Chapter 306: The Imperial Struggle (I)

Ma Chao didn't know that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu had such a story in his family before, so after hearing it, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Ma Chao thought to himself, in this way, Yuan Shao instructed Chen Lin to scold Cao Cao as "eunuch and ugly" in the text, in fact, it can't be said, because Yuan Shao himself also has a eunuch uncle. After Yuan Shao scolded Cao Cao for being a eunuch, in fact, he himself had nothing to do with the eunuch, which was fifty steps and a hundred steps.

Huangfu Song said again: "After the death of Cao Jie and Wang Fu, it was time for the Ten Standing Servants to take power. He Jin competed for power and profit with the Ten Standing Servants, fought against dissidents in the court, and made friends with his henchmen. Both sides want to win over Yuan Kui, who is one of the three princes, and Yuan Kui has always maintained the momentum of riding the wall on the surface, and no one is attached. But he secretly took refuge in He Jin, secretly instructed Yuan Shao to make friends with the party, and made Yuan Shu a general in the tiger and mastered the guards of the forbidden province.

The Ten Standing Servants didn't know that Yuan Kui had secretly taken refuge in He Jin, and still fantasized about wooing Yuan Kui, so they always turned a blind eye to Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's actions. When Yuan Shao colluded with the party members, and when Yuan Shu mastered the Tiger Army, Yuan Kui tore off his disguise. He Jin openly recruited Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu to serve in his shogunate. The collusion between He Jin and Yuan Kui was made public.

At this time, through Yuan Shao, He Jin became the leader of the party and responded to it among the party; Through Yuan Shu, He Jin mastered the Tiger Ben Army in the Su Guard Forbidden and extended his power into the palace forbidden. Originally, the power of the ten permanent servants was far greater than He Jin, and the world was full of his sons and nephews, doormen, henchmen, and supporters. Yuan Kui's surrender greatly increased He Jin's power, and he was on par with the Ten Standing Servants. ”

Ma Chao couldn't help but gasp and said, "This Yuan Kui made up his mind and then acted, he can really be described as scheming and cunning." ”

Huangfu Song sighed and said, "Yes! Therefore, if the subordinates want to enter Beijing to fight with these two people, they must not be cautious. ”

Ma Chao said: "I can save it." ”

Huangfu Song looked at Ma Chao and said, "But looking at the resourcefulness of his subordinates, he may not be able to really fight these two people." After all, his subordinates entered Beijing this time with their own intentions. If the subordinates want to realize their intentions, they must be desperate. Maybe even if He Jin and Yuan Kui join forces, they can't stop their subordinates from realizing their intentions. ”

Ma Chao was said to be thoughtful, and hesitated: "How do my subordinates know that I have my own intentions?" ”

Huangfu Song looked at Ma Chao quietly, snorted lightly, and said, "Everyone in the world has their own intentions. He Jinzhi's intention was to suppress the Ten Standing Servants and force His Majesty to canonize the eldest prince as the crown prince, so that he could become the second of Liang Ji and take charge of the world; The intention of the Ten Standing Servants was to suppress He Jin, continue to maintain power, and continue to make eunuchs assist and hold great power after the next emperor succeeded to the throne.

With the wisdom and strategy of his subordinates, how can he lead the army into Beijing, how can he just obediently obey His Majesty's orders, serve His Majesty's wings, and suppress the court? The reason why his subordinates are willing to enter Beijing must be because they have other intentions, and other old men don't know what their intentions are. Can the subordinate inform the old man of his intentions? ”

Ma Chao said: "What your subordinates only need to know is that there is no conflict between my intentions and loyalty to Your Majesty. On the contrary, my intentions can only be realized with the help of His Majesty. ”

Huangfu Song looked at Ma Chao suspiciously, and there was silence between the two for a long time before he said, "Maybe!" No matter what the intentions of his subordinates are, please remember that here in Guanzhong, there is also an emperor who is loyal to the Han family and His Majesty! ”

Ma Chao smiled: "My subordinate is a smart person. ”

Huangfu Song looked at the sun, it was already evening, and he could barely see Ma Chao's face.

Huangfu Song said: "The old man has written a statement exposing and reporting He Jin and Yuan Kui, presumably before his subordinates entered Beijing, His Majesty had severely punished the two. Hurry up and lead the army into Beijing, 20,000 Xiliang iron cavalry is enough for a total of 40,000 or 50,000 cavalry of the Southern Army, the Fifth School of the Northern Army, the Captain of the City Gate, the Captain of the Guard, and the soldiers of the Shaofu in the hands of the Ten Standing Attendants, who dare not act rashly. ”

Ma Chao nodded and said, "Since that's the case, don't leave it at that!" ”

Huangfu Song put his hands together in a dignified manner, and bowed to Ma Chao slightly on the horse.

Ma Chao worshiped more deeply because the official was lower than Huangfu Song.

After saying goodbye, Ma Chao led his troops and continued to march east.

Huangfu Song stood at the horse from afar, watching the figure of Xiliang Tie riding eastward, disappearing little by little under the gradually darkening sky.

Zhou Shen said: "Che ride, Xiliang Tieqi has left, don't look at it anymore, let's go into the city!" ”

Huangfu Song didn't answer, he still looked at the direction where Xiliang Tieqi was far away, and muttered to himself: "Ma Chao entered Beijing, I don't know how much wind and rain it will set off!" ”

………………………………………………

On the morning of the next day when Ma Chao led his army to Luoyang City, in Luoyang City, in the Nangong Chongde Palace, in the wide hall, hundreds of bureaucrats were divided into two rows, one wearing dark court clothes and the other wearing yellow court clothes, kneeling on the ground in unison, their foreheads tightly attached to the ground, not daring to lift up. The two kneeling in the front, the middle-aged man is wearing a yellow court dress and a five-beam crown on his head; The elderly wore dark court clothes and also wore five-beam crowns. The two knelt in front of him, just under His Majesty Dan, their bodies trembling slightly.

In the main hall, above His Majesty Dan, there were ten people standing with their bows bowed, only one person stood upright, and only that one person roared with anger, resounding throughout the entire Deyang Palace.

"One is the general of Lu Shangshushi, and the other is the Taifu above the three dukes, these are the two most core people in the imperial court, and they are the two people I rely on the most. But they privately gave orders to the generals outside, bypassing the court, bypassing Shangshutai, and bypassing me! You even dare to do private automators, what else is there in the world, you dare not do it! ”

The one who roared these words was undoubtedly Emperor Liu Hong. At this time, he was walking around angrily on His Majesty Dan, angrily pointing at He Jin and Yuan Kui who were kneeling below, and scolding angrily, and the scolding echoed in the Deyang Palace, one after another.

Liu Hong scolded again: "Huangfu Song has a full 100,000 cavalry, which is the most powerful part of the Han Dynasty." Even in Luoyang City, the combined strength of the Southern Army, the Northern Army, the City Gate Captain, the Guard Captain, Guangluxun, and the Shaofu did not add up to 50,000! How dare you privately pass on an order and mobilize the Huangfu Song Department?

You can order the Huangfu Song Department to attack Liangzhou, why don't you want to mobilize the Huangfu Song Department to attack Luoyang City! After all, Liangzhou has Liangzhou Thorn History and General Shenwei to lead the 50,000 Western Liang Army for me, which is the strongest army in the world, which is much more difficult to deal with than these troops in Luoyang City!
