As Zhou Jing and the others expected, when Hou Lan and the others learned about this matter, they immediately asked Zhou Jing and the others to fully cooperate with the imperial court to promote this matter, and strive to make each cavalry equipped with bilateral stirrups as soon as possible. Although strictly speaking, these are only the things that the local guards are responsible for, but in the words of those eunuchs, this matter is a very, very important matter, and it must be done well and made bigger and perfect.

The purpose of the eunuchs was naturally to use this matter to involve more scholars and doctors in order to achieve their goals. In fact, in addition to this matter, they had already found all kinds of reasons to prevent many scholars and doctors from concentrating on finding a virtuous successor, and the reason could be said to be all-encompassing.

After all, as eunuchs with rich experience in political struggles, how could they think about dragging their political enemies back when they knew about the matter of bilateral stirrups? If that were the case, how could they have brought down a whole bunch of doctors in the first place?

And after Zhou Jing and others knew about this situation, they also reacted immediately, and continued to officially go to the imperial court, and also submitted the abacus invented by Li Yi before. Well? Is it okay to drag on for so long? Hawkers, don't you have to test it first?

There is only one purpose for this, to be rewarded! In their mouths, Li Yi is simply a person sent by God to the Han Dynasty, so he should be crowned an official, rewarded with money, and given treasures, in short, how to mention it excessively. In this regard, it was naturally impossible for them to agree, but when they objected, Zhou Jing and the others directly threw the question to them. Slowly, the eunuchs and scholars began to quarrel above the court over how to reward Li Yi.

It may sound a little inexplicable, aren't they very busy? Isn't it looking for an heir? Why is it so leisurely to quarrel with a little ghost head? The reason is actually very simple, because whether it is a eunuch or these scholars, it is naturally impossible to run to find an heir by themselves, but to leave it to their subordinates to handle.

The purpose of both sides is to focus the other's attention on the matter of the reward, even if it can only be a little distracted. Of course, in addition to Li Yi's incident, there are many things they quarrel about, such as the promotion of officials, rewards, and various reasons, all of which are so that the other party can't guess their true purpose, or goal.

And all this, with the death of Liu Zhi, has become more understanding, the country cannot be without a king for a day! Everyone understands this, especially the eunuchs who are attached to the imperial power. Because without the protection of the emperor, just by virtue of Empress Dou, well...... Now it's the Empress Dowager Dou. With the protection of the Empress Dowager Dou, how could the eunuchs fight with the scholars and doctors who held real power?

Although there were many people attached to the eunuchs, the scholars were the most powerful force in this era. And Hou Ran and others, in the face of the continuous persecution of the scholars, could only give up the choices they had in the end, and cooperated with everyone to quickly choose the candidate for the successor.

Liu Hong! The great-great-grandson of Emperor Liu Wei of the Han Dynasty, his great-grandfather is Liu Kai, the filial piety king of Hejian, who just turned 10 years old this year. For scholars, eunuchs, and even Dou Wu, who is preparing to become a relative, this is a very satisfying choice. After all, a doll that is only 10 years old is obviously easier to manipulate than a person in his 20s who has his own ideas to be the emperor.

Well...... Of course, the reason why the scholars made such a choice was also for the future of the imperial court, and they believed that with the assistance of Dou Wu, Chen Fan, and Liu Shu, the three virtuous ministers known as the Three Monarchs, Liu Hong would definitely become a virtuous emperor, and at the same time bring more benefits to the scholar community.

But all this has nothing to do with Li Yi, huh...... Or there should be a little bit of a relationship, because before this, the court gave Li Yi a reward. Some bounty, a set of Ugin Monkey Armor, and a Celestial Dragon Halberd.

According to legend, this set of armor and weapons belonged to the former Xiang Yuan, and was later obtained by the imperial court and has been hidden in the arsenal ever since. Although I don't know why I gave it to Ayi as a reward, but ......" Qiao Xuan looked at this set of armor and weapons and kept admiring.

In this era, there was basically no separation between civil and military, or in other words, most of the civil officials used to be military attachés. And Qiao Xuan is like this, as General Du Liao, how can he not see that this set of armor and weapons are rare divine armor? If he is only 3 or 40 years old this year, I am afraid that he will really be tempted to compete with Li Yi.

"Is it really used in the past?" Li Yi looked at this set of armor and weapons and asked curiously, for the armor, he just thought it was very handsome, but the halberd made him like it very much.

Hearing Li Yi's words, Qiao Xuan suddenly smiled bitterly, "It's hard to know, after all, Xiang Ji has been dead for almost 400......"

Hearing this, Li Yi was a little disappointed, but these disappointments were only a little, especially after feeling the texture of the armor and weapons, "In the future, I, Li Yi, will make them famous all over the world again!" When the time comes, the world will say that this is the divine armor used by the flying general Li Yi! ”

"Ambitious!" Qiao Xuan was naturally overjoyed when he heard this, while Li Yan smiled bitterly again. He found that his son never seemed to have taken to heart the ancestral teachings that he was not allowed to serve the imperial court. But in this regard, although Li Yan wanted to teach him a lesson, he couldn't find any reason. Because, Li Yi is so outstanding, so good that Li Yan has to admit that if Li Yi can't be an official, it will definitely be a loss to the world.

In January 168, Liu Hong officially succeeded to the emperor's throne, changed the name of the year to Jianning, and appointed Chen Fan as the Taifu and Dou Wu as the general. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was no prime minister, and most of the real power was handled by Shangshutai, and the record of Shangshushi was the person in charge of Shangshutai, who was in charge of all government affairs.

In this way, power will not be too easily concentrated in the hands of one person, and the power of the emperor will become greater.

Immediately afterwards, there was another round of amnesty, which the new emperor always liked to do when he ascended the throne. Of course, the most important thing is the accession of the new emperor to the throne, which means that the struggle between the eunuchs and the scholars will escalate again. After all, has there ever been a simpler and easier time to do than when the emperor was young?

"What year did Emperor Ling ascend the throne? Alas, I only remember that the Yellow Turban Rebellion was 7 years of light and harmony......" Li Yi thought helplessly, but although he didn't know the specific time, he still knew that the ascension of Emperor Ling meant that the arrival of the Yellow Turban Rebellion was getting closer and closer.
