1.56 Hand in hand
Talk about friendship with eunuchs, and do nothing more.
How could Empress Dowager Dou not know? It was just a statement that followed the trend, so how could she take it seriously?
Sure enough, after pondering for a moment, Cheng Huang declined: "I have not been in the palace for a long time, and I have no intention of everything. I can't reopen the party and bribery."
This statement is not as expected by Empress Dowager Dou: "After the Yellow Turbans, a group of thieves rose up. The court is at the right time to employ people. If the party is not opened, the employer will be based on the merits. How to correct the situation."
Cheng Huang bowed again: "What the Empress Dowager said is so much. Why don't you be in your position and not do your own affairs? Forgive old slaves, you are useless."
Just as he was about to bid farewell, Empress Dowager Dou said again: "Let's go."
"What else does the Queen Mother have?"
"Since the old man knew the old things in the previous dynasty, he didn't know how to know this thing." After saying that, a confidant palace maid took out a plate from behind the curtain.
The things on the plate were covered with white silk and placed in front of Cheng Huang.
The white silk is spread flat in the plate without any protrusions. Obviously, the plate must be filled with thin objects such as letters.
Cheng Huang thought to himself for a long time, but still couldn't help but feel curious.
Then he stretched out his two fingers, gently clamped the edge, and slowly spread the white silk.
I was stunned at first. I waited to see what was in the dish. I couldn't help but tremble all over and sweat like raindrops.
"I'm guilty of death!" He crawled on the ground, shaking like a sieve. He was trapped!
"What do you have to do with the elder?" Behind the curtain, Empress Dowager Dou's tone was still gentle: "I am honest. Why don't you take advantage of this moment to reveal your thoughts?"
"Old slave, old slave, old slave..." But for some reason, I was shocked and in my heart, and there seemed to be wildfire burning my heart. Crisis, crisis, opportunity in crisis!
"Since that's the case, please tell the Queen Mother... the cause of the consequences and the truth." Cheng Huang held his trembling wrist hard, then closed the white silk with his fingers. After the contents in the plate were covered, a breath of turbid air grew.
"Sir, come close." Empress Dowager Dou said.
"I'm going to take the order!" I didn't dare to get up, so I leaned on the ground and crawled. I waited for my head to touch the curtains, and then I was prostrated again. The movement was done in one go, who said that I was old?
Behind the curtain, Empress Dowager Dou also leaned forward slightly and whispered to Cheng Huang.
"Hiss--" Even though Cheng Huang, who was old and stronger, took a breath of cold air.
After suppressing his fear, he asked in a trembling voice: "The Queen Mother... wants to avenge his family."
"This is one of them." Empress Dowager Dou told her.
"I dare to ask the Queen Mother, is there any other thing?" As soon as he said that, Cheng Huang suddenly woke up.
"The second is the Han Dynasty's country and country." As expected, Cheng Huang did not expect. Hearing this, the wildfire in his heart suddenly disappeared.
Empress Dowager Dou whispered: "I have no descendants from the late emperor. There is no difference between whom I support to succeed to the throne. Therefore, I gave this 'the merit of following the dragon'. I wonder if the elders are willing to receive it?"
"Old slave, old slave..." Cheng Huang was choked for a moment.
"My elder is over 60 years old. He still has ten years of wealth. But he doesn't know that for ten years of glory, he is willing to give it a try."
Empress Dowager Dou's heartfelt words can be said to have hit the nail on the head.
How many decades can you have in your life? You have been in great power and have been dormant for ten years. If you can regain your power and take over again, it will be a disaster of beheading, so why fear?
"This matter should be hidden." Cheng Huang looked at the harem maid from the curtain: "There are several 'central doctors' in the inner world, and they should silence them."
Empress Dowager Dou replied: "The people around me are all from the Dou family. They are like brothers and sisters. You can rest assured, sir."
Volume 2 of "East Han Huiyao" "Inner Job": "Empress Deng was in charge of the government for a long time, and the palace maids came and went in and out, and all his elders were called "Zhongdafu"."
Cheng Huang crawled backwards, stood up and kowtowed: "I dare not obey my order!"
He then said: "I am not the only one who can reopen the Party and the corruption. We need to attract strong support from both inside and outside to help."
"With the help of the elder, this matter will be accomplished." Empress Dowager Dou pointed out again: "You can go and discuss with Da Changqiu."
"Cao Jie?" Cheng Huang frowned when he heard the sound. He said that he had fallen into this way, so he thanked Cao Jie for how he could form an alliance with him.
Empress Dowager Dou advised: "This is different from the past. Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others called the Ten Eunuchs, and they were forced to do so. Cao Jie was gradually isolated and helpless. When he went there, he should ignore his past grudges and join forces to the outside world."
"What the Empress Dowager said is very much." Cheng Huang suddenly realized: "The old slave took his leave."
"Step bye."
Leave the bedroom and go to the cloud.
Cheng Huang, be sincere and trepidated.
I suddenly woke up halfway. Then I pretended to be dejected and panting. I walked hard and walked down the flat ground.
He was old and dying, staggering and heading towards the carriage parked outside the palace gate.
It was not until they were helped onto the carriage and drove out of the palace. The little yellow gate that was secretly monitored all the way, and then they scattered like birds and beasts. They went back, adding fuel to the fire, and reported carefully without mentioning it.
The next day, Mrs. Cheng was called back by her father again.
"What's the matter with my father calling me?"
"There is indeed something that you want to do. Come here with your ears."
"Why is it so secret?" Mrs. Cheng did not doubt that he was there, so she listened closely.
"Why is this?" After listening to his adoptive father's words carefully, Mrs. Cheng couldn't help frowning.
"It is related to your life and death. The Cheng family has been rich for ten years. We must check it carefully." Cheng Huang reminded: "This matter is very important, so don't leak the news."
"My daughter is awake." Mrs. Cheng realized at this time that it was of great importance.
"Go quickly and return quickly." Cheng Huang said loudly.
Mrs. Cheng didn't dare to delay, so she returned to the palace.
The capital of Ji Kingdom, the main palace of the royal palace.
The Double Ninth Festival just passed. In the Ji Kingdom, the king and his ministers were united and happy.
The so-called "four-season court uniforms" refer to spring, summer, autumn and winter. On the Double Ninth Festival, the princess and princesses rewarded the ministers with winter court uniforms. Today, the court meeting will change to the old ones, and the atmosphere will be refreshed.
Although "clothes are not as good as new, and people are not as good as old." However, such as Lou Sang Ling Le Yin, Li Cheng Ling Guo Zhi, etc., who have been officials in Ji State for a long time, they have accumulated a lot of court uniforms in all seasons. They often mix the old and the old, which has attracted the envy of all officials.
Especially the first dynasty wards became more and more precious.
Therefore, those who wear the first dynasty robes are particularly sensible.
Lou Sang was the place where King Ji started his family, and it was not an exaggeration to say that wealth could rival a country. Lou Sang ordered Le Yin to be the first to pay a salary of 1,000 stones. The prince and the concubine were also called "Le Gong", which shows that.
The news that Ji State had added three counties was reported, Luoyang had been quickly returned. Geng Yong, the right prime minister, announced in the hall. All officials were very happy.
"To combine nine counties, it can be called a great country." Leyin stood up and congratulated.
"What Le Gong said is very true." Jidu Yin Lou Gui also replied: "The three counties are vast and thousands of miles away. Gaoyang City is strong and thick, and can be a big city in Ji'nan. New North is bounded with the waters, and it is strategically important. There are large zones under Wen'an, which is extremely beneficial to the military farm. The merger of the three counties can supplement the strategic depth of Ji's country's 'long east and narrow north and south'. It is of great benefit to the country."
"It's worthy of being me, Ji Duyin." Le Yin sighed happily.
All officials nodded one after another. Although the six masters of Ji State were not in the middle of the country, there were Lou Gui, Zhong Yao, Beihai Yilong, Er Cui, Yingchuan Five Heroes, etc., who were resourceful and could be called "think tanks".
Moreover, the generals of the shogunate were also on the expedition. Ji State still had six schools with double walls, which could be protected. If we included the Western Regions Protectorate, the King of Ji actually had three teams under his command.
Can national strength be said to be in full swing?
The world's general trend will be divided after a long time of unity, and long time of division will be combined. Now the Han energy has been exhausted. Heaven is about to change, who can promote the Han Dynasty three times and be my King of Ji?
"After the Yellow Turbans were destroyed, the court ordered the six kings of Jizhou to return to their country and eat. We asked the princesses to decide, and the princess decided." Cui Jun, the prime minister of the Left Kingdom, stood up and reported.
"The six countries are in harmony with me. Although the Yellow Turbans were destroyed, thieves rose up. The black mountain and white waves had a convergence, so we must be guarded. The rewards and punishments in the court have not been decided, and it is not known whether the six kings can be safe and sound. I wrote a letter to Longyou and asked King Ji to decide." The prince's concubine said.
