I am a bastard in the Three Kingdoms Chapter 074

Chapter 74: Enemy with the Yuan Family It would be extremely difficult for the Yuan Family to replace the Han Dynasty. Even when Dong Zhuo was in chaos, the 18 princes fought against him and entered an era of warlords fighting for power. Yuan Shu had the most fertile land in Huainan and Yangzhou, and he could easily gather an army of 100,000 people, and he had a large number of Yuan family vassals to support him. When he proclaimed himself emperor, he was still spurned by everyone and ended up being torn to pieces.

At that time, the reputation of the Han Dynasty had already dropped, but it was unthinkable to overthrow a dynasty that had lasted for 400 years.

It was also extremely difficult to do so.

A powerful official could have power over the government and the country, but he could not replace the Han Dynasty.

This was the most basic thing.

Even Emperor Hui of the Western Han Dynasty was kept on the bench by Prime Minister Cao Shen.

If he wanted to make some achievements, he would be criticized.

But from beginning to end, he was the emperor and could not be replaced.

The emperor was the emperor.

In fact, Yuan Wei had fallen into a trap. Even if Emperor Ling wanted to target the Yuan family, he had to have a legitimate reason and competent people under him. Otherwise, it would be useless if he had no strength to do so.

Yuan Wei knew that he had already gained a lot in Emperor Ling’s heart. With his status and the strength accumulated by the Yuan family over hundreds of years, even if he agreed, he would not be hated if he behaved openly. The most feared thing for a minister was to offend the emperor. You have to know that the Liu family of the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty were not easy to get along with. They were petty and might find a reason to kill him in the future!

“Yuan Wei is my right arm, and Lu Ming is my sharp sword. How can he be like this?” Emperor Ling saw that how could someone who could make Yuan Wei so angry in such an occasion be used by the Yuan family? Even the Yang family would not easily protect those who were targeted by the Yuan family.

“Lu Ming, you must cultivate your character and respect Yuan Wei in the future.

You are the governor of Longxi County, right? Very good.

Then I now appoint you as the captain of the Xiyuan Army and the governor of Longxi County.

You will train new soldiers for me and return to Longxi County after the term expires!

” Emperor Lingdi promoted Lu Ming’s official position without saying anything.

Next to Longxi County is the Dayuezhi, a nomadic people, and there is also chaos over there.

It is better to say that it is exile than to take office.

No one will go there to serve as a governor.

It is too dangerous.

“I obey your order.” Lu Ming saluted again and accepted the appointment. He felt a little unhappy. Who on earth was plotting against him? Although he got an official position, it was not what he wanted! He didn’t want these, but to return to Longxi County to develop his territory. Now he was forced to stay in Luoyang. Isn’t this a joke?

Serving as the captain of Xiyuan Army in Luoyang and concurrently serving as the county magistrate is simply nonsense!

Seeing that Emperor Lingdi had made up his mind, Yuan Wei was unwilling to see the little bastard in front of him so proud.

So, he bowed again, this time not to start a war, but to set a trap for Lu Ming.

“Your Majesty, there is another piece of news.

The military report from Yanmen County said that Wuhuan invaded Bingzhou, and the prefect of Zhongshan County, Zhang Chun, started a rebellion, joined forces with the Xianbei to attack the border army and assassinated the governor Zhang Yi.

Now the cavalry commander Ding Yuan is leading the people to resist, and he requests reinforcements from the court.

Since Captain Lu is so brave, I recommend Captain Lu to lead the troops to support!

”

This is seeing a fight somewhere, and then pushing him out, this is wanting him to die! Needless to say, there will definitely be a series of measures later.

“Haha, a real man should hold on to his three-foot-high peak and accomplish extraordinary feats.

My ancestors, Lu Ming, have been enjoying the Han Dynasty’s salary for generations.

Although I have no achievements, I can still die on the battlefield and shed my last drop of blood for the Han Dynasty.

” Lu Ming first boasted about himself, then crossed his arms and said, “Your Majesty, I am willing to train new soldiers and lead my troops to defeat the invading enemy and protect the mountains and rivers of the Han Dynasty.

But I am worried that someone will not care about the safety of the country in order to retaliate against me.

By then, there is no need to do anything else, just cut off our army’s food and supplies, and our army will be defeated.

”

This clearly means that Yuan Wei will use his influence to interfere, which is typical villain behavior.

“You fart!” Yuan Wei was so angry that he swore. It was rare to see a former Grand Marshal being angry to this extent.

“I am a villain first and a gentleman later. I speak the truth from my heart in front of Your Majesty. I am not like some people who have great wealth and power. It is like crushing an ant to deal with someone like me who has no foundation. Today, I have a grudge against Lord Yuan. If I don’t doubt Lord Yuan, would I doubt others? Is it because I lost the battle because of the lack of food and grass supplies? Lord Yuan is willing to bear all this?”

Without waiting for Yuan Wei to reply, Lu Ming continued with a sneer, “No, you won’t.

You only think about yourself.

Have you ever seen the people on the border being invaded by foreign races for no reason and their families destroyed? Have you ever seen the victims of the disaster die of hunger from eating Guanyin soil? No, you haven’t.

When you are really hungry, you don’t care whether you can eat something or not, you only care whether you can eat it or not.

Have you ever seen the scene where the bark of trees within a hundred miles is gnawed off? You haven’t seen it at all, and you don’t care about the world!

”

“You haven’t seen it, but I have. Eating one’s own children is just four words in your eyes. I have seen it with my own eyes. It is a pile of meat in the pot in front of them. Lord Yuan, if you really want to contribute to the country, put aside your prejudices and fight against foreign enemies together!” Lu Ming first rants, then mocks, and then ends with comfort and persuasion. He said all the good and bad words, and walked every path, leaving others with no way to go!

The hall was in complete silence. No one had expected that a person from the outside of the Great Wall would have such a sharp answer. Every word was like a steel knife, stabbing straight into the heart.

“Skillful speech, I never thought that a mere warrior could have such ability.” Yuan Wei was so angry that he laughed. After calming down, he stood back to where he was and closed his eyes. “When I helped Your Majesty deal with the affairs of the world, the four words ‘people of the world’ were still on my shoulders. You are not qualified to make irresponsible remarks here.”

A newcomer and an old fox, because of a misunderstanding and a matter about a pit position, started a fierce confrontation. No matter what happens after this incident, Lu Ming will definitely be targeted by the Yuan family, and it is impossible for him to be amnesty. The Yuan family is prosperous and does not need such people, nor does it need to do things like buying horse bones with a lot of money. Their disciples and former officials are all over the world, which is the best proof.
