Chapter 30: He Jin dies
Gao Ye, who came out of Cai Yong's mansion, except for being a little lonely, didn't have any other more negative emotions. www.biquge.info After all, Cai Yan has long been mentally prepared for Cai Yan's affairs, and now he has obtained such a result, which is also in his expectations, but he has encountered several sets of soldiers who interrogated him about his identity along the way, which really made Gao Ye a little depressed, Luoyang City is not very peaceful, and walking at night by himself is the same as being a traitor.
finally moved back to Cao Cao, and without saying hello to Cao Cao, he returned to his room alone to rest. I drank a little too much, so how can I not sleep for a while.
Gao Ye slept sweetly on this night, but some people didn't have so good luck. For example, Zhang Rang, because of the arrival of Gao Ye and Ding Yuan, the whole person was in an extremely nervous state, and he even asked his subordinates to go where to go and ask for guilt. is called pleading, in fact, it is to find out He Jin's attitude towards himself and others. It's just a pity that although He Jin's attitude is very tough, Yuan Shao next to him is even more fierce, and he actually suggested that He Jin directly arrest these yellow gates and kill them.
However, He Jin did not agree with Yuan Shao's idea, but put those little yellow doors back into the palace, which made Zhang Rang even more worried, then He Jin may now be taking into account the stability of the court and the face of his sister Empress Dowager He, so he temporarily let go of his own people, and after a while, after the court is completely stabilized from the change of emperor, I am afraid that He Jin will definitely do it to himself and others. Even if he doesn't do it, Yuan Shao and the others will definitely do it. At this time, how can you not strike first?
When Gao Ye went to visit Cai Yong, Zhang Rang went to his son, because his daughter-in-law was the sister of Empress Dowager He. He didn't go there to ask his daughter-in-law to protect him, because he knew that even Empress Dowager He couldn't protect herself, let alone a powerless woman? He had already made a plan in his heart, a plan to kill He Jin.
When Zhang Rang saw his daughter-in-law, he actually knelt down unusually, which frightened his daughter-in-law, He. I have always bowed down to my father-in-law to say goodbye, when did my high-ranking father-in-law actually kneel down for himself? I was about to help Zhang Rang up.
I only heard Zhang Rang crying: "The general can't tolerate our family now, and wants our family to leave the palace and return to his hometown." It's just that... It's just that our family has served the emperor for so many years, and the time to serve the queen mother is not short, and I want to leave now, I am reluctant to give up, I just hope that you can be considerate and considerate of your father-in-law and me, let our family and I go to see the queen mother and Your Majesty again, and let our family and I meet them, in this way, even if I die, I will have no complaints. ”
"Father-in-law, hurry up, my brother he, he will definitely not do anything to you. When we first came here, we received the favor of my father-in-law, and I went to ask him, and he would definitely agree. ”
"Although the general still has some old feelings for our family, none of the people around him want to kill the head of our family. If you are really willing to help me, go and beg the Queen Mother, beg Wuyangjun, and let the old minister and others see the Queen Mother and Your Majesty again, and fulfill the old minister's wish. ”
After Zhang Rang begged the He family, he had to go back home and wait for news, as for Duan Qi and the others, they had already gathered to Zhang Rang, since everyone was a grasshopper on a rope, they naturally had to plan carefully together to see how they could escape from death. Zhang Rang looked out the window alone, hoping that this He family could bring him good news.
Zhang Rang, who hadn't slept all night, was full of exhaustion and weakness in front of He's face, an old man who knew his destiny, he hadn't slept all night, plus he had a lot of worries, and disaster was coming, it should have been like this, and this appearance made He feel sorry for his father-in-law. But fortunately, the father-in-law came to ask for his own matter, and there was a good result, and the Empress Dowager He finally couldn't bear it, agreed to Zhang Rang's request, and saw them again.
When Zhang Rang heard the news, he was even more grateful, and thanked his daughter-in-law vigorously, which made He feel even more unbearable, but he just told Zhang Rang that he would definitely ask his brother to ask for help, so that his father-in-law could rest assured. It's just that as soon as He left, Zhang Rang's fatigue immediately disappeared without a trace, and he immediately ordered Xiao Huangmen to go to He Jinfu to announce the will of the Queen Mother, and Xuan He entered the palace to talk. He also asked Duan Jue to lead fifty martial eunuchs, each with a blade, and ambushed him in the Jiade Hall of the Queen Mother's Changle Palace, and killed him as long as He Jin came in.
But said that Gao Ye was early in the morning, practiced martial arts, and ate breakfast, Cao Cao said goodbye to Gao Ye first, and went to the General's Mansion to order Mao, as for Gao Ye, he went to Cai Yong's house again, after all, he said it yesterday, and today he will write down the score of yesterday's song for Cai Yong, and Gao Ye is going to do this today. After all, I didn't prepare any gifts when I went yesterday, and I didn't want to lose face, so I said that I wanted to use this song as a gift for Cai Yong.
Let's say that Cao Cao and others were in the General's Mansion, and suddenly a small yellow door came to pass the decree, and it turned out that the Empress Dowager He wanted He to enter the palace for a while. To be honest, He Jin's relationship with his sister has become much colder now, because of the ten permanent servants, he and his sister Empress Dowager He are very unhappy. Moreover, the current Empress Dowager He no longer trusts her brother as much as before, perhaps because her power is too great. Empress Dowager He was not worried that He Jin would become the second Huo Guang, because she knew that her brother was not so capable. But he was worried that his son would become the next Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, because He Jin was in power, like a thorn in his back, and finally planted the root cause. Therefore, she is still happy to see the existence of eunuchs. After all, there is a eunuch and He Jin sharing power, and he will not be like Huo Guang in the future, and in the end, he will be beheaded.
But He Jin didn't understand her hard work, and he had to kill Zhang Rang and others, and he persuaded him many times to no avail. In fact, how did she know that He Jin could no longer control his own behavior, because even if he was unwilling, his subordinates would be willing for him. And most of his subordinates are attached to him in order to eradicate the eunuchs, if he makes it clear that Zhang Rang can't be killed, not to mention that they will be separated from him, I'm afraid that his future life will be even more sad. Not only did Zhang Rang and others hate him to the core, but even the scholar class parted ways with him. At that time, he was a general who was born to kill pigs, and it was difficult to move forward in this court.
Now the Empress Dowager He has summoned herself to the palace, which shows that there is a sense of repair. Anyway, he has already expelled the ten permanent servants and others from his dormitory, and if he goes there now, there should naturally be no problem. As for the ten permanent servants, let's think about it again. My sister is right, she has the power alone, but I'm afraid that there will be no good end in the end.
He took the order, sent Xiao Huangmen away, and was just about to set off, but was stopped by his own master Chen Lin: "General, now that you want to go to the Queen Mother, you have to be more careful, I am afraid that the Ten Standing Servants have a secret plan." ”
"The ten permanent servants were all driven out of the Empress Dowager's palace, and Zhang Rang, Duan Qi and others were not allowed to enter the imperial city without an order, so it should be okay."
"Has the general forgotten what Gao Taishou said the day before yesterday? The general is still careful. Cao Cao hurriedly said, "You can summon the ten permanent servants first, and then the general will enter the palace to see the queen mother." ”
Unexpectedly, He Jin laughed and said: "Meng De, I He Jin now control the soldiers and horses in the world, and Ding Jianyang and Gao Mingxi are in Luoyang, what can the ten permanent servants do to me?" Do not worry. Well, what you said is true, and there is nothing wrong with being careful. ”
"Exactly, General, and after a while, Meng De and I will go and gather all the men and horses to escort the General into the palace." Yuan Shao also got up and said at this time. He Jin responded well, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao went straight to the camp, and even ordered 500 people, and Yuan Shao even brought his younger brother Yuan Shu to act with them. This is actually Yuan Shao's kindness, he wants to use such an opportunity to let his younger brother enter the eyes of the general, so that he can be promoted and make a fortune in the future.
Yuan Shu naturally won't let go of this opportunity, although he looks down on his brother on weekdays, but there is no way, his father and uncle are very fond of Yuan Shao, and he can't do anything to him on weekdays. Now that Yuan Shao is kind, he gives himself a chance, and he can't let it go, because only by letting himself mix better than Yuan Shao can he let the elders of the Yuan family know that his sister-in-law is a hundred times stronger than Yuan Shao!
Yuan Shao and Cao Cao each put on their helmets and armor, and each led five hundred armor soldiers, escorting He into the palace all the way, until they walked outside the Qingzuo Gate, and they were stopped by the guards of the palace city, after all, how could these soldiers and horses enter the palace. He Jin and the others also knew that this was the rule, and they were more worried about the ambush of the Ten Standing Servants along the road. After all, they didn't know that Zhang Rang and the others were now in the palace of the Queen Mother.
Yuan Shao ordered Yuan Shu to temporarily lead the 1,000 men and horses, and arrange troops outside the Qingzuo Gate to intimidate the Queen Mother and the eunuchs in the palace, so that they would not dare to act rashly. As for Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, they took ten soldiers and sent He Jin straight to the outside of the Jiade Palace, but they were stopped by two little eunuchs: "The Queen Mother is a special general, and the rest are not allowed to enter." ”
He Jin didn't say anything, in fact, he was right, he and the Queen Mother were brother and sister, so it naturally didn't hurt to go to her bedroom. Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are both ministers after all, and it is normal for their sisters not to want them to come in. Therefore, he ordered these people to wait here, and he himself strode with his head held high and went directly into the Hall of the Garde.
As the door of the Jiade Hall closed, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's hearts couldn't help but rise. Cao Cao always felt that something was wrong, but he really didn't know what was wrong, so he immediately instructed his henchmen around him to immediately go to Cai Yong's house to find Gao Ye, tell him what happened today, and let him be prepared.
Gao Ye, who was talking freely at Cai Yong's house, couldn't help frowning after listening to the man's report, and shouted that it was not good. Then he handed over his hand and said to Cai Yong: "This time something is a big deal, Master Cai, Mingxi, I have to leave now, and I will visit another day." ”
Cai Yong didn't think much about it when he heard that the general was summoned into the palace by the Queen Mother, but seeing that Gao Ye's expression didn't seem to be fake, he naturally let Gao Ye leave. It's just that when Gao Ye led the horse out of Cai's mansion, the shouts of killing also reached here.
