In May, news came from Luoyang that Dong Chong, the second-ranking figure in the Han military, had died in prison.

The hussar general Dong Chong was the mother of the late emperor Liu Hong and the nephew of the Empress Dowager Dong. He was a member of the Dong family's relatives.

The late emperor Liu Hong appointed him as a hussar general in order to divide the military power of his cousin He.

Now, Dong Zhong has been killed. In addition, Jian Shuo died early, and the entire military power of Luoyang may have fallen into the hands of General He Jin!

But no one expected that just one month later, on the seventh day of June, Empress Dowager Dong collapsed.

No need to ask, everyone knows that it must have been the He family! They are really cruel and ruthless.

My husband just died and I killed my mother-in-law!

This made everyone shake their heads secretly, quite dissatisfied with the He family's approach.

Since Dong Zhong is dead, the Dong family no longer has military power and there is no threat. It would be better for you to lock up Empress Dowager Dong and put her in the cold palace than to kill her directly!

After all, the Han family rules the world with filial piety, and you, a daughter-in-law, kill your mother-in-law...

"Then the He family is indeed a family of butchers. They don't know etiquette and filial piety, and they still want to infiltrate our noble clan! What a wishful thinking!"

This caused the He family's reputation to plummet!

Next, news came that the imperial court had moved Liu Xie, the king of Bohai, to be king of Chenliu.

This made everyone breathe a sigh of relief. The He family finally didn't go crazy and kill Liu Xie again!

Although political struggle is cruel, human relations and ethics are equally important. Killing indiscriminately will only lead to loss of reputation and popularity!

At the same time, news from Luoyang continued to spread to Xuzhou.

All the scholars are persuading General He Jin to kill the eunuchs. As long as General He Jin can successfully kill the eunuchs, such a great achievement can establish a huge reputation for him.

When the time comes, the He family will not only become a noble family, but also become the top noble family in the world, passing down the family business from generation to generation. And He Jin himself will be supported by the scholars and will be able to rule the country for a long time.

It seems that the general He Jin was tempted by this and wanted to kill the eunuchs.

However, the news from the cavalry general He Miao was that General He Jin's move was foolish. Once General He Jin really killed the eunuchs, the fight would become between scholars and their relatives.

Dou Wu, the great general at that time, was originally a scholar, and he was also one of the three leaders among the scholars and one of the three monarchs. He was originally a leader of scholars, and then he was a relative.

You, He Jin, are just a butcher by birth, and you are looked down upon by others. If you join the gentry halfway, how can they regard you as one of their own?

When you kill the eunuchs, I'm afraid those scholars will just kick you out of office and let the scholars rule by themselves!

He Jin did not see this clearly as He Miao and Queen He did.

He Miao wrote a letter and asked Zheng Xiaoming to help persuade He Jin not to fall into the tactics of the scholars.

However, in the end, Zheng Xiaoming did not write this letter.

As soon as this letter was written, he, Zheng Xiaoming, became the enemy of all the scholars in the world!

Not to mention this, what is more important is that as the emperor's eldest son Liu Bian ascended the throne, one of Zheng Xiaoming's sisters became the queen. In other words, Zheng Xiaoming is now a serious relative!

Queen He is now Queen Mother He, the mother-in-law of Zheng Xiaoming's sister!

The relationship between the two parties is very delicate!

You must know that Queen Mother He killed her mother-in-law not long ago.

The struggle between relatives is more dangerous and cruel.

At this time, He Miao was probably too confused to come to Zheng Xiaoming for help!

Now Zheng Xiaoming is no longer a small figure attached to the He family. He has his own territory, an army, and subordinates. It has become a climate.

He even had a large group of scholars taking refuge under him, and because of his achievements in governing Xuzhou, he was accepted by the scholars all over the world. They considered Zheng Xiaoming a capable minister capable of pacifying the world!

After the He family steps down, sooner or later it will be his turn for Zheng Xiaoming to take over!

Therefore, Zheng Xiaoming made no move at all.

On the contrary, not long after, news came from Luoyang, probably because they wanted to win over Zheng Xiaoming, a powerful person, so that he would not get involved in Luoyang's affairs.

Therefore, in the name of the emperor, the imperial court officially appointed Zheng Xiaoming as the pastor of Xuzhou, and finally removed the title of agent from Zheng Xiaoming. It also gave Zheng Xiaoming a scepter, so that he could conquer the Yellow Turbans.

In other words, Zheng Xiaoming became the president who wiped out the Yellow Turbans all over the world!

So Zheng Xiaoming left Qingzhou and began to go to Qingzhou to wipe out the Yellow Turbans.

When the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans heard about the arrival of Zheng Xiaoming's army, they immediately fled. Anyway, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans have now become rogues and are no longer attached to one time and one place. Therefore, the surrounding Yanzhou and Yuzhou have been unlucky one after another, and those who escaped have been

The Yellow Turbans are making a big fuss.

What's even worse is that these Yellow Turbans are also flowing towards the Bohai Sea in Jizhou. They want to join the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans in Jizhou!

The number of Yellow Turbans in Montenegro has also reached millions. Once they merge with the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, they will be in big trouble.

In the name of envoy Chijie's expedition against the Yellow Turbans, Zheng Xiaoming asked Youzhou to send troops to intercept these Yellow Turban thieves fleeing to Jizhou.

He wanted to test his order to see if anyone in Youzhou would obey.

What satisfied him was that Youzhou Mu Liu Yu sent Fenwu General Gongsun Zan to attack these Jizhou Yellow Turbans.

The hometown of Youzhou Mu Liu Yu is in Tan County, Donghai, Xuzhou, which happened to be under the rule of Zheng Xiaoming.

Many of the sons of the Liu family in Tan County served as officials in Xuzhou, and there were also correspondence exchanges between Zheng Xiaoming and Liu Yu, the pastor of Youzhou.

When there was a food shortage in Youzhou this year, Zheng Xiaoming also supported a batch of grain... and even planned to establish a trading channel for grain and war horses with Liu Yu, the shepherd of Youzhou.

There is not much food shortage in Xuzhou now, and although Youzhou has a sparse population and lack of food, it is a production area of ​​war horses.

The two sides are highly complementary. The main reason is that they are too far apart, with Qinghai and Hebei in the middle. Land transportation is not very safe. It also costs too much along the way!

As for the sea, although it is feasible, transporting war horses by sea would be too costly.

After all, war horses will not adapt to the wind and waves at sea, and the current sea-going ships are too small and the technical level is not very high. Transporting war horses by sea will cause a large number of deaths of war horses.

But this transaction can be carried out reluctantly!

In short, Zheng Xiaoming has now established contact with Youzhou, and this time he asked Youzhou to take action. Even though Youzhou had just put down the Zhang Chun brothers' rebellion, the situation was not very good, but it still gave Zheng Xiaoming some face and sent out

Gongsun Zan led an army to intercept the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans.

Before the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans and the Black Mountain Army joined forces, they defeated the Qingzhou Army in one fell swoop.
Chapter completed!
