Chapter 442 The Young Emperor ascends the throne

"No, boss, absolutely not. It's too dangerous for you to go into the city alone to meet Lu Bu." After hearing Han Tao's decision, Ma Yuan immediately stood up to stop him.

"Yes, brother, Luoyang is already pressing in full force, just to prevent our army from having another chance to sneak in. At this time, if the adventure into the city is discovered by Yuan Shao or Ding Yuan's troops, there will definitely be a disaster. I think it's better to arrange for others to deliver the letter." Han Chong also persuaded Han Tao.

"Is it not dangerous to go to someone else? What's more, in order to convince Lu Bu, in addition to Diao Chan's letters, we also need to show enough sincerity. Besides me going in person, who else can have the possibility of persuading Lu Bu?" Han Tao was very persistent in his opinion.

"Lu Bu is too stupid and loyal. What if he knew that his brother was going, but he ignored his old love and killed him, but he would do it?" Han Chong continued to persuade Han Tao.

"Lu Bu is extremely loyal and righteous, but he is definitely not a person who kills innocent people indiscriminately. What's more, the two armies are fighting and not killing them, so he should not harm me. Don't worry, just lead the troops outside the city and be a good guard." Han Tao still insisted.

"Then let Wen Su bring the Black Armored Army with you." Han rushed to Han Tao and suggested.

"Do you think it's up to him to bring a few black armored troops to stop Lu Bu? You can't beat him from both sides, so why should you bring more people to increase the danger? It's enough for me to go by myself." Han Tao declined Han Chong's proposal.

"But now the Luoyang investigation is so tight now. Brother, what should you do to enter Luoyang?" Han Chong asked Han Tao with some concern.

Han Tao seemed confident and said, "Don't worry, since I dare to propose to go by myself, there will naturally be a way to enter the city. You can wait patiently for my news."

Han Chong and Ma Yuanjian could not convince Han Tao, so they could only nod as he ordered.

...

Ding Yuan’s residence.

Ding Yuan was having a meal, and Zhang Yang hurried into the report: "Lord, Yuan Benchu ​​and Yuan Gonglu are here."

"Oh, please." Ding Yuan put down his pants and ordered Zhang Yang.

Not long after, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu walked in together.

"Benchu, the highway, came to find me. Is there anything important?" Ding Yuan came forward and asked the two of them.

"When I was at the city gate, I didn't say that I should summon the three dukes and nine ministers to enter the palace as soon as possible to welcome the prince Liu Bian to ascend the throne as the new emperor. It's not too late now, so we specially come to invite you to enter the palace together to meet He and discuss the throne ceremony." Yuan Shao explained his purpose to Ding Yuan.

Ding Yuan heard this and responded quickly: "Okay, please wait a moment, I will change my court robes and enter the palace with you."

"Uncle Zhi, go and tell Lu Bu, let him and Wei Xu and Song Xian guard our camp and prevent someone from coming to attack." Ding Yuan assigned the task to Zhang Yang.

Ding Yuan quickly changed the court robes and returned, followed Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu brothers, and brought Zhang Yang into the palace.

When they came to the palace, the three dukes and nine ministers, including Yuan Shao's uncle Yuan Wei, as well as Cui Lie and other important officials of the court, were waiting here.

Together, they submitted memorials to the guards guarding the palace, hoping to meet He Hou.

When Queen He heard the report from the internal supervisor, she hurriedly summoned everyone to the palace.

"What's wrong with the Qing family to meet the Ai family?" After everyone was kneeling down and bowing, He asked carefully.

"Report to the Empress, the country cannot be without a king for a day. I am here today, just to invite Prince Liu Bian to ascend the throne and inherit the throne." Yuan Wei took the lead in responding.

"You really want to support Bian'er ascend the throne?" He Hou asked with some concern.

She looked at Yuan Shao: "Don't Han Tao and Dong Zhuo still have troops? Didn't they object?"

"Please rest assured to the Queen Mother. Last night, the Governor of Bingzhou, Ding Jun, dispatched a surprise attack on Dong Zhuo, greatly slashing his spirit. At this time, all the four gates of Luoyang were closed, and Dong Zhuo and Han Tao's troops were outside the city and could not enter at all."

"As long as we hold the throne ceremony now and support the prince to defend the throne, he will be the son of today. Anyone who dares to raise objections will be a turnaround. I can mobilize the troops from all over the world to fight together." Yuan Shao hurriedly comforted Queen He.

When He Hou heard this, he nodded with confidence: "Since my dear already has such an arrangement, it is up to me to take charge of the throne ceremony as soon as possible."

Therefore, under the leadership of Yuan Wei, Cui Lie and other important officials of the court, the ceremony of ascension to the throne was carried out quickly.

Liu Bian successfully ascended the throne with the support of everyone, and he became the emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, known in history as the Shaodi of Han.

After the Shao Emperor ascended the throne, he immediately issued an edict to honor his mother, Empress He, as the Empress Dowager, who was in charge of the court and changed the lunar name to Guangxi.

At the same time, he issued an edict and began to appoint court officials. Yuan Shao's uncle Yuan Wei was the Grand Tutor, and the position of general was naturally handed over to Yuan Shao. Ding Yuan also got his wish and became the General of the Chariot and Cavalry as he wished.

Then, according to Yuan Shao's arrangement, Liu Bian issued another imperial edict to Han Tao and Dong Zhuo outside the city, asking them to return to Liangzhou to guard the border as soon as possible.

The ceremony of ascension ended immediately, and the young emperor Liu Bian announced his resignation.

Yuan Shao held the imperial edict sent to Dong Zhuo and Han Tao in his hand, and his face was full of pride.

He said to Ding Yuan, Yuan Wei and others: "As long as you send this imperial edict to the military camp outside the city, see how Han Tao and Dong Zhuo respond. If they dare to disobey, we can have a legitimate sanctions on them."

Ding Yuan, Yuan Wei and others nodded one after another.

Yuan Shao immediately arranged a small yellow gate to read the imperial edict to Dong Zhuo and Han Tao.

...

Ding Yuan's garrison, Lu Bu, Song Xian and Wei Xu gathered in his camp.

"Fengxian, you can tolerate such anger. It was obvious that our army won a great victory last night and severely injured Dong Zhuo. When he returned to the city, he was punished by the lord and almost died. I really don't know what the lord was thinking?!" Wei Xu complained first.

"Yes, Fengxian, you have been through life and death for your lord and have made countless achievements, but he only gave Fengxian the position of chief clerk, but instead he used Zhang Yang. It really makes people feel disappointed when they remember it." Song Xian also conformed to Wei Xu's words.

"Oh, don't say such things again. I, Lu Bu, can only be the one who is known to me, have the status of my current status. How dare I complain? My lord refuses to use it with me, because I must want me to go through more trials. I can do things with peace of mind!" Lu Bu disagreed with this, but instead comforted the two of them.
