Han Dynasty Achievements

Chapter 47: Revenge of the Eunuchs (Changed the title)

Winder Hall.

He Jin was placed under house arrest in a row of corridors in the backyard.

The room was filled with the smell of alcohol, and there were jars all over the floor, some of which were broken, and the tables, chairs and benches had obviously been smashed.

He Jin was lying on the ground with clear marks of strangulation on his neck, obviously he had committed suicide by hanging.

On the side, three Zhonghuangmen were kneeling on the ground, trembling, with extremely frightened faces.

This was the most powerful general of the dynasty, and yet he committed suicide silently under their supervision!

Liu Bian had a blank expression on his face, but he was constantly worrying in his mind.

The situation had finally eased, but He Jin died again.

If the news gets out, the maternal relatives will be furious, and the non-maternal relatives will also be treading on thin ice and trembling with fear.

He couldn't help but recall that Mrs. He came here yesterday and there was a heated argument.

'What's the connection?'

Liu Bian thought about it and took a deep breath. This was not the time to explore this, but to deal with the aftermath.

He weighed the pros and cons over and over again in his mind, glanced at Pan Yin, and asked, "Who else knows?"

Seeing Liu Bian's cold expression, Pan Yin's heart also beat fast, and he said, "There are only these three people, no one else."

Liu Bian hummed and said, "Then these three people, everything should continue as usual, and no one should find out, otherwise, they will be executed!"

At least, before the coronation ceremony.

"Yes." Pan Yin responded with a cautious and uneasy look on his face.

Liu Bian took off his clothes, watched the sky gradually brighten, took a deep breath, calmed his mind, looked at He Jin's body again, and turned and left.

As soon as Liu Bian left, Pan Yin stared at the three eunuchs who were still kneeling on the ground with a chill in his eyes and shouted angrily, "What a good thing you did!"

One of the eunuchs raised his head, his face full of fear, and said, "Grand Autumn, please save us..."

The other two also raised their heads and shouted in unison, "Pan Yin, save their lives."

Pan Yin snorted coldly and said, "Watch your mouth!"

"Yes, yes, yes! We will obey the orders of the Grand Chamberlain!" The three of them kowtowed in unison.

Pan Yin ignored them and looked at He Jin's body on the ground. He said, "The weather is getting hot. The body cannot be hidden in the house. Move the body away at night and one of you will pretend to be the one. If there is any mistake, you will go to the imperial prison and wait for death!"

"Don't worry, Grand Changqiu, there will be no mistakes!" the three people responded in succession.

After Pan Yin finished taking care of these things, he hurried out of the corridor.

Liu Bian returned to Jingfu Palace and sat down in the study, holding a piece of silk in his hand, reading it in a trance.

This is a list of people who have resigned from office recently. There are many familiar names on it, such as Xun You and He Yong.

Liu Bian looked at these names and kept thinking in his mind.

……

Liu Mansion.

Liu Yu has had a hard time recently because of General He Jin's "illness", so many people came to him, and their words and deeds seemed to be seeking protection.

But Liu Yu felt that he could hardly protect himself, let alone others.

He put on his official uniform early in the morning, prepared to enter the palace and go to the Shangshu Terrace.

Yuan Wei was a better person than He Jin. He would discuss everything with others. The coronation ceremony brought about great changes without making any noise.

What he wanted to discuss with Yuan Wei today was the matter of Huang Wan, the governor of Jizhou, coming to the capital.

Liu Yu walked out of the door and just stepped onto the carriage when a middle-aged man suddenly appeared from nowhere and rushed up to him. He said in a low voice with a serious face, "General, something big has happened!"

When Liu Yu saw him, his expression changed. He immediately pulled him aside and said solemnly, "Why did you come to see me all of a sudden instead of staying at the Court of Justice? Don't you know what time it is now?!"

The person who came was the Left Supervisor of the Supreme Court, Zhong Yao.

He was in his forties, but his temples were covered with white hair, his features were long and thin, and his face was stern. He looked at Liu Yu, glanced around, took out a document from his arms, handed it to Liu Yu, and said, "Taiwei, please read it first."

Seeing how cautious he was, Liu Yu took the document, opened it, glanced at it, and then slammed it shut again, shouting, "Where did you get it from!?"

This document contains all information about He Jin accepting bribes, selling official positions and titles, and even plotting to poison Empress Dowager Dong!

Each case is clearly organized and the chain of evidence is tight. It is not simple at first glance!

Zhong Yao walked closer and said, "I received it last night. It's signed by Zhang Feng, Zhang Rang's adopted son. I did some research and it's basically true!"

Zhang Rang’s adopted son!

This is the revenge of the eunuchs!

Liu Yu's heart was shaken and his expression kept changing.

He Jin is different from the eunuch party!

The eunuch party, these civil servants, attack at will and create trouble even when there is nothing to do.

Although He Jin was a relative by marriage, he was the leader of the civil servants. They were already afraid that something would happen to He Jin and implicate countless people. Now that such evidence suddenly emerged, how could Liu Yu not panic.

Zhong Yao looked at Liu Yu who was silent, and said anxiously: "General, if these were to be spread out, I'm afraid there would be countless people implicated. The Party Imprisonment Disaster is not far away!"

Liu Yu stared at him, snorted angrily, and said, "How could I not know! But since that one is given to you, will I only give you one?"

Zhong Yao glanced around again and said, "I think it's better to hand it over to Yuan Taifu and let him make the decision."

Liu Yu immediately shook his head, and then warned with a look of warning, "There are some things I cannot tell you, but you must remember that everything that has happened in the capital recently is related to the Yuan family, so you must stay away from them."

Zhong Yao was startled and asked, "Then, what should we do?"

The coronation ceremony is imminent, and He Jin's "illness" has already caused panic among the people in the court and the public. If the evidence of He Jin's crimes were to come to light, at this critical juncture, something big might happen!

Liu Yu did not hide his emotions in front of Zhong Yao, his eyes were full of anger and hatred, and he said: "The person behind this wants to disrupt the court, I will not let him succeed! I have recommended you as the Minister of Justice, you should not stand out again, at this time, be cautious!"

Zhong Yao raised his hand and said, "I'll leave everything to the Grand Commandant."

Liu Yu looked annoyed. He waved his hand, took the document and got on the carriage.

Zhong Yao watched the carriage go away, looked around, and left quickly.

Liu Yu sat in the carriage holding the document, looking solemn. He felt as if a huge rock was pressing on his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.

He entered the palace and came to the Secretariat, where he saw Yuan Wei already processing official documents. He looked hesitant, but in the end he did not step forward. Instead, he sat down at his seat and began to review and approve official documents.

Yuan Wei raised his eyelids and looked at him, then continued to work on the things in his hands.

Liu Yu was working, but his mind was still on the document in his arms. Every item in it seemed to be imprinted in his mind and could not be erased.

After a while, he could no longer hold back and looked at Yuan Wei, saying, "Master, are you going to the palace to see the emperor today?"

Yuan Wei silently reviewed the official document in front of him, picked up a pen and wrote a few words, then slowly said, "Are you going to see the general?"

Liu Yu was a guest of honor in the General's Mansion and had very close contacts with him. He was very active in the matter of exterminating the eunuch party.

Liu Yu didn't expect Yuan Wei to mention He Jin. His expression froze for a moment, and he said, "I heard that many people have resigned recently, and most of the staff in the General's Office have left."

Yuan Wei picked up another piece of silk, flipped it open, and said, "If one's body is not upright, one will always be worried. It's a good thing that they are gone."

Liu Yu looked at Yuan Wei and had a lot to say in his mind, but he was hesitant to say it out loud.

The eunuch party was exterminated, He Jin "took sick leave", and more and more people from the party of foreign relatives resigned recently, leaving too many positions vacant, and there were countless people vying for them. Liu Yu only got a position as a court judge, and 60% of the candidates for the nine ministers and below were students and former officials of the Yuan family.

Yuan Wei acted uprightly and without any concealment. Although Liu Yu could not say anything, he was always dissatisfied in his heart.
