Chapter 254 Chapter 253 Young Lord Liu Jien

Liu Jien's real surname is Xue, and his mother is the daughter of Liu Chong. After his parents died, he was adopted by Liu Jun as his adopted son.In July of the twelfth year of Tianhui in the Northern Han Dynasty (AD 968), Liu Jun died of illness, and Ji En was established as emperor.At this time, the situation of the Northern Han Dynasty was even weaker, and the state affairs were all controlled by Guo Wuwei.Guo Wuwei was originally a wandering Taoist priest who claimed to be able to predict good and bad times, and to ask for wind and rain, which won Liu Jun's trust.After Ji'en came to the throne, he appointed Guo Wuwei as an official to defend Sikong, but secretly planned to get rid of him.

On September 10th, Ji En did not plan to kill Guo Wuwei while the officials were having a banquet in the palace, but Guo Wuwei was not present, so the plan fell through.After the banquet was over, Jien returned to his living room. Just as he was lying down, the priest Hou Barong colluded with Guo Wuwei and led more than 10 people to enter with knives and buckle the door.Ji En hurriedly got up and hid behind the screen, but was still killed by Hou Barong.Before Hou Barong could go out in the future, Guo Wuwei had sent someone in through the window to kill Hou Barong and his party.It took more than 60 days from Jien's succession to his death.It is not yet possible to change the number to the Yuan.
