Chapter 144: Abolish the New Emperor

"If you go out like this now, I promise you'll be caught as soon as you go out." Zhang Hao looked at Lai Ying'er and said with a smile.

"This ......" Lai Ying'er looked at the black night clothes on her body, and was a little embarrassed for a while, not to mention that there were still a few cuts on the clothes, just walking out like this would definitely attract the attention of the army searching for her.

"You can stay in the Hero Building first, and I'll have someone arrange a room for you later, and then I'll talk about it when the injury is healed." Zhang Hao shook his head and said.

I secretly thought that this orchid gate might be an expert in inquiring about intelligence, but this killing technique is still too poor, how can there be assassination in broad daylight and wear night clothes.

Later, Zhang Hao learned that there are not many people in Orchid Gate, and they are basically divided into two parts, one part is on the surface, and they perform in places like Phoenix Tower.

In addition to Luoyang Phoenix Building, there are several branches with the word "Phoenix Building" in other places, in addition to performances, they are also places to sell news.

The other part is hidden in the shadows, distributed all over the place, they are responsible for contacting those brothels in the green mansions and obtaining information, although those prostitutes do not belong to the Orchid Gate, they provide information for the Orchid Gate in exchange for some payment.

In addition to those brothels in Qinglou, there are also many prostitutes, singers, and dancers from wealthy families who are all ways for Orchid Gate to obtain information, and you can imagine what a huge intelligence network this is.

And they can often obtain information that is difficult for ordinary people to obtain, just like the secrets of those wealthy families, they can find out, after all, at some times, people are defenseless, and it is especially easy to be tricked into information.

Here, Zhang Hao arranged for Ying'er to live in the Hero Building, and asked the little girl to go out and prepare some clothes for her, so that Ying'er could rest assured in the Hero Building.

On the other hand, Dong Zhuo's ambitions have been extremely inflated, his eyes are empty, and the entire Eastern Han Dynasty is almost completely subject to Dong Zhuo, and the appointment and dismissal of courtiers, the formulation of major policies, and even the abolition of the emperor are all decided by Dong Zhuo.

On this day, Dong Zhuo convened a court meeting of hundreds of civil and military officials, preparing to abolish the establishment, Zhang Hao learned about it, and with the help of Lu Bu, he took Tong Fei and Shi A to pretend to be soldiers and infiltrated the palace.

"Emperor Xiaoling, do not investigate Gaozong's eyebrows, abandon his courtiers early, the emperor Cheng Shao, look at the sea sideways, and the emperor is frivolous, majestic and unscrupulous, in mourning slow and lazy, as old as before, fierce and virtuous, filthy and heard, humiliating the artifact, and defiling the temple."

"The Empress Dowager has no mother, the ruling is in chaos, the Empress Dowager Yongle collapsed, the public is confused, the three outlines are big, the discipline of heaven and earth, and there is a que, the big sin."

"Chen Liuwang Xie, Shengde Weimao, the rules are good, the abundance is on the top, there is the table of Yaotu, the mourning and mourning, the words are not evil, the nature of Qi Ling, and the Yi of Zhou Cheng."

"Xiu Shengmei said, the world heard, it is advisable to inherit the Hongye, for the eternal unity, can inherit the temple, the emperor is abolished as the king of Hongnong, the queen mother returned to power, and lived in Yong'an Palace, I would like to serve King Chen Liu as the emperor, and should be Shun people to comfort the hope of the subjects."

As an official read aloud, the ceremony of canonizing the new emperor began, and after reading the book, Dong Zhuo took the lead, followed by all the princes and ministers.

They hugged Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, and walked up to the high platform, Liu Xie walked to the throne and sat down slowly, Dong Zhuo stepped forward to present the emperor's seal and jade seal.

The following ministers bowed down one after another, and even the deposed emperor Liu Wei was also ranked in the court class at this time, and was forced to bow down to the new emperor Liu Xie.

At this time, Liu Xie was only eight or nine years old, and when he saw this situation, he suddenly felt a little restless, glanced at Liu Wei in embarrassment, and wanted to get up, but was glared at by Dong Zhuo next to him, and did not dare to make a move.

Liu Wei sat on the throne, with an uneasy face, as if there were thousands of needles on the seat, but he was subject to Dong Zhuo, and he didn't dare to move, so he could only obediently cooperate with Dong Zhuo and complete one ceremony after another.

When the ceremony was completed, some officials came out to announce the appointment and dismissal one by one, the first of which was to make Dong Zhuo the marquis of the county, worship the prime minister, and jump to the head of the three princes and take the power of the prime minister.

Although Dong Zhuo is known as the minister of state "under one person and above ten thousand", in fact, he far surpasses the emperor, and enjoys privileges such as praising and worshipping the nameless, entering the court, and going to the palace with a sword.

After he was added to the ranks, Dong Zhuo also used the privileges in his hands to add members of the Dong family, he first named his mother Chi Yangjun, and Yue Li was equipped with family orders and retainers, and his status was equivalent to that of the royal princess.

At the same time, Dong Zhuo worshiped his younger brother Dong Min as the general of the left, and named the Marquis of Yan, and also named his young granddaughter as the Yang Jun, and even the child in the arms of his concubine was named the Hou and made it golden and purple.

In addition to his own family, he also promoted and supported Chen Fan, Dou Wu and others who had been degraded, Dong Zhuo not only restored Chen Fan and others to their previous titles, but also promoted their children and grandchildren, so that they could be used for his own use for generations to come.

Dong Zhuo also wanted to win over the scholars and use the privileges in his hands to re-promote and appoint a large number of party members, such as Zhou Bismu, the secretary of the ministry, Wu Qiong, the secretary Zheng Gongye, the chief of the history He Feng, and the Sikong Wu officer.

Not only that, as long as they were party members related to the above personnel, Dong Zhuo promoted them as secretaries, but in fact, almost no one was bought by Dong Zhuo.

Think about it, how could these scholars easily take refuge in Dong Zhuo, in their eyes, Dong Zhuo is a rebel and thief, but he is just dealing with him.

In addition to arranging his own forces in various ministries of the central government, Dong Zhuo also appointed a large number of local officials such as Taishou and Assassin Shi to install local minions by secondary means.

In this way, Dong Zhuo has basically controlled the main political forces at the central and local levels by placing eyes and ears at various levels, and as long as the officials who are dissatisfied with him make the slightest move, he can mercilessly and completely eradicate them and deter the government and the opposition.

It took a long stick of incense for the official to read the long list of appointments and dismissals, and then issued an amnesty to the world, changing the first year of Zhaoning to the first year of Yonghan, and this absurd canonization ceremony ended.

What is worth mentioning here is that there were four era names in this year, and later it became a big joke among the people, first in the sixth year of Zhongping when Emperor Ling.

In April, Liu Wei succeeded to the throne, changed the first year of Yuan Guangxi, and later changed the first year of Yuan Zhaoning, the young emperor succeeded to the throne in April, and was deposed in September, only in May, changed the yuan twice, and now Liu Xie succeeded to the throne and changed the yuan again.

"The old thief really did such a ridiculous thing." In the Hero Building, after Zhang Hao told Lu Zhi what he saw, Lu Zhi, who was angry, scolded again.

"Uncle, don't be angry." Zhang Hao smiled and comforted.

"This, how can this not make people angry, in this way, isn't this court just him Dong Zhuo has the final say?" Lu Zhi slapped the table and said.

"Be angry, be angry, if you are angry, you won't see the day when Dong Zhuo's old thief will fall." Zhang Hao said indifferently.

"Okay, okay, okay, I can't tell you, what do you say next?" Lu Zhi looked at Zhang Hao and asked.
