張翼德怒鞭督郵,何國舅謀誅宦豎 - Zhang Fei Whips The Government Officer; He Jin Plots To Kill The Eunuchs

15 張翼德怒... :
武士擁陶出,方欲行刑,一大臣喝住曰:「勿得下手,待我諫去。」眾視之,乃司徒陳耽。逕入室中來諫帝曰:「劉諫議得何罪而受誅?」帝曰:「毀謗近臣,冒朕躬。」耽曰:「天下人民,欲食十常侍之肉,陛下敬之如父母,身無寸功,皆封列侯;況封諝等結連黃巾,欲為內亂:陛下今不自省,社稷立見崩摧矣!」帝曰:「封諝作亂,其事不明。十常侍中,豈無一二忠臣?」陳耽以頭撞階而諫。帝怒,命牽出,與劉陶皆下獄。是夜,十常侍即於獄中謀殺之;假帝韶以孫堅為長沙太守,討區星。

The guards hustled him away and were just about to carry out the Emperor's order when a minister stopped them, shouting, "Strike not! Wait till I have spoken with His Majesty."
It was the Minister of the Interior, Chen Dan. He went in to the Emperor, to whom he said, "For what fault is Counselor Liu Tao to be put to death?"
"He has vilified my servants and has insulted me," said the Emperor.
"All the empire would eat the flesh of the eunuchs if they could, and yet, Sire, you respect them as if they were your parents. They have no merit, but they are created nobles. Moreover, Feng Xu was in league with the Yellow Scarves. Unless Your Majesty looks to it, the state will crumble!"
"There was no proof against Feng Xu," replied the Emperor. "About the Ten Eunuchs, are there none faithful among them?"
Chen Dan beat his forehead on the steps of the throne and did not desist from remonstrance. Then the Emperor grew angry and commanded his removal and imprisonment with Liu Tao. That night Liu Tao and Chen Dan were murdered.
Then the eunuchs sent a forged edict to Sun Jian making him Governor of Changsha, with orders to suppress the rebellion of Ou Xing.
