Power in the World: After Eternal Age

What made Empress Dowager Feng fall in love with Gao Yun most was his foresight.When Empress Dowager Feng decided to establish a government school to train a large number of young talents and lay the foundation for future reforms, Gao Yun put forward her views to Empress Dowager Feng in due course.

From the Qin and Han Dynasties to the Jin Dynasty, the imperial court only required the teachers of Taixue to master one classic.Gao Yun believes that such a mechanism is not conducive to the comprehensive cultivation of talents. Whether it is an imperial school or a government school, a person who is a teacher must have a good knowledge of classics and a few classics.

In addition, as a teacher, one must also be loyal to the world. It is necessary to examine whether the father and grandfather are loyal and whether there are moral issues.You can't be a teacher if you have problems.To be a teacher, you must be over 40 years old. However, in that era, 40 years old was considered a rather old age, and the teaching assistants who assisted teachers had to be over [-] years old.At that time, if one person became a blogger, the whole family would be honored.

Gao Yun suggested that the education system that has lasted for hundreds of years must be changed.He suggested that Empress Dowager Feng should set up two doctors, four teaching assistants, and recruit 100 students in Dajun.Cijun has two doctors, four teaching assistants, and 60 students.Among Gao Yun's plans, the most modern significance is that it breaks the age setting for teachers' qualifications, so that a group of talented people can be teachers with their young strength.

Gao Yun's conditions seem rigid, but there is still flexibility. If everything is particularly good, the reputation is good, and the age is not limited.The [-] counties of the Northern Wei Dynasty cultivated and reserved a large number of talents for the Great Wei Dynasty.The employment of a group of educated young talents has laid a talent foundation for future reforms.

It took only a short time for Queen Mother Feng to determine her policy for governing the country.At this time, Liu Song of the Southern Dynasty took advantage of the fact that the regime of the Northern Wei Dynasty had just gone through the wave of rebellion against Yihun and rebellion, and invaded the country.

The frontier is in a hurry, and the generals of Yihun's former army, although they have been ordered by Queen Mother Feng not to pursue their relationship with Yihun, and desperately defend the forest to repay the kindness of Queen Mother Feng, they still cannot resist Liu Song's army. They lost soldiers and generals one after another, and lost several cities in a row.

At the critical moment, Empress Dowager Feng resisted all opinions and let Murong Baiyao, who was the number one party member of Yihun and was pardoned by the Empress Dowager, take on the important task of resisting the Southern Dynasties army.Empress Dowager Feng granted Murong Baiyao a scepter by order of the emperor to command the armies of several prefectures.

Many courtiers were worried about this, and they secretly reported to Empress Dowager Feng, saying that Murong Baiyao and Yi Hun were in collusion and participated in the rebellion, and if he was given great power, he was afraid that he would cause chaos.Empress Dowager Feng publicly said to the ministers in the court hall: "Everyone who loves you, don't doubt that Murong Baiyao and Yi Hun's friendship is a disaster. However, this palace believes that Murong Baiyao is only caused by greed. If you are loyal to my Great Wei, you must have no intention of treason. Although he made mistakes, he is talented. Seeing that the palace and the emperor did not pursue him, he must be grateful and repay it with all his might. , will receive miraculous results!"

Although all the ministers were convinced by Empress Dowager Feng, they couldn't believe the Empress Dowager's regard for Murong Baiyao.No one expected that Murong Baiyao really lived up to his mission. After leading the army to conquer four cities one after another, he even captured Shandong Licheng, which the emperors of the Northern Wei Dynasty had been unable to capture for many years.

When Murong Baiyao was in class, Empress Dowager Feng and Emperor Xianwen went out of the city to meet them in person, and promoted Murong Baiyao to be King of Jinan.So far, all the military officials in North Korea and Chinese have been convinced by Empress Dowager Feng's ability and vision.

After eradicating the powerful minister Yi Hun, the Empress Dowager Feng had only eighteen months to attend the court this time.Relying on her years of experience in the palace and her extraordinary courage, she stabilized the turbulent political situation in the Northern Wei Dynasty.

In August Wushen of the first year of Huangxing, the cry of a baby came from the Purple Palace in Pingcheng, the capital.Mrs. Li, the 14-year-old concubine of Emperor Xianwen, gave birth to a prince. Empress Dowager Feng was very happy and named the grandson Tuoba Hong herself.

Empress Dowager Feng was very happy to have her eldest grandson.She saw that Tuoba Hong was white and fat, with a face of wealth and honor, and she was in a particularly comfortable mood, thinking that this emperor's grandson Tuoba Hong must be a gift from heaven, with the appearance of a wise king.

Not long after, Empress Dowager Feng decided to stop being in court, not to listen to political affairs, and formally handed over the power to Emperor Xianwen, who had just become a father, and retired to the deep palace. macro responsibility.

Empress Dowager Feng first proclaimed the system in the court, and then handed over the imperial power to Tuo Bahong, the young Emperor Xianwen.This transfer of power was not a power struggle in the palace, but a peaceful transfer.At this time, under the rule of Empress Dowager Feng, the Northern Wei Dynasty had regained its vitality, and the rule of the court had become very stable.

Empress Dowager Feng voluntarily handed over power to Emperor Xianwen. This incident was a major turning point in Empress Dowager Feng's life.

The fate of Empress Dowager Feng has been doomed to three disasters so far, one is the disaster of her family being exterminated when she was young; The emperor has the power, which led to a conspiracy against her quietly coming.This time, the blow to her was even heavier than the previous two.This became an important turning point in her life, and Empress Dowager Feng always remembered this major mistake in the second half of her life until the end of her life.

Doesn't she know the importance of this imperial power and is willing to hand it over?Of course not, she has lived in the palace for a long time and has experienced so much, of course she knows the importance of power.

There are three reasons why Empress Dowager Feng took the initiative to hand over power to Emperor Xianwen: First, she likes children. She has never had children. At first, she was glad that she had no sons. Later, when a prince was established, she was not in danger. .She is therefore particularly fond of children.She has always treated Ta Bahong as her own child.She was established as the queen, and when she became the queen mother, maternal love grew day by day.

She enjoys the happiness of her mother, and now there is a bigger happy event coming, her son Xianwen Emperor Tuo Bahong has another son Tuoba Hong.More than a year after Tuoba Hong was born, he was established as the prince.Empress Dowager Feng liked Tuoba Hong very much and decided to raise the grandson herself, which was an important reason why she voluntarily handed over power.

The second reason is that Empress Dowager Feng believed in her son Tuo Bahong, Emperor Xianwen, because she raised Li Gui's Ta Bahong as her own son.She fully believed that her son was kind-hearted and capable, and could be a good emperor.Therefore, she willingly handed over the power.But Empress Dowager Feng was wise all her life, so she just missed this matter.She didn't know her son thoroughly, and it was Emperor Xianwen Tuo Bahong who finally caused her third catastrophe.

The third is that Empress Dowager Feng neglected power after she stabilized the country. She lacked sufficient understanding of the absolute importance of imperial power and lacked awareness of precautions.She believes in her son too much, which just reflects the past transformation. She is still willing to be a good wife and mother, and is not very enthusiastic about politics. .
