Chapter 352 Dramatic changes in Luoyang, the death of General Hussar!
After hearing this, He Jin secretly thought in his mind that what He said was not unreasonable, so he strode out of the palace and said to all the officials: "Jian Shuo planned to kill me. Now that he is defeated and dead, we can kill him all over the house."
Beheaded as punishment, as for other eunuchs,
There is no need to inflict cruelty!"
As soon as these words came out, the officials in the court started talking a lot. Among them, Lu Junyi stepped forward and said bluntly, "If we don't eradicate it now, we will definitely lose our lives in the future."
He Jin's eyes as big as bells glared at Lu Junyi. When he saw that this junior was speaking again, he waved his hands angrily, then left the lobby after saying a few words.
"I've made up my mind, don't talk nonsense!"
As General He Jin left,
All the courtiers in the court hall also left one after another. Among them, Xun Yu, Chen Lin, Lu Junyi, Wang Yun, Lu Zhi and others sighed, shook their heads and followed them out of the court.
The next day, the Empress Dowager ordered He Jin to participate in the affairs of the Secretariat, and the rest of the staff were granted official positions. After Empress Dowager Dong learned of this, she secretly announced that Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, and others from the Ten Standing Orders would enter the palace for discussion. Empress Dowager Dong frowned slightly.
He said softly: "General He Jin's sister, I promoted her at first, but now her child has ascended to the throne of emperor, and the ministers and staff inside and outside the court are all their confidants: the authority is too heavy, I should
What can I do?"
As soon as Empress Dowager Dong said this, Zhang Rang, the ten permanent attendants, and others broke out in sweat on their foreheads.
He hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to show his loyalty!
After taking a few breaths, Zhang Rang realized what Empress Dowager Dong was thinking clearly through her words and expressions, so he knelt down and crawled to Empress Dowager Dong, flatteringly and making suggestions.
"The empress can come to the court and listen to the government behind the curtain; she can make the prince Xie the king; she can confer the title of uncle Dong as a major official and control the military power; and then re-employ ministers, then great things can be accomplished."
Empress Dowager Dong was overjoyed and immediately arranged for Zhang Rang and other eunuchs to handle these matters.
During the morning court session the next day, Empress Dowager Dong listened behind the curtain and ordered the young emperor Liu Bian to issue an imperial edict. She conferred the title of Prince Xie as King of Chenliu, and granted the title of General of Hussars to her uncle Dong Chong. She also served as the ten permanent ministers to Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others.
When the imperial edict was issued to intervene in the government affairs, the ministers were shocked. Wang Yun, Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun, Huangfu Song, Xun Yu, Chun Yuqiong and dozens of other ministers came out and shouted that eunuchs should not be involved in politics, but Dong
The Queen Mother has made up her mind and is determined to do this.
After retreating from the court, Empress Dowager He learned that the Empress Dowager Dong listened behind the curtain and allowed eunuchs to have exclusive power to intervene in politics. She knew that this trip was not allowed.
So they held a banquet in the palace and specially invited Empress Dowager Dong to come to the banquet.
Empress Dowager Dong arrived in person, and the banquet was about to start. After the wine was half drunk, Empress Dowager He stood up, held a cup, and toasted to Empress Dowager Dong respectfully. She leaned down and said implicitly: "You and I are both women. It is not so important to participate in and interfere in the government affairs."
Easy. In the past, Empress Lu held great power, which resulted in the massacre of thousands of members of the Lu family.
Nowadays, we should live deep in the harem. As for the major matters in the court, it can be discussed by the appointed ministers and elders of the court. This is the great fortune of the Han Dynasty. I am willing to listen to you."
Empress Dowager He took the initiative to lower her attitude, hoping that Empress Dowager Dong in front of her would change her mind, follow her advice, and stop listening to politics behind the curtain and interfering in government affairs.
But she didn't expect that after hearing what Empress Dowager He said, Empress Dowager Dong became furious and pointed directly at Empress Dowager He's nose and yelled:
"You poisoned Beauty Wang with poisonous wine because of jealousy. Now that your son Liu Bian has become the emperor, and combined with the power of your brother, General He Jin, who in the court dares to speak nonsense?
But I asked my brother Dong Chong, who is a hussar general, to kill your brother He Jin and chop off his head easily, so you can do it yourself!"
Seeing that Empress Dowager Dong was so ignorant, Empress Dowager He's beautiful eyes ignited with anger, her face turned red, and she pointed at Empress Dowager Dong's nose and cursed angrily:
"I gave you good advice, why do you scold me like this?"
Upon hearing this, Empress Dowager Dong's eyes revealed a look of contempt and ridicule. Her red lips were slightly opened, and she sneered at Empress Dowager He: "You are just a junior Tugu, what knowledge do you have? Are you qualified to point out and talk nonsense?"
The two palaces were at each other's throats and refused to give in. It was not until the Shichang attendants Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others learned the news that they persuaded them to separate and return to the palace!
After the resentful Empress Dowager He returned to the palace, she ordered General He Jin to be summoned to the palace overnight to discuss important matters in secret. After He Jin entered the palace, the Empress Dowager He burst into tears and informed He Jin of what had happened during the day.
When General He Jin learned about the situation, his eyes widened with anger. He took out the sword from his waist and cut off the documents in the palace to vent his dissatisfaction!
In the hearts of He Jin and others, their original identity was their biggest pain point. Now that someone has poked their pain point, they are furious and angry.
The furious General He Jin left the Empress Dowager He's boudoir and secretly summoned Taiwei Yang Biao, Situ Wang Yun, and Sikong Yuan Feng to discuss matters!
During the morning court meeting the next day, General He Jin arranged for the imperial envoys to deliver an imperial edict to Empress Dowager Dong, a former vassal concubine, stating that they could not live in the palace for a long time and should move to Hanoi County, and also required them to leave Luoyang quickly within a time limit.
.
On the one hand, General He Jin sent people to escort Empress Dowager Dong, and on the other hand, he arranged for Lu Junyi, Chunyu Qiong and others to lead five thousand forbidden troops to surround the palace of Hussar General Dong Chong and pursue the seal!
Cavalry General Dong Chong knew that the matter was urgent, and there was no countermeasure at the moment, so he was dead. Instead of being captured alive by Lu Junyi and Chun Yuqiong, who were under the command of General He Jin, it would be better to kill himself under the Nine Springs and follow the late emperor.
Dong Chong committed suicide and died. The entire Dong family cried and howled outside the mansion. After Lu Junyi, Chunyu Qiong and others learned of this, they retreated with their sergeants and returned to the General He Jin to resume their duties!
Cavalry General Dong Chong died, and the Empress Dowager Dong was sent to Hejian County and could no longer listen to the government behind the curtain. Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Duan Gui and others saw that one of the Empress Dowager Dong's branches was useless, so they took away the Yuan Shu that they had originally obtained from Yuan Shu.
All the shops in the family were sold out in exchange for large sums of gold, silver, jewelry and rare items, which were used to make friends with General He Jin's younger brother He Miao and his mother Wuyang Jun. After that, Shi Changshi and others came in and out of Queen Mother He's house sooner or later, and they were as eloquent as
He was good at covering up things with his words, and gradually won the favor of the general's faction, so the ten permanent servants were lucky again.
There was a drastic change in the court. Yuzhou Yuan Shu had information obtained from the Santuhe Intelligence Organization and knew the internal situation in Luoyang. The original history changed. Lu Junyi and Chun Yuqiong suddenly emerged, replacing Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, and assisting General He Jin.
Kill Jian Shuo, recruit his elite soldiers, and expand the imperial army!
