    A rare heavy snow also covered Luoyang, the capital of the Eastern Han Empire; for those poor people at the bottom of society, this heavy snow was like putting them in hell; in the cold wind and snow, every day  There are a large number of poor people freezing to death in the wilderness, just like the crystal clear human body ice sculpture art, at the cost of countless lives, adding endless weird beauty to this ice and snow world

    Next door to hell is the paradise of the strong. The same heavy snowfall is a rare good weather for those in the upper echelons. They either wear mink fur and climb up to admire the snow scenery, or invite three or five close friends to sit around the fire.  Drinking and talking, in the eyes of the powerful, this is a poetic winter; the miserable and wailing sounds of countless people cannot be heard in the inner courtyard of the palace, but the sounds of extravagant enjoyment in the palace can be heard throughout the world

    Luoyang Imperial Palace, West Garden, a high palace wall completely separates this place from the miserable world outside. Outside is a hell like ice and snow, but inside the palace is a warm and spring-like paradise; the warm pavilions on both sides of the palace are decorated with  A large number of copper braziers were placed inside, burning high-quality silver frost charcoal that was as valuable as gold. As the charcoal fire rose, the air was filled with the scent of pine wood, and streaks of heating white mist filled it, making it feel like a fairyland on earth.  ¡­

    At this time, the supreme ruler of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong, was enjoying the artificial spring while lying on the luxurious dragon couch. The dragon couch was large and heavy, covered with thick velvet, warm and comfortable.  You can sit and lie on it, and more importantly, this dragon couch represents the pinnacle of power in the world; it can be said without politeness that although the Han Empire was large, this soft couch several feet wide was the core!

    A luxurious black and gold five-claw dragon robe is hung half-draped and half-covered on the Ling Emperor. The dragon robes of the Han Dynasty mainly followed the characteristics of the dragon robes of the Qin Dynasty, "living in water and wearing black."  After that, successive dynasties determined their destiny according to the theory of Five Virtues, End and Beginning, according to metal, wood, water, fire and earth. Therefore, the color of dragon robes also varied. It was not until the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period that yellow began to be used as a symbol of destiny.  The most noble colors were designated exclusively for the emperor and continued by other dynasties in later generations.

    Dozens of beauties from all over the country were carefully waiting on him. Any one of these young women selected from all over the country could be said to be the most beautiful woman in the country. At this time, he could pick them at will, just like picking a cherry in a vegetable garden.  It's so easy. There are hundreds of eunuchs from the Little Huangmen standing in the palace, waiting for the emperor's orders at any time. Outside the palace, under the imperial steps, countless golden-armored warriors are loyally guarding them with spears and swords. As long as the emperor issues any order, the entire empire will immediately  There will be countless people who will sacrifice their lives for the sake of those who came before them; this is the supreme imperial power, and the world is dedicated to one person. If a high official is an immortal, then the emperor is the immortal among immortals!

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Many of the emperors in China like to enjoy the right of ¡°serving the world for one person¡±. On the contrary, there are only a few who can ¡°serve the world for one person¡±, and more of them are tyrants, foolish kings, mediocre kings,

    Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, who is just 32 years old this year, is at the golden age of youth and strength. Unfortunately, under the influence of countless beauties, wine, and delicious food in the palace, his body is now extremely weak, and his dry and yellowish bun is like a fallen leaf in the wind.  , it fell off very badly, the eyes were dim and lifeless in the black eye circles, the skinny cheeks seemed to be attached to the bones, looking as scary as a skeleton, and so thin that a weak gust of wind could blow it down.  The body, everything about it, tells the world that this is a body that has been completely hollowed out by wine and sex.

    Tightening the black gold dragon robe tightly, Liu Hong didn't want others to see his frail body under the dragon robe, and he liked the dragon robe on him very much, because this dragon robe had a kind of magic power, as long as it was him  Everything you can think of seems to come true.  For example, a few days ago, when he looked at the frozen lake and the withered flowers and plants in the Royal Garden, he had a sudden thought: "What if I could take a boat trip on the lake in the cold winter and enjoy the boundless spring scenery, accompanied by red flowers and green leaves?"  of freedom

    As a result, a few days later, he got his wish and saw the boundless spring scenery in the heavy snow. The maids cut a large amount of silk, "red silk for flowers, green satin for leaves, tied with silk threads" As a result, the flowers and trees around the imperial garden were overnight.  Everything is in full bloom; the thick ice on the lake has been broken with sharp tools, and colorful 'lotus leaves' are floating on it. The beauty of spring appears in front of you like a dream. It's really "  No matter how heavy the snow is all over the world, my garden will be filled with peach blossoms!"

    It can be said that Ling Emperor Liu Hong was lucky in the eyes of everyone. He was originally the great-great-grandson of Han Zhang Emperor Liu Jin, and his great-grandfather was Liu Kai, the Xiaowang of Hejian. When it was passed down to his father Liu Chang, there was only one left on his head.  The title of Marquis of Jiedu Ting was given to him, and he only had 1,000 poor households and a small piece of barren fiefdom under his command. In addition, his father died young, so Liu Hong inherited the title at a very young age.title; but in the end, he who thought he would be a rich man in the countryside for the rest of his life was favored by God.

    In the first year of Yongkang, Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty died without a son to succeed him. After discussion among the ministers, Liu Hong was surprisingly chosen to inherit the throne.  So Empress Dowager Dou sent Liu Shu, the imperial censor, Cao Jie, the captain of Fengche, and others from the countryside to welcome Liu Hong to Luoyang to ascend the throne.  A young aristocratic boy from the countryside who was originally in decline suddenly became the master of this great empire. What he owned was no longer the barren land, but the boundless mountains and rivers. He was exactly 10 years old that year, and on the day he entered Luoyang City,  He felt like he was dreaming. No, even the sweetest dreams may not have been so wonderful, but the dream in front of him was so real that he was addicted to this feeling of intoxication for 22 years  ¡­

    During these 22 years, Liu Hong seems to be doing one thing every day, and that is playing!

    In fact, everyone likes to play, especially men. Even if they are busy at work, they will take a break to play for a while, so some people say (that is what women say:) "A man is a child who never grows up!"

    However, people like Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, whose main occupation and life goal are playing, and who can continue playing for decades, are too rare; when they were young, they played with pets and games, and when they grew up, they played with beautiful women and prostituted officials;  As long as an emperor can own and play with everything in this world, he seems to be playing with it; so that everyone from the public officials to the common people think that he is a foolish king, a mediocre king, and a fool with a negative IQ!

    hehe!  It's a pity that the eyes are often the most deceptive. In fact, Liu Hong is not stupid, on the contrary, he has a very smart mind. He has seen everything clearly from the day he entered the palace. The current Han Dynasty is no longer the Han Dynasty during the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.  Well, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was a heroic leader. He spoke the Constitution of Heaven and followed the law. He held the Emperor's Sword in his hands throughout his life and was decisive in killing. No one dared to resist. The prime minister, who was known as the leader of hundreds of officials, killed six of them.  That is the real 'Son of God!'  ¡¯

    And what is before Liu Hong now?  The imperial power had long been evaded little by little by relatives, eunuchs, and nobles. All that was left to him was suppression, constraints, helplessness, and the emperor's last resort

    The reason why he chose to play every day was because the regent Empress Dowager Dou wanted him to play, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty wanted him to play, and the powerful eunuchs around him wanted him to play even more, so he had to play, because as long as he thought hard, he would play.  It¡¯s clear what happened to the emperors before him who didn¡¯t know how to play and were unwilling to play:

    Emperor Zhang Liu Jin ascended the throne at the age of 18, reigned for 13 years, and died at the age of 31.

    Emperor Liu Zhao ascended the throne at the age of 10, lived for 17 years, and died at the age of 27.

    The Shang Emperor Liu Long was just one month old when he came to the throne, and died after reigning for 8 months.

    Emperor An, Liu Hu, ascended the throne at the age of 13, lived for 19 years, and died at the age of 32.

    Shun Emperor Liu Bao ascended the throne at the age of 11 and reigned for 19 years.  Died at the age of 30.

    Chong Emperor Liu Bing ascended the throne when he was 2 years old. He reigned for less than half a year and died at the age of 3.

    Emperor Zhi Liu Zan ascended the throne at the age of 8.  He reigned for one year and died at the age of 9.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: All seven emperors in the Eastern Han Dynasty died short-lived, and the oldest one did not live past the age of 32. How many conspiracies, and how many power struggles were behind these emperors who died unnaturally?  There are intrigues and intrigues in the palace, and fierce battles in the court. How many ferocious wolves are hiding in this seemingly peaceful city of Luoyang?

    In the eyes of others, the palace is like a fairy, but in the eyes of Ling Emperor Liu Hong, it is more like a huge coffin. There is no way to escape or run away. I don't know how many nights he wakes up suddenly from nightmares, sweating profusely all over his body.  The dragon robe on his body was soaked; in the dark, he always felt that the seven deceased emperors were not far from his bed, calling him repeatedly, "Let's go! Let's go together!"  Come with us!"

    The current world of the Han Dynasty is like a cauldron. The emperor sits on top of the cauldron, and the relatives, eunuchs, and nobles are the three legs supporting the cauldron. They fight with each other and restrict each other. No matter which one is missing,  However, this tripod will overturn immediately; in order to save his life, what Ling Emperor Liu Hong has to do is to maintain the balance between the three tripod legs. If the one is short, he will pad it, and if the one is long, he will grind it.  Therefore, when the power of the eunuchs grew, Emperor Ling went against all objections and appointed his relative He Jin as a general. Similarly, when Empress He relied on the power of her natal family to become domineering, Emperor Ling began to reuse the ten permanent servants; just like this, relying on subtlety  With his balancing skills, he sat on the throne peacefully for twenty-two years. After this winter, he will be 33 years old. Living to this age is enough to make him proud of the seven generations of Han before him.  The late emperor.

    Others will always see only the emperor's happiness, and no one will ever know the emperor's pain. Only those who really sit in that seat know the pain of being an emperor. Unfortunately, because there can only be one person sitting on the throne, this kind of  The pain is unspeakable, let alone shared. The emperor can only endure it silently. This is also the price of being a 'son of heaven'

    Thinking back on his miserable life, Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong could only curse God secretly in his heart: "The emperor is really not made of a human being!" (Remember this site's website address: www.hlnovel.com)The price of a son¡¯s¡­
