Yanxi has been in Ding Wei for ten years.

In January, the sun is eclipsed.

The emperor collapsed in the front hall of Deyang.

The Son of Heaven died, the whole world mourned, up to the kings and ministers, down to the people of Limin, all weeping bitterly, even if these party members and the Daxing Emperor were incompatible, but they were also busy, first through the Di to inform the world of the death of the Daxing Emperor, and then wrote a eulogy, as well as discussed the temple number and so on.

Of course, there is an even more important thing, the country cannot be without a king for a day.

For negotiating the emperor's affairs, it is obvious that the queen in the palace has more say.

Because Emperor Daxing has no heirs, after the death of Emperor Daxing, the queen mother is called the queen mother, the queen mother is in the dynasty, generally speaking, the queen mother is in the weak clan, or the time when a relative is in power, but this time it is completely because of Dou Wu's good name, just because Dou Wu is one of the leaders of the party, and no one has any objection to the queen mother's dynasty.

Even eunuchs such as the Cao family did not make a sound, the emperor died, and even the eunuchs in the palace had no backers, let alone them? Dou Miao never thought that she still had a chance to come to the court, she was not liked by the emperor in the first place, and the emperor even deliberately found a girl to be angry with her, called Tian Sheng, and often brought it to the harem to show off.

Of course, perhaps in the eyes of the party, not being close to the emperor is the key to her coming to the court.

After the emperor's death, there were many things, and the queen mother only mourned for three days, and then she was pulled out by Dou Wu to hold a court discussion.

Outside the Deyang Palace, there was a white everywhere, even the ministers were wearing plain clothes, the queen was a little haggard and was helped to the place where the emperor was kneeling, sitting on the side, looking at the courtiers below, sitting in a high position, but between her eyebrows was still sad, she loved the Son of Heaven, even if the Son of Heaven hated and loved her, seeing the Queen Mother coming, those ministers began to cry again.

The Son of Heaven is supreme, and even if there is, it is a trick of eunuchs.

Except for those enthusiastic students, no one will go to the emperor to discuss the emperor, even if the emperor has done many wrong things, the Han Dynasty is prestigious, the queen mother can't help but be sad, and began to comfort these emperors The most hated party members, after a while, Shangshu Zhu Yu said: "The queen mother, the ministers discussed, and the temple name of the Daxing Emperor was set as Wei, called Zong, and the name was undecided." ”

The Queen Mother was stunned, she really didn't expect that the Son of Heaven could still get the temple number, and was enshrined by the later emperor, and the party and the Son of Heaven fought openly and secretly, what is the situation, seeing that the Queen Mother did not reply, Dou Wu coughed lightly, and the Queen Mother came back to her senses, nodded, and said: "These things, the ministers discuss with each other, and there is no need to tell me." ”

There is also a Shangshu Wei Lang said: "Three days later, it is a good time, and Emperor Daxing can enter the imperial mausoleum." ”

"Yes."

There are constantly ministers who come out to report on various affairs, and the Queen Mother is not without permission.

At the end of the discussion, the ministers quieted down and looked at Dou Wu, Dou Wu naturally understood in his heart that this was to negotiate who would be the son of heaven of the Han Dynasty, he was the emperor and had a virtuous name, I was afraid that he would start first, Dou Wu got up, bowed, and said: "The emperor of Daxing has died, and the country cannot be without a king, may the queen mother order, please ask the sons of the virtuous clan to become the unification!" ”

The Queen Mother looked at Dou Wu and said, "You can ask Zongzheng to discuss." ”

There is a person from the hundred officials walked out, this person is majestic, tall, get up and worship again, this person is Zongzheng Liu Tao, Liu Tao, Ziqi, a Wei, Yingchuan County, Yingyin County, Jibei Zhenwang Liu Bo, after the filial piety, appointed as the head of Shunyang, awarded the imperial history, worship Zongzheng, this person is known for his upright and outspoken, opened his mouth and said: "The close relatives of the Son of Heaven, the Emperor of the Pavilion Marquis Hong, the Hong, the great-grandson of the King of Filial Piety in the River, Zu Shu, the father Chang, the world seal the Pavilion Marquis. ”

Dou Wu and the others all frowned, it stands to reason that this Liu Tao was also born too a student, and he once participated in the movement with the Tai students, and even played directly to the Son of Heaven, that is, that time, the Son of Heaven actually fell in love with this upright disciple of the clan, and he achieved today's position step by step, but he didn't expect that he, who was born too student, did not hesitate to say that he would understand the Pavilion Marquis.

You must know that in front of many students, the Marquis of Xie Du Pavilion does not have the slightest name of virtue.

Dou Wu couldn't sit still, got up slowly, and said: "I heard that Liu Hong, who is notorious and not virtuous, why does Ziqi say this person?" ”

Liu Taosheng's figure was strong, his voice was loud, his face was fearless, and he said loudly: "I have never met this person, I don't know how virtuous he is!" And I heard that the young mansion He Gong for his enlightenment, it can be seen that this son is not unbearable, and he is still weak, but he can be taught, and the close relatives of Emperor Daxing are also this son. ”

Many courtiers also know Liu Tao's stinky temper, this person is not polite in front of the Son of Heaven, under the influence of the strange party atmosphere of the Han Dynasty, he is against Dou Wu like this, but he has won the admiration of the majority of the party, even Dou Wu is the same, he feels that it is the luck of the Han to have such an upright courtier, but Dou Wu still does not want to welcome Liu Hong.

Although Liu Hong does not have any notoriety, but he has a grudge with the Tai students because of Yuan Kui's affairs, and I heard that the Son of Heaven also specially sent the eunuch Cao Teng to personally reward, in his opinion, this son must be close to the eunuchs, and estranged from the party, if it is welcomed, maybe it will be the next Daxing Emperor, if there is another party leader, then what?

He frowned, and said, "If the emperor is a close relative, the king of Hejian is also the same, and the title is also high. ”

"The one who speaks, but the son of the thief who assassinated the same clan?"

Liu Tao just said a word, and Dou Wu, who was pinched, couldn't speak, he waved his hand, looked at the many powerful people surnamed Liu below, and said by name: "Where is Liu Min, who serves the imperial history?" Immediately another courtier came out, worship, he is the servant of the imperial history Liu Min, and he is also known as a virtuous figure in the clan, Dou Wu summoned him, just to rely on him to solve the problem.

"You are a virtuous country, and you are a clan, I don't know if in your opinion, who can worship the ancestral temple?"

"Liu Hong, the Marquis of the Liberation Pavilion."

He just said a word and went back to his place.

The courtiers were dumbfounded, Dou Wu was even more stunned, this group of clans was really a tendon, he raised his head helplessly and looked at the Empress Dowager Dou, but he didn't know that the Empress Dowager was also looking at him, this father who was his idol since he was a child, why did he want to set up that three-year-old son? The queen mother's heart seemed to sound the yelling of the gelding dog, could it be that he really wanted to be a Liang Ji?

Dou Wu put his hope on the Queen Mother, this matter is also easy to say, as long as the Queen Mother says a word, it can be decided.

The party members are not united, although most of them do not want to welcome Liu Hong, but the Han clan headed by Liu Chong is bent on Liu Hong, speaking of which, this Liu Hong is in the same vein as the emperor, and before, because of the humiliation of his mother, he stabbed the prime minister with a sword, in these things, this son has courage and filial piety, which has also become the reason why these clans want to welcome Liu Hong.

Looking at Dou Wu's gaze, the Queen Mother slowly spoke:

"Zhaohuai Lihou Douwu, led thousands of people and hundreds of horses to Hejian Country."

"Welcome to the Pavilion Hou Hong, enthrone the throne!"

The ministers were suddenly silent, and looked at Dou Wu a little strangely, Dou Wu was in a trance for a moment, and also came back to his senses, and thanked the Queen Mother, he was born in a prestigious family, and was the great-great-grandson of the late Sikong Dou Rong, the son of Dingxiang Taishou Dou Feng, he has a very high reputation, and Liu Shu, Chen Fan are called "Three Gentlemen", he is a famous man, but he can't do that Liang Ji, since the Queen Mother has an order, even if the Queen Mother is his daughter, he also chose to obey.

And at this moment, the little fat man who was reading and enjoying himself in the Jiedu Pavilion had no idea that there were more than 1,000 guards who were ready to go, and their target was the Jiedu Pavilion in Raoyang County, Hejian Country.
