Chapter 218: Antecedents and Consequences

When Tang Zhou appeared in the suburban manor under Zhang Rang's name, Liu Xin thought clearly about the cause and effect of the whole thing, to be precise, why Tang Zhou betrayed the Yellow Turban Army. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

If nothing else, Tang Zhou should be Zhang Rang's cronies, and when Zhang Rang noticed that Zhang Jiao's Taiping Road was growing stronger, Zhang Rang couldn't sit still, so he sent Tang Zhou to Zhang Jiao's subordinates as an undercover agent.

With Zhang Rang's support, Tang Zhou quickly gained Zhang Jiao's trust and got acquainted with Ma Yuanyi, and the journey was smooth, and soon became a middle and senior leader in the Yellow Turban Army, and began to come into contact with the internal secrets of the Yellow Turban Army.

At this time, Tang Zhou had already discovered Zhang Jiao's ambitions, so Tang Zhou immediately contacted Zhang Rang and told Zhang Rang the secret.

After Zhang Rang learned the news, he was naturally extremely shocked, after all, Zhang Jiao should be just a god from the countryside in his mind, relying on some fictitious tricks to deceive those foolish people, but he didn't expect Zhang Jiao to have the ambition to overthrow the Han.

However, Zhang Rang should also be in a period of confusion now, thinking about his own retreat after the death of Emperor Han Ling, after all, Emperor Han Ling, who is addicted to desire, already looks like he will die at any time, and Zhang Rang must leave a way back for himself.

And the most important point among them is the issue of the heirs of Emperor Han Ling.

Although there are many sons of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, most of them died young, except for Liu Bian, who was raised outside the palace, and Liu Biao was born to Empress He, and Liu Bian's uncle was He Jin!

Zhang Rang naturally knew He Jin's attitude towards him, and he definitely wanted to find a chance to kill him, so after the death of Emperor Han Ling, as long as Liu Wei succeeded to the throne, He Jin would have the opportunity to kill himself, no, it should be said that he would definitely lead troops into the palace and take his own head.

What's more, Liu Wei is young, He Jin, as a general, is also Liu Bian's uncle, after Liu Wei succeeds to the throne, He Jin will definitely become the regent, and his family will also be implicated at that time, which Zhang Rang does not want to see.

As a result, Zhang Rang was silent about Zhang Jiao's conspiracy, and he had to think about what position he should maintain in this matter in order to obtain the most benefits.

Because of this, Zhang Rang's attitude towards the Yellow Turban Army began to be ambiguous, and he continued to arrange for Tang Zhou to go undercover under Zhang Jiao.

But at this moment, another son of Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Xie, was born.

Liu Xie is the son of Wang Meiren, and Zhang Rang didn't care about Liu Xie's affairs at first, because Zhang Rang, who was proficient in court affairs, knew very well that it was impossible for Queen He to watch Liu Xie grow up well and threaten her son's status.

But for some reason, in 184 AD, Liu Xie was still alive and well (among them, there were also reasons why Empress Dowager Dong personally raised Liu Xie, so that Empress He did not dare to act easily), and was deeply loved by Emperor Han Ling (because Liu Xie had been raised in the palace, and Liu Wei grew up in a Taoist hall outside the palace, so Emperor Han Ling and Liu Xie were closer), so at this time, Zhang Rang also began to have a new idea, and even some crazy ideas.

That is to support Liu Xie to inherit the unification!

Liu Xin had to admit that Zhang Rang's idea was very crazy, but it was very successful, after all, Emperor Ling of Han was closer to Liu Xie than Liu Wei, and the ten permanent servants were close to Emperor Ling of Han.

As long as the plan is successful, Zhang Rang will have the opportunity to oppose the first army and find He Jin to "talk about life", and he can also control the young Liu Xie, the regent, to reach the peak of life.

So at this time, when Zhang Rang received the latest news from Tang Zhou and learned that Zhang Jiao was preparing to rebel, Zhang Rang made up his mind to expose Zhang Jiao's conspiracy.

As a result, Tang Zhou reported to He Jin under Zhang Rang's arrangement, thus forcing Zhang Jiao to launch the Yellow Turban Uprising in advance.

It's just that Zhang Rang didn't expect that he didn't make Zhao Gao in the end, if Zhang Rang could predict the future, maybe Zhang Rang would choose to take refuge in Zhang Jiao, help Zhang Jiao capture Luoyang, and capture Emperor Han Ling, and then history would be different.

Liu Xin, who figured out all this, couldn't help but touch his chin, sure enough, the people's hearts were not enough to swallow the elephant, Zhang Rang actually chose a path with huge returns, but the risk was greater, and the result backfired, Zhang Rang's plan to support Liu Xie's succession was declared a failure, and he committed suicide by throwing himself into the river, and in the end all this made a wedding dress for Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo can be regarded as "repaying the peach" and fulfilling Zhang Rang's last wish.

It's all ironic.

However, it is the beginning of 181 AD, and Liu Xie has not yet been born, so Liu Xin speculates that Zhang Rang's current attitude is either ambiguous or biased towards Zhang Jiao, and if he wants to expose Zhang Jiao, he must cross the hurdle of Zhang Rang.

And now Tang Zhou, who is on the outskirts of Luoyang, is naturally targeted by Liu Xin.

Tang Zhou is an important person in exposing Zhang Jiao, if nothing else, Tang Zhou has now gained Zhang Jiao's trust and obtained a lot of information, if Liu Xin can win over Tang Zhou, this will be of great help to Liu Xin's next plan!

After all, although Liu Xin now knows that Zhang Jiao will launch the Yellow Turban Uprising in 184 AD, no one else knows it, and according to the prompts of the task query system, Zhang Jiao has now germinated an ambition to overthrow the Han Dynasty, but Zhang Jiao has not yet begun to organize the Yellow Turban Uprising, so Liu Xin believes that among the information that Tang Zhou currently has, there is no news about Zhang Jiao's intention to rebel.

This also means that Zhang Rang can't deduce that Zhang Jiao intends to rebel now, which is very important news, because this shows that the initiative is still in Liu Xin's hands!

If Zhang Rang already knew the information that Zhang Jiao planned to rebel, then Liu Xin would not be able to fool Zhang Rang casually; But if Zhang continues to think that Zhang Jiao is just a Taoist priest who develops believers, then Liu Xin will have the confidence to let Zhang be crippled, and the task of exposing Zhang Jiao will be much smoother at that time.

Therefore, Tang Zhou will be an important figure in deciding all this, and Liu Xin must find a way to win Tang Zhou over.

Of course, if Tang Zhou was unwilling to use it for himself, Liu Xin had to take measures to shut up Tang Zhou, so as not to affect his plan.

As for what Zhang Rang thinks after Tang Zhou's disappearance, it is not for Liu Xin to consider, but if Zhang Rang still wants to continue his undercover plan, then he must send a subordinate who can be bought by Liu Xin, otherwise those subordinates who are not qualified will die like Tang Zhou.

Liu Xin used his mobile phone to record Tang Zhou's location, preparing to see Tang Zhou as soon as possible to see if Tang Zhou was on the road. (To be continued.) )
