When Lu Qiang heard Liu Wei ask, he felt a little drumming in his heart.

He can also see that Liu Wei has changed a bit in the past two years.

This kid, like Liu Hong, is very smart and has ideas, and he looks at things from a tricky angle.

According to Lu Qiang's thoughts, even if this kid is not a wise and martial figure, he can mix up to the same level as his father.

But Lu Qiang ignored an important point.

That is, during the formative years of these two emperors, the people who influenced their personalities were completely different.

It can even be said that it is two levels.

When the young Liu Hong entered the palace, his biological mother Empress Dowager Dong did not follow Liu Hong into the palace, and Liu Hong was fostered in the Empress Dowager Dou.

Of course, the Empress Dowager Dou didn't care much about Liu Hong, for the Empress Dowager Dou Miao, Liu Hong was just a chess piece for her, and Liu Hong herself was quite wary of the Empress Dowager Dou.

Therefore, when the young Liu Hong was growing up, he was less influenced by his relatives, of course, this also developed his dictatorial character, and at the same time he relied on eunuchs very much.

Compared with Liu Hong, although Liu Wei also suffered some political disasters, his predicament was completely two grades compared with Liu Hong.

Although Dong Zhuo is authoritarian, he at least maintains a certain respect for the royal family.

Although the courtiers did not want Liu Wei to be pro-government too early, in order to confront Dong Zhuo, they still supported the imperial power to a certain extent.

Moreover, compared with Liu Hong, who has been isolated since childhood, Liu Wei has a mother to rely on.

But in fact, it was this mother who was bad.

The growth of a teenager is most influenced by the people closest to him.

The influence of parents on their children is very important for their development.

Because Liu Hong died early, there was no way to have any impact on Liu Wei.

Therefore, on the road of Liu Wei's growth, the person who learned the most was his mother, Empress Dowager He.

Liu Hong's biological mother Dong and his mother Dou Miao, who later entered the palace as the emperor, although they are also women, but in the overall situation, because of their family background, they are relatively not so unbearable.

However, the inferior nature of the Empress Dowager He is too heavy.

To put it mildly, today's Empress Dowager He, in addition to being more charming, with bigger breasts and bigger buttocks...... There is nothing to be gained for the rest.

Careful, jealous, spicy, selfish...... These inferior nature are embodied in her to the extreme.

Without the influence of his father, he was accompanied by such a mother, who took care of his own affairs every day...... What kind of good influence do you say the growing Liu Wei can have?

The most important thing for a child's growth is the people around him, especially his parents.

In terms of jealousy and small belly, Liu Braided was successfully imperceptibly influenced by his mother.

At this moment, Lu Qiang, facing Liu Wei, felt a little chill in his heart.

He knew what Liu's intention was in asking about it.

Liu Jian's relationship with himself is no secret.

Obviously, this is Liu Wei testing himself.

Most of the eunuchs in the palace were people arranged by Lu Qiang, and at this point, even Dong Zhuo was difficult to interfere with.

So it's not difficult for Lu Qiang to know what is happening in the palace now.

At present, the most discussed thing in the DPRK and China is Dong Zhuo's recommendation of Liu Jian as the general of Fuyuan.

Although Lu Qiang trusted Liu Jian very much and didn't think that he would have any intentions to plot against the Han family, but now, he found that the Son of Heaven might not think so.

If one is not careful, it shows that his relationship with Liu Jian is too close, and he will move if he doesn't have a good head.

Facing Liu Bian's blazing gaze, Lu Qiang couldn't help but feel a little weak in his heart.

He had a quick brain teaser for a moment, then leaned down and coughed heavily.

"Uh-uh...... Ahem, ahem! ”

Seeing that Lu Qiang was coughing so badly, the two little eunuchs accompanying him hurriedly stepped forward to support Lu Qiang and soothe his chest.

Liu Wei showed a little surprise on his face: "Ah Weng, what's wrong?" ”

Lu Qiang coughed vigorously for a while, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief and said to Liu:

"Back to Your Majesty's words, the old slave is old, and he has no energy for a long time, and the cold weather in this winter has been recently, and the old slave only feels that his body is not as good as day by day...... There are many things in the palace that the old slave can no longer handle, and I am afraid that the deadline is approaching, and I will not be able to serve by His Majesty's side. ”

Liu Wei shook his head: "Ah Weng, what are you talking about?" I can't do without Ah Weng, and Ah Weng needs to preside over many things for me. ”

Lu Qiang shook his head: "I can't preside over it, the old slave is over sixty years old, and he is a person who is close to his life, but the old slave is a servant, but he has no heirs, and he can't go home to get grandchildren at such an age, dragging this half of his life in the eyes of His Majesty and the Queen Mother." ”

"The old slave also thought about it, it's time to let the virtuous, this inner palace master is no longer able to be handled by people like the old slave."

"The old slave saw the Queen Mother today, so I wanted to tell the Queen Mother about it, and asked the Queen Mother to allow the old slave to resign from the post of Da Changqiu."

"Please also ask Your Majesty and the Queen Mother to choose meritocracy again."

"In the future, the old slave can not stay by His Majesty's side to serve His Majesty, I only hope that His Majesty will be like the first emperor, be a sage and a wise man, so that the old slave will pay homage to His Majesty among the people, be protected by His Majesty, and be able to live this remnant life, which is the greatest blessing."

Liu Wei asked Lu Qiang whether he should appoint Liu Jian as the general of Fuyuan, but Lu Qiang talked about him left and right, and said that he was unwell and wanted to give up Da Changqiu's position...... This surprised Liu Wei.

However, even if Lu Qiang did not answer Liu Biao's question now, Liu Biao was still happy in his heart.

Regardless of whether Lu Qiang is really sick or fake, at least this old man can have such an awareness, which is a good thing.

If you had vacated your position earlier, wouldn't there be no such things?

Then I saw Liu Wei sigh, shook his head and said, "Ah Weng is the one who helped me and the Queen Mother when I was in the most crisis, how can I leave Ah Weng?" ”

"Ah Weng's current illness is just a minor illness, and it is not a big problem, I will find the best imperial doctor to treat Ah Weng."

"Ah Weng, take care of your body, and don't say anything about abandoning me."

Lu Qiang shook his head, and his tone was sad: "The old slave is reluctant to leave His Majesty, but there are no people in the world who have passed away, and the old slave's longevity is coming to an end, even if he wants to assist His Majesty, he is also powerless." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Qiang also raised his sleeve and wiped his tears.

Liu Wei's tone was also very heavy: "If this is the case, then I will definitely give Ah Weng the best treatment, so that Ah Weng can enjoy his old age in Chang'an City." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, old slave...... Woo woo, thank you for your kindness. ”

"Since it was summoned by his mother, then Ah Weng should not delay any longer, please go and see his mother quickly."

With the support of the two little eunuchs, Lu Qiang wept to the Son of Heaven, and then walked towards the palace.

Looking at Lu Qiang's back, the corners of Liu Biao's mouth couldn't help but hook up a smug smile.

"Old thing, old thing, you know each other."

Then, Liu Wei turned around and walked outside.

As he walked, he weighed in his mind who could take over the eunuch leadership in the imperial city instead of Lu Qiang.

After all, eunuchs are also a very powerful group, and they have always been the guardians and consolidators of imperial power.

With such a strong team, Liu Wei could not be entrusted to a person who had always listened to his mother's words.

Because he is the only emperor.

……

……

Lu Qiang entered the palace, and after seeing the Empress Dowager He, he said some things about the inner court, and then directly told the Empress Dowager He that he wanted to resign from Da Changqiu for retirement.

Empress Dowager He couldn't help but be shocked when she heard that Lu Qiang intended to resign.

"Why does Ah Gong have to resign from Da Changqiu's position so well? Who annoyed Ah Gong and made Ah Gong unhappy? ”

Lu Qiang said: "If you go back to Your Highness, the old slave has to be protected by His Royal Highness, and his identity is respected in Kyoto, how can anyone annoy the old slave?" It's just that the old slave is old, and he really can't afford the trivial affairs in this palace, so I implore His Royal Highness to let the old slave go back, so that the old slave can return to his hometown to live for the rest of his life. ”

Empress Dowager He didn't expect that Lu Qiang would say such a thing.

"It's good, why do you say you want to go back to retire? I can't do without Ah Weng's support here, who is offending you? ”

Lu Qiang shook his head vigorously and said: "The Queen Mother misunderstood, no one offended the old man, but the old man is really unable to continue to serve His Royal Highness now, and I ask His Highness for permission." ”

Empress Dowager He still knows Lu Qiang better, he knows that Lu Qiang is very loyal to the first emperor, as long as it is not a last resort, he will never easily leave their mother and son.

Since this old man said so, he must have his own difficulties.

However, seeing that the Han clan member he was looking for was about to arrive, Empress Dowager He couldn't say much to Lu Qiang about this matter for the time being, so he asked Lu Qiang to go back first.

As for the resignation of Da Changqiu, Empress Dowager He told Lu Qiang that she would consider it.

But after Lu Qiang left his palace gate, Empress Dowager He secretly sent someone to investigate the news and see what Lu Qiang resigned for.

Not long after Lu Qiang went out, the Han clan member who was invited by Empress Dowager He came to him.

This person is none other than Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng, who were recruited by Dong Zhuo to enter the court and are responsible for the revitalization of schools in the entire Guanzhong territory.

Although Liu Biao was recruited by Dong Zhuo into the court, he was one of the eight after all, and as one of the leaders of the scholars, it was naturally impossible for him to take Dong Zhuo too seriously.

It is impossible for him to think that Dong Zhuo is his master.

Liu Biao is a capable and intelligent person, so he just used Dong Zhuo as a pedal for him to re-enter the office and enter the court.

All he has to do is use Dong Zhuo to fulfill his ambitions and ambitions, that is, Xingxue!

After all, Liu Biao is almost fifty years old, and if his ambition to study is not completed in this time period, I am afraid that there will be no chance in the future.

Sure enough, after Liu Biao entered Chang'an City, he soon relied on his reputation and the identity of the Han family to catch the line of the Empress Dowager He.

Moreover, he can indeed give a lot of good ideas to Empress Dowager He.

After all, this Liu Zhonglang will also be a big man in history who competes with Cao Cao, Yuan Shu and others.

Under his rule, Jingzhou is a land of abundance.

In the eighteen years of Liu Biao's reign, Cao Cao could not touch Jingzhou in the slightest, and it was not until after Liu Biao's death that Cao Cao had the ability to take Jingzhou.

Therefore, in terms of political literacy, especially in terms of Shoucheng, Liu Biao's ability is very strong.

Empress Dowager He told Liu Biao about Liu Jian's desire to be a general of Fuyuan.

Although Liu Biao is almost fifty years old, his appearance is really very handsome, he is tall, his clothes are good, and he has a long hair that reaches to his chest under his chin, and he has the style of a noble person.

After Empress Dowager He finished speaking, Liu Biao quickly analyzed the situation.

"Back to His Royal Highness, if you look at it according to the ministers, the position of General Fuyuan is indeed not easy to hand over to Liu Deran, after all, the things involved are too wide, if it really doesn't get to that point, the court had better not let this power go easily."

Empress Dowager He nodded and said, "Then I will let Braids and the Central Secretary of State directly refute Dong Zhuo's performance?" ”

Liu Biao said: "This matter should be a deal reached privately between Dong Xiangguo and General Zuo, the court directly refuted Xiangguo's performance, in fact, there is not much loss to Xiangguo himself, but Liu Deran naturally will not give up easily, I think he will definitely force Dong Xiangguo to play again, the minister feels that this matter is not a refutation once will be over." ”

"The key still depends on General Zuo's attitude, and then it depends on the determination of His Majesty and His Royal Highness."

Empress Dowager He said: "Our determination? What is your Majesty's determination now? ”

Liu Biao said: "It depends on whether Your Majesty and His Royal Highness have the determination to dare to fall out with Liu Deran in this matter." ”

Empress Dowager He snorted coldly: "Why don't you dare? He Liu Jian used to be just a son of the border, thanks to the wrong love of the first emperor, he was carried into the clan, he is now full-fledged, he dares to calculate the royal family, I categorically can't let him get his wish. ”
