If Zhang Rang was still a little hesitant before, now that Liu Bei has confessed to him, of course he will not hesitate anymore.

For the sake of his life and future wealth, Zhang Rang decided to give it a go.

"Is one serving enough?"

Zhang Rang said in a low voice: "It's not enough to just let the Prince Association ascend the throne, right?" Should the position of the queen of the Ho family be retained? If it is retained, He is the mother-in-law of the prince's association, is this acceptable? ”

"That's right, but it's scrapped...... Isn't it a big impact? ”

Dong Zhong worried: "I'm worried that people all over the world will talk about it, and when the time comes, people will be panicked, and the court will not end well." ”

"He doesn't cultivate virtue, although she is the mother of the country, she has never had a good reputation, even if she is abolished, no one will feel sorry for her."

Zhang Rang despised Dong Chong's lust in his heart, and then said slowly: "Since you want to let the Prince Association ascend the throne, you should eradicate all the forces of the He clan and uproot the He clan, and there can be no omissions at all, what do you say?" ”

Dong Zhong lowered his head and thought about it, feeling that it made sense.

"No matter what the situation is, first get the righteous name in your hands, as long as the edict of the Son of Heaven is in hand, the righteous name is in hand, and I am not afraid that the He family will be able to turn the sky upside down!"

"Exactly."

"In that case, the only problem now is Liu Xuande's ......"

"Is it just Liu Xuande? Jian Shuo has already decided to support the Prince's Association? ”

Zhang Rang was a little surprised: "I haven't heard any news before. ”

Jian Shuo agreed.

Dong nodded: "Jian Shuo was used by the Son of Heaven to fight against He Jin, he has long been on the same page, he does not support the Prince Association, Jian Shuo can't even save his life, he naturally agreed, but Liu Xuande, the Queen Mother said that his attitude is just not against it, not support, without his support, it is difficult for us to succeed." ”

"You leave this to me, and I'll convince him."

Zhang Rang nodded and said: "Let's settle the edict and the matter of persuading the Son of Heaven first, with these, I don't worry about not being able to persuade Liu Xuande." ”

"You?"

Dong Zhong was puzzled: "Can you persuade Liu Xuande?" ”

"I had some friendship with him in the past, and you can all persuade him, so it's okay for me to add a code at the end, right?"

Zhang Rang patted his chest: "Leave it to me, let's find a way to persuade the Son of Heaven first." ”

"Okay, then take advantage of the awakening of the Son of Heaven and try it first."

Zhang Rang and Dong Zhong returned to the dormitory together, and as soon as they entered, they saw that the Empress Dowager Dong was trying to persuade Liu Hong to change Liu Xie.

But Liu Hong's meaning still seems to have not changed.

"Mother, don't talk about it, Xie's age is too young, he can't be the emperor."

"Then if you're gone, how can I keep the association? Don't you love your son? Don't you want your son to live? ”

"Of course I wanted to, so I arranged for a lot of people to protect him."

Liu Xie saw Zhang Rang and Dong Zhong who walked in.

"Dong Chong's control of the soldiers and horses in Luoyang City can protect the safety of the association, Zhang Rang has the secret agents of the East Garden, who can spy on any news that is unfavorable to the association, Jian Shuo has 30,000 troops in the West Garden, which is used to protect the association, and Xuande...... Xuande ...... He will definitely be able to protect the association. ”

"You can't guarantee that!"

Empress Dowager Dong sighed: "Waiting for the debate to become the emperor, no matter if He Jin is still there, He is the queen mother, she is the mother of the debate, she has always been vicious, she has always hated the association, even if the debate is willing to protect the association, how can she keep it?" Aren't you afraid that Empress Lu poisoned Liu Ruyi again?

Let's talk about these people you left behind, they can keep themselves, besides, you are gone, you are the emperor, the Yuan clan of the He clan is a murderer, and you hold the name of righteousness, how do you want these people from you to protect the association? They're going to be eradicated one by one!

In the end, I was left with a lonely old woman, I cried all over the world, cried dry tears and broke my throat, how can I keep the association? They must kill Xie, I can only stand in front of Xie's front and die before him, what else can I do? ”

Empress Dowager Dong wiped her tears one by one.

"I think your child is so ruthless, and I won't worry about watching your old mother and little son die! When the time comes, the three of us will meet underground, how will you face me and your youngest son? ”

When Liu Hong heard this, his face was extremely ugly.

Then there was another violent cough, Zhang Rang and the others hurriedly came up to calm him, and finally calmed him down, and Liu Hong was in a state of anger again.

Zhang Rang saw that the heat was almost over, and quickly knelt in front of Liu Hong.

"Your Majesty, the minister hasn't said anything before, but now, the minister can't stand it, although the minister is dull, but he can also see that if you choose the prince to defend the succession to the throne, and the He family will be in power, then the prince association will definitely die, if you choose the prince to succeed to the throne, and the He family loses power, then the prince will definitely be preserved!"

Liu Hong's face changed.

"You...... What do you mean? ”

"Your Majesty, the matter has come to this, can't you see through it?"

Zhang Rang wiped a handful of tears: "With the queen's ruthless heart, you can poison Wang Meiren back then, once you are not there in the future, you will inevitably try to kill the prince association and eradicate all the troubles.

If the ministers lose, the ministers will definitely die, and the prince's association will also definitely die, is this what Your Majesty would like to see? If the ministers win, how should the prince deal with himself? With the fall of the He family, how should the prince sit on the throne? Is this the ending His Majesty would like to see? ”

Liu Hong listened, lay on the hospital bed and stared, and did not make a sound for a long time.

Dong Zhong wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zhang Rang, who motioned him not to say anything with his eyes.

Empress Dowager Dong looked at Zhang Rang and didn't say anything.

Liu Hong thought quietly for a while alone, and finally sighed.

"Ah Gong, back then, I wanted to abolish the He family, and you stopped me...... If you hadn't stopped me...... How did we get to where we are today? How can there be so much annoyance? ”

When Zhang Rang heard this, he cried loudly and kowtowed to the ground in front of Liu Hong.

"Your Majesty should know that the reason why the He family can get the favor of His Majesty is because he spent a lot of money, and the ministers were blinded by money when they saw the money, so they begged His Majesty not to abolish the He family's posteriority, and every time I think of it, I feel ashamed of His Majesty's kindness!

Today's situation is all the fault of the ministers, it is the ministers who have failed the trust of His Majesty, and have done such an ugly thing, the ministers hate themselves back then, and they also hate He to the bones, as long as Your Majesty orders, the ministers are willing to use their lives to make up for the mistakes of the year! ”

Empress Dowager Dong and Dong Chong both looked at Zhang Rang, who was kneeling on the ground and crying and talking, with surprised eyes.

Good guy, you said all these things in front of Liu Hong, you Zhang Rang is indeed a man without eggs.

Liu Hong also turned his head effortlessly because he was too surprised, and looked at Zhang Rang steadily.

"Do you mean that?"

"Your Majesty, the matter has come to this, how can the minister not be serious?"

Zhang Rang burst into tears and said: "The minister was favored by His Majesty, but he was blinded because of greed, and he mistakenly believed in the traitorous villain, causing His Majesty to suffer such suffering. ”

Liu Hong looked at Zhang Rang for a long time, then let out a long sigh, and then stretched out his hand.

"Mother."

"Hey."

Empress Dowager Dong held Liu Hong's hand.

"Am I dying?"

"Huh?"

Empress Dowager Dong was stunned on the spot.

Zhang Rang and Dong Chong were also stunned on the spot because they were too surprised.

Did anyone leak the news?

They don't know who can leak the news under their noses, and if they can leak the news, they just collectively decide to do it.

"Mother, my own body, I know it, I can feel it, I can ...... Can't recover ......"

Liu Hong blinked his eyes and said slowly: "It's useless for you to lie to me, my body is my own, how can I not know?" Grandpa, what you said is a bit of a person's dying words and good words, hehehehehe......"

Liu Hong's laughing voice was like a sound pulled out of a dilapidated bellows, which was hard to hear.

Zhang Rang was shocked and cried again.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Your Majesty! The minister is guilty! The minister is guilty!! ”

As he cried, he slammed his head on the ground, making muffled noises.

"Alright, alright."

Liu Hong waved his hand weakly: "Now there is no point in saying this, the wood is already in the boat, what else is there to say, Ah Gong, do you think that if I let Debate inherit the throne, then Xie will definitely die, right?" ”

Zhang Rang's eyes rolled.

"The minister only knows that the queen will try her best to kill the prince's association, and the minister will do his best to protect the prince's association, no matter what, the minister will die before the prince's association, so it will live up to Your Majesty's favor!"

Dong Chong didn't know where to get his impatience, and knelt down with Zhang Rang.

"Your Majesty, the ministers will also protect the Prince's Association with their lives, if they want to hurt the Prince's Association, the ministers will definitely die before the Prince's Association! Never let the Prince's Association be harmed before the ministers wait! ”

Empress Dowager Dong looked at this situation and instantly realized what she should do.

"One or two of them are going to die before the association, so what else do I have to say as a lonely old woman? Emperor, don't worry, my lonely old woman is the last person to protect the association, and I will definitely die before the association, so you can rest assured. ”

After speaking, Empress Dowager Dong began to sob.

Faced with such a situation, Liu Hong only felt that an extremely sad emotion hit his heart, making him extremely uncomfortable.

"You ...... Alas......"

After a long sigh, Liu Hong spoke.

"Even if I can promise you, how can the courtiers promise you? After all, Xie is a concubine, not a concubine, and he is very young, which of those courtiers who pay attention to the eldest son will agree to you? How will the association sit on this throne at that time? ”
