Three Kingdoms: God-level selection

"Well, I'm glad you understand."

Zhang Rang nodded. Since Su Yan could admit it so tactfully, he didn't need to waste too much time talking.

He added:"From now on, you will be my undercover agent there. If there is any movement over there by He Jin, you must tell me the first time. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, Changshi Zhang, I will tell you as soon as I have any news."

"Very good, it's getting late, you go ahead, I should also go to the palace to see the emperor."

Zhang Rang waved his hand, and Su Yan said goodbye and left.

He and Dian Wei put on their hats and robes, clasped their fists to Zhang Rang, and then left the Marquis' Mansion.

Zhang Rang looked at the two people leaving, and a sinister smile flashed across his skinny old face

"Haha, do you think you can please both sides by bribing me with some money? It's not that simple. I've kept you in the palace this time. Who doesn't know that you are my man?"

"Su Yan, Su Yan, you still take things too simply."

With a sinister smile, Zhang Rang stood up, changed his clothes, and then left the mansion with Hehuan Powder and a bottle of Qi-nourishing and Blood-replenishing Pills, heading for the palace.............

Su Yan quietly left the Marquis' Mansion with Dian Wei, and then began to walk around Luoyang City, taking care of the black robe on his body.

After confirming that no one was following him, he and Dian Wei returned to the Lu Mansion.

In the courtyard, Guo Jia was sitting on a stone table drinking, when Su Yan and Dian Wei walked in.

"My Lord, judging from your appearance, the matter should be done?"

Guo Jia took a sip of wine, wiped the corner of his mouth and smiled.

"Well, it's almost done. Zhang Rang has been persuaded. This time, we can make trouble for Gongsun Zan and transfer Liu Yu back. This way, my father's matter will be settled."

Su Yan said as he walked over and sat opposite Guo Jia.

He reached out and took his wine pot and took a sip for himself.

"My lord, please drink less. This is all I drink. If I drink it all, how will I get through the night?"

Guo Jia was anxious and waved his hands.

Su Yan smacked his lips and shook his head,"Fengxiao, you drink so much every day, aren't you afraid of getting drunk?"

"Hehe, my lord, don't worry. I have already practiced to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. I still can't get drunk with this amount of alcohol."

Guo Jia smiled, and then took another sip.

Su Yan watched him drink, his face gradually became serious and he said:"The emperor should summon me to the palace tomorrow. I plan to present the Taia Sword to him then. What do you think?"

He got the Taia Sword from Su Ping before, and brought it with him to Luoyang this time.

He asked someone in the city who knew about swords to try it out, and found that it was of outstanding quality and was indeed a real sword.

Now he made up his mind to present the Taia Sword to Emperor Ling of Han.

Guo Jia also knew about this matter. Su Yan had told him about it before, so he was not surprised when he heard it.

"I think it's okay. This sword is famous, and it's really inconvenient for the lord to use it. It's better to give the sword to him to win the emperor's favor."

He nodded in agreement.

Su Yan nodded, and then said:"Two days ago, He Jin invited the teacher to have a secret talk, preparing to discuss the plan to eliminate Zhang Rang and others."

"Oh, let me guess."

Guo Jia narrowed his eyes and smiled:"According to the strategy of the people in the General's Mansion, I guess there are only two ways."

"One is a long-term one, in which the general He Jin issued a secret order to mobilize soldiers from all directions to enter the capital to eliminate the treacherous officials in the name of clearing the emperor's side."

"The other is a short-term one, which is to mobilize troops in the capital, rush into the palace, kill Zhang Rang and others, and end the battle quickly."

""My lord, am I right in guessing?"

Guo Jia looked at Su Yan and asked with a smile.

Clap, clap, clap!

Su Yan clapped his hands and said with a smile:"What Feng Xiao said is absolutely correct. These are the two methods that He Jin and the others discussed."

"Now some of them insist on bringing in foreign aid to clear the court, while the other part thinks that they should directly use the Tiger Guards and Yulin Army and the Eight Lieutenants of the Western Garden Army to rush into the palace and kill the eunuchs."

Su Yan said:"They are hesitant about which strategy to adopt." Guo Jia asked

:"What do you think, my lord?"

Hearing Guo Jia's question, Su Yan said without hesitation:"I think He Jin should choose both sides, on the one hand, summoning foreign aid to Beijing, and on the other hand, leading the army to attack the palace at night"

""Why do you think so?"

Guo Jia asked again.

Su Yan smiled and said,"First, He Jin's control is not enough."

"He was born in a good family. Although he held a high position, he was not taken seriously by Yuan Shao and other noble families. After removing the eunuchs, if he wanted to continue to control the situation, he must have enough troops to deter the situation."

"Now, some of the troops in and around Luoyang City obey his orders, but some belong to Zhang Rang and others, and some belong to aristocratic families and remain neutral."

"He Jin's own military strength plus the aristocratic family's military strength is enough to defeat the eunuchs."

"However, after defeating them, it is unclear whether the nobles will still obey his orders. It is very likely that the relationship between the two sides will break down. When the nobles attack, He Jin will not be able to cope with it, so he needs external help."

"Second, bringing troops into the city would easily cause great unrest and the news would probably leak out."

"After the eunuchs received the news, they would probably hold the emperor or the prince hostage and force He Jin to withdraw his troops."

"Therefore, in order to avoid being hindered by Zhang Rang and others, He Jin and his men had to lead their troops into the palace first, kill the eunuchs, and ensure the safety of the emperor and others."

"Third, He Jin thought too highly of the situation, thinking that if he adopted both methods, he would be the final winner. This was actually extremely stupid."

Su Yan said this with a sneer on his face.

Guo Jia asked curiously,"Why did you say that, lord?"

"He Jin thought he had good control over the troops outside Beijing, and the foreign aid���I will definitely listen to him, but as far as I know, Dong Zhuo, who is entrenched in Liangzhou, has evil intentions and intends to lead his troops into the capital."

Su Yan said slowly

"My Lord, you even know this?"

Guo Jia was a little surprised. He didn't expect Su Yan to be able to guess these things.

Thinking of this, his expression became serious."If this is the case, then once my Lord's guess comes true, the capital is likely to become a place of chaos. We must make plans early."

"That's right."

Su Yan nodded and said,"This is also the reason why I went to Zhang Rang. I didn't ask him to assign me an official position, but I expected that he would definitely advise the Han Emperor to change my official position."

"In order to show that he is more skilled, he will definitely deliberately show He Jin and others that I have a relationship with them. This is also to deliberately split the relationship between the teacher and He Jin and others."

"So, my lord, how do you think the emperor will appoint you?"

Guo Jia then asked

"I don't know about this, but I guess it must be an official position with military power. I can't guess which one it is, but it's exactly what we want. We can use it to have our own power in the capital, and then we will have more say."

Su Yan shook his head and said

"Everything will be revealed tomorrow."

He said with a hint of anticipation.
