Although Xun Shuang said he would discuss it later, he actually acquiesced...
Because of the so-called further negotiation, who should I approach to discuss it?
Dong Zhuo definitely didn't want to wait for anyone to discuss it again, and he would definitely start preparing for the matter of moving the capital next. The so-called further discussion was just like a fig leaf, hanging in the air to barely cover it.
Even if some people still have luck, after Dong Zhuo killed Shangshu Zhou Ao and City Gate Captain Wu Qiong respectively after the morning court, basically everyone knew that moving the capital was a certainty.
, there is no room for recovery.
At noon, Dong Zhuo came to the palace gate and asked, "Where has your Majesty gone?"
Xiaohuangmen trembled and replied in a panic: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister... Your Majesty went to the Ancestral Temple..."
"The Imperial Ancestral Temple..." Dong Zhuo pulled the flesh on his face, turned around and headed towards the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
There were two Ancestral Temples in the Han Dynasty, one was the "Gaomiao" that worshiped the Five Emperors of the Western Han Dynasty, and the other was the "Shizu Temple" that worshiped Emperor Guangwu. What is interesting is that the emperors of the Eastern Han Dynasty all placed their shrines in the "Shizu Temple"
, which has some special meanings.
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty Liu Xie would definitely not be in the "Gao Temple", because what is enshrined in the "Gao Temple" is the line of emperors from Liu Bang. In the "Shizu Temple", it is the emperors who started with Liu Xiu.
Place of worship.
The spiritual tablets of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty are also enshrined in the "Shizu Temple"...
At this moment, Liu Xie was kneeling under the memorial tablet of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, curled up into a ball, and was crying softly.
After all, Liu Xie was just a child under ten years old at this time. Within a year, first his father who loved him passed away, and then he lost his mother He who was not fond of him but was also in name only.
, and finally even my brother Liu Bian...
He heard that the old eunuch in the palace secretly told him that his brother Liu Bian might have been killed...
Liu Xie suppressed his crying. He didn't even dare to cry louder for fear of being discovered by others. He let tears and snot flow freely on his face, hiding in the corner and licking secretly like a wounded animal.
touching his own wounds.
The interior of the "Shizu Temple" is dark, cold and unpopular. At this time when the winter cold has not gone away and spring is coming, it is even more chilly, just like the coldness of Jiuyou, which is seeping into the soul...
Dong Zhuo pushed the door of the main hall completely open with a bang, walked in with his head held high, and stood beside Liu Xie with a sharp look. He raised his head and looked at the memorial tablets of the former emperors enshrined in the main hall, then lowered his eyes and said
Liu Xie looked at Liu Xie at his feet with disdain and said, "Why are you crying?"
"..." Liu Xie never expected that Dong Zhuo would suddenly barge in. He was caught off guard and didn't know how to respond to Dong Zhuo for a moment.
"Look up! Han child, how can you bow your head!" Dong Zhuo suddenly shouted loudly, causing the whole hall to buzz.
Liu Xie raised his head subconsciously, but saw that Dong Zhuo was not looking at him at all, but was looking at the highest spiritual tablet in the main hall, which was the tablet of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty...
Dong Zhuo said in a deep voice: "...In the past, Emperor Guangwu suppressed the violence anyway, carried out the great cause of cutting down the economy, established the world, made a clear and prudent government system, took over the power plan, and established Zhongxing. Now that I think about it, I can't help but yearn for it..."
"..." Liu Xie wiped away the snot and tears on his face. Hearing Dong Zhuo talk about his ancestors, he couldn't help it and said loudly, "...Lies! If you respect Guangwu, how dare you...
...An dare..."
"How dare you?...Depose the emperor?...Or kill the emperor? Hahahahaha..."
Dong Zhuo raised his head and laughed. The laughter shook the entire hall, making Liu Xie's ears buzz and felt very uncomfortable. He couldn't help but cover his ears with his hands.
Dong Zhuo had laughed enough, stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes due to laughter, and said: "If Guangwu knows something from the bottom of the spring, you should also congratulate me!"
"!?" Liu Xie was stunned when he heard what Dong Zhuo said...
Dong Zhuo said calmly: "The filial piety is short of Zuo, the filial piety has no heirs, the filial piety rises to the supreme position by supporting the common people, and the feudal princes are promoted to the imperial line. They do not respect the lineage, do not obey the destiny, the nobles and uniforms flow freely, sell titles and rank officials, and kill innocent people.
, Destroy the loyal and loyal, and you will lose your family and country! In today's situation, he has been tired of the world for a long time, so he is very lucky!"
"...That's nonsense!" Although Liu Xie knew in his heart that most of Dong Zhuo's evaluations of Han Ling Emperor were very accurate, he was his father after all, so he still gritted his teeth and refuted Dong Zhuo loudly.
"Hmph!" Dong Zhuo snorted coldly, not taking it seriously, and continued, "Today in the court, the three princes are cowardly and do nothing, and the officials are silent. They enjoy the wealth of the Han Dynasty, but they are selfish and put their family before state affairs.
Bullying the people in the countryside! These are the ministers entrusted with important responsibilities by your father!"
"..." Liu Xie was speechless. The scene in the court today was still vivid in his mind. In particular, the situation of Grand Tutor Yuan Wei acting like a wooden man without saying a word from beginning to end made him extremely disappointed...
"It is disloyal to pursue one's own desires and neglect the country; it is unwise to read poetry and books without ethics; it is unwise to act cowardly and protect one's body; it is unjust to ignore people's sorrows!" Dong Zhuo continued, "
This is the third prince of the Han Dynasty who was selected by your father to enjoy a generous salary! Hahaha, if Guangwu knows it, he would be happy to lend my hand to slaughter all the chickens, dolphins, dogs and pigs!"
"Absurd! Extremely ridiculous!...You...you also have to enjoy the salary of Han Dynasty! It was the late emperor who appointed you as a general and governor! What can you say?!" Liu Xie became angry at Dong Zhuo's words and ignored him.
Don't be afraid and shouted loudly to Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo tore off his robe, revealing his criss-crossed and scarred body, and said proudly: "I have fully repaid the kindness of the Han family! In the last year of Emperor Huan, I joined the army, killing Xianbei, suppressing the Qiang and Hu, and suppressing the Yellow Turbans
, after twenty years, more than a hundred battles, almost to the point of death, but there is no reward, but there is no reward for meritorious service, only bribes can be promoted. If your father is clear in politics, and the three princes are loyal and virtuous, how can I have the opportunity to monopolize power?"
Liu Xie saw the various wounds on Dong Zhuo's body, which were as red and purple as a centipede. He was so frightened that he stepped back half a step, but then he stood back with gritted teeth and scolded Dong Zhuo: "You forced the queen to death.
My imperial brother is good at killing ministers and massacring the countryside... How can you be loyal, righteous, benevolent and brave?!"
Dong Zhuo raised his head and laughed loudly when he heard the words, as if he heard the extremely ridiculous words. After laughing enough, he slowly pulled out the long sword from his waist and slowly slashed towards Liu Xie. The cold light on the long sword
This made Liu Xie's face turn a little pale...
Although Liu Xie was scared, he was still unwilling to show his timidity in front of Dong Zhuo again. He stared at Dong Zhuo with all his strength. Although his body was trembling a little, his feet remained motionless.
Dong Zhuo's long sword passed Liu Xie and struck the incense table, "...I am originally a sword of the Han family! How can a sword be loyal, righteous, benevolent and brave? What is the use of loyalty, righteousness, benevolent and brave? Hahahaha..."
After saying that, he didn't even draw his sword, he just left it on the incense table, turned around and left the hall with a big smile.
Liu Xie was silent for a long time, then walked up to the long sword, struggled to pull the long sword from the incense table, held it tightly in his hand, raised it high, and let out a howl that sounded like extreme pain...
According to historical records, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty once had a conflict with Cao Cao, which caused Cao Cao to sweat profusely. At that time, Cao Cao's power was even greater than when Dong Zhuo was in his heyday... So, in fact, in this era, royal power was still very deeply rooted in the hearts of the people... Cao Cao was like this... Dong Zhuo actually
