The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms - v10 Chapter 338
The worried minister said, “Yuan Shao wanted to set up the emperor Liu Yu arbitrarily, but the sage did not like him at all. If he were to write to Yuan Shao now, once the sage knew about it, he would only suspect that the sage would suspect me.” After a pause, he continued, “In terms of loyalty to the imperial court, loyalty to the sage, the chariots and horses are obviously unpredictable, but Yuan Shao is definitely not a loyal minister!”
One person in the seat let out a long sigh.
Everyone raised their eyes to look at this man, and the minister was worried and asked, “Why did you suddenly sigh? But you also think that Yuan Shao is not a loyal minister, so shouldn’t you go and write to him?”
The man with a long sigh had gray hair and gray hair, and was over sixty years old. He stroked his beard and said with a sigh, “No, my sigh, it’s not because of this.”
“Why is that?”
The man stood up and paced the hall with his hands behind his back.
However, seeing that he was wearing a wide robe, with a fluttering white beard under his chin, and a thin face, there was a look of deep worry and a look of righteous indignation. He seemed to be unable to restrain his inner excitement. After giving a salute, he stood up, looked around the court and the princes in the hall, and said: “My Han family has been in the world for four hundred years! Virtue/Huairou, as strong as an overlord, and those who are disobedient at home and abroad, will be defeated by the emperor in the end, how powerful is the world! And Wudi Dynasty, first broke the Xiongnu, sealed the wolf to live in Xu, followed by the Western Regions, and even made my Han family. Its prestige and reputation spread far and wide in foreign lands. To the end of the former Han Dynasty, Wang Mang usurped power and the world was in chaos, but at this moment, the ancestor came into being, and in Kunyang, not far from Xu County, he defeated Wang Mang and millions of soldiers with thousands of troops. The crowd, what a majesty they are, thus laying the foundation for the great cause of the rejuvenation of the Han family in one fell swoop!
“Emperor Gaozu has been up to now for 400 years, and all the scholars and people in the sea have been deeply enshrined by Han, but now how could it fall into the state of chaos, and at this time of turmoil, first leaving Yuan Shao, then riding out, not thinking about Serve the country, be loyal to the imperial court, but have unpredictable thoughts of each other? Thinking of this, it is really heart-wrenching! The most hateful thing is that I am old now, if I am still in my prime, I must recruit righteous soldiers to punish these two. , so that my Han family can return to a peaceful and prosperous world!”
He looked around again, looked at Yang Biao again, saluted Yang Biao again, and finally said, “Yang Gong, Zhu Gong! The reason why I sigh is because I thought of this!”
The content of what this person said was exactly what Yang Biao and most of the ministers in the hall thought.
Excluding the so-called “loyalty”, only in terms of interests, in the process of establishing the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu mainly relied on the power of the powerful and right surnames, so after the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he got the largest share of political and economic benefits, in other words , In the words of later generations, the ruling class is precisely these tyrannical landlords.
Since they are vested interests, the representatives of these powerful landlords, that is, these ministers in the court, will inevitably have the understanding that they are in common with the Han family. ——The interests of their family and the interests of the Han family are actually mixed together.
In this case, under this background, for those trying to change the ruling order, that is, trying to damage their family and personal interests, whether the Yellow Turbans, Yuan Shao, Xun Zhen, of course, they will inevitably be quite hostile.
Therefore, Yuan Shao and Xun Zhen’s unpredictable and unpredictable plans are indeed unacceptable to Yang Biao and other senior Han officials.
The worried minister heard this and said, “This is the end of the matter, what’s the use of talking about it?”
Chang Tan was silent for a while, then spoke again and said, “In the current situation, I’m just talking empty words here, it’s useless, but I just said it to Yuan Shao, but I don’t think it’s right.”
But this person also objected to writing Yuan Shao.
Worried, the minister asked, “What’s your view on the Duke?”
The man said: “As I said just now, Yuan Shao is also a person with ulterior motives. If you go to the book and form an alliance with him, wouldn’t that mean that the front door rejects the wolf and the back door welcomes the tiger? Even if this is temporarily restrained But what will we do in the future? How do we deal with Yuan Shao? Is it possible that I really want to rely on him, so I can’t follow his orders?”
Yuan Shao’s third prince, Yuan Shao still had quite a few friends in the court, and there was another minister who was in favor of writing to Yuan Shao. He said: “The most urgent task is to curb the prostitutes and powers. Acting by chance?”
“How to act by chance?”
This man had some words to deal with, and said eloquently: “Yuan Shao has ulterior motives and a heart of disobedience, but he is far away in Jizhou, and the chariot is in the middle of the court, Yuan Shao is far away, and the chariot is close, the Under this situation, even if I wait to write to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao will definitely be difficult to control the power of the court. I can just do this, check and balance the chariots and cavalry! This so-called external control is also. After the chariots and cavalry are controlled, I will wait for Take care of the situation calmly, then wait for the opportunity, given time, in my opinion, it is not difficult to restore the dignity of my Han family to the domestic situation again!”
There is some truth in what this man said.
Yuan Shao is in Ye County, so just like Xun Zhen asked the court to worship him as a general, even if Yang Biao went to book with him, Yang Biao and others officially formed an alliance with him, Yuan Shao was beyond his reach, and he could play a role in the government. What does it do? At most, he just has a false name, and he can’t really control the power of the dynasty. In this way, Yang Biao and others can completely switch between Yuan Shao and Xun Zhen, waiting for the opportunity.
Everyone was arguing, and Yang Biao sat on the main seat without saying a word.
Seeing that he couldn’t compete with the ugly, everyone in the hall stopped talking and turned their attention to Yang Biao.
However, he saw Yang Biao kneeling on the seat with his hands on his knees, sitting in a dignified posture, but his eyes were slightly closed, but he seemed to be dozing off.
Worried, the minister asked him and said, “Why is Duke Yang silent? But do you think that everything I’ve discussed is inappropriate?”
Yang Biao slowly opened his eyes, and everyone saw a sad look in his eyes.
Worried, the minister was taken aback and asked, “Mr. Yang, what’s wrong with you?”
Yang Biao was silent for a while, and then heaved a long sigh. He stroked the gray beard under his chin and said, “Just now I heard the Duke and others talking about my Han family’s 400-year-old world, but I can’t help but think of when I was young. The Han family is really ill-fated, since I started my career, and now, there has been almost no peace in the court and the local area! In recent years, there has been a major epidemic, followed by the Yellow Turban rebellion, which has made the lives of the people in China even more miserable. I can’t live in peace. Every time I think about it, I don’t feel sad.”
What Yang Biao said is really right. Since he entered the dynasty, the world of the Han family has been in chaos. When Emperor Huan was first in power, a foreign relative Liang Ji was in power. Emperor Huan called Liang Ji a domineering general. With the help of the eunuchs, Liang Ji was defeated with great difficulty, but the eunuchs had dictatorship, which caused the disaster of the party, which greatly damaged the vitality of the scholars in the whole country.
Speaking of which, there is a big reason why Zhang Jiao’s call has led to uprisings in all the states and counties all over the world.
Scholars are officials, although there are many people who are stupid and greedy for money, but after all, scholars are still different from eunuchs or **** children. First, scholars read the book of sages and sages, whether for themselves or their families, more or less. Everyone loves fame, but after most of the famous people were imprisoned, all the states and counties became the children, in-laws, and henchmen of eunuchs. Although these people cannot be without integrity, most of them only have money and interests in their eyes. It’s just that, because it made the people of the world difficult to live, and it happened to be plagued every year, the people couldn’t live on, so there was the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
After the Yellow Turban chaos, and now, the situation in this world has gradually eroded to the point of being out of control.
——In fact, during this period, it is not that there is no chance of saving. There are still opportunities. For example, Huangfu Li once suggested to Huangfu Song that he should kill Dong Zhuo. If Huangfu Song listened to Huangfu Li’s advice and killed Dong Zhuo, then Huangfu Song himself might be suspected by the Emperor Ling, and he would not fall. What good is it, but if you tell the Han family, it may be able to avoid the subsequent chaos of Dong Zhuo. It’s just that Huangfu Song is clean and self-righteous, and he refuses to use special punishment for his own reputation. He didn’t kill Dong Zhuo, so there was Dong Zhuo in the back caused troubles in Luoyang.
However, having said that, in fact, even if Huangfu Song killed Dong Zhuo at the time, wouldn’t the world of the Han family not be in chaos again? Not quite. Because from the root, the central committee of the Han Dynasty is really rotten, so even if there is no Dong Zhuo, there will be Li Zhuo, and there will be Wang Zhuo. If nothing else, the Yuan Shu brothers have ulterior motives, don’t they?
These and needless to say.
Just talking about Yang Biao and other people in the hall, Yang Biao is among them, he is a relatively young one, he is in his fifties, and most of the elders are in their sixties or seventies, but at this moment, everyone is facing each other. His face was full of sorrow, thinking of Yuan Shao in Jizhou and Xun Zhen in the dynasty, two of the most powerful warlords in the present, all had ulterior motives, and they were all bleak and worried about the future of the Han Dynasty.
However, there are some people who don’t want to behave like this, but want to do something to clean up the situation. I just want to ask Duke Yang, would you like to write Yuan Shao?”
“To be honest with you, I mentioned this to the sage last time when I visited the sage, suggesting that the sage could put aside the old suspicions for a while, and use Yuan Shao’s power to balance the chariots and horses, but for one thing, the sage didn’t make a statement at that time, Second, it was me who wrote to Yuan Shao, and only one copy of the letter, do you think that Yuan Shao can be used by us? I am afraid it will be difficult!”
The man stood up and said: “It’s definitely difficult to just send a letter, but I have a plan, which is enough to ensure that Yuan Shao is willing to help me wait!”
“What is it?”
The man said: “Isn’t the chariot and the horse trying to make the imperial court dismiss the prince? Why doesn’t the prince take the initiative to give in?”
“Abandon yourself?”
The man said: “After resigning ~www.mtlnovel.com~ on the sage of the table, please let the Taiwei be in Yuan Shao!”
“…Worship Yuan Shao?”
The man said, “I can assure you that Yuan Shao will definitely be willing to be of the same heart as me and fight against chariots and cavalry!”
“This……”
The man said, “What? Does Duke Yang disagree with my opinion?”
Yang Biao remained silent and did not answer.
The man then said, “If Duke Yang does not agree, I dare to ask, but because Duke Yang is greedy for the honor of the post of Taiwei?”
