Just when Ye Bin was puzzled, there was a sudden flash of lightning and thunder in Luoyang City, and the heavy rain poured without warning, and the entire Luoyang City was filled with panic.

Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty knelt on the Wende Hall (during the Three Kingdoms period, he did not sit on chairs, but knelt. Listening to the thunder outside, he felt a little uneasy in his heart, and asked the ministers:

"Why is it raining so suddenly?"

His Royal Highness came out of the crowd and was just about to speak, when suddenly the wind in the hall suddenly rose, and a huge green snake came from the top of the beam, three zhang long, as thick as a bucket, and the snake spit out a letter, pointing directly at Liu Hong.

"Ahh

Liu Hong shouted, this is terrible, what kind of monster is this? He had never seen such a big snake, where did it come from?

"Protect Your Majesty!"

Eunuch Zhang rang's sharp voice spread all over the hall, although he said so, but he retreated without leaving a trace, the dead Taoist friend does not die poor Dao, at this time, he is not in the mood to die for the emperor.

When the military attachés were about to kill the giant snake, the giant snake suddenly moved, and disappeared out of the temple like lightning.

"Whew!"

Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty continued to sweat coldly, let out a long breath, his face was pale, and he asked tremblingly, "What's going on?" ”

Before the ministers could reply, the heavy rain outside the hall suddenly stopped, and hail began to fall, crackling on the roof, making everyone fearful.

"What's wrong, what's going on?"

Liu Hong shouted hysterically, frightened, he didn't care about the majesty of the emperor, at this time he just wanted to figure out what was going on.

The person who came out of the crowd just now was Cai Yong, who had a heavy face and said in a low tone:

"Your Majesty, there are earthquakes in various places today, all kinds of disasters are continuous, and now there are heavy rain and hail, lightning and thunder, and even dark clouds cover the sky, and strange snakes suddenly appear, which is a great omen, which is caused by the woman's interference in politics and the dictatorship of eunuchs.

Liu Hong sighed, noncommittal about this, but Zhang Rang was terrified when he heard it, the eunuch is dictatorial, does it mean that he can't do it? At this time, Zhang Rang did not have the title of the Ten Standing Attendants, but his authority was not small, he sneered, and said in a thin voice:

"Your Majesty, the slave and maid are wronged, the slave and maid have devoted their lives to serving the master, and they have no second thoughts, but now someone is slandered, and the slave and maid are killed by a head-on."

After that, Zhang Rang pretended to hit the wall, and Emperor Han Ling was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly stopped him and said: "Why do you need to be like this, I know that you are loyal, how can you have two hearts?" ”

After speaking, Emperor Han Ling glanced at Cai Yong coldly, this Cai Yong is known to be talented, and his reputation among the scholars is extremely high, but he talks nonsense and disrupts the government, and he must not let this person stay any longer:

"Come on, make a plan, Cai Yong is pampered and self-respecting, framed the pillars, and talked nonsense on the main hall, and now he will resign from his official position, make him reflect, and wait for the future discussion."

Cai Yong was sad, with his prestige, Liu Hong would not dare to kill him, but asking him to go home and reflect on it would be tantamount to semi-house arrest, or good, the province was worried all day long, and it was impossible to see without saying anything with his character, in this case, it was better to go home and close the door.

Moreover, Cai Yong has a wish in his life, he wants to continue to study Han history, but he has been suffering from no time, and now he is idle, and he can finally realize his dream.

But said that after this change, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty learned from the pain, he felt that the ministers were not credible, they were all harmed by these people, these people have their own interests, most of them are from the Shi clan, the family and the country are all over the world, they have always put the family first, and this gang of people is huge, it is difficult to contain, it is better to reuse eunuchs and relatives to curb the situation of the dominance of the Shi clan.

Eunuchs are born dependent on the emperor, in the mind of Emperor Han Ling, these people must not be selfish, and the same is true of relatives, although there is a small danger, but as long as he has a good balance.

As a result, the ten permanent servants who shocked the world finally rose, they were greedy, but they were extremely trusted by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, and these people even sold their officials and lords, collecting gold and silver in their arms.

At this time, there were three forces in the Eastern Han Dynasty, one was a eunuch, led by ten permanent servants, among which Zhang Rang was the most trusted by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and was called his father; The second is the foreign relatives, the relatives are the relatives of the queen's concubines, before Emperor Ling, the relatives were very powerful, but now because of the eunuchs, they are naturally closer to the emperor than the relatives, so their power has decreased a lot; The three are the scholars, that is, the families that have been officials for generations, from the court to the pawns, they have their own power, they are deep-rooted, and they are the most feared forces of the emperor, so they need eunuchs and relatives to balance.

These three forces are not harmonious with each other, each fighting for their own interests, among which the eunuchs are the most intense, they have no culture, they have been castrated again, and they have no sexual interest in women, the only pursuit of life is wealth and power, after they got Liu Hong's trust, they began to accumulate wealth and power.

And relatives and scholars also need wealth and power, so there are contradictions between them, blocking people's money, such as killing parents, this hatred of killing father and mother can be said to be uncommon, so everyone began to fight.

The relatives were originally very powerful and controlled the forbidden army, but due to the dictatorship of the eunuchs, they lost a lot of military power, so the relatives were the weakest force at this time.

Although the scholars seem to be weak, they are extremely resilient, although they are not trusted by the emperor, but they control the mouthpiece of the world, they spread the news of the eunuchs' dictatorship everywhere, and they unite with the ministers of the court to challenge the eunuchs, and the fight can be described as very happy.

The three forces have started a war, and the most bitter thing is the people, in fact, they have deprived the people of their wealth, and the people's grievances are boiling, and the people are not happy, and because of the spread of the scholars, the common people naturally resented the eunuchs.

In fact, these three forces are depriving the people of their wealth, but the people only know the eunuchs, not to mention the relatives, they are selfish, and cowardly and incompetent, and it is not yet a climate at this time.

But the scholars are very powerful, they have culture, power, wealth, connections, some of them are rural celebrities, these people were originally loyal and patriotic, want the world to be peaceful, the country is rich and the people are safe, but there is no opportunity to be an official, they can only take refuge in the scholars, are promoted to filial piety, become their only chance, so they are absorbed by the scholars, after the transformation, they enter the court as officials, they naturally speak for the scholars.

However, there are also many real people of insight, and there are also many people who are worried about the country and the people among the scholars.

They fought, the people were poor, and some people were restless, there were three brothers, the eldest was called Zhang Jiao, the second was called Zhang Bao, and the third was called Zhang Liang. At this time, the luck of the boss Zhang Jiao came.

Nanhua Lao Xian lost a Taiping technique and was picked up by Zhang Jiao, he is very smart, and has the talent to learn this book, not a few days, has learned half of it.

Zhang Jiao found that the things in this book are simply broad and profound, very mysterious, and can call the wind and rain, scatter beans into soldiers, Zhang Jiao, who has learned immortal arts, felt that the opportunity had come, and he and the three brothers summed it up again, and everyone hit it off and began a missionary career everywhere.

They claim to be the Taoist master of the Taiping Dao, show people with immortal arts, save people with runic water, and soon, they will attract a large number of believers, Zhang Jiao and their three brothers feel that it is not enough, their ambitions are getting bigger and bigger, they feel that now the people are not living, everyone is not enough to eat, this is a good opportunity, it is better to study and study, and rebel together.

Originally, they were making money by 'eliminating violence and peace', so that everyone would pay attention to them, but now, they are more ambitious, and they feel that the emperor will take turns to do it, and I will be in charge this year.

The three brothers were no longer satisfied with the believers in one or two counties, they preached separately, convincing everyone that the people were poor, and now, the three brothers cast spells, and were able to cure diseases and save people, of course everyone obeyed, so that their disciples were like snowballs, getting bigger and bigger, gathering more and more.

To say that Zhang Jiao is also very powerful, the average person must not have experience in rebellion, but he has come up with a way to blossom everywhere, they do not gather the followers in one place, but all over the country, let them eat royal meals, wait for the opportunity, everyone rebels together, eats fragrant together, drinks spicy food, and plays with the most beautiful women.

There are now more than 5 million Yellow Turban Daoists, and Zhang Jiao thinks that everyone should save some food, otherwise they will not be able to eat when they rebel.

Zhang Jiao thought of a way to collect protection fees, how to collect this protection fees? There are a lot of them, and most of the counties have a group of sect members, and they are like hooligans, telling the common people, you have to pay food, and our heavenly master will protect you.

How to protect it? Every month to hand over the grain and grass of the people, the Yellow Turban Road will use white clay to write the word 'Yellow Turban' in front of their door, so that people will not have disasters and difficulties, if they are not written, there will be some disasters, such as someone will throw stones in the middle of the night, for example, when going out will be beaten with people covering their heads, after a long time, everyone began to hand in grain and grass.

This has a very big impact on the player, now, the Yellow Turban is everywhere, most of the players' territory also appears in the Yellow Turban Dao, the player's territory generally does not dare to offend the Yellow Turban Dao, the player knows a lot about the Yellow Turban Uprising, this kind of rebel leader's subordinates, who dares to slack off, many people are kind words to send the Yellow Turban Army out of the territory, and then hand over a large amount of food, what's more, directly to the Yellow Turban Army, they feel that even if the Yellow Turban Uprising fails, they can also reap the benefits, first from the thief, and then from the good, There is no psychological barrier for the player.

Not to mention, the players who took refuge in the Yellow Turban got the materials and food and grass of the Yellow Turban, and the development suddenly became faster, and for a while, countless lord players who had been oppressed before suddenly turned over, they tasted the benefits, and the connection with the Yellow Turban was more intimate.
