Zhang Rang sneered twice and said: "Originally, I was still thinking, the kid surnamed Li is sensible and can make great contributions, we have to reward others, but I am afraid that the wastes in the court will oppose it, so I can't make up my mind for a long time, for fear that he will make some trouble again, now that he has this sheepskin, then everything is fine, there is no need for us to speak, then He Jin will have to help him desperately ask for an official, maybe he will have to give a Hou Ye, let the boy surnamed Li be the boss!" ”

The eunuchs laughed together, and Cao Jie said, "That kid surnamed Li is going to work against He Jin?" What note did he leave behind, Brother Zhang took it out and let us all take a look, how about it? ”

"Just going to show you!" As Zhang Rang spoke, he took out the note written by Li Qin from his sleeve and put it on the table for the eunuchs to read.

When the eunuchs saw it, they all marveled, Cao Jie slapped the table, crackled, and shouted: "This is going to die with He Jin, not the enemy of the moon, the kid surnamed Li...... So what kind of enmity does General Li have with He Jin? ”

When I don't look at the notes, I just feel that Li Qin is just a local military attache who wants to talk to them, very ordinary, very ordinary, but after reading the notes, Cao Jie immediately felt that Li Qin was too good at being a man, he was simply a good friend of their eunuchs, a good brother, he must be respected, he must be cultivated well, and he is not called a boy surnamed Li, but General Li.

The other eunuchs also nodded, and looked at Zhang Rang together, all wanting to know what kind of enmity Li Qin had with He Jin, and dared to leave a note, which is equivalent to being iron-hearted, and he wants to fight with He Jin endlessly, such a good friend, a good helper, where to find it?

Zhang Rang frowned and said: "This, it's not particularly clear, but when Zhang Rang came back, he said that this Li Qin seems to be Li Guang's descendant, maybe he is boasting, but this kind of thing can't be verified, so he can only be regarded as Li Guang's descendant!" ”

The eunuchs looked at each other, Li Guang's descendants? Li Guang is not a big man, if he pretends to be a famous person, he has to find a more famous person who has never made a mistake, such as Zhang Liang, why do you want to pretend to be Li Guang's descendant!

Cao Jie said with a smile: "Since General Li is willing to recognize Li Guang as an ancestor, why don't we help him and help him confirm this identity?" ”

The eunuchs nodded together and said with a smile: "This is natural, it's a trivial matter, we will definitely be able to help!" ”

Zhang Rang smiled and said, "I think that kid surnamed Li is going to soar!" ”

Cao Jie said: "What Brother Zhang said is wrong, it's General Li!" ”

The eunuchs laughed together: "Yes, it's General Li!" ”

Zhang Rang smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes, it's General Li, he is our own person, we have to respect it!" ”

The next day.

Emperor Liu Hong usually hardly goes to the court, only when a specific day is a big court meeting, he will reluctantly sit in the court for a while, do his duty as an emperor, usually he has anything, are handed over to the ten permanent servants or how to go in, it is not easy for ordinary ministers to see him.

After going to the court, Liu Hong yawned, waved his hand at Zhang Rang, who was standing aside, Zhang Rang bent down and whispered in agreement, took a step forward, stood on the side of the dragon case, and said loudly: "Something to start, nothing to retreat!" ”

None of the ministers squeaked, and they wouldn't say anything in the court, they looked at He Jin who was standing at the front together, waiting for He to enter and leave the class, and talk about the war in Liangzhou, which is the biggest thing in recent years.

He Jin coughed and thought, "How should I start playing, I have to let Zhang let them express their opinions first, but how can I let them express their opinions first?" These people are so slick and slick, maybe they want to hear my opinion first, right? ”

After Zhang Rang finished saying that he had nothing to do and retreated, he didn't squeak, but he looked at He Jin, glanced at He Jin very contemptuously, and turned his face away, as if he glared at He Jin more, it was the same thing.

He Jin suddenly saw Zhang Rang coming towards him with contempt, and immediately became furious, his temper was rude, and he couldn't stand the anger of others for him, Zhang Rang, a bastard eunuch, dared to despise himself, of course he had to despise him well, but unfortunately Zhang Rang didn't look at him anymore, so he couldn't be contemptible.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the hall, shouting: "A messenger from the Huns has arrived!" "Liu Jiu is only a Xiongnu king, not Shan Yu, his envoys can only be called messengers, not envoys.

Zhang Rang hurriedly turned around and bent down to look at Liu Hong, Liu Hong sighed and said, "The messenger of the Huns? It's not the time to pay tribute, so why did it come? ”

The messenger outside was arranged by Zhang Rang, not the real Huns, and the Hun messenger who came to deliver the letter had already been sent by Zhang Rang to put it in a sack, tie a few big stones, and sink into the river outside the city. Zhang Rang has always been ruthless in his work, what is Liu Jiu, the king of the Huns, and Liu Ba, he doesn't care. In order to prevent the messenger from telling some "truth", simply die, and then send someone to pretend to be a messenger, and then pretend to go out of the city and return to the grassland in broad daylight after speaking, and then what should I do, if Liu Jiu sends someone to ask the messenger again, he will say that the messenger went out of the Han border safely, but was killed by the Wuhuan people on the grassland, and asked Liu Jiu to find the Wuhuan people to settle accounts!

Zhang Rang put on a smiling face and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to announce that messenger to the palace?" ”

Liu Hong hummed and said, "Then announce it, let's see what tribute Shan Yu sent to me, it is estimated that it is a horse again, and he will not send anything else except a horse." ”

Zhang Rang said presciently: "It sounds like a messenger, not an envoy, and it is estimated that it is not just a person sent!" He turned around and shouted: "Xuan Xiongnu messenger to the temple!" ”

Liu Hong frowned, it was not Shan Yu's envoy, so it would be boring if he couldn't see it.

Xiao Huangmen shouted out one after another, and after a while, a big man with a full face and beard arrived outside the hall, and before he could enter the hall, he knelt down outside, and shouted: "Wronged, please the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, for my Hun people!" ”

As soon as Liu Hong heard this, he was even more annoyed, not just the people who were sent, he was quite unhappy, the people sent by the Huns have always been rewarded, and the tribute was very small, so he naturally didn't want to see it, he was so short of money that he sold his official position, can he still wait to see the people who asked him for money, as for the complaint, he was even more annoyed, the Huns called back and forth, what are you looking for him, the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

As an emperor, the Han Dynasty was in the hands of Liu Hong to complete decay, he did not care about the affairs of the grassland like his ancestors, he was not even willing to take care of the affairs of the Han Dynasty himself.

Zhang Rang looked at Liu Hong again and whispered, "Your Majesty, if you are tired, why don't you let the old slave deal with it?" ”

"If you can think about me, you can handle it!" Liu Hong had the heart to go back to the apse, but after thinking about it, he still didn't get up, anyway, the Hun messenger also lay down, it was better to listen to what he said, he could go back and talk to the concubines with something new, talk about the unhappy things of the Huns, and make the concubines in the palace happy.

Don't look at Zhang Rang's name is Rang, he doesn't mean to be humble at all, he directly called the fake messenger to the palace, took the parchment letter, put it in front of Liu Hong's table, and the two monarchs and ministers read it together.

Liu Hong saw it, and suddenly smiled: "It turns out that it wasn't the Huns who beat themselves up, it was our people who beat them, this Li Qin is very powerful, but I don't know if the tribute has been sent to Beijing?" ”

He didn't care about the life or death of the Huns, in order to make money, as the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he even set up the "Four Gardens Selling Officials", openly selling officials, and even the officials he began to sell openly, what else did he care, let alone care about the Huns.

Zhang Rang said with a surprised face: "Your Majesty, this Li Qin is extremely evil, and after committing the crime of Li Ling, he actually robbed and killed the Huns and killed two Gudu Marquis, he is so bold, he can't be spared!" ”

Liu Hong glanced at the messenger lying on his stomach below, and thought: "It's just a matter of killing a few Huns, what's the big deal, and it's still Liu Jiu's Huns, if Liu Jiu really had a way to take Li Qin, he would have started fighting a long time ago, and he wouldn't have sent someone to Luoyang at all. ”

As soon as Zhang Rang spoke like this, it was actually equivalent to showing his attitude, he wanted to clean up Li Qin, which is normal, he saw which general was not pleasing to the eye, so he would clean it up, and often did this!

But He Jin below was in a hurry, he immediately went out of work, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to say, the minister has several battle reports here, just because the results of the battle have not come out some time ago, so the minister has not dared to present it to the emperor, for fear that the emperor will be troubled by this, and now that the results of the battle have come out, the minister dares to take it out and present it to the emperor!" ”

After that, he took out the battle reports from his sleeve, handed them to Xiao Huangmen, and presented them to Liu Hong. Liu Hong opened the battle report and read it one by one, Zhang Rang didn't bother, he already knew about it, earlier than He Jin knew.

Liu Hong read the war report and said with a smile: "That's right, just now I was thinking, with the wolf ambition of the Huns, if you can beat Li Qin, how can you not fight, this is defeated, so I came to the wicked to sue first!" ”

What he thought in his heart just now, coupled with the confirmation of the current battle report, doesn't it show that he, the emperor, is very prescient, and things should be like this!

He Jin said loudly: "Your Majesty, this big victory, the ministers were still a little unconvinced, but now Liu Jiu, the king of the Huns, actually sent someone to complain, which can prove that everything written in the battle report is true, then Li Qin has indeed won a big victory, and he should be rewarded heavily, not punished heavily!" ”

Zhang Rang sneered in his heart, this He Jin is really a straw bag, just to oppose it, as if we can get any benefit from doing him. He said: "Your Majesty, even if you say that these battle reports are true, but Li Qin is a criminal official, after Li Ling, he claims that his ancestor is General Fei, which is called tending to be inflammatory, how can such a character be a marquis?" ”

In the court, when the other ministers heard this, they all thought in their hearts: "How can it be that it is up to the marquis, is it possible that Li Guang can't be the marquis, but the marquis will fall to his descendant Li Qin?" It seems that He Jin is going to be fooled! "Many people already understand what is going on, but no one squeaks, the gods fight, and mortals do not mix!

He Jin was provoked by Zhang Rang, and he didn't even think about it, so he immediately refuted it, saying: "It has been a hundred years since Li Ling committed the crime, and the first emperors have not pursued it, and the emperor himself does not have to pursue it." Li Qin has made great contributions, and the Liangzhou Assassin Shi and the captain of Sili have praised him as good, which proves that his character is not bad, how can he not be a marquis? The minister thought that Li Qin could be named the Marquis of Guannei! ”
