The Eastern Han Dynasty was in power either as eunuchs or as relatives, and the hundred officials of the scholar clan were responsible for waving the flag and shouting to see the wind and make the rudder.
Emperor Liu Zhi of the Han Dynasty was a partner with the eunuch Wuhou who killed the general of his relatives and was able to take back the power, because he relied on the eunuchs to gain power, even if the five marquis were liquidated in the future, Emperor Han Huan still appointed a group of eunuchs as helpers.
The eunuchs are the emperor's domestic slaves all their lives, they are not so cold to power, they are not greedy for power, and they can't get close to women, so they are all trying to make money, encroaching on fertile land for the disaster of the township, and there are not a few people with hundreds of millions of family wealth.
In such a comparison, the relatives who have lost their power and the hundred officials and doctors who cherish their feathers are much cuter.
Doctor Shi looked generous with the sky as his own responsibility, and went around criticizing the corruption of the government and government, and became famous for a while, "Three Gentlemen", "Eight Jun", "Eight Gu", "Eight And", "Eight Kitchens" and other names flew all over the sky, as if every BUFF bonus, I was embarrassed to say hello when I went out.
This pitted the scholars who paid attention to the reputation against the eunuch group who were busy making money.
Once the eunuchs heard that Emperor Huan of Han was about to be amnesty, and they were even more unscrupulous at the expense of accumulating money. The officials of the scholars were not accustomed to it, and after the amnesty, those who committed crimes were dealt with in accordance with the law.
This should make the eunuch unhappy, and he ran to Emperor Han Huan all day to make a small report, saying that these scholars and doctors did not take the emperor seriously, and they were amnesty and arrested, which was disrespectful.
So Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty arrested and degraded these scholars and officials who handled the case.
The scholars and doctors immediately counterattacked, and Chen Fan, the chief lieutenant of the Third Duke, and Liu Mao, the Sikong of the Three Princes, ran to the emperor to ask for the Qingjun's side, and Emperor Han Huan didn't look at these two people.
When the emperor doesn't care about this, the scholars and doctors below have no place to vent, so they can only organize every day to scold the eunuchs and find trouble with the eunuchs.
Henan Yin Li Ying even executed the son of the former eunuch Zhang Cheng in amnesty, and the eunuch party who was scolded miserably cried and shouted for justice from Emperor Han Huan on this ground, saying that these celebrities encouraged the students to conduct demonstrations, disobey the control of the imperial court, and form a party to disrupt the government.
Emperor Huan of Han, who felt that his authority was being provoked, announced to the world that he was wantonly accepted by the party members, but Chen Fan, the chief lieutenant, did not cooperate, so Emperor Huan of Han skipped the judicial process and let the eunuchs try the party members.
The eunuchs must have taken the opportunity to take revenge when handling the case, and countless celebrities were arrested and imprisoned for their crimes, and Chen Fan and Liu Mao were also implicated and were removed from their official positions as Taiwei and Sikong.
Later, the movement was too big, and his relative Dou Wu came forward to intercede, and the arrested scholars and doctors deliberately confessed that the eunuchs' children were accomplices, and the eunuchs were also afraid of the rising heat, so they persuaded Emperor Han Huan to arrive.
Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty changed the Yuan Yongkang to amnesty the world, and the arrested party members were able to get out of trouble, but they were not allowed to be officials after that, and the history is called "the first disaster of the party".
