In the 29th year of the Han Dynasty, the princes Chen Jin and Chen Zheng returned to the dynasty one after another. Chen Jin governed Shu for ten years. During these ten years, he built academies in Shu, built Shu roads, promoted farming, and encouraged the development of handicrafts. The imperial decrees were implemented in Shu

Very stable. In the 22nd year of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bei united with the Southern Barbarians to invade Yizhou. Chen Jin led Zhou Yu personally to lead the army southward, with Deng Ai and Xu Zhi as generals. They defeated Liu Bei and killed the sixteen cave masters.

In Yunnan, Jianning, Zangzhou and other places, they rebuilt their prefectures, wooed the barbarians, and recruited Meng Huo as a general. In the next seven years, Chen Jin spent almost all of his time building Nanzhong.

Especially in the 23rd year of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bei died of illness in Xangqi County due to a defeat in the war. His son Liu Chan was young and finally chose to surrender to Chen Jin, which caused the rebellion of the various tribes of the Southern Barbarians to gradually subside. In the next six years, although there were occasional rebellions,

As Chen Jin gradually managed and built Nanzhong, a large number of barbarians were naturalized. Not to mention completely solving the problem of Nanzhong, but at least as Chen Jin continued to develop Nanzhong and eliminated the miasma, even if the Nanzhong rebelled again, the imperial court would send troops to pacify it.

Rebellion is much easier than before.

The biggest thing Chen Jin did in the past six years was to clear the road between Nanman and Bashu.

The only thing that Chen Mo regretted was that Zhou Yu died of an illness in Jianning. This was one of Chen Mo's most promising generals. Originally, Chen Mo thought that Zhou Yu could be left to Chen Jin, just like Jia Xu, Xu Shu, and Xun You.

Chen Mo, a confidant beside Chen Jin, unfortunately did not expect that Zhou Yu would die in front of him, so he died young.

Compared with Chen Jin, Chen Zheng has lived a simpler life in the north in recent years. He has martial arts skills and has been passed down by Lu Bu. Regardless of military skills and general strategies, he always excels in military affairs.

Tired, the Central Plains has gradually regained its strength after the baptism of war and plague. In the past two years, the various ethnic groups in Xianbei have slowly begun to accept the rules set by Chen Mo, and have gradually stabilized. However, Chen Mo has never been able to manage the grassland.

I thought of an effective method.

Looking at his two sons, Chen Mo was still very satisfied.

"My father has done a lot of things in his life, but what I am most proud of is not winning many battles and restoring the unification of the Central Plains. What makes me most satisfied is that my sons have been cultivated by my father. Now Rui'er has also entered the university.

Shi, you two are now able to take charge of your own affairs, and I am very happy as a father." Chen Mo took Chen Jin and Chen Zheng's hands, sat down and smiled.

"Father, my son is able to achieve what he is today thanks to everyone's help. I don't dare to take any credit." Chen Jin bowed.

Chen Zheng nodded and said: "Yes, if there are no soldiers who die to serve, it will be difficult for a child to form an army."

"Okay, I've taught you that the ability to gather everyone's strength is the only thing you can do. Don't say these humble words. Go and see your grandmother and mother. In this family, she is the one who misses you the most. My son, she

I feel disgusted when I look at it now. By the way, bring the grandchildren with you." Chen Mo waved his hand, he didn't want father and son to live like monarchs and ministers, but sometimes, things in the world don't develop as people want.

"Here!" The two of them agreed respectfully and retired. Chen Jin lived a good life in Shu. Not only did Bu give birth to two sons and a daughter, but he also took three concubines in Shu.

He has children, and although he has not stopped doing business, his life is much more nourishing than that of Chen Zheng.

As for Chen Zheng, he also had a wife and a concubine. The principal wife was the daughter of the Yan family of a large family in Bingzhou, and the concubine was the daughter of a veteran general. Although she was not as nourishing as Chen Zheng, she was not bad, better than two daughters and one son.

In addition, Chen Rui is now married, and the Chen family has become completely prosperous in this area, and the mother's lifelong wish has been fulfilled.

Mother Chen was naturally happy to see her grandchildren and great-grandsons. For several days in a row, she opened her mouth from ear to ear and smiled happily. Chen Mo was also very happy to see his mother happy.

However, he basically doesn't care about family affairs now and spends most of his time in the government office.

"Your Majesty, this is a memorial for all officials to request Your Majesty to abdicate. I wonder..." Sima Yi handed a stack of bamboo slips to Chen Mo and asked with a smile.

Nowadays, the Chang'an court has basically existed in name only. Especially after the severe drought, Chang'an officials were purged. Although it was to kill corruption, it also cut off the wings that Liu Neng had secretly developed over the years. As the old man

The three princes and nine ministers of the generation have passed away one after another. Now, few people in the court care about the Chang'an court.

Chen Mo took the memorial, looked at it, and said with a smile: "Send these memorials to the Chang'an court and see what His Majesty thinks."

"Here!" Sima Yi understood and bowed to leave.

A few days later, the Chang'an court.

Liu Neng was very happy when he received the memorial from Luoyang. He had not seen the memorial for many years. The Chang'an court was more like a group of people in captivity playing the emperor's game every day. Liu Neng followed Liu Neng back then.

Many of the ministers who came here have died of old age. Liu Neng thought that he would also die of old age here. Unexpectedly, he would still have the opportunity to see the memorial in his lifetime. This surprised Liu Neng. Is the world peaceful?

, Chen Mo is ready to return power to him?

"What...what does this mean!?" When Liu Neng opened the memorial and looked at the memorials requesting Liu Neng to take the throne, Liu Neng's whole figure seemed to have been struck by lightning, and he looked at the hall in disbelief, bowing and standing.

Sima Yi's eyes, which had become cloudy due to drinking and sex over the years, were filled with anger.

"Your Majesty~" Sima Yi bowed slightly and said, "It's written very clearly in the memorial."

"Impossible!" Liu Neng was furious. He stood up and kicked the table. However, he failed to move the table. Instead, he was so shocked that he sat down and turned over. He got up in embarrassment and threw the table away.

All the bamboo slips and memorials on the case were overthrown, and he roared at Sima Yi with red eyes: "I am the emperor! This country is the country of the Han Dynasty! It is impossible for me to abdicate!"

"Who knows?" Sima Yi looked at Liu Neng, shook his head and sighed, pointed at Man Chao Hao and said: "Your Majesty has probably not left the palace for many years? You might as well ask these ministers."

"What are you asking? I am still alive, what qualifications do they have to decide the country of the Han Dynasty? Even if I die, I have 376 sons, and the country of the Han Dynasty cannot be cut off!" Liu Neng said angrily. He has been in the palace these years.

It's okay, just crazy about giving birth.

Sima Yi sighed, looked at Liu Neng and said: "Your Majesty, the circulation of heaven is the right principle. Although the world is a big man in name, in fact, your majesty can send people outside the palace to ask, how many people know who the emperor is today? How many people know who the emperor is today?

People don’t know King Ming?”

Um?

Liu Neng didn't understand for a while, so he looked at Sima Yi and said, "What do you mean?"

"Actually, it doesn't matter to King Ming whether His Majesty abdicates, because the people of the world recognize King Ming. Even if His Majesty does not abdicate, King Ming will still ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor. No one in the world will object, and will even congratulate King Ming on his proclaimed emperor!"

Sima Yi smiled.

"Impossible!" Liu Neng waved his hand and said, "I am the emperor!"

"Does Your Majesty know what the Son of Heaven is?" Sima Yi asked back: "Although the Son of Heaven is the king of a country, he also has the responsibility to protect the people and protect the livelihood of all people. However, Your Majesty, ask yourself, from the first year of the Han Dynasty to the present, there have been twenty-nine

Over the years, has your Majesty ever made any merits for the people of the country?"

"I..." Liu Neng was stunned. Is there any? It seems that his emperor's daily life is basically eating, sleeping and having children. Even if there are some actions, they are mostly because he wants to seize power from Chen Mo. He really doesn't seem to care much about the people's livelihood in the world.

But then he reacted: "If the imperial court does it, hasn't the world been peaceful and the country peaceful and the people safe these past few years?"

"That's because there is King Ming!" Sima Yi sighed and said: "The world is in chaos and the princes are separatist. It is King Ming who plans strategies and leads the army to wipe out the chaos of the princes. Over the years, plagues have been raging all over the world. It is King Ming who summoned the doctors and craftsmen from all over the world and mobilized the soldiers of the three armies.

Isolating the epidemic, thousands of people from all over the country worked hard day and night on how to treat the plague, so that the plague that had been raging for many years was eliminated. The severe drought in Guanzhong was due to the King of Ming who knew about it in advance and discussed relief strategies with his officials, so that there was no unrest in Guanzhong.

The barbarians on the border invaded my people, and it was King Ming who ordered to control the barbarians. Today, the barbarians dare not go south to herd horses. Our people, the Han people, walk alone on the grasslands, and no tribe dares to look down upon them. It was King Ming who worked hard to govern the world and develop farming.

, Encourage craftsmen, so that the people today are safe, well-fed and well-fed. This is all the result of King Ming. Your Majesty only sits in the Chang'an Palace and plays with the maids all day long. I dare to ask Your Majesty, what does this great rule of the world have to do with Your Majesty?"

"This..." Liu Neng looked helplessly at the old ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, hoping that someone would come out to defend himself. However... twenty years ago, there might be many people arguing for him, and ten years ago, there might be many

People swore to protect him to the death and protect the foundation of the Han royal family, but today, no one in the civil and military dynasties said a word, as if they didn't hear anything, and all Liu Neng could see was a pair of evasive glances.

Not only because people's hearts are no longer on the side of the Han Dynasty, but more importantly, Sima Yi's words are directly piercing people's hearts. Yes, maybe Chen Mo has the intention to usurp the Han Dynasty, but what Chen Mo has done in these years is definitely worthy of the title.

A wise king, but what about Liu Neng? Just because your surname is Liu, can you be the emperor no matter how stupid you are?

It is not that no one wants to help Liu Neng seize power in recent years, but Liu Neng's actions have disappointed people again and again. The older generation of ministers are almost dead, and the younger ones are watching Chen Mo step by step.

To reunite this disintegrated world, of course, the general trend is that it is now a foregone conclusion that Chen Mo will proclaim himself emperor. Those who are willing to stick to the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty have been basically eliminated. The remaining people have to consider the future of their own families.

These people were originally willing to follow Liu Neng to the Chang'an court, naturally with the ideal of restoring the Han Dynasty, but now... after being disappointed again and again, facing Sima Yi's aggressive words, they chose to remain silent and made their attitude clear.

"Your Majesty, the trend of the times is, if Your Majesty is willing to give in, King Ming can guarantee to treat Your Majesty well, but if His Majesty insists on refusing..."

"How? Can he kill me!?" Liu Neng snorted coldly.

"Of course not, but now that the central government's treasury is in short supply, I'm afraid I won't be able to support your majesty anymore..." Sima Yi said with a smile.

Now, even if the control of the Chang'an court is released, what can Liu Neng do? All rights have been transferred to the Ming Palace. Any imperial edict cannot be effective without the seal of the Ming Palace. Even if the Chang'an Palace is released

, Liu Neng still can't do anything, he can't even leave the palace according to the decree, how can he fight against Chen Mo?
