Empress he looked at the ten constant attendants kneeling in front of her, but she looked embarrassed. She didn't know what to do.
According to the truth, the general He Jin is her brother. She should stand firmly on her brother's side. However, although the ten constant servants are not at odds with He Jin, they usually respect her.
Empress he sighed: "this palace is just a woman's family. It's unarmed. Your Majesty's new death. How can our orphans and widows protect your servants?"
Zhang rang said in a low voice: "now that your majesty has just died, but no one has been established, please come forward and let the general go out of the palace with the courtesy of a minister. On the one hand, it can protect us, and on the other hand, it can save the face of the general."
In fact, after hearing Jian Shuo's death, empress he knew that there was no one else in the throne of emperor except her own son, so Liu Bian would become the new emperor no matter whether he Jin or not.
In this way, it's all right to sell them to ten constant servants for a face, and it's also for the sake of his brother he Jinhao. Otherwise, if the news gets out, he Jin's reputation will be greatly bad.
"Well, I will send an order." Empress he was secretly pleased that Liu Bian was still young and wanted to let her participate in politics. The first thing to do was to let that beauty Wang drink poison wine!
At the beginning of May of the sixth year of Zhongping, Prince Liu Bian was made emperor because he was too young. Empress dowager he was in charge of politics. He Jin, the general, and Yuan Wei, the great general, assisted in the administration and recorded the book affairs.
Liu Bian succeeded to the throne, and he Jin won a major political victory. However, in his mind, he was still deeply distressed by eunuchs, so he still wanted to kill eunuchs.
"Today, the general is in charge of the military power both inside and outside Luoyang, and should kill eunuchs for the world. However, the coffin of the former Emperor is in the palace, so the general should not enter or leave the palace at will."
He Jin praised Yuan Shao's opinions, so he said he was ill and didn't attend the funeral ceremony of Lingdi. He also discussed with the princes in the shogunate to get rid of the ten constant attendants.
When the news reached the Empress Dowager he, he did not listen to his brother.
It is a rule handed down from ancient times that eunuchs command the forbidden areas. Now, the emperor has just passed away, and he has abandoned the ten Chang courtrooms. How can we get along with the scholars?
At the insistence of empress he, the ten constant attendants saved their lives for the time being. He Jin was also indecisive. He could not directly break his face with his sister, so they had to stand on each other.
General's house.
He Jin frowned and said, "I would have wanted to get rid of the ten constant attendants for a long time. I didn't expect Zhang rang and Zhao Zhong to seek the protection of the Empress Dowager. What should we do for today's plan?"
After a while, Yuan Shao stood up and said, "at the end of the day, there will be a plan."
He Jin nodded: "at first, if you have something to say, please say it."
Yuan Shao said: "the Empress Dowager's protection of the ten constant attendants is to conclude that the generals are concerned about their brothers and sisters and dare not lead soldiers to kill them. There is a plan to kill them by using the sword."
Hearing this, he Jin suddenly became interested: "Oh? Whose knife do you borrow? "
Yuan Shao smile: "Hanoi prefect, General Wang Kuang, now stationed in Hanoi, the general can order Wang Kuang to lead his crossbow to Luoyang."
"The former general, Bingzhou Mu Dong Zhuo, supported tens of thousands of soldiers and ordered him to stay in Shanglin yuan."
"Wu Meng Xiaowei, the governor of Bingzhou, Dingyuan, can be ordered to lead his troops to intimidate Mengjin."
"Dongjun prefect Qiaomao can be ordered to stay in Chenggao."
Yuan Shao said with a smile: "in this way, Empress Dowager he will feel panic. Maybe she will hand over the ten constant attendants and let the general slaughter them."
As soon as this was said, all the people present changed their faces, and he Jin laughed.
"Well, the original strategy was very good. Before the emperor's bones were cold, the general would never be able to lead troops into the palace. It would be better if the Empress Dowager could release them."
"No!"
The crowd followed the voice and saw that the man who could speak was Cao Cao, a captain of the army. His face was red.
He Jin doubted: "what's Meng De's opinion?"
Cao Cao said coldly: "it's just killing several eunuchs. Why use the troops of Dong Zhuo, Ding Yuan, Qiao Mao and Wang Kuang? How can you kill a chicken with a knife? "
After that, Cao Cao bowed his hand and said, "please, the general and my 500 elite soldiers will lead the soldiers into the palace today, and they will surely bring the head of Zhang rang Zhao Zhong."
He Jin frowned and said not to use force as much as possible. Good, Cao ahan, you are still here to talk nonsense to me.
He Jin said coldly: "state affairs, what do eunuchs know after the eunuch, you give Ben will retire!"
"General!"
"Step back!"
Cao Cao sighed and walked out of the room.
"Those who disturb the world will surely introduce and advance."
Chen Lin, one of the books on the other side, also admonished him: "the book of changes says that deer can't be obtained if they go away. Nowadays, the generals hold the military power, and they are very powerful. If they want to eradicate eunuchs, they are just like burning their hair with a stove. What's the problem? Why do you have to fight? Fear is the cause of chaos. "
He Jin's face was cold: "Kong Zhang, you don't have to say much, this matter will have its own decision."In fact, many of the remaining people wanted to say something, but seeing he Jin's cold face, he immediately swallowed all the words he wanted to say.
"Originally, it's up to you."
Yuan Shao was overjoyed: "here."
……
"What do you think, Ben?"
Cao Cao angrily looked at the small man, the truth cut his brain with a sword, and took a good look at what was inside.
Yuan Shao said calmly: "Meng De, I know that you are dissatisfied because you are rejected by the general, but it is not necessary."
Cao Cao said coldly: "since ancient times, foreign ministers with military power have entered the capital. It has been a disaster. It's OK for Wang Kuang and Qiao Mao to say that, but Dong Zhuo Ding was a hero with a lot of soldiers in his hands. Do you not know what consequences will be caused by such figures entering Beijing?"
Yuan Shao disdained to say: "mengde, the general also holds a heavy army. Moreover, even if it is to cause chaos, the army of the king will arrive in a moment. What's to worry about?"
After that, he patted Cao Cao on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Meng De, you should think from the perspective of a general. The Empress Dowager is the younger sister of the general. If they fight each other, are they not fighting in the same room? The elder brother's plan can make the general execute ten constant servants if they are bloodless, so the general will agree. "
Cao Cao looked at Yuan Shao with a complicated look and turned around.
"I still have some chores to deal with, so I won't delay my brother Benchu."
"Good to go."
Yuan Shaomu sent Cao Cao away, and his eyes suddenly became crafty.
"If we don't attract the two hungry wolves, Ding Yuan Dong Zhuo, to fight for power with the general, how can we profit from it?"
Dong Zhuo Ding Yuan and other large armies advanced at the same time, and troops were stationed in all directions of Luoyang.
