Chapter 69: Luoyang Junjie
Li Xungang listened to the words of the first half, and was busy with the number of spirits, and was about to attend to receive the order. Unexpectedly, Dong Zhuo's words changed, and he was suddenly disappointed.
"Whether it is Han Jiuqu or Ma Manzi, they are not ordinary people, although they are good at recruitment, but to deal with these two people, the heat is still not enough." As Dong Zhuo spoke, his eyes shook like bursts of light, and Li Xu, who was a little resentful in his heart, was so frightened that his heart jumped, and he hurriedly lowered his head. Li Su was also shocked. It can be seen that Dong Zhuo's moodiness is famous, especially when his eyes shine, most of them are about to change greatly.
"What the lord said is extremely true, but he is not deep enough to think about it. Be willing to be punished! Li Su hurriedly bowed and admitted his mistake. Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "It's okay." If all of my staff members seem to be enthusiastic about your suggestions, why should I worry about the great cause? ā
As soon as Dong Zhuo said this, the other strategists who didn't dare to speak out were ashamed. At this time, Dong Zhuo set his eyes on Li Ru, who had been smiling, calm, and waiting quietly.
Li Ru understood, his face was shocked, he took a step forward, and arched his hand: "What Li Sima said is correct, Yan Yan is clearly a jackal." But that's why we can take advantage of his ambitions. As long as he becomes the Taishou of Nan'an, with his temperament, he will secretly win over the soldiers and want to form his own faction. And this person's martial arts are extraordinary, known as the first warrior in Xiliang, and his prestige in the army is extremely high, and more importantly, he is more murderous than Ma and Han's generation, but where the forces are together, there will be a bloody storm in Xiliang. In this way, Xiliang will be in chaos, and as long as the lord sends people to guard the two places of Sanguan and Chencang, he will not lose his ability, although he will send troops to the Central Plains! ā
As soon as Li Ru's words came out, the civil and military forces in the hall couldn't help but show surprise, and many people couldn't help but exclaim.
Dong Zhuo heard that Li Ru had no intention of recruiting Yan Xing, but he couldn't help but show a hint of disappointment, and said, "Wen You's plan is excellent. Allocate as you say. ā
"As for that Yan Yanming, the lord doesn't have to be disappointed. This person is by no means the enemy of Ma and Han, if he is frustrated, he only needs to show kindness again, and he will be loyal to reciprocate! Li Ru saw Dong Zhuo's thoughts.
When Dong Zhuo heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and laughed: "Wen You is really my brainstorm!" ā
So Dong Zhuo immediately ordered Li Ru to write an order, and transferred Yan to Nan'an Taishou, and he could take office after receiving the order.
And just when Dong Zhuo wanted to use another trick to set off the bloody storm in Xiliang. However, it is said that the imperial capital Luoyang, between Lihe Luo, lives in the world, and has the majestic atmosphere of the Central Plains, and deserves to be the first imperial capital of the ages!
Let's see that Luoyang City is located in the north of Luoshui, and the north of the water is called 'Yang', so it is called Luoyang. The mountains and rivers in Luoyang are vertical and horizontal, the west is close to the Qinling Mountains, the east is adjacent to Songyue, the north is based on the Wangwu Mountain, and according to the danger of the Yellow River, the south looks at the Funiu Mountain, since ancient times, there is the saying of 'eight guan duyi, eight sides surrounded by mountains, five rivers surround Luocheng', so it has the name of "the river and the mountains arch to wear, and the shape wins the armor in the world".
Such a place of outstanding people, but now it is a miasma of black smoke, dozens of miles outside Luoyang City, there are bones everywhere, most of these people either died of hunger, or died under the knife of nearby bandits.
Once the capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the rule was so panicked, the people had long been cornered by those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, the people were resentful, and the thieves were like locusts. But in Luoyang City, there is still a peaceful and prosperous situation, I don't know how many rich and noble families, singing and singing every night, the place where the wine is merry, laughing, singing and dancing, one after another. All the dignitaries and nobles, during the day, most of them have no intention of going to the morning morning, but at night, they are all in good spirits, sometimes in groups of three or five, looking for joy everywhere, which is better than this long night.
But at this time in the General's Mansion, unlike usual, tonight seems to be particularly quiet. In a pavilion somewhere in the backyard of the house, the outside is heavily guarded, and sentries can be seen everywhere, and the patrol team is endless.
After all, it can be known that in the pavilion, those dozen or so people are either rich or expensive, and the status of a few of them is high, but if it damages half a hair, the entire Luoyang City will be turbulent!
And look at the pavilion, not to mention the splendor, the repair is luxurious, and the carved jade can be seen everywhere. Even the furniture is made of rosewood, the best of the best.
But I saw that the person sitting in the middle had a portrait of a tiger descending from the mountain behind him, which seemed to be a tiger without anger. But if you look at him carefully, he has a horizontal face, thick eyebrows, and a butcher's temperament that can't be concealed, but he has to dress up richly and magnificently, wearing a golden tiger cloud brocade robe, as if he is afraid that others will not know his noble identity.
This person is the general who now commands the world's soldiers and horses in the Han Dynasty - He Jin!
"Hahaha, I summoned you here today, not for anything, just to hear your opinions." He Jin smiled, took out a secret letter from his arms, and looked at a handsome manners, compared to He Jin, but there was a natural noble temperament, I saw that this person was handsome and mighty, quite majestic, gorgeously dressed, seeing He Jin looking over, his expression was shocked, and he quickly caught up with the secret letter, and after returning to his seat, he opened it to see, but the people around him were not in a hurry, and when he saw it, he frowned, and handed it to the man next to him, who looked quite similar to him, but his face was full of arrogance. Immediately afterwards, everyone circulated one after another, and in the end, it was a not tall, dark-skinned, broad-faced and large-forehead, with a pair of small but shining eyes, but at first glance this was extremely ordinary, but for some reason he exuded a momentum that people did not dare to underestimate in the slightest, and from the other deep details, it seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.
Let's say that the first person to receive the letter just now has a great background, this person's name is Yuan Shao, the word is original, and he was born in a powerful official family. From his great-grandfather Yuan An, there were five officials in the fourth generation who worshiped the third duke. Father Yuan Feng, the official worships Sikong. Uncle Yuan Kui, the official worships Situ. Uncle Yuan Cheng, the official worshiped Zuo Zhonglang General, died early. It's just that Yuan Shao, who has such a noble status, has a flaw that he is ashamed of all his life, it turns out that his mother is just a maidservant, so she is just a concubine, and later succeeded Yuan Cheng in a room. But Yuan Shao has been arrogant since he was a child, and his talent is extraordinary, and he is even loved by Yuan Feng and Yuan Kui. With his worldly qualifications, he was young and young, and now he is more deeply appreciated by He Jin, and he is the most outstanding person among the young talents in the world. There are a number of young talents in Luoyang, and there is a faint tendency to lead them.
And the person sitting next to him was his half-brother - Yuan Shu, Yuan Highway. But although Yuan Shu is Yuan Shao's younger brother, the identities of the two cannot be compared. The reason is very simple, Yuan Shu is Yuan Feng's eldest son, and he is the same as Yuan Shao in terms of identity. What's more, Yuan Shao later passed on to Yuan Cheng's room. Nominally, Yuan Shao was nothing more than his cousin. And now the Yuan family is in charge of his father Yuan Feng!
It's just that fate makes people feel that Yuan Shu's identity has not overshadowed Yuan Shao's brilliance. Yuan Shao, who has worked hard since he was a child and strives to be on top, has to work harder and harder than Yuan Shu no matter what he does. It's not that Yuan Shu's talent is necessarily worse than Yuan Shao's, but he always feels that his status is noble, and he doesn't need to work hard like the wild seeds born to servants like Yuan Shao. It was precisely because of Yuan Shu's squeamishness that Yuan Shao was given the opportunity to gradually win the love of Yuan Feng and Yuan Kui. By the time he reacted, Yuan Shao was already a head above him in terms of fame.
It's just that Yuan Shu is Yuan Feng's eldest son after all, and he was quite chivalrous when he was young, and he was good friends with the sons and daughters of all clans. The two brothers now control most of the city's Imperial Guards.
Those who can sit together with the Yuan brothers, the rest are not ordinary people, either celebrities or Chinese martial arts. One of them is the palace guard order in the court, named Xun Yu, the character Wenruo, born in Yingchuan Xun, is after Xunzi. His grandfather, Xun Shu, was well-known in the world and was known as the Divine Monarch. Xun Yu became famous at a young age, and was praised as Wang Zuozhicai by He Hao, a famous scholar in Nanyang.
can be so talented, now in the court is just a small palace order (in charge of the emperor's pen, ink, paper and other items), but it can really be said to be overkill. If it weren't for his grandfather, who was a famous man in the world, he wouldn't have been qualified to sit here.
But I saw that Xun Yu was not smiling, quite rigorous, but there was a bit of pathos hidden in his eyes. The court is mediocre, and the eunuchs of the relatives are in power, which is simply upside down, the king is not like the king, and the minister is not like the minister. And these Gongzi brothers, famous scholars, and Chinese martial artists of the dynasty are all thinking of taking advantage of the chaos of the imperial court to try to compete for the throne and climb the dragon and attach the phoenix.
To tell the truth, if he didn't want to offend He Jin at the beginning, even the world, Xun Yu would not have become a raccoon dog with these people at all, and he rarely spoke, and he was completely outstanding, and because of this, of course, it was also inconspicuous.
But there was one more person who was less conspicuous than him, and that was the dark, short-looking man who sat at the end. This person's name is Cao Cao, the word Mengde, the nickname Aman, his father Cao Song is the adopted son of the eunuch Cao Teng, Cao Teng is a high and powerful position, and he was once an official to the rank of captain. It is precisely because he was a eunuch that Cao Cao was ridiculed since he was a child, and since he thought that Zhang Rang was the leader of the Ten Standing Servants and the chaos of the dynasty, Cao Cao even tasted the cynicism of others. Besides, Cao Cao has a strange personality since he was a child, he is willful, chivalrous, debauched, and does his own thing, but he does not cultivate character and does not study his studies. Cao Song has had a heart since he was a child. One day, Cao Song's friend Qiao Xuan came to visit, and after seeing Cao Cao, he was greatly surprised, and said bluntly that the world will be chaotic, and those who can not help the world, and those who can be safe are none other than this son. He also asked Cao Cao how he ruled the world. Cao Cao replied that if the world is in turmoil, the only way to calm it down is to use force first, and then to govern the people's hearts with politics, eliminate the chaotic party, and consolidate the foundation. But this is not a one-day thing, and if you want to calm the chaos, you will have to live for a lifetime.
Qiao Xuan was shocked, and after leaving, he sent someone to give Cao Cao the art of war at home. Cao Cao is not good at learning, but he likes to read, and by his art of war, he copied the ancient art of war given by Qiao Xuan. Later, Cao Cao raised filial piety and honesty, entered Luoyang as a young man, the Yellow Turban Uprising, Cao Cao worshiped as a cavalry captain, broke the Yellow Turban Army in Yingchuan, and beheaded tens of thousands. Not long ago, Liu Xie set up the eighth lieutenant of the West Garden, because it was set up by the eunuch Xiaohuangmen Jian Shuo, who looked at Cao Cao's family background and intended to win over, so he was appointed as the captain of the military academy.
It's just that although Cao Cao is a eunuch, he is extremely disgusted with the chaos of the world, and on the surface, he is guilty of being a snake, but secretly he throws himself into He Jin's faction. He Jin was suspicious of him, but Yuan Shao strongly recommended him, and he let him join for the sake of Yuan Shao's face.
It is precisely because of Cao Cao's special identity that everyone is already wary of him, and some even secretly despise him. Cao Cao didn't bother to pay attention to it, and his expression was extremely low-key.
After saying that, He Jin couldn't help but be shocked when he saw that everyone had finished reading it, and said with a smile: "I don't know what you think?" ā
As soon as He Jin's voice fell, Yuan Shu's eyes showed disdain, and he got up unhurriedly and said: "It's just a bastard, why should the general care so much." Although the Ma family is after Fubo, but many years ago has already fallen into the middle of the family, the father of Ma Shouyuan, who was once a captain of Tianshui Lan, but because of the demotion of the official, and then married a Qiang girl as a wife, Fubo's bloodline has long been wrong. In my opinion, it is better not to be implicated with him, otherwise it will only cause hostility from the major Han families and the common people. Isn't that more than worth the loss? ā
As Yuan Shu spoke, his eyes glanced at Yuan Shao from time to time, and he said the word mongrel at the beginning. Yuan Shao's face suddenly turned cold, his teeth were clenched, but he didn't speak.
When He Jin heard this, he thought that the Han people had always hated Qiang and Hu, and he also felt that it was reasonable, and after muttering for a while, he bowed his head and said: "What the highway said is indeed quite reasonable. But if Xiliang is in chaos, won't it fuel the momentum of Dong Jackal!? What's more, His Majesty has always intended to use the Ma family to contain Dong Jackal Hu, so as not to send troops to the Central Plains. ā
"The general doesn't have to worry too much. I think Jincheng is too obedient to the Korean covenant, in the early years he was known as a celebrity, and quite popular with the people, why not mention yƬ to His Majesty, promote him to Liangzhou, and then transfer a person from the court to take over the position of Nan'an Taishou! ā
Don't drive is an assassin Shi Zuoguan, with a very high status, and Yuan Shu's implication is to let Han Sui and Dong Zhuo fight against each other, and the incoming Nan'an Taishou is just for the purpose of a puppet, of course, he will secretly monitor Han Sui's every move.
