In the inner courtyard of the palace, in the secret room of a certain house, there are more than a dozen people sitting around at the moment, discussing.

"Now that Your Majesty is seriously ill, Butcher He has sent his henchmen to recruit troops in various places, but our grandfather is isolated, how is this good?"

The voice of the person who spoke was very sharp, like a male duck, his face seemed to be smeared with rouge powder, and the cheeks of the monkey with a sharp beak were unappetizing.

The ten permanent servants manipulated the imperial court power during the time of Emperor Ling of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and they were Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Xia Yun, Guo Sheng, Sun Zhang, Bi Lan, Li Song, Duan Qi, Gao Wang, Zhang Gong, Han Kui, Song Dian and other twelve eunuchs. Its leaders were Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong.

Zhang Rang and others played Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty in the palm of their hands, so that Emperor Ling said, "Zhang Changshi is my father, and Zhao Changshi is my mother." Their fathers, brothers, and children are all over the world, rampant in the countryside, harming the people, and no official dares to manage them. Unable to bear the exploitation and oppression, the people rose up to resist. Only some more sober officials had seen the darkness and corruption of the eunuch power, which led to a large-scale peasant rebellion.

Zhang Jun of Langzhong once clearly pointed out in his recital to Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty that the Yellow Turban Rebellion was forced out by the eunuch dictatorship, and he said: "Zhang Jiao was able to raise troops and rebels, and thousands of people were willing to follow him, and the root cause was in the Ten Standing Servants, who put their fathers, brothers, children, relatives, and guests into various states and counties, monopolized financial interests, and plundered the people, and the people's grievances had nowhere to appeal, so they plotted against him and accumulated to become thieves." The Ten Servants should be killed and their heads hung in the southern suburbs to plead guilty to the common people. Then send an envoy to announce to the world, so that there is no need to use troops, and the great Kou will dissipate.

However, the confused Emperor Ling of Han listened to the words of Zhang Rang and others, and concluded that Zhang Jun had framed the Ten Standing Servants, dismissed him from his official position for the crime of 'bullying the master', and blasted out of the court.

Naturally, the Ten Standing Servants would not let go of this opportunity to beat the 'water dogs', and framed Zhang Junxue Yellow Turban Dao, and when he was taken into prison, he was executed in prison.

"Don't panic, our grandfathers have been waiting for Your Majesty for so many years, inside and outside the palace, as long as our grandfathers work together and stomp their feet, the whole world will tremble for it, not to mention that Jian Shuojian also has the heart to get rid of He Jin, we just need to unite with him, why not be afraid of him as a butcher."

The man sat bent in front of the crowd, facing the crowd, and gently flicked the incense burner in front of him, and the smoke immediately wafted out. This person is the first of the ten permanent attendants.

"Our masters, just ...... Butcher He" wanted to make a gesture with his hand on his neck, and the meaning was self-evident.

"This ......"

"Hiss......"

Everyone gasped, and their hearts suddenly hesitated, only to listen to Zhang Rang continue.

"Once Your Majesty dies, we will lose our backer, He Butcher's group of subordinates, which does not want to swallow our family alive, if we want to continue to enjoy this glory and wealth, the only way to find a new backer, Your Majesty has always disliked Liu Wei, thinking that his demeanor is frivolous, without the majesty of the emperor, and Liu Xie, the prince born to Wang Meiren, behaves dignified and is deeply loved by His Majesty. We only need to do our best to assist the prince Liu Xie to ascend the throne, won't we be able to enjoy all the glory and wealth again? ”

"yes......"

"Yes, let the public speak ...... reasonable"

"Mm-hmm, that's a good thing to say......"

When the eunuchs heard Zhang Rang's words, they all felt that it was very reasonable.

"I just don't know what to do...... Who? ”

Zhao Zhong, who was sitting on Zhang Rang's left hand, was about to open his mouth to ask how to assist Liu Xie to ascend the throne, when he suddenly noticed that a figure flashed outside the house.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and immediately rushed out, and when they rushed out, there was still half a figure there. Everyone secretly screamed in their hearts, it seems that tonight's conspiracy has been overheard, and He Jin will definitely be on guard.

Now that the matter has been leaked, the only way to do it is to get the result as soon as possible.

Zhang Rang's eyes suddenly became gloomy, and suddenly a famous eunuch hurriedly ran over and whispered a word in Zhang Rang's ear.

Zhang Rang seemed to have been struck by lightning, and stood still for a long time.

"Your Majesty has died......"

Slowly spit out five words in his mouth, as if the strength of his body had been drained, it was not that Zhang Rang was loyal, but that his big backer had suddenly fallen, and the future of himself and others was uncertain.

"Immediately send someone to give a gift to the Empress Dowager He and beg her to intercede......"

A faint light flashed in Zhang Rang's eyes, and a glimmer of life depended on whether he could catch it.

"Immediately inform the government and the opposition of His Majesty when he died, divert He Jin's attention, and buy more time for our masters......"

Zhang Rang is worthy of being an old fritter who can play with Emperor Han Ling in the palm of his hand.

……

When the general He Jin heard that Zhang Rang and other eunuchs were plotting to kill him, he was immediately furious.

Immediately send people to summon Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others to come to discuss.

As soon as everyone sat down, the news of Emperor Han Ling's death came out of the court, and Zhang Rang and the others had to put aside first, because there were bigger things waiting for him to do.

Help his nephew Liu Biao to ascend to the throne, as long as Liu Biao ascends the throne, then he will be the uncle of the country, and he is the general who holds the world's soldiers and horses.

On the evening of April 11, 189, Emperor Ling of Han died.

That night, he was entrusted by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty to kill He Jin first and set Liu Xie as the emperor. He sent someone to pick up He Jin and said that he wanted to discuss with him about His Majesty's state funeral, and He Jin immediately took a car to go. However, what Jian Shuo never expected was that his subordinate Sima had already had a friendship with He Jin, and when he greeted He Jin, he signaled with his eyes that He Jin was in danger. He Jin was shocked, galloped back to the military camp under his control, and led the army to enter the official residence in the capital, claiming that he was sick and would no longer enter the palace.

Until April 13, He Jin supported the throne of the emperor's son Liu Bi, who was the young emperor of the Han Dynasty. At that time, Liu Wei was only 14 years old. Respect her mother, Empress He, as the queen mother. Empress Dowager He presided over the government and granted amnesty to the world. The real power fell into the hands of He Jin.

He Jin has already grasped the power of the court, resents Jian Shuo for wanting to kill him, and secretly plans to kill him. His lieutenant Yuan Shao persuaded He Jin to wipe out all the eunuchs.

But the Empress Dowager He did not allow He Jin to wipe out all the eunuchs, and He Jin could not disobey the Empress Dowager's will, and planned to kill the most domineering eunuch for the time being. Yuan Shao believed that the eunuchs were closest to the empress dowager and the emperor, and the recitals of the hundred officials and the emperor's edicts were passed back and forth by them.

Who knew that Zhang Rang and others' 'work' was quite in place, and even Empress Dowager He's mother Wu Yangjun and younger brother He Miao accepted bribes from Zhang Rang and others many times, knowing that He Jin wanted to eliminate the eunuchs, and repeatedly told Empress Dowager He to stop them, and said: "The general killed the left and right ministers without authorization, dictated and weakened the country." Empress Dowager He had doubts in her heart and thought that their words were reasonable. In addition, He Jin has recently grasped the power, and he feels that it is not appropriate to make a big move, although he is envious of getting rid of the reputation of the eunuch, but he can't make a decision in his heart, so the matter is delayed and cannot be decided for a long time.

The next period of time is destined to be extraordinary.
