When Empress He Jin wanted to kill the eunuchs, Empress Dowager He objected, and Yuan Shao proposed to summon The Four Fang Haojie to the capital and jointly punish the eunuchs. Although both Cao Cao and Chen Lin were fiercely opposed, He Jin adopted Yuan Shao's idea.
It was under this circumstance that Dong Zhuo responded to the call of the emperor and He Jin and entered Luoyang as Haojie of Hezhou. Dong Zhuo was ordered to enter the capital, and it was he Jin and Yuan Shao's suggestion, so there was no problem. Ding Yuan also entered Beijing at this time.
However, before Dong Zhuo reached Luoyang, He Jin was killed by the eunuchs, and the brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu killed the eunuchs. It was under this circumstance that Dong Zhuo entered Beijing.
The first thing Dong Zhuo did when he entered the capital was to rescue the driver at Mount Yao, and he met the emperor and King Chen Liu, who were fleeing. It was immediately discovered that Emperor Liu Xie was too cowardly, and Liu Xie, the King of Chenliu, performed very well. And Liu Xie, the King of ChenLiu, was also the heir advocated by the former Emperor Han Ling, so Dong Zhuo had the intention of deposing Liu Xie and establishing Liu Xie.
However, Dong Zhuo's first substantive action was to hide the sky and cross the sea, because he only brought 3,000 troops too little, so he entered the city with great fanfare during the day, sneaked out at night, and then entered the city with great fanfare the next day. Such repetition caused the illusion that his own soldiers and horses were constantly entering Luoyang.
Then Dong Zhuo used the illusion of his strong soldiers to fool He Jin's younger brother He Miao, so that the people and horses left by He Jin also joined Dong Zhuo's department, and then Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses really reinforced a batch, so that Dong Zhuo's waist pole suddenly became thicker.
Dong Zhuo then brought up the matter of abolishing Liu Xie and establishing Liu Xie. Ding Yuan resolutely opposed, and as a result, Dong Zhuo instigated Lü Bu to betray and kill Ding Yuan, and Ding Yuan's men and horses also returned to Dong Zhuo. Although Yuan Shao was influential, Xiu Cai encountered soldiers and could not explain the reason, and for a time Dong Zhuo's influence in Luoyang far exceeded that of Yuan Shao.
Then Dong Zhuo began to operate the abolition of Liu Xie, originally Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang at The suggestion of Yuan Shao, but he did not expect that such a big head of garlic came out of ten acres of land. Yuan Shao also resolutely supported Liu Xie and opposed Liu Xie, at this time Yuan Shao jumped out against Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo himself was also confused, it was Yuan Shao's idea to enter Luoyang himself, and it was Yuan Shao who opposed him now. However, Yuan Shao's influence was pending, and Dong Zhuo still had to win over, but Liu Xie's proposition dong Zhuo remained unchanged. In Dong Zhuo's view, the merit of supporting The establishment of the merit is very beneficial to himself, but the establishment of such a clever emperor as Liu Xie is also beneficial to the world.
Yuan Shao refused Dong Zhuo's solicitation, and the servant ran away. In view of the fact that his hometown of Runan was the sphere of influence of Yuan Shu, the concubine of the Yuan family, he ran to Hebei, where the Yuan family was also very influential.
Dong Zhuo's political skills were obviously much smarter than He Jin's, and even though Yuan Shao opposed him, Dong Zhuo still gave Yuan Shao Bohai Taishou such a high-ranking official of two thousand stones to appease. Regardless of whether Yuan Shao was satisfied or not, Dong Zhuo at least appeased Yuan Shao and gave the world a tolerant image.
The first thing Dong Zhuo did after establishing Liu Xie as emperor was to avenge Liu Xie, because Empress He was Liu Xie's mother-killer and an accomplice to the murder of Empress Dowager Dong, who raised Liu Xie's grandmother. Dong Zhuo demoted Empress He to Empress Yong'an, expelled her from the core system, and killed Empress He. This is definitely a big bad breath for Liu Xie.
Then, under the auspices of Dong Zhuo, dou wu and Chen Fan were restored to honor, reusing their sons, lifting the party ban, reusing Qingliu celebrities, and washing the Han Ling Emperor's policy of cracking down on the Haoqiang clan and reusing the Shu clan. This is an act of wooing the powerful clan.
And Dong Zhuo's own people, Li Dai, Guo Feng, Niu Fu, Li Ru, and other absolute concubines were only officials at the rank of lieutenant, and even if Lü Bu was newly cast, he only had the role of a lieutenant, and did not let them chicken dogs ascend to heaven.
Judging from Dong Zhuo's operations, he vigorously supported Liu Xie and avenged Liu Xie, and vigorously co-opted the Haoqiang clan to lift the party ban, and even Yuan Shao, who was resolutely opposed to himself, gave it to a high-ranking official of Bohai Taishou. There was no large-scale promotion of his own concubines, but Dong Zhuo himself became an auxiliary minister, and Dong Zhuo also wanted to make a move to make a difference in his efforts.
But Yuan Shao did not buy it, and Cao Cao also made a move to assassinate himself. Immediately after that, Yuan Shao formed the Kwantung Coalition Army and began a large-scale crusade against Dong Zhuo. Yuan Shao also did not buy the new emperor Liu Xie, and taking Luoyang was definitely to abolish Liu Xie and re-establish Liu Xie as emperor.
Dong Zhuo had no choice but to kill Liu Jie under such circumstances, cut off Yuan Shao's thoughts, and at the same time moved the capital to Chang'an.
Yuan Shao lost his aggressiveness toward Luoyang under such circumstances and began to return to Hebei to expand his power, but even then Yuan Shao did not intend to recognize Liu Xie's status as emperor, and was ready to make Liu Yu, a highly respected clan member, emperor, because of Liu Yu's resolute opposition.
At the same time, Yuan Shao constantly greeted the officials in the court and asked them to find an opportunity to kill Dong Zhuo, so Dong Zhuo was assassinated and assassinated by these officials one after another.
Dong Zhuo finally went crazy under such circumstances, and these masters did not cooperate in how to serve, so the beastly hair lost its senses and began to commit large-scale atrocities.
So what followed was Dong Zhuo's massacre, a series of atrocities. Then Wang Yun Lü Bu murdered Dong Zhuo, then Li Dai Guo Killed Wang Yun, Lü Bu fled, and Liu Xie's court had no prestige to speak of, so that the ministers starved to death.
From the Han Ling Emperor set up the Hongdu Gate to learn, he began to fight with the imperial court. Yuan Shao single-handedly operated, first letting He Jin's foreign relatives group and Zhang Rang's eunuch group, the two pillars of imperial power, kill each other, and then solving the winning eunuch group with his own hands, which was a perfect operation.
Then Dong Zhuo was fooled into beijing by Yuan Shao, and then Yuan Shao did not cooperate with Dong Zhuo, and finally made Dong Zhuo lose his mind, from deposing the emperor to killing the empress, digging up the imperial tomb, and massacring the ministers and people at will, and finally swept away the last dignity of the imperial court, and the world fell into chaos.
And Dong Zhuo's operation was destroyed, and Yuan Shao was also using this to warn other princes, don't toss blindly if you have no family, otherwise Dong Zhuo is your end. It is to kill people with a knife and then achieve the purpose of killing two birds with one stone to scare the monkeys.
Although Yuan Shao's plan to establish Liu Yu failed, it didn't matter at this time. Because the prestige of the imperial court was swept away, the Yuan family, represented by the Haoqiang clan, became the new banner.
Therefore, Yuan Shu was in the south and Yuan Shao was in the north, becoming the two most powerful forces in the chaotic world, and Yuan Shao finally stepped on the ruins of the Han Empire and walked to the peak of his life.
