Chapter 0068: Dengwen Drum Sound (Medium)

In the original history, the Dengwen drum outside the north of Weiyang Palace had to wait until four years later in the third year of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty to be played for the first time by the filial daughter Ti Ying.

In the records of later generations, about the results of the Dengwengu incident, all that can be seen is that Emperor Wen Liu Heng was moved by Ti Ying's pure filial piety, so he pardoned Ti Ying's father: Taicang Gong was pure and carried, and abolished corporal punishment.

But few people know what happened to the other characters in that incident.

โ€”โ€”The powerful family that slandered Chun Yuyi was forcibly relocated to Guanzhong to bully Yi in the second year after the incident!

โ€”โ€”The official who accepted bribes and punished the crime was never promoted again in his life!

โ€”โ€”Outside the north gate of Weiyang Palace, the court lieutenants who tried to stop Ti Ying from beating the Dengwen drum flowed thousands of miles!

The court is appeased!

Since then, even the local tycoons and magnates have reined in a lot, and many unsightly things have changed from doing things openly to doing things secretly.

In the current time and space, the big drum with a diameter of about one zhang is being sounded today, at this confusing point in time, and the impact will inevitably not be small.

This is also Liu Hongdi's opportunity!

Regardless of anything else, just taking this opportunity to appear in front of the people of Chang'an is already precious to Liu Hong!

Thinking like this, Liu Hong looked at Chen Ping, who was not far away, hurriedly entered the palace, and hurriedly climbed the palace wall from the stairs, revealing a bright smile.

Then, under Chen Ping's sluggish gaze, Liu Hong slowly raised his head and looked beyond the palace wall, the young man who was holding a drum hammer and wearing a vegetarian dress.

"Who are you?"

The young man bowed deeply, then straightened up, his eyes full of sadness: "Caomin Tian Zilan, I would like to worship Your Majesty, only Your Majesty will be happy for a long time!" โ€

Hearing this, Chen Ping, who had just come to the palace wall, was unwilling, so he could only grit his teeth and bow to Liu Hong: "Prime Minister Chenping, I would like to bow to Your Majesty..."

Liu Hong also turned sideways and bent down slightly to worship: "The prime minister is fine." โ€

Witnessing all this, the soldiers and civilians under the palace walls, even if their brains were dull, all knelt on the ground: "The grass people and others welcome Your Majesty~"

Turning around, looking at the soldiers and people kneeling under the palace wall, Liu Hong's breath couldn't help but become heavy, and his face inevitably turned slightly red.

- Poor God!

It's been more than half a month since I was the emperor, and this is the first time Liu Hong has personally felt: yes, you are still the emperor...

Before that, Liu Hong was like a child thrown into the animal pen, racking his brains all the time, trying to escape from this dangerous place, or kill the beasts in the circle!

In a moment, Liu Hong adjusted his mood, showed a warm smile, and came to the palace wall: "Flat." โ€

At this time, kneeling outside the palace wall, except for the soldiers who could not confirm the composition, the ordinary people were counted as one, and all of them were Liu Hong's people in the true sense!

- Food prices are soaring, but it's not just a matter of the past few days!

Since the death of Empress Dowager Lu at the end of September and the chaos in Chang'an, the price of grain in Guanzhong has never been declining for a minute!

Since mid-October, it has exceeded twice the original grain price: 170 yuan!

Therefore, the people who are kneeling outside Beique now are likely to be starving, but they still bent their knees to Liu Hong.

You must know that it is not the Yuan Qing Dynasty at this time, and the backbone in the blood of the Han people is still quite tough!

In ordinary times, even poor peasants or even tenant farmers at the bottom will not kneel when they are summoned by the prime minister, the second-in-command of the Han regime!

As for the film and television dramas, any small county order goes out on patrol, and there are people kneeling on both sides of the road to greet them, or hundreds of officials in the court meeting kneeling and kowtowing, and the scene of calling them slaves is completely impossible to appear in the Han Dynasty.

If the former really happens, then this 'powerful and powerful' official will not be far from 'committing suicide in shame'.

If the latter happens...

Then Liu Hong can book one for himself in advance from the nicknames such as 'Wild', 'Yang', 'Strong', and 'You'.

At this time, the Han people only knelt down to the heavens and the earth.

Kneel down to the god Taiyi, kneel down to the king of the earth stove; Kneel to the monarch, kneel to the parents, kneel to teach the teacher.

As the emperor, Liu Hong, although he is the master of the Han Dynasty and the monarch of all the people in the world, this does not mean that everyone who sees Liu Hong must kneel.

Even in the court meeting, the lowest level of Baishi petty officials did not need to kneel down to Liu Hong, they only needed to bend deeply and bow to him.

When it came to Jiuqing, the Third Duke and even the Prime Minister, Liu Hong had to bow slightly in return as he did when Chen Ping arrived.

Not long after the Warring States period, the Han Dynasty was established again, and the Warring States period was still strong, and the people's knees were still very hard!

But if you can not kneel, even in front of Emperor Liu Hong, ordinary people will try to avoid kneeling.

If there is an old man over 70 years old, it is even more terrifying - as soon as people make the action of kneeling, Liu Hong has to quickly step forward to help him up, saying that he 'dare not accept the gift of the old man'.

At this time, outside the North Gate, regardless of men, women, old and young, thousands of people knelt on the ground and worshiped their own king, which was the greatest recognition of Liu Hong.

Of course, it may also be that the people have expectations for Liu Hongdi, such as 'Your Majesty, do you want to take care of the price of grain?' Something like that.

But it doesn't matter.

If food can be exchanged for loyalty, then Liu Hong is absolutely willing to exchange all the 300,000 yuan in his hand for corn, and the people in the world will give ten stones to every household!

Looking at the people under the palace walls, hunger was about to be written on their foreheads, Liu Hong couldn't help but feel sad.

Whether it is the death of Empress Lu, or the princes and ministers jointly condemning Zhu Lu, or Liu Hong's secret wrestling with the courtiers and nobles, in fact, it has nothing to do with these people.

If Empress Lu didn't die, the corn couldn't be cooked?

If Zhulu is not extinguished, the firewood will not be lit?

In the final analysis, it is still the same sentence: the rise and fall of the world is only for the people to bear their sorrows.

Thinking of this, Liu Hong put down the plan of 'taking this opportunity to lift the table'.

I saw Liu Hong's face sank, turned sideways, and said coldly to Chen Ping beside him: "The people of Zhenguan are all vegetables, if you haven't eaten for a long time?" โ€

"I confessed to the affairs of Shaofu, has the prime minister ever seen it personally?"

In normal times, this is just a rebuke from the emperor to his courtiers.

But this sentence was almost roared out by Liu Hong...

Not to mention the people under the palace walls, it is estimated that even Qi Li, who is a mile away, may be able to faintly hear Liu Hongdi's voice!

The people kneeling under the palace wall raised their heads when they heard the sound, and they saw the young king's eyes wide open, scolding the old Xiangguo who was eating ten thousand stones...

Hundreds of people suddenly burst into tears, ignoring the cold and stiffness on the ground, kowtowing to the palace wall again and again, and the bitter water such as 'Your Majesty's mercy' and 'the people's hardship' was mixed with crying, which suddenly resounded in the sky above Beique, and it did not stop for a long time.
