(This is the penultimate chapter of this volume, and the last chapter will be added in the afternoon, and the second volume of this book will be released. ）

At this time, it was already noon, Liu Chan had just stepped out of the palace with the support of Huang Hao, and Liu Chen, the king of the northern land, had already taken the first step to hold the seal, bowed to the ground, and said loudly: "Father, the son has a play!" ”

Huang Hao glanced at Liu Chen, who was kneeling on the ground, and suddenly chuckled in his heart, secretly feeling that something was wrong.

The royal sacrificial ceremony has always been extremely complicated, Liu Chan has been busy for a morning, he is already exhausted, he just wants to go back to the palace to rest early, but he doesn't want Liu Chen to stop him again, he can't help frowning slightly, signaling him to calm down, and said: "At this moment, when it is not the time for the court to discuss politics, if you have something, it is not too late to play again tomorrow!" ”

Liu Chen turned his head to look at Huang Hao, and said loudly: "Erchen wants to impeach Huang Hao, the middle servant!" ”

Huang Hao shook his spirit, and he really came at him. Looking at Liu Chen's posture, I am afraid that he has been plotting for a long time. Although he was angry in his heart, he held back and did not speak. One is that the heir did not speak, and he did not dare to speak, and the other is that Liu Chen is a child of the royal family after all, known as a heroic and strong man, Huang Hao is always flying and domineering, but he does not dare to put up a fight in front of him, the most important thing is that Liu Chen did not explain why he impeached himself, and jumping up at this time is tantamount to telling the truth.

Liu Chan said impatiently: "Why did you impeach Huang Hao? ”

"Erchen impeached Huang Hao for abusing power and disorderly government, endangering the foundation of the Han Dynasty!" Liu Chen knew that his first blow had to be knocked on Huang Hao's joints, leaving him speechless, so he took a deep breath, held the music in his hand, and said loudly: "Before the Wei army invaded Shuzhong, the general Jiang Wei repeatedly asked the imperial court to send troops to guard various passes to guard against the invasion of the Wei army, but he didn't want to be hidden by Huang Hao and not reported. Later, when the Wei army attacked from three directions, Huang Hao hid in various passes and urgently asked for help, so that our army lost the important place in Hanzhong. What's more, Huang Hao actually confused his father with the words of the witch god and ghost woman, and almost made his father a big mistake to destroy the country! Such a traitorous eunuch misleads the country and the people, and it must be removed! The sons implored their father to remove Huang Hao's official position, put Huang Hao in prison for punishment, and punish him with a canonical punishment! ”

"The emperor's ......" Liu Chan frowned slightly, hearing Liu Chen mention the matter of the witch god and ghost woman, his face was a little unbearable, and he opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to say it.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has a book!" It was Zhuge Zhan who spoke, but his clear voice just alleviated Liu Chan's embarrassment.

Liu Chan didn't want Zhuge Zhan to have something to say, and said, "What's the matter with Aiqing?" ”

"Weichen also wants to impeach Huang Hao!" Zhuge Zhan took two steps forward and said loudly: "Huang Hao was originally a eunuch in the inner palace, and he was able to serve His Majesty thanks to His Majesty's favor. Huang Hao should have fulfilled his duties and served His Majesty, but he didn't want this person to rely on His Majesty's favor, form a party for personal gain, exclude dissidents, and interfere in court politics. The minister thought that what the king of the north said was very true, and begged His Majesty to issue a decree to remove Huang Hao from his official position and go to prison to punish the crime, so as to clear the Shu family! ”

Liu Chan was stunned, Zhuge Zhan and Liu Chen both pointed at Huang Hao, and they didn't know if it had been plotted a long time ago, or was it a coincidence? I had doubts in my heart, but I groaned and didn't speak.

"Your Majesty, the old minister seconded the proposal!" The voice of the voice was old and thick, Guan Yi looked up, and saw a gray-haired veteran slowly coming out of class, but it was not the general of the town army, Zong Pre? Zong Yu slowly took two steps forward, although he faltered, but he was extremely firm, bowed down to Liu Chan, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Huang Hao formed a party for personal gain, arbitrarily disrupted the government, and brought disaster to the country and the people, his crime is worse than that of the ten permanent servants of the Ling Emperor, the old minister implores His Majesty to issue a decree to eliminate Huang Hao's traitorous party, and return the court to a clean house!" ”

"The old general is loyal to the country, he is sincere, and I am very moved!" For the old ministers of the two dynasties, although Liu Chan is the son of heaven, he does not dare to slack off, although the words are not boundary, and he knows that it is perfunctory when he hears it, but in the hearts of the civil and military officials present, he understands that the heir is extremely respectful to the Zongpre in his tone.

Guan Yi saw that Zhuge Zhan was in trouble with Liu Chen, and the veteran Zong Yu also echoed it, and his heart was even more bold. Glancing at Dong Ju, seeing him nodding slightly, he understood in his heart, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Weichen Guan Yi also has a book!" ”

When Liu Chan saw Guan Yi, his eyes lit up, and he said strangely: "Isn't Aiqing in Hanzhong, when will you return to Chengdu?" ”

Guan Yi glanced at Huang Hao and said loudly: "The last general was ordered by the general to return to Chengdu to meet the driver, and it has been a few days!" ”

"Well, Aiqing has made contributions to the country, and I will be rewarded for my hard work!" Although Liu Chan met Dong Ju in the court a few days ago, he didn't know that Guan Yi had also returned to Chengdu. At this time, seeing Guan Yi's expression, he faintly guessed a few points in his heart. turned his head to glance at Huang Hao, but saw him standing with his head down, as if he didn't see his gaze. A trace of annoyance suddenly appeared in his heart for no reason, and he snorted coldly, his face was already displeased.

"I don't know what Aiqing played?"

Guan Yi said loudly: "Weichen impeached Huang Hao for bullying the monarch and framing Zhongliang. In the twelfth year of Yanxi, Huang Hao relied on His Majesty's favor and trust, arbitrarily disrupted the government, and sometimes had Liu Yong, the king of Ganling, who was loyal and pure, and devoted himself to the country, but he didn't want to offend Huang Hao. For this reason, Huang Hao repeatedly slandered His Majesty, so that King Ganling was not allowed to enter the court for more than ten years! Such treacherous and insidious villains, if they are not removed, are not enough to correct the holiness of His Majesty. ”

Liu Chan is not a stupid person, so far he has already understood in his heart that what Huang Hao has done has already caused public anger, and Liu Chen, Zhuge Zhan, Guan Yi and others must have planned and decided to bring him down today. It's just that he didn't expect Guan Yi to mention Liu Yong and speak for him, and the meaning of his words is self-evident. However, looking at Guan Yi's behavior, it can be seen that since Liu Chen, Zhuge Zhan and Guan Yi have been connected, their allies are only afraid that there are far more than these three people, right?

Thinking in his heart, he said in a deep voice: "Everyone, who else has a book?" ”

"Your Majesty, General Jiang Wei has a watch!" When the civil and military officials heard this, they turned their heads, and saw that it was Dong Ju, the general of the auxiliary state, who spoke, and heard him mention Jiang Wei, and they had already guessed one or two points in their minds. As he spoke, he saw Dong Ju holding the chapter in his hand, bowed two steps forward, and said in a deep voice: "The chapter in Weichen's hand is a book written by the general to gather more than 20 generals above the Hanzhong general, please take a look!" ”

Liu Chan was expressionless, took the chapter handed over by Dong Ju from Xiao Huangmen's hand, glanced at it slightly, put together the chapter, and said: "All the secretaries, the general Jiang Wei and more than 20 generals in Hanzhong jointly signed the table, impeaching Huang Haoyi, a regular servant in the middle of the country, and causing disaster to the country and the people, what do you have to say?" ”

When the civil and military officials heard this, they immediately talked about it, but none of them went out to speak. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhuge Zhan and Jiang Wei, who have always disagreed with each other, must have formed a political alliance, and their purpose is to work together to bring down Huang Hao, not to mention representing the children of the royal family.

The ministers knew in their hearts that although Huang Hao had always won the favor of the heir, since the incident of the witch god and ghost woman, the heir had already had a grudge against Huang Hao. Moreover, although Huang Hao is powerful in the court, he is at best just a villain. really want to compete, but where is the opponent of Liu Chen and Zhuge Zhan and others? In the final analysis, Liu Chen is a child of the royal family, Zhuge Zhan is also a meritorious post, and even if Huang Hao is determined for a while, he is just a eunuch after all, and he can't become a big climate.

Taking a step back, even if Liu Chen and Zhuge Zhan and other important ministers of the imperial court can't help Huang Hao, more than 20 military generals represented by Jiang Wei jointly impeached Huang Hao, and their energy is enough to move mountains and seas and turn the world upside down. In any case, the heir has to think carefully, otherwise if it is not handled properly, it may cause a landslide and a crack.

In this situation, the hearts of the civil and military officials were bright, and Huang Hao couldn't escape this catastrophe, so he chose to keep silent very tacitly. Some courtiers who were close to Huang Hao on weekdays were even more speculative in their hearts, not only did they not dare to stand up and speak for Huang Hao, but they even secretly beat a small drum in their hearts to seek a way out for themselves.

At this moment, it is the best policy to protect one's self.

Huang Hao's face is like ashes, Liu Chen and Zhuge Zhan, Jiang Wei, Li Xiang, Guan Yi and others join forces, which means that the Liu royal family, the Jingxiang faction, the Yizhou local faction and the Zhaolie Emperor's patriarchal faction converge, who in the court can compete with it? The most important thing is that Jiang Wei also united all the generals in the army in Hanzhong, you must know that these more than 20 people represent tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the most elite of the Han Dynasty, and their influence is so great that even the heir has to be afraid of it.

Shang Shu ordered Fan Jian and the counselor Liu Chun to watch coldly, seeing that Liu Chen, Zhuge Zhan and Dong Ju had successively come out to impeach Huang Hao, and even Jiang Wei, who was far away in Hanzhong, had joined forces with the generals of the army to play the table, seeing that his posture had obviously formed an alliance and was ready to bring down Huang Hao in one fell swoop. The two glanced at each other, and said loudly together: "Your Majesty, Huang Hao manipulated authority, delayed military aircraft, framed Zhongliang, such a person who has brought disaster to the country and the people, and the crime cannot be punished." The ministers implore His Majesty to issue a decree and accept Huang Hao to be imprisoned for punishment in order to comfort the hopes of the army and the people! ”

"The ministers seconded it!" Huangmen squire Li Xiang and Fu Xi Lang Zongtai then went out to support.

"The ministers seconded it!" In the midst of speaking, the ones who stood up were the important ministers of Jiuqing led by Taichang Zhang Jun, Wei Wei Changji, and Dali Tao Kang.

"The ministers seconded it!" The generals of the Chinese army, Zhang Huxiong, Hu Ben Zhonglang, Mi Zhao, and other generals of Yulinwei were not to be left behind, and went out to echo them.

"Erchen seconded!" The crown prince Liu Xuan glanced at the generals, and then strode out of the class to echo. Liu Xuan's statement was tantamount to sending a signal to them that in the matter of Huang Hao, the Prince's Mansion stood on the side of Liu Chen and Zhuge Zhan without reservation. You must know that Liu Xuan, as the crown prince, has always been a unique family in the East Palace, and he is actually above 10,000 people under one person in the court, and his status is respected, even when Huang Hao's power was in full swing, he was helpless against the East Palace line. It can be seen that the power of the East Palace is so great that people dare not underestimate it.
