Power in the World: After Eternal Age

Chapter 29 Internal and External Communications

Tuoba Yu snatched the bronze wine bottle from Feng Yuan's hand, and threw it to the ground in resentment.Two eunuchs and maids rushed in, Feng Yuan winked and said: "It's okay, the emperor accidentally dropped the cup after drinking too much, you guys go out first!"

The maids and eunuchs hurriedly retreated, Feng Yuan picked up the bronze wine bottle from the ground, wiped it clean, refilled it, put it back on the table in front of Tuoba Yu, and said in a low voice: "The emperor calms down, my lady Feng Yuan has something to say. To enter the emperor!"

Tuoba Yu gently held Feng Yuan's face in his hands, his bloodshot eyes revealed love and desire.He sighed softly: "I am in vain the king of a country, but I can't even get close to the woman I love!"

Feng Yuan said softly: "Your Majesty, my concubines know that your Majesty is not a mediocre person, but a wise man with great ambitions. The reason why your Majesty indulges in the palace's debauchery is not the Emperor's intention. The concubines understand in their hearts that this is the Emperor's intention. To make the emperor's enemies despise the emperor. When the time is ripe, the emperor will show his power and punish the ministers by surprise."

Feng Yuan knew that after Tuoba Yu's excitement of winning the throne for the first time, he began to feel distressed that the government was controlled by an eunuch, and the boss was unhappy because the power was falling apart, and he had no emperor's name but no imperial power, so he praised Tuoba with words Yu, to stimulate their pride and fighting spirit.

Sure enough, Tuoba Yu couldn't help but feel greatly benefited when he heard Feng Yuan say that she was looking for flowers for fun just to confuse her opponent.Although he is not like what Feng Yuan said, looking for flowers and having fun is just a strategy of retreating to advance, but the saying goes well: a thousand piercing swords piercing, flattering can't piercing!What's more, these words come from the mouth of the beauty in front of him, how can he not be used?All of a sudden, he suddenly felt that he was full of pride, and it seemed that after he got rid of Zong'ai, he managed the Great Wei to make the people rich and the country strong.

Seeing the excited look in Tuoba Yu's eyes, Feng Yuan knew that her words had worked.She turned her slender, white neck and kissed Tuoba Yu'e gently on the head. Looking at Tuoba Yu, she said winkingly, "Your Majesty, my concubine Feng Yuan hopes that your Majesty will clear up the courtiers and revive the court. At that time, the ministers and concubines will be the servants of the palace!"

Tuoba Yu was overjoyed and embraced Feng Yuan in his arms.Feng Yuan struggled softly and said: "Your Majesty, Jia Zhou is coming soon, and the concubine must leave. The concubine has something to tell the emperor, although the concubine is in the harem, I know that there are many loyal ministers in the court. Concubine I recommend to the emperor Yuan He, the Minister of the Palace, and Lu Li, the Minister of the South, that they will be used by the Emperor!"

Tuoba Yu was stunned and asked: "How about these two people? When I was the king of Nan'an, these two ministers were facing the late prince, how could they be used by me?"

Feng Yuan said: "Your Majesty, the two ministers who protected His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at the beginning were just a manifestation of their loyalty to the emperor. The Crown Prince is the crown prince of the country, and protecting the Crown Prince is the monarch of the state. Unfortunately, the Crown Prince died young. In the heart of He Yuan, they are loyal ministers of the Great Wei, and they are not the crown prince but the Great Wei. Now that the Emperor is the Lord of the Great Wei, how can these two have any reason to be disloyal to the Emperor?"

Tuoba Yu was stunned for a while, then hesitantly said: "Feng Yuan, if it's as you said, how should I use these two people?"

Feng Yuan smiled lightly and said: "Your Majesty, the Minister of the Palace, Yuan He Dian, who is stationed in the guards of the Imperial Forest Army, is in charge of the safety of the imperial palace. If Yuan He helps you, your Majesty will not be afraid of raising eunuchs in the palace?"

"Lu Li, the Southern Shangshu, is proficient in astronomy. Although he is doing idle work in the imperial forest, his father Lu Qi is a fierce general under Emperor Taiwu. He has successfully persuaded the two uncles who rebelled against the Huns to kill Gai Wu and return him. He has a high prestige in the army, and most of his former troops are generals in the military power of our Great Wei."

"Lu Li secretly contacted the vassals of the towns for foreign aid. Yuan He led the guards from the inside to escort the guards, and attacked from inside and outside. There is a place for Zong'ai to stand? If this is the case, the world's major events will be settled. Why do you worry about the emperor?"

Tuoba Yu was overjoyed, and when he was about to speak again, a eunuch came in in a panic and said: "Your Majesty, Eunuch Jia has arrived at the court gate!"

Feng Yuan broke free from Tuoba Yu's embrace and left quickly.Tuoba Yu, who was still beautiful in his arms just now, felt lost, and after standing blankly for a while, he grabbed the flagon on the table and took a big gulp.As soon as the wine was drunk, his chest felt hot, and he seemed to be bursting with pride. He dropped the wine bottle and secretly swore to the sky to kill Zongai.

Tuoba Yu thought to himself, he spends his days in the harem and doesn't care about court affairs, if he suddenly summons Yuan He and Lu Li, Zong Ai will be suspicious, I'm afraid Zong Ai has already jumped the wall in a hurry, but he will cause trouble for himself Murder.

Tuoba Yu pondered for a long time, and suddenly came up with a plan.A few days later, it was time for the Spring Festival of the Northern Wei royal family, and Tuoba Yu decided to use the opportunity of the Spring Festival to secretly contact Shangshu Yuanhe in the palace and Lu Li in the south.The Spring and Winter Sacrifice is the two major sacrificial ceremonies of the Northern Wei royal family. According to the ancestral system of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the emperor personally led the harem concubines and ministers to sacrifice in the Taimiao in the suburbs of Beijing.

On the day of the great sacrifice, the mighty imperial convoy left the court gate and led all the civil and military officials to the Taimiao in the eastern suburbs.After the sacrifice, according to the usual practice, the emperor had to stay for three days to lead the officials to hunt.

While Zong Ai led the men to hunt, Tuoba Yu pretended to be ill, and secretly summoned Yuan He, Minister of the Palace, and Lu Li, Minister of the South, in the palace.The two only knew that Tuoba Yu was addicted to wine and wine, and when they were hunting for sacrifices, they suddenly summoned themselves, which was a big surprise, and they didn't know what Tuoba Yu's intention was.

Jia Yuan and Lu Li entered Tuoba Yu's palace, bowed to the queen, Tuoba Yu deliberately said in a low voice: "You two lovers, I heard that you are trying to protect the former prince. When the first emperor passed away, the courtiers discussed In the matter of establishing a monarch, if you object to my succession, is there such a thing?"

Yuan He, the minister in the palace, was stunned suddenly, knelt on the ground and trembled, not knowing what Tuoba Yu meant when he suddenly said this, and vaguely felt that a catastrophe was imminent.

Lu Li, the Southern Shangshu, has a lot of resourcefulness. Seeing that Tuoba Yu doesn't care about government affairs and indulges in sex, he already believes that Tuoba Yu is a fatuous king.Since Tuoba Yu brought up the old matter, it must be that Tuoba Yu held a grudge against this matter in order to settle the old matter.

Lu Li pondered, since the emperor wanted to kill, she was afraid that there would be no luck. Instead of admitting his mistakes and begging for mercy, the emperor might not be able to forgive her. It is better to go all out and show her loyalty to Wei. Even if she is killed, she can still win in the future. The name of Qing History praise.

Lu Lilang said: "Back to the emperor, the ministers are indeed opposed to the emperor taking over the throne. Emperor Taiwu passed away. Although the crown prince died, the crown prince's son Tuoba Jun, King Gaoyang, is still there. This is the grandson of the former emperor. Kuang Taiwu Emperor has ten princes, Jin Wang Tuoba Fuluo, Dongping Wang Tuoba Han, Linhuai Xuan Wang Tuoba Tan, Guangyang Jian Wang Tuoba Jian, the four princes are all the brothers of the emperor, An Youfei The principle of long standing and young?"

"I tried my best to prevent the emperor from ascending the throne, but the empress dowager issued a decree, and then the emperor succeeded to the throne. The ministers have nothing to say. The minister Lu Li committed a capital crime today, and the emperor will kill the three clans. However, the heart of the minister, only Heaven can learn from you, what I did was not against the emperor, but for the sake of Wei's loyalty!"
