Chapter Seventy-Four: Retreat as Advance

Originally, I wanted to see the faces of Yuan Kui and others after their plans failed, but who knew that a few people were calm and unlikely, which made He Jin feel bored with himself, so he didn't pay attention to it, went straight to the palace, and said in a sad state: "Your Majesty died in Changle Palace last night, which is really the death of my great man!" ”

"Your Majesty~"

When a group of ministers heard this, they choked with sorrow one by one, tears flowed, and even Yuan Kui fainted to the ground crying there, Rao is He Jin was already mentally prepared, and he was also a little uncomfortable by this scene, especially Yuan Kui who fainted in the past, if he didn't know that Liu Hong's death was closely related to him, He Jin almost believed that he was a loyal minister of the Han family, and if he originally came to his mouth, he could only swallow it back in embarrassment, and everyone cried almost.

It's just that a quarter of an hour has passed, and the crying of these ministers not only did not stop, but there was a tendency to intensify, He Jin rubbed his temples with a headache, coughed lightly, not only did the crying not stop, but it was a little bigger, He Jin had to cough heavily, and a group of ministers gradually stopped.

"Your Majesty has died, needless to say, we have grieved in our hearts, and I summoned you to come today, first, to discuss Your Majesty's funeral with you, and second, to ......?"

He Jin's gaze swept over the courtiers of the Manchu court, and said in a deep voice: "The country cannot be without a king for a day, if it is in turmoil today, the position of the Son of Heaven should not be vacant. ”

When the ministers heard this, they gradually stopped their voices, and no one spoke, after all, at this time, they usually have to stand in line, and a wrong step represents the future of the future.

Yuan Shao glanced at Yuan Kui who had fainted to the ground a little speechlessly, Yuan Kui fainted, and the decision of the scholar class fell on him, although the official position was not enough, but at this moment above the court, in addition to Yuan Kui, he was the representative of the Yuan family, and his statement at this time was very important.

"General!" After pondering for a while, Yuan Shao took a step forward and bowed down and said: "The minister thinks that Prince Xie is smart, but he is too young, I am afraid that it will be difficult to be a big responsibility, the prince is pure by nature, has the wind of benevolence, and is the elder. ”

When He Jin heard this, he glanced at Yuan Shao in surprise, this is not the same as what Xi Zhicai said!

"The minister seconded the proposal!" Wang Yun followed and took a step forward and bowed.

"The minister seconded the proposal!" With Yuan Shao and Wang Yun expressing their positions one after another, some ministers have come forward one after another to second, in fact, with the current situation in the court, it doesn't matter much who is the emperor, whether it is Liu Wei or Liu Xie, after ascending the throne, it is difficult to escape the fate of being controlled, the difference is only who is controlled.

Needless to say, once Liu Wei ascends the throne, He Jin's power will swell to the extreme, without Liu Hong's constraints, the new emperor is his nephew, and there is no one in the palace to respond, in the next few years, He Jin's position will be unshakable.

If Liu Xie is set up as the emperor, it will not hurt, Liu Xie will stand with the scholars in order to fight against He Jin, forming a trend of resistance, many people thought that the Yuan family would support Liu Xie's accession to the throne at first, but aside from Yuan Shao and a few other people, no one would have thought that the Yuan family would compromise on this matter, and there was also a quick reaction to think of what He Jin said before to collect the new army, and now this Xiyuan new army has fallen into the hands of He Jin, plus Ye Zhao led his troops to leave Luoyang, and almost all the soldiers and horses in Luoyang City are in the hands of He Jin. Yuan Shao and the others obviously knew that they couldn't do anything, so they reversed the direction of the wind.

It's just as Yuan Shao worried, he is not Yuan Kui after all, in this court, although he can represent the Yuan family, but after all, he does not have Yuan Kui's appeal that responds to all calls, many people do not blindly follow the trend, but choose to wait and see in silence, but even so, most of the people in the DPRK support and support Liu Bian's accession to the throne can be said to be expected.

The next thing, it's easy to do, the Son of Heaven died, there has been a set of processes since ancient times, just follow the steps, two days later, Liu Wei was surrounded by He Hou and He Jin, ascended the throne and became the emperor, and changed Yuan Guangxi.

"That's the way it is." Tiger Prison Pass, in Ye Zhao's temporary mansion, Zhang Yue told Ye Zhao in detail what had happened in the past few days.

"This Yuan Kui is decisive, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he immediately turned around." After Ye Zhao signaled Zhang Yue to retreat, he looked at Xi Zhicai beside him and said with a smile: "Now that He Jin is the dominant family in Luoyang City, it seems that I should also leave." ”

"The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, the lord wants to withdraw now, I am afraid that Yuan Kui will not agree." Xi Zhicai looked at Ye Zhao and shook his head and smiled.

"Hey~" Ye Zhao shook his head helplessly and smiled: "The princess has been secretly sent to Hanoi, if they want to continue playing, General Ben doesn't mind making the world more chaotic." ”

Xi Zhicai nodded silently, now with the fall of Liu Hong, it is difficult for the Han family to recover, at this time to stir up the situation, Ye Zhao can take advantage of the situation: "If the sky wants to die, it will make it crazy, now the general has the power to the government and the opposition, if the lord can add another fire at this time, then the day of He Jin's defeat is not far away!" ”

"That's exactly what I mean." Ye Zhaoyi clapped his hands and smiled.

He Jin has been jumping for a long time, and the most important thing is that the roots of this thing are too soft, and Xi Zhi has only helped him Shen Ming twice, but Yuan Kui still has a way to convince him again, and now he has something in his hands that He Jin is afraid of, and I am afraid that it will not be long before he will be provoked to deal with him again.

When Liu Hong was there before, he needed He Jin to contain all forces, but now there is no need for this, such an unstable factor is a bit of an eyesore, it's time to get rid of it, but the person who did it can't be himself.

"Zhicai, I want you to go to Luoyang again, inform He Jin, and say that I occasionally feel cold, unwell, and unsuitable for leading troops again, and ask him to send someone to take over the position of this guard lieutenant and Si Li's lieutenant, and allow me to return to my hometown to recuperate, but this time, I want to see how Yuan Kui's old man takes over." Ye Zhao said with a smile.

"My subordinates will do it." Xi Zhicai smiled slightly and bowed to leave.

"Lord, do you really want to hand over this guard captain and the captain of Si Li?" Watching the drama before leaving, Guan Hai, who was standing behind Ye Zhao, finally couldn't help but ask, he heard the conversation between the two before, but the final decision was understood, and he was a little worried: "In this way, we don't have any military power in our hands." ”

"Have I handed over the military power now?" Ye Zhao glanced back at Guan Hai and asked with a smile.

"Not yet, but as soon as Mr. Drama goes, then He Jin will definitely send someone to take over the Tiger Prison, how should I deal with myself then?" Guan Hai was puzzled.

"If someone doesn't want me to call out all the troops, they will definitely stop it, this back and ......forth" Ye Zhao stood up and patted Guan Hai's shoulder and smiled: "He Jin's life is almost over." ”

Guan Hai looked at Ye Zhao's departing back with a blank face, a little confused, it turns out that some people are not naturally suitable for using their brains, Ye Zhao has now given up cultivating his old subordinate into a figure with both civil and military skills, it is enough to be able to make achievements in the way of a general, and Ye Zhao really has no extravagant hopes for the rest.

Three days later, Luoyang, Jiade Palace, early dynasty.

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Yuting heard that the first emperor had died, and he became ill in the past few days, and he occasionally felt the wind and cold, and he was already ill, and he could no longer bear the heavy responsibilities of the imperial court, so he sent his ministers to ask His Majesty to resign, and asked His Majesty to take back the positions of Wei Wei, Si Li, and Henan Yin, and allow him to return to his hometown to recuperate." Xi Zhicai stood on top of the court and bowed to Liu Wei.

"Ye Qing is sick!?" When Liu Wei heard this, he couldn't help but exclaim, "I can send the imperial doctor to inquire." ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured, I have already asked a famous doctor for consultation, this is a heart disease, because of worry, the medicine stone is ineffective, and you need to recuperate." Xi Zhicai bowed down.

"Ye Qing is a loyal minister in front of his father, he is quite relied on by his father, and Yu I am also quite kind, and now that my father is gone, I am very sad, if Ye Qing is also ...... I really don't know what to do. Liu Wei said a little sadly, although he didn't really worship Ye Zhao as a teacher, but if it weren't for Ye Zhao, he would probably tremble even if he sat here at this time, from Ye Zhao, he really learned a lot, and he was also quite close to Ye Zhao, and even kissed his uncle He Jin.

He Jin frowned, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, since the Marquis of Yuting is seriously ill, it is better to take back the official position of the Marquis of Yuting according to his request, and add his title to let him return to his hometown to recuperate, and when he is well, it is not too late to recruit him back to the court." ”

Ye Zhao knew each other and handed back the military power, He Jin was very satisfied, as for Xi Zhicai, Ye Zhao said that Ye Zhao was sick because of the death of the emperor, and after seeing Yuan Kui's performance in the court that day, He Jin didn't believe a word.

"This ......" Liu Wei was a little reluctant, but he also felt that what He Jin said was reasonable, after all, this was also what Ye Zhao meant.

"Your Majesty!" Yuan Kui stood up, bowed down and said: "Yuting Hou is the pillar of the country, on the day of his reign, whether it is for Luoyang Ling or for Weiwei, he has made good achievements, and now he rashly retracts his official position...... The position of He/Nanyin can be withdrawn, as for other official positions, it can still be held by Yu Tinghou, so that he can recuperate in the Tiger Prison, Luoyang has Tai Hospital on the side, if Yu Tinghou's condition deteriorates, he can also send someone to treat it in time. ”

"What Taifu said also makes sense." When Liu Wei heard this, he couldn't help but agree, he was quite close to Ye Zhao, and Ye Zhao was still his brother-in-law, in Liu Wei's heart, Ye Zhao was naturally his own family.

"Wei Wei, Si Li's school captain, are all important positions in Luoyang, and now Yu Tinghou doesn't know when he will recover, aren't these two people deserted?" He Jin frowned.

"The general's words are ...... bad"

Although Yuan Kui and others made a compromise on the issue of the new emperor, but at this moment, once Ye Zhao retreated, all the soldiers and horses of Si Li would be in the hands of He Jin, but this step must not be allowed, for a while, Yuan Kui, who should have been regarded as an enemy and wanted to kill the other party a few days ago, was trying his best to keep Ye Zhao's official position, and he Jin argued with reason, and he couldn't fight for a reason, so that all the people in the court who knew the relationship between the two sides were dumbfounded, shouldn't this be transferred?
