Chapter 31: The Han Palace is in shock
In the palace, at dusk, Emperor Ling of Han, who was still in good spirits during the day, suddenly fell into a coma, and suddenly the whole palace was in a panic, the talented women of the palace shouted and screamed, and the attendants and eunuchs were in a mess. On the one hand, Qian Shuo summoned the imperial physician of the palace to treat the emperor urgently, and on the other hand, he urgently mobilized his Xiyuan forbidden army to surround the emperor's bedroom, trying to block all news.
However, the news cannot be blocked, where there are people, there are fine works, and the palace is the largest pile of people in the world; For a while, the originally calm and sacred palace immediately became a paradise for spies, countless figures swayed around in the dark corners of the palace city, and all kinds of eyeliners that were usually deeply hidden seemed to be resurrected at this moment, and one by one news was constantly passed back and forth, some of these news were transmitted outside the palace, some were transmitted outside the city, and some were even transmitted to all parts of the frontier......
For a while, the entire palace, the entire Luoyang City, and even the whole world were holding their breath because of the emperor's coma, and countless pairs of eyes in the darkness were watching, thinking, and waiting for the further development of things......
This is the emperor, this is the imperial power, and it is no exaggeration to care for the safety of the world as one person!
Emperor Han Ling didn't know how long he had been asleep, he felt that since the day he entered the palace, he had never slept so sweetly for more than twenty years, no worries, no interference, just sleeping peacefully, and he also had a dream, an extremely magical dream!
In the dream, Emperor Han Ling found himself turned into an incomparably noble five-clawed purple gold dragon, swallowing clouds and spitting mist, soaring between heaven and earth, and the city of Luoyang where he lived became incomparably small at his feet, but everything was very real, and he swept all the places in the city one by one with his gaze......
"This is the location of my palace, how did it become a swamp?" The Ten Servants were transformed into a flock of gray jackals wandering inside, as if waiting for an opportunity to feast on human blood, and two little golden snakes were playing and disturbing in the mire of the swamp, unaware of the impending catastrophe, their two sons.
There is the Great Situ Mansion...... Wang Yun has become an old watchdog, although he is still loyal to the guardian of the country, but the old dog's canine teeth have fallen off, his claws have been dulled, and he can't do anything except bark a few times.
The golden dragon's gaze turned, oh! β¦β¦ There is the General's Mansion, how can He Jin, who is sitting behind the handsome case, holding a pig's head? β¦β¦ By the way, he was originally a stupid pig, and he was promoted by himself in order to balance the power of the court.
At this time, his general's mansion is so lively, the pair of rats that look very similar should be a pair of brothers, and now they are fighting for a little food, but they don't see it at all, not far behind them, a strange snake is staring at them, what a strange snake, half black, half white, with a towering head, it seems to have the potential to turn into a dragon......
Just when the golden dragon wanted to see more clearly, he was attracted by a high wolf howl, and raised his eyes to look, in the Beibi Mountain outside Luoyang City, I don't know when a fierce and cunning 'greedy wolf' with ribs and wings appeared, and he was looking at the backyard of his palace and drooling, there seemed to be something there to attract him? β¦β¦β¦β¦
Hehe! It turns out that this 'greedy wolf' is thinking about a beautiful peacock in his harem, which is his most beloved daughter!
The golden dragon looks like this! Fly! β¦β¦ When he flew high above the Nine Heavens, a sudden burst of thunder swept by, and then the dragon scales on his body began to fall off in large pieces, and the dragon horns and dragon whiskers also left him, and finally showed his prototype, which turned out to be a very ordinary cauliflower snake......
Oh, yes! He was originally a cauliflower snake born in the mortal world, and it was the arrangement of fate that brought him to the palace, pasted a golden lin, and became an invincible dragon. The cauliflower snake, which had lost its dragon power, suddenly fell from the high clouds......"
"Ah......h With a scream like a fall from the sky, Emperor Han Ling finally woke up from his coma.
The imperial doctors who were guarding on the side were all relieved to see that the emperor had finally woken up, not only them, but also the entire palace and the entire Luoyang City were relieved because of the emperor's awakening---- "It's really scared to death!" β
Half a ring, Emperor Han Ling, who came to his senses, saw everything in front of him clearly, and the sight was still the dark palace that had imprisoned him all his life, and now this place was more like a lifeless coffin, even if he struggled desperately and shouted, he couldn't escape, this may be the fate of every emperor.
The prince Liu Xie leaned closely to his side, his eyes were red, and his young face was full of horror and grief, obviously he had just cried bitterly; And Qian Shuo, his most trusted eunuch, knelt on the ground, looking at him with the same trepidation.
"Someone! send the prince Liu Xie to the palace of the Queen Mother and take care of him"; The son's tears were like a shot in the arm, inspiring the last trace of fighting spirit in Emperor Han Ling's body, the end is approaching, and now he is going to fulfill the last duty of an emperor.
The prince Liu Xie was born to Emperor Ling's favorite Wang Meiren, and later Queen He sent someone to secretly poison Wang Meiren out of jealousy, women are sometimes so unreasonable, for the favor of her husband, for her own children, a weak woman who usually doesn't even dare to kill a chicken, but can slaughter people alive!
Seeing one of his wives poison another wife, although Emperor Han Ling is the Son of Heaven, he is helpless, he can't kill this wife too! In desperation, Emperor Ling had no choice but to send his son Liu Xie to his biological mother, Empress Dowager Dong, to raise him, in order to protect the safety of his young son.
Immediately, an attendant rushed in, carefully escorted the prince Liu Xie away, looking at the young son when he was separated, he was reluctant to look at him, although Emperor Han Ling's heart was like a knife, but he still waved his hand ruthlessly, there were some dark things he didn't want his young son to see; came quickly, went quickly, and the palace people retreated again, leaving only Qian Shuo still kneeling beside the emperor's bedside, as the emperor's first confidant eunuch, he knew that his time had come.
"Your Majesty wants to establish the Emperor's Association, you must first kill He Jin, so as to prevent future troubles!" Without any cover-up, nor any superfluous nonsense, Qian Shuo knelt a few steps forward and said directly, he has served the emperor all his life, how can he not know what Emperor Han Ling thinks in his heart, at this time, he should say it, if everything has to be said by the emperor himself, then what is the use of these minions.
Emperor Ling closed his eyes again without saying a word, "How can he not know that it took him twenty years to barely balance the forces in all aspects, and it is a small matter to kill He Jin, but a series of power struggles that may be triggered later, ...... one carelessness will cause Xiao Wall!" β
"Your Majesty has forgotten the matter of Wang Mang, Huo Guang, and Liang Ji?" Qian Shuo's words were really words to mend the sword, and Emperor Han Ling, who was still meditating with his eyes closed, was immediately shocked and suddenly opened his eyes.
Why the emperor's reaction was so great, just look at the resumes of the above three people, everyone will understand;
Wang Mang, born in a relative, poisoned Emperor Ping of Han, and directly usurped the throne and became the emperor, which triggered Liu Xiu's rebellion and the prosperity of Guangwu.
Huo Guang, born a relative, abolished Liu He, the king of Changyi, and re-established Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty.
Liang Ji, born in a relative, this guy is even more ruthless, he poisoned two emperors in his life, namely Emperor Quality and Emperor Chong, and then set up Emperor Huan.
These three people have caused great turmoil in the Han Dynasty, seriously threatened the imperial power, and even replaced the emperor, and what they have in common is that they are all born relatives, and who are the relatives in the court now? Of course, it is He Jin, who is in the position of nepotism, and General He.
"Yes! If the eunuch is in power, it will be an empty emperor at most, but Jiangshan is still surnamed Liu, because it is impossible for a eunuch to be an emperor; But relatives are different, they can take their place; Ay! Although eunuchs are not a good thing, the lesser of two evils is compared! β
"Message: General Zhao He Jin enters the palace to discuss matters! Then ......" After saying this sentence word by word, the Spirit Emperor trembled slightly, raised a hand as if he had used all his strength, and secretly made a killing posture.
"No! ......", Qian Shuo beat his chest with his right hand, and gave a military salute to the emperor for the first time, since he was appointed to take charge of the forbidden army, he knew that he was a sword in the emperor's hand, and now it was finally time for the sword to be unsheathed and drink blood.
Watching Qian Shuo walk out of the dormitory with majestic steps, Emperor Han Ling felt that his mission had finally been completed, the medicinal effect of the 'heart booster' had passed, boundless exhaustion hit, and his ears seemed to be once again called by the emperors of the Han Dynasty...... "Let's go...... Let's go, it's time to go! β
"Huh! Is the time up? It's time to go, it's time to go! Emperor Han Ling felt that his soul was finally freed from the shackles of the imperial palace, and slowly rose up and became free............
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The 'Ten Standing Attendants' who rushed to hear the news all gathered at the door of the dormitory under the leadership of Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, and everyone was pale; The emperor's coma frightened everyone, and the sky was changing right in front of him. The successive changes of imperial power were a huge test for them as eunuchs, "If you win, the power will be overwhelming, the wealth and glory will be rich, and everything will be easy to say......; If you are defeated, you may be in a different place, the nine clans will be wiped out, and you will not even have a chance to speak in the future. β
As soon as Qian Shuo, who was holding a sword, walked out of the door of the dormitory, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others surrounded him, everyone stared at him nervously, and some of them with poor psychological quality were already wiping cold sweats.
Ten people, twenty jackal-like eyes looked at each other, Qian Shuo nodded slightly, and immediately everyone understood; In fact, they had discussed this situation countless times in the past few months, and the various response plans had already been memorized.
According to the plan formulated in advance, Zhao Zhong in the 'Ten Standing Attendants' led the men to defend the three layers and the outer three layers of the emperor's bedroom, and was responsible for isolating all news inside and outside; Zhang Rang went to the harem to stabilize Empress He and Empress Dowager Dong, and it was still easy to deal with these two women who had no political acumen; As for Qian Shuo, he took a few people straight to the military headquarters of the inner court, and as for the others, they performed their own duties, making everything in the palace look the same as usual.
The soldiers were very fast, and soon several decrees issued in the name of the emperor were issued from the inner court controlled by the eunuchs.
The first will: to confiscate all the jade seals, talismans, arrows, talismans and other tokens in the palace, and at the same time strictly prohibit the mobilization of any soldiers and horses inside and outside Luoyang City.
The second will: order the forbidden army in the West Garden to be secretly on guard, secretly block the inside and outside of the palace, strictly prohibit anyone from entering and leaving, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!
The third decree: send a special envoy to quickly Zhao General He into the palace to discuss matters.
At this point, the palace coup d'Γ©tat in the sixth year of Emperor Lingdi Zhongping has officially kicked off, please recommend votes to support! Hehe!
