I do not know where the news leaked out, but Mrs. Liang, Deng Guiren's mother, really knew from the doorman that Liang Ji was going to attack him this time. To my daughter out of business.

Ruo Ruo palace swayed with the morning breeze, a faint incense filled the air, and a group of maids were dressing up for Mrs. Deng who got up late.I saw Deng Guiren loosely pulled up a beauty bun, her long hair was slightly tied up on her back, her silkworm eyebrows were lightly drawn, her red lips were slightly crimson, her eyes looked like stars, she was wearing a pink gauze skirt that stretched the floor, sitting on the copper In front of the mirror, she is very graceful and charming; even Deng Guiren is quite self-satisfied when he sees his own appearance, and he deeply believes that other men will inevitably be fascinated by it.

Thinking of Emperor Huan's thoughtfulness last night, Deng Guiren was quite emotional, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help showing a smile that seemed ashamed and joyful, but the curve hadn't subsided yet, only to hear the little eunuch report that Mrs. Liang came to look for her.Deng Guiren tidied up slowly, with a sense of laziness all over his body, lightly took a pearl hairpin newly given by Emperor Huan, and inserted it carefully into Yun's hair.Before it was done properly, Mrs. Liang hurriedly threw herself on her daughter, crying, "My son, that thief Liang Ji said that he wanted your mother's life—"

Hearing this, Deng Guiren couldn't help flashing his hand, inserted the pearl hairpin crookedly, and even poked his fingertips, and sucked his fingertips in his mouth in pain, there was a faint smell of blood, and his eyes flashed cruelly, "Mother said But is it true?!"

Seeing her daughter's posture, Mrs. Liang felt a little guilty, she closed her skirt a little, and replied, "It's the doorman who visited our house before you entered the palace, called Li Heng. The news is absolutely true!"

"Is that the doorman who recognized the killer of Bing Zun? Is this person reliable?"

"It's that person. I think you have been in the palace for some years, and that person has always been loyal to the sect. Mother can trust me."

Deng Guiren took his mother's hand and said softly, "My daughter can trust her mother. Don't be alarmed, mother. This is different from the past. It's not that Liang Ji's thief wants to do whatever he wants. Now the sage is about to deal with him. He doesn't tuck his tail to be a good man, but he wants to send out these stupid moths in case others don't know, and they just happen to be sent to the Holy Majesty's subordinates!"

Mrs. Liang hesitated when she heard it, "Will the Holy Majesty really punish him for this matter? But mother's status is not too precious——"

"Mother, what the Holy Majesty needs is just a fuse—"

That night, Emperor Huan sent Shan Chao, Tang Heng, and Zhang Biao, the lieutenant of Sili, to surround Liang Ji's mansion with more than a thousand guards including Yu Lin and Huben. , Zhao Zhong and others guarded the gates of the palace, and quickly took down Lie Xiaoshiwei, who had been placed by the Liang family in the imperial guards. Xu Huang, Gu Yuan and other leaders detained the ministers of the Liang family in Luoyang City. Cheng and Shang Shulang and others guarded the palace province with soldiers; while Li Wei and others kept the order in Luoyang City to prevent changes.

In the side hall of Chongde Hall, Emperor Huan and Liu Shu were sitting opposite each other in front of the case, Zhang Rang was guarding on the side of Emperor Huan, and the candlesticks on both sides were burning nine large candles, which were very bright and illuminated the room brilliantly. There is a game of Reversi, Emperor Huan plays White, Liu Shu plays Black, and Bai goes first.Emperor Huan caught a white piece between his middle index fingers and knocked it down on the chessboard. His handsome fingers and the way he dropped the piece made Zhang Rang beside him feel very attractive.

Emperor Huan picked up another son and rubbed it between his fingers, and asked without any expression on his face, "I don't know what Master Liu thinks of this move?"

Liu Shu smiled slowly, "The Liang family is deeply rooted, and the Holy One is dormant. The dragon is in the abyss, bit by bit eating away at the sky, and now the root is uprooted, and the dragon is in the sky, but it is still a good game of chess."

Emperor Huan heard that Liu Shu was so flattering, he didn't see her flattery, but he just happened to scratch his own complacency, he was quite proud, but he thought about something, looked at the people around him, and said slightly bitterly, "What kind of flying dragon?" In the sky, it's nothing more than a sleepy dragon! It's difficult to walk, and it's hard to move—"

Hearing this, Liu Shu sighed, "That's all the art of the emperor. Why should the sage lament? In the past, Emperor Xiaowu couldn't do whatever he wanted. Even ordinary people, how can they get what they want and give up when they get tired of it—"

"Really?! Do ordinary people need to make themselves the biggest bait to attract the desires of the world?" Emperor Huan said with a contemptuous snort, "Men and women in the world, young and old, don't pretend to be naked or moths to the flames. ——" Emperor Huan was about to continue talking, but Zhang Rang pulled his sleeve, and suddenly felt that he had lost his composure, so he covered it up without mentioning it.Naturally, as a smart courtier, Liu Shu should act as if she hadn't heard what the king didn't want you to hear.

But he said that Zhang Biao led his troops to surround Liang's mansion, and wanted to lead his troops to rush in, but was stopped by Shan Chao and Tang Heng. The officer brought a soldier in to test it first, and it would be better for the adults to sit here—" Naturally, Shan Chao still wanted to win the first place in his heart, but he didn't say anything.

Either Zhang Biao was straightforward by nature, or he didn't want to argue about these things at this juncture, so he followed Shan Chao's opinion.But Shan Chao and Tang Heng rushed in, only to see a willow leaf hidden weapon attacking Shan Chao's face, Shan Chao knew some martial arts, but he was already a little impatient, and he was even more impatient because he had a grudge against Liang Ji. So he couldn't dodge in time, and was shot in the shoulder.Tang Heng suddenly found the man in black hiding on the eaves, got up and chased after him, the man in black fired several shots in succession, Tang Heng had been on guard for a long time, and had already dodged them, the man in black had no choice but to fight hand-to-hand with him.

Shan Chao also took advantage of the situation to chase after him, and joined forces with Tang Heng to pinch the man in black from the back and back. The shadows of swords, swords and swords changed, and the cold and evil aura surged within three feet, with a faint bloody aura.The three of them wrestled for a while, but they couldn't get any good. Seeing that the man in black was in danger, he nodded lightly, jumped onto the eaves, and flew away.

Shan Chao was injured and fought for a long time, but was easily escaped by the man in black.The rest of the servants and attendants don't have much force value, so they no longer hold back stubbornly and obediently capture them without a fight.Tang Heng led his men to continue searching inside, and when they entered Liang Ji's bedroom, he saw that Liang Ji and his wife had committed suicide by taking poison.Tang Heng thought it must be because he was afraid of the crime, and didn't feel anything unusual, so he ordered people to search for his property and some important things, and then returned to the palace with Shan Chao, while Zhang Biao stayed behind and surrounded himself with the soldiers.However, no one cared about whether someone or something was missed in the multiplayer of mourning and burning in the Liang Mansion. After all, it is normal to miss some non-critical small shrimps and small fishes.

Soon, after the Liang family was basically uprooted, Deng Guiren was canonized as empress, his father was posthumously named General Cheqi and Marquis of Anyang, his mother was conferred the title of Lord Kunyang, his nephew Deng Kang was named Marquis of Puyang, and Deng Kang's younger brother Deng Tong He was granted the title of Marquis of Kunyang, Deng Tong's cousin Deng Hui was granted the title of Marquis of Anyang, and he was named Huben Zhonglang General, and Deng Tong's younger brother Deng Bing was named Marquis of Fuyang. The deceased elder brother can be regarded as a family of six lords in total, and the Deng's clan ranks among the schools and generals, and there are too many to count.

As for the Liang family, there were also seven marquises, two generals (Liang Ji and his father), and seven women who were named emperors.Someone once compared that the empress dowagers of the Han Dynasty played the role of Trojan horses, introducing a group of ambitious relatives to fight for power, but they themselves only provided bait and became tools of their family; playing Trojan horses in the palace requires charm , talent and luck.Although the replacement of the Liang family by the Deng family seems to be just a replacement of the Trojan horse, it is actually different.

Both Deng Mengnv's father and elder brother have passed away long ago, leaving only the generation of nephews, so it is difficult to gather the family's ambition to put pressure on Emperor Huan through Deng Mengnv. Secondly, there may be multiple players in the whole game, but Emperor Huan is at least The biggest bait for the big family in the manor is always in the hands of the emperor. He chooses and lures, and the suitable Deng family has to go through fire and water, and the successful ones will be enshrined as marquises or ruined.

Empress Liang once ridiculed how stupid Deng Mengnv was, thinking that Emperor Huan was so sincere to her, but if she or any woman were placed at the junction of the cooperation between the king and the family power, even if the king loved it or not, it must be judged. Do your best, the front is an unparalleled temptation, and there is no retreat behind.It's just that, if the king shows his favor to you a little bit, it can send more signals to everyone, and it can also make you more determined. After all, it is very possible for a woman's jealousy to provoke crazy behaviors regardless of the overall situation.

After Deng Mengnv was conferred this time, her family was enfeoffed as a marquis, but in fact there was no authoritative spokesperson for the family. Therefore, the Deng clan and Liang Ji's power and domineering are still incomparable, and Emperor Huan himself was on guard.At the same time, apart from Liang Ji, the other party that benefited the most was the group of eunuchs. On the same day, Emperor Huan made Shan Chao, Xu Huang, Ju Yuan, Zuo Qun, and Tang Heng five people as marquises, and Zhao Zhong, Hou Yu, Zhang Rang, Liu Pu, etc. Eight people were also enshrined as township lords. Therefore, compared with the Deng family, it was a group of eunuchs who had no talent, learning, nobility, and moral character that caused greater public backlash and public opinion. It was so big that it aroused the astonishment and hatred of all classes.

Perhaps from another perspective, this is actually the result of a serious deviation between the king's employment standards and the folk's expectations. The end of the world supports the precarious and broken rivers and mountains, and the world will only laugh lightly at a foolish king.

Therefore, the third force that has been ignored this time is a series of virtuous ministers and capable officials represented by Zhao Dian, Yin Xun, Li Wei, Liu Shu, Feng Dai, etc., and later Chen Fan and Xun Yi. .Because of his meritorious service in addition to Liang Ji, Yin Xun was granted the title of Marquis of the Capital by Emperor Huan, just like Zhang Rang. Other rewards were small, or relocated after time passed. Compared with the former two, especially the eunuchs, Yin Xun is really far behind.

In this turbulent situation, there is naturally another small episode, that is, Emperor Huan abolished the Mausoleum of Empress Yi of Liang as the tomb of nobles. This move naturally received different information for different people. For example, what ordinary people see is only Emperor Huan. For the hatred of the Liang clan, what the Deng family saw was honor and warning, what the eunuch saw was a husband and wife a hundred days of kindness, after all, it was still the grave of a nobleman, the Holy Majesty still thought of love, and those who promised themselves to be virtuous ministers, Either they really treat it as the king's family affairs and don't comment, or they just slander or gossip in their hearts.

Naturally, for many ordinary people, the biggest thing is to add a lot of chatter after dinner, as well as the desire for ample food and clothing.
