When Cao Wan, Gao Zheng and Gao Miaoniang went north on the Yongzhou Navy battleship, the Eastern Capital Court had already begun the selection of the emperor.

Although there were few people in the southern and eastern parts of the country reporting for duty, and there were only about 140 officials with two thousand stones, Dong Zhuo didn't care.

Anyway, the notice has been given. If you don’t come, you will be deemed to have given up!

Based on the last experience, this voting is only limited to those who register on time, and those who are late will be counted as abstaining.

With Dong Zhuo's current power, he adopted a man-to-man strategy and locked in more than 80 votes early.

The emperor is about to come, attracting the attention of everyone in the east capital.

But there is good news. After treatment by a miracle doctor, Queen Mother He's condition has improved greatly. The right side of her body can now move and she can write a little.

On the day of the review, behind the beaded curtain in the court hall, Queen Mother He witnessed Dong Zhuo's arrogance and domineering behavior in front of hundreds of officials.

At the same time, she watched silently as Liu Xie replaced her son and became the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

In fact, even though Dong Zhuo was dancing happily in the palace, he was still very worried about Empress Dowager He behind the bead curtain.

Empress Dowager He's fate was unprecedented, and there was hope for recovery from the stroke, which he did not expect.

In particular, the miracle doctor Hua Tuo was recommended by Liu Bei.

He even suspected that Hua Tuo had the ability to control ghosts and channel spirits, so every time he faced Zhulian, he deliberately remained extremely respectful.

At the end of the voting, Liu Bian looked dejected, while Liu Xie, who had put on the imperial uniform, was trembling and walking on thin ice.

Kneel down in front of the bead curtain and say hello to the Queen Mother.

After a while, Zhao Zhong came out from behind the bead curtain and gave Liu Xie a calligraphy.

The Queen Mother's Imperial Review: OK! Peace of mind.

The handwriting was crooked and not pretty, but Liu Xie was really smart and immediately thanked him verbally.

According to the etiquette and rules of the court, he sat on the imperial couch and accepted the worship of all officials.

The reason why most officials agreed to change the emperor this time, except for Dong Zhuo, was also due to Liu Bian's lack of morality and filial piety.

Therefore, officials clearly expressed their grievances through voting.

Liu Bian, who lost his position as emperor, was demoted to King Yu, and he could no longer wear his imperial robes. After changing his clothes, Liu Bian, with his head and ears drooping, followed his mother back to Changle Palace.

Under Hua Tuo's guidance, the maid learned the massage and blood-activating techniques, and received three recovery massages every morning, noon and evening.

At the same time, Hua Tuo also prescribed a mild decoction to clear the congestion caused by burst blood vessels in the brain.

In addition, moxibustion is used to relax muscles and activate collaterals, which can help the Queen Mother strengthen internal circulation and promote the normal operation of the body.

In this way, with a three-pronged approach, the Queen Mother's condition gradually improved, and her mood became positive.

Liu Bian regretted it so much that he knelt down in front of his mother and cried bitterly, begging for forgiveness.

After a while, Zhao Zhong wrote: "Are you aware of your mistake?"

Liu Bian was stunned, wiped his tears, and said: "Be filial to your mother, know books and understand principles, be close to virtuous ministers, and be far away from villains."

The Queen Mother asked again: "A wise minister? A villain?"

I understand very well. Tell me, who is a wise minister? Who is a villain?

"The emperor's uncle is a wise minister, while Dong Zhuo is a villain who wields power."

The Queen Mother sighed and gave two words: "Read history!"

If you can't tell the difference between good ministers and villains, how can you be an emperor? How can you govern the world?

Don't kick your legs and close your eyes by yourself. You fool, you were sold by others and you helped count the money. What evil has the old Liu family done!

Liu Bian was confused and was driven back to his palace.

Zhao Zhong announced: From now on, King Yu should read history behind closed doors until he understands the Queen Mother's problem.

Liu Bian was unconvinced and asked blankly: "Marquis Zhao Che, I..."

"Huh?"

Zhao Zhong is still very disciplined and immediately stops the other party's words.

Liu Bian also realized that he was not the emperor, so he asked aggrievedly: "What is wrong with me? The emperor's uncle is not a wise minister? Dong Zhuo is not a villain?"

Zhao Zhong chuckled and asked: "The Queen Mother asks, can His Highness Prince Yu be perfunctory and perfunctory?"

Liu Bian was shocked.

Although he didn't think Liu Bei was very virtuous, in order to seek forgiveness from his mother, he admitted that Liu Bei was a good person against his will. Unexpectedly, his mother would not rub dirt in her eyes.

"Well, Nagu said that the emperor's uncle is a villain, and the queen mother is afraid that she will be angry again."

It is rare for Zhao Zhong to give Liu Bian some advice.

"No, no, King Yu is young and it is normal not to peep into people's hearts, but to deceive the Queen Mother is a big mistake of being unfaithful and unfilial!"

"Furthermore, King Yu thinks that the emperor's uncle is a villain. Is there any evidence? Can it be made public and will the government and the public be convinced?"

Liu Bian was speechless and couldn't say a word.

Zhao Zhong lowered his voice and asked again: "King Yu, does he know why the Queen Mother sat back and watched the new emperor ascend the throne?"

"My son and minister failed to live up to expectations, and my mother was very disappointed."

"Only when the emperor is established can the court be more stable. The queen mother regards the world as her home, and everything will be prosperous if her family is harmonious! King Yu, please read history carefully! I retire, old slave."

Liu Bian was so enlightened that he watched Zhao Zhong leave blankly.

He never thought that there was such a complete story behind the establishment of the emperor.

He overestimated his own importance and underestimated his mother's generosity.

"Bring me the history books!"

Liu Bian said that he wanted to re-read what the emperors, generals and ministers of the past dynasties did and said in the history books.

Of course, Zhao Zhong only revealed a little bit about Queen Mother He's thoughts. After all, we can't ask too much of Liu Bian.

What the Empress Dowager He wants is for her son to be able to view people and things dialectically. There is no doubt that Liu Bei is a wise minister, but to a certain extent, he is also a "villain".

For example, they allowed Dong Zhuo to attack the city, even conspired with Dong Zhuo to kill Yuan Ji, and then beat Dong Zhuo to make him surrender.

This imperial uncle of the Han Dynasty regarded the court as a plaything and could definitely be regarded as a "Yihuo" type.

But, even so, what can you do?

Therefore, after understanding the difficult situation and knowing Liu Bei's true face, as the emperor of the Han Dynasty, you should not always think about confronting Liu Bei, but should make reasonable use of the rules to strive for the most favorable situation for yourself.

It is precisely because Liu Bian does not know the importance and right from wrong that he was elected.

Silly son, take a hard time and gain wisdom!

Of course, the evidence of Yuan Ji's crime was conclusive and he deserved to be punished, but in the end, the case was suppressed until after the emperor was established.

First, he approved Yuan Ji's crime, and then pardoned Yuan Ji's death penalty in the name of the new emperor's accession to the throne, dismissed him from office, and went home to reflect.

Dong Zhuo suffered the loss of being mute, but he had no choice but to ask the Public Security Bureau to release Yuan Ji.

Yuan Ji escaped death and returned to Yuan Mansion. He closed the door to thank guests and refused to open the door to anyone.

Officials at all levels who were implicated by Yuan Ji were also pardoned for their crimes and were only fined as punishment.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the Empress Dowager's skills are becoming more and more sophisticated, and she can easily resolve most of Dong Zhuo's month's hard work.

Therefore, the reputation of the Queen Mother rose rapidly after her illness improved and she "listened to politics behind the curtain".

From then on, after being called the Queen Mother of Changle, she added another title, "Queen Mother of the Curtain Curtain".

Even though the Queen Mother, the Emperor, Liu Bei, and Dong Zhuo were harmonious but different, fighting but not breaking up, asking for leave and not going to the emperor's uncle who was hiding in another courtyard for his honeymoon, they became more and more important in the hearts of all the big guys.

However, one of the emperor's uncle's father-in-laws, the servant Wang Yun, recently received an important job.

The Prime Minister's Yamen, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, is responsible for overseas affairs, and is commonly known as Dahonglu.

Wang Yun usurped Han Fu's authority, which made Han Fu extremely depressed and refused to go to court because of illness.

Not only was Wang Yun promoted, but several of the Wang family's descendants and nephews were awarded official positions such as Minister-in-Chief and Cavalry Commander. For a time, the Wang family seemed to have become a hot new aristocrat in the Eastern Capital.
