Why was the Empress Dowager able to make great achievements even though she was also in the court?

Although Empress Dowager Cixi was also in charge of the court, why could she still make great achievements?

In the first year of Yuanxing, Emperor He of the Han Dynasty died. Wang Liusheng, the eldest son of Lord Pingyuan, was ill for a long time and could not stand up, and all the princes died, counting ten before and after. Therefore, future generations are often secretly raised in the human world. Only a hundred days after Shang Zhou was born, Deng Suiying immediately proclaimed himself emperor. Deng Suizun was the Queen Mother and attended the court to handle affairs.

After Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was buried, all the imperial servants returned to the garden. Deng Sui wrote to Zhou and Feng Guiren, saying: "My nobles and I should receive the blessings of the emperor and enjoy happiness together for more than ten years. There will be no more happiness and peace." Blessings, it's just that the late emperor died early, was lonely, lost his support, was sad day and night, and couldn't help himself. Now, according to the old rules, he should return to the garden outside. His sorrow has condensed, and his laments have increased. The concubine's poem "Yan Yan", the scene of crying for a long time and flying for a long time, is unparalleled! Now I give Wang Qinggui a man-made chariot, decorated with ornaments, a chariot and a horse, thirty kilograms of gold, three thousand pieces of miscellaneous silk, and four thousand white horses. "Feng Guiren Wang Chishou gave another gift. Since he had no clothes on his head, he gave it to one person each.

At that time, we had just suffered a big loss and the laws and regulations were incomplete. A basket of Buddhist beads disappeared in the palace, and Deng Sui wanted to come. If he is tortured, he will definitely hurt innocent people. So, personally vet all palace people. Watch what you say carefully and look at what you say and the thief immediately admits his guilt.

The favorite of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was wrongly accused by a group of motorists, saying that he had done bad things with sorcery. So, I went to jail, was tortured, and testified, and it was unmistakable. But Deng Sui believed that Ji Cheng had always been by the First Emperor's side, and was always very kind to him without any harsh words. Today, it's so unkind. I called the relevant personnel to check, and it turned out to be the driver himself. No one in the palace thought Deng Suisheng was smart and wise.

Enshi: Deng Sui often found that it was difficult to collect information about ghosts and gods, and it was not good to offer too many sacrifices. So the housekeeper was ordered to find those palace officials who were disrespectful. The edict pardoned those who had done evil words and practiced sorcery since Emperor Guangwu established his military power, as well as those who were imprisoned by the Ma and Dou families and could never serve as officials. They were all exempted from becoming civilians. Minus meals, selected rice, swords, curtains, etc. It is managed by senior officials, senior officials, superiors, and insiders. Anyone who cannot reach the objects such as imperial officials, noble rice, rice, rice, etc. cannot choose if they do not offer it to the mausoleum and temple. Just eat something meaty in the morning and evening. Former old officials spent 200 million on soup all year round, but Deng Sui ordered it to stop, and daily savings decreased. Since then, tens of millions have been chopped off. All items donated by the county have been reduced by more than half. All the hawks and dogs of Shangyuan will be sold. In Shu County and Guanghan County, the gold and silver edge vessels and nine-chain knives donated by them are no longer kept. 39 kinds of paintings were stopped. In addition, the Royal Building, Fang Shang, Weaving Room of Fairy Tales, Bingwan, Jade, Gold and Silver, Pearl Jade, Rhino Elephant, King's Poison Container, Carvings, etc. have stopped playing. All the rice, grain, and firewood accumulated by the Palace Museum must be saved.

It also stipulates that nobles and royal maids are of the same family in the garden. If they are weak and old enough to use it, ask the garden supervisor to verify the declaration, go to the North Palace in person to celebrate their happiness, review and inquire, and let them decide whether to stay or go. That day, five to six hundred people were fired.

When Emperor Shang died, Deng Sui decided to make Liu Hu emperor, but he still faced the government. Since Emperor He and Emperor Shang passed away one after another, the common people were miserable. Emperor Kangling of Shang's secret collection and funeral were all omitted, which was only one-tenth of the routine.

The imperial edict of the school lieutenant was assigned to Deng Sui, Henan Yin and Nanyang.

In the summer of the second year of Yong's reign, there was a severe drought in the capital. Deng Sui went to Luoyang's official residence to check the records of unjust imprisonment. There was a prisoner who had never killed anyone, but was tortured to extract a confession. The thin prisoner was carried to see Deng Sui. He was afraid of the officials and did not dare to speak. When he was about to leave, he raised his head as if to say something. After Deng Sui learned about it, he immediately asked him about the matter and fully understood all the facts that he had been wronged. He immediately arrested Luo Yang and ordered him to go to jail to atone for his sins. Before Deng Sui returned to the palace from this trip, it started to rain in time.

In the autumn of the third year of Longshan, Deng Sui was unwell and everyone around him was very worried and scared. They prayed to the gods to deliver pious messages in hopes of taking their place. When Deng Sui heard this, he immediately condemned him and became furious. He earnestly issued the following orders, and he could only thank the gods for their blessings.

If you do not describe good governance, but always write down small disasters, this is the responsibility of Shang Tang and Tang Yao for floods and droughts, and all kinds of achievements are prosperous and auspicious. The emperor offered sacrifices to Tang pheasants, flying cauldron ears, and said something. The king suspected that he was the Duke of Zhou, but there was a thunder and lightning mutation. However, ignoring Emperor Xiude and Zhongxing, Wang Cheng changed his ways several times to punish Kang Ning. According to "The Book of Books" and "The Book of Songs", Yu Shun's concubine, Nvying, and her three daughters, Houji's mother Jiang Nuyuan, Wen Daren, and Wu Daxian were practicing in Zuode, and they could not see them off. , but could not see their brothers. I never suffered from family worries or affairs, I took every opportunity to plan and create everything in the world. My merits are as high as the Empress Dowager today. In response to the order of the historian, he wrote "Book of Records" and "Notes on Changle Palace", widely publicized and showed off, and carved her big drake on a stone, hanging it as high as the sun and moon, forever to show your majesty's loyalty and filial piety. " Andy adopted Liu Yi's suggestion.

In February of the second year of Yongning, Deng Sui's condition became more and more serious, so he took a chariot to the front hall, where he met the minister and minister, and went north to Xin. After he returned, he received a general amnesty for the whole world and rewarded the nobles, kings, lords and members of the garden group with money and cloth. The edict also said: "I have no virtue, and my mother is the king of the world. If God does not bless me, I will be worried for a long time. When Emperor Shang was in Yanping, there was no owner in the sea, the common people were in misfortune, and the country was in danger. I work hard and don't dare to play games with the country. I beg not to bully the heaven and earth, not to let down the former emperor, but I beg not to go against the will of the people. My sincerity lies in helping all sentient beings and stabilizing Liu's world. I felt that I should be completely moved by heaven and earth and receive blessings, but Emperor, Shang, and X and I died one after another
