I am the Empress Dowager!

Liu Long was not talking nonsense. He had been preparing for today for a long time.

Do you really think that Ren Shang, the northwest commander of the imperial court, and half a famous general of the Han Dynasty, can only get one opportunity, Deng Feng?
Of course not!
From the beginning, Liu Long had people push Ren Shang to the front. While everyone was paying attention to Ren Shang, he teamed up with Deng Sui to start cleaning up the palace.

To put it simply, since someone in the palace dares to disrespect him, it means that the imperial guards in the palace are no longer clean.

Liu Long would not rest assured to continue living in this environment.

He captured a captain of the Deng family and immediately asked Du Jigong to join the Forbidden Army. At the same time, he transferred some of the elite soldiers and horses he brought back to join the Forbidden Army and became Liu Long's personal followers.

Then Cai Lun also directly eliminated many people in the Forbidden Army during this period. Even in order to keep it secret and not to alert others, Liu Long did not need any evidence.

As long as there is suspicion, you can arrest people, and immediately put them in jail after arresting them.

And it's not a prison in the palace, nor a prison in Tingwei Mansion, but in the prison of Luoyang Order!

It's not like Queen Mother Deng has done nothing in the palace these years. Deng Sui has been in power for many years. If nothing else, she has cleaned up everything inside and outside the palace.

Not to mention anything else, just the official positions such as Shi Zhong, Zhong Chang Shi, Provincial Secretary, Huangmen Shi Lang and other official positions that were responsible for distributing documents and memorials in the palace were snatched back from the hands of various aristocratic families one after another. .

Although eunuchs are not that easy to use and have many problems, at least they are our own people.

Moreover, these eunuchs generally came from poor backgrounds. Even if they had some intentions, they would not have much impact on the court or them.

And the really big families don't bother to have their direct lineage or valued children castrated and sent to the palace.

Even if some disciples who are not valued are used, after being sent to the palace and trained by Cai Lun and others, it is still unknown who they are targeting.

Therefore, in these years, matters in the palace can only rely on the imperial army to communicate with the outside world.

Deng Sui and Liu Long acted quickly. After capturing the imperial army, they immediately blocked the news and asked the eunuchs in the palace to lock the palace door. As a result, the courtiers still did not know that [-]% of the imperial army in the palace had been replaced.

As for Luoyang Ling, there is no need to worry.

It is true that the Luoyang Order was not from Deng Sui, but that year the natural disaster directly affected the capital.

A drought caused food prices in the capital to skyrocket and plunged the court into a panic.

In order to calm the people's hearts and appease the world, Deng Sui decided to do something, at least to report to God.

Therefore, she personally went to the official residence in Luoyang to review the records to see if there were any cases of unjust imprisonment.

This is originally the rule of the imperial court. When natural disasters occur, man-made disasters must be solved. This is considered to be an understanding of God's warning.

But it happened that one prisoner in the Luoyang Order's prison was really wronged.

He did not commit murder, but because the Luoyang Order could not find the murderer or did not dare to find the murderer, he was directly tortured and eventually forced to confess.

When Deng Sui first arrived, he didn't dare to say a word. Finally, Deng Sui noticed that his expression seemed to have changed, and he took him out directly.

After a thorough examination, Deng Sui pulled out the officials from Luoyang government and even immediately arrested Luoyang and ordered them to be imprisoned to atone for their crimes.

From then on, the Luoyang Order was taken into Deng Sui's pocket and assigned to his close ministers. From then on, the Luoyang Order was regarded as a member of Deng Sui, but a member of Deng Sui, not the Deng family.

The person was secretly sent to Luoyang Ling's prison, and no one really noticed.

It was not until Du Jigong rushed into the hall with Yu Linwei that the officials in the court finally realized that something was wrong.

They seemed to want to say something, but Du Jigong would not give them this chance. He directly drew the sword from his waist. With his fierce look, no one dared to move for a while.

Maybe some people still refused to be convinced, but when Du Jigong looked over, the aura that rushed out from the battlefield of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood immediately made them dare not speak.Especially now that Liu Long is upright and wants to put Ren Shang on trial!
Ren Shang, who was pulled down by them during the public trial
There were reasons, soldiers and horses, and deterrence. The courtiers finally realized that something was wrong, but they did not dare to say anything.

"Go to the Imperial Medical Office and find an imperial physician to bandage this bastard. If he dies, won't my general be so distressed day and night?

What should I do if I feel uncomfortable? "

The first half of Liu Long's sentence made the courtiers relax a little, but the second half of his sentence made the courtiers' hearts arouse instantly. Even Deng Zhao knelt down directly.

"I dare not"

"You don't dare, your son dares!"

"."

In one word, Deng Zhao didn't dare to say a word anymore, and Deng Feng, who finally came to his senses, knelt on the ground in excitement, not daring to say another word despite the blood flowing.

In other words, looking at his trembling lips and his increasingly purple face, everyone knew that he didn't have the guts to speak now.

The imperial doctor and Ren Shang arrived almost at the same time. When many courtiers saw Ren Shang's appearance, they couldn't help but take a deep breath.

And Liu Long's heart was filled with anger again at this moment.

"I have long heard that the people in Tingwei's Mansion are very clever. When I see them today, they are very clever. They are really clever."

Liu Long spoke again, and another person knelt in the hall. Liang Quan, the great Han Dynasty officer, knelt directly on the ground, his face also a little pale.

"The subject takes the blame"

"Get up!" Liu Long did not embarrass Liang Tuan this time, "Your Tingwei Mansion has done this not once or twice. Are you kneeling down because you shouldn't torture to extract a confession, or are you kneeling down and you have changed your confession?"

"." At this time, Liang Tuna had just stood up halfway, then flopped and knelt down again.

The old Liang Jun lowered his head at this time, his face was full of bitterness, and he had no idea what to say.

This desolate appearance makes people feel a bit pitiful.

But there is no Liu Long at all here.

"It seems that you don't know what you are kneeling on, so just kneel down. Get up after you understand your kneeling!"

Liu Long snorted coldly, and then spoke to the trembling imperial doctor.

"After bandaging Deng Feng, show it to Ren Shang as well.

Don't forget, this old man is already dead before I finish asking! "

"I obey!" The old doctor had never experienced such a scene. At this moment, looking at the strange things in the court, looking at the Yu Linwei who even pulled out the knife, his old face was really wrinkled. A big clump.

It wasn't until half an hour later that the two of them were finally dealt with.

And Liu Long's problem finally began.

"Ren Shang, now you can tell me how much money you have taken and how much money you have given to others over the years!"
