Sun Ce looked at Pang Tong. He had really considered this issue when he heard what Pang Tong meant?

"Let me tell you, you are not in Chang'an, so what's there to be afraid of?"

"I'm not in Chang'an, but there are people in Chang'an who are well-versed in the art of emperors. It's hard to guarantee that they will give the emperor the same advice."

"Then I need to listen to it even more. If someone really comes up with such an idea for the emperor, I'd be mentally prepared." Sun Ce urged: "Speak quickly, talk quickly, let me see what progress you have made recently."

Pang Tong thought about it and nodded in agreement. "The people around the emperor were roughly divided into three categories: foreign relatives, ministers of the foreign court and eunuchs. Now, the power of foreign relatives is vacant, and the eunuchs were killed by the Yuan brothers. At present, the Western Jing is full of scholars as attendants, and only foreign ministers are in power. Foreign ministers can be divided into two categories: one is party members, who acts more extremely, with Wang Yun as the head; the other is ministers who are well versed in governance, headed by Yang Biao. Zhu Taiwei can also be divided into this category, but his command of troops outside has limited impact on the court, and he can be ignored for the time being."

"The two types of ministers from the foreign court originally had the same goals, and they all wanted to assist the king and seek peace for the world. After the two party corruption, the party members lost confidence in the court and often used fierce means, and even killed a large number of people in the palace. The emperor must be wary of them and did not dare to use them. Yang Biao was once the imperial teacher and had many contacts with the emperor. The Yang family's four generations and three masters were passed down from loyalty and filial piety. The emperor could trust him and use him to check and balance Wang Yun."

Sun Ce kept nodding in agreement. Although he reduced the collection of information in Guanzhong, some situations were not well understood and the delay was very serious, the overall situation was still clear. Yang Biao's entry into the North Korea was a few months ago. Wang Yun has been restrained in the past few months, which is likely because of Pang Tong's analysis.

Is Wang Yun a loyal minister? It is hard to say that he has not been disloyal to the court, whether he has read before or Wang Yun’s performance so far, he has not been decisive to the court. He is like Yuan Shao and wants to change the dynasty and cannot decide. But Wang Yun is a party member, there is no doubt about this, and his relationship with Yuan Shao is obvious to all and irrefutable. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu killed people in the palace, and he, the Henan Yin, had no objection. It is impossible for the emperor Liu Xie, who was nine years old at the time, could not not remember it in his heart.

The emperor is still young and may not know the world, but he knows who is good to him. To the world, Dong Zhuo is a demon that thousands of people refer to, but not to the emperor, because Dong Zhuo not only helped him to the throne, but was not good to him. However, after Dong Zhuo was assassinated by Wang Yun and Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo was killed all over the family, and even the clan left in Longxi could not escape. He was killed completely by Huangfu Song, which was even more cruel than Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo let Huangfu Song go at the beginning. Even if Huangfu Gui's widow humiliated his ancestors in person, he was furious and only killed her, not implicating the Anding Huangfu family.

The more he learned, the less he could believe the history books he had read before, and the more he became disgusted with the habits of the party members. He was really an onlooker. As the party involved, the emperor should have a worse impression of the party members, and it is understandable that he is wary of Wang Yun and others.

In history, after the emperor moved the capital, he once rebuked Wang Yun, gave him a secret weapon in Dongyuan, and appointed his grandson as a marquis. However, this was the emperor's own idea or Cao Cao's idea. No one could say that - Cao Cao and Wang Yun had a good relationship, and Wang Yun's nephew Wang Ling later became an important minister of the Wei State. Even the emperor's own idea may not represent the emperor's original intention, and it is likely to be mixed with political considerations.

Political affairs are complex, not as simple as records on paper.

Pang Tong paused for a moment and then analyzed: "But the morality of Yang Biao and others also hindered them. If the gentleman did not join forces, his strength would be dispersed. Unlike Wang Yun and others who worked together to respond with one call. If Wu Fu had not been able to assassinate Dong Zhuo, Zheng Tai, He Yong and others fled Chang'an, the strength of the party members was greatly reduced, and they would have been defeated long ago. Now the strength of both sides is balanced, and no one can do anything to each other. If Wang Yun wants to break the deadlock, he proposes to serve the king and invite Yuan Shao to the court to take charge. If the emperor wants to balance the gap in strength, he can only choose non-party members to enter the court. Grand Marshal Zhu Gong, general and son are the most suitable candidates."

When Pang Tong said this, he turned to look at Sun Ce and said with a smile: "If the court has an edict and the commander of the imperial court to the east, what would the general think?"

Sun Ce smacked his lips and felt that it was really a bit tricky. The only one who dared to act rashly in the hands of the court was Ma Chao, who could not be so free and easy. "Shi Yuan, it's a blessing that you are not by the emperor." Sun Ce said with emotion: "Of course, I have to thank the old party member Wang Yun for not looking down on our Sun family. He just wanted to kill all the people and didn't want to be comforted."

Pang Tong smiled and was about to say something else, Zhang Fang rushed over, stopped three steps away, bowed to Sun Ce from afar, with a timid look, and secretly looked at Sun Ce, and found that Sun Ce's eyes moved over and then immediately lowered his eyelids.

"General, Grandmaster Zhu ordered you to... go there."

Sun Zheng replied, but did not move. He pointed at Zhu Ling opposite him and said to Pang Tong: "Chang'an is too far away, so you should think about how to deal with Zhu Ling first. How about it, do you have any ideas?"

Pang Tong turned his head and looked at Zhu Ling opposite him. "General, although Zhu Ling is good at fighting, he is not a general's opponent. As long as the general does not make any mistakes, he will not have any chance. I think the general should pay attention to Yuan Tan, after all, he is the governor of Yanzhou."

"Let me tell me." Sun Ce shook the whip with interest.

"Yuan Tan is Yuan Shao's eldest son. He received guidance from many party members when he was young. After becoming an adult, he followed Yuan Shao to fight in Hebei and had some practical experience. This is his first time to command troops. I don't know how many people are waiting to see his performance. He must want to become famous in one battle. The best way is to defeat the general."

Sun Ce agreed with Pang Tong's opinion that the best way for young people who are just starting out to become famous is to challenge the famous seniors. He is not a senior, but he is also famous. If Yuan Tan can defeat him, the first battle to lead troops independently will be successful.

He and Yuan Tan were tacit, but if they had the chance to kill him, Yuan Tan would not let him go. Yuan Tan is still near Junyi, but the distance is not far. Once he and Zhu Ling fight together, Yuan Tan may appear at any time. At that time, whether to fight or to reconcile, the initiative will be no longer in his hands.

"You and Mr. Zigang, please discuss with me. I will go to Mr. Zhu's camp first and come back to discuss it. Mr. Zhu suddenly asked me to go, afraid that the rush to collect is about to end and the war can be started."

Pang Tong responded. Sun Ce took Dian Wei and Chen Dao and rushed to Zhuyi camp with Zhang Fang. The two camps followed each other for about ten miles, and there were golden rice fields along the way, and soldiers rushing to harvest were everywhere. These people were not very good at fighting, but they were good at harvesting crops and were very enthusiastic. Seeing Sun Ce and others passing by the road, many people stood up and greeted Sun Ce.

Zhang Fang saw it and was envious. Sun Ce was not the Shangguan of these soldiers, but he got along so well with them. This was not a matter of high and small officials, but a personal charm. In contrast, he, the young marshal of the Black Mountain Army, was much worse, and he relied more on his father Zhang Yan's strength and prestige.
