52 It is better to go back (2)

Back in Lufu, Liu Feng first buried Xu Shan, but it was very hot and the body could not be stored for a long time. When Liu Feng came back from the funeral for Xu Shan, the sun had sunk in the west, and a messenger in the palace had been waiting in Lu Mansion for a long time with the edict of the Empress Dowager He.

Although he didn't know where the Empress Dowager He, who originally hated herself, came from to summon her, Liu Feng did not hesitate and followed the envoy into the palace. Since he had already made up his mind to leave, Liu Feng didn't bother to ask the envoy what instructions the Empress Dowager He had, and he only said nothing along the way.

The Imperial Palace was the hardest hit area of this military disaster, and the South Palace and Jiade Hall were even burned down by fire. The Changle Palace where the Empress Dowager He is located is better, but it is also a mess, the original group of flowers and flowers is trampled by the rebels, turned into ashes, loyal to the emperor's guards and foreign soldiers who committed crimes here to fight for the day, once left a large number of stumps and broken intestines, although it has been hurriedly cleaned up, but there is still a thick bloody legacy, accompanied by the scorching heat of midsummer emitting a stench, blood-devouring flies buzzing around, in the sunset smoke, highlighting the last desolation of the empire.

The guards of the palace were originally under the joint responsibility of Weiweifu and Guangluxun, but in this military disaster, the guards loyal to the royal family had to fight with Yuan Shao and others in order to protect the sanctity of the palace, and indirectly became the "accomplices" of the eunuchs. Dong Zhuo took someone to escort Liu Wei back to the palace, and by the way, he also took over the palace guards. Several of them recognized Liu Feng, and when they heard that it was the Queen Mother's summons, they did not stop it and let him go directly.

Empress Dowager He was only in her early thirties at this time, and it was the most beautiful years in a woman's life, but she was frightened and haggard in the past few days. When Liu Feng didn't come for a long time, the Empress Dowager He was already impatient, and when His Majesty Liu Feng finished seeing him, the Empress Dowager He snorted heavily: "Zhu Xuhou is such a big shelf, is it possible that since the first emperor left, I, an orphan and widow, will not move the marquis?" ”

Seeing that there was no one else on the left and right except for a few palace maids, Liu Feng pressed the doubts in his heart, and said lightly: "Since the first emperor left, the Queen Mother and His Majesty have never summoned Weichen again!" ”

Mrs. He's color stagnated, her pretty face turned red, her little hands tightly clutched the phoenix robe, her chest rose and fell sharply, and after a long time, she breathed a sigh of relief and said: "So, Zhu Xuhou is complaining about the family?" ”

Liu Feng was noncommittal, and he also ignored the murderous gaze of the Empress Dowager He: "I don't know what instructions Her Majesty the Empress Dowager summoned his ministers?" ”

"Presumptuous! How dare you talk to the mourners like that! Empress Dowager He couldn't stand Liu Feng's indifference anymore, and roared in a trembling voice.

Liu Feng raised his head and glanced at Liu Wei, who was looking at him pitifully with a pale face, and said ruthlessly: "The minister has been in Luoyang for more than a year, I miss my father, and I want to hand in my resignation and go home. ”

Empress Dowager He froze, her stiff body softened, and she was indescribably powerless. A person who is about to resign and go home really does not have to take Her Majesty the Queen Mother in his eyes, besides, the brothers He Jin and He Miao are already dead, and the palace guards outside the palace walls are not something they can move.

Here, I have to envy the freedom of the Han people, they abandon the official as if they abandon the old socks as casually, the big deal is that Lao Tzu goes home to farm, anyway, it is not illegal to open up the wasteland! Open a "Book of the Later Han Dynasty" and a "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms", what you can see everywhere is "no", "call the illness and return to the hometown", it seems that this is fashion.

Liu Feng has no reason to have a good impression of Empress Dowager He, not to mention that he blocked bullets for Liu several times but in exchange for this woman's shouting and shouting, just watching her kill Liu Xie's mother Wang Meiren, and forcing Ling Lingdi's mother, Empress Dowager Dong, is really a stupid femme fatale, Liu Feng doesn't even have the will to look at her more.

Seeing that Empress Dowager He was stunned and didn't speak, Liu Feng bowed and confessed that he was about to retreat.

"Cheng, Chengze......" A call behind the Wei tent was Liu Bian's unique astringent voice.

Liu Feng sighed lightly. For this eternally timid and shy Liu Wei, he really doesn't know what to do. Once he wanted to treat Liu Wei as his younger brother, and once planned to protect him safely, but after breaking through the ghost gate a few times, Liu Feng no longer took it for granted. Even so, watching Liu Wei force Dong Zhuo to death, Liu Feng was still uncomfortable in his heart, but he had to save his life first.

"Chengze, my uncle is dead, only you can help me?" Liu Bian's tone of voice did not look like what an emperor should have, and in fact, Liu Bian was never a de facto emperor.

"Your Majesty, it's late, and there is nothing the minister can do now." Liu Feng said a little gloomily.

"Why is it late? How can it be late! Back then, you could kill Zhang Chun from holding tens of thousands of people in Mali, could it be that those were all rumors in the market, and they were all unbelievable? Empress Dowager He roared almost hoarsely.

"You know, now, even those palace guards don't take me seriously." Speaking of this, Liu Wei was almost about to cry. The emperor is subject to domestic slavery, and he should indeed cry.

Liu Feng was speechless, and it was a little strange, it was said that Dong Zhuo had not really controlled Luoyang at this time, and he openly despised the emperor like this, was he not afraid that the ministers of the court would attack him? It's just that he forgot that these Kansai, who had not been trained in court etiquette, spoke loudly, spit on the ground and shook their noses, which was already a big crime for the high-ranking emperor's family. On the contrary, His Majesty the cowardly Emperor and His Majesty the Queen Mother, who had no opinions and no branches to rely on, could only dare to be angry and dare not speak, hiding in the dark corners of the deep palace and shivering.

"Chengze, you, don't you have soldiers? Bring your soldiers here to protect me, and I will promote you to an officer? Seeing that Liu Feng silently didn't speak, Liu Wei only thought that his heart was moved, and he hurriedly made a wish, if it weren't for the Queen Mother on his side, he would almost rush over and grab Liu Feng's arm.

Liu Feng avoided His Majesty the Emperor's eyes and glanced at the Empress Dowager He. Empress Dowager He finally didn't waste the more than thirty years of rice millet, her eyes turned red, and she avoided Liu Feng's gaze.

"Cheng Ze?" Liu Feng couldn't control the anxiety in his heart anymore, and took two steps to grab the hem of Liu Feng's clothes.

"Your Majesty, it is the crime of the Nine Clans to transfer troops into the city without permission." Letting Liu Wei grasp his arm, Liu Feng helplessly looked at the empty corner on the side, where a foot-high bronze sandalwood stove was faintly displayed.

"I, I am the emperor, I ......" trembling voice, Liu Bian's face turned pale, others have rejected him, but Liu Feng has not, today is the first, possible, and last time.

There was a wordless silence for a while, until a rough voice broke in: "Minister Dong Zhuo knocks on the Queen Mother, knocks on Your Majesty!" ”

"Bold Dong Zhuo, Your Majesty has not been summoned, what is the reason for daring to break into the Queen Mother's bedroom!" Liu Feng held the emperor who was about to soften with one hand, and reprimanded sharply.

"Hahaha! It turns out that Zhu Xuhou is also here, a courtier, and he greets his father sooner or later, doesn't Zhu Xuhou even have such a superficial truth? As he spoke, Dong Zhuo strode into the palace gate and arched his hand to Empress Dowager He and Liu Weida.
