Daming Super Dimension Company, President Zhu Yuanzhang!

Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Shimin laughed.

"Qu Bing, please stop being dark. It will be scary when it gets dark." Zhu Di couldn't help laughing.

Huo Qubing smiled and said indifferently, "That's not very good. It will be convenient for sneak attacks in the dark, frighten the enemy to death, and win another battle."

"You kid, you think about fighting every day." Li Shimin shook his head helplessly.

Queen Changsun and Queen Ma looked at each other and smiled, "Let's go prepare the meal."

"I'm also going to help in the kitchen. The two aunts won't dislike me, right?" Huo Qubing didn't want to be caught drinking tea, so he hurriedly spoke out.

Queen Ma shook her head, "Why do I dislike you? Come if you want."

The living room was bustling with activity, and Fusu was a little uncomfortable with it.

Zhu Di stepped forward and said, "Let's go and have tea with us in the courtyard."

When Xiao Ran woke up, the food was already on the table.

Xiao Ran simply washed up and left the room, and saw Li Lizhi helping to serve the food.

"I'll do it, I'll do it, don't burn your hands."

Xiao Ran stepped forward, took the plate from Li Lizhi's hand, placed it on the table, and then took the initiative to push her to sit down.

"Princess, you sit down and I'll take it."

In the kitchen, Huo Qubing was stirring the vegetables thrillingly with a spatula in hand.

Xiao Ran pushed him away in a funny way, "You are fighting here. You go to serve the food and I will fry it."

After stir-frying a few times, Xiao Ran quickly plated it.

When the last dish was served, the stone tables in the courtyard were filled with everyone, and there were no extra empty seats at all.

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, "We still remember that there were only my sister, me, and Xiao Ran here before. In a blink of an eye, the courtyard was full of people."

"This is still a situation where someone didn't come. Maybe we will have to book a hotel when we have dinner together in the future." Xiao Ran thought for a moment that a group of people wearing dragon robes went to a hotel to eat, which was somewhat bizarre.

Li Shimin said: "Then why not go to Datang? I will host a family banquet for you."

"Go to Daming." Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up and he spoke immediately.

"How about going to Da Qin?" Huo Qubing said deliberately.

Fusu was about to speak when Xiao Ran responded first.

"Okay, take Taizu Han with you."

The dinner table fell silent for an instant. Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Shimin glared at Xiao Ran at the same time. This child was planning to cause trouble.

"We think you are crazy."

"Okay, okay, let's eat first." Queen Ma helplessly broke the atmosphere.

If Taizu of the Han Dynasty goes to the Qin Dynasty, he must not be hacked to death by Qin Shihuang.

Fusu was silent. He was one of the rebels who overthrew the Qin court.

The First Emperor would really take action.

No one at the dinner table took this episode to heart and ate happily.

The excitement lasted until late at night, and Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Shimin, who were drunk, stayed at Xiao Ran's house.

After finishing the tossing, Xiao Ran lay down and fell asleep.

Afterwards, Fusu and Huo Qubing and Zhu Di wandered around the ancient city for two days and returned to Daqin with many gifts.

"Without Fusu, I still feel a little bored. I'm going to find an order to pick up." After sending Fusu away, Huo Qubing muttered to himself, took out the spirit stone and went back to the room to pick out the order.

Xiao Ran was playing on the computer in the room, and suddenly the spirit stone flashed.

There was actually a new order, but it was an order application from Liu Bang, the great emperor of the Han Dynasty.

Before he could take a closer look, there was a knock on the door.

It happened to be Liu Bang who came outside the door. He said solemnly: "I'm here to ask you about the list."

This was not the first time Liu Bang had received an order, but he was full of doubts after reading the contents of the order.

"I'll take a look at the list."

With that said, Xiao Ran opened the spirit stone, and the contents on the list appeared in front of him.

[Customer: Liu Zhao]

[Time: Yongyuan fourteenth year, AD 102]

[Customer demand: My heirs are few and far between. To keep my heirs safe, I raise them among the people. But the truth about this matter cannot be found out. I feel uneasy. I ask God to show me a clear way. 】

[Remuneration: one hundred taels of gold]

【Orders! 】

"It turns out it's him. It's normal to ask for this." After Xiao Ran saw the customer clearly, he understood instantly.

"Liu Zhao, Emperor Hanhe of the Eastern Han Dynasty."

Liu Zhao was a good emperor.

Liu Zhao created a situation where Li Yuan was Ningkang and all countries were harmonious, which brought the national power of the Eastern Han Dynasty to its peak, known as the Yongyuan Emperor in history.

At the same time, during this period, Ban Zhao continued to write the "Book of Han", Cai Lun improved ordnance, and innovated papermaking technology, so that "Caihou Paper" was popularized.

"When did the distinction between the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Western Han Dynasty begin?"

Liu Bang was busy with government affairs and teaching his son, but he had not yet taken time to understand the history of his descendants.

Xiao Ran knew this.

"After Wang Mang came the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Liu Zhao was the fourth emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, known as Hanhe Emperor."

Liu Bang said: "You continue."

He wanted to understand clearly and then consider how to solve the problem later.

The content of the list seems simple, but the emperor's heirs have always involved the former dynasty and the harem, and even the entire world.

Xiao Ran continued to speak, "Liu Zhao, his biological mother Liang Guiren, after Liang Guiren was slandered by Queen Dou and died, she was raised by Dou's knees, and was later named the crown prince." "In the second year of Zhanghe, the late Emperor Zhang of Han passed away, and the crown prince Liu Zhao ascended the throne as Emperor He of the Han Dynasty and respected his aunt Queen Dou as the Empress Dowager. At that time, Liu Zhao was young and the court was controlled by the Empress Dowager Dou. After gaining power, the Empress Dowager Dou put her brother Dou Xian in charge of court secrets and responsible for issuing imperial orders and other matters. Brother also arranged important positions, holding the entire palace and the center of the court in his hands. "

"Empress Dowager Dou placed the political power in her own hands. She was arbitrary and arbitrary, and made decisions in the court. Even during the discussion of conquering the Huns in the north, court officials tried their best to remonstrate with her, accusing her of giving up the lives of thousands of people. Unfortunately, she did not Stop the Queen Mother from sending troops to protect Dou Xian."

Liu Bang was familiar with the Xiongnu, and he was puzzled, "Why did the ministers of the DPRK go to Cambodia to stop the Xiongnu attack?"

The Xiongnu have a bad reputation in every dynasty and every generation. Even if they attack rashly, the ministers should not be able to stop them.

Xiao Ran also felt outrageous when talking about this matter, "This matter has something to do with Queen Mother Dou."

"After the death of Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty, Liu Chang, the Marquis of Duxiang, came to express his condolences and was often summoned by Empress Dowager Dou. History books record that the two were most likely to have an affair."

"But this triggered Dou Xian's suspicion. He was worried that Liu Chang would take away the power of the palace and province from his hands, so he directly arranged for assassins to assassinate him in public. He also framed the matter to Liu Chang's brother Liu Gang and deliberately sent people to interrogate Liu Gang. . Unfortunately, the truth of this matter was revealed, and Queen Mother Dou was furious and wanted to kill him. "

"Dou Xian thought of atonement for his sins and took the initiative to ask for orders to attack the Northern Huns."

The reason is ridiculous.

But Liu Bang asked again, "Why is it the Northern Huns? Just because of this matter, the ministers of the DPRK should not stop it like this."

"Of course, this reason alone is not enough for them to object."

Xiao Ran said with some sympathy.

"Since the Western Han Dynasty, there have been constant natural disasters in the world. Basically, the national treasury has been spent on disaster relief. One of the reasons is that there is no money left to attack the Xiongnu."

"The second is that there were envoys from the DPRK outside at that time. If war broke out, they would not be able to come back."

"As for the division of the northern and southern Xiongnu, it started in the 24th year of Emperor Guangwu's founding in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The Xiongnu split into two groups due to civil war. The Xiongnu who went south surrendered to the Eastern Han Dynasty and were called the Southern Xiongnu. The remaining Xiongnu who stayed in Mobei were called the Southern Xiongnu. As the Northern Huns, they always looked covetously at the Eastern Han Dynasty."

This war shouldn't have started, but it happened for such a ridiculous reason.

The treasury is empty, the world is in disaster, and if something goes wrong in the war, it is not a small problem.

It may even lead to the accelerated demise of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Liu Bang frowned, "Is this war won?"

"We won. Dou Xian's attack was too sudden, and there was a request from the Southern Huns to send troops together."

"Dou Xian and the southern Xiongnu army forced the northern Xiongnu to disperse and the Chanyu fled. In this battle, more than 13,000 soldiers below the king were killed, and more than one million livestock were captured. Eighty-one Xiongnu troops came to surrender. About two hundred thousand people.”

"It can be said that this battle has completely eliminated the threat from the Northern Huns."

Xiao Ran lamented that if you plant willows intentionally, you should not be able to live, but if you plant willows unintentionally, they will create shade.

Even if Dou Xian went to attack the Northern Huns to atone for ridiculous reasons, on the surface, Dou Xian could be rewarded generously for this battle.

However, after the fight, Dou Xian did something too outrageous.

"It's a pity that Dou Xian won the battle and sent his men to chase the escaped Beidan Yu. After persuading him to surrender, Beidan Yu arranged for his younger brother to come to pay tribute to the Han Dynasty. However, Dou Xian believed that Beidan Yu was not sincere and demanded that Beidan Yu's younger brother be released. Send them back and attack the Northern Huns again."

"After a fight, the younger brother of the Northern Chanyu was sent back, and the Southern Xiongnu's Chanyu was also sent back to his hometown, but he did not go on another expedition."

"The original victory became a joke, a useless achievement."

"Absolutely ridiculous!"

Liu Bang cursed angrily.

He lowered his face and said, "Is war a child's play? If you take down the Huns and don't kill them, you still have to put them back. Are the Dou family idiots?"

It's like going on a trip for a long time, but the soldiers who died in the war and the money and food lost can't be recovered.

Xiao Ran said: "The ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government also opposed this matter, but unfortunately it has not been successful."

"Empress Dowager Dou was too arbitrary. She assigned all her family members to official positions and allowed them to become arrogant."

"Among them, Empress Dowager Dou's younger brother Dou Jing was accused of indulging his slaves in misbehavior, raping and seizing women, etc. When merchants met him, they were just like hiding from bandits. For such things, the upright ministers in the DPRK and others kept writing letters to remonstrate, and even fought with death. In a short time, In the past five years, ministers have written numerous times on various issues.”

Liu Bang's eyes flashed with worry, "Has Liu Zhao ever regained power?"

"Took it back." Xiao Ran replied.

"In the third year of Yongyuan, Liu Zhao adopted the new ritual established by Cao Bao, the Canadian Yuan Service. During this period, after Dou Xian defeated the Northern Huns, local officials rushed to collect taxes from the people and bribe Dou Xian. After receiving an impeachment letter from officials, Liu Zhao dismissed more than 40 local officials who bribed Dou Xian as mentioned in the memorial, and Dou's relatives held a grudge. "

"As Liu Zhao grew older, some officials, Shangshu, opposed his relatives' interference in politics. Empress Dowager Dou refused to listen, and Dou Xian used his power to force Shangshu to commit suicide by taking poison. When such a thing happened, the courtiers were frightened, and in order to survive, they all catered to Dou Xian, and Zhengzheng The officials wrote a letter to impeach Dou Xian for his arrogance and said in the memorial that Wang Mang had usurped the Han Dynasty, but Dou Xian was also forced to commit suicide. "

"In October of the same year, Liu Zhao issued an edict to seek out the close relatives of the heroes of Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty and wanted them to inherit their fiefdoms, suggesting that the ministers in the court would imitate the heroes of Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty. He also ordered Dou Xian to accompany him. Unexpectedly, the courtiers secretly discussed and worshiped him and shouted Long live."

boom!
Liu Bang slapped him, "The Dou family is so brave! Do they want to rebel?"

"That's really possible. Queen Mother Dou has been in power for many years and may not have this idea." Xiao Ran said.

"Is Queen Mother Dou still alive at this time?" Liu Bang asked calmly.

Xiao Ran shook his head, "Dead, died in the ninth year of Yongyuan."

"It's an advantage for him. You can continue." Liu Bang snorted coldly, but he was not as angry as before.

Xiao Ran spoke slowly, "Not long after Liu Zhao offered sacrifices to the tomb of the Han Dynasty, news came that Ban Chao had conquered many countries in the Western Regions. Liu Zhao awarded him a reward, and he returned to the capital Luoyang from Chang'an."

"In the fourth year of Yongyuan, Empress Dowager Dou made Deng Die the Marquis of Rang, and Deng Die colluded with many people. One of them was a good friend of Empress Dowager Dou, and another served in the Changle Palace where Empress Dowager Dou lived. His son Guo Ju often accepted Empress Dowager Dou was favored and they planned to kill Liu Zhao. When Liu Zhao learned of the plot, he planned an uprising with his brother Liu Qing."

"The advisers around Liu Zhao persuaded him to kill Empress Dowager Dou and others directly, but Liu Zhao refused. Liu Zhao was worried about the military power in Dou Xian's hands."

"Until the fourth year of Yongyuan, Yuan An died. Yuan An had been fighting against Empress Dowager Dou and others in the court for many years. Liu Zhao and the court officials relied heavily on him. When he died, Liu Zhao lost his right-hand man. Fortunately, the one who took over the position was Liu Zhao’s confidant Ding Hong.”

"Later, when Dou Xian returned to Luoyang, the capital, Ding Hong took advantage of the solar eclipse to remind Liu Zhao to launch a coup. More than ten days later, Liu Zhao found a reason to move Liu Qing to the Beigong and ordered Ding to Hong served as the Taiwei, the leader of the three princes, and at the same time ordered Zhi Jinwu and the five captains of the Northern Army to lead the troops and prepare for war. "

"The battle for power officially began. After preparing everything, Liu Zhao did not touch Empress Dowager Dou. Instead, he ordered the arrest of those who had colluded with Empress Dowager Dou, and put them all in jail and executed. Liu Zhao sent people to take back Dou. Xian's general sealed the letter and ribbon, changed him to the title of Champion Marquis, and went to their respective feudal states with the other children of the Dou family. After confirming that the Dou family arrived in the feudal state, they immediately ordered them to commit suicide. "

"With Empress Dowager Dou imprisoned in the palace, the struggle for power is over. After Liu Zhao took power, he immediately cleaned up the remnants of the Dou family. All officials who relied on the Dou family's connections were dismissed."

Liu Bang nodded with satisfaction, "Liu Zhao is quite capable."

It is indeed good to be able to regain power after a few years after ascending the throne at the age of nine.

Empress Dowager Dou has great power. If you are not careful, you will fail to seize power. You don't have to think about the outcome. You will die directly at the hands of Empress Dowager Dou.

"Emperor Liu Zhao of the Han Dynasty was very intelligent, and he was a good emperor who loved his country and his people. He did not rule for too long, but he did his best."

"After wiping out the influence of his cousin Dou, Liu Zhao personally took charge of political affairs, went to court every day to listen to politics, and reviewed memorials late at night. He never slackened off, and was known in history as a man of hard work and modesty. At that time, the world was offering auspiciousness, but Liu Zhao thought that his virtue was shallow. I felt in my heart that the auspiciousness was meaningless, so I kept it aside and did not publicize it.”

Xiao Ran was very appreciative in his words, but also felt regretful in his heart.

Emperor Liu Zhao of the Han Dynasty died in his twenties. (End of chapter)
