"There is a tree in the garden, and there is a cicada on it. The cicada is sitting high up, screaming sadly and drinking dew. I don't know that the praying mantis is behind it!" [Shuoyuan·Zhengjian]
"Servant Yang Qi, and Wang Bin, the captain of the carriage." After hearing the person outside the door announcing his home, Shi Sunrui felt relieved. He saw Yang Zan with a determined smile, got up and went to open the door. Standing outside the door was
But it’s not just Yang Qi and Wang Bin.
Yang Qi stepped inside with a serious face. When he saw that there were only Shisun Rui and Yang Zan in the room, he did not continue to walk forward. Instead, he stood sideways. Shisun Rui and others were surprised when they saw the gray-haired
Wang Bin followed closely behind a child who walked in. The child was dressed in eunuch's clothes, with a childlike look on his face. There was a hint of confidence in his eyebrows that was beyond his peers. Shisun Rui recognized the other person's identity and stood up immediately.
, trotted forward to meet him.
Why is the emperor dressed like this and coming to the Chancellor's desk in the middle of the night!
"The servant of the minister shoots Chen Rui, and the servant of the minister Zan comes to see your majesty!"
The emperor smiled and pulled the two of them up cordially: "Get up quickly, the ground is very cold at night."
After several people stood up, they each took their seats. In order to hide from others, the emperor specially put on the clothes of Mu Shun, the medical superintendent. At this time, Mu Shun was timidly "resting" in the promulgation room instead of the emperor. He was slightly older than the emperor.
, so the emperor was wearing these ill-fitting clothes, and his figure looked even thinner. Although he felt that the loose clothes were a bit in the way, the emperor still sat confidently and calmly on the main seat, with several unstamped letters placed on the case.
The ruler of the seal is an edict.
Although Cai Lun had improved papermaking for many years, the imperial edicts of the Han Dynasty still followed the tradition of the pre-Qin Dynasty, using a bamboo slip as the imperial edict, also called the imperial edict. The emperor's imperial edict was one foot by one inch long, so it was called a ruler and an imperial edict.
The emperor picked up a few rulers on the desk and looked at them curiously by candlelight. The content was just ordinary official rhetoric and had no special meaning. So he put it down again and said to Shisun Rui
He said, "I didn't receive any notice of my visit during the night, and disturbed your rest. It's my fault."
The emperor's behavior has been very different these days. Although his words and deeds are deliberately concealed, the rumors circulating in the palace reveal the emperor's extraordinary status. This makes Shisun Rui even more afraid to be careless. What's more, the emperor came to the center in disguise at this juncture, asking him to deal with it.
Be more cautious: "The minister is staying in the palace directly, so that he can be prepared for emergencies at any time. This is the responsibility of the ministers. It's just that your majesty is just a simple person tonight. I don't know what's important?"
"Pu She is a smart man, don't you know what's going on? Wang Situ underestimated my young age and didn't want to tell me. Does Pu She think so too? This matter will be settled tomorrow. You keep saying it is.
Isn’t it ridiculous for me to stay out of the matter and be the last one to learn about Dong’s plot to kill Dong?”
Scholar Sun Rui was from Pingling, Fufeng. He had little family business and was well-educated. He was a famous scholar in Guanzhong. His family had inherited Confucian classics from generation to generation. He had a close relationship with the four powerful families of Fufeng, "Banma Gengdou".
In addition to the Imperial Lieutenant Ma Rixi, he was a leader of the Kansai scholars.
Earlier, Yang Zan had tried some words to test Shisun Rui. Before Shisun Rui could react, he was questioned by the emperor again. Even so, he still replied unhurriedly: "Since your Majesty knows, he should also
I understand that Wang Situ and the ministers are all thinking about the welfare of the world, but the matter is important, and the ministers really cannot bear to put His Majesty in danger, so please forgive me!"
The emperor sneered and said: "Why don't I forgive you? The ministers are serving the country and the people. If I make unreasonable accusations without distinguishing between innocent and innocent, what is the difference between me and the foolish king in ancient times? You should let Pu She know that I originally wanted to entrust Wang Yun with a great responsibility.
Who knew that he despised me at every turn and wanted to take charge of the government? How could I trust him? Who can guarantee that the situation in the government will not happen again in the future? As a descendant of the Liu family and the emperor of the Han Dynasty, I shoulder the responsibility of all people and rejuvenate the country, and it is my unshirkable responsibility!
How can we entrust it to others?"
The two fell to the ground and confessed again. Yang Zan knew that the emperor wanted to conquer Shisun Rui, so he was so happy that he kept silent and watched the emperor's behavior. Shisun Rui, however, was in a different state of mind from Yang Zan. He had already heard some rumors about the emperor.
, but they were all hesitant, but now he is completely convinced. Now the execution of Dong is about to be successful. For the emperor and Wang Yun, the execution of Dong is just the beginning of the court struggle, and the Shangshutai, which holds the power of issuing edicts and other powers, is the most important among them.
The key point.
Shisun Rui was not a roundabout person. He could see that Wang Yun's character was destined not to be a good ally for a long time. It was only because there was no one in the court that he had to cooperate with him. Now the emperor showed him his ambitions and past.
Shi Sunrui did not think too much about the talent of a person and his intention to win over him. Because he also had his own selfish motives. As long as it did not violate the interests of the court, it was blameless for him to consider himself as a minister: "Chen Rui is shallow in intelligence and resourcefulness.
Short, your Majesty wants to achieve great things, and he will not give up on us, but is willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses."
"Okay, okay, I have one more good help!" The emperor smiled while stroking his hands. Wang Bin and Yang Qi stepped forward to help Sun Rui and the others up, offered kind words of condolences, and met with each other again. They each decided on the role of the emperor's cronies.
The emperor spoke warmly for a while, and asked Sun Rui and Yang Zan to slowly tell Wang Yun and their plans that they had made earlier. First, he assassinated Dong Zhuo by surprise at the palace gate, then pardoned the accomplices to calm people's hearts, and then let Lu Bu take command.
The army and its plans are foolproof.
Scholar Sun Rui had already drafted several edicts according to Wang Yun's instructions. The content was that Dong Zhuo had rebelled against the law and ordered Lu Bu and others to kill him and hold him accountable. The others were pardoned, and the army near Chang'an was placed under the command of Lu Bu. The emperor
It was for this reason that he came and said, "I was just about to talk to you about the military power."
After speaking, the emperor winked at Wang Bin. When Wang Bin saw it, he retreated to the door and brought the people outside the door in. Shisun Rui took a closer look and was shocked. This person was no one else, but Bei.
Palace gate Sima Gaishun.
Gaishun, dressed in military uniform, came in from the dark night outside. He first glanced at Shisun Rui, and then bowed to the emperor: "Sima Chenshun of Beigong Gate bows to your majesty!"
The emperor nodded, asked Gaishun to stand up, and said to the scholar Sun Rui: "Since the beginning of the chaos, Dong Zhuo has annexed all armies and appointed private individuals. The five majors of the Northern Army have official titles, and the establishment of Hu Ben Yu Lin has been weakened. The so-called attacker has the right to fight first.
, there are now about ten thousand troops stationed in the capital, led by Zhonglang generals Xu Rong, Hu Zhen, Yang Ding and others. I want to organize Xu Rong's three thousand soldiers and horses into the Yulin, using Xu Rong as the Yulin.
Zhonglang General, Gaishun was appointed as the Yulin Supervisor. Hu Zhen and others had 6,000 men and horses, who were incorporated into Huben. Yang Ru, the former Jingzhao Huya Camp Bird Strike Commander Yang Ru, was promoted to Huben Zhonglang General, and Wang Bin, the commander of Che Commandery, moved to the Northern Army's Lieutenant Commander.
, my servants shot Yang Zhong to supervise the troops in Guanzhong. If you two have no objections, just draft the edict for me. The seal happens to be at the Shangshu table tonight, so there is no need to look for the seasonal order."
