The emperor was just about to write the verdict of Cai Yong, when suddenly he knelt down alone, "Your Majesty, slow down!" When Empress Dowager Liu Hong saw it, it turned out to be Lu Qiang, a regular servant.

Then Lu Qiang said all kinds of good things about Cai Yong, his attitude was sincere, and he said it very touchingly, and Liu Hong was moved. So, Liu Hong pardoned Cai Yong's capital crime and changed it to: All the Cai family were punished by tongs and exiled to Shuofang County, and they were not returned in case of pardon!

It's a pity, Cai Dacaizi, who was rich and wealthy, finally left this court, left the position of working for the welfare of the common people, and at the same time cut off the only route to realize his ideals and revenge, was tortured and exiled, and led his family to the remote Shuofang City. However, Yang Qiu didn't want to let Cai Yong go, so he sent assassins to lurk halfway, ready to kill Cai Yong, but Cai Dacai's fame is too great, and the influence of the celebrity effect is also quite strong, strong enough to save his life; It is said that the assassin has been ambushed, but he admires Cai Yong's talent and laments Cai Yong's luck, and finally he gives up the assassination operation and disappears from the public eye.

After receiving the news that the assassin had not assassinated, Yang Qiu flew into a thunderous explosion. But later, when he calmed down, he had to think of other ways to get rid of Cai Yong, what way to do it? bribed the magistrate of Shuofang County and gave a certain official of Shuofang County a lot of money, the meaning is very clear, that is, to find an opportunity to kill Cai Yong! However, Yang Qiu would never have dreamed that this official from Shuofang County would have the same idea as the previous assassin, not only did not do a black hand, but also secretly told Cai Yong to be careful.

In September, Tai Lieutenant Zhang Hao was dismissed, and Tai Chang Chen Qiu was promoted to Tai Lieutenant. Sikong Laiyan died.

In October, Yuan Feng, the captain of the Tun Cavalry, was promoted to Sikong; Also this month, Liu Hong had a conflict with his queen Song, and in a fit of rage, he ordered the abolition of the queen of the Song family and imprisoned him in a violent room!

Who is the Queen of the Song Family? Do you still remember the story we told before about Wang Fu framing Liu Kui, the king of Bohai? The Empress of the Song family was the niece of the wife of Liu Kui, the king of the Bohai Sea. Wang Fu, who has been involved in politics for many years, has been worried about Empress Song blowing the pillow wind of her aunt's family, who was framed to death six years ago, in front of the mature emperor, so he has been trying to find a way to get rid of Empress Song! He pondered for a long time, and finally came up with a clever plan, that is, a small report and pillow wind, and the implementation steps were: first of all, he made a small report in front of the emperor, saying that Empress Song hated His Majesty very much because His Majesty neglected him, and cursed you with the magic of the left way of the side door, so that you would die early! The second step is to let the people around him brainwash the emperor every day in front of the emperor; The third step is to mobilize those concubines who are usually jealous of Empress Song to take turns blowing the pillow wind to the emperor. Liu Hong, who has received so many years of eunuch brainwashing and education, has soft ears, and he still doesn't really believe it when he makes such a fuss, so Liu Hong issued an edict to abolish the position of Empress Song and imprisoned her in a violent room, and soon Queen Song died of worry. Empress Song's father, Song Yu, and his brothers were implicated and killed. Shangshu Lu Zhi wrote a letter to complain for the party and Empress Song, but Liu Hong did not listen.

In November, Taiwei Chen Qiu was dismissed. On December 12, Guanglu Doctor Qiao Xuan was promoted to lieutenant.

Besides, Xianbei, although he was defeated by Zhao Bao's army last time, he did not hurt his vitality. However, the habit of invading and plundering year after year has not changed, so this year, Xianbei invaded Jiuquan County again. At this time, the corpse of the Southern Xiongnu Tu Teruo died in Shan Yu, and his son called for the successor Shan Yu.

Xianbei invaded, just invade, anyway, Liu Hong was used to it at this time. In the palace, you have to do what you have to do according to your plan. Of course, he will not be idle every day surrounded by a group of big fools he recruited before, they are thinking about how to expand their power all day long, and some people fool the emperor: praise the images of 32 people such as Hongdu Literature Le Song and Jiang Lan! The meaning is very simple, that is, to make a celebrity biography for this so-called university scholars, and to persuade scholars! On the surface, this idea is quite good, because whether in ancient times or in modern times, expanding the influence of celebrities will undoubtedly bring positive energy to the society and let many people have an example to follow. So at that time, Shangshu ordered Yangqiu to write a letter of advice, but Liu Hong did not listen.

The title of this chapter is the nature of a merchant, so who is this merchant, Emperor Liu Hong. So why is it said to be a businessman, and listen to my next story.

In this world, people can be divided into two categories regardless of gender, one is a lover of money and the other is not a lover of money; For people who love money, they stare at money all day long, how much they can earn or earn today, how much they can earn tomorrow, have a money-making plan every day, and will run around for money all their lives; For people who don't love money, in fact, money is just an accessory, as long as it can meet the necessities of life, then it doesn't matter how much you spend and how much you earn; But Liu Hong belongs to the former! So, what does Liu Hong, who is the king of a country, want something, and he is so greedy for money, how to explain it?

I happened to see a person on the Internet who is very researched in the history of the team wrote such a passage about Emperor Ling, and I thought that this person knew Liu Hong very well, and I copied this passage for everyone to read:

To know a person, one must first know his childhood. No matter how far a person flies or how high he climbs, childhood memories can almost determine the direction of his future life. So if you want to understand Liu Hong, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, you must start with his childhood! When Liu Hong was born, although he had the name of a descendant of the Liu family and the title of Marquis of Jiedu Pavilion, he had to trace it back to his great-great-grandfather, who was Emperor Liu Wei of the Han Dynasty. So the throne is so far away from Liu Hong. Liu Hong was very poor in his early years, and his life was quite difficult. It is estimated that he can eat a few good meals, and he will be brilliant to the sky! Creation makes people, but fate arranged such an ending: after the death of Emperor Liu Zhi of the Han Dynasty, the Empress Dowager Dou let this descendant of the royal family, who was so poor that he had no support rate, ascend to the sky in one step, as if he was in a dream!

After Liu Hong became the emperor, he often snickered at one person in his heart: his predecessor, Liu Zhi, Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty. Why ridicule? Stupid! As an emperor, he can't make money, a fool...

Yes, those who scold others for being fools often think they are smart. The smart Liu Hong is not ready to be an emperor who is "under the whole world, if he is not a prince, and if he is not a prince and a minister, he is not a prince and a minister", but he wants to treat the world as a private property that can be bought and sold!

So what's the most valuable thing in this world? Headhunters will say that it is talent; The real estate chamber will say that it is land. But Liu Hong said: It's not right! The most valuable thing in the world is not talent, not land, but the officials who control the circulation of talent and land market!
