Chapter 64: Yuan Shao's Plan
"Queen." He Jin is an elder brother, so he doesn't need to pay too much etiquette to his sister, and he can be called casually. I sat down on the chair, poured a cup of tea, habitually touched my round belly, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Empress He didn't sit down, but walked quickly in front of He Jin, grabbed his shoulder with one hand, and asked, "Brother, is there any news from Lord Guo?" ”
"There it is." He Jin smiled, feeling very strange in his heart, is this sister's concern for Guo Yi a little too much? This is beyond the scope of concern for a courtier. Putting the letter sent by Guo Yi on the table, he sighed: "This kid is quite capable, and he has pacified Wudu County. Now that the defenders of Anding County and Beidi County have heard the wind, they can form a flank attack with him. The emperor also agreed to send troops to help, and if the traitors sent troops in three ways, the traitors would inevitably have no way to escape. ”
Where can Empress He understand these military intelligence reports? It's just that from Guo Yi's words, we can know that everything is fine now, and he is ambitiously planning to pacify Liangzhou. A hanging heart finally fell slightly, and then finally sat down and poured himself a cup of tea.
"It seems that this time Lord Guo will make a great contribution, and the emperor will make him the state pastor? Added to the ranks? ”
He Jin put the letter away and motioned for Da Changqiu to take everyone out. Leaning sideways on the table, his index finger tapped on the tabletop, and whispered, "I'm afraid it won't." The ten permanent servants slandered day and night, and the emperor is now wary of him. This time, Huangfu Song was sent to support, also to deter Guo Yi, in case he supported his troops and dominated one side. ”
"Why is that?" Empress He immediately stood up, her expression suddenly panicked, and she said eagerly: "Brother, I want to say a lot of good things for him." Lord Guo is loyal and patriotic, and has no intention of rebellion. ”
He Jin waved his hand and said loudly: "What bullshit is loyal and patriotic." ”
Empress He flicked her sleeves suddenly, and said awe-inspiringly: "The emperor has abandoned you and my brothers and sisters in order to help Liu Xie, and the only person who can be used in the court is Guo Yi." Don't be foolish at this time, brother. ”
"I don't think so." He Jin shook his head again and again, and sighed: "The emperor wants to set up a new army, and the method Guo Yi said is only afraid that it will be difficult to implement, and now the emperor has suspicion of him, and he is afraid that he will be idle after returning to the dynasty." ”
Where would Empress He believe his words, what she is thinking about now is to let her son ascend to the throne of God, Guo Yi is her appointed minister of the dragon, how can he be deposed? "You are a general, in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, can't you think of a way? If Guo Yi is dismissed, I'm not done with you! ”
"Oops!" He Jin was taken aback, what happened to his sister? Since Guo Yi went to Liangzhou, why has she been like a different person? Could it be ...... He Jin's brows jumped, his fat mind was full of fat intestines and only thought of one possibility, he looked left and right in a panic, confirmed that there was no one around, and then whispered: "Isn't the queen having deviant thoughts with Guo Yuanjun?" ”
He Jin deliberately called Guo Yi an "envoy", emphasizing his identity as a state assassin, wanting to see how Empress He would react.
Empress He's face changed drastically, and after a few seconds, she turned her head to look at He Jin, and a sentence popped out of her mouth, "Is there a reliable eunuch in this palace who can replace the Ten Standing Servants to lead the new army?" ”
"I ......" He Jin has no culture, but his brain is normal! Queen He changed like this, she didn't refute, she didn't deny, she didn't scold, but she was weak-hearted and talked about him, it must be a problem with Guo Yi. Once such palace secrets are spread, then their He family will be the end of the family and the extermination!
"Back to the queen's words, most of the eunuchs in this palace obey the orders of the ten permanent servants, and we are afraid that we will not be able to achieve it if we want to install people. The emperor set up a new army just to weaken my military power, how could he arrange for my people to be in charge of the army? ”
Queen He ran out of ideas for a while, pacing back and forth in the room, and said anxiously: "How is this good?" ”
He Jin hurriedly comforted and said, "Don't worry, queen, wait for me to go back and discuss a countermeasure." ”
"Hurry up!" Empress He is quite dissatisfied with He Jin's efficiency, such a thing, it has been two months, and there has been no result, if Guo Yi is replaced, she will already have the military power in her hands at this time!
"Yes." He Jin agreed to come down and quickly left the Changqiu Palace. While sending someone to find Yuan Shao, he took a carriage back to his house. I thought to myself what to say about it. He never expected the deviance between Empress He and Guo Yi, and he should not have let Guo Yi go to Liangzhou at that time.
When the carriage arrived at the door, Yuan Shao was already waiting, and Guo Tu was also walking with him.
He Jin beckoned them into the study to talk secretly, and told them about the current situation, wanting Yuan Shao to give him an idea. As for the secret affairs of the palace, they were naturally hidden. No matter what Queen He thinks, the fewer people who know about this matter, the better.
Yuan Shao pondered for a long time, he had been planning for a long time for this opportunity, as long as he could win the military power of the forbidden palace, once there was a change in the palace, the Yuan family would be able to take advantage of the situation. Now the fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family are brilliant enough, but he still wants something special, something that can overpower Yuan Shu.
"Rules, how do you think the manpower should be arranged?"
Since following Yuan Shao, Guo Tu has lived a very nourishing life, and he is now firmly in the position of the first strategist, with the highest status among the disciples. He was somewhat grateful to Guo Yi in his heart, and when he heard the current situation, he also wanted to let Guo Yi keep his official position as much as possible.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "Since ancient times, there has been no precedent for eunuchs to lead troops, and the general can go to the table with the ministers to advise the emperor. If the emperor insists on arranging close attendants to lead the troops, then only one of the eunuchs with a lowly position can be selected to fill the position, so that the ten permanent attendants can be divided and cause infighting among the eunuchs. As long as the military power does not fall into the hands of Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, the generals can slowly figure it out. ”
"That's not the right plan." He Jin shook his head again and again, spread his hands, and said helplessly: "The emperor's move is to weaken my military power, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others are afraid that they will not let go of this opportunity, this new army, they are bound to win." ”
"There's another plan." Guo Tu said confidently: "The general can draw up a list and select the children of famous families, or the family of the Three Princes and Nine Qing to serve as the leaders of the new army. The general demoted himself to the position of the main general, so that even if the emperor arranged for his attendants to act as the main general, it was just an empty shell. ”
"Wonderful!" He Jin was overjoyed when he heard it, and this strategy was his appetite. The eunuch has no foundation in the army, as long as the upper and lower officers are his own people, the position of the main general does not matter whether he is Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong or other cats and dogs, they are just a puppet.
Yuan Shao smiled slightly, and secretly gave Guo Tu a thumbs up, if this plan succeeds, he will definitely be in charge! The world's famous family, which one is higher than him Yuan Shao?
Guo Tu is also quite proud, if he succeeds in letting Yuan Shao take charge of the army this time, it will be equivalent to laying the foundation for Yuan Shao to dominate the world. With the sun in his hand, commanding the world, who dares to disobey? Thinking of this, a person suddenly flashed in Guo Tu's heart, and he hurriedly asked: "General, I don't know what Guo Envoy should do?" ”
He Jin flashed a lot of scenes of palace secrets in his mind, and it was the best way to keep this secret and keep Guo Yi away from Luoyang. Then he said: "This matter will be discussed later." ”
