Chapter 86: Split (4)
The next day, on the first day of the ninth month, Dong Zhuo convened the ministers in the Chongde Hall to decide on the abolition. This time, no one objected anymore.
I saw that there was no expression on the face of the Empress Dowager He, and she issued an edict in the hall and said: "The young emperor is mourning, there is no heart of a son, and his majesty is not like a human king, and he is now abolished as the king of Hongnong; Chen Liuwang Xie is humble and modest, intelligent and enlightened, has the etiquette of a king, and is now established as the Son of Heaven to dedicate himself to the emperor. β
At this moment, Liu Wei was at a loss, and he didn't know what was going on at all. Liu Xie was a little surprised, but he was just silent.
But he saw Taifu Yuan Kui walking up to Liu Wei and bowing, then untied the seal ribbon on Liu Wei's body, and then retreated to Liu Xie. However, Liu Xie did not take it immediately, but only looked at the Empress Dowager He on the side hesitantly. saw that Empress Dowager He nodded slightly, signaling that he could take it. So, Liu Xie took the seal ribbon in his hand and began his imperial road.
Immediately, Yuan Kui stepped forward again and said to Liu Wei: "King Hongnong, now that you are no longer the Son of Heaven, please get up and give up the throne to the new emperor." β
"Oh, good." Liu Wei nodded, then got up and stood aside.
Yuan Kui walked up to Liu Xie again and said, "Please take a seat, Your Majesty." β
"Hmm." Liu Xie nodded, walked to the throne and knelt down.
Then, Yuan Kui walked up to Liu Wei again and said, "King Hongnong, you need to worship the new emperor with your highness and the ministers. β
"Oh, I see." Liu Wei nodded, and followed Yuan Kui to His Royal Highness, and then worshiped Liu Xie with the Manchu Dynasty civil and military.
Immediately, Liu Wei asked again: "Taifu, is this all right?" β
Yuan Kui nodded and said, "Yes, that's it." β
Liu Wei said: "If there is nothing else, I will play." β
Yuan Kui couldn't help but say, "No, no, you can't call yourself "I" anymore in the future. β
Liu was puzzled: "Why? β
Yuan Kui said: "Because only the Son of Heaven can call himself "I", and you are no longer the Son of Heaven now. β
Liu Wei nodded and said, "Oh, okay, Iβoh no, I see; Can I play then? β
At this moment, Empress Dowager He looked at her innocent son, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Suddenly, she had a feeling of sadness coming from it, and her eyes couldn't help but moisten a little.
But I heard Dong Zhuo suddenly say: "Okay, there's nothing for you here, you go down and take off your dragon robe, and you can go to play." β
Liu Wei nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go." β
At this moment, I also feel some sighs. In the past, people always believed in the fate of heaven and the like, but from this moment on, people will understand once and for all that the future is created by their own hands, not by any destiny.
When the new emperor ascended the throne, he needed to change the name of the era, so he changed the first year of Zhaoning to the first year of Yonghan.
After the enthronement ceremony was over, I went back to Xianyang Garden with the Empress Dowager He to pack my things. In the past, her son was the Son of Heaven, and she was revered as the Queen Mother and could live here. And now she is moving to Yong'an Palace, which is a cold palace.
Those who lived in the cold palace also had some concubines of Emperor Ling before his death. They were all angry with her before, and this time they thought they wouldn't let go of the opportunity to fall into the well. But it doesn't matter, I'll stay by her side to protect her for the time being, and when she's "dead", I'll be completely free.
Just as we were packing up our things, an uninvited guest came, it was Ye Xun, the "thorny head secretary" who I had made her very unhappy before.
"Yo, aren't these two the same people? Oh, I remember, it's the Empress Dowager He and Min Changshi; I heard that you two don't live here, where are you going to move? "This stinky girl is really annoying, and she just came to such a bad sentence. If she weren't a woman, I would have beaten her up.
At this time, I was packing my bags and didn't pay attention to the stinky girl. Empress Dowager He on the side couldn't help frowning, and she was also silent and didn't speak. It can be seen that her temper has changed a lot.
Seeing that neither of us squeaked, Ye Xun became even more arrogant, and said: "Why, wasn't it still the commanding "Queen Mother" a few days ago, why did it wilt today?" β
At this time, another palace maid on the side suddenly said, "Sister, don't say that; In any case, she is still the queen of the first emperor, and those of us who are palace maids should respect her; Empress Dowager He, the slave maid is here to pack your bags for you. β
This palace maid is Ye Xun's sister Ye Xi, she is the secretary in charge of Shang Mujian. In appearance, the two sisters look quite similar, but in terms of personality, they are completely different, she is much more gentle and kind than her sister.
Ye Xun pulled the corners of his mouth and said, "Huh, what about the queen of the first emperor, isn't she still in the cold palace now?" As for the bad things she did before, whether she can live safely and soundly in the cold palace is still unknown. β
"Shut up the mourners!" Although the current Empress Dowager He has been beaten into the cold palace, she still maintains her previous majesty.
In this regard, Ye Xun said: "Yo, you have already been beaten into the cold palace, and you dare to be so arrogant, I think you are simply itchy!" β
As he spoke, Ye Xun wanted to come up and slap Empress Dowager He. However, I had already come to her ahead of her and grabbed her hand. I must have known that she would come here at this time, and I must not have any good intentions, so how can I not be wary of her.
"Ah, it hurts, let go!" I pushed a little harder, and it hurt me to pinch her. I believe that as long as I use a little more force, her hand can be completely reimbursed.
At this time, Ye Xi, who was helping to clean up his things on the side, saw this, and couldn't help but hurriedly say, "Oh, sister, how can you be so rude to Empress Dowager He?" Queen Mother, sister, she didn't mean to be rude to you, the slave and maid have made amends to you here, please forgive her, right? β
At this moment, Empress Dowager He felt a little angry in her heart. She never thought that the palace maid who had always grovelled to her in the past would treat her like this now. But at the same time, she also suddenly reflected, maybe she had done too many bad things in the past, and now she would have such an end just retribution.
She couldn't help but groan to herself, and then said, "That's it, let her go." β
I said, "I advise you not to go too far." With that, I let go of her hand.
Ye Xi couldn't help but bow and said, "Thank you for the Queen Mother's forgiveness, and the slave will then pack up for you." β
But seeing Ye Xun holding his painful wrist and looking at me hatefully, he turned around and ran away.
Seeing this, Ye Xi couldn't help but hurriedly shouted: "Sister, sister-alas, sister is really, why did she run away." β
I said, "It's okay, you go after her, I'll just clean it up here." β
Ye Xi said, "The slave and maid retired." β
Empress Dowager He nodded and said, "Go ahead." β
Immediately, Ye Xi walked away.
I couldn't help but smile slightly and said to her, "It's okay, I don't have to be angry like this anymore if I endure it for a few more days." β
"Hmm." She smiled and nodded, and said, "Come, I'll clean up with you." β
At this moment, a maid suddenly came to report and said, "Empress Dowager He, the old lady Wuyangjun is here." β
Wuyangjun is the biological mother of Empress Dowager He. When she heard that her mother was coming, she couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Immediately, a woman over the age of sixteen walked in, and there seemed to be a hint of displeasure on her face.
Seeing this, Empress Dowager He couldn't help but smile and greeted her, saying, "Mother, why are you here?" β
Wuyang Jun said with a dark face: "Looking at the good things you have done, how can you bear to issue an edict to abolish the throne of Wei'er?" β
Empress Dowager He couldn't help but say: "Mother, you don't know anything; He is greedy by nature, and he is really not suitable to be an emperor, but it is more suitable for him to be a county king. β
Wuyangjun said: "You, you, don't fool my old woman here; I'm your real mother, don't I know what you're thinking? You are so confused, how can you do such a foolish thing for such an insignificant boy? β
Empress Dowager He couldn't help but feel a little weak, but said, "Mother, what are you talking nonsense about. β
Suddenly, Wuyangjun sighed, revealing a clichΓ©, and said, "Okay, don't pretend to be confused anymore, you girl; I have heard that you don't let the palace maid serve you closely, but you have specially found a handsome boy to take care of your diet and daily life; Such an unconscionable act can be seen at a glance what it means; That's it, just do whatever you want, I can't stop you, I just hope this kid won't let you down in the future. β
"Mother!" When Empress Dowager He heard this, she couldn't help but be moved.
At this time, my expression moved, and I couldn't help but say, "Wuyang-kun, please rest assured, I will definitely take good care of your daughter in the future." β
But I saw Wuyangjun patting the hand of the Empress Dowager He, and then looked at me again, but immediately said in surprise: "Yo, this kid is really handsome, no wonder it can make you a girl who is confused!" β
When I heard this, I couldn't help but shake my head amusedly.
saw Empress Dowager He burst into tears and laughed, and said, "Oh, mother, look at what you said." β
Wuyangjun smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I won't talk about it." β
At this time, I suddenly said, "By the way, Wuyang-kun, can you also stay for lunch?" β
Empress Dowager He also said: "Yes, mother, my daughter and you haven't seen each other for a long time, so let's stay a few more days this time, right?" β
Wuyangjun nodded and said, "Okay, let the old woman send you on your last ride." β
Suddenly, I couldn't help but feel a little surprised, as if this old man seemed to know everything. Perhaps, when people reach a certain age, it is easy to understand the connotation of some things.
