Volume 2 The Yellow Turban Rebellion Chapter 89 Emperor Xian's ascension to the throne

In October of the first year of Emperor Zhaoning of the Han Dynasty, the imperial court announced to the world. The young emperor Chen Liuwang Liu Xie, and established Liu Xie as the emperor. The name of the year was changed to Yonghan, which was to dedicate the emperor to the Han Dynasty.

October 15 is the day when Emperor Xian ascends the throne. From less than dawn to noon, Liu Xie never drank a sip of water. It's not that it's not allowed in etiquette, but that Liu Xie himself doesn't want to drink. Many ministers thought that Liu Xie was young and willful, but who knew that Liu Xie, who was only eight or nine years old, actually thought about how to regain imperial power?

The complicated etiquette has passed, and at this time, Liu Bian has knelt on the throne of Emperor Liu Xie with the support of the chamberlain. Help? Yes, too, support! Even if Liu Bian doesn't care about the throne, but if he is so aggrieved and relinquishes the throne, Liu Bian's heart is also a lingering depression. And Liu Xie, who was nearly a foot long than Liu Bian Chapter 89 Emperor Xian's ascension to the throne, was holding his head high, and his whole body was covered in dark black brocade. Tiara on the head.

The crown is painted in black color to symbolize the sky, and the bottom is painted in silk to symbolize the earth. The front and back of the crown plate are also a symbol of heaven and earth. Twelve hanging before and after, each through twelve small square colorful jade, according to the order of Zhu, white, Cang, Huang and Xuan, symbolizing the five elements of life and the operation of the years. Liu Xie didn't seem to feel the slightest discomfort, straightened his waist and slowly knelt down.

"Greetings to Your Majesty!" When Liu Xie knelt down and sat down, in the main hall of Weiyang Palace, all the ministers were bowing their heads and shouting!

"All love is exempt!" Looking at the top of the main hall, the more than 100 important ministers of the Han Court who were separated from each other on the left and right, Liu Xie's heart was full of fire. This is the throne, and this is the court of the Liu family of the Han Dynasty! Liu Xie's heart was secretly discussed, and his heart was agitated. However, when Liu Xie's eyes turned to Dong Zhuo, who was sitting down and standing on the left, Liu Xie's heart sank again. This is the person who has taken away the power that should belong to me.

Liu Xie stared at Dong Zhuo through the twelve in front of the crown on his head, and the anger in his heart made Liu Xie's facial features begin to distort. Dong Zhuo seemed to be a little aware of it, turned his head, and looked at Liu Xie. Seeing this, Liu Xie was shocked, and hurriedly withdrew his gaze and looked towards the palace. Fortunately, there is a faΓ§ade in the way! Liu Xie secretly relieved himself and calmed himself down.

"Today is the day of His Majesty's accession to the throne, change the name of the year to Yonghan, hope that the heavens will favor you, and the ancestors will bless the Han Dynasty to be prosperous forever!" Li Ru continued to take the place of the former Yellow Gate role, spread out the edict with both hands, and paused after reading it aloud, as if waiting for anyone to object. When the new emperor succeeded to the throne, it was inevitable to change the era name, and the ministers saw that there was no big problem with the era name, and they did not put forward any opinions.

Seeing this, Li Ru continued: "The prince of the feudal prince is identified as the king of Hongnong, and the fief Hongnong!" ”

"Hou Xiangao, the champion of the Northern Regions, has followed the first emperor and guarded the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty for the first emperor since he became a talent. In the past, Cai Yilang was unjustly exiled, and the champion Hou Xiangao escorted him for thousands of miles in order to fulfill his filial piety, and he protected Cai Yilang in the war-torn place in northern Xinjiang, which is a model of filial piety. The champion Hou not only has no complaints against the court, but also collects the Huns, breaks the Xianbei, and flattens the yellow scarf, and has made outstanding achievements. Specially exempt Xiang Ao Champion Marquis, worship as the Duke of Zhenguo! ”

"In the past, the eunuchs were in turmoil, and their relatives interfered in politics. Dong Zhou Mu rushed thousands of miles to Luoyang Jingshi, and King Qin rescued him, and his achievements were extraordinary. Li Ru paused slightly, raised his head and looked at the ministers under the main hall and said loudly: "Move Dong Zhou Mu to the prime minister, worship Yi County, take charge of the military and political duties of the imperial court, and assist Your Majesty in handling the government affairs!" ”

"Your Majesty! Cannot! Even if the champion Hou Xiangao has outstanding merits, the title of Duke can only be sealed after the royal family, please think twice! Taifu Yuan Kui listened, he didn't have time to think too much, and drank out in a hurry. Although he was in a hurry, Yuan Kui was also extremely smart, avoiding Dong Zhuo's self-proclaimed position as the prime minister of the country, and talking about Xiang Ao.

Yuan Kui never thought that Dong Zhuo would be canonized so indiscriminately, could it be that Xiang Ao and Dong Zhuo had something to do in private?

"What do you mean by what Taifu said?" Li Ru's sharp voice came from above the main hall: "The champion Hou has worked hard and is willing to guard the northern frontier for His Majesty forever." If the champion Hou is in the court, will the official eunuch's relatives have such an opportunity to harm His Majesty? The champion Hou kept his promise to the first emperor, and he couldn't rush back in such an urgent matter, why was Taifu worried? If a person as loyal and filial as the champion Hou can't get the approval of the court and His Majesty, wouldn't it chill the hearts of the people in the world? ”

"However, since the time of the Great Ancestor, the ancestral system has been like this..."

"Mrs. Yuan!" Before Yuan Kui could continue, Dong Zhuo stepped forward, stared at Yuan Kui and said: "If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have a mistake, you will be punished, this is the way of the emperor." Since the champion Hou became an official, what is the fault? ”

"Uh... Not really. "Yuan Kui Yakou.

"Is there any unfilial piety and disloyalty?"

"Nothing!"

"Then why did Taifu target Champion Hou so much?" Dong Zhuo's voice suddenly roared fiercely: "The prestige of the Ru Yuan clan is so great, the fourth and third princes!" Could it be that Taifu is worried that there are people in the world whose reputation surpasses that of the Ru Yuan clan? What is the intention? ”

Yuan Kui was shocked when he heard this. The name of the fourth world and the third prince can only be praised by others on weekdays, if it is brought to the court, how can people with a heart not know how to cover the Yuan family with a big crime of disobedience. In the past, the people of the family would give the Yuan family some face, but now Dong Zhuo... Yuan Kui was frightened in his heart, and cold sweat flowed down his back.

"Your Majesty Mingjian!" Yuan Kui was so frightened that he prostrated on the ground, and his voice trembled a little: "The Yuan family has been loyal to the Han Dynasty for generations and loyal to the royal family!" ”

Not to mention Yuan Kui, even if all the ministers are scared, if Dong Zhuo is arrested, not only the Yuan family, but also the whole world will not have a good time.

"Your Majesty Mingjian!" Cai Yong hurriedly took the lead in risking death to admonish.

"Your Majesty Mingjian!" Immediately, more than 100 ministers in the main hall followed. Seeing this, Dong Zhuo's face was even more unsightly. Want to do persecution?

"Dong Xiangguo, Yuan's loyalty can be learned!" Liu Xie was also frightened, and directly changed his title and recognized Dong Zhuo's position as Xiangguo.

"Please Dong Xiangguo to take a clear look!" In desperation, Yuan Kui had no choice but to make a gesture to Dong Zhuo, shouting the name of Xiangguo, and acknowledging Dong Zhuo's position as Xiangguo with Liu Xie. Dong Zhuo seemed to attach importance to the family, but Yuan Kui didn't dare to gamble with his life, let alone the life of the entire Yuan family. Seeing this, Dong Zhuo smiled fiercely, and said proudly in his heart: Mr. Jia's plan can really be successful.

Dong Zhuo knew that many of the edicts he issued for Liu Xie today would be blocked, but he never thought that Jia Xu's strategy would be so simple to clean up Yuan Kui and the others. Seeing that no one in the hall objected, Li Ru also had a slight upturn in the corners of his mouth, and sneered in his heart.

"Taifu, please get up!" Dong Zhuo was still a little excited in his heart, as long as he sat in the position of Xiangguo, it would be much easier for him to act in the future, but he had to be admitted by the ministers of the court, so he stepped forward to help Yuan Kui and said: "This Xiangguo is also in a hurry, and he is talking nonsense, Taifu must not go to his heart!" ”

Yuan Kui smiled bitterly when he heard this, can you Dong Zhuo be more shameless? At this point, Dong Zhuo's position as Xiangguo has been completed, which is the biggest harvest today. Dong Zhuo returned to his position and motioned for Li Ru to continue reciting the edict.

"Except for relatives, beheading adultery, everyone in the world has merit. Han Fu is specially appointed as the pastor of Jizhou, and guards Jizhou for His Majesty; Feng Liu Dai is the history of Yanzhou Thorn, and Feng Kongling is the history of Yuzhou Thorn; Feng Zhang Zhi is the Taishou of Nanyang, Feng Kongrong is the Minister of Beihai, Zhang Miao is the Taishou of Chen Liu, Yuan Shao is the Taishou of Bohai, Wang Kuang is the Taishou of Hanoi, Feng Baoxin is the Prime Minister of Jibei, Zhang Zhi is the Taishou of Nanyang, and Feng Qiaomao is the Taishou of Dongjun..."

The more the ministers under His Royal Highness heard it, the more shocked they became, what did Dong Zhuo mean by this? These people who received the reward were either afraid of Dong Zhuo, or they were against Dong Zhuo's escape, why did they have to be canonized one by one today, at least they were too observant.

"Your Majesty's succession to the throne is a good omen, and you should be granted amnesty to the world!"

After that, the edict made the ministers above the hall react unexpectedly. Dong Zhuo not only rehabilitated everyone who was in trouble with the party, but also reused Xun Shuang, Chen Ji, Han Rong and others.

Yuan Kui, Cai Yong and others, who reacted, thought for a moment and knew what Dong Zhuo meant. It is nothing more than wanting to reconcile with the people who had grudges before, and the reuse of the people of the family and the former party members is also to let the people of the world not be too hostile to Dong Zhuo. And Dong Zhuo's move was also in the hands of Liu Xie and the ministers of the current dynasty, even if the reward was a little exaggerated, but no one stopped him.

"The Great Han needs our concerted efforts, and I hope that all the ministers will abandon their previous suspicions, serve Your Majesty, and support the Great Han!" Li Ru finished reading the edict with a dry mouth, and said in a self-righteous conclusion.

"It is our duty to share the worries of Your Majesty!" At the same time, all the ministers bowed deeply and expressed their loyalty to Liu Xie.

Soon, the news of the emperor's reward for the ministers spread all over the world. Especially Xiang Ao's sealing of the public, it caused an uproar in the world. In the hundreds of years of the Han Dynasty, there has never been a saying that a foreign surname is a duke. Now that Xiang Ao has not yet been established, his title is so high, how can he not let the rest of the people think about it, especially in such a sensitive period. After receiving the edict, Xiang Ao was shocked, and the rest of the people in the Northern Regions also frowned.

Five Plains of the Northern Regions.

"Lord, why did Dong Zhuo do this?" Hu Zhao was also puzzled, and at the same time was more worried about the impact of the closure of the public on Xiang Ao.

Xiang Ao shook his head and sighed: "How can I know? ”

"As for why we don't have to think about it yet!" Xi Zhong took over the words on the side: "Our first consideration is the impact of Dong Zhuo's move on the lord!" ”

Yes also! Not only did Xiang Ao frown, but the rest of the people also nodded frequently at the reminder of Xi Zhong.

"Since the establishment of the Han Dynasty, there has never been a king with a foreign surname." Xi Zhong rubbed his face in distress and said, "Dong Zhuo's move, Zhong can see three key points for the time being. First, Dong Zhuo wants to show favor to the lord. As Dong Zhuo Chaotang said, the lord has always shown that he does not have the slightest disagreement with the Han court. Since the lord has never intervened in the affairs of the court, Dong Zhuo doesn't want the lord to have any objections at this time! ”

"Second, Cai Yong and Cai's family are famous all over the world, and they are great Confucians, if they can get the support of Cai Gong, Dong Zhuo will be able to have a lot less obstacles in the court, not to mention that Cai Gong is the father-in-law of the lord."

After that, Xi Zhong looked a little worried and continued: "As for the third... The third is that Dong Zhuo wants to pull the lord over Dong Zhuo's warship. Although Dong Zhuo has tens of thousands of elite soldiers, he can control the court. But Dong Zhuo was more worried that the heroes in various places outside Luoyang would not accept his rule, and even raised troops to attack in the name of King Qin. But if everyone in the world is against Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo is also weak. ”

Xiang Ao heard the analysis of Xi Zhong, and his brows furrowed even deeper.
