Chapter 0267 Small Banquet

Late at night, Ye Qing got up in her clothes and walked out of the courtyard. The Purple Wisteria Star dimmed in the sky, which was either an illusion or not.

As soon as the news of the emperor's death spread, important officials rushed to the city in a hurry. Some went to He Mansion, some went to Zhang Mansion, and some stayed indoors. Some weak heroes followed into the city, waiting for the imperial palace's orders.

Who will ascend to the throne? Marquis Shi or Marquis Dong? "At this point, neither prince was granted the title of king, let alone crown prince.

Emperor... The late emperor had two sons, who favored the younger Marquis Dong. He wanted to be crowned as the crown prince several times, but Marquis Shi was the eldest son of Empress He and had a legitimate title. He also had the great general He Jinbao, who controlled the two armies of the north and south. His strength was terrifying

In order to divide the military power of He Jin, the late emperor recruited strong men in the Western Garden last year and placed them under the command of the Eighth Colonel of the Western Garden. The trusted eunuchs and Xiaohuangmen Jian Shuo were in charge of various armies and directly obeyed the emperor. Even He Jin was greatly restricted

If the late emperor could live for another three years, he could slowly strip He Jin of his military power and elevate Marquis Dong. Unfortunately, he doesn't have time left

Zhang Rang, the Ten Constant Attendants, is integrated with the Military Academy Captain Jian Shuo? But the Central Army Colonel Yuan Shao and the Imperial Army Colonel Cao Cao may be integrated with He Jin

Overall, when Shi Hou ascended to the throne, he not only had a legitimate reputation, but also had an advantage in terms of strength, "Ye Qing thought silently, with a clear mind.

All politics is about status and power, and status ultimately boils down to power. There is no luck in it, and there are not many people in the city who think like this.

The only opportunity is to summon the Ten Eunuchs and He Jin, and then carry out a coup and kill him. Only then can we help the Marquis of Dong ascend to the throne and bring an end to the situation. Because everyone knows about the late emperor's favor towards the Marquis of Dong, it is not difficult to forge a testament to the Ten Eunuchs at this time

Let's wait and see for now! "At this moment, Ye Qing no longer considered the conflict with the governor at the banquet. Although he maintained a friendly tone, everyone understood that this was almost an irreparable rupture.

A long street, this is the only way for the barracks to go to the palace, and entering the palace through He Fu is also a necessary path.

Not long after, a convoy of carriages rolled around the street corner, a magnificent carriage seen at dusk, with a middle-aged man standing tall and imposing in appearance.

The convoy was about to head towards the palace when a scholar suddenly jumped out in the middle of the night and stopped in front, saying, "General, hold on

From both sides of the convoy, the armor suddenly fell and trembled. They drew their long swords and raised their spears, intending to assassinate the person on the spot with just a signal from the superior or without any instructions for a moment.

Who is it? "He Jin had a sudden impulse in his heart, leaning forward and asking.

Please, General, beware of any changes in the palace! "The scholar raised his head and spoke earnestly.

He Jin was taken aback for a moment, furrowed his brow, waved his hand, and someone immediately understood and shouted at the scholar, "Nonsense, throw this guy with a staff of thirty

As soon as the command was passed, two armored soldiers rushed forward and without hesitation knocked them to the ground, then raised their staffs and struck them.

The staff fell down and spread far into the quiet street.

General, General, I am a loyal one... "The person could only cry out in grief and anger, watching the car driver pass by without stopping, his expression difficult to distinguish.

Idiot... "There were many figures in the nearby residence, and many gazes were cast. They had never appeared at the dinner party, so they must not have been on Wang Yun's list, so they took risks to obtain it. But is this kind of thing so easy to fight?

Don't think about participating in the follow-up anymore, "many people said with schadenfreude.

This scholar was tough and gritted his teeth until the end, until he was thrown out with a fork, firmly refusing to change his words, which changed the views of many people.

In a world of great fame, a nobody is just a nobody. He Jin may not pay attention to it, but there will be many more influential people who will try their best to remind him, and there may even be people within the Ten Eunuchs.

Both heaven and man are aware of some insider information - tonight when the emperor dies, it is rumored that Jian Shuo will be left behind to establish the Marquis of Dong according to his will. Regardless of the truth of this order, once it is successfully abolished, Jian Shuo will shake himself and become the head of the Ten Constant Attendants - this eunuch group is not a monolithic entity.

As expected, the sound of horse hooves could soon be heard in the palace. He Jin and his group rushed back without returning to He's mansion, but went straight to the army barracks.

Big brother? "Guan Yu and Zhang Fei followed, and Guan Yu asked with concern," Big brother, are you watching again? Is there any change

It's okay now, "Ye Qing let out a sigh and glanced at the palace. His imperial aura slightly stabilized, and as He Jin entered the military camp, a military aura immediately spread, protecting him.

He Jin went straight into the barracks without coming out. Under the internal and external troubles of Jian Shuo, he could only watch helplessly as Marquis Liu Bian ascended to the throne, that is, the Young Emperor.

This scholar insists that the effect will be compensated soon.

His approach is to express his stance so quickly that there will be some compensation in the future, and his reputation has gained some foundation. For Tian Ren, who is not a local hero, it is already a good harvest... Overall, it is not a loss, but it was done too roughly, and the sale to He Jin has no future, just a short-term operation

With this thought in mind, Ye Qing closed the tent and fell asleep. After sleeping for a while, she heard Jiang Chen's voice say, "Master, the Wang Mansion has sent someone again

I'm coming out now, please come into the hall and talk

Jiang Chen hurriedly responded and walked away. Ye Qing quickly got up, washed and put on his clothes, and entered the living room. However, when he saw someone sitting in the living room, it was still Wang Ling. His attitude towards Ye Qing became even more intimate, and he stood up and said, "I am following my uncle's orders to invite Duke Xuande over. Today, my uncle only invited Duke Xuande, not from another garden outside the city, but from his mansion in the east of the city

Ye Qing and Jian Yong exchanged a glance and knew in their hearts that this was Wang Yun's private banquet.

Wang Yunyi was a key figure until the time of the campaign against Dong, not to be missed, let alone... "He eagerly attended the meeting.

The sky is still clear, and the weather in Luoyang city is different from yesterday.

The emperor passed away, and the whole city was filled with dust.

Apart from the snow-white fluttering paper flowers of the spiritual veil, Ye Qing felt that the people only had concerns about their future situation, without much sorrow to speak of.

At this moment, I don't know if there is a posthumous title of Ding Ling

Good posthumous titles affirm and inherit the imperial spirit of the previous generation, while bad posthumous titles criticize the imperial spirit of the previous generation and learn from its lessons... This originated from the supervision of the leaders elected by the members of the pre Qin period... In the Zhou Dynasty, the "Haotian God" was established as the imperial legal system based on the rule of virtue over the people, and the herdsmen of Daitian were the "emperor"... In the Han Dynasty, Dong Zhongshu's theory of the correspondence between heaven and man was more widely believed and practiced by the people, and this "heaven" gradually gained real power in the world, making the emperor wary.

During the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Tang, the posthumous titles of the ancestors were posthumously conferred, and Li Shimin's original concise title of "Emperor Wen" was embellished with beautiful words, resulting in the creation of the title "Emperor Da Sheng Da Hong Xiao Emperor". The political significance of posthumous titles was stripped away, and no one paid attention to them anymore.

At this time, the Han people respected the heavens and placed great importance on this posthumous title, and no subsequent emperor or minister dared to falsify it.

'Filial piety' has always been a basic character in the posthumous titles of the Han Dynasty. Emperor Wu of Han was also known as Gongye, and his full name was Emperor Xiaowu. Only two people in the Han Dynasty were exempt from the character 'filial piety' - Liu Bang, the former Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Xiu, the later Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty.

The oracle bone script form of "Ling" refers to shamans who are praying for rain from gods. Those who are good at worshipping ghosts and monsters are called "Ling", while those who are chaotic but not damaged are called "Ling". This emphasis is not in line with the orthodox worship of Haotian in the Han Dynasty.

The meaning is that one is foolish and does not focus on their duties, and the country is in turmoil that cannot be stopped.

The so-called 'filial piety' is a blatant insult, in layman's terms, it means' good death '.

On the way to visit Wang Yun in the east of the city, Ye Qing actually saw some elderly people on the street leaning on crutches and cursing, but hinted, "You died well

Ye Qing smiled, and at this moment, Zhang Fei was there. He didn't say much, just pondered in secret.

The carriage stopped for a moment, and Wang Ling leaned in from the front screen and explained, "There is a yamen blocking the way ahead. Just wait a moment

Ye Qing nodded and closed her eyes to rest.

There was a sound of neat footsteps on the street, and street vendors avoided each other and knocked over a bit. The smell of fragrant powder permeated the air, with the sound of women screaming, the sound of elderly people angrily scolding, and the sound of children crying. The crowd became noisy, and Zhang Fei quickly lifted the car curtain to watch the excitement

But it turned out that it was the patrolling yamen who heard the rare sight of neatly armed soldiers. A leader pressed his sword sternly and said, "No slander

At this moment, an old man stood on a nine foot long cane with a dove shaped carving at the top, raised his eyebrows and glared angrily, "Bah, the Qiang people have not been eradicated, and there are four bandits. As a descendant of the Han family, you do not want to kill bandits to serve your country, but to show off your power here

At this moment, the yamen realized that the old man had white eyebrows and beard, and when he saw the dove shaped cane, he immediately looked at each other - it was a royal cane!

Elderly people should take good care of themselves, regardless of national affairs

The old man only scolded my grandson, how can we talk about national affairs? "The old man was also clever. With these words, the yamen officials left in frustration amidst the crowd's laughter and cheers.

The cowardly mice! "The old man snorted, and a group of rural elders followed suit, sighing at the chaos in the world

Wang Ling restarted the carriage, and this dramatic scene slid backwards through the car window until the delicate cane disappeared from view. Ye Qing withdrew her gaze, lost in thought.

In Liu Bei's memory, since the Zhou Dynasty, there has been a tradition of kinship politics where the royal scepter is only awarded to those who have made meritorious contributions or to elderly people over seventy years old - those who have not made any contributions but have worked hard. This takes care of social relationships and stabilizes the hearts of society, as everyone will have a time when they are old and powerless.

With this royal staff, you can share the national sacrifice. Although it does not distinguish between luck and fortune, it can share the same power - don't underestimate this

In my original memory, a grassroots official at the township level in Linjun detained an elderly person holding a cane on suspicion of violating the law. Although he did not physically assault the elderly person, he was sentenced to the death penalty and beheaded for public display. Under Han law, anyone who insulted or physically assaulted an elderly person holding a royal cane was punished with the same punishment as the crime of great treason.

During the Zhou, Qin, and Han dynasties, this kind of royal staff was specially given to the elderly in their seventies, and the treatment of sharing the power of national sacrifices remained unchanged. Even Ye Qing knew that it was not until the Ming Dynasty that the sacrificial treatment was abolished - because after the Yuan Dynasty, the worship of Haotian had somewhat declined.

At this time, sacrificial rites were highly valued, and the Han Dynasty governed the world with filial piety. This added a layer of political need, and Yu Wangzhang shared the national sacrificial rites. He also enjoyed the treatment of '600 stones' (equivalent to county magistrates and small county magistrates) politically, and was regularly given rice, wine, and meat economically. He also exempted his descendants from taxes and corv é es to focus on supporting the elderly

The most exquisite senior citizen discount certificate in history.

Unfortunately, relying solely on agricultural society, once the expansion of the empire is hindered by external enemies and the morale of the people gradually fades, it will eventually be silenced

No wonder the three Taoists would rather accept the successive rise of the five emperors, but also to promote the rise of the heaven, to control the world's ghost house in the middle, and have the power to transform nature.

Until now, the Great Tribulation has only shown the two major systems of Shuifu and Fengtu, which are already as powerful as mountains and seas. The Fengtu system can withstand attacks from both the lower soil and the external and internal forces. What kind of prosperity will other systems have

Ye Qing has always believed that technology lies in its widespread popularization, and Taoism lies in its integration and concentration. These are all experiences of real observation of the two civilizations, but now in terms of strength, they have developed into great power in the end.

All the way speechless, the palace appeared in front of us again.

Liu Bei from Xiazhuo County, invited by your master... "Ye Qing submitted the post, and soon a middle-aged butler came out to greet him, saying," Duke Xuande, please wait a moment. Your master will personally welcome him
