Chapter 49: Holding Back (2)


Huang Wan stood up and rebuked loudly: "For the emperor to ask for peace from the rebellious ministers, it is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world.

There has never been such a ridiculous thing since ancient times.

Yuan Wei, Yang Biao, Ku De'er, etc., who have read the books of sages, actually asked the emperor for peace.

Don’t you feel ashamed that Your Majesty and the Queen Mother have spoken like this?

Since ancient times, people have humiliated their ministers and died.

If Dong Zhuo dares to touch a hair of Your Majesty and the Queen Mother, he will have to run over our corpses.

Humph?”

Yuan Shu, who had just been released by Dong Zhuo, stood up and said: "Master Huang, your back hurts when you stand and talk.

When the knife is put on your neck, I don't know if you are as tough as you are now.

Even if you use your body You have blocked Dong Zhuo's butcher's knife, and you are too fanciful to be able to make Dong Zhuo respectful to His Majesty and the Queen after you die."

Zhu Jun stood up and scolded Yuan Shu: "Yuan Gongzhu, what qualifications do you have to stand up and speak?

His Majesty asked you to escort Dong Zhuo to accept the Xiliang army.

It was better for you.

Not only did you not accept the Xiliang army, but you were caught by Dong Zhuo.

How come you, the fourth generation and the third prince of your family, have such a useless thing like you?

It is simply an embarrassment to the family, the court and your majesty.

Guard He Zai gave him a knife and asked him to commit suicide as a thank you to the world."

"You old thing, you!"

Yuan Shu was trembling with anger, pointing at Zhu Jun and cursing: "What qualifications do you have to say to me?

You have been blocked at home by Dong Zhuo's people and unable to take up the post of city guard, so that you let the city guard The army was controlled by Dong Zhuo" "That's enough."

Empress Dowager He slapped the imperial case fiercely and shouted sweetly: "It's so unbecoming to curse and curse in the court hall just now.

Lu Shangshu interceded for the two old generals.

The Ai family has decided not to pursue it anymore.

This matter cannot be mentioned again."

Yuan Shu, you controlled Dong Zhuo that day and had all the advantages, but you were captured by Dong Zhuo instead.

Tell me, did your Yuan family do it on purpose?

Otherwise, why didn't Yuan Shao accept the imperial edict and send troops to attack Dong Zhuo?"

Yuan Shu was startled, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, I am wronged, I am wronged, Dong Zhuo is too cunning, I accidentally fell into his trap, I definitely did not do it on purpose."

Yuan Wei couldn't stand any longer, and immediately stood up and bowed: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, I, the fourth and third prince of the Yuan family, are loyal to the court.

How could I deliberately ignore the important affairs of the court and ignore Yuan Shu's mistakes?

He must be punished, but I dare to guarantee with my life that he never did it on purpose.

We, the Yuan family, will never dare to join forces with the Dong thief to ask Your Majesty to remove Yuan Shu from the position of General of the Central Military Commission, and let him shut up at home and think about his mistakes."

Huang Wan shouted: "Yuan Wei, you think this matter is too simple and too easy.

Yuan Shu has made such a big mistake, and you just want to dismiss him from his guilt.

In the court these days, your Yuan family You always speak for Thief Dong.

Do you think your Majesty and the Queen Mother will believe that your Yuan family and Thief Dong are not in trouble?"

Yuan Wei pointed at Huang Wan and said angrily: "My Yuan family is the family of the fourth generation and the three princes.

How dare you slander my Yuan family like this?

You say that my Yuan family has something dirty with Dong Thief, then you can provide evidence.

If you take If you don’t provide evidence, I’m not done with you.”

Ma Rixi stood up and said to Liu Bian and Queen Mother He: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, now that we are facing a formidable enemy, I believe that stability should be the priority within the imperial court.

Only by concerted efforts of civil and military forces can we defeat Dong's thieves.

If Dong's thieves are not eliminated, , and the imperial court is constantly fighting with each other.

Wouldn't it give the Dong thieves an opportunity to ask Your Majesty and the Queen Mother to think twice?"

"I second the proposal" Kong Rong was the first to stand up and agree.

Several more ministers stood up and said, "I also second my opinion."

Empress Dowager He thought about Ma Rixi's suggestion, which made some sense.

The biggest enemy now was Dong Zhuo.

If chaos broke out inside the court first and the fighting continued, how could they concentrate their efforts to deal with Dong Zhuo?

She immediately agreed and said: "Yuan Shu, I will remove you from the post of Tiger Guard General.

You can go home and shut yourself up to think about the past.

You are not allowed to leave the house for a month."

Yuan Shu secretly glanced at Yuan Wei.

Yuan Wei nodded calmly, and then he said loudly: "I thank Your Majesty and the Queen Mother for your kindness."

After Yuan Shu exited the hall, Ma Rixi once again raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, I believe that the greatest thing in the world is the emperor's safety.

Now there is only one Yulin Army guarding the palace.

The number is enough, but the emperor's It's too dangerous to leave the safety to only one army.

It's not that I don't trust General Liu, it's not true.

If you don’t believe it, I think the Huben Army should be re-established in accordance with the regulations of the imperial court.

The Huben Army and the Yulin Army will jointly guard the palace.

It just so happens that the Yulin Army is over-staffed and half of the people can be divided to form the Huben Army. , and then re-appoint a person who is loyal to His Majesty and loyal to the court as the Tiger Guard and the Lieutenant General."

"I second the proposal."

A large number of ministers such as Zhu Jun, Zhang Wen, Kong Rong, Cao Cao, and Peng Bo stood up to express their second proposal.

Xun Yu, the guardian of the palace, said: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, should we wait until General Liu comes back to discuss this matter?"

Shang Shulang Zhong Yao also stood up and said with cupped hands: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, I also think that we should wait until General Liu comes back to discuss this matter.

Now General Liu is leading the army to attack Dong Zhuo, but the imperial court wants to divide his military power in the rear.

I Worry" "Why does he still dare to rebel?"

Yuan Wei shouted loudly, pointing at Xun Yu and Zhong Yao and shouted: "Who are you two, and what qualifications do you have to participate in the court meeting?"

Zhong Yao and Xun Yu were too young officials to raise their heads in front of these ministers.

They could only answer truthfully: "I am the official minister, Zhong Yao, and the palace guard ordered Xun Yu to pay homage to Taifu Yuan."

"Hmph, a small palace guard and minister can stand in the same court as the ministers of the dynasty.

How can you act like this?

Then the ministers can go up to speak to His Majesty and the Queen Mother. " Queen Mother He also felt that the rules could not be violated, so she immediately waved to Zhong Yao and Xun Yu and said: "You two, please stand down."

Zhong Yao and Xun Yu looked at each other, sighed secretly, and retreated.

"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, I think this matter should be decided early, otherwise it will easily lead to a big tail, and then it will be difficult to correct it.

And now Liu Chengguan has become a right general.

In just over a month, he has become a right general from a commoner.

The emperor's favor is so great, how can he not be satisfied?

Now Liu Cheng has another 20,000 soldiers and horses of the Northern Army.

Splitting the Yulin Army can just hit him and keep him from getting carried away.

Only in this way can he be controlled."

Empress Dowager He remembered that the only military power in Luoyang still on the court's side was the Yulin Army and the Northern Army controlled by Liu Cheng.

It was indeed too dangerous to have these troops and horses in his own hands.

She had also been with Emperor Ling for many years.

People who have been engaged in political struggles in the palace for many years do not understand the principle of checks and balances.

It is indeed unethical to split up the Yulin Army now, and it has the meaning of killing the donkey.

However, doing so can help Liu Cheng avoid being criticized by the courtiers. their attacks.

"Okay."

Empress Dowager He finally agreed and said, "Just divide the Yulin Army into two.

Now the Yulin Army has six songs.

Separate the four, five and six songs to form the Huben Army.

The subordinate officers of the Huben Army will also be from the Yulin Army."

Lin Jun was transferred from the army, as for the selection of General Hu Ben Zhonglang."

"Your Majesty, I believe that Kong Wenju is a descendant of the sage Kong.

He is famous, virtuous, and loyal to Your Majesty.

I recommend Kong Wenju to be appointed as the Tiger Guard and the Lieutenant General."

Peng Bo, Yilang, stood up and suggested.

Empress Dowager He also felt that Kong Rong was good.

Although he was not a military general and was a scholar, his loyalty was no problem, so she agreed: "Okay, I will appoint Kong Rong as the Tiger Guards and Lieutenant General":
