Chapter Forty-Eight: Suppression of the Scholars
The other four didn't touch the dishes and chopsticks again, and looked at Sun Ming directly and waited for him to answer.
In their opinion, this condition is already a great appreciation.
Sun Ming has no reason to refuse.
"The world is out of my generation, as soon as I enter the battlefield, the years are urging, and the emperor's achievements are talking and laughing, and it is better than getting drunk in life."
Sun Ming did not answer the question, but began to chant poetry while drinking.
"Born out of thin air, he is born in Kunlun, and he has read the spring of the world, if he is Lingyunzhi, he dares to laugh at Huang Chao and not his husband."
"I, Sun Ming, have never had any so-called nutrients from you from beginning to end, and I am not rare."
"It is not your Luoyang Sun family that I will revitalize, but my Zhuoxian Sun family."
"You don't have to worry that I, Sun Ming, will ruin your reputation, and I announce today that we will leave your lord's house."
Sun Ming's reply shocked several people present, and Sun Miao angrily slapped the table and pointed at Sun Ming and scolded, "You traitor, you..."
Before Sun Miao's words were finished, Sun Ming gave an order, and the thirty or so personal soldiers surrounded him, and the spears of Qi Brush flashed with penetrating light, pointing directly at the few people present.
This ferocious and decisive swallowed back Sun Miao's unfinished words, and several people were frightened into a cold sweat.
Sun Ming continued to drink glass by glass as if nothing happened, "If you say a good word for me, I will accept it with gratitude now." ”
"Now that I have a backer, the sea is wide and I can fly with the fish leaping into the sky, you sour Confucians have no way and no ability to limit."
Sun Ming said, shook the wine glass, and walked away.
Sun Miao sat in his place, muttering, "It's too much, it's too outrageous, tomorrow you wait to get through the ministers and declare that the traitor has nothing to do with us." ”
"I will unite with several heads of the family who live in the temple to impeach that Sun Ming, since he does not want to return, then we will trample him under his feet, so that he will never have a head."
Because Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty only went to court for three days, he spent most of his time in the 'West Garden', his place of pleasure.
The next day, a joint impeachment of Sun Ming was personally handed to Emperor Ling of Han by Zhang Wen, one of the three princes.
In order to suppress Sun Ming, a rising star, Zhang Wen ignored the rule of 'no state affairs in the West Garden'.
personally chased this letter to the West Garden.
Emperor Han Ling could only hold back his temper and listen impatiently to Zhang Wen, an old man, crying in front of him.
It painfully described Sun Ming's six major crimes: "lying about military merits, corruption and bribery, ruthlessness and unrighteousness, breaking away from the temple, deceiving the sky, and disloyalty to the country." ”
Dozens of officials jointly demanded that Sun Ming be removed from his post as general and put him in prison.
"Slander and evil will be successful, loyal and straightforward, Xuan Xuan is not good, how can you be virtuous and assisted?"
"If you are not the law of the previous king, you dare not say it, and if you are not the virtue of the first king, you dare not do it."
"Your Majesty, don't be bewitched by traitors, my Han's 10,000-year-old rivers and mountains can't be corrupted in the hands of my generation."
That Emperor Han Ling was just lazy to take care of things, and he was not stupid, and he had been fighting wits and courage with these old foxes for many years.
I've long been tired of these guys crying at every turn, and they will press him in the name of the emperor at every turn.
"I have heard of the deeds of that Sun Ming, contributing to the country, suppressing thieves and reassuring the people, the court needs such talents."
"You can't destroy the pillars of such a country just because that Sun Ming is alone and doesn't form a faction with you."
As soon as Zhang Wen heard that Emperor Han Ling had the intention of accusing him, he hurriedly looked at him, and said in a sobbing voice, "Your Majesty, the minister has absolutely not formed a party for personal gain, please Your Majesty will be aware of it." ”
Emperor Han Ling sighed, "I didn't say that you formed a party for personal gain, forget it, you step down, I will think about it again." ”
After that Zhang Wen left, Emperor Han Ling asked Zhang Rang behind him, "Father, what do you say this Wen wants?" ”
Zhang Rang replied, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that Zhang Wen and others are jealous of Sun Ming's great achievements, so they don't think about the danger of the imperial court, and want to demote the meritorious ministers, Your Majesty can't be credulous." ”
Emperor Han Ling nodded and said, "I saw him once at the court meeting last time, and I also have a good impression of him. These old guys are getting more and more excessive. ”
In the afternoon, Zhang Rang told Hou Lan the news, and Hou Lan told Sun Ming and told him to be careful.
When Zhang Wen returned to his mansion, there were already many officials sitting in the hall, all of whom were the core party members of the Shi faction, among which Zhang Wen and other three dukes were the leaders.
Everyone was waiting for Zhang Wen's performance, and when they saw Zhang Wen coming back, several people came up to ask, but Zhang Wen didn't reply, just shook his head and walked straight to the front of the hall to sit.
Everyone sees, this is no drama.
Zhang Wen drank a few sips of tea, and then said slowly, "The eunuchs poured ecstasy soup into Your Majesty, and Your Majesty fully believes that Sun Ming is a great talent for the country." ”
"Now that Sun Ming can't move, but fortunately, there is only one traitor, and the Yuan family and the Gongsun family who have made great contributions this time are our people."
At this time, a man sitting on the left side stood up and saluted, saying, "Zhang Gong and the envoys, will they let that group of eunuchs be corrupted so unscrupulously?" ”
"Today, a Sun Ming has been successfully cultivated from the hands of the eunuch party, then there will be more Sun Ming to follow the eunuch party tomorrow, and this precedent cannot be opened."
"Over the years, Your Majesty has become more and more ignorant of court affairs, and now that the eunuch's hand dares to reach out outside the palace, we should cut it off in time."
The person who spoke was Sun Ming's old opponent Wei Zhou, forty years old this year, this person was burly, with a scar on his neck, and a cold temperament.
When Zhang Wen heard this, he immediately asked rhetorically, "Qi Mou, what do you think, let's hear it." ”
Qi Mou is the word of Wei Zhou.
"Please also ask Zhang Gong's study to talk about it." As soon as Zhang Wen heard this, he knew that Wei Zhou had an idea, so he dismissed everyone and came to the study in the back with him.
"Gong Zhang, that Sun Ming is now under the protection of the eunuchs in the city, and we can't do it, but his fief is in Daijun, and he will go back soon."
"He only has a hundred people with him, we can give him on the way back..."
Zhang Wen thought for a moment, "But now that he is a general, we can't use officers and soldiers, and if we don't make trouble, we will all be charged with treason." ”
Wei Zhou sneered, "Gong Zhang is too worried, Xiaguan has other ways, and he will never be involved in us." ”
"If it happens, we will only hear that Sun Ming was killed by a group of remnants of the Yellow Turban rebels on the way back."
Zhang Wen pondered: "Okay! No poison, no husband, this matter will be handed over to you, remember not to let the third one know. ”
Wei Zhou ordered to retreat.
And Sun Ming looked for Hou Lan again, and he only left ten catties of gold, and gave the remaining thirty catties and treasures to Hou Lan and Zhang Rang.
Sun Ming thought very clearly, the impeachment and rejection of him from Luoyang would continue in the future, even if Hou Lan promised not to want Sun Ming's money, he would definitely protect him.
Calculating the time, Sun Ming has also been in Luoyang for more than ten days, and it is time to go to the next place, to meet the strongest wise general that Sun Ming has in mind.
These ten catties of gold are also prepared for him, and he is Mr. Zhuge Liang, Wolong, who cultivates Nanyang.
Nanyang is not very far to the east of Luoyang, but his decision also made Zhou Wei's arrangement come to naught.
The thieves arranged by Zhou Wei were ambushed in the north of Sizhou, on the way back to Zhuo County, but they couldn't wait for Sun Ming.
Now that there is no excessive baggage, Sun Ming and his entourage of more than 100 people all changed to horseback riding, and came to Deng County in Nanyang County in about three days.
