Chapter 2256 How to proceed with the difficulty of punishing officials!
What's more, at this moment, can Lin Mu really trust Kuai Yue? ! Could it be He Jin or someone else's work?
No matter what, this is a thankless job.
Kuai Yue is a smart man, and he must know the pros and cons, but he still stands here, presumably because he has his own ideas.
Maybe... this is also a way for him to test Lin Mu!
What he said about betraying the name of his master was not his, but Lin Mu's. The meaning was also very obvious. It was Lin Mu who ordered him to work under He Jin's subordinates. Lin Mu was the one who was despised for doing such dirty things. Pastoral.
In the current environment, few people will go to other people to arrange detailed work. Even Lin Mu rarely uses this move because it will bring bad reputation.
However, when Dong Zhuo rebelled against the Dragon Court and the heroes began to fight for hegemony, it was different. It was a kind of wisdom, although it was not aboveboard. But even so, few princes and dragon lords use this trick because the variables are too great.
Take Lin Mu as an example, he would not dare and would never let Guo Jiaxun, You, Zhicai, or even Zhang Hong wait for someone else to be an undercover agent!
Of course, this kind of plan... It is not impossible that Dahuang Territory has not implemented it... Among the Yuan family and other powerful people, there are...
His reputation is filthy, so why should he, Lin Mu, be afraid of this...
Let's go back to the prison.
Xun Shuang took a deep look at Kuai Yue. What it represents is not that simple. If it were a counselor with a simple background like Xi Zhicai, Xun Shuang would agree immediately. Even if he might be an undercover agent sent by the enemy, he would agree first. But Kuai Yue is different...the background behind him is complicated.
In particular, when Lin Mu communicated with him, he expressed that he was quite cautious about people and things in the Jingxiang land. Not only Lin Mu, but also the current emperor Liu Hong was quite helpless there.
After pondering for a while, Xun Shuang sighed softly and said immediately: "Lin Mu is my closed disciple. I will not accept any more students."
When Kuai Yue heard this, he did not feel surprised or angry. Instead, he looked at Xun Shuang calmly as if waiting for his follow-up 'but' words.
"but……"
Sure enough, it came.
"You can go to Zhiyu Inn, No. 78, Zhuque Street, to pick up a gift." Xun Shuang said slowly.
When Kuai Yue heard this, he was shocked and thought to himself: "Sure enough, this scholar can make decisions for Lin Mu."
The consequences of taking him in are not small. It is not the consequences of a famous historical general. That is a trivial matter to Lin Mu. What is important is the consequences of the family power involved behind it.
If they are not careful, Lin Mu's power may be occupied by them... So be cautious and cautious. As a great scholar from Yingchuan, not far from Jingxiang, Xun Shuang knew these things very well.
"Then I will accept your kindness." Kuai Yue clasped his fists and bowed.
Hearing this, Xun Shuang nodded and said nothing.
"In this case, this junior will leave first." Kuai Yue also simply left immediately after achieving his goal.
Seeing Kuai Yue turn and leave, Xun Shuang said quietly: "Did someone guide you here?"
His voice only sounded in Kuai Yue's ears. When Kuai Yue heard this, his departing figure paused for a moment, and then disappeared around the dark and damp corner.
After Kuai Yue disappeared, the space around Xun Shuang rippled, and something slowly dissipated...
Afterwards, the originally quiet Tianlao was filled with wails and groans, some of which were mixed with words of injustice...
…
Kuai Yue quickly left the prison and returned to the carriage.
"How is it?" came a question from inside the carriage.
"According to what Xun Shuang said, Lin Mu has been ordered by His Majesty to not easily lead more than one troop back to Luoyang, the capital of the gods, unless there is a major event to the heavens... He will maintain a neutral attitude towards our actions." Kuai Yue responded immediately.
What Kuai Yue said was not discussed with Xun Shuang at all.
"It's a big event that reaches the sky... I wonder if Xun Shuang's beheading is a big event that reaches the sky? Jie Jie..."
"Original, no, no. If Xun Shuang is really touched, and his whole body is affected by a single move, the scholars of Yuzhou, Yanzhou, Jingzhou, and even the scholars of Jizhou and Qingzhou will be affected. At that time, if there is no such thing as His Majesty Suppressing the characters... I'm afraid it will... have too much impact, and the gains outweigh the losses." Kuai Yue said anxiously.
The person in the carriage is Yuan Shao.
"How to deal with the alien feeling?" Yuan Shao asked with great interest.
"Just put him under house arrest. It will not only constrain Lin Mu, but also stabilize the Xun family's connections."
"Actually, it's easy to deal with Xun Shuang. You can chop off his head for any reason. For example, although His Majesty will no longer pursue the case of the party's imprisonment, but if the old score is brought back and His Majesty is unconscious and unable to take care of it, then it will be feasible. But chop it off. The effect is different from putting him under house arrest." Kuai Yue said in a condensed voice.
"Even when the time comes, Xun Shuang can be responsible for some of the cause and effect..." Kuai Yue pointed out with sadness.
Yuan Shao was overjoyed when he heard this. Kuai Yue's analysis was very popular with him. When he asked about Kuai Yue, he was actually testing him. He only became interested when he saw it.
"Xiandu, are you willing to come and eat green under my command?" Yuan Shao asked in a low voice.
Eating green, eating the emperor's green is a matter of loyalty to the emperor.
Yuan Shao is poaching!
In fact, he also knew that Kuai Yue had a complicated background and that the interests he represented might be different from those of the powerful gentry he was a member of, but he dared to use them.
"This... this... I'm already eating green food in the General's Mansion..." Kuai Yue hesitated and said with a bitter smile.
"It doesn't matter. He Jin is brave but has no plans. He is indecisive in doing things. If he knows the small but plans for the frontier, it is difficult to achieve great things." Yuan Shao said meaningfully.
When Kuai Yue heard this, he sighed in his heart. The people inside were not cohesive, and they were still doing things that went against heaven. This was a dangerous situation!
"However, with our promotion, great things can be accomplished." Yuan Shao added.
"Benchu has such a grand view of the overall situation, Mingzhu. However... I have to bow to the general as instructed by my elders. I cannot change the door or wall easily. Please forgive me." Kuai Yue shook his head and firmly rejected Yuan Shao. .
"It doesn't matter...it doesn't matter...there will be plenty of opportunities in the future." A meaningful smile appeared on Yuan Shao's face.
"Let's go... go back and report to the general... This is the report document." Yuan Shao gently handed a document to Kuai Yue.
Good guys, the report documents have been prepared in advance. In other words, no matter what, follow their wishes...
After a quick glance, Kuai Yue looked at Yuan Shao with a wry smile and said, "This..."
"No problem, just follow these reports." Yuan Shao waved his hand.
"promise!"
Afterwards, the two returned to the General's Mansion to report to He Jin.
After hearing Kuai Yue's report, He Jin was furious, smashed the wine glass in his hand to the ground, and smashed the table in front of him.
"You dare to threaten me with an eunuch, Xun is disgusting! No wonder he would marry an eunuch, a shady person. If he hadn't been shadowed by his ancestors, he would have been as dirty as a concubine in a brothel." He Jin said angrily.
The marriage he was referring to with the eunuch was actually Xun Yu's marriage.
Xun Yu's wife, Tang, was the daughter of Tang Heng, a regular attendant in the imperial court. She originally married Fu Gongming, but Fu Gongming refused and married Xun Yu instead. This is one of Xun Yu's worries.
Originally, Xun Yu first surrendered to Yuan Shao. Later, he may have been criticized by some people and even Yuan Shao himself for this problem, which caused him to switch to Cao Cao. Cao Cao is considered a eunuch and will not use these as an excuse.
"General, according to the news from Tianlao's informants, the eunuchs communicated with Xun Shuang first, and even reinstated Xun Yu as the palace guard. They cannot win over them. Moreover, the power of the eunuchs has increased over time. It will get heavier and heavier. They have gradually escaped from His Majesty's control, like wild horses running wild, unstoppable. We must kill them before they can form a monopoly." Yuan Shao spoke earnestly and forcefully.
"If they really become powerful, all the power of Longting will be in their hands. At that time, we will be meat on the chopping board."
"Yes, General, I also recommend that you act early." In the audience, Wang Yun, a great scholar, spoke out.
"Currently, my father is in charge of Jinwu, who controls the city defense army and guards the capital. The general is in charge of the five battalions of the army. Ben Chu is in charge of half of the army in the Western Garden. He has three wins over the eunuchs. He can punish the eunuchs and clear the emperor." Yuan Shu said loudly.
After Xun Shuang was raped, Yuan Feng became Zhi Jinwu. In fact, Yuan Feng was demoted.
Behind Yuan Shu, Du Ji followed.
"General, please raise the flag. We will fight to the death to kill the evildoers and restore peace to the world!"
Everyone agreed to take a tough stance and kill the eunuch by force.
However, He Jin, who was the backbone, sighed when he heard everyone's dissuasion.
"Although His Majesty's coma has been confirmed by the Queen, if we do something like that, there is no guarantee that His Majesty will not hold us responsible after he wakes up. It's difficult..." He Jin sighed and hesitated.
"Even if your Majesty holds you responsible for the matter of eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor, we are willing to bear the responsibility and let the general stay out of the matter. How about that?" Wang Yun said forcefully.
How can this be done? It is really impossible to support the wall with mud. If the eunuch is killed, doesn't he have the most power? ! Your Majesty will definitely be more wary of him by then.
As long as it's not too much and it lasts for a while, it's fine.
Moreover, even if His Majesty was unconscious and unable to exercise the authority of the Dragon Court, they could not stop them from killing the eunuchs with their troops.
This is a great opportunity!
"General, it is currently confirmed that Lin Mu is still a minion of the eunuchs. If they lead the national defense army to the capital, it will be terrible. We must act decisively, otherwise, there will be a big disaster!" Yuan Shao used Lin Mu again. Where's the excitement?
"Yes, Lin Mu has been promoted with outstanding military exploits along the way. His military talents are said to be equal to those of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun. His soldiers are extremely brave. Coupled with Lin Mu's wolfish ambition, once the gods are introduced, The capital is Luoyang, which will bring disaster to the world." Wang Yun preached from the side.
"That's right. Lin Mu, the city is thick and dark, and he is different from us. He dared to directly kill San... and kill Fan Zeng and others. He is at odds with the general and disrespects the general. This is treason. If he enters the capital, the general will be in danger! The world will be in danger!" Yuan Shao stared at He Jin closely and said quietly.
Yuan Shao originally wanted to directly say that Lin Mu killed 300,000 Yu Linjun and Fan Zeng, but because the matter of Yu Linjun was a secret, many people here did not know, so he jumped to say it.
"Hmph! If Lin Mu enters the capital and directly uses force to control the divine capital Luoyang, he will not become a powerful minister. He might directly massacre the palace, murder his majesty and the prince, and directly proclaim himself emperor! That guy Lin Mu is a stranger and disloyal. Unjust." Yuan Shu said in anger.
He directly pushed Lin Mu's threat theory to its climax.
He Jin was shocked when he heard this. He didn't know what he thought of, and a look of panic appeared on his face.
"This matter... let's discuss this later... I will go to the palace to see the queen first..." He Jin looked gloomy, waved his hands, then stood up and left the banquet.
When everyone saw this, some sighed, some slapped the table in frustration, and some simply left the table.
It is difficult to punish officials, so how can we proceed?
