Chapter 159 Planning a Conspiracy
Chapter 159 Planning a Conspiracy
Zhang Yu was not surprised that Empress He would help him.
The conflict between Zhang Yu and He Jin was all because of Zhang Rang.
Zhang Yu is just a battlefield for him to fight with Zhang Rang, and Zhang Yu himself has no direct conflict with He Jin.
But Empress He didn't have any bad feelings towards Zhang Rang and others in her heart, on the contrary, she was more protective.
When Liu Hong was dying and He Jin wanted to kill Shi Changshi, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others begged Empress He, but He Jin actually begged Shi Changshi to protect them, thus killing He Jin.
It can be seen that Empress He has no ill feeling towards these eunuchs.
Zhang Yu came out of the palace with joy.
Obtaining complete autonomy in government affairs from Emperor Liu Hongna, as long as Empress He speaks for him, He Jin will not interfere in his military affairs.
This means that Zhang Yu has complete military and political independence, and Kuaiji County has become a small kingdom.
He Jin is a great general, commanding the world's soldiers and horses, and Zhang Yu has a military position, so He Jin is completely in charge of him.
"I didn't expect that a bottle of wine and a box of cosmetics can be exchanged for such a big profit."
Zhang Yu also feels that the world is impermanent. Although he was surprised to enter the palace this time, he was also happy.
Back in the yard, Zhang Yu said to Dian Wei: "Evil, destroy all these wine-making things and clean them up. We will set off back to Kuaiji County the day after tomorrow."
The matter in Luoyang is over, it is already February 185, and Zhang Yu has long wanted to go back.
Dian Wei took orders to go to work.
Yuan Mansion
"When Zhang Yu entered the palace, he met His Majesty first, and then the Queen. He heard that the Queen wanted to kill him before, but later she treated him very well. In the palace, he not only gave him a seat, but also rewarded him with cakes."
Yuan Kui closed his eyes, knocked on the arm of the chair with one hand and said.
Several members of the Yuan family sat next to Yuan Wei, including Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.
"Uncle, it is normal for His Majesty to reward Zhang Yu, but the Queen suddenly changed her attitude towards Zhang Yu. Could it be He Jin's order? Is He Jin trying to win over Zhang Yu?" Yuan Shao asked repeatedly.
"Uncle, this Zhang Yu must be taught a lesson, otherwise our Yuan family's face will be lost. How will we order other aristocratic families to let our nephew go? We will definitely lose Zhang Yu's face." Yuan Shu also said aloud.
After Yuan Shao heard this, he chuckled and said, "Gaolu, we have many ways to lose Zhang Yu's face, but it's useless. Before Zhang Yu lost face to our Yuan family, we reversed Zhang Yu's loss of face." , not only is it useless at all, but it also shows that our Yuan family is incompetent."
Yuan Shao's tone was flat, and he didn't mean to make fun of him, but Yuan Shu was furious after hearing this, and then questioned, "Then what do you say? Do you have the ability to kill Zhang Yu?"
"Of course you can kill him if necessary." Yuan Shao said suddenly with a murderous look on his face.
After Yuan Shu heard the report, he was angry, because he knew that he had lost to Yuan Shao again, and he was very upset.
Yuan Kai had been listening quietly, but suddenly his hands stopped, and then he said: "You should inquire in many ways immediately, I want to know the true attitude of the queen and He Jin, if Zhang Rang and He Jin join forces, our family will be completely destroyed. Suppressed."
Everyone stood up and took orders.
Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao walked out quickly and went to inquire about the information. Both wanted to find out valuable information before the other.
One night passed, and the next day Zhang Yu and the others had already started to pack their things, and the soldiers went out to buy a large amount of dry food.
It’s a long way back to Kuaiji. Although supplies can be provided along the way, dry food and tents must be prepared before departure.
"Report, my lord, the General's Mansion sent a gift, wishing the lord a smooth journey on the road."
Zhang Yu was tasting wine with Dian Wei in the courtyard when a soldier suddenly reported.
"He Jin's gift?" Zhang Yu was taken aback for a moment, then laughed.
He Jin sent a gift, indicating that Empress He became a lobbyist, and it was effective.
"Who sent it?" Zhang Yu asked.
The soldier replied: "An ordinary soldier, leave after delivery."
Zhang Yu nodded. Although He Jin expressed goodwill, it was only for Empress He's face, so he only sent an ordinary soldier to deliver it, and left after delivering it.
"Never mind him, as long as He Jin doesn't trouble me in the future."
After figuring this out, Zhang Yu was relieved that in the future, the military and political power in Kuaiji County would be completely up to him.
There is no need to pay taxes, and no one cares how many soldiers and horses there are.
Zhang Yu put aside the matter and continued to taste wine with Dian Wei, but Yuan Wei and his family couldn't sit still.
At this time, Yuan Kai was in his study, and there were only him, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu in it.
"Sure enough, He Jin reconciled with Zhang Yu and sent someone to give him a gift." Yuan Kai said coldly.
"Uncle, this matter is no small matter. Although Zhang Yu is a small person, he has made great contributions. If he acts as the middleman between He Jin, Zhang Rang and others, and the two sides reconcile, our family will never have a bright future." Yuan Shao said.
Yuan Shu also stated, "Zhang Yu must be eliminated."
There was a cold light in Yuan Kai's eyes, his eyes were deep, and he didn't speak for a long time.
"Zhang Yu has obeyed the emperor's order. We can't do anything to him, otherwise we will be harmed." After a long time, Yuan Wei put away his eyes and said.
The room fell into silence. To get rid of Zhang Yu, there must be no reason to fall into other people's hands, otherwise there must be big trouble.
"Uncle, I personally led the family's dead men to intercept him. I heard that Zhang Yu will leave Luoyang soon. If we attack him on the way, it will be difficult for others to think of our Yuan family. At worst, we can wait until they are far away before attacking him. ." Yuan Shu said.
Yuan Kai nodded slightly after hearing this and did not speak.
Although Yuan Kai didn't agree with this method in his heart, it was the last resort. If it didn't work, then he could only use this method.
"Uncle." At this moment, a light flashed in Yuan Shao's mind, he thought of an idea and said, "Yuan Zhan and Zhang Yu had a great feud outside Guangzong City, although he is a member of our Yuan family, he can't implicate our Yuan family. "
After hearing this, Yuan Wei's eyes grew cold, and then he clapped his hands and said, "What a great idea. We have already given up on Yuan Zhan. If he can make great achievements, we can use him again."
When Yuan Zhan came back, he spent all his savings to save his life, but he also lost the support of the Yuan family, making it difficult to continue climbing up.
"Tell Yuan Zhan that if this matter is settled, I will guarantee that he will be restored to his post within three years and promoted to a higher level within five years." Yuan Kai said.
"Don't worry, uncle, my nephew will make arrangements now." Yuan Shao hurriedly took up the work and retreated.
Yuan Shu was extremely depressed, and Yuan Shao stole the limelight again.
Yuan Shao's plan was very simple. Give Yuan Zhan an official position and let him lead troops temporarily, and then give him some dead soldiers and let him lead people to intercept and kill Zhang Yu.
If it fails, it doesn't matter, because Yuan Zhan and Zhang Yu have long had a personal enmity.
This can only show that Yuan Zhan retaliated because of personal enmity, and has nothing to do with the Yuan family.
If it succeeds, the Yuan family has a way to save Yuan Zhan's life, and Yuan Kai has promised to restore him to his post.
At this time, although Yuan Zhan spent all his savings to keep his official position, if he did not obey Yuan Kai's words, he might lose his official position at any time, or even be questioned.
Yuan Zhan had no choice.
