Power in the World: After Eternal Age

Yi Hun was at the top of the court, and repeatedly tried to kill ministers who disobeyed him, but every time Emperor Xianwen excused him on the grounds that it was inappropriate to kill during the mourning period.In front of all the officials, Yi Hun had no choice but to hold back his face because the time for rebellion was not yet ripe, so he did not dare to openly do anything to Emperor Xianwen.Emperor Xianwen was in the court and met with his ministers every day. Yihun had already lost the opportunity to correct and kill the ministers.

Seeing that Emperor Xianwen repeatedly prevented Yi Hun from killing his ministers, the courtiers were already clear-eyed.They were pleasantly surprised to find that although Emperor Xianwen was young, the reason that seemed like a child's play effectively prevented Yi Hun from doing anything wrong.It seems that it was not accidental that Emperor Xianwen prevented Yihun from killing Tuobayun, Minister of the Ministry of Officials for the first time, but an ingenious layout.

The ministers began to carefully speculate on Emperor Xianwen's other actions, and gradually realized that Emperor Xianwen was indeed very comparable. Instead of being promoted to Li Yi, he appointed Jia Xiu, who was in charge of the Imperial Army, as Minister of the Ministry of Officials. Two important points of strength.

All the ministers could not help but secretly admire Emperor Xianwen. Only Zhongshuling Gao Yun, Situ Liuni, Sikong and their servants realized that although Emperor Xianwen was smart and wise, he had no experience in governing the country after all. behind the scenes.They felt excitedly that Empress Dowager Feng had finally awakened, no longer being deceived by Yi Hun, and had secretly drawn a sharp sword towards Yi Hun.

Yi Hun didn't realize that all this was planned by the Empress Dowager behind the scenes. Although he also felt that something was wrong, he still believed that it was just the little emperor Tuo Bahong's own idea.

Yi Hun felt that the little emperor Tuo Bahong was becoming more and more difficult to deal with. Although he was a rough man, he also understood the pros and cons of it.Seeing that the ministers have changed from not daring to face themselves face to face, they have become more and more daring, and even some ministers often stand up to oppose Yi Hun's administration, Yi Hun feels more and more uneasy.

The memorials he proposed to the emperor were often rejected by the emperor because of the rebuttals of other ministers, and he couldn't make an order to kill those who disobeyed him. Yi Hun felt more and more that his power was being weakened step by step. Almost all officials leaned overwhelmingly towards Emperor Xianwen.

Originally, Jia Xiu made up his own mind, but because Jia Xiu was not allowed to be a lieutenant, he and Yi Hun began to suspect each other, and Yi Hun's chariot of rebellion lacked an important military advisor.

Yi Hun was afraid, and wanted to take advantage of the fact that the power in his hands was still greater than that of the emperor, so he openly rebelled and seized the Tuoba clan.At this time, Shangshu Youpushe, Nanxiang Gong, and Annan General Murong Baiyao became Yihun's most dependent people because of his wisdom and courage.

Yi Hun hurriedly summoned Murong Baiyao to inform him of his plan to raise troops and conspire against him.Murong Baiyao was secretly surprised. Although he loved money, he was also scheming. During Emperor Taiwu and Emperor Wencheng, he kept his tail between his legs and won the favor of the two emperors. Finally, after Emperor Xianwen ascended the throne, he climbed to a high position. At this time, he began to let go and colluded with Yi Hun.However, even though Murong Baiyao is greedy for money, his approach to Yihun is just because he saw his power and wanted to profit from it. His loyalty to Wei is not false, so he cannot follow Yihun to rebel.

After hearing Yi Hun's words, Murong Baiyao let out a cold sweat.He just regards Yi Hun as a powerful minister, and like Emperor Wen Cheng, he believes that Yi Hun has no ambitions and is loyal to the Great Wei.Now hearing Yi Hun's words of rebellion, how can Murong Baiyao not be startled?

He regretted that he got into Yihun's chariot by mistake because he didn't see Yihun's ambition clearly, and because he was greedy for power and money.If he follows Yi Hun in rebellion, no matter whether he succeeds or not, he will be infamous forever.However, Murong Baiyao also knew the cruel way of dealing with the treasonous ministers in the Northern Wei Dynasty. In severe cases, the three clans were punished, and in the light cases, the whole family was wiped out. There has never been a precedent that people suspected of treason could save their lives.

The practice of the Northern Wei Dynasty made it difficult for Murong Baiyao to ride a tiger.He was neither willing to conspire with Yihun, nor did he dare to secretly seek refuge with the Queen Mother and the Emperor.In his heart, even if he was responsible for exposing Yihun's treason, the empress dowager and the emperor will still pursue him for forming a party with Yihun, and he will still die.What scares him even more is that he also understands that the power of the empress dowager and the emperor is still slightly inferior to that of Yihun. If Yihun really turns against him, the lives of the empress dowager and the emperor may be lost, and he himself will die for exposing Yihun .

Murong Baiyao pondered for a long time, and after repeated calculations in his mind, he finally made up his mind.He believes that if Yihun turns against him, no matter whether he succeeds or not, he will not end well; if he helps Yihun to gain power in a peaceful way, he will not only avoid the danger of his life, but also get rid of the danger after death. He is notorious through the ages, and he can become the most important person after Yi Hun took power because of his meritorious ideas.

Murong Baiyao said: "Prime Minister, although you are in charge of the military power in the world, it seems that you can take over the world as soon as you send troops, but the Prime Minister has forgotten a very crucial factor."

Yi Hun said suspiciously: "Lord Murong, I don't know the prime minister, please give advice to Lord Murong."

Murong Baiyao said: "It has been nearly a hundred years since the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty, and there are countless princes and kings. Although the prime minister controls the soldiers of the court, it is far better than the princes and kings, but if the princes and kings work together, the princes and kings are far better than the prime minister's soldiers. !Today, the world is ruled by the Tuoba Clan. If the Prime Minister rises up to take over the throne from another surname, all the princes and kings of the Tuoba Clan will work together to fight for the Prime Minister. At that time, I am afraid that all jade and stone will be destroyed, and the Prime Minister will not be able to live in peace!"

Yi Hun stomped his feet anxiously, and said bitterly: "Master Murong, this prime minister also knows the pros and cons. However, this prime minister was careless for a while, thinking that the little emperor Tuo Bahong was not to be feared, but he didn't expect that although Tuo Bahong was young, he seemed like a child's play Some words, but hidden needles in the cotton, made it hard for me to ride a tiger. Because of the protection of the little emperor, all the officials in the court, Chinese and military are no longer afraid of me, and they are against me more and more. If things go on like this, I will be single and weak, and I will end up being a little Killed by the emperor. How about taking advantage of the time when I am in control of the world's soldiers and horses, to enter the capital, seize the throne, and gamble for luck."

Murong Baiyao hurriedly stopped him and said, "Prime Minister must not be reckless! Can the prime minister remember the founding of the Western Jin Dynasty? In the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Cao was the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, coercing the emperor to command the princes. His son Cao Pi succeeded the prime minister, The king of Wei, later forced Emperor Han to abdicate, and finally became Emperor Gaozuwen of Cao Wei. Later, Sima Yan, the grandson of Sima Yi and the eldest son of Sima Zhao, followed the example of Cao Pi and forced Cao Huan, the emperor of Wei Yuan, to abdicate himself, and the name of the founding of the country was Jin."

"Today, the prime minister is in charge of the soldiers of the world, but he is no match for the joint efforts of all the princes and kings. However, the prime minister's power is powerful and powerful in the court. Why doesn't the prime minister follow the example of Cao Pi and Sima Yan and let Emperor Xianwen sit in the prime minister? If Emperor Xianwen takes the Zen position, all Hou Wang also has no reason to be a teacher, the heart of the world belongs to the prime minister, and the prime minister must be the founding king of a generation!"
