Chapter 129: He Jin's Death
General's Palace.
He Jin called all his "men" to his house.
"Now that His Majesty has just died, and the Ten Standing Servants are in control of the situation in the palace, what should we do now to reverse this situation?" He Jin spoke, "In addition, we don't know who His Majesty's edict wants to appoint as the crown prince, if I want to support my nephew Liu Wei as the crown prince, do you think this is feasible?" ”
"General, the most important thing for us now is that there is instability in the imperial city, so, Shao suggested, can we transfer troops from outside Luoyang City to stabilize the situation in the city!" Yuan Shao took the lead in saying.
"Are you transferring troops outside Luoyang City?" He Jin frowned, obviously, he didn't think this method was so good.
"That's right, it's to transfer troops from outside the Imperial City, in that case, the transferred soldiers and horses will not have any thoughts about the Imperial City, but will serve us more wholeheartedly!" Yuan Shao's tone was very confident, and it was obvious that he had already thought of this statement.
"That's right!" He Jin finally nodded, it seemed that what Yuan Shao said made a little sense, "So where do you think we should transfer troops from?" ”
"Liangzhou!" Yuan Shao said decisively, "Needless to say, the combat power of Liangzhou's soldiers and horses is extremely fierce, and besides, Liangzhou Mu Dong Zhuo has also received the favor of the general before, and he can be regarded as a person on our side!" ”
"Hmm!" He Jin nodded, feeling that what Yuan Shao said was indeed reasonable, "Then I will order Dong Zhuo to lead his troops to King Qin!" ”
"General, we now have another problem, that is, how to get rid of the Ten Permanent Servants first!" Yuan Shu opened his mouth at this time, he had also done his homework for the current situation, and seeing that his "brother" had been praised, how could he sit still?
"Yes, you're right, what do you do about the highway?" He Jin nodded again, this was the same as every time he discussed, kept nodding, and kept agreeing with his subordinates.
"I can't talk about a good way, I just want to remind the general!" Yuan Shu said a little arrogantly, "In the past few days, the Ten Standing Servants will definitely secretly ambush the general when he worships the first emperor, so as to take the general's life!" ”
Although what Yuan Shu said seemed to have a little truth, but Yuan Shu's voice was sharp, and his tone was even more ugly, such an attitude, He Jin was very displeased, so he just nodded in response, not taking such words to heart at all.
During the whole process, Cao Cao didn't say a word, just frowning and thinking, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
After discussing some inconsequential things, He Jin finally decided to worship the first emperor, although he didn't want to do this thing so much, but he still had to do it, otherwise, it would be easy to be criticized.
However, before paying homage to the first emperor, he went to the palace to meet his sister, that is, Empress He.
"Brother, you must help Bian'er get the throne!" After Queen He saw He Jin, the first thing she said was this.
"That's natural, if we can get power, then we will be in the sky, otherwise, we will not be far from destruction!" This most basic truth is still clear in He Jin's heart.
"Does my brother have any plans? Recently, these ten permanent servants have been keeping an eye on it, and my sister doesn't dare to make any moves here! Empress He said helplessly.
"There is nothing to be done for the time being, I have now ordered the transfer of troops from Liangzhou to suppress the Ten Standing Attendants, and when Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses arrive, it will be the end of the Ten Standing Attendants!" In fact, He Jin was also anxious in his heart, if he hadn't sent those dead soldiers out to deal with Sun Ce before, his subordinates would not be so unavailable now! Don't look at him now as a general, it seems that he controls all the soldiers and horses in the world, in fact, the bitterness in his heart is only known to him, these soldiers and horses are controlled in the hands of generals, although most of these generals listen to him, so he can have such a lofty status, but he knows very well that once his nephew Liu Wei does not ascend the throne and become the emperor, then his position will soon be lost!
"Okay, I don't understand these things, so I'll leave everything to my brother!" Empress He bowed her head slightly.
"Well, you have a good rest first, and I'll go and burn incense on that dead ghost first!" He Jin has no respect for Liu Hong at all.
"Okay, there you go!" Empress He nodded.
Leaving Empress He's bedroom, He Jin went straight to the mourning hall.
At this moment, black figures flashed out: "He Jin, take your life!" ”
"Huh?" He Jin was taken aback, didn't he say that there was an ambush in the mourning hall? How is it now? Moreover, these people were so bold that they actually ambushed Empress He outside the palace!
However, there is not so much time to think about He Jin now, because these men in black have already been killed!
He Jin hurriedly pulled out the saber on his waist, wanting to fight back, at least to save his life!
However, obviously, He Jin thought too much, He Jin was also a butcher before, at best, he only killed pigs, killed? Inexistent! At this moment, the saber is in his hand, and in the face of so many people in black, his hand holding the knife is a little trembling, how can he kill the enemy?
Soon, a man in black had already come to He Jin, and he easily picked the saber in He Jin's hand to the ground, and then cut off He Jin's head with a sword! Before He Jin could react to what was going on, he was already in a different place.
"Mission accomplished, let's withdraw!" The leader carried He Jin's body, picked up He Jin's head, and then led a group of people to leave.
In front of Empress He's dormitory, there was only a pool of blood, nothing else, of course, these bloodstains were quickly disposed of by the man in black, and everything was as if nothing had happened!
In the palace mourning hall, Zhang Rang was waiting there, and at the same time he was very puzzled in his heart, why didn't He Jin come yet?
"Report!" At this time, a small yellow door came to Zhang Ran.
"What's going on? What about Hejin? Zhang Rang hurriedly asked.
"Father-in-law Qi, then He Jin just went to the queen's bedroom, but now he has disappeared, as if he is not in this palace." Xiao Huangmen said.
"What?" Zhang Rang was taken aback, could it be that He Jin had already known that he would be ambushed, and then grew wings and flew away? Just kidding, it's definitely impossible.
"Humph!" After a while, Zhang Rang snorted, "In that case, then we will make the 'Edict of the First Emperor' public tomorrow!" Inform the ministers that tomorrow morning! ”
"Yes!"
