Chapter 183: The Wind Fills the High-Rise Building (2)
Tang Zhou sent a message of worship and a secret letter at the door, and soon a servant opened the door and welcomed him in.
This mansion is not luxurious, and it is indeed much worse than the identity of the owner of the house.
The servant led him around the front yard and straight to the backyard.
The owner of the house was sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard reading at this time, and this person saw that Tang Zhou had never been a little arrogant, and immediately got up to greet him.
"Tang Jun's ability to come today is enough to make this place flourish. A certain Hou Tang Jun has been around for a long time. The man smiled, but his right hand faintly swept the sword at his waist.
Tang Zhou heard the name of this person for a long time, although it was the first time they met, but they also had to sigh with emotion, this Yuan family, the third prince of the fourth world, in terms of temperament and appearance, really deserves the name of a model in the world.
The person opposite Tang Zhou was Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu, who were still living in seclusion in Luoyang.
Yuan Shao invited Tang Zhou to sit down, and then poured him a bowl of hot soup with his own hands, and asked with a smile: "What Tang Jun said in the letter is true?" ”
"Naturally, it's a fact, and even if there is no letter from a certain person, Yuan Jun can guess a lot of the reasons for it." Tang Zhou said with a smile.
In these years, it is natural that more than Tang Zhou and other people from the Yellow Turban Sect have been exploring the situation in the court in Luoyang.
Now the Yellow Turban is huge, implicating several states, and people such as Yang Ci and Liu Tao have also secretly investigated the Yellow Turban, and even sent a letter to the Son of Heaven in the court, wanting to suppress the development of the Yellow Turban, but Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, did not take it to heart.
If these people are on the surface, then naturally there are people who act in the shadows like him, and this person is Yuan Benchu in front of him.
Yuan Shao smiled when he heard this, "It seems that the great sage and good teacher can't help it after all." ”
"Even if the great sage and good teacher can endure it, those characters who follow him and want to use it to become the minister of the dragon may not be able to endure it." Tang Zhou also said with a smile, "Now that the yellow scarf is getting bigger and bigger, among which the dragons and snakes are mixed, even if the great sage and good teacher are wise, they will eventually be coerced by the general trend." ”
Yuan Shao nodded and sighed, but he felt something, "Under the general trend, who can not bow their heads?" ”
It's just that he changed his words, "You have been in the Yellow Turban for many years, even if you really have a grudge against Zhang Liang, why don't you go to Jizhou to find justice for Zhang Jiao?" Want to be the first to do it? ”
"To Jizhou?" Tang Zhou laughed, "Jizhou has always been a Yellow Turban land, and now Zhang Liang is also in Jizhou, go to Jizhou, don't say if you can see a great sage and good teacher, I'm afraid it will be difficult to go to Jizhou alive." ”
"Besides, what if you see it? No matter what Zhang Bao does, he and the great sage and teacher are brothers in the end. If you are a person, you have selfish intentions, and with my understanding of the great sage and good teacher, he must have been furious when he learned about this, and then he was going to kill Zhang Liang, and finally his anger subsided and he was persuaded by Zhang Bao. ”
"You know a lot about them." Yuan Shao said with a smile, "It's really a pity that a character like you died with the Yellow Turban." ”
Tang Zhou didn't hesitate, raised his hand and took a sip of the hot soup on the table, "If you don't have the ability to observe words and feelings, how can you do this well." ”
Yuan Shao nodded and smiled: "Reasonable." It's just that Tang Jun has already made up his mind, why didn't he go out directly, but found a certain place? Shao now lives in seclusion and has little contact with foreign affairs. Even if he values Tang Jun's talents, he is just humble and light, and he is afraid that he will not be able to speak for Tang Jun. ”
"Fang just said that a certain spy is not bad for himself." Tang Zhou said with a smile, "When you have been in Luoyang for a long time, what kind of character is Yuan Jun, don't you know if you can't do it?" ”
Yuan Shao smiled, stood up, and paced in the courtyard, at this time his right hand pressing the sword had been lowered from his waist.
After a long time, Yuan Shao stopped and turned his head to look at Tang Zhou.
"Tang Jun is sincere, and Shao will naturally not live up to Tang Jun's wishes. Since we want to do it, we naturally want to get more benefits. Yuan Shao smiled, "But I don't want to take this credit, so I should sell my favor." ”
"I'll go see the last one first."
……………………
On the second day, Yuan Shao dressed up in disguise and went out in a light car to visit Yin Hejin of Henan, who happened to be resting in Luoyang City.
He Jin is now reused by the Son of Heaven and is gradually ascending to a high position. With a beard and brocade clothes, the momentum on his body became more and more majestic.
"After Gao Dezhi, it was really different from the beginning."
In the secret room of the He family, Yuan Shao took off the black robe he was wearing outside, revealing the coarse linen clothes inside.
"We can have today, thanks to the help of the beginning." He Jin laughed, but the originally straight back collapsed.
In terms of appearance, He Jin is not under Yuan Shao, and now he is wearing brocade clothes and is in a high position.
It's just that even if the person standing in front of him is only dressed in coarse linen, it still makes him feel ashamed of himself.
This is the heritage of the four worlds and the three princes.
"Although my Yuan family has secretly helped each other, it may be that you have the ability to get to this day, otherwise Your Majesty will not let an incompetent person sit in a high position." Yuan Shao said with a smile, "It's just that although Sui Gao has to be used now, but a small Henan Yin, are you satisfied?" ”
He Jin smiled bitterly, and had to sigh in his heart, what a little Henan Yin, really worthy of the Yuan family of the fourth and third dukes.
"The butcher got up, he was already satisfied to be able to get to this position, and he didn't dare to look at the high position again." He Jin looked sincere.
Yuan Shao laughed, found a place to sit down, and looked at He Jin for a while before he spoke: "Sui Gao is a person who is optimistic about his fate, but Sui Gao is allowed to enter and not retreat in the officialdom." Now that you have reached this position, you will not be able to return to Nanyang to be a rich man in the future. ”
He leaned forward and stared at He Jin deadly, "Could it be that you have forgotten who targeted you everywhere in the first place?" Have you forgotten who caused the injuries in the first place? Now it is the Song family, not the Dong family. ”
"You and I have been friends for a long time, and you are a wise man, and you don't need me to say much. Now Wang Meiren's heirs are in the hands of Empress Dowager Dong. Who is Empress Dowager Dong? She is the mother of the Son of Heaven. Before, the Dong family tolerated you and the He family a little, but it was nothing more than that you had the prince in your hands, and they were just a rat trap. But what about now? ”
He Jin was silent and sat down opposite Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shaozhi's words naturally hit his heart.
Empress Dowager Dong is the mother of the Son of Heaven in the end, and now there is another prince Liu Xie.
Although the Dong family is not a wealthy family, they have been relatives for many years and have a deep background in Luoyang City, so it is naturally very simple to deal with their newcomer He family.
Although there were many relatives in the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was only one relative in charge of the government.
To put it mildly, if the Son of Heaven dies of illness one day, then who is the strongest relative in Luoyang City today will settle a matter.
In the hall of his day, the person behind the curtain is surnamed Dong or He.
"I don't know what the original taught me."
"Sui Gao's situation is known to his own family." Yuan Shao said with a smile, "It's just that since you and I are friends, naturally we can't ignore you when you are in danger." I have come to help you. ”
"It was rumored in the palace that His Majesty had the intention of abolishing the queen, so naturally His Majesty beat you. It's just that according to His Majesty's temperament, if he is ruthless once launched, the so-called beating may not become a fact. You must know that now there is another co-prince. And I heard that His Majesty is quite fond of this son. ”
"I just had a plan to speak out, and I naturally knew the stakes." He Jin smiled bitterly.
"Your Majesty is suspicious of you, and the eunuchs in the palace are naturally unreliable, and now the only ones who can help you are the scholars in the court." Yuan Shao didn't say much more, pointing out the key point, "As long as the sergeants are on your side, plus Empress He's pillow talk in the harem, and then make a great contribution, even Your Majesty will not dare to touch you easily." I can't say that I want to allow you to be a high-ranking official again, so as to win the hearts of the people. ”
"Where is it as easy as it was originally said, only to talk about winning over scholars. Even if your Yuan family is on my side, there are still families such as the Yang family in the court, and there are many famous families in Yingchuan above the place. Even if you skip the famous family, famous people in the DPRK and China, such as Lu Zhi and others, have always been oil and salt, even if the big clan is still unable to win over, how can I be a butcher who started in Nanyang? He Jin smiled bitterly again.
"If it was in the past, it wouldn't have been." Yuan Shao smiled, "It's just that there is a great opportunity in front of me now." So Gao should know what these scholars are most concerned about, don't say anything about the court and society, and there is one more thing on this matter. ”
"Originally, I was talking about the party's affairs." He Jin is not a stupid person, he guessed what Yuan Shao was referring to.
"Yes, it's the party. The two party repertoire before and after can be said to have cut off the way for scholars to advance. Yuan Shao patted the saber on his waist, "Over the years, there have often been scholars who have risked their lives to solve the party's troubles, why do you think this is so?" It is not yet a test of the attitude of the scholars towards His Majesty. It's just that they never thought that His Majesty would be so stubborn and kill anyone who pleaded for mercy, which suppressed the matter of the party to the present. But now I can't hold it down after all. ”
Yuan Shao's voice gradually lowered, and he told He Jinhe about Tang Zhou's whistleblowing.
"When the Yellow Turban is together, who else can Your Majesty send to quell the rebellion? Naturally, it is still those scholars in the court. Yuan Shao said with a smile, "Even if Your Majesty has a heart, the party will definitely be unraveled." Now that we have this news first, we naturally want to benefit from it. ”
"Now that I hand Tang Zhou into your hands, you go to contact the sergeant of the court, and when the Yellow Turban is together, you can speak together and force Your Majesty to untie the party, even if Your Majesty is dissatisfied, what can you do?"
"For a while, the spirit and the weight of the world, Your Majesty is still clear." Yuan Shao smiled and groaned, and made a calculation of the Son of Heaven.
He Jin thought about it in his heart, knowing that Yuan Shao's plan would most likely succeed, and sighed, "It's really a good strategy." ”
Yuan Shao shook his head with a smile, "I also learned this plan from Xuande to open a wine house. If you want to do something, you should first hook up the people involved with interests, although each has its own needs. ”
He paused, with an unpredictable smile on his face, "But we all end up in the same place." ”
