Han Dynasty Achievements

Chapter 20 Swinging the Sword

Chapter 20

He Jin vented a few words, panting heavily for a long time, and then he said with red eyes: "What should I do next?"

Chen Lin didn't want to say more. He was thinking about how to shirk the responsibility. Just as he opened his mouth, a clerk ran in and said in a hurry, "General, His Majesty has gone to the General of the Cavalry's Mansion."

He Jin's expression suddenly changed, and he asked, "Are you talking about Dong Zhong?"

The clerk said, "Yes. Just now when we got to the door, a servant saw us and immediately came back to report."

He Jin stood up suddenly, his face changing from gloomy to happy.

'balance'.

Chen Lin thought to himself that the emperor in the palace had been wary of his uncle, the great general, from the very beginning, and had been suppressing Yuan Shao on purpose to block He Jin. Now he had come to Dong Zhong's mansion in person, intending to use the Dong family to balance the He family.

He Jin's eyes were red, and he suddenly strode down, came directly in front of Chen Lin, and shouted: "Kong Zhang!"

Although He Jin was born into a butcher's family and had little experience, he had one advantage: he liked to gather scholars and was willing to chat with them, especially those who spoke to his heart and could help him.

Obviously, Chen Lin is it.

Chen Lin thought that he had stayed in the General's Mansion for such a long time, and finally had some host-guest ties. After thinking for a while, he said, "General, let's put aside the matter of Yuan Shao for now, and go to the palace immediately to see the Queen Mother and ease the relationship with her. When His Majesty returns to the palace, I will meet His Majesty with the Queen Mother and put aside those disputes. Once everything is settled, His Majesty will naturally know that the General is doing this for his own good."

He Jin was not satisfied with Chen Lin's words, but he knew that this was the best solution at the moment.

His face was livid as he said, "Okay! I will go to the palace to see the Queen Mother right now!"

“However, that Dong Zhong…” He Jin’s face was ferocious, with murderous intent in his eyes.

Chen Lin was shocked when he saw this, and said quickly: "General, don't be too hasty, you must take your time!"

Although the Twelve Eunuchs were basically eliminated, the relationship between He Jin and the palace remained tense, making the originally good situation complicated.

If He Jin killed Dong Chong again, it would certainly arouse anger in the palace. Chen Lin didn't even dare to think about such a situation!

He Jin gritted his teeth and was filled with hatred.

Chen Lin looked at He Jin's unwilling expression and sighed silently.

He Jin was born a butcher. He was straightforward in everything he did, without using any tricks. On the contrary, the young emperor who had just ascended the throne in the palace was much more sophisticated in his methods.

At the same time, Liu Bian had already entered the General of Cavalry's mansion.

Dong Zhong's broad forehead seemed to be glowing. He followed behind Liu Bian, almost laughing, and said, "Your Majesty, the repairs were a bit messy just now. I know a place with particularly good food. Can I take Your Majesty there?"

Liu Bian stood still and looked at the yard. Craftsmen were coming and going, piling up various materials. It was obvious that they were going to start a large-scale construction project. It didn't seem like repairing, but rather rebuilding.

Liu Bian glanced at him and smiled, "No need to bother. I heard that you were renovating the yard, so I came to see you. Pan Yin, bring the housewarming gift."

Pan Yin was stunned. What kind of housewarming gift?

Dong Zhong rushed in before Pan Yin, grinning from ear to ear, and said, "How dare I ask for a housewarming gift from Your Majesty. Your Majesty, please come in. I'll ask the chef to prepare the best food and wine, and I'll make sure Your Majesty will be satisfied."

Liu Bian turned sideways, looked at him and said, "Forget about the meal. Let me give you this jade pendant. You must keep it well."

Dong Zhong watched Liu Bian take off the jade pendant from his waist and hand it to him. He took it with trembling hands and said excitedly incoherently: "Yes, yes, I will, I dare not, I will keep it well, thank you, thank you, Your Majesty..."

The Han people value jade, and jade pendants have a very special meaning to them. Giving a jade pendant to someone usually indicates some kind of special respect.

Seeing that Dong Zhong did not understand the implication of "keep it well", Liu Bian smiled and said, "Okay, the housewarming gifts have been given, I should go back now."

Seeing Liu Bian was about to leave, Dong Zhong asked in a daze, "Your Majesty, aren't you going to have dinner at my humble abode? Did Your Majesty come here to eat?"

"Go ahead and do your job." Liu Bian had achieved his goal, so he didn't bother to talk nonsense with Dong Zhong and left quickly.

Dong Zhong chased after him, saying repeatedly: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, your Majesty, please see me off..."

Dong Zhong reluctantly withdrew his gaze only after Liu Bian had walked a long way away. He looked at the jade pendant in his hand, stroking it gently, feeling extremely excited.

He had a feeling that he was going to be very successful!

When Liu Bian left Dong Zhong's residence, he was about to find a place to eat, but a eunuch came running over and said, "Your Majesty, the general has entered the palace and went to the Queen Mother's place."

Liu Bian smiled slightly and said, "General, your illness has healed really quickly."

Pan Yin suddenly realized what was going on. So that was the case.

Liu Bian touched his stomach and felt hungry. He said, "Let's find a place to eat."

He just found a place at random.

Huangfu Mansion.

Huangfu Song came back in a hurry from outside. He was not tall, with dark face and a cold look between his brows that said "no strangers allowed".

He came to his son's bed with a gloomy face, looked at the medical staff in front of the bed and his second son who kept crying out in pain, and said angrily: "Don't save him, just let this beast die!"

When Huangfu Jian heard this, he couldn't help but yelled, "Am I still your son? He said his last name is Liu, and he asked you to take me to his house to apologize! You are a dignified general, I have no shame, don't you? Ouch, be gentle, you are going to kill me..."

Huangfu Song frowned when he heard this. His surname is Liu, and you want me to take this beast to apologize?

There were many powerful people with the surname Liu in the current dynasty, but he could never have imagined that someone so young would be asked to apologize in person!

Suddenly, he remembered that he had just heard that the new emperor had left the palace and went to the residence of General Dong Chong.

Won't……

Huangfu Song's expression changed drastically. He took a step forward, stared at Huangfu Jianchang coldly and said, "You beast, let me ask you, what does that young man look like?"

Huangfu Jianchang was bandaging the wound and kept crying out in pain. Upon hearing this, he shouted, "What a look! All of us young masters look the same, except that he has a mole on his head, which makes him ugly...ah..."

Before Huangfu Jianchang finished speaking, Huangfu Song rushed over, pressed his shoulders, and said, "Is he on the right, about fourteen or fifteen years old?"

"what……"

Huangfu Jian shouted loudly: "Yes, yes, that's it, let me go, it hurts, are you going to kill me!"

"I'll kill you, you beast!"

Huangfu Song threw Huangfu Jianchang off the bed to the ground, pulled out a sword from the wall, turned around and chopped him down.

"Master, you can't!"

"Owner!"

The maids and servants around were terrified and rushed over to stop it.

Huangfu Song was held tightly by the maids and servants, but he still waved his sword and shouted, "All of you get out of my way! I'm going to kill this beast!"

Huangfu Jianchang was beaten badly by Liu Bian, and was almost fainted by Huangfu Song's throw. Seeing that his father, who usually disliked him, was about to chop him with a sword, he just tilted his head.

"Second Young Master, Second Young Master..." The doctor was terrified and knelt down to rescue him.
