Jian Shuo, who returned to the palace, did not dare to act rashly, but the ten permanent servants turned against the water at this time, Zhang let them already see that Jian Shuo was difficult to achieve, so they showed goodwill to Queen He, and expressed their allegiance to Queen He.

When Emperor Ling, the ten permanent servants had a good friendship with Queen He, this time Jian Shuo wanted to help Liu Xie ascend to the throne, and the ten permanent servants also agreed with Jian Shuo's worries, after all, they were all eunuchs, but for the sake of prudence, the ten permanent servants did not obviously support Jian Shuo, Queen He was in the dark, and at this time, the ten permanent servants came to express their positions, and Queen He decided to help the ten permanent servants maintain their previous privileges.

With the support of Empress He, the ten permanent servants ignored Jian Shuo, and said to the civil and military ministers who entered the palace to mourn that the country could not be without a king for a day, and hoped that everyone would discuss the issue of the new monarch ascending the throne.

He Jin's people have already visited these civil and military officials, Yuan Shao's more than 10,000 new troops controlled the capital and the palace all the palace gates, these civil and military officials are not fools, under the leadership of Chen Lin and others, expressed their opinions: Stand tall and not young!

Although He Jin did not enter the palace, the matter of making Liu Wei the king was already under control. Liu Yu hurriedly returned to Youzhou after attending the funeral of Emperor Ling, Gongsun Zhan was restless, and Liu Yu had to go back in a hurry to deal with it.

Sikong Liu Hong is ranked as the third duke, and He Jin is close, under the instruction of He Jin to preside over the new monarch's enthronement ceremony, because He Jin has already made preparations, Sikong Liu Hong announced the decision to establish the long and not the young, no one objected, even the ten permanent servants who have always been against He Jin have no objections.

"According to the ancestral system, the elder does not stand the young, since all the civil and military have agreed, then respectfully ask the prince to identify as the new monarch and invite the new monarch to ascend the throne."

Surrounded by the ten permanent attendants, Liu Bian went to the Jiade Hall, which was the place where the court meeting was held. Empress He also sat down under the dragon chair accompanied by the maid.

All the civil and military forces hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

The guards and low-ranking officials outside the palace also shouted in unison after hearing the voice in the palace, and the palace shouted endlessly, which was regarded as an acknowledgment of the new emperor's accession to the throne.

Jian Shuo was still waiting for the ten permanent servants to come to discuss matters in his own hall, and he heard the shouts of the new monarch in the palace, so he panicked, and this time he was so miserable by the ten permanent servants.

After Zhongwen Wushan shouted long live, under the guidance of Zhang Rang, Liu Wei sat on the dragon chair and shouted in a childish voice: "Zhong Aiqing is flat!" Throne! ”

"Emperor Xie!" After all the civil and military officers got up, they knelt in their respective positions.

"Zhang Rang, let's announce the edict!" Liu Bian proceeded according to the process he had learned before.

"The emperor's edict said: The new emperor ascends the throne, amnesty the world, and changes the Yuan Guangxi; respected his biological mother He as the queen mother, and allowed the court to listen to politics; Uncle He Jin, worship the general, Yuan Kui worship the Taifu, record the Shangshu affairs, and assist the government; Liu Xie, the emperor's younger brother, is the king of Bohai, and he is hereditary and replaces ......"

All this was done according to He Jin's plan, Yuan Kui is Yuan Shao's uncle, He Jin let Yuan Shao serve his life, so he let Yuan Kui serve as the Taifu and participate in the Shangshu affairs, in fact, He Jin has the final say.

Because Emperor Ling has not yet been buried, the enthronement ceremony ended in a solemn atmosphere, and Liu Bian, who ascended the throne, was only fourteen years old, stubborn, and finally managed to end the ceremony, and hurriedly ran to the imperial garden to have fun.

According to historical records, Liu Bian's nickname is the Young Emperor, and this book is called the Young Emperor for the convenience of reading.

Empress Dowager He listened to the government in the court, and it didn't make a difference if the young emperor was not there, so he went to have fun. In order to allow He Jin to take power smoothly, Empress Dowager He sent the imperial doctor to visit the general's mansion. After the "careful treatment" of the imperial doctors, General He returned to the court.

Since He Jin is in power, he naturally desperately promotes his cronies, and Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are still in control of the new army, Feng Fang and Xia Mu are not He Jin's people, He Jin plans to replace these two people, but Cao Cao persuaded that the new army is the army of the guards and must not be moved lightly, so as not to cause internal fighting in the new army.

He Jin said: "Then how should Jiang Sheng pay attention?" ”

Cao Cao said: "Jiang Sheng is a good fighter, and he has Xuanjia cavalry and an elite new army of 15,000 people under his command, which is undesirable. The general only needs to fake the edict to appease, Jiang Sheng will not rebel, and it can also be used by the general. ”

"This person is available?" He Jin will be skeptical.

"General, the emperor has just ascended the throne, and our power is not strong enough. Moreover, Jiang Sheng is strong, if he rebels, the capital will be in danger. Yuan Shao also persuaded.

"Okay, since you all think Jiang Sheng is available, then use him. Chen Lin, the first emperor once gave a marriage to the princess of Wannian, I wonder if I can hold a big wedding ceremony for Jiang Sheng? ”

Chen Lin said: "General, the first emperor has not yet been buried, according to the ancestral system, the princess of Wannian should keep filial piety for three years before she can get married." ”

"Okay, let's talk about it later."

Let's say that Jian Shuo, seeing that the overall situation in the palace has been decided, went to see the Empress Dowager Dong, Chen said that the benefits, the Empress Dowager Dong was not angry with Liu Wei as the king, and Jian Shuo hit it off, and Jian Shuo secretly contacted Jiang Sheng, and pulled Jiang Sheng into the gang with the high-ranking official Houlu to deal with He Jin together.

In terms of the imperial court, Empress Dowager Dong went to see Empress Dowager He as the Empress Dowager, first congratulated Liu Ban on his ascension to the throne against her will, and then hoped to promote some people to the court as officials on the grounds that Emperor Ling was optimistic.

Empress Dowager He has always been obsessed with Empress Dong's practice of protecting Liu Xie, and now she finally seized the opportunity, and without saying a word, she directly refused.

Empress Dong was so angry that her face turned pale, she got carried away, and shouted angrily: "Do you think I'm afraid of He Jin?" As long as I give an order, let Dong Chong wave his army into the palace, and it will be easy to kill He Jin! "This time Dong Zhong was sold.

After saying that, she brushed her sleeves away, gritting her teeth with hatred for the He family in her heart, and after returning to the hall, she summoned her clan brothers Dong Zhong and Jian Shuo to come over and plan to deal with He Jin.

When Emperor Ling was alive, Empress Dowager Dong asked Emperor Ling to promote Dong Zhong to hussar general, with some private guards in his hands, Empress Dowager Dong wanted him to be ready, and Jian Shuo went to contact the eunuchs in the palace, trying to kill He when he entered the palace.

Jian Shuo said to Zhang: "Zhang Chang served to establish a new monarch to ascend the throne, have you forgotten our agreement?" ”

Zhang Rang said: "Yuan Shao's army has surrounded the palace, and there are He Jin's minions everywhere in the palace. As long as we keep our powerful lives, what difference does it make who becomes the emperor? ”

"He Jin has always regarded us as an enemy, and now he is in power, aren't you afraid that he will deal with you? If Liu Xie ascends the throne, we will have the merit of the dragon, we were in charge of the first emperor, and we will cover the sky with one hand in the future. Are you a lost dog or a prince and nobleman? ”

"Now, even if we don't admit defeat, what can we do?"

"Hussar General Dong Chong has 5,000 tigers under his command, and now I have contacted Jiang Sheng to enter Beijing, and with the support of Empress Dowager Dong, are you still afraid that something big will not happen? As long as you find the right opportunity, take advantage of the sudden attack when He enters the court, get rid of him, and then abolish Liu Bian and set up Liu Xie to ascend the throne. ”

"Jiang Sheng is He Jin's person, do you dare to use him?" Zhang Rang was skeptical. (To be continued.) )
