Diao Chan only felt that her right eye was getting hotter and hotter, but her whole body was getting colder and colder.
From Luo Xiao's point of view, a constantly changing moon appeared between Diao Chan's eyebrows, changing from the full moon to the waning moon according to the thirty days of January.
This was the first time Luo Xiao saw traces appearing between people's eyebrows besides the stigmata.
Diao Chan felt that her right eye was extremely hot, and then suddenly turned into an extreme cold. The person who appeared in front of her changed completely. It was a man with a face like a crown jewel, a handsome man, the most handsome Diao Chan had ever seen in her life. man.
"So this is your true appearance, Taoist Master!"
Luo Xiao looked at Diao Chan. Her left eye was still black, but her right eye turned into a starry sky. Her pupils turned into a full moon spinning in it. The starlight covering her body seemed to be shining on Diao Chan's body. Disappeared.
"Why do only women have this ability?"
This question was probably only known to Ji Zhao. Diao Chan asked curiously: "Taoist Master, why don't you want to be with me?"
Diao Chan's attributes are not low. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, she was able to withstand such great pressure, deal with two high-ranking men, and perfectly complete the tasks assigned to her by Wang Yun.
You must know that those are Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu. How many ministers don't even have the courage to talk next to them. From this, it can be seen that Diao Chan is determined and wise, and is not a simple vase.
She keenly sensed that Luo Xiao had no such thoughts about her, so she asked, "Is it because I'm not beautiful enough?"
Although he couldn't see her anymore, as her future brother, Luo Xiao still had a good attitude and said with a smile: "You are a woman given by God. Your beauty will bring you luck or disaster. You need protection. I Not the one who can protect you.
In the past thirteen hundred years, people such as Xizi, Ji Lingjun, and Wang Wenjun have taken refuge in the Luo family. Maybe one day you can also take shelter in the Luo family?
That is the refuge of a beauty like you. I heard that women's intuition is very accurate, but I hope you can kill all your intuition now. "
Diao Chan was startled. She was indeed a smart woman, and she vaguely guessed Luo Xiao's identity.
Luo Xiao stood up from the table, paused for a moment when passing Diao Chan, and said with emotion: "When you feel that your life is happy and perfect in the future, don't forget to bring your husband to burn a stick of incense for me."
Luo Xiao walked to the courtyard, looked at the excited expression on Wang Yun's face, patted his shoulder and said: "Your Majesty, please let the lady live in the mansion, and ten maids will come to the mansion later.
Let the young lady learn more music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and read more books. Isn't Mr. Bojie here?
Please ask Mr. Bojie to teach Miss Diaochan.
Prince, what you did today saved your life. The destiny of the Han Dynasty has been lost. What are you worried about here every day? "
When Wang Yun heard this, he froze on the spot for a moment, and his face, which was rosy with excitement just now, instantly turned pale. He didn't expect that his thoughts would be clearly seen.
Luo Xiao didn't pay attention and left directly, followed by the commanders of the Taiping Army.
…
The next day.
In front of Luoyang Palace, the officials, courtiers, scholars from the Imperial Academy, and even some common people gathered under the square of the North Palace.
Most people had a look of fear on their faces, thinking that Luo Xiao didn't want to pretend anymore and was going to kill them all.
Almost everyone in the Taiping Army received a high reward, and now they are standing in a row under the North Palace in high spirits.
When the people in the square were almost there, the Taiping Army received the order, struck with their swords and shields, and shouted: "Quiet! Silence!"
The square was completely quiet, and Luo Xiao walked out of the palace, stood under the steps, and looked at the people under the steps from a distance.
Everyone under the steps also looked up at him. Against the backdrop of the sun, circles of light appeared around him. Zhang Jiao was the tallest person standing. Who was the tallest person?
Isn't he the emperor?
This scene made everyone feel a little dazed.
Luo Xiao summoned the former Han court ministers in Luoyang City to come here to discuss the posthumous title.
The commanders of the Taiping Army were not very educated. Although Luo Xiao had a plan in mind, he still needed the help of these Han court ministers for this matter.
After all, his main purpose was not to give these emperors and ministers of the Han Dynasty a posthumous name, but to complete the last step of his political goals. Since he was going to send the Han Dynasty on his way, he naturally had to cover everything.
Luo Xiao's voice came down from the high platform, with a slight tone of concentration: "Since the creation of the world by King Su, there have been thousands of innovations.
One of them, called the posthumous title, is intended to honor the achievements of the predecessors and to rectify the faults of the predecessors.
They have their own posthumous titles: Xia Jie, Shang Zhou, Zhou You, Zhou Li, Zhou Huang, and Han Li. Only the world knows that there are such kings.
I have called you here today to discuss the posthumous title of the last emperor of the Han Dynasty. "
Posthumous title?
Luo Xiao's words made everyone a little confused. Except for King Zhou of Shang, there had never been any posthumous titles given to previous kings.
What does Zhang Jiao want to do?
Everyone raised their heads and looked at Zhang Jiao high up, with no expression on their faces, as if the words just now were not his.
Then those people who were very sensitive to politics realized that Zhang Jiao had always wanted to flaunt his justice and believed that he was a Tang-Wu revolution, but it was still unclear whether the world would recognize it or not.
But there is no propaganda in the world that is more convincing than giving the late emperor a bad posthumous title.
What does an emperor with a bad posthumous title mean?
It means that he is a monoman who everyone can kill!
If you don't kill him, it's your fault. How can you blame the person who killed him?
If the former emperor was really given a bad posthumous title, even if Prince Bian really ascended the throne as emperor in Chang'an, he would still have to pinch his nose and say that Zhang Jiao killed well!
The Taiping Army suddenly changed from the rebels who were the enemy of the world to the righteous party. Nothing can be cleared faster than this.
Will the emperor be given a bad posthumous title?
As long as everyone present thought about it for a moment, their faces turned pale. The worst ones might be a bit too much, but there are more than twenty evil ones, and the less extreme ones are totally fine.
"The posthumous title is given to King Su and the Emperor. There must be no more just title in this world than the posthumous title.
When we and the Taiping Army raised troops, people all over the world had different opinions, whether they were thieves or righteous, and they were all disturbing us. Who can say clearly?
But isn’t the cruelty of the late Emperor of the Later Han Dynasty obvious?
If such a person cannot bring his notoriety to the Emperor, wouldn't this be the most terrifying thing?
We are here today to discuss his posthumous title.
The raging flame has been ignited by this Taoist master. As long as he writes his posthumous name on the bamboo slips, he can present it to the Emperor Su Wang.
People in this world are always close and distant, and they always have different thoughts, but King Su is just!
You were once ministers of the Han Dynasty, or you were scholars with talents and learning. You must be familiar with posthumous titles. If you have any thoughts in your mind, you can tell them. "
Under the square, everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one dared to stand up and speak.
Wang Yun thought of what Zhang Jiao had said to him alone, and felt numb in his heart. He took a deep breath and stepped out of the queue. He took a deep look at Luo Xiao, then gritted his teeth and said, "Tao Master, Yun has something to say. It must be possible for him to be an emperor and give him the posthumous title of 'Yin', which means 'if he doesn't know how to mislead the country, he is called Yin'."
"hiss."
As soon as Wang Yun said these words, there was a sudden gasp of air. It was not that the posthumous title was bad, but that it was good.
The Daxing Emperor was definitely not qualified to receive a posthumous title. A king who had subjugated his country would be relatively talented and could only receive a posthumous title if he had no faults.
Most of the posthumous titles are expressed with sympathy and regret, or they simply tell people the basic situation of the emperor.
At this time, Wang Yun dared to give Emperor Daxing a posthumous title. He was such a loyal minister?
Why haven't you discovered it before?
After the Taiping Army entered the city, didn't Wang Yun rush to catch up?
I heard that I wanted to dedicate my daughter to Zhang Jue, but I didn't expect that Zhang Jue was not a womanizer.
Wang Yun just felt miserable in his heart. Although he was loyal to the Han Dynasty, he was not brainless. How could he offend Zhang Jiao at this time?
While everyone was thinking wildly, Luo Xiao's voice dropped with a chill: "The prince is a well-known scholar in the world. He must have considered it thoroughly. Do you have any other suggestions?"
Even a fool could hear the dissatisfaction in Luo Xiao's words. Naturally, no one wanted to talk anymore at this time. They all lowered their heads, worried that Luo Xiao would call their names.
Luo Xiao's face was covered with frost, but there was a smile in his eyes. After a moment, everyone heard Zhang Jue sternly say again: "Wang Yun, Wang Yun, you are really evil.
There is justice between heaven and earth. Although hidden words are not beautiful, how can they be enjoyed by a single man?
How many veterans of the Han Dynasty are there like you?
If you don't hit Nanshan, you won't know how to look back. If you don't see the river, you won't know you have made a big mistake. In the past three hundred years, no posthumous title has ever been rejected, which makes you feel a little disrespectful.
Do you still want to insist on staying with him? "
Posthumous title rejected?
No one has really thought about this because the posthumous titles have been judged relatively fairly over the past three hundred years, at least the upper, middle and lower levels of posthumous titles are relatively fair.
What will happen if the posthumous title is rejected now?
Some people feel quite explosive just thinking about it. Isn't this an attempt to deceive the Emperor?
Someone quickly whispered: "Prince, you cannot take the posthumous title of Yin. Emperor Daxing is not qualified!"
There was a slight sound coming from below. Luo Xiao's face was still full of chills, as if he was very dissatisfied, but in fact he was in a very good mood.
Wang Yun was naturally arranged by him.
In fact, he had two options regarding the posthumous title.
The first method is to directly submit the posthumous title, and then King Su directly rejects the posthumous title. This method is the simplest and most effective.
However, Luo Xiao felt that using this method always felt like taking advantage of the ancestors, which would make people lack awe of the ancestors. He respected the ancestors very much, so he eliminated this method.
The second kind is the current situation. If the former ministers of the Han Dynasty propose that the emperor is not qualified to be given the posthumous title, especially if Wang Yun, the candidate who proposed the posthumous title, changes his choice, there will be a strong contrast. .
In just a few breaths, several people told Wang Yun that they could not give him a posthumous title. What they meant was that he would be given an evil posthumous title.
And there is also a hidden meaning. You were so brave just now, so if you try again now, your reputation will be almost ruined anyway. It doesn't matter if you have another reputation for being capricious.
Wang Yun felt extremely disgusted in his heart, thinking that he had reached this point anyway, so he asked loudly: "Since all the princes think that Emperor Daxing should not be given a middle posthumous title, do you want to give him an evil posthumous title?"
You want me to fight this alone?
Then you are dreaming!
The Taoist master said that he should bring it up with the ministers, and no one should run away. Everyone should be loyal to the Han Dynasty. So Wang Yun called his name one by one. Now everyone's expressions changed drastically. They didn't expect that Wang Yun would do what he did. It's so absolute that it's impossible to be vague when being called out in such a situation.
"How's the spirit?"
The reward was too poor, and it was really a loss of character. After all, he was the old master, and he did not kill him himself. This was an endorsement for the Taiping Army.
Ling doesn't look that bad, but in fact the difference between him and Jie Zhou Youli is that one points his nose and scolds, and the other scolds in a roundabout way. Jie Zhou Youli scolds him for not being a good person, while Ling scolds him for not doing human things. A normal person.
"Master Taoist, this is the result given by the great Confucian scholars after some deliberation. The last emperor's moral character was corrupt. It would be a pity for the world not to give him a bad posthumous title!"
After the Han Dynasty official finished this thing, he suddenly felt that his mood was at ease. What was he still struggling with?
The Taiping Army did not resist when they entered Luoyang, and the emperor did not commit suicide when he died. Now they actively gave the emperor a bad posthumous title. If someone says that they are loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, will anyone really believe it?
Unless they can recreate the Han Dynasty and return power to the Liu family, nothing will be done to them.
Luo Xiao held the bamboo slip and came to the flames offering sacrifices to Emperor Su Wang, "Bing Su Wang, Emperor Su, Heavenly Minister Zhang Jiao, posthumous title of Emperor of the Han Dynasty, please present!
Please ask the Emperor Su to review it. "
As he spoke, he put the bamboo slips directly into the brazier, and the flames instantly engulfed the bamboo slips. Within a short time, a raging fire ignited, and then a wisp of green smoke went straight up to the nine heavens.
Nothing happened until the flames went out.
Luo Xiao turned around. Many people were a little disappointed. As expected, King Su recognized the posthumous title. "The Emperor Su recognized it. Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty, who will speak for Du Fu?"
Luo Xiao's voice was very loud, echoing from the steps to the corners of the palace wall, and everyone fell silent.
————
The Ling Emperor is disgusted. Every time the people in the world think of the Ling Emperor, it makes people angry. He has no sympathy for the people and disrespects the destiny. At that time, the nobility was everywhere, the officials were bribed, and the people were suppressed. As a result, the peace rose and the imperial palace was empty. Isn't this not the case? What a pain! ——"Book of the Later Han·The Chronicles of Emperor Ling"
