Zhang asked them to kneel down together, and said in unison: "Emperor Shengming!" ”

The ten permanent servants have been staying with the emperor for a long time, and the so-called emperor's sacred aperture has long been gone in their hearts, and they have long seen that although Liu Hong is the emperor, he is actually just an ordinary person, and even an ordinary person is not as good as an ordinary person, if the emperor is allowed to go out of the palace to make a living, he will have to starve to death!

But just such an emperor who is nothing, but he sees Li Qin's affairs very accurately, he said that Li Qin will definitely come, and Li Qin is really here!

The ten permanent attendants, including Zhang Rang, thought in their hearts: "It turns out that the Holy Son of Heaven is really different from ordinary people, and he usually can't see anything, but at the critical moment, the Holy Son of Heaven can still see it clearly!" ”

Liu Hong lay down for a long time, sat up suddenly, his head was a little dizzy, he coughed twice, Zhang Rang hurriedly put a pillow behind his back, and let Liu Hong lean on the pillow.

Liu Hong said: "Take out the wine, meat and wealth from the inner treasury and reward it to the Fujiao army." Also, as soon as Li Qin arrived, he immediately asked him to come to see me. ”

Zhang Rang agreed one by one, he saw that the emperor was in a bad spirit, so he said: "Your Majesty, you can lie down for a while, recover from your illness, so that after the Fujiao Army quells the rebellion, you can review them at the palace gate, so that the soldiers and generals can feel what the emperor's grace is!" ”

Liu Hong coughed twice, slowly lay down, he closed his eyes, and said a little confused: "You all go down!" ”

The ten permanent servants looked at Zhang Rang together, and motioned to Zhang Rang to talk about Liu Xie, Zhang Rang nodded slightly, and he whispered: "The emperor is resting, and someone needs to serve the soup by the couch, does the emperor want the queen to accompany him, or the third son of the emperor to serve?" ”

When the emperor was sick, he had to have relatives at the bedside to serve him, carrying water and handing handkerchiefs. If Zhang Rang asked who to come, Liu Hong's answer would definitely not be Liu Xie, the third son of the emperor, the child was too young, and it was purely a mess to carry him to the hospital bed. But Zhang Rang skillfully asked, whether to let the queen come, or let the third son of the emperor come, choose one of the two.

One of the reasons why Liu Hong was sick was that he was angry with Queen He, how could he let the queen accompany him, let alone let Queen He accompany him, even if he heard the word queen, Liu Hong was very annoyed.

Liu Hong said in a daze: "Don't let the queen come." ”

Zhang Rang agreed, and withdrew from the inner hall with the eunuchs. Zhang Rang called a little eunuch and said, "Go and bring the third son of the emperor, and the nurse and the palace maid will also bring it." ”

The little eunuch hurriedly agreed and went to hug Liu Xie.

A great eunuch asked, "What about the ministers outside the Wuyang Gate?" Still in the way? Don't let them in, I'm afraid that He Jin will be like thunder! ”

Zhang Rang smiled gloomily and said, "Wait for a while, wait for the third son of the emperor to come, and then wait for the emperor to fall asleep, and then let them in, let them all come in!" ”

The eunuchs nodded together, and then let He Jin and them in when the emperor fell asleep, the emperor was woken up, and he had to be angry, plus he was angry with the queen, the emperor must reprimand He Jin, He Jin came to report the good news in front of the ministers, but he was scolded for being disgraced, and he lost face in front of the ministers, and he would be laughed at; And when He Jin saw that it was Liu Xie who was accompanying the emperor, not his nephew Liu Wei, he had to be enlightened, so that the emperor had the idea of changing the crown prince, he would definitely go to Queen He, and Queen He also had to be anxious, as long as she was in a hurry and came to make trouble with the emperor, then their family would be fooled, and the emperor would have to repair them ruthlessly, maybe he could really change the crown prince because of this!

Zhang Rang and a group of big eunuchs sat in the outer hall and waited, and after a while, the little eunuchs brought Liu Xie over, and a large number of old, middle-aged and young palace maids followed. Zhang Rang looked at Liu Xie, squeezed out a smile, and said: "It really looks a little similar to Wang Meiren, but unfortunately, Wang Meiren was killed by the queen's mother, making the little prince a motherless child!" ”

Liu Xie's mother Wang Meiren was killed by Queen He, and there are many people who know it, but no one dares to say it clearly, but Zhang Rang said it at this time, children don't necessarily understand anything, but children cry a few times and call their mothers a few times, but adults can teach them immediately!

The eunuchs came to Liu Xie's side together, and Zhang Rang said: "Your mother was killed by Queen He, she has an elder brother named He Jin, he will come in to see your father in a while, and when He comes in, you will throw yourself on your father's bed, and then shout Don't kill me, beg your father to save you, otherwise He Jin will kill you like killing your mother!" ”

A big eunuch was afraid that Liu Xie didn't understand what death was, and didn't understand what it was like to be killed, so he said: "He Jin wants to kill you, you want to die, you can't see your father anymore, you can't see the Empress Dowager Dong, and you can't see your nurse, are you afraid?" ”

Liu Xie is too young, a three-year-old child, he can understand anything, he doesn't understand what he says is going to kill him, but he understands that it is a very terrible thing to not see his father and other close people.

The child's eyes widened in fright, and he began to sob, and he was about to cry in advance, but He Jin hadn't come yet!

Zhang Rang hurriedly beckoned and asked the nurse to come over, he said: "Be optimistic about the third son of the emperor, don't let him cry now, let him cry when He comes in, you can teach him again, if you teach him well, our family will be rewarded!" ”

The nurse and the palace maids hurriedly agreed, they were serving Liu Xie, and they were all under the control of the Empress Dowager Dong, and the Empress Dowager Dong and Empress He had never dealt with each other, so they naturally wanted to see Queen He unlucky, and even more wanted to see the general He Jin unlucky, anyway, they didn't need to do it themselves, just let Liu Xie cry, it's a very simple thing, why not!

Seeing that it was almost over, Zhang Rang waved his hand and asked the little eunuch to go to Wuyangmen to give an order and let He Jin and them in.

After a while, He Jin arrived angrily with a group of ministers. He Jin shouted: "Zhang Rang, you actually prevented the important ministers of the imperial court from meeting the Son of Heaven, do you want to cut off the Chinese and foreign, what should you be guilty of?" ”

Zhang Rang said unhurriedly: "General He is serious, our family has never had this kind of thought. If a foreign minister wants to enter the palace, no matter what the reason is, no matter whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, he must get the permission of the emperor, is it possible to come in directly? It's a forbidden place! ”

Theoretically speaking, Zhang Rang's statement is absolutely correct, the royal harem is not allowed to enter the foreign ministers, without the permission of the emperor, the ministers can enter if they want to, what kind of system will it become; But in fact, when there are special circumstances, you can also come in without the permission of the emperor himself, and the head of the ministers will lead everyone in, after all, there will always be accidents in life, in case the emperor is seriously ill, or is held hostage by some ill-intentioned people, and the ministers outside do not come to the rescue, then the emperor will be finished!

Now, just under the special situation of internal and external troubles, the Yellow Turban Army is about to hit the capital, and the emperor is sick again, and the internal and external troubles are complete, at this time, as a general, He Jin can bring the ministers in, of course, if he wants to come in by himself, it is not possible, it will make people say that he has the intention to control the emperor, or cause trouble in the inner court, so He Jin would rather give the credit for the good news to the ministers and bring everyone into the palace together, but Zhang Rang stopped them outside the Wuyang Gate and did not allow them to enter the emperor's bedroom.

He Jin and the ministers are not fools, the ten permanent servants separated them outside the palace gate, of course they know that the ten permanent servants are using this time to report the good news to the emperor, at the critical moment when the emperor is critically ill, increase the weight of the eunuch group in the emperor's heart, this is the last thing He Jin and the ministers want to see, if the emperor before his death, leave a certain edict that is beneficial to the eunuch group, then He Jin will be finished!

Regarding Zhang Rang's "righteous and strict words", He Jin also replied with "righteous and strict words": "The country is in an eventful autumn, and it is natural for us and other important ministers of the court to ask to meet the emperor!" ”

Zhang Rang heaved and said, "How to take it for granted, you can say it!" ”

Wang Yun came up from behind and said, "Why do you need to explain to the eunuchs about the courtiers' discussions. Zhang Zhongguan, you have overpassed! He pulled He Jin and hinted that He Jin should not fight with the Ten Constant Servants here, which was meaningless.

He Jin strode into the hall, and Wang Yun followed closely. Wang Yun whispered: "General, after seeing the emperor, you need to keep people by the emperor's side, monitor Zhang Rang and others, and don't give them a chance to make an edict, in case they fake the edict, the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”

For the emperor's body, Wang Yun knew that at this kind of emergency, there was no need to taboo anything, he picked the most important reminder He Jin, He Jin naturally understood, he nodded vigorously, thinking about who should stay by the emperor's side, the first thing he thought of was his sister Empress He, and then thought of his nephew Liu Bian, but Empress He did not invite the emperor to see her, and Liu Biao was too young.

In the middle of the difficulty, they entered the outer hall, but as soon as they entered the outer hall, He Jin's head buzzed, his body shook, and Wang Yun behind him was also shocked, and they saw Liu Xie who was taken care of by the palace maids at the same time!

At this time, the queen and the crown prince are not by the emperor's side, but Liu Xie is, this is a very serious danger signal, is it possible that the emperor wants to change the crown prince?

He Jin lost his mind instantly, but then he came to his senses and said angrily: "Why is he here, who brought him?" ”

Just now, Zhang Rang had already taught him, and when the palace maids saw He Jin's fierce and evil appearance, they immediately whispered to Liu Xie: "This person is going to kill His Highness, Your Highness go and ask your father for help!" ”

Liu Xie's little child knew something, and when he was frightened by the palace maids, he cried out, opened his calves, and ran to the inner hall, shouting: "Father, father, save your son!" ”

It's bad now, this is a face-to-face frame, and what comes out of the child's mouth, adults will think it's true, children won't lie, especially when it's a father, of course, he believes in his son even more, if the emperor hears it, even if He Jin is not pushed out and beheaded, he will have to go to prison, and if he doesn't die, he will have to be stripped of his skin!

He Jin was shocked, and immediately chased after him, shouting: "Stop, stop!" ”

Wang Yun was also anxious, he didn't stop He Jin, so he had to shout: "General, don't chase, don't chase!" He was so anxious that he almost jumped to his feet, at this moment, if he chased after him, the fake would have to come true, then he couldn't tell clearly, and everything had to be confirmed!

He Jin chased Liu Xie regardless of it, isn't it easy for the little doll to chase it, but he didn't expect that whose territory was this, he wanted to chase people here, just kidding, is being a vegetarian when he is a ten-standing waiter?

The little eunuchs rushed up and stopped He Jin, and the ten permanent attendants behind shouted together: "He Jin, Hugh has to commit murder!" ”

only felt that the strength of his whole body was instantly drained, Wang Yun thought: "It's over, He Jin, this rough billet, a fool who doesn't have a long brain, he has fallen into evil!" ”
