Chapter 240: Zhang Rang, Who Have You Become?
"This list, is it really complete?"
Before he was stationed in Licheng, Liu Jian asked people to bring Zhang Rang from Yecheng to him.
Anyway, at the moment, he is only training troops in Qingzhou for the time being, and he has no intention of sending troops to exterminate those Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army.
Anyway, he Liu Jian can't be idle.
In today's Luoyang City, Dong Zhuo has already joined forces with Lu Qiang, and if nothing else, Lu Qiang should submit the "List of Eunuchs' Forces in the Han Dynasty" that he knows to Dong Zhuo.
But Liu Jian estimated that the list of eunuch forces that Lu Qiang knew should be incomplete.
After all, the people who started to arrange the arrangements in the states and counties of the Han Dynasty were all ten permanent servants, and Lu Qiang did not interfere much.
Regarding the "talent legacy" left by eunuchs in various states and counties, Zhang Rang is the one who knows best.
"It's all, it's definitely all!"
Zhang Rang nodded vigorously, patted his chest at Liu Jian and promised: "Now that my life is in the hands of the envoy, how dare I talk nonsense,"
"The list on this silk silk, I have been familiar with it all these years, among them are the former officials of Zhang, as well as the villagers of Zhao Zhong, Bi Lan, Guo Sheng and my colleagues,"
"These people are now in important positions in various states and counties, and they are all people who are close to our middle and regular servants, and they are dedicated to serving Your Majesty!"
Liu Jian nodded slowly, and said, "Zhongchang Servant, from now on, you must know that the name Zhang Rang is about to disappear from this world, and there is no room for you ten permanent servants in the world,"
"If you want to live, you have to give up who you are and everything you have before...... Of course, if you don't want to, then it doesn't matter, I will send your head to Luoyang, whether it is Dong Zhuo or Yuan Kui, I think I would be more willing to see your head! β
Zhang Rang naturally understood his current situation.
The eunuchs left behind by the first emperor have been wiped out by all the people in Luoyang.
Whether it's because of the Yuan family's struggle for power and profit, or because of the political correctness of the Shi clan, or something else......
Anyway, the Ten Standing Attendants, who once played an important role in the political arena of the Han Dynasty, have now been thrown into the garbage heap of history with He Jin, and can no longer make any waves.
Let's ask, if he is a Zhang Rang again...... What will the world do with garbage?
The names of the ten permanent servants can no longer gain a foothold between heaven and earth.
Do you ask Zhang Rang willingly?
His answer must have been unwilling.
But you ask Zhang Rang if he is afraid of death?
His answer was definitely - I'm afraid of death!
In the fear of death and the nostalgia for power, Zhang Rang has no choice at all.
"As long as the envoy can save my life, and let me be willing to abandon my current identity and name, everything will be arranged by the envoy!"
Liu Jian stood up, beckoned a waiting Jizhou envoy through the door, handed him the list of silk silks written by Zhang Rang, and asked him to go to Luoyang to hand over the list to Dong Zhuo.
The current Dong Zhuo has financial and military power in Luoyang City, but he has no local support forces in the eastern part of the country.
Lu Qiang should provide Dong Zhuo with some of the former eunuchs' old department, but it will definitely not be as complete as Zhang Rang's provision.
With this list, coupled with the support of the Son of Heaven, Dong Zhuo can use the fastest speed to subdue the forces that the Ten Standing Servants have arranged in the Kanto region for many years.
As for whether you said that these eunuchs in the old departments of various states and counties will be subordinated to Dong Zhuo...... The answer is almost certain.
The ten permanent servants and the world clan have been fighting for too long, and the hatred between them has reached the point of endless death, and no one can resolve the grievances and entanglements in it.
But anyone with a long brain knows that once the scholars of the current literary department gain power in the court, they will not end well in the old department of eunuchs.
Of course, it wasn't Dong Zhuo who solicited them, they would lean over, after all, Dong Zhuo and them were not all the way.
But if there is a Lu Qiang as an intermediary, the effect will be very different.
LΓΌ Qiang is a eunuch, and he is also a eunuch with the best character, and the old department of the Ten Standing Servants is not so much to submit to Dong Zhuo as to fight against the scholars, but to attach themselves to LΓΌ Qiang in the name of submitting to Dong Zhuo.
Everyone just takes what they need.
The messenger took Liu Jian's handwritten letter and took his leave.
Zhang Rang looked at the back of the messenger leaving, and was a little distracted for a while, his chest seemed to be emptied, and it was very uncomfortable to be blocked for a while.
Seeing that Zhang Rang was stunned, Liu Jian didn't pay attention to it, he stretched his waist, casually picked up the ring knife beside him, and walked outside quickly.
After a while, Zhang Rang reacted.
He hurriedly followed Liu Jian out.
Liu Jian came to the courtyard, beckoned Zhao Yun over, and immediately practiced with him.
Over the years, in terms of martial arts, Liu Jian has not fallen for a moment, when there were Liu Bei and Zhang Fei around him, he practiced with Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, and later came to Jingshi, he took the time to fight with Yu Ze and Li Damu, and now there are more and more people around him who are good at fighting, and he replaces and fights with these people back and forth.
Anyway, if you have time to exercise yourself, take the time to exercise yourself.
Of course, as his status became higher, when these subordinates fought with him, they all began to understand the importance of Liu Bei, and they also began to show mercy to Liu Jian.
But even so, this kind of training can still make Liu Jian make a lot of progress.
By fighting with different fierce generals, Liu Jian's skills are also growing more and more, and his current martial arts skills are basically on par with Liu Bei, and he can even be a head higher than Liu Bei in archery.
In this era, it is very remarkable to be able to be on par with Liu Bei's martial arts.
After all, Liu Bei in history is also a famous emperor on the horse, Rong Ma has been a lifelong horse, and he has extremely rich experience in battle, although he is not as good as Guan Zhang Zhao, but it is by no means a huge grade.
can tie with Liu Bei, which proves that Liu Jian is also a first-class level.
Liu Jian and Zhao Yun fought against each other, sweating profusely, and then stuck the ring head sword on the ground, laughing and saying, "Happy!" β
Zhao Yun arched his hand at Liu Jian with a smile and said, "Jun's swordsmanship has become more and more proficient, and Yun is almost a little unable to resist the enemy today." β
"When did you learn to be flattering?"
Zhao Yun said with a smile: "It's not flattery, it's really sincere." β
The attendant on the side handed over a square scarf, Liu Jian wiped his head, and looked at Zhang Rang on the side.
"Done in a daze?"
Zhang Rang smiled awkwardly: "It's over, it's over, it's over......"
Liu Jian handed the scarf back to the attendant on the side and said, "From now on, you will be a member of the Liu family in my Zhuo County." β
"Huh?"
Zhang Rang was shocked when he heard this: "Let me be a member of the Liu family?" β
Liu Jian narrowed his eyes: "Your identity is so special, I don't worry about arranging a fake identity for you from another clan, only by arranging you in my clan can I protect you to the greatest extent and conceal your identity,"
"But I can tell you, the channels that can leak the news are all under my control, and the people who know that you are still alive are under my command, and I will be responsible for their mouths, but if you leak your identity yourself, don't blame me for killing you in the first place!"
Zhang Rang Shili said: "Thank you for your protection." β
"Don't worry, I didn't shelter you in vain, and I will use you in the future."
Zhang Rang asked again: "Then may I ask the lord, I don't know what name I plan to let the old slave live in the world?" β
Liu Jian couldn't help but praise secretly.
No wonder Emperor Ling of Han likes Zhang Rang, this Zhongchang waiter is really improvised, his heart is as careful as dust, and he is really not an ordinary person.
Know that at such a moment, call yourself "Lord"!
Others in Jizhou call themselves the lord, and he also asks himself to call the lord, but he is decently called and very respectful.
"This name, after all, is what you need to use in the future, you can name it for yourself, what Liu Da, Liu Er, Liu San, Liu Zhang, Liu Qi, Liu Biao, Liu Cong, Liu Jin whatever you want, anyway, the people in my clan, as long as the surname is Liu."
"Liu Jin?"
When Zhang Rang heard Liu Jian say this name, his spirits suddenly perked.
"The name Liu Jin is very good! Colorful meeting, its price is like gold, very good, very good! β
Liu Jian looked at Zhang Rang helplessly, and really didn't know what to say.
There are so many names that can be called, but I like to call such a name.
When he was young, he saw Liu Jian sigh long.
"Okay, you can call it whatever name you want, it seems that you have some fate with this name."
Zhang Rang said: "From now on, the old slave will be Liu Jin in the Liu clan of Zhuo County." β
Liu Jian said casually: "Whatever you want, I will find a way to get you a side branch identity when I go back, it is impossible for you to become a child of the Zong family in the Liu family of Zhuo County, but it should not be a big problem to make up a side branch and polish it." β
"Yes, yes! The old slave must obey the words of the master...... It's just the master, what should the old slave do under the master's hands in the future? β
Liu Jian said lightly: "It's better to do your old business, responsible for serving King Chen Liuwang and the queen, I will be responsible for building a palace for King Chen Liu's palace in Yecheng, and you serve them as King Chenliu's attendant." β
Zhang Rang...... It should be said that it was Liu Jin, who seemed to hesitate when he heard this: "It's just that King Chen Liuwang and the queen recognize the old slave......"
"Chen Liuwang is less than five years old, the queen is ten years old, the things that should be forgotten will naturally be forgotten after a long time, even if they can't be forgotten, I will find a way to help them forget, you just do what you should do."
Liu Jin said respectfully: "Yes, yes, the old slave remembers the master's order." β
Liu Jian rarely smiled at him: "Back then, you covered the sky with one hand in Luoyang, and your reputation was unique, because the emperor trusted you, and all your power was given to you by the emperor, but now you ......."
Liu Jin hurriedly said: "The old slave understands, understands...... The current old slave has lost everything, even the name and identity have been lost, King Chen Liu is not the first emperor, he can't give the old slave power, and it is useless for the old slave to cling to King Chen Liu, the power of the old slave and even the name and identity are given by the lord, and now in the world, only the lord can give the old man everything he needs when he is alive. β
Liu Jian laughed: "Sure enough, you are a smart person, no wonder the first emperor is willing to call you Ah Gong, it is indeed unusual." β
Liu Jin didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Liu Jian, he said in a low voice: "Dare to ask the lord, you let the old slave serve King Chen and the queen...... King Chen Liu's is just that, so shouldn't Queen Tang be sent back to Luoyang? After all, that His Highness is the wife of today's son......"
"Didn't you think of it?" Liu Jian said coldly: "The problem is, Dong Zhuo won't let it. β
"Dong Zhuo won't let it?"
Liu Jin just thought about it for a while, and then suddenly realized that he understood Dong Zhuo's intentions.
