Days are everlasting

Although Empress He was born in a butcher's family, she also knew that choosing a concubine for her son was the first priority.

It's impossible not to pay attention to her family background, because of her background, Liu Bian has been criticized for so many years, she is not as good as Liu Xie whose mother's family is a famous Wang family.

The He family is now ruthless, and wants to find a good enough lady from a famous family for his son.

Of course, the premise is that the age must be suitable, otherwise, no matter how famous a lady is, it's useless!

Liu Bian didn't really care about this. If his mother chose Tang Ji who was with him in his previous life in this life, he would treat her well and live up to her; if Tang Ji didn't choose Tang Ji in this life, in fact, for her Maybe it's still a good thing.

The emperor did not arrange for Liu Bian to go to court to listen to politics. Like Liu Xie, he was still receiving the teachings of his master.

Of course, their schoolwork is very relaxed, and most of the time in a day can be arranged independently.

The relationship between Liu Xie and Liu Bian is not good, but it is not bad.

Liu Bian is older than Liu Xie, and his schoolwork is heavier than his, but he usually doesn't pay attention to his studies. Now that he is reborn, although he also intends to overwhelm Liu Xie, he doesn't pay much attention to his schoolwork. .

Poetry is well done, but governing the country is not necessarily good; as for the way of governing the country taught by the ministers, are they the emperor?

Liu Bian knew it well. Compared with the many ministers who were biased towards Liu Xie in his memory—including the masters who taught them articles and lessons—he believed in some conclusions drawn by later scientific research and archaeology.

As for the rise and fall of the dynasty, and how to turn the tide, posterity always gave a solution.

No matter how uncertain you are, it's better than being helpless like a headless chicken.

Because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, coupled with Taichang Liu Yanjin's words that "the governor, the prefect, and the officials are bribed to become officials, and the common people are expropriated, resulting in rebellion. You can choose to clean up the famous and important ministers as Mu Bo, and Zhen'an Fangxia", which eventually led to the emperor's decree A decision was made to ruin the Han Dynasty—changing the governor to the state shepherd and delegating the power of the generals, resulting in a large number of local soldiers and their own governance. In the end, all the heroes became powerful and competed in the Central Plains, and the Han Dynasty revived by Emperor Guangwu fell apart.

Of course, this terrible proposal will be put forward by Taichang Liu Yan in March of the fifth year of Zhongping, and it will be adopted quickly after that.

Maybe the emperor knows that this is drinking poison to quench thirst, but does he really care?

Even if he is the father of Liu Bian, the emperor who pioneered the method of earning money by selling officials and nobles, Liu Bian can't go against the facts and praise him.

Emperor Liu Hong's most trusted and trusted confidant in his later years was Jian Shuo, the person who wanted to kill Liu Bian and let Liu Xie succeed him. How much of Jian Shuo's thoughts belonged to Liu Hong?

Liu Bian couldn't imagine it.

Perhaps Liu Xie is the favorite of Liu Hong, but Liu Bian is the eldest son, and there are many ministers in the court who support the eldest son inheritance system.

Although after being deposed by Dong Zhuo in his previous life, Liu Bian had seen clearly the true colors of the ministers in the court after the two disasters of party imprisonment. In fact, Liu Bian believes that the princes of the court will not let him down.

Of course, later generations commented that the Han Dynasty was a dynasty that was plagued by foreign relatives and eunuchs. Liu Bian, who had a great general He Jin as his uncle, now had to win over the eunuchs.

Those who make big things don't stick to small details, and Cao Cao, Emperor Wu of Wei, is not the adopted grandson of an eunuch!

Emperor Liu Hong canonized twelve middle-ranking servants at one go. Of course, for the sake of sounding better, it is not a problem to collectively call them "Ten Regular Attendants".

Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong are the leaders of the "ten regular servants". A famous saying that the emperor Liu Hong will remember for later generations is "Zhang Changshi is my father, and Zhao Changshi is my mother".

Their goals are too obvious, and there are too many people attached to them. Even though Liu Bian is the prince, there is nothing that they value particularly.

More importantly, these two are complete social moths. Even if Liu Bian is willing to get close to eunuchs, he still wants to find useful people to get close to.

Invented "papermaking", one of the so-called four great inventions of later generations, produced white paper—of course, it actually improved papermaking—that is, Cai Lun, who is called "Caihou Paper" today, although He is also a eunuch, and he was able to be named a Marquis mainly because his political choice was correct, but, no matter what, he has been immortalized for this achievement!

Among the powerful ten permanent attendants, Bi Lan is the one who makes Liu Bian look up to him.

Bi Lan is in charge of fortifications. According to the division of the system of three provinces and six ministries in later generations, he belongs to the kind of talent that should be assigned to the Ministry of Industry. The "rollover" he made is the predecessor of an important agricultural tool in later generations, the keel waterwheel, which is used for irrigation. The farmland is quite effective. Even now, turning over the car to "sprinkle the roads in the south and north suburbs, saving the cost of roads for the people", can be regarded as benefiting the people.

It doesn't matter if there are shortcomings, but I'm afraid that there are a lot of shortcomings and no advantages at all.

Bi Langui was a regular attendant of the Central Committee and was made a marquis by the emperor Liu Hong. He was also a very busy person on weekdays. Although Liu Bian was the eldest son of the emperor and had a high status, he was not always able to see him whenever he wanted.

But it doesn't matter, Liu Bian can curve to save the country.

There are many maids in the palace, but not many are favored by the emperor, so eunuchs and maids form a "husband and wife", which is called "opposite food".

Bi Lan also had a maid in the palace to serve as "counter food". Liu Bian didn't remember, but the little eunuch Wang An beside him knew a thing or two.

The age difference between Wang An and Liu Bian was not much different. At the beginning, Empress He specially chose a young eunuch who was not much older than Liu Bian to accompany him by his side.

Not long after Liu Bian returned to the palace from the folk historian, Wang An came to accompany him. It can be said that Wang An is among Liu Bian's most trusted people.

In the previous life, when Liu Bian was poisoned to death by Dong Zhuo's men with poisonous wine, all the eunuchs around him were wiped out together, and Wang An was one of the few eunuchs who took the initiative to die.

The rest, even if they were begging for mercy, because of the eunuch's "reputation" in the big man, they were all given to death in the end.

Wang Anhao inquired about the news, it was when Liu Bian just returned to the palace, he was frightened, even Empress He didn't dare to ask casually about some things, so she had to ask Wang An about her faults.

It is precisely because of Liu Bian's need that Wang An faintly has the tendency of "Hundred Xiaosheng" as later generations said.

The reason why Liu Bian chose Bi Lan was not only that he was one of the ten permanent servants who was fairly talented, but also because he had a good attitude towards Liu Bian.

In the previous life, when Liu Bian was dragged out of the palace by the ten permanent servants, Bi Lan was the one who tried his best to save him the face of the emperor. He was the kindest one among the ten permanent servants who treated Liu Bian.

After Liu Bian questioned Wang An, he got a news that surprised him.

The court lady who was eating with Bi Lan was an acquaintance of Liu Bian, Zhang Shi, a courtesan in Empress Changqiu Palace.

When Liu Bian had just returned to the palace, Mrs. Zhang, as one of the maids who were valued by the queen at that time, was specially selected to take care of Liu Bian, so Liu Bian was quite close to her.

Later, she was promoted by Empress He to a fourth rank female official.

Liu Bian has always been very surprised that although Mrs. Zhang is honored as an aunt because of her rank, she is not very old, and the emperor Liu Hong can be regarded as a vegetarian. Empress He's jealousy, and she trusted her to make her a graceful female official of Changqiu Palace.

But now, Liu Bian knew the reason.

It turned out that Mrs. Zhang and Bi Lan, one of the ten permanent attendants, had already formed an anti-food relationship, and once the anti-food relationship in the palace was formed, it was rarely changed.

In his previous life, Liu Bian didn't know the inside story - after all, the palace ladies belonged to the emperor's women, and they formed a rivalry with the eunuchs, and it was fine in private. When the trouble became big, even the emperor's face was not good, so she mostly kept it from her. The relationship between the emperor and the emperor's grandson—but in this life, he wants to make good use of the relationship between Bi Lan and the Zhang family.

Empress He trusts Zhang Shi because she has no threat to her, does not admire the emperor, and is able to make friends with Bi Lan, one of the ten permanent attendants.

Wang An was able to inquire about this news, no doubt because he was Liu Bian's eunuch, and the people in Changqiu Palace were not very prepared for him - and it was very likely that Liu Bian asked him to inquire about this news. Got it, will it be revealed to his father?

Liu Bian was not so stupid as to go directly to Zhang, and make friends with Bi Lan through her.

Compared with Empress He, for Liu Bian who had just returned to the palace from Shi Daoren at that time, Mrs. Zhang, who had been inseparable and took care of her since he returned to the palace, was more like a mother.

Because of this, he understands that those emperors in later generations who would consecrate their wet nurses as holy wives, holy wives, etc. as soon as they ascended the throne, Oedipus complex and empathy are normal.

"Wang An, report to your mother and tell me that I'm not feeling well." Liu Bian half-lyed on his bed and told Wang An.

"Follow orders, Your Highness."

This is not to say that Liu Bian is pretending to be sick to find a reason for himself, but that he really feels uncomfortable.

He himself has just recovered from a serious illness, and the soul that has been wandering for so many years suddenly returned to his body, it is inevitable that he is not used to it. His current symptoms are similar to those in some novels of later generations, when the protagonist accepts something like inheritance After receiving a lot of information, the soul is overwhelmed, and it affects the body somewhat similarly.

Not long after, Empress He rushed over in a hurry, and yelled for "doctor" as soon as she arrived. She simply remembered that Liu Bian was unwell, and slowly weakened her voice.

Ask Liu Bian to say that his mother's queen will not come, and he is still his own son. When his mother came to visit him later, his behavior was not very decent, and he couldn't blame his father for treating her too much after Liu Xie's biological mother, Wang Meiren, died. I miss it.

But his queen mother was bad on the bright side, and wanted to kill Wang Meiren, but she drugged her openly, without any concealment, so there was no need to worry about her being a femme fatale.

As a biological son, in terms of treating his mother and queen, according to later generations, Liu Bian has some wrong views. He is not ashamed of this, but proud of it.

The author has something to say: the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty was really okay, the Gui Dynasty was really chaotic... It's okay to fight with eunuchs and relatives, let's talk about food...

Cao Cao's father, Cao Song, was the adopted son of the great eunuch Cao Teng. Cao Teng is said to be a descendant of Cao Can, the famous prime minister of the Western Han Dynasty.

It is said that since Cao Teng entered the palace since he was a child, he had a rivalry with a court lady Wu, and later he was named Gao Emperor by Wei Wendi Cao Pi, so Wu became Cao Wei's Gao Empress... The eunuch is also very good at doing this Ah, the only eunuch who was posthumously named emperor in ancient and modern times!
