The problem in the court had been resolved, so Liu Bei turned around and saluted the young emperor Liu Xie and the Empress Dowager Dong behind him.
"The ministers have reached an agreement. The rebels of the Yuan family are audacious. They know their mistakes and do not correct them. They insist on going their own way and die unjustly. The general Liu Bei has asked the emperor for an edict to lead the world's loyal ministers and righteous men to attack the traitor Yuan family and his servants. He vows to uproot them.
, kill them all to repay the kindness of the late emperor, Your Majesty, please allow Your Majesty!"
The little emperor Liu Xie blinked and remembered what Empress Dowager Dong had said to him before - no matter what Liu Bei asks you, you only need to say one word.
"allow."
His childish voice sounded in the court hall.
This childish voice has no actual effect, but the nominal symbol is indispensable.
One word or sentence from him can make Liu Bei's actions extremely regular.
After the little emperor's approval, the full power to quell Yuan's second rebellion was entrusted to Liu Bei, who would take charge of the matter as a general.
With the rightful title in hand, no matter what he wants to do, he no longer needs to "ask for instructions" from the little emperor.
After the officials withdrew, Liu Bei was retained by Empress Dowager Dong to consult him on the matter.
"This matter is all entrusted to you. The wealth and life of all of us are also in your hands. You must be careful and don't let the Yuan family's traitors succeed."
"The Queen Mother, please rest assured that I am fully confident that I can put down the second rebellion of the Yuan family's traitors."
Liu Bei said respectfully: "Although the rebels of the Yuan family have the reputation of being the fourth generation and the third prince, they have lost their rightful reputation. They are thieves. Since ancient times, no thieves have been able to succeed. I will do my best to defeat all the thieves and bandits."
Leave no chance for them to win!"
"In this case, I will wait for the good news here."
After receiving Liu Bei's promise, Empress Dowager Dong felt a little relieved - after the coup was successful, the only one left that she felt was more reliable was Liu Bei's.
Both Jian Shuo and her incompetent nephew were a little too indulgent, indulged in sensuality, and didn't know what they were doing. It was really unreliable.
Fortunately, Liu Bei was a really capable man. Liu Hong had been confused all his life, but when he died, he chose one of the best and capable people to stay in Luoyang.
Very beautiful.
Because of her trust and reassurance in Liu Bei, Empress Dowager Dong also relaxed a lot during this period. In addition to daily discipline of the young emperor Liu Xie, she also sent people to collect some folk jugglers outside the palace and let them perform in the palace all day long.
, make yourself feel relaxed and happy.
If you get tired of watching sideshows, ask people to collect some craftsmen from the people who know how to fight cocks and dogs, and watch them organize cockfighting and dog fighting competitions every day, and you will have endless fun.
If you are tired of seeing all this, go to your own palace to play with the precious decorations and clothes that you have sent people to collect everywhere, dress yourself up in a beautiful way, and admire yourself in the bronze mirror, which feels a bit like "I am talking about being a teenager"
.
Those who didn't know thought she was dead.
Anyway, her life was very comfortable, so comfortable that she was almost in ecstasy.
In addition, the most pleasurable thing for her was to dress up and go to the cold palace of the He family to taunt the He family. She sneered at her and watched her wail like a helpless dog. Empress Dowager Dong felt that she
Even the soul has been sublimated.
Even Liu Hong had never enjoyed such a comfortable and happy life when she was still alive. Now that she has enjoyed it, she is very satisfied and very concerned about whether this kind of life can continue.
Yuan's second rebellion was a major uncertainty, and she could not accept that her good life was ended by this uncertainty.
Therefore, she must and can only rely on Liu Bei.
Also after the dispersion of the dynasty, Xun Shuang left the palace with a heavy heart. On his way home, he met Ma Rixi, so the two walked together and chatted while walking.
"I finally understand what it means to be impermanent. In just over a month, I became the powerful person in the Han Dynasty. The situation has changed so fast that many people can't react."
Xun Shuang raised his eyebrows.
"It's not too abrupt, right? Before that, he was the founding general. He was so powerful that he was among the top in Luoyang City. Aren't you happy? The Ancient Literature School has finally turned around."
"Of course I'm happy, but I just didn't react a little bit."
Ma Rixi sighed: "The younger generation who has been watching you grow up suddenly walks in front of you and is right in front of you. It's not an easy feeling."
Xun Shuang nodded slowly.
"That's it."
Ma Rixi turned to look at Xun Shuang.
"It's you, Ci Ming. During this period, you have always been the first to stand up and echo some opinions. I heard that many people in the court were talking privately about you being too eager to get attached and not having the demeanor of an elder at all.
We know you and know that you won't do this, but you should also pay attention to yourself and don't always do things you shouldn't do. Otherwise, your reputation will not be good, which will affect your reputation and Xun's reputation. Originally,
You have clan members working under your command, so what do you have to worry about?"
Xun Shuang was stunned for a moment, but his expression behind him was somewhat embarrassing.
"What you said is, what you said is, naturally I would not have such thoughts, but I didn't expect that someone would treat me like this..."
"Once he gained momentum, many people stared at him. Naturally, many people who were close to him were also stared at."
Ma Rixi smiled bitterly and said: "Recently, there are not just one or two people who come to me for help. They don't like eunuchs and don't want to associate with the noble disciples like Dong Zhong, so don't they have no choice but to work for me? But there are so many people there.
How come they can do it so easily?"
Xun Shuang had something on his mind and nodded repeatedly, not paying much attention to what Ma Rixi was struggling with.
This guy, after making so much money, is still pretending in front of me?
Xun Shuang was very unhappy.
After returning home, Xun Shuang found his brother Xun Su, who had not yet returned to his hometown, and confided in him his bitterness.
"I really never expected that there would be a situation like this today. Why did Liu suddenly reach this point? How did he suddenly become famous? How did the Yuan family and the He family suddenly collapse? Isn't this a little too fast?
"
Xun Su looked depressed.
"This is really not my brother's problem. Who could have expected such a thing beforehand? I think some of what the Luoyang people said before are right. Liu is a man of great luck. If you go against him, you won't be able to do it."
It will end well, no matter who it is."
Xun Shuang became even more depressed.
"I didn't go against him before, but I didn't agree to marry him. Could it be that he wants...me...I always feel that Liu is resenting me."
"Hate you?"
Xun Su said doubtfully: "Brother, I don't think so. Wen Ruo and Gongda both work under him. They are both his confidants and have been entrusted with important responsibilities by him. Especially Gongda, they have both entered the Shangshu table. It stands to reason.
He said, Liu will not bear grudge against Xun family no matter what."
"Then why everyone else has been promoted, but I am still the servant?"
Xun Shuang worriedly said: "Although I don't care about this, everyone else has been promoted, but I have not been promoted. How will other people view this matter? And except for Wen Ruo and Gongda, he has not been promoted again.
Instead of summoning the Xun clan members, they summoned Chen Qun, the son of the Chen family, and Zhong Yaopi, the son of the Zhong family, into the General’s Mansion, and both of them were actually killed!"
"That's true, but brother, if you had listened to me earlier, you wouldn't have thought so much, and there wouldn't be so many things to do now."
Xun Su sighed: "Gongda also suggested the same thing at that time, but you didn't listen. You always had too many doubts. I don't think this situation is a good thing."
When Xun Shuang heard this, he felt extremely irritable.
"What's the use of talking about this now? How do I know that the Yuan family and the He family are actually going to rebel? The dignified generals and the dignified Situ secretly recruit foreign soldiers to rebel! Is this kind of stupid thing a normal person can do? OK now
Oh, they made a fool of themselves, and they got me to do the same thing! Is this my fault?!"
He talks hard, but his heart is not that hard. This is how Xun Shuang feels now.
Xun Shuang has actually regretted it for a long time.
But he couldn't accept this fact.
He was unwilling to accept it, including the fact that he regretted it.
