"My lord, you can leave your instructions to me and go back with peace of mind. I will take care of the affairs in the palace. Your status is special, and it is better for you to stay away from places of right and wrong and stay behind the scenes. Moreover, if you give up the princess, I am afraid you will be despised by the people of the world." Cao Zhengchun said.
Jinyiwei spies are spread throughout the palace, and every move is under his surveillance. Moreover, the imperial guards are in his hands, so if there is chaos in the palace, he can escape in time.
After thinking it over, Lin Han asked Cao Zhengchun to take charge.
The princess's affection was a small matter, the dragon energy was rather precious, and what he feared most was being despised by knowledgeable people in the world, which would make it difficult for him to recruit celebrities in the future.
"While I'm gone, please pay attention to one thing. With Dong's death, the Ten Eunuchs have lost their last resort. He Jin, Yuan Shao, and others have been plotting to kill the eunuchs for a long time. Zhang Rang has been forced into a corner, and I'm afraid he'll become desperate."
Cao Zhengchun raised his eyebrows and asked, "My lord, are you saying that Zhang Rang and the others will strike first?"
"If things become desperate, Zhang Rang and the others will definitely not sit idly by and wait for death."
"So what should my subordinates do? Stop him?"
"Why not stop it? If Zhang Rang and the others really do take action, remember to immediately escort He out of the palace and lead the imperial guards south. Don't worry about anything else and don't stay."
"Where is the emperor?" Cao Zhengchun asked.
"No matter what, life or death has nothing to do with us." Lin Han shook his head.
Cao Zhengchun savored it carefully and nodded secretly.
The next day, Lin Han said goodbye to He on the pretext that he had something to do in Hanjiang City.
"General Xiao, what should I do if you leave now?" He said reluctantly.
"Your Majesty, the matter in Luoyang has been basically settled, and Lord Shi has ascended the throne, but there is still a hidden danger."
"Hidden danger? What kind of hidden danger is it?"
"Lord He!"
He raised her eyebrows, and before she could speak, Lin Han interrupted her.
"To be precise, it's the aristocratic families around Lord He."
"What do you mean?" He calmed down a little and asked.
"The hatred between the aristocratic families and the eunuchs runs deep. Back then, the Party Ban was the work of the Ten Attendants. Now that the Party Ban has been resolved, the aristocratic families, relying on Lord He's power, have rapidly grown in influence. They will undoubtedly instigate Lord He to forcefully eliminate the Ten Attendants and other eunuchs. If the Empress does not allow this, a rift will inevitably arise between Her Majesty and Lord He."
"this?"
He paused, thought for a moment, and nodded slightly.
"Recently, my brother has urged me to eliminate the eunuchs and demand the military power from Cao Zhengchun."
"Yes, next, those aristocratic families will definitely instigate Master He to find ways to kill the eunuchs and seize the military power of the imperial guards."
"If you leave, how should I deal with it?"
"Your Majesty holds great power, and you have rejected Lord He's idea of exterminating the eunuchs. Lord He wants to seize control of the Imperial Guards and exterminate the eunuchs. Perhaps he will listen to the advice of those aristocratic families and gather troops back to Luoyang to force the emperor to abdicate. This is what Your Majesty must guard against, and be careful to prevent Lord He from forcing the emperor to abdicate."
He's expression changed slightly: "Could it be that the general is being too suspicious?"
"Your Majesty, I have said all I can. Whether I am being overly suspicious will be determined tomorrow. After I leave, Your Majesty, remember to instruct Lord He Jin not to summon troops from the border back to Luoyang, especially Dong Zhuo. If Lord He summons Dong Zhuo back to the capital, Luoyang will be in danger."
Lin Han didn't care whether He would listen or not. His goal was not to change history, but to gain more benefits in the main line of history.
The system will not let him change history, and will definitely find various "reasonable" excuses to push history forward, just like when Tang Zhou informed on others and was killed by him, there were still Tang Zhou and Tang Jun.
Lin Han didn't want to do anything in vain.
With 80,000 imperial troops in his hands, and the titles of Marquis of Guanjun, General of Chariots and Cavalry, and Governor of Yangzhou, he had already obtained a lot, but now Princess Wannian was more important.
Lin Han knew that the system was using Princess Wannian to force him to leave Luoyang, otherwise he would be unable to move forward and suffer greater losses.
Before leaving, Lin Han secretly gave Cao Zhengchun some instructions before leaving.
