In terms of succession to the throne, Hanling Emperor Liu Hong should still be considered lucky as he had two princes who survived. When he died, his first son, Liu Bian, was fourteen years old, and his Crown Prince Liu Tong was nine. As long as Jian Shuo did not take out Hanling Emperor Liu Hong's testamentary edict, there was no doubt that the eldest son, Liu Bian, would inherit the throne.

Thus, even if Liu Bian became the emperor and he himself became the empress dowager, the Empress Dowager He was still extremely worried. Hanling Emperor's mother, Queen Dong was still living in the palace, and Queen Dong's nephew, Dong Zhong, was currently a hussar general, only second to Great General.

Empress He knew that Jian Shuo was waiting for the right moment. As long as he captures and kills He Jin in one move, he would take out Hanling Emperor's testamentary edict and cripple Young Emperor Liu Bian in name and reestablish the prince alliance as emperor once more. It was precisely because of this that the dignified Grand General Ho Jin had always been hiding in his own military camp and did not dare to show his face. He did not even dare to attend Hanling Emperor's funeral.

"Military Advisor, the reason I said that the situation of the Luoyang is very tense is because of this." Wu Feng frowned and said worriedly: "Even though the New Emperor has succeeded to the throne and is in charge of the government, Jian Shuo, who holds the military power, holds the Spirit Emperor's testamentary edict, and has a good relationship with the Spirit Emperor's mother, the Queen Dong. Furthermore, the nephew of the Queen Dong is the current hussar general, and he also holds the military power. As long as they were willing, they could launch a bloody mutiny at any time. And Grand General Ho Jin can only hide in his own camp, unable to give Empress Dowager He any support at all. "

And today, Empress Dowager He felt even more humiliated. hussar general Dong Zhong became more and more arrogant, and even the eunuchs in the palace started to submit themselves to him. The Queen Dong also interfered with the political affairs of the country. Just as the Empress Dowager He stopped him, he scolded angrily, "The reason why you are so arrogant now is because you are relying on your brother He Jin! If I order hussar general to cut off He Jin's head, it would be a piece of cake! "

Empress Dowager He was overwhelmed with shock. He had nothing to say, so he could only hide in his own bedroom and cry. Surrounding her were Zhang Jean, Zhao Zhong, Song Dian and some other eunuchs who were envious of Jian Shuo's power. This was not because of how loyal Zhang Jean, Zhao Zhong, Song Dian and the rest were, but because they had helped the Empress Dowager He kill the King's Association's biological mother, Royal Beauty. Even if they wanted to rely on the Queen Dong, it was impossible for the Queen Dong to accept them.

"Military Advisor, who do you think we should look for in the Luoyang City?" Wu Feng shook his head, and said with a wry smile: "Who among the Empress Dowager He s will be the last? If we enter the wrong temple gate, we will be facing a disaster in the future. "

The Queen Dong was precisely the mother of the Hanling Emperor's Liu Hong. Because of her son becoming the Emperor, she was bestowed the title of Empress. But her son died, and she did not become Empress Dowager. She didn't like the Empress Dowager He in the first place, but now she hated him even more.

If you stand on the side of the victor, you will be following the right person, and you will be able to achieve great things. If you stand on the side of the losers, you will be asking for the wrong temple gate, and you will definitely suffer from retaliation. What awaits you will be the deepest abyss in the world.

"When I left the Youzhou, the Lord General had told me this before. The eldest son, Liu Bian is the legal successor to the throne, so we will definitely stay loyal to the eldest son, Liu Bian. " The Zhang Banxian did not need to choose, Yang Lin had already arranged a direction for him.

"What?" Lord General is still in Youzhou, so he already knows about the struggle between empires? " Wu Feng was shocked, all the palace battles that he mentioned had only just occurred in the past few days. Furthermore, the Zhang Banxian had already been on the road for a few days, so when the Zhang Banxian left, none of these battles had happened yet!

"The Lord General does not know about the struggle between the imperial government and the imperial government. He has only predicted that the succession of the New Emperor will lead to a fight between the imperial government and the imperial government. Furthermore, he had predicted that Jian Shuo and her group would be annihilated very soon. " The Zhang Banxian laughed, and then continued to speak mysteriously: "Let me tell you a secret, no matter if it is your external relatives or eunuchs, all of them will die in this battle."

"Ah …" This move had given Wu Feng quite a shock. If his relatives and eunuchs were to all perish, wouldn't the world be in chaos again? Since they are all going to perish, then we will just stand by the side and watch them perish. Wu Feng was not the only confused one, even Fei Hong, Liang Ming, Xin Ping and the others were confused.

"Fame!" We need a name! " Zhang Banxian laughed sinisterly, and said lightly: "You all have already known, before her death, Hanling Emperor issued a testamentary edict restricting Lord General. What we want now is a right to break this limit. A building is going to fall, but we need a building to rebuild it. "

The night in Luoyang City was very quiet, even stray dogs rarely barked. After a long day's work, the commoners went to bed early, and even the nobles did not dare to stay awake at night. No one could have predicted when a group of soldiers would suddenly rush out, and the streets were filled with a bloody storm.

The backyard of the Chief Eunuch, Zhang Jean, was a secluded path. Few people walked during the day, and it was much lonelier during the night. Many trees grew on the path, and they were lush and lush. On a moonless night, the road was eerie and scary. Tonight was good, though the moonlight was still faint.

Wu Feng was a frequent guest of Zhang Jean's home, in these few years, he did not know how much money he had sent over. He even used his own abilities to steal treasures from other ministers' families and gave them to Zhang Jean, who almost treated him as his trusted aide.

The Zhang family servants all knew who Wu Feng was, more or less, they had received his favor. Therefore, when Wu Feng led Zhang Banxian and Xin Ping into Zhang Ren's house, they were not obstructed at all, and freely made their way to Zhang Ren's back hall.

"Grand Manager, this is Mr. Zhang Ling, the advisor to the rider general, the rider general." Wu Feng casually walked into Zhang Jean's back hall, and paid his respects to Zhang Jean first, then introduced him to Zhang Banxian and Xin Ping who were accompanying him.

"Greetings Grand Manager." Zhang Banxian and Xin Ping walked over respectfully, and greeted Zhang Jean.

"Forget it." Zhang Jean waved his hand and looked at Zhang Banxian and Xin Ping with her blurry eyes. Actually, Xin Ping had come to Zhang Jean's house before, but he had never seen the Zhang Banxian. She smiled lightly: "I have long heard that there is a godlike Zhang Banxian at the side of the Rider General who is good at advising and advising him. Seeing you today, I can see that you truly have a bit of the demeanor of a transcendent being. "

"Grand Manager is too kind, I am only running errands for Lord General." "Thank you, Lord General, for your kindness and filial piety, I hope that you can accept this."

"I appreciate the general's kindness." Zhang Rong stopped smiling and a layer of frost appeared on his face, "All these years, you have been praising me for a lot of money. I know this very well. "However, we support the cavalry general, and we do not care about the money."

"Of course, of course!" Zhang Banxian understood what Zhang Jean meant, she immediately smiled and said, "Lord General has already told me, we will follow your lead. As long as Grand Manager gives the command, we are willing to serve Grand Manager with our all. "

"Then why did you come this time?" Zhang Guan looked at Zhang Banxian and asked calmly.

"Returning to the Grand Manager, following first emperor's orders, we have already exterminated the Urushion, and pacified the rebellion of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun." Zhang Banxian paused for a moment, then excitedly said: "This time, I came to Luoyang to report to the imperial government with Zhang Ju, Zhang Chun, and Chief Wu Huan's accumulated strange heads."

"It's a great honor to see a rider win the race." Although Zhang Jean said that it was a joyous occasion, he didn't have a single trace of joy on his face. Although reporting to the imperial government is a huge matter, there is no need for your Military Advisor to personally take action, right? "

"The reason why I have come this time is to report this matter to the imperial government. Secondly, we pay our respects to Grand Manager. " The Zhang Banxian laughed and said softly, "Lord General is only slightly over twenty years old. To be able to become the next Surveillance History in the imperial court, he is really too young. I hope that Grand Manager can mediate and let Lord General deal with Hu Zi in the northern border. "

Zhang Jean snorted and said coldly, "A rider general is indeed a fierce general, but he doesn't know how to conduct a war. He had won the battle, but he had lost the official. "Since the court is unstable, who would think that the north is stable?"

"Grand Manager, the more unstable the hall is, the more we need the stability of the Northern Frontier. If those Desert Hu Zi s were to take advantage of Darky Court's instability to invade the border, wouldn't that only add to the hardship for the imperial government? "

When she said till here, Zhang Banxian was actually a little angry, and her tone could not help but become a little heavier. All of you are fighting for power in the imperial court. Who would have thought that the border would be stable? All of you are only concerned about your own prosperity, who has ever thought about the peace of The people of the world?

"Grand Manager, Youzhou Army has annihilated Wu Huan in one go. His might shook the northern border, and no one dares to underestimate us, Youzhou Army. If Grand Manager brings the Youzhou Army to the outside, who would dare to disobey him? "

After talking for a long time, that was what Zhang Jean had been waiting for. What he needed now was an army. As long as he had an army, he would be able to do a lot. His gaunt face could not help but twitch, and revealed a slight smile: "This time, how many people did you bring to the Luoyang?"

"Grand Manager, our Lord General is a loyal subject who follows the law. Without the decree of the imperial government, why would he send a soldier out of the Youzhou?" Zhang Banxian raised her head and said solemnly, "As long as the imperial government gives the order, the army of Youzhou can go south."

These days, the Chief Eunuch, Zhang Jean, had been extremely annoyed. Although Jian Shuo was also a eunuch, he held onto the military power. He was not of the same heart as Zhang Jean, Zhao Zhong and Song Dian, and had completely pledged his allegiance to Queen Dong. If the Queen Dong and the rest were able to gain power, then in the future, wouldn't they be able to clear the debts that they had caused the death of the Royal Beauty?

On the other hand, Zhang Jean, Zhao Zhong, Song Dian and the rest did not have any military power, so they could only hide at the side everyday and sigh deeply. Although Yang Lin had been very good to him over the years, he, as a eunuch, had no right to transfer Yang Lin to the capital. Especially since Hanling Emperor had given them the testamentary edict, they did not dare to act rashly.

"Luring foreign troops into the capital is a taboo of the imperial government. I'm afraid the Minister of the Court would object." Having been in the palace for so many years, Zhang Jean was very clear about the laws of the imperial court. No matter how thoughtful he was, the Empress would probably not agree.
