Emperor Huan's accession to the throne
Just when Liang Ji had a headache, the master Li Gu came out again. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn Li Gu's view, why Emperor Liu Zhang of the Han Dynasty died suddenly is not very important. The important thing is that he must be ahead of Liang Ji and choose the new emperor! Last time, he wrote to the Empress Dowager Liang and Liang Ji alone, but it didn't work. This time, he learned well, and pulled a few big names to jointly write a book!
Taiwei Li Gu, Situ Huguang, Sikong Zhao Jie. There are many people and great power, this time the three dukes of the Han Dynasty simply opened the skylight and said bright words, so he said to Liang Ji, "In less than two years, three emperors have collapsed, which is a great misfortune for the country!" We know that both the Empress Dowager and the Great General wanted to find a suitable candidate to succeed the emperor. But we have to tell the general: you must not forget one big thing no matter what"
This is a big thing: since ancient times, every time you nominate a candidate for the emperor, you must ask for the opinions of the ministers!
These words were really fierce, and Liang Ji's eyelids jumped really when he saw it. Li Gu seemed to be about to tell him: The words have been said in front, don't think about it like last time, just you and Empress Dowager Liang will finalize the emperor's candidate!
Liang Ji is really big. But he couldn't help it, it was like someone had a thin rope around his neck, and he had to follow.
In this way, Liang Ji had no choice but to convene a meeting of all the senior officials of the central government: the three dukes, the middle two thousand stones, and the princes all came. There is only one topic: "Who is more suitable to sit on the emperor's seat vacated by Liu Zhang"
Four people immediately stood up and said in unison, "We support Liu Garlic, the king of Qinghe" In addition to the three princes, there is also a heavyweight Jiuqing: Da Honglu Du Qiao!
Liu Garlic's ghost is not gone, and the civil official group is really not small. Liang Ji seemed to be a little overwhelmed. Among the four, Hu Guang and Zhao Jie are not afraid, and the ones that worry Liang Ji the most are Li Gu and Du Qiao, these two people have a common characteristic - their temper is more stubborn than that of a cow, as long as they recognize the reason, they will go to the black!
Du Qiao worked in Yang Zhen's mansion when he was young, and in a sense, he was Yang Zhen's political believer, vowing to fight his evil relatives to the end. Du Qiao and Liang Ji carried it, their eyes didn't blink, and Liang Ji was so angry that he jumped to his feet, but he couldn't do anything at all. Now that these ministers and celebrities who are unreasonable and unwilling to die, want to jointly deal with a cult leader like him, Liang Ji is powerless.
What to do? Just when Liang Ji was helpless, someone helped him from behind, which almost made him fly with joy!
We know that there were four major schools of politics in the Eastern Han Dynasty, namely the royal family, scholars, relatives, and eunuchs. Now the group of scholars led by Li Gu is unprecedentedly united, and together with the royal family, they have made trouble against their relatives, but they have forgotten another sect: the eunuchs who have been hiding in the deep palace for a long time, but their influence is everywhere!
The eunuch boss at this time was Cao Teng, who was once considered to be a member of Liang Shang. Although he has a good relationship with the Liang family, Cao Teng and Liang Ji are not in the same group. However, there is a thread in the darkness that binds them together. The name of this line is Interest!
The situation is like this: Liu Garlic, the king of Qinghe, dislikes Cao Teng very much, and never looks down on the eunuchs, obviously despising them. Liu Garlic doesn't like his relatives and doesn't like eunuchs. In his political philosophy, there were only royalty and scholars. Then if you don't treat us as your own, don't blame us for joining forces to kick you out!
So that night, Cao Teng quietly went to see Liang Ji. said to him: "Liu Garlic, the king of Qinghe, is virtuous and solemn. If he becomes emperor, you will not be able to eat and walk around. If you want to escape this difficulty, there is only one way: support Liu Zhi, the Marquis of Liwu, only he can keep you rich and prosperous for a long time."
Liu Ji, the grandson of Emperor Liu Wei of the Han Dynasty and the son of Liu Kai, the king of Hejian, was originally one of the candidates that Empress Dowager Deng wanted to replace Emperor Liu Hu of Han (the other was Liu Yi, Marquis of Beixiang), but after Deng's death, Liu Yi was driven back to the Hejian Kingdom of his father Liu Kai by Liu Hu. Later, Liu Kai got the permission of Emperor Liu Bao of Han Shun and cut out Liwu County in his own feudal state to make his son a marquis. After Liu Yi's death, his son Liu Zhi inherited the title of Marquis of Liwu. Because Empress Dowager Liang wanted to marry her sister Liang Nuying to Liu Zhi, she recruited him to Luoyang Xiamen Pavilion. However, it happened to encounter the death of Emperor Han Qian, and he could not get married during the national funeral. However, Liu Zhi was in the capital at this time.
It's like a flat boat floating on the vast sea, and suddenly sees a navigation light projected in the distance. Liang Ji met Cao Teng, in this vast night, he will no longer be lost, and will only successfully reach the other side of the successful conspiracy!
The meeting resumed the following day. Yesterday, Liang Ji was attacked by Li Gu and other ministers in several ways, and he was full of anger and had nowhere to vent his anger, so he had to break up the meeting. Today is different, he has Cao Teng's secret help, like a tiger, as soon as he enters the venue, his face is hideous, murderous, and he is determined to win. So as soon as Liang Ji opened his mouth, he made a strong statement, whoever is against me, I will clean up whom!
The ministers were shocked by Liang Ji's anger, and they looked at each other and had nothing to say. After a long time, two chameleons finally stood up and spoke, "The general has the final say, we just listen to your orders"
These two officialdom gangsters are Situ Huguang and Sikong Zhao Jie. Li Gu and Du Qiao looked at it, they were terrible, Liang Ji roared, and the ministers were all one-sided, and the two of them were left. Liang Ji sneered proudly. He looked at Li Gu and then at Du Qiao. He wants to see how long these two officialdom tough guys are going to play with him!
Li Gu and Du Qiao also spoke. They still said that "the new emperor is none other than Liu Garlic, and Liu Garlic should be immediately established" Liang Ji almost didn't breathe fire. I saw him wave his big hand, shout loudly, "Break up", and then angrily brushed his sleeves away...
The meeting dispersed, but Li Gu still did not give up. He immediately wrote a book to Liang Ji. What was written, Liang Ji didn't have the heart to read it, because when he saw that Li Gu was still entangled with him and said that he wanted to stand up to Liu Garlic, Liang Ji wanted to use a knife to cut people!
On the 4th of June, the time has come to decide whether to win or lose! Liang Ji went to see the Empress Dowager Liang again. Just like last time, the brother and sister whispered behind closed doors, and then the big thing was decided by the two of them: the new emperor candidate is not Liu Garlic, but Liu Zhi!
Why choose Liu Zhi? Cao Teng had already made his words clear before, and Liang Ji just relayed other people's words to Empress Dowager Liang. When Liang Yan heard this, she didn't have any opinions, and immediately issued an edict to dismiss Li Gu!
Empress Dowager Liang likes Li Gu very much, but she loves herself and the Liang family even more. If Liu Garlic is established, it should have been established a long time ago, and if it is established again, Liu Garlic will not be grateful. It will only be said that Li Gu and others forced it, and the Liang family gave in. In this way, the Liang family will not have to mix up in the future. The head fell to the ground, and the door was beheaded. Like the Deng family and the Yan family, they can only bid farewell to the Han Dynasty with the demeanor of blood beams... Either Li Gu left, or the Liang family was destroyed, does the Empress Dowager Liang still have a choice?
On the 5th, Situ Huguang was transferred to the post of lieutenant. Sikong Zhao Jie was transferred to Situ and participated in the Shangshu affair with the general Liang Ji. Yuan Tang, the servant, was promoted to Sikong.
On the 7th, Liang Ji held the festival and welcomed Liu Zhi to stay in Nangong with Wang Qing's car. On the same day, he ascended the throne and became Emperor Huan of Han. Because she was only 15 years old and still underage, the Empress Dowager Liang continued to listen to the government.
On August 3, Emperor Liu Zhi of the Han Dynasty issued an edict: Only those who are full of 100 stones, over 10 years old, and have special talents can become officials. The descendants of the corrupt officials shall not be prosecuted. In this way, we can put an end to the evil and hypocrisy, so that the honest and honest officials can rest assured that they will be officials. Zhu Mu, an official of the General's Mansion, also wrote to advise his immediate boss Liang Ji: He should concentrate on serving the public, cut off his selfish desires, seek meritocracy, and denounce evil. For the emperor to set up a master, you should choose a person who is careful and loyal. The position of the doctor should be held by a person who is a master of Confucianism, and now it is not his own. There are also those who are unworthy of their responsibilities among the nine Qings. All of these people should be dismissed, and Chong Hui, Luan Ba and others should be recommended. But Liang Ji didn't listen.
In September, Emperor Liu Zhi of the Han Dynasty issued an edict: posthumously respect his grandfather Liu Kai, the king of Hejian, as the emperor of filial piety, his grandmother Zhao as the queen of filial piety, and his father Liu Yi, the marquis of Liwu, as the emperor of filial piety. Their temples and mausoleums were specially set up to be guarded by orders, and Situ Zhao was ordered to hold festivals, books, and seals, and go to worship with the rites of the prison.
On October 12, Emperor Liu Zhi of the Han Dynasty posthumously honored his biological mother Kuang as a noble person in Boyuan.
At that time, Teng Fu, who had made great contributions to quelling the southeast rebellion, was straightforward and did not hand over power, so he was hated by the eunuchs. This year, he was impeached by Taiwei Hu Guang and dismissed from office and went home.
On January 1, 147, the first year of Jianhe, the solar eclipse. Emperor Liu Zhi of the Han Dynasty issued an edict: ordered the three dukes, Jiuqing, and school captains to speak out. On the 8th, amnesty was granted to the world. Give the clerk a year old. Give each man in the world a second-class title. For the father, the latter, the three elders, filial piety, and Litian each have a third-class title. Widows, widows, loneliness and other socially disadvantaged groups have 5 taels per person. The chaste women were each given three horses. More than 4/10 of the affected areas will be exempted from land rent.
In February, many people in Jingyang and Erzhou starved to death. The imperial court sent officials to provide relief.
On April 11, the Jingshi Luoyang earthquake. Emperor Liu Zhi of the Han Dynasty issued an edict: ordered the general, the public, the secretary, and the lieutenant to each recommend one person who is virtuous and upright, and who is outspoken. The general, the minister, the secretary, and each county recommended one person to filial piety. He also ordered the princes, generals, doctors, confessors, thousand stones, six hundred stones, doctors, councillors, and lang officials to speak out. On the 13th, Liu Zhi issued an edict: All prefectures and counties shall not coerce and expel the chief officials. If the chief official embezzles more than 300,000 yuan and is not exposed, officials such as Assassin Shi and Erqianshi will be guilty of connivance. There are those who fake the ribbon without permission, and they abandon the market with murder. On the 27th, Liu Zhi issued an edict: Except for plotting rebellion and rebellion, all criminals will be commuted by one degree. He also ordered that the sentence of the prisoner be reduced by six months.
In April, Emperor Liu Zhi of the Han Dynasty issued an edict: Liu Dai's brother, Liu Yi, the Marquis of Bo Ting Ting, was appointed as the king of Fuling. Restore the Fuling Kingdom, which has been extinct for nearly 2 years.
In June, Taiwei Hu Guang was dismissed. Guangluxun Du Qiao was promoted to lieutenant. Li Gu is gone, but Liang Ji is still unhappy, because Du Qiao is still there. All the ministers also knew in their hearts: with Li Gu here, they relied on Li Gu; Now that Du Qiao has come up, he has become the boss of the Shidafu group, and everyone wants to not be bullied by Liang Ji and the eunuchs in the court, so they count on him...
In July, Liu Hong, the king of Bohai, died, and his son, Liu Zhang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, was poisoned by Liang Ji. Empress Dowager Liang issued an edict: Liu Kui, the younger brother of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty and the successor to the Marquis of Liwu, was the king of Bohai and succeeded Liu Hong.
In July, Emperor Liu Zhi of the Han Dynasty held a commendation meeting. The meeting was very big, but it didn't have Du Qiao's share! Because of Liu Zhi's commendation conference, the main purpose is to present awards to everyone who has supported him to ascend the throne and take the stage. In the list of winners, Liang Ji ranked first, adding 13,000 households. There is also Liang Budo who was named the Marquis of Yingyang, Liang Meng as the Marquis of Xiping, Liang Yin, the son of Liang Ji, as the Marquis of Xiangyi, Hu Guang as the Marquis of Anle, Zhao Jie as the Marquis of Chuting, and Yuan Tang as the Marquis of Anguo. Liu Guang and others were also made marquis.
It can really be said that I only see the new people laughing, and I don't see the old people crying. Their happiness is based on Li Gu's pain, and it is rooted in Du Qiao's heart! So Du Qiao played a concert, bitterly stated the facts, and told Liu Zhi: When you first come to power, you should pay attention to your image, promote more virtuous people, and not only be close to relatives and eunuchs, which will hurt the hearts of wise men in the world.
The book was sent, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was not even a microwave. Ducho seemed to understand something: the water in the palace was very deep!
On August 18th, Emperor Liu Zhi of the Han Dynasty ushered in a very important day in his life - marriage! The girl Liu Zhi wants to marry is Liang Nuying, the sister of Liang Ji and Empress Dowager Liang.
On the day of Liu Zhi's wedding, an edict was issued: Liang Nuying should be crowned as the queen! But Liang Ji didn't seem to be satisfied, and he sent someone to tell Liu Zhi, "In order to show sincerity, please ask the emperor to come to Liang's house on this day to welcome his relatives"
Since Liu Bang founded the country, it has always been women who automatically send them to the door, which emperor went out to greet his relatives in person? No, absolutely nothing!
I didn't say this, it was Du Qiao who checked the royal archives and said to the people of Liang Ji with certainty, "There is no precedent for the Han Dynasty, and the emperor can't go out of the palace to welcome his relatives."
This is the second time Du Qiao has played tricks with Liang Ji. Will there be a third time? If Du Qiao is asked to answer this question, the answer should be: life is endless, the competition is endless, what is it just three times!
So Liang Ji came to visit Du Qiao again. Nothing to do in the Three Treasures Palace, Liang Ji said to Du Qiao, "I have something I want to ask you" Du Qiao didn't answer, and couldn't help sneering in his heart: Aren't you Liang Ji quite open? There are also times when you ask for someone in person?
I only heard Liang Ji say, "I have a person named Yan Gong, I want you to recommend him as a scholar, how?"
Sure enough, there is nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace! Ducho seriously refused. The reason is very sufficient: this palace was dismissed for corruption, and now you let me be this recommender, are you insulting my character?
Liang Ji didn't say anything and left. It's only been three days, and the relationship between the two has completely broken down!
