Han Dynasty Achievements

Chapter 1: Exchange in Another World

South River University.

In the third-year male dormitory of the History Department, three talented men are having a debate.

The sturdy and tall Wang He put one hand on the upper bunk, bent down and stared at the computer screen, his eyes excited and said: "If you ask me, Wei Qing is still the best. He made a stunning debut when he first came out, and then he became stronger and stronger. If Emperor Wu of Han did not dare to let him have military merits later, no one knows how far he could have gone..."

Sitting on the chair in front of him was the very thin Zhang Bing, who shook his head and said, "I think it has to be Huo Qubing. He was the one who made a big splash. At the young age, he drew his sword and rode his horse, defeating all enemies..."

Wang He shook his head repeatedly and said, "I admit that Xiao Huo is indeed strong, but you have to look at the results, impact and the overall situation. Besides, has my Flying General ever been defeated?"

"No, no," Zhang Bing shook his head repeatedly and said, "Wei Qing is too steady. Look at our little Huo. He doesn't care about anything and just does it. If you don't obey, I will chase you for two thousand miles, no matter if you are on grasslands, Gobi, deserts or mountains, and beat you until you obey..."

Wang He blinked, then suddenly turned his head and looked at the classmate sitting on the chair next to him, and said, "Young Emperor, what do you think?"

Zhang Bing also turned his head and said, "Yes, Young Emperor, what do you think? Do you want to be Wei Qing or Huo Qubing?"

"Shaodi" is a nickname because their classmate is called Liu Bian, who has the same name and surname as the Shaodi of the late Han Dynasty.

Liu Bian was holding a tablet in his hand, reviewing the postgraduate entrance examination questions, and said motionlessly: "As long as I am here, you are all my subjects, kneel down!"

Wang He and Zhang Bing looked at Liu Bian, and then looked at each other.

Zhang Bing stood up, and Wang He clenched his fists so hard that they made a clattering sound.

Liu Bian threw away the tablet, bent down and ran.

But he was caught by Wang He in an instant, and Liu Bian shouted: "You traitors, do you want to rebel?"

Wang He grabbed Liu Bian and pushed him onto the bed. Zhang Bing followed, held him down, and started beating him.

"Young Emperor, wake up, you have been deposed!" Wang He pressed Liu Bian's hands and said viciously.

"Besides, I, Huo Qubing, was born hundreds of years before you. I am your ancestor's nephew, so I am still your ancestor. Call me ancestor!" Zhang Bing waved his fists.

Liu Bian struggled hard and shouted angrily: "Come here, protect the emperor! My imperial guards! My twelve eunuchs, kill these two traitors for me!"

Zhang Bing and Wang He sneered immediately and went straight to the bed to start "beating".

But suddenly, Liu Bian stopped moving, and the two men stopped abruptly, fearing that they had hit him too hard.

The two men cautiously leaned over and looked at Liu Bian's face.

Liu Bian turned his head slowly, looking at the two of them with sleepy eyes, and asked, "Who are you?"

Wang He had a grim expression and said, "Lao Zhang, this guy is a bastard. Don't go easy on him. Beat him to death!"

Zhang Bing snorted coldly and said, "Don't we have an excuse to skip class tomorrow? Just say we need to take him to the hospital and we have to stay by his bedside!"

The two of them rushed forward again with great momentum.

"There is an assassin, someone come, come, protect me..." Liu Bian shouted.

Zhang Bing and Wang He sneered even more and attacked even harder.

……

at the same time.

Liu Bian opened his eyes in confusion, as if he had slept for a long time. He subconsciously wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and then was stunned. The hand in front of him was too white and tender.

Then, he saw that there was a large group of people sitting, no, kneeling in front of him, wearing strange clothes, all looking at him.

The environment here is like a small hall, antique and quaint.

"Am I being beaten up so hard that I'm dreaming?" Liu Bian whispered with a strange look on his face. Before he finished speaking, a woman's weird voice came from behind him:

"Mother, Liu Xie is a bastard. He shouldn't come to this kind of occasion, right?"

Liu Bian turned around when he heard the voice and saw two white curtains not far behind him, and could vaguely see two women dressed in silver.

"Hmph, the late emperor wanted to make Prince Xie the emperor. This is well known to all court officials! This was the late emperor's last wish. Queen, you shouldn't be here." This was another voice from behind the curtain, sounding a little old.

"How ridiculous! My son is the legitimate son, the crown prince of the Eastern Palace. It is only natural that he will inherit the throne. This is the rule set by our ancestors!"

The two women were still arguing, but Liu Bian's heart was in turmoil. He immediately lowered his head and began to think anxiously.

"Those two guys beat me to the end of the Han Dynasty!? In this situation, could it be that Emperor Ling just passed away? Am I really the young emperor?"

Liu Bian was shocked, but he tried to remain calm and observed himself first.

I touched his face, which was fair and tender, with a mole on the upper right side of his forehead. He was about fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing mourning clothes, sitting facing north and kneeling in front of the hall.

Inside the hall, there were white sails and white cloth everywhere, as if there was a funeral.

The hall was full of kneeling ministers. Some bowed their heads, while others watched the two women quarreling behind them. They had different expressions on their faces, and they whispered to each other from time to time.

Liu Bian already knew who the two women at the back were. The one on the west was Empress Dowager Dong, and the one on the east was Empress He!

Is the current situation the struggle for the throne after the death of Emperor Ling?

"We are here to see the Queen Mother and the Empress."

Suddenly, a group of more than ten people walked out from the side door and bowed respectfully to Empress Dowager Dong and Empress He.

"Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, what do you think? Does the late emperor want to change Prince Xie to be the crown prince and inherit the throne?" When Empress Dowager Dong saw these people, her tone suddenly became a little higher.

Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong...the Twelve Eunuchs!

Liu Bian was startled: Yes, yes!

He did come to the end of the Han Dynasty!

Liu Bian's heart was shocked. He couldn't help but stand up and turned his head to look.

Through the west curtain, one could vaguely see Empress Dowager Dong with her hair in a high bun and a fierce expression.

Empress He, behind the curtain on the east side, had a furious look on her face.

The curtains on the west side were full of people. A thin middle-aged man smiled flatteringly and said to Empress Dowager Dong, "Your Majesty, you are right. The late emperor wanted to establish Prince Xie, and everyone in the court and the country knew about it."

Hearing this, Empress Dowager Dong said proudly, "Queen, did you hear that?"

Empress He snorted coldly and said, "Zhang Rang, I want to ask you, is my son the crown prince and the heir to the throne?!"

Zhang Rang was startled, glanced at Empress Dowager Dong's curtain, and said, "What the Empress said... is not wrong."

Empress Dowager Dong stood up suddenly and shouted, "I am the current Empress Dowager and the biological mother of the late emperor. I have the final say on who should be enthroned! Jian Shuo, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong!"

When Liu Bian heard what Empress Dowager Dong said, his heart skipped a beat instinctively.

Is this going to be changed?

He didn't know what to say for a moment and turned to look at the ministers kneeling in the hall.

The two palaces were arguing, and none of the court officials spoke. From Liu Bian's perspective, they all lowered their heads.

Looking at this situation, Liu Bian couldn't help but start to worry. He was completely confused about the current situation. He didn't know anyone and didn't know what to say.

"The villain is here."

When Liu Bian was in a panic, the twelve eunuchs including Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Guo Sheng, and Jian Shuo all responded to the order.

Liu Bian immediately frowned and clenched his fists unconsciously.

He suddenly remembered that the Twelve Eunuchs were eunuchs, and that the eunuchs and the foreign relatives led by He Jin had always been fighting each other to the death. Now, if he succeeded to the throne, his uncle, the general He Jin, would surely rise in power and increase greatly!

For the Twelve Eunuchs, this is a dead end!

Therefore, the Twelve Eunuchs were unwilling to let him succeed to the throne, and instead manipulated Liu Xie, who had been raised by Empress Dowager Dong, to succeed to the throne.

What about He Jin?

Liu Bian looked around.

With the support of the twelve eunuchs, Empress Dowager Dong was immediately full of confidence. She stood in front of the curtain with a dignified look and said, "This palace..."

Liu Bian gritted his teeth secretly, took a deep breath, and kept his eyes on the gate outside the palace.

If He Jin didn't come, he would have to give it a try.

"Wait!"

Suddenly, a loud shout was heard outside the palace gate, followed by the sound of dense footsteps.

A middle-aged man with a face full of flesh, a fierce look, and eyes as big as bells appeared at the gate. He looked coldly ahead, and no one knew who he was looking at. He strode in with a sword in his hand, and behind him were many armored soldiers and imperial guards, running straight to the front.

Empress Dowager Dong stopped talking instantly, seeming to want to say something else but stopped herself.

'coming! ’

Liu Bian stared at He Jin and slowly knelt down.

He Jin didn't look at anyone. He came to Liu Bian, took out a black robe from the person behind him, and put it directly on Liu Bian.

He Jin stepped back, knelt on the ground, and said in a solemn voice with a blank expression but a hint of ferocity: "I pay my respects to Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, long live your Majesty!"

As soon as He Jin finished speaking, the court officials who had been kneeling quietly in the hall all fell to the ground and shouted loudly.

They were all civil servants, and although some of them looked down on He Jin, who came from a butcher's family, at this time, they stood on the side of "righteousness" and supported Crown Prince Liu Bian to succeed to the throne.

When Empress Dowager Dong saw all the ministers kneeling down, she was so angry that she couldn't speak. She was filled with anger and hatred. She backed away and sat back in her chair.

Empress He was naturally overjoyed and thought to herself, he is indeed her brother, as he still protects her family in times of crisis.

On the other hand, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Jian Shuo and the other twelve eunuchs had mixed expressions of ugliness and fear on their faces, and they looked at each other, exchanging cold glances.

They were eunuchs who were dependent on the emperor and had the emperor's favor, so they could do whatever they wanted. When Emperor Ling was alive, they could even compete with the powerful general He Jin and not lose to him.

But now, the new emperor will be He Jin’s nephew, do they still have a chance to survive?

Amid the ministers' kneeling and shouting, the Twelve Eunuchs quietly retreated and went out through the side door.

Liu Bian felt relieved, but it was the first time he had seen so many people kneeling together.

In particular, it was unclear what he should do next or what the process of succession would be, so he could only let his ministers cheer and then fall silent.

After a long time, the court officials did not wait for the words "Everyone, please stand up", and some of them quietly looked up and observed Liu Bian.

At this moment, He Jin suddenly knelt straight, his face trembling, his eyes full of murderous intent, and he shouted loudly: "The throne has been established, and no villains are allowed to do anything! Your Majesty, please return to Jingfu Hall, and we will prepare for the next ceremony."

He Jin's words were not a request for instructions but an arrangement, full of unquestionable meaning.

Soon, a thin and sallow-faced eunuch came over with his head down, helped Liu Bian up, and even pulled him backwards.

Liu Bian's eyebrows jumped, he had a bad feeling in his heart, and then he remembered some things.

General He Jin planned to exterminate the eunuch party, but was killed by them. Then Dong Zhuo came to the capital, forced him to death, and replaced him with Liu Xie!

When Liu Bian thought of this, his scalp suddenly went numb. He walked back while thinking of a countermeasure anxiously.

After walking a few steps, I vaguely heard whispering behind me.

"Now that your majesty has taken the throne, you can proceed slowly."

"If we don't get rid of the Twelve Eunuchs, how can we achieve our goal? The best plan now is to get rid of these eunuchs!"

"Benchu, be careful with your words. Let's go back and talk later."

"This is not the place to talk. Later, we and Meng De will go to the general's mansion to discuss it!"

"The righteous king must eliminate all the thieves, and not a single one shall be left behind!"

"Yes, yes, let's go!"

Liu Bian listened with confusion in his heart.
