Chapter 60 The Emperor's Wish

Zhongping five years, September.

Realizing that He Jin was about to make a move, Shi Changshi made up his mind that he must form an army to fight tit for tat.

Under the instigation of eunuchs, the emperor established eight schools in Xiyuan to check and balance General He, who held the military power.

Liu Hong claimed to be the supreme general and the commander-in-chief of the Eighth School of Xiyuan.

Xiao Huangmen Jian Shuo is the captain of the upper military school and the commander of the Eighth School of Xiyuan.

Worship Yuan Shao as Huben Zhonglang General and Lieutenant of the Chinese Army.

For the rest, Tunqi School Lieutenant Bao Hong is the Lower Military School Lieutenant, Yueqi School Lieutenant Cao Hong is the Dian Army School Lieutenant, Dangkou General Zhao Rong is the Assistant Army Zuo Xiaowei, and Feng Fang, the son-in-law of the former Zhongchang Attendant Cao Jie, is the Assistant Army Right Xiaoxiao Lieutenant Xia Yun's nephew, Xia Mou, was the captain of the left school, and Chunyu Qiong, a son of the family, was the captain of the right school.

Most of the eight school lieutenants are directly or indirectly related to the eunuchs, and the recruits this time are all from good families, young in blood, loyal to the emperor and patriotic.

After a month of training, at the beginning of October, the emperor held a grand parade ceremony for the Eighth School of Xiyuan in the suburban area.

On the playing altar, the colorful canopy is as high as ten feet, the bells and drums are ringing, the fireworks are roaring, and the colorful flags are flying high.

The supreme general Liu Hong went to the altar to watch the ceremony. There were tens of thousands of elite cavalry participating in the review. Row by row, row by row, square formation after square formation, they all passed in front of the ceremony altar, paying attention to the emperor.

The soldiers to be inspected gathered in front of the altar, and the ceremony was over.

Emperor Liu Hong, wearing exquisite armor, rode on a tall horse, surrounded by eunuchs, circled the field three times and returned to the high altar.

Thousands of troops and horses shouted together: "Eight schools in Xiyuan, always victorious and undefeated! Supreme general, long live, long live, long live!"

With such a strong army, the world will have no worries!
After the review, the emperor returned to the clubhouse to continue enjoying himself with peace of mind.

The ten permanent servants got the military power, and their attitude became even more arrogant, crushing their relatives in an all-round way.

General He, who had been divided into military power, was so angry that he couldn't contain it.

The situation became more and more acute, and the clerk group had a premonition that sooner or later there would be a disaster of weapons in the eastern capital.

In order to avoid becoming fish meat, the civil servants stepped up to join the group, while looking outside the capital, looking for suitable agents.

Liu Yu of Youzhou, Liu Biao of Yizhou, Liu Bei of Yongzhou, Yuan Shu of Yangzhou, and Dong Zhuo of Liangzhou are known as the five princes, and various relationships gradually surfaced.

The one most respected by civil servants is Liu Biao, Yizhou pastor, one of the eighth.

It is assisted by celebrities, guarded by the Cao family army, and rich in Bashu, with outstanding people.

Followed by Youzhou Mu, Liu Yu of the royal family.

Its status is precious, its reputation is quite good, and Youzhou's politics and business are harmonious, and it has great potential.

The third is General Fubo who controls Yangzhou, Yuan Shu.

His family background is prominent, he comes from a civil servant group, he has taken all the rich and prosperous places in the south of the Yangtze River, and has both navy and army.

As for Liu Bei and Dong Zhuo, they are nothing but grassroots and reckless.

The two supported the army with self-respect, had ulterior motives, and were deeply involved with the eunuch's relatives, so they didn't think about it unless they had to.

The three forces of eunuchs, relatives, and civil servants fought against each other in the same dynasty, fighting openly and covertly. Many governments were unsustainable, and the people suffered unspeakably.

On October [-]th, Dong Zhuo, who was sitting in Chang'an, met the secret envoy of General He.

"Expand the army as soon as possible, ready to go to Beijing to eradicate eunuchs at any time."

Dong Zhuo, who was worried about the shortage of money and food, was overjoyed when he heard the news, it really took no effort at all.

With the support of a large amount of military expenditure and military funds, by the end of the fifth year of Zhongping, the Liangzhou army had rapidly expanded to more than [-] people, and Dong Zhuo's department alone had [-] people.

On the eve of the sixth year of Zhongping, the emperor, who was enjoying himself in the clubhouse, had a sudden emergency and fell into a coma.

After the diagnosis by many imperial doctors, their complexions were ugly and they dared not speak.

Zhang Rang Zhao Zhong, who was isolated from China and foreign countries, was sweating profusely.

Everything has not been arranged properly, if the emperor dies now, the situation will get out of control.

Staring at more than ten imperial doctors, Zhang Rang drew out his long sword, and said viciously: "Our family doesn't care about anything else, we must save His Majesty immediately, or you will all die!"

In fact, Liu Hong, who succeeded to the throne at the age of 12, was lured by eunuchs and became obsessed with men and women prematurely. He died in 22 years, which caused the emperor's body to be ruined and hopeless.

When encountering Liu Hong who was dying of illness, even Bian Que could only run away.

Of course, the current fainting of the emperor is the backlash of long-term hard work, and he will not belch immediately.
Under the knife, the imperial doctor used multiple methods, acupuncture, decoction, massage, blessing, whether it is useful or not, it will all be given to His Majesty.

Finally, the emperor slowly opened his eyes.

But Liu Hong's complexion was gloomy, his breathing was uneven, and his temples were showing hoarfrost, as if he had aged 20 years.

Zhang Rang hurried forward and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, is the dragon's body all right?"

Zhao Zhong also crawled over, staring at the emperor intently.

Liu Hong changed his usual playfulness and absurdity, and said softly: "Call the minister."

Zhang and Zhao realized what His Majesty was going to do, and this might be the best protection for them.

"Your Majesty, it's better to wait for the dragon's body."

Liu Hong slowed down and said, "Go!"

One's own body, one's own mind.

The godfather and godmother had no choice but to groom and dress the emperor while summoning the court chiefs.

In half an hour, dozens of civil and military ministers headed by General He Jin rushed to Miyagi.

Such a major news quickly rushed to the top of the Eastern Capital's hot searches.

Everyone was shocked when they saw the emperor on the imperial couch.

I haven't seen you for a few days, why is he so old?

Seeing the prince Xie on the side of the imperial couch again, he was even more surprised.

Is it possible to register the East Palace?But, why is there only Dong Hou?

Sure enough, after the officials visited, Liu Hong was open and honest.

"I want to establish a crown prince today, so please be a witness."

The emperor has two princes.

The 16-year-old eldest son, Liu Bian, was born to Empress He.

Liu Bian was raised by Taoist Shi Zixuan since he was a child, and he was called "Shi Hou" and had a frivolous personality.

The nine-year-old youngest son, Liu Xie, was born to Wang Meiren.

During the confinement period, the beauty Wang was poisoned to death by Queen He, and Liu Hong handed over Liu Xie, who was less than a month old, to the Queen Mother Dong to raise him, so he was called "Dong Hou", and now he is stable and courteous.

Therefore, Liu Hong wanted to make Liu Xie the prince, but he had always been wary of the tradition of establishing a heir and an elder, and he was worried that he would encounter opposition from his officials, including He Jin.

Now, Liu Hong, who has a premonition that his life is not long, is trying to register the crown prince according to his own wishes.

For many years, the emperor has never mentioned the matter of appointing a prince.

Today, he suddenly expressed his heart in public, which not only excited the officials, but also realized that there might be a serious problem with the king's health.

General He Jin tasted an unknown taste, Liu Bian was an adult but still failed to get the title he deserved,

It is no secret that the emperor prefers "Dong Hou" Liu Xie in the palace.

Today I only see Liu Xie, but not Liu Bian. The emperor's thoughts are self-evident.

He took the lead and said deliberately: "Your Majesty's words are very true. The crown prince is the foundation of a country, and it should be sooner rather than later. Therefore, the prince is identified as the eldest son of your majesty, and he should be established as the crown prince because of love and reason."

General He spoke out, and what he said was also justified, so most of the civil and military personnel agreed with it.

Liu Hong still insisted: "Beneficial children are frivolous, and you can't rule the world."

Huh?
Does the emperor want to violate Confucian ethics and set up the Prince's Association?
This time, the civil service group quit.

Sikong Liu Hong took a step forward and said: "Your Majesty, it is the law of the ancestors to establish a son and an elder."

Shang Shu Lu Zhi also stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, it is not in accordance with the etiquette to abolish the elders and establish the younger."

All the ministers bowed and said: "Your Majesty, please take the country as the most important thing, and make the prince the crown prince!"

"You. You."

Liu Hong was already holding on, but at this moment he was depressed, he couldn't breathe, and he slipped and fell on the imperial couch.

"Father!"

Liu Xie rushed over and hugged Liu Hong, and Zhang Rang Zhao Zhong also supported the emperor immediately.

"Doctor!"

There was chaos in the court, and the officials were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they knelt down to plead guilty.

After examining the pulse, the imperial doctor at the side learned that he was out of breath, so he took out a silver needle to help.

At the same time, the imperial doctor also suggested that the emperor should not be stimulated any more and needed rest.

Although the matter of establishing the crown prince was nothing, both the government and the public knew that the emperor's heart was inclined to the youngest son Liu Xie.

Even the emperor can't be happy in everything.

To establish a son and a son, one must persist for 2000 years without wavering.
