Chapter 15 Danger lurks
The new army was newly built, and the eight schools of the West Park each led 10,000 tigers, and 80,000 elites held swords Huohuo, and the momentum shook the sky for a while, and the general He Jin mastered the five battalions of the northern army Yulin, and the prestige of the Beijing division was gone forever.
Yang Yi knew very well that the reason why Emperor Han Ling expanded the new army, in addition to strengthening the strength of the imperial city to further control the military power, more importantly, planned to let the second son Liu Xie ascend the throne smoothly, who let the eldest son who grew up outside the palace be frivolous and undignified, and Emperor Han Ling preferred the intelligent and witty Liu Xie.
It's just that it is not easy to support Liu Xie's ascension to the throne, not to mention the tradition of establishing the long and not the young and the opposition of the ministers, but more importantly, the eldest son is He Jin's nephew, and the Northern Army under He Jin is mighty.
It's just that the establishment of the Eighth School of the West Garden is also the product of the trade-off of rights and interests, especially when Cao Cao was the lieutenant of Luoyang North, he once killed Uncle Jian Shuo.
The festival is a festival, but if you want the eight schools of the West Garden to be established smoothly and balance all aspects of the forces is also the meaning of Emperor Han Ling, although Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are the former officials of the general He Jin, the family forces behind them have to be considered, even if Jian Shuo is unwilling, he can only compromise.
In this way, the captain of the Eighth School of the West Park seems to be under the command of the captain of the military academy, but the subordinate captains have their own thoughts, if it were not for the authority of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, it seems that Jian Shuo, who was in a high position for a while, could not transfer these subordinate captains at all, and it was not a solid foundation, and it also left a foreshadowing for the future defeat and killing.
It's just that what makes Yang Yi more concerned is that the white eunuch who read the holy decree before, the eunuch who can be ranked next to the emperor, and now only Zhang Rang, the real planner of this eunuch group, is the real person with real power.
Yang Yi was not in the mood to care about when Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and the others would take over the seal of the school captain, standing on the top of the main hall, his thoughts turned rapidly, and any details that emerged could not be let go, especially when Emperor Han Ling's poor health was likely to drive the crane west at any time, and the eunuchs and their relatives met each other.
Yang Yi, who returned to the mansion, still went deep into the simplicity, took the time to go to the Luoyang market workshop in person, looked for and hired skilled craftsmen, and sent Tian Yu to secretly go to the vicinity of Luodu to recruit a small number of refugees from foreign lands.
The workshop established by Yang Yi in the mansion is famous, even if someone enters and leaves the mansion, it does not attract much attention, Yang Yi's purpose is very simple, whether it is a chaotic attack or Dong Zhuo's entry into Beijing, it is difficult to leave from the heavily guarded Luodu.
Thinking of danger in times of peace, Yang Yi planned to use these strengths to dig an underground passage to escape from Luodu, which was also when Yang Yi accepted the reward of Emperor Ling of Han, he impassionedly showed indifference to fame and fortune, and the purpose was just to find a mansion close to the periphery of the city.
Most of these strong people are people who have fled the famine, and most of them are alone without relatives, and even if they disappear suddenly, they will not attract the attention of those who have a heart.
Although he was almost under house arrest, compared to starving to death at any time outside and being killed by rogues at any time, the Gongsun Mansion with food, drink and wages was considered a paradise, and no one insisted on leaving despite complaints.
Fortunately, these people are still aware of current affairs, although Yang Yi can't bear it, but he will never allow the escape secret passage that is related to life and death to leak out, and only the killer can really keep the secret for those who plan to leave.
Putting down the silk silk letter sent by Gongsun Zhan, Yang Yi walked out of the house and stood in the garden, the courtyard that had just fallen in the autumn rain was as bright as new, thinking of the content of the family letter, in addition to a few simple words of praise between the lines, more was a strict discipline, which was a good thing for Yang Yi.
With the delivery of the edict of promotion to Youzhou, Gongsun Zhan paid attention to this son who was almost giving up again because of Gongsun Yi's steady progress.
It's just that Yang Yi, who is the host of Gongsun Yi, is more worried that all parties in the north draw their swords and fight angrily, although Gongsun Chan is powerful, but he has made too many enemies in battles for many years, and in the fourth year of Chuping, he killed Liu Yu, who is wise and wise, and has a special status, which indirectly caused the fate of a fiasco in the future battle with Yuan Shao.
Although Yang Yi has a firm foothold in Luodu, he is really helpless for all things in Youzhou, and it is impossible to change Gongsun Zhan's mind, even if he knows the cause and effect, a little change is a difficult time, and it is even very likely to lead to murder.
Time flies, winter is coming, with the withered yellow leaves flying and circling, Yang Yi has been coming to the eastern capital of Luoyang for several months, above the court, the increasingly weak Emperor Han Ling has long been not in the court, no one pays attention to the disasters in all directions, the yellow turban rekindles resurgence, and the momentum of the siege is great.
There was a lot of friction between the eunuch group and the foreign relatives represented by He Jin in the court, and the court attacked and abused each other, and the degree of chaos was like that of a vegetable market.
The inside and outside of the palace are clearly distinguished, the new army led by Jian Shuo adheres to the inner court, and the outer court is guarded by the five battalions of Yulin led by He Jin.
Although the momentum is comparable, but the eight captains of the West Garden have different hearts, and there are not many elite soldiers that can be mobilized in Jian Shuo's hands, so he can only advise Emperor Han Ling, hoping to make He Jin go west to conquer Bianzhang and Han Sui, and create an opportunity to control the military power of the capital.
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was ill for a long time, and Jian Shuo immediately agreed to what he said, and ordered Zhang Rang, a regular servant, to pass on the edict, but although He Jin was from a vulgar background, how could he not see Jian Shuo's intentions, even if the emperor's order had arrived, he also shirked and did not obey his fate because of his stubborn illness.
At the same time, He Jinzuo asked Yuan Shaodong to attack Xu and Yan Erzhou, saying that when Yuan Shao returned to the army, it was the time for him to enter the west, and Emperor Ling of Han could only agree, and Jian Shuo was helpless.
The undercurrent in the palace is turbulent, Yang Yi in the mansion is comfortable, in addition to talking with a group of skilled craftsmen every day, taking time to secretly inspect the construction of the secret passage leading to the outside of the city, under the careful care of Ning Er, he travels with Cao Cao and others in his spare time.
Although Yuan Shao and Chun Yuqiong were resentful of Yang Yi before, no matter what, Yang Yi's special status at this time is not easy to offend, and Cao Cao's strong recommendation is not easy to compete, and it is quite polite when traveling together.
Cao Cao and the others only cared about the wind and snow, and did not mention the affairs of the imperial court at all, and Yang Yi would not ask boring questions, so he was much closer.
Walking through the streets and alleys, pavilions and pavilions, Yang Yi turned around this Eastern Han metropolis that turned into ruins a few years later.
On this day, between a restaurant with a rather elegant decoration, everyone sat around and drank vigorously, everyone was heavy-minded, and seemed to be heavy-minded, only Yang Yi gulped down the food on the table, anyway, he never had to pay for it with a few local tyrants to eat, drink and have fun.
"The saint is seriously ill, and the court affairs are controlled by eunuchs, what should we do?"
"Meng De, do you know that the general has no intention of making a move?" Yuan Shao on the other side put down his wine glass heavily, both angry and helpless.
"Why don't you take the opportunity to advise the Holy Lord to sacrifice to heaven and take the opportunity to kill the eunuchs?!" Cao Cao lowered his voice and suggested.
Yang Yi smiled helplessly in his heart, Emperor Han Ling's dragon body was ill for a long time, and he didn't even go to the court, where would he go to worship the sky, and the inner court was controlled by eunuchs, and it was difficult to climb to heaven if he wanted to see Emperor Han Ling.
Moreover, this conversation seems to be secret, but in fact, it is obviously intended for him to hear it, Yang Yi's heart is moved, and it is clear that if the eunuch advises Emperor Han Ling not to go out of the palace for a parade, then it can be sure that Gongsun Yi is also a eunuch faction.
This temptation is also a test, it is not a bad thing for Yang Yi, if it is dealt with properly, maybe he can really stand in the same camp as Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.
Yang Yi knew very well that Emperor Ling of Han was about to die, the eunuch backer was about to collapse, and Jian Shuo, who held the new army, would also be betrayed to death.
I saw Yang Yi suddenly get up, glanced at everyone and said loudly: "Today, the eunuchs are making power and messing up the dynasty, resulting in the waste of government affairs and the people's livelihood, my father-in-law Sun Yi swears that he and the eunuchs are incompatible, and from now on, there will be no more to do with it!" ”
Yuan Shao got up and chuckled: "No, it is precisely because we and the eunuchs draw their swords and are angry that it is very difficult to find out the news of the inner court, but you are different, not only are you deeply respected by the saints, but the eunuchs are also very popular, and you are the key to our elimination of the eunuchs." ”
Yang Yi was slightly stunned at first, and then felt a chill in his heart, sure enough, there is no free lunch in the world, although Yuan Shao and the others seem to be willing to accept him to join the Shiliu camp, but in fact, they forced him to become a pawn to infiltrate the inner court, and the seemingly harmonious relationship these days is actually based on this purpose.
It's just that as an internal response, it is not only very dangerous, but it is also very likely to be betrayed when it is successful in the future, Yang Yi can only be trusted by these heroes who turn their faces faster than turning books.
Yang Yi had already sensed the terrible quietness of the surrounding wings, and then looked at Yuan Shao and the others holding my hands on the hilt of the knife, and finally understood that it would be arranged in such a secluded place.
It seems that today's banquet is extremely dangerous, and it is even certain that if they refuse on the spot at this time, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others who are holding the hilt of their swords will definitely do it immediately.
Yang Yi, who was cautious and planned to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, still underestimated the heroism of these future leaders, swallowed the words of evasion, took a deep breath and said loudly: "Since you can trust my Gongsun Yi, don't think you are reckless in the next year, and make a little effort to sweep away the eunuchs." ”
Cao Cao smiled heartily and said to Yuan Shao: "At the beginning, I knew that Gongsun Yi was a loyal man, and he was definitely not a eunuch. He turned to get up and bowed to Yang Yi and said, "The stakes are very high, and I hope to help me wait, a glass of turbid wine can be regarded as an apology." As he spoke, he raised his glass and drank it all.
"Forgive him, don't dare to disobey!" Yuan Shao snorted coldly, his words were full of pride, and Yang Yi naturally understood that because of the grudge against the eastern suburbs school, Yuan Shao still did not let go of it to this day.
In fact, no matter what Yuan Shao and Cao Cao say, Yang Yi doesn't care, whether it is good or used, the important thing is to stand on the winning side.
If the development of the matter is that the eunuch group wins and exterminates all the soldiers, Yang Yi will not hesitate to stand on the side of the eunuchs, there is no right or wrong and morality, just to survive in the gap of the clash of power.
Back at the mansion, Yang Yimeiyu, who was sitting in the study, did not stretch, although he reluctantly agreed, he was caught up in this political whirlpool, he was helpless and angry, but Yang Yi, who had no military power in his hands, was powerless to resist and could only let it go.
But in case Yuan Shao and others asked him to assassinate the eunuch, how to deal with himself, the tunnel has not yet been opened, and a few days ago because of the rush to progress, the tunnel collapsed and killed several laborers.
There is no one in the court, and the recent situation of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty Yang Yi is completely black-eyed, and it is unknown whether He Jin will follow Yuan Shao's advice and cover the foreign soldiers from afar.
If Emperor Yan of Han Ling drove west at this time, the palace was in chaos, and the soldiers came, only dozens of armor soldiers in the mansion would not be able to resist it at all, and in such a dangerous situation, let alone change history as much as possible, I am afraid it would be difficult to even protect themselves.
