Chapter 104: Trace Wu Amaranth
Jin Liang was stunned, Empress Dowager He played too much, Jin Liang felt a lot of pressure, and had the heart to refuse directly, but he was afraid that if he refused, Empress Dowager He turned his face with him and the situation was out of control, so he had to hold his words: "Wuzu Taigong Wangzhen is really a virtuous talent who is not born in the world, Wen Tao and Wu are all extraordinary people, and he is over eighty years old when he assists King Wu, and his age is appropriate; How can I be Jin Liangwen, Taowu, and I am only a few years older than the Son of Heaven, how can I be the father of the Son of Heaven at such an age, and I hope that the Queen Mother will think twice.

Empress Dowager He moved out of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty to persuade Jin Liang: "Although the first emperor did not say it explicitly, he and Naizu Taigongwang discussed the matter of the Zhongxing Han Dynasty, and the palace knew the meaning of the first emperor. Jin Qing, don't let down the hard work of the first emperor and Wu Zu. β
Empress Dowager He has said everything about this, what else can Jin Liang say, he can only bite the bullet, step forward, and accept the bow of the young emperor Liu Wei.
Liu Wei grew up in a Taoist family, and after entering the palace, he read some history books, but he still didn't understand the story of "Jiang Shang Zhou Wuwang", but he just held an indispensable attitude and accepted the mercy of the Empress Dowager He like a puppet.
Liu Wei was about to bow down to Lu Buxing, but was stopped by Empress Dowager He: "Pause, this palace wants Jin Qing to swear that he will never betray the Han." β
Jin Liang was helpless, so he had to swear a heavy oath: "I'm Jin Liang, Jin Xianting." Swear to be loyal to Liu Wei, the son of the Han Dynasty, and never rebel against the Han Dynasty for the rest of his life. β
Just as he was swearing, Jin Liangzhi secretly thought to himself that the Han who Lao Tzu said "never betray the Han" refers to the Han people. And not your Liu Han royal family. Besides, Lao Tzu has been struck by lightning once. No, I'm not dead. When Empress Dowager He saw that Jin Liang had made a heavy oath, she happily asked Liu Wei to bow down to Jin Liang solemnly, and Jin Liang had no choice but to accept it disrespectfully. Of course, this matter of Shang's father cannot be known to any other minister for the time being, and Empress Dowager He and Jin Liang agreed to keep their mouths shut and not confide this secret to anyone, otherwise public opinion in the world will be turbulent.
Just when Jin Liang thought that the matter was over, he was about to leave the palace, but was stopped by the Empress Dowager He: "Aiqing." Wait a minute, there's something in front of you. β
Empress Dowager He's slender jade hand made a move into the air, and she saw a woman in black flying down from a girder.
The woman walked like the wind, landed silently, and stood in front of the Queen Mother and bowed her hand: "The shadow always makes Wu Yuan pay a visit to the Queen Mother." β
Boundless? This woman is such a cow that she dares to call herself infinite. Is there no upper limit or no lower limit? Jin Liang originally thought that this woman was a scathing, mean, and arrogant stranger, but when his eyes fell on the woman, he couldn't help but be taken aback.
This woman is of medium height and has a slender waist. What impressed Jin Liang the most was that she had a pair of towering jade peaks, which seemed to be about to break out. With such a big burden, she can still walk like a fly, landing silently, which is really extraordinary. Jin Liang couldn't help but be impressed.
Look at this woman's face again, at first glance it looks ordinary, not the first beauty of the national color and fragrance of Diao Chan, and then look at it, you can see the peculiarity of this woman, her face is like a full moon, her eyebrows are soft, and her eyes seem to be a pool of autumn water. Thinking about how long she had been on the beam, she didn't even notice it. This woman is truly extraordinary.
Empress Dowager He smiled and introduced to Jin Liang: "This is the chief envoy of my Han royal secret agent traces, Wu Yuan, the chief envoy of Wu, this is General Jin Liang, General Jin is ......."
Wu Amaranth interrupted Empress Dowager He's introduction and said with a slight smile: "Don't work for the Empress Dowager's introduction, Wu Amaranth knows a lot about the general, and knows a lot about it. β
Between the words, Wu Amaranth didn't seem to have much respect for Empress Dowager He, and Empress Dowager He seemed to be very polite to Wu Amaran, and this relationship made Jin Liang very confused. But when I saw Wu Amaran smiling, the shallow dimples on both sides of her cheeks were exposed, which was very charming. When Jin Liang saw the dimple, he didn't feel a hint of abruptness.
Empress Dowager He snorted coldly: "Could it be that this dimple contains a lot of wine, and it can make Jin Qing drunk?" β
Jin Liang woke up suddenly, and hurriedly smiled: "General Envoy Wu resembles an old friend of Wei Chen, Wei Chen has more recognition, General Envoy Wu really looks very similar to my old friend." β
Empress Dowager He snorted coldly again: "Old friend, your old friend is a woman?" β
Jin Liang suddenly understood that this was the last year of the Eastern Han Dynasty, not the harmonious years of later generations he had experienced, so he made it up: "When Weichen was in Jizhou, he met a general, and he had a good relationship with him, but the war was chaotic, and there was no contact since. β
Wu Yuan smiled slightly: "Maybe it is really my relatives, my family stayed in Jizhou for a period of time two years ago, and during that period of time, I detected that Wang Fen, the assassin of Jizhou, wanted to take advantage of the old house of the first emperor to visit the river in the north to murder the first emperor and set up the Marquis of Hefei as the emperor, so I rushed back to Luoyang in the starry night and told the first emperor that the first emperor gave up." β
Jin Liang was taken aback, he had always heard that it was because "there is red gas in the north, and the east and west are in the sky, and the Taishi said that 'there should be a conspiracy, it is not suitable to go north'", so Emperor Ling gave up the plan to tour the old house between the rivers in the north, and then recruited Wang Fen into Beijing, Wang Fen saw that the conspiracy was exposed, and committed suicide in fear. I didn't expect that there was a trace of credit in this.
Jin Liang didn't know what Wu Yuan meant, and he was so enthusiastic about him, so he had to smile and asked: "The maid sent by Yuan Kui was hiding on the beam before, I don't know why General Envoy Wu didn't arrest her?" β
Wu Yuan smiled lightly: "I hid on the beam this time, just for this person, I wanted to take her by surprise, capture her alive, prevent her from committing suicide, interrogate the mastermind, record the confession, how could the general have a hand disease, and take down this woman first." β
Jin Liang hurriedly apologized: "Jin Liang was reckless, he missed the important matter of the chief envoy, and he apologized for this." β
Wu Yuan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "General, don't bother Bufan." From the general's analysis just now, Wu Yuan can see that even if the woman's confession is recorded, it can't help Yuan Kui's old horseman, and the plan for now is to follow the general's words, first unite the Yuan family to get rid of Dong Zhuo, and then unite other families who are dissatisfied with the Yuan family to destroy the Yuan family. β
Mrs. He said solemnly to Jin Liang: "My Han royal family has always had its own secret agent organization, like Emperor Wu, there were embroidered messengers during the period of Emperor Wu, and later they were opposed by the family. Emperor Wu then dismissed the embroidered messenger. But it takes the meaning of 'chasing the wind and catching shadows'. A more secretive trace messenger was established, and this organization numbered about 1,000 people, with more than 200 people distributed in Luoyang City, and the rest were distributed in all corners of the Han Dynasty, specializing in spying on the secrets of princes and ministers. Originally, the first emperor had always been in charge of the trace, but the first emperor died young, and the palace had no choice but to take care of the matter. How can this palace be a woman, I have always disliked and are not good at this treacherous thing, and I have always wanted to find a trustworthy minister to help the palace deal with this matter, and now you are entrusted by the first emperor, and you are brave and loyal, and you are martial, and you have a treacherous talent, so this palace is relieved to hand over this trace to you. β
Without waiting for Jin Liang to express his position, Wu Yuan said coldly to the Empress Dowager He: "Empress Dowager He, the trace has only served the royal family for hundreds of years. has never been subservient to the minister, Empress Dowager He. Could it be that you want to break the rules of your ancestors? β
Empress Dowager He also coldly argued with each other: "Commander, remember that you have been in charge of chasing the wind for many years, and there is no merit and hard work, this palace forgives you for the crime of rudeness." However, what you say is very problematic, when Huo Guang was in power, you didn't obey his orders! What's more, General Jin is the person entrusted by the first emperor and the father of the Son of Heaven, isn't this identity worthy of being in charge of your chasing wind? β
Wu Yuan looked at Liu Wei: "Your Majesty, what is the imperial will?" β
Liu Wei smiled bitterly: "I obey the arrangement of the queen mother. β
Wu Yuan had nothing to say, walked up to Jin Liang, and bowed down: "The general envoy of the wind catcher meets the general, and he is willing to obey the general's drive and never give up." β
Jin Liang hurriedly replied: "The same is to serve the Son of Heaven, Jin Liang does not dare to say the word driven, sincerely cooperate, unite as one, and protect the Han family." β
Wu Amaranth saw that Jin Liang was not arrogant and conceited, and was very satisfied with Jin Liang's attitude, and smiled: "What a 'sincere cooperation and unity', Wu Amaranth has been taught, and he will obey the general's dispatch in the future, and he will not dare to make mistakes." β
Jin Liang suddenly remembered that Wu Amaranth, this woman was also a famous person in history.
At this time, the Empress Dowager He saw that Jin Liang and Wu Yuan had a very good conversation, and the trace was handed over smoothly, and she suddenly felt as if a mountain was missing, although this woman was keen to dominate the inner palace, but she never wanted to worry about things beyond her ability, how could she not have a courtier who could be fully trusted at hand, so she could only support it.
Wu Yuan saw that the Empress Dowager He did not learn and did not know how to do it, and she couldn't help but feel a little contempt in her heart, she was a shadow messenger who has been passed down for hundreds of years, and she has been immortal through the imperial transformation, which has also fueled her arrogance in the depths of the mainland, so that she has no respect for the Empress Dowager He, who was born as a butcher.
After taking charge of the royal secret agent, Jin Liangxin was overjoyed, he had three major intelligence organizations in his hands, which could basically cover all people, and the world would be under his control at that time, and these three major intelligence organizations could also supervise each other, which could prevent a certain person from sitting on the big tail.
Jin Liang remembered some measures to restrain Dong Zhuo, discussed with Empress Dowager He for a long time, and set some appointments for tomorrow's court meeting. Fang quietly left the palace. Turn back to Cai Fu.
The next morning. Empress Dowager He held the early dynasty again.
Taifu Yuan Kui came out of class and asked, "I don't know what the Queen Mother has to discuss this time?!" β
The implication is that you can stay in the palace if you are a woman, and the outside affairs are up to us families, so don't worry about it.
Empress Dowager He hated Yuan Kui very much in her heart, but she had a smile on her face: "There are a lot of things to discuss in this court meeting, and the significance is also very significant. β
Yuan Kui was helpless and took a few steps back. Back to the position of the head of the civil service.
Empress Dowager He suddenly put on a look of reminiscence and regret: "Last night, the first emperor gave a dream to the palace, saying that the big mistake in his life was the party system, although there were some party members who were disloyal to the court, and more party members were innocently connected, so that the Han Dynasty talents withered, and the first emperor felt ashamed of the ancestors and ancestors, and specially ordered the palace to further remove the party and reuse the party members who had no bad deeds. β
The following ministers of the family who are related to the party members all knelt down and kowtowed: "The first emperor is wise!" The Queen Mother is wise! β
Empress Dowager He re-promoted and appointed a large number of party members in accordance with the appointment agreed with Jin Liang last night. As long as these party members are not seriously wrong in their lives, they have nothing to do with the Yuan family. All officers were reinstated, and some were even promoted by several ranks. Among them, the most prominent is Cai Yong. Empress Dowager He issued an order to pardon all Cai Yong's previous sins, because of his extensive knowledge and good ability to educate, he was named the Taishi and came to assist the young emperor Liu Wei. Although Cai Yong is the world's best in knowledge, literary style, calligraphy, and piano skills, Jin Liang asked the Queen Mother to recruit him to the court as a prince, but not because he is a cultural talent.
Because of Cai Yong's daughter Cai Yan, Jin Liang and Cai Yan have been married by the first emperor, Cai Yan's beauty and dignity are very temperamental, according to Jin Liang's previous aesthetic of liking the flamboyant type, he naturally has no good impression of this kind of bookish girl, but now he is just a college student who came from the harmonious years of the 21st century, and feels that Cai Yan is far better than the school flower of their school, and pity is born leisurely. also made a decision to promote Cai Yong in his career with Aiwu and Wu.
In addition, the doctor of Qianguanglu, Ma Riyan, was the Taibao, and was also responsible for the guardianship and assistance of the young emperor Liu Wei. Ma Riyan is the son of the master of scripture Ma Rong, Lu Zhi is a powerful disciple of Ma Rong, and Ma Riyan has also passed on the mantle of Ma Rong, and the two have taught Chinese books together with Cai Yong, and the relationship between the three is very good.
Lu Zhi knocked on the side and learned that although Ma Rong's daughter Ma Lun was married to Yuan Kui, Ma Riyan was related to Yuan Kui, but Yuan Kui was known for his hypocrisy and reputation because of his family background, and he always looked down on the extravagant and wealthy Ma family, plus Yuan Kui appointed state and county officials to give priority to the children of the Yuan family and the protΓ©gΓ©s when he was still the secretary, and did not attach importance to the children of the Ma family and the protΓ©gΓ©s.
Lu Zhi knew Ma Riyan's attitude, so he whispered to Jin Liang before the court meeting, and Jin Liang hinted that the Queen Mother could promote Ma Riyan to Taibao.
Restoring the position of Taishi and Taibao is to share the power of Taifu Yuan Kui, because Cai Yong and Ma Riyan are also famous all over the world, and people at home and abroad are looking forward to this appointment, Yuan Kui himself does not dare to have the slightest rhetoric, if he has the slightest rhetoric, Jin Liang, Lu Zhi, Liu Hong and others will go out to impeach him for dictatorship.
In fact, after the Empress Dowager Fengjia arrived in Jingzhou, Jin Liang and Empress Dowager He also prepared to transfer Yuan Kui's position as the Taifu to Lu Zhi, and Lu Zhi was more qualified to sit in the position of the Taifu than Yuan Kui.
Yuan Shao came out of the class to question: "When the Han Dynasty came, only the Taifu was set up, and the Taishi and Taibao were all abandoned, and the Queen Mother restored the Taishi and Taibao, which violated the ancestral system, and the ministers asked the Queen Mother to stop." β
The protΓ©gΓ©s of the Yuan family behind him also bowed down one after another: "Please stop the Queen Mother." β
Empress Dowager He said coldly: "The restoration of the position of Taishi and Taibao is the dream of the first emperor in this palace, and the first emperor also said that if anyone opposes the restoration of the position of Taishi and Taibao, let that courtier come to see me." Do you miss the first emperor and want to accompany the first emperor? β
That's a murderous thing to say. These ministers of the family are all bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, and when they encounter that kind of master with a high aura, they will be as well-behaved as dogs, and if they meet He Jin's cowardly and trustworthy soft eggs, they will immediately become hungry wolves who share meat and eat.
Guanglu Xun Jin Liang and Hu Ben Zhonglang led Wang Yue to lead the brave men under their command to raise swords and cross guns, and looked at each other angrily, if there was half a word in such a family, they would definitely be killed on the spot, and let them go to see the first emperor.
Yuan Shao faced Dong Zhuo in history and said, "The world's healthy people, how can Dong Gong be the only one?" It seems to be unyielding power, but in fact, because Dong Zhuo is a former official of the Yuan family, Yuan Shao has a psychological advantage in the face of Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo did not dare to kill Yuan Shao for a while, because he was still counting on being able to gather the family. But now the situation is completely different, Empress Dowager He learned the lesson of the rebellion of the ten permanent servants, reused Jin Liang, Huang Zhong, Wang Yue and other cronies, the palace is densely packed with elite soldiers loyal to the Han family, if Yuan Shao is rude, he can be crowned with a big crime of disrespect, and kill him on the spot, and the Yuan family does not dare to risk the disapproval of the world to immediately rebel. Yuan Shao himself thought of this, so he made amends and entered the class and shrank his head.
Because Yuan Shu had an agreement with Jin Liang, he hates Dong Zhuo the most now, and he doesn't care much about Yuan Kui's power being weakened a little. Seeing that the leader was cowardly, the protΓ©gΓ©s of the Yuan family had no choice but to shrink their heads with a cold face and not say a word.
As a result, Cai Yong was appointed as the Taishi, and Ma Riyan was appointed as the Taibao.
Ma Riyan is now above the Luoyang court, taking office on the spot, Cai Yong is still at home, and the Empress Dowager He asked Lu Bu to send his cronies to send an edict of appointment to Cai Yong, and let Cai Yong serve as the prince.
Next on the agenda is the appointment of Situ. The predecessor Situ Ding Palace was dismissed a month ago, and now there is no one in charge, so the Empress Dowager He obeyed the arrangement of Jin Liang and others and recruited Xun Shuang, a famous scholar from Yingchuan.
Xun Shuang is Xun Yu's uncle, Xun Yu's uncle and grandfather, is the sixth in the "Xun's Eight Dragons", if you talk about talent and learning, then the number is the first, at that time there was "Xun's Eight Dragons, Ciming is unique" praise. In order to avoid the scourge of the party, he hid in the Han River for more than ten years, specializing in writing, and successively wrote "Rites", "Yi Chuan", "Poetry Biography", "Shangshu Zhengjing", "Spring and Autumn Regulations", "Chinese", "New Book", etc., known as Shuo Confucian. (To be continued.) )
