Chapter 321: There is no turning back, even though the prince is sure that the world will be uneasy
Pan Shu pressed against Sun Quan's chest and said softly: "As long as Your Majesty is willing to let me do it, I will be willing to protect Jiangdong's foundation for Your Majesty even if I go through fire and water in the future." She seemed to have no hesitation.
But only she knew that she was doing it for herself and Liang'er, and for the power of being in charge of politics behind the curtain in the future.
Sun Quan sighed and said: "Hey, Shu'er, I really don't want you to get involved in the chaos of court battles in the future. After all, the current struggle is already very fierce.
It's just that some important ministers from the two factions went off to fight, so the situation became a little calmer. If Shu'er gets involved again, it's hard to say that this will be the fate of Queen Lingsi He."
He is seven feet and one inch tall. His family originally engaged in butchering. Later, he was selected into Yeting according to the system of selecting palace maids. Fortunately, Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty came to give birth to the prince Liu Bian.
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty had several princes, but they all died in infancy. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was afraid that his prince Liu Bian would die early, so he fostered him in a Taoist home and named him Marquis Shi.
of favor.
He was stubborn and jealous, so all the concubines and maids in the harem were afraid of her.
In the first year of Guanghe (178), Empress Song, the queen of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, was framed and slandered by Wang Fu, the official of the Central Committee, and Cheng A, the Taizhong doctor. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty deposed the queen and sent her to the violent chamber. Empress Song finally
Die of melancholy.
On the fifth day of December in the third year of Guanghe (180 years) (November in the Annals of the Later Han Dynasty), Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty made He the queen. In June of the fourth year of Guanghe (181 years), Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty posthumously granted He the title of empress.
His father, He Zhen, was a chariot and cavalry general, Marquis of Wuyang, and his posthumous title was Xuande (written as Xuanhuai in the Chronicles of the Later Han Dynasty).
At that time, the beauty Wang Rong of Han Ling Emperor was pregnant. Because she was afraid of He, she took medicine and tried to abort the fetus herself, but the fetus was stable and motionless.
Wang Rong dreamed many times that he was walking with the sun on his back, and he thought it was a good omen, so he never thought about aborting the fetus.
In the same year (181), Wang Rong gave birth to the prince Liu Xie, so the He family sent people to poison Wang Rong with poisonous wine.
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was furious and wanted to depose the He family, but the eunuchs firmly discouraged him before giving up.
The prince Liu Xie was personally raised and taught by the Empress Dowager Dong, the mother of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, and was called Donghou.
In the summer of the sixth year of Guanghe (183), Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty granted He's mother Xing (surname unknown, given name Xing) the title of Lord of Wuyang.
Later, the ministers asked Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty to establish the crown prince. Emperor Ling believed that Liu Bian was frivolous and unworthy and could not be his heir. However, because he favored the He family, He's brother General He Jin also held great power, so he hesitated to decide.
.
In the sixth year of Zhongping, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was seriously ill, but at this time, the crown prince had not yet been established.
At first, Empress Dowager Dong repeatedly persuaded Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty to make Liu Xie the crown prince. He resented her and Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty passed away before the proposal could be settled.
After He came to power, Dong Chong, the hussar general and nephew of Empress Dowager Dong, came into conflict with He Jin's power. Every time Empress Dowager Dong wanted to interfere in political affairs, He refused to stop her.
Empress Dowager Dong scolded angrily: "Are you so domineering now that you rely on your brother's power? You should order the hussar general Dong Chong to cut off He Jin's head and bring it to him."
After hearing this, the Queen Mother He told He Jin. He Jin, Sangong and his brother Chariot General He Miao and others reported: "The Queen Mother Dong instructs Xia Yun, the former and middle minister, Feng Xu, the servant of Yongle, and others to hand over the prefectures and counties and monopolize them.
All treasures and goods from various places were sent to Yongle Palace.
According to past practice, the vassal king was not allowed to stay in the capital. There were certain rules to follow for carriages and clothing, and there were certain grades to follow for food.
Please move the palace of Empress Dowager Dong back to her original fiefdom." He agreed in the name of Emperor Liu Bian. He Jin then sent troops to surround the palace of the hussar general Dong Chong, and arrested Dong Chong, who was dismissed from office and committed suicide.
Empress Dowager Dong eventually died of fear and fear, and the people blamed the incident on He.
Among his two sons, the eldest son Liu Bian was born to Queen He, and the second son Liu Xie's biological mother was Wang Meiren, who was raised by Empress Dowager Dong (the biological mother of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty) in his early years.
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty wanted to appoint Liu Xie, who was more intelligent, so he asked Jian Shuo to dismember and retain the military power of the empress's brother, General He Jin, while Jian Shuo tried to directly remove He Jin.
However, due to the leak of the news, Jian Shuo's plan failed, and Liu Bian ascended the throne. After He Jin came to power, he hated Jian Shuo deeply and was ready to get rid of him quickly. Yuan Shao, who was then a lieutenant in the Central Military Academy and was born in the fourth generation and the third prince, suggested taking the opportunity to kill Jian Shuo.
All the eunuchs were eradicated.
He Jin then discussed with his sister. However, considering that he had gained the favor of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and the eunuch Guo Sheng had helped a lot, the Queen Mother He firmly opposed it. Under Yuan Shao's suggestion, He Jin, who was hesitant and lacked courage, secretly recruited soldiers from all over the country to Beijing.
, trying to force her sister to have an abortion.
In August of the first year of Guangxi (189), the general He Jin wanted to kill the eunuchs, but he was killed by the eunuchs instead. He's mother Wuyang Jun was also killed by the rebels.
Dong Zhuo, the governor of Bingzhou, was recruited and led troops and horses into Luoyang. He bullied and brutalized the imperial court, so he deposed Liu Bian as King of Hongnong and established Liu Xie as emperor, which was the Xian Emperor of the Han Dynasty.
Helping Liu Bian to go down to the palace, he went to the north to declare himself a minister. He choked with sobs and shed tears. The ministers endured the pain with sadness, but no one dared to speak.
Dong Zhuo also argued that the He family forced the Queen Mother Dong, causing her to die of depression, which was not in line with the etiquette of a daughter-in-law serving her mother-in-law, so he moved the He family to Yong'an Palace.
On September 3rd of the same year, Dong Zhuo sent people to poison He with poisonous wine. Dong Zhuo also asked Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to go to Fengchang Pavilion to mourn He. All the officials came to the funeral dressed in white, which was not in line with the funeral etiquette of a queen mother.
The end was very miserable and he died an abnormal death. It was really not worth it.
But for the power of listening behind the curtain, even if you are not good at it, it is worth holding it in your hands, even if it is just to quench your thirst by drinking poison for a moment!
Obviously, this was a killing of chickens with a bull's-eye and luring wolves into the house. He Jin himself was killed by the eunuchs, and then the eunuchs were eliminated by Yuan Shao and others.
At this point, the two major groups of relatives and eunuchs perished together in the final conflict. The Eastern Han Dynasty entered the era of powerful ministers and was completely destroyed.
In other words, eunuchs, relatives, powerful ministers, and the three major cancers of feudal imperial power were all revived in the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Pan Shu said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, I don't want to be like this, but Liang'er is still young..."
Sun Quan patted Pan Shu's slender shoulder and said: "Shu'er must know that many times the Tian family has no mercy. Even now that the crown prince has been decided, Jiangdong is still uneasy. Unexpectedly, I and the courtiers laughed at Cao Mengde's crown prince dispute.
It didn’t end until his death,
Unexpectedly, it is my turn now. Things are so unpredictable. Even if I don't want to, I don't want such a fratricide to happen."
Pan Shu replied: "Your Majesty, please be more at ease. I believe that as long as you are here, such a thing will not happen. All you need to do is belittle the two parties."
