Chapter 359

It's night, Luoyang, the palace.

"What should I do? Why did he die all of a sudden? Is it because the medicine we have used recently is too strong?"

"The dosage of the medicine has not changed. If you want to blame, you can only blame us for miscalculating his physical condition, which made him die so early."

"The key at this time is not his death, but what should we do if he dies?
We just want to confuse his sanity so that he can be controlled by us. How could we expect him to die so quickly!
Now that he is dead, how can we ensure our status? "

"Liu Bian is the son of Empress He, but he is He Jin's nephew, we must not let him ascend the throne!

He Jin has always been in conflict with us, if Liu Bian registers, then we will all be executed by He Jin! "

"Then it seems that we can only support Liu Xie to ascend the throne."

"But, Liu Bian is the eldest son..."

"There is nothing but, we may still have the final say now, but if Liu Bian ascends the throne, we will all die without a place to bury!"

"Zhang Changshi! Why didn't you say a word? You did say something!"

"Yes, Zhang Changshi, this is a critical moment of life and death, why are you still so calm?"

In an unknown palace in the imperial palace, ten figures gathered together, discussing in a flustered and anxious manner.

Hearing these words, a figure in the middle sighed and said:

"Oh, so what if you can't hold your breath? It will only increase your troubles.

But your thinking is too simple, the reason why we were able to live freely in the past was because of him;

But now that he is gone, even if we support Liu Bian as emperor, then He Jin can still mobilize an army to slaughter us under the pretext of not having an eldest son and forging an imperial decree.

Therefore, our main task before was not to think about who to be the emperor, but to think about how to save our lives first. "

Everyone else was taken aback for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that such a truth really was true.

One of them hurriedly asked:

"That Chang Attendant has a way to deal with it?"

"He Jin is the great general, commanding most of the army of the dynasty, and the only one in the dynasty who is capable of opposing He Jin is Feng Wuji.

Therefore, I have already sent someone to send a message to Feng Wuji, asking him to lead an army to protect us. "

"Feng Wuji? This is a wonderful move. He has been favored by us before, and it would be good to give him some benefits after dealing with He Jin.

However, Luoyang and Xuanmen Pass are lucky, with our people there, they can welcome Feng Wuji's army to come in;

But how could those local gates allow Feng Wuji to lead the army all the way through? "

"Don't worry, I have already considered this point. A few days ago, I sent the customs clearance document and the imperial decree to Feng Wuji."

"Zhang Changshi is still thoughtful, but Feng Wuji is not easy to get along with.

What if He Jin wants to climb on top of us after he has been successfully taken care of? "

"This is also a problem..."

"How about calling another group of people to Beijing? This will make them restrain each other, and no one can think of being the only one. We have the final say on what to do."

"Huh? Zhao Changshi's words are reasonable, but who do we want to find?"

"Dong Zhuo of Xiliang has received my favor, and his army is not weak, so why not choose him?"

"Dong Zhuo? Well, I think it's possible."

"I agree too."

"Okay! Then choose him."

While everyone was discussing, a hasty knock on the door suddenly sounded.

"come in."

The ten people sat away, drinking tea and eating fruit leisurely, but the words they heard afterwards made them sit up involuntarily.

"He entered the palace!"

"Which bastard let him in?! How many people did he bring?"

Zhao Zhong stared at the eunuch who came in with a cloudy expression and asked.

"Returning to Zhao Changshi, there is a letter from the empress, and the guards of the palace gate dare not stop it.

However, he only brought four or five followers. "

Zhang Rang and the others, who were terrified at first, breathed a sigh of relief. Why did they think that they would bring an army in to slaughter them.

"Okay, got it, you go down first."

"Yes!"

After Zhao Zhong waved away the eunuch, he looked at the others and asked:

"Everyone, what should we do at this time?"

"Naturally looking at the holy face, I have been with Na He for a while.

At present, Feng Wuji may have just received the news, and we haven't even sent anyone to Dong Zhuo's side;

It will take a long time for them to rush to Luoyang, so before that, we need to stabilize He Jin and Empress He first, and not allow them to support Liu Bian on the throne.

As for the beginning, it is natural that the burial of the Ling Emperor is the most important thing, and the matter of the new emperor can only be discussed after the matter is over. "

Zhang Rang said with a slight smile.

Everyone nodded in agreement, and then walked out of the gate one by one towards Ganquan Palace.

Ganquan Palace.

In the past, the palace, which was filled with endless sounds, is now full of mourning and desolation, and there are even more crying sounds.

But many of these cries are so fake that people can't bear to hear them...

The side room next to Ganquan Palace.

"The great general He Jin pays homage to the empress, the empress is in good health!"

Empress He was wearing a black back robe, with a white cloth wrapped around her head, her face looked haggard and pale.

"Brother, don't be too polite, just sit down."

"The minister takes orders."

He Jin saluted slightly, glanced to the side, then looked at Empress He and asked in a low voice:
"Sister, why did His Majesty go there suddenly? What is the reason?"

Empress He sighed with a gloomy expression, shook her head and said in a slightly hoarse voice:

"I don't know the specific details. According to several imperial physicians, His Majesty collapsed due to long-term excessive indulgence and heart infarction."

He Jin nodded thoughtfully.

To be honest, he was really a little panicked before entering the palace.

Because he and Lingdi have always had conflicts, large and small, but Empress He kept mediating between them, so nothing happened.

But before, I suddenly received news from the trusted maid beside Empress He, saying that Emperor Ling had passed away, and the Empress called him into the palace urgently.

At that time, he was really worried about the authenticity of the news, worried that Emperor Ling had sent this maid to lure him into the palace, so that he would end up.

After struggling for a while, he dared to step into the palace.

Fortunately, what he was worried about did not happen, and he had just seen it with his own eyes, that the Ling Emperor really passed away.

Empress He glanced around, then lowered her voice and said worriedly:
"Brother, although Zhui'er is the eldest son, he should inherit the throne;

But His Majesty left too suddenly, there is no will left behind, and those regular attendants have always been at odds with Eldest Brother, I am worried that they will mess around, when the time comes..."

He Jin couldn't help frowning and said:

"Sister's worry is not unreasonable, about this..."

"Reporting to the empress, the ten servants are asking to see you."

At this moment, a maid's voice suddenly sounded from the outside, interrupting He Jin's words.

Empress He and He Jin couldn't help being taken aback. After two breaths of silence, after obtaining He Jin's nod in agreement, Empress He said:

"Please come in."

"Yes~"

Soon, the door of the room was opened, and the ten permanent attendants walked in one by one with a sad face, and knelt down and saluted to Empress He mournfully.

"We will see the empress."

Seeing Zhang Rang and others' disgusting hypocrisy, He Jin almost wanted to kick them out.

What to wear?What is there to pretend?

How good is it to be indifferent like yourself?Such clumsy acting skills will only make people feel extremely uncomfortable!

"Okay, everyone, please get up quickly."

Although Empress He was furious in her heart, she couldn't show it, and raised her hand indifferently to signal everyone to get up.

Under the influence and emphasis of Emperor Ling, Empress He had to call these dead eunuchs "Grandfather" which made her feel very uncomfortable...

"Thank you Empress Empress, woo woo..."

Zhang Rang and the others stood up with snot and tears, and the appearance looked really funny.

"I don't know why the grandparents came here?"

"Wuuu, empress, Your Majesty usually devotes himself to government affairs, but unexpectedly, he became sick from overwork. With such years...

Your Majesty has passed away, we need a good life and resettlement. "

Zhang Rang raised his sleeves and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said sadly.

Empress He couldn't help wondering for a while, why did these bastards change their temper today?
"Grandpa Zhang is right. His Majesty has passed away, so the funeral affairs must be handled solemnly."

Zhao Zhong hurriedly nodded and agreed:
"What the Empress said is that all current affairs must make way for His Majesty's death.

We must let His Majesty go away in a good manner, and wait until His Majesty dies safely before we can say anything else. "

Empress He and He Jin, who were disapproving, suddenly changed their expressions.

They finally knew why these eunuchs did this. It turned out that the main event was here.

However, the new emperor will ascend the throne sooner or later, what are they doing this for?
Is it to delay time?What's the use of procrastinating?

Empress He and He Jin couldn't figure it out for a while, so they didn't know how to respond, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little dull.

After a long time, Empress He sighed softly and said:

"Regarding this matter, let the ministers discuss it after the news of His Majesty's death is announced to the ministers tomorrow morning."

Since she couldn't figure it out, Empress He could only retreat and attack conservatively.

"This……"

Zhao Zhong wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zhang Rang.

"Empress, although His Majesty is gone, you still have to take care of your phoenix body.

We still need to arrange manpower to take care of His Majesty's affairs, so we won't bother the Empress. "

Zhang Rang got up and said goodbye to Empress He, and the rest of them could only follow suit, although they were full of doubts.

After Zhang Rang and others left, Empress He looked at He Jin and asked:

"Brother, according to your opinion, what kind of calculation are they planning?"

He Jin rubbed his eyebrows, but shook his head and said:

"I couldn't figure it out for a moment.

It doesn't matter, let's talk about it tomorrow morning, I believe those ministers understand what to do.

After all, a country cannot live without an owner. "

Empress He nodded slowly and said:

"That's all there is to it."
