Why did Dong Zhuo want to make the clever King Chen Liu emperor, and wouldn't the cowardly Young Emperor be better controlled?

Reading the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Dong Zhuo first met the Young Emperor and King Chen Liu, and was shocked by a few words from King Chen Liu, rolled his saddle and fell to his knees. Luo Guanzhong wrote: Dong Zhuo could not help but "secretly wonder, and has the intention of abolishing the establishment.".

Later, Dong Zhuo twice invited his ministers and proposed to depose the Young Emperor and establish Chen Liu as the King, which was opposed by Ding Yuan, Yuan Shao and other ministers. After Lü Bu was rebelled, Ding Yuan was killed, Yuan Shao fled, the group of ministers were silent, Dong Zhuo successfully replaced the Young Emperor, and established Chen Liu as emperor, that is, emperor Xian.

Reading this, not only did he wonder, but did Dong Zhuo really want to emulate Huo Guang, the Duke of Zhou, and assist Ming Jun in coming to power, and vow to protect the Han Dynasty? Of course not, Dong Zhuo later died on the way to "Zen Rang" of Emperor Xian! So is Dong Zhuo lacking in heart and eye? Since Emperor Xian was so clever, why did he have to do his own sins and not live? Is it that Luo Guanzhong wrote it wrong, or is there another way in the inner middle?

To understand this problem, we first need to find out whether the Young Emperor is really as Dong Zhuo said: The Son of Heaven is the Lord of all the people, and he cannot serve the Zongmiao Temple without authority. Now that he is cowardly, he can take the throne if King Chen Liu is clever and studious.

Luo Guanzhong rarely mentions the Shao Emperor's ruling measures in the book. Of course, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial family weakened, and real power was swallowed up by eunuchs. First the Ten Permanent Attendants took power, then the great general He Jin controlled the government, and Dong Zhuo did not have much to say, basically living in panic and fear. It can be said that the government decree can no longer get out of Luoyang City.

On the issue of abolition, the courtiers were unanimously opposed. In feudal thought, the idea of loyalty to the king is deeply rooted, and unless the emperor is seriously immoral, the abolition of the emperor is a great rebellion and wants to destroy the Nine Tribes! Not to mention here, the Qunchen was afraid of losing their heads, at least from everyone's opinion, the Young Emperor at least did not make the Qunchen resentful and hateful.

Moreover, from the mouth of the group of ministers, we still know some of the performance of the Young Emperor. For example, Ding Yuan said: The Son of Heaven is the concubine of the first emperor, and there is no fault in the beginning, so why should he arbitrarily discuss the abolition of the establishment? Lu Zhi said: Although Imami is young, he is wise and benevolent, and there is no good fault. Yuan Shao said: There is not much to the throne now, and there is no loss of morality. As such, we can know that although the young emperor was young, he was not at fault, and he was even very intelligent. It is not the "image of the Young Emperor" in Dong Zhuo's mouth.

Since, the Young Emperor was not like this. Then there is only one possibility, that is, the young emperor has been "blacked" and cowardly and incompetent.

Why did Dong Zhuo "black" the Young Emperor? Then we must find out how Dong Zhuo ascended to the heavens one step at a time.

At that time, after the big pig head He Jin came to power, Yuan Shao advocated killing the eunuchs who were chaotic. As a result, these eunuchs who did not have children were not only well-informed, but also all of them were human spirits, and when they went to Empress He to cry and complain, they actually only killed one Qian Shuo. In order to force Empress He to agree to kill the eunuch, He entered the regime to stabilize the situation. Yuan Shao, who was very talented, also suggested that the local princes be ordered to enter the side of the Qing Emperor in Beijing.

Since ancient times, it has been taboo to lead foreign troops into Beijing, and Yuan Shao's bad idea, he da pig head, thought it was very good, and even did not listen to Chen Lin's repeated reminders. Strangely, after The Third Gongming Gate of Yuan Shao IV, the aura is too grand, making it easy for people to listen to biased beliefs. As a decision-maker, you must listen to the situation at the same time, you must not make up your mind when you are impulsive, you must not make a promise when you are happy, although the wine table is good, although the beauty is beautiful, the impulse will be punished, once you can't be autonomous, you are not far from defeat.

He Jin then attracted the northwest wolf Dong Zhuo.

And He Jin and Empress He's wife's benevolence did not cut the grass and remove the roots in time, and several eunuchs actually chopped He Jin into powder. The Young Emperor and King Chen Liu were killed in the countryside, but fortunately they were rescued, and on the way back to Luoyang, they encountered Dong Zhuo, the leader of the great warlords.

At this time, the generals of the Ying Emperor were only a few dozen, and Dong Zhuo had 200,000 heavy troops. What else can the emperor do but tremble and be at the mercy of others? As a result, Dong Zhuo relied on military strength to become the de facto master of the Han Court.

However, the courtiers did not obey, the people did not obey, and the royal family did not obey!

Although Dong Zhuo relied on military strength to subdue everyone, he knew very well that his position was not secure, there would be a whirlpool under the still stream, and if he wanted to control the government, he must let the courtiers completely give up the idea of resistance from the bottom of their hearts.

For example, when new officials take office, some of them are recognized by the Ministry of Non-Governmental Organizations, and some of them are eyeballs dropped by the Ministry of Non-Governmental Organizations, and in order to make the people below obediently obey, they must burn a few fires, such as degrading the people who were admired by the previous leaders, using those who were suppressed, and holding on to the small mistakes of a bunch of old people, in short, up and down their hands, the wind and clouds suddenly changed, until the city head changed the banner of the phantom king.

In doing so, Dong Zhuo was nothing more than a new official taking office and burning a fire. Its fundamental intention is still to stabilize the personal situation.

The so-called King Chen Liu is more intelligent and more suitable for inheriting the unification, all of which is nonsense.

But among them, the most hurt and the most sympathetic is indeed the Young Emperor! And this young emperor is also the most worthy object of study for us in the official workplace. The Young Emperor, first and foremost an outcast, was useless and marginal. The second is to be hacked, innocent to be thrown into feces. In other words, is the Young Emperor really insoluble?

In the official workplace, we are deeply affected by the scourge of a dynasty and a courtier, and we always complain that the world is unpredictable and plagued by bad luck. Some were originally the top pillars of the unit, but they did not want to change the leadership, but actually became marginal people. Some were originally intended to be promoted, but they turned out to be the ones who accompanied the last seat. Some were originally the pen holders of the unit, and the result became the wrong way to write shit. And so on, and so on.

In fact, don't blame the leader, this is a normal phenomenon. What is wrong is that we ourselves. In the official workplace, the biggest magic weapon is not talent, but "change and adaptation". If, even the survival of the fittest, improvisation, do not hit the wall is strange.

If the young emperor of that year knew how to adapt to the situation, and even put down his body and condescended to the nobility, he could at least escape the fate of being poisoned.
