Chapter 11 The Curse of the Party
In the North and South Palaces, the emperor listened to Hou Lan's report, but his face was cloudy and uncertain.

"Oh, why does my nephew have such ability, dare to assassinate the prime minister of a country? Absurd!"

"Earlier, when he said that the five lords were in chaos, he didn't remember how the five lords got rid of the thieves and returned the government to me. In the past, the power of the thieves was overwhelmed by the government and the people. Among these pillars of the country, is there anyone who dares to make strong orders? Today, How come there are so many? Hou Lan, isn't I more powerful than the thieves?"

Hou Lan bowed his head and remained silent. He also knew in his heart that the thieves were talking about the general Liang Yi. The common people celebrate, but today's officials don't pay attention to the emperor at all, ignore the emperor's order, act recklessly, and even use confrontation with the emperor as a way to gain fame!
Some celebrities refuse to accept orders, refuse to recruit, and take pride in it. Some officials make a big fuss and kill the powerful and powerful at will. This is not a big deal. It's just that after the emperor declared that his pride was innocent, they actually wanted to kill them, and they were even praised by the people of the world. Doesn't this mean that the emperor has no eyes and knows nothing about good and evil?
"Country, what Yuan Kui and the others are suing is not about the Shaojun Hou's governor. No matter what he says, Yuan Kui is not guilty of insulting Hou's mother and killing her. It's just that he is accused of disrespect. The nephew of the national family is only the Marquis of Ting. Although he is expensive, he is white. According to the Han law, the rich and powerful are not allowed to be involved in politics, and they are not allowed to deceive officials."

"Political bullying?? My nephew is only eight or nine years old!!" Liu Zhi was furious. Judging from the appearance alone, Liu Zhi and Liu Hong were somewhat similar, with a slightly fat body and a white face with less beard. Thinking of him, I still lost some momentum.

"The country is angry!" Hou Lan bowed down and said in a low voice: "The country knows the age of Jiedu Tinghou, the servants also know it, and the people of the Hejian country know it too, but the outside world will not say that it is nine years old. Marquis Xie Duting disrespected the governor, and he said, the emperor’s grandson Marquis Xieduting is arrogant and domineering, disrespecting the governor!", In the contemporary age where the news is stuffy and the power of public opinion is controlled by the aristocratic family, what the aristocratic family says is what it is.

The common people are illiterate, the books and teaching materials are completely in the hands of the aristocratic family, and the students of the imperial court are all descendants of the aristocratic family!

Born from a poor family, he also worshiped under the name of a great Confucian of aristocratic family, so that he can become famous.

He Xiu, the son of He Bao, He Bao used to be the young master of the nine ministers, Ma Rong, who was born in Fufeng Ma's family, is the grandson of General Fubo Ma Yuanzhi, as for the others, there are eight handsome men, eight models in the world, there is only one person Born poor?
Dou Wu, Liu Shu, Chen Fan, Li Ying, Xun Yu, Du Mi, Wang Chang, Liu You, Wei Lang, Zhao Dian, Zhu Yu, Guo Linzong, Zong Ci, Ba Su, Xia Fu, Fan Pang, Yin Xun, Cai Yan, Yang Bu, Zhang Jian, Cen Yan, Liu Biao, Chen Xiang, Kong Yu, Yuan Kang, Tan Fu, Zhai Chao, Du Shang, Zhang Miao, Wang Kao, Liu Ru, Hu Muban, Qin Zhou, Fan Xiang , Wang Zhang, these people are all talented people nowadays, and the world respects them a lot, but is there anyone from a poor family?
The family of Xun, the family of Yuan, the family of Sima, the family of Yang, the family of Chen, many famous scholars and officials all come from these aristocratic families, and I have never seen a famous Confucianist from a poor family!
Tai students are preparing officials. The Tai students in the Western Han Dynasty are more like the passionate college students of later generations. Gossip, and regard this as their own glory. After 100 years, they have become a model for the world.

And while they were talking about the past and the present, the northern territory had already been lost, and millions of people wept with blood!
Although the Tai students at this moment have not yet reached the ultimate level as they will be a hundred years later, their life is nothing more than taking loose clothes during the day and drinking at night. Carrying the law of the Han Dynasty: "Drinking together is prohibited."

Liu Zhi's evaluation in history books is not high, and it is often said that he is close to a villain and far away from a virtuous minister. However, it is this emperor who succeeded to the throne at a young age and got rid of the domineering general Liang Ji. Waiter, it's hard to say that the family is suffering, but this time, the family really offended the emperor a little bit. The emperor is 34 years old but has no heirs.

It is often mentioned by Tai students that there is no virtue and heaven punishes them. Don't you see that there is no sacrifice?
I just heard that the emperor was so angry that he almost wanted to wash the Taiyuan Academy with blood, but all the officials stopped him and wrote a letter in tears, saying, the ancestors have ordered that the college students are not guilty of the words, and it is true that the whole Han Dynasty will not There are only two kinds of people who are blamed for their remarks. One is the illiterate peasants. The big man values ​​the peasants very much and is quite tolerant. The tax has always been relatively low. The second is the Tai students.

The emperor was also unlucky. He couldn't find trouble with the Tai students, so he could only find trouble with the officials. Among the officials, there was a faction of eunuchs and a faction of aristocratic families. , requesting the execution of the eunuchs headed by Wuhou, the emperor didn't want to pay attention to it, but the result was that a vigorous imperial student blocked the palace gate. These imperial students could not beat or hurt them!
When the emperor saw it, he was powerless. Coincidentally, Zuo Guan, Xu Huang, Ju Yuan, and Tang Heng gradually became more talented. If they didn't respect the emperor's order, the emperor directly executed the four princes. The honeymoon period with those aristocratic families had just ended, and the arrows of the aristocratic families pointed to Hou Lan. Perhaps in their view, the emperor only needed to decentralize the powers of the officials and govern by doing nothing to achieve the great harmony of the world.

This time, the emperor refused to agree with anything, and the family of hundreds of officials began to trouble Hou Lan. The small yellow gates all over the place, the tyrants who were close to the eunuchs, were wiped out at every turn, and the emperor ordered him to be released, but it was useless. They arrested two people at once and rang the bell for the aristocratic family. Who knew that these party members now wanted to use the incident of a child to put pressure on the emperor again.

Age doesn't matter, the party members only need to use the name of disrespecting the governor and causing chaos in the country to persuade the Tai students, not to mention that the Tai students are headed by General Tai Fu, and the emperor is gnashing his teeth.

Hou Lan had an idea in his mind. He looked around and said in a low voice: "Country, why don't you find Marquis Ting and let the people of Luoyang see what kind of Marquis Ting is and how old he is, so as to expose the hypocrisy of that scholar. Then, in the name of discussing the emperor's family, accept Li Ying, the party has no leader at that time, and can no longer cause trouble!" Liu Zhi said nothing, looked down at the bamboo slip in his hand, and the veins on his forehead were raised.

"I am the Son of Heaven, and the gangsters bullied me so much that even my young nephew was plotting against me. All these officials! What's the use of it?? What's the use of it!!!"

"Hou Lan!!"

Liu Zhi shouted loudly, he felt that he couldn't bear it any longer, and gave in again and again, did these guys really think that the Emperor of Han was made of mud?Alright, then let me show you what it means to be angry when the emperor is angry!

"Country!" Hou Lan knelt down in fright.

"I passed on the edict, Li Ying and other officials raised scholars from the Imperial Academy, made friends with disciples from various counties, and even drove each other. They were all partisans, slandered the imperial court, doubted the customs, and had no courtesy for ministers. The style of the doctor ordered Erbei Temple Prison to immediately arrest the party members and form a private party. This is a serious case, and a thief must not escape!" Liu Zhi shouted angrily, and immediately, Hou Lan was stunned .

As an eunuch, he did not deal with these scholar-bureaucrats, and he often called them party members in private, with the intention of forming a party for personal gain, but this was the first time that he publicly called them party members. It's too hot, and you can't let a thief go. What does that mean? There are countless officials involved, famous people in the world, and even Tai students, it is estimated that they will all be guilty of the crime!
Thinking about it, Hou Lan trembled with excitement, the era of eunuchs has finally come!

The first party chaos broke out!
