The darkness is thick, above the sky, the clouds are all over, between the heaven and the earth, dull and abnormal, the wind blows through, quite miserable and miserable.

The torrential rain poured down and merged into the water of Ilo, and the lightning and thunder pierced the dark clouds from time to time, and suddenly pierced the glimmer of light, so that the people who were struggling in the torrential rain were chattering about the blessing of the Lord of the Four Seasons.

In the monstrous rain curtain, a magnificent holy city, like a beast hidden in the mountains, looms, it is the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty, the pearl Chang'an!

But at this moment, Chang'an seems a little lonely, with a hint of twilight.

Countless raindrops fell on the city and dripped on the streets, and before they could form a flood, they had already flowed away from the drainage facilities designed by the children of the Mo family, and also flowed into the Yiluo River, which was growing at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.

The rain curtain did not stop, and the sound of thunder roared, but these raindrops seemed to be not dripping in the city, but on Liu Yang, the emperor of Changle Palace.

He stood by the window of the palace with his hands in his hands, looking at the rain curtain that connected the sky and the earth, the thunder seemed to hit his heart, his face was full of solemnity, and the naked beauty behind him was also somewhat ignored by him.

Wind, frost, rain and snow!

This great power of nature is a great disaster for mankind, who always talk about transforming nature, but migrating with the diversion of rivers.

A flood or a snowstorm is enough to destroy a powerful empire, and a slight change in temperature can even make humans die like weeds.

The beauty walks by, the slender waist is like a plain, he is beautiful to the extreme, every move, every smile has infinite style, charming and enchanting, and there are all kinds of amorous.

This kind of beauty, I'm afraid that only supermodel beauties like Wang Wenjun, Xi Shi and Ji Lingjun can suppress him, and even Wang Wenjun's daughter is holding back because of Luo Bai, but between the two.

The only thing I regret is that this is a man.

The cool breeze blowing outside the window brought the coolness of the raindrops, giving him goosebumps on his creamy skin.

He was obviously a man, but he was more feminine than a woman, and there was a trace of magnetism in his voice, "Your Majesty, the concubine knows that you are worried that the torrential rain will cause floods, but how can we mortals interfere in the affairs of heaven?"

It's raining outside, and it's very cold, and if you are infected with the wind cold, the concubine is really heartbroken.

Close the window and go back to the bed.

The concubine finally returned to your side, and she was sad day and night, just wanting to be as close as possible to you, lest she leave your side one day. ”

Feeling the arms around him and the warm body temperature, Liu Yang sighed slightly, "Long'er is right, but don't worry, Father Emperor landslide, you won't be driven away again, no one can separate us anymore." ”

Long Qing leaned into Liu Yang's arms, and asked sadly: "Your Majesty, after you marry the queen, will you still be close to the concubine?"

The concubine is a man after all, and she can't give birth to a prince for you. ”

Listening to Long Qing's complaining and weeping voice, Liu Yang's heart was almost broken, he hugged his soft and boneless body tightly, and said: "Don't worry about Long'er, I won't touch her if I marry the queen, the world is full of vulgar fat and glamorous powder, how can anyone compare with Long'er."

As for the prince, I don't care, the left and right are just one succession.

Besides, there is no provision in the Han law that the queen must be a woman, and if you are the queen, you will be the queen mother in the future, who can say that it is not? ”

Long Qing leaned down in Liu Yang's arms, a hint of relief flashed in her charming eyes, and some smug eyes, especially when she heard the last few words, she bloomed with infinite brilliance.

Liu Yang closed the window heavily, hugged Long Qing to rest, and as the window fell, the eunuchs and palace ladies guarding the window all dispersed and closed the door of the palace.

"Knock knock."

A slightly anxious footsteps walked into the outer hall, it was a rather young chamberlain, wearing a robe, and a slightly old eunuch in the hall stepped forward and whispered: "Be quiet, Your Majesty and the nobles have rested!"

disturbed the nobles, carefully the flesh and skin. ”

The young chamberlain was shocked when he heard that the nobleman was here, and then said in a low and anxious voice: "Chang waiter, the prime minister came to ask to see His Majesty in the heavy rain, I'm afraid the matter is not small." ”

The old eunuch was also shocked that the prime minister actually asked to see His Majesty in this weather.

How much power does the prime minister of the Han have?

In the absence of General Sima, the prime minister can handle the affairs of the Han Dynasty alone, and only report to the emperor in the future.

The prime minister has the decision-making power over most affairs, and the emperor has both decision-making power and veto power, which is the result of the expansion of the minister's power.

If the emperor wants to monopolize power, he can either learn from Liu Dan to find a reason to vacate the prime minister, or learn from Liu Dan to find a reason to change the prime minister frequently.

delayed the prime minister's major event......

But the old eunuch thought for a moment, sighed slightly, and gritted his teeth and said: "Don't disturb Your Majesty and the nobles, if you offend the nobles, no one can save us."

If we offend the prime minister, as long as the noble person says a few words for us, Your Majesty will not treat us badly.

Let the prime minister wait. ”

In this palace, the words of the nobles are the holy decree, if you offend Your Majesty, someone can protect you, but if you offend the nobles, you can only pray for the blessing of the emperor of Suwang.

There were several horse-drawn carriages parked outside the palace.

In the heavy rain, the horses seemed extremely restless, constantly pacing, just like the mood of the prime minister, in the carriage, several important ministers of the state anxiously asked each other, "What's the matter?"

Why hasn't Your Majesty summoned me to the palace yet? ”

The prime minister was also very puzzled, "Although the dark clouds are pressing down on the city, it is noon, and Your Majesty should have just had a meal and is dealing with state affairs." ”

"yes!"

This is what these people are puzzled about, although because the dark clouds block all the light, but after all, it is daytime, it is office time.

No one could have imagined that the emperor had been turned red, and the eunuchs in the court were limited to obscenity and did not dare to disturb at all.

After a few more incense sticks, everyone's faces became very ugly, these people all belonged to the practical faction in the court, and each of them was highly intelligent.

"Hateful!

There must be a problem in the palace, and the news must not have reached His Majesty's ears, these dog eunuchs dare to cut off China and foreign countries!

Damn it! ”

The emperor's temperament is still clear, although sometimes it is not clear, but on the whole, it is just mediocre, and it is impossible for the prime minister to ask to see him, it must be that the eunuchs in the palace did not pass the news in.

"It's really inconvenient to not have a token to enter and exit the palace freely!"

Another person sighed, and this made everyone begin to sigh, since the death of the Great Sima General Bowang Wulie Marquis, no courtier can get the tooth card of free entry and exit of the palace.

"What now?

If you can't see Your Majesty today, will you keep waiting?

I don't know how many people die every moment, this is Guanzhong!

The flood will be followed by a great drought!

If the casualties are too heavy and the epidemic spreads, the country of abundance will be turned into a purgatory on earth in an instant. ”

The slightly younger official among them whispered, his face full of anxiety and dissatisfaction.

A terrible thing like a flood, not to mention a day, even a quarter of an hour, can roar and wash away a county town, and wipe away everything that mankind has worked so hard to build.

The flood is a petri dish for the plague, and after the great flood there will be a great plague, this is the experience of the ancestors, this is the most feared thing of the powerful, and the plague is really the equality of all beings.

Seeing this, the prime minister, who had not spoken, said slowly: "You can't wait like this, pass on my order, and immediately order the surrounding counties of Chang'an to avoid danger."

Immediately send messengers to the counties and counties, and ask them to deal with the floods in previous years, to send people to protect the farmland on both sides of the river, not to let the river burst, and to ensure food security in storage.

Otherwise, it's all over! ”

Once the river bursts, there will be problems with the grain stored in the granary in Guanzhong, and next year the people in Guanzhong will have to go to Kanto to beg for food, and I don't know how many people will starve to death.

"Prime Minister!"

"No!"

Several people looked at the prime minister in shock, the prime minister's power is indeed great, but not to such a degree, this is essentially a wartime act, the prime minister is mobilizing the soldiers of the Guanzhong counties to deal with possible disasters.

The prime minister smiled and said: "This prime minister is already preparing to submit his resignation to His Majesty the Emperor, is there any value in a prime minister who works against His Majesty everywhere?"

It's been a year.

The imperial court has not been able to accomplish one thing, and the emperor's opinion is always vetoed, and the emperor's meaning is not obvious?

The prime minister also has to thank the emperor for his mercy and leaving the life of the prime minister, and this time he took this opportunity to resign from the phase. ”

A wave has not settled, and a wave has risen!

The prime minister didn't want to do it anymore!

This was another heavy blow to everyone, but when they heard the prime minister's reason, they couldn't say anything, the confrontation between the prime minister and the emperor was indeed too fierce, and it was not a good thing for the imperial court.

After all, politics is the art of compromise, and unless one person can defeat the country, he is as great as King Lowan, and he still compromises greatly.

Everyone could only sigh slightly: "Why is this so? Why is that! ”

The prime minister made up his mind, but he seemed to have suddenly relaxed, and he kept singing against the emperor, and the pressure was very great, after all, the emperor held the power of life and death, and now that he had figured it out, the pressure suddenly became less.

"Let's go, let's get to work!"

The rumbling of the wheels was hidden in the howling wind, in the darkness of the black clouds, splashing, and then vanishing.

————

Lingyou five years, summer.

Heavy rain in Guanzhong, several days of non-stop, the river hangs upside down, the houses are fertile fields, and the eggs are in danger.

The prime minister and the minister faced the saint, but they were blocked at the palace gate and could not be seen, and the minister was stunned and said: "The chaos is imminent, and I can't see it, what can I do about it?" ”

The prime minister sighed and said: "The golden seal and purple ribbon, ten thousand stones are noble, but they are not as good as a eunuch. ”

The scholars were quite resentful and gave gold to comfort the prime minister.

In October, the prime minister went to the official and returned to his hometown, the inner palace Xian'an, the respect of the eunuchs, and the people of the time. - "The Book of Han: The Biography of the Eunuchs"
