In the winter of the seventeenth year of Jianwu (41 AD), Liu Xiu decided to depose Guo Shengtong, and after the edict was prepared, Liu Xiu secretly ordered Da Changqiu to prepare for the ceremony, and ordered Yin Xing to assist from the side. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoAfter Yin Xing learned that Liu Xiu was going to depose Guo Shengtong and establish Yin Lihua, his first reaction was to admonish.

Liu Xiu understood Yin Xing, and when Yin Xing was on his knees, Liu Xiu said: "I have made up my mind, Aiqing doesn't need to say much." ”

Yin Xing's heart is naturally happy and happy to see this, and the exhortation is just a gesture that should be on the surface, since Liu Xiuyan has come to this, Yin Xing has not dissuaded Liu Xiu from deposing Guo Shengtong, but he still has to advise him for the post-sealing ceremony, he said to Liu Xiu: "Although Your Majesty has made a decision, Ranweichen still asks Your Majesty to think twice." If Your Majesty still does not change her original intention and insists on deposing the queen, then ask Your Majesty not to hold the grand ceremony of the queen, because the death of the mother and brother of the minister is approaching; Second, it is not suitable for His Majesty and Yin nobles. ”

Yin Xing said, Liu Xiu actually thought about it, but he didn't want to wronged Yin Lihua, so he decided to hold a ceremony after the sealing, but the death date of Yin Deng and Yin Xin was neglected by him, so Liu Xiu felt hesitant again, he said: "It is a big deal after the establishment, and I don't want to wronged the nobles." ”

Yin Xing said: "The nobles have always been frugal, if you know Your Majesty's heart, it is enough." ”

Liu Xiu listened, thought about it carefully, and felt that what Yin Xing said was reasonable, Yin Lihua has never liked extravagance and waste, the celebration may not be important to Yin Lihua at all, the mind is what Yin Lihua values most, since the time cannot be done, Liu Xiu can only compensate Yin Lihua more in the future.

On October 19, Liu Xiu issued an edict to depose the queen Guo Shengtong, and set up the noble Yin Lihua as the queen. It has nothing to do with the virtue of Ju, but has the wind of Lu and Huo, how can it be entrusted to the young orphan and respectful worship. Today, send the great Situ She, Zong Zhengji to hold the festival, and the queen and queen are scarf. Yin nobles have a good family in the township, and they return to the lowly. 'The self is gone, in the present three years. 'It is advisable to worship the temple and be the mother of the world. The master details the old scriptures, and the time is honored. Abnormal things, non-national holidays, not birthday celebrations.

At this point, the Manchu Dynasty was silent. There is no need to go into detail about private favors and political reasons.

Only Zhang Zhan, the prince who advocates loyalty and integrity, is said to be sick. Liu Xiuqiang was a big situ but couldn't. Silence is a struggle, and silence is an insight. Seventeen years after Guo Hou is abolished, will the prince be far away? In the face of the reality that the will cannot be transferred, this prince and the prince destroyed his image, fell in court, and cut off his career.

At the same time, the prince's lecturer Zhi Yun said to Liu Xiu: "The minister hears the good of the couple, the father can't get it from the son, and the minister can get it from the king?" It's something that the minister doesn't dare to say. Although, may Your Majesty read it, and do not be incestuous and incest, so that there will be people in the world who will discuss the society. Zhi Yun borrowed Sima Qian's famous sentence, that is, "The conclusion of the marriage relationship, the relationship between husband and wife, if it is good, it can prosper the country, and if it is bad, it can destroy the family and destroy the country", to show Liu Xiu: Between husband and wife, the son cannot control the father, let alone the courtier to the emperor. So I don't dare to express my opinion on the private affairs of such a couple. However, I hope that Your Majesty will consider that this is not okay, and not mess up Da Lun (the relationship between husband and wife), and let the world talk about the society a lot.

Liu Xiu replied to this: "Be kind and forgive yourself, and know that I will not be influenced by the sky." This means that this kind of behavior will never happen again.

Subsequently, Liu Xiu named Guo Shengtong's son Liu Fu, the son of Youyi, as the king of Zhongshan, and after the abolition of Guo's family as the queen mother of Zhongshan, she lived in the North Palace, and was assigned to Zhongshan with Changshan County, and Guo Shengtong was raised by two counties. made Guo Shengtong the third woman in the history of the Han Dynasty to be crowned the "Queen Mother" without dying. At the same time, he also appeased Empress Guo's mother's family. Guo Guo migrated to the great country and became the Marquis of Yang'an. Guo Shengtong was from his brother Guo Jing, who had meritorious service in the expedition as a cavalry captain, and was named the Marquis of Xinyi, and the official was the minister of the East China Sea. Guo Jing's younger brother Guo Kuang is the marquis of Fagan, and the official is a doctor in Taizhong. Guo Shengtong's uncle Guo Liang died early and had no children. Including the son-in-law of Nanyang Chen Mao, a relative surnamed Guo, who was also named Nan * Hou. Since then, although Guo Shengtong has lost his position, the Guo family is still in good spirits.

Guo Shengtong was deposed and moved from the West Palace to the North Palace, which was not a good thing, so no one returned to the North Palace to congratulate Guo Shengtong on his housewarming, but before Guo Shengtong left the West Palace, he saw Yin Lihua, who he hadn't seen for a long time. Seeing the still graceful Yin Lihua, Guo Shengtong was jealous but still able to calm down and greet him with a smile. "See the Queen."

Yin Lihua hurriedly stretched out her hand and walked forward to help Guo Shengtong up, and she said to Guo Shengtong: "The Queen Mother of Zhongshan doesn't need to be polite. ”

The title of "Queen Mother of Zhongshan" made Guo Shengtong's body stiffen, and then deftly took off Yin Lihua's hands, stepped back a little respectfully, and did not say a word.

Yin Lihua looked at Guo Shengtong who was standing in front of her obediently in silence, and did not feel the slightest happiness in her heart, although it seemed that she had won today, but in fact she did not win, Guo Shengtong took retreat as advance, earned freedom for himself, and won glory and wealth for the Guo family. Yin Lihua couldn't tell whether she hated or respected Guo Shengtong at this moment, and it took a long time for her to say to Guo Shengtong: "If the Queen Mother of Zhongshan moves the palace, just report it to Da Changqiu." ”

Guo Shengtong responded calmly: "Thank you, Queen Longen, the concubine is unforgettable." ”

When Yin Lihua heard this, she smiled and said, "In the past, the Queen Mother of Zhongshan treated the palace quite favorably, and the palace today is just a courtesy. The Queen Mother of Zhongshan, please rest assured, as long as there is this palace in the future, you will be able to live a prosperous life. ”

Guo Shengtong couldn't help sneering in his heart for this, and replied without changing his face: "The concubine has thanked the queen in advance. ”

Yin Lihua saw that Guo Shengtong did not show the slightest sign of anger, and couldn't help but look sideways, at this moment, Yin Lihua finally believed that Guo Shengtong, who was calm and wise in the past, was back, perhaps after the baptism of time and detention, Guo Shengtong became deeper than before, and as a result, Yin Lihua clearly understood that her next road would be more difficult than before. She took a deep look at Guo Shengtong, and then raised her voice to order the palace people: "From now on, treat the Queen Mother of Zhongshan as if it were this palace, and if there is any neglect, it will be punished according to the crime of great disrespect." With that, he turned and left.

Guo Shengtong looked at Yin Lihua's departing shadow, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and secretly said to Yin Lihua in his heart: The road is long, let's fight and go, and see who kills the deer.

On October 22, Liu Xiu took Yin Lihua Xingzhang Mausoleum to repair the ancestral cemetery and temple, worship the old house, inspect the fields and farmhouses, set wine for fun, and assemble the clan, regardless of men and women, old and young, and have to attend, all have rewards. At that time, the aunts, aunts, and aunts of the Liu clan were happy because they drank heartily, and said together: "Liu Xiu was cautious and trustworthy when he was a child, and he was not diligent in socializing with people, he only knew softness, and he had no quarrels, who would have thought that he would be so honored today!" ”

When Liu Xiu heard about it, he laughed and said, "I am in charge of the world, and I also want to practice judo." When the clan heard this, they rejoiced. Until the moonlight is like silver, the feast is over.

The people of the clan started overnight, framed Liu Xiu's words that night, and enshrined them in the ancestral temple, bowed and worshipped, and did not dare to forget.

Liu Xiu ordered a division to set up an ancestral hall for the Chungling clan, and then returned to the palace. In December, he returned to Luoyang from Zhangling. (To be continued.) )
