Zhang Banxian sighed and shook her head bitterly. Although killing Jian Shuo had stabilised the imperial government, the imperial court had been left in the control of the Grand General Ho Jin alone. History had repeated itself once again.

"The first emperor is not cold yet, they forced his mother to her death, and the Great General lost the will of the world!"

"So what if we lose our hearts? Now that the Grand General Ho Jin has covered the sky with one hand and the Crown Prince Liu Tong is isolated and has no one to support him, there will no longer be anyone who can form an alliance with him. "

Although Fei Hong and Liang Ming did not understand politics, they could tell that the Young Emperor was young. In the future, the person who would wield power in the imperial government would be the Grand General Ho Jin. As for his unpopular reputation, it didn't matter. How many of the powerful relatives in history were popular?

"You can't say that. Didn't the Lord General already instruct us? We cannot be close to eunuchs, nor to outsiders, but instead want us to befriend the warriors and generals of the Luoyang. This means that Lord General thinks that Grand General Ho Jin, decathlon Zhang Gang and the others will not last long. "

Yang Lin had a reason to keep the Zhang Banxian, Fei Hong, Liang Ming and the others in the Luoyang, and to keep them at a distance from the outer circle of the Luoyang. He wanted to sincerely befriend them and recruit some warriors and generals, even if they could not be recruited.

"It can't be …" That's what Lord General means? " Fei Hong looked at Zhang Banxian in confusion, as if he couldn't believe what he saw and shook his head. It was not that he suspected Lord General, but that he was worried that Zhang Banxian had misunderstood him. Now that the Grand General Ho Jin had a heavy soldier and great authority, who would dare to say half a word against him? Even Chief Eunuch Zhang Yang and the rest have done well by protecting their leader. Who would dare to oppose them? "

"Yeah, so that's what I thought too. But the reason the Lord General left us behind was to deal with the changes in the Luoyang. This means that within a short period of time, a huge change will definitely occur in the Luoyang, and it will be an earth-shattering change. "

With regards to Yang Lin's judgement, Zhang Banxian was extremely impressed, and Fei Hong, Liang Ming and the others had even more so believed in him. Since Lord General said that there was a change, then Luoyang would definitely not be at peace. The reason the Lord General left them here was probably to take advantage of the chaos in the Luoyang to recruit people and generals.

Just then, a carriage rushed over, and when it reached the Zhang Banxian and the rest's side, a scribe suddenly jumped down from the carriage, walked to the Zhang Banxian's side and greeted him with a cupped fist: "Sir, you are Mr. Zhang Ling, right?"

"It's me. May I ask who you are …" Zhang Banxian was startled for a moment. Her mind raced, thinking that since this person could call out her name, she must already know her identity. She immediately responded with a courtesy.

"My master wants to see you in the hotel ahead, please …" The young scribe said with an unquestionable tone and made a gesture to invite him in, inviting him to board the carriage. With no more than a few steps, your two attendants will be able to follow.

"Oh …" Who is your master? Why did you want to see me? " He hadn't even been in the Luoyang for half a month, who would know of him? Furthermore, this young scribe was so unyielding and arrogant, he was also somewhat disgusted by it.

"Won't you know the moment we meet?" The young scribe smiled slightly and arrogantly raised his head. Traces of disdain could be seen between his brows and his tone contained a bit of ridicule: "A strategists from grand hussar general wouldn't not even have this much courage, right?"

"Hehe …" You don't need to provoke me! " Zhang Banxian smiled lightly and glanced at the young scribe in disdain. However, he was still a little curious, judging from the actions of this young scribe, his family must be a big family. Didn't the Lord General ask him to befriend a scholar? Isn't this an opportunity? He suddenly waved his hand. "Let's go!"

"This is Master Yuan Yuan, Tutor of the dynasty. This is the Military Advisor, Mr. Zhang Ling." The young scribe brought Zhang Banxian to a room on the second floor of a hotel, and bowed deeply to an old man who was waiting there, then introduced them to each other.

"When the Dynasty Tutor... "Maybe it was because it was too shocking, Zhang Banxian did not have the time to react. To a poor scholar, Lunan's Yuan clan was something they could only dream of. Even if he saw the Empress Dowager He, she would not be so dazzled.

"I am Yuan Zhong." Yuan Xi nodded his head, but kept his eyes fixed on the half-immortal. Yuan Wu had seen a lot of these scholars from the Humble Class. Naturally, he understood the shock in their hearts. He waved his hand towards the young scribe and waited until he had retreated out of the room before he said to the Zhang Banxian: "Take a seat."

Zhang Banxian sat down and was actually at a loss as to what to do for a moment.

"If my guess is right, the one who killed Jian Shuo should be you." Yuan Yuan did not greet Zhang Banxian, but looked at him indifferently. Mr. Zhang Ling, as a scribe, you do have some guts, I am impressed. "

"Hehe …" The ones who killed Jian Shuo were two generals under the command of the hussar general. Zhang Banxian laughed and then relaxed. He raised her head and looked at Yuan Wu, his self-confidence had also recovered, "Master Tutor summoned me, what can I do for you?"

Yuan Yuan did not answer immediately. Instead, he raised the water cup, took a sip of water, then put the water cup down and slowly said, "The Hussar General Yang Lin killed Jian Shuo and stabilized the Imperial Court. It is indeed a meritorious deed. However, this also caused the Grand General Ho Jin to be in control of the imperial government. On the contrary, they are withdrawing and going north. Could it be that the hussar general is willing to see outsiders and eunuchs take control of the situation? "

"Master Tutor, the hussar general is sending troops south under the Young Emperor's decree. They are retreating to the north under the Young Emperor's decree as well. As for the Bureau of the Luoyang, it is not something that he, a general of the border army, should worry about. " Zhang Banxian was not convinced by Yuan Zhong's accusation.

"If that's the case, in the future, whether it's his wife, eunuchs, or other people controlling the imperial government, hussar general will not care about them." Yuan Yuan's eyes suddenly jumped, a ghostly light appearing in his eyes, he stared straight at Zhang Banxian, as if he wanted to see the depths of his heart.

"hussar general obeys the Young Emperor, obeying his orders. As long as they obey Young Emperor, hussar general will not make them their enemy! " Zhang Banxian thought of Yang Lin's orders and replied seriously, "Of course, hussar general would rather see the scholars manage the court and drive the traitors and villains out of the court."

"Really?" Yuan Yuan was startled and quickly sat up straight. He pondered for a while, and then said slowly, "The outer court and the eunuchs are in charge of governing the country. The descendants of the family, State County Bulai, have violated the law, looted the people, causing bandits and chaos in the world. If hussar general was able to call for help, the whole world would definitely agree, and all the outsiders and eunuchs would be executed, and the big man would be able to make a name for himself, hussar general's history will be known to all. "

"Master Tutor, like I said before, hussar general is just a general of the border armies. The Zhang Banxian was very clear that when she carried the Young Emperor's decree and did not cross the Yellow River, he would never interfere with the imperial government.

"Since hussar general has no interest in the imperial government, this old man will not force you." Yuan Xi nodded his head and said indifferently, "Please inform the hussar general that the external relatives and eunuchs are the two main malignant tumors attached to the body of the Darky Court, and this old man will get rid of them as soon as possible. Even if hussar general does not support it, it would be best if you do not oppose it. "

"I repeat again, the hussar general has no interest in politics." Zhang Banxian had already understood that Yuan Zhong was going to make a move against the outer court disciples and eunuchs. Furthermore, she did not want Lord General to intervene. The reason he had invited him here today, was because he wanted him to tell the Lord General so that they could do it freely.

Listening to his uncle's teachings, Yuan Shao hurried back to the Great General's Estate. Now that the West Garden Army already belonged to He Jin, Yuan Shao had officially become the Great General's Estate's aide, becoming the most capable and trusting subordinate of He Jin. No matter it was a small matter, He Jin liked to discuss with Yuan Shao.

After killing Jian Shuo, he had forced Dong Zhong and Queen Dong to death. But he claimed that he was sick and stayed in the Great General's Estate. He didn't even go to Hanling Emperor's funeral.

"Great General, the empress dowager has sent a decree today to expel Situ Ding Palace." Under the guidance of the servant, Yuan Shao walked into He Jin's inner hall, stood by his side with his hands down, and reported loudly to He Jin. Master Tutor felt that the situation had stabilized recently, it was best not to dismiss him so easily. What about Great General? "

"A 'Situ'? Forget it." He Jin couldn't be bothered to even think about such a small little Situ. Right now, what he was most worried about was still being a eunuch. Although Jian Shuo was dead, who knew if a second Jian Shuo would appear? He was afraid to go to the palace because he was afraid of being killed by the eunuchs.

Of course, Yuan Shao knew what was on He Jin's mind, but he did not say it out loud. Instead, he mentioned the matter of killing his eunuchs again, "In the past, when Dou Wu and the others wanted to kill their eunuchs, they were instead killed by their eunuchs because the news was leaked. The Fifth Battalion soldiers had always feared the power of the eunuchs, but the Dou clan had used them and brought about their own destruction. Right now, the two brothers of Great General command the Imperial Guards at the same time. The officers under you are all outstanding talents, they are willing to serve you and take care of everything else, this is a blessing from the heavens. The general should remove the calamity from the world in one go, and name the future generations, and never miss this chance! "

As a relative, He Jin of course understood that there would be conflict between the two. Dou Wu was an example of that, and he wanted to kill the eunuch as well. It was just that his sister, the current Empress Dowager He, was the same as Empress Dowager Dou back then.

On one side was his subordinates, the officials he had under him. They had instigated He Jin to kill the eunuchs time and time again, and on the other side was his family members, including his sister, brothers and even his mother. They were all against killing the eunuchs.

When He Jin was in power, he had listened to his hanger-on Zhang Jin's suggestions and openly recruited famous scholars from within the sea. In a short period of time, the Great General's Estate was filled with talented people, such as Yuan Shao, Wu Fu, Xun Shuang, Chen Si, Wang Yun, Wang Yun, Shentu Ao, Wang Qian, Liu Biao, Bao Xin, Chen Lin, Zheng Xuan, He Kuang, Feng Ji, Bian, Fu Dong, Zhang, and the others.
