Daming Super Dimension Company, President Zhu Yuanzhang!

Chapter 174 The terrifying eunuch of the Tang Dynasty!

A capable traitor, if used well as an emperor, is a good sword.

The records related to Zheng Zhu end here, but the eunuch affairs are far more than that.

"The dilemma of powerful eunuchs did not end after Wang Shoucheng's death." Xiao Ran went on to say.

Li Ang frowned, "Once Wang Shoucheng dies, and then deal with his gang members, how can the eunuchs still have power?"

Even though he had been wary of eunuchs for many years, Li Ang didn't know much about the eunuchs' followers.

"What you think is too simple."

Xiao Ran was speechless, "Two consecutive emperors died in the hands of eunuchs. Haven't you understood that the power in the hands of eunuchs is not only in the hands of a few people."

"I know very well that the eunuchs control the imperial army, let alone the matters in the palace. But now most of them are Wang Shoucheng's gang members. Now that I have obtained the military power, why should I fear a group of eunuchs." I still don't think what Xiao Ran said, Li Ang Give your opinion.

Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows, "After Wang Shoucheng died, something happened. You almost became the third emperor to die at the hands of eunuchs."

Hearing this, Li Ang was shocked.

Li Shimin couldn't believe how many eunuchs with evil intentions his descendants had raised.

"Tell me carefully."

Xiao Ran said: "Qiu Shiliang and Yu Hongzhi, you shouldn't be sure to completely defeat them."

The two names made Li Ang's face change slightly. He really couldn't do anything about them.

"They don't get along with Wang Shoucheng, but they can't be completely used by you. Even if you use them to kill Wang Shoucheng, the eunuch's threat is not over."

"These two people are the lieutenants of the eunuch Shence Army's left and right guards. They hold great power in the Shence Army. After you killed Wang Shoucheng, you wanted to touch them. Therefore, there was the Manna Incident recorded in history."

When Xiao Ran said this, he didn't pause for too long. He shook his head slightly and sighed.

"It's a pity that the imagination is beautiful, but the ending is cruel."

"After Wang Shoucheng died, Zheng Zhu and Li Xun discussed that after Zheng Zhu went to take office, they would select hundreds of strong men and train them as personal soldiers. In the ninth year of Taihe, when Wang Shoucheng was buried, they discussed that Zheng Zhu should be the first to I ask you to approve the escort of the funeral, and take this opportunity to bring your own soldiers there. At the same time, I also tell you that all the eunuchs below the lieutenant of the Shence Army Guards will be ordered to attend Wang Shoucheng's funeral. When the time comes, Zheng Zhu will close the tomb door and order his soldiers to cut it down. Kill the eunuchs and kill them."

"Originally, this matter had been planned. Li Xun believed that all the credit for this was due to Zheng Zhu, so he immediately conspired with his colleagues to recruit strong men as private soldiers in the name of taking office, and mobilized the soldiers of Han Yue's commander, Zheng Zhu first The first step is to kill the eunuchs in the capital, and then get rid of Zheng Zhu."

Li Ang's face sank, "Extremely stupid."

When nothing is certain, start striving for credit.

"It is indeed stupid. This person must not be used." Li Shimin said coldly.

Xiao Ran continued: "At the appointed time, Li Ang came to the Zichen Palace, and Han Yue took the initiative to say that on the pomegranate tree in the backyard of Zuojinwu Yamen, there was nectar falling last night, which was an auspicious sign. As soon as this was said, all the officials reported to Tang Wenzong Congratulations. Li Xun and Shu Yuanyu immediately urged Li Ang to go and watch. Li Ang first ordered the prime minister and officials from Zhongshu and Menxia provinces to inspect the nectar in Zuo Jinwu’s backyard. After a long time, Li Xun reported that it was not real nectar. "

"Li Ang was shocked, and immediately ordered Qiu Shiliang and Yu Hongzhi to lead the eunuchs to inspect again. After the eunuchs left, Li Xun summoned Guo Xingyu and Wang Fan to receive the imperial edict. Wang Fan was too nervous to go, and only Guo Xingyu accepted the edict. And the private people they recruited Hundreds of soldiers stood outside Danfeng Gate waiting for orders. Li Xun called them in advance to accept the order to kill the eunuchs. Unexpectedly, only Guo Xingyu's Hedong soldiers came, led by Wang Fan. Ning Bing didn’t come.”

He couldn't help but scold him. What Li Shimin couldn't tolerate was this kind of fool, "Li Xun is stupid, and his subordinates are even stupider!"

Li Ang looked dejected, knowing that the follow-up would inevitably fail miserably.

"Li Xun has done more stupid things than these."

"Qiu Shiliang led the eunuchs to inspect the manna and noticed that Han Yue was very nervous. Suddenly the tent in the courtyard was blown up by the wind. Qiu Shiliang was shocked when he saw the soldiers holding weapons in their hands and ran out in a hurry. The soldiers guarding the gate wanted to close the door, but Qiu Shiliang scolded him. , the door latch failed to close. When Qiu Shiliang and others ran back to Hanyuan Hall, they reported the mutiny to Li Ang and were seen by Li Xun. "

Xiao Ran showed a speechless expression, "Li Xun shouted to protect the emperor, and the eunuch persuaded the emperor to return to the palace. He then brought up a soft sedan, stepped forward to help Li Ang get into the sedan, broke through the silk screen behind the palace, and rushed north. As a result, Li Xun grabbed the soft sedan and said that he had not finished his petition and the emperor could not return to the palace. At this time, Jinwu soldiers had already arrived at Hanyuan Hall. "

"He wants me to die!" Li Ang was so angry that he slapped his hand on the table, with murderous intent in his eyes.

No one knows whether he really wanted Tang Wenzong and Li Ang to die, but Li Xun really gave Li Ang a hard time this time.

"At the same time, the patrolling soldiers of Jingzhao Mansion rushed from the east, and Li Xiaoben led the Yushitai entourage from the west. They killed the eunuchs together. The eunuchs were bleeding profusely and shouted injustice. The soft sedan entered the Xuanzheng Gate, and Li Xun Li Ang still held on to the soft sedan and shouted more urgently. The eunuch Xi Zhirong took the opportunity to knock Li Xun to the ground. After Li Ang entered the Xuanzheng Gate, the gate was closed immediately. Li Xun saw that the emperor had entered the harem and immediately replaced him. He wore the green official uniform of an official and fled on horseback, shouting loudly along the way that he was being demoted for no fault of his own, and he escaped for the time being. "

"But Qiu Shiliang and other eunuchs knew that the emperor was involved in Li Xun's conspiracy, and they spoke rudely in front of Li Ang."

"Li Xun's plan failed, which completely angered the eunuchs and officials. Qiu Shiliang and others ordered their subordinates to lead 500 forbidden soldiers each, armed with knives, to attack the traitors from the palace. Wang Ya and others fled in embarrassment. Zhongshu and Menxia provinces More than a thousand soldiers and officials from the Jinwu Guards scrambled to escape out the door."

Xiao Ran sighed again, "It's a pity that the gate was closed, and more than 600 people who had no time to escape were killed. Qiu Shiliang ordered that all the palace gates be closed, and the thieves were searched and arrested. The officials and soldiers of each department, as well as the common people who sold wine and All the merchants were killed, and corpses were everywhere in the palace. The seals, maps and household registration files of various departments, the curtains of the government offices, and office equipment were destroyed and looted. "

"At this point, Qiu Shiliang and others have not stopped yet. They ordered the Shence Army to send out cavalry out of the city to pursue the bandits, and at the same time conducted a large-scale search in the capital. Shu Yuanyu and Wang Ya were caught up by the cavalry and arrested, and were escorted to Zuo Shence Army中. The old Wang Ya could not bear the torture and admitted that he had conspired with Li Xun and wanted to make Zheng Zhu the emperor. "

There was silence in the hall.

Li Shimin's expression was solemn, and from Xiao Ran's words, it could be seen that the eunuch's power had reached an uncontrollable level.

If you want to completely deal with the eunuchs, it is impossible to do so only with the power of three melons and two dates in Li Ang's hands.
