Chapter 16: Four Generations of Three Dukes

Pan Yin didn't expect the reversal to happen so quickly, and quickly responded, "Yes."

After saying this, he took the guards, the eunuchs and palace maids from Empress Dowager He's palace, and went after He Jin.

Empress Dowager He was still in shock. She watched Pan Yin and the others walk away, then turned to Liu Bian and said, "Bian'er, you must save your second uncle. You can't let him be involved in the conspiracy case. We are a family, we can't just stand by and watch him die..."

The He family was a poor family. He Jin could still kill pigs, but He Miao was a second-rate guy who could do nothing. He only benefited from the favor of Empress Dowager He and was promoted all the way to the title of Marquis of Jiyang and General of Chariots and Cavalry.

But he has done so many bad things that if we don't investigate, something big will happen and he will not be able to escape the death penalty!

Liu Bian said seriously, "Don't worry, mother. I will not let anything happen to your second uncle as long as I am here. However, there are some things that I dare not tell you because I am afraid that you will worry. In the future, you must inform me before issuing an imperial decree."

Empress Dowager He nodded repeatedly and said anxiously, "I understand. I will listen to you from now on. You must save your second uncle..."

Liu Bian naturally did not say anything and continued to comfort Empress Dowager He.

At the same time, Pan Yin led his men and walked quickly, breathlessly stopping He Jin in front of the Suzaku Gate.

The eunuch in Empress Dowager He's palace immediately stepped forward and said, "General, the Empress Dowager said that this imperial decree must be taken back. Please return it to us, General."

He Jin had a blank expression on his face. He held the hilt of the knife in his right hand and glanced at him sideways. He said, "How can an imperial decree be issued and retracted at will? Go back and tell the Queen Mother that I will issue the imperial decree. It is for her good."

After saying that, He Jin turned around and was about to leave.

Pan Yin moved his feet and stopped in front of him, saying, "General, please allow me to report this. The Empress Dowager said that the imperial edict must be taken back. Please don't make things difficult for me, General."

He Jin's face was filled with anger, and he said in a deep voice: "I am from the same hometown as you, and we have had a lot of friendship in the past. Tell me honestly, is this your majesty's idea?"

Pan Yin lowered his head, not daring to look He Jin in the eye, and said softly, "General, this imperial decree is very important. It was decided by the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager also said that if the general refuses to hand it back, she must take it back even if she has to steal it."

He Jin's face was full of ferocity, his eyes widened, he stepped forward, blocked Pan Yin's way and shouted, "Did the Queen Mother really say that?"

"Yes, General." Pan Yin said nothing. The eunuch in Empress Dowager He's palace said, "The Empress Dowager said that we must take it back even if we robbed it. Please forgive me, General."

He Jin's chest heaved, and his anger had already reached his head.

Yuan Shao was just one step away from being released from the palace, but he was stopped at this point!

He looked at the guards who were vaguely surrounding him, his face throbbing with anger, his heart burning with rage, he wanted to draw his sword and chop someone, but he suppressed his anger and said, "I'm going to see the Queen Mother!"

Having said that, he turned back again.

He was filled with rage, which almost set him on fire. He decided that today he would make sure that his nephew, whom he had helped to get to that position, would learn the consequences of his actions!

Empress Dowager He and Liu Bian were standing in front of Jingfu Hall. They saw He Jin coming from afar, and from the speed of his steps, they could tell how angry he was.

Empress Dowager He was a little panicked. She pulled Liu Bian and said, "Bian'er, what should I do? Otherwise, just tell him? Maybe he has a solution."

Liu Bian held Empress Dowager He's hand and said, "Mother, tell my uncle. He will stop making trouble, and the ministers will stop making trouble too. Then, the matter of the Twelve Eunuchs will be the first to be blamed! So, we must keep it a secret from my uncle!"

Empress Dowager He grabbed Liu Bian's hand, her face full of nervousness and confusion.

Liu Bian glanced at He Jin who was about to reach him, and whispered: "Mother, you are the Queen Mother. As long as you show your determination and refuse to give in, there is nothing your uncle can do. After a few days, I will remove the second uncle and make it clear to the eldest uncle. Any grudges will be resolved. After all, we are a family."

Empress Dowager He thought it made sense and said, "Bian'er is right. Once your second uncle is cleared up, any misunderstandings will be resolved."

"Queen Mother!"

He Jin came in angrily and shouted, "How can the imperial decree be withdrawn at will? Yuan Shao must be released, and a generous reward must be given!"

Empress Dowager He was frightened by his aura and was afraid to speak.

Liu Bian remained expressionless, standing beside her, quietly resting his right hand on her back.

Empress Dowager He suddenly gained confidence, her face darkened, and she said, "General, watch your attitude. I am the Empress Dowager of the current dynasty!"

He Jin was furious, glared back, and angrily said: "Even if you are the Queen Mother, you have to understand the situation! Yuan Shao led his troops into the palace to eliminate the thieves and he has done a great deed! Don't forget, if I hadn't ordered Yuan Shao to lead his troops into the palace, your son might not have been able to sit on the throne. You should all be grateful to me!"

These words shocked not only Empress Dowager He, but also the palace maids and eunuchs around her.

Empress Dowager He was so angry that she trembled all over. Her face was extremely ugly. She shouted, "How dare you! He Jin, are you talking to me? I am the Empress Dowager. I can take it back if I say so. Hand over the imperial decree to me!"

Seeing this, Liu Bian quickly moved his left hand behind his back to signal Pan Yin.

Pan Yin lowered his head slightly and winked at the guards calmly.

These guards were personally selected by Liu Bian. When they saw the order, they stepped forward and surrounded He Jin.

He Jin was so angry that his chest felt like it was about to explode. His chest heaved violently. He glared at Empress Dowager He, then glared at Liu Bian with bloodshot eyes. His face was ferocious, and he gritted his teeth and roared.

Empress Dowager He was equally angry, and for the first time she confronted He Jin with glares.

He Jin was so angry that he took out the imperial edict from his arms and threw it on the ground, shouting, "Okay, okay! You! You! Okay! I'll give it back to you! I want to see what you can do without me!"

After saying that, he waved his hand and strode away.

Empress Dowager He looked at his back and was equally furious. She chased after him and said, "Don't forget that you wouldn't be where you are today without me!"

He Jin ignored him and left even faster than when he came.

Liu Bian's expression remained unchanged, but he watched He Jin's back with a smile in his eyes.

With Empress Dowager He on his side, He Jin could be suppressed in a short period of time.

All he needs is time!

Yuan family.

In the back hall of the Yuan family, Yuan Shao’s wives and concubines brought their children and cried, begging the elders of the Yuan family to save Yuan Shao.

The Yuan family had "three dukes in four generations". "Four generations" refers to four generations, and "three dukes" refers to the Grand Marshal, the Minister of the Interior, and the Minister of Works.

Starting from Yuan Wei's great-grandfather, five people in four generations of the Yuan family were ranked as the Three Dukes, making the family a prominent family that attracted worldwide attention.

Yuan Shao was considered the fifth generation.

After pacifying these younger generations, Yuan Wei entered his younger brother Yuan Feng's room.

Yuan Feng is currently the Prefect of the Guards, having been promoted from the position of Minister of Civil Affairs, and is also one of the 'Three Dukes of Four Generations'.

Because of a long-term illness, he had been bedridden at home. When he saw Yuan Wei come in, he struggled to sit up.

He looked older than Yuan Wei, with a sickly and haggard face, sunken eyes, and he kept coughing, "Brother, has Benchu ​​been rescued?"
