Liu Bian had eaten outside the palace, reached for Queen Mother He's bowl and filled her with soup.
Empress Dowager He suddenly smiled, looked at He Jin and said: "Brother, don't worry, all your people will be picked clean. Once these people are removed, we will release Yuan Shao after Bian'er's enthronement ceremony. The family can live peacefully and peacefully, the whole world belongs to our family, there is nothing to quarrel about..."
Liu Bian said casually while serving the soup: "Then I will take the lead, with Da Changqiu assisting."
He Jin nodded heavily, unable to suppress his excitement, and his heart had already flown outside the palace.
The corners of Liu Bian's mouth raised slightly.
The twelve permanent servants are all over the world. If they want to be completely eliminated, I don’t know how many people they will offend.
Liu Bian gave the bowl to Queen Mother He and then to He Jinsheng. He glanced at Pan Yin and said, "If you have anything to do, I need to ask the general for advice. Do you understand?"
Pan Yin quickly bowed and said, "I understand, little man."
He Jin took the bowl handed over by Liu Bian without moving at all. Seeing that Liu Bian seemed to be sensible, he was in a happy mood, and said with a wide smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will make you a peaceful and happy emperor!"
Liu Bian sat down, served himself, and said, "My uncle said this, and I feel relieved. That's how it will be done. Later, I will ask Da Changqiu to sort out the list of party members such as Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, and others. Give it to uncle tomorrow."
He Jin was about to get up when he heard the words, when a small yellow door suddenly appeared outside the door and said: "Queen Queen Mother, Your Majesty, Huangfu Song wants to see you."
Liu Bian's heart moved slightly, and he looked at He Jin and said, "Uncle, I heard that you and Huangfu Song are not on good terms?"
He Jin moved his buttocks and sat back down, saying: "It's all trivial matters, not worth mentioning."
"Then let him come in." Liu Bian looked at Xiao Huang's door and said.
So everyone remained silent and waited for Huangfu Song to come over.
Huangfu Song was wearing official uniform and holding Huangfu Jianchang in his hand. As soon as he came in, he pushed Huangfu Jianchang to his knees on the ground, with a serious look on his face and said to the ground: "I have not been strict in teaching my children, and I have offended Your Majesty. I am here to apologize!"
He Jin turned around and saw Huangfu Jianchang kneeling on the ground with half of his face on the ground, his body wrapped in cloth, still bleeding and unconscious.
He was stunned for a moment, then turned back to argue with Liu: "Your Majesty, what is this?"
Liu Bian shook his head and said: "This Huangfu Jianzhang raped a common girl in broad daylight. I caught him and gave him a lesson. But he didn't hit him so hard."
Huangfu Song knelt on the ground and said with a hint of regret in his voice, "I was the one who beat him!"
Liu Bian looked at Huangfu Jianchang, who was soundless and bleeding on the ground, and thought he was really dead, right?
He Jin was in a good mood. He touched his beard and suddenly argued with Liu: "Your Majesty, Huangfu Song is an upright man and has always been known by his first name in the court. Please forgive him for his merits in defeating the Yellow Turban and give him a lighter sentence."
Liu Bian had never thought about dealing with Huangfu Song. When he saw what He Jin said, he went along with the situation and sold his favor, saying: "Since the general has begged for mercy, let this matter be forgotten. However, the children of the aristocratic families in the capital are indeed becoming more and more outrageous. . General, please immediately write down a charter and inform all the important families to strictly educate their children and take good care of their children!"
He Jin immediately stood up and said: "I accept the order! Resign!"
With that said, before Liu Bian could speak, he turned around and walked back.
Looking at He Jin's hurried back, Liu Bian could guess what he was going to do, and couldn't help but smile and narrow his eyes.
Seeing He Jin leaving so suddenly, Queen Mother He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly woke up and hurriedly got up and chased out, saying: "Brother, I will see you off, I also want to tell you..."
Liu Bian glanced at Pan Yin out of the corner of his eye and said, "You also go and see off the general."
"Yes." Pan Yin responded, jogging to keep up with Queen Mother He.
Liu Bian and Huangfu Song were the only father and son left in the room.
Liu Bian held the teacup and looked at Huangfu Song, who was still lying on the ground, and then at Huangfu Jianchang, who was still unconscious.
Just as he was about to drink tea, he paused and noticed that Huangfu Jianchang's eyes were blinking. Liu Bian observed carefully and found that Huangfu Jianchang was secretly sullen, as if he was trying his best to endure the pain.
Liu Bian raised his eyebrows, then smiled, took a sip of tea, and said: "Huangfu Qing, please get up and sit down. I have something to ask you."
Ever since he learned that Huangfu Jianchang was Huangfu Song's son on the street, Liu Bian had an idea in his mind. While eating, I did some simple research on Huangfu Song.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Huangfusong relaxed his frown and stood up slowly.
Perhaps because he had been kneeling for a long time, Huangfu Song stumbled on one foot as soon as he stood up and almost fell down. His expression remained unchanged, he supported the ground with his hands, stood up, and knelt down opposite Liu Bian.
Liu Bian put down his tea cup and looked at Huangfu Song.
There is a tuft of white hair on the top of his head, a long and thin face, dark skin, calm eyes, a straight nose, and slightly thin lips, giving people a feeling that he is not easy to get along with and is not allowed to enter strangers.
Liu Bian said: "Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong have been imprisoned. They confessed that they framed the Qing family. I will choose the opportunity to vindicate the Qing family."
Huangfu Song looked as usual and bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Liu Bian looked at him, pondered for a moment, and said, "What do the Qing family think of the Yellow Turban Army?"
Huangfu Song sat upright and kept an unprecedented serious look on his face. He said: "Your Majesty, don't underestimate the Yellow Turban Rebellion! The court must use all its strength, clear priorities, move in unison, use both suppression and appeasement, and use both grace and power. . Concentrate your forces to conquer Yuzhou first, and then divide your troops into Qing and Xu. At the same time, strictly control the powerful powers in various places. Do not trust counties and counties too much, let alone give them too much power. To destroy the Yellow Turban Army, the imperial court must be the main force..."
Liu Bian was just trying something, but he didn't expect Huangfu Song to say so much suddenly.
This also shows that as the commander-in-chief who almost destroyed the Yellow Turban Army, Huangfu Song was still very wary of the Yellow Turban Army and believed that the court needed to do its best!
Liu Bian nodded slightly. It was indeed the Yellow Turban Army that shook the foundation of the Han Dynasty.
"The Qing family believes that we should not trust the local government too much and cannot give them power?" Liu Bian asked after Huangfu Song finished speaking.
Huangfu Song said: "Yes. The Yellow Turban Rebellion is of course very harmful to our Han Dynasty, but the local aristocratic families need to be more vigilant. There are many famous families. As long as one person stands up, a hundred people will respond to the call, and followers will gather. In just a few days, You can recruit thousands or even tens of thousands of people. They have land and money, and are expected to have power. It is not the princes who are better than the princes. If the Yellow Turban Rebellion subsides, the imperial court needs to be wary of the chaos caused by the big families!"
There was a trace of shock in Liu Bian's eyes, and he looked deeply at Huangfu Song.
He never expected that Huangfusong could see so far!
The current aristocratic families of the Han Dynasty have indeed reached the point of getting out of control. The eighteen princes in history who challenged Dong have explained everything!
Liu Bian did not test any more and said directly: "The Qing family has outstanding talents and a long-term vision. I will restore the Qing family as generals of chariots and cavalry, and rectify the army of Sili, especially the soldiers and horses of the Eight Passes!"
Sili, also known as Sizhou, is a state centered on Luoyang and is a Zhili state. Therefore, it has a very special status among the Han states.
The so-called "Eight Passes" is because a few years ago the Yellow Turban army was powerful and wanted to attack Luoyang. The imperial court hurriedly recruited young men and established eight pass captains at the eight passes around Luoyang to defend Luoyang.
As the Yellow Turban Army declined and changed direction, the Eight Passes declined and became in name only, but the name remained.
Huangfu Song lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said: "Your Majesty, this is not difficult. The key lies in military pay."
The seemingly strong Han Dynasty was revealed to be extremely weak after the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out. The most important thing was that taxes dropped sharply and the imperial treasury bottomed out. They began to struggle with food all year round and even borrowed money to survive.
Liu Biancai touched the property of Zhang Rang and others and said: "After leaving the central government, within three days, we will first allocate 200,000 yuan, and one month, we will allocate you 30 million yuan, and then we will allocate you 30 million yuan every month." .”
One thousand coins is one min, thirty million coins, thirty thousand coins, equivalent to thirty thousand taels of silver, thirty thousand taels, which is quite valuable at this time!
Huangfusong looked a little surprised when he heard that he was coming out of the Zhongfu. He looked at Liu Bian more seriously. Immediately, he moved back a little, fell to the ground and said loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Liu Bian heard a tremor in his voice. The veteran seemed to be extremely excited about the money he received from the Central Government to raise troops.
