After watching Yang Shihou slowly enter the palace gate and walk a certain distance, Yang Jian's originally tense face seemed to relax slightly, but it seemed that he had not changed at all.
Inside the palace, towering palaces and pavilions rise from the ground. The earth-yellow palace buildings are surrounded by the palace officials and eunuchs who shuttle around. There is a sense of nobility everywhere, and there is also a vigorous spirit of being arrogant.
In the past, no one should be cautious when entering the palace, and be careful about their words and deeds.
But today, Yang Jian led a group of fully armed elite knights straight to the palace. Several eunuchs opened their palace robes like big quails in great panic, dangling the two hanging curtains on the sides of their black gauze hats, and anxiously blocked the front.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Your Majesty hasn't gotten up yet! You can't break in, it's against the rules!" Miao Xian led Shi Yuanya and Tu Wenfu to stand in front of Yang Jian and said with a panicked expression.
As soon as these people saw Yang Jian appearing in the palace with such a big fanfare, their hearts immediately clicked, and they all secretly guessed that something big was going to happen today.
Although they were afraid, but now that Yang Jian was trying to break into the emperor's palace with such murderous intent, they had no choice but to stand in front of Yang Jian.
These people are all eunuchs, and the power of eunuchs comes from imperial power. If the imperial power changes, the power of the eunuchs will be greatly affected. Therefore, eunuchs must be loyal to the emperor and at least maintain the imperial authority in order to maintain their power.
In the same way, these eunuchs are loyal to Liu Xie, and these are the only eunuchs Liu Xie can use now.
In Chinese history, relatives, important ministers, local powerful people, farmers, foreigners, and even women have all been emperors, and they may pose a threat to the emperor's position.
But eunuchs alone have never been emperors (Cao Teng was granted the title by his great-grandson). Eunuchs have no descendants and have no close relationship with their families.
Therefore, the eunuch cannot be the emperor, and no one will support him. In this way, even if the eunuch is unfavorable to the emperor after taking power, then even if the emperor is abolished, he will only support the descendants of the royal family to become emperor.
In this way, the throne still belongs to one's own family. If someone else had deposed the emperor, the throne would have been changed long ago. Therefore, eunuchs pose little threat to the emperor and can naturally gain trust.
Especially in Liu Xie's current situation, he could only rely on the eunuchs around him. If it weren't for these eunuchs, Liu Xie's current situation under Yang Jian's control would only be worse.
"Miao Xian, Shi Yuanya, Tu Wenfu!" Yang Jian coldly spit out the names of these three people.
"Your Majesty!" The three of them hurriedly knelt down and saluted.
"Catch him!"
This time Yang Jian came here to kill the chicken to scare the monkey. If Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty Liu Xie is the monkey, then these eunuchs, courtiers and even some aristocratic families who have been following Liu Xie's orders to stir up trouble during this period are these chickens.
In Liu Xie's palace.
High-quality silks and satins, gold and silver utensils, lacquerware and ornaments, many things here are not even found in the Sui Palace, but they can be seen everywhere here. It can be seen that Yang Jian has done a good job in the most basic face-saving project.
Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, had a crown on his head and a black dragon robe. His face was slightly fat and his cheekbones were round. Although a look of fear flashed across his face from time to time, he still insisted on standing upright. He struggled to maintain a seemingly majestic appearance.
"Old minister Yang Jian, pay homage to Your Majesty!" After meeting Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, Yang Jian slightly put away his anger, clasped his hands into fists, but gently bent down and said.
"My dear, no courtesy!" Liu Xie tried his best to keep a calm look and said, "I wonder why my dear came here today?"
"Your Majesty, Miao Xian, Wei Zhongxian, Wang Tiqian, Li Yongzhen, Shi Yuanya, Tu Wenfu and others are ungrateful for the kindness of Heaven and have conspired to collude with Dong Zhuo's remnants with the intention of treason.
Now that the remnants of Dong Zhuo have been put to death, Miao Xian, Wei Zhongxian, Wang Tiqian, Li Yongzhen, Shi Yuanya, and Tu Wenfu are still at large. Please kill them quickly! "Yang Jian stood up straight again, staring indifferently at Liu Xie in front of him, with a hint of ferocity in his voice.
"Tian Ergeng, Xu Xianchun, Cui Yingyuan, Sun Yunhe, Yang Sheng, as well as the Ding, Ma, Fu, Zhang, Huang and other aristocratic families in the city all have evil intentions and secretly participated in the rebellion. Now most of them have been detained by the old ministers. Please make your decision! "Yang Jian continued with a cold voice.
This time, Yang Jian did not show any mercy to Han Xian Emperor Liu Xie, nor was he willing to give Liu Xie the slightest chance.
Today, he, Yang Jian, will wipe out all the power of the little emperor in one fell swoop. At the same time, he also wanted to use the blood of these people to make the little emperor properly recognize his position.
After experiencing the purges of Dong Zhuo and Yang Jian, the remaining officials this time are likely to be the last few veterans who are still loyal to the Han Dynasty. The others are just grassroots and will never risk the lives of the whole family. He fought against Yang Jian for Liu Xie.
If all the people Yang Jian mentioned just now are executed, I am afraid that Liu Xie will no longer have any power of his own in Chang'an City, and will no longer have any room to resist. He can only obediently regard himself as his own. Puppet.
Moreover, now Yang Jian is clearly forcing Liu Xie to issue an order to kill these people. If Liu Xie really issued this order, then who would be willing to serve Liu Xie in the future?
Therefore, Liu Xie was unwilling to issue this order no matter what.
"My dear, I must have made a mistake in this matter. All the gentlemen are loyal to me and to the Han Dynasty, so how could they commit rebellion?" Forcefully resisting Yang Jian's pressure, Liu Xie suppressed the fear in his heart and forced Said to Yang Jian.
"Your Majesty, the evidence is irrefutable. Please make a quick decision!" Yang Jian put the sword in his hand in front of him. While looking at the sword in front of him, he slightly pulled out an inch from time to time while continuing to speak emotionlessly.
"Love... love you..." Liu Xie also looked at the sword in front of Yang Jian, and then at the murderous soldiers around him, knowing that it was really impossible to be kind today.
At this time, Liu Xie's dignity and calmness that he had been deliberately maintaining were finally completely frightened by Yang Jian's threats. However, although his voice was almost trembling and out of tune, and his teeth were chattering, he still shook his head heavily with great difficulty.
"Your Majesty, how can I not kill the treasonous thief!" As soon as Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty opened his mouth, Yang Jian shouted violently and looked at Liu Xie with murderous intent in his eyes.
No matter how hard Liu Xie persisted, Yang Jian had made up his mind today. Therefore, he was not willing to give in at all and kept pushing Emperor Xian of Han to the last corner.
