At the end of September, Dong Zhuo asked people to convene civil and military officials above the fourth rank in Luoyang to discuss the matter. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
In the huge Jiade Palace, hundreds of civil and military officials are lined up from the hall to the outside of the hall, which is a scene that has never been seen since Emperor Huan came.
After the hundred officials arrived, Dong Zhuo asked Lu Bu to "escort" the Empress Dowager He and the Young Emperor into the palace, and after the Empress Dowager He, the Young Emperor and the hundred civil and military officials entered the palace, Dong Zhuo was late, and Jiang Sheng followed Dong Zhuo into the palace, his face was cold, and the accompanying Xuanjia warriors were guarding the entrance of the palace.
After Dong Zhuo entered the palace, he stood on the lower left side of the young emperor, and Jiang Sheng stood in the sequence of generals, and there were senior generals such as the general of the chariot cavalry in front of him.
Dong Zhuo looked around, suddenly drew his sword in his hand, and shouted: "The Son of Heaven is weak, not enough to rule the world." Today, I have a text to read to all your ministers. Li Ru, read it. ”
All the ministers also knew what this was, and they were all like old monks who settled down and didn't make the slightest sound.
Li Ru unfolded the silk book and read: "Emperor Xiaoling, abandon his subjects and become immortal; The emperor inherits the heir, looking at the sea. Now the talent is frivolous, the majesty is not scrupulous, and the mourning is slow and lazy; The Queen Mother taught no mother, the government was chaotic, and the Empress Dowager Yongle collapsed, and everyone was suspicious. The way of the three outlines, the discipline of the five constants, is there no deficiency? Chen Liuwang Xie, holy virtue in the heart, the rules are solemn; mourning and mourning, words are not evil; Self-cultivation reputation, the world has heard of, it is advisable to inherit the great cause and serve the world. It is hereby abolished that the present is the king of Hongnong, and the queen mother returns to power, please serve King Chen Liu as the emperor, and should be obedient to the people, in order to comfort the hopes of the subjects of the world. ”
After Li Ru finished reading, Dong Zhuo said: "Left and right warriors, please go down to the palace of King Hongnong!" ”
The two samurai rushed up like wolves, grabbed Liu Bian's arms one left and one right, Liu Bian cried and couldn't comply, and was directly carried down by the two warriors and pressed down at the bottom of the steps.
Taifu Yuan Kui stepped forward and untied the emperor's scarf on Liu Bian's body and handed it to Dong Zhuo, and the ministers all scolded secretly.
Dong Zhuo said to the Empress Dowager He again: "Isn't the Empress Dowager still reluctant to give up this son?" ”
Empress Dowager He burst into tears and did not dare to respond.
Dong Zhuo shouted: "The He family persecuted the Empress Dowager Yongle, causing the Empress Dowager Yongle to die of worry, which violated the woman's way and ordered her to move to Yong'an Palace. Come on, why go to serve. The left and right warriors directly stripped the Empress Dowager He's brocade clothes and removed the Empress Dowager's special jewelry.
He only wore a thin shirt and was pushed down the stairs by the samurai, Liu Bian and He hugged and cried, and the ministers also secretly wept, but Dong Zhuo was complacent.
At this time, Shang Shu Ding Guan couldn't help it, and shouted angrily: "Dong Zhuo, a chaotic minister and thief, dare to deceive the sky, I want to splash it with blood on my neck!" As he spoke, he threw the elephant Jane in his hand at Dong Zhuo.
Jiang Sheng's eyes were quick, and he grabbed Xiang Jian in his hand, Ding Guan was even more angry, pointed at Jiang Sheng and shouted: "Rebel and thief, you must not die well!" ”
Dong Zhuo shouted: "Where is the samurai, take down this madman, withdraw and cut it!" ”
The warriors in the palace hurriedly came over and dragged Ding Guan out, Ding Guan scolded endlessly, and soon lost his voice, at this time the warrior threw Ding Guan's head in the temple gate, and the ministers were all frightened.
Dong Zhuo said loudly: "Please invite King Chen to enter the palace!" ”
Cai Yong, Liu Yu, Yang Biao and others surrounded Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, into the palace, Dong Zhuo helped Liu Xie to sit on the throne, and then knelt on the ground, and bowed to the throne, Liu Xie ascended the throne, called the Emperor of Filial Piety, that is, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, for the convenience of reading, the later text of the book is called the Emperor.
Seeing that Dong Zhuo's general situation had been decided, the ministers had no choice but to kneel down, and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”
Liu Xie raised his hand according to the etiquette he had learned in advance: "Everyone, love Qing's body!" ”
"Emperor Xie!" The shouts in unison continued to echo in the palace.
Yang Biao, the doctor in the waiting, preached: "The new emperor ascends the throne, changes the Yuan Chuping, and amnesties the world!" ”
He and Liu Bian knelt at the foot of the steps, and were not taken away by the samurai until the end of Liu Xie's enthronement ceremony, Dong Zhuo ordered the samurai to take He, Liu Bian, and Liu Bian's imperial concubine Tang to live in Yong'an Palace, and then locked the palace gate, strictly prohibiting anyone from the courtiers from entering.
A few days later, Emperor Xian issued an edict to worship Taiwei Liu Yu as the Great Sima and seal the title of Marquis of Xiangben; worship Dong Zhuo as a lieutenant, lead the military general, add a festival, an axe, a tiger, and a marquis; worship Dong Min as the general of the left and the marquis of Hu; worship Jiang Sheng as the right general, Feng Yihou; added Lu Bu as the Marquis of Duting, and Dong Zhuo's subordinates were also rewarded.
In order to stabilize his strength, Li Ru gave advice to Dong Zhuo and promoted the Qingliu Party members to calm the world.
Under the control of Dong Zhuo, Emperor Xian successively issued edicts, worshiping Yang Biao as Sikong, Huang Wan as Situ, and Wang Yun as the servant, restoring the titles of Chen Fan, Dou Wu and their party members, and promoting their children and grandchildren.
Originally, the Qingliu Party members complained about Dong Zhuo's abolition, and seeing that Dong Zhuo did not only use his own people, the Qingliu Party members were suppressed by the eunuch party and could not be appointed, at this time Dong Zhuo gave them a chance, so the anti-Dong words and deeds of the Qingliu Party disappeared.
After He Jin was killed, the eunuchs of the yamen of the Lang Department in the palace were eradicated by Yuan Shao and the army, in order to fill the vacancy of the subordinate officials, Dong Zhuojiao Zhao restored the performance of the Lang officials, and since then the palace offices have restored the rules of the scholar in charge rather than the eunuch in charge.
It is said that the He family, Liu Bian and Tang Concubine lived in Yong'an Palace, and Dong Zhuo gradually cut off their supply, and life became more and more difficult, but Dong Zhuo was still not at ease, so he sent Li Ru to get rid of them.
Li Ru brought the poisoned wine into the house and said: "The emperor thinks of the deep brotherhood, and specially gives wine to King Hongnong, and invites King Hongnong to drink it." ”
He said: "Since the emperor gave wine, please drink it first." ”
Li Ru threw down a short knife and a seven-foot white silk, and shouted: "If you don't drink, you will give these two things, you choose!" ”
Concubine Tang cried: "The concubine is willing to drink this wine on behalf of the emperor, and I hope that the lord will spare the lives of the queen mother's mother and son." ”
"The slap! Vainly calling King Hongnong the emperor, what is your identity? Is it right to drink on behalf of the king? Li Ru shouted, and said to He Shi: "Do you drink first or King Hongnong drink first?" ”
He scolded: "Dong thief forced my mother and son, the emperor does not bless it!" Thou shalt help the wicked, and thou shalt destroy the clan! Li Ru was furious, grabbed He's arm with both hands, and fell directly from the upstairs, He's neck was broken, and he died on the spot.
Then Li Ru ordered the warrior to hold down Liu Bian, and personally poured the poisonous wine into Liu Bian's mouth, and the time was not long, Liu Bian's seven holes were bleeding, and he was already exhausted.
Concubine Tang cried and howled, sad inexplicably, Li Ru said: "Left and right, give her white silk and send her back to the west." ”
The samurai tied Bai Aya to the beam, and then picked up Concubine Tang to hang her, but he heard a loud shout: "Stop!" ”
Li Ru looked for a sound, only to see Jiang Sheng leading dozens of Xuanjia warriors to rush in.
Jiang Sheng saw that He's body was downstairs, and hurriedly ran upstairs, but saw that it was too late, Liu Wei had already died, and the Xuanjia warrior hurriedly rushed over to save Concubine Tang.
Li Ru said: "General Jiang, why are you doing this?" ”
"Dong Gong has an order to leave He and Liu Bian's lives, demoted to concubines, and will never be allowed to enter Beijing within 100 miles."
"The order that Dong Gong gave me was to get rid of the two, why did General Jiang falsely spread Dong Gong's meaning?"
"This is Dong Gong's handwriting, take a look." Jiang Sheng threw Dong Zhuo's warrant to Li Ru. (To be continued.) )
