Chapter 10 Violence (9.6k Suppose someone in the group scored 700
Money is indeed a good thing!
This was Gongsun Xun's first thought when he saw Xu You in his home.
When the two met, they didn't exchange greetings. They just cupped their hands slightly and sat down opposite each other.
"Yi Gong, go and ask the eighth aunt to get another hundred gold pieces and ten big pearls to seal the box!" Gongsun Xun no longer had any doubts about this man, so he opened his mouth to let him have no more doubts. "I want to talk to Brother Ziyuan.
Let’s talk privately, and after we finish talking, you can come and ask me where to put this box!”
"Wen Qi." Xu You, who was sitting cross-legged next to the heater and the fat cat, couldn't help but twitching his beard and smiled. "You and I, brothers, are just like this. Just ask, and I will tell you everything. So don't worry, today's box will definitely be
You can put it in my car!”
"In this case... the political tide is about to rise, what is Yuan Benchu doing?" After Han Dang led the others to retreat, Gongsun Xun immediately sat cross-legged in front of him, and then made it clear. "Brother Ziyuan, as far as I know,
When I was in Yanmen last year, you encouraged Cao Luan, the prefect of Yongchang, to impose party bans, so that people were beaten to death, and party bans were strengthened again. Why are you doing nothing when there is such a good opportunity now?!"
"It's not that we don't want to move." Xu You sighed immediately. "It's that Yuan Benchu's hands and feet are restrained... You said, the capital is restrained, how can we minions use our strength?"
"Who bound him?" Gongsun Xun chased after him.
"Yuan Benchu's biological father, servant Yuan Feng and Yuan Zhouyang!"
Gongsun Xun's heart immediately moved: "What does Mr. Yuan want to do?"
"Wen Qi, you should ask, what does the Yuan family want?" Xu You corrected softly. "After all, the second brother of the Yuan family, the Taiwei Yuan Wei is recognized as a vegetarian in the corpse position. Nothing can be done, so his brother Yuan meets Yuan Taipu.
He has become the de facto head of the Yuan family today."
"Then what is Yuan's intention?"
"What a 'this time'!" Xu You suddenly laughed.
However, Gongsun Xun was too lazy to fight with his opponent.
By the way, he didn't know that the Yuan family had four generations and three nobles, and their disciples and old officials were all over the world. Yuan Banchao was simply an insult to others. This kind of super-big family casts nets everywhere, places bets everywhere, and has everything. For them, this position is
Things are always temporary.
What he wanted to know was just what Yuan Feng was thinking at this time.
However, Xu Ziyuan didn't know if he felt that the two hundred gold pieces and twenty large pearls were too valuable, and he would be embarrassed if he didn't bring something with him, so he started chattering there.
"...So, it is not that the political situation cannot be changed, but it must be changed under their control as much as possible. To put it bluntly, their family has a big business, many ideas, and many concerns, so they must come up with a sound policy."
"Not to mention anything else, those people at the Yushitai are clamoring to punish the eunuch. Will Yuan She, the regular servant, punish him? This is a brother that Yuan Taipu personally recognized, and his name is still hanging in his hometown in Runan! For this matter, Runan
Yuan Hong, the eldest son of the eldest son who guards the ancestral hall over there, has almost cut off all contact with Luoyang... What do you think, how should the Yuan family deal with such connections with important people inside and outside?"
"Furthermore, if the execution of the eunuch is really possible, then we can't let you stupid young men take away this special honor, right?"
"Even further, if the execution of eunuchs is successful and Cao Jie and Wang Fu are dead, what will the court's future situation be like? Has the Yuan family made arrangements?"
"Does that mean that everything will follow their Yuan family?" Gongsun Xun finally couldn't bear it anymore. "Others are not allowed to do anything?"
"It all depends on your ability." Xu You couldn't help but sigh. "If you really have the ability to succeed, they will naturally change their stance and take the initiative without any hesitation. But as far as this moment is concerned, no matter what,
The Yuan family seems to want to help Cao Jie, Wang Fu, Yuan She and other eunuchs stabilize the situation."
"Why exactly?"
"Who knows? Perhaps before the October solar eclipse, Yuan Taipu had already had a tacit understanding with Cao Jie and others and were ready to advance and retreat on some matters together; or perhaps he felt that this political trend was too fierce and exceeded the
There are limits, so we temporarily decided to help a group of Cao Jie to ease the situation, which is unknown."
Gongsun Xun's heart couldn't help but move.
You know, judging from the situation, the so-called 'political tide is fierce, stabilize the situation' is undoubtedly more likely. However, the other party's words suddenly reminded Gongsun Xun of the situation when he just came to Luozhong... At that time,
Not long after the solar eclipse appeared, and there was no sign of political tide, he encountered Cao Jie, Yuan Feng, Yang Ci and others gathered together at the Chancellery.
Although this scene at that time could be said to be about discussing some important affairs of the government, it also irrefutably proved that it was not impossible for the princes to sit together with the eunuchs.
However, what is the thing or object that can allow these people to put aside their various interest entanglements and temporarily unite together? It must be known that, not to mention the turmoil between the princes and the eunuchs, the mentality between the Yuan and Yang families is also the same.
delicate.
"Brother Ziyuan, let me ask you something again." At this thought, Gongsun Xun couldn't help but sigh.
"Speaking."
"If the Emperor and the Yuan family fight at this time, who will win and who will lose?"
Xu You was silent.
After waiting for a while, Gongsun Xun saw that the other party still didn't speak, so he couldn't help but pinch the tail of the fat cat next to him, causing the latter to scream in surprise, then jump up and run away.
Xu You couldn't help but smile bitterly: "If you don't want to answer, what can't be said in the secret room? It's not that I can't answer, after all, the answer is obvious. It's just that this question involves too much, and I can't explain it clearly for a while... I can only
Speaking of which, just looking at the Emperor and the Yuan family, if the Emperor is desperate, then who is the Yuan family?"
"Why do you say that?" Gongsun Xun couldn't help but frowned. "The Yuan family has a deep foundation and is famous all over the world. If they can collude with Cao Jie and control the imperial army, then..."
"The general trend of the world depends on the people's hearts." Xu You immediately sneered. "When the emperor has just come of age, although there is a matter of expanding the party's supervision, there is also a matter of building stone scriptures, respecting the virtuous and respecting teachers. Even for counties outside Henan, in their eyes
The emperor is probably still a child who has been overshadowed by the eunuchs... In short, no matter what the Yuan family does, the hearts of the world are still in Beigong!"
Gongsun Xun nodded slightly.
"Besides, if we really open up a confrontation with the emperor, the Yuan family, who comes from a royal family, will probably lose their hearts." Xu You continued to laugh. "In the tradition of this dynasty, no one can infringe on the monarch's power and take charge of the government.
They are just eunuchs and relatives, so where is the role of the public family? If they want to do something, they must rely on the orders of these two to achieve anything... When the eunuchs are in power, they perfunctoryly deal with the eunuchs, but when the relatives are in power,
Following the relatives, the best situation is just to isolate the two, but it is just an illusion!"
At this point, Xu You couldn't help but leaned forward and slapped the opponent's thigh heavily: "Wen Qi, you have to understand that the reason why these noble families are noble families is that they do not lose their dignity at any time.
Without losing any sense of integrity or independence, they can stabilize the court at critical moments. Otherwise, what use would they have? Once a scholar leader becomes a prince, he will be different from a scholar."
Gongsun Xun nodded slightly again, and then suddenly stared at Xu You who was very close at hand and laughed out loud.
"What does Wen Qi mean by this?" Xu You couldn't help but be startled.
"Without him, I just feel sorry for Ziyuan's transparency, Fengji's intelligence, and Xin Ping's calmness..." Gongsun Xun shook his head and smiled. "So many of you talented people have joined Yuan Benchu, and they are meant to inherit
The party member's ambition is to kill eunuchs and clarify the court, but he doesn't want to be handcuffed by his biological father, who is a role model in the world. Naturally, the Yuan family can be versatile, but as the leader of the party, Yuan Benchu's future depends on everything.
The words "kill eunuchs" are also pitiful!"
Xu You also smiled with relief when he heard this: "To be honest with Wen Qi, Yuan Benchu has often been feeling this way recently... Otherwise, how could I have come to you so easily?"
Gongsun Xun was suddenly startled: "I didn't expect that Yuan Benchu, a model in the world, actually harbors resentment towards his own father?"
"You were born by a little maid, and then you were adopted into another family, and then you were not given a future... and it was your Gongsun Wenqi who was born, do you complain?"
Gongsun Xun was silent... Although he didn't know when Yuan Feng died, but thinking about his death, it should be the beginning of Yuan Benchu and Yuan Gongdao's unscrupulous behavior? Yuan Wei's corpse was just like a wood carving.
I'm afraid the identity of an uncle cannot restrain these two people, right?
"Does Wen Qi have anything else to ask?" Seeing that the other party didn't speak, Xu You couldn't help urging seriously. "This is a rare opportunity."
Gongsun Xun thought seriously for a moment, but finally got up directly: "It's not very late yet, I'll send Ziyuan back!"
"The hundred gold and pearls..." Xu You was not polite.
"Of course I will be with you." Gongsun Xun said indifferently.
Xu Ziyuan was very satisfied.
The two of them stepped outside and when they came to the door, the outside was already covered in silver.
"The scenery of the North..." Gongsun Xun sighed, but remained silent.
"Wenqi, Wenqi." Seeing a servant carrying a small wooden box to his car, Xu You couldn't help but stepped forward and took Gongsun Xun's hand. "It's rare that Wenqi is so generous, but I
But he had already taken care of Yuan Benchu..."
Gongsun Xun was too lazy to pay attention to him.
"But let's talk about business." Xu You grabbed Gongsun Xun's hand and said, "I spoke so thoroughly today, why don't you see Wen Qi feeling frustrated?"
"Why should I be depressed?" Gongsun Xun immediately asked with a look of dismay.
"Cao Jie, Wang Fu has been leading the government for many years, and the plan to punish eunuchs is to take advantage of the political tide to pull out teeth." Xu You said disapprovingly. "Now there are Yuan family members who have an ambiguous attitude and are secretly talking about what is on the outside. I'm afraid it will be difficult this time.
Even harder..."
"So what?" Gongsun Xun said disapprovingly. "If one day I can lift the head of one of these two people and walk down Tongtuo Street, it will be worth all the trouble!"
"That's the truth." Xu You nodded repeatedly. "Not to mention the heads of these two people, they are the heads of Yuan She and other random servants. If you can carry them around Luoyang, there will be no one else in the world."
If people dare to regard you as just a warrior in the border county, the last shackles on your body, Gongsun Xun, will be gone... In the future, it is unknown whether the Gongsun family will rise up and become the top family in the world because of you."
After saying this, this "ferocious" man from Nanyang, who was very thorough and intelligent, turned around and got into the car, hugged the box of goods tightly, and hurriedly sent his driver home.
Gongsun Xun stood in front of the door with his hands folded, watching the other party walk away in the snow, then turned around and went home.
After a while, Zhao Yun came back from He Jin's house and only said that everything had been clearly explained; then a family member came back from Lu Zhi and said that Teacher Lu had received a gift but would not come here to celebrate the New Year and had sent back the maid.
, and bluntly asked Gongsun Xun to "keep to himself"!
In this regard, Gongsun Xun, who had thoroughly understood the situation, did not take it seriously.
Not to mention the heavy snowfall overnight.
However, the so-called "the firewood in the creek is soft and the felt is warm, and the raccoon slave and I will not go out" is just a self-comfort for the poor scholar who has lost his official position. In fact, for a central court official like Gongsun Xun,
What comes next is the most troublesome and laborious time of the year... because as the first day of the first lunar month approaches and the snow melts, the annual Great Court Meeting will soon be held in the Nangong Jiade Hall!
In order for this day to come, the imperial court needed to quickly clean up the accumulation of things in various departments, entertain and accommodate princes and officials from all the counties in the world, and even need to step up the construction of the collapsed Nangong City Gate.
Not even the emperor can be lazy about this day's activity!
In fact, since it was still dark, the royal family, princes, generals, officials, and doctors in Beijing, two thousand stones who happened to be performing their duties in Beijing, plus the senior accounting officials, salt and iron officials who came from various counties, and
The supervisory officials who rushed back, etc... In short, thousands of officials had already begun to line up in front of the South Palace in the severe cold, preparing to participate in this great court meeting.
Naturally, there are all kinds of complicated and necessary etiquette.
Da Honglu and Taichang, one was responsible for guiding and the other was responsible for picketing, playing music, welcoming the emperor, singing, saluting, presenting gifts, dancing, and dancing... The series of etiquette only made Gongsun Xun, who was at the outermost position, dizzy.
My brain is swollen, but I have to be careful.
After all the hard work, it was already dawn, and the officials with more than 600 stone in the capital were finally able to enter the vast Jiade Hall to kneel down and attend, and this time also meant that serious discussions would begin.
Of course, Gongsun Xun's position was too low, and he could only barely see and hear some activities in the center of the hall. The emperor who was higher up was still in the fog, and occasionally heard a few voices, but it looked like he couldn't even see it...
In fact, what he didn't know was that unless he was in the first three rows, he would not be able to see the emperor's face at all.
The first person to come out was Situ Yangci. He was to receive reports from the superior planners of each county according to batches.
Of course, the real report materials are all in the Shangshutai and Sangong Mansion. The materials are just pulled up here for a show. What is said is usually in a casual manner. Basically, I just ask and answer the questions and then go straight.
Hurry up and replace the next group of people...
However, even in such an official article, there was an inevitable embarrassing scene - seven counties in Jiaozhou fell to four counties, and the planners in these four counties never imagined that the situation that was fine when they set out would turn into
As a result, we can only bow our heads directly in the main hall to tell the truth.
So, in theory, Situ Yangci, who was in charge of the "civil affairs", directly excused himself from the crown and pleaded guilty, but his superiors quickly comforted him and asked him to crown him again... Are you kidding me? It's normal to exempt the three princes, but it can't be done in front of the whole court at the court.
Isn’t it fair to everyone in the world? That’s simply forcing people to commit suicide!
Next, the new Sikong Chen Dan came out. This position was transformed from the imperial censor of the former Han Dynasty. In other words, it should be the head of the supervisory system in theory... And when he came out, he naturally had to accept the governor of each state, or in other words
Report from the governor's envoy.
Of course, when it's Jiaozhou's turn, this will be quite embarrassing.
Immediately afterwards, Taiwei Meng Yu was not exempt from the common deeds, and was even more unlucky... Because in addition to the fall of Jiaozhou, the Northern Xinjiang was defeated in the fortress. Tens of thousands of people died there, and three two-thousand-stone generals were directly demoted to commoners. The annual
In summary, there is no way around it.
In fact, after this wave of scene work was completed, the thousands of officials in the entire court looked a little uneasy.
Then, Jiu Qing came to play.
The leader, Taichang Liu Yi, had no choice but to tell the story of the transformation of the female chicken into a male at the Chancellor's desk and the innocent collapse of the Nangong Gate.
At this time, the young emperor spoke again, only saying that this matter was of great importance, and he should let Cao Jie, Zhong Chang Shi and Wang Fu command all the officials to discuss the matter. And all the three princes, nine ministers, doctors, and ministers,
The two thousand stones in the capital, as well as the governor, Yilang, and censor, can all come forward and present their opinions according to the courtesy.
The officials almost didn't believe their ears... That's right, Cao Jie and Wang Fu were actually asked to preside over this kind of thing! This is simply letting the thieves judge themselves, right?
Even Gongsun Xun looked incredulous when he heard this... However, this is the most distinctive eunuch politics of the Han Dynasty! You think everything is ready, but the eunuchs can always directly reverse the situation from the core!
After hearing the emperor's imperial order, Cao Jie and Wang Fu immediately walked down the steps, and then glanced at the officials from left to right. After seeing the officials in the front row, most of them bowed their heads and remained silent. Even the ones in front of them
If the high-ranking officials did not dare to step forward, then the low-ranking officials who could only 'see' the emperor once a year would not dare to speak beyond their ranks.
For a time, the court of thousands of people fell silent due to the fierce reputation of these two people!
"pretty!"
I don't know if it was because of his brain twitching, but Gongsun Xun, who was sitting in the corner, couldn't help but secretly praise him after seeing this situation.
Of course, he has a reason... because if Yuan Feng, Cao Jie, and Wang Fu join forces, then these two eunuchs may really be able to block this political tide. In this case, it is better to let them
Showing his majesty nakedly in front of the emperor and the officials, let's see how the officials continue to have an undercurrent, and let's see how the emperor views these two 'old eunuchs'.
However, before a certain villain was secretly happy for the eunuch's majesty, someone suddenly stood up over there without fear... It was Situ Yangci.
Of course, this man is truly fearless, as he is the emperor's mentor to the three princes! Unless there is a serious coup, the most that Cao Jie and Wang Fu can do is to oust this man from the post of three princes.
By the way, Yang Ci started talking about "Spring and Autumn", which made people dizzy after listening to a bunch of allusions. However, he came to a conclusion through these blunt words, that is, these celestial phenomena, disasters and anomalies are standard bad things. If the court and the emperor cannot
If you react appropriately, you will cause big trouble!
In fact, the fall of Jiaozhou was itself the result of insufficient attention paid to solar eclipses and earthquakes.
At this point, Cao Jie immediately tied up his hands and asked on behalf of the emperor: "In this case, the emperor has something to ask Situ, what should be the answer to this matter?"
"It's easy." Yang Ci answered Cao Jie without hesitation, holding the wat tablet in his hand. "Such incidents happened all because of eunuchs who were good at passing on state affairs. "Book of Zhou" said: 'When the emperor sees something strange, he will repair it'
Virtue, the princes will cultivate their politics when they see something strange, the ministers and officials will cultivate their duties when they see something strange, and the common people will cultivate their moral character when they see something strange.' Therefore, as long as your majesty can keep away these eunuchs and sycophant ministers, and then quickly recruit some truly noble and noble people,
Then God will naturally show its majesty, and these disasters will naturally be eliminated!"
After the word castration came out, Wang Fu's face turned red immediately, and he kept glaring angrily, but Cao Jie kept a calm look on his face. He waited until the other party finished speaking, and then calmly asked:
"Then I dare to ask Situ, who is the most cunning minister in the court?"
"Report to Your Majesty," Yang Ci continued to raise the wat in his hand and said. "This is a great court meeting, and all the ministers are here. If we reprimand them face to face, they will undoubtedly attack each other, making it difficult for the court meeting to continue... I am bold.
, please allow your Majesty to allow those in the court who wish to speak about this matter to submit a letter directly after they return, so that your Majesty can read it!"
Cao Jie looked back at the throne, then nodded to Yang Ci without hesitation and said, "Good!"
Yang Ci immediately sat back with satisfaction.
At this time, the crowd in the palace was so excited that many people were whispering to each other.
"Quiet!" Cao Jie raised his voice slightly and once again glanced at the officials in various parts of the hall.
It must be said that his observation was more effective than anything else, and the effect was immediate, and soon the palace returned to its previous quiet state.
"Situ has made some suggestions, but is there anyone else who wants to talk about this matter?" Cao Jie raised his head and asked, his gaze resting on the three ministers and nine ministers for a long time.
This time there was still silence... After all, Yang Ci reversed the situation for everyone by using the word "eunuch" in person, and gained the opportunity to not have to face these two eunuchs directly. Who would bother to follow these two eunuchs?
How about direct criticism?
But not everyone is an Imperial Master!
However, at this moment, another minister who was not afraid of death got up and came to the hall. Everyone looked closely and saw that it was the servant Yuan Feng, so they all cheered up.
Yuan Feng, like Yang Ci, speaks of classics. Of course, the Yuan family's family study is the "Book of Changes", which is different from the Yang family's "Spring and Autumn".
However, in any case, Yuan Feng insisted that so many incidents were caused by disasters induced by heaven and man. If they could not be dealt with in time, something big would happen.
"Your Majesty." Cao Jie still stood with his hands tied. "Since the scriptures are clear that such a disaster is indeed a warning from heaven, your Majesty, I would like to ask you, how to resolve it?"
"First of all, welcoming the five suburbs of Qi, clearing temples to offer sacrifices, and providing care for the elderly. These sacrificial activities are all major events that His Majesty should do. However, His Majesty has not done anything similar for a long time since he ascended the throne." Yuan Feng replied with a serious face.
He said, "Therefore, Your Majesty should go to the city in person to perform sacrifices and perform the so-called act of welcoming the five suburbs of Qi."
"Oh!" Cao Jie suddenly realized. "It turns out that there is a lack of sacrificial activities. Your Majesty has heard about it. May I ask your servant if there is anything else to do?"
"Also, it is natural that what Situ said before was to eliminate the villains and recruit the virtuous ones." As soon as Yuan Feng said this, the officials behind him became more and more excited. Even Gongsun Xun was a little shocked... Could it be that he had misunderstood Yuan Feng?
Already?
"Then I dare to ask the servant, it's okay to recruit sages, but what do the so-called villains refer to?" Wang Fu couldn't help but asked, looking past Cao Jie's frown. "Could it be that the servant also wants to say that the villain is there?
The court, but in order to avoid disputes, the officials should be allowed to step back and submit the letter directly to the emperor?"
"No need!" Yuan Feng also held up the wat board and answered with his head raised. "Although the villain is in the court, I think there is nothing to avoid, so there is no harm in speaking out."
Wang Fu looked at Yuan Feng and asked seriously: "Then your Majesty will ask the servant again, who is the villain in the court?"
"Of course they are the filial sons of Xuanling who were rewarded last autumn!" Mrs. Yuan said in a loud and upright manner.
Like Wang Fu who presided over the questioning, all the officials did not react for a moment... What is this Xuanling filial son?
Of course, they quickly remembered that there seemed to be such an incident in Luozhong last autumn. According to the leader of the scholars, Mr. Yuan, so many and dense celestial phenomena and disasters were actually caused by this group of things.
from?
Unknown to others, Gongsun Xun couldn't help laughing.
"Your Majesty!" Servant Yuan Feng said sincerely, holding the wat tablet. "I heard that Emperor Xiaowen (Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty) issued a special edict requiring the world to mourn the emperor for thirty-six days. Even the emperor who succeeded to the throne would
The biological sons, ministers and ministers who have been uprooted by their own hands, no matter how great the favor is, must be handled according to this system, and they dare not go beyond it. Now those hypocritical villains have neither blood nor flesh and blood relationship with the late emperor, nor have they any personal relationships.
There is no such thing as eating the emperor's salary, so where did the 'filial piety' of these people come from? How could they wait until the late emperor passed away for several years before crying filial piety?"
Cao Jie and Wang Fu nodded their heads one after another. Except for Yang Ci, who stared at Yuan Feng's back, most of them remained silent. Among the officials, many disciples of the Yuan family nodded frequently.
"I'll tell you the truth, Your Majesty." Yuan Feng continued. "Since the celestial phenomenon occurred that day, I have always suspected that these filial sons of Xuanling were responsible for the trouble, so I went to investigate specifically. Your Majesty, guess what?"
"What's going on?" Wang Fu asked impatiently.
"One of them is actually a fugitive!" Yuan Feng lamented. "This man broke into a house in Dongjun and raped his wife. Later, he used the name of filial piety to escape at night, and finally came to Luoyang. Now he went to Xuanling to cry.
Filial piety. Commend such people as filial sons of the late emperor, and also grant them the title of Langguan! How can there be no celestial phenomena and disasters? I beg your Majesty to remove all these people from their posts, and then deal with them according to the law. They should be expelled!"
"So that's it!" Cao Jie couldn't help asking seriously. "Then if this is the case, can the disaster be completely eliminated?"
"If this is the case, how can we conquer the world?" Gongsun Xun clearly heard someone beside him making sarcastic remarks.
"No." Yuan Feng seemed to have heard these words and shook his head repeatedly. "This is not enough to bring peace to the world. The third major thing needs to be done!"
"Please give me some advice from your servant."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty Yuan Feng, please change your title!" Yuan Feng bowed and said frankly. "In this way, this disaster will naturally be resolved!"
Gongsun Xun was stunned, but he couldn't help but secretly admire him... What a change of name! What a leader of the Yuan family!
Back in the palace, after these words were spoken, the emperor was immediately overjoyed. He passed Cao Jie and Wang Fu directly and asked on the throne whether this approach could completely resolve the disaster.
Yuan Feng confirmed this without hesitation.
At this time, everyone from the emperor to the two great eunuchs were smiling happily, while the courtiers below had complicated expressions. However, no matter what, no one came forward to discuss the matter... Otherwise, wouldn't it mean that the political eunuchs would be killed?
Offend with the scholar leaders!
"In that case." As Cao Jie walked back up the steps, he suddenly mentioned something as if he had accidentally mentioned it. "Your Majesty, there should be no need for officials to submit private letters to this matter, right?"
The emperor immediately agreed.
The dynasty will continue, but everyone has mixed feelings... The eunuch's cruelty is really speechless.
And finally, as the sun set in the west and the sky was getting dark, the emperor went ahead, followed by Cao Jie, while Wang Fu stood on his majesty, looking around with a sneer, and then walked away.
Then, the three princes and nine ministers were speechless and walked away quickly or slowly, followed by two thousand stones, and then hundreds of officials fought for it... In other words, this great court meeting that many people were looking forward to finally came to a "victorious conclusion"
.
Gongsun Xun followed the flow of people to the outside of the palace, but did not go directly to Tongtuo Street. Instead, he looked around and asked, preparing to talk to Tian Feng.
However, when Gongsun Xun was still looking around behind him, he did not know that Tian Feng was no longer in the palace at this time. In fact, Tian Yuanhao ignored the etiquette and rushed directly outside the palace, blocking the three gongs and nine ministers.
way out.
"Sikong." Tian Feng held up the wat board and bowed slightly towards his immediate boss, Chen Dan.
"Yuan Hao!" Not only Chen Dan, but most of the three ministers and nine ministers also recognized Tian Feng, because this person was a talented person from Jizhou. As a talent that only comes out of one of the top states in the Han Dynasty every year, how could they not be impressed?
"If something happens, why don't you go to Yushitai or Sikong Mansion to talk?" Chen Dan pointed to the dense official flow around him and couldn't help but smile.
The Sikong Mansion here is not Chen Dan's mansion, but Sikong's official office located on Tongtuo Street.
"No need." Tian Feng's face remained as usual, showing no emotion or anger. He just bowed again, took off his seal ribbon at sunset, and handed it over directly along with the wat board. "Feng is here to resign and return home.
I also ask Sikong En for permission."
Yuan Feng next to him was the first to change his expression, but soon returned to normal, but Chen Dan became more and more anxious... He did not want to bear the reputation of forcing away famous people and talents in a state not long after taking office.
"Sikong doesn't need to worry about it." Tian Feng sighed slightly, and then said loudly outside the Jiade Hall in front of the hundreds of officials gathered together. "The eunuchs are in power. Feng has more than enough heart but lacks strength. He is forced to stay in the imperial palace.
Shitai, I'm afraid my heart won't be at peace. In that case, it's better to go back home and study hard."
Chen Dan breathed a sigh of relief, then sighed again, and then glanced at the expressionless Yuan Feng almost instinctively, and then turned around and took the Tian Feng tablet and seal ribbon: "In that case, I also
I have nothing to say...just go on your own!"
Tian Feng bowed again, then bowed to his lord Yuan Wei, and then stepped aside. The three princes and nine ministers also bowed their heads and left quickly.
"Why is Yuan Hao doing this?!" After hearing the news from behind, Gongsun Xun was like a lightning strike. He grabbed the other party without hesitation outside the palace. "Listen to me, there is still something that can be done about this matter.
I already have a plan in mind! Today is just a temporary setback. Don’t you know the story of Mr. Qiao’s perseverance? Why do you need to take such a drastic step?!"
Sangong and Jiuqing had already left, but Dr. Guanglu Qiao Xuan was really old. At this moment, he slowly walked by. Hearing these four words, he couldn't help but be startled, but then he shook his head and walked away.
"This matter has nothing to do with perseverance." Tian Feng couldn't help but sigh. "Don't Wen Qi know? I, the Shi Yushi, was recruited and recommended by Duke Ci Yang (Yuan Wei) when he was a Taiwei. In other words, I am the Yuan family
Old official. Now Zhou Yanggong (Yuan Feng) seems to be interacting with Cao Jie, Wang Fu and other eunuchs in charge of politics. If I stay here and hold this position, and then think about punishing the eunuchs, won't I let the world know?
joke?"
Gongsun Xun shook his head repeatedly: "Then let's not talk about being an official. Please also ask Yuan Hao to stay here and advise me. I really need to rely on your wisdom..."
"No need." Tian Feng simply refused Gongsun Xun's invitation at the foot of the stone steps outside the palace where the crowds were gradually sparse. "I have made up my mind...Danggui!"
"Yuan Hao!" Gongsun Xun became even more anxious and could only hold on to him. "You must have a word with me, right?"
"Forget it!" Tian Feng couldn't help but sigh. "I didn't want to tell Wen Qi... Do you know where I am from?"
"Julu!" Gongsun Xun replied immediately. "I knew this."
"Then do you know who is the powerful official who caused the greatest harm to Julu?"
Gongsun Xun immediately stopped and couldn't help but spread his hands, but he still whispered: "Zhao Zhong!"
"It's your wife and uncle Zhao Changshi!"
Gongsun Xun opened his mouth to speak, but no word could come out.
"I dare to ask whether Wen Qi and Zhao Zhong are more innocent than Yuan and Cao Jie and Wang Fu?" Tian Feng couldn't help but asked seriously. "Even if you kill King Cao, will you still kill Zhao? I don't mind it either.
You are disgusted... I told you that day on Tongtuo Street that 'the time has come to punish the eunuchs', because I saw you drawing a sword against Duan Xi and guessing that there was internal strife between the old and new eunuchs, and I didn't have the slightest bit of sincere admiration."
Gongsun Xun became more and more speechless.
It was already dusk, and Tian Feng probably felt that he had gone too far, so he slightly handed over his hands and prepared to leave.
At this time, Gongsun Xun really couldn't hold it back and actually grabbed the other party's sleeve again: "If we meet again in the future, I wonder if Yuan Hao can change his appearance to meet me?"
Tian Feng was startled, and then couldn't help but turn around and smile bitterly: "I thought Wen Qi was going to ask me when I was going to leave, and then let your Bai Mayi intercept and kill me along the way... Aren't you resentful that I stab you so bluntly?"
"How can you be angry?" Gongsun Xun shook his head repeatedly. "If he were a mediocre person, teasing me and mocking me like this, I would really have people intercept and kill him secretly, but a person like Yuan Hao has outstanding intelligence and noble character.
, just like a piece of beautiful jade, how can I hate this piece of beautiful jade because I can’t afford it? I can only hate the person who sells it!”
"Wen Qi's words make me look petty." Tian Feng bowed seriously. "If we meet again by chance, I, Tian Yuanhao, will definitely regard you as an old friend. By then, I hope you and I can look after each other calmly. Farewell!"
Gongsun Xun reluctantly let go of his hand and bowed seriously.
After the ceremony, the two of them separated directly outside the Jiade Hall... one went to the east gate, the other to the south gate.
To be honest, today's meeting was nothing to Gongsun Xun, who had already prepared for it, because he was really prepared and had a new plan, and he really wanted to learn from Qiao Xuan and persevere... However, losing
Although Tian Feng was killed, he was really disappointed.
After leaving Nangong, Gongsun Xun was in an even worse mood. In addition, it was already dark, so he couldn't help but angrily cursed in the dark: "Yuan Zhouyang's vicious and lewd people will definitely suffer backlash in the future!"
"When there is nothing you can do, hiding in the dark and calling someone's dignified servant a vicious person, isn't it also an act of perseverance?"
At this moment, an old voice suddenly came from behind, which shocked Gongsun Xun so much that his scalp went numb, and he even directly touched his sword.
However, almost a moment later, he quickly put down his hand, and then bowed obediently: "I didn't expect Mr. Qiao to be here!"
——————I am grateful to the editor for giving the recommended dividing line——————
"In the first year of Guanghe of the Later Han Dynasty, during Cao Jie, Wang Fu was in power for a long time, and the world was in turmoil. However, he and the Yuan family were mutually exclusive, so it was difficult to get rid of them suddenly. During the dynasty on the first day of the lunar month, hundreds of officials used the celestial phenomena to control the disasters.
When the matter was accomplished, Yuan Feng became the servant of the Taizu. He stood up and talked about changing the Yuan Dynasty, thus easing King Cao's difficulties. Most of the officials were Yuan's old officials and old friends, and they did not dare to speak again. Late in the evening, Taizu left the Nangong and went outside Tongtuo Street.
He sighed privately and said: "Yuan Zhouyang is a vicious and lewd person, and the world will be in chaos. He must be the leader of the chaos. If you want to help the world and plead for the people, if you don't kill this man first, chaos will happen now." Guanglu Dafu Qiao Xuanqiao
