"However, Huangfusong and Zhu Jun, the train cavalry generals and hussar cavalry generals, are in the same position as the three princes. They hold high positions in the imperial court, and they have many subordinates to support them. They have a friendly relationship with the general He Jin. How can we deal with these two?"

"This matter will be handed over to Mr. Jian. Now that the Imperial Army is in the hands of Mr. Jian Shuo, it is most convenient to do this. You can spend a lot of money to buy the subordinates of Huangfusong and Zhu Jun, and let them go out to Tingwei's mansion. First, report that Huangfusong and Zhu Jun didn't have any actual merits when they encircled and suppressed the Yellow Turbans a few years ago, on the contrary, they suffered many defeats under the Yellow Turbans, and the credits they reported to the court when they came back were all fabricated by themselves."

"Not only that, but also to sue them for embezzling military rations, mistreating soldiers, and burning, killing, and looting the common people. It is even more abhorrent than those rebels. If their crimes are confirmed, the Holy One will be furious when he finds out."

"This plan is very clever. Huangfusong and Zhu Jun have many subordinates. I heard that they are usually very strict with their subordinates. I think there must be people who are dissatisfied with the two of them. You can inquire from many sources. After finding the right person, we can lure them for profit. , and after the promise is fulfilled, with a heavy responsibility, we will surely find many subordinates who are willing to lead the two of them."

"Not only that, but also let people spread rumors widely in Luoyang City. It is best to let the ministers of the court know, so that there will be courtiers who are dissatisfied with the two of them and will declare this matter, so we don't need to come forward Tell the Holy Majesty, lest we talk too much and arouse the Holy Majesty's suspicion."

"However, I think we should try it first and ask them to hand over some money. If they are willing to obey us in the future, it will save them from dying. The Holy Majesty ransacked the house, and we got nothing, and everyone knows that the Holy Majesty is a penny-pinching rooster."

"That's reasonable. Since the two of them have been fighting outside for several years, they must have accumulated a huge amount of wealth at home. If they are willing to share this wealth with us, then we can deal with them later, otherwise Just let them never turn over."

"Let us try this matter first. We will send a message to let them enter the palace tomorrow. Then we will stop them outside the Meridian Gate and ask them for money. If they are willing to hand it over, that's all. In the future, Xio will ask them to enter the palace to meet the Holy Majesty."

When Liu Bian learned of this, he was very shocked. He didn't expect that Shi Changshi would act so boldly, even discussing the plotting ministers among the forbidden army, which made him want to kill these people immediately.

However, Liu Bian still controlled his emotions. He knew that these people could not easily move them at present, because these eunuchs still have certain uses. Keeping them in check can restrain the great general He Jin, as well as those aristocratic families. .

If the ten permanent attendants were killed at this time, then the general He Jin would be even more unscrupulous in the court. With the support of those aristocratic families, he might launch a palace coup. Chang Shi came to restrain him.

However, Liu Bian could not just sit back and watch them plot to kill the two generals Huangfusong and Zhu Jun. After all, they had made great contributions in the encirclement and suppression of the Yellow Turbans, and they had a high status in the court, and there were not a few subordinates who supported them.

More importantly, both of them have expressed their support for Liu Bian as the crown prince before, and they are more loyal to the big man. Unlike the general He Jin, they have no dissatisfaction with Liu Bian and the big man, so he wants to protect them.

Liu Bian thought for a long time, and finally came up with a solution. That night, he controlled the organ beast and quietly left the East Palace, sneaked into the residences of the two generals Huangfusong and Zhu Jun respectively, and put a secret letter in their On the table, remind them to be careful of ten constant servants, they would rather lose money than fall into their ways, and at the same time be careful that someone under their hands will frame them.

After doing this, Liu Bian was still worried that they would be arrogant and might not believe the mysterious letter that suddenly appeared, so he sent the green starling to go outside Lingdi's window at night to whisper something, and Pass these words into Lingdi's ears in a dream.

This is also the special ability of the green mynah that Liu Bian has only discovered now. Apart from making a deafening scream like when a tiger attacked Liu Bian in Yingchuan, it also has the ability to transmit voices into other people's dreams. So Liu Bian immediately took advantage of it.

The next day, both Huangfusong and Zhu Jun saw the mysterious letter in their study at the same time, but their attitudes towards the above content were completely different. Huangfusong was the most arrogant, so he was not at all I believe it, but Zhu Jun is much more careful, so he secretly pays attention to it in his heart.

At noon, someone from the palace suddenly sent a message to let the two of them enter the palace to face the saint. Huangfusong changed into court clothes without any doubts, while Zhu Jun became vigilant and thought for a while before going to court. go.

However, not far from the Meridian Gate, they met Huangfu Song coming out angrily, Zhu Jun was startled, and rushed to meet him: "General Huangfu, why are you so angry?"

"It turned out to be General Zhu. I'm so pissed off. These eunuchs actually set their minds on this general. It's unreasonable."

"General Huangfu calm down, what is it? Could it be that you also received news from the palace asking you to meet the Holy One? Didn't you see the Holy One?" Zhu Jun asked with a frown.

"What? General Zhu also received the news that he was going to meet the Holy One? Oh, it's better not to go, where is the Holy Majesty who wants to summon us, it's the gang of eunuchs who want to plot against us, and we won't be able to see the Holy Majesty at this time."

"How about this, General Huangfu, why don't we brothers find a place to sit down and talk slowly about what's going on? I know that gang of eunuchs have been plotting against us for a long time. I don't know what they want to do this time? But we can You can’t sit still, analyze and analyze what they want to do together, and then come up with a way.”

"That's good. There is a Shilixiang shop on Buheli Street. I heard that the wine there is very good. Let's go there and chat while drinking."

Huangfusong thought for a while, he knew that Zhu Jun had always had more ideas, so he seemed to have thought of something after hearing his words at this time, so he nodded and invited Zhu Jun to a restaurant that had recently become famous, and found that there was indeed a business here Very good, although it was already past noon, the upper and lower floors were full of guests.
