    The eastern capital of Luoyang, also known as Suiyang, is six miles and eleven steps long from east to west, nine miles and one hundred steps wide from north to south, and has a total circumference of more than thirty miles. The city wall is nine feet high, six feet wide at the bottom, and more than five feet wide at the top.  It is made of boulders, loess mixed with lime, iron sand and mixed with glutinous rice juice. It is indestructible.  There are a total of 12 gates on the four sides of the capital, especially the Daxia Gate in the north, which is the largest in scale. It has three door openings on the left, middle and right. Each door opening can pass four carriages running side by side. It is tall and majestic.  The entire city of Luoyang is backed by the majestic Mang Mountain, faces the winding Luo River in the south, overlooks the land of Qilu in the east, and echoes the Central Chang'an in the west. It can be said that it occupies a dangerous position with mountains and rivers. It is not only the largest city of the Han Dynasty, but also this city.  The largest city in the world in historical times!  And there is no one.

    It is a pity that Xiao Yi, such a majestic and magnificent eastern capital, Luoyang, could not see its full picture clearly. It was not because of his poor eyesight. As a vulture shooter, Xiao Yi's eyesight level was definitely far superior to that of most people, but because  He quietly came to Luoyang City in the middle of the night when it was dark and windy, and he couldn't see his fingers.

    Originally, at noon, Xiao Yi and other large troops arrived 30 miles outside Luoyang City, and were already within easy reach of the capital. After arriving, the prefect Zhang Yang was not in a hurry to enter the city. Instead, he ordered to set up camp, hold his troops aside for the time being, and at the same time attack the city.  The General's Mansion secretly sent a messenger.

    The sun was setting in the west, and the sky was filled with stars. After it was completely dark, Zhang Yang, who had been sitting quietly all day, quietly got up and changed into casual clothes. He did not alert the large group of people, but asked Xiao Yi to lead a dozen of his confidants to guard him.  Under the cover of night, he secretly arrived at the east gate of Luoyang.

    Xiao Yi understood Zhang Yang's strange behavior very well. Apparently the other party listened to his opinion and decided to side with General He Jin. However, he still had some concerns in his heart, so he acted in secret. This has two advantages.  , Firstly, you must be cautious in military and national affairs that are related to your family and life. Going into the city late at night to plot can prevent the news from leaking. Secondly, you also leave yourself a way out, so that if the political wind direction changes, you will not completely lose yourself.  stick it in.

    As the imperial capital, Luoyang has a strict curfew. At sunset, the city gates must be closed and no pedestrians are allowed to take to the streets. Anyone who violates this will be severely punished. A few years ago, Cao Cao, who was the captain of the northern part of Luoyang, once violated the curfew.  , used a five-color stick to kill the uncle of Qian Shuo, a famous man in front of the imperial court, "Shangjun Xiaowei". This shows the strict security of Luoyang City.

    However, everything is special. The person in charge of the defense of the east gate of Luoyang City is the cavalry general He Miao, and He Miao is the younger brother of the general He Jin. There are people in the court who are easy to do things, and there are people at the gate who are easy to enter the city, so Xiao Yi and his party  The people successfully slipped into the city through the 'Upper East Gate' and secretly drove towards the General's Mansion along the dark alley.

    The residence of General He Jin is located near the North Palace of Luoyang. It is adjacent to Taicang and the arsenal in the east, Taiwei Mansion, Sikong Mansion and Situ Mansion in the south, and the royal forbidden garden Zhuolong Garden in the north. It can be called a first-class wealthy place.  , not only close to the political center, but also has extremely convenient transportation.  Although it was in the misty night, everyone could still see through the dim lights the huge outline of the entire General's Mansion, with its carved beams and painted buildings, resplendent in splendor; the pavilions and buildings, layer upon layer, from this mansion that far exceeded the regulations,  You can see how arrogant this butcher general is. A nouveau riche is a nouveau riche!

    At this time, General He Jin was sitting behind the handsome desk. He was wearing a black high-level military general's uniform, but he looked nondescript. He was in his forties and had an extremely stout figure, a sinewy face, and thick eyebrows.  , a pair of bulging eyes full of arrogance and greed. If he changed his clothes, he would look like a butcher. Yes, he was originally a butcher; just because his half-sister looks like a butcher.  Due to her extraordinary beauty, she was selected into the palace and became the empress of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, and was extremely favored. Relying on Queen He's strong pillow style, He Jin, who was born as a butcher, was first worshiped as a doctor, and then promoted to Hu Ben.  General Zhonglang was appointed as the prefect of Yingchuan. In the third year of Guanghe's reign, he was worshiped as a general and a marquis of Shen. He could be said to be inferior to one person and superior to tens of thousands of people!

    It is precisely because of his humble background that He Jin behaves extremely arrogantly in his daily dealings with others. He is full of pomp and ceremony when he comes in and out, and he is even more courteous in his actions. He has the airs of a general, and he is usually willful and does not listen to others.  It is said that no matter what you do, you should do it according to your own preferences. In fact, this is not difficult to understand. When a lowly person suddenly ascends to a high position, he needs to use this dictatorial style to cover up the deep sense of inferiority in his heart.

    For example, this time, Zhang Yang, the governor of Shangdang, sent a messenger to inform him that he would secretly come to the mansion late at night to discuss military and state affairs together. Someone with a little political savvy would definitely keep a low profile, and please enter the secret room and do all the confidentiality work. Where to go?  On the contrary, not only are there lights and colorful decorations in the lobby,He had known for a long time that the other party was a traitor, but now Xiao Yi's favor for Cao Cao still skyrocketed.  Although as a time traveler, Xiao Yi should have transcended the scope of history, but after all, Xiao Yi is also a mortal with flesh and blood. The indifference and contempt of the high-ranking officials; compared with Cao Cao's concern and regard; "A scholar is a confidant."  Death! No wonder this Duke will have a cloud of counselors and generals like rain in the future!"

    History is so full of puppets!

    Some people have their families and families destroyed because of a trivial matter. Similarly, some people can exchange for a city or even the whole world for a meal or a glass of wine.  Don't do evil because it's small, don't do good because it's small!  Wise words!

    If other people here could have known about Xiao Yi's ability and role in the world's future turmoil, I'm afraid they would have been crying and hugging their thighs, not to mention making them toast, just asking them to kneel down.  They will not shake their heads even if they are served wine on the ground, because compared to a country, all the efforts are worth it.

    "It's a pity that in the entire Three Kingdoms era, only Cao Cao had such vision, mind and courage"Land the Jieshi in the east to see the sea!How magnificent!" (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
