Liu Cheng looked at Kong Rong and sneered, walked to him and knelt down and said: "Master Kong, you have been inattentive since you took office as General Hu Ben Zhonglang.
It is reasonable for the palace guards to have defense loopholes.
Maybe this time It was really your dereliction of duty that what happened.
Since you apologized, why not go and stay in the prison of Tingwei Mansion?
You see how embarrassed you are for His Majesty, right?"
"I, General Hu Ben, are nothing but empty airs.
Unless the military power of the Huben Army is controlled by you, Liu Cheng, my words are of no use.
Who of the people below will listen to me?
Do you think I am willing to leave things alone?
I have to be able to control them."
Kong Rong felt resentful in his heart, and with a bitter look on his face, he stood up and said: "The general is right, I will go and stay in the prison of Tingwei Mansion now."
Honest people are honest people.
The reason why honest people are easy to bully is not because they are timid or weak, but because they accept death.
If they are wrong, they are wrong, and they will never quibble or resist.
"Wait a minute!"
Ma Rixi shouted and stood in front of Kong Rong.
He stood up and interceded for Kong Rong: "Your Majesty, Kong Wenju is a scholar and does not know military affairs.
It is actually inappropriate for him to serve as a tiger and a brave general. .
There was a fire in the palace last night.
Hou's death is indeed a great misfortune in the world.
However, it has not been found out whether it was a man-made fire or a natural disaster.
It seems inappropriate to find someone to take responsibility now.
The veteran believes that we should find out the truth of the matter first before taking any action.
It’s not too late to deal with it” Although Kong Rong was a bit pedantic, he still had many connections in the court.
After Ma Rixi came out to plead for mercy, several ministers came forward to plead for mercy.
Liu Cheng watched these actors come on stage one by one with cold eyes, and kept sneering in his heart.
The Queen Mother is dead, but these people can ignore the fact that the Queen Mother is dead and shamelessly stand up to plead for Kong Rong.
The Queen Mother's death is as if it is just death.
Like an ordinary palace maid Liu Bian had no idea.
At this time, he was frightened and didn't know what to do.
He couldn't help but look at Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng nodded gently to him and said, "What you said makes sense.
Although my mother passed away, I am very sad."
I can’t help myself, but I can’t punish the minister indiscriminately.
It’s better to investigate the matter clearly and then deal with it.
As for the investigation,” Liu Cheng was worried that Liu Bian did not know the power structure of the DPRK and China, and could not distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, so he immediately stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I suggest that Henan Yin investigate this time, and Tingwei Mansion sends personnel to supervise it."
Liu Bencheng originally wanted to suggest that Luoyang County be responsible for the investigation, but the level of Luoyang County is too low, and the gods of all walks of life may not buy it.
Henan Yin Huangwan is different.
This person is talented and senior enough.
He has served as a shepherd in Yuzhou.
However, this person also had many weaknesses in his character, so Liu Chengcai thought of asking Tingwei Mansion to send someone to supervise him.
Liu Bian immediately said: "According to Liu Qing's words, Ma Taichang will leave the funeral of the Queen Mother to you and arrange it as soon as possible."
"Follow the decree" "I'm tired.
If nothing happens, please retreat."
Zhao Chun immediately shouted: "Retreat from the DPRK" The ministers shouted long live, sent Liu Bian off, and then dispersed.

Liu Cheng was about to ask Liu Bian to explain something, and Liu Bian happened to send a eunuch to announce him.
He followed the eunuch to the Nuang Pavilion of Jiade Hall to pay homage to Liu Bian.
When Liu Bian saw Liu Cheng coming in, he immediately went to greet him and cried: "Liu Qing, my mother has died.
What should I do?
I am so scared.
Will Dong Zhuo rebel?
Will other ministers rebel?"
Liu Cheng hurriedly comforted: "Your Majesty, don't worry.
Your Majesty has lost his mother and you still have ministers here.
I will keep you safe.
In fact, I am also a member of the clan, but my family has long been in decline.
If you really think about it, your Majesty should call me uncle."
With an army of 20,000, as long as I am here, no one will harm your Majesty."
"Liu Qing is also a member of the clan.
Come and call Zongzheng Liu Ai, and ask him to bring the family tree."
Liu Bian immediately shouted outside.
For him, Liu Cheng is a member of the clan.
He came at the right time.
He was the master of the six gods.
When he felt helpless, he heard that Liu Cheng was still his uncle, so he felt that he should implement the matter immediately.
He was still the closest to him by blood at all times.
Liu Ai quickly came over with the genealogy, and Liu Bian immediately said: "Liu Ai, according to the right general, he is actually a member of the clan.
Please check the genealogy quickly."
"Nuo" Liu Ai agreed, looked at Liu Cheng and asked: "May I ask the general who his ancestors are?"
Liu Cheng thought for a while and said: "The ancestral tablet enshrined in my home says Liu Pengli, King of Jidong, and I don't know the other names.
The name of my ancestor is taboo, and the name of my father is taboo."
Liu Bian immediately said to Liu Ai: "Check it quickly."
Liu Ai did not look at the genealogy, and said to Liu Bian: "Your Majesty, the right general does have royal blood, but..."
Liu Bian said angrily: "But if you have anything to say, just say it."
Liu Ai hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, the right general is the descendant of Jidong King Liu Pengli, the grandson of Emperor Wen and the son of Liang Wang Liu Wu.
However, the genealogy records that Jidong King Liu Pengli often gathered slaves and desperate youths.
He killed and robbed people at night and took pleasure in it.
Later, the victim's son wrote a letter to report, and an official petitioned to kill King Jidong.
Emperor Jing couldn't bear it, so he deposed King Liu Pengli of Jidong as a commoner and demoted him to Shangyong."
Now that he has been deposed as a commoner, his status as a clan must be gone, and his descendants will no longer be recorded in the genealogy.
Liu Bian was stunned after hearing this, but he immediately said: "General You is now the Marquis of Anyi, and he has the merits of rescuing and protecting you.
I intend to restore his status as a clan member, record it in the genealogy, and respect him as the emperor's uncle.
Zong Zheng What do you think?”
"This" Liu Ai was confused.
Is this kind of operation possible?
"Is this possible?"
Liu Bian took the initiative for a rare moment and said, "It's OK if I say it, that's it."
Liu Ai saw that Liu Bian's tone was firm and Liu Cheng was present.
He was not willing to offend a general with a heavy army for no reason, so he immediately agreed: "I will do it now."
After Liu Ai left, Liu Bian said to Liu Cheng: "Uncle Emperor, the civil and military forces in this dynasty are all jackals, tigers and leopards.

There is no one who is truly trustworthy.
I only believe in the Emperor Uncle.
From now on, I can only rely on the Emperor Uncle."
Liu Cheng immediately bowed down and bowed.
The proper etiquette must still be observed.
He was not an arrogant person, even in front of a cowardly person like Liu Bian.
He said: "Although I have the merit of saving you, But it is only because of the trust between Your Majesty and the Queen Mother that we are here today.
But please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will never allow traitors to harm Your Majesty as long as I am with you."
"With the words of the emperor uncle, I feel relieved."
Liu Bian pulled Liu Cheng to sit down and sighed: "To be honest with the emperor uncle, I am actually not willing to be the emperor.
I also know that I am not the material to be the emperor." , in fact, my brother-in-law is much more suitable than me. , but my younger brother is younger than me.
Although he is smarter than me, he is still young.
Even if I give up the throne, he is no match for those ministers, especially Dong Zhuo, who is too domineering.
Uncle, what should I do?”
Liu Cheng thought for a while and said to Liu Bian: "Your Majesty, the current situation is very unfavorable to your Majesty and your ministers.
The Queen Mother passed away too suddenly.
Your Majesty is young and does not understand government affairs, and his mind is not on this.
In government affairs, In private, I can still serve His Majesty I have made some suggestions, but in the court, in full view of the public, I cannot keep reminding Your Majesty publicly what to do.
If things go on like this, the people of the world will definitely think that I am manipulating Your Majesty, which is not a good thing for either Your Majesty or for me."
Liu Bian said anxiously: "Then what should I do?
I really don't understand government affairs, and I don't like to deal with government affairs, but there must be one person in the court who makes the decision."
Liu Cheng was silent for a while, looked at Liu Bian and said: "Your Majesty, actually the Queen Mother and I have always had a plan, and it has already been implemented.
Now that the Queen Mother is gone, I think it is necessary to let Your Majesty know.
Your Majesty may not be aware of this.
Ninety percent of the officials in the court are members of the gentry clan, and they all hold important positions.
The power of most states and counties is also controlled by the gentry, and more than 70% of the land in the world is in the hands of the gentry.
Now this group of people is no longer content with the status quo.
Except for a few of the ministers in the imperial court, they are still loyal.
He has already turned away from the imperial court and His Majesty.
Your Majesty, do you think you can still trust such a person?"
"These people can no longer be believed, but the court cannot do without them, and your majesty's rule needs them to maintain.
Without them, the court will be paralyzed, so your majesty cannot touch them for the time being.
But Dong Zhuo does not have these Scruples, this person is cruel, cruel and ruthless.
This person was originally very harmful to the court, but we can use him to deal with it.
Pay those noble ministers and use his hands to eradicate them one by one, while we secretly cultivate power among the lower-level officials.
When Dong Zhuo eradicates all the ministers with ulterior motives in high positions, the lower-level officials we cultivated also grew up.
And begin to gradually replace their positions.
When the time comes, we will find a way to get rid of Dong Zhuo.
In this way, the Han Dynasty will be resurrected in the hands of Your Majesty."
Liu Bian said: "After listening to the emperor's words, I vaguely understand what I want to do."
"Delegate most of the power to Dong Zhuo and let him handle the government affairs.
Your Majesty only needs to retain the power of appointment and dismissal of the three ministers and nine ministers.
Even if your Majesty does not delegate the power, Dong Zhuo will definitely seize it, and he has already begun to control the Shangshutai and Chengmingtang.
It will definitely cause some ministers to unite with the courtiers to force Your Majesty to delegate decision-making power to Chengmingtang on the grounds that His Majesty is too young to govern."
Liu Biandao: "I just decreed that Dong Zhuo should take charge of the government."

Liu Cheng shook his head and said: "No, some people won't care too much about things that are too easy to obtain, and will think that His Majesty is too easy to bully.
Dong Zhuo will definitely use various excuses and means to force His Majesty to delegate power.
We must not move even an inch from the beginning.
After some stalemate and confrontation, he agreed to delegate power to him and let him take charge. , and at the same time, we must make him agree to some conditions, otherwise he will regard us as his biggest enemy.
We must make him not regard us as his main enemy, but regard the Manchu Gongqing as his main enemy, and the Manchu Gongqing will also regard us as his main enemy.
Treat him as the main enemy.
Only in this way can we achieve our goal."
Liu Bian said: "As long as I am stable, let the emperor be responsible for everything.
The emperor does not have to report everything to me, and I don't understand.
If the emperor needs my cooperation, just let me know
