Chapter 43 Abdication edict

Chang'an, Mei Wu.

Li Ru ran to Wanle Palace in a fiery way, ignoring the snow on the roadside and fell several times in a row. The appearance of wind and fire does not have the demeanor of being a court order at all.

"Father, I'm overjoyed! Father Shang, great news."

At the beginning of this year, Dong Zhuo asked Emperor Xian of Han for the name of Shang's father according to Li Ru's plan. Shang's father means the father of the emperor. Now Dong Zhuo is unhappy as a minister, and he is going to start the father of the day. Dong Zhuo dominated the wild in the dynasty. How dare Emperor Xian dare to resist? He could only obediently give Dong Zhuo the title of 'father' and change himself to Dong Zhuo's son.

At this time, Dong Zhuo is flirting with the concubine of Emperor Ling! Behind him, there were also two women in light veils, and their convex delicate bodies were looming, which was more attractive than taking off their clothes.

Li Ru's fiery intrusion made him somewhat unhappy, but after all, Li Ru is his son-in-law and his own think tank. Even if he is unhappy, Dong Zhuo still gives him some face.

"Li Ru! What's the matter?" A little coldness can be heard from Dong Zhuo's tone.

But this is also understandable. If anyone is unhappy and plays with beautiful women, what's wrong with you, an old man?

"Father, your strong enemy Sun Jian was ambushed by Liu Biao in Sanjindu. Now he has been defeated and killed. Li Ru arched his hand and said to Dong Zhuo.

As soon as he heard Sun Jian, Dong Zhuo immediately got up and pushed away the beauty in his arms.

"What are you talking about? Say it again."

Li Ru smiled and said, "Congratulations to Shang's father, Sun Jian is dead."

Unlike modern society in the Han Dynasty, the spread of information was very slow. Especially now that the world is in chaos, princes from all over the world are divided. In order to avoid the checkpoints and searches of various princes, messengers often need to take a long detour. In addition, Sun Ce and Liu Biao deliberately blocked the news, and Dong Zhuo, who was opposed to various princes, only got the news nearly a year after Sun Jian's death.

"Sun Jian is dead?" Dong Zhuo couldn't believe it.

"It's really dead." Li Ru vowed to make a promise.

"Hahaha, ha ha ha, ha ha ha." Dong Zhuo laughed wildly, and his whole face was deformed. Sun Jian is dead. Hahaha." The laughter was enough to break through the sky and go straight to the nine palaces. After a long time, he gradually calmed down.

"Heaven has eyes, Sun Jian is dead, and this guy is a hero among these 18 princes. As long as he dies, the princes of the Central Plains are all pigs, dogs and ducks. I think which one dares to come out against our family. This time, our family can finally have a good night's sleep. Very good."

Looking at Dong Zhuo's excited appearance, Li Ru's small eyes turned, and an attention came to his heart. However, he was still a little hesitant. But after thinking about it, he still planned to say it.

"Father, I have a word that has been suppressed in my heart for a long time. If it's stuck in your throat, you won't be able to spit it out!"

Dong Zhuo looked at his twisted look and said with a laugh, "You are our son-in-law. What's wrong with the family? Tell me."

"Father, I can say that." Li Ru suddenly knelt on the ground and worshipped Dong Zhuo, "My son-in-law, please enter the position of the 9th Five-Year Plan, that is, the throne of the emperor."

Dong Zhuo narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment.

"Wait, wait. Do you mean to let our family become emperor? Now Dong Zhuo has controlled the government, and he wants wind and rain. He is already a de facto emperor, but he does not have the title of emperor. Throughout history, the name of this emperor has been the pinnacle of power. How many vassals and princes are staring at this position!

"Father, what's wrong with this? Since Shang's father entered Beijing, he first wiped out the palace rebellion party. Clarify the court, support the new king, and then eliminate Yuan Shao's 18th thief army. The monarchs and ministers all clap their hands and praise it, and the people all hope to be praised by heaven. As the saying goes, this great achievement will be ancient, heroic and immortal. If the prime minister is not the emperor, isn't there a desire to rule for a long time?

These words were impassioned, and Dong Zhuo brushed his beard, which moved him. Now Dong Zhuo is a great minister. If he wants to go further, he can only claim to be the emperor.

Li Ru saw that he still needed to add a fire.

"Hanting has lasted for four hundred years, and its energy has been exhausted. It should have been changed a long time ago, but now who else is looking at the world? Who else is more with the emperor than your father to be the emperor!"

Dong Zhuo came down from his seat and patted Li Ru kindly.

"Our family is extremely moved by the heart of Brother Li." However, Dong Zhuo looked sad and hesitated, "However, if all the princes knew that our family was emperor, would they hate our family? Will there be a rebellion? Will the Wenwu of the Manchu Dynasty recognize the new king of our family?

Li Ru smiled and waved his hand to sign Dong Zhuo not to worry.

"My father is too worried. Since ancient times, he has been the first to ascend the throne. Let those who do not respect and worship, Shang's father now has Yongliang in the north. According to Chang'an in the south, we have Mount Lao, Qinling in the west, Longxi in the south, and the Yellow River in the north. We occupy the land, plus the 200,000 Xiliang army in the hands of Shang's father. Even if these princes are not convinced, what can they do?"

"What you said made me feel much more at ease, but those senior ministers in the court? This has to be considered!" Dong Zhuo said hesitantly.

"Shang's father, the elder minister, and his son-in-law have been appeased. I guess the Empress Dowager He has given them an order, and there will naturally be a good show in a while. Li Ru said with a smile.

"Is that true?" Dong Zhuo came forward and hugged Li Ru, and said, "It's worthy of being my good son-in-law. As long as Li Ru does this, you are the big master of our new dynasty."

"Report, Shangfu." A small school ran in in a hurry.

"Shang's father, Wang Yun led an old minister to meet Shang's father."

Li Ru smiled, brushed his beard and said, "Father Shang, I'm coming."

"Hurry up, let them come in quickly." Dong Zhuo said excitedly.

......

"My father has an order, and the ministers will meet."

Dong Zhuo sat upright, and Wang Yun led the ministers to enter slowly. Among them, Wang Yun held a silk roll of a jade shaft. If it is correct, it should be the decree of the Empress Dowager He.

Yizhi is the display and symbol of the power of the ancient Chinese harem. The texture of its shaft handle varies according to the grade of officials and is strictly different: the first grade is the jade axis, the second grade is the black rhinoceros horn shaft, the third grade is the gold shaft, and the fourth and fifth grade are the black horn shaft. The materials of Yizhi are very exquisite. They are all silk brocade fabrics made of good silk. The patterns are mostly auspicious clouds and cranes, which are magnificent.

"My minister, Wang Yun, meet your majesty." Wang Yun took the lead and knelt down.

Then I saw the officials behind him kneeling down one after another, and everyone shouted in unison: "I will meet my emperor. Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

After Dong Zhuo looked at it, there was a smug smile on the corners of his mouth. Aren't these old ministers all elegant and look down on me, Dong Zhuo? I, Dong Zhuo, became the emperor. You are all my courtiers. At that time, you were all inferior to me. Your daughter-in-law for many years became a mother-in-law. Dong Zhuo was so happy!

"Wang Yun! Our family is a prime minister. Why do you match your majesty? Dong Zhuo asked knowingly.

Wang Yun held the decree in his hand, gathered at the top of his head, and said respectfully to Dong Zhuo, "I have received the decree of the empress dowager and drafted the imperial edict of the Han Dynasty. I hope that your majesty will take the world as the world as the idea, change the Yuan Dynasty, and enter the Ninth Five-Year Plan."

After Wang Yun finished speaking, a minister beside him took out the "Han Emperor's abdication edict" drafted by Wang Yun. After Li Ru took a look at Dong Zhuo and helped bring the abdication edict.

Dong Zhuo opened the edict and read it carefully. Reading it, he laughed happily.

"Okay, okay, okay. Wang Yun! You have figured out the name and year of this country for our family. That's good, that's good.

Wang Yun knelt on the ground and looked very respectful, but Dong Zhuo did not notice the cold killing in his eyes.

"Draw by God's will, all people return to their hearts, and I am willing to serve your majesty." After saying that, he bowed to Dong Zhuo.

Later, loyal ministers also worshipped one after another and shouted in unison, "I am willing to obey God's will and serve your majesty."

"Hahaha, ha ha." Dong Zhuo laughed again, and his dream came true.

"Good, Wang Yun, our family is here. Thank you very much. In the future, when I ascend the throne, all of you will be the founders, all of whom will be.

"The wolf's ambition is obvious." Wang Yun secretly despised in his heart. He didn't expect Dong Zhuo to be so anxious. According to the normal understanding, even if his subordinates persuade him to the throne, Dong Zhuo should give in three times. In this way, first of all, you conform to fate, rather than covet the position of emperor.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager He has a small request."

Dong Zhuo looked at this abdication edict and was overjoyed. Without raising his head, he asked Wang Yun, "What does the Empress Dowager ask for? Tell me."

Wang Yunyi said, "The Empress Dowager hopes that your majesty can treat their orphans and widows well, and I hope you don't let them suffer from hunger."

Dong Zhuo smiled without thinking about it: "Wang Yun, go back and tell the Empress Dowager to reassure her that she has done a good job. Our family will reward her with lifelong wealth.

"I would like to thank Your Majesty on behalf of the Empress Dowager."

Dong Zhuo was in a good mood when he saw everyone's respectful appearance.

"Okay, let's all be flat!"

The ministers slowly got up and retreated.

"It's all gone!" Dong Zhuo said. Dong Zhuo enjoyed this feeling, although these ministers were also trembling about themselves in the court, which was a fear of their own force. Dong Zhuo really doesn't have the status of ministers as high as they are today, shouting at them.

When everyone slowly dispersed, Dong Zhuo found a figure outside who had been kneeling for a long time. He exclaimed, "Feng Xian, why are you here?"

He was very surprised that Lv Bu could come over. Recently, the two of them had a lot of trouble because of marrying Diao Chan. Lv Bu repeatedly asked his adoptive father to reward Diao Chan, but Dong Zhuo refused, and the relationship between the two began to deteriorate gradually.

At this time, Lv Bu did not yearn for the same as before, and he wanted Diao Chan. He calmly said to Dong Zhuo, "Father, I'm here to plead guilty to you."
