Chapter 499: Aiqing is a member of the royal family
In the first month of the fourth year of Emperor Han Xian's first peace, with the assassination of Dong Zhuo, the hundreds of thousands of Liangzhou troops who stayed in Luoyang and the counties of Sili suddenly fell into a leaderless chaos, and this chaos eventually evolved into an unprecedented military disaster, hundreds of thousands of innocent people died directly in the military disaster, hundreds of thousands of houses were burned, and millions of people were directly homeless.

The four eastern counties of Si Li's lieutenant department were almost ransacked by the Liangzhou rebels, and although the 14th Kwantung Coalition Army finally entered Luoyang, they were left with only a Luoyang city that had almost become a ruin, and more than two million displaced and waiting to be fed outside Luoyang City.
The Han government, which had just experienced a catastrophe, was unable to sustain the livelihoods of the more than two million victims and was left to fend for themselves, and for months afterward, thousands of people died of starvation every day, followed by a massive outbreak of plague. In February of the fourth year of the first year of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, the four eastern counties of the entire Sili School Captain Department had already appeared a tragic scene of "white bones exposed in the wilderness and no rooster crowing for thousands of miles".
The once prosperous eastern capital of Luoyang is no longer prosperous, and the residents in the city have plummeted from hundreds of thousands to less than 30,000 at the peak, so that Liu Bei later wanted to find some people to repair the palace, but he couldn't find enough strength, which shows how heavy the blow of this military disaster in the fourth year of Chuping hit the Han Dynasty.
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
Luoyang.
Under the overwhelming attack of Mount Tai of the 14th Kwantung Coalition Army, the more than 20,000 Liangzhou rebels that were ravaging the city were quickly wiped out. After destroying the Liangzhou rebellion, Yuan Shao ordered the Kwantung Army in each town to extinguish the fire in the city, and at the same time hurriedly led the princes of the fourteen towns to rush to the Deyang Palace to meet the driver, at this time Yuan Shao was most concerned about only one thing, is the Son of Heaven still in the palace?
Liu Bei rode his horse and mixed it in, Huo Ran looked around, only to see that the seven-colored banners of the princes from all walks of life were hunting in the air, almost filling the entire street, seeing this scene, Liu Bei's heart suddenly moved, and the corners of his mouth had a trace of an extremely mysterious smile, the opportunity ~~ finally came!
In the neighing of horses, the princes from all walks of life drove to the outside of the forbidden palace, and suddenly saw a peerless military general riding out of the palace gate, and everyone looked at it urgently but it was Lu Bu who showed his might in front of the tiger prison, Lu Bu crossed the horse and crossed the halberd, and behind him Zhang Liao, Cheng Lian, Song Xian and the three state athletes lined up, and the three athletes were like clouds behind them, and thousands of elite soldiers were waiting for them.
The princes of Kwantung hurriedly stopped their horses, and Yuan Shao shouted on horseback: "Lu Bu, how are you doing?" ”
Lu Bu snorted and ignored it, and when Yuan Shao was about to get angry, a passage was flashed in the middle of the military array, and the ministers of the court headed by Wang Yun had already hurried out, standing in front of the palace gate and saying to the princes of the Kwantung region: "There is a decree in the sage, all the adults enter the palace to see the driver, and the accompanying soldiers are exempt from the court." ”
Yuan Shao and other princes hurriedly turned over and dismounted, knelt down in the dust, and responded respectfully: "The ministers are grateful." ”
After shouting long live and thanking the holy grace, Yuan Shao and the others turned over and got up, and each told his henchmen to closely monitor the movements of Lu Bujun, and if there was any trouble, they would immediately wave their troops to attack the forbidden palace.
Coming to the Deyang Palace, Yuan Shao and other princes from all walks of life knelt down three times and bowed nine times again, and shouted three times long live.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty~~"
After the salute, the princes of all walks of life just got up, and a heart-rending cry suddenly sounded in the hall, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty looked at it urgently, and saw a person rushing out from the middle of the princes of the Fourteenth Road, and knelt down on the ground a few steps ahead, and suddenly there was a bang.
"The minister's escort is late, and His Majesty is frightened! The minister's sin deserves ten thousand deaths, and the sin deserves ten thousand deaths~~"
When the princes of the Eighteenth Road looked at it urgently, it was Liu Bei, who had followed Xuzhou Assassin Shi Ba Yi to ask for King Dong Qin, this guy was originally not qualified to face the saint, but he didn't know how to get involved? Liu Bei was already crying tears at this time, looking like he was in pain, and blood came out of his forehead on the danqi.
This situation and this scene are really sad for those who hear it, and tears for those who see it.
Hidden behind the bead curtain to listen to the government, the Empress Dowager He was touched by Liu Bei, and for a while also remembered the death of the first emperor and the misfortune after the new emperor ascended the throne.
Suddenly, there were mourning voices in the Golden Palace, and there was a gloomy mist.
In less than a moment, a eunuch came out from behind the curtain and said: "The queen mother has a decree, please come forward to speak." ”
Liu Bei didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly wiped away the tears on his face with his sleeves, and walked forward on his knees.
Yuan Shao saw that the Queen Mother ignored him, the dignified alliance leader of the Kwantung Army, and actually favored the little Liu Bei, he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, and couldn't help but snort softly from his nostrils, but this muffled snort attracted Wang Yun's attention, Wang Yun was already good at playing with power, and his heart suddenly moved when he saw Yuan Shao's face was angry.
Liu Bei knelt under the golden steps, buried his head deep in the ground, and pouted his ass high, and sang respectfully: "Minister Liu Bei, I respectfully ask Your Majesty and the Queen Mother to bow well." ”
Behind the bead curtain came a pulsed voice: "Aiqing is flat." ”
"Your Majesty, Empress Dowager Xie."
Liu Bei kowtowed again, got up and stood to one side.
Empress Dowager He behind the bead curtain asked again: "Aiqing's surname is Liu, but is she a member of the royal family?" ”
No wonder Empress Dowager He asked, at this time the Han Dynasty was in a storm, although the Manchu Dynasty civil and military but no one was up to the task, the current 14th Kwantung Coalition Army pressed the border, although under the banner of Dong Qinwang and Kuang Fu Han, but the situation was extremely delicate.
Empress Dowager He thought of the orphans, widows, and miserable and helpless, and it was reasonable to want to find a backer from the princes of the Fourteenth Route Kwantung Province.
However, Empress Dowager He's question made Liu Bei so happy that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven! This guy doesn't know where to find Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, who has always lived in the Han family, but many powerful people in various places don't buy it, and they don't take him as a "Han family clan" in their eyes.
Liu Bei was angry, but also helpless.
Because his identity has not been recognized by the imperial court at all, now that Empress Dowager He took the initiative to ask, it was like a big pie falling from the sky, and she wanted to correct the name of Liu Bei, the "Han clan relative"!
Although he was already smiling in his heart, Liu Bei still had a bitter and hateful and respectful face on his face, and responded respectfully: "Back to the Queen Mother, after the minister was King Jing of Zhongshan, his grandfather Liu Hong was the county magistrate of Fan County in Dongjun. ”
The Queen Mother was overjoyed when she heard this: "Come, please ask the family tree of the imperial family to check the lineage of Lord Liu Bei." ”
"Yes."
The two eunuchs took the decree and left, and in less than a moment, more than a dozen eunuchs carried a whole number of large boxes of imperial family trees, and then when the palace was checked, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military and the princes of the Eighteenth Road waited like fools on the golden palace for a long time, until noon, the eunuchs who were busy sweating heavily verified Liu Bei's lineage table.
Emperor Xiaojing gave birth to fourteen sons.
The seventh son was Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan. Shengsheng Lucheng Pavilion Marquis Liu Zhen. Zhensheng Peihou Liu Ang. Liu Lu, Marquis of Ang Shengzhang. Lusheng Yishui Hou Liu Lian. Lovers of Qinyang Hou Liu Ying. Yingsheng An Guohou Liu Jian. Jiansheng Guangling Marquis Liu Ai. Mourning glue Hou Liu Xian. Xiansheng ancestor Liu Shu. Shu Sheng, Qiyang, Hou Liu Yi. Yisheng Yuan Zehou Liu Bi. Must be born Yingchuan Hou Liu Da. Dasheng Feng Linghou Liu is not suspicious. There is no doubt that Liu Hui, the Marquis of Jichuan. Wison Dongjun Fan Ling Liu Xiong. Xiongsheng Liu Hong. Hongbushi. Liu Bei is the son of Liu Hong.
In the last rank, Liu Bei is the eighteenth grandson of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty is the nineteenth grandson of Emperor Jing. Empress Dowager He was very happy at that time, and said behind the curtain: "It's noon, please quit the court, and Uncle Liu Huang stays in the palace for dinner." ”
Liu Bei said happily: "The minister's decree." ”
Yuan Shao and other fourteenth Kwantung princes had no choice but to withdraw from the Deyang Hall sullenly, and each returned to the camp without mentioning it.
