Please give me your support - I still feel comfortable sleeping at home, haha~)
Luoyang Imperial Palace, Changle Palace, the head of the imperial family, is where the Empress Dowager He, the mother of today's emperor, lives.
The quiet and secluded environment is a little cold, showing an unconcealed loneliness, with a kind of loneliness that is like a deep boudoir fearing that no one will know it.
The Empress Dowager He has lived in seclusion in this deep palace since Liu Bian ascended the throne. She was originally the daughter of a butcher's family with a lowly background, but she never thought that one day a sparrow could fly on a branch and become a phoenix. She actually had no relationship with the emperor Liu Hong.
, so even after he died, he didn't really feel any sadness, he just put all his thoughts on his son Liu Bian.
It can be said that Empress Dowager He poured all her efforts and hopes into Liu Bian. Until now, Liu Bian finally ascended the throne successfully and barely gained the approval of the ministers in the court. She felt that she had nothing more to offer.
Feeling concerned, he practiced his Tao all day long, and actually lived a life like a Taoist nun.
It's just that she wants to ignore worldly affairs, but she cannot forget about this woman who still plays an important role in the Han Dynasty. Today, Changle Palace welcomed an uninvited guest.
The Empress Dowager He had two brothers. One was the former general He Jin, who was killed by the rebels during the Shichang Shi rebellion. The second brother came to the palace specifically to ask to see her second brother He Miao.
Three brothers and one sister, one mother, naturally have different feelings. However, the Empress Dowager He has always despised the second brother more than respected her. This is because He Miao has never been engaged in a serious job. Originally, he lived in the fish and meat village when he was not well-off, but later became a relative of the emperor and lived in Luoyang City.
He can also be called a tyrant, but relying on his own connections and the help of his brother, General He Jin, he somehow managed to take on the responsibility of the general of chariots and cavalry. He was only ranked lower than the Three Dukes, and he was regarded as an extremely popular minister.
Later, during the Shi Changshi Rebellion, He Miao was assassinated because he was suspected by He Jin's subordinates of colluding with Shi Changshi to frame He Jin, so he was assassinated and narrowly escaped with his life, but he also suffered serious injuries, leaving some sequelae.
, he has been cultivating secretly for a while, and naturally declared his death to the public. In fact, he was afraid of being assassinated again. His courage and stature could not bear it.
But this time He Miao came to the palace, naturally he had important matters to discuss with the Queen Mother He. When Tong Bing met the Queen Mother He, He Miao straight to the point pointed out his purpose of coming, and then explained a lot about why.
I would do this and so on. Of course, these words are inseparable from one topic and one person, that is Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo's recent reckless actions to abolish the establishment.
Empress Dowager He had lived in the palace for a long time without contact with the outside world. Foreign ministers did not hear the announcement and did not dare to come in. Therefore, the communication inside and outside the palace was not smooth or even blocked. As a result, Empress Dowager He knew nothing about herself before. But even if she knows now, because she is
What He Miao said made her have to express her moderate doubts - "Is this really true?"
"That's the case. How could I dare to deceive the queen? Dong Zhuo was obedient in front of the queen, but in the court, the queen didn't see his face. He went to the palace with swords and shoes, he was overbearing and disrespectful, and she didn't put her majesty away at all.
In my eyes." He Miao was afraid that Queen Mother He would not believe her, so her words were filled with sincerity that she had never seen before.
Empress Dowager He frowned slightly, but she couldn't believe it: "Second brother, don't talk nonsense. This Dong Zhuo was summoned by me to rescue him. When he asked about it the day before yesterday, he also said that he would support Bian'er. Besides, Bian'er has already been promoted to Dabao.
As a minister, how could he do such a treasonous and unethical thing?"
Seeing that his sister still didn't believe what he said, He Miao became anxious. He simply stopped calling her queen and called out: "Sister, this common man Dong Zhuo is doing one thing in front of others and another behind the scenes. He is clearly a master who cannibalizes people without spitting out their bones."
Son, how can you still trust him? Don’t be deceived by him, or you will be burdened by him!"
Queen Mother He also hesitated. Although she knew that her second brother was useless, he was still relatively trustworthy after all. However, she also had a good impression of Dong Zhuo, a big man who always showed great respect to her. Could it be that he
Were you really just doing it for yourself before?
Seeing the hesitation on Queen Mother He's face, He Miao knew that she was beginning to believe in him. It's just that a woman's temperament is hard to achieve great things, and she became hesitant on such big things. He decided to simply give another dose of strong medicine: "Sister
Do you know what kind of person Dong Zhuo is in private? He is overjoyed with success and is suspicious of others, so that's all. He is also greedy and lustful. I asked the maids in the palace, and they all said that they had seen him secretly take advantage of his sister when she was not paying attention.
Unconsciously showing lustful looks, my sister is now in her prime, isn't she afraid that she will fall into the tiger's mouth?"
"Huh, there's no way to verify this. How do I know if you are deliberately telling me something to deceive me?" Queen Mother He suddenly sneered, quite disappointed that her second brother said such a thing.
Seeing that her words had the opposite effect, He Miao suddenly became angry and said bitterly: "Sister, please don't forget, no matter how incompetent the second brother is, he will still be your second brother. We are a family. Could I still harm you?"
On the contrary, Dong Zhuo is an outsider, why does my sister trust him so much?"
This sentence finally hit Queen Mother He's weakness, making her no longer suspicious of He Miao, but suddenly suspicious of Dong Zhuo.
There is no doubt that Queen Mother He is a person who values her family, even though her eldest brother sent her into this palace regardless of her when she was still young. She faces the dim emperor Liu Hong all day long, and there are hopeless
**Life, until Liu Bian was born, was also the beginning of her real change.
Women can often be more ruthless and unscrupulous than men for some things, but at the same time, their care for the family is unmatched by men of this era. For example, when Empress Lu was in power, she granted great titles to the Lu clan, and when Empress Dowager Dou was in power,
She also vigorously supported her natal family. In Empress Dowager He's natal family, the eldest brother He Jin, who was supposed to be the most "mature", died before Liu Bian ascended the throne. The only remaining second brother, He Miao, was incompetent.
He only knew that eating, drinking and having fun was not his real job, so he let him go if the Queen Mother was disappointed in him. She also gradually cared less about her mother's family, but that didn't mean that she treated her mother's family the same as everyone else. After all, there would still be something special.
And just as He Miao said, since what her brother said has reached this point, her credibility is naturally much higher than that of outsiders.
So this time, Queen Mother He was not just confused, but wanted to find out. Although she had been cultivating herself these days, Queen Mother He had a bit of a spicy temper and acted in a fickle manner. At this moment, she was still thinking about things. Next time
He stood up immediately and said, "I'll go see Dong Zhuo and ask him face to face" and walked out of the palace.
He Miao hurriedly followed and wanted to persuade her again, but she saw Queen Mother He suddenly stopped when she had just reached the palace gate.
At this time, Queen Mother He was standing at the entrance of the corridor, and He Miao was standing behind her. She looked at the sky outside, and a red flame in the distance shone into her eyes. She asked He Miao: "Second brother, do you know what that is?"
where?"
He Miao followed and looked over, his face changed drastically at this glance, and he said in a trembling voice: "That's... that's the Yuan Mansion..."
Empress Dowager He was startled, "Yuan Mansion, isn't that the Tutor's mansion..." Then her face changed, and the fingers of her hands that were originally twisted together intertwined and flicked, showing that her heart was extremely confused.
He Miao then said in a trembling voice: "It's Thief Dong. It must be Thief Dong who attacked the Yuan Mansion." He turned to Queen Mother He, with a look of confusion and color on his face, "Queen...sister, we must hurry up, we must
We need to get rid of this traitor as soon as possible. Otherwise, he is now the fourth generation and the three princes, and next he will be our royal relatives!"
Empress Dowager He had obviously thought of this, and she had thought further than he did. But before she could speak, she was interrupted by a voice: "The traitor my uncle is talking about, who are you talking about?"
As soon as he heard this sound, He Miao trembled all over, as if an animal had encountered the most terrifying natural enemy. His throat seemed to be stuck and he couldn't make a sound. He was instantly covered in cold sweat. He looked so embarrassed.
pole.
Queen Mother He's pretty eyebrows were tightly knitted together...
This night in Luoyang City was spent in panic. In addition to the Yuan Mansion fire, there were many people who took the opportunity to escape. Some were caught and some successfully escaped through various means.
Luoyang City is more like a huge prison to them at this moment, and it may even turn into a huge tomb the next moment. If they don't escape now, how long will it take?
Dong Zhuo's attitude towards this was to eliminate evil and kill every one he caught. Since he escaped, he had to be prepared to be killed. As for why he wanted to kill them, he didn't even bother to think of an excuse. He just wanted to rebel. Anyway, now he controls the words.
Quan, so what if he is criticized by those literati and ministers? They would not dare not listen to any imperial edict sent out.
And it was also this night that Dong Zhuo and the Empress Dowager He, who had once been "friendly and mutually supportive", officially broke up with each other, and Dong Zhuo's wolf ambition finally began to emerge completely and without reservation...
