Chapter 204: A Little Wind and a Little Wave

Writing the edict was originally Zhang Rang's business, after all, the former emperor Liu Hong had not written for many years, and then Liu Hong forgot how to write the words.

The first emperor Liu Hong only counted the money.

Most of the time, Zhang Rang is responsible for the whole process of production of the edict, of course, there is no need for Zhang Rang to operate, there are generally many small eunuchs who are responsible for each process.

Some eunuchs have good calligraphy, so they will write edicts, like Zuo Feng is the best in calligraphy, and some eunuchs are responsible for using the jade seal of the country to seal the edict.

As soon as the edict was mentioned, Zhang Rang's face was bitter, I don't know where to find this heirloom jade seal, if even the heirloom jade seal is gone, then the edict can't be issued, it can only become an oracle.

The oracle is also effective, and the subjects of the Han Dynasty recognize it, but it is not very formal, especially in the matter of the new emperor's support, which seems to be extremely child's play, and it is easy for people to feel tired.

"Empress Dowager, the first emperor's... The jade seal of the country was stolen by thieves before, and it has not been recovered, His Majesty succeeded to the throne, I am afraid that the edict does not have the jade seal of the country to be sealed, what can I do? ”

Zhang Rang felt the need to take advantage of the fact that Empress Dowager He and He Jin were there, and there was a tainted witness Cheng Yuanzhi who had not left yet, so he opened up everything and said, lest the jade seal of the country be lost, and then He Jin would plant the blame on Zhang Rang's head, and wronged Zhang Rang and said that Zhang Rang stole it.

Zhang Rang, as a eunuch, is a eunuch, and there is no way to ascend the throne and claim the emperor by himself, it is useful to steal a jade seal of the country, but the jade seal of the country is gone, and someone must take the blame.

When Empress Dowager He heard Zhang Rang's words, she was stunned, passing on the jade seal of the country? What the hell is that? What does it have to do with Liu Bian's accession to the throne as Emperor of the Han Dynasty, it's just the next edict, where did so many things come from.

Empress Dowager He was busy with the palace fight, and knew that there was such a thing as the jade seal of the country, but she didn't know the importance of the jade seal of the country, and thought that she would give an edict, so she would finish it in three or two sentences, write it down and send it out of the palace, and it would be over.

After all, the first emperor Liu Hong's betrayal of officials is well known to the world, who doesn't know that at the palace gate of the palace, a large cart of edicts has to be shipped out every day, and then exchanged for a pile of money and transported back when it gets dark.

He Jin said through Cheng Yuanzhi before, he already knew that the jade seal of the country was lost, whether it was in Sun Jian's body is still inconclusive, but Sun Jian is the most suspicious, and He Jin also frowned for a while, if you want to take power, if there is a jade seal of the country, it will be good.

Even if the Empress Dowager He stretched out her hand to the court, but the jade seal of the country was in He Jin's hands, she could directly set up the Empress Dowager He, no matter what the Empress Dowager He said, as long as it was said by the Empress Dowager He, it would not be stamped, and over time, the Empress Dowager He would definitely not be too lazy to meddle in the troubles of the court.

However, everyone wants the jade seal of the country, but He Jin doesn't have it at hand.

In addition to being the important weapon of the Han Dynasty, it is also a big treasure, and the jade in the world is as perfect as the jade seal of the country, and there is no such thing as the jade seal of the country. Even if it is an ordinary person, if he gets the jade seal of the country, even if he does not have the heart to ascend the throne and claim the emperor, he will treat the jade seal of the country as a treasure and sell it for a large amount of money.

Empress Dowager He was happy, even He Jin felt that it was a difficult matter, at this time, it could show the ability and power of Empress Dowager He, Empress Dowager He was resolute, her willow eyebrows were straight, she glared at Zhang Rang, her voice was soft, and she said with thorns in her words:

"Zhang Zhongchang waits, the jade seal of the country is missing, so let's go find it. Before you find it, use the piece in the mourning palace. The next edict, mother-in-law and mother-in-law, it is not as refined as the Ben Mourning family, serving and doing things in the palace, if everyone drags like you, how will Your Majesty govern the world in the future. Hmph, if you don't want to do it, just say it, the mourning family doesn't have to worry about finding someone, just look for it, there are more people who are younger and more capable than you. Why don't you get to work? ”

Empress Dowager He is now in power, and she scolds Zhang Rang, obviously for He Jin and others, and wants to warn everyone that she Empress Dowager He is powerful and powerful, and no matter how big things are, in the eyes of Empress Dowager He, they are all small winds and waves, and they can't make waves.

Don't have a jade seal? For trivial matters, just go to the bedroom and take the phoenix seal of the queen mother before Empress Dowager He, it's really not good, find a piece of jade and carve it again, it's nothing more than a seal gadget, and it's not a big deal.

As the queen mother, her son Liu Wei became the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and he was afraid that he would not be able to find a piece of jade to be the jade seal of the country? Ten yuan and eight yuan are not a problem, and the Empress Dowager He is not without money.

Zhang Rang's eunuchs, although they are harmful to the court, but Zhang Rang and others have an extremely powerful advantage, that is, they can bend and stretch. When the first emperor Liu Hong had no money, he needed to rely on Zhang Rang, Zhang Rang could make Liu Hong call his father willingly, and call him 'Father', after all, it was the big guy who gave the money, and the one who asked for the money was the grandson.

But after Liu Hong died, Empress Dowager He gained power, and Zhang Rang instantly accepted the huge drop from the peak to the bottom, groveling to Empress Dowager He, flattering him wantonly, without the arrogance and arrogance of the past.

"The queen mother is angry, the minister is guilty, and the minister will go to write an edict, and it will be presented to the queen mother within half a pillar of incense."

If there is no errand, without the support of the Empress Dowager He, Zhang Rang has so many enemies, maybe when he turns around, he will give others a click.

In order to save his life, the face is small, and the life is big, Zhang Rang lowered his eyebrows and compensated the Empress Dowager He, with a flattering face, obedient and well-behaved, like a kitten that has been raised in the neighboring yard for more than ten years.

The eunuch is greedy for money, this is not just talking, as long as Zhang Rang is not allowed to pay for it, no matter how wronged he is, Zhang Rang can swallow it.

Besides, to please the new master of the Empress Dowager He, Zhang Rang will still be able to walk sideways in the palace in the future. Empress Dowager He looked down on the small place of the inner courtyard of the harem, and wanted to stretch out her hand to the court and to the prefectures and counties of the Han Dynasty.

But Zhang Rang is not stupid, the palace is the basic plate of Zhang Rang and other ten permanent servants, which can radiate to the court and manipulate power at the court meeting, which is the best, if it doesn't work, then call the wind and rain in the palace and enjoy the glory and wealth of a lifetime, which is better than anything else.

Zhang Rang made amends to the Empress Dowager He, and quickly led the little eunuch to the side, found a palace, rushed over quickly, and went to write an edict.

Cheng Yuanzhi watched the two brothers and sisters He Jin and Empress Dowager He fighting fiercely, fighting openly and secretly, and secretly felt that the royal family was really ruthless, the emperor's family was cold, it was better to leave the palace quickly, and the palace should not stay for a long time.

So, Cheng Yuanzhi clasped his fists and saluted Empress Dowager He and He and said:

"The queen mother, the general, Sun Jian, the thief is expected to escape not far away, if the general has a lot of miscellaneous things, this Sikong can go to arrest on behalf of the general, if not, this Sikong must return to Youzhou as soon as possible, the whole army will lead the troops, and go to Yuyang to ask for the thief, the anti-thief is very difficult to get rid of, let it go, I am afraid it will become a spark and a prairie fire."
