Xuande

Chapter 127 How dare you speak to me like this?
It was already the fifth day of the first month of the seventh year of Guanghe when Liu Bei learned of this.

The three dead soldiers sneaked all the way, hurried to Luoyang, and brought the news to Liu Bei, so that Liu Bei knew that his assassination plan had succeeded.

Liu Bei still doesn't know what changes the death of these three people will bring to the whole situation.

But he knew very well that the Taipingdao uprising, which could sweep over half of the Han Empire at the same time, would never happen again.

Except for Zhang Jiao, no one can order the Taiping Taoists in the eight states to revolt at the same time, and deal a heavy blow to the Han Empire.

The subsequent change in the situation was indeed completely different from the situation in Liu Bei's memory at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The situation in Luoyang City is completely different.

After the ancient literature school and the modern literature school fiercely attacked each other, they found that they could not do anything to each other. The battle between modern and ancient literature would not end for a while, and there would be no winner.

On the other hand, Dongyuan, led by Zhang Rang, kept arresting scholars for investigation on the grounds of investigating the assassination of Liu Hong. extremely dissatisfied.

Under such circumstances, although the scholars of the two schools could no longer cooperate sincerely, they really could not continue to endure the issue of eunuchs.

So Zheng Xuan and Yang Ci had a meeting, and the two sides decided to join hands temporarily, to deal with the eunuch's affairs first, and then continue to confront each other.

After the two parties reached a consensus goal, Sili Xiaowei, Tingwei and Yushi Zhongcheng jointly made a statement, complaining that the eunuch's behavior of arbitrarily taking people for investigation was too bad, and it was no longer a normal investigation, so he asked Emperor Liu Hong to report this case Hand it over to the three parties for joint investigation.

The three sides strive to find out the real culprit who assassinated the emperor within three months.

In addition, the three sides joined forces to impeach 25 trusted officials of the eunuch group, and the impeachment memorial rushed to the palace like a thunderstorm.

What's more, Sili Xiaowei Guo Hong directly used [-] armed men under his control to confront the Naren spies affiliated with Dongyuan.

The two sides collided with each other in the Luoyang market, face to face knife to knife, large-scale brawl, resulting in bloody incidents, both sides died because of this, the matter was very big.

This is an unprecedented fierce resistance incident, far beyond Liu Hong's previous imagination.

Liu Hong was very surprised when he saw that the resistance of the scholars was so strong. How could the scholars unite together again?

So he quickly summoned Zhang Rang to ask him why, Zhang Rang dared not say that he was too tyrannical to cause the collective resistance of the scholars.

Fortunately, Liu Hong seemed to have heard about Zhang Rang's behavior during this time, and he didn't quite believe his words, so he asked Liu Bei to ask why.

Of course, Liu Bei had nothing good to say, so he yelled at Zhang Rang and told Liu Hong that Zhang Rang had gone too far. The only way now is to close the case on camera and find a scapegoat to kill the matter. Engage in scholars.

Liu Hong was not happy, but instead of punishing Zhang Rang, he asked Zhang Rang to do what Liu Bei said and not to continue to do wrong things.

Zhang Rang was obedient and did not dare to argue, so he could only follow through.

He was obedient to Liu Hong, but he punched Liu Bei hard. After leaving the palace, Zhang Rang gave Liu Bei a good meal of Zaan output. Liu Bei was not to be outdone, and he was also an output of Zaan. Tongue dry to calm down.

"How many times have I told you that the current situation is hard-won. The goal of Dongyuan is to establish deterrence, not to randomly arrest and kill people. Dongyuan wants to become a serious court institution. What about you? You put Dongyuan As what?"

"It's your turn to teach me? How dare you speak ill of me in front of His Majesty, do you know the consequences of doing so?"

"Can you master Dongyuan without me? Can you have all this without me? You still scold me if you don't thank me?"

Liu Bei pointed at Zhang Rang's head with wide eyes and cursed angrily, "If the situation is as favorable to you as it is today, you should kneel down and thank me!"

Zhang Rang's face turned red with anger.

"Don't think that if His Majesty trusts you, I can't deal with you! There are many people who think this way in the past, but they all died in my hands!"

"Firstly, His Majesty trusts me; secondly, I am a member of the Han family; thirdly, I have a very high status in the school of ancient literature; fourthly, I never speak ill of others behind their backs. As far as these four points are concerned, if you can find someone better than me Good substitute, I straightened my neck for you to chop!"

Liu Bei pointed at Zhang Rang with rounded eyes: "If you can't find it, then listen to my opinion more before doing anything! Don't mess up the situation I have created with great difficulty! What should you do if you ruined His Majesty's important event?"

Zhang Rang was so angry that he pointed at Liu Bei's hand and kept trembling.

"How dare you speak to me like that?"

Liu Bei ignored him, turned around and left after scolding, leaving him with a lonely and proud back.

Zhang Rangqi's blood pressure soared, and he almost had a cerebral hemorrhage.

But a gust of cold wind blew by, and he calmed down inexplicably.

Yes, after fighting against scholars for so many years, Liu Bei is the first existence who can bring them such a substantial victory.

The situation in Luoyang City is so peculiar, all thanks to Liu Bei.

For the four points he mentioned, Zhang Rang asked himself that he really couldn't find a better substitute, especially the fourth point.

Facing his collaborators, he is open and aboveboard. He never speaks ill of others behind his back. If he speaks, he always speaks to his face, scolds to his face, and beats him to his face.

Dealing with such a person is much more reassuring than dealing with an unpredictable old silver coin.

But speaking of it this way, is Liu Bei actually an upright person?

Thinking about it this way, Zhang made himself feel absurd.

A person who is tantamount to betraying his master actually has an aboveboard demeanor?
Isn't this Liu Xuande afraid that he will reveal a little bit to the scholars so that his true face will be revealed to the world?

Zhang Rang thought about it for a while, but soon felt that this situation was unlikely to happen.

Judging from the nuclear relationship between eunuchs and scholars, it is slightly more likely that the story of Liu Xuande, the supernova of the ancient literature school who secretly helped them to harm the scholars, would be taken as a joke.

And what good would it do him, Zhang, to do so?

The more detrimental things are to the scholar, the greater the benefit to him.

Zhang Rang shook his head.

Dongyuan is temporarily silent.

Liu Hong gave Dongyuan some small punishments, but let's take into account that they are "protecting the monarch", so small punishments and big punishments, just to make sense of it.

Dongyuan also restrained himself a lot, and let go of all the people who should be released, but the right to investigate has not been let go, and the investigation is still going on.

In addition, Dongyuan also produced some [hard materials] to make everyone think that their investigation has made some very good progress, and they barely have an explanation for the situation.

But this time the concession still made Zhang Rang very unhappy. He worked hard and prepared to find another opportunity to open his eyes to the scholars.
