Volume 1 The Yellow Turban Rebellion Chapter 35 Aftermath

Since Guo Bin returned to the mansion, he has long since stopped behaving in the palace, but has been settled early with a heavy heart.

It is rare to see people like Guo Bin, and it is inevitable that they will worry about him in their hearts.

Dong Xing'er said to Guo Quan: "What do you say happened to Brother Bin?" Could it be that he said the wrong thing in front of the emperor? It shouldn't be, how can he, a bad belly, do a loss-making business? As far as his seven-trick exquisite heart is concerned, only he can pit people, and he can't pit people. ”

Guo Quan nodded in agreement and said, "It seems that Brother Bin Zi has encountered a problem, but if he doesn't say it, I don't dare to ask." ”

Guan Yu said: "In any case, if the lord thinks that he should tell me and wait, he will say it clearly; If the lord didn't say it, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to know. That's why I said, let's not worry about it, if we can't even hold on to the lord, who of us can? ”

Everyone felt justified, and then they dispersed.

During the day, Guo Bin entered the palace and played it right, and it can be said that he only did two things, one was to persuade Liu Hong to remove the market in the harem and change it to an exposition. The second thing is to say that sentence to Liu Hong: "Pray that Your Majesty will live a long life, the Son of Heaven is few and weak, and the reason for the chaos is also." ”

It can also be said that only one thing was done. Guo Bin's pretentiousness during the day was just for the last sentence he said to Liu Hong.

Since realizing Zhang Rang's plan, Guo Bin has tried his best to survive. made countless foreshadowings and promised Liu Hong the benefits of the expo, all for the last sentence to Liu Hong. Interfering with the abolition of the heir to the throne has been a matter of huge interests and huge risks since ancient times, and Guo Bin said how much risk he took when he said this, even he was afraid after thinking about it himself.

He did this not to please the Son of Heaven, not to please the future Young Emperor Liu Bian, and it was impossible to increase the bad feelings of Liu Xie, the Empress Dowager Dong, and even the Dong family that Liu Xie thought was a foreign family. He did this just to persuade Liu Hong not to abolish the elder and younger, just to cater to the scholars, and to gain the support of the scholar class. Because at present, Guo Bin's reputation and connections in Beijing are the biggest reliance on the scholar class. Guo Bin's self-esteem made him reluctant to admit it, but it was the case.

That night, Guo Bin's performance in front of the palace spread, at least everyone who should know knows.

He Jin was also very worried when he heard that Guo Bin had said such a thing to the Son of Heaven, but he felt that it was really worth the money when it came to promoting Guo Bin.

When Yuan Shao Cao Cao heard about it, he went to Guo's mansion overnight to find Guo Bin, and Cao Cao said excitedly: "Gongzhen Guoshi also!" ”

Zhang thought his three-step plan was mostly done, even if it was a little out of his control. From tomorrow onwards, he will continue to praise Guo Bin in public and build momentum for him, as if Guo Bin is deeply valued by the Ten Standing Attendants.

In the excitement and anxiety of all parties, the long night finally passed.

Before noon the next day, Yuan Shao, who went to his uncle's mansion to investigate the news, brought back the news: "The Son of Heaven said: With Situ Yuan Kui as the Taifu, from now on, he will teach the prince in the East Palace." ”

As soon as this policy came out, Taixue boiled! Scholars are boiling! The world is boiling!

Although there is no crown prince, and there is no subordinate official that the prince should have, teaching the prince to distinguish in the East Palace is tantamount to recognizing the status of the crown prince in disguise. The rumor that the Son of Heaven intends to spread the neutron Liu Xie is tantamount to a head-on attack. For the eunuch class that supported Liu Xie, it was undoubtedly a fiasco.

This was the first time since the disaster of the party that the scholars won a phased victory in the power struggle with the eunuchs.

The Confucian monarchs, ministers, fathers, sons, and sons won; The young and the old are orderly, and the difference between the young and the young wins.

At the moment when Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, released the policy, Guo Bin's name spread all over Beijing, and then it will spread all over the world.

Immediately afterwards, the Son of Heaven issued an edict to the effect that the merchants in Beijing displayed their goods in the inner palace, promoted the good and cut the bad by auction, and marketed the world in the name of royal use.

There is also a policy issued with this edict, the content is very simple, sealing Guo Bin as the Marquis of Fulong Pavilion, except for the Yangzhai County Order.

As soon as this policy came out, there was an uproar: since ancient times, there has never been a county ordinance that has been issued in the form of a policy, and this is the first case.

What's even more surprising is that the policy book reads: "Guo Bin tasted millions of dollars." It means that Guo Bin is going to spend one million dollars to buy this title plus the position of county magistrate. Don't buy? No such thing!

Seeing Ceshu, Guo Bin could only smile bitterly and shake his head: It's black, it's so dark! But it's not okay not to buy it, even if it's spending money to buy peace of mind.

Guo Bin's heart finally stabilized, and he was in pain and happy.

In the afternoon, Guo Bin received a famous post from He Jin, asking him to go to his uncle's mansion the next day to drink and admire the moon.

According to Yuan Shao, this time He Jinguang invited celebrities in Beijing to drink and admire the moon, but in fact, it was to celebrate the prince's move to the East Palace and build momentum for him.

returned the name card to the housekeeper of the uncle's mansion who came, and Guo Bin said that he would go to the banquet on time.

As the news spread, Guo Bin became the hottest political star in Luoyang City, and there was an endless stream of people who came to visit.

Of course, the real big people will not come, most of them are students of Taixue, and many are big businessmen in Beijing.

These businessmen are well informed, and they know that this expo was proposed by Guo Bin, so they have come to inquire about the news.

At the beginning, Guo Bin was still interested in receiving, but it was obvious that there were more and more people, so he secretly went out of the mansion and went to Lu Zhi's mansion to take refuge.

However, the news about the expo still needs to be explained in detail to a number of merchants. Although he had great expectations for the keen sense of smell of the merchants of this era, he was also afraid that if no one attended, the joke would be big. So he instructed Guo Quan and Guan Yu to explain the bidding method to everyone in detail, and deliberately outline the bright future after obtaining the naming right, so as to improve the enthusiasm of the merchants.

Of course, if it was just for the sake of face, Guo Bin would not be so concerned.

Let Liu Hong taste the sweetness to offset the bad impression formed by Guo Bin in the mind of the Son of Heaven because of his nonsense, and on the other hand, he also wants Liu Hong to make a sum of money to deal with the Yellow Turban Rebellion that will break out next year.

He was very unoptimistic about the Yellow Turban Uprising, a kind of war that occurred every two hundred years, like a curse on the heads of the Chinese, not only subverting the dynasty, but also strangling the population. While this would be the quickest and most practical way to reduce population density, it would be a bit too brutal and bloody.

In addition, the destruction of the productive forces by this kind of war is devastating, and many advanced inventions and technologies have been annihilated in the dust of history due to the war, and China has also entered a strange circle of start-rise-weakening-war-restart.

Therefore, Guo Bin was sympathetic to these wars, known as peasant uprisings, but did not support them.

Guo Bin rode a tall horse in front, and Dong Xing'er rode Moyu and ran back and forth, chirping like a cheerful magpie. The giggling laughter amused Guo Bin, who had been doing a lot of bad things recently.

Dong Xing'er's donkey is named Moyu, named because of the pitch black body and a handful of white hair on the top of his head. It's just that Guo Quan has always affectionately called him "Lao Hei", so angry that Dong Xing'er grabbed him and beat him several times.

Dong Xinger shouted that she wanted to go out of the city for a walk, and pulled Guo Bin to sell cuteness vigorously.

Guo Bin originally left the mansion in order to avoid a group of businessmen, although he was going to Lu Zhi's mansion, but he didn't have anything serious, so he simply followed Dong Xing'er to the outside of the city.

Halfway through, Guo Bin thought that he had nothing to do, and it would be good to go to the famous White Horse Temple in Luoyang City to have a look.

So I went out of the city to the south, took a detour to Taixue, and went in the direction of the White Horse Temple.

Gradually, the population became more and more scarce, and when he passed through a forest, a small black shadow in the forest silently flew towards the crook of Moyu's front leg, and Guo Bin's ability actually waited until the black shadow flew to the front three feet before he realized it.

At that moment, Guo Bin shouted: "Xing'er be careful!" "It's too late to come to the rescue.

Unbeknownst to me, the small black shadow flew to the crook of Moyu's leg and clicked, and it didn't even scratch the skin a little, and then fell to the ground.

Mo Yu knelt down with a thud and threw Dong Xing'er forward.

Guo Bin was shocked: The little black shadow turned out to be a small pebble. The ingenuity of the stone throwers in the forest, and the accuracy of the acupuncture points, are really what Guo Bin has never seen!

didn't have time to be in a daze, Guo Bin saw Dong Xing'er falling, and hurriedly jumped up, picked up Dong Xing'er like a big bird, and landed firmly on the ground.

At this time, another stone flew from the forest, and it was also silent, but it came directly from the back of Dong Xing'er's head. If it hits this time, with the kung fu of the people in the forest, if you want to take Dong Xing'er's life, it can be said that it is as easy as a hand.

Guo Bin was prepared at this time, and when he saw the stone flying, he pulled Dong Xing'er behind him, and picked up the dagger behind his waist to block it.

Hearing only the sound of "poof", the stones were broken into powder, Guo Bin took a step back, and his right hand holding the dagger actually shocked the other party slightly.

There are two stones in the front and back, one of which has not even rubbed off the leg hair of Moyu, but the other is amazingly powerful, and the person who throws the stone not only has to practice to a very high level, but also has to master the strength to the pinnacle.

The first stone is thought to be used to collect strength, so that the stone can be used to offset the strength of the forward rush after the stone points the acupoint of the black jade, so as not to hurt the black jade.

And the two pebbles can fly silently, thinking that the speed of rotation in flight is extremely fast, and the stones vibrate so fast that there is no sound when flying.

As the second stone was blocked by Guo Bin, a green-robed masked monster jumped out of the forest. I didn't see him bend his knees, but he jumped close to two feet, and suddenly he had bullied Guo Bin. The ground is silent, like a ghost.

Guo Bin has only read about this kind of body footwork in Mr. Jin Yong's book, and he has never seen such a strange and wonderful skill in his previous life.

I saw that the strange man was not tall, wearing a cyan robe, and the robe was missing a piece of the foot. Covering his face with a piece of green cloth, he thought it was a temporary intention, so he covered his face with the feet of his robe torn off. Holding a pitch-black long sword, the blade of the sword is slender and does not see the streamer.

The long sword swung over, only to feel a fierce aura rushing towards the face, which made the two of them almost breathless.

This feeling as if even the soul was suppressed, Guo Bin had never felt it when he practiced marksmanship with Tong Yuan, could it be that this person's martial arts were still above Tong Yuan? Or did Tong Yuan deliberately restrain this repressive force at the beginning?
