Chapter 50: Expansion

Zheng Xuan casually opened the latch on the gate of the grass house, walked into the grass house, and happened to see Lu Zhi sorting flowers in the backyard, and greeted him loudly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Senior brother, this lock of your house is not good! I opened it before I had half a cup of tea. ”

Lu Zhi was wielding a hoe to weed, when he suddenly heard a voice behind him, he trembled in shock, and then he heard a voice that he was very familiar with, and immediately regained his composure, and continued to wave the hoe in his hand, and said without looking back.

"A dignified generation of Confucianism, the skill of sliding the door and picking the lock is so proficient."

"Alas, it's still comfortable for you, you have nothing to do, you can grow the fields, and teach." Zheng Xuan sat on the futon, tidied up his clothes, and said enviously.

Lu Zhi sat opposite Zheng Xuan and smiled, and poured Zheng Xuan a cup of tea: "How can it compare to you traveling all over the world and traveling thousands of miles of life, the teacher sighs to himself, how can Master Zheng, who is as chic as a fairy, have time to come to my cottage?" ”

Zheng Xuan spread his hands: "There's no way, the general is imposing." ”

Lu Zhi: "Oh? ”

Zheng Xuan said: "Two days ago, He Jin sent a hundred armor soldiers to find me, and then I came over. ”

"What is he looking for you?" Lu Zhi smiled, "Do you want to teach him a lesson?" ”

"Stupid you, now their dirty people are spreading their wings!" Zheng Xuan looked at Lu Zhi with disdain.

Lu Zhi was stunned: "Is the Yellow Turban Rebellion over?" ”

Zheng Xuan was speechless: "It's long over, and hundreds of thousands of people were surrendered in Guangzong seven days ago!" How long has it been since you left the cottage? ”

"Uh...... Since being replaced from the front line by the Holy Lord, he has never cared about this world anymore. ”

"Alas, but don't say it, although the little emperor is a bit of a bastard, it's really good to you."

"Hey, let's see if you have a little bit of the ancestor of the world, full of foul language."

Zheng Xuan bowed his hand: "If you travel all over the world, you have to know a little bit about everything." ”

Lu Zhi was speechless: "Then what are you going to do when you come to Luoyang this time?" Do you continue to be an official? ”

Zheng Xuan said: "Why are you making that fun? I don't like their gang of people for money, power, and family. ”

Lu Zhi said, "Then you are still here?" ”

"Damn," Zheng Xuan knocked down the cup, "More than a hundred knives are pointed at you, don't you come in place of you?" ”

"Sneer" Lu Zhi smiled, "It's not that I'm here, what excuse to find." ”

"Who said that," Zheng Xuan blushed and craned his neck and shouted, "I can still leave when I come!" ”

"How to get there?"

"Hey, it's an old routine, promise him that I will be an official, and then go home, and I will be gone when I go to court the next morning."

Lu Zhi asked, "Can you leave?" ”

"Yes!" Zheng Xuan is very confident.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course!" Zheng Xuan said, "Don't you see that I'm not out now? ”

Dizzy, the feelings Zheng Xuan came to Lu Zhi after running out first.

"Hehe, senior brother." Zheng Xuan rubbed his hands and said to Lu Zhi, "You borrowed me to hide in this grass house for a few days." ”

Without waiting for Lu Zhi to speak, Zheng Xuan was busy saying again: "In the past few days, those children of yours have been wrapped up in me, everything like "Zhou Yi", "Shangshu", "Mao's Poems", "Etiquette", "Book of Rites", "Analects", "Book of Filial Piety", ...... These classics that I have noted, Bao Jiao Bao Hui. ”

Lu Zhi smiled bitterly: "I hope I don't want to learn from you." ”

"How is that possible? I'm sixty years old. Zheng Xuan Zhengse, "I will still pretend if I am forced." ”

……

Yang Ci walked into Yuan Kui, who was closing his eyes and recuperating, and said to him: "Master Yuan, the yellow scarf was surrendered a few days ago. ”

Yuan Kui opened his fine eyes slightly, and spoke slowly, a warlock said that people can learn the shape of a beast to obtain beast energy, and the longevity of a turtle lies in slowness, so Yuan Kui kept himself as slow as a turtle all the time: "I already know, what is the loss of each family?" ”

Yang Ci said: "The main trunk is not injured, but many of the backbones who have been trained outside have suffered a lot of losses, after all, there are many clansmen who are at the middle level of the family are serving as city guards or operating shops in small cities outside, so this time our forces in the court have not been damaged, but the forces outside Luoyang have been greatly damaged." ”

"Well," Yuan Kui responded, but he didn't get angry, when he got to this position, he only dealt with things, didn't use emotions, and lost with emotion, "So how about He Jin?" ”

"He Jin mainly guarded Luoyang, and he didn't get much development, and Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song refused Emperor Ling's reward after suppressing the Yellow Turban."

Yuan Kui said in a deep voice: "In this way, the benefits of this suppression of the yellow scarves are all outside, and the losses of our wait are the greatest? ”

Yang Ci's face sank: "Yes, the biggest winner of this Yellow Turban Rebellion is a good family, Dong Zhuo from Liangzhou. ”

Yuan Kui narrowed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking about.

"Regardless of the moment, what can the eunuch do?"

Yang Ci said: "Jian Shuo has a big move recently, he proposed to Emperor Ling, in order to defend Kyoto to form a Xiyuan Army, with eight captains, directly obey the orders of the saint, led by Jian Shuo, and the generals must be under his control. ”

"Oh?" Yuan Kui was surprised, "I'll try our best to get these eight captains." ”

"Well, now the eighth lieutenant has set seven people, namely the upper military captain - Jian Shuo, the middle military captain - Yuan Shao, the lower military captain - Bao Hong, the military captain - Cao Cao, the left lieutenant of the auxiliary army - Zhao Rong, the right lieutenant of the auxiliary army - Feng Fang, the left captain - Xia Mou, and the right lieutenant is temporarily vacant."

"What is the distribution of forces?" Yuan Kui said with a frown.

Yang Ci said: "Jian Shuo belongs to the eunuchs, needless to say, Yuan Gongzi invested in He Jin's door and won He Jin's appreciation, so he got a place, Bao Hong and Zhao Rong from Xiliang should be Dong Zhuo's subordinates, and the counselor Xia Mu is a cold and clear stream, Feng Fang is Cao Jie's son-in-law, and he is the eunuch's secret power, Cao Cao, also cast under He Jinmen. ”

"Dong Zhuo? It's this Dong Zhuo again, how can He De be able to get two places. Yuan Kuma read the word Dong Zhuo in his mouth, bowed his head and pondered.

Yuan Kui said: "No, we have too few people, Shao'er is isolated, and the last candidate must be obtained." ”

Yang Ci said strangely: "Xia Guan heard that Yuan Gongzi and that Cao Cao are young friends, and they should support each other." ”

"......" Yuan Kui was silent.

Yang Ci hurriedly apologized: "The lower official has said too much." ”

Yuan Kui shook his head and said that he was not angry: "Remember, the family never thinks about friendship." ”

"Understood." Then Yang Ci seemed to suddenly remember something and said, "Today, there is a general Zhang Liao who came from the state, who is outstanding in literature and martial arts, and he is also here to compete for the rank of captain." ”

"Ding Yuan?" Yuan Kui's eyes narrowed slightly, "Just because he also wants to put his hand into the imperial capital?" Dong Zhuo even entered the eight lieutenants of the two people, for the country to share worries, but the praise is very great, the Son of Heaven took pity on the ministers, and specially sent the good general Zhang Liao to his tent to talk as a reward. Let Dong Zhuo go and pinch Ding Yuan! ”

After Yang Ci figured out the joints, he said in surprise: "Master Yuan is smart! ”

………

The next day, the eighth captain of the West Garden was decided, and the last captain was Chun Yuqiong, and since then the West Garden Army has been formally established, led by Jian Shuo, and the whole army can be seconded, acting cheaply, only obeying the emperor's orders, not under the jurisdiction of the general, and the limelight is unmatched for a while.

"Master Yuan, the eunuchs are unprecedented, and now they are tyrannical and selling officials, their fathers, brothers and children are all over the world, rampant in the township, and at the same time, He Jin also ordered his henchmen to recruit soldiers on a large scale, and Dong Zhuo has also been

Completely controlled the entire territory of Liangzhou. What do you think of the situation? "Yang Ci came to Yuan's mansion.

Yuan Kuma said: "It's okay, but there is still a little bit to be owed."

"Huh?" Yang Ci looked at Yuan Kuma in bewilderment.

"At this time, both sides have their own gains, and there are no two offenses, they can only grow stronger and not overturned, and we need to create some contradictions for them. It doesn't need to be big, it just needs to have. ”

"Master Yuan has a clever plan?"

Yuan Kuma said quietly: "Serving the imperial Shi Wang Yun, how much do you know about this person?"

Yang Ci said: "That Wang Yun of the Taiyuan royal family?"

Yuan Kuma nodded.

"Wang Yun is jealous and hateful, upright, upright and upright, he can be an example, when he was young, he hated selling officials, and he once fought with the king of Taishou because of the purchase of officials, and was imprisoned but would rather die than give in. These people, though they are among the nobles, are afraid that they will not want to act in the company of us. ”

Yuan Kui shook his head: "Seven days ago, Wang Yun surrendered to the Yellow Turban Army with Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song, and found a letter from Zhang Rang, a regular servant, in the army, which has proof of Zhang Rang's illicit relationship with the Yellow Turban Army, what do you think he will do?" ”

Yang Ci was shocked: "What? It must have been a huge storm. ”

"Wang Yun impeached Zhang Rang, and Zhang Rang's ability will inevitably not be easily overthrown."

"Zhang let this person repay him, but he will put Wang Yun in prison."

"And Wang Yun swore to resist to the death and insisted on overthrowing Zhang Rang, and the momentum of not dying has been achieved."

"Huh?" Yang Ci asked suspiciously: "This is not right, Master Yuan, only Wang Yun and Zhang Rang are opposed, so it is the Wang family who is hurting, or are we suffering?" ”

Yuan Kui cherished the words like gold: "Wang Yunzhi's brother Wang Qian, the general has a long history." ”

Yang Ci clasped his hands: "Wonderful, wonderful." ”

Yuan Kui said again: "Three things. ”

"Master Yuan, please speak."

"First, Wang Yun cannot give in; Second, Wang Yun is a member of my clan and cannot die in our schemes; Third, Wang Qian wants to participate, and he can't wait for himself to intercede for Wang Yun, remember that the friendship I said is unreliable, and you should pay special attention to this aspect. ”

Yang Ci arched his hand: "Master Yuan, please rest assured, watch me wait for the operation." ”

After speaking, Yang Ci retreated into the shadows and left, and Yuan Kui quietly closed his eyes and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Later, as Yuan Kui designed, Wang Yun found the letter, filled with righteous indignation, and wrote to Emperor Ling to impeach Zhang Rang, and then Zhang Rang cried bitterly in front of Emperor Ling and said how loyal he was, saying that Wang Yun deliberately framed him, but let Emperor Ling imprison Wang Yun.

Yang Ci specially entered the prison and persuaded Wang Yun to bow his head to Zhang Rang and admit his mistakes, and temporarily tolerate, but Wang Yun insisted more and more on refuting Zhang Rang's determination, and hated Zhang Rang even more.

Then Wang Qian could no longer sit idly by, and begged to see the general to intercede for Wang Yun, and he came in and out.

He Jin spoke to Emperor Ling, begging for forgiveness Wang Yun, but was stopped back by Zhang Rang with a few words, He Jin was furious, and then someone from the Shi clan found He Jin and suggested that they unite to write to Emperor Ling to intercede for Wang Yun, according to Yuan Kui's script, this matter is over, who would have thought that Emperor Ling still resolutely refused to let go of Wang Yun, and it was determined that Wang Yun framed Zhang Rang, no matter how the ministers lobbied, he was still firm, which made Yang Ci panic for a while, I don't know where he didn't do a good job, so if it dragged on, it was about to come when Wang Yun was asked to be beheaded, and Wang Yun couldn't die, After death, the Taiyuan Wang family will inevitably be estranged, but Emperor Ling refuses to let go, and Wang Yun is stunned and refuses to give in, which is a hurry to kill Yang Ci.

What Yang Ci didn't expect was that although Emperor Ling knew that Zhang Rang was misbehaving and was a disaster for the government and the opposition, there was one thing that Emperor Ling was completely convinced of, that is, Zhang Rang would never betray him, but Yang Ci didn't know, and Yuan Kui couldn't have thought that there would be such a tacit understanding between the emperor and the eunuch, so there was such a big mistake, but the good thing is that the contradiction between He Jin and Zhang Rang has become deeper, and it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

In the end, in desperation, Yang Ci could only ask Yuan Kui to go out of the mountain and He Jin to jointly write a letter to intercede, Yuan Kui, He Jin, Yang Ci, the weight of this book was too great, and Emperor Ling couldn't help but give face, so Wang Yun was released.

Although Wang Yun, who was released from prison, hated the actions of Zhang Rang and others, due to his limited strength, he still learned to endure it, changed his name and surname, left the capital Luoyang, and traveled between Hanoi and Chenliu, and returned to the capital to become an official after a year.
