The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 90
The next day, Empress Dowager He came to court and ordered He Jin and Tai Fu Yuan Kui to assist the government and record the affairs of the minister.The rest who have the merit of following the dragon will all be rewarded.

Some were granted marquis status, and some were conferred titles. Yuan Shao was bestowed the highest reward because he jumped the highest and made the most effort.

Yuan Shu and Cheng Yuanzhi were invisible the entire time, so they only received 50 taels of Wenyin.

Coming out of the palace gate, Cheng Yuanzhi weighed the money in his hand, and brought up the old story again: "Gaolu, do you want to raise?"

Yuan Shu frowned and thought about the situation in the court today, but he didn't notice any hidden dangers, but in view of his understanding of Cheng Yuanzhi, he said cautiously:

"Then add a little less? How about 10 taels?"

10 taels, which is equivalent to a little... Cheng Yuanzhi was silent, and couldn't help asking: "Gaolu, tell me the truth, how much is your family property now? I'm asking about silver."

The implication is that food, fields, manors, servants, equipment and other materials are not counted.Only gold and silver treasures are counted.

Yuan Shu laughed, shook his head and said, "I haven't taken stock of that."

After a pause, he continued: "However, it should be more than a million taels."

fine……

It’s just over a million taels of silver. I can earn this amount even if I work hard for three to five or eight years...

This amount should be equivalent to twice the property of Yuan Shao's family.

After all, Yuan Shao was just born and Yuan Cheng died, and Yuan Cheng died early, so the family's property must not be rich.Yuan Shao was adopted by Yuan Cheng, so even if his own father and Yuan Kai helped him later, the income would not be as good as Yuan Shu's.

Well, the gap between me and Yuan Shu, the number one noble son of the Han Dynasty, is not too big.

That's two Yuan Shao's assets missing.

In short, the two Yuan Shao plus me must have more money than Yuan Shu.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yuanzhi felt a lot more balanced.

At this time, Yuan Shu suddenly said: "I'm talking about gold."

Fuck!Cheng Yuanzhi was shocked.

Calculated at 25 taels per catty, one million taels of gold is equivalent to [-] catties of gold!
Although the gold in this era is actually brass, that's not a big deal, forty thousand catties!

Among them, most of them must have been inherited from Yuan's family. Is this the treatment of a legitimate son...

It seems that regardless of the era, it is necessary to fight for a father.

Cheng Yuanzhi's eyes were red, and he returned to the mansion unhappy, and found Zhang Xiaoyu to calm him down.

While suppressing shock, his thoughts diverged.

Among the many warlords in the late Han Dynasty, most of those whose fathers were not good enough were defeated early. Those who remained, such as Cao Cao (his father was a Taiwei), Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Liu Zhang, Liu Biao, Sun Ce, Sun Quan, and Ma Chao, all relied on their parents to make a fortune.Even Liu Bei has the name of a Han family clan.

From this point of view, the heroes of the late Han Dynasty are actually a battle between a group of rich second-generation warlords fighting for their fathers.

Cheng Yuanzhi instantly felt extremely grateful for his decision to recognize Yuan Wei as his adoptive father.

In the blink of an eye, five days later, the situation inside and outside the court hall is still calm.

.........

On the sixth day, Dahan Palace.

Empress Dowager Dong announced that Zhang Rang and others came to the front and discussed: "He Jin's sister, I promoted her at the beginning, and she is what she is today. Now her child succeeds the emperor, and the internal and external officials have become her confidantes. The authority is getting stronger. We How will it be?"

Zhang Rang rolled his eyes twice, and said, "She has a natal family, don't you, the Empress Dowager, have no natal family?"

"Your Majesty can come to the court and listen to the government behind the curtain; you can make the prince Xie the king; Jiaguo's uncle Dong Zhong is a high-ranking official and in charge of the military power; use us more: great things can be achieved."

Empress Dowager Dong was overjoyed upon hearing this.

The next day the court was established, Empress Dowager Dong issued an edict, conferring the title of Prince Xie as King of Chenliu. Dong Zhong was promoted from General of Hussar to General of Zuoqi, and he presided over the affairs of the court together with Zhang Rang and others. "

All the officials in the court were in an uproar.

Because in the past, He Jin replaced Liu Bian as the master of the house; later, the Empress Dowager He came to the court to listen to the government and sealed off all the officials; therefore, the move of the Empress Dowager Dong was not considered to be overstepping the law.

Since both uncle and mother can make decisions for the new emperor, then her grandmother also has power.

Who dares to say no to her seniority and qualifications?
After the court was over, when he saw Cheng Yuanzhi who was waiting outside with a smile on his face, Yuan Qiu wept mournfully, feeling very remorseful.

No matter how rich he was, losing 20 silver would still hurt him.

"Hurry up on the road, give me the money like going home, maybe you want to renege on your debt?"

Cheng Yuanzhi stared closely at the dawdling Yuan Shu, urging the latter repeatedly.

Because he has no official, he is not qualified to go to court today.The last time I was able to go to court, I went there as an aide of the general.

Yuan Shu glared at him angrily, and speeded up.

He secretly decided in his heart that he would never bet with Cheng Yuanzhi again.

Bet again and chop your hands!
Chop two!
……

Empress Dowager He saw that Empress Dowager Dong had exclusive power, so it was convenient for her to hold a banquet in the palace, and she invited Empress Dowager Dong to the banquet.

When the wine was half full, Empress Dowager He stood up and raised her glass to respect: "Empress Mother, you and I are both women, and it is inappropriate to participate in the government affairs."

"In the past, Empress Lu was in power, and more than a thousand members of her clan were slaughtered."

"We have to learn from the lessons learned from the past, and I hope that the mother will listen to the words of the son and minister."

Empress Dowager Dong sneered: "Heh...heh...are you threatening me? Why didn't you warn yourself with this when you were in court?"

"You are very jealous. My son was incapable of holding things when he was alive. He killed a king and beauty before, and now he relies on your son as the king. How can he advance with your brother? You come to lie."

"If you want to talk too much, I will call the general Zuo Cheqi to cut off your brother's dog's head!"

Empress Dowager He got up angrily, and retorted: "Your minister is trying to persuade you, why is Queen Mother so angry?"

Empress Dowager Dong continued to sneer and said, "You are a junior of Tugu, what kind of knowledge do you have, and you are worthy of good advice?"

Between the words, the atmosphere gradually became tense.

Seeing that two tigresses were about to fight, Zhang Rang and others, who were munching on melon seeds and watching with gusto, quickly put down their snacks, put away their horses, divided them into two groups, and persuaded the two women to go back to the palace.

And fan the flames in private.

On the other side, Zhang Rang and others persuaded: "Empress Dowager, it's getting late today, why don't we have a decisive battle tomorrow..."

Over there, Guo Sheng and the others said to the Empress Dowager He: "The Empress Dowager is quite tired today and is not in a good condition. It is better to go back and recharge your batteries, and we will compete tomorrow!"

Empress Dowager He returned to her bedroom, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she was, she called He into the palace at night, and told her elder brother what happened during the day.

He Jin returned to the mansion and summoned the three princes overnight to discuss countermeasures.

He was born as a butcher, and his political micromanipulation ability is zero. When encountering such a thing, he can only ask others for advice.

Among the three men, except for Cai Yong, the other two are old-fashioned officials with top micromanipulation skills.A few words and a few words will give you a good plan, and offer advice to He Jin.

He Jin rejoices.

In the early morning of the next day, a court official made a statement: Empress Dowager Dong was originally a vassal concubine, so she should not live in the palace for a long time.

With the imperial decree, He Jin moved quickly.

On the one hand, they sent people to send the Empress Dowager Dong;

Outside the gate of Dong's mansion, the soldiers shouted and shouted very urgently, and they were about to break into the door, and it was tough.

Dong Zhong knew that there was no way out at this moment, so he killed himself in the back hall.

The family mourned and wailed, and sent out the seal and ribbon of the chariot general, and the soldiers outside the house scattered.

A storm comes and goes quickly.

With little effort, He Jin killed Jian Shuo first and then Dong Zhong, firmly controlling the internal and external situation in Luoyang.

There was no two in the limelight for a while.

In the general's mansion, the flowing water banquet was ready, and all the staff members gathered together to raise their glasses to congratulate He Jin.

He Jin stroked his beard and applauded repeatedly.

However, I am not educated. When I am proud of this life, I can't think of other good words to express my happiness except applause.

Cheng Yuanzhi took the opportunity to raise his glass and approached, and said: "General, this situation, this situation, this moment, I think it can be summed up in one word."

He Jin was taken aback: "Oh, what was it? I would like to hear more about it."

Cheng Yuanzhi turned around, raised his glass with one hand and squinted at the crowd, pointed at the sky with the other, and said majesticly:
"Who else--"

Because his expression was too hysterical and his voice was a little broken, Cheng Yuanzhi's face was very ferocious, and a lot of wine in his glass was spilled.

But this does not prevent him from being aggressive and domineering at the moment.

The people below were stunned by his funny behavior and looked at each other in blank dismay.

He Jin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and deliberately asked Cheng Yuanzhi to withdraw this sentence and speak for himself.I also felt that this move was not too straightforward, so I gave up.

After pretending to be aggressive, Cheng Yuanzhi quickly returned to his original position.

Yuan Shu leaned over and said in a low voice, "Your brother's actions are too arrogant..."

Cheng Yuanzhi glanced at him and retorted: "What you said is wrong. Don't you think you must pretend to be proud in life? If you don't pretend, you will be struck by lightning."

"Who said this?" Yuan Shu was a little confused: "Why have I never heard of it?"

"I said……"

"..."

No matter what, Cheng Yuanzhi's exaggerated performance still attracted many people's attention. While He Jin was trying to persuade him to drink, everyone in the hall frequently looked over and whispered.

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao whispered to each other, the former said with disgust on his face, "You really are a Lizi, but you are so arrogant."

Cao Cao thought so, and nodded in agreement.He and Yuan Shao were often hated by Cheng Yuanzhi, with such personal grievances, how could he be pleasing to the eye?

The overall situation outside the palace is stable, and there is a victory.

The dark tide surged in the palace.

Zhang Rang, Duan Gui and other ten permanent attendants saw that the lineage of the Empress Dowager Dong had been abandoned, so they befriended He Jin's younger brother He Miao and his mother Wuyang Lord with gold and silver treasures, and went to the Empress Dowager He's place sooner or later to pay their respects, flattering and flattering him as much as possible. thing.

As a result, the ten permanent attendants were favored by the Empress Dowager He again, and regained their prestige.
