to an end.

The affairs of the Chamber of Commerce were handed over to Xun You to deal with, and Qin Hua could stay in the state pastor mansion and enjoy a rare leisure time.

Cui'er beside her was waiting carefully, and Xiu'er and Beigong Tiexin were presenting different styles of dances for Qin Hua.

When I have nothing to do, I practice martial arts and read books, which can be described as quite comfortable.

But this situation did not last long, less than two months after Zhang Liao's army left, the north was in an emergency, and the Xianbei people went south.

At this time, it was already the winter of 188, because of the lack of food, the Xianbei people launched another attack on the Han Dynasty, intending to plunder enough food.

The caravan sent by Qin Hua to Xianbei before was also heard from, and it should have been robbed.

At this time, it was a critical point in history, Qin Hua clearly remembered that Dong Zhuo would enter Beijing in 189, he originally did not want to start a war with Xianbei, he originally wanted to solve the problem of Xianbei by negotiation, and it was best to establish trade relations in the negotiations, because no matter how you look at it, this is a win-win situation.

But this time, neither Jia Xu nor Xun You agreed with Qin Hua's opinion, and they agreed that they must start a war with Xianbei.

For such a semi-civilized nation, direct negotiations will not work, only through war, and victory in war, and then everyone can sit down and have a good talk.

After the pros and cons of Quan, Qin Hua finally agreed with the views of the two, and in order not to fall into a protracted war, Qin Hua decided to go on a personal expedition.

This time, he not only brought the remaining 20,000 regular troops that could be used, but also transferred 20,000 Qingyang cavalry from Qingyang City.

Just when Qin Huashuai's army was heading towards Beidi County, a major event also happened in Luoyang, and Emperor Ling was seriously ill.

This is nearly a year earlier than the history that Qin Hua knows, and in fact, this is actually Qin Hua's pot.

After Qin Hua met He Jin, He Jin thought that he had subdued Qin Hua, and after Qin Hua gave him a big gift twice, he felt that Qin Hua was already his confidant.

Although most of Qin Hua's actions in Liangzhou were kept secret from the outside world, they were still somewhat introduced to Luoyang City.

He Jin learned that Qin Hua had at least tens of thousands of elite troops under him, and that Emperor Ling was constantly suppressing his power, He Jin was ready to make a move.

He asked people to add an extra medicine to the decoction of the Spirit Emperor, although it was not a poison, but long-term use not only had no effect on the Spirit Emperor's illness, but also blocked the medicinal properties of other medicines.

All the Spirit Emperors who could have been able to hold out for a while longer were already dying.

The reason why He Jin did this was to let the prince born to his sister wait for the throne as soon as possible, once the prince succeeded to the throne and the new emperor was young, his uncle, who was a great general, would be able to completely control the court situation, and it would not be a trivial matter to eliminate the ten permanent servants at that time.

However, just as He Jin was about to write a letter to inform Qin Hua to bring troops into Beijing, he received Qin Hua's recital.

"Xianbei people raid the border? Hum. ”

He Jin angrily slapped the recital on the table, he didn't expect that during this critical period, Qin Hua actually left Liangzhou and went north to fight the Xianbei people.

"This Qin Xuanhu is a big disappointment."

Qin Hua's troops could not be counted on, so He Jin could only figure out his own way.

So he summoned those "henchmen" to He Mansion to discuss the matter of dealing with the Ten Standing Servants, including Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, who were the eighth lieutenants of Xiyuan at this time.

"The emperor is seriously ill, what do you want?"

After half a round of drinking, He Jin finally began to discuss business.

"We all look forward to the head of the general."

Yuan Shao and the others bowed to He Jin.

"Your Majesty has not appointed a prince, I thought that the prince could succeed to the throne as the emperor."

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, because the matter of Emperor Ling's love for the Emperor's Association had already spread, and it was only because of the relationship between Empress He (He Jin's sister) that Emperor Ling did not canonize the crown prince for a long time.

At this time, someone below stood up and said: "The prince is old, and he should be made the emperor." ”

After He Jin listened, he glanced at everyone, and when he saw that there was no opposition, he was ready to ask everyone to jointly play an invitation.

And the matter of the gathering in He Mansion soon reached the ears of the ten permanent attendants, and the ten people were terrified of it.

Jian Shuo, the strongest of the ten, stood up and said, "Your Majesty is critically ill, and he called me to the bed a few days ago, hoping that I can support the succession of the Prince's Association. ”

After listening to Jian Shuo's words, the rest of the people agreed, they were the closest people to the emperor, and they naturally knew what the Spirit Emperor thought.

Only Zhang Rang, who had the highest status, was silent, and everyone quieted down when they saw this.

"He Jin holds the military power, and we are not his opponents, if he insists on going his own way, even if we have His Majesty's edict, it will be useless."

Zhongchang servant Duan Qi said.

"Why don't we wait and pray for Your Majesty to remove He Jin's military power, then there is no military power in hand, what can he do to us?"

Zhao Zhong said on the side.

"No, if Your Majesty can remove He Jin's military power, why wait until now, he would have already appointed the prince as the crown prince. Don't you think that His Majesty didn't appoint the prince as the crown prince because of Empress He? It's not because He Jin is in power, His Majesty has scruples. ”

Everyone talked for a while, and finally Jian Shuo came up with a plan.

"Why should I lure He into the palace, he can't bring a large number of soldiers with him when he enters the palace, and when the time comes, I will kill him in the palace, and then report to Your Majesty, saying that He entered the palace with bad intentions. Your Majesty will be very pleased with our action, so that he can directly canonize the prince as the crown prince. ”

After hearing this, everyone agreed, and immediately began to plan if they lured He into the palace.

But what they didn't expect was that while they were discussing, a small yellow door outside the window was eavesdropping on their conversation.

and told all these conversations to the general He Jin.

He Jin was furious when he learned that the Ten Standing Servants actually wanted to plot to harm him, but because these people were in the palace, he couldn't lead troops to break in and kill them.

The leak was soon known to the Ten Attendants, and they were all terrified.

The next night, there was a knock on the door of Hefu.

The person who came was a small yellow door in the palace, holding a tray in his hand, tremblingly waiting for He Jin's summons.

He Jin, who was already preparing to rest, knew that it was someone from the palace, so he let him in.

I didn't expect this person to send a huge head.

Looking at Jian Shuo's unsightly head, he knew that he had been attacked to death without knowing it.

And the people who killed him were the other attendants.

After learning that He Jin knew about their plan, these people immediately killed Jian Shuo and made him a scapegoat.

In addition to sending Jian Shuo's head to He Mansion, all these people hid in Queen He's palace, hoping to get Queen He's protection.

He Jin listened to Xiao Huangmen's words, but he did not dispel the idea of sanitizing the ten permanent attendants, the ten permanent attendants and He Jin have been fighting too well over the years, he will not let them go because of a sloppy head.

Unexpectedly, the next day, there was another word from the palace that Queen He was going to summon him.
