Late at night - Xuanwu Street, the residence of the abbot, the lights are bright, the voices are boiling, a grand birthday banquet is underway, I see that the guests are full of friends, all of them are the nobles of Zhu Zi, the drums are ringing, all are the sound of the glamour, people raise their glasses to drink, talk and laugh!

There are also a team of beautiful maids, constantly sending delicacies, animals in the mountains, swallows in the clouds, land cattle and sheep under the sea, monkey head bird's nest, shark fin, bear's paws, dried scallops and deer tail tips...... Everything you need, all you can enjoy!

In fact, the 50th birthday of the end of the year will not arrive until half a month later, but the birthday of a politician is always changed as needed, and it is normal to advance a few days or postpone it a few days, even if you have seven or eight birthdays a year, it is not uncommon!

Fu Wan was born illustriously, as the seventh grandson of the Western Han Dynasty famous minister - the great Situ Fu Zhan, the generation of the lord 'not its marquis', young and intelligent, the first filial piety, and later moved to the official Lang General, the servant, and married the eldest daughter of Emperor Han Huan - Yang'an Princess Liu Hua as his wife, in other words, Fu Wan is also the son-in-law of the Liu family, so he is loyal and loyal to the Han family!

After the love of husband and wife, he gave birth to six sons, De, Ya, Jun, Zun, Lang, and Dian, all of whom were full of poetry and books, and had outstanding talents, and gave birth to a daughter Fu Shou, that is, Liu Xie's queen of the main palace!

After the famous minister, the hereditary title, both as a concubine and as the abbot, plus as an official for many years, the party is all over the world, so that Fu Wan has a very high prestige, although there is no real power in his hands, but he is a well-deserved nobleman!

When such a character celebrates his birthday, it is natural that hundreds of officials come to congratulate and the guests are full, even if they are at odds with Fushou Zheng, such as Cao Cao, Xiao Yi, and Xiahoudun...... also sent someone to send a birthday gift, no matter how hostile the two sides are, they still have to get by on face!

"Today's father's birthday banquet, thank you for coming to congratulate, and please raise a glass to drink, let's not get drunk and not return!"

"Drink well! - Win the drink! --The two sons win the drink! ”

…………………………

The person who presided over the banquet in the lobby was the eldest son-Fu De, the second son-Fu Ya, Fu Wan and several other sons, and after coming out and turning around, they hid in the back to rest in the name of being invincible!

In addition, several important people among the guests, either pretending to be drunk or changing clothes, also secretly left their seats and walked to the back of the mansion!

Sharp-eyed officials found out about these special circumstances, but pretended not to know, and continued to raise their glasses and drink, above the banquet of the top nobles, if there is no political conspiracy, it is abnormal!

"His Majesty the Emperor congratulates the arrival of the gift, and I wish the Lord Guozhang - blessings such as the East China Sea, longevity than Nanshan!"

In the middle of the feast, a group of palace servants poured into the door, the leader - wearing a pointed hat, wearing a soap coat, holding a hardcover scroll, it was the emperor's henchman eunuch - Ming Qing!

Liu Xiegui is the son of heaven and the son-in-law of Fu Wan, and now that his father-in-law has a big birthday, he naturally has to express it, in addition to longevity peaches, longevity noodles, longevity cakes, and longevity accounts...... I also wrote a scroll by hand to show respect!

"My father is drunk and lying in the back hall, I can't welcome the birthday ceremony, and I ask His Majesty the Emperor to forgive his sins, and the ministers Fude and Fuya greet the angels on behalf of their fathers, and thank Your Majesty for their caring heart!"

The two sons of the Fu family did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly went out to greet and kneel to thank the angels, and the guests also followed, bowing three times and nine knocking on the gifts, and the birthday gift was sent by the emperor, which is equivalent to the emperor himself!

"Your Majesty learned of the birthday of the father-in-law, so he personally wrote a banner and asked the slave to send it to the house, please watch it carefully and figure out Your Majesty's caring heart!"

In front of the guests, Ming Qing slowly opened the banner, on which the dragon flew and the phoenix danced, and four big characters - 'Loyal Minister Liangfu!' ’

Then he handed it into the hands of Volde, and at the same time, he used his body to block the surrounding vision, and his little thumb was on the wooden shaft of the banner, and he gently tapped it three times!

"Your Majesty is so loving, your subordinates will never forget, the royal pen must be enshrined in the ancestral hall, bow day and night, and comprehend the holy grace!"

Fu De is also a smart person, nodded slightly, took the imperial banner with both hands, handed it to his younger brother Fu Ya, and asked him to send it to the ancestral hall behind, while he stood up and entertained Ming Qing to the banquet and drink!

Liu Xie was in the palace, he was already waiting anxiously, Ming Qing dared to delay, and after a few humble words, he took people back to the palace, of course, he didn't run in vain, and he had an extra fifty taels of gold in his arms, and the rest of the palace slaves also had their own benefits!

"Da! -Da! -Da...... Da! Da! ”

Besides, Fu Ya held the imperial banner, ran all the way to the ancestral hall behind, and first asked a few henchmen to guard the door, not allowing anyone to approach, and then walked into the ancestral hall, but did not enshrine the banner, but tapped on a wall...... Three long and two short, slow and urgent!

"Long! --Prosperous! Prosperous! ”

A moment later, there was a rumbling sound in the wall, and a square secret door appeared, and out of it came two young men wearing iron armor and holding swords, which were the third son of the Fu family, Fu Jun, and the fourth son Fu Zun!

The three brothers got together, bowed their heads and talked a few words, Fu Jun and Fu Zun took the imperial banner, and retreated back to the secret door, Fu Ya also returned to the lobby, continued to drink with the guests, everything was done seamlessly!

Besides, Liu Xie's imperial banner, after two changes of hands and three secret doors, was finally sent into a secret room, the secret room is three zhang square, the boulder is repaired, the molten iron is poured, the location is hidden, the sound insulation effect is excellent, the lights inside are dim, and there are a few figures faintly!

One of them picked up the banner, first shone it on the lamp, then tapped the scrolls at both ends, then pulled out a dagger, cut the scroll below, and carefully pulled out a roll of white silk, which was stained with blood, and it turned out to be the emperor's own handwritten blood letter:

"I have heard that the people are great, and the father and son come first; Recently, thieves have seized power, bullied the monarch's father, formed party alliances, and corrupted the dynasty............ Entangled the martyrs of both loyalty and righteousness, annihilated the traitorous party, and restored the society, the ancestors were very fortunate! ”

According to historical conventions, the courtiers must think of the king of Bingqin, and there must be an edict from the emperor to order people with lofty ideals in the world.

Of course, it is best to have a real edict, after all, it is a great crime to fake the emperor's will, but it is a great crime to exterminate the clan, and for the diehards of the Han family, it is a great crime of disrespect!

However, the emperor was under house arrest in the deep palace, surrounded by Cao's minions, and the edict could not be sent out at all, so he thought of a plan to take advantage of the opportunity of the birthday banquet to hide the blood edict in the banner scroll, and let the eunuch Mingqing send it to the Guozhang Mansion!

Several people put the blood edict on the table, knelt three times and bowed nine times, trembling all over, but they didn't dare to make any sound, through the dim light, they finally saw the situation clearly, there were four people in the secret room, they were:

Fu Wan - Emperor Huan's concubine, now the head of the country, represents the emperor's relatives and relatives group, and holds the emperor's own blood edict, can justifiably command the world and destroy the ministers!

Yang Biao - the veteran of the Four Dynasties, the successive three dukes, represents the Shi clan gate valve group, has great appeal, in addition, his son Yang Xiu and Cao Zhi have a deep relationship, so he knows a lot about the inside story of the Prime Minister's Mansion!

Kong Rong - the nineteenth grandson of Confucius, the leading figure of Confucianism, represents a group of literary scholars, don't look at it as a group of nerds, but can control the direction of public opinion and create momentum for the coup!

Wang Yi - once served as the Taishou of Hedong, the Marquis of Anyang Pavilion, was very honest as an official, and was even supported by the army and the people, because of political loyalty to the Han family, and was transferred to the imperial court by Cao Cao, and vacated the power with a vacant position, and has been silent for several years!

Although he has lost his real power, Wang Yi is both civil and military, shrewd and capable, and has a lot of contacts with county guards and county orders in various places, so he can be a representative of the local group and a force to be reckoned with!

This time, the die-hard Han family gathered, plotted to eradicate the traitorous male, and returned to the Han Dynasty, originally made an appointment with six people, but two did not come, one is Xun You, who is in Cao Ying's heart in Han, and the other is a wealthy businessman with countless family assets - Chen Chen!

Although Xun You is loyal to the Han family, after all, he has been in Cao Ying for many years, and Cao Cao has no name as a master and minister, but he has the fact of a master and minister, although he is unwilling to help Cao usurp Han, he also does not want to hurt Cao Cao and fall into a charge of 'killing the master', so he did not come to participate in the conspiracy!

Of course, as a loyal minister of the Han family, Xun You will not tell the truth, he just wants to do things according to his heart, but unfortunately there is no double perfect method, neither Han nor Cao, when he knew about the conspiracy, he was already involved!

Those who want to achieve great things must have money to support them, so that they can recruit troops, buy horses, accumulate grass and grain, and then build an assembly force, and the same is true for raising troops to fight against Cao Cao, and Chen Chen is a wealthy businessman, and he also represents Xuzhou Commercial Group!

In recent years, relying on the sale of refined salt, Xuzhou businessmen have made a windfall and made a lot of money, but the people's hearts are not satisfied, and after having a few sao money in their hands, they began to chase political interests!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Fu Wan wantonly wooed Xuzhou merchants, and promised countless benefits, as long as they are willing to pay money, they will inevitably have high-ranking officials to sit and horses to ride in the future......

The two sides have reached an agreement, but I don't know what happened, in the past half a month, the businessmen who originally gathered in Xuchang, there is no one left, and Fu sent people to contact around, but there was no response at all, and the matter of donating money was also in vain!

Without abundant funds, you can't envy the dead in large numbers, buy weapons, war horses, for the coup is extremely unfavorable, fortunately, the merchants only know how to donate money to seek officials, but they don't know the use of money, and they are not afraid of them to tell the truth!

The blood edict has been issued, the people have gathered, as if they are about to send an arrow, and then, the four of them sat together to discuss the specific details of the coup............
