"This servant obeys Your Majesty's decree!"

......

After Qingming comes Jingzhe!

A series of thunderous booms echoed across the sky above Luoyang!

Mid-April of the fourth year of Zhongping.

The Great Han Empire, Luoyang Imperial City, in front of Zhengyang Gate.

A huge crowd of people knelt down, their faces dark and heavy.

Crown Prince Liu Bian, Prince of Hongnong, Liu Xie, Prince of Chenliu, Empress He, Empress Dowager Dong, General He Jin, Grand Tutor Liu Yu, and hundreds of Han Dynasty officials and imperial relatives were all present.

It turns out that Liu Hong, who had been on the verge of death, suddenly became more ill in the past few days. He not only couldn't eat anything, but also vomited a large amount of black blood.

After examining the patient, the imperial physician shook his head and apologized.

Liu Hong suddenly felt that his time was running out and that his days were numbered.

Therefore, he issued an edict summoning his two sons in the capital and a group of ministers to his bedchamber to accompany him on his final journey.

Their faces were solemn and sorrowful, as if they were waiting for a certain moment to arrive.

Squeak!

The palace gates opened, and two eunuchs, Wang Chengen and Jian Shuo, who were beside Liu Hong, walked out with their heads bowed.

Everyone's heart stopped beating instantly, the air in the square froze, and everyone stared intently at Wang Chengen and Jian Shuo.

"His Majesty...His Majesty has passed away!"

As Wang Chengen's sorrowful voice rang out, a chorus of wails erupted in the square, growing louder and louder until it reached the heavens.

Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, lingered on for a year due to his illness before finally passing away at the age of 33.

In an instant, dark clouds gathered over Luoyang, and a fierce wind howled!

The Han Empire was thrown into turmoil by the premature death of Emperor Liu Hong!

A violent storm is coming!
