Therefore, with Luoyang's population of one million and the royal endorsement, honeycomb briquettes were already extremely scarce!

Liu Hong himself also made a lot of money.

"If we had such good things before, why would the Han Dynasty have been short of money?" Liu Hong exclaimed.

"My son, I heard you're leaving tomorrow?"

"There's a rebellion by foreign tribes in Youzhou, and the Imperial Clan Minister invited me to go there," Liu Wei said without hiding anything.

"If you are going to Youzhou, then... then if you pass through Zhuojun, remember to visit your mother and pay your respects."

"I owe your mother far too much."

Liu Hong's eyes were already moist. It was clear that he had feelings for Consort Jing, after all, she was his woman before he became emperor!

"Your subject understands!"

"If Consort Jing knew in the afterlife that she had a son like you, she would surely rest in peace," Liu Hong sighed.

Liu Wei thought to herself: She will not rest in peace until the Empress Dowager Dong, who killed her, and her accomplices are dead.

"Come here!"

Liu Hong then pulled Liu Wei aside and produced an imperial edict:

"My son, I know my days are numbered, but there is one thing I cannot let go of."

Liu Wei looked confused but didn't respond, listening quietly.

"If I die one day, you shall bring this edict from beyond the Great Wall to the capital and enthrone Xie'er as emperor!"

"When Xie'er ascends the throne, you will be the regent."

Upon hearing this, Liu Wei immediately knelt down: "Father, this...this is absolutely not allowed!"

The matters that Liu Hong had entrusted to Jian Shuo before his death have now been handed over to Liu Wei.

Liu Hong's insistence on making Liu Xie his successor is truly remarkable!

"I will handle this matter!"

Liu Hong gripped Liu Wei's shoulders tightly. "My son, you must promise me."

"The person I trust most right now is you!"

"......"
