Chapter 135: Three Hundred Stones (2)
At the end of the month, there was a light snowfall. /。 //
It stands to reason that this would not have happened at this time, but this year's snow seems to have come very early.
Zhongping, Zhongping, not peaceful......
The snow is indeed not too big, and the Jinluan Treasure Palace, the Imperial City of Luoyang, is covered with a thin layer of snowflakes, but it makes people feel very cold. The civil and military officials entered from the South Palace, and as soon as they entered the imperial city, they felt an unusual atmosphere. Cold, very cold!
Liu Hong, Emperor of the Han Dynasty, is on the golden throne of His Majesty.
This is also the first time that the Han Emperor has come to the court in recent times, and he came very early.
All the people had a strange thought in their hearts: I'm afraid that something big will happen, otherwise why did the emperor come so early?
The last time such a situation occurred was the second day of the Nangong Change.
Could it be ......
For a while, there was a faint gasp above the Jinluan Treasure Hall, but it soon fell silent.
Emperor Han's face was very poor, faintly tinged with a layer of cyan.
His heart was furious, very angry. Zhongping, I thought that I could have a peaceful time, but I was ...... Since the beginning of the year, there has not been a day that has allowed him to be happy. Finally, the Taiping Road Rebellion ended, and I still thought that there would be a peaceful year, but at the end of the year, such a thing would happen. Could it be that this country is really coming to an end?
With a cold gaze, Emperor Han took a deep breath, looked at the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and suddenly felt disgusted.
After calming down for a while, he spoke, "Today's court." Just three things. ”
Baiguan immediately made an appearance of listening, but God knows, how many of these people are sincerely planning for my country?
"The first thing, the Liangzhou Qiang people rebelled, Jincheng guarded Han Sui, and Longxi guarded Li Xiangru as a thief and occupied Longxi."
As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion in the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.
The general He Jin's face was gloomy, and Yuan Kui's eyelids drooped, as if an old monk had settled down.
There is no doubt that both men already know the news. And behind Emperor Han Zhang Rang and others. But he looked at those courtiers with a rather playful gaze. Han Sui, Li Xiangru...... Hehe, that's today's celebrities! At the beginning, it was also strongly recommended by the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. Now, celebrities and celebrities are rebelling, I don't know how these people will respond?
Therefore, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong also followed the example of Jin Ren and kept silent without saying a word.
Emperor Han sneered: "Why don't you speak?" ”
The ministers immediately fell silent. After a while, Wang Yun stood up, "Your Majesty, is this news accurate?" ”
"What do you say?"
Emperor Han's tone was very cold. There's a chill that comes from the bones.
Wang Yun didn't ask anymore and silently returned to his place. Wang Yun was a man who also fought with a sword when he was a teenager, and he was quite famous at that time. He has talent and scheming, but sometimes he doesn't know how to be flexible, so Emperor Han is not very happy with him.
But no matter what, this person is still loyal to the Han family.
Emperor Han didn't embarrass him, and looked at the ministers coldly and said, "The second thing, the Hu people in Wuyuan and other places. Echoing with the Qiang people of Liangzhou. waved 120,000 troops to make a rebellion, and even attacked the land of Sanfu, approaching Chang'an. Only Chang'an Taishou asked for reinforcements...... I didn't expect that my Han Xiongshi would fall to such a point. Three days, in just three days, half of the land of Sanfu fell into the hands of the rebels. I don't know all the celebrities in this court. After hearing the news. What do you think? ”
There was another gasp. Everyone bowed their heads.
"There is a third thing......"
When Emperor Han said this, he suddenly stopped. The minister's heart suddenly tightened. Liangzhou was in turmoil. The land of three auxiliaries is full of wolf smoke...... Could there be worse news than this?
At this time, two small yellow doors carried two golden trays up to the hall and placed the trays in the center of the main hall.
Lifting the bright yellow brocade silk above, above the main hall, there was another exclamation.
On a tray, there was a box covered with stone powder, and inside was a human head.
Someone recognized it at a glance, and it was the head of Li Xiangru, the Taishou of Longxi. Suddenly puzzled in his heart, he looked at Emperor Han.
"Yesterday, Longxi sent good news, there was Zuo Zhonglang Dong Zhuo's son-in-law defeated the thief in Lintao, and Dong Zhuo, the son of Xun Zhuo, attacked Longxi County at night and beheaded Li Xiangru. Now, Longxi has returned to my Han family, which should be a happy event. ”
It can be heard that Emperor Han was still very happy when he said this.
Yuan Kui opened his eyes, glanced at He Jin opposite, and then lowered his eyelids again.
He Jin was happy at first, but it soon became very complicated. No one knew what was going on in his mind at the moment.
Emperor Han said: "General, I have a question. ”
"The minister knows everything."
"Good!" Emperor Han frowned and said, "As early as April and May, I received a good report from Zuo Zhonglang's general Xun Zhuo, and saw the head of the anti-thief Zhang Baodi. After that, he broke Wan County and quelled the rebellion in Yuzhou, is this a great achievement? ”
"This, naturally, counts."
"This Dong Zhuo, I have an impression. In the first month, it was because of his desperate battle that he kept Nangong, right? ”
He Jin didn't speak, and secretly complained in his heart.
originally wanted to suppress Dong Zhuo, teach Dong Zhuo a lesson, and let him figure out where he should stand.
This was not a big deal, Emperor Han was busy with other things, how could he care about a small Hedong Taishou?
Unexpectedly, the Qiang people in Liangzhou did not rebel sooner or later, and it was precisely at this time that they rebelled.
However, it was Dong Zhuo's family who turned the tide, saved Longxi, and sent Li Xiangru's head. To be honest, He Jin didn't know anything about this matter before this. When the war report was first delivered, Dong Yan had an eye and sent someone to send 800 li to Yang urgently, but he did not go to He Jin, but asked someone to transfer it to Cai.
Cai is very idle now, and he doesn't participate in the deception at all.
Either play the piano at home to entertain yourself, or just find some scribes to talk to. It is precisely because of this that the hostility of the Ten Standing Servants towards him is gone. And Emperor Han was also happy because of this, and often came to Cai to talk about the piano.
It's no wonder that being an emperor is not an easy task.
You have to worry about this and that all day long, on the one hand, you have to suppress the power of the scholars, and on the other hand, you have to balance the conflict between the eunuchs and the scholars.
If you don't even have someone to talk to when you go home, and someone jumps out to say anything about something, that's really not a taste. Now, Cai is no longer annoying. On the contrary, it reminded Emperor Han of what this teacher taught him back then.
The teacher-student relationship is not just broken, it comes and goes, but makes their relationship closer.
Cai sent Li Xiangru's head, and by the way, he also praised his future student twice, but it reminded Liu Hong of Dong Zhuo.
Seeing that He Jin didn't speak, Zhang Rang smiled.
made a look at Zhao Zhong, and Zhao Zhong immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, when you talk about it today, the old slave remembered something." Now that the Taiping Dao Rebellion has subsided, the generals of the field have also been rewarded. It seems that no one has mentioned the matter of Donghedongdi. I heard that Xun Hedong is still stationed in Wanxian County......
Liangzhou, familiar with the habits of those Qiang people, and there are elite soldiers under his command, Mr. called Tiger General. If he sent troops to quell the rebellion, presumably those rebels would be able to break down soon. ”
When Emperor Han heard this, his eyes were full of joy.
"It's still my mother who can share my worries."
Emperor Han's favor for the ten permanent servants has reached the point of no return. To call Zhang Rang his father, and to Zhao Zhong to call him his mother, not only the Manchu Dynasty civil and military knows. Even those small people in Yangcheng. I've heard of it.
Yuan Kui opened his eyes, and there was a sharp glint in his eyes.
"General, if it weren't for today's events, I would have almost forgotten...... Dong Zhuo has made great contributions, why is he not rewarded? ”
Yuan Kui stood up first, "Your Majesty." This is not the general's fault. It was the negligence of the old minister. Earlier. The Great Shogun once mentioned the reward for Kaoru Zhuo. It's just that because of Xun Zhuo's identity, the old minister is also a little hesitant. I don't know how to report it. ”
"Identity? What does this mean? ”
"That Dong Zhuo was originally from a good family in the six counties of Liangzhou, and he didn't have any fame, and the reward was too much, I'm afraid it's not good."
"Fame, fame, fame......"
Liu Hong suddenly became angry, "You and others have meritorious fame, and there are countless filial piety and Maocai in the whole world, but who can share my worries, who can calm down the thieves for me?" Since you can't report it, you don't need to report it anymore, I have my own opinions. ”
In a word, the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military faces turned red.
Yuan Kui glanced at He Jin, and He Jin nodded at him gratefully.
It means to say: Taifu, I understand your favor!
"Passing on the decree, Dong Zhuo has made outstanding achievements and is the pillar of my Han family. Feng Qi is a former general, the Marquis of Dongxiang, the assassin of Liangzhou, the governor of Liangzhou military and government, and must pacify the Liangzhou rebellion as soon as possible. Zhao Zhong, you immediately send someone to Wanxian County and order Dong Zhuo to leave as soon as possible. ”
"The old slave obeys!"
"Your Majesty, don't ......"
Wang Yun stood up and said loudly: "Wanxian County is still far from Liangzhou, there is a way that far water can't save the near fire, even if Dong Zhuo receives the order now, he is only afraid of ...... The minister sponsored a person, Jizhou Assassin Shi Lu Zhi, who was quite talented, and put down the Jizhou rebellion in one fell swoop, both civil and military. Lu Zhi can be ordered to lead the troops in command, Jizhou is not far from Chang'an, and he can be ordered to pacify Sanfu and Liangzhou, the governor. ”
"Well...... this"
Liu Hong hesitated a little.
Lu Zhi is a talented person, and he was recommended by his teacher Cai at the beginning, so he is indeed a suitable candidate.
Zhang Rang suddenly spoke: "Your Majesty, the old slave also thinks that Lu Zigan is the most suitable." ”
As soon as this sentence came out, it made the Manchu Dynasty feel strange. Why did Zhang Rang change his personality today, and he breathed out of the same nostril with Wang Yun and others?
"Oh, Father also thinks Lu Zhi is suitable?"
"Huaili Hou Lu Zhi is indeed suitable, and his person is also quite loyal, indeed as Wang Yilang said, both civil and military."
For some reason, Yuan Kui, He Jin, and Wang Yun all chuckled in their hearts.
Zhang Rang drooped his eyelids and said expressionlessly: "Lu Zhi first set Jizhou, and then there was the rebellion in Qing, You, and Yanzhou, and his merits can be said to be unsurpassed. There are even folk songs that sing: The world is in chaos, the city is in ruins, the mother does not protect her children, her wife loses her husband, and Lai Delu Zhixi restores a peaceful ...... The old slave thought that Lu Zhi sent troops, and the anti-thieves should be self-defeating. ”
Poison, this old gelding is really *** poisonous!
He Jin looked at Zhang Rang and said in his heart: If you tell that ballad, how dare the emperor use Lu Zhi again?
He didn't have a good impression of Lu Zhi. Anyway, it's a guy who can't win over. On the contrary, it was Wang Yun, whose face suddenly turned pale.
Said secretly: It's not good, I'm just afraid that Mr. Zigan is in danger.
Sure enough, as soon as Emperor Han heard this, his face changed a little.
What is the emperor most afraid of? The merit is high, and the minister is in charge...... Lu Zhi has this reputation among the people, and he is also the history of Jizhou...... God knows what he had in mind. If Lu Zhi's mind is crooked, it will be more destructive than Taiping.
"It's so decided, Dong Zhuo will be the assassin of Liangzhou, and the governor of Liangzhou will be in the war. Lieutenant Zhang Wen is the general of the chariot cavalry. The commander of the second colonel of water and shooting sound, sent troops to Chang'an, and the governor was subordinate to the war...... As for Lu Zhi, he was crowned a hussar general and returned to Yang on a later date, which is of great use to me. The post of Jizhou assassin ......" Emperor Han's gaze swept among the hundred officials.
"Yilang Wang Fen is the assassin of Jizhou, and he will leave on the same day. Zhijin Wu Ding Yuan ......"
"The minister is here!"
From the sequence of military generals, a burly man came out, with a dignified appearance. Tall figure.
Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty said: "I ordered you to assassinate the history of Bingzhou, and set off on the same day to assist the rebellion of the Hu people in the north of Taiwei Pingdi!" ”
A series of wills were issued, not only caught the Manchu civil and military off guard, but even Zhang Rang, He Jin and Yuan Kui failed to react.
But it's not over yet.
Liu Hong said again: "Let Liu Yan, the former Taishou of Youzhou, be the pastor of Yizhou, and Liu Yu, the former royal Zongzheng, will be the pastor of Youzhou, and set off on the same day." ”
The state pastor has been abandoned for many years.
Liu Hong suddenly proposed these two titles, as if to tell those courtiers: I want to strengthen the imperial power.
Without waiting for everyone to react, Liu Hong stood up. Zhang Rang hurriedly shouted to retreat. With Liu Hong. Left the main hall.
Obviously, Liu Hong's move was repeated in the school, and he didn't give his courtiers a chance to refute it at all.
By the time He Jin and the others reacted, Emperor Han had already left, leaving only the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, staring at a loss for what to do.
******
Night. In the secret room in the interior of the General's Palace. He Jin jumped like thunder.
"Dong Zhuo bullied me. Kaoru deceived me! ”
In the secret room, there were several people sitting. There is Chen Lin, the landlord of the General's Mansion. Lieutenant Si Li, Cao Peng and Yuan Shao, a soldier of the General's Mansion, have just been recruited into Yang, and are waiting for Cao Cao, the prime minister of Jiguo, to be arranged, as well as Xu You, He Hao, Xun Shuang and others.
In addition, there is a new face.
This person is a celebrity recruited by He Jinxin, and at the same time, one of the eight dragons of the Xun family, surnamed Xun Mingyou, and the word is public.
The men sat quietly in the secret room, not saying a word.
After He Jin finished his fire, Yuan Shao spoke: "General, now that the emperor's will has been issued, I'm afraid it is impossible to change." However, Dong Zhuo has been waiting in Wan County for several months, and he must be in a hurry to ......"
"Originally, were you blaming me?"
Yuan Shao was startled, and hurriedly got up and said, "How dare Shao blame the general?" It's just that some time ago, when Shao went to Wanxian County, he had a conversation with Dong Zhuo. At that time, he was quite grateful for the general's support to him in the past, and even said that if there was no general, there would be no Dong Zhongying. It can be seen that this person still misses the old, otherwise he would not be able to say such a thing. ”
Cao Cao's eyes opened and he glanced at Yuan Shao.
He and Yuan Shao knew each other in their early years, to paraphrase a current phrase, that is called Fa Xiao.
I think that back then, when he and Yuan Shao were in Yang, they were both brave and chivalrous, and they also did a lot of ridiculous things together.
He has seen Dong Zhuo, and he has a good impression of Dong Zhuo in his heart.
When talking about Dong Zhuo with his henchmen, Cao Cao even said: "Today's court is out of power, causing chaos in the world." The only people who can help the country tide over the difficulties are, in my opinion, only Lu Zhi and Dong Zhuo from Jizhou. ”
However, he doesn't think that Dong
out of such words.
Why did Yuan Shao help Dong Zhuo say good things? Cao Cao's details narrowed, and he calculated in his heart. He also knows Yuan Shao very well, this person has a good reputation, but he has some rebelliousness. boasts of being noble, and looks down on people in the poor. Now he is willing to say good things for a good family in six counties, which only shows one problem, and he can profit from it.
It's just that Cao Cao just joined He Jin's small group, but he couldn't say anything, and he didn't express his opinion at the moment.
He Jin's eyes flashed, "Dong Zhongying...... Did he really say those things? ”
"How dare Shao deceive General Yu?"
He Jin sat down, held the table with his hand, and thought to himself: Could it be that I did a little too much?
Thinking about it, Dong Zhuo also saved his father, and the old lady He could survive. It has a relationship with Xun Zhuo's father and son.
Maybe I'm going too far!
He Jin pondered for a moment, "Then what should we do?" ”
Yuan Shao said: "Today, the emperor suddenly restarted the state pastor, which shows that the emperor is already dissatisfied with us, and even has some suspicions. Therefore, it is better not to go against the emperor now, it will not benefit us at all. It is because of this that the eunuch temple has been favored by the emperor, we might as well push the boat along the river, and let Dong Zhuo fight with the Qiang people, but we can show favor to Dong Zhuo. For example, if you give some convenience in all aspects, presumably Xun Zhuo will not fail to understand the good intentions of the great general. ”
"Now it's the only way to go!"
Cao Cao suddenly spoke: "The original words are not unreasonable. If Zuo Zhonglang wins the battle, it is indispensable for your support, general; If he loses, it's easy...... Hehe, throwing the sins to the ten permanent servants is Dong Zhuo recommended by them. When the time comes, the general can help again and secretly pull Dong Zhuo, how can he not return to his heart? ”
He Jin listened. Nodding again and again, "Meng De's words are very good, very good. ”
Yuan Shao glanced at Cao Cao and said in his heart: This Cao Jili looks like he has become much more sensible than before.
At this time, Xu You stood up.
"What Ben Chu and Meng De said makes sense, but Dong Zhuo is a wolf. If he succeeds in this way, I am afraid that he will still pose a threat to the general in the future. You know, a wolf king returned to the wolf's den. Come out again. But it's just a pack of wolves. ”
Yuan Shao nodded lightly, "What Ziyuan said is not unreasonable. ”
He Jin's brain is a little insufficient. One moment to use, another moment to guard, how can there be so many twists and turns in the stomachs of these people?
"Then you say. What to do? ”
"Turn wolves into watchdogs. The best thing to do is to tie him a rope. ”
Cao Cao didn't like Xu Youdi's analogy. The bad guys are also people who have made great contributions to the court. What kind of thing are you, Xu Ziyuan? Is it okay to be jealous? The guy who only knows how to calculate others in the shadows, and compares others to watchdogs?
It's just that. He couldn't speak.
First, he and Xu Yu are also old acquaintances, and secondly, He Jin, Yuan Shao and others seem to think so.
In the entire secret room, only Xun Shuang and Xun You did not react, like an old monk sitting in meditation, without saying a word.
"The rope Ziyuan said is ......"
"I heard that Dong Zhuo now has only one son under his knees, that is, the Xun Yu who is called the general of the tiger and wolf. Why don't you recruit him into the yang? It is said that Xun Zhuo is quite fond of his son, and with the tiger and wolf general Yang, Dong Zhuo is probably ...... Hehe, if he wants to disobey the general, he has to think twice, after all, his son is in the hands of the general. ”
This is a hostage!
He Jinyi frowned, and said in his heart: Will this make Zhong Ying unhappy?
But then I thought about it: if he really belongs to me and let his son come, there must be no problem. As long as he does not live up to me, I will keep his son prosperous and safe. There is a way not to do bad things, and you are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door.
"That's a clever move!"
Yuan Shao nodded, "Just let the tiger and wolf general enter Beijing in the name of peace?" ”
He Hao suddenly spoke: "The official can't be too big, but let Dong Zhuo feel that the general attaches great importance to him." Important positions cannot be given to him, and at the same time this person must be able to do things for the general. Originally, I was going to wronged you. ”
Yuan Shao was stunned, "Wronged me? ”
Speaking of which, Yuan Shao, He Hao, and Xu You, the relationship between the three is very good.
Before Yuan Shao came out, the two of them had intersected with him and became acquainted with him, which was very close. Therefore, He Hao did not speak politely.
He pondered for a while and said, "Please let Cao Peng do it for the tiger and wolf general." ”
Bing Cao Peng is a chief official belonging to the General's Mansion and is in charge of the private soldiers of the General's Mansion. Above the court, this official position is nothing. However, the most important thing is that Bing Cao Peng's main responsibility is to maintain the security of the General's Mansion.
Xu You said: "Boqiu, this is an official position of 300 stones, and the child is said to be only fifteen years old. ”
"What if you are fifteen?"
He Hao said: "The private soldiers of the General's Mansion are all serving the General, and he can't take them away." But he is the chief officer who guards the General's Mansion, which can be regarded as explaining to Dong Zhuo how much the general trusts him. I just don't know if I'm willing to be wronged? ”
Yuan Shao was a little unhappy, but since He Hao said it, he couldn't help it.
smiled at the moment: "It's all about doing things for the general, if you have any grievances, you can't be wronged." Besides, the Dong family tiger son must not have wronged the official position of this soldier Cao Peng. ”
He Jin nodded again and again, "Originally, he was really a broad-minded person...... In that case, then do as he is told. ”
The group discussed it properly and left with their own farewells.
Yuan Shao caught up with He Hao outside the door, and said softly: "Boqiu, why did you want me to go to the official position of Bing Cao Peng?" ”
"Just a soldier Cao Peng, can you see it in your eyes?"
He Hao said with a smile: "When you went to Wanxian County, it wasn't also to win over Dong Zhuo. For the sake of your Yuan family's major affairs, can't you bear this grievance? ”
Yuan Shao was startled and looked at He Hao.
"Don't panic at the beginning, Master Taifu's thoughts, I see it in my eyes and put it in my heart. You and I have been friends for many years, I will not harm you, but I am willing to help you. The court is out of power, and perhaps it is time to make some changes. ”
"Ask for ......"
"With your move, you can marry Dong Zhuo, and second, you can also make the general owe you a favor."
"Please elaborate on it."
"I heard that the emperor is now dissatisfied with both the forbidden army and the northern army, and plans to set up a new army. If the new army is formed, why not ask the general to find a position for you? Instead of being a chief official in the General's Mansion, how can you be happy with the military horse in your hands? If you take a step back today, the general will inevitably send you two steps forward tomorrow. Between this advance and retreat, the original can be understood! ”
Yuan Shao shook his head to the ground, "Bo asks for great talent, Shao is grateful." ”
