Not long after, Lu Zhi came again, raised the edict in his hand and said: "The edict has arrived, so that Ding Yuan is not allowed to lead troops into the capital within 20 miles, only 3,000 troops are allowed to patrol the capital, and the palace does not need to be guarded by him." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Also, you have too many soldiers and horses, so quickly withdraw 2,000 men and camp them twenty miles away. ”

Han Yi secretly hated in his heart, twenty miles away, he was about to retreat to Bishan, this was obviously not believing himself and Ding Yuan. Everyone was only allowed to lead 3,000 troops into the city, which meant that no one could pose a big threat in the city.

It's a pity that He Miao died early, and the Queen Mother was just betrayed by her former cronies and eunuchs, and the two brothers died, so she didn't trust herself. Otherwise, how could he not have any status in the court and the palace.

The Empress Dowager's edict has been issued, and Han Yi has no choice but to ride his horse to receive the summoning order, and order Wen Chou and Chu Hu to lead the troops to withdraw from the city, and together with the 40,000 northern army, they will go to Bishan to set up a village.

In the early morning of the second day, the emperor was seen entering from the north gate under the escort of the ministers and nearly 10,000 soldiers, and then detoured to the south gate of the palace. The thousands of guards who originally guarded the northern city, under the leadership of the captain of the city gate, forcibly retook over the city gate guards, and were unceremonious to Han Yi's army. This made Han Yi discover that there was indeed nothing special about him in Luoyang City. This made Han Yi, who had been calling for wind and rain in Xihe County in recent years, very dissatisfied.

However, Ding Yuan, although he did not fully control the city's city defense, because he had been guarding the customs in Beijing for many years, he knew a lot of people. Now he is the Jinwu again, so he is valued by others, and he goes to other people's houses every day to feast, and he is happy.

Originally, Han Yi wanted to kill Wu Kuang and Dong Min He Miao to avenge him, but Wu Kuang died on the street early the next morning, and Dong Min hid in his brother Dong Zhuo's camp in the west of the city, and he was helpless for a while. Han Yi was unhappy, so he could only hide and watch everything in the capital with a cold eye.

Two days later, Han Yi took his son He Yun to the camp, changed his name to Han Bin, and re-adopted him as a concubine. The He family did not have the support of He Miao, and why Miao had a young son, both inside and outside the house needed Han Yi's protection, so he had no choice but to Han Yi, and acquiesced to Han Bin's recognition of his ancestors and returned to his ancestors.

On this day, Bao Hong came to Han Yi's camp to visit, Han Yi had an old friend to visit, so he was naturally happy and welcomed Bao Hong into the camp to drink and chat.

Bao Hong bowed and said: "Thanks to Mingyuan's strong help, Hong escaped the disaster of killing by luck." ”

Han Yi said with a smile: "I said Brother Bao a long time ago, it is not a good thing to associate with others with money. You embezzled military funds to settle Yuan Shu, and after the incident, Yuan Shu could save you. ”

Bao Hong sighed ashamedly: "I wanted to buy off the matter of the Runan Gepo thieves with my daughter, so as to obtain some seized smuggling." I don't want that Huang Wan to be so unreasonable, and insist that I am embezzling military spending. Can seizures be the same as military spending? Yuan Highway saw that I embezzled military funds to marry him, and guessed that I had already lost my family property, and even ignored me and didn't miss half of the old feelings, I was completely disappointed. Fortunately, there is also Mingyuan's help. ”

Han Yi asked, "I wonder what Brother Bao has planned recently?" ”

Bao Hong said with a smile: "Luoyang is expensive, and it is not easy to live for a long time. I have no money left, and I am going to sell the house and ask for a job here in Mingyuan. ”

Han Yi was stunned and said hesitantly: "Brother Bao used to be one of the eight schools in the West Garden, and he is not much worse than me, how dare I use Brother Bao as an official?" ”

Bao Hong shook his head and smiled: "What is the Eighth School of the West Garden, if I rely on my own ability, I will be reluctant to be a Sima, let alone the elite of the Eighth School of the West Garden." Mingyuan, you are the real talent, in just a few years, you have become a general of Yingyang, a general of the Huns, and a civil and military double position of leading Xihe Taishou. This is the model of my generation. ”

After thinking about it, Han Yi said: "In this way, Xihe still lacks the post of lieutenant of a county, and the general of the chariot cavalry is dead, and the court may send someone to restrain me." It's better for others to go than Brother Bao, how about I want to make some money and buy this job for Brother Bao? ”

Bao Hong's eyes flashed, and he said gratefully: "Thank you Mingyuan, no, thank you General Yingyang." ”

Han Yi said with a smile: "Brother Bao didn't think I was poor and cheap, and I had a relationship with my brother, how dare I be big in front of Brother Bao today." ”

Bao Hong was humble many times, but Han Yi just didn't allow it, and in the end Bao Hong had to give up. After drinking a few more glasses of wine, Bao Hong suddenly asked: "This time the Luoyang Rebellion, the general and the general of the chariot and cavalry both died, and the eunuchs in the palace also died. It can be said that the power in Jingzhong has been vacated a lot, and Mingyuan is not half interested in it? ”

Han Yi looked at Bao Hong strangely and asked puzzledly: "My official position is not small, but it is not big. General Yingyang is a seal, but he is a miscellaneous general, and his actual job is to protect the Huns Zhonglang General, Xihe is too guarded, and he is still a high-ranking official outside, but it is not worth mentioning in Luoyang City. Can I intervene in this power struggle in Luoluo? ”

Bao Hong snorted and said, "Then it depends on what you think Mingyuan." ”

Han Yi stopped drinking, and looked at Bao Hong to listen to the details. After Bao Hong drank a glass of wine, he closed his eyes and thought for a while, and then said: "Mingyuan can know that the real initiation of the clan of this dynasty was when Emperor Xuan of the former Han Dynasty. In the era of Wang Mang, in less than a hundred years, the family became the tail of the royal family. If Mingyuan were to read history, he would definitely know why. ”

Han Yi was embarrassed, he really didn't have time to study, and he didn't know the reason why the family made a fortune. Bao Hong shook his head and smiled: "If you want to say it, it will involve hundreds of years of struggle between the world clan and the imperial power, I can try to make a long story short." Emperor Guangwu of this dynasty was supported by the Shandong family, and after ascending the throne, he once wanted to measure the acres of land in the world and check the household registration, but he was resisted by the world family, and finally failed. ”

"What Emperor Guangwu can't do, future generations can't do. Later, the emperor knew that the clan was powerful, so he came up with a way to use eunuchs to control the power and fight against the clan. The power of the eunuchs comes from the emperor, and they do not care about anything at all. That's why he was able to fight with the world. However, the emperor of this dynasty died early, so there was a queen mother to listen to the government, which gave the relatives a chance, so that the relatives also had the opportunity to grasp power. ”

It can be said that eunuchs and relatives are attached to the imperial power in order to grow, and none of them is indispensable. However, now that they have all disappeared, and the emperor is young, the power of the court has completely fallen into the hands of the world. In fact, it fell into the hands of the Yuan family. This Yuan's former officials are all over the world, and they really let them control the power of the dynasty, but I am afraid that even the emperor will be his family in a few years. ”

Han Yi sighed: "The world is like this, what can we do?" ”

Bao Hong said coldly: "Yes, naturally there is, that is, to take refuge in the emperor and become a eunuch and a relative against the existence of the world." ”

"Hiss......" Han Yi couldn't help but gasp, although he had the intention of being a Han scholar, he could fight against the world, did he have this ability?

Bao Hong said in a low voice: "Recently, I heard a rumor that the Yuan family intends to abolish the Lili, abolish the emperor Liu Bi, and set up Liu Xie, the king of Chenliu......"

Han Yi was taken aback again and asked, "Is the rumor true?" ”

Bao Hong nodded and said, "This was secretly told to me by a subordinate close to me in the Yuan Highway Mansion, and I heard that the Yuan family is already in the process of implementation. ”

Han Yi was shocked and asked, "Does Brother Bao know the specific details?" ”

Bao Hong nodded and said: "I heard that Dong Zhuo, the former official of the Yuan family, first secretly co-opted the captains and Simas of the Second Army of the North and South and the Xiyuan Army, and then Dong Zhuo forced each other with troops to see who the loyalists of the court were?" Then try to get rid of them one by one. Then the Yuan family officials took control of the court, and finally abolished the establishment and shocked the world. ”

Han Yi said heavily: "If it's the Yuan family, I'm afraid it will be successful." ”

Bao Hong covered his mouth and smiled: "Hehehe, it's a pity that the Yuan family forgot one thing, that is, when they treat people as chess pieces, will this chess piece be willing to be at their mercy." ”

Han Yi was shocked: "Brother Bao is saying that Dong Zhuo himself also has different intentions?" ”

Bao Hong said with a smile: "I have dealt with Dong Zhuo in Zuo Fengyi, although Dong Zhuo is rude, fierce and brutal by nature, but his bearing is far-reaching and ambitious, but he is not comparable to He Jin, and he will be willing to become Yuan's pawn." After the Yuan family helped him support and control the military power of Luoyang, it was the time when Dong Zhuo was in trouble. ”

Han Yi summarized the news that Bao Hong had just said, and asked for a long time: "The Yuan clan wants to do something to abolish the establishment to enhance the prestige of the Yuan clan. But Dong Zhuo is not the indecisive He Jin, after holding the military power of Luoyang, he will definitely suppress the Yuan family, abolish the act of self-determination, and become the final success. ”

Bao Hong clapped his hands and smiled: "That's right." ”

Han Yi asked, "Then how should we deal with it?" ”

Bao Hong pointed at Han Yi and said with a smile: "Mingyuan, you are really a fan of the authorities." Guiyue's father-in-law, Ding Yuan, Ding Jianyang, held 30,000 soldiers from the counties who had not yet gone, and he was in charge of the 50,000 troops of the Northern Army as the ruling Jinwu. Coupled with Mingyuan's 10,000 army, this 90,000 army is the biggest reliance against the Yuan family and Dong Zhuo. ”

Han Yi said suddenly: "I see, no wonder Lord Yuezhang often gathers for banquets in the mansions of the senior officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee in the past few days. I think they were faintly aware of it. ”

Bao Hong said with a smile: "Exactly, the Yuan clan wants to monopolize the power of the dynasty, and how willing the other clans are, it is inevitable that they will make some moves." It's just that in my opinion, Ding Jianyang is a little confused, but I'm afraid that their expectations will be disappointed. ”

Han Yi groaned: "Although my father-in-law and I are noble sons-in-law, we are only righteous sons-in-law, I am afraid that he is so proud now that he will not listen to me." ”

Bao Hong said: "So I said, it depends on Mingyuan, what do you think?" ”

Han Yi still had something unclear in his heart, Bao Hong couldn't help but have some hatred for the idea that iron does not become steel, and said: "Since Mingyuan became an official, he has always been under the command of He Che Qi, and after He Che Qi died, he immediately sent troops to protect He Che Qi's upper and lower people in the mansion. In the eyes of the world, Mingyuan, you are He Cheqi's most descendant subordinate. If you are bent on protecting Ho, no one will believe you! ”
