Chapter 314 Liu Xie's Abnormal History (2)

"Later, when I was not yet full-term, that dearest person appeared. She was afraid that I would be assassinated if I stayed in the harem, so she took me to Yongle Palace to raise me. That person was my grandma, the son of a big man. Empress Dowager Dong."

Empress Dowager Dong, Ma Chao also knew something about her, and her family background and name were not introduced in the history books.From this, it can be speculated that her family background is insignificant, she may be just a commoner, and even if she is not a commoner, she is at most a family of small officials and eunuchs, so she only married King Pan, who has the title of Marquis of Tinghou.

However, her fate turned very suddenly. Her 13-year-old son Liu Hong was unexpectedly favored by the Dou family of the central government and welcomed to the capital Luoyang to inherit the rule.As a result, this Dong family is expected to become the queen mother.

However, although her own son became the emperor, the Dong family, who is a feudal concubine, is only the wife of a marquis and feudal prince under the emperor: Therefore, the Empress Dowager Dong can neither go to the capital Luoyang to enjoy the scenery; What's more, at that time, there was a ready-made empress dowager-the empress of Emperor Huan Liu Zhi of the Han Dynasty-Empress Dou Miao.

However, another twist of her fortune soon came.During this period, there was no open and secret fighting in the harem, she was far away in Hejian, and eight months later, she waited for the news that the eunuch launched a coup d'état and killed the Dou family.In March of the following year, the imperial court welcomed Emperor Ling's mother Dong from Hejian to Luoyang and honored her as Empress Xiaoren—then she was called Empress Dowager Dong.

History did not think highly of this Empress Dowager Dong, almost exactly the same as her daughter-in-law Empress Dowager He.Because she and the He family are both from Hejian, they are born with strong hatred and have an almost crazy obsession with the desire for power.During the reign of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, she interfered in the government affairs and sold officials for goods.The only difference from Empress Dowager He is that she may have learned a lesson from Empress Dowager Dou, and she doesn't have the slightest affection for those eunuchs and eunuchs.But after all, she is a woman with no knowledge at all, and her choice is also very strange: appoint a relative.

It can be said that the entire Eastern Han Dynasty is a muddled account that is not too bad.When the emperor succeeds to the throne, he will always be a kid.His biological mother is the one who assists the government, and those women who can rely on other people are her natal family, which creates a situation of foreign relatives' dictatorship.After the little emperor grew up, in order to regain the power in his hands, he had a good impression of the eunuch who had accompanied him since he was a child, and used the eunuch to check and balance his relatives.

However, as the mainstay of the whole country, the scholars who are dedicated to serving the country can only wander between the arrogant and unreasonable relatives on the one hand and the eunuchs with mental deformities on the other, which leads to deeper and deeper resentment in their hearts, especially in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The two "disasters of party imprisonment" eventually made them more and more disappointed with the imperial power.In the end, it led to the situation where the tyrants and powerful scholars began to fight against the royal family through armed struggle.

Ma Chao felt more and more sad for Liu Xie now. He could speculate that the Empress Dowager Dong didn't really love Liu Xie, but just wanted to use Liu Xie to compete with Queen Mother He for power.It is conceivable that such a woman can write contingency and resentment psychological words on Liu Xie's blank paper, and it is no wonder that Liu Xie taught by her will not be abnormal in the end!
Sure enough, for a while later, it was Liu Xie who was telling how Empress Dowager Dong treated him well.Ma Chao was not in the mood to interrupt him, and it wasn't until Liu Xie said that he was four or five years old that Ma Chao gradually listened to him again.

"I was sensible early, and I showed my intelligence very early. So I hired a servant earlier than other children. No matter which servant or famous person, they all praised me for being smart and said how excellent my talent is. ...But, at this time, I had to appear in the harem again to meet my half-brother. Of course, inevitably, I would also run into that Mrs. He from time to time."

"Five years old... maybe when I was younger, I don't know why, I always have a strange feeling. This feeling comes from that He Shi! Is it probably my hallucination? Because every time, I always I felt that when the servants praised me in front of Emperor Ling, He looked at me—well, that look was a bit strange. It didn't look like a normal woman looking at a smart child.

That look, as if... like a hyena protecting food, looking at a lion cub that has already stretched its teeth and claws to snatch its food!It's as if one sees a potential threat in the future!
Those eyes made me feel a bit of instinctive anxiety, a bit of instinctive danger!

Although... that woman hides such eyes very deeply.But ever since I learned about my background, I knew that woman would never let me go.However, at that time, I was just a child, and my choice was to escape.

And this escape lasted for five or six years...

At that time, I thought, as long as I hide my intelligence.Don't let her stare at me again, and I'll be safe.But later I found out that it is simply impossible.Born in the royal family, if you don't go out to fight, you can only die to be completely peaceful! "

"Then, when did Your Majesty decide to change and struggle to survive?" Ma Chao asked for the first time.Because Liu Xie's story is so wonderful, if Liu Xie doesn't mind, Ma Chao really wants to write down Liu Xie's story, so that all future emperors can have a look at the psychological growth history of this genius and evil boy.

When Liu Xie saw Ma Chao's initiative to ask questions, he seemed to have broken free from his memories. After smiling warmly at Ma Chao, he said, "General Ma is very interested in my story?"

"I have to say, your story is very exciting, I have been completely immersed in your story. But I still can't mind, maybe I can ask, what kind of experience makes you don't care about other people's lives now, to achieve My own purpose?" Ma Chao changed into a more comfortable position, and it seemed that he had planned not to go back until he had heard Liu Xie's story.

And Liu Xie seemed very happy, after all, no matter how smart, vicious, and scheming he was, he was just a child.He has been aggrieved in his heart for so many years, and there is no one to talk to, so he can only go further and further away on the road of paranoia, and the further he walks, the more frightened he becomes.

The appearance of Ma Chao today seems to have given him a godsend opportunity to talk.He waved his hand, asked someone to take out a jug of wine, and then said to the air: "Back down, General Ma will not hurt me anymore. Some words, the more you listen to them, the more you will die morning……"

There was no echo in the air, but Ma Chao felt with his keen intuition that the two masters had already left.In other words, at this time, Ma Chao could easily kill Liu Xie.But what I have to admit is that Liu Xie won again at this point.At this time, Ma Chao was really unwilling to kill Liu Xie.

So, he picked up the wine bottle and made a humble respect to Liu Xie, and waited for the bitter and slightly sweet wine to drink.Ma Chao looked at Liu Xie, quietly waiting for Liu Xie to continue his story...
