Emperor Ling's sons died many times, and only the two princes Liu Wei and Liu Xie survived.
Liu Wei was born in Xiping five years (176 years), now fourteen years old, his mother He was just a palace maid at that time, after his birth, his mother was a nobleman, was named a nobleman, favored by Emperor Ling, and the Empress of Song was abolished two years later and promoted to queen.
After Liu Wei was born, He was afraid that he would die early like other princes, so he was raised in the home of Shi Ziyi, a Taoist who was said to be skilled, and grew up healthy in the Taoist family, and the people around him did not dare to call him his real name, so he was called "Shi Hou", which means the Hou Ye in the family of Shi Dao, and the nursery rhyme "Hou Fei Hou, Wang Fei Wang, thousands of rides back to Bishan", in which "Hou" refers to this Shi Hou.
Liu Xie was born in the fourth year of Guanghe (181), nine years old, his mother Wang Meiren, because of the favor of Emperor Ling, was killed by the jealousy of Empress He, Emperor Ling was afraid that Liu Xie would also be killed by the queen, and sent him to his biological mother Empress Dowager Dong to raise.
Among the two sons, Liu Wei is old, but he has been raised in the folk since he was a child, although his mother has become a queen, but he also comes from the lowest level of the people, Liu Bian's aristocratic etiquette education is naturally not so perfect, in the eyes of Emperor Ling, this is a frivolous performance, no imperial prestige, has never liked it, compared to him he loves his youngest son Liu Xie.
But after the He family became the queen, his half-brother He Jin had already worshiped the general, holding the military power of the Beijing Division, at this time, if the young son Liu Xie, who had no maternal power, would definitely change, so although the ministers asked for the crown prince several times, Emperor Ling put it all aside, until he died of illness, he was unable to establish the crown prince.
Emperor Ling handed over this force to his most trusted eunuch Xiao Huangmen Jian Shuo, and sealed him as a military captain, compared to a eunuch, the rest of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and other captains are more willing to obey He Jin, and Jian Shuo cannot fully master the eight captains.
Emperor Ling collapsed, Empress Dowager Dong and Jian Shuo supported Liu Xie, and the He brothers and sisters naturally supported Liu Wei, and conflict was inevitable.
The first to attack was the eunuch Jian Shuo, who secretly hid a soldier in the palace, and wanted to kill He Jin first and then set up Liu Xie as the emperor, but Jian Shuo's Sima Pan Yin was He Jin's old acquaintance, and when he entered the palace, he hinted with his eyes that He Jin was busy returning to the military camp from the sidewalk, lying that he was sick and could not enter the palace again, and at the same time ordered the army to gather outside the palace to threaten, and Jian Shuo's plan failed.
Two days after the death of Emperor Ling, with the backing of the army outside the palace, the general and Empress He successfully supported Liu Wei, who was called "Shi Hou" by the people, to succeed him as the Son of Heaven, and changed the year name to Guangxi.
After Liu Wei succeeded to the throne, Jian Shuo, the captain of the military academy, also wanted to abolish the emperor and set up Chen Liuwang as the emperor, but unfortunately the matter was leaked, and soon, He Jin ordered the Huangmen to arrest Jian Shuo and kill him, and the Empress Dowager Dong was also poisoned to death by her daughter-in-law in the palace.
Jian Shuo died, the eight captains of the West Garden all fell into the hands of the general, He Jin held all the military power in Luoyang, and disagreed with the eunuchs, at this time, the party members Qingliu who had suffered from the "disaster of the party" before began to settle the old accounts, Yuan Shao, who was born in the "Fourth World and Three Princes" Runan Yuan family, was the most happy to make friends with Qingliu celebrities, such as Zhang Miao, He Hao, Xu You, etc., all of them are famous party members.
He Jin's family came from the people, and they made their fortune by becoming the queen's sister, and they were also willing to get close to the brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu from everyone's prestigious clan, so as to improve their prestige, and soon promoted He Hao to be the candidate of the Northern Army, Xu You to be the Huangmen Shilang, Zheng Tai to be the Shangshu, and more than 20 party members were promoted at the same time.
So far, Yuan Shao and others have repeatedly persuaded He Jin to kill the eunuchs, but the ten permanent servants are pervasive, and the Empress Dowager He is waiting for her thoroughly, He Jin every time she proposes to kill in front of her sister, she is reprimanded by him, and Empress Dowager He's mother Wuyangjun and younger brother He Miao were bribed by the eunuchs with a lot of money, and they obstructed it in many ways, and the discussion of killing was fruitless.
Yuan Shao, who has a prominent background and great ambition and talent, made a first-hand stupid move at this time: ask He Jin to mobilize the military generals of the Quartet, lead the troops into the capital Luoyang, and admonish the Queen Mother!
Killing a few eunuchs, actually to let the general commander of the army to mobilize the forces of other towns, this is simply a careless approach, but the key is that He Jin, who also has no ability, feels that this idea is feasible, and Cao Cao, the captain of the military academy, and others dissuade to no avail, General He ordered to summon Dong Zhuo, the Taishou of Hedong, to lead the army to Beijing, and sent Wang Kuang, the envoy of the Fu Dynasty, and Bao Xin, the cavalry captain, to return to his hometown to recruit troops. When the soldiers from all directions rose up, the Beijing division was shaken, and the Empress Dowager He really felt that the situation was serious, and hurriedly put all the eunuchs such as Zhongchang and Xiaohuangmen home.
At this time, Yuan Shao made a second trick, he wrote a letter to inform the state and county magistrates, falsely claiming that He Jin meant, and ordered them to arrest the relatives of the eunuchs who had not returned home and put them in prison.
If you want to do it, you have to wait for people to leave the capital, and then a few county officials will be able to do it, and they can catch it all, but Yuan Shao couldn't wait, and he thought that the general situation had been decided, so he actually asked the magistrate to do it in advance.
History is always composed of many inevitable accidents, those who think that they are righteous and harmless are no less harmful than Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, and the rebellion of Dong Zhuo and the princes in the late Han Dynasty are combined, and Yuan Shao's responsibility is great.
At this time, the eunuchs were cornered, and there was only one way to go.
On the 25th day of August in the summer calendar, the ten permanent attendants and other eunuchs were willing to serve the queen mother for the last time before leaving Beijing, and entered the palace again, crying in the Changle Palace where the Empress Dowager He lived, and knelt down and begged the empress dowager to save her life.
Under the command of Zhang Rang, the Zhongchang servant Duan Qi and others led dozens of party followers, and killed him when He Cheng arrived in front of the Jiade Hall in the palace, and that night, he learned that He Jin was killed, and his subordinates Wu Kuang, Zhang Zhang, Yuan Shu and other generals led troops to surround ** and began to attack.
At dawn on the second day, the eunuchs couldn't hold on, and entered the Changle Palace to report to the Empress Dowager He, falsely claiming that the general's subordinates rebelled, coerced the Empress Dowager He, the Son of Heaven, Chen Liuwang Xiehe and the officials in the province, and hijacked other officials in the palace and fled into the North Palace.
On August 27, Zhang Rang, Duan Gui and others were forced to rebel against the army, there was nothing to do, and dozens of people such as the Son of Heaven and Chen Liuwang walked out of the palace and fled to the outside of Luoyang City, the six jade seals used by the Son of Heaven were not carried, and there was no public secretary to follow, Shangshu Lu Zhi, Peng Min Gong in the middle of Henan Province led the cavalry to chase, and chased on the bank of the Yellow River when it was almost dawn, at this time the young emperor was hungry and thirsty, Min Gong killed the sheep and entered, and reprimanded Zhang Rang and other ** countries for disorderly government, and hacked several eunuchs to death with a sword, Zhang Rang and others knew that the death period had come, kowtowed to the Son of Heaven to say goodbye, and then committed suicide by throwing himself into the river.
After that, they were scattered by the rebels, leaving only Min Gong to help the young emperor and Chen Liuwang, and the three of them went south by night, wanting to return to the palace. After a few miles, the people got a cart, changed to take the ox cart, after dawn, found two horses, the Son of Heaven rode alone, Chen Liuwang and Min Gong rode a horse, continued to go south, only then did the secretary of state come to meet.
Dong Zhuo, the Taishou of Hedong who entered Beijing under the order of He Jin and the "King of Qin", led the army to the outside of Luoyang City. When he arrived in the west of the capital, he heard that the young emperor and his entourage were in the north, and they were going back to the palace, and led the army and the ministers to meet under the Beimanghan (now Beibi Mountain) in the north of Luoyang City.
The Son of Heaven was frightened for a few days, and at this time he saw Dong Zhuo suddenly leading a large army to come, and he was so frightened that he cried and shed tears, Dong Zhuo stepped forward to talk to him, the Son of Heaven was incoherent, but it was only nine years old Chen Liuwang on the side to answer like a stream, Dong Zhuo felt that Chen Liuwang was more virtuous than the young emperor, and he was the same clan as the Empress Dowager Dong who raised Chen Liuwang, and he already had the idea of deposing the Son of Heaven and changing Chen Liuwang as the emperor.
On the same day (August 28, September 25, 189 AD), the young emperor returned to the palace, granted amnesty to the world, and changed the Yuan to Zhaoning.
On the first day of September in the first year of Zhaoning (September 28, 189), Dong Zhuo convened hundreds of officials in the front hall of Chongde, and forced Empress Dowager He to issue an edict to depose the Son of Heaven as the King of Hongnong and set up King Chen Liu. Later, Yuan Kui helped King Hongnong to go down to the palace, and called the new emperor sitting in the north.
The edict of the abolition of the emperor that the Empress Dowager He was forced to write was:
"Emperor Xiaoling did not investigate Gaozong's eyebrows and longevity, and abandoned his courtiers early. The emperor Cheng Shao, looking at the sea, and the emperor is frivolous, majestic and unscrupulous, in mourning and lazy, declining as before; Fierce virtue is displayed, obscenity is heard, the artifact is insulted, and the temple is degraded. The queen mother taught no mother, and the government was in chaos. The Empress Dowager Yongle collapsed, and everyone was confused. The way of the three outlines, the discipline of heaven and earth, and there is a que, the great sin. Chen Liuwang Xie, Shengde Weimao, the rules are Miaoran, the abundance is exchanged, and there is a table of Yaotu; Mourning and mourning, not being able to speak of evil, the nature of Qi Ling, and the Yi of Zhou Cheng. Xiu Shengmei said, what the world has heard, it is advisable to inherit the Hongye, for the eternal unity, and can inherit the temple. The deposed emperor was the king of Hongnong. The Queen Mother returned to power. ”
The gist of it is that the young emperor (Note 2) Liu Wei was born with frivolous behavior, and his appearance lacked the majesty that a king should have, and during the mourning period for the first emperor, he did not fulfill his filial piety as a son, was lazy and lazy, and was no different from not holding a funeral on weekdays, and even made ** behavior, the scandal was known to the world, and it was insulting to the society and the ancestors, so he was deposed as the king of Hongnong, and Chen Liuwang was virtuous, so Liu Xie was appointed as the emperor.
Note 1: The initial name of the record is "Lingshang Shushi", and later changed to "Ling" to "Lu", the weight is heavier, and the meaning of "Lu" is the general leader. After the Wei and Jin dynasties, most of the ministers who held great power carried the name of Shangshushi, and it was not completely abolished until the Sui Dynasty.
Note 2: Called the deposed emperor. Tang Liu Zhiji's "Stone Title": "The Son of Heaven sees the deposed person, after the Han and Wei dynasties, he is called the young emperor." ”
