Episode 0253: Prince Liu Debate

Hehuan Hall.

"Your Majesty, Peng Yu, the general of Zhengdong, did not return to Luoyang to report the good news to His Majesty on the occasion of the great victory, and the minister impeached this son for disrespect, and asked His Majesty to recall and reprimand, otherwise everyone in the courtiers will follow suit, where is the prestige of my Han Dynasty? What is the face of Your Majesty? ”

……

"Your Majesty, Peng Yu's luck won several victories, all of which are due to His Majesty's discernment and knowledge, it's ridiculous that this son thinks it's all his own merit, and the Queen Mother's birthday This son actually ignores it, Your Majesty, Peng Yu can't let it go anymore, and the minister implores His Majesty to recall him back to the palace and cure his crimes."

……

"Your Majesty, the minister impeached Peng Yu, the general of Zhengdong, Peng Yu did not get His Majesty's permission, and privately captured 200,000 Yellow Turban troops in front of the Tiger Prison Pass, and stationed in front of Xingyang, and moved all the grain and grass equipment from Puyang to Xingyang.

……

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Peng Yu has always been bold and reckless, lawless, in the past, he privately recruited the Yellow Turban, His Majesty felt his merit, and did not punish his crimes, and did not want to surrender more than 200,000 this time, it is said that this son not only treats the Yellow Turban thieves, but also makes him have abundant food and clothing, this son is widely popular, Your Majesty wants to guard against it."

……

"Your Majesty, I think this son has become a big trend, now, this son in the Luoyang people's prestige is better than Your Majesty, the people all say that Peng Yu is the general of the sky, and there are other words, the minister does not dare to say clearly, His Majesty can immediately summon him into the palace, if he continues to lead the troops outside, I am afraid that the day of the Yellow Turban will be destroyed, it will be when Peng Yu rebels."

"I already know, this matter needs to be discussed again, I am tired, let's discuss it tomorrow."

……

……

Within a month, the Hehuan Hall was full of people, and there were constantly civil ministers and military generals who went to the palace to consult with His Majesty about the government, saying that it was a senator, and almost all of them came to impeach Peng Yu.

In the first few days, Liu Hong was furious when he heard this, cut the official position and seized the title, and reprimanded several people who impeached Peng Yu, so that the remarks about Peng Yu in the court stopped for several days.

But since the courtiers who had been cut down and robbed of their titles were used by His Majesty again and reinstated as officials, the impeachment of Peng Yu rose again, and it became more and more intense.

As the saying goes, three people become tigers!

Now in Luoyang, the court is controlled by the Dong faction, saying that Peng Yu's courtiers are more than three?

Not only are there more than three people, but even three parties can be calculated.

One side is a courtier, since He Jin, Wang Yun, and Lu Zhi were all sent out to serve as Taishou, the Luoyang government almost fell into the hands of Dong Chong, and the remarks above the court are naturally the remarks of the Dong faction, and the Dong faction wants to get rid of Peng Yu and then quickly.

In this way, the court side actually impeached Peng Yu, who was the first loyal minister of the Eastern Han Dynasty not long ago.

One side is the harem, since Dong Chong returned to power, the queen mother's power has become more and more powerful, the He faction has been suppressed, and Queen He has been even more oppressed, so that she has not seen His Majesty Liu Hong for almost a month.

In this way, the people next to His Majesty's pillow are all people who speak for the Dong faction, how can these people say half a good word about Peng Yu?

One side is the people, Dong Chong's design this time is extremely ingenious, among the people, Peng Yu's exploits are publicized everywhere, and how can the people understand the power of this matter? Under the guidance of the Dong faction, they bowed to Peng Yu in unison, so that Peng Yu's prestige flourished in Luoyang, and later developed to add officials to Peng Yu.

And the voice of the people has invisibly brought a greater crisis to Peng Yu, because the words of the people represent the hearts of the people!

What would a person who wielded military power, who wanted the will of the people, and who was bold and reckless, do?

Even if this person didn't do anything, I'm afraid that the courtiers and His Majesty would be unable to tolerate this person, not to mention that he secretly accepted as many as 200,000 Yellow Turban captives!

In this way, many people united to impeach Peng Yu's affairs in the court, fan the wind in the harem, and ignite the fire among the people, so that His Majesty Liu Hong's ears have been talking about Peng Yu recently.

So much so that Liu Hong trusted Peng Yu very much, and under the impeachment of so many people, he became a little hesitant.

Liu Hong's hesitation is also due to the fact that the eunuchs have a good relationship with Peng Yu, in the dead of night, when he is alone with His Majesty, not only Gao Wang, Lu Qiang, and others will say a few good words for Peng Yu, but even Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong will also distinguish a few words for Peng Yu.

In this way, His Majesty Liu Hongcai did not completely lose trust in Peng Yu.

But Liu Hong's trust in Peng Yu is no longer as good as a day, I am afraid that his patience will soon run out, and at that time, the eunuchs will not desperately recommend Peng Yu, after all, the first priority for the eunuchs is their own survival.

……

In the Hehuan Palace, Liu Hong looked high.

Liu Hong reclined on the dragon chair made by Peng Yu, this recliner was extremely cleverly designed, and it was undoubtedly extremely comfortable to lie on it, but Liu Hong was now frowning, and his face was a little gloomy.

Gao Wang had the heart to help Peng Yu say a few good words, but he was worried about angering His Majesty, so he turned his heart around, filled His Majesty with the "Wuliangye" offered by Peng Yu, and stood beside Liu Hong without saying a word.

Gao Wang secretly said in his heart, Peng Yu, Peng Yu, I Gao Wang has done my best to be kind to you, as for how you will end up, I'm afraid you have to ask for more blessings.

Liu Hong looked into the distance, pondered for a long time, and his face became more and more gloomy.

Suddenly, Liu Hong's eyes lit up, he immediately turned over and sat up, as if he had made a decision, but he saw the wine utensils placed in front of him at a glance without waiting for the decree, Liu Hong looked at the wine utensils and was stunned, and pondered for a long time again, but the gloom on his face seemed to be much better.

Finally, Liu Hongyi raised his hand, drank the wine in one gulp, and asked, "Gao Wang, is this the wine offered by Peng Xiaozi?" ”

Gao Wang immediately smiled and filled a cup to His Majesty, "Back to Your Majesty's words, it is Peng Yu's offer." ”

"Hmph, does he remember me?" Liu Hong seemed a little unhappy, but his face was much better.

Gao Wang gave Liu Hongman a cup of laughter again, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty said that you are joking, who does not pretend to be Your Majesty in our hearts, slaves are like this, Peng Yu is like this, and who in the world is not like this." ”

Liu Hong was furious when he heard this, "Hmph, Peng Yu was bold and reckless, and privately surrendered more than 200,000 prisoners, how can there be a cry in the eyes of this son?" ”

Gao Wang was startled, and quickly knelt on the ground, "The slave lost his words, angered His Majesty, and asked His Majesty to surrender." ”

Liu Hong looked at the wine utensils, sighed, stretched out his hand to drink the wine in one gulp, and muttered, "Peng Yu, I hope you can do it yourself." ”

After drinking this cup, Liu Hong seemed a little tired, and lay down again to rest.

Gao Wang watched Liu Hong lie down again, frowned and said secretly, "Peng Yu, if you don't return to Luoyang, even our eunuchs will not be able to protect you." ”

Gao Wang packed up the wine utensils and walked out of the hall quietly, for fear of waking up His Majesty.

When Gao Wang came out of the Hehuan Palace, he couldn't help but sigh, but he heard a commotion!

Gao Wang was taken aback, His Majesty had just laid down, who dared to make noise here? And this sound seems to be very close, I am afraid it is not far from the outside of the temple.

Gao Wang looked for the sound and left, and was about to scold, but suddenly found that it was the prince Liu Bian!
