Double penetration: This Three Kingdoms has dragon energy

Chapter 51 The Yuan Family Makes a Plan
When Yuan Wei first heard the news, he was almost angry to death.

Thinking of the half-smile that Liu Hong gave him when he announced the news at the court meeting, he was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a hole to crawl into!
It wasn't until a while later that he calmed down.

Then I felt shocked and angry.

Jing means surprise and horror.

This incident happened too suddenly, catching him off guard and leaving him with no way to remedy the situation.

The chain reaction that resulted from this made him very worried.

For many years, the power of the aristocratic families and the imperial power of the Han court has been in a state of rise and fall.

After nearly a hundred years of efforts, the aristocratic families finally gained almost complete control of local power and gradually forced the imperial power into the city of Luoyang.

The fact that the Yuan family could openly set up the Yuan family military camp in Tianmen Mountain is evidence.

However, in just a few months, the Yuan family military camp was completely destroyed by natural disasters, and then two thousand Xiliang cavalry under Dong Zhuo were lost.

Dong Zhuo's two thousand Western Liang cavalry were no ordinary force. They were a core force deployed by the aristocratic families around Luoyang City, controlling the Luoyang area outside Luoyang City.

Without this army, the aristocratic families lost their power in the area around Luoyang.

And power does not disappear, it only shifts.

Therefore, it can be predicted that the power of the areas surrounding Luoyang will fall into the hands of Emperor Liu Hong.

This was the biggest setback the aristocratic family had suffered in the past decade.

It was also the largest backlash of Han imperial power in the past decade.

Yuan Wei was really worried about what Emperor Liu Hong, who held such great power, would do next.

As for "nu", it means anger.

But there is also anger towards Ji Qiu, an ungrateful and lucky person who dared to provoke the Yuan family without knowing what is good for him.

He was also angry that Yuan Shao dared to mobilize the army without telling him!
Comparing the two, the latter is more angry!

Because we must first stabilize the country before we can resist foreign aggression!

Compared with provocations from outsiders, he could not tolerate the instability within the Yuan family and the behavior of someone daring to challenge his authority!
So he immediately summoned all the core disciples of the Yuan family in Luoyang City, taught Yuan Shao a lesson in public, and established his authority!

Yuan Shao lowered his head, trying hard to hide the resentment in his eyes, not daring to let Yuan Wei see it. He whispered, "Uncle is teaching me that this was my fault, and I will never do it again."

"Well, since you can admit your mistakes, you can still be saved. However, your actions have broken the tacit understanding between the emperor and the aristocratic family. Not only has your family suffered heavy losses, but you have also angered the emperor. You can no longer serve as the Sili Xiaowei.

"Write a letter of resignation, and I will find you a position as governor of Bohai. You can stay out of the spotlight for a few years!" Yuan Wei said in a deep voice, his expression slightly softened after seeing Yuan Shao admit his mistake.

Yuan Shao was shocked, a look of panic on his face. He kept saying, "Resigning as the Inspector of the Imperial Capital? How can I do that? I've already laid out multiple plans. Just give me a few more months and I'll be able to completely wipe out the Embroidered Uniform Guard. How can I resign now?"

In the beginning, he had put in a lot of effort to get the position of Inspector of the Imperial Capital.

How could it be handed over so easily now?
Moreover, after resigning from the position of Sili Xiaowei, he wanted to become the prefect of Bohai. Isn't this just being kicked out directly?

Yuan Shao absolutely cannot bear this result!

"Enough! Don't you understand yet? The Embroidered Uniform Guards are the minions of the Son of Heaven. Only by completely suppressing the power of the Son of Heaven can we eliminate the Embroidered Uniform Guards!
Previously, we had the upper hand in Luoyang City, giving you a slight chance to eliminate the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Now, times have changed, and the situation in Luoyang City has changed drastically. How can you possibly eliminate the Embroidered Uniform Guard?
Asking you to resign is not only my wish, but also the Emperor's wish.

This matter is a foregone conclusion. If you can change it, then do it!" Yuan Wei said coldly.

Yuan Shao's face was immediately filled with resentment. He knew that although this was the emperor's intention, if Yuan Wei tried his best to stop it, even if the emperor took action, it would be difficult to take away this official position.

The reason for this result was that Yuan Wei not only did not stop it, but instead went along with it.

In the final analysis, Yuan Wei wanted to use this incident to demonstrate his absolute authority within the Yuan family, and he became the chicken that was killed to scare the monkeys!
"How dare you insult me ​​like this, old bastard? I'll make you pay the price sooner or later!"

Yuan Shao cursed in his heart, but he didn't dare to show any strange expression on his face. He just lowered his head and said through gritted teeth: "...Yes, nephew obeys your command."

"Well, okay, then you should pack up and leave Luoyang as soon as possible!" Seeing that Yuan Shao accepted the result, Yuan Wei finally showed a look of satisfaction on his face and said lightly.

Then he ignored Yuan Shao and looked around at the other Yuan family members in the hall and said, "Shao'er is certainly wrong in this matter, but Ji Qiu dared to provoke the Yuan family, which is even more despicable!

This person must not be allowed to stay alive. He must be killed without a burial place in order to deter other villains.

What good ideas do you have?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the hall had different expressions.

The eldest son, Yuan Ji, chuckled and said, "Don't worry, uncle. This is easy. I heard that Ji Qiu was appointed as the lieutenant of Mount Tai, with the main task of suppressing the Yellow Turbans in Mount Tai."

Later, the nephew wrote to the noble families in Taishan County, asking them to make things difficult for Ji Qiu.

What could Ji Qiu, a lucky person who came from a remote county and had no reputation at all, accomplish without the support of the local aristocratic families?

He will surely follow the same fate as the previous governor and lieutenant of Mount Tai, and perish at the hands of the Yellow Turbans!"

“Well, this is a good idea, but since Ji Qiu was able to annihilate two thousand Xiliang cavalry, it can be seen that he is also good at using troops.

Simply letting the aristocratic families of Mount Tai hold him back might not necessarily lead to his defeat and death!" Yuan Wei nodded in agreement with Yuan Ji's opinion, but added.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Shu hurried forward and said, "Don't worry, uncle. The local aristocratic families in Taishan County alone are indeed a bit weak, but what if we add the strength of the local Yellow Turbans?

Na Ji Qiu was responsible for suppressing the Yellow Turbans in Mount Tai, and was a mortal enemy of the Yellow Turbans in Mount Tai.

My nephew thinks that we can immediately contact the Yellow Turbans of Mount Tai, provide them with food, fodder and weapons, and help them establish contact channels with local aristocratic families.

Being attacked from both inside and outside, even if Ji Qiu had three heads and six arms, he would still be doomed to die without a burial place!"

The relationship between the aristocratic families and the Yellow Turbans is far closer than outsiders imagine.

Before Zhang Jue raised the banner of rebellion, he had always been a guest of honor among the world's noble families.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion was essentially a general uprising of local forces instigated by aristocratic families to break the imperial power of the Han court.

After this chaos, the Han court completely lost its ability to control the local area.

As the leader of the world's aristocratic families, the Yuan family has always maintained close ties with the Yellow Turbans in various places.

And the person responsible for this matter is Yuan Shu!
