With a rough decision, the next step is to issue an edict in the name of the emperor.

In addition to wanting Sun Ce to resist the route of the Yellow Turban Army to the south, Liu Xuan proposed that this young man also want to see if the six seals he had tempered could suppress Sun Ce to a certain extent.

It is linked to the dragon qi of the entire Han Dynasty after Lu Bu obtained his canonization, I don't know what will happen to Sun Ce? Is it also linked, or is it not effective at all?

He knew that Sun Ce still had some dragon qi there, and the only variable was this dragon qi, so he didn't know what strange things would happen when he got it?

After two turns in his heart, it was difficult for him to draw conclusions about what had not happened, and watching several important ministers of the court leave, Liu Xuan also walked out of the Jinhua Palace.

Looking up, the moon was already hanging high in the sky, Liu Xuan realized that it was getting late, and the palace door was already closed, but those people didn't have to worry about not being able to get out, Zhong Xuan knew that the ministers came to the palace to discuss matters, and they must have left the door, these ministers did not leave, and Zhong Xuan must also guard and not rest.

It can be seen from this that the Yellow Gate Squire is not a light position.

Raising his eyes and looking at the dark night sky again, Liu Xuan suddenly asked Cao Bao: "By the way, then Yuan Yi seems to be closer to Yuan Shao?"

Cao Bao was stunned for a moment, but quickly replied: "The position of Yuan Yi's Yangzhou assassin history was asked by Yuan Shao for him." Although Cao Bao is not very old, he also knows that he has to serve the emperor, but he is not only doing the work of handing tea and water, dressing and running errands, he may not have his own opinions on government affairs, and he does not understand military affairs at all, but he must remember the interpersonal relations between various officials under the court.

I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to do this himself, but Liu Xuan found a good teacher for Cao Bao, Zhang Rang!

Just before the winter, Liu Xuan seemed to say unintentionally when he took Zhang Rang: "Cao Bao, this young man is good, Zhang asked you to give more pointers in the future." ”

The old eunuch immediately understood what the emperor meant, and the emperor not only did not pursue his previous sins, but now he has also restored his identity and status step by step, and now Zhang Rang, who is currently serving as Da Changqiu, although his power is not as strong as back then, but he is also a top figure in this inner palace, and he is still quite chic, and now that the emperor has orders, he naturally has to do his best to do it - he understands who gave him all this.

Cao Bao studied with Zhang Rang during this time, and the first thing he learned was the interpersonal relationship within the imperial court, and the young eunuch still remembered that on the first day, Zhang Rang said a few names to him: Cao Cao, Lu Bu, Xun Or, Xun You, Guo Jia, Liu Ye, Liu Bei, Zhang Liao!

"These people are today's cronies, if you want to live well by the emperor's side in the future, remember that these people must not be offended!"

In addition to the fact that the emperor attaches great importance to this, these people are the real real power.

Among them, Lu Bu, Cao Cao, and Zhang Liao have soldiers in their hands, and Liu Bei is the identity of the emperor's uncle, and he controls the forbidden army remotely (Liu Bei's two righteous brothers are in the forbidden army, and this matter can not be concealed from Zhang Rang).

Xun You, Xun or two people each hold one, and the six departments have surpassed Jiuqing under the promotion of the emperor, and at the same time weakened the power of the three dukes, among which Xun You is in charge of the people's livelihood, Xun or the promotion and appointment of hundreds of officials, it can be said that the three most important parts of the court are in the hands of the emperor.

Since the day Xun or was promoted to the rank of official Shangshu, the imperial court has basically been what the emperor says, and what the emperor wants most, it is difficult for the princes of the court to confront him. Not to mention the side, only the officials are controlled by the emperor, and if they still want to promote their cronies, they can't work against the emperor.

Otherwise, if the emperor is annoyed, he will be dismissed from office, not to mention, even the group of people close to him will be cleared out sooner or later, and the officials have set the rules, and the officials will be evaluated once a year, and the promotion, appointment and dismissal will be decided according to the performance of the officials this year, and those with poor performance will either be fined or demoted, and it is not uncommon for them to go directly to the official if they do too badly.

Now that the imperial court has gradually eased its breath, it doesn't care about the flow of some petty officials and officials, because with the imperial court controlling the northwest, some literati have also seen that the imperial court is not exhausted, and they are willing to continue to serve under the imperial court... At least being an official under the imperial court, the level is higher than that in the locality, and the treatment can be a little better.

More importantly, the imperial court will definitely not be in arrears of wages and wages, and it will be paid as much as it should be. Everyone in the world also knows that the surrounding areas of Chang'an have had bumper harvests for two consecutive years, and the imperial court does have this confidence.

Most of them are just to eat, and the court is well treated, so naturally some people are willing to come.

Therefore, Liu Xuan also has enough confidence to carry out the recall and promotion appointment, so that the officials will start to flow, so that the entire imperial court will not become a pool of stagnant water from the bottom up. Cao Bao only half-understood these truths, and Zhang Rang didn't hope that he could fully understand them, but he just wanted him to remember the people he focused on.

"In addition, Taifu Yuan Kui and the three dukes, these people are too ambitious, and they have their own factions behind them, and they are not liked by His Majesty. You should be cautious in your dealings with these people in the future, and don't get too close. ”

Liu Xuan's attitude towards these people seems to be very respectful and polite at a glance, but Zhang Rang has already seen that if it weren't for the people who didn't have the right people in his hands, the emperor would have replaced them a long time ago. Now that Cao Bao is taught, he simply said it all in one go.

After talking about the situation in the court, he then told Cao Bao about the situation of the princes in the world.

Although these people are relatives of the Han family, looking at their behavior, I am afraid that they are not subordinate, and when they mention it in front of the emperor, they should not say anything about the people of the family, so as not to make His Majesty unhappy. ”

Cao Bao nodded, originally he had a good impression of the concept of family. Because after he entered the palace, he was promoted and helped by Cao Teng, and at that time, he felt that only one family was the best for one family.

Later, I met Cao Cao, Cao Cao was also good to him, although he didn't see much of it, but he would ask about his life situation, which made him feel more cordial.

I don't want Zhang Rang to teach him today that "a family is not completely trustworthy." This was hard for him to accept for a moment. However, Cao Bao has one good thing, that is, even if he doesn't understand, he will not directly ignore Zhang Rang's teachings, but remember it in his heart and think slowly.

"Except for these few people, most of the world has fallen into the hands of the Yuan family."

The specific situation, Cao Bao also listened to Zhang Rang's analysis, and he also learned that although the Yuan family occupied several states, and at a glance it seemed that the three brothers had their own side, but in fact, it was a competition between Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. That's an ornament.

Just because of this teaching, when Liu Xuan asked today, Cao Bao could answer as soon as possible, Liu Xuan smiled after listening to it: "Zhang Rang's teaching is good, you will go to talk to him more when you have nothing to do in the future, he estimates that time is running out, you can learn as much as you can during this time!"

Liu Xuan had also considered teaching Zhang Rang to cultivate, but this old man's body was too weak, and even if he started cultivating, he might not be able to practice.

What's more, Liu Xuan didn't have much of a good impression of Zhang Rang, and he was also very jealous of the things he had done before, Liu Xuan left him alive just because he had been in the palace for a long time, and he was experienced in many things, and Liu Xuan wanted to borrow his experience to get through the most difficult period. Now that the imperial court is in control, Zhang Rang's role is no longer large, and it is useless to keep it, and it is already benevolent and righteous to ensure that he enjoys his old age in peace.

It's Cao Bao, this kid, if he cultivates it well, he can become the first person in the inner palace in the future and help him deal with some miscellaneous trivial matters in the inner palace.

At the moment, Cao Bao is still in a state of rote memorization, but he is not in a hurry, this kind of thing is not something that a young person can quickly grasp. To be able to be a reference material on the go, it is sufficient.

"Sun Ce is now living under Yuan Shu's account, and now he is named Yangzhou Mu, which is equivalent to increasing Yuan Shu's power, so Yuan Shao will definitely not agree......"

Touching his chin, Liu Xuan suddenly found that he had inadvertently lit a fire medicine barrel, maybe the Yangtze River, before the Yellow Turban Army could fight, Yuan Shu and Yuan Yi would have to fight for a while - of course, in order to avoid people in the world from saying anything unpleasant, Yuan Shu could not take action in person, plus the edict issued by the imperial court this time, Yuan Shu also had a suitable reason and excuse.

Sun Ce and Yuan Yi don't seem to have anything to do with each other, but in fact, this is also the official confrontation between Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao brothers.

"That's fine!" Liu Xuan thought about it, and only felt that although this result was not deliberately contributed to by himself, it was better than anything else to develop in this direction.

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's power is too huge, even if he is confident that he will destroy them in the future, it will not happen overnight, and it would be a good thing if he could weaken the strength of the two.

"It's the yellow turban thief, I'm afraid no one can control it this time. ”

Sun Ce and Yuan Yizhen fought, and it is estimated that they will not participate in the battle to encircle and suppress the Yellow Turban Thieves for a while, but Liu Xuan believes that the Yellow Turban Thieves will definitely not fight to the south, because if they turn to the south, it will be equivalent to forcing Yuan Yi and Sun Ce to unite.

But even so, the plan to prevent the Yellow Turban Army from going south was achieved, although the process was a little off from expectations, but the result was not wrong after all.

Anyway, as long as the power of the Yellow Turban Army is controlled, it is different, because Liu Xuan suddenly has a feeling: "I am afraid that the battle with the Yellow Turban Army will be long-term, and it will not end in a moment!"

But he only had this feeling, and suddenly heard a chaotic running sound behind him, and when he turned around, he could see Zhong Xuan and Liu Ye hurriedly running to him, and shouted while running: "Your Majesty!"

Stopped, and when the two approached, Liu Ye couldn't even wait to take a breath, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, the Heavenly Master of Hanzhong is also reversed!"
