There were bursts of laughter from time to time in the Luoyang Royal Palace and the Imperial Garden.

Emperor Xian was sitting in a pavilion, playing with some wood-carved toys in his hand, and enjoying it.

And beside him, two civil officials wearing wise crowns were bowing to serve.

"Fun, fun..."

Emperor Xian pieced together these wooden blocks with mortise and tenon, sometimes putting together them into a horse, and sometimes making them into a car, making the more fun they played.

"Okay, good stuff, I like it."

Emperor Xian was very happy to see his "work".

The two civil officials smiled flatteringly and said, "It's good that your Majesty likes it. I'll take a lot of thought. If you can win your Majesty's joy, I'll be happy."

Emperor Xian stood up, patted the soil on his body, and looked at the two ministers in front of him who were even taller than him even if they were bent.

"As these days, you two are playing with me, and you can always send some toys that I have never seen before. I will reward you well, and I will decide to promote your official position."

Unexpectedly, when the two of them heard this, they not only did not have any surprises, but instead showed panic and knelt down on the spot.

"Your Majesty, no."

Emperor Xian was very puzzled: "I am the emperor. Since you two have made contributions, what's wrong with rewarding me?"

One of them said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten? The current situation is in the hands of the general..."

"So what? Although the general treats me harshly, I am a little displeased, but he is finally respectful and abides by his duties as a minister. I have never personally named someone else's official position. This time I will start with you two."

Emperor Xian said it for granted, but the two of them became even more scared.

"I dare not accept it even if I die. Please take it back."

"Well? Why are you two so scared when they mention the general?"

The two looked at each other and said, "I am not afraid of myself, but of Your Majesty."

After he said this, Emperor Xian even more confused.

"You must make this clear today. How do you worry about me?"

The two of them crawled forward on their knees.

"Your Majesty has lived in the deep palace for a long time. He did not know what the General did outside the palace, so he mistakenly believed what he was a loyal minister. In fact, the General never took His Majesty seriously, but His Majesty never interfered in the affairs of the court. All the affairs in the court were covered by the General's hands. Therefore, he temporarily acted like a minister in front of you to deceive the hearts of the people in the world."

"You... don't talk nonsense..."

Emperor Xian suddenly felt a chill in his heart when he said this.

In his mind, although Liu He was much better than Dong Zhuo, it would be absolutely false to say that he had no fear in his heart when facing such an emperor who controlled the government and was full of majesty.

Another person also quickly added: "Yes, the general pretended to be kind and moral in the court, but outside the palace, he was arrogant and domineering. He was even more unscrupulous in his own army, and even heard...he heard..."

Speaking of this, he seemed very scared. Not only did he not continue talking, but his whole body trembled violently.

"Oh, what did you hear? Tell me quickly."

Emperor Xian urged impatiently.

"I... I heard that the general was supported by all the generals in the military camp, and even often... he often called him Long Live and enjoyed the emperor's ceremonial guard..."

"How dare he do this!"

Emperor Xian had no doubts and was immediately furious.

"Your Majesty, please calm down your anger."

"Yes, then Liu He controls the government. As long as His Majesty is at peace with his own affairs, he will never attack His Majesty. But if His Majesty reveals a hint of wanting to interfere in the government affairs, it is hard to guarantee that he will not take the blame for the world and take risks..."

Emperor Xian felt cold all over his body when he heard this.

"He...he dares not..."

But he didn't even have any confidence in saying this sentence himself.

"I am just worried about Your Majesty. Your Majesty can be happy for a while. Even if I die, I will be in peace. But now the general is in power, and Your Majesty cannot be an enemy."

The two of them kowtowed constantly while talking, inexplicably tragic.

Emperor Xian's face was very entangled.

"But... I can't wait to die. The general fought south and north and made more military achievements. This time, his four-way army went on a war. After all his generals returned to Luoyang, he would definitely be rewarded. At that time, the general would be asked to go further and become a great sage, and even a king. He was a descendant of the Liu family. If this continues, I will be removed by him in a few years."

Emperor Xian was a child under ten years old after all. At this moment, he felt more and more afraid and fearful as he spoke. Finally, he sat on a horse he had just made with those wooden blocks, and immediately crushed the wooden blocks.

At this time, the two ministers suddenly raised their heads and looked at Emperor Xian with tears in their faces.

"If Your Majesty really has this intention, I have a solution and I would like to give it a try for Your Majesty."

Emperor Xian was like he had caught a life-saving straw.

"What's the solution? Tell me quickly."

One of them crawled to Emperor Xian and lowered his voice.

"I heard the news that the General had clashed with many ministers abroad these days. He was domineering and avenged his personal revenge, which angered many colleagues. They had long wanted to join forces to fight, but the General was very powerful and did not dare to act rashly for a while. If Your Majesty is interested, I am willing to contact you, fight for the power of the ministers for Your Majesty, and then discuss the best opportunity to eliminate Liu He and help Your Majesty in power."

"What's really?"

When Emperor Xian first heard this, he was also a little excited. But then, his expression began to hesitate and panic again.

"But... the general held heavy troops, the imperial guards in the palace, and the defenders inside and outside Luoyang City were his confidants, and they were even stronger than Dong Zhuo's momentum back then. If this matter is leaked..."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. It is precisely because he has many soldiers and a wide range of generals that he has always been pretentious and does not take us or even His Majesty seriously, so he will not be wary at all. Now, from the small Huangmen to the Central Changshou in the palace, none of them are Liu He's people. After that, no matter what we say or do in the palace, they will never leak it even if they hear a few words. As for planning outside, there will be Chen Ji, Yuan Shao, Wei Ji and other ministers, they will not make any mistakes."

When Emperor Xian heard this, his face turned worries into joy, and he was inexplicably excited.

"Okay, you are really loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty. If Liu He can be eliminated, I will definitely live up to all the ministers."

"However, Your Majesty should not be careless. In these days, you should still keep the same as before, having fun all day long and slacking off on Liu He's heart. After you make a decision, you will come and tell Your Majesty immediately."

"I remember what I say in my heart. My life and death, my life and death, and the honor and disgrace of the Han Dynasty are all related to the bodies of all the ministers."

Emperor Xian looked at the two "loyal ministers" in front of him, and was extremely excited, but he didn't see the treacherous smile on his face after they lowered their heads.
