The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

More in the afternoon.レm♠思♥Road♣客レ

He Yong was indeed here on behalf of Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao was ambitious and determined to eliminate eunuchs. As mentioned in the previous article, the power of eunuchs in this dynasty was extremely strong. To accomplish this, Yuan Shao alone would obviously not be enough. It has been a minister for many generations, but first, it is difficult to do this with the Yuan family alone. Second, Yuan Shao's high-ranking clansmen and fathers have a different attitude towards eunuchs than Yuan Shao. They treat eunuchs more. It is because the well water does not invade the river water, and even tends to become a powerful force. It is not like Li Ying and other party members who are resolutely incompatible with eunuchs. It is also because of this that the Yuan family can still retain wealth and honor even when many famous people in the world are imprisoned. If Yuan Shao wants to accomplish this great thing, he must make friends with like-minded people, and the more capable people who are like him, the better.

Xun Zhen is a capable person, but isn't he the same as him? In other words, Xun Zhen may have the same path as him, and he also has the will to eliminate eunuchs, but does he have the courage? On this point, Yuan Shao needed confirmation, so he invited He Yong to meet Xun Zhen and try it out. ..

In the past 20 years, the party has been entangled twice, and many celebrities and party members have died. The lessons are not far away, and the tragic situation is still present. If Xun Zhen didn't know the direction of history, he might recruit Yuan Shao like Xun You and Xi Zhicai. It was the same contradiction and hesitation, but since he knew the direction of history, he would certainly accept the olive branch that Yuan Shao handed over, and would not refuse it.

From Fanyang Pavilion, to Xixiang Youzhi Qiangfu, to the postal supervisor in the northern part of the county, then to the county soldier Cao Ye, then to the military Sima, then to the other department Sima, and then to today rì/Bi Er Qianshi Lieutenant Zhao Guo, looking back on these years, Xun Zhen has not been easy to walk step by step, especially before this year, his highest official position was only a Baishi official in the county. It can be said that his fortune was all because of the rise of the Yellow Turbans. thing. By suppressing the Yellow Turban Uprising, he took advantage of the situation, and the imperial court lifted the party/ban. Because of his military exploits, he reached 2,000 stone, got acquainted with Cao cāo, and caught Yuan Shao's line through Cao cāo. He received Yuan Shao's attention, and He Yong personally came to meet him.

If it is said that he was only famous in the county, and most famous in the state, what he can change is only a part of history, but he deviates from the main line of history, then after meeting He Yong this time and being officially included in Yuan Shao's party, he There will be qualifications and opportunities to participate and change the main line of history. Of course, this "participation and change" is not about now, but four years later.

After all, at the moment, even Yuan Shao is still "famous all over the world" and has no real power to control the political situation, but it will be different in four years. After four years, the old real power figures are almost dead. , General He Jin, Ten Chang Shi and other eunuchs all died, leaving a huge power vacuum. After Dong Zhuo entered the capital, he "reversed", arousing dissatisfaction and opposition from the world's gentry. Yuan Shao, such a famous and well-connected young man. The leaders of the Zhuang faction naturally have the opportunity to stand out.

Xun Zhen hoped that after four years, he would become one of the Guandong princes who attacked Dong Zhuo, like Cao Cāo and Zhang Miao of Yuan Shao's party. After graduation, you will compete for the capital of the world.

Since he had this thought in mind, the meeting with He Yong was of course very pleasant.

Before He Yong could reveal Yuan Shao's intentions, he bluntly said: "Yingchuan borders Runan, Yuan Benchu ​​and I are from the prefecture, and I have heard that he used to work with He Gong to help the poor, help the party members, and serve the world. The aspirations of those who are ambitious. When Duke He returns to Luoyang, please tell Yuan Jun that if you need me in the future, even if you only need a letter to send it, I will do my best."

Xun Zhen's attitude is very sincere, and her attitude is also very low.

He couldn't help but keep his attitude low. Cao cāo's father was deeply favored by today's sons, and he was a popular man in the current court, but even Cao cāo bowed his head consciously or unconsciously when facing Yuan Shao. He Yong, Zhang Miao , Wu Qiong, Xu You, etc. are all famous people at home and abroad, and they have been famous for a long time, but they also respect Yuan Shao very much, not to mention Xun Zhen, who has neither a strong background nor a good reputation.

When it comes to the Yuan family, it is true that "disciples and former officials are all over the court, the state and the county". Not to mention, only in the past ten years, there have been three members of the Yuan family who have been the third princes. In the first year of Xiping, Yuan Wei was worshiped as Situ. In the 5th year of Xiping, Yuan Wei was worshipped as Sikong again. In the first year of Guanghe, Yuan Pang was worshipped as Situ. In March of the second year of Guanghe, in the past year, two people on the three-kilometer side were members of the Yuan family. In the fifth year of Guanghe, Yuan Wei was worshipped as Situ, the third prince of the court. How many people were there? It is extremely easy for the Yuan family to ask for it. The three princes have the power to expel government officials, and they also have the power to "raise officials". how many.

The Xun family is also a famous family in the world, but the Xun family started from Xun Shu. It has been less than 30 years. There are several 2,000 stone prefects in the family, not to mention the three princes, even Jiuqing. It has been done, which is far worse than that of a top-level valve like Yuan.

How could Xun Zhen not lower her posture?

He Yongji was delighted by Xun Zhen's statement.

He Yong was a chivalrous person who didn't like to go around in circles. Xun Zhen didn't wait for him to mention the things that Yuan Shao had entrusted to him, and he offered to join them in exterminating the eunuchs. This made him feel very happy and overjoyed. , When I first saw Meng De, I sighed and said: 'The Han family is about to perish, and the one who will bring peace to the world must be this person.' , handsome talent, with Meng De, with your help, I and I will work together, although the Han Dynasty will perish, but the world will be at peace!"

"The Han family will perish", He Yong can say it to Xun Zhen, and he trusts Xun Zhen very much. This is due to the fact that the Xun family has a clear name, and the reason why Xun Zhen had Zhang Rang's nephew Zhang Zhi arrested and imprisoned when he was in Yingchuan.

Xun Zhen said, "Yes."

"Yuan Ben's original intention was to get rid of them, but now the party has been shackled, and many celebrities and gentry who have been imprisoned have gone out of the state and county. My generation is very powerful, and the eunuchs are panicked. Zhenzhi, you should be prudent and self-respect, and hide your tools in your body."

…

As the official of the Sikong Mansion, He Yong couldn't stay in Handan for a long time. After reaching a consensus with Xun Zhen on castration, he left in the afternoon.

After seeing He Yong away and returning to the Fuzhong Hall, Xun You and Xi Zhicai asked Xun Zhen what he and He Yong had been talking about behind closed doors in the morning.

Xun Zhen did not hide the two of them, and said: "He Gongyan Yuan Benchu ​​persuaded the general to execute the eunuch."

He Yong hinted very clearly in the sentence "The generals love famous people", Yuan Shaoxian wanted to use He Lai to kill the eunuchs.

In the era of the two Han Dynasties, foreign relatives and eunuchs took turns in power. The former Han foreign relatives were prosperous in the eunuchs. In this dynasty, the new emperors who ascended the throne were mostly from the clan, and the eunuchs in the inner palace had to be used to hold the power. Therefore, the eunuchs were prosperous in the foreign relatives, and the eunuchs and the foreign relatives often competed for power. Victory, for example, in the time of the late emperor, with the help of the five people, including Shan Chao and Tang Heng, the former emperor was able to execute the domineering general Liang Ji. The power overwhelms the government and the opposition, and it is like this dynasty. Because the previous emperors used eunuchs a lot, the eunuchs in the early years of the dynasty had become very powerful. At that time, Dou Wu and Chen Fan, the relatives of the generals, sought them out. His death triggered the first party disaster.

Although the foreign relatives and eunuchs of this dynasty often lose in the battle, but in order to kill the eunuchs, the scholars must and can only pass the foreign relatives.

Because according to the practice of the two Han dynasties, most of the foreign relatives were worshipped as generals, with great power and military power.

If Yuan Shao can persuade He Jin, who is now a general, and Xun Zhen knows that he has indeed persuaded He Jin, then he will have the military power of the general, and there will be Cao Cao, who has been appointed as the prefect, and many party members who have returned. With the support of celebrities, supplemented by Yuan's reputation, and the former officials of his disciples, as long as there is no stupor, careful planning in advance, and decisive handling of the incident, it is still possible to get rid of the **** in the palace in one fell swoop.

Xun You said, "Lieutenant, do you think Yuan Benchu ​​can persuade the general?"

Xun Zhen asked Xi Zhicai, "Zhi Cai, what do you think?"

"At the time of the first emperor, Qi Liangji was excluded from the 'five lords', and Dou Wu, the great general of this dynasty, also plotted to execute all the eunuchs. Why can't the eunuchs and their relatives stand side by side? Government, eunuchs have no power. Although the general was born in humble beginnings, but now he is a general, and he has broken the yellow turban, and his prestige has risen, how can there be no intention to fight for power? Yuan Benchu ​​will surely be able to persuade him."

Xun You thought about it carefully, but he was not so optimistic about the matter after all, and said: "What Zhicai said is true, but Zhuzhong often lives in the deep palace, accompanies the emperor day and night, and has won the emperor's trust. Yuan Benchu ​​is able to persuade the emperor. General, it is not easy to kill them all, so the general Dou Wu has high hopes from scholars all over the world, and there are many important ministers and celebrities to help, but in the end he also fails? Unless..."

"Unless what?"

Xun You shook his head, but refused to speak.

Dou Wu was the great-great-grandson of Dou Rong, one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai. His daughter was the empress of the late emperor and the empress dowager of the current dynasty. His family background and fame are far superior to He Jin, and when he and Chen Fan and others plotted to execute the eunuch, it was not long after Zichu ascended the throne today. The power of the **** was not comparable to that of today. Because the garrison in Kyoto "fears the middle officials", which means that most of the garrison in Kyoto are controlled by eunuchs and lose their lives.

It is indeed very difficult for He Jin to succeed, and it is even more difficult to achieve success through normal means.

Although Xun You didn't finish his words, Xun Zhen and Xi Zhicai knew what he wanted to say: "Unless extraordinary means are used."

What is an extraordinary measure? That is: when the eunuchs were unprepared, they suddenly launched a mutiny and entered the palace to execute them.

Does He Jin have the courage? Xun You doubted this.

Xun Zhen sighed secretly and said in her heart, "If He Jin had the courage, then the coup d'état four years later wouldn't have been so bloody." But he couldn't say this to Xun You and Xi Zhicai.

Xi Zhicai asked, "Apart from these, what else did you say?"

"He Gong asked me to write more letters with General Huangfu."

The destruction of the Yellow Turbans, UU reading www.uukanshu. com Huangfu Song has the eight successes alone. He is now the general of the left chariot and cavalry. His position in the imperial court is second only to He Jin, and his reputation is far higher than that. He is also the Jizhou shepherd who holds real power. He is very important. If he can get him If you have the support, then you will be able to have more control over the matter of exterminating the eunuch.

"Anything else?"

"He also inquired about the thieves in the west of Zhao County, and how we had defeated Zuo Xu and Huang Yan successively. He said that he would pass this on to Duke Sikong Zhang, and also suggested that I could put more effort into fighting the thieves. "

Xun You and Xi Zhicai glanced at each other, and they all understood.

He Yong was showing Xun Zhen the way, and he was telling Xun Zhen in disguise that as long as he had enough military merit, he would find a way to promote Xun Zhen's promotion again. This is the advantage of "loyalty" to Yuan Shao. It is still the old saying: there are people in the court who are easy to be officials. It is foreseeable that with the power of the Yuan family in the DPRK, as long as Xun Zhen earns enough military merit, it will not be difficult to get promoted again.

"What did the lieutenant think?"

Xun Zhen looked at the vast blue sky outside the hall, and did not answer the question directly, but said: "In yù pacifying the thieves and setting the county, there are two things that need to be done first, one is to raise food, and the other is to recruit troops. Borrowing food for me, I think, this thing can be done now."
