I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 114 The Three Mountains on the Son of Heaven
The ominous ceremony is over, and the gift is coming.

With the end of Emperor Xiaozhao's funeral, Liu He's enthronement ceremony naturally also came.

The enthronement ceremony is much more grand than the funeral ceremony, but the time and steps are much less.

On the tenth day of June, Emperor Xiaozhao was buried in Zhaoling.

On June [-]th, Liu He ascended the throne in the front hall of Weiyang Palace and accepted the worship of hundreds of officials and ministers.

So far, Liu He has officially become the master of Weiyang Palace and the Great Han Empire.

From the day he was canonized as the Crown Prince, Liu He has been living in Weiyang Palace.

The palace has become more luxurious, but Liu He is very lonely.

Because Wang Ji, An Le, Gong Sui, Yu Wuyou and other Changyi officials, as well as the servants and hired workers brought from Changyi Kingdom, have not yet entered the palace, and are temporarily living in the burned Changyi mansion.

They have not yet received new appointments, so there is no official title.

Without a title, it is of course impossible to stay and move around freely in the forbidden palace.

Compared with the hundreds of officials and ministers in the court, the officials of Changyi Kingdom are outsiders, in other words, they may not be welcomed.

If Liu He is the real emperor instead of a puppet, then he can immediately arrange these most trusted officials to different positions in the court.

Even if they were all made into Sangong Jiuqing, the others wouldn't even dare to fart.

However, Liu He now has the name of the emperor for nothing, and without the real power of the emperor, it is impossible to appoint an official of six hundred shi.

On his head, there is another mountain, a mountain that weighs him down so much that he can't even breathe - Huo Guang.

No appointment, no matter how small, must be arranged by Huo Guang.

If you say you can do it, you can do it, and if you can’t do it, you can do it;

Then Liu He could only think of a way, how to bring these Changyi officials to the court.

……

On the fifteenth day of the sixth lunar month, Liu He stood alone in the courtyard outside the propaganda room of Weiyang Palace.

The moon above his head is as round and bright as the one I saw in Fuyao Temple a month ago.

That night, Liu He suffered an inexplicable assassination.

To this day, the real culprit behind the scenes has still not been found out - and it is not known whether the court is seriously investigating.

Liu He looked around, and the guards in the hallway were all well-groomed guards. Compared with those soldiers in Changyi Kingdom, they were much more elite, but Liu He still believed in the soldiers in Changyi Kingdom.

Since Emperor Xiaowu, in order to reduce the possibility of the generals' supporters holding back the palace, the army guarding Chang'an was divided into many parts.

Each army has its own responsibilities and is not affiliated with each other. Naturally, they can constrain and restrict each other-roughly divided into four levels: outside the city, inside the city, inside the palace, and inside the palace.

The northern army stationed on the outskirts of Chang'an City is directly under the command of Da Sima. It is divided into eight school lieutenants, and each school lieutenant is in charge of an army of about 5000 people.

In the city of Chang'an, those who manage the law and order and catch thieves are the pavilion soldiers under the jurisdiction of Sanfu, with a total number of more than [-] people.

The guards in the palace and the hall were in charge of the Southern Army, led by Guang Luxun and the palace guards respectively.

Habayashiro, Habayashi Orphan, Kimonro and the guards inside the palaces under the jurisdiction of Guang Luxun are the most personal guards of the emperor when he travels and in daily life

The military guards under the jurisdiction of each palace guard are responsible for guarding the area from the inside of each palace to the outside of each palace.

From outside the city to inside the city, from inside the city to inside the palace, and from inside the palace to inside the palace, these four kinds of armies have a total of nearly 10 people, making them the most elite troops of the Han Empire.

The sources of soldiers of the Southern Army and the Northern Army were also different. The soldiers of the Southern Army who were closer to the emperor came from counties other than Sansuke; while the soldiers of the Northern Army on the periphery were selected from good families in the Sansuke area.

In addition, the Han Dynasty at this time still adopted the conscription system as the mainstream, but the conscription system has also begun to rise.

Therefore, whether it is the Southern Army or the Northern Army, there are conscripts who only serve for one year, and there are recruits who have served for many years.In this way, the mobility of soldiers is guaranteed, and the combat effectiveness is not reduced.

The extremely complicated deployment of troops inside and outside Chang'an was almost arranged by Emperor Xiaowu alone. It could not be said that he had bad intentions. He just wanted to prevent a certain army from committing misconduct and endangering the emperor's life.

And when the prince was abolished and rebelled against, this system also proved to be effective.

However, Emperor Xiaowu, who was lying in the mausoleum, probably would not have imagined that the auxiliary ministers he personally selected could firmly control both the Southern Army and the Northern Army.

This set of systems to prevent the rebellion of powerful ministers and generals has instead become an iron net that binds the hands and feet of the Han emperor-this almost cut off the possibility of Liu He directly dispatching troops to eliminate Huo Guang.

Even if Liu He was able to master one or two of them by surprise, it would not be able to play a decisive role compared to the huge number of troops in the Southern Army and the Northern Army.

Therefore, Liu He can only figure it out slowly.

Before becoming emperor, Liu He had to figure it out slowly.

After becoming the emperor, Liu He still had to figure it out slowly.

……

Thinking of the complexity involved, Liu He turned his eyes away from the moon and looked at the farther sky.

Because the moon is too bright, the stars all over the sky are blocked from light.

At daybreak, Liu He is going to have a court meeting with all officials for the first time as the Son of Heaven.

Since Gong Sui and others did not have enough rank and official positions, they could not participate, so Liu He had to face this challenge alone.

Although he has ascended the throne, there are still many problems to be solved before Liu He.

If this is a difficult and dangerous path, solving Huo Guang is only the highest mountain among them.

Before that, Liu He still had countless mountains to climb.

And in front of him, there are several mountains that must be climbed over.

The first mountain is to arrange as much as possible the subordinates I brought to the appropriate position in the court. This is a sensitive matter, but it is also a must.

Liu He had also thought about it, waiting for Huo Guang to die of old age.But ever since the assassination in Changyi Palace, Liu He realized that history might have been changed.Even though Huo Guang never had the intention of treason in history, it is uncertain whether he will harm himself now.

Liu He couldn't sit still and wait for his death, so he naturally wanted to get some bargaining chips for himself in a reasonable way as much as possible.

But it's like getting Changyi Lang by pretending to be crazy.

Liu He also wanted to use a reasonable method to install someone he trusted in the court.

The second mountain is to deal with Liu Bingji.On this matter, Liu He was always vacillating. In fact, when he first arrived in Changyi, Liu He had already figured out a way out for Liu Bing.But later, Wang Shi asked himself to kill him, which made Liu He shaken. Liu He was unwilling to do that, but he knew that it was the safest way.

Since ancient times, the emperor's family has been the most ruthless.

Maybe after seeing more dangers, Liu He can become a cold-faced emperor like Emperor Xiaowen and Emperor Xiaowu.

But at least at this moment, he is not that kind of person.

Liu He still decided to meet Liu Bingji first before making a decision.

The third big mountain is to worship the high temple.Failure to pay homage to the Gaomiao was one of the reasons why Liu He was deposed in history.

The emperor of the Han Dynasty came to the throne not only to be the emperor, but also to be the son of heaven.

And worshiping the Gaomiao represents the position of the Son of Heaven.

Judging from the experience of previous generations of emperors, that is, after the emperor takes the throne, he will worship the Gaomiao in about ten days.

But for some reason, the historical Liu He didn't go to worship Gaomiao for nearly a month.

In the end, when the emperor was abolished, Huo Guang said that he was not regarded as the emperor if he did not worship the Gaomiao, and he was abolished.

I don't know if Huo Guang deliberately delayed the time of worshiping Gaomiao.

These three mountains are what Liu He has to climb right now.

Otherwise, his throne will not be stable and peaceful.

Unless Huo Guang died suddenly at this time, Liu He still didn't have the slightest trust in him.

Who knows if Huo Guang will also find a chance to abolish himself during this month?
Tomorrow will be the first court meeting, and only Liu He will go alone.

This will be his first confrontation with Huo Guang and Baiguan.

　It was recommended in the fourth round.

　　Really, along the way, there are no recommendation tickets, rewards, monthly tickets, chapter reviews and follow-ups from everyone in the past few weeks.

　　I definitely can't write it down.

　　Not much to say, thanks again everyone.

　　I'm very satisfied to get to the fourth round, and Sanjiang doesn't dare to expect extravagantly.

　　It still won't be on the shelves next week, so continue with the free chapters.
