The Power of the Three Kingdoms at the End of the Han Dynasty and the Imperial Power of the Han Dyna

Chapter 246: Give poisonous wine and hit the road!

Night, Yong'an Palace.

After the Empress Dowager was forcibly taken out by Dong Zhuo, Liu Bian had trouble sleeping at night.

Although the Empress Dowager did not like herself, she had never treated herself harshly or harmed herself, and even protected herself during life and death. On the other hand, her mother's usually fierce energy disappeared overnight after the death of the general, and all thoughts were lost.

"Ugh!"

Liu Bian let out a long sigh and glanced at his troubled newlywed wife: "It's just a pain for you."

Tang Ji shook her head and said nothing, just resting her head on Liu Bian's shoulder.

Suddenly, the door of the room opened wide, and Li Ru led the crowd in: "The spring is harmonious, and Dong Xiangguo is serving longevity wine."

Longevity wine?

The three of them all knew clearly that this was not longevity wine, it was clearly death wine.

Suddenly, the Queen Mother's only family member left was her son, and she said, "You can drink Yun Shou wine first."

Li Ru said angrily: "You don't want to drink?"

Toast, do not eat and drink fine!
Li Ru waved his hand and brought two more things, a white silk silk and a dagger, "If you don't drink longevity wine, you can receive these two things!"

Tang Ji hurriedly knelt down and said, "I am drinking wine on behalf of the emperor. I wish you to save the lives of mother and son."

Wang Yue's expression behind Li Ru changed slightly, "I never thought that King Hongnong would be so lucky to have such a princess."

"Cough cough."

Li Ru picked up the wine bottle and handed it to King Hongnong, "I want to show your highness a dignity. Your highness, please don't make any mistakes!"

Liu Bian knew that there was no chance of survival today, so he had a banquet with his wife Tang Ji and his entourage and said goodbye.During the drinking process, Liu Bian sang sadly: "The way of heaven is so easy for me, how difficult it is for me! I abandoned my ten thousand chariots and retreated to Tibet. The rebel ministers see the pressure and my life will not be extended. I will pass away and you will be in the dark and mysterious place!"

Tang Ji danced, and Tang Ji raised her sleeves and sang: "The emperor and the sky are about to collapse, and then the earth will fall. As the emperor, my fate will not follow. Life and death are different paths. From now on, I will end up, but it is so fast. I feel sad in my heart!"

Liu Bian said to Tang Ji: "The king is your concubine, and she is no longer the wife of officials and people. Love yourself, and I will say goodbye from now on!"

After saying that, she drank the poisoned wine without hesitation. Tang Ji was so sad that she also drank it, "I, I am willing to die with Your Highness!"

Li Ru looked at Wang Yue behind him. Wang Yue led people to take Queen Mother He away first.

Li Ru: "Queen Mother, it's time to hit the road. Your two brothers are still waiting for you on the road."

The Empress Dowager He was about to curse loudly when Wang Yue continued: "Your Highness said that the He family was able to survive today only because of their own greed. If their virtue is not worthy of their place, there will be disaster."

Queen Mother He: "You!"

After hearing this, Queen Mother He knew that the person in front of her was not Dong Zhuo's person, but Liu Han's person!

Queen Mother He: "No matter what you say, he is still the late emperor's son and his nephew! How can he be so cruel?!"

Wang Yue: "How did you know that King Hongnong was dead?"

Queen Mother He: "He is not"

"You!!!" No matter how stupid she is, Queen Mother He still knows that Liu Bian is not dead.

Wang Yue said no more: "Queen Mother, it's time to get on your way."

Queen Mother He suppressed all the emotions in her heart, took several deep breaths and said, "Thank him for me. He is right. Everything was caused by the greed in my heart. I really deserve to die."

"Before you die, Your Highness asked me to tell you something. The former Queen Song is still alive."

After hearing this, Queen Mother He was startled, and then she burst into laughter. The laughter was very scary, and then she quickly drank the poisonous wine, and the fragrance disappeared.

This is Wang Yue's plan. Lies are easy to see through, but if three points are true and seven points are false, it is not necessarily true. The death of King Hongnong is a lie, and the death of Queen Mother He is true.

There was another fire in the palace, just like 12 years ago, the corpses were destroyed and no traces were left.

By burning down Yong'an Palace, Dong Zhuo could be said to have violated his agreement with King Hejian, but the murder of the young emperor and the queen mother was a bigger threat. After weighing the pros and cons, Dong Zhuo still chose to make up for the damage to the palace.

Wang Yue's price to Li Ru was very simple: he would not take any money from the property of the nobles and powerful people. Since he was going to move west to Chang'an, he might as well keep all the land deeds, books and so on.Although Dong Zhuo was reluctant to part with it, he couldn't take away the land, so the books would be used as compensation. He pinched his nose and agreed to the matter.

On the outskirts of Luoyang, Liu Bian and Tang Ji slowly woke up from the carriage.

"Your Highness, is this in the underworld?"

Tang Ji asked uncertainly.

Liu Bian was also confused and didn't know how to answer. No one knew what it would be like to die.

It was Wang Yue who said: "Of course not, this is the outskirts of Luoyang."

After hearing this, Liu Bian happily opened the curtain and looked at the mountains and rivers, the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, "How did we escape from the prison in Luoyang? Who are you? Where are you taking us? And, where is the queen mother?"

A series of questions made Tang Ji become nervous and grab Liu Bian's sleeve, "Since the strong man can save us from Luoyang, he will not harm us. I hope the strong man will let us live."

Wang Yue replied patiently: "Your Highness, the last general is Wang Yue, the general under the command of King Hejian. He has been ordered to rescue Your Highness from Luoyang."

"Uncle Emperor.?"

Liu Bian recalled that indifferent figure. In today's world, only this emperor's uncle had such great energy and made Dong Zhuo so fearful.

"As for the princess, when the general saw that the princess was willing to die with His Highness, they must have a deep love for each other, so the general took the initiative and rescued them both."

"What about the Queen Mother? How is the Queen Mother?"

"His Royal Highness has an order, whoever messes with the Han people, He! He deserves to die."

Wang Yue did not say anything else. This was not what a minister should say.

"Mother."

Liu Bian choked up and looked at Tang Ji beside him. Do you hate her?He couldn't hate it. If it weren't for the emperor's uncle, he would have died last night, and Tang Ji would have died too.

Don’t hate?Can't do it!

"Uncle Huang has such great ability, why why?!"

Liu Bian couldn't understand why the emperor's uncle, with his great ability, didn't kill the rebellious ministers and traitors for him and revitalize the Han Dynasty, but kept his troops in the north.

Wang Yue: "Your Highness, many ministers don't understand, but the Lord has his own considerations."

Liu Bian: "Wang Yue, where are we going?"

Wang Yue: "I have been ordered to lead His Highness back to Jinyang."

Liu Bian shook his head, "I don't want to go, Wang Yue. I have experienced too much this year. I don't want to participate in the world's disputes anymore. If you want to fight, let them fight."

Liu Bian was really afraid, afraid of being imprisoned again, becoming a pawn in the power struggle again, and experiencing life and death again.

Wang Yue: "This"

Liu Bian: "Can you contact Uncle Huang? Find a quiet little place where Wang, my wife and I can spend the rest of our lives peacefully."

Tang Ji cried and looked at Liu Bian: "Your Highness."

Liu Bian: "I just wronged you. I may not have the luxury of life in the future."

Tang Ji: "No problem, no problem! Wherever Your Highness is, I will be there."

Liu Bian: "From now on, I am no longer a king, but a common man, your husband."

Wang Yue was also confused. Although this man was not favored by his lord, he was an uncle and nephew after all. He had broken bones and connected tendons.

Liu Han also didn't expect that Liu Bian would become world-weary after experiencing all this. Fortunately, Buddhism had not been popularized in the Han Dynasty, otherwise he would have had to escape into Buddhism.

Liu Bian was saved purely because he was the emperor's brother's child, and he had no intention of making a fuss about him.

"That's right, find a good place and give him enough money. This is his choice."
