Chapter Ninety-Four: Shogunate Affairs

Liu Hong didn't see He Jin's already blue face, thought for a moment, and said: "The imperial court has not canonized a party and a general for a long time, and this time I went to Xiliang to announce the canonization, which is not unimportant. Let the Father, as you see it, whom should be appointed for the better of the angels? ”

Zhang Rangmei smiled and said: "Oh, Your Majesty, the slave is only a lieutenant official, the angel candidate is so important, how dare the slave easily put his beak away?" ”

Zhang Rang paused and said, "But since Your Majesty has asked the slave, the slave must know everything." Zhongchang waits for Shuo, when this trip is combined. ”

When Jian Shuo heard this, his face changed slightly. What kind of place is Xiliang? Wars are raging everywhere, and dangers are everywhere. Zhang Rang asked him to go to Xiliang to announce the edict for the angel, and Jian Shuo understood at once: among the ten permanent servants, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong have always been the first to look forward, and only he is dissatisfied with the two of them confusing the monarch and arbitrarily exercising power. Zhang Rang is trying to squeeze him out.

Liu Hong listened to Zhang Rang's words, turned his head and glanced at Jian Shuo, who was standing the farthest away from him, and saw that Jian Shuo was a great figure, with a resolute face, with a military crown, and really had the style of a military general, but he didn't look like a lieutenant official.

Liu Hongwen smiled: "Jian Qing? ”

Even if Jian Shuo knew Zhang Rang's intention to exclude him, he didn't dare to disobey this hot eunuch. The Son of Heaven inquired again, and Jian Shuo hurriedly said, "The slave is here." ”

"I will entitle the Ma family and his son this time, and you will be the angel to go to Liangzhou to announce the canonization for me, what is it?"

"Entrusted by Your Majesty, the slave must do his best to do it well, and he should live up to His Majesty's trust."

………………………………………………

After discussing the matter of rewarding and canonizing Ma's father and son, the Son of Heaven retired from the court. He Jin walked back to his Great General's Mansion with a group of fans. Along the way, He Jin's face was still iron-blue, and his face was as heavy as water. The other followers, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Wu Kuang, Chen Lin, Zheng Tai and others followed suit, and they did not dare to touch He Jin's moldy head at this time.

It wasn't until he walked into the General's Mansion and entered the main hall that He Jin finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and when he walked to the first seat, there was a crane-shaped bronze incense burner beside him, and he couldn't help roaring, raised his feet, and kicked over the bronze incense burner that was half a person high. With a "bang", the incense burner fell to the ground suddenly, and the incense that was still smoking inside fell to the ground.

Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and the others were all startled, knowing that He Jin was angry, and no one dared to speak. He Jin didn't care, and went straight to his first seat. But before he could sit down, He Jin couldn't help but turn around and point at Yuan Shao and shouted: "Originally, you just stopped me, what is the reason?!" ”

Yuan Shao didn't dare to respond, and He Jin said angrily: "Those eunuchs are clearly supporting the Fufeng Ma clan to deal with me!" You, Yuan Benchu, have always been resourceful, don't you even know this?! ”

Yuan Shao bowed his hand and said, "Ming Gong is angry." The Ten Standing Servants reversed black and white, intending to win over the Xiliang warlords, how could I not know? ”

"If you know, why stop it?!" He Jin said angrily.

Yuan Shao raised his eyes and looked at He Jin, and said calmly: "Ming Gong, the Fufeng Ma clan has indeed made meritorious efforts to suppress thieves, no matter whether the recruitment of troops is legitimate or not, the military merits are there after all." ”

He Jin turned his head angrily and didn't speak. Yuan Shao said again: "Moreover, the Ten Standing Servants have the support of His Majesty openly and secretly, and the authority of the imperial power, how can we stop it?" ”

Hearing this, He Jin calmed down a little of his anger, but was a little depressed, and said, "Alas! Your Majesty reuses eunuchs, don't I know? ”

Everyone didn't dare to say anything, but He Jin stood up from his seat and said to himself while wandering: "Our Majesty has always been unconscious. Selling officials in the West Garden, repairing the naked tour hall, appreciating the leaves and Wangshu, and ten and one tax, one by one, which one is not at the mercy of the ten permanent servants, the world is boiling, and the people are resentful! ”

The staff members also felt the same way, and couldn't bear to nod. He Jin suddenly became angry again, and said: "But it caused the Yellow Turban Rebellion, provoked Beigong Boyu, and provoked Zhang Niujiao, how can those eunuchs afford it?" Isn't it that I will deal with these troublesome things for them, sweep the world, and help protect the Han family?! ”

"That's what Ming Gong said." Everyone said.

He Jin snorted coldly and said: "But even if I do this, do my best for Your Majesty, saddle the horse for the Han family, but still let those eunuchs step on my head, is this what Ming Jun did?" ”

Chen Lin said: "The general is angry. Your Majesty is not so ungrateful and righteous, after all, the general is now a great general who leans towards the government and the opposition, records the affairs of the book, upholds the national government, and leads the government; The whole world, listen to the general's dispatch. Regardless of the emperors Fu Song, Zhu Jun, and Zhang Wen who are outside, you still have Ben Chu, Meng De, Gaolu, Wu Kuang and others in the court, and the Southern Army, the Northern Army, the Five Captains, Hu Ben, Yulin and other armies, and you will personally take charge of half of the generals; Even the General Che Rider is your brother. If the power is so high, why should you be discouraged? ”

He Jin glanced at Chen Lin and said in his heart that this person was really a scholar.

He Jin snorted coldly and said, "Half of your palm?" And what about the other half? Since I'm a great general, why don't you let me take it all? Isn't it jealous of my relatives? As for He Miao, don't say anything about that traitor! ”

Everyone knew that He Miao only listened to the queen's dispatch, and the queen wanted to use He Miao to balance He Jin to prevent He Jin from being disobedient.

Cao Cao heard this, and said loudly: "What Ming Gong said is extremely true! ”

He Jin raised his eyes and glanced at Cao Cao, this person was not tall and slightly dark, and he was the grandson of Cao Teng, who was often servant in his hometown, he had never been very close. If it weren't for the fact that this person once killed his uncle who often served Jian Shuo with a five-color stick, he would not have been a confidant.

Cao Cao said: "The sister of the Duke of Ming is Her Royal Highness the Queen, and Her Royal Highness has a prince; Ming Gong Bing military regime, hundreds of officials in the court, Chinese and foreign courtiers, who dares to disobey? Even if the Ming Duke is loyal, how can His Majesty not be jealous? ”

He Jin looked at Cao Cao for a long time, sighed, and said, "It's still Meng De's wisdom and getting to the point." ”

Cao Cao said again: "But even so, Ming Gong must not take half a step back." The Ten Standing Servants are already in the same boat as Ming Gong, and His Majesty is also very wary of Ming Gong. Ming Gong can only go further, in order to achieve the unfinished business of Chen Fan and Dou Wu, kill the eunuchs, and correct the world! In this way, the Ming Gongfang has a glimmer of life. ”

He Jin also knew that this was true, and asked again: "Then what if I take a step back?" ”

Cao Cao's eyes flashed with light, and he said: "Then I can only dare to say that there are only two roads in front of Ming Gong, that is, the living road and the dead road. And Ming Gong didn't choose the way to live, but chose one of the dead ends! ”

He Jin was slightly startled and asked, "Mengde, what do you mean by this?" ”

Cao Cao said: "Since ancient times, the matter of court disputes has been a matter of life and death. Since the beginning of my dynasty, eunuchs and relatives have had bad relations, and I don't know how many eunuchs have killed them, and I don't know how many relatives have been castrated and ambushed. Not to mention, Wang Fu raised a palace mutiny, held the Son of Heaven hostage, controlled Shangshutai and seized the jade seal of the country, and forced Shangshu to write a pseudo-edict to transfer troops, and Chen Fan, Dou Wu and Tai students were killed. In today's situation, Ming Gong and Jean are either Ming Gong dies, or let Wait live! If Ming Gong takes a step back, let him wait further, it will be an abyss! I don't know what doubts Ming Gong has? ”
