"Those who are female, never thought that the force established by Empress Lu would be spread to this day!"
Gu Cheng stood in front of the Qianqiu Long Live Palace and sighed.
Empress Lu was Liu Bang's wife Lu Pheasant. She had been in power for sixteen years and had monopolized power.
The difference between her and Wu Zetian eight hundred years later is basically the difference between proclaiming the emperor and not proclaiming the emperor.
Gu Cheng had a very bad impression of Lu Pheasant because she set the precedent for Han foreign relatives to have exclusive power, and the disasters continue to this day.
At the same time, he had to lament Liu Bang's power, the clan system, and the enfeoffment of kings, which made the ambitious Empress Lu dare not proclaim herself emperor and usurp the country. Shortly after his death, the powerful Lu family was immediately suppressed and disappeared into thin air.
Of course, there are too many forces coveting the imperial power, and everything has advantages and disadvantages. Emphasis on the clan did not allow Empress Lu to claim the throne, but it led to the subsequent Rebellion of the Seven Kings. After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty extended the favor, the clan threat disappeared, and the relatives
Rising again...
A reincarnation.
Closer to home, Empress Lu in this life obviously also considered the problems after her death. In order to protect the long-term power of the Lu family, she created a female stream, which was composed of naturally beautiful women. They were placed around the royal family and ministers to serve as wives and concubines.
intelligence, influence.
The saying that a hero has a hard time with a beautiful woman is meant to belittle women, but Empress Lu was able to bring the advantages of women to the extreme, making her rule stable, and no civilized or military man, nor any talented person in the world, dared to disobey her.
It is said that if the second-generation leader of the female generation had not rebelled inexplicably and turned to the Liu royal family, the Lu family would have been able to continue to hold power.
Now, more than three hundred years later, when the Han Dynasty is facing internal and external troubles, this organization is about to regain its edge!
"Your Highness!"
Cai Wenji was still young after all, so she followed Gu Cheng step by step and summoned the courage to call out.
Cai Wenji was not a member of the female stream. Her concubine, Cai Yong's concubine Xu, recognized her identity after analyzing the general trend of the world to her.
For Cai Wenji, her mother passed away very early, and she was raised by this concubine. Half of her skills were taught by Cai Yong, and the other half were taught by her concubine, so her feelings for her were naturally very deep.
But she knew that this was a big deal and would never dare to plead for mercy rashly. She could only call out weakly.
"Peace of mind!"
Gu Cheng's face was calm and he entered the hall without promising anything.
The Qianqiu Wandai Palace was left over from the Western Han Dynasty and is said to have been made from the remains of the Epang Palace. It was originally the centerpiece of the Weiyang Palace, but was later left idle.
At this time, the palace was deserted. No one was coming or going, but there was not a trace of dust. There was even a woman in palace clothes who prostrated herself to welcome Gu Cheng's arrival.
The most dazzling thing about this woman is her long fiery red hair, which flows down from her shawl. Her appearance does not show her age. She looks like she is in her prime, but also like a woman who has experienced many years of experience and has a good look. When Gu Cheng stepped into the palace, he immediately raised his palms to the sky and said:
On his forehead, he said: "The eighth-generation female dragon Zhu Rong has met His Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness will live for thousands of years and will be a great man for thousands of years!"
Gu Cheng's pupils narrowed.
The Zhurong clan is an ancient clan, which can be traced back to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors period in ancient times.
In the myth, Zhu Rong Gonggong knocked down Buzhou Mountain. Although there are no detailed records in this life, there are also legends. Of course, it is not the story of the twelve ancestral witches of the ancient times, but two extremely powerful clan leaders.
By the time of Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, the Zhu Rong clan had evolved into eight surnames. To put it bluntly, the bloodline had become thinner and they were not the most direct lineage, so they were not qualified to be called Zhu Rong clan.
The female dragon is the name of the leader of each generation of the female generation. It is really amazing that these two identities are combined into one.
There is such a figure hidden in the harem of the Han Dynasty!
"Your Highness, this is Taizu's secret edict!"
Zhu Rong was extremely respectful and presented a secret edict with both hands.
Gu Cheng opened it and took a look. He first felt the power of the same bloodline and the majesty of the mighty True Dragon Emperor. He confirmed it was true, and then looked at the content carefully.
He finally understood how Empress Lu failed back then.
It turns out that the second generation female dragon is actually Liu Bang's person.
After Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, he destroyed the Immortal Sect and rescued two ancient clans, the Zhurong clan and the Xuanming clan, and handed them over to Zhang Liang.
Zhang Liang planned and used some miraculous means. The most outstanding woman from the Zhu Rong clan won the trust of Empress Lu and became the second generation female dragon of the female clan.
As a result, the power that Empress Lu had worked so hard to build wanted to preserve the Lu family, but instead made wedding clothes for the Liu family.
"It's truly a sage quest, and it's a perfect plan!"
Gu Cheng sighed and looked at the Zhu Rong family: "Your Zhu Rong family has been responsible for the female stream for generations?"
Zhu Rong said respectfully: "Your Highness, the fifth generation female dragon is Queen Guanglie."
"That's worthy of the name!"
Gu Cheng nodded slightly.
Queen Guanglie Yin Lihua, the wife of Liu Xiu, should marry Yin Lihua. She is a perfect generation of virtuous queens. If she is in charge of the female stream, this force will definitely be loyal to the royal family.
Of course, Lu Yao knows horse power, and time has seen people's hearts. Gu Cheng will not trust anyone easily: "Does the emperor know you?"
Zhu Rong replied: "I don't know! The female stream is only loyal to the Mingjun. Your Highness punishes Zhang Jiao, starts the party, cleans up the party, and suppresses the family. He is a generation of heroes. In the future, he will be able to sweep away the immortals and rectify the world!"
Mentioning the immortal way, Zhu Rong's tone revealed a deep hatred without any concealment.
Gu Cheng knew what she was begging for, nodded and said, "I hope it will happen one day!"
"Female ladies, please listen to His Highness's orders!"
Zhu Rong's eyes were filled with joy, and he immediately took out the bamboo slip from his sleeve and presented it.
Gu Cheng unfolded it and took a breath.
Because it contains dense records of the female members of the major aristocratic families and feudal royal families in the world.
It would be fine if they were all side rooms like Cai Wenji's concubine. The key point is that there are many wives and legitimate daughters in there.
Each woman has a photo and a unique password to contact her, which is reviewed every year to ensure loyalty.
That force back then, after nearly three hundred years of development, has expanded into a terrifying force that can secretly control the general trend of the world!
"Get up!"
The handing over of this list showed Zhu Rong's loyalty. Gu Cheng raised his hand and said: "Since you have discovered the change in the Yellow Turban tactics, do you have any solutions?"
Zhu Rong said: "I recommend a person who can help His Highness resolve the Yellow Turban incident!"
Gu Cheng asked: "Who?"
Zhu Rong said: "He is in the west city of Luoyang and was 'invited' by us!"
Half an hour later, Gu Cheng entered a remote mansion. The main hall of the mansion was surrounded by runes. There was a middle-aged scholar sitting there, guarded by several maids with strong auras.
Gu Cheng looked at the scholar's shabby robes and messy bun from afar, and raised his eyebrows: "Is that him?"
Zhu Rong nodded: "This person is unparalleled in planning and making contingency plans. He wants to imitate Liuhou and achieve the position of seeking a sage, but he is a bit unruly. Once His Highness subdues him, the Yellow Turban will definitely be hard-pressed!"
Zhu Rong had great respect for Liu Hou Zhang Liang, but there was no disdain or disdain for the scholar in his words. Instead, he had some vague expectations. This shows that this unkempt scholar is powerful.
But the scholar was trapped by the formation at first and could not see anyone coming from the outside. When Zhu Rong entered the inner hall with Gu Cheng, he did not even raise his head and bowed with a smile: "Jia Xu pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince. May I ask His Highness,
If you want to defeat the Yellow Turban, are you willing to leave Luoyang?"
