On the second day, with the last rooster crow in the palace in the morning, hundreds of officials hurried to the Taihe Hall from all directions.

According to rumors in the palace, His Majesty the Emperor is very unhappy today! Several high-ranking ministers knew from their own intelligence systems that a person with a very special identity entered the palace last night to meet the saint, and the eunuchs in the palace told Shen Yan.

Therefore, these ministers all silently bowed their heads and walked briskly, only sighing and saying hello when they met their colleagues who got along day and night, and the meaning of this was very clear.

In stark contrast to this, there were a dozen or so people walking a little further in the line. Although these dozen or so people are a little sad on the surface, it can be seen from their fast or slow steps and steady steps that they are all under control.

……

The civil and military officials arrived at the main hall and stood in their respective positions waiting for the most powerful man in this land~ His Majesty the Emperor.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty slowly walked to the dragon chair and sat down with the support of the two palace maids.

Seeing the emperor sit down, the hundred officials knelt on the ground at the same time and shouted: "Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live." ”

Liu Hong looked at the kneeling civil and military officials under the dragon chair, and then looked at his golden palace, thinking of last night's incident, he couldn't help but be furious, and scolded in his heart: "There are people who want to take away the country, I don't know whether they are alive or dead!" ”

Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty didn't bother to suppress his emotions, and said impatiently: "Zhong Aiqing, someone told me last night that someone wanted to shake the country of my Han Dynasty, so I summoned you today. Passed Ma Yuanyi into the hall. ”

Hearing this, the official in charge of the summons at the bottom hurriedly shouted to the entrance of the main hall: "Spread Tang Zhou to enter the hall!" ”

After seven or eight breaths, Ma Yuanyi came to the hundred officials and knelt down facing the emperor, "Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" ”

Liu Hong looked condescendingly at Tang Zhou below and said, "Tang Zhou, repeat what you said last night now, there is no room for error!" ”

After Liu Hong finished speaking, he felt even more irritable in his heart, and said, "Forget it, Zhang Rang, you can come!" ”

Below, Zhang Rang, who was standing behind the prime minister, heard this, stepped out of the ranks, and made a gesture towards Liu Hongshen, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, and then turned to face the civil and military officials behind him, and said slowly.

"Zhang Jiao, a person who is a big deer, has some medical skills, so he used the help of the poor people to vigorously publicize that the sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, the world is auspicious, and the absurd remarks of gathering people's hearts are also the establishment of Taiping Dao, which envelops the hearts of the people in a religious way, and establishes prestige among the poor peasants, with hundreds of thousands of believers. Later, he used the people's will to recruit troops, and the soldiers have reached hundreds of thousands, and now they intend to rebel and shake our country. ”

When Zhang Rang said this, he turned his words, pointed angrily at these officials in front of him with one hand, and angrily reprimanded: "These are extremely hateful, but some people have betrayed His Majesty the Emperor, betrayed my Han Dynasty, and colluded with the Yellow Party, even if they die tens of millions of times, it is not a pity to die!" ”

Liu Hong was also provoked by Zhang Rang's sincere words, and said angrily: "Feng Xu, Xu Feng, Ma Yuanyi, stand up for me!" ”

As soon as the words fell, three of the hundred officials immediately came out of the ranks, kneeling on their knees, their heads buried deep in the eyes of the emperor who did not dare to face the emperor, and their bodies trembled slightly.

Liu Hong saw the three people standing up, and said coldly: "At noon today, the car was split at the Luoyang City Gate to show that the enemy was going to end!" ”

When the three of them heard this, they hurriedly got up and cried: "The emperor is wronged, the little one doesn't know anything at all!" ”

Zhang Rang scolded angrily again: "You still have the face to say that you are wronged, Tang Zhou!" ”

Tang Zhou immediately buckled his head, raised his right hand over his shoulder, and said Lang Lang: "I am Tang Zhou, a disciple of Zhang Jiao, the leader of the Yellow Party, after learning that Zhang Jiao colluded with the imperial court officials and had the intention of raising troops, he hurriedly met with His Majesty the Emperor to inform him of this important matter, and the officials who Zhang Jiao colluded with me include Feng Xu, Xu Feng, and Ma Yuanyi. If the little one is true, if there is any falsehood, the little one will go to eighteen layers of hell! ”

Li Cheng, the previously silent prime minister, stood up at this time and said slowly: "Your Majesty, you need to check again at this time, don't kill the loyal ministers by mistake." ”

Liu Hong waved his hand impatiently, thinking that my concubine was still waiting for me, so he held back his anger: "I have made up my mind, retreat from the dynasty!" At noon, Zhang Aiqing came to my study. ”

After saying this, Emperor Han Ling ignored the crowd below and walked away, leaving behind hundreds of officials who looked at each other. At this time, several guards stepped forward and dragged Feng Xu, Xu Feng, and Ma Yuanyi out of the main hall. And Tang Zhou was asked by Zhang Rang last night, and then followed Zhang Rang out of the palace.

The civil and military officials who had not yet left were still thinking about the shocking news of this early dynasty, and smelled a trace of conspiracy from it......
