Chapter 50: The Deposed Empress

"No wonder you are in a hurry to summon me today, it turns out that it is for those dogs!" Listening to Liu Qi's words, Li Ji soured up, and sneered regardless of it: "Old dog! When these cubs are born, they raise them themselves! Why throw it away to others! ”

The ruthless words were like sharp swords, stabbing at Liu Qi on the sickbed.

Liu Qi's face turned pale with anger, his chest rose and fell violently, and he said in a trembling voice: "You go!" ”

"......" Li Ji was still angry, and opened her mouth to say something.

"Let's go!" Liu Qi glanced at her in disgust, turned his face away, and yelled roughly.

Kurihime got up in hatred, reluctantly saluted, turned around and left.

Liu Qi closed his eyes, and tears seemed to slide down his pillow.

The sentence of 'old dog' completely shattered Liu Qi's illusions, and he no longer had any hope for Li Ji. When they met at a young age, they smiled and smiled. There is no beginning, and there is an end. Life is like a reverse journey, you and I are on the road, we must let go of some things and some people. From now on, there will be no place for you in my heart.

After recovering from his illness, Liu Qi began to consider replacing his heir. The abolition of the crown prince, such a high-profile event, must be recognized by the imperial family and supported by important ministers in the court.

In the royal family, distant branches such as the King of Chu and the King of Yan should not have opinions, they are side branches, even if the throne is like raindrops, it will not fall on their heads. No profit can not be early, they will not meddle in their affairs.

Near branches such as Liu An, the king of Huainan, and Liu Zhi, the king of Suchuan, both of whom are the grandsons of Gaozu Liu Bang, may have some ideas, but the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms has only passed two years, and the princes and kings still have shadows in their hearts, and they dare not make small moves even if they have ideas. This branch is also negligible.

In addition to his own lineage, he is his younger brother Liu Wu, the king of Liang, and his nephew, Liu Deng, the acting king.

Liu Deng's father, Liu Shen, was the son of Emperor Wen Liu Heng, who was not valued because of his biological mother's low status, and died early, and had no influence in the court. Liu Deng can be ruled out.

After all the calculations, the only thing to watch out for is his half-brother Liu Wu, King of Liang!

Liu Qi's heart was in turmoil.

In terms of etiquette, his younger brother Liu Wu is the second son of the first emperor, he has no son-in-law in this vein, and his confidence is insufficient. If Liu Rong is abolished, his younger brother's restless heart will be active again. What's more, the mother has always been partial to her younger brother.

Ruthless is the most emperor's family! Coerced by the supreme imperial power, fathers, sons and brothers calculated each other, and no one could stay out of it.

There are also several important ministers in the DPRK and China, and their attitudes must be considered. Wei Qihou Dou Ying, who served as Liu Rong's teacher, would he agree to abolish the crown prince? There is also a waiting for Zhou Yafu. A year ago, Prime Minister Tao Qing retired, and Zhou Yafu succeeded him as Prime Minister. And what does he think?

In order to test the reaction of various factions, Liu Qi decided to throw stones and ask for directions.

In September 151 BC, Liu Qi deposed Empress Bo.

In the Jiaofang Palace, the envoy read the edict in a low voice.

"Queen Bo has been a match for more than 20 years. No children, no daughters, no virtues, no deeds. It is not enough to look up to the temple, and the mother is the world. On it, the seal ribbon, go to the honorific number, and retreat to the other palace. Extraordinary ......"

Empress Bo burst into tears. Despite her premonitions, when this day really came, she was still sad and her heart was torn apart.

After the envoy read the edict, he handed the silk book to Da Changqiu, who was beside the queen, and hurriedly turned around and left. In everyone's eyes, the shadow queen is completely finished.

Empress Bo withdrew from the stage of history and died quietly three years later.

The queen was abolished, and the middle palace was ownerless, attracting the attention of the government and the opposition, and a good show kicked off.
