Kill monsters in the Three Kingdoms and upgrade to become God of War

Chapter 346 The Troubled Luo Yang

The death of Liu Hong at the age of 33 is unbelievable in the eyes of modern people, but in this era, many people have become accustomed to it.Starting from Zhangdi, the third emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, his lifespan was not long, and he died at the age of 30 or [-].

The emperor made a big trip, and then Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong officially read Liu Hong's edict, the prince argued as the new king, and the prince Xie became the king of Chenliu.According to the meaning of the imperial decree, Liu Xie wanted to 'take office immediately'.But Empress Dowager Dong was attached to this grandson, so she didn't let him go.

When Liu Hong passed away, the key was that there was no funeral money, and the treasury was completely empty. Both Zhao Zhong and the Yuan Clan were thinking about internal money.As a result, except for the part kept by Zhang Rang, the other eight Huangmen who were in charge of keeping the money died, and all the money in their custody disappeared.

"Look, dig three feet and find it for me!" Yuan Kai was furious. He had been staring at the inner money for a long time, but today someone told him that the money disappeared?Of course not all of them, Zhao Zhong and Zhang Rang's money is still there, but their money cannot be moved, especially during this period of time.

The ten permanent attendants lost their master, but they cling to Empress He. Recently, under the instigation of the Yuan Clan, He Jin's ambitions have become a little inflated.He Hou saw his brother's ambitions, and worried that he would threaten the safety of himself and Liu Bian, so he had to use the ten servants to fight against him.

One month later, with the donations from the court officials, and Zhao Zhong and Zhang Rang also contributed a part of their private money, they finally got together what was needed for Emperor Ling's burial.Only then can Liu Hong be buried smoothly, but everything can only be simplified due to insufficient funds.

Not long after the burial, there was a rumor in Luoyang: Emperor Han originally planned to pass on the throne to his youngest son, Liu Xie, and the imperial decree had already been written.It was only in order to cling to Empress He that Shi Changshi falsified the content of the edict, which allowed Liu Bian to ascend the throne.

This kind of gossip is known to be tricky if you think about it casually, but it turned out to be a hot topic in Luoyang. Obviously someone is behind the scenes to promote this public opinion.And Jian Shuo, who is Liu Hong's diehard but has no brains, actually believed this rumor.

For a while, he directly left the camp of the ten permanent servants, but he did not join the camp of Yuan Clan or He Jin, but remained neutral.This is undoubtedly the most stupid move, but he has nothing to investigate.

It took nearly two months for the news of Emperor Han's death to reach every corner of the Han Dynasty.According to the rules, the whole country is mourned, no drinking is allowed within a month, brothels are not opened, and private parties are not allowed to hold banquets.

"Your Majesty has passed away? It's very early..." Xun Biao seemed to have expected the news, but felt that it came a bit early. "I'm afraid Luoyang is in a mess now, right?"

"According to the exact information, the relationship between He Jin and Empress He is getting worse and worse! That butcher He Jin really thinks that he can take over the military and political power as a foreign relative like Dou Wu? The ancestor of Dou Wu was Dou Rong, the 32nd general of Yuntai He is a descendant, and his ancestor was a distinguished family in the Western Han Dynasty, he has this background, and He Jin is just a nouveau riche." Li Ming said disdainfully.

Even the Yuan Clan didn't dare to jump out when the Han Emperor had just passed away, but he was a nouveau riche who jumped up and down, not to mention those old aristocratic families, even ordinary scholars would look down on him.How can a general with no prestige and background be in charge of military and political power as a foreign relative?

Li Ming knew very well that when Emperor Han died, Dong Zhuo would be in charge of the central government, and then the princes would seek Dong.He has been preparing for the past two years, waiting for this moment to come.Military rations and weapons supplies, etc., have been secretly prepared.

"The new king is still young, and he still has to rely on the Empress Dowager He to take charge of the government. In the end, he has to rely on the support of the ten permanent servants. I have to say that the new king's age is really delicate. If he is younger, maybe the courtiers will suggest another person Becoming the emperor is like electing the first emperor in the past. But the new emperor is already 14 years old and has a certain ability to govern... The key is that the new emperor at this age has a special value!" Xun Biao said solemnly.

"Abdication, right? The Yuan Clan is looking forward to this day, I'm afraid it won't be a day or two! Do you think the Yuan Clan is stupid, letting the family of tens of thousands of years be improper, and insisting on fighting for that thankless position? !” Li Ming sneered.

With the background of the Yuan Clan, as long as he retreats to the background with peace of mind, he can survive for tens of millions of years.But it was mixed in, and it seemed that it split into two factions, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao. As a result, with the fall of the two, the Yuan Clan gradually declined.

After the Battle of Guandu, it seemed that Cao Cao was even cheaper, giving him the foundation to truly dominate the world.

"You don't understand!" Xun Biao shook his head, "Once you become a ruler, you will naturally be blessed with the luck of the country, and this luck will benefit future generations. Achievement. As for the risk, for the clan, it is just sacrificing a collateral descendant!"

When Xun Biao said that, Li Ming seemed to understand. No wonder the Li family in Longxi recognized Li Shimin as a descendant of the Li family, and the Yang family would actually come forward to establish a Sui Dynasty.With the eyes of the powerful family, can they not see how painful it is to be the emperor?In the end, he still threw himself into it without hesitation, without enough benefits, of course it was impossible!
"The other thing is internal money!" Xun Biao continued, "Most of it is indeed privately owned by the royal family, but isn't there any part of it fed back to the family? One can imagine the wealth of the whole country's feedback to the family. How much money was invested in the past, the children of the family After ascending to the throne, they will be returned ten times and a hundred times, and even have the right to occupy the cultivation methods and martial arts above the prefecture level, how many people do you think can stand such a temptation?!"

"The Xun family doesn't intend to fight?" Li Ming looked at Xun Biao.

"Haha, the Xun family has had no chance of ascending the throne since the Han Dynasty dominated Confucianism. Those Confucian scholars would not agree, and the Confucian children would not allow the orthodox successors of Legalism to ascend the throne. So we can only retreat behind the scenes, but Because of this, the emperors of all dynasties will trust us, think about it, it’s not bad!" Xun Biao smiled, and could hear the reluctance in it, but the matter has come to this point, so there is nothing to do.

"Okay, so the Yuan faction will definitely make a move, how do you think they will make a move?" Li Ming felt that the topic was off topic.

"Instigating He Jin and the eunuch's internal strife, and then reaping the benefits of the fisherman, the Yuan clan has a good foundation, but it is still a bit tricky to make a move. It is self-contradictory to gain benefits and hope to gain fame. In our It seems that the Yuan Clan is actually a half-lord and has the potential to become a king, but whether he has the destiny to become a king is another matter." Xun Biao sneered.

If you really want to say that, it seems to be the case, whether it is Yuan Shao or Yuan Shu, they are all people who want to save face and suffer.I have to sigh with emotion, the Xun family is quite accurate in judging people!
At the same time, in the Hanzhong Palace in Hanzhong County, Liu Ting had received the news more than a month ago, when Liu Hong had just passed away.Not just news, but also a huge fortune.

"You say that, do you want me to help my younger brother with power?" Liu Ting said a little dejectedly. At eighteen years old, he looks like a handsome gentleman, and he is also a handsome man who kills both men and women.

Right now, there is a box in front of him, judging from its length, it should be a sword box.

"Zhongxingjian, I didn't expect you to give me this sword that entrusts your ideal..." Liu Ting picked up the sword and muttered.

　Liu Hong once forged four precious swords, one of which was called Zhongxing Sword, but its whereabouts are unknown...
