This month, Lu Zhi and Zhang Jiao fought a decisive battle in Guangzong, killing more than 50,000 people. Zhang Jiao, the rebel leader, was killed by Chu Huan, the partial general. At this point, the Yellow Turban Rebellion was generally pacified.
Because he had killed Zhang Jiao, Lu Zhi had given him a new look, so this good job of showing off his achievements in the capital had fallen to Chu Huan.
Luoyang, here I come!
When they arrived at the capital, they saw a fierce-looking man standing outside the city gates, led by many court officials.
The leader was definitely He Jin, that butcher.
One of the most important criteria for being an official in the Great Han Dynasty was appearance.
In layman's terms, the more handsome he was, the more popular he was.
A rough man like He Jin, if it wasn't because he had a good sister who became the Empress, how could he sit on the throne of the Great General?
"General Lu Zhi's subordinate, Chu Huan, offers the head of the rebel Zhang Jiao.”
"You are the general who killed Zhang Jiao? If you are really a tiger general, I will report to Your Majesty to ask for merit for you!”He Jin's intention to rope him in was obvious.
"Great General, you flatter me. If it weren't for Your Majesty's strategies and Great General's wisdom, our army wouldn't have been able to pacify the Yellow Turbans so quickly.”
He Jin would not live for more than a few days anyway. It was the best policy to use him for greater benefits.
He Jin only felt his entire body relax. He was usually scolded by countless people as a person who slaughtered cattle and sheep. Now, he was praised in front of those sour scholars. How could he not be beautiful?
"Alright, alright! General Chu was indeed a great talent. He was truly the future pillar of the Great Han Dynasty!”
At this moment, a cold snort reached everyone's ears.
Chu Huan looked in the direction of the voice and found that it was a middle-aged man with a pale face and no beard behind He Jin.
Judging from his behavior, he must be a eunuch. Otherwise, He Jin's expression would not be so ugly.
"General Chu is tired. Go to my residence to rest first. After I go to the palace to ask for merit from His Majesty, I will make other plans. Bring General Chu back to the manor."
"Thank you, Great General."
After entering the city gate, Chu Huan sent away the servants of the He residence to look for the eunuch from before.
When he was behind them, Chu Huan said loudly,""Milords, please wait. Chu Huan pays his respects.”
"So it's General Chu. What can I do for you?”A skinny eunuch answered in a hoarse voice.
"This is the package that Milord left behind just now.”Chu Huan handed the luggage on his back to the other party.
After the eunuch opened it and took a look, he quickly closed it and looked around vigilantly.
"May I know your name?" Chu Huan asked calmly.
This package contained the money that he had prepared beforehand. He believed that other than the great aristocratic families whose wealth could rival a country, everyone else would be tempted to see it.
"I am Zhang Rang, the constant attendant of my clan. I wonder what General Chu means by this?”Zhang Rang lifted the package.
Chu Huan was surprised." So it's Your Majesty's father. I've been disrespectful. Speaking of this package, it actually means literally. It's just returning it to its owner."”
As a eunuch, Zhang Rang had been able to rise to the top, and his ability to observe people's expressions had reached the peak. How could he not see that there was something behind it?
"Then I thank General Chu. Speaking of which, General will definitely be in trouble in the capital. If there's anything I can help with, feel free to ask.”Zhang Rang handed the package to the attendant.
"I'm ashamed to say this, but I do have a matter that I would like to ask for your help with.”
Chu Huan had made up his mind to talk to the eunuchs behind He Jin's back.
History showed that He Jin liked to recruit talents from all over the world. The more outstanding the person, the more he wanted to keep them by his side, such as Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Cao Cao who died unjustly.
The world would soon be in chaos. At that time, staying in the capital would only lead to death. Releasing them outside was the last resort.
"I hope General Chu can explain."
"I've heard that Jiangnan and Shanyue have caused trouble many times, disturbing the people of my Great Han. In addition, I'm used to fighting and don't really want to take up a post in the capital. If I help Your Majesty guard a region, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?”
Zhang Rang rolled his eyes when he heard this and said with a troubled expression,"This matter is not small. Perhaps I can't make the decision.”
Chu Huan was prepared for this answer.
" I heard that Sir Jian Shuo is in the military." He only finished half of his sentence before he smiled.
Zhang Rang knew the second meaning of this sentence. Although the eunuchs were powerful, Jian Shuo was the only one in the army. He Miao could only be considered half of them. There was not a single one in the local area.
If there was someone working outside to coordinate with the court, it would be the best policy.
Thinking of this, Zhang Rang smiled." General Chu is really worried about the country and the people. If every minister in the court is like General Chu, there is no need to worry about the prosperity of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, leave this matter to me. General Chu, just wait for good news."”
Chu Huan heaved a sigh of relief after getting an accurate answer.
Anyway, he only said half a sentence and did not promise Zhang Rang anything.
In this era, if others knew that he was related to the eunuchs, then there would be no need to talk about grand plans.
One had to know that the aristocrats had an irreconcilable hatred for the eunuchs.
Most of the famous people in the Three Kingdoms period came from the aristocratic families. Of course, the Ten Generals also left their names, but they were cursed for thousands of years.
Therefore, with the support of the gentry, coupled with his courage, he had nothing to worry about.
