(forty five)
"You are still young. In this palace, the queen mother may not be able to take care of you because she is not very busy."
"Don't make angry remarks about being a female official. You and I both know that female officials are also very despicable in the eyes of noble people."
"If you stay in this palace for many years, you will inevitably encounter a domineering master."
"Leave the palace, but don't go too far. The world is not peaceful."
"There is always someone at the emperor's feet to take care of you. If you encounter something that really cannot be solved, you can go to the Deng family and send a message."
"You have been with me for more than ten years, and I want you to have a good ending."
When she first came, she was only a four-year-old child, and Qiu Shuang was also a girl who had just passed her prime.
Now, more than ten years have passed, and she is still a young man. Qiu Shuang has also passed her prime years and has become what others call an old girl.
When she succeeded to the throne, she thought about letting Qiu Shuang out of the palace.
But Qiu Shuang refused because she had no worries outside the palace.
Now, she is probably really going to die.
With the skills Qiu Shuang has honed over the years, she can live a good life regardless of whether she is married or not.
"Go and take away the things in the box and leave the palace immediately."
"As soon as the formalities are completed, I have completed them."
"Let's go."
Sunge suddenly felt that being able to predict his own death was a great thing.
She can arrange everything in a slow and orderly manner.
It's better than dying so unexpectedly in Sister Zhao's world.
Tai Shi Ling has lived the life of an expert hermit.
Liu Hu will soon succeed him and become the emperor of the Han Dynasty.
Qiu Shuang can also be a rich man with no worries about food and clothing in Luoyang City.
Only Deng Sui is left.
She actually didn't have much worries or worries about Deng Sui.
Deng Sui is strong enough and stable enough.
She was distressed.
When Deng Sui arrived, Sunge was still sitting under the tree, leaning against the dead trunk.
Sunge pointed out the seedling to Deng Sui.
"Queen Mother, this will also grow into a towering tree."
"Mother, natural disasters continue and the world is difficult. It is already very hard for my children and ministers to know that they are my mother."
"But I still hope that my mother can leave a spark of education for the women of the world after the natural disasters and border wars cease for many years."
Deng Sui was a woman, so she could most empathize with him. Women all over the world are not the same.
"Mother, please move forward boldly."
"My father and I will always be proud of it."
"If Liu Hu turns against him, the queen mother does not need to take into account the friendship between him and his sons."
This is Deng Sui.
Since the beginning of the dynasty, there have been floods and droughts for ten years.
The barbarians invaded from outside and bandits arose from within.
Whenever I heard that the people were hungry or could not sleep in the morning, I would reduce my bows to relieve disasters. Therefore, the world would be restored to peace and the year would be prosperous.
"Mother, please keep everything simple during the funeral, there is no need to make a fuss."
Having said this, Sunge paused.
"But during the holidays, the Queen Mother still needs to send people to prepare more sacrifices."
"This is what the Queen Mother promised."
This short sentence brought Deng Sui's thoughts back to eight or nine years ago.
At that time, the late emperor was still there.
"good."
Deng Sui sat beside Sunge, quietly.
The light and shadow make the figures of mother and son peaceful and warm.
Deng Sui's shoulders are slender, narrow and thin, but they are like a hill. Layer by layer, he carries the country and subjects of the Han Dynasty on his shoulders, and he will unswervingly carry them through natural disasters.
In the summer, at the end of April, Liu Sheng passed away.
Liu Hu fasted in the palace, and Deng Sui ascended the Chongde Hall, accompanied by all the civil and military officials wearing auspicious robes.
Immediately, Deng Sui wrote an edict naming Liu Hu as emperor. The Taiwei presented the emperor's imperial seal, and Liu Hu officially ascended the throne and became the new emperor of the Han Dynasty. Empress Dowager Deng remained as regent.
Everything seems to be back to the way it should be in history.
However, everything seems to have changed again.
Deng Sui ordered that as the country suffered from natural disasters one after another and the people suffered from hard labor, funerals should be simplified and the burial objects and specifications in the mausoleums should be reduced.
Only then did the old princess of Qinghe, Geng, know that Liu Hu stayed in the palace in the name of recovering from illness in order to welcome the overwhelming wealth.
All of this was clearly something Liu Qing had planned and planned to achieve in his lifetime, but now it landed lightly on Liu Hu's head.
It's incredible.
Liu Hu, who inherited the throne of emperor, was not in a complacent mood.
After several years of letting go and practicing in silence, he clearly knew how much he weighed.
Your Majesty and Tai Shiling once said that only superficial things can float easily.
In the first month of the following year, Deng Sui changed the year name to "Early Yuan Dynasty".
Farming was encouraged, water canals were built, the Qiang people were decimated, and the refugees returned.
Among them, considering those who are widowed, lonely, lonely, poor, and unable to make a living by themselves, one person is given three husks of grain, and social security is implemented to meet basic survival.
Several years passed by in the blink of an eye, and Deng Sui was nearly forty years old.
Compared with the Eastern Han Dynasty royal family, it is already considered a relatively long life.
This year, Deng Sui went his own way and founded a new school.
She knew that if women were to be educated in schools like men, it would cause unimaginable resistance.
Therefore, we can only proceed step by step and figure it out slowly.
Then, follow the example and follow the example, hoping to open up a way forward for women all over the world.
Perhaps she was destined not to succeed.
But as long as it affects one person, it is a change.
Therefore, Deng Sui tried to recruit princes and close relatives of the Deng family who were over five years old, and both men and women went to a specially opened school to study classics, trying to lead by example and upgrade women's family education to school education.
Let the subjects know that women can also learn calligraphy and reading.
In 121 AD, Deng Sui, who was in his forties, became increasingly ill.
"There is nothing we can do about life and death, and the end of our lifespan. The ministers and officials should try their best to be loyal and prudent and assist the court."
These were the last words Deng Sui left to all civil and military officials.
The small seedling that year gradually grew into a big tree.
It has been nearly eight years since Sheng'er passed away.
He Emperor Liu Zhao has also been buried in the imperial mausoleum for sixteen years.
She supported this dynasty and worked hard for sixteen years.
Now, I can't walk anymore.
I don’t know if future generations will be able to shoulder the responsibility and continue to lead the man who finally found stability.
I don’t know whether those who come after her will remember her for her light corvee and virtue-oriented policies, her frugality in relieving famines, her conquest of northern captives and the destruction of pirates, or whether they will only remember her for her powerful position and her use of eunuchs to suppress aristocratic families.
It doesn't matter anymore.
Sheng'er once said, don't worry about your future when doing good deeds.
Sheng'er also said that thousands of years from now, someone will remember her efforts.
In fact, at the end of life, I feel that reputation is not important anymore.
Whether she leaves her name in history or is covered up in history books, she has tried her best in this life.
She wanted to stand at the top of power, and she did.
She never shied away from the responsibilities she shouldered.
Maybe, what she did was not good enough, but she tried her best.
She made the man emerge from natural and man-made disasters and show a state of rejuvenation.
Deng Sui was forty-one years old and was posthumously named "Queen Hexi". He was buried in Shun Tomb together with Liu Zhao, Emperor He of the Han Dynasty.
To rise and destroy a country, to continue the unparalleled world.
Record the heroes and restore the clan.
She is an uncrowned queen and a powerful queen mother.
The story of Deng Sui has come to an end. When I first decided to write about this character, I mainly wanted to let everyone know that thousands of years ago, there was such a woman who was not worthy of her husband.
Deng Sui is unknown among the women who have been passed down to this day, and is not that well-known.
But she is not ordinary. Su Shi once praised "Hexi flourished in the Eastern Han Dynasty"
Deng Sui should not be buried under the sands of history.
The end of this story can make everyone understand Deng Sui, which is the value of this story.
