Three Kingdoms Struggle for Hegemony

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, in 189, the sixth year of Zhongping, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty died. Liu Bian, the Young Emperor of the Han Dynasty, succeeded to the throne, and his relative He Jin assisted the government. He Jin conspired with the aristocratic bureaucrat Yuan Shao to kill the eunuchs, and secretly summoned the Liangzhou warlord Dong Zhuo to the capital despite the opposition of the court officials. Later, because the conspiracy was leaked, He Jin was killed by the eunuch Zhang Rang and others. Yuan Shao took the opportunity to lead troops into the palace, killed all the eunuchs, and took control of the court. Dong Zhuo then led his army into Luoyang and led He Jin's tribe. He also ordered Lu Bu to kill Jinwu Dingyuan and annex their troops, and he also killed the ministers. As a result, his power became stronger and he was able to control the army and govern well.
