Volume 2 The Yellow Turban Rebellion Chapter 68 Luoyang Fengyun: He Jinmou, Xiang Aofu
"At the beginning, why did Zhang Rang and others stop visiting the ministers of the DPRK and China recently?"
If Zhang Rang and the others visited everywhere, He Jin would still feel a lot more stable in his heart, and he would be even more distressed when he suddenly calmed down like this. Yuan Shao was also depressed, hadn't he sent someone to Zhang Rang before, why did Zhang Rang calm down? It looks like I have given up, and you can wait for Liu to be the prince.
In this way, Yuan Shao, who made himself feel that everything was under control, was quite unhappy, and Zhang Rang, who was not in his control, was even more tired of the feeling of being out of control. How can my plan be ruined by Zhang Rang alone?
"The general doesn't have to worry, maybe Zhang Rang and the others have given up on resigning themselves when they see that there is no hope?" Although Yuan Shao was persuading, his tone was carelessly affirmative. When He Jin heard this, he felt bitter in his heart.
He Jin was originally a butcher, even if he was a little quick, but he was still a little powerless to fight with the eunuchs and children of the family who had been exposed to him since he was a child, so he had to rely on his own staff or the disciples of the family who were willing to get in and out of the family. What's more, He Jin is an indecisive person, he can't handle many things, and he wants to seize power, and he is afraid of offending too many families.
Seeing that Yuan Shao, who is currently the most important under his subordinates, said this, He Jin's heart was even more bottomless. Yuan Shao lowered his head and thought for a long time, his eyes lit up, and he said to He Jin with some excitement: "General, don't worry!" ”
"No matter what strategy He Jin has, just wait for the prince to inherit the throne, and it will be enough for us to clean up the captain of the military academy!"
"Oh?!" When He Jin heard this, he was curious: "How is it enough?" ”
"The general is the prince's uncle, and he is the general of the dynasty, and after the prince succeeds to the throne, the general is under one person, above ten million people!" Yuan Shao's face was extremely determined: "If you control the elite Eighth Captain of Xiyuan among the soldiers and horses in Luoyang again, who else in the entire Luoyang is the opponent of the general?" “
"At that time, the general will be able to eradicate the eunuchs for His Majesty and return the court to a clear court. At that time, the general will be the hero of the great merit of the Han Dynasty, who will dare to disobey the general in the future? ”
He Jin's eyes lit up when he heard this. He Jin followed the results of Yuan Shao's words in his mind, imagining that he would stand under Liu Bian in the future, give orders for Liu Bian, and govern the Han Dynasty, which is not good! Thinking of this, He Jin's face turned red, his breathing began to become short, and his face was even more unconsciously smirkling.
"Hahaha..."After a while, He Jin came to his senses and laughed and said: "I have the original, it is my luck, and the luck of the Han!" ”
"The Great General is false!" When Yuan Shao heard this, he bent down and bowed his head modestly. But on Yuan Shao's face, which He Jin couldn't see, he began to look a little hideous and proud.
"Originally, the first thing we had to deal with was Jian Shuo?"
"Yes, too!"
"But Jian Shuo is a close confidant of His Majesty, he is deeply favored by His Majesty, and he has a heavy army in the court, how should I deal with it?"
"The time has not yet come, don't worry, general!" Yuan Shao chuckled lightly and teased Guan Zi. He Jin was not annoyed when he saw this, and he was not in a hurry. Since Yuan Shao can be sure of this matter, he will be able to clean up Jian Shuo and seize his military power.
Five Plains of the Northern Regions.
"Lord, there is someone from Luoyang!" When Xiang Ao heard this, he frowned, why did he come again? Didn't you just come here a few years ago?
"You can stay in my study!" Xiang Ao put down the book and left first, heading towards the study.
"We've seen Champion Hou!" There were two of them, led by an old man, who greeted Xiang Ao. Xiang Ao also replied, "I don't know Your Excellency? ”
The old man lifted the black hat covering his head, allowing Xiang Ao to see the person's face clearly. If you look at the face, this person is probably past the old, full of white hair, but the body looks extremely strong. Although he was slightly hunchbacked, Xiang Ao did not dare to despise the explosive power hidden by the old man under the loose coat.
"Gentleman, can you take a step to talk?" The old man smiled, very kind, and let Xiang Ao recall the village chief in the god countryside at the beginning.
When Xiang Ao heard this, his face still changed, the old man was a master of the martial arts, and Xiang Ao didn't dare to take it lightly. When the old man saw Xiang Ao's expression, he knew what Xiang Ao was thinking. He took off his cloak, handed his sword to the man behind him, who was still black, and motioned for him to retreat outside the door. With Xiang Ao's eyesight, the old man did not have any weapons on his body at this time. Xiang Ao knew what the old man meant, waved his hand, and motioned for Dian Wei to go out.
Seeing this, Dian Wei was definitely reluctant to leave. When the old man was brought in, Dian Wei's whole body was tense all the time, and he didn't dare to relax in the slightest. It's really impossible, the seemingly calm old man puts too much pressure on Dian Wei. Even if Xiang Ao was in front of him, he had never been like this.
"It's okay, Awe just goes out!" Xiang Ao ordered again. Dian Wei was helpless, so he had to look at the old man vigilantly and slowly exit the door.
"Uncle, is that what you can say?" Xiang Ao's whole body was in a state of accumulation, and he was really worried that the old man would suddenly burst out, and he couldn't prevent it. Seeing Xiang Ao's state, the old man nodded slightly, still smiling and said, "You don't have to be nervous, the old man is here on behalf of His Majesty!" ”
"What evidence?" Xiang Ao asked softly. When the old man saw Xiang Ao like this, he also smiled a little bitterly in his heart. The years are not forgiving, and the old man who is getting older has less and less control over his momentum, and now those who have a little martial arts know that the old man is a martial artist.
The old man was helpless, and took out the dragon-patterned jade pendant that Liu Hong had carried with him in the past from his arms, handed it to Xiang Ao and said, "Do you remember this thing?" ”
Xiang Ao took the jade pendant and took a closer look, but it was the jade pendant that Liu Hong told him to write down when he first entered Beijing to listen to the seal. Then he handed the dragon pattern jade pendant back to the old man, and said, "I've seen the envoy!" The old man never identified himself, and Xiang Ao didn't know how to call him, so he had to use his name to show some respect in his heart.
"You can call the old and the dark old!" The old man chuckled and said, after many years in Weiyang Palace, the old man had long forgotten his surname.
"I don't know if the dark old man came today, is there any edict from His Majesty that needs to be completed by the ministers?"
The dark old man took the jade pendant handed back by Xiang Ao and said kindly: "It's not too important, it's just that Your Majesty misses the monarch a little, and ordered the old man to come to visit!" ”
"Thank you for your care!" When Xiang Ao heard this, he was still a little moved in his heart and asked, "I don't know if Your Majesty is in good health when he comes in?" ”
When the dark old man heard this, his expression sank. Xiang Ao's heart tightened when he saw this!
"Don't hide it from you, Your Majesty's time is short!" The dark old man's face was a little painful, a little worried, and even a little relieved, extremely complicated. When Xiang Ao heard this, he was also extremely uncomfortable in his heart. Accepting Liu Honghong's grace, Xiang Ao also wants to be able to repay Liu Hong in his lifetime, but he doesn't want Liu Hong...
"I don't know what His Majesty needs to do for the minister, and the minister will die!" Xiang Ao, who had been silent for a long time, really didn't know what words to use to express his emotions, so he had to hope that he could do something for Liu Hong after Liu Hong returned to the West.
"Your Majesty doesn't want you to die!" The dark old laughed softly: "You have the trust of Your Majesty, and you should live well to ensure your body!" ”
After that, the dark old man took out a simple map from his arms, and when he spread it out, it was no more than the size of his palm. Handed it to Xiang Ao and said: "Jun Hou, this place is the area of the Great Wall of Hannei in Shangjun, and Your Majesty has left heavy objects here." ”
Weight? What is a heavy object? Xiang Ao took the map, wondering in his heart, what was it that made Liu Hong send such a master to his hands.
"If there is a change in the court, the monarch needs to send someone to retrieve it as soon as possible to prevent a change!" The old man said very solemnly: "If the court can still be stable, there will be a post of governor of the state and state in the near future, and please take care of it for Your Majesty!" ”
"Tell Your Majesty that the ministers should do their best to protect it!" Xiang Ao put the map close to his body and bowed deeply. This worship is not for the dark elder, but for the dark old man to convey it to Liu Hong, the emperor of Han Ling, who is far away in Luoyang. "That's it!" The old man nodded with satisfaction and said no more.
"And there's a letter!" The dark old man took out the letter from his arms again and handed it to Xiang Ao and said: "Your Majesty has explained, this letter is not a secret letter, and the things in the letter are some common things for Your Majesty." However, the conditions to be dismantled are changed in the court! When Xiang Ao heard this, he also put away the letter very solemnly. However, what is extremely strange about Xiang Ao is that the secret edict sent last time has not been opened, and this time he sent a letter, and the conditions for opening it are the same. What exactly does Liu Hong want to tell Xiang Ao to do?
Although Xiang Ao was curious, since he promised to take it, he had to keep his promise, and he would not open it until the time came, not to mention the letter of Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty.
"If you are so old, you will take your leave!"
"Congratulations to the envoy!" Xiang Ao made a gesture and sent the dark old man away. The dark old smiled and nodded, turned around and went out without delay.
For some reason, after seeing Xiang Ao, the dark old man felt extremely relieved. Xiang Ao gave the dark old man the feeling that the person entrusted by His Majesty was very right. Even though the dark old man saw the purple qi above Liu Hong's head in the void above Xiang Ao's head, for some reason, the dark old man was not worried that Xiang Ao would have an unrighteous act, and he was even a little lucky.
The reason why he sent the dark old man to the Northern Regions this time was the last time Liu Hong confirmed whether Xiang Ao was a person who could be trusted. Even Liu Hong is not very clear about the life of the dark old man, and he knows that the dark old man has served the two first emperors, and it seems that he is the Taoist Zhuang Zhou Yan among the hundred schools of Shangqin Princes. Not only is the kung fu extraordinary, but also the time of the sky, the geography, and the way to know people also has a very high attainment.
Since the dark old man is willing to hand over the map to Xiang Ao, in the eyes of the dark elder, Xiang Ao is the person who can be trusted, and Liu Hong's plans will not be disappointed.
Of course, the dark old man was happy to leave, but Xiang Ao was depressed alone. Liu Hong helped Xiang Ao a lot before, and now he has left strange things, although Xiang Ao doesn't know what it is, but Xiang Ao seems to be definitely extraordinary. To help Xiang Ao grow up like this, it is right to use Xiang Ao's forces to do some countermeasures to help the Han family after he has achieved something, why do all the arrangements require Xiang Ao to let Xiang Ao know after there is a change in the palace?
According to the current situation, if Luoyang is in turmoil, it won't be long before the Han Dynasty falls apart, even if Xiang Ao reorganizes the country for Liu Hong, is it still the world of the Liu family? Even if Xiang Ao can't calm the cholera in the world, then wouldn't Liu Hong's current arrangements be a waste? Xiang Aosi discussed for a long time to no avail, and for the time being, he had to consult with others, so he had to wait patiently and wait and see the situation in Luoyang.
And there are many people in the world who watch the situation together, and Dong Zhuo is one of them.
