Chapter 356: Betrayal of Relatives
After Yu Fuluo asked for marriage, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao bowed their heads and said nothing. They knew that this was a good thing. Dong Hu had a grudge against the Huns. As long as the emperor betrothed Princess Wannian to Yu Fuluo, he would most likely anger more than ten thousand soldiers in the Nanying camp. Both sides would definitely fight. After the two sides made such a fuss, Hu San and Dong Yue had no way to stay in Luoyang, and the general's mansion would have no soldiers.
The strategy is the best strategy. It is also a great thing for the Huns to be the punching bag for the soldiers in the south of the city, but Yuan Shao and Cao Cao did not dare to get involved.
"well……"
He Jin hesitated for a long time...
"The princess is indeed at the age of marriage... Benchu, Meng De, what do you think?"
Yuan Shao frowned slightly and said with a fist: "Your Highness the Princess is indeed at the age of getting married, but this is a private matter of the inner palace. The last general... the last general should not be mixed with it."
Cao Cao said: "As Benchu said, we are all ministers and should not be involved in the royal private affairs."
After the two of them said that, they all retreated, leaving only Yu Fuluo standing in front of the hall. He Jin frowned for a while...
"The bravery of Liu is beyond ordinary people... well! This general will enter the palace today."
Yu Fuluo knelt on the ground with expressionless face and held his fists solemnly.
"My nephew thanked my uncle!"
Yuan Shao and Cao Cao looked at each other inexplicably again, showing some solemnity. He Jin was obviously stunned for a moment, and the next moment he laughed to the sky.
"Ha ha……"
"Okay... no need for politeness in my nephew!"
...
He Jin was overjoyed. Although there were more than 10,000 elite soldiers in the South Camp, even though He Jin was just a butcher selling meat in Wancheng. Even though he had been to the south camp several times, he saw countless stinking men. But he could also see the difference between the soldiers in the South Camp, especially the Shanziying Pingcheng garrison led by Hu San. Even though everyone was still covered in half of the smelly skin on their bodies in hot weather, those guys did not slacken in training because of this.
There were 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers in the South Camp were elite, and this was absolutely impossible to be wrong. There were many ministers familiar with military strategies in the Han Dynasty. They could see the elite troops led by Hu San and Dong Yue, but everyone could not control them. On the contrary, after Dong Xiaoyi and Hu San suddenly crossed the Zhang River and entered Shexian County, the four thousand Huns who could escape had lost their clan territory and their clan members. No one believed that they had the ability to rebel, whether it was Emperor Liu Hong, the ministers of the court, or the major families in Luoyang.
Compared with Dong Buyicon, who listened to the tune but did not listen to the announcement, the Huns, who had only 4,000 cavalry left, were more reliable and credible!
He Jin was overjoyed, fearing that the emperor would give him an order to go to Chang'an immediately, so he hurried to the palace without hesitation. After Yuan Shao and Cao Cao walked out of the General's Mansion, they watched Yu Fuluo disappear at the entrance of the streets and alleys. They did not say a word since they walked out of the General's Mansion. Until Fuluo disappeared, Cao Cao sighed softly.
"I'm afraid it's not a good deed..."
Seeing Cao Cao smiled bitterly, Yuan Shao knew his concerns and smiled undeniably.
"No matter whether the princess marry Na Yufuluo or not, the 15,000 troops in the southern camp should not stay in the imperial capital all the time, just as the princess said to your Cao family."
Cao Cao was silent for a while. The princess could face the Xu family in front of the emperor. The Cao family could also threaten the life and death of any Luoyang family. Just when the emperor was seriously ill, no one wanted such an uncontrolled army to lie in Luoyang.
Thinking of the worries in his heart, Cao Cao said expressionlessly: "The world is not the world of one person, only those who are virtuous are... Although Dong Hu is a little arrogant, his words are good. The world... needs to be more stable."
Yuan Shao nodded and said, "As Meng De said, it is safer to be managed by wise ministers in the world."
Cao Cao raised his eyebrows, but did not object to this statement, saying, "The Yufuluo's plan is quite good, but I should have seen that once the princess is unwilling to marry the Yufuluo, what kind of disaster will happen if the soldiers in the South Camp rebelled in Luoyang?"
Yuan Shao frowned and said, "It shouldn't be possible? The general is the queen's brother. If the princess asks the soldiers of the Nanying camp to attack the general's mansion, wouldn't Dong Hou confirm the name of the prince? Even if the princess doesn't understand at a young age, the queen wouldn't be so stupid, right? Meng De, are you too worried?"
Cao Cao looked at the empty street and smiled bitterly.
"I hope so..."
Cao Cao smiled bitterly and sighed, "Dong Hu didn't play according to common sense, and no one could guarantee whether Hu San or not, whether Dong Yue would attack the General's Mansion. If it really made it out of control, they would be in trouble with the word "official officer".
The two left with inexplicable worries, but He Jin ignored these things and hurried to the queen's bedroom. Empress He and his son and daughter were listening to the Shangshu Lu Zhi's explanation of the military strategy. When he saw this scene, He Jin frowned instinctively.
Queen He did not expect that her daughter would become a general in command of the army. If she was still in Taiyuan County, she might think that Liu Yan was just a puppet and looked like a guy, and would not pay too much attention to her daughter's education. As a girl, she would eventually return to take care of her husband and children. But when she was hugging her trembling son tightly in Hanoi, when she was panicking and helpless, Liu Yan personally led a 20,000 army to appear in front of her. Suddenly, she found that she might be wrong, and her daughter might really be a general in command of the army.
Liu Yan was wild outside for a year and did not want to be locked in a high-walled courtyard again. She thought she would be thug by the nanny this time, but Empress He persuaded Lu Zhi and asked Lu Zhi to teach the military strategy of the siblings.
Seeing He Jin in a hurry, Lu Zhi stopped the class. Perhaps he knew that some things were not something he could get involved with, so he bowed to several people and left the queen's bedroom.
As soon as Lu Zhi left, He Jin opened his mouth and was about to say "marriage". When he saw Liu Yan and Liu Bian, he changed his mind and said a few casual words and drove the siblings out. Not only that, all the palace maids and eunuchs in the room were driven out by him, and Empress He also became solemn, but when He Jin spoke...
"What?"
"You want Yan'er to marry Na Yufuluo-"
The laws of the Han Dynasty stipulated that women must get married when they are fifteen years old. If they do not get married, they must pay five times the tax and pay six hundred yuan a year. Liu Yan was fifteen years old and reached the age when she should get married.
Empress He was selecting a son-in-law for her daughter two or three years ago. In private, she didn't know how many sons of aristocratic families were selected. However, some rumors circulated in Luoyang City affected some Liu Yan's reputation. It was difficult to find a good son, but it wouldn't be possible to let her biological daughter marry the Huns?
He Jin hurriedly said, "One time, another time, the Huns have been finished. His Majesty gave them a surname. Then Yufuluo is a Han citizen like you and me, and they have lived in Luoyang since then, so why should the eldest sister be too worried?"
Empress He said unhappily: "Don't you know that Lintao Huwa has a grudge against Na Yufuluo? If Yan'er betrothed to Na Yufuluo, how can she lead the soldiers of the Southern Camp?"
He Jin said unhappily: "No matter how many soldiers in the South Camp are, how could they be my He family? How could that child be a loyal minister? But Yu Fuluo is different! The Huns have been beaten by that child, and the remaining four thousand Hun Hu cavalry have become ownerless people. If the eldest sister nods, these fierce Hu cavalry will be the leader of my He family from now on! One is the 15,000 soldiers with ulterior motives, and the other is the 4,000 Hu cavalry who are completely loyal. You won't be able to see which one is better, do you?"
Looking at his silent sister, He Jin sat next to her with a grass ball, lowering his voice several times.
"The star in February is on the Emperor's Star. The Grand Historian said it is not conducive to Your Majesty. There are also children singing in the capital. Today, Your Majesty fell ill in the bed. Once... Once Your Majesty is in vain, Shi Hou and Dong Hou will have one person as the emperor..."
"You're a bastard!"
Queen He was furious.
"Bian'er is the eldest son, so what qualifications is Liu Xie qualified to inherit the throne of Emperor?"
He Jin's words angered Queen He and hurriedly grabbed her sister who was about to get up.
"The eldest sister is right, how could my brother be willing to let Liu Xie be the emperor? But His Majesty still refuses to enthrone the crown prince, which is true!"
He Jin sat down again with anger Queen He and said helplessly: "Even if the elder brother doesn't say it, the eldest sister should know that the court officials don't like Lintao children, and they hate the soldiers in the South Camp even more! What if... what if the court officials turn to support Liu Xie and support the Queen Mother because of the soldiers in the South Camp..., what should you and my brother and sister do you?"
...
"If all the five soldiers in the southern camp are loyal to our He family, they will naturally be much stronger than the Huns, but they are loyal to the children of the Dong family! Even if His Majesty is in vain and Bian'er ascends the throne, what should the ten thousand soldiers who do not obey the king's orders deal with?"
He Jin leaned closer again and whispered: "Your Majesty is still there at this time. Even if the child in Lintao is arrogant, he dare not rebel. He will exchange for the real four thousand elite Hu cavalry, the eldest sister... Only those who truly belong to him can protect Bian'er and ascend the throne to the emperor!"
Seeing Queen He remained silent, He Jin knew that he was already moved when he saw his sister who had grown up since childhood.
Indeed, Empress He was moved by He Jin. No matter how good the Huns He Jin said, she would not be moved. No matter how arrogant and domineering the tiger baby was, there had never been any rebellion or rebellion in the past few years. However, the Huns rebelled last winter. Moreover, the reason why the Huns bowed their heads now was because Dong Hu defeated them again. After walking all the way through countless conspiracies and tricks in the palace, Empress He can still see these things.
But He Jin's words were not wrong. The emperor has not yet established Liu Bian's title of crown prince. The civil and military officials of the court hate Dong Hu and the righteousness of Dong Bu led by Dong Hu is also a fact!
I hate and don’t like it, and cannot get the support of the court ministers. Will the future emperor still be his own son?
Queen He didn't know, but she couldn't hide the panic in her heart... Queen He suddenly felt a little disappointed.
"This matter...Don't let Yan'er know about this matter for the time being. Let's talk about it later after... the eldest sister told His Majesty."
"And... the child has a grudge with the Huns and is extremely disgusted with the court's marriage. If he knows it, no one knows what kind of chaos will happen. This matter must be safer. Then... that ten thousand yuan of money should be sent directly to Nanying, so that the soldiers will feel uneasy."
He Jin thought for a while and nodded, "What the eldest sister said is that after the eldest brother returns, he will send the money, but... but the eldest sister must convince Your Majesty as soon as possible, once... once the eldest brother goes to Chang'an..."
"Okay! That's it!"
