”Grand Manager, the current Army of Montenegro s, the Union State s, the Qingzhou's armies, attack from all sides, and the You, You, You, Qing, Ke, and Xu provinces have suffered greatly from this. As long as the imperial government passes down the decree to pacify the rebellion, wouldn't the Lord General be able to go south? ” The Zhang Banxian had already thought of a plan for Zhang Le, and said solemnly.
”How about this, tomorrow you guys send a few soldiers to the Luoyang to report the news, you have to let the entire Luoyang City know, rider general Yang Lin won the battle there, annihilated over a hundred thousand Urushion, and pacified the rebellion of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun.”
Zhang Jean stood up and took a few steps back and forth in the hall. He knew very well in his heart that the critical moment of life and death had arrived. The Grand General Ho Jin still had a military camp to hide in, and other than his family's servants, there was almost no one else to protect him.
”We will think of a way to speak up for the Empress Dowager He and see if we can get him to take back his testamentary edict. Then, in the name of calming down the rebellion, he ordered Yang Lin's army to head south. But once you get to the Yellow River, those small fries will not dare to act rashly. ”
The Imperial Palace was abnormally quiet. Whether it was the eunuchs or the palace maids, they all walked very quietly, afraid of making any noise. From time to time, he would even turn his head back to look. No one knew which corner a group of soldiers would suddenly rush out and kill them all.
Even as the noble empress dowager, the Empress Dowager He was still on tenterhooks. In the early morning, she had already ordered people to bring Zhang Jean, Zhao Zhong, Song Dian and the others over. Actually, it was nothing much, it was just to accompany her and talk. Right now, the only person she could rely on was these old eunuchs.
”Normally, these scholars would shout out louder than anyone else, but when it came to Guan Jian, there was nothing useful that they could do.” Thinking about those scholars, Empress Dowager He became angry. Although Yuan Zhong was already a Tutor, he couldn't help him in any way.
”Esteemed Empress Dowager, it's not like you don't know that those scholars only talk normally. Even if we send them to deal with Jian Shuo, they won't have the guts to do so! ” Zhang Jean snorted coldly. At this point, he did not forget to mock them.
”Sigh …” Empress Dowager He sighed and shook his head helplessly. Although they taunted the scholar-officials for their conversation, they themselves were also taunting them. This group of women and eunuchs, who could subdue Jian Shuo and the other West Garden Army?
”The Youzhou is victorious …”
”The Youzhou is victorious …”
”The Youzhou is victorious …”
Just as Empress Dowager He was heaving a long sigh, dozens of cavalry of Youzhou rushed in. As they shouted along the way, many of the people on the streets stopped, and many of them had a pleased smile on their faces. These days, the Luoyang City had been too repressed. The happy news of the Youzhou's great victory was just enough to ease everyone's depressed mood.
When these cavalrymen arrived at the palace, they were stopped outside the palace, only to send their tigers and three heads into the palace. The eunuch guarding the palace door ran a few steps and knelt in front of Empress Dowager He, ”Esteemed Empress Dowager, this is Youzhou's victory! Riding the chariots of generals and Arrowhead, in one go, destroyed more than a hundred thousand Wuhuan cavalry, and pacified the rebellion of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun. ”
”Oh …” It is indeed a great victory. ” Empress Dowager He did not reveal any joy. Perhaps she did not know the meaning of Youzhou's victory at all, as her eyes were only staring at the palace, staring at her son's throne. She waved her hand and lightly said, ”I got it. You can go now. Don't forget to reward those soldiers who reported to us.”
”Wait!” Suddenly, Zhang Jean, Zhao Zhong, Song Dian and the other eunuchs stood up, seeing how Empress Dowager He dealt with the great victory so casually, their hearts could not help but sink. After all, he was the daughter of a butcher. He had no sense of politics at all. They bowed deeply towards the Empress Dowager He and sang in unison, ”Congratulations, Empress Dowager! Empress Dowager Xi! ”
”What is there to be happy about?” The Empress Dowager He was baffled. She was too worried about sitting in the palace and not even knowing if she would live or die, she was depressed in her heart, what good news could it be, could it be that you eunuchs who have to die still dare to make fun of me?
”Empress Dowager, ever since Han, the Hu Zi has repeatedly invaded and invaded the Central Plains. Although the imperial government has sent out troops to defend the enemy many times, the number of people who destroyed over a hundred thousand Hu Zi s at once are few and far in between. Dong Zhuo had been in the West Cold for dozens of years, and was unable to pacify the rebellion in the West Cold, but the rider general Yang Lin had destroyed the rebellion in the Urushion, so the northern border would no longer have any worries! ” Zhang Nan raised his head and said to Empress Dowager He.
