—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— “The King of Popularity. —————————————————————————————

This morning, Liu Bian arrived at the imperial study room early. Since Emperor Ling had not arrived yet, he was reading a book next to the imperial study room. Not long after, there was a burst of footsteps outside. It was two people who hurriedly walked towards the imperial study room.

Liu Bian's heart moved, this was definitely not the footsteps of Emperor Ling, because Emperor Ling came slowly every time, and there were a large number of eunuchs and guards accompanying him, so it was impossible to be in such a hurry.

So, Liu Bian stood up quietly, came to the back of a bookshelf, and observed the people who were walking towards the imperial study through the gaps between the stacked books to see what they wanted to do.

After a while, two eunuchs, one old and one young, came in. Among them, the old eunuch was Zhao Zhong, and the young eunuch was by his side to wait on him, or he could be said to be his confidant. The expressions of the two were a little flustered.

"Lord Zhao, news came from Ning'an Palace just now, saying that the Holy Majesty is still having dinner with the empress, and he should come back in a while. Don't be so anxious?" the little eunuch asked in a low voice.

"Don't talk so much, go through all the memorials quickly, take out everything that mentions us, and then put these memorials of Shen Huangfusong and Zhu Jun in, move faster, don't wait for the holy up."

Zhao Zhong's sharp voice sounded, and then the two quickly flipped through the memorials on Lingdi's imperial case one after another, and took out some of them while flipping through, and finally took out more than 20 pieces of paper. Book.

The little eunuch seemed to have been prepared for a long time, took out a bag from his body, put all the taken out memorials into it, and then hid it on his body, while Zhao Zhong quickly put the other memorials on the memorial on the imperial case.

"Go quickly, the Holy Majesty is coming."

At this time, footsteps sounded in the distance, and Zhao Zhong and the eunuch quickly left through the side door. After they left, Liu Bian quickly came to the imperial case, opened several memorials on his face, and found Sure enough, they all played Huangfusong and Zhu Jun.

With an idea, he put away all the memorials, and quickly left through the side door. After going outside, he went around and returned to the imperial study room, and he threw all the memorials into the storage ring.

"My son sees my father, my father Sheng'an."

When Liu Bian came to the imperial study room, he found that Emperor Ling had already sat behind the imperial case to check some memorials, while Zhao Zhong, Zhang Rang and others stood beside him, as if nothing happened.

"Bian'er, just stay by the side."

Emperor Ling didn't look up, but waved his hands, still looking at his memorial, Liu Bian walked over, stopped three or five steps away from Emperor Ling, and stayed quietly, as if an old monk was in meditation , only the corner of his eye was scanning Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong.

However, these two old eunuchs are weather-beaten people. Their eyes are drooping, quietly waiting for the order of the Lingdi, as motionless as sculptures. If Liu Bian hadn't seen that scene before, he would have never known them. How daring is it to change the memorial in the royal study of the Holy Majesty, so as to deceive the Holy Majesty and achieve their goal of monopolizing power.

Emperor Ling slowly looked at the memorials one by one, and it took half an hour to finish reading all the memorials. He raised his head and shook his head: "There is no major event today. I really don't know what is going on with the officials of the ministries. Picking out trivial things, do you think I have too much leisure every day?"

After hearing Emperor Ling's words, Liu Bian didn't have any expression on his face, but he saw Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong were stunned at the same time, and felt a little strange in his heart, but then the two of them looked at each other, and Zhang Rang opened his mouth. laughed:
"Your Majesty, since the Yellow Turban Rebellion was put down, the world is peaceful now, and people everywhere live and work in peace and contentment, so there is no major issue that needs to be decided by the Holy Majesty. This is a good thing, so that the Holy Majesty can rest more and take care of the dragon's body."

"Really? The world is really peaceful now, and the common people have no worries? But why do I feel a little restless in my heart?"

"Your Majesty, maybe you've lived in the palace for a long time and are too busy to be in a hurry. Why don't you go hunting in the West Garden and relax your mind, maybe you can relieve your restlessness." Zhao Zhong also said with a smile. Although respectful in front of him, it is also more casual.

"Finally, is there anything going on inside and outside the court?" Emperor Ling nodded, without agreeing or objecting, but asked about other things.

"Returning to the Holy Lord, there is no big thing, but there are some rumors in Luoyang City. Of course, it may be nonsense and cannot be taken as true." Zhao Zhong rolled his eyes and said casually. Liu Bian immediately knew that they were going to start talking. up.

"What's the matter, listen to it, chat and laugh."

"Recently, the rumors in Luoyang City are very fierce. It is about the chariot general Huangfu and the hussar general Zhu. The minister also finds it a bit unbelievable, but it involves the two court generals. Don't talk about it. Your Majesty, don't listen to it. Let's go." Zhao Zhong actually wanted to play hard to get.

"Since what you have said may be nonsense, why can't I listen to it? It's okay." Of course Emperor Ling replied.

"It is rumored that the two generals did not win battles when they encircled and suppressed the Yellow Turban a few years ago. Instead, they lost many times. Moreover, they withheld military pay and caused turmoil among the soldiers. Later, it was only by the officers and soldiers of the local states and counties that they wiped out The Yellow Turban Thieves, but when they came back, they claimed that it was their fault. Of course, we don’t know if it’s true or not, maybe it’s groundless.”

Emperor Ling couldn't help frowning when he heard Zhao Zhong's words, but he looked around and saw Prince Liu Bian seemed to open his mouth, as if he wanted to say something but didn't say it, so he immediately asked:

"What does Bian'er want to say? Could it be that you have also heard this rumor?"

"Returning to my father, I have indeed heard this rumor. It has been spread everywhere in Luoyang City, and almost everyone knows it." Hearing Liu Bian's answer, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong both laughed secretly, thinking Liu Bian really helped a lot.

"However, my son also heard another rumor, which is about Mr. Zhang and Mr. Zhao, but it may be nonsense. I don't know if the emperor wants to hear it?"

However, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong's expressions changed when they heard Liu Bian mentioning another rumor, because they certainly knew that rumors unfavorable to them appeared in Luoyang City during this period, but they only thought that the Holy Majesty would not I knew it, but I didn't expect that Prince Liu Bian would say it in front of them, regardless of their face.
