The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms - v10 Chapter 333

Hearing Yang Biao’s words, Liu Xie was stunned and asked, “Mr. Yang, what is the matter that concerns the future of my Han family?”

Not only Liu Xie, but also Xun Yue and others came to the hall.

Yang Biao didn’t answer Liu Xie directly, but said dignifiedly: “Old minister is bold, dare to ask Your Majesty to step back first.”

“Left and right” and so on, obviously referring to Xun Yue and others. Xun Yue was a close official and Xun Zhen’s clan brother. When Liu Xie heard this, he was immediately embarrassed, but Xun Yue did not wait for Liu Xie to speak, so he took the initiative to ask him out. Liu Xie then pushed the boat along the river and let him go out.

After Xun Yue and the others withdrew from the hall, Liu Xie calmly said with a smile: “Yang Gong, what’s the big deal, I have to step back?”

“The old minister dared to ask Your Majesty, didn’t His Majesty see this danger?”

“Dangerous? What is the danger? Yang Gong, Qiqi has just settled Yuan Shu, and there is no external trouble around Yingchuan, so why is it dangerous?”

Suddenly, Liu Xie thought of what Xun Zhen said to him about Yuan Shao, and he was about to ask Yang Biao if the danger he said was “Jizhou”? But before the words were spoken, Yang Biao said, “Your Majesty, the danger that the old minister is referring to is the chariot general Xun Zhen!”

Liu Xie was taken aback, “Jizhou” Yunyun, he will no longer think about talking, and hurriedly asked: “What is the meaning of Yang Gong’s words!”

“Your Majesty, since Xun Zhen negotiated Yuan Shu’s decision, in recent days, Xun Yu and others have asked Xu County to be the new capital, and then Huangfu Li and others have entered the table and asked to pay homage to the great Sima Xun Zhen… Your Majesty, these two matters. There is no doubt that the master behind it is Xun Zhen! And what is Xun Zhen doing this for, can’t your majesty see it?”

Liu Xie pondered and said, “Yang Gong, what do you mean?”

Yang Biao told Liu Xie what he was thinking when he was waiting for the summons at the palace gate, and after speaking, he said: “Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that these two things must not be allowed! , then Xun Zhen will be a disaster in the court in the future, and Dong Zhuo and Li Jue will not be able to match!” After speaking, he bowed down to the hall again.

Liu Xie’s expression changed, his hands subconsciously clenched the corners of his sleeves, looked outside the hall, then withdrew his gaze and fell back to Yang Biao, hesitantly said: “Yang Gong, the loyalty of the chariots to the imperial court is obvious to all! This! Besides, the reason why Xun Yu asked Xu County to be the new capital tentatively is also justifiable and well-founded, and the fact that Huangfu Li and others have written to ask for a chariot to ride a big Sima, Yang Gong, you may not know it yet, just today, the chariot The cavalry presented a list to me. In the list, he insisted that he would not dare to accept this worship, and denounced Huangfu Li and others as flatterers. Duke Yang, the loyalty of the chariot and the cavalry, has been fully revealed,… for disaster The words of the court, Yang Gong, you are probably thinking too much?”

This is exactly the same as the previous request by the court officials to worship Xun Zhen as a general. Liu Xie may not have seen it, but how could Yang Biao not see it? This is clearly just a replay of Xun Zhen’s old technique, and another double-reed came out! First, through the above table of Huangfu Li and others to test the meaning of Liu Xie, Yang Biao, etc., and then Xun Zhen went out to show humility. , kill two birds with one stone.

Yang Biao then said to Liu Xie: “Your Majesty, when the courtier asked Xun Zhen to be a general last time, didn’t he do the same thing? Your Majesty, he is pretending! Your Majesty must not be deceived by him. !”

“Did he cheated?”

Yang Biao said: “Your Majesty, this is nothing more than a plan to try to capture it! Huangfu Li’s generation has tended to become flamboyant, and has long since joined Xun Zhen’s sect. No pain, no use, what is the use? Your Majesty, the old minister urges your majesty not to fall for it! Xun Zhen, the old minister has seen him clearly now. He seems to be gentle and modest, but in fact he has wolf ambitions. Unexpected meaning!” At this point, the tone was stern, full of disgust and scorn.

“Yang Gong, it’s not like this, is it?”

Yang Biao said, “Does your majesty not believe the old minister’s words?”

“Empress Yang, although I didn’t know Che Qi before, it’s been almost a year since we met in Chang’an. If it’s true, as Duke Yang said, Che Qi is an ambitious man, but how could he have been here for nearly a year? In the middle, you have always been so humble and courteous to the court and to me?”

Yang Biao said in a deep voice: “Your Majesty, I think that Wang Mang was very humble at first, and won praise from the court and the public!”

Liu Xie’s complexion changed greatly, and he said, “Eunuch Yang, this, this…, are you using Wang Mang to ride a bike? This is impossible!”

“Your Majesty, this old minister speaks from the bottom of his heart!” Yang Biao fell to the ground, and said generously and fiercely, “Your Majesty, the old minister has been in court for more than twenty years since he was not abandoned by the late emperor and was worshipped as a minister since the Xiping period! If it is said that Xun Zhen has only been humble and courteous in the past year, Your Majesty, the old minister has been sincere and loyal to the Han Dynasty and the imperial court for more than 20 years! Just once! Or, it’s the loyalty of the old minister, didn’t your majesty see it?”

At this moment, there were no Xun Yue and others in the hall, but Zhao Yue and other eunuchs were still there. When Liu Xie saw that Yang Biao couldn’t bow down, he ordered Zhao Yue to help him up again, and invited him to the table again.

Yang Biao still refused to sit at the table. After getting up, he still stood in the hall and continued to say to Liu Xie: “Your Majesty, I won’t say anything else, just say that a few days ago, Your Majesty issued a decree to call Dong Cheng to return to the court. Why did Taiwan dare not obey? After His Majesty called them to see them, they dared to shirk each other in front of His Majesty. Why? Why did they have the courage? Your Majesty, it was all because Xun Zhen was behind The reason for their support!… And Your Majesty, just yesterday, before the old minister came to see His Majesty today, another courtier once asked to see His Majesty, but waited for a full day outside the palace, and was not summoned by His Majesty, His Majesty…”

Liu Xie was stunned, interrupted Yang Biao and said, “A courtier asked me to see me yesterday?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“I haven’t heard the news.”

Yang Biao said: “Your Majesty, the old minister of course knows that it is not that His Majesty has not summoned him, but it must be that His Majesty has not heard the report and does not know about it.”

Zhao Yue, consultant of Liu Association, said, “Do you know about this?”

Zhao Yue’s expression remained unchanged, and she replied respectfully, “Your Majesty, this little slave does not know about this.”

Yang Biao said: “Your Majesty, there is a matter of the Shangshutai, and a matter that the courtiers asked to see yesterday but His Majesty did not inform them, just these two things, Your Majesty can see Xun Zhen’s wolf ambitions! Xun Zhen was in front of His Majesty before. Pretending to be respectful, that is because he is not firmly established in the court, but now, as His Majesty said just now, he has already settled Yuan Shu, there is no external trouble around Yingchuan, and he has another plan to destroy Yuan Shu. His great deeds, so he is revealing his true form! Your Majesty, it is urgent to stop it in time, otherwise, the minister will fear it, and the disaster of the court is imminent!”

All of what Yang Biao said were facts, and when the words came into my ears, Liu Xie couldn’t help but think about it.

Liu Xie thought for a while, and his face became serious. He asked Yang Biao and said, “Yang Gong, what do you mean? Just tell me clearly.”

Yang Biao said: “Your Majesty, this minister thinks that first of all, Xu County should be designated as the new capital, and it must not be allowed! Moreover, not only can the new capital be set in Xu County, but in the opinion of the old minister, it should be returned to Luoyang as soon as possible.”

“But… Mr. Yang, the current situation in Luoyang is like this, I’m afraid it’s not good enough!”

Yang Biao said: “Your Majesty, there are two reasons why Luoyang is not good. One is that the palace city has not been repaired, and the other is that Yuan Shao is in Hebei. These two things are actually not difficult to solve.”

“Oh? What is the solution for Mr. Yang?”

Yang Biao told Liu Xie the solution they negotiated. Then he bowed down for the third time and said, “Your Majesty,

What the old minister said today is all the honest and loyal words of the old minister! The countermeasures that the old minister has just offered to solve the difficulties in Luoyang are also the feasible solutions that the old minister and the loyal people in the court have come up with after repeated deliberation! Your Majesty, the old minister begged your Majesty to consider it, it is best to make a decision as soon as possible, and it is not advisable to delay it for a long time! “

Yang Biao accused Xun Zhen, especially Xun Zhen’s unpredictable remarks. To be honest, Liu Xie didn’t believe it at first—after all, as Liu Xie himself said, since Chang’an and Xun Zhen met and knew each other until now. In the past year, Xun Zhen has always behaved very well, gentle and elegant, which made Liu Xie feel the dignity of being the emperor. From the bottom of his heart, he did not want to doubt Xun Zhen, but he ordered Dong Cheng to return to Xu County. It was blocked. Yesterday, a minister asked to see Liu Xie, but Liu Xie didn’t know about these two things. However, it happened recently. Liu Xie felt it personally. It was too heavy, but Liu Xie also hesitated. It cannot be said that he had completely doubted Xun Zhen’s loyalty. At least a seed of doubt had already been planted.

After a long time, Liu Xie said: “Yang Gong, public will, I know, but I denied Xu County as the new capital, didn’t I have issued an edict a few days ago to order the public meetings? Or else, Yang Gong, After the results of the public meetings, I will make a decision! How about it?”

In the current court, with Zhao Wen and others gradually leaning towards Xun Zhen, the forces on Xun Zhen’s side have already prevailed, and those who really resolutely oppose Xun Zhen, in fact, only a few people such as Yang Biao are left. That is to say, if If you wait for the result of the courtiers’ meeting, it is very likely that this result will be beneficial to Xun Zhen.

Yang Biao said anxiously: “Your Majesty, why do you have to wait for the courtiers’ meeting on such a big event? Your Majesty should be the dictator of the Holy Will!”

“Yang Gong, how can this be done! I’m afraid I still have to listen to the intentions of the princes in the court? Otherwise, wouldn’t I become a foolish monarch?”

Yang Biao had no choice but to accept Liu Xie’s decision.

Seeing that Yang Biao had still not gotten up until this moment, Liu Xie simply went down to the hall in person, lifted him up with his own hands, helped him to the seat next to him, and asked him to sit down.

After Yang Biao sat down, Liu Xie returned to the dragon chair, and the two monarchs and ministers talked about other things, but they didn’t need to say more.

It’s just that after Xun Yue and others left the hall, they looked into the hall from a distance and saw that Yang Biao was generous at first, and then he couldn’t bow down. Although they couldn’t hear what he was saying to Liu Xie, they connected with what happened recently. , coupled with Yang Biao’s unusual behavior, Xun Yue can roughly guess what Yang Biao is telling Liu Xie at this moment, which must be related to Xun Zhen.

However, as a waiter, it was time for him to take up his post. Liu Xie didn’t let him go. He couldn’t leave without permission, so he quietly took a few steps to the side and summoned a gentleman not far away. official.

Langguan, divided into several categories, were the reserve officials of the imperial court, and some also had the responsibility of guarding the palace. Since Xun Zhen took power in the imperial court, he has recommended many people to serve as officials in the imperial court.

Xun Yue explained a few words to him in a low voice.

After listening to Xun Yue’s words, the man looked serious and bowed to promise.

But what Xun Yue explained was to let him go out of the palace immediately to ask to see Xun Zhen, and to inform Xun Zhen about Yang Biao’s audience with Liu Xie today. This gentleman knew the seriousness of the matter, and after taking the order, he did not dare to delay, so he left the palace and went straight to the Chaqi Mansion, asking to see Xun Zhen.

When he arrived at the Chaqi Mansion, he saw Xun Zhen smoothly. The official told Xun Zhen what Xun Yue said and what he saw in the palace of Liu Xie and Yang Biao.

When Xun Zhen heard this, she kept calm and asked, “You are on duty today, but you left the palace without notice. Do you know that you have violated the regulations?”

“Yes, the servant knows.”

Xun Zhen said: “You go to look for your Shangguan now and ask for your sins.”

This gentleman did not feel depressed at all because of this, on the contrary, he looked very excited. Of course, he knew that, on the one hand, his Shangguan would not punish him severely, and on the other hand, he did this for Xun Zhen, Xun Zhen would definitely repay him in the future, so why would he be frustrated and unhappy? So he happily agreed, and after he resigned, he followed Xun Zhen’s instructions, went to his Shangguan, made a random excuse to leave the palace, and pleaded guilty.

At the time Chen Yi was in the hall, and after the officer went out, Chen Yi looked grim and said to Xun Zhen, “Ming Gong! Yang Gong suddenly entered the palace on this occasion and asked to make a statement to the sage alone. He must have rushed. It’s coming from Duke Ming!”

Xun Zhen had a stern manner, thought for a while, and said, “Go and invite Zhicai, Wenruo, Fengxiao and others.”

Xi Zhicai and others were all at their respective official temples, and after waiting for more than half an hour, they arrived one after another.

Everyone sat down~www.mtlnovel.com~ Chen Yi told them what Lang Guan had just reported to Xun Zhen, and said that they had listened. After everyone listened, they were speculating on the reason and purpose of Yang Biao’s request to see Liu Xie. Dian Wei came in to report, and someone outside the mansion asked to see him.

Xun Zhen ordered this person to come in.

The person who asked to see was a eunuch. He entered the hall, fell to the ground, took out a letter from his bosom, and presented it to Xun Zhen respectfully.

This was not the first time this **** had come. After seeing Xun Zhen holding the letter, Dian Wei took him out without Xun Zhen giving any further orders, and took some gold and silver with him.

In the hall, Xun Zhen opened the letter sent by the eunuch. After reading it, he raised his head and said, “Yang Gong asked to see the saint today, just as Qing and the others guessed, it was for the sake of Dingxindu and the ministers. Worship me as the Great Sima.” Having said this, he paused, stroked his short mustache, and said with a slight smile, “Also, you may know, how does Duke Yang describe me in the hall today, in front of the Holy Master? “

“How would you describe Duke Ming?”

Xun Zhen said calmly, “He compared me to Wang Mang.”
