XXXV. Anti-eunuchs

For Cao Cao, Liu Bei only heard his name, not his person, and had deep envy and jealousy towards him.

It was during that time that Cao Cao beat Jian Shuo's uncle and beat him to death, causing an uproar inside and outside the city.

This has nothing to do with Liu Bei, whether it was then or now, he can't participate in the political struggle at the top of the Eastern Han Empire, and he can't reach the deep political context of the Cao family.

However, he really didn't expect Cao Cao to take the initiative to visit him.

Originally, the life trajectories of him and Cao Cao should have been two parallel lines that did not intersect with each other, and it was only because of the distortion of the troubled times that there would be an unexpected intersection.

But it's normal to think about it, because the current Liu Bei is not the original Liu Bei, and Cao Cao is still the original Cao Cao.

Cao Cao is now a councilor, and normally, he must have a very bright future, and the collapse of the Song family's relatives will not affect his progress.

Since he has such a bright future, why did Cao Cao come to see him?

With such doubts, Liu Bei personally went to meet Cao Cao.

Walking to the door, Liu Bei saw Cao Cao.

To be honest, because of the stereotype, Liu Bei thought that the moment he saw Cao Cao, he could feel his domineering side leak, but no, what he saw was just a young man with an ordinary appearance, not tall, but quite sturdy.

I couldn't feel any special momentum from Cao Cao at all.

After reacting, Liu Bei felt a little funny, feeling that he was a little too harsh on the future overlord of the Central Plains [the sixth in the world].

In the end, he is just a talker, walking on the rich and noble Luoyang Street, he really belongs to the kind of person who will drown in the vast sea of people at any time.

As Liu Bei judged before, Cao Cao at this moment, except for his extraordinary family background, does not have any special excellence, everyone is still a rookie who has not leveled up, and he is not a big warlord in the future.

So Liu Bei straightened his posture, put away all the emotions in his heart, showed a decent business smile, and saluted Cao Cao.

"I don't know that Cao Jun is visiting, and I am not welcomed, please don't be surprised by Cao Jun."

"Where are these words? It was Cao who did not choose the right time to visit, which affected Liu Jun's rest, and asked Liu Jun not to be surprised. ”

Cao Cao's voice was loud and full of energy, but he showed a feeling completely different from his own body.

He also gave Liu Bei a courtesy, and the courtesy was thorough, revealing a good family education.

Interesting.

Liu Bei smiled.

"Where, Liu just didn't expect Cao Jun to come, and a famous figure like Cao Jun would also come to visit Liu, which really flattered Liu."

Cao Cao was a little curious.

"What is Cao famous for? Liu Jun is the most famous person in Luoyang right now! ”

"In the third year of Xiping, Cao Jun was appointed as the captain of the northern part of Luoyang, and after taking office, he set up a five-colored stick to severely punish those who violated the ban, and this matter caused an uproar at the time, and countless people applauded!"

Cao Cao was slightly surprised when he heard this.

"Six years have passed, do you still remember Liu Jun?"

Liu Bei nodded.

"Back then, Liu was studying scriptures with his teacher Lu Gong on the Wushi Mountain outside Luoyang City, and when he heard about this, he deeply felt Cao Jun's pride and ambition that he was not afraid of power."

"I see, there is still this relationship......"

Cao Cao lowered his head and smiled, a subtle look of loss flashed in his eyes, and he quickly raised his head again and replaced it with a cheerful smile.

"That's all in the past, it doesn't matter."

"How can you say that it doesn't matter? Cao Jun, as the captain of the northern part of Luoyang, dared to severely punish the powerful uncle of Jian Shuo, which is something that many people dare not do at all? Today, everyone is scolding eunuchs, but how many people dare to beat eunuchs? ”

Liu Bei saluted Cao Cao: "This behavior alone is enough to make Liu admire." ”

Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei who was saluting with a complicated expression, and then stepped forward to help Liu Bei up.

"Liu Jun won the award, Cao just did what he thought was the right thing in his heart, but he ...... Nothing to use. ”

Liu Bei raised his head and saw the helpless smile on Cao Cao's face.

It doesn't look like a fake.

Yes, that's right, this matter is really a stunned decision, not a plan with the city government.

Liu Bei can be sure that when Cao Cao's father Cao Song learned about this, he must have wanted to pull off his stupid son's head as a night pot.

Even so, the current Cao Cao must not be able to see the deep malice that Liu Bei harbored towards him under his business smile.

Or rather, jealousy.

Of course, it was impossible for him to let Cao Cao know, and if he was lucky, Cao Cao would never know in his life.

He began to praise Cao Cao.

"In any case, Cao Jun is brave, and Cao Jun is much more noble than them compared to those who just talk but don't do it."

Cao Cao glanced at Liu Bei deeply, and then showed a calm smile.

"What Liu Jun thinks, unlike ordinary people, if the coming day is free, Cao hopes to have a good time with Liu Jun, but it is getting late today, and if he doesn't leave, he will violate the curfew order."

Only then did Liu Bei realize that he had blown it with others at the door of his house, and he hadn't invited anyone in to drink saliva yet.

"Liu is rude! Cao Jun, please come in. ”

Liu Bei stepped aside and invited Cao Cao into his home, but Cao Cao did not enter.

"Liu Jun, Cao is here just to ask Liu Jun if he will be free tomorrow and whether it is convenient."

"This ...... Tomorrow is a rest day, so naturally it will be empty, and it will be very convenient......"

"That'll be fine."

Cao Cao said with a smile: "Tomorrow, there is a person who wants to invite Liu Jun to the mansion for a while. ”

"Oh? Who? ”

"Yuan Benchu, this person, Liu Jun should be no stranger, right?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

Liu Bei was stunned.

Yuan Benchu?

Yuan Shao?

Liu Bei suddenly remembered that before Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao, he was a real Yuan's dog's leg, and he was obscene behind Yuan Shao, which was actually equal to Yuan Shao's subordinates, but he was relatively more independent.

He wants to see me?

Liu Bei couldn't figure out why Yuan Shao invited him for a while, but he still agreed.

Everyone is so sincere to let Cao Cao invite, if you don't go to see and don't give face, you will inevitably be a little ignorant.

The high status of the Yuan family of the fourth and third princes in the Eastern Han Empire can be seen from the fact that they are called [Tianxia Zhong surname].

Zhong, which means to be ranked second.

The meaning of the Yuan family is that our old Yuan family is the second largest surname under Emperor Liu's family.

It is not unfounded to say this kind of thing, the fourth generation and the third duke, the protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials are all over the world, this is the best understanding of the Yuan family.

And Yuan Shao is one of the more famous children of the new generation of this family.

However, he is not currently an official, and it seems that he is living in seclusion in Luoyang because of the loss of his father and mother.

So Cao Cao and Liu Bei agreed to send a carriage to meet Liu Bei tomorrow morning, and personally took Liu Bei to Yuan Shao's mansion to meet Yuan Shao.

After the agreement, Cao Cao said goodbye to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei saw Cao Cao's car drive away, and then turned around and entered the mansion.

"Lang Jun, who came to see you?"

Seeing Liu Bei return to the room with a worried expression, Han Ning greeted him and helped Liu Bei take off his coat.

"Cao Mengde came to see me."

Liu Bei put the prayer slip in his hand on the table, and then sat down: "Cao Mengde said that Yuan Shao wants to see me." ”

"Yuan Shao? Yuan Benchu? That Yuan Shao of the Yuan family in Runan? ”

"Yes."

Liu Bei looked at Han Ning and nodded: "He wants to see me and invite me to his house tomorrow." ”

He ...... How could he invite Lang Jun? The fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family in Runan, the home of the valve, are extremely prominent. ”

Han Ning is obviously not a deep boudoir woman who doesn't know anything, and she seems to know a lot of things during this time in Luoyang.

"I can't figure it out either."

Liu Bei smiled: "But since the teacher can form a friendship with Yang Gong, then Yuan Benchu and I are not unable to get along in harmony, although Yuan Benchu lives in seclusion in Luoyang, but his reputation is very great, and his reputation is very good, tomorrow, I will go to visit him." ”

said so, but Liu Bei felt that this matter was a little interesting.

Academics can't explain this.

The antagonism between the ancient literary school and the modern literary school is far from the point where the people on both sides do not get along with each other for a long time, and the degree of antagonism is even worse than that of the Song and Ming dynasties, and it has not been possible to distinguish a winner or a winner for more than 200 years.

Yuan Shao, who was born in the family of the modern literary school, would not speak ill of someone because he was a fan of the ancient literature school.

They are opposites, but not completely.

So it's not hard to understand how you value your own fame and try to befriend yourself.

Liu Bei, who had traveled in the circle of scholars in Luoyang City before, had heard that although Yuan Shao lived in seclusion in Luoyang on the grounds that his parents were mourning, he was still constantly making friends with heroes from all over the world in private, and even secretly befriended party members, and his plot was not small.

Interesting.

Yuan Shao thinks I'm also one of the heroes of the four seas?

Liu Bei thought about it like this, and his heart suddenly became happy.

But then again, Yuan Shao is not a stabilizer, or the entire Runan Yuan clan is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Just making friends with a party member in secret is something that can be questioned or even killed during the current party period, but the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family are more awesome, and the eunuch group can't catch them all.

But this does not mean that the eunuch does not want to kill the Yuan family, just as the Yuan family also wants to kill the eunuch very much.

Lu Zhi once told Liu Bei that although the Yuan family was once criticized for compromising with the eunuchs, the Yuan family was also worried when they saw that the eunuchs were becoming stronger and more mature, and the imperial power was becoming more and more handy under their control.

Therefore, Lu Zhi speculated that although the Yuan family did not act on the surface, judging from their private actions, it must be a small plan.

They may want to achieve the great cause that Dou Wu and Chen Fan failed to complete by mistake.

At the beginning of Liu Hong's accession to the throne, the eunuchs were so powerful that Dou's relatives and some scholars led by Chen Fan tried to unite to abolish the eunuchs and slaughter all the eunuchs.

However, because of the leakage of secrets and a series of mistakes, they did not succeed, but instead led to the power of relatives and scholars being purged by the eunuchs who held the imperial power, and they were killed tragically, which directly led to the second disaster of the party.

Thinking about it along this line of thought, Liu Bei suddenly felt that everything suddenly became clear.

What is the political position of Yuan Shao, or the Yuan family, this group of guys?

Liu Bei thought about everything he knew might happen in the future, trying to get some useful information from it.

Then, he really got some useful information and came to his own conclusions.

Quite simply, the political stance of this group of guys is to oppose eunuchs, or rather, to achieve the dictatorship of scholars.
