Two days later.
The court ceremony.
All civil and military officials gathered together. All officials who were qualified to attend the meeting were neatly dressed, wearing official uniforms according to their ranks, and wearing civil and military hats and hats.
The ministers in the court were lined up on both sides, all with serious faces and solemn expressions.
The vast majority of people were staring straight at their feet, not daring to look up or even chatting with their colleagues from the DPRK and China standing nearby.
A few courtiers looked up, but after seeing the soldiers forming a circle behind them, they silently retracted their heads.
The entire court hall was surrounded by heavily armed soldiers. Any official who dared to make any move would be immediately controlled by these soldiers.
Of course, among the ministers who lowered their heads and did not dare to look, there were also people whose eyes were filled with anger, their teeth clenched, and their hands clenched into fists.
It was only in his heart that he forcibly restrained his desire to shout angrily, so he didn't draw his sword in anger on the spot and curse.
But once the ceremony to depose the emperor officially begins later, it is unclear whether anyone will stand up resolutely.
Following behind his father.
Cao Ang, who was mixed in the crowd, also had his hands in his sleeves and silently looked at everything around him.
Especially the few people on the high platform.
Of course, Dong Zhuo didn't need to say more. This guy was very swollen now, and he was extremely complacent.
If it weren't for the fact that his current strength was not enough to truly fight against the whole world, he might have been unable to bear it and sat down on the chair at the back.
Even so, Dong Zhuo still wore a sword on his waist, with his left hand on the hilt of the sword, his head held high, and he patrolled the crowd below arrogantly.
No one could look at him.
Everyone lowered their heads silently. Even if someone raised their head to meet his gaze, they would quickly avoid it.
It can be seen that the fear and shock in the hearts of the ministers were evident.
A smile appeared on Dong Zhuo's fleshy face, and thoughts were running through his mind.
Standing behind Dong Zhuo was still Lu Bu, who had just taken refuge a few days ago.
He holds a painted halberd in his hand, wears a golden helmet and armor, and his waist is as straight as a pine and cypress. The whole person is like a sculpture.
But no one can doubt the horror of this sculpture.
If someone dares to cause trouble at the court meeting later, this sculpture may turn into a bloody massacre machine.
…
Compared to these two guys, Cao Ang paid the most attention. In fact, it was still Emperor Liu Bian who was sitting silently on the throne behind Dong Zhuo.
This guy is really miserable!
He was originally soft-tempered and timid, but after finally becoming emperor, he never had a moment of peace.
First, the eunuchs fought for power with their relatives and tore the little emperor around like a puppet. They always treated him as a puppet and never really regarded him as the emperor of the Han Dynasty.
Finally, the two mountains that were pressing down on their heads were gone, and Dong Zhuo, who was completely unreasonable, came again with the power of an army.
This time I lost my freedom even more.
No, not just losing freedom, but losing everything, today even the throne is about to be lost.
The treatment was far worse than when the eunuchs and relatives were there. At that time, he was still the only emperor recognized by the two forces.
Recalling the time when I met the Emperor on Beiman Mountain, the boy looked extremely timid, showing great dependence on himself and his father who fell from the sky.
I don’t know what I should be thinking about now that I am sitting alone on the throne.
Cao Ang felt a trace of compassion in his heart.
But now, sitting on the throne, looking at the familiar but unfamiliar ministers below, Liu Bian's eyes were full of confusion and fear.
He doesn't know what his future holds.
After losing the title of emperor, where should he go?
Just like other princes of the Han Dynasty royal family, they just find a place to drive him there, and no one cares about his life, old age, illness and death.
Or should he continue to be imprisoned in the deep palace, and his life would be the same as the previous half month, except that he would lose the title of emperor?
There are many possibilities.
Liu Bian had no time to think carefully, and he couldn't think clearly. Unknown fear filled his mind.
As a young emperor, his father actually did not teach him the way to govern the country, let alone the art of imperial control and the emperor's mind.
He knows nothing about any of this!
But the instinctive fear of life still made Liu Bian feel a little uncomfortable. Sitting here felt uncomfortable all over.
I always feel that once he loses the title of emperor, the fate waiting for him will be tragic and desolate.
But even so, he didn't dare to move.
The intimidation power Dong Zhuo gave him was so strong that when he saw Dong Zhuo on weekdays, he would not dare to speak loudly.
Not to mention a child like him, even the mature civil and military ministers in the court did not dare to speak loudly when they saw Dong Zhuo.
Perhaps the only person who was not afraid of this big black guy was General Xiao Cao who had picked him up on Beiman Mountain and brought him back to the palace safely.
Think of this.
Liu Bian couldn't help but search below with his eyes, and soon found Cao Ang standing behind Cao Cao.
It happened that Cao Ang was also staring at Liu Bian.
The two looked at each other instantly.
Seeing Cao Ang, he was wearing dark black clothes and a large robe with fluttering sleeves. Even though he was wrapped in official uniform, he still looked handsome and elegant.
Looking at General Xiao Cao with his sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, heroic appearance and high-spirited spirit, Liu Bian couldn't help but show envy in his eyes.
very nice!
Still so brave, fearless and brave.
Very different from the officials around him.
It would be great if he could be like him, then he would have the courage to stand up and fight. Anyway, the end would be tragic, so there would be no difference.
Unfortunately there is no if.
…
Seeing all the ministers arriving, the auspicious moment has arrived.
Dong Zhuo immediately pulled out the dagger from his waist with a swish sound.
Then the sword pointed at everyone.
He shouted loudly: "The emperor is weak and cannot be the king of all the people in the world. Now I have a plan. Please listen carefully!"
The words fell.
Li Ru, who was standing behind Dong Zhuo, held an edict in his hand and quickly came to the front of the high platform. After glancing around, he read it in a clear tone.
Dong Zhuo naturally asked Li Ru to write this edict together with several literati, and the content of the draft was naturally unsightly.
It’s not that the writing is bad.
But it was written very excessively.
Looking at the bodies of the emperor Liu Bian and the Queen Mother He, it seems that this mother and son are the most cruel and cruel people in the Han Dynasty, with no morals and no conduct.
Then he praised King Chen Liu a lot.
After Li Rusong finished reading the edict, he handed it to Dong Zhuo with both hands and stepped aside.
Dong Zhuo came to the stage with his sword and waved two soldiers to come forward.
"Go and invite King Hongnong to come down, take off his emperor's seal and ribbon, and please go to the north of His Highness and kneel down to proclaim yourself to the new emperor and obey his orders!"
Dong Zhuo's order.
Two armored soldiers who looked like tigers and wolves rushed forward with a whoosh, grabbed Liu Bian's arms from the left and right, and lifted him directly from the throne.
All of a sudden.
The emperor was frightened and the ministers were sad.
And there was a burst of crying and howling from outside the hall.
