infoIn January of the 5th year of Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty (BC190), Empress Lu once again requisitioned 145,000 men and women within a radius of 600 miles from Chang'an City, which was temporarily completed 30 days later.

In summer, there is a severe drought in the world, the water volume of rivers is greatly reduced, and all mountain streams and streams are dried up.

On August 17, Xiangguo Cao Shen died.

In September, Chang'an City was finally completed.

Give every household in the world a first-class title.

In October of the 6th year of Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty (BC190), Empress Lü appointed Wang Ling as the right prime minister, Chen Ping as the left prime minister (right on the top left), and Zhou Bo as the chief lieutenant in accordance with Liu Bang's last words.

In October, Liu Fei, the king of Qi, died and was succeeded by his eldest son, Liu Xiang.

Empress Lu issued an edict: If a folk woman is 15-30 years old and has not yet married, she will pay five times the amount of the tax.

Empress Lu issued another edict: The people can sell their lords from now on.

In June of the 6th year of Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty (BC189), Fan Xu died.

In this year, Empress Lu ordered the opening of the West Market in Chang'an.

At the same time, Aocang was expanded.

In the winter of the 7th year of Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty (BC189), Empress Lü recruited the world's infantry, chariots and cavalry to Xingyang to garrison, led by Guan Ying.

In the 7th year of Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty (188 BC), an ominous omen reappeared in the sky: January 1, a solar eclipse.

May 29, total solar eclipse.

On August 12, 24-year-old Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty, Liu Ying, died in Weiyang Palace.

For the misanthropy, death should be the best relief.

Now, Liu Ying can finally say goodbye to her depressed life and go all the way... The Han court wanted to hold a funeral for the emperor, and in the hall where Liu Ying's coffin was placed, the ministers went to kneel and bow, and they were all sad and weeping.

But some people were surprised to find that Empress Dowager Lu cried in front of everyone for a long time, but she didn't shed a single tear.

This small problem is a big problem in the eyes of Zhang Bijiang, the son of Zhang Liang, who is only 15 years old.

He immediately reported this discovery to Chen Ping, the prime minister of Zuo, "The emperor is the only son of the queen mother, but the queen mother cried without any sadness. Why do you say that?"

Chen Ping was suddenly stopped by Xiaoqiang, who was a big ghost, "Do you know the reason?"

Xiaoqiang seriously criticized Chen Pingdao: "You are really smart, you have been confused for a while, and you don't even know that a catastrophe is coming!" The reason why the Queen Mother didn't cry was because Emperor Hui had no heir behind her, and she was afraid that you, the founding fathers, would set up a new monarch and take away her world."

Chen Ping woke up like a dream, and cold sweat flowed.

Oh, yes!

When Gaozu died, the Queen Mother had the heart to kill all the founding fathers of the Han Dynasty; Now that Emperor Hui has died, is it hard to guarantee that she won't come again?

If he was really preempted by Empress Lu, then his group of veterans who were still alive would probably have to become the martyrdom of Emperor Liu Ying of the Han Dynasty!

However, unlike Chen Ping's panicked expression, Xiaoqiang was confident.

There is no trick, why don't you smash my father's signboard of 'seeking sainthood' in my hand, "Don't be afraid, it's still too late to remedy." As long as you ask Lu Tai and Lu Chan to be generals, you can control the northern and southern armies; Then promote the Lu family as officials and give them a place in the central government. Only in this way can the Queen Mother be at ease, and the king can be safe."

Lu Tai and Lu Chan are the two sons of Lu Ze, the eldest brother of Lu Pheasant.

And the Northern and Southern Army was the Central Praetorian Guard.

The Southern Army is under the command of the guards, stationed under the walls of the two palaces of Weiyang and Changle, and is responsible for guarding the two palaces.

Chang'an City, which was outside the palace area, was guarded by the Northern Army under the command of the lieutenant.

The southern army was about 10,000 or 20,000 people, and the northern army had tens of thousands, surpassing the southern army in strength and becoming an important force to protect and stabilize the order of the capital.

According to the regulations, the northern and southern armies were led by both lieutenants.

At this time, letting the Lu brothers control the military power of the Northern and Southern Armies and the military power of the most elite Central Praetorian Guard in the whole world is undoubtedly a good medicine to dispel the doubts of the Empress Dowager Lu.

If these two forces fall into the hands of others, Lu Pheasant's heart is clenched all the time, how can he still cry tears?

Tall!

He is worthy of being the son of a saint.

Chen Ping quickly entered the palace that night and proposed to the Queen Mother that Bai Lu Tai and Lu Chan brothers be the supreme commanders of the Northern and Southern Army.

As expected, as soon as Chen Ping's words came out, Lu Pheasant also knew how to perform next.

The next day, Empress Dowager Lu cried in front of Liu Ying's coffin, and tears fell into tears.

On September 5, Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty buried Anling, 15 kilometers northwest of Chang'an City, and granted amnesty to the world.

On this day, Empress Dowager Lu traveled with the funeral, and there was another burst of crying.

I saw the tears on her face like the Yellow River flooding, and everyone in the world was silently moved when they heard that the Queen Mother was so sad about the loss of her son.

Then came the major event of electing a new emperor.

Lu Pheasant has also been prepared for this.

She had previously announced several times that Empress Zhang Yan was pregnant with a dragon seed and was ready to give birth.

And once Liu Ying gave birth to a beautiful woman in the harem, she would snatch the child and kill her mother.

In this way, the virgin queen Zhang Yan, who is not yet 20 years old this year, has only been in the palace for less than four years, and she already has seven sons.

I don't know how the Queen Mother explained this to the outside world?

Empress Dowager Lu chose a person named Liu Gong among the seven children and made him the former young emperor.

At the same time, it was announced: Because my grandson is young, I will come to the court to weigh the system... The historians omitted the book because the origins of the former young emperor Liu Gong and the later young emperor Liu Hong were unknown.

The next 8 years are only dated to the age of Lu Hou.

In the winter of the first year of the Han Dynasty (BC188), the Empress Dowager summoned the right prime minister Wang Ling, the left prime minister Chen Ping, and the imperial lieutenant Zhou Bo to a meeting.

The central issue is that the Queen Mother wants to make the children of the Lu family king.

As soon as Lu Pheasant's voice fell, Wang Ling, the right prime minister at the head of the hundred officials, immediately objected, "Gaozu swore with the ministers to kill the white horse before his death: If it is not for the surname Liu who is crowned king, the people of the world should fight together." According to this covenant, the children of the Lu clan do not meet the requirements for the title of king."

Empress Dowager Lu's face was black, and the murderous machine suddenly started.

Holding back his anger, he asked Chen Ping and Zhou Bo, "What are your opinions?"

Zhou and Chen glanced at each other and replied in unison, "Emperor Gao pacified the world and crowned the children of the Liu family as kings." Now that the Queen Mother is in the dynasty and is crowned as the king, why not?"

When Empress Dowager Lu heard this, she immediately turned her anger into joy, waved her hand, and shouted, "I know what to do." Retreat from the Dynasty"

After Lu Pheasant finished speaking, he left, Wang Ling was stupid.

thought that Chen Ping and Zhou Bo would stand on the same front as him.

I didn't expect these two chameleons to change their faces faster than the sky!

After the dismissal of the court, Wang Ling angrily came to Chen Ping and Zhou Bo to theorize, "The original White Horse Alliance, aren't you at the scene?" Now that Gaozu has only been dead for a few years, the queen mother is in power, you are so flattering, may I ask what face you will have in the future to go down to the earth to see the first emperor"

Is it a big deal for the dead or a big deal for the living?

In officialdom, people are always involuntarily.

As the saying goes, once a son of heaven and a courtier, now that Lu Pheasant is in power, those who flaunt moral justice will only be reduced to prisoners; Flattery, but can save life.

Stay in the green mountains, are you afraid that there will be no firewood?

Of course, this truth is not understood by an upright person like Wang Ling.

Chen Ping thought so in his heart, and said calmly to Wang Ling, "Let me tell you this: I am not as good as you in the face of the court fight; But in the future, if you protect the society and stabilize the Liu family, you will be inferior to me."

Political struggle is really a broad and profound technical work!

Wang Ling was speechless in the face of Chen Ping's rebuttal.

He suddenly thought: If you say it and splash the water, you have offended the Queen Mother, and this right prime minister is estimated to be the end.

Sure enough, on November 29, Empress Dowager Lu issued an edict: promote Wang Ling to be the prince.

In terms of position, Taifu is actually higher than the prime minister, but it is an idle position for retirement and retirement, and he has no power at all.

Lu Pheasant's move is really a bright rise and a dark fall.

Wang Ling was simply stubborn to the end, saying that he was sick and resigned, and even the Taifu didn't want to be a master anymore.

This move was in Lu Pheasant's arms, and he immediately approved: An Guohou, you will go back to your own feudal country to retire.

After Wang Ling returned to the feudal country, he closed his door all day and died peacefully at home seven years later.

After sending Wang Ling, Lü Pheasant quickly rearranged the personnel: the right prime minister Chen Ping, the left prime minister tried to eat him, the Taiwei Zhou Bo, and Zhao Yao dismissed and appointed Ren Ao as the imperial historian.

When Liu Bang lived in seclusion in Mangdang Mountain before the rebellion, Lu Pheasant was arrested and imprisoned, and was molested by prison guards.

Ren Ao, who was a prison official in Pei County at the time, shot and beat the molester to the point where he was covered in injuries.

Lu Pheasant is very grateful to him, so it is natural for Ren Ao to replace Zhao Yao.

Among these people, the biggest benefit is, of course, Lu Pheasant's old friend.

The judge is no longer in charge of government affairs, but focuses on supervising the palace, just like Lang Zhongling.

Zhao Gao's shadow loomed on his body.

Not to mention the hundreds of officials in the DPRK, that is, Chen Ping, the right prime minister with an official position above him, many things have to be asked for instructions from him and he can only pass.

At this point, the three princes of the Han Dynasty are all their own people, and Lu Pheasant is invincible in the world.

Her time is coming!

Lü Pheasant first posthumously crowned his deceased father Lü Gong as King Xuan, and his eldest brother Lü Ze as King Mourning Wu, as the precursor of Lü's crown... In January of the first year of the Han Dynasty (BC187), Empress Lü issued an edict: abolish the crime of destroying the three tribes and the evil word decree set by the Qin period.

In April, in order to prevent people from being convinced, Lü Pheasant will be crowned with the Lu clan and the Liu clan and other meritorious heroes at the same time.

First of all, on the 3rd, Nangong Hou Zhang Mai was sealed; On the 22nd, Wuhou Yan, Pingding Hou Shou, Bocheng Hou Feng Wuxue, and Pei Hou Lu Chong were sealed; On the 27th, he sealed Lu Ping, Marquis of Fuliu; On the 28th, the five sons of Emperor Liu Ying of the Han Hui Dynasty were all sealed in one go: Liu Qiang, King of Huaiyang, Liu Budo, King of Hengshan, Liu Shan, Marquis of Xiangcheng, Liu Chao, Marquis of Huguan, and Liu Wu, Marquis of Huguan.

Let Zhang Shi reveal this news to the ministers.

The ministers comprehended and jointly wrote to mourn the two sons of King Wu Lu Ze.

So on the same day that Emperor Hui's fifth son, Lu Ze's youngest son, Lu Chan, was named a suburban marquis; The eldest son, Lü Tai, was named the king of Lü, and Jinan County, which originally belonged to the Qi State, was the fief of Lü.

In April, Princess Lu Yuan, the beloved daughter of Empress Dowager Lu, died.

The queen mother also named Zhang Yan, the son of the princess and her grandson, as the king of Lu.

Lü Pheasant's second brother Lü Shizhi has also died, and Lü Ze, who attacked the feudal and became a marquis, was guilty of being deposed.

In May, the Empress Dowager named Lü Shizhi's youngest son Lü Lu as the Marquis of Huling.

The Lu clan is like a spring breeze overnight, and a hundred flowers are blooming.

From the central to the local, from the harem to the backyards of the princes, the new revolutionary forces of the Lu clan were everywhere.

Revolutions that do not violently seize power can only be eradicated by violence.

The storm is rapidly brewing... In November of the second year of Henkel (BC187), Lü Tai, who had only been the king of Lü for more than half a year, died and was succeeded by his son Lü Jia.

On May 9, the 2nd year of the Han Dynasty (BC186), Liu Yingke, the son of Liu Jiao, the king of Chu, was named the Marquis of Shangpi and Liu Zhang, the son of Liu Fei, the former king of Qi, as the Marquis of Zhu Xu, and summoned the two to the palace guard.

And in order to control these descendants surnamed Liu, Lu Pheasant also thought of a way: everyone sent a woman from the Lu family to be their wife.

The Liu family is rich in dragon sons and dragon grandchildren, and the Lu family is rich in phoenix daughters.

Lu Pheasant took advantage of his power to force the two families to buy and sell through administrative orders, forcing the two families to communicate with each other.

Liu Zhang was assigned to the grandnephew of Empress Lu and the daughter of Lu Lu.

And Liu Bang's sons Zhao Wang Liu You, Liang Wang Liu Hui, acting Wang Liu Heng and others also shared this "welfare" of the Lu family without exception

In July, Liu Budo, who had been the king of Hengshan for more than a year, died.

On the 27th, Liu Shan, Marquis of Xiangcheng, entered the king of Hengshan and changed his name to Liu Yi.

In this year, the last of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty, Zhang Liang, a saint, died.

In the third year of Henkel (BC185), natural disasters continued: in summer, the Yangtze River and the Han River flooded one after another, affecting more than 4,000 families; In autumn, there is a terrible sight in the sky: during the day, you see the stars; Immediately afterwards, Yishui and Luoshui flooded, affecting more than 1,600 families.

Rushui then overflowed, affecting more than 800 homes.

On February 7, the 4th year of Han Gao (BC184), Lü Pheasant named Liu Tai, the seventh son of Emperor Hui of Han, as the Marquis of Changping.

On April 21, Lü Pheasant sealed five Lü clans as marquis in one go: his sister Lü Xiao was Linguang Marquis, Zupping Marquis Lü Sheng, Yu Marquis Lü It, Teng Marquis Lü Gengshi, and Lü Chenghou Lü Chen.

Of course, in order to block the tongue, on the same day, Lu Pheasant also sealed some other people: Zhongyi Hou Zhu Tong, Leping Hou Wei Wuxue, Shandu Hou Wang Tiankai, Songzi Hou Xu Li, Chengtao Hou Zhou Xin, Liling Hou Yue.
