Chapter 530 Changes in Chang'an

When Tian Yannian saw that no one was speaking, he stepped forward, left his seat and pressed the hilt of his sword, saying:

"The late emperor entrusted the young orphans to the general and entrusted the Han Dynasty to the general because the general was loyal and capable and could stabilize the Liu family."

"Now the discussion in Chang'an is like a cauldron of water boiling, and the country may even overturn because of this... The posthumous title of the emperor of the Han Dynasty often contains the word 'filial piety', in order to preserve the world for a long time and enable the ancestral temple to continue offering sacrifices."

"If the Han royal family stopped offering sacrifices, the general would be dead, so why would he have the nerve to meet the late emperor underground?"

"Now that the Han Dynasty is in danger, we are gathering for a meeting today. If you have any objections, you can try a certain sword."

When Huo Guang heard this, he blamed himself and said: "What the great Sinong said is true. The world is harassed and disturbed, and we should just bring order to the chaos..."

As soon as Huo Guang said this, the ministers present still didn't understand the situation. In order to save their lives, they all began to accuse Liu He of the crime he had committed.

In just half a day, the princes accused Liu Heluo of nearly a thousand crimes.

Among those who attended the rally, only Bingji and Du Ling remained silent.

Tian Yannian wanted to force the two of them to express their stance, but was stopped by Huo Guang.

Yang Chang finally said: "The fate of all the people in the world is in the hands of the general. They only wait for the general's order."

Huo Guang nodded when he heard this, and then brought all the ministers to report to the Queen Mother, enumerating the various crimes that prevented King Changyi from inheriting the ancestral temple.

Then the Empress Dowager Shangguan drove to the Chengming Hall of Weiyang Palace in a car.

Later, the Shangguan family issued an edict to order Liu He, the king of Changyi, to enter the Chengming Palace.

After Liu He received Shangguan's order, he already understood what was about to happen, and his face looked miserable.

He said to the people on his left and right: "You should leave Chang'an as soon as possible. Go as far as you can..."

After saying this, Liu He followed the people who came to deliver the edict to Chengming Hall.

As soon as Liu He entered Chengming Hall, the eunuch at Zhonghuang Gate closed the door.

Liu He asked loudly: "What do you want to do?"

General Huo Guang knelt down and said: "The Empress Dowager's edict..."

Liu He, who had been mentally prepared for a long time, was silent for a moment and said: "Perhaps I can spare my ministers?"

Huo Guang said: "No," and immediately ordered all Liu He's ministers to be arrested and awaiting disposal."

Huo Guang then ordered: "Watch the guards carefully. If the king of Changyi commits suicide in any accident, I will be blamed for the murder of the king."

Liu He asked: "What crime did my ministers commit, and the general wanted to arrest them all?"

Huo Guang did not answer Liu He's question, but ordered someone to escort Liu He to see the Empress Dowager.

When Liu He saw Shangguan, she was wearing a pearl short coat and full make-up and was sitting in the tent. Several hundred attendants, fully armed, were lined up in front of His Highness.

"Instruct all the ministers to go to the palace!"

"drive!"

After all the ministers went to the palace one by one, they summoned the king of Changyi to lie down in front of the palace and listen to the edict.

Huo Guang and other ministers jointly participated in the memorial ceremony for the king of Changyi... He was debauched and confused, completely lost the etiquette of the emperor, disrupted the Han system, and should be deposed.

The Empress Dowager issued an edict: "Accurate"

Huo Guang ordered Liu He to stand up and bow down to accept the edict. Liu He said: "I heard that as long as the emperor has seven enemies, he will not lose the world even if he is unrighteous."

Huo Guang said expressionlessly: "The Empress Dowager has issued an edict to depose you from the throne of the emperor. Where will the emperor come from now!"

He immediately grabbed his hand, took off his seal and ribbon, presented it to the Empress Dowager, and then took Liu He down to the palace.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the hall.

Huo Guang was about to send someone to question him, when Huo Yun stumbled in from outside the palace with his face covered in blood.

As he ran, he shouted loudly: "It's not good...it's not good...Liu Yi has rebelled..."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, but Huo Guang remained calm at this time.

He put Liu He down and walked quickly to Huo Yun.

"What happened?"

Huo Guang asked in a deep voice.

Huo Yun also calmed down at this time.

"General, today I took over the gate of Weiyang Palace as ordered. Everything was going well, but... Liu Yi openly drew his sword against him..."

After Huo Yun's explanation, the minister finally understood the whole story.

It turned out that Huo Yun did not have an edict from the emperor or the empress dowager when he took over the Weiyang Palace. Therefore, he had a conflict with Liu Yi, who was guarding the palace gate.

Although Huo Yun is somewhat capable, he is just compared with the dudes in Chang'an City.

How can it be compared with Liu Yi, a warrior who fought out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood?

Seeing that Liu Yi was unwilling to hand over his military power, he actually started to get violent with Liu Yi. As a result, he was beaten to a pulp by Liu Yi three times.

Not only did Liu Yi fail to seize control of the gate of Weiyang Palace, but Liu Yi seized control of most of Weiyang Palace in one fell swoop.

Now, in addition to Chengming Hall, even the control of Xuanshi Hall has fallen into Liu Yi's hands.

After hearing what Huo Yun said, the minister in the palace couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

Du Yannian said: "It seems that Marquis Xinyang did not do this intentionally. Please ask the Queen Mother to issue an edict to recruit Marquis Xinyang to come here..."

Du Yannian's words represent the thoughts of most of the ministers in the palace today.

But there was one person who always frowned, and that person was Tian Yannian.

Tian Yannian said to Huo Guang at this time: "General, it is better to be careful. I thought that I should immediately mobilize the Northern Army to suppress..."

Ma Shijian said at this time: "Is Da Sinong too sensitive? This matter must be a misunderstanding!"

Tian Yannian snorted coldly and said: "Misunderstanding, gentlemen, please don't forget what happened today. Whatever happens today will affect the entire Han Dynasty..."

When Ma Shijian heard this, he no longer dared to speak.

Tian Yannian glanced at him again and spoke to Huo Guang again: "General, please order the deployment of troops as soon as possible!"

Huo Guang was about to speak when faint shouts of death could be heard outside the palace.

Huo Guang raised his eyebrows: "What happened outside the palace?"

Soon a Langguan rushed into the hall with an anxious look.

"Queen Mother, General! The Marquis has also rebelled!"

"Golden reward!"

Tian Yannian quickly stepped forward and grabbed Lang Guan's collar and asked, "What did Marquis Marquis do?"

Nalang Guan said: "The two palace guards led by Marquis Zhang have now blocked the gates of Chang'an... and are currently fighting with the lieutenant's army..."

As soon as Lang Guan said this, everyone in the palace knew that things were now serious.

Everyone suddenly turned their attention to Huo Guang.

This Jinshang was Huo Guang's son-in-law. No one thought that Jinshang would have such courage and dare to carry out administrative coup.

In fact, it was not just Liu Yi and Jin Shang who were acting at this time.

The Yulin Army led by Zhang Huan has also entered Chang'an City with the support of Liu Yi and Jin Shang.

On the other hand, Zhang Yue has also gathered the guards of various princes' mansions as well as the Qimen and Huqi armies.

…

Huo Guang also knew that the situation was urgent at this time, and immediately issued an order for the Northern Army to enter Chang'an in the name of the Empress Dowager.

At the same time, they began to dispatch warriors near Chengming Palace to prepare to resist the attack of Liu Yi and the palace guards in the hands of Jin Bo.

Huo Guang's action was quite decisive, but it was already too late, Zhang Yue had already launched full force...
