After taking control of the two palaces, Liu Zhang went straight to the northern army and returned to Zhou Bo. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info heard that Lu Chan was dead, Zhou Bo was overjoyed, "I'm only worried about Lu Chan." Now that Lu Chan is dead, the world is decided" immediately ordered the troops to search for the entire Lu clan, and kill all the old and young! On the 11th, Lu Lu, the king of Zhao, Lu Tong, the king of Yan, and Lu Xiao, the marquis of Linguang, were all killed; Zhang Yan, the king of Lu, was deposed. On the 12th, the concubine was dismissed and returned to the prime minister. On the 18th, Liu Ying's son, Liu Taixi, the king of Jichuan, became the king of Liang (question: were these orders given by the Later Young Emperor Liu Hong?). Or Chen Ping and Zhou Bo, they are once again overbearing)

The most unacceptable 'edict' is: they actually sent Liu Zhang Pegasus to Xingyang to tell Liu Xiang and the baby: Zhulu has been removed, the alarm bell of Chang'an has stopped, please ask the king of Qi to call off the army and return to the country... When Liu Xiang heard the news, he was stunned all of a sudden. It's not fun! From Linzi to Xingyang, can I only walk half of the emperor's road? No! My destination is Chang'an!

And Guan Ying also knew that Liu Xiang would not give up in vain and return to China obediently. He decided to make an example of the monkeys. So he sent a messenger to summon Wei Bo, who was good at killing Qi Xiang and Zhaoping, and instigating Liu Xiang to raise troops, and questioned him face to face. Wei Bo faced Guan Bao and replied tremblingly, "It's like someone has a fire, how can I have time to tell my parents and not go to put out the fire first" Seeing Wei Bo as timid as a mouse in front of him, Guan Ying smiled and said, "I said Wei Bo is so brave, it turns out that he is just a mediocre person." What can be done", so Guan Ying sternly warned Wei Bo, let him get acquainted, and persuaded Liu Xiang, the king of Qi, to withdraw his troops and return to China as soon as possible. After Wei Bo agreed, Guan Ying released him and returned to Chang'an with his troops.

At this time, the gang of bigwigs of the Han Dynasty immediately convened an emergency meeting after destroying the Lu clan. The participants included Chen Ping, Zhou Bo and others, and an important person: Liu Ze, the king of Langya, the chief of all Liu. Liu Ze must be present, otherwise how could he get out of the evil breath that Liu Xiang detained in Linzi?

There was only one theme for the meeting: who would be the best successor to the next emperor of the Han Dynasty?

The Han Dynasty obviously had emperors, and they were still discussing the establishment of a new emperor. It's nothing short of a conspiracy! In fact, even Sima Qian thought they were engaging in a conspiracy. However, Chen Ping and Zhou Bo all agreed that this conspiracy was a last resort. Because the young emperor Liu Hong was basically helped by Lu Pheasant to come to power, since they denied Lu Pheasant, they must deny Liu Hong by the root!

Not only did they deny Liu Hong, but even his half-brothers Liu Tai, King of Liang, Liu Wu, King of Huaiyang, and Liu Chao, King of Hengshan, all denied it! Based on this premise, they unanimously declared to the outside world: Liu Hong's brothers were not born to Liu Ying, they were all killed by Lu Pheasant's mother and sent to the palace to be raised by Empress Zhang Yan...

But in fact: if these little bunnies stay in the world, once they grow up one day, they will definitely make these old ministers die well! So they must be eradicated! And among Liu Bang's orthodox dragon sons and grandsons, find the right person to fill the position of emperor that is about to be vacated...

So: this is a real conspiracy! Regarding whether the little emperor Liu Hong and other brothers were born to Emperor Liu Ying of the Han Dynasty? Mr. Bai Yang has already made relevant comments, believing that Chen Ping, Zhou Bo and others slandered Liu Hong and others that they were not born by Liu Ying, but in fact they were the excuse and need to seize power!

First of all, the gang of bigwigs in the Han Dynasty just said publicly: Lu Pheasant is a murderer mother and a son of people, why didn't he say that Lu Pheasant killed his father? Could it be that if you take the son of man, you can spare your father alone? Secondly, what is even more puzzling is that the Lu family has excellent reproductive ability and a thriving population, and it should be said that there is no shortage of population. Based on this premise, it stands to reason that even if Lu Pheasant wants to take the son of man, it is enough to take one or two, why do you win seven in a row at once? Doesn't she know that the more she takes, the easier it is to leak the news? Besides, if you take it, you have to raise it, and if you raise it, you have to be crowned king; Then the throne of the Lu clan will be even less. Looking at it this way, why should Lu Pheasant do this kind of business that has no harm and no benefit?

Here, I very much agree with Mr. Bai Yang. Chen Ping and Zhou Bo just want to cut the grass and eradicate the roots and prevent problems before they happen.

In fact, the fate of Liu Hong's little brothers is not the key. The key question is who will take over? Who will be the Supreme Son of Heaven in the future? This is both a stimulating question and a troubling one. At this conspiracy meeting, everyone had different opinions and could not be unanimous.

After the three kings of the Lü family were dead, Liu Ying's three kings and Zhang Yan, the king of Lu, were deposed, there were only six kings left in the Han Dynasty: Liu Ze, the king of Langya, and Liu Jiao, the king of Chu, were Liu Bang's younger brothers, who were very old and excluded; Liu Bi, the king of Wu, is Liu Bang's nephew, and his blood relationship is far away, so he is excluded; Then it means that there are only three people left to choose from: Liu Xiang, the king of Qi, Liu Heng, the acting king, and Liu Chang, the king of Huainan.

The opinions of the patriarchs are also divided into two factions: one is selected from Liu Banglongzi (Liu Heng, Liu Chang); One faction was selected from Liu Bang's dragon grandson (Liu Xiang). Of course, the latter faction is more vocal and opposed.

Some people say that Liu Xiang is the eldest grandson of Liu Bang, with pure blood, and he made great contributions in the battle of Xulu. So it makes sense to inherit the throne. But this statement was immediately strongly opposed by some people, and the one who jumped up and shouted the most was Liu Ze, the evil king of Lang. Liu Ze's reason for objecting was, "How can you let Liu Xiang be the emperor?" Don't you know that Liu Xiang has a hateful uncle? If Liu Xiang is allowed to be the emperor, there will be a new Lu group in the Han Dynasty, which must not be."

Liu Ze kept saying that he would enter the customs to help Liu Xiang become the emperor, but it turned out that he was here to dismantle the stage! But didn't you Liu Xiang also send someone to say that I Liu Ze wanted me Liu Ze to go to Linzi to find you and join you to become the emperor? But the result? Almost gave me my life! Okay, now it's called one report for another. You do the first year of junior high school and I do the fifteenth, everyone is even!

Of course, if it weren't for Liu Ze's opposition, Liu Xiang couldn't be the emperor. What's even worse is that Liu Ze's words are not malicious and hurtful. In fact, Sijun is indeed not a good type. There are relatives like this, and the bigwigs of the Han Dynasty have just experienced the pain of the Lu family, so of course they are not happy to see it. As a result, Liu Ze's opposition became everyone's opposition. And Liu Xiang's dream of being the emperor was ruthlessly shattered...

After excluding Liu Xiang, Liu Heng, the acting king, and Liu Chang, the king of Huainan. If you choose from these two sons of Liu Bang, who should you choose? At this time, the rumors of "the son of heaven who will be born" made up by Liu Heng's mother Bo Ji began to play a huge role...

First of all, let's introduce the upcoming Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, Liu Heng: he is the fourth son of Liu Bang, and his mother is the palace maid of Wei Bao, the king of Western Wei, one of the eighteen princes of Xiang Yu, surnamed Bo. Of Liu Bang's eight sons, Liu Heng is probably the least noticeable, which has to do with his mother. After Liu Heng was born, Bo Ji was snubbed by Liu Bang, and her status has always been "Ji", but she was not promoted to "Mrs.", so Liu Heng has been careful since he was a child, never causing trouble, and left a good impression on everyone. Liu Heng was brought up by Bo Ji, and Bo Ji's blood and tears were condensed on him, reflecting Bo Ji's figure. He had all the good qualities that Bo Ji had accumulated. That is, frugality, gentleness, tenacity, contentment... When Liu Heng was seven years old, the ministers jointly promoted him as the acting king. Although his status was not as prominent as that of other princes, this happened to help Emperor Wen escape the persecution of Empress Lu, fortunately survived, and was lucky to ascend the throne at the age of 23...

Bo Ji once misled Wei Bao, Liu Bang, and now the veterans of the Han Dynasty: "Not long ago, I met the world's famous scholar Xu Cheng. After looking at my face, he said that I am a noble face, and I can give birth to a son of heaven in the future" I think: Bo Ji's words should be Bo Ji's own words after the death of the Lu family. There are three reasons: 1 Wei Bao did not stand on his own after opposing Liu Bang, but surrendered to Xiang Yu. Is this the desire to be the Son of Heaven? 2 If there is really such a rumor, with the ruthlessness of Empress Lu, he can destroy Qi Ji and Liu Ruyi's mother and son, how can he tolerate Bo Ji and Liu Heng's mother and son? 3 After the death of the Lu family, the ministers elected the son of heaven surnamed Liu. Acting King Liu Heng and Huainan King Liu Chang are both expected to compete for the throne. The reason why everyone finally chose Liu Heng as Emperor Wen of Han was that the queen mother of Huainan was strong. But Liu Chang's mother is just a beauty in the palace of Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao, and has already committed suicide. Where does the saying of 'mother strong' come from? I'm afraid that Bo Ji made up this rumor at this time and helped her and her son the most, right?

At this conspiracy meeting, some ministers still proposed to elect Liu Chang, the king of Huainan, as the next emperor of the Han Dynasty. But this opinion was immediately dismissed. The reasons for opposing and opposing Liu Xiang are surprisingly consistent: Liu Chang is younger than Liu Heng, his mother's family is evil, and he is another Lu family (but Liu Chang's mother has long since died, and his uncle Zhou Yanghou Zhao Jian has only left a name in history, and he has never done anything at all.) On the contrary, I would like to say: Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty's uncle, Marquis Bo Zhao, later history proves that this is not a fuel-efficient lamp either)

Of course, the opposing ministers also put forward a more fatal reason: Liu Chang was raised by Lu Pheasant because of his mother's early death, which is really a dangerous seedling!

This is really a snake bite, ten years afraid of grass rope. Where is this election of the emperor? It's like choosing the emperor's mother's family! Whoever has a strong mother's family, the higher the probability of the Han Dynasty ministers being bullied in the future! Conversely, whoever has a weak mother's family will have a lower risk of being bullied in the future...

So, a minister stood up and said, "Among the living sons of Emperor Gao, Liu Heng, the acting king, is the eldest, benevolent, filial and generous; The Empress Dowager Bo was frugal and kind, and she was cautious. If you choose the emperor, you should be able to stand up, not to mention that the acting king is known in the world for his benevolence and filial piety." Yes, to choose the emperor, you must not only choose someone who cannot be bullied by him and his mother's family, but also know how to be generous to others. The emperor is also like his own pet, and docile pets are still more popular...

So, with the nods and approval of Chen Ping and Zhou Bo, the conspiracy meeting passed unanimously on the spot: jointly elect Liu Heng as the new son of heaven! The central court began to send envoys to Jinyang, the capital of Daidu, to invite Liu Heng to Chang'an to inherit the throne.
