Chapter 351
Also bold enough to scare people.
And he, unexpectedly, encountered the two women who are currently the most untouchable in this entire Luoyang, and even the entire world.
Can't say this is a coincidence, can only say this is almost heaven-shattering.
But fortunately.
Fortunately, whether it is He Lingman or He Lingsi, they would absolutely never take the initiative to say such things.
Knock, knock, knock!
There was a knock on the door of the side hall.
Followed by the sound of a maid.
"General Duan, the Empress invites you."
The maid outside the door said.
Duan Yu glanced at He Lingman, who was leaning in his arms, and then gently pushed her away.
Then he tidied up the armor on his body.
"I will leave Luoyang tomorrow, find me at the Middle East Gate tonight."
After leaving a sentence, Duan Yu walked toward the outside of the door.
Behind him, He Lingman's beautiful eyes flashed, full of joy and expectation.
Main hall of He Jin's mansion.
He Lingman sat in the main seat.
On both sides were two maids holding cattail fans, kneeling and gently fanning.
The current Governor of Henan and Minister of Works, He Jin, sat to the lower left of Empress He, while He Miao, the Colonel of the Yue Cavalry among the Five Schools of the Northern Army, sat to the lower right of Empress He.
When Duan Yu came in, the three siblings were talking happily.
"Brother." Empress He looked at Duan Yu, who walked in, with a smile and introduced: "Brother, this is the Administrator of Hanyang Commandery, Colonel Who Attacks the Xiongnu, Marquis of Guo, Duan Yu, Duan Ziyi."
He Jin and He Miao both looked at Duan Yu, who walked in from the front of the main hall.
"Haha, General Duan is truly a tiger general of this age," He Jin stood up and laughed loudly: "Luoyang is spreading that General Duan is as fierce as a tiger. Seeing you today, it is truly well-deserved."
"General Duan, please sit." He Jin pointed to the seat beside him.
Empress He nodded with a smile.
"Lord He, Colonel He."
"Empress."
Duan Yu greeted the three of them in turn.
He Miao also greeted Duan Yu with a smile.
"Brother, I came today, one is to visit you, and the other is to recommend General Duan, a talent in Luoyang city, to you."
"In the future, when you and General Duan are officials in the same court, you should help each other."
"General Duan, what do you think of what this palace said?"
Duan Yu nodded, then cupped his hands and bowed to He Lingsi: "This general thanks the Empress for her kindness. In the future, whenever the Empress has any needs, just send me."
The current Han, or Luoyang, is divided into three forces.
One is the eunuchs, headed by the Ten Regular Attendants.
One is the clans, headed by the top clans like the Runan Yuan clan and the Hongnong Yang clan.
The remaining one is the maternal relative He family.
It's just that the He family cannot yet compete with the eunuchs and the clans.
But once He Jin is promoted to Grand General, the power of this maternal relative He family will be formed.
And this opportunity is the Huang Jin Rebellion.
Duan Yu knows very well, in terms of his current status.
He cannot participate in the competition of the three forces at all.
At most, he is just a small character wandering on the edge.
His current playing both sides, or the winning over from all sides, is just something done along the way.
An Administrator is not enough to make the top clans come down to win him over.
Otherwise, the one who would be friends with him would not be Yuan Shao, but a personal meeting with Yuan Kui.
Duan Yu knows this well.
As for Zhang Rang's help, that is the power of money, not that the two really have any connection.
It is He Jin.
In the short term, He Jin cannot help him with anything.
But if he waits until after the Huang Jin Rebellion, when He Jin's power reaches its peak, the benefits he can get from He Jin as a martial general are greater than anyone else's side.
Leaving a good relationship, there will naturally be benefits in the future.
He naturally will not refuse.
With Empress He's recommendation, what followed was a series of boasting official words.
After staying in the main hall for a while, Empress He said she wanted to relax in the courtyard.
"General Duan is visiting my brother's mansion for the first time, so accompany this palace to relax."
Outside the hall, He Jin, He Miao, and others all went to get busy.
Empress He is staying in the mansion today, so the evening banquet and the place to live naturally need to be well arranged.
Duan Yu then followed Empress He's footsteps to stroll around He Jin's mansion.
It is currently June.
In the garden of He Jin's mansion, flowers are blooming, and clear water flows in the rockery ponds in the courtyard.
Empress He, dressed in a phoenix robe, dragged her long tail as she walked on the corridor of the garden, admiring the beautiful scenery on both sides of the garden.
"General Duan is leaving Luoyang tomorrow. After this parting, I don't know when we will meet again."
"This palace has a presumptuous request, can General Duan agree?" Empress He turned to look at Duan Yu with eyes like silk.
Duan Yu bit the bullet and nodded.
He said to himself, as long as you don't ask me to give myself to you, everything else is easy to talk about.
"General Duan..."
"That day in the West Garden, this palace felt that General Duan's chest was unusually warm, giving this palace a feeling of intimacy."
"I don't know if General Duan can..."
"Can you hug this palace again?" Empress He said.
Hiss!
Duan Yu gasped.
But after looking around and seeing no one, Duan Yu bit the bullet and nodded again.
Seeing Duan Yu nod, Empress He's beautiful eyes lit up, and before Duan Yu could react, she took the initiative to throw herself into his arms.
A pair of jade arms tightly wrapped around Duan Yu's waist.
Duan Yu stood stiffly in place.
Fearing that someone would suddenly walk out and see this scene.
Empress He, who had thrown herself into Duan Yu's arms, took a deep breath, and suddenly a flash of surprise passed through her beautiful eyes.
Just as Empress He was surprised and wanted to look up to ask, a woman's cry suddenly came from afar.
"Sister, sister, are you here?"
Duan Yu immediately heard that it was He Lingman's voice, so his body quickly retreated.
He Lingman, with two maids, walked out from a corner of the garden, looking surprised:
"Sister, you really are here."
Duan Yu turned his head and looked at He Lingman awkwardly, then cupped his hands to Empress He and said: "Empress, if there is nothing else, this general will take his leave."
Empress He looked thoughtful, then nodded and said: "General Duan, you may go."
Hearing Empress He's words, Duan Yu finally let out a long sigh of relief, then took his leave and walked in the direction He Lingman came from.
When the two passed each other, He Lingman smiled slightly.
In the octagonal pavilion in the garden.
