Chapter 663: Military power must be fought
In the hussar general's mansion, Jia Xu's face was like a thousand years of ice, and he walked without any change, and when the people who came and went saw him, they all bowed and retreated to the hussar general's henchmen.
With Fuquan using two edicts from the new emperor, Shen Hu Prison Pass, Mengjin Port two foreign soldiers, so that after they retreated, among the newly expanded hussar generals, those who were recruited by Fuquan from other places, who had not heard of Jia Xu's reputation and did not know Jia Xu's resourcefulness, no one dared to ignore this extremely low-key Jia Xu.
Soon, when he arrived outside the hall of the Hussar General's Mansion, Jia Xu saw the dissatisfied Zhongchang attendant Jian Shuo, who seemed to leave the hall with some anger, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Although relatives and eunuchs have been fighting each other since ancient times, it is also the time to see that when China and North Korea are huge, these two will naturally continue to compete for power. However, now that the power of the foreign party members and scholars has just been suppressed by China and North Korea, and the Kwantung coalition army and the foreign soldiers of the state who have a close relationship with He Jin and Yuan Shao have just withdrawn, Jia Xu is a little confused for a while, as one of the eunuchs in the palace, why should he be angry with Fuquan, the head of the foreign relatives, at this time?
If the two of them are at odds with each other because of this, or even fight politically afterwards, it is not a self-inflicted damage to the strength of China and North Korea, and if the remaining party members and scholars in the foreign DPRK see the opportunity to carry out a political counterattack, for them, isn't this lifting a stone to shoot themselves in the foot?
When Jian Shuo and Jia Xu met, Jia Xu hurriedly saluted Jian Shuo, the great eunuch, but the other party didn't seem to see Jia Xu, the henchman of the hussar general Fu Quan, and passed by Jia Xu as a deaf ear, without giving any face to say hello.
This time, it directly made Jia Xu's cold eyes reveal a keen light, he knew that between Fu Quan and Jian Shuo, something must have happened, and it was definitely not small, but what happened, this matter had to be discussed with Fu Quan.
After reporting to the soldiers in the lobby, Jia Xu only waited for a moment before he was invited in by the soldiers, in fact, with Jia Xu's current identity, Fu Quan had already ordered that if Fu Quan did not have a visitor, Jia Xu could directly enter the lobby to see him.
It's just that Jia Xu, who is low-key by nature, even if Fuquan is in front of him, he doesn't need him to ask to see him, and he waits for hardships outside, but Jia Xu, who is cautious and low-key by nature, never does this.
Fuquan in the lobby, after Jian Shuo left, wrote that he continued to recommend the list of new court officials to the court that he had not finished, and waited until Jia Xu entered the interior to salute, and then put down his pen.
Seeing Jia Xu's appearance, Fu Quan reminded and ordered again: "Wenhe, if you enter the mansion in the future, you can enter directly when no one is around, there is no need to do this." β
However, what answered him was Jia Xu's face without saying a word and without any expression. In this regard, Fu Quan can only laugh secretly in his heart, this is Jia Xu, even if he has made countless meritorious contributions, he is still not proud of his achievements, low-key as if there is no such person, it can be said that he is well versed in the essence of self-preservation, and he can mix well under anyone, and he can mix well.
Think about it carefully, in real history, Jia Xu took refuge in Cao Cao, knowing that he was not Cao Cao's former minister, but he had a deep plan and a unique strategy, which was easy to arouse Cao Cao's suspicion and suspicion, and because of Mu Xiu in the forest, it caused the jealousy and targeting of Cao's former ministers.
Therefore, Jia Xu adopted a self-preservation strategy, kept to himself, did not associate with others in private, and did not marry the powerful when his children married, and even when he offered advice to Cao Cao and Cao Pi, he would not be the first person to take the initiative, and he would not be the first among the Cao courtiers, and he would not be the first to come out, so that the people of the world at that time respected him very much when talking about wise and resourceful people, which was very famous at the same time, and was also deeply reused by Cao's father and son, and there was no big trouble because he was jealous of others.
If it weren't for the fact that there were relatively few dynastic changes in the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, it would be difficult to compare Jia Xu's political ability.
Today, Fuquan summoned Jia Xu, not for other things, but to discuss with him how to arrange party henchmen in the court, although when Liu Chong ascended the throne before, Fuquan arranged a lot of people, but there was no one around that time, and he arranged it in a hurry, basically just to install various key positions.
Many relatively small but very important positions are still vacant, and because some official positions are reserved for their own people, some are reserved for the Empress Dowager of the Song Dynasty and eunuchs, and some are for the sake of wooing, those party members and scholars who have abandoned the old master and newly defected to him...... These things are very cumbersome, and there is no certain political experience, in fact, it is not easy to control the degree allocated to the real forces, that is, Fu Quan himself was also arranged by those official positions, which caused a headache, this time Jia Xu came, with his excellent political experience, and keen insight and judgment of the individual, Fu Quan believes that Jia Xu will definitely arrange it for him.
The placement of Fuquan's subordinate ministers, as well as people who lived in Chang'an and were related to Fuquan, entered the court, and constantly used inconspicuous but powerful official positions to enter the center of the court, which laid the foundation for Fuquan to control the government in the future, and its importance is beyond necessity.
After all, if Fuquan wants the court to listen to his own, the three princes and nine qing, these high-ranking officials of a thousand stones, must have henchmen to speak for him in the court, and similarly, those ordinary officials who are not high in the court must also have someone to support him and speak for him, and the political forces must also be clearly organized, otherwise it will be a plate of scattered sand.
Jia Xu naturally expected Fu Quan to summon him, so he didn't feel anything wrong, but thinking of Jian Shuo's expression when he left the Hussar General's Mansion, Jia Xu felt uneasy, could it be that Jian Shuo wanted to arrange his own people to ask Fu Quan, and Fu Quan refused, so he would be so angry, right?
Thinking of this, Jia Xu hurriedly said: "When the right time comes, I see that the Hussar is angry and leaves, if the official position of the court is vacant, the person recommended by the Hussar does not conform to the hussar's mind and refuses, so that the Hussar and the Hussar have grievances, and the Hussar takes the overall situation as the priority, at this time, it is not a good time to have a bad relationship with the temple people!" β
As a courtier, Jia Xu knew that he had to remind Fu Quan at this time, even if it would violate his principle of keeping a low profile and not being the first, but he had to do it.
However, to Jia Xu's surprise, Fu Quan in front of him shook his head and denied: "Lonely and Jian Shuo have grievances, it's not about this." β
Jia Xu looked surprised, and hurriedly asked: "Dare to ask the general, why do you have a grudge between the talented general and Jian Shuo?" β
"Without it, it's all because of the West Garden soldiers!"
Hearing this, Jia Xu's heart suddenly moved, and he thought about it carefully, what Fu Quan said was brief, but Jia Xu knew that it was not simple. He remembered that at that time, Fu Quan had just taken control of the Beijing division of Luoyang, and his henchmen were short of soldiers and horses, so he moved Jian Shuo's subordinates out of Luoyang City, and divided them into two roads to help the defenders who originally guarded Tiger Prison Pass and Mengjin Port to defend the city, so as to transfer all the soldiers and horses of Jian Shuo in Luoyang City.
Now, Jian Shuo and Fu Quan are at odds, in Jia Xu's view, I am afraid that it is because after those Xiyuan soldiers were transferred, Fu Quan did not want to return these Xiyuan soldiers to Jian Shuo at all, but after the 20,000 elite soldiers in Liangzhou arrived in Beijing, a new Xiyuan Army was re-established with Liangzhou soldiers as the main force for Jian Shuo to drive and command.
Of course, not only the Xiyuan soldiers, but at this moment, most of the palace gate forbidden troops, even the Tiger Ben Army, the Yulin Army, etc., have also been replaced by Fuquan one by one.
However, compared to the Xiyuan soldiers, there is no doubt that against other armies, Fuquan's methods are milder, after all, for the Xiyuan army, Fuquan has been completely replaced, and not a single old department is left, as for the reason, isn't he afraid of eunuchs?
In fact, originally Fuquan was also prepared to replace all the soldiers and horses in the capital division of Luoyangli, except for the northern and southern armies stationed outside Luoyang City, with his people, but in the end it was not implemented.
First, Fu Quan was afraid that it would really arouse the jealousy of the courtiers and the palace, and second, because he was not enough soldiers, so he could only give up this plan, and then only replace the main force of Jian Shuo's Xiyuan, completely cut off its foundation in the palace and eliminate a hidden danger.
Having said that, originally, Jian Shuo initially took over the new army, and he didn't really care about the new Xiyuan soldiers and horses, after all, these people were nominally his subordinates, and they could only listen to his orders. Moreover, these soldiers are all from the Liangzhou Army, and their combat power is naturally not bad, and Fuquan is recruited according to the standard of the number of soldiers, and the number and strength of the Xiyuan soldiers have not decreased because of the previous coup d'Γ©tat in Luoyang, which naturally made Jian Shuo very satisfied at the beginning.
However, as time went by, Jian Shuo also discovered the problem of these newly recruited Xiyuan soldiers, not that these Xiyuan soldiers sent by the imperial court were not good, but because those Xiyuan soldiers were only nominally loyal to him many times, but behind the scenes, they were all loyal to Fuquan, how could this make Jian Shuo tolerate?
In other words, between Fuquan and Jian Shuo, the first reaction of those Xiyuan soldiers was to listen to Fu Quan, not him.
In this case, it is not up to Jian Shuo to come to the Hussar General's Mansion in person, and ask Fu Quan to exchange for the soldiers and horses that originally belonged to him, even if the original soldiers and horses are much worse than the current ones in terms of number and strength, but at the very least, the original soldiers and horses will have many people who are loyal to him, and they will not be set aside like now.
Even if there are many people in the original Xiyuan soldiers, they are also the first rats at both ends, and even the shadows arranged by He Jin and Yuan Shao by his side, but now that their eunuchs and Song and Fu relatives are in power, there will definitely be many people in those Xiyuan soldiers who are used by him, so for the current Jianshuo, in order not to be overlooked, he must fight for those old Xiyuan soldiers.
Although Jian Shuo and these eunuchs have a good relationship with Fuquan because of the Empress Dowager Song, which eunuch has to say that they will be able to get along with their relatives for a long time?
Now, Fuquan directly used the problem of foreign troops in Tiger Prison Pass and Mengjin Port to directly put Jian Shuo in the air, which of course attracted Jian Shuo to fight with him for the sake of power.
However, it is obvious that Fu Quan will not let Jian Shuo get his wish easily, even if he will have a bad relationship with Jian Shuo, the current eunuch, when the current situation is not stable, causing the relationship between him and the palace to deteriorate, it will not hesitate.
knows very well that in the entire history of the Later Han Dynasty, Fuquan, who has been fighting with each other in the court for so many years between relatives, eunuchs, scholars and imperial power, will not forget how those relatives who have controlled the power of the court and government for generations were finally wiped out by the dead clan.
Don't mention it from afar, let's just say how He Jin and Dong Zhuo, the two relatives of the government and the opposition, died at the end of the Han Dynasty, and even the lessons of Cao Cao, who later came to power, are all for him to remember, so he must firmly grasp the thing of military power.
All in all, even if one day, he loses power in the government and the opposition, at that time he can fight for nothing and don't want anything, but the military power, this is what he must firmly grasp, even if it is just a small Praetorian Guard, it must be his talent, who knows if one day, when he enters the palace, he will be killed by some palace guards from the shadows, and finally killed.
You know, in the palace coup of the Han family, everything is possible, didn't the original Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty make a plan with a few eunuchs when he was going to the toilet, and then destroy the indispensable general Liang Ji? There are some things that Fuquan has to guard against, even if they have a good relationship between the Langya Fu clan and the Song clan of Pingling in Youfufeng, and they are the primary contributors to the accession of the little emperor Liu Chong to the throne, but no one knows what will happen in the future?
After all, the right is the most elusive, think about it, isn't the original general Liang Ji also an important promoter of Emperor Han Huan's accession to the throne? However, isn't the final ending of Liang Ji and his family as unpredictable?
Finally, he took advantage of the changes in Luoyang, and when Jian Shuo was still focusing on the foreign soldiers, he didn't let Jian Shuo and everyone in the palace notice it, and replaced the guards in the West Garden with a suitable reason, so that Fu Quan was not afraid to enter the palace today.
Now, if you want him to hand over the power of guarding the palace gate, which is undoubtedly a fool's dream, in short, this matter, for Fu Quan, is not discussed at all, it is no wonder that Jian Shuo Baba rushed to lobby, but in the end he left angrily.
After thinking about the cause and effect of the matter, Jia Xu didn't mention it, because he knew that there was no solution to this matter, and Fu Quan would definitely not be able to give up military power in order to save himself.
In the same way, the same is true for eunuchs, even if Jian Shuo has poor political means, but after so much experience, he naturally knows the importance of military power, of course, he must strive for it, and neither of the two sides can take a step back, how can there be a solution?
In his heart, Jia Xu couldn't help but pray secretly for Jian Shuo, the loyal servant of the Liu Han royal family, but hoped that Jian Shuo could bear it, he knew that Fu Quan did not have the intention of usurping the throne, if Jian Shuo protected the safety of the Liu Han royal family with peace of mind, Fu Quan would definitely not harm them like He Jin and Dou Wu.
Otherwise, something went wrong, Jia Xu really didn't dare to think about it, how would he act at that time when he was holding on to Fuquan, who was clinging to the military power?
