Chapter 122: The Empress Dowager issued an order
After supporting Liu Xie, Li Ru persuaded Dong Zhuo to abolish the party and requisition the party, and after a while, Dong Zhuo was resentful to find that Jin Liang had preemptively persuaded the Empress Dowager He to do this. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Li Ru was helpless, so he had to persuade Dong Zhuo to use celebrities to gain popularity. After a while, Dong Zhuo was resentful again to find that Jin Liang had finished this matter in advance, leaving him with only a handful of celebrities, and most of them were nominal people, and their actual influence was far inferior to that recruited by Jin Liang.
At Dong Zhuo's resentful and disappointed joints, the general Hu Jin came to report: "Sikong Liu Hong, Guanglu Doctor Ma Rizhuo, Shangshu Zheng Tai, Weiwei Yang Biao, and Taifu Huang Wan, the ministers who are good friends with Lu Zhi, have empty homes, and their families have all fled Luoyang. β
Dong Zhuo's eyes widened: "What are you talking about!" Sikong Liu Hong, Guanglu Doctor Ma Ritan, Shangshu Zheng Tai, Weiwei Yang Biao, and Taifu Huang Yu all ran away! β
Dong Zhuo glanced at the ministers in the audience, except for Taifu Yuan Tunnel and Henan Yin Wang, most of the other ministers relied on the wine bags and rice bags of their family backgrounds, how could such a lineup be able to compete with the Hancheng regime?! Dong Zhuo was so angry that he didn't think about anything, and when he saw a palace maid who looked a little beautiful, he forcibly hugged him, pulled him directly to the dragon bed, and vented his depressed anger first, because Dong Zhuo was very fat and pressed on the thin palace maid, after a long time, when he was comfortable, the palace maid was so angry that she died, her face was blue, her tongue was exposed, her eyes were white, and she didn't blink her eyes. Dong Zhuolian screamed bad luck and fled the palace in fear. Liu Xie, the son of heaven who was erected by Dong Zhuo, stood not far away, looking at Dong Zhuo's back in a hurry, with a little thought in his eyes. Although Liu Xie is young, he is already very sensible. knew that his brother Liu Wei and stepmother Empress Dowager He abandoned him. also took a complete look at the ugliness of Dong Zhuo and Yuan Tunnel. As a young man, he had learned early to hide his joys, sorrows, and sorrows in his heart, and no matter what happened, his expression was always so calm. Gou Or, Gou You, Zhong Zhen, and Hua Xin, who refused Jin Liang's recruitment, had a disagreement, Gou Or and Hua Xin said that they were sick and returned to their hometowns, and Gou Yu wanted to unite with the Northern Army Hou He Yu, Shi Zhong Heji, and Chengmen Captain Wu Qiong to assassinate Dong Zhuo, while Zhong Que stayed in the court with an attitude of waiting and seeing.
Wu Yuan just talked about a series of farces that happened in Luoyang City, and the details were made up by Lu Bu according to the historical facts, and countless scenes that made Jin Liang laugh came to mind, so that Dong Fatzi and Yuan puppet old ghosts were really happy in their conscience. Subsequently, Jin Liang summoned Chen Lin, Guo Jia and Han Hao to discuss a strategy to deal with Dong Zhuo's false edict. Jin Liang and his advisers are in view of the current situation. came up with a number of countermeasures, and then summoned Lu Zhi, Huang Wan, Yang Biao, Ma Rijiao, Liu Hong, Zheng Tai and others to discuss.
Although Dong Zhuoli and Liu Xie were all in everyone's opinion, when they heard the news, these loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty could not help but cry. Then when they heard the ugliness of Dong Zhuo and Yuan Yuan when they abolished the emperor, everyone clapped their hands and laughed, and even praised Jin Liang's clever strategy. When they heard that Dong Zhuo was going to announce that Jin Liang and others were holding the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven hostage in accordance with Li Ru's strategy, and ordered the whole world to discuss it, these ministers were excited: "The thief shouts to catch the thief!" How could this Dong Zhuo be so shameless just to avoid him from abolishing the establishment, so he escorted east to Xiangyang, but he was bitten by him first. It's really annoying and hateful! β
Lu Zhi laughed and said, "Everyone. Don't be angry, we have to think about how to restrain his pseudo-edict? "All the ministers are in a state of flux
Jin Liang has long been confident. smiled and said: "I have three strategies to turn Dong Zhuo's false edict into invisible!" β
The ministers hurriedly said: "Please Xianting tell me in detail." β
Jin Liang said with a smile: "The first plan is very simple, in the blink of an eye we support the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother to go to Xiangyang and the Son of Heaven is the son of the first emperor according to the etiquette, the Son of Heaven is justified in his name and succeeded to the throne, and Liu Xie is the rebel Dong Zhuo The name is not right, we will declare that we are Zhengshuo, Luoyang is a puppet regime, we abolish the official positions of Dong Zhuo, Yuan Yuan and all the thieves in the Luoyang court, and declare that only when they come to Hancheng can they recognize their official positions, so that we will preemptively occupy the height of justice and seek hypocrisy. The name is right. β
The ministers nodded one after another, they cared about etiquette and name, and they paid attention to "justification" in everything they did, and said: "This strategy is very feasible, you should do it quickly, what about your second plan?" β
Jin Liang stood up, picked up a map of the Great Han, spread it out in front of everyone, and then pointed to the Sili area: "The second strategy is to weaken the sphere of influence of Dong Thief." Dong Thief has occupied Luoyang City, and the surrounding area of Luoyang cannot be called Si Li, but Jingzhou can be called Si Li. I suggest that only Luoyang City be left to Dong Zhuo, and all the other counties and counties should be assigned to other states, and let those state pastors and state assassins send troops to recover those counties, such as Hedong County was assigned to the merged state, Hanoi County was assigned to Sizhou, Jingzhao, Zuo Fengyi, and Right Fufeng were assigned to Liangzhou, Hongnong County and Henan County were assigned to Jingzhou, and Jingzhou was then merged with the East County, which was transferred to the Sili area because the Son of Heaven was sage......
Lu Zhi laughed loudly and said: "This plan is very good, just like Feng Xian's previous deal with Yuan's protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials, it is a plan to draw salaries from the bottom of the tea. Since Hedong is temporarily divided into the prefecture, I suggest that Zhu Jun should lead the prefecture, and I must stay in Xiangyang due to illness, so that I can teach you Confucianism and the art of war, and second, I can assist the young son of heaven. β
Jin Liang nodded: "This is very good, the teacher's body is indeed not suitable to go to Bingzhou, he must be raised in Xiangyang and wait for the arrival of the divine doctor Hua Tuo." β
Huang Xian asked, "Xianting, what about the third strategy?" β
Jin Liang smiled and said, "Since my teacher is willing to stay in Handcheng, then my third plan can be implemented smoothly." Yuan Yin followed the rebel minister Dong Zhuo to abolish the Son of Heaven and replace Liu Xie, and he was no longer qualified to be too much, and the position of the Son of Heaven's Taifu I think it was none other than a teacher. Guys, what do you think? β
All the ministers said in unison: "It is none other than Lord Zigan." β
Lu Zhi waved his hand: "This matter must be approved by the Queen Mother." β
Jin Liang said with a smile: "I first assume that the Queen Mother agrees to appoint the empress dowager as the empress, plus the last appointment in Luoyang, the Taishi Cai, and the Ma Taibao Riji, the third duke has already been decided." Our beloved Gou Shuang refused to apply, so let Lord Yang Biao be Situ, so that Liu Taiwei Yu, Liu Sikonghong, and Yang Situ Biao are the three dukes. In addition, Huangfu Song is the left cavalry general to lead the Liangzhou pastor, Zhu Jun is the right chariot cavalry general to lead the state pastor, and Huang Gui can be appointed as the servant and the secretary of the book. Lord Zheng Tai can be appointed as a guard captain and a secretary of the book. In this way, we have ten important ministers to assist the Son of Heaven. The ten important ministers are all recorded in Shangshushi, and they can be called the top ten auxiliary ministers, so can there be such important ministers in the Luoyang court? ! The top ten auxiliary ministers are all respected at home, and everyone in the world admires them, and when the people of the world see the top ten auxiliary ministers in Xiangyang, they know that the Han family is in Xiangyang. There are only a few famous ministers such as Yuan Yin and Wang Yun in the Luoyang court, which can make the people of the world fearful! β
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Jiuqing was divided into three divisions, Taichang, Guangluxun, Weiwei Sanqing and Taiwei Division. Taifu, Tingwei, Dahonglu Sanqing and Situ Department, Zongzheng, Da Si Nong, Shaofu Sanqing and Sikong Department, Sangong Division Commander Hundred Bureaucrats, nominally the highest official position, in fact, has no actual power. The Eastern Han Dynasty appointed the three dukes to be well-known scribes to promote the concept of governing the country through economics, but in fact it was just a political vase, and the emperor used Shangshu to participate in government affairs, and did not pay the three dukes with real power. Because the three princes are masters of Confucianism, they often have to bear very serious responsibility for small mistakes. Take the cloud high festival. Therefore, Jin Liang generously gave up the position of Situ to Yang Biao, and he himself did not mind the position of the third prince and the third prince.
Huang Wan was able to distinguish right from wrong and not be deceived by Yuan Yin. Grateful to Jin Liang, listening to Jin Liang's words, it seemed that Jin Liang himself was excluded from the central minister, so he smiled and said: "Just now Xianting said that Jingzhou will be changed to the Sili region, so should you, the assassin of Jingzhou, be changed to the captain of the Sili school?" The elite officers and soldiers under the rule of the imperial court are built by your own hands, and those soldiers are only the first to look forward to you, and you don't enter the ranks of this auxiliary minister, so how can you say that the past?! β
Yang Biao also thanked Jin Liang for his kindness, it was Jin Liang who gave him this opportunity to rank as the third duke, so he added: "Feng Xian broke the white wave thieves and the Shanyue barbarians, and had to protect the safety of the holy driver. β
If there was no Jin Liang's proposal, Ma Ri didn't know when he would be able to rank as the third duke, so he was also quite grateful to Lu Bu, so he looked at Zheng Tai: "Gongye, you are only in your thirties, and you are already a noble person when you serve as Jiuqing and Shangshu, but you are still young and have no merits, so it is better for these ten auxiliary ministers to be filled by virtuous men, and when we old people have Namu die, you will make up for it." β
Zheng Tai had a trace of resentment in his heart, but he said with a smile on his face: "Xian Ting Gong is very martial, his achievements are very great, his reputation is increasing, and with his auxiliary government, he is several times stronger than in Xia, Zheng Tai is willing to let Xian." β
Jin Liang pretended to be polite and excused himself a few times, and the ministers present persuaded him to join him, and he was disrespectful.
Jin Liang was able to enter the top ten auxiliary ministers, and only then began to elaborate on the key points of setting up the top ten auxiliary ministers: "Before the general He Jin Qiankun was arbitrary, he was deceived by traitors, and bowed into Dong Zhuo's traitor, and the reason for the chaos was mostly because of He Jin's dictatorship, and no one restrained it, so we can no longer produce such an authoritarian minister in Hancheng, and the ten auxiliary ministers enter a cabinet, and everything in the world is first submitted to the cabinet, and the cabinet will discuss it, more than five, and the consent of the people will be passed, and less than five people agree to pass it, and the adopted strategy will be dedicated to the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven Holy Judgment, so good?!" β
The ministers asked, "Cabinet? What is the Cabinet? β
Jin Liang said with a smile: "The predecessor of the cabinet is Shangshutai, and it is said that it is called the cabinet because the ten auxiliary ministers are the rulers of the world on behalf of the Son of Heaven, and the office is in a pavilion in the inner palace. β
The ministers praised this cabinet system as very appropriate, and immediately jointly wrote to the Queen Mother for approval, Jin Liang smiled secretly in his heart, if it wasn't for this cabinet system to increase the authority of these people, they would not have agreed to the cabinet system so happily.
Since Jingzhou has merged Henan County and Hongnong County and turned into the Sili area, Jin Liang naturally moved from Jingzhou Thorn Shi to Sili Lieutenant, whose authority is greater than that of all state pastors, in addition to governing the Sili area, but also responsible for supervising the hundred officials of the Xiangyang regime. At the same time, because of the trust shown by the Queen Mother before, Jin Liang still received Guangluxun. As a result, Jin Liang's entire official title was the captain of the division and the general of Zhengnan, and he also led the Lu Shangshu and entered the cabinet, and was one of the top ten auxiliary ministers.
And because Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, and Liu Yu are in the field, Cai Yong has not yet come to Xiangyang, even if he comes to Xiangyang, he is engaged in education, and has no real power, and Ma Ritan is the same, as for Liu Hong and Yang Biao, they are also gentle gentlemen, not well-versed in the world, Lu Zhi is not in good health, and Huang Wan is grateful for Jin Liang's kindness, so that the person who is really a man of the ten auxiliary ministers is Jin Liang. Jin Liang's original intention in setting up the ten auxiliary ministers was to avoid the scene in the Luoyang court, and he didn't want to repeat Dong Zhuo's fall. I don't have enough prestige. Pull the other nine important ministers over to make a huge cover. Let the world's scholars shut up, and they won't say that Jin Liang is like Dong Zhuo. Even if the other nine important ministers were greedy for power and had to compete with Jin Liang for power and profit, Jin Liang, as Guangluxun, controlled Empress Dowager He and the Son of Heaven, so he could influence their opinions, and then indirectly control the cabinet.
When the Empress Dowager He saw the seven important ministers jointly on the table, she didn't dare to slack off, and finished reading the chapter. She hesitated again and again, she knew that this cabinet system was actually proposed by Jin Liang, although it was nominally high-sounding that the collective wisdom and efforts of the people to discuss the country was to avoid arbitrariness, in fact, there was also the meaning of restricting her Empress Dowager He, as long as her Empress Dowager He's future will could not satisfy these ten auxiliary ministers, her will would not be able to come up with the palace. But what can she do, she just relies on these people to support herself, otherwise she would have been abolished by Dong Zhuo and Yuan Tunnel together. Thinking of what happened in the Luoyang court a few days ago, she shuddered and was very grateful to Jin Liang. If it weren't for Jin Liang's reminder, her position as the queen mother would not be kept, and her son's throne would not be kept.
Thinking of this, Empress Dowager He looked back at the two people behind her, her face showed a little hesitation, she really didn't want to treat Jin Liang like that, a courtier with great achievements, but those two people were right, if people like Jin Liang were not strictly restricted, they would become the second Dong Zhuo sooner or later.
Empress Dowager He coughed a few times, and said hesitantly: "This cabinet system is very good, and the idea of setting up ten auxiliary ministers to fight against the Luoyang puppet court is also very wise. It's just that Jin Liang is only twenty-eight years old, and he is still six or seven years younger than Zheng Tai, young and thin, how can he do a good job as a lieutenant of Si Li, how can he be a good auxiliary minister, it is better to let Zheng Tai be a lieutenant of Si Li, and enter the cabinet to be an auxiliary minister, in addition, Jin Liang has been promoted to the general of Zhengnan, commanding tens of thousands of officers and soldiers, and the military affairs are heavy. β
Jin Liang's face sank like water, he had already seen the action of Empress Dowager He turning back just now, one of those two people was Pan Ming, the general of Yulin Zhonglang, and the other was a bad old woman. Could it be the legendary Huayang Jun, the mother of Empress Dowager He and He Miao, and the stepmother of He Jin. Empress Dowager He listened to the opinions of He Miao and this Huayang Jun, which made He Jin lose his life, and indirectly caused He Miao to die, if it weren't for Jin Liang's strength to turn the tide, her He family would have been ruined and erased from the Han household register, this bad old woman is not only not grateful to Dade, but instead pries Empress Dowager He to limit Jin Liang's power, which is really stupid.
Although Jin Liangzhi was very resentful, the expression on his face couldn't be more bland, and he knelt down: "Minister's order!" β
Zheng Tai was happy in his heart, his face was as calm as water, and he knelt on the ground: "The minister bows and thanks the holy grace." β
Lu Zhi, Huang Wan, Yang Biao, Ma Rizhuo, Liu Hong's faces all changed greatly, if it weren't for Jin Liang's proposal, if it weren't for Jin Liang's efforts to persuade Huang Yu and Yang Biao, if it weren't for Jin Liang's efforts to persuade Huang Xuan and Yang Biao, you Empress Dowager He has today's stability, Jin Liang was born and died to break the great achievements of the White Wave Thieves and Shanyue Barbarians, Empress Dowager He somehow, but she didn't say a word, how could the royal family calm the hearts of the soldiers of the three armies with such an act.
Lu Zhi is an upright person, although he is loyal, but he is extremely angry at the unjust practice of the Queen Mother, stands up, and walks away.
Ma Ri knelt on the ground: "The Queen Mother Mingjian, if it weren't for Jin Xianting to persuade the Queen Mother to follow the story of the Spring and Autumn Period to avoid Jingzhou, if it weren't for Jin Xianting running from it and persuading Lord Lu Zhi and several other adults, if it weren't for Jin Xianting's efforts to persuade Huang Wan and Yang Biao, if it weren't for Jin Xianting's first soldiers and soldiers to lead the officers and soldiers to break the white wave thieves and Shanyue barbarians, a few days ago, the Luoyang Dynasty mattered, the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven An Neng sat here, please Queen Mother Mingjian!" β
Huang Wan, Yang Biao, and Liu Hong also knelt on the ground: "Please Queen Mother Mingjian!" β
The guards in the temporary palace where the Queen Mother was located also knelt on the ground together: "Please let the Queen Mother know it!" β
Zheng Tai was helpless, and also knelt on the ground: "Please Queen Mother Mingjian!" β
The news soon spread to the officers and soldiers who were lining up outside to set off, and tens of thousands of soldiers also knelt down together: "Please Queen Mother Mingjian!" β
The shouts shook the sky, frightening the Empress Dowager He, Pan Ming and Huayang Jun's souls.
Jin Liang sneered secretly, I have already enveloped all the auxiliary ministers, and I have enveloped the hearts of the army, you Empress Dowager He wants to learn from Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, to play the trick of "cunning to avoid death, lackeys and cooking birds and hiding good bows", it is too late. Empress Dowager He glanced at Pan Ming and Hua Yangjun, it is the two of you who have bad ideas, if I insist on doing it again, I am afraid that the army will be in turmoil, and I will be abolished on the spot, the queen mother, there is no way, I have to give in.
Empress Dowager He pretended to smile: "If the palace is not thoughtful, then act according to your rules." Jin Liangqian was the captain of the Sili school to lead the general of Zhengnan and the leader of Guangluxun, and he was also the leader of the Shangshu affairs, and he was included in the top ten auxiliary ministers of the cabinet, and the top ten auxiliary ministers all opened the government. Zheng Tai is still a scholar and concurrently serves as a guard lieutenant. Pan Ming is still a general in Yulin. β
After this court meeting, because of the stupid behavior of the Empress Dowager He who came up to seize the power of the meritorious heroes, the three armies were not convinced, and the Empress Dowager He was forced to change her will again, so that the imperial authority was lowered by one level, and the prestige of the ten auxiliary ministers, especially the prestige of Jin Liang, was raised by one level.
Back in the military tent, Jin Liang saw that Wu Amaranth, the general envoy of the shadows, was still waiting there, so he asked: "You have already told me all the information about Luoyang, why don't you leave?" β
Wu Amaran snorted coldly: "I don't believe you don't want to know the details of Pan Ming?!" β
Jin Liang sneered: "He, Pan Ming, is just an old friend of the great general He Jin, and he also served as the Sima of Saishuo, the captain of the military academy in the West Garden, who once saved He Jin's life and won the trust of the Empress Dowager He. (To be continued.) )
