Chapter 172: Making Up for the Deficit

The two fell in love at first sight and swore an alliance.

He promised her a lifetime, promising to give her the position of queen. And that gentle woman promised to be with her heart for the rest of her life.

Liu Jun happily told the Queen Mother and the ministers that she would be crowned as the queen.

However, the Queen Mother and the ministers were fiercely opposed.

The queen can only be the princess of Liao, and the show girls who are elected to the palace can only be concubines.

The Queen Mother is also the princess of Liao, not Liu Jun's biological mother. She has already arranged everything, and she must be the queen of her niece of Liaoguo. No matter how much Liu Jun pleaded, it was to no avail.

At that time, Liu Jun's foundation was not stable, the Northern Han Dynasty was worried about internal and external troubles, the Queen Mother coerced and lured, and even threatened Lan Xin's life.

In order to save her life, Liu Jun finally compromised, married the princess Yelu Ligu of Liao, and made Lan Xin a concubine.

He thought that as long as the two of them could stay together, it was just a name, and it didn't matter.

Because he is the emperor, he will definitely be able to protect her.

But the compromise turned into a tragedy.

The Empress Dowager asked Mr. Yelu Ligu to rob the prince, so that he could inherit the throne in the future, and the Liao State could further manipulate the Northern Han Dynasty.

Liu Jun knew the ambitions of the Liao State, so he did not take advantage of Yelu Ligu.

At this time, Lan Xin was pregnant.

The two of them were full of joy and awaited the arrival of their first child. He even thought that he would be crowned crown prince as soon as the child was born, so that the queen mother and Jeruligu would have nothing to say.

But Lan Xin was born prematurely, and after tossing for two days and two nights, she finally gave birth to the child, but it was a vague blood bump and gave birth to a stillborn baby.

Lan Xin was hit hard and couldn't accept it, and since then she has become crazy, holding the little clothes she made all day long to look for children.

Liu Jun was also sad, and he really couldn't figure out why the crystallization of their love turned out to be a freak.

Watching Lan Xin torture herself, he was even more heartbroken.

However, at that time, he was facing tremendous pressure in the government, and the empress dowager and the pro-Liao forces held heavy power, and if they wanted to overthrow them and regain power, they had to plan and manage more.

He can't watch and accompany Lan Xin all the time.

One day, just as he was going to the early court, Lan Xin was found drowned in the pond of the Imperial Garden.

He was so grief-stricken that he drank all day to kill his sorrows, and felt that God was not fair, why did he punish him and Lan Xin and their poor children so much.

In the middle of the night, he always wandered in the harem and the imperial garden, like a lonely ghost, and gradually felt that he was going crazy like Lan Xin.

But one night, like a lonely ghost, carrying a pot of wine, he walked to the dark imperial garden, and sat by the pond thinking about Lan Xin. I want to be happy to go with her like this, maybe she is still waiting for her by the bridge.

Just when he wanted to jump, he heard the truth of everything......

The two palace maids passed by the pond and didn't see Liu Jun sitting in the dark, secretly talking about Lan Xin's death.

It turned out that everything was arranged by the Queen Mother and Empress Yelu Ligu.

They have been sending palace maids to poison food and make Lan Xin take chronic poison, causing the fetus to become a malformed stillbirth.

In the end, even the crazy Lan Xin did not let go, and while she was unattended, he sent someone to lead her to the edge of the pond and push her into the pond to drown.

What surprised him even more was that the two palace maids even mentioned that Liu Jun's own biological mother was also killed by the Queen Mother in the same way.

The inadvertent learning of these truths made Liu Jun almost collapse, and he sat in the dark in a daze, turning into a stone.

The two palace maids gossiped and walked away.

He sat all night.

The next morning, he walked up to the main hall with a drunken and full body of morning dew, and in the early morning, he issued an order to abolish the queen in front of the civil and military officials.

But no one agreed, and everyone knelt down to intercede, even strongly opposed.

In the end, even the Queen Mother and Queen Yelu Ligu rushed to the top of the main hall, and the trouble was unavoidable.

His dignity and authority as an emperor were challenged and threatened as never before.

The Queen Mother and the Empress denied their crimes, and the witnesses were killed.

Later, the envoys of the Liao State even threatened to send troops to the Northern Han Dynasty.

Liu Jun is weak, an emperor with no real power, a deep sense of powerlessness, and he can't protect the people he wants to protect.

He was disheartened and never set foot in the harem again.

He worked hard to govern the country wholeheartedly, and vowed to make the Northern Han a great power, get rid of the control of the Liao State, and put an end to the tragic fate of the Northern Han Emperor.

And he had no children in his life.

I didn't dare to think about this past for many years, but I didn't expect that it would still hurt him after many years.

Yun Moxi's words shocked and hurt him.

"Orchid ...... What I owe you is better to make up for now? He looked at the air and muttered to himself, two lines of tears flowing.

A few days later, Yi Xiechen led the ministers in the early dynasty, and suddenly the chief eunuch came in with the emperor's decree and read it: marry Liu Jiyuan and Yun Moxi, seal Yun Moxi as the crown princess, and the wedding date is set in a month later.

This decree is like water poured into a pot of hot oil, and it suddenly explodes.

The high-ranking and powerful ministers have played to state the pros and cons and analyze the pros and cons. The people were heartbroken, and the hall was wailing.

Di Xie Chen stood up, knowing that this matter can only be cut through the chaos with a quick knife, and he must act alone, otherwise it will be difficult to succeed.

The interests of Han and Liao have been inextricably linked for decades, and not only the countries rely on each other, but even the courtiers also collude with each other's interests. The people have been intermarrying and doing business for many years, and they have been communicating with each other.

The most terrible thing is to stick to the rules, and the way of forming alliances has become an immutable royal practice.

"The decree has been made, and the matter has been decided. There is no need for any more discussion, so let's retreat! He didn't bother to pay attention to the ministers and strode out first.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, please think twice......"

"This is a great trouble for the country......"

"Your Highness......"

The ministers wailed behind him, and he showed a sneer.

Some of these people are sincere for the country, and they are all afraid of affecting their own interests.

I am full of gratitude to Liu Jun in my heart. I didn't expect him to agree so quickly, and sure enough, Mo Xi guessed it.

Hurried back to the East Palace, Yun Moxi was reading.

"The end!" He couldn't wait to rush into the house, "Father has already given marriage!" ”

"Really?" She was also a little surprised.

"How do you know that my father will definitely agree?"

"I'm just guessing that although the emperor's tone is stern, there is no blame in his eyes. He also really loves and hopes for you. ”

"Now go and see my father, Emperor Shane." Took her hand and was about to go out.

The guards came in to report it, and the chief eunuch came.

The chief eunuch walked in, "Meet His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

"Please, but what's the matter with my father?"

"The emperor has already set off to leave the palace, and the emperor said: I have been feeling better recently and want to go to the palace to recuperate for a while. In the palace, except for the prince, he will not receive anyone, so that the courtiers are not allowed to disturb him. ”

The two of them knew in their hearts that Liu Jun didn't want the ministers to interfere, so that there was no room for turning around this matter, and it was also what he meant to take on this matter.

"The emperor also asked the servants to tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that what he can do for the prince can only go so far, and the rest will depend on His Highness to go on by himself."

"Thank you, father-in-law, please tell your father to recuperate. After the main palace is finished, I will go to the palace in a few days to thank you. ”

"The minions are gone!"

"Father-in-law walks slowly."

Watch the back of the chief eunuch disappear.
