Chapter 271: Breaking the Iron Law and Claiming the Throne (3)

'Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the world has fallen apart, the princes have fought for hegemony, the soldiers have been in trouble, the lives have been ruined, the countryside has been destroyed, ten rooms and nine are empty, the society is in danger of exhaustion, and the common people have the pain of hanging upside down!

Fortunately, the Duke of Wei - the Prime Minister, raised volunteers in Yanzhou, begged for thieves in Luoyang, welcomed His Majesty to save the Liu Temple, moved the capital to determine the capital of the Han Dynasty, and then the world Buwu, the princes, the south and the north to fight, the barbarians bowed down, and their achievements were brilliant, comparable to King Wen of Zhou!

His Majesty the Emperor, the wise adult, the forgiveness of things, the abolition of useless old examples, the precedent of the prosperous world, the promise of the land of the country, the book of a thousand times, the Prime Minister received this great favor, will be dedicated to repay Your Majesty, so the world is very fortunate, all the people are very fortunate! ’

Generally, the courtiers are more than 1,000 words, in order to show that they are knowledgeable and talented, worried about the country and the people, especially after the invention of white paper, it is easier to write, and the folding is more cumbersome.

So much so that Cao Cao ordered many times to let the officials do more practical things and talk less about it, and often tens of thousands of words of twists and turns, and the good people were tired and half dead after reading it, let alone a dying old man who was nearly sixty years old?

Xiao Yi's recital was very short, only a few hundred words, and he simply stated the facts, Princess Haiyan read it seven or eight times in a row, closed her eyes and pondered for a while, and finally let out a long breath.

Since the auspicious rui appeared repeatedly and the ministers played, Princess Haiyan was very worried, Cao Cao made such a big noise, did he only plot a prince, or did he have greater ambitions?

If it is just a prince, it is still a courtier of the Han Dynasty, the royal family will be fine for the time being, if there is greater ambition, it is difficult to say, and the answer to this question is probably only known by two people, one is Cao Cao and the other is Xiao Yi!

And in Xiao Yi's recital, the answer is just given, stating Cao Cao's various exploits, and comparing it with King Wen of Zhou, and King Wen has two out of three parts of the world, and he still serves Yin Shang with courtesy, which shows that Cao Cao has no intention of usurping the Han for the time being, and he does not want to bear the infamy of usurping the Han!

Thinking about it this way, Cao Cao has become a protector, as long as he lives for one day, the Han family can exist for one day, and when the traitor travels westward, the Han family's morale will also turn down, relying on thieves to maintain national fortune, is it really ironic?

In addition, the fiasco of several coups has made Princess Haiyan understand one thing, whether it is fighting wits and courage, fighting hearts and strength, she is not Cao Cao and Xiao Yi's opponents, and it is even more impossible to restore the authority of the Han family!

Cao Cao has been in power for more than ten years, constantly excluding dissidents and supporting his descendants, and now the important ministers of the court, the feudal officials, and the generals of the army are all his confidants, they only know that there is Cao Cheng, but they don't know that there is a Han emperor!

Not to mention that the royal family is no longer able to resist, even if there is the strength to launch another coup d'Γ©tat, and it is very lucky to succeed, killing the traitor and destroying his three clans, I am afraid it will be difficult to recover the overall situation, because even if Cao Cao dies now, the Cao Ying group created by him will not perish!

Instead, they will elect a new leader, and then go on a frenzied revenge, and then the soldiers will be all over the place, and the jade will be burned, and the fate of the royal family can be imagined.

If it was three years ago, with Princess Haiyan's strong character, she might have fought with the Cao family, but now she will definitely not, because she has a baby son, so she naturally doesn't dare to say the word life and death lightly!

Since he can't afford to die now, he can only accept the invitation of the ministers, canonize Cao Cao as the king with a different surname, and then ensure the safety of the royal family, and then wait and see the changes in the overall situation of the world.

"Cao Mengde has been a Han for more than 30 years, and has always boasted of being loyal and good, and his ancestors also ate Han Lu in the world, and he did not dare to usurp in his lifetime, so that he had time to toss and turn, and he could watch the changes in the world.

As for this edict of the king, it will be written by the palace, and the princess will be crowned with the woman's manual, and the people of the world will laugh at the royal family, or the person who will be entitled, if it leaves a reputation for eternity in the future, it will also be borne by the palace! ”

"Imperial sister - my imperial sister, the little brother is so guilty - woo!"

………………

Princess Haiyan took the pen and ink and decided to write an edict on behalf of the king, so that the historian recorded this period of history, and could also leave a little self-esteem for her younger brother and a little face for the Han!

If God bless and the Han Dynasty is prosperous again, it will be easier to erase this history of humiliation, at most it will be a 'woman interfering in politics and bullying the king'!

'In the winter of the 11th year of Jian'an, on November 16, His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty issued an edict:

Since I ascended the throne by the edict of the first emperor, the world is turbulent, thieves are everywhere, and even the subversion of the universe, the lives are ruined, fortunately, Prime Minister Cao Cheng is in the court, pacifying the Quartet, but Qing Huaxia, and protecting the temple of the Han Dynasty is unharmed, this merit is not under Yi Yin!

If you have the merit of Yi Yin, you should have the reward of Yi Yin, and I will add the prince of the king of Wei, the prime minister, to allow him to be crowned twelve, ride the golden root car, drive six horses, use the car of the Son of Heaven to serve Luanyi, go out to the police, and build the palace of the king of Wei in Yecheng......

Princess Haiyan was favored at a young age, she grew up sitting in the arms of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, she was very familiar with political documents, and quickly wrote a decree of the king, which was not only appropriately worded and gorgeously written, but also had a deep meaning!

It turned out that the monarchs of the Han Dynasty praised their courtiers, often compared with the ancients, what is the virtue of Zhou Gong, Xianpei Kong Meng, not Jiang Shang, Zhang Liang...... But there are countless sages who don't need it, but Yi Yin is mentioned three times in the holy decree!

Yi Yin, originally a slave, but since childhood, intelligent, diligent and motivated, later assisted Shang Tang to destroy Xia, became the first hero of the founding of the country, and he also did a big thing: set a precedent for courtiers to depose the monarch!

Taijia is the eldest grandson of Shang Tang, after inheriting the throne, blindly hedonistic, tyrannical people, so that the government is in chaos, so Yi Yin abolished his throne and sent him to live in Tonggong near the cemetery of Shang Tang, known as 'Yi Yin banished Taijia!' ’

Taijia was in Tonggong for three years, after repenting and blaming himself and changing his mind, Yi Yin welcomed him back to the capital, re-established himself as the king, and finally became a generation of Ming Jun, this matter has also become a beautiful talk through the ages, and Yi Yin is respected as a model for courtiers!

But a few years ago, when the 'digging army' was searching for gold and treasure, they found an ancient tomb of a Western Zhou noble, in which a large number of bamboo slips were unearthed, which recorded the matter of Yi Yin putting Taijia, but the content was diametrically opposite!

These ancient books say that after the death of King Zhongren (the fourth king of Shang, Taijia's uncle), Yi Yin was in power and used his identity as a patriarch of the Four Dynasties to depose the orthodox heir Taijia, and exiled him to Tonggong and guard the tomb of King Shang Tang, and Yi Yin himself became the king!

During the period of guarding the tomb, Taijia kept in touch with the courtiers loyal to Yin Shang, and finally seven years later, Taijia secretly sneaked back to the capital, killed Yi Yin and reinstated the throne, and did not remember the old evil, and divided Yi Yin's property to his two sons......

After the excavation of these ancient books, it caused a huge sensation in the historiography circles, and there was a fierce debate about whether Yi Yin was a virtuous minister who exhorted the monarch or a traitor who plotted to usurp the throne, and with the passage of time, more ancient books were unearthed, and the latter point of view prevailed!

In this decree of sealing the king, Cao Cao was compared to Yi Yin several times, one is to satirize his humble background, and he is an ugly eunuch; The second is to warn him to restrain his ambitions and not to be a minister who plots to usurp the throne, otherwise it will not end well!

Of course, no matter how cleverly the holy decree is written, it is just a psychological comfort, Cao Cao will not give up the throne that is about to be handed because of a few words of sarcasm, and in the process of sealing the king, there is still a danger!

According to the rules, after the decree of the king is issued, a grand ceremony will be held to sacrifice the gods of heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, and the gods of the four directions, and establish the temple of the Wei Kingdom, and Cao Cao will also canonize the queen, the prince, and the civil and military officials of the Wei State, and accept their worship!

What Princess Haiyan is worried about is that once at the canonization ceremony, there are courtiers who are greedy for greater wealth and wealth, and turn the king Chitose who should have been shouted into Long Live My Emperor, what should I do, so that Cao Cao will be put in the air, and it will not be possible to usurp the Han, and this matter has to be prevented?

Therefore, there must be a person with high prestige, intelligence and eloquence to control the ceremony of sealing the king, and ensure that Cao Cao is successfully sent to the throne, not on the throne, and among the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, only Xiao Yi is the most suitable!

The problem is that this guy is lazy by nature and cherishes feathers, and he doesn't like to get involved in this kind of thing the most, even if he sends someone to lobby or plead himself, he may not be able to get him to help!

It's just that people have weaknesses, and this guy is no exception, what he cares about most is relatives and friends...... Thinking of this, Lord Haiyan spread out another volume of holy decrees, and after grinding cinnabar, he didn't write a word, and it was useless to write!

Instead, he hugged his son, dipped his little palms and feet with cinnabar, and pressed the mark on the yellow silk ......, which was not like a holy decree, but like kidnapping a hostage and extorting ransom from his relatives.

"Enemies, enemies - whether the Han family can continue depends on whether you are attentive or not, and don't let this palace down, otherwise...... Spank your son's tiny ass! ”

After the two copies of the holy decree are written, they are stamped with jade seals and transcribed copies (the ancient holy decrees are in duplicate, the original is promulgated in the world, and the copies are stored in the inner palace, if there is no copy of the transcription, the original is regarded as a false edict), and then sent to the messenger who sent them, and sent them to the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Marquis of Wushou's Mansion respectively......

In this way, the unique 'wordless holy decree' in history appeared, and it was also the only holy decree that was not backed up, and countless historians in later generations boiled off their hair and could not understand the deep meaning...... Become one of the historical mysteries of the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty!

There is also a chapter (dizzy these days, the chapters are all in the wrong order, and they can't be modified...... οΌ‰
