Mother-in-law vs. son-in-law.

If it is dealt with in this way, His Majesty's two princes will be concubines. He stepmother is more expensive than her son. Although he is now the master of the main palace, he still can't change the identity of the eldest son of the emperor.

Just because of the date of birth, the identity has been determined.

When the emperor's eldest son was born, the main palace was the queen of Song. When the second son of the emperor Xie, was born, the main palace was replaced by Queen He.

As a result, the two princes were both concubines.

Imagine. If you don't trace back to the source from the Empress Dowager Dou. And just after that. How could he be willing to give up his own emperor's eldest son and support the emperor's second son? It is precisely because the Empress Dowager Dou is the mother-in-law of Her Majesty who is like a fake, and she is also the grandmother of the two princes. Therefore, starting from the "root" theory, we can take full advantage of the law, etiquette and righteousness.

Just as Empress Dowager Dong knew in her heart. Empress Dowager Dou's sentence is worth her thousand words.

Other words. If the Empress Dowager Dou speaks, 'make your son the emperor'. The ministers should have no objections.

The so-called "humble is light". If you want the Empress Dowager Dou to be "respectful". It is necessary to regain its momentum. This is also His Majesty's wish. It was precisely because of this that Cheng Huang brazenly stayed in the matter. Get involved in the power struggle in the inner palace. It can be said that the vision is vicious, old and strong.

Saying. Since the death of General Dou, the Empress Dowager Dou was hated by the eunuchs led by Wang Fu and Cao Jie, and was imprisoned for many years. Dou's relatives were exterminated, and the eunuchs gained power and power all over the world. At this time, the eunuchs also intrigued, fell in love and killed each other. Wang Fu was sentenced by Cheng Huang by borrowing the knife of his second son-in-law, and Cao Jie killed Cheng Huang's second son-in-law and expelled him from the palace. Monopoly of power. As a result, the older generation of eunuchs withered. and even the rise of the Mesozoic eunuchs led by Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong. It is called the "Ten Permanent Servants".

Seeing that the power was falling, Cao Jie and Cheng Huang released their previous suspicions, and joined forces again to kill the "Ten Standing Servants".

At the end of the Han Dynasty, two emperors were born in Hejian. So much so that Fan Ye also praised in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty: "There are many blessings in the river." ”

In the winter and December of the first year of Yongkang (167), the first emperor collapsed. The powerful Empress Dowager Dou conspired with the general Dou Wu to select the new emperor.

From time to time, eight people attended the meeting: the general Dou Wu, his son and second nephew, Yuan Feng, the Taiwei Zhou Jing, the royal descendant of Hejian, the imperial Shi Liu Yi, and the eunuch Cao Jie.

Everyone agreed that the new emperor must be selected from among the descendants of Emperor Zhang. Because Emperor Zhang's line is a "descendant lineage". Liu Yi then recommended Liu Hong, the marquis of the pavilion, a little pavilion marquis who was not well known, had never even been out of the river, and the orphans and widows depended on each other for their lives, and lived in poverty.

General Dou overrode public opinion, and then established Liu Hong as the emperor, and the Empress Dowager Dou "hung the curtain to supervise the country".

People from all factions were rewarded for their efforts to support the emperor. Liu Yi was favored because he went out of the river with His Majesty, and because of his meritorious recommendation. Therefore, it attracted the jealousy and hatred of the eunuchs. The eunuch Hou Lan, fearing that Liu Yi and Dou Wu would join forces to eradicate dissidents, looked for an opportunity to invite, and Liu Yan came out as Taishan's Taishou. But on his way to his post, he sent someone to assassinate him. His Majesty remembered that Liu Yi died innocently, so he ordered Liu Yi's brother, Liu He, to be Situ. I wanted to ease the contradictions between eunuchs, relatives and party members.

At this time, Dou Wu was executed, and the party members were imprisoned. The eunuch family is dominant. In order to fight for power, Cheng Huang secretly pulled the strings and ordered his two sons-in-law Liu He and Yang Qiu to conspire with Chen Qiu, Liu Na and others. Wang Fu and his henchmen were all tortured to death in prison. This matter was seized by the Great Changqiu Cao Festival. He also teamed up with the eunuchs to cry to Emperor Ling, and forced Cheng Huang to accuse the four of them of "plotting wrong". Emperor Ling was furious, imprisoned the four and tortured them to death.

This is the second year of light and harmony.

During this year in history, Dou's relatives were executed, Wang Fu, Hou Lan, Guan Ba and other eunuchs who were in power died one after another, and Cao Jie also died of illness in the following year.

Your Majesty, who is no longer restrained, suddenly has a monopoly on the cadres and monopolizes power.

At this time, if Your Majesty really has the idea of "Zhongxing", you can let it go. When the new deal comes out, there will be a new atmosphere. However, it was "chaotic but not damaged", and reused the eunuchs of the Mesozoic Era led by Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong. When the latter door rises, it repeats the mistakes of the eunuchs and relatives of the previous dynasty.

All kinds of past lives are fleeting. There is no point in pursuing it further.

However, when the new emperor was selected, the forces of all parties competed fiercely, and the only condition for reaching a consensus was "the lineage of the clan". But you can see it.

The reason why His Majesty was able to succeed to the throne was precisely because of the "lineage of the clan".

Therefore, deep in His Majesty's heart, there is the self-plot and righteousness of "Liyan" support.

And so it is.

In the sixth year of Zhongping (189), His Majesty was critically ill. On the sickbed, the second son of the emperor was entrusted to the military academy captain Jian Shuo. Bingchen, collapsed in the Jiade Palace. Jian Shuo was in the palace when he wanted to kill He Jin first, and then set up his second son as the emperor. He sent someone to take He into the palace, falsely claiming that there was something important to discuss. He Jin did not doubt that he had him, and immediately took the car. Unexpectedly, Jian Shuo Sima Pan Yin and He Jin had already had a friendship, and they gestured with their eyes when they greeted him. He Jin comprehended, drove back to the military camp under his command, and led the army to enter the official residences of various counties in the capital, pretending that he was sick and would no longer enter the palace. and even fell short.

Just imagine, even Jian Shuo almost succeeded.

How is the thistle king better than the thistle?

The whole world will be skeptical. Whether His Majesty really has the heart to abolish the growth and stand up for the young is just a momentary emotion.

However, His Majesty's heart, how could Liu Bei not know.

The six masterminds of the Ji Kingdom are also convinced.

It is precisely because the thistle king is the best choice for the lonely ministers. Your Majesty is honored in every way.

The king of this tle is a hero in the world and a person of long-term love. Receiving the great grace of His Majesty, how can he not serve the new emperor without putting on his liver and courage.

The general He Jin once said that it is useless for the little sister to marry. It's also a hit on the head. The world is righteous, and how can it tolerate the private feelings of children. However, He Hou, who has a natural female perspective, can see it more clearly. It is precisely because the thistle king is a hero, the grievances and grievances are clear, and the love and hate are clear. Only then did we start from the weakness and move it with affection.

How to say it later. Even if the matter fails, with the princess of the He family by her side, the king of this Ji will not kill the He family.

When she returned to the palace alone, Mrs. Cheng was full of spring breeze.

When entering the palace gate, looking at the Nangong Yuntai from afar, I can't help but think about it.

At this moment. Huangmen ordered Zuo Feng, who was leading Lu Qiang, who would be cured from illness and enter the palace after the year, to ascend to the Yuntai Hall and meet the Empress Dowager Dou.

"When Lu Changshi first recovered, he came on stage to see him, and I was very relieved."

"The queen mother called each other, how dare the old slave slack off. Even if you have a chronic illness, you are here to see you now. Lu Qiang replied.

"If it is not an important matter, how can you bother Lu Changshi." Empress Dowager Dou got straight to the point: "Just because there is one thing, I need to bother Lu Changshi to help." ”

"Please make it clear to the Queen Mother." Lu Qiang said goodbye.

"I have promised Cheng Huang the position of 'Changle Shaofu'." Empress Dowager Dou's words were amazing.

Lu Qiang's heart palpitated, and his thoughts also turned sharply: "Why did the Queen Mother use Cheng Huang." ”

"Without it, there is no one in the palace available." Empress Dowager Dou has a lot of light clouds: "Since General Dou is full of ambushes, I am not a lonely person, and I am about to die of an old woman's ear." While there is still some time to live, I will do what I can for Your Majesty. Do your mother's right. ”

Lu Qiang then woke up: "The Queen Mother wants to use Cheng Huang to check and balance the ten permanent servants." ”

"Yes, yes." Empress Dowager Dou simply said: "The Ten Constants are in trouble with the government and the world, which is a great disaster. At that time, everyone gritted their teeth and hated, and wanted to get rid of it quickly. There is Xu Feng in the front, Duan Qi in the back, and then Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, and the close ministers around His Majesty actually secretly communicate with the Yellow Turban anti-thief. Such a kingless and fatherless, abandoning the country and abandoning the Lord, harboring ill intentions, and being a heinous man. In my lifetime, I am bound to eradicate it and clear the king's side. ”

After speaking, the Empress Dowager Dou suddenly lowered her tone and said eloquently: "I have nothing to worry about in this life. Past grievances have long been buried in the ground. However, General Dou was once respected as the 'Three Monarchs' by people of insight in the world, and since I am the daughter of the Dou family, I should carefully follow the will of the general, and I will do my best for the Han Dynasty. ”

Hearing the heartfelt words of the Empress Dowager Dou, Lu Qiang, who was loyal to the martyrs, couldn't help but bow down solemnly: "The old slave will definitely live up to the trust of the (Dou) Empress Dowager." ”

The word "Dou" in Lv Qiang Province. The deep meaning, how can the Empress Dowager Dou not know.

Tracing back to the source, she is the justifiable "Queen Mother" of my Han Dynasty.
