Liu Zheng tensely and gave an order to Zhou Cang.

Although Zhou Cang did not understand what the meaning of Liu Zheng at this time asked him to lead hundreds of people to Beigong to arrest the emperor's son, he did not hesitate at all and immediately took the order.

"Yes, Mr. Qu, I will immediately catch that person as you ordered!"

Zhou Cang immediately took the hundreds of people around him and ran to the outside of Deyang Palace. From here, there was a total of seven miles to the Beigong where the concubines and the emperor's descendants lived. Even if he walked over quickly, it would take a stick of incense.

However, this is nothing to Liu Zheng. He can wait here for a mere stick of incense, but Emperor Ling of Han has not yet captured it.

Two rows of guards ran out on both sides of the Deyang Palace. These guards were all Yulin soldiers in the palace. The number of them was only 200.

After a simple resistance with Liu Zheng and other Yellow Turban troops, they were killed by the Yellow Turban troops.

Emperor Ling of Han was forced to hide in Deyang Hall by the Yellow Turban Army, and firmly held the door of the hall, hoping to make the final resistance.

However, this simple resistance was nothing to Liu Zheng and his more than a thousand soldiers and horses. He quickly used the stone pillars outside the man to force the gate of the hall to break through.

In less than a cup of tea, Liu Zheng rushed into the Deyang Palace and caught Emperor Ling of Han who was sitting on the dragon throne.

At this time, Emperor Ling of Han was so scared that his legs were weak and panicked. He looked at Liu Zheng who was walking in from outside the hall, with a terrified face and fat body. Because of his trembling, the flesh on his face was trembling.

The greasy body looks like a fat pig. This body alone looks at least 200 kilograms.

In ancient times, only a wealthy family could have such good health. The emperor was even more at the peak of wealth and honor. Not only did he lack exercise, but he also liked to eat, drink and have fun.

His natural body shape has been repeated and his obesity has made him look like a pig.

It is precisely because he is too fat that Emperor Ling of Han never thought of escaping by himself. With his figure, if no one carries him, he will not be able to run.

"You...who are you? Why did you come to the palace? Where did my army? Where did General He Jin die?"

Although Emperor Ling of Han, who was slumped on the dragon throne, had already lost his soul, he forced himself to calm down and asked tentatively in a slight trembling voice at Liu Zheng who was walking in from outside the hall.

Liu Zheng looked at Emperor Ling of Han and did not speak.

In fact, Liu Zheng did not have any disgust for the Han Dynasty. On the contrary, he loved the Han Dynasty very much. Why? Because his surname is Liu.

Although he was not a person from this era, he was from two thousand years later. But he was a Han nationality. He was a Han nationality and also had a surname of Liu. He had a great sense of identity with the Han Dynasty.

But he had no fondness for Emperor Ling of Han.

Why do you say so? Because Emperor Ling of Han made little contribution to the Han Dynasty. On the contrary, the reason why the Han Dynasty went to the end was due to the actions of Emperor Ling of Han.

Although the demise of the Han Dynasty was a component of natural disasters, a large part of the reason was man-made disasters, and the main source of man-made disasters was Emperor Ling of Han.

The system of selling official positions and titles during his reign was notoriously bad. In this dynasty, there was a matter of selling official positions and titles before, but the purpose was to solve huge financial difficulties, and the scale was limited and the official positions were very low.

During the reign of Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, although the country was in decline, external troubles were not serious and the country was not consumed much. To be honest, this extraordinary measure would not be taken to increase the country's income. Liu Hong did not hide his idea of ​​looking for money to satisfy the greed of himself and the eunuchs.

As long as you can afford money, you can sell all kinds of official positions in the court. Even later, all the officials in the court, including the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers, had to be purchased with money. Some people even if they were enthroned, they would not be able to get on the throne normally without paying enough money.

Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, clearly stipulated that the previous system of filial piety and integrity was still effective, with half or one-third of the candidates being selected based on virtue. For those with good character and reputation, in addition to enjoying discounts, if they cannot afford so much money at once, they can also pay a part of the down payment first, and even take office first and then pay the fee, but the price must be doubled.

Regarding "Feique", a special market was opened in a place called Xiyuan in the palace city. The court publicly announced that it could spend money to buy positions in departments such as Hu Ben and Yulin under Guannei Hou to Guangluxun; the regulations for selling officials were: the price of local officials was twice as high as that of court officials, while the price of county officials was different; the promotion of officials must also be paid at the price.

Those who seek official positions can estimate the bid, and those who bid the highest bid can win the bid. In addition to a fixed price, they can also increase or decrease at any time based on the value of the person seeking official positions and the property they own.

Generally speaking, the price of an official position is calculated based on the annual salary of an official. For example, the price of an official position with an annual salary of 2,000 shi is 20 million yuan, and the price of an official position with an annual salary of 400 shi is 4 million yuan, which means that the price of an official position is 10,000 times the annual income of an official.

Although Duan Yan, Zhang Wen and others made great contributions and had a high reputation, they all paid enough money before they became the public. Later, they became more and more serious. In the future, one-third or one-quarter of the official position price must be paid for the transfer of officials, promotions or new officials.

In other words, an official must first pay a legal income of more than 25 years when he takes office. Many officials are frightened and abandoned their official position because they are unable to pay such a high amount of "official fees".

Emperor Ling of Han acted like this, and the entire cadre team was in chaos, shaking the foundation of the country's rule.

Even the emperor himself is greedy for money, not to mention the various officials under his command.

Many times, those rich people spend money to buy an official position such as a county magistrate or a county magistrate. In order to make back the money he spent, they will definitely plunder the people's wealth and ointment.

It will inevitably cause complaints and the lives of the people will become more and more difficult.

The source of all this is naturally Emperor Ling of Han. Why did Zhang Jiao respond to the uprising in a short period of time be that the resentment that had accumulated over decades erupted at this moment.

If these are not enough to destroy the Han Dynasty, then the other decision made by Emperor Ling of Han would be even more stupid.

The state pastoral system was restored. A few years later, Emperor Ling of Han accepted the suggestion of Liu Yan, a relative of the Han Dynasty, reset the state pastor and abolished the governor system. It was known in history that the history was abolished. Liu Yan was appointed as the governor of Yizhou and Huang Wan was appointed as the governor of Yuzhou. In the same year, he also appointed the minister of the clan Liu Yu as the governor of Youzhou.
