Chapter 53: Abolition
This time, he can be regarded as luring the wolf into the house, but now he is on the thief ship, and he can't get down, whether it is Liu Wei or Liu Xie, he will not spare himself if he gains power, it is better to be open, and it is important to take refuge in the new master!
However, people like loyal people, Zhang Rang understands this truth very well, but it is too much, and this measure must be taken well. What are the things that he has mastered now that Champion Hou needs the most? Zhang Rang's mind turned sharply, but he replied: "Before Your Majesty fell into a coma, he once said that he wanted to abolish the crown prince Liu Wei and establish the prince Liu Xie as the crown prince, so the Zhao Champion Hou led troops into Beijing to preside over the overall situation. ”
It's comfortable to talk to smart people! Yan Zhanshu gave Zhang Rang an appreciative look, not bad! The reason for bringing troops into Beijing is very dignified and magnificent! This makes it difficult for those ambitious clans to stir up trouble.
"Since it is Your Majesty's last wish, we and other courtiers should obey it." Yan Zhanshu spoke, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Zhang Rang and said, "Lord Zhang, does Your Majesty have an edict?!" ”
"Edict?!" Zhang Rang understood the meaning of Yan Zhanshu, the beads of sweat on his forehead flowed down suddenly, and he said with a pale face: "Your Majesty's edict, where did you put it?" I think about it, I think about it-"
Guo Jia smiled lightly on the side and said, "Lord Zhang, you go to the study to look for it, perhaps, on the side of those blank holy decrees, you will find it?" ”
"I'll look for it!" Zhang Rang Wei Tao. Turned around and went to the Hanzhang Palace, looking at the blank holy decree and seal in front of him, Zhang Rang was ruthless, gritted his teeth, sharpened his ink and picked up the pen, and wrote down Liu Hong's edict: Prince Liu Bian, with a frivolous personality, is not suitable for being a king, and should be abolished now, the prince Liu Xie, with a smart personality, is established as a prince, and I will inherit the mandate of heaven after a hundred years.
Your Majesty, thinking that this is also your last wish, Zhang Rang's eyes burst into tears. A gold-inlaid jade seal was turned out in the seal box on the side, looking at the eight characters on it, "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang", and silently counted Liu Bang for nearly four hundred years, thinking that Yan Zheng has only been a year since his rise to the present, how many fierce generals have gathered under his command, and he couldn't help sighing: "Mandate of Heaven? Mandate of Heaven! The seal in his hand was heavily covered.
Holding the holy decree, he hurriedly walked to Yan Zhanshu's side, and said with both hands: "Champion Hou, please see, this is the edict." ”
Yan Zhanshu took a quick look, then gave it to Guo Jia, and said, "Fengxiao, look, if there is no problem, we will give Your Majesty a ride, and then go to the Chongzheng Palace." ”
Guo Jiazai looked at it carefully, shook his head and said: "It's generally correct, but the official position of the lord needs to be promoted, otherwise it will be difficult to suppress the ministers." ”
"Just add, champion Hou Yanzheng, Wen Taowu strategy, sweep Xianbei and Wuhuan, cover the former sages, enter the prime minister, and assist the country, how about it?" Yan Zhanshu looked at Zhang Rang and said with a smile.
"Sweeping the Xianbei? Becoming Prime Minister? Zhang Rang opened his mouth wide, with a look of disbelief, and then said: "Since this dynasty, there are only three dukes, and there is no prime minister, and the champion Hou still needs to think twice." ”
"My lord, this method is wonderful!" Guo Jia chewed it, stroked his palm and said with a smile: "Among the three dukes, the Taiwei has already left his post, Sikong Yuan Feng and Situ Huangwan are all from the family, and they are naturally enemies with the lord. My strength lies in hard power, the strength of the family lies in the soft power, and if you want to govern the country, you must use more talents of the family. Rushing above the court, but it's not our strength! ”
"Not bad! Since I am the prime minister, the third prince can be canceled! The general can also be dispensed with! Yan Zhanshu laughed, he would never make the same mistake as Dong Zhuo back then!
With a wave of his hand, the four guards stepped forward, pushed the horns up, and tightly covered Liu Hong's head and face, only to see that the bottom shook slightly, and there was no movement.
Feeling another cool feeling into the Divine Palace, Yan Zhanshu smiled and said: "Your Majesty has left, where are the prince Liu Wei and the crown prince Liu Xie, we are going to see you now." ”
Zhang Rang couldn't be sad, and hurriedly led the way: "Champion Hou, please come with me." ”
While leading the way, he said: "The two princes have similar temperaments, often play together, and are in the palace at this time. ”
"I heard that the biological mother of the prince Liu Xie is Wang Meiren, who was originally from the Wang clan in Bingzhou, and was poisoned by Queen He because she was favored, but is there such a thing?" Guo Jia asked as he walked.
"The biological mother of the prince Liu Xie is indeed Wang Meiren, but she is a side branch of the Wang family, as for the rest, the slave does not say anything." Zhang Rang smiled, but let Yan Zhanshu take a look. , It seems that Zhang Rang can become the head of the ten permanent servants, there is still a certain reason.
Then he thought again: No wonder Dong Zhuo believed Wang Yun after entering Beijing, it turned out that there was such a relative involved. Empress Dowager Dong has the merit of raising Liu Xie, Dong Zhuo, the pro-family of the Empress Dowager Dong, has the merit of supporting Liu Xie, Wang Yunai is Liu Xie's maternal relative, originally a good match for literature and martial arts, but unfortunately in the end he died of infighting for power and profit! Thinking about it, I'm afraid that the family has a lot of strength.
At this time, the general He entered the mansion, and a group of people were urgently discussing. "This Yan Zheng actually led troops to control Luoyang, how should we fight back?" He Jin asked anxiously.
"This is a chaotic minister and thief, and he should be punished!" Yuan Shao spoke without hesitation.
"But when I entered the city, a eunuch came to deliver a decree, saying that he had entered Beijing by edict." Cao Cao was very annoyed, he found that no matter what, Yan Zhanshu still had a righteous name when he entered Beijing, and so far, he had not killed anyone, and it was really troublesome to find an excuse.
"Then, the general hurried into the palace to find out the news." A scribe spoke. Suddenly provoked a string of white eyes, the palace at this time was under the strict control of the Liaodong Army, how could it be sent to death!
Suddenly, a guard's announcement came from the door: "Your Majesty has a decree, and the ministers go to the court to discuss matters." ”
He Jin heard this: "Don't fight, wait until I go to court and then make plans!" "Went out without hesitation.
"Is it really His Majesty's will?" A terrible thought floated in Cao Cao's heart, and he hurriedly shook his head, not daring to think about it anymore.
Xu You looked at He Jin's back, frowned, turned to Yuan Shao and said: "At the beginning, I looked at the general's face was not good, but I was afraid that this trip would be dangerous, you should hurry back to the West Garden and master a good set of soldiers and horses. ”
Hearing this, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao glanced at each other: "Ziyuan, Meng De, why don't you two go with me to the Xiyuan Army for temporary refuge?" ”
"Very good!" Xu You immediately got up when he heard this, looking impatient.
Cao Cao shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness." Go ahead, the general always has to have someone here, and if there is an emergency, I will rush to your side at the beginning! ”
"Okay." Yuan Shao sighed, the matter was urgent, so he didn't persuade him anymore, and took Xu Youjing to the West Garden.
He Jin went to the court hall, and at a glance, on the dragon chair where Liu Hong often sits, there was a child sitting at this moment, not his nephew, the prince Liu Wei, but the prince Liu Xie, and there was a young general standing on the side, supporting Liu Xie's back with one hand, and was comforting him in a whisper, and Zhang Rang was also standing on the side.
Immediately, he was furious and said: "Where is Your Majesty, who are you, who dare to stand next to the dragon chair?!" ”
Yan Zhanshu raised his eyes and saw that a sturdy military general was angrily pointing at himself and asking, and Zhang Rang said softly on the side: "This is the great general He Jin." ”
"Oh?" Yan Zhanshu looked at He Jin and smiled coldly: "It turns out that you are the general He Jin?" Roaring court, are you guilty?! ”
"What am I guilty of?!" He Jin was furious, as the head of the generals, He Jin felt that Liu Hong had to give himself some face, and there was still someone who dared to reprimand him? !
"Where are the guards? Except for He Jin's official uniform who roared in the court, he knelt outside the hall and waited for disposal! If there is resistance, you can be punished! Guo Jia stood up and ordered loudly.
Hearing this, Dian Wei led people to rush out, stretched out his hand to capture He Jin, took off his helmet, stripped off his armor, stuffed a ball of cloth into his hand, and pressed He Jin's back with one hand, so he taught him to have a hard mouth and couldn't move, so he had to kneel outside the hall! Looking at the many familiar bureaucrats passing in front of him, the surprised gaze, He Jin was really ashamed and angry.
Then this was not the most desperate for He Jin, and after a while, Zhang Rang's voice came from the hall, "Your Majesty returned to heaven yesterday, and the ministers knelt down to receive the will!" ”
I was ordained to be with the sky, but people do not have a hundred years of life, so I left a will. The crown prince Liu argued, frivolous and rude, not suitable for the king, and should be abolished now. The prince Liu Xie, with a bright personality and filial piety, became the crown prince, and he inherited the mandate of heaven after a hundred years.
Champion Hou Yanzheng, Wen Tao Wuluo, successively swept away Wuhuan and Xianbei, expanded the territory for the country, covered the former sages, advanced as the prime minister, and assisted the country.
