Chapter 251: The world's strongest army
Chapter 251: The world's most powerful army
The scout of the Fujiao Army was outside the palace gate. Logically speaking, he should go to see the Taiwei first or General He Jin. However, he didn't know whether the scout of the Fujiao Army did not understand the rules or intentional. He actually went directly to the palace gate and wanted to meet the emperor directly. This was not only unruly, but simply nonsense!
The emperor did not meet him at any time. Even if he was a foreign envoy, if the country was not strong enough, the envoy would not be qualified to meet the Emperor of Han when he came to Luoyang. The ministers of the Han Dynasty were even more strict, and they would be one level higher than another. Even if the Beijing officials were an official in Luoyang for the rest of their lives, they might have never seen the emperor, let alone the small soldiers who came from other places to report to him!
The Yulin Army guarding the palace gate did not dare to delay after hearing the scout of the Fujiao Army. The vanguard of the Fujiao Army arrived in half a day, but they did not dare to delay. If they were to delay for a while and before they could send the news into the palace, the Fujiao Army would arrive, then the person guarding the palace gate would have to be unlucky.
The Yulin Army Captain in charge of the palace gate placed the scout Fujiao. He immediately ran into the palace in person. While running, he shouted: "The Fujiao Army is here, the Fujiao Army is here!"
There were dozens of ministers sitting in the side hall of the palace, including He Jin. Almost all the important officials were there. The emperor was sick and the Yellow Turban Army was about to attack Luoyang again. How could they not be anxious? They were waiting in the side hall and discussing what to do next. They all thought that Li Qin's Fujiao Army could not come very quickly, and even might not come. Li Qin occupied Chang'an. They all knew that Zhang Wen had run to Luoyang to take refuge. Don't they know what Chang'an would end? So they all thought that Li Qin would most likely not come to Luoyang in order to consolidate his rule in Chang'an. Anyway, if he didn't come, the current court could not send anyone to arrest him.
Among the crowd, He Jin sat in the middle and said, "You guys, will Li Qin come with the Fujiao Army?"
Zhang Wenran said, "The general asked this well. Will Li Qin bring the army? I said he will definitely come."
The ministers looked at Zhang Wen together, and a minister said, "It may not be true that this man is very ambitious. Since he occupied Sizhou, he must consolidate his territory. If the matter is not completed, how could he leave Sizhou? What if he left and asked someone to occupy Sizhou? "
He Jin clicked and said, "I think that's the case!"
Zhang Wen shook his head gently and said, "I said he would definitely come, but he didn't say he would definitely come soon. I guess he would lead his troops to the east after the Yellow Turban Army attacked Luoyang, and he would come until the food in the capital is insufficient and everyone is anxious. Only then will the people be grateful to him and his reputation will be further improved!"
The ministers nodded one after another and said, "It's reasonable, this is a timely help. Although it's fake benevolence and righteousness, the people are ignorant and cannot understand his intentions!"
He Jin sighed and said, "It seems that this will happen. He has let down His Majesty's trust in him. Although he is my relative, if he is a traitor, I will also kill this guy with his hands!"
This is quite tough, but no one takes it seriously. Just like a joke, He Jin wants to kill Li Qin, and he thinks very beautifully!
The ministers were talking when they suddenly heard a *** outside shouting, saying that the Fujiao Army was here!
He Jin jumped up suddenly and shouted in surprise: "What, what is the person outside shouting? I heard it right?"
The ministers all stood up, Zhang Wen was the most anxious. He had just analyzed it and received the approval of his colleagues. But not long after he finished speaking, Fujiaojun came outside. This was a slap in the face in public. He was too unsightly!
Zhang Wen ran out of the side hall and shouted at the Yulin Army Captain: "Come here, what are you calling? What are the Fujiao Army coming? How could Fujiao Army come?"
The Yulin Army Captain quickly turned and followed, shouting: "When General Zhang said, the vanguard of Fujiao Army will arrive in half a day. Now, a person who reports the news is here to rest at the palace gate. Finally, he will report the news and report the good news to the emperor!"
Zhang Wen was stunned. The Fujiao Army was actually here. Li Qin would leave Chang'an and come to Luoyang with his troops. Wouldn't he know that going to war with the Yellow Turban Army would greatly damage his strength?
Zhang Wen waved his hand and asked the Yulin Army Captain to continue reporting the message. He slowly turned around and looked at He Jin and the ministers. He Jin and the ministers were also a little confused. When everyone thought that Li Qin could not come, Li Qin came!
Everyone was stunned for a while, and suddenly started to scream together. He Jin took the lead and ran to the palace gate and shouted, "Where is the one who sent the letter, I have something to ask him!"
The ministers ran over with him!
The Emperor's Bedroom.
Liu Hong was lying in the inner hall, hissing sounds heavy, hissing, and his chest was like a broken bellows. Without the need for the imperial physicians to say it clearly, everyone in the palace knew that the emperor's life was limited!
Zhang Rang and a group of eunuchs were sitting in the outer hall. Zhang Rang's face was expressionless, but his eyes were constantly turning, while other eunuchs were the same. They were all thinking and no one spoke.
The bedroom was quiet, and there was no other sound except for the emperor's coughing from time to time.
After Liu Hong coughed heavily, the palace maids in the inner palace were busy serving him. Suddenly, a palace maid accidentally broke a bowl and made a loud bang!
With the loud noise, the ten regular attendants in the outer hall raised their heads, and the eunuchs looked at Zhang Rang together. Zhang Rang was their leader. At this time, he should be the first to speak!
Zhang Rang sighed softly and said, "Everyone is my own. I won't say anything about the scene, just say the most real ones."
The eunuchs nodded at the same time. They were all very compatible. They had been together in the palace for so long, and they knew everything they had to say without saying anything.
Zhang Rang said: "Big or small ones?"
The older one is the crown prince Liu Bian, and the younger one is the younger one is the prince Liu Xie. Emperor Liu Hong was hollowed out by wine and suffered a sudden disaster. It seems that he could not survive. So the eunuchs had to discuss which prince to be the new king. Only by arguing the right emperor can they continue to take control of the power!
As soon as he finished speaking, the eunuch said in unison: "If you are a small one, you will die without a place to bury me!"
The eldest crown prince Liu Bian is the son of Empress He and He Jin's nephew. If he is ranked, Liu Bian can still be regarded as Li Qin's nephew! But the Ten Constellations have always been against He Jin, and they are life-and-death enemies. If Liu Bian is pushed to the throne, then the Ten Constellations will become Ten Constellations, and there is no one who can survive. For the Ten Constellations, they have no choice, and they can only choose Liu Xie as the emperor.
In real history, the Ten Constant Assistant had never done He Jin in this matter. He Jin was too powerful and almost all the civil and military officials of the court supported him. Moreover, Liu Hong died and the new king was the crown prince. It was also nominally orthodox and natural matter, so the Ten Constant Assistant had no way to do He Jin.
But the situation is different now. He Jin's power has not been cultivated. The ministers in the capital did not listen to He Jin. He Jin had just become a general for a few days and had not had much appeal. The princes from all over the country did not move closer to He Jin. The biggest prince Li Qin was the member of the Ten Constellation Secretaries. At least the Ten Constellation Secrets thought so, thinking that Li Qin would definitely help them!
Zhang Rang said, "Send someone to be angry with Li Qin first, let him take the memorial, pick up the big problem, and then praise the little one. When his memorial arrives, we will show it to the emperor and hint to the emperor that if he does not agree to make the young one the prince, then Li Qin will not lead the army, and no one will go to quell the rebellion!"
The eunuchs nodded, and one of them said, "Can Li Qin come to Luoyang? I think the Yellow Turban Army will not surround the capital. He will not come with his soldiers until the last moment. If he comes in advance and asks the emperor for a reward, it will be difficult to speak. If he comes later, the emperor is anxious at that time, wouldn't he have to give him whatever he wants!"
Zhang Rang yelled and said, "I'm afraid that the emperor will not be able to support that time... Well, in short, the Yellow Turban thieves will not worry, they will be suppressed. There is no doubt about this!"
The Ten Eunuchs thought the same as the ministers outside, and they all thought that Li Qin would not come so soon. No matter how Li Qin looked at it, he didn't look like a loyal minister. He said he was a loyal minister, and he was the only emperor. He was still sick and dying!
At this moment, a little eunuch suddenly ran in panic outside, and Zhang Rang said angrily: "Damn it, who told you to come in!"
The little eunuch hurriedly said, "Reply to Zhang Dafu's words, I have something urgent to report to you!" He pointed outside and said, "Someone came to report to you just now, saying that the Fujiao Army has arrived!"
The eunuchs collectively lost their voices and were all stunned!
The little eunuch hurriedly said carefully: "Father Zhang, dear masters, the Fujiao Army is indeed here. It takes only half a day to arrive in Luoyang. The scout who reported the news is waiting at the gate of the palace!"
Zhang Rang stood up and said, "I really didn't expect it! This news has been verified? Go and call the person who reported the news, and we have something to ask."
The little eunuch hurried out and called the Yulin Army in. Zhang Rang asked him if the news was true. The Yulin Army talked about the scouts of Fujiao, and said that He Jin and the others went to verify it, but they didn't know whether it was true or not.
Zhang Rang said to the little eunuch: "Go ahead and take a look. If someone comes back, guard the palace gates everywhere. If there is no order from our family, don't let them in."
The little eunuch agreed and ran to the front, and the captain was also taken down.
Zhang Rang and the eunuchs were talking about it. They all felt good about themselves. They thought that the reason why Li Qin came so quickly showed that Li Qin was still under control. No matter how powerful Li Qin's army was, he was still very obedient. They supported Li Qin, but it was not in vain. Now they finally got some capital back!
After a while, the little eunuch ran back and said, "The Yulin Army who sent the letter was under house arrest and was not allowed to go out. Shizhong He and a large group of ministers were coming here, blocked outside the Wuyang Gate and were clamoring outside the door!"
Zhang Rang said: "Okay, since they are anxious to see the emperor, it means that the news has been confirmed. The Fujiao Army is indeed coming soon. This good news cannot be reported to the emperor. We have to report it to us!"
The eunuchs laughed and said, "It should be like this!" They hurried into the inner hall together.
Zhang Rang came to the edge of the couch and called the emperor in a low voice. Seeing Liu Hong open his eyes, he said, "Your Majesty, under your call, the world's most powerful army, the Jiao Army, has arrived to serve the king. It is only dozens of miles away from Luoyang. It will be here soon, and it will be here soon!"
Liu Hong whispered, and a flush appeared on his face. He sat up and said, "What did I say? I said Li Qin is loyal. You don't believe me yet. Now it's trustworthy!"
