Chapter 56 The General of Yulin

However, this is only theoretically. During the Western Han Dynasty, Zheng Xiaoming was definitely under the jurisdiction of this Guangluxun.

But in the current Eastern Han Dynasty, Guangluxun was just Zheng Xiaoming's nominal boss! In fact, Zheng Xiaoming is now directly under the jurisdiction of Emperor Liu Hong.

It’s not right. Emperor Liu Hong is so busy. He has to have fun with so many beauties every day, so where can he take care of Zheng Xiaoming if he has time?

So what Zheng Xiaoming really accepts now is the jurisdiction of Jian Shuo, Xiaohuangmen!

In short, after Zheng Xiaoming visited this Guanglu Xunding Palace, he walked out with a confused look on his face.

Ding Gong just saw Zheng Xiaoming casually and sent him away.

It’s not that Ding Gong dislikes Zheng Xiaoming so much, this guy is actually related to the eunuch power. The Ding family in Pei State and the local Cao family have been intermarried for generations. That’s right, it’s Cao Cao and his family!

The main reason is that in order to avoid suspicion, Ding Gong expressed that I did not want to interfere in the military power in the palace at all!

However, visiting Ding Gong is just a polite way. When you meet him, you can give him some gifts.

Then Zheng Xiaoming wants to meet his real immediate boss Jian Shuo, which is the most difficult level!

That’s right, it’s the Jian Shuo who was beaten to death by Cao Cao with a five-color stick!

When Zheng Xiaoming saw Jian Shuo, he saw a large construction site. It was Nangong's reconstruction project!

In the seventh year of Guanghe, the Yellow Turban rebelled. The emperor Liu Hong changed the reign to Zhongping, which meant that the world was peaceful.

However, unexpectedly, this change of year name was useless. The Yellow Turban Rebellion in the first year of Zhongping was just pacified, and in February of the following year, a fire broke out in the Nangong Palace in the palace.

Luoyang Imperial Palace is divided into the north and south palaces, connected by corridors in the middle. The Nangong is the living place of the emperor and concubines, which means that the bedrooms of the emperor and concubines were burned, so it will naturally need to be rebuilt!

However, the Yellow Turbans had just been wiped out, and the world was in ruins, and the court treasury was empty and the mouse was starved to death, so it was definitely not possible to provide the money for rebuilding.

So Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong came up with a bad idea to increase the land tax nationwide, with ten cents per acre. That emperor Liu Hong actually agreed!

The Yellow Turban Rebellion was a rebellion that the people in the world could not survive. However, the Yellow Turban had just been pacified, and the emperor Liu Hong did not want to appease the people, and he actually had to collect land taxes. This was simply adding fuel to the fire!

The result is that the Yellow Turban, which had just been extinguished, rekindled again...

So at this moment, Zheng Xiaoming looked at the Nangong that was about to be rebuilt, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart!

If the Han Dynasty had changed to a more reliable emperor, it would not have been so in such a situation!

Many ministers who advised Liu Hong for this matter were arrested by Liu Hong!

Yes, from Liu Hong's perspective, I am an emperor, and the whole world is mine. Now my house is burned, so what's wrong with rebuilding a house?

As for the lives and death of the people, they have never taken them in his eyes!

Soon, Zheng Xiaoming arrived in the palace and saw his immediate boss Jian Shuo!

This king is as famous as his name, and he is indeed Jian Shuo. He is eight feet tall and powerful. He is even a beard, and he doesn't look like a castrator at all.

No wonder Jian Shuo was valued by Emperor Liu Hong since the Yellow Turban Rebellion last year. Therefore, although this lord is not of high rank, he is just a small yellow sect. However, he has great power and is responsible for the safety of the palace. He is considered a rising star of the eunuchs in the palace!

It is precisely because of this that Zheng Xiaoming, who came in with Zhang Rang, was not favored by Jian Shuo. Although he did not dare to suppress it openly, it was inevitable that he would wear all kinds of small shoes in secret.

Who made Jian Shuo, the rising star, suppressed by Zhang Rang?

Zhang Rang made Zheng Xiaoming into the Central Army General of the Yulin and obviously had no intention of being happy, and deliberately put nails within Jian Shuo's sphere of influence.

After all, everyone knows that military power is the most important. Jian Shuo commands all the military power in the palace. If he wants to kill Zhang Rang and others at any time... he has to be careful!

Even if he was the emperor Liu Hong, he would have the intention of checking and balancing the ten regular attendants of Zhang Rang, but he would not foolishly let Jian Shuo take over the power alone, so he agreed to let Zheng Xiaoming, who was recommended by Zhang Rang, be the Central Army General of the Yulin.

In short, in this complicated situation, Zheng Xiaoming, the Yulin Central Army general, naturally took it as cautious and very frustrated.

Fortunately, Zheng Xiaoming still has support behind him.

Although He Miao is not as powerful as the general He Jin, his relationship with Empress He seems to be closer to him, as a person with a foreign surname.

Therefore, Zheng Xiaoming naturally became Queen He's man.

Then Empress He was the lord of the harem and had great power in the harem. With her support, Zheng Xiaoming's life was much better, so Jian Shuo did not dare to act rashly on him.

Moreover, Emperor Liu Hong seemed to remember that Zheng Xiaoming was a skilled craftsman who had helped him build a carriage or something.

Therefore, sometimes on a whim, Zheng Xiaoming will help you build something.

Zheng Xiaoming remembered that Emperor Liu Hong liked swimming, especially when the swimming pool was full of beauties...

This made Zheng Xiaoming complain in his heart, wouldn’t this emperor Liu Hong also be a time traveler, right? Otherwise, how could he have such a hobby?

He was determined to help make swimsuits like bikinis, but he couldn't make nylon rubber, that's fine.

I can only find ways to create a few fountains and other things!

This won the favor of Emperor Liu Hong and was rewarded continuously.

As Zheng Xiaoming became more favored in the palace, Jian Shuo became more and more afraid of Zheng Xiaoming, but he did not dare to deal with Zheng Xiaoming easily.

Zheng Xiaoming originally planned to build a mansion in Luoyang and then take Yinlinzi to Luoyang. However, after hearing this, Emperor Liu Hong personally gave Zheng Xiaoming a mansion.

This saves Zheng Xiaoming a lot of trouble!

At this time, it was already four years in Zhongping.

Just as Zheng Xiaoming expected at the beginning, after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the world not only did not become peaceful, but instead became more and more chaotic.

First of all, in the court, the battle between the eunuch group and the scholar group became increasingly fierce.

Fortunately, Zheng Xiaoming's main backer was his relatives, He Miao and Empress He. Zhang Rang was just by the way...

Because Empress He and Zhang Rang and other ten regular attendants are also political allies!

Therefore, the fierce battle between the eunuchs and scholars group did not affect him.

In the court, eunuchs and scholars fought to the death.

The local area is not peaceful, and the battle situation in Liangzhou has not ended, and the corruption continues to deteriorate.

In the Youzhou side, Zhang Chun rebelled.

In the Jizhou area, the Yellow Turban Remnants of Heishan Army rose again, with a huge momentum, with a population of hundreds of millions.
