Chapter 2428: The firewood is removed from under the cauldron, and the drought demon is born

Several people sat cross-legged again in a clean hall. After washing, there was no blood on their faces.

However, the hands of several people were slightly trembling, because in order to vent their emotions, they hysterically stomped on Guo Sheng's body. They did not do it to torture the corpse, but to reach an agreement.

Realizing the crisis, they reaffirmed their determination:

He Jin, not only do we need to suppress him, we also need to... kill him!!!

Otherwise, who knows who will be the target of the next attack. He Jin's "demonstration" completely aroused their murderous intent.

Originally, according to the intention of Emperor Ling of Han, he wanted to make Liu Xie the emperor, but they compromised with General Empress Dowager He and made Liu Bian the emperor. Everyone lived in peace and jointly fought against the camp of the great aristocratic families. This way, they had the best of both worlds.

However, I don’t know if He Jin took the wrong medicine, he actually did this.

After a long silence, Zhang Rang spoke first: "He Jin's killing was to intimidate us. I just asked Queen Mother He, her attitude was unclear, she just tried to appease us. I think, in the end, He Jin will not be punished..."

"Humph! The He family just wants to establish their authority."

"Not only that... they also want to control all military power. Killing Jian Shuo is just the first step!"

"Since they are pressing us step by step, we need to reassign a capable commander to lead the Xiyuan Army and the Imperial Guards. This is the basis, and we cannot mess up!"

"I recommend my adopted son Xu Ying. No, now he can be called Zhao Ying. He has already been admitted into the ancestral temple of my Zhao family."

"His son and daughter also have the surname Zhao and are trustworthy."

"Well... he is very good at commanding the swordsmen and axemen. His recent series of actions are very satisfying." Zhao Zhong strongly recommended his adopted son.

"Then let him lead the swordsman army and the imperial guards. As for the army in Xiyuan, select a good general again." Zhang Rang made the final decision.

"How about Gongsun Zan?"

"No, although this man is brave and has the talent of a commander, he is close to Lin Mu and is not a good choice. After all, his family is also a powerful one."

"We still need to be on guard against Lin Mu."

"Speaking of Lin Mu, when we asked him to come to the capital before, he refused by saying he was going to suppress Zhang Ju?"

"Yes... Lin Mu's problem cannot be solved for the time being."

"He is just a rootless duckweed. As long as we deprive him of his authority, he will be just a small general. We will not deprive him of his authority for the time being, but just keep one step. He is still so arrogant and ignorant. Humph..."

"He is just a coward. He has always been afraid of the divine capital Luoyang and the imperial court, and dares not stay there for long. Although he occasionally shows his edge, it is only for a moment before he becomes soft again. What a coward, haha..."

"Lin Mu is just a dog that can't be tamed. There is no need to pay attention to him. Our most urgent task now is to deal with He Jin... and His Majesty..."

"Let Liu Bian sit tight for now."

"Prince Xie, we must also keep it under control. If there is any change, we will depose the eldest and enthronize the youngest!!!"

"As long as we control the military power, everything will be easy."

"Yes...it would be best if we could control all the military forces in the Divine Capital Luoyang..."

"The army defending the city, the army of the West Garden, the five battalions of the Imperial Guards, the Imperial Guards, and the Sword and Axe Army... these four groups must be under our control. At least three of them..."

"Then the captain of the city gate will be replaced by our people?"

"In exchange... we are taking action now, and Empress Dowager He and He Jin dare not say anything. They are in the wrong now."

"Hehe... we can also stimulate the Dong family's power to compete with the He family. Both families are foreign relatives, and the Empress Dowager Dong is still influential. Let them fight it out first."

"The plan of driving away the wolf and swallowing the tiger is a brilliant one..."

"Besides that, let's see if we can infiltrate the five battalions of the Imperial Guards. If we can bring all of this army under our command, then the power of the Dragon Court... the right to speak, will all be in our hands..."

"Okay, then use some tricks to take over the Fifth Battalion of the Imperial Guards!" Zhang Rang shouted in a serious tone.

"Yes... In the treasure house, there are tools for instigating rebellion and confusing people. Let's use them!"

"If that's true, then we can have whatever we want! Hahaha! By then, He Jin, Empress Dowager He, the great noble families, Lin Mu, and the strange people will all be garbage!!"

Everyone laughed as if they saw a bright future.

"The most direct way is actually to kill He Jin. We can just trick He Jin into entering the palace, ambush him with the Sword and Axe Army, and chop him into pieces?" Zhao Zhong said dimly.

He always felt that He Jin would cause trouble again, and he felt uneasy.

"Don't do this for now. I always feel that there are other forces instigating all this... I am most afraid of those hypocrites... We have to weaken them first..." Zhang Rang narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke in a sharp voice.

"It seems that I need to use my trump card." After a moment of silence, Zhang Rang suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice.

"You want to use that?" Zhao Zhong seemed to understand what Zhang Rang was talking about.

"That's right. Although the spiritual energy in Shenzhou is much richer at the moment and the dragon vein of the imperial palace is also prosperous, the land is poor and can be manipulated." Zhang Rang said slowly.

"The move that the late emperor did not complete?" Li Song said suddenly.

"That's right... The late emperor had long ago told us to stockpile food, and then make that move to cause chaos among the noble families!" "Li Song, you are in charge of this plan, how is it going?" Zhang Rang asked dimly.

"The three thousand three hundred and thirty-six granaries have been full for a long time and have been waiting for this plan to be implemented!!" Li Song suddenly stood up, bowed and said excitedly.

He is the one who came up with the plan and has always been very supportive of this plan. However, the previous emperor died before it could be implemented. Now, it is up to them to carry it out!

Although it would make the people of the world suffer and even cause countless deaths, so what? It would not only weaken the nobles, but also curb the arrogance of the foreigners, and also... make their pockets bulge. It would kill three birds with one stone!

"Okay! Let's do that risky move!" everyone said in unison.

"Congratulations!" Immediately, everyone raised their glasses of wine to celebrate the implementation of the plan.

Just after three bottles of wine, Xu Ying hurried in.

"My lords, Guo Sheng's mansion has also been completely looted!" Xu Ying reported with a grim face.

"What? Guo Sheng's mansion has also been looted? So quickly? No... this is impossible!!!" Everyone's smiling faces turned cold in an instant.

They had just killed Guo Sheng. Although their bodies had been chopped into pieces, the residual heat hadn't even dissipated yet, and their mansion had already been robbed?!

"Only someone who really knows about this would do this. Could it be... He Jin again?" Zhao Zhong was a little confused at this moment.

How dare they loot so blatantly, treating the mansion of the Ten Eunuchs as roadside food and harvesting it at will? ! ! !

The Ten Eunuchs were furious and wanted to rush into the General's Mansion with weapons and kill everyone!

"Okay, let's implement those plans first. Also, we'll continue searching for the imperial seal." Zhang Rang suppressed everyone's emotions and spoke in a serious tone.

"Yes!" Everyone responded and started to leave.

Finally, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, and Xu Ying, who was reporting, stayed in the hall.

"I don't know whether they are from a powerful noble family or an in-law, but they have set their sights on the resources in our mansion. In this case, we cannot do as they wish. The resources and wealth stored in our mansion must be transferred." After hesitating for a while, Zhang Rang spoke in a low voice.

"I have had this idea for a long time." Zhao Zhong was overjoyed when he heard Zhang Rang agree.

Zhang Rang's meaning, in addition to transferring those resources and wealth, also has another meaning, which is that everyone can appropriately... put some of the resources and wealth into their own pockets.

"Seventy percent of the resources will be transferred to Beimang Mountain. I have already ordered people to secretly build a treasure house there. This treasure house is very large and can accommodate a lot of resources and property." Zhang Rang said slowly.

Zhang Rang’s meaning was very clear: 70% of the resources were public property, and the other 30% were their private property.

If Emperor Ling of Han was still alive, they would definitely not dare to do this. But now, the new emperor Liu Bian doesn't even have the qualifications to know...

"Ziye, you are in charge of this matter!" Zhang Rang turned around, looked at Xu Ying and instructed in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Xu Ying didn't say much, just nodded and accepted the task.

However, as he lowered his head, a gleam of brilliance flashed in the depths of his eyes: "This is really sending meat to the tiger's mouth!"

……

Lin Mu received reports on the fighting in the divine capital Luoyang as soon as possible.

After dealing with Jian Shuo, the next plan came out. The next plan for the Great Wilderness Territory was the same as what the Ten Attendants had planned, which was to let He Jin and Empress Dowager He fight against the Dong family first.

Among them, the most important characters are He Jin and Dong Zhong!

At this moment, Dong Zhong was the General of the Cavalry of the Han Dynasty. He was also a relative by marriage, and a very senior one at that.

Among the maternal relatives, the most famous ones in the last three generations were the Dou family, then the Dong family, and then the He family.

The Dou family is a thing of the past. After that, it was the Dong family of Empress Dowager Dong, the mother of Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong. Because of Liu Hong, the Dong family rose to prominence. After that, it was the He family of Empress He, now Empress Dowager He.

Dong Zhong, the General of the Cavalry of the Han Dynasty, and He Jin, the General, had conflicting interests, and their relationship was not very good.

In the harem, there were also conflicts between Empress Dowager Dong and Empress Dowager He.

In short, the Dong family and the He family have been pushed into the fire!

After Lin Mu finished reading the intelligence, he ignored it. The plan had already been launched and there was no need for him to pay attention to it. He just had to wait for the results.

Lin Mu, who wanted to relax, suddenly heard two huge announcements in his ears:

"--Ding!"

"——Announcement from Huaxia District: The drought demon is spreading its evil, metal and stone are melting, the ponds are cracking, and crops are no longer harvested. Due to special reasons, the land in Huaxia District is affected by the power of the drought demon, the celestial phenomena in Shenzhou are disordered, the [poverty of the land] is deepening, and the maturity period of basic crops (such as rice, wheat, etc.) is not affected by the increase of spiritual energy, and they will mature at least once every three months."

"..."

"..."

"--Ding!"

"——Announcement from the Huaxia region: The drought demon has appeared. Players are requested to kill it as soon as possible. Otherwise, the land of China will be desolate."

"..."

"..." (End of this chapter)
