Chapter 70 The Eighth Captain of the West Garden, which was established in advance
"You are all meritorious men for my Han to exterminate the Yellow Turban bandits."
No one thought that Emperor Han Ling, who went to court for the first time after his illness, was thinking about summoning Wei Tao and other meritorious officials who exterminated the Yellow Turban.
Moreover, as soon as Emperor Han Ling opened his mouth, it made people pay attention to his attention to everyone.
"Since you have meritorious, I should be rewarded for your merit."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Although Emperor Ling of Han did not immediately express the reward, it can be seen that he really values everyone, even Yuan Shao and Cao Cao can't help but be overjoyed at this time.
However, Wei Tao took the opportunity to look up, but found that Liu Hong, the Emperor of Han Ling, was pale, and he looked like he had just recovered from a serious illness.
And just looking at Emperor Han Ling's thin body, and then thinking about the endless rumors of Emperor Han Ling's drinking and enjoying himself in the market, Wei Tao can understand that I am afraid that this emperor has been hollowed out by wine, and this is why he can't stand being exposed to a little cold in his body.
At this time, if according to the rules, after the thanksgiving is completed, everyone should retreat to the sides and wait for the dispersal of the court.
After all, even if Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were both in the military at this time, and the princes of the court were still there, it would not be everyone's turn to speak.
But Emperor Han Ling hurriedly recalled the people, obviously not only for this, but also without waiting for everyone to retreat to the sides and then spoke.
"Qing and the others are all ministers of the humerus, and I know it. Now that Luoyang is empty, it has led to a large number of bandits, if it is not rectified, won't it let the Yellow Turban bandits shake the foundation of my Han Dynasty? If you take strict precautions at all times, you will be laughed at by the yellow turban bandits. ”
Speaking of this, Liu Hong's face was a little ugly, and his pale face was filled with a hint of annoyance.
Come to think of it, if it was just the Yellow Turban Riot, there would be such outlaws in that generation.
But Luoyang, the central king of the entire Han Dynasty, was forcibly attacked and killed by a group of Yellow Turban thugs, although it was finally pacified.
But not to mention how many people were killed and injured in it, and how many financial losses were made, this incident alone was enough to disgrace Emperor Han Ling, the supreme ruler of the Han Dynasty.
I don't know how it will be described in the history books in the future, how can this not make Liu Hong angry?
"I want to establish the Xiyuan Captain to defend the Gyeonggi Stronghold, and the Qing and others are all important ministers of me, and they have personally risked arrows to exterminate the Yellow Turban bandits, but I am worried about it."
Hearing Emperor Han Ling say this, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Cao Cao were all overjoyed.
Only Wei Tao was stunned, and then he was even more shocked.
Captain of the West Garden, the captain of the West Garden known to Wei Tao is also the eighth captain of the West Garden, of which Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have both served in one position.
However, according to Wei Tao's memory, the setting of the eight captains of the West Garden in history was set up by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty in order to divide the rights of the general He Jin, and more preparedly, it was Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty who set it up in order to establish the crown prince.
Of course, Liu Hong's idea in history has not yet come to fruition, and after Liu Hong's death, He Jin still supported his sister Liu Wei, the son of Empress He, as the emperor by virtue of holding the power of Luoyang.
However, this also shows that the authority of the eighth lieutenant of the West Park is vast, and even He Jin has to be a little jealous.
But in any case, this time should not be the time when the Eighth Captain of the West Garden was established!
What's more, Yuan Shu was not among the eight captains of the West Garden.
After all, the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, their influence is very vast, even Liu Hong, the emperor, has to be afraid of three points, not only to use the Yuan family, but also to guard against the Yuan family.
But this time, it was obvious that Emperor Han Ling couldn't take care of these anymore, and directly summoned Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu to entrust them with important tasks.
In this way, it is clear that history has changed again.
But at this time, at the court meeting, Wei Tao didn't dare to have anything unusual.
Fortunately, when he suddenly got such news, the young man's heart can't be happy and angry, so although Wei Tao's face is a little strange, it is normal in the eyes of everyone.
After all, Liu Hong has already indicated that he wants to reuse Wei Tao and others.
"The stakes are high, and the day of the establishment of the army will be long, so we must not be slack. I'm the one who decrees now! ”
Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty had really made up his mind, and he didn't ask the ministers for advice, and directly made a will.
"Edict: Order Jian Shuo to be the captain of the military academy and control the army. Yuan Shao was a lieutenant of the Chinese military academy and acted in command of soldiers and horses, and Cao Cao was a lieutenant of the lower military academy and was responsible for the conduct of the discipline. Yuan Shu was a military captain and was in charge of military justice. ”
"No!"
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty sealed four captains in one go, except for Jian Shuo, who was the eunuch of the Yellow Gate and Liu Hong's own person, the other three were all people who made great contributions this time.
Wei Tao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, he even understood that these three people were all future princes.
Even Yuan Shu, who is the most unsuccessful and narrow-minded, is actually not small.
"Ling Weitao and Xia Mu are the left and right captains, and Chun Yuqiong and Zhao Rong are the left and right assistant military captains respectively, and they are auxiliary to act. Each lieutenant can lead a soldier and horse, but if there is a recruitment, the army must not refuse! ”
Xia Mu and Zhao Rong are not generals in the army, but one is a counselor doctor, and the other is a Guanglu doctor, both of whom are important ministers of the imperial court, and their qualifications are extraordinary, so they should hold this position.
Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty had just recovered from his illness, and he felt tired after saying a few words in a row, but Liu Hong only took a breath and continued.
"All of you are my confidants and ministers, and you still want to kill the king, don't let me be disappointed."
"Your Ministers obey!"
At this time, Wei Tao and the others hurriedly bowed to thank him.
In this way, the eight captains of Xiyuan are established, and the order of the eight captains is: Jian Shuo, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu, Wei Tao, Xia Mou, Chun Yuqiong and Zhao Rong.
The princes of the imperial court may disagree, but they dare not speak out when Luoyang is not long in turmoil.
What's more, except for Jian Shuo, who is a eunuch of the Yellow Gate, the rest of the eight captains of the West Garden are all from a big family or the court ministers, who will speak at this time?
The reason why Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty went to the court at this time was entirely for this matter, and now the matter of the eighth lieutenant of the West Garden must be, Liu Hong just felt extremely tired.
After all, he had just recovered from his illness, but fortunately, although there were many things, many courtiers were still interested, but they did not come to disturb Liu Hong with these things, so that the court meeting would soon disperse.
After the court meeting, the princes of the court naturally parted ways, although the power of the eight captains of the West Garden seemed to be quite large, but the princes of the court would not be confused because of this, let alone come forward to stammer.
Since several people have the same official positions, except for Jian Shuo, the others naturally came together.
"Humph!"
But before anyone could speak, Yuan Shu had already snorted coldly.
"Your Majesty appointed me as a military captain in charge of military law, don't act against orders, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Hearing Yuan Shu's words, all the people who wanted to speak suddenly fell silent, and a few people were even slightly cold before.
Although Yuan Shu said this to everyone, his eyes were staring at Yuan Shao alone.
Although Yuan Shao is the eldest son, he is a concubine, and Yuan Shu is a descendant, so in the Yuan family, the two are fighting openly and secretly.
However, compared to Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao's ability is obviously stronger, and there is even a faint tendency to completely suppress Yuan Shu.
This time, the establishment of the eighth captain of the West Garden, Yuan Shao is the captain of the middle army, but Yuan Shu is only a military captain, which is clearly Yuan Shao who pressed Yuan Shu, so how can Yuan Shu not be angry?
Fang Cai was in the court, and Yuan Shu didn't dare to make trouble.
Now that the court meeting is dispersed, Yuan Shu is the first to attack, and it seems that the target is directly aimed at Yuan Shao.
"The matter of military law is related to the whole army, if someone does not respect military law, the person in command will also be responsible, and I will definitely not tolerate mercy at that time!"
"Humph! Since I am in command of the whole army, I naturally have to strictly enforce military discipline, and if it is really violated, I will not cover it up. ”
Yuan Shao was hit by Yuan Shu like this, and he was also a little tough, but everyone could understand that Yuan Shao was still a little unwilling in his words.
In fact, it is also like this, although Yuan Shao's ability and reputation are above Yuan Shu, but Yuan Shu is enough to suppress Yuan Shao just by virtue of his lineage.
It is precisely because Yuan Shu is a descendant that Yuan Shu can be supported by more people in the Yuan family.
The fourth generation and third duke of the Yuan family have accumulated a lot of heritage, but it is not something that the current Yuan Shao can contend with.
However, Yuan Shu did this, but he really offended several other people, especially Wei Tao, Yuan Shu's words were clearly to say that they must be caught in their mistakes, which was really annoying.
"In that case, you should keep it in mind, but I have to correct it, and I won't let people be wronged if I don't have it."
After all, Yuan Shu is a child of the family, and he knows that his words for a while will not really make enemies, but if this is really the case, then I am afraid that it will make people hate it to the bone, so this is a step, and at the same time, it is also a point of cohesion.
With Yuan Shu's words, even a few people who originally had a bit of a desire to get together suddenly dispersed.
What's more, people like Cao Cao and Yuan Shao quickly thought that if they gathered together at this time, then they would inevitably be a little pampered and arrogant, and if they went further, maybe there was a conspiracy to rebel.
Although these words certainly did not bring down a few people, once they came out, they were very bad for everyone.
Wei Tao naturally didn't have this mind at this time, if it was said that the Luoyang rebellion before could still be attributed to Zhang Jiao's escape, and then he intended to make a last fight to see if he could overthrow the Han Dynasty, then the early establishment of the eight captains of the West Garden, and the establishment of such eight people, was to tell Wei Tao that history had changed further.
When Wei Tao came to this era, then the change of history was inevitable, not to mention that in fact, history has already changed slightly.
Just like now, it is only a matter of time before the Yellow Turban is destroyed, when the news of Zhang Jiao's death comes out, when the Yellow Turban will disintegrate.
So Wei Tao is still more concerned about this season, that is, why this is the case.
