Chapter 37 Queen Mother, you are not going to die soon! [Please read and ask for monthly votes]

If you don’t understand, just ask.

This is the quality a good child should have.

Therefore, as soon as doubts arose in Cao Ang's heart, he immediately put them into words.

"I dare to ask Queen Mother, if you have such means, why did you behave so badly in the previous palace changes?"

"He was indecisive, vacillating left and right, actually thinking about reconciling both sides, so that he lost the initiative, which resulted in the death of General He."

"Before I met you today, I really didn't expect you to have such means. I thought you were more or less a fool."

"you!"

Queen Mother He pointed at Cao Ang with trembling fingers.

"What do you know?!"

"Do you think things are as simple as you think? Just because I am He Jin's sister, so he came to me and asked me to kill the eunuchs, and I have to obey his opinions completely?"

"After all the eunuchs were killed, the entire dynasty became under his influence. If one day he wants to be the emperor, what should I do?"

"Whose power should I use to check and balance him at that time, and where should I put my son?"

Queen Mother He really wanted to use a few curse words.

Cao Ang's words really poked at her scars, tearing open the wounds she had managed to sew up, exposing her bloody flesh.

Queen Mother He must also admit that this was the worst decision she made in her ups and downs over the years since she entered the palace.

As the woman with the highest status in the harem, the Queen Mother only relied on her right and left hands if she wanted to exert influence on the outer court.

One hand is the eunuch group.

The other hand is the influence of foreign relatives.

Only when both her left and right hands are healthy and have a certain degree of strength can she put the will of the Queen Mother above the court and realize her wish to enjoy eternal wealth.

But just a wave of operations before the palace change shattered all the good situations into pieces.

General He Jin, his elder brother, was ambushed by eunuchs and hacked to death in the palace. His younger brother He Miao also died.

As for the remaining left hand, the eunuch group was wiped out by the army led by the foreign court. At this moment, I only have a few green onions on hand, and I don't know how many of them were planted by Dong Zhuo.

Overnight, everything collapsed.

After losing her left and right hands, she instantly became deaf and blind, and even the most basic information channels were lost.

At least as the Queen Mother, she had no idea what was happening in the outer court these days.

I only vaguely knew that Dong Zhuo had made a big move, and it seemed that there was quite a commotion. The most important thing was that the gates of the North and South Palaces leading to the outside world were heavily guarded.

No matter entering or exiting, you need to go through questioning.

The tension in the atmosphere suddenly reached this point, which is enough to show that Dong Zhuo had some ideas, and it seemed that the target of the attack was directed at himself and his son Liu Bian.

In addition, after losing the power in her hands, Queen Mother He could no longer guarantee her own safety.

After all, she is just a delicate woman.

Sometimes identity is very useful, but sometimes it is useless. If there is another palace change, an ordinary soldier can kill her with one knife.

In short, the consequences of her poor decision-making before the palace change were quite serious, causing her to lose almost everything.

Isolated like an island.

But Queen Mother He also felt very wronged!

Anyway, she doesn't think that she should bear the blame. All the actions she takes are based on their own reasons and are in her own interests.

First of all, compared to the identity of He Jin's sister, her first title was the Queen Mother of the Han Dynasty.

The interests of mother and son, Liu Bian, are the number one interest, and this is the basis for determining her unlimited prosperity and wealth in the future.

This is the fundamental difference from He Jin as a man.

Therefore, when He came in to find her and said that he wanted to kill the eunuch, Queen Mother He had to consider one thing first.

That is, all the eunuchs were beheaded. If He Jin's ambitions expand in the future and he wants to become emperor, what will he do to punish him?

At the same time, after losing the left hand of the eunuch group, Queen Mother He had to rely more on her remaining right hand.

This would lead to an unlimited increase in the voice of the relatives in the internal and external affairs. At that time, any decisions that the Queen Mother wanted to make might have to be approved by her brother.

Can such an order be issued?

In addition, there is the most important point.

That was He Jin's own vacillation.

This thing really troubled Queen Mother He.

The Ten Constant Attendants did not belong to the power of the Queen Mother, but she came to the door to ask for help when she saw that there was danger of death.

I didn't know how serious the trouble was at that time, so out of various considerations, I still accepted these people and gave them shelter.

But when his brother came to the door, his attitude was very wavering. At one moment he said that he wanted to kill all the eunuchs, and at another he said that Yuan Shao had forced him to come.

It is completely unclear what his thoughts are, whether to kill or not to kill.

Thinking like this, Queen Mother He felt that the conflict between the eunuchs and her brother should not escalate to the point of endless conflict. If she could mediate the situation, she might be able to achieve a stable and balanced state.

Therefore, her brother's attitude seriously misled her judgment.

If it had been concluded that there would be no end to the fight between the two parties, Queen Mother He would choose to throw out some of the most evil eunuchs and preserve the remaining ones as her own strength.

In this way, all the goals have been achieved, and at least the anger of all parties can be calmed. It is not imperfect.

However, nothing happened.

The Queen Mother He had no idea that the power between the two parties was so bad that the eunuch actually took the initiative and killed her brother first.

Just because I didn't expect this, I lost everything.

…

To sum up, Queen Mother He felt that she was wronged. She obviously had no responsibility on her own body, but in the eyes of people like Cao Ang and others, she took all the blame.

Ridiculous for some young boys.

What do they know about politics?

I think what I see is everything, but little do I know that the decisions we make are all based on politics and interests.

It's just that the environment has changed and things have developed unexpectedly, which has led to mistakes.

All of a sudden, Queen Mother He's mind was filled with all kinds of distracting thoughts, and she didn't know how many thoughts came out.

I finally got rid of it.

Then he said angrily: "This is the third time I have asked you, how did you come in from outside the palace?"

Cao Ang had a slight smile on his face.

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, I took Dong Zhuo's route and said that I wanted to see the scenery of the palace, so I was able to sneak in."

Queen Mother He's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard this.

Somewhat excitedly, he grabbed Cao Ang's sleeve.

"Then can you take someone out?"

Cao Ang shook his head.

"Definitely not. You can still have an excuse when you come in, but if you bring two people from the palace when you go out, anyone will be suspicious, right?"

The excitement that had just aroused was immediately extinguished.

He loosened his sleeves in great disappointment.

Then Queen Mother He asked with confusion: "What exactly happened outside? Why are the two palaces in the north and south under martial law?"

Cao Ang glanced at the Queen Mother, who was still confused and ignorant at the moment, and looked at her face like a delicate flower.

I couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Dong Zhuo and the others are planning to kill the Queen Mother!"

Queen Mother He was shocked!
