At today's court meeting, Xiao Huangmen'er Jianshuo's power skyrocketed, becoming the first confidant of Emperor Liu Hong, and he also took charge of the military power, directly responsible for the safety of the emperor, and for a time, the power leaned towards the government and the opposition! Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty and Jian Shuo became the biggest winners!

Empress Dowager Dong did not object, because of the decision made after repeated weighing, this is his own ally, although Dong Chong played the image of a superfluous person today, but at least there is no loss, the most important thing is that He Jin has lost face, the military power has been suppressed, becoming the biggest loser, and the opponent is weakened, which is equivalent to his own strengthening, and he is the emperor's mother, blood is thicker than water, there is no need to worry about anything, and Liu Hong's attitude is also the same in the face of He Lian and He Jin!

Zhuang Shaoyou was confused and was named a leader, and he is still confused, what kind of position is this? Not even a word! It's stingy! Indeed, Zhonglingjun is only a third-grade general, and for Zhuang Shaoyou, who is in a high position in Jinwu, it is indeed a bit chicken!

However, Zhonglingjun is the head of the three-rank generals, which can be regarded as an official confirmation of Zhuang Shaoyou's status in the army, unlike the non-embarrassing and unembarrassed Wen Buwu Wu, and it also represents the recognition of Zhuang Shaoyou's military talent by Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty, and intends to let him develop in the direction of the army, but he can't be given too high a reward at one time. Moreover, the status of the leader of the middle army is higher than that of the other eight captains of the West Park except for Jian Shuo.

The most important thing is that through this appointment, Zhuang Shaoyou was announced to the hundred officials as Emperor Liu Hong's person, and he was clearly given the right to be in charge of the defense of Luoyang, this signal had two meanings, the first was that His Majesty the Emperor intended to take back control of Luoyang from He Jin; The second meaning is Jian Shuo's own careful thinking, because he thinks that Zhuang Shaoyou is very good, he wants money and money, and he can fight He Jin all over the ground to find teeth, so he came up with such an idea to let Zhuang Shaoyou and He Jin compete for control of Luoyang.

Now the emperor will move to the West Garden, the eight captains of the West Garden are all cronies directly appointed by the emperor, and these eight captains all have good backgrounds, and there is a strong family force behind them, such as Yuan Shao, such as Cao Cao, even Zhao Rong and Feng Fang are not vegetarians, they themselves are in important positions, and more importantly, this move takes away part of He Jin's military power! The emperor is no longer in the palace, and the guards in the palace have become decorations, and their importance has dropped greatly! If Zhuang Shaoyou can seize control of Luoyang City again, then He Jin will be at an absolute disadvantage in this struggle!

Unless He Jin immediately rebelled, he might be able to achieve victory, once Liu Hong moved away, then he would always be at a disadvantage, because Liu Hong is the emperor, occupying the absolute righteous name, and there is nothing to do with a few holy decrees to make He Jin idle, and there is nothing to do! But now there is a rebellion right away? What's the difference between that and suicide? Rebellion is not a trivial matter, it has to be carefully planned, how can it be done in a hurry?

Therefore, Liu Hong and Jian Shuo played this hand very smartly! I'm a king, you're a minister, whatever I say, and I'm going to do it soon, I don't give you any time at all, wait for you to react, hey~ I have already moved away~ What is love! What can you do?

Zhuang Shaoyou and Wang Yun walked outside the palace, Wang Yun kept complimenting along the way, this time Zhuang Shaoyou's power skyrocketed, but just after walking far, Zhuang Shaoyou was stopped by a little eunuch, then Wang Yun suddenly understood that the emperor was looking for him! Sure enough, it's the emperor's henchman! Gotta stammer!

Zhuang Shaoyou said goodbye to Wang Yun and followed the little eunuch to the palace.

Wang Yun went out of the palace gate and got into his carriage, and the coachman asked, "Master, are you going back to the house?" ”

Wang Yun sighed slightly: "Go to the West Garden outside the city to have a look!" Liu Hong moved today, he had to step on it first, and he had to know everything in his heart!

……

Zhuang Shaoyou followed the little eunuch through the two palaces and came to a garden, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, flowers and trees, idle fish and birds, with this sunny sun, there is really a bit of the charm of the Jiangnan water town in summer!

From afar, I saw Liu Hong half-lying on the soft couch, the two palace maids pinched his shoulders, Jian Shuo stood beside Liu Hong respectfully, there were seven people opposite Liu Hong, with different postures, this is the eighth captain of the West Garden, right?

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao themselves are really seeing each other for the first time! Zhuang Shaoyou walked in the direction of Liu Hong while thinking, and before he got close, Liu Hong waved his hand and said, "Aiqing is exempt, 500,000, you know!" ”

Zhuang Shaoyou's shame, this is too, too, too direct, right? Liu Hong's appearance fee is really expensive! If you see each other, you will get 500,000! No way, who made the family the emperor! I thought of the endorsement fee of 5 million yuan per month promised to Liu Hong, well, I have to hurry up and do some business, I am rich, but no one can bear such a trick!

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhuang Shaoyou bowed slightly and saluted Liu Hong, while the seven people next to him looked at Zhuang Shaoyou with different expressions, and they didn't know what they were thinking. Zhuang Shaoyou looked at the seven people, led by a man, about eight feet tall, about thirty years old, with a neat beard and a military uniform, standing there.

It's so domineering! Zhuang Shaoyou couldn't help but praise, this is the legendary Yuan Shao Yuan Benchu, right? Standing at the forefront of the seven, you can't go wrong! Yuan Shao glanced at Zhuang Shaoyou lightly, without any expression.

Compared with the few people behind Yuan Shao, both in appearance and momentum, Zhuang Shaoyou swept his eyes and wanted to find Cao Cao, but he was really not sure for a while! At this moment, an inconspicuous man standing behind Yuan Shao arched his hand and said, "In Xia Cao Mengde, I have seen General Zhuang!" A few days ago, I sent a greeting to the general! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou heard it, is this Cao Cao, the first traitor of the Three Kingdoms? It's really not good-looking! is more than seven feet tall, and every facial feature looks quite upright, but the effect of putting it together is not flattering! Is this the thirty-year-old Cao Cao? It's not the same as I imagined! So he hurriedly bowed his hand and saluted back: "Brother Meng De, I have been busy with affairs recently, please forgive me!" ”

Liu Hong waved his hand and said casually: "Ladies and gentlemen, you are all my confidants, and you will have time to contact in the future, and slowly understand, I am calling you Aiqing here today in the hope that you can work with one heart and one mind, serve my Han, and serve me!" ”

Jian Shuo next to him shouted: "The emperor trusts you so much, why are you still stunned?" ”

The eight people below hurriedly swore in unison: "The ministers are willing to go to the soup for Your Majesty, and then die!" ”

Liu Hong looked at everyone with satisfaction and said, "Okay, I'm ready to move!" You Aiqing can enter and exit the West Garden at will in the future, I have specially approved it! Stand down,"

The other seven people hurriedly retreated, but Zhuang Shaoyou stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, last night Hu Ben Zhonglang led Yuan Shu to lead the forbidden army to attack the northern army camp of the minister, because of Yuan Shu's arrogance, provoked a mutiny, and those soldiers did not dare to return afterwards, and are currently stationed in the northern army camp of the minister, and the minister implored the emperor to forgive his crimes!" ”

Liu Hong smiled: "Zhuang Aiqing's ability is not small, even the enemy army can be persuaded to surrender, okay, I will assign them to you to command!" ”

"Your Majesty! It's not right! Please think twice! Jian Shuo next to him was shocked, the forbidden army commanded by Yuan Shu was Liu Hong's descendant, well-equipped, well-trained, and well-paid, which should have been assigned to himself, but now it was directly given to Zhuang Shaoyou, so didn't Zhuang Shaoyou take a big advantage?

Liu Hong waved his hand: "I have made up my mind!" Jian Aiqing doesn't need to say much! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou thanked him calmly, and then he was about to retire, then Liu Hong said: "Zhuang Aiqing, your thousand-year-old ginseng has a good effect, and the dosage is relatively large, so... ”

When Zhuang Shaoyou heard this, he was taken aback, so big a thousand-year-old ginseng was used up? Isn't he afraid of dying from an explosion? That's hard to find! However, he hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, the thousand-year-old ginseng was obtained by the minister from Goguryeo by chance, and it is difficult to find it in a hurry, but the minister still has an eight-hundred-year-old mountain ginseng in his hand, I wonder if the emperor can use it for the time being?" The minister immediately sent someone to find it! ”

Liu Hong was a little disappointed, the millennium and the eight hundred years seem to be not much different from the year, but the efficacy is worlds apart, and he blames himself for using it too hard, several rounds a night, so it took less than a month to use most of it, and it seems that I have to save some time in the future!

"Okay, that's it for now! Aiqing quickly went to find it, if you can find it, I will waive your endorsement fee for half a year! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou thanked him and retired, but he scolded secretly in his heart, thousand-year-old ginseng is a priceless treasure, can it be covered by half a year's endorsement fee? It's shameless! That 800-year-old ginseng alone is worth 20 million! The value of thousand-year-old ginseng is definitely more than 50 million! Damn, it's a big loss, in order to tie up with the emperor, but he spent a lot of money, this is good, he is addicted!

Zhuang Shaoyou scolded and walked outside the palace, and as soon as he walked outside the palace gate, he found that Cao Cao was still waiting there!

"General Zhuang! It is inconvenient to speak, so I take the liberty to wait here, if there is any abruptness, please forgive the general! ”

"Brother Meng De said something, and Brother Meng De is also familiar at first sight!"

The two of them exchanged half-truths and half-truths, Cao Cao was a little puzzled in his heart, I heard that this General Zhuang was arrogant and ruthless, no one paid attention to him, and he didn't blink an eye when he killed people, but now it seems that he is so polite, and the rumors are really not to be believed!

"General Zhuang, have you ever been free tonight? My father held a banquet in the house to invite the general! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou pondered, Cao Cao and his father? Cao Song? Is that the unlucky old man who was killed by Tao Qian later?

"Brother Meng De, there is already an appointment tonight, how about tomorrow night?"

"In this way, tomorrow night, my father and Meng De will be waiting for the general in the mansion! Mende farewell! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou looked at Cao Cao's departing figure and fell into deep thought, is this the generation of traitors who will be famous in Kyushu in the future? I really can't see it now, but Yuan Shao looks awesome! It's really unseemly, and the sea is incomprehensible!
