Chapter 444 Annoying me, I will help Kede's son-in-law to be the emperor! (
Chapter 444: If you piss me off, make Ke De’s son-in-law the emperor! (Three-in-one)
The little emperor Liu Xie, who had always existed like a little transparent person, moved at this time.
He personally wrote an edict to Dong Zhuo to intercede for Liu Cheng.
It is said that the emperor's uncle Liu Cheng was unparalleled in battle and surrounded by powerful enemies. The emperor's uncle was the number one general under the Grand Master.
It is an existence like a purple golden beam across the sea.
Don't listen to rumors and deprive the emperor's uncle of his military power.
Doing so is tantamount to destroying the Great Wall.
It will only harm yourself, Guanzhong, and the strength of the Han Dynasty.
After some thoughtful people deliberately spread the word, Liu Xie's plea letter for Liu Cheng spread and was seen by many people.
Even the emperor began to do this, so some people began to follow suit.
Of course, not many people followed.
Because many people have sensed the aura of danger, and recalling Dong Zhuo's thunderous tactics before, they feel that at this time, it is better to remain silent...
With the death of the little emperor himself, the matter became more complicated and confusing...
The snow has stopped falling, but the whistle wind is blowing stronger.
The cold wind is biting and chilling all over the body. It blows on the face, making people feel like a knife has been cut on the face, causing pain.
Such a cold wind did not dissipate the heat in some people's hearts, but instead made the heat in their hearts become even stronger.
They widened their eyes, waiting for what had been brewing for a long time to explode...
Of course, not everyone thinks so.
"Confused!!"
Xun Shuang looked at the words written on the paper in his hand and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Everyone looked a little sad.
It’s so confusing!
No matter what happens, the emperor should not end up with what happened this time!
Doing this would be tantamount to completely offending Dong Zhuo to death.
Not only did he offend Dong Zhuo, but Uncle Liu Huang would also be offended by the emperor.
Push him further out!
Now, what needs to be done most is not to push Uncle Liu Huang away, but to try his best to pull him towards him!
Thinking this in his heart, he sighed again. After all, the emperor was still too young and acted too impulsively.
Those people are too short-sighted!
At first glance, it seems to be beneficial to the emperor, but is this really the case?
This is ruining the emperor's few opportunities!
The key is that he didn't know about this in advance.
If he knew, he might be able to fight to stop Yi Er.
As a result, now, by the time he knew the news, it had already happened and had completely spread.
It's too late to say anything.
"Wen Ruo, what do you think about this matter?"
After Xun Shuang sighed, he stared at the crystal ice hanging under the eaves and asked Xun Yu, his voice full of fatigue.
Xun Yu said: "If you don't do it, you won't die.
The emperor is too young and has little power in his hands. As the emperor, he can only be a false emperor.
There will be no other chance.
My uncle had made a good judgment before, the Han Dynasty was prosperous, and now the emperor cannot be counted on, so he can only fall on Uncle Liu."
Xun Yu spoke frankly without much regret.
He is a minister of the Han Dynasty and is loyal to the Han Dynasty, but that does not mean that he must be loyal to the little emperor sitting on the throne.
As long as he is a member of the Han clan, as long as a man named Liu is the emperor, and as long as his Han name does not change, there is no difference to him.
Historically, if Cao Cao's surname was not Cao but Liu, and he considered himself a clan member of the Han Dynasty, then the uncles and nephews Xun Yu and Xun You would definitely be different.
Xun Shuang sighed and said: "You are right, but after all, we are still the flesh and blood of the late emperor. I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart..."
Xun Yu said: "There is no way. If the late emperor could live a few more years and let his children grow up, or if he could arrange the things that should be arranged before he died.
Things wouldn't have turned out like they are now.
When he was alive, he made all kinds of troubles and inactions, leaving behind a lot of mess.
Once he passed away, everything exploded..."
Xun Yu's meaning is very obvious. Emperor Ling, the father of the emperor, did not care about his son's life and death and did not arrange the matter well.
At this time, the world is in such chaos. The little emperor can't control the situation at all. Sometimes he will make some stupid operations and throw away the few advantages he has. Naturally, there is no way to protect him to death.
of necessity.
He is not fit to be an emperor either.
"If I really count on him, I'm afraid that the entire Han Dynasty will fail and will be replaced by others!"
Xun Yu added.
Xun Shuang sighed again. After a while, he spoke again: "What do you think of this incident?"
The question he asked was similar to the last time, but Xun Yu knew that what his uncle asked this time was different from the last time.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "It's a bit unclear and I can't tell the truth from the lies."
Xun Shuang sighed feebly and said: "It's best to be fake, otherwise, Guanzhong, which has just calmed down, will be in raging war again, and the people will be in dire straits.
The little bit of vitality that has just been restored will be lost..."
Xun Yu expressed his own opinion, which was different from Xun Shuang: "It's not necessarily bad. You can let Liu Huangshu fully express his position and no longer need to be subordinate to Dong Zhuo.
Can free him from his shackles..."
Xun Shuang nodded when he heard the words, then turned to look at Xun Yu and said: "Whether it is true or not, you must not get involved until the matter is not clear, or before the person gives you a clear indication.
Otherwise, it is very likely to be self-defeating!"
Xun Yu nodded: "I know..."
…
Things once again went beyond Dong Zhuo's expectations. He did not expect that at this time, the little emperor would be able to resist and have the courage to interfere!
It's unexpected, but it's not unexpected at all.
When the little emperor started to make some moves, he already knew it.
But he didn't stop it.
On the contrary, it is indulgent.
Otherwise, according to his control over the emperor, this thing will never be released.
Although he helped to add fuel to the flames, Dong Zhuo felt uncomfortable.
What the little emperor Liu Xie did to him made him extremely angry.
"If you annoy me, I will destroy you and help my son-in-law, Ke De, to help you!"
Dong Zhuo whispered here.
Old powerful ministers who have experienced deposing the emperor and establishing a new emperor speak with confidence.
As he said this, a sneer appeared on Dong Zhuo's face, and he looked a little scared.
It is foreseeable that when the matter is over, the little emperor's life will become even more uncomfortable...
…
"Things are getting more and more interesting. Normally, everyone is quiet, but now things have changed, and everyone has come out."
Here at Liu Cheng's mansion, Liu Cheng whispered with a smile on his face.
Then he looked outside and said: "Public opinion has almost fermented, you can resign.
There are quite a few people who want me to hand over my military power."
He said this with a smile on his face...
The day after the little emperor personally died, Liu Cheng once again took the tiger talisman, seal and ribbon and went to Dong Zhuo to resign and hand over the military power.
When we went there, the sky was overcast.
In front of many people, Liu Cheng repeatedly requested to hand over the military talisman, but Dong Zhuo repeatedly refused.
It was not until Liu Cheng said that if he was not allowed, he would not do anything anymore and would return home, continue his old business, and continue killing pigs to make a living, Dong Zhuo hesitated for a long time before reluctantly agreeing.
But they only took away his tiger talisman, as well as the seals and ribbons from the Governor-General of Zhengyi and the seals and ribbons from General Wei, but not from him.
At this moment, starting from leading his troops to Sishui Pass at night, Liu Cheng, a general who had risen rapidly under Dong Zhuo and stood out, completely lost his military power.
"What do you want to do next?"
Dong Zhuo asked Liu Cheng.
Liu Chengdao: "I have been busy all the time, and my grandson-in-law is also tired. Now he wants to take a good rest.
The city of Chang'an is too chaotic and annoying, so Sun-sou wants to go to Lantian Yushan to live a pure life there."
Dong Zhuo looked at the tiger talisman and the seal and ribbon of Governor Zhengyi, and suddenly felt very tired. He stretched out his hand and waved: "Okay, it's up to you, you can take a rest..."
When Liu Cheng came out of Dong Zhuo's house, snowflakes were falling outside.
"Uncle Emperor!"
With a sound of silver robes, silver armor and white cloak, Zhao Yun, holding a bright silver gun in his hand, quickly came forward to meet him.
At this moment, he seemed to blend in with the whiteness around him.
There was some snow on his body, and he looked more concerned.
Liu Cheng came towards him and the fifty men who followed him. The tiger and leopard cavalry guards waiting for him nodded and said, "Let's go."
With that said, he personally untied the reins of the green fox horse tied to the stone pillar.
He didn't even ride a horse, he just led the green fox horse, trampling on the snow, and walked forward step by step.
Zhao Yun and the fifty tiger and leopard horse guards did not say a word. They all led their horses and followed Liu Cheng, walking forward step by step. Dong Zhuo's mansion was getting farther and farther away from them.
The footprints left on the ground extend forward.
In the sky covered with thick clouds, the snowflakes grew larger and fell one after another, as if they wanted to cover up the footprints left by Liu Cheng and the others.
In the wind and snow, Liu Cheng and his party walked further and further, turned the corner and disappeared...
This time, Dong Zhuo neither sent him off in person nor sent anyone to see him off.
He was just a person, sitting quietly on the Taishi chair, without saying a word, and his face looked ugly.
Li Ru appeared when Liu Cheng turned around to leave with Zhao Yun and others.
He did not call out to Liu Cheng, but stood quietly in front of Dong Zhuo's mansion, watching Liu Cheng and his party leave.
When the group of them disappeared, Li Ru did not leave either. He was still looking at the street corner where Liu Cheng and others left.
Snowflakes rustled down, turning his hair and clothes white...
Li Ru stood here for a long time, waiting until the snow fell from the sky and covered up the footprints left by Liu Cheng and others when they left, before he turned around sadly.
Without even shaking off his body, he returned to Dong Zhuo's mansion covered in snow...
Later, an edict from the emperor was issued, saying that General Liu Huangshu of the Wei Dynasty voluntarily surrendered his military power...
"Hahaha……"
Someone in the room was laughing, and everyone looked extremely happy.
"Liu Cheng, Liu Cheng, you have today too!"
…
In another place, a person was sitting around the stove, admiring the snow scene with a faint smile on his face.
He was holding a wine bowl in his hand, with heated wine in it.
He took a small sip of the warm wine in the bowl and looked at the falling snowflakes outside, with a faint smile on his face.
The whole person is in a very good mood.
When he was half-drinking the wine, a man appeared in the wind and snow, striding towards him.
This man was wearing armor and had a cloak on his back.
He seemed to be walking in a hurry.
When I got here, I didn't even shake off the snow on my body and walked directly to the house.
"Grandpa, something big happened!
Kede’s military power has really been taken away!”
He came to the house, stretched out his hand to warm his hands on the stove, and said anxiously to this older man.
"When the little emperor suddenly took action yesterday and got involved in this matter, I knew it would be like this.
No matter whether the little emperor still has power or not, but now he has intervened, things must happen like this..."
The man put down his wine bowl, picked up the wine pot with one hand, and picked up an empty wine bowl with the other. He poured half a bowl of warm wine and handed it to his son, signaling him to drink some to warm himself.
“You really shouldn’t do this!
Ke De made such a great contribution and it took less than two months after returning to pacify Yizhou. This will make people's hearts chill!"
He took a sip of wine from the wine bowl, looking a little depressed and worried.
"It's okay. What happened this time is mainly due to the emperor..."
The man held the wine bowl, took a sip, and said aloud, with a little ease...
The person who came in armor didn't stay in the room for long. After drinking the small half of the warm wine in the bowl, he put the wine bowl down.
"I'll go out and take people to keep an eye on Chang'an City to prevent any trouble.
We also need to dig deeper into the people who spread the rumors and try to dig them out. Once they are dug out, they will be hacked to death!"
Saying this, he stood up, put his hand on the handle of the knife at his waist, walked into the snow, and strode away...
This man was standing here, looking at the back of his son striding away, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile. This silly boy is really careless and thinks so little!
It seems that I need to say a few words to him later and give him some advice.
Otherwise, this stupid kid will miss a big opportunity.
Fortunately, I am here, otherwise, if I just rely on this child, according to his character, I probably won't be able to get much in the end.
Because of his noble status, he had to fight against Liu Cheng and obey Liu Cheng's orders.
What a shame!
He thought this in his heart, with some worries for his son.
However, after remembering that Liu Cheng no longer had military power, a smile appeared on his face again.
The most difficult step has been taken. From now on, as long as my son strives for success, the one who will benefit the most will definitely be his son!
Liu Cheng is not here. If he were here, he would find that he knows both father and son...
"Confused, confused! How can we hand over military power?
This is the foundation for a stable life!
If one dares to pay, the other dares to accept!"
Some people seemed distressed.
"It is easy to hand over military power at this time, but it will be difficult to have military power again in the future!"
…
"No, I'll go find Dong Zhuo! Let him take back his life!
This military power must never be taken away!"
Cai Yong was also anxious.
Before, he only thought these were some nonsense rumors that would not cause substantial harm.
After all, Kede was not only his son-in-law, but also Dong Zhuo's grandson-in-law.
Whether it was Kede who asked to hand over military power or Dong Zhuo's response, in his opinion, they were just some ways to deal with rumors.
There won't really be any substantive action.
Even if yesterday, the little emperor who had been unknown to everyone suddenly expressed his stance and participated in this matter through some means, he did not think that Dong Zhuo would take any substantive action against Kede.
After all, Dong Zhuo had always been lawless and could do anything to dethrone the emperor, let alone the attitude of the little emperor.
If he was such a person who cared about the emperor's attitude, he would not have reached this stage.
He still knew Dong Zhuo very well.
It was precisely because of this that he did not go to Dong Zhuo to say anything.
Who would have thought that such exciting news would come out today!
Dong Zhuo actually allowed Kede to hand over military power!
"...The emperor has come to an end, and public opinion is raging in Chang'an City. Under such circumstances, what can I do?"
Dong Zhuo looked at Cai Yong and said a little tiredly.
What Liu Cheng and others did this time was very secretive. Only a few people knew about it, and no one else knew about it.
Liu Chengdu did not reveal anything about Cai Yong, his father-in-law.
For the important generals under his command, Liu Cheng just told them not to worry about themselves and not to take too drastic actions. The storm would eventually pass.
Neither the details nor the general outline of the matter were disclosed to them.
"Master, you..."
Cai Yong originally wanted to say when did you, Dong Zhongying, become a person who cares about other people's opinions and the emperor's opinions.
But when I remembered that the emperor was the flesh and blood of the late emperor and represented the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, I swallowed these words again.
"It seems that I, Dong Zhuo, have been too gentle during this period, and I have killed fewer people!"
Dong Zhuo sat up straight and said this, his tone seemed a bit solemn.
Cai Yong was shocked when he heard these words, and instinctively wanted to dissuade Young Master Dong Zhuo from killing.
But when he remembered that the person being attacked by the rumors this time was his good son-in-law Ke De, Cai Yong tolerated these words again.
And after a moment of silence, he said: "We should really kill some people!"
Dong Zhuo glanced at Cai Yong in surprise, then nodded to Cai Yong...
In the palace and the like, the little emperor Liu Xie's face was full of excitement, with some happiness of success.
He felt very satisfied that he had seized the opportunity and delivered a fatal blow.
This move not only pushed Liu Cheng away from Dong Thief, but also caused a rift between the two.
If it is done well, it will not be impossible for the two thieves to fight each other in the future.
In addition, another reason is that he also vented his anger!
He was angry with both Liu Cheng and Dong Zhuo. His resentment towards Dong Zhuo was great, and his resentment towards Liu Cheng was also quite large.
The main reason is that Liu Cheng is the emperor's uncle whom he personally recognizes. Under the current situation, not only does he not help himself, but he also keeps helping Dong Zhuo with things!
This made him resent Liu Cheng, to a certain extent, even more than he resented Dong Zhuo.
In fact, this is why some disputes tend to arise between relatives when they do things together.
When people who are not related to each other work together, they can talk freely.
Many things feel natural when done.
But once it gets mixed up with family affection, things become different.
It is normal for outsiders to do something, but if it is done between family members, it is easy to get angry.
This is why Liu Xie's injuries were obviously caused by Dong Zhuo. Liu Cheng, the emperor's uncle, had never targeted him or caused him any direct harm, but the hatred he felt for Liu Cheng in his heart even exceeded
The main reason for his hatred towards Dong Zhuo.
He felt that since Liu Cheng was the emperor's uncle and had such strong power, he should treat him well.
I just can’t treat myself the way I do now…
He had been patient with the two of them for a long time, and now he finally took the opportunity to give them a hard blow. Why was he unhappy in his heart?
I just feel extremely relaxed in my heart.
Indescribably comfortable.
Ever since he became the emperor, he has never been as comfortable as he is now...
Liu Cheng, who was so red and purple in front of Dong Zhuo, lost power.
Although his position as General Wei still existed, in the eyes of many people in Chang'an, he had lost power.
A general who leads the army has now lost his most important military power. Isn't this a loss of power?
Many people in Chang'an City were grinning ferociously in the darkness, waiting to see the servants in Liu Cheng's house running around and being completely scattered.
Some of these people really had a grudge against Liu Cheng and had been harmed by Liu Cheng unintentionally.
However, most of them have no grudges against Liu Cheng.
They were stimulated by Liu Cheng's great achievements in a short period of time, and their eyes turned red with envy.
At this time, Liu Cheng suddenly lost ground and fell. Even though he had nothing to do with them and had no benefit to them, and the height after the fall was far higher than them, it could not stop the joy and excitement in their hearts.
It’s even happier than celebrating the New Year and marrying a beautiful daughter-in-law!
Sometimes, human nature is so complicated...
When Liu Cheng returned to his mansion, he immediately summoned his servants and announced to them that he had been deprived of military power and was about to leave Chang'an for Lantian Yushan.
Tell these slaves that if you want to leave, just leave and you don't have to be implicated with him.
When he left at this time, he understood in his heart that he would not be resentful and would also give them some money.
After Liu Cheng finished speaking, people immediately knelt on the ground, and many people even burst into tears.
"The emperor treats us so well, the wages are much higher than elsewhere, and he has never been in arrears. He said he was a slave in the house, but how could he ever treat us as a slave?
The emperor's uncle is in trouble this time, if we leave, wouldn't we have no conscience?!"
Someone knelt down and cried.
Such words made other people nod their heads.
Liu Cheng smiled and said: "Okay, since you don't want to leave, then follow me to Yushan!"
…
On the third day, Liu Cheng and his party braved the wind and snow and left Chang'an City, heading all the way to Yushan.
This time it was called a plan to plot Liu Huangshu's departure from Chang'an in the snow.
