26. On the eve of the trial of the third session

Comrade Liu Xin, the great son of the Han Dynasty, the highest level of the Han supreme leader who has been tested, and the indispensable comrade of the Han people, died in Jianzhang Palace on the morning of the third day of June in the second year of Yuanshou at the age of 25 due to ineffective treatment for a long time.

This is the "most authoritative" official account for the death of the Son of Heaven.

It is impossible for the young Son of Heaven to die for no reason, and there must be a reasonable explanation, so that there can be an explanation for the subjects of the Han Dynasty.

Although for the princes surnamed Liu, no matter how his son of heaven died, only when he dies can he have a chance to ascend to the throne, he also needs a reasonable, legal and royal majesty on the surface. Therefore, the claim that aphrodisiacs are too much to cause death is naturally untenable.

Even if the politics is correct, when there are a lot of rumors circulating among the people that are unfavorable to the Empress Dowager and her father, Wang Shu despises this statement very much.

"The foolish people will not understand this, they will only remember the name of the Son of Heaven, and that will explain everything."

Maybe it was because he made a lot of effort when he broke into the palace, and in the face of Wang Shu's questioning, his father was rarely not angry, but patiently explained.

"If that's the case, then it's better to say in the proclamation that the great Son of Heaven dedicated his life to the prosperity of the Han Dynasty and the well-being of the people, and then give him a nickname!"

"My son has a real taste of politics."

Unexpectedly, when my father heard this, he would brush his beard and smile and praise.

"In this case, it can also be added to the proclamation that the revolutionary career of the great Son of Heaven is the life of a loving father of the people who gave everything for the happiness and prosperity of future generations."

"Not bad!"

"Then, the life of the great Son of Heaven is the life of an outstanding great man who unswervingly inherited the thoughts and leadership of countless previous emperors and illuminated the road to eternal victory for the people of the Han Dynasty, how about this sentence?"

"Good!"

"The revolutionary career of the great Son of Heaven is the life of a famous general who reliably upheld the dignity and sovereignty of the Han and the people?"

"Anything else?" Unexpectedly, my father took a pen and began to record every word Wang Shu said.

"The Son of Heaven is the powerful force of the Han Dynasty and the sun that never sets on the people."

In the end, the black-bellied Wang Shu felt that his teeth were about to sore, but the father was full of interest, thinking that these words could be used at the sacrifice of the Son of Heaven.

"Father, haven't you heard the rumors outside?" Wang Shu couldn't bear it anymore.

"You mean that the Queen Mother drove into the palace and pointed at Dong Xian for her father?"

"Exactly!"

"If you were a father, what would you do?"

"Check, find out who is creating rumors, and then publish the truth."

"The truth, do you want to tell the world about Dong Xian, the Son of Heaven? Who can agree, the Queen Mother? Princes and kings? Or the ministers of the court? Or are you? ”

"Huh? Did the Son of Heaven really give up the throne to Dong Xian? ”

"Otherwise, why did Dong Xian not tell the ministers about the death of the Son of Heaven three days ago, and Fu Wen dared to stop the Empress Dowager from driving."

"Even so, the Empress Dowager and her father can't be wronged."

"So hard, hard!"

"If that's the case, it's better to have a formal public trial to restore the innocence of the Empress Dowager and her father."

"Public trial? What does that mean? ”

"It is a public trial, presided over by Da Sima, Da Situ, Da Sikong and Tingwei, and the princes, ministers of the court and village elders can observe, on the one hand, Dong Xian, Fu Wen and others can be held responsible, and the situation of the day can be restored, and the rumors will be self-defeating."

"Is this really possible?"

"Why not, Dong Xian can't come up with the real evidence of the Son of Heaven's Zen position now, if he says it, it is also an edict, who can take it seriously."

"This ......, you step back and think about it for your father!"

In fact, what Wang Yu thought was that since the father and the empress dowager were betrayed because the matter of the Son of Heaven could not be announced, then through the so-called public trial, all the participants should be allowed to carry the thunder together, he did not believe it, and after doing so, the history books would be the same as the previous records.

If you don't want people to know, you can't do it unless you do. As the temporary controller of the supreme power of the Han Dynasty, as long as Wang Mang and the Empress Dowager want to, there is nothing that cannot be done.

On the third day after Wang was proposed for a public trial, Dong Xian, Fu Wen and others were imprisoned one after another, and Empress Fu was also placed under house arrest in the palace. Surprisingly, Zhao Feiyan, Wang Li, and Wang Guang were also related to rumors.

Subsequently, the Empress Dowager promulgated an edict, and the ministers of the court elected the new Grand Sima, and the three dukes and court captains selected the trial of the case of the death of the Son of Heaven, who died of illness and death, and 10 people from the civil and military officials and the 10 people who were in Chang'an and Gao Deshao were observed.

It was only at this time that Wang Shu figured out why he had the feeling of a thorn in his back.

It's different, the direction of history is really different, and from today on, history is no longer the one you know well.

It's very simple to say, but in the face of the confusing future, what role can he play, Wang Shu has no bottom in his heart.

……

"It is said that on this day, the four Tang monks and apprentices came to a country called the daughter country, and the king is a woman."

"A woman as a king?"

"Yes, the world is full of wonders, aunt and grandmother, you should listen to me and continue."

A few days later, when Wang Shu entered the palace to tell Wang Zhengjun about Journey to the West to relieve boredom, it happened that Wang Mang was also there, so he had an idea to tell the story of his daughter's country.

"If you want to say that this daughter country, in addition to having a queen, like our Han, there is a big Sima, a prime minister, and a royal doctor, but there is also a difference, that is, there is also a big council."

In the mouth of the king, this daughter kingdom is the same as England in later generations, the parliament is composed of the House of Nobles, the House of Commons and the King, which exercises the supreme legislative power of the country, and the government is elected from the parliament and is responsible to it.

"It's strange to say that although this daughter country has experienced internal and external troubles, the royal family has continued to this day, and the country has stood for 3,000 years without falling. Some people have also studied it, and it has been found that the separation of legislative, executive, and judicial powers in the daughter country is the foundation of the country's consistent stability. ”

"The king of the daughter country was in a very bad mood because the parliament did not approve the cost of building a new palace, and as a result, Tang monks and apprentices stayed in the post house for half a month and were not allowed to see him."

"The king is not a king, the minister is not a minister, it is really a barbarian country."

"Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and this daughter country is too much."

The separation of powers was not very incomprehensible to the old lady and Wang Mang, but when they heard that the king needed parliamentary approval to spend money, the two of them couldn't sit still.

"It seems that the parliament restricts the rights of the king, but because there is a parliament with members elected by the people themselves, none of them will rebel, so the kings of each generation of daughter countries are actually secretly having fun."

Under the guidance of Wang Xu, intentionally or unintentionally, no one cares about the fragrant story of a monk in the country of his daughter, and the two pets of monkey and pig have long been forgotten in Java.

The current Empress Dowager and the Marquis of the New Capital, there is only one thing on their minds, the separation of powers, it seems, it seems, that through this public trial, they can try one or two in advance.
