Chapter 102: The Last Chapter of Emperor Liu Hong of Han
"If it is impossible to do so, then secretly order Dong Zhuo of Liangzhou to come to the capital. Compared with other regions, Liangzhou is less infiltrated by aristocratic families, so I feel more at ease."
Liu Hong continued talking, looking at Guo Hao's young face and feeling a little dazed.
"If only Xie'er could be as outstanding as Pengju, I wouldn't have to worry so much." Liu Hong thought so. At this moment, he was just a father who was worried about his son.
"With you here, I'm sure Dong Zhuo won't be able to cause any big trouble. Pengju, I'm counting on you."
Guo Hao had no hesitation in his heart. Liu Xie was young, which was a perfect opportunity for him to show his talents.
"I will certainly live up to your Majesty's trust!" Guo Hao's resounding answer made Liu Hong very satisfied.
"I also entrust the Yulin Guard to you. Xie'er knows nothing about military affairs, so I'm afraid it will be useless for him to command the Yulin Guard." Liu Hong handed the tiger talisman representing the Yulin Guard to Guo Hao.
He didn't completely trust Guo Hao, but now he had no one he could trust.
No matter what, Guo Hao is still a young man with a passionate heart. He is also entrusted with an important task, so he is definitely better than others.
The Han Emperor leaned on a soft cushion made of bright yellow silk, talking to Guo Hao with his eyes closed, telling stories about his youth. He didn't know if his end was really approaching, and a scene from the past began to replay in his mind.
Just after the cockcrow, the palace was deserted.
There were still about two hours before dawn. The palace was brightly lit, but the silence was suffocating.
The person he sent to invite He Jin did not come back, and He Jin did not enter the palace to meet him.
The last bit of hope in Liu Hong's heart disappeared, and He Jin had indeed forgotten the gift from heaven.
To put it bluntly, the reason why Liu Hong chose Liu Xie was because Liu Xie had no relatives behind him.
Liu Xie's mother died very early, and her death was inexplicable. By the time he found out that it was Empress He who was responsible, He Rui had already taken the position of Empress. Even though he wanted to depose the Empress, he had to succumb to the complexity of reality.
After all, with external relatives like He Jin and the existence of the Ten Eunuchs, he already controls the court. In a few years, he will be able to weaken the aristocratic families to the point where they will be unable to resist the imperial power.
But the aristocratic families are not made of clay after all, and the Taiping Sect is definitely their work.
Although they also suffered a lot of losses due to the Taiping Sect that got out of control later, it was definitely the aristocratic families who supported them from behind in the beginning.
In this game, he lost and even lost his life.
He didn't want his successor to face such a terrifying challenge again.
Liu Xie is not him, and there is no one like him in the entire palace.
The Han Dynasty was on its last legs. Even if Liu Hong was unwilling to admit it, the Han Dynasty was indeed on its last legs.
In the past, he allowed anyone to come into contact with the party members because he was there and he could suppress them.
But now that he is gone, the young Liu Bian and Liu Xie are unable to deal with He Jin and his party members, even with the Ten Eunuchs mediating.
Liu Hong waited and waited patiently...but the longer he waited, the more uneasy he felt.
All of a sudden, the Han emperor sensed that someone was attacking the palace, and the guards guarding the palace did not even put up a resistance.
In his prime, he could even summon dragon energy to kill on the spot all the people who entered the palace, but now he was so weak that even his perception was vague.
"Okay, okay, okay." Liu Hong smiled angrily. He was indeed a member of a noble family and the backbone of the Han Dynasty.
They dared to mobilize troops before Liu Hong died. They really don't take him seriously.
"Qian Shuo, Peng Ju, did you hear any sound?"
Guo Hao and Qian Shuo were startled, and they tilted their ears to release their perception to the outside world. After a moment, their faces changed drastically.
Someone actually attacked the palace.
Before the two could answer, louder and louder noises were heard outside the palace.
"Purge the emperor's entourage and punish the eunuchs!"
"Purge the emperor's entourage and punish the eunuchs!"
"Purge the emperor's entourage and punish the eunuchs!"
Immediately afterwards, the guards patrolling the palace and the team shouting slogans fought together, and the sound of swords clashing became closer and clearer.
A young eunuch stumbled into Changle Palace, looking panicked: "Your Majesty, this is bad, Your Majesty..."
"What happened?" Qian Shuo picked up the little eunuch and asked.
"General He Jin led his men into the palace, calling for the extermination of the emperor's entourage and the execution of the eunuch clique including the Ten Eunuchs. They rushed all the way here... The guards at the four gates of the palace did not resist, but joined the general's team."
Liu Hong sneered: "What a great general, what a noble family."
However, he did not take the people outside seriously at all. The Yulin Guards were not as simple as outsiders imagined.
The Imperial Guards are also divided into different levels, and the Yulin Guards, which have been passed down in the Han Dynasty for four hundred years, are obviously not that simple.
Liu Hong was originally worried that the aristocratic families would plot some conspiracy and use shady tactics from all sides, but he did not expect that these aristocratic families actually planned to attack by force.
It's a good opportunity to kill them all.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the armies of the eight schools of Xiyuan are also marching into the capital!" The little eunuch's voice sounded as if his father had died.
Guo Hao's expression changed: "How many people are there?"
"There are about 20,000 people!"
"Who's leading this?"
"The Eight Commanders of Xiyuan, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Zhang Su, Guo Ye, Dong Zhuo, Lu Bu, and Liu Bei, are all among them!"
Before the three people in the room could come back to their senses, the young eunuch continued to reveal: "There are also Luoyang Ling, Lord Sikong, and Lord Situ, they are all among them!"
Guo Hao was completely dumbfounded. Why would he become an enemy of the world as soon as he woke up?
No, Guo Hao suddenly had an idea and finally realized the problem.
How could a little eunuch know so much?
Guo Hao came to his senses and was about to speak out a reminder.
The young eunuch turned into a stream of wind and rushed straight towards Emperor Liu Hong of Han.
“Damn it!”
Guo Hao kicked the young eunuch away, and the attack of the Yulin Guards arrived in an instant, and the young eunuch turned into ashes in an instant.
The commander of the Yulin Guard was also shocked by the news from the young eunuch. When he was considering how to meet the enemy, something unexpected happened suddenly.
Several people reacted a little too slowly, and it was this little delay that caused Liu Hong to lose his life.
There was a dagger stuck in the Han emperor's heart and he was already dead.
Guo Hao pulled out the dagger and arranged the Han emperor's body with an extremely gloomy expression.
He looked at the dagger in his hand, Yuchang, a famous dagger artifact.
Not only was it extremely sharp, it was also coated with a deadly poison. Emperor Liu Hong of Han died instantly, leaving no chance for anyone to save him.
But all the immortals had been driven out of the palace long ago, and even if they were there, Liu Hong would be powerless to save the situation.
The immortals cannot use time reversal on Liu Hong, as the national destiny in Liu Hong's body will instantly turn them into idiots.
"Follow me and kill the enemy!"
Guo Hao walked out of Changle Palace in a rage. He was very unhappy, very unhappy that Liu Hong died in front of him.
