Power in the World: After Eternal Age

After Emperor Wencheng succeeded to the throne, the contradiction between the nobles of Xianbei and the common people of the Han nationality gradually became prominent. Although Emperor Wencheng issued many edicts to stop the corrupt behavior of the nobles of Xianbei, the edicts could not be effectively implemented due to the deep corruption of the officials, and failed to alleviate the suffering of the people. , As a result, the people's struggle against the rulers intensified.

During the reign of Emperor Wencheng, the internal struggles in the Northern Wei Dynasty were fierce, and countless ministers were executed by Emperor Wencheng; on the other hand, the struggle for power and throne continued continuously.In November of the first year of Xing'an, King Jingwen of Tuge in Longxi rebelled against the imperial court. Emperor Wencheng ordered the generals guarding Wancheng Town and King Huishou of Nanyang to crusade and put down the rebellion.

In the second year of Xing'an, Sikong and King Jingzhao Du Yuanbao rebelled and were killed; Tuoba Chong, king of Jianning, and his son Tuobali, king of Jinan, were recruited by Du Yuanbao and involved in the rebellion, and both were bestowed dead by Emperor Wencheng.In July of the same year, Lu Ruowen, king of Puyang, conspired against General Zhengxi and Tuoba Ren, king of Yongchang.On July 25, Emperor Wencheng ordered Tuoba Ren to be killed in Chang'an, and Lu Ruowen was killed.There were countless other large and small rebellion incidents, and the Northern Wei Dynasty began to decline.

In the last years of peace, Emperor Wencheng adopted the suggestion of Yuanhe, the governor of Jizhou. As long as he was not guilty of treason and homicide, he could be exempted from the death penalty and relegated to the frontier to guard.

During the reign of Emperor Wencheng, he carried out a peaceful foreign policy and established peaceful diplomatic relations with Liu Song in the Southern Dynasties and other countries in the north, exchanging merchants and supporting the people.

Although Emperor Wencheng ruled the world with literature, the social conflicts in the Northern Wei Dynasty became increasingly fierce, and the government gradually became turbulent.Emperor Wencheng was worried and thought hard, and often spent time and wine in the harem to forget his worries.Over time, although Emperor Wencheng was in his prime, he gradually became dissipated and sick.

Seeing this, Empress Dowager Bao and Feng Zhaoyi were worried about the emperor, and even more worried about the instability of the Great Wei Dynasty.However, people in the harem are not allowed to interfere in the government affairs, and the Empress Dowager Bao and Feng Zhaoyi have nothing to do.

With the situation at this point, the time Feng Yuan had been waiting for for a long time was ripe.She secretly ordered Li Yi to make a puppet, write the date of the prince Tuo Bahong's birth date, prick it with needles, and bury it under the stone steps.

The Empress Dowager Bao and Feng Zhaoyi sat idle in the palace, and ordered the maid to summon Feng Yuan to come.After Feng Yuan visited the two empresses, the Empress Dowager Bao said slowly: "Mr. Feng, although you are a woman, your knowledge is not inferior to that of a man. I think Mr. Feng has been familiar with the current situation of my great Wei. I don't know what Mr. Feng has. Good strategy?"

Feng Yuan said respectfully: "Back to the empress dowager, the concubine is a noble person in the harem, how dare you talk about state affairs?"

Empress Dowager Bao sighed softly and said, "Mr. Feng Gui, I forgive you for your innocence, but if you see anything, tell me what you have seen."

Feng Yuan hesitated for a moment and said: "Thank you, Empress Dowager! Feng Yuan has made a big disrespectful statement, and I hope the two empresses will forgive me! The current emperor, the dragon body is not safe, and there are endless disturbances in the Wei Dynasty. It is the harbinger of Ziwei star descending to the earth and reviving the Great Wei. The sage said: The world is in chaos and there will be great order! Not long after the emperor's son Tuoba Hong came into the world, he fell into a strange disease. The ministers and concubines saw the Taoist priest of Qingyang in a dream, and said that the prince Tuoba Hongwei descended to the earth for Ziwei Xing, evildoers prevented him from prospering our great Wei, fortunately Taoist Master Qingyang rescued him with an elixir!"

Empress Dowager Bao was stunned, and murmured: "Mr. Feng Gui, if you don't mention this matter, I really forgot about it! The emperor is greedy for wine and sex, and the body of the dragon is already weak. Is this a sign that the emperor will succeed him? "

Feng Yuan knelt in the tunnel and said, "Empress Dowager, please forgive Feng Yuan's death sentence!"

Empress Dowager Bao sighed and said, "Feng Guiren, get up, I asked you to tell me, what is your crime?"

Feng Yuan thanked her, and the Empress Dowager Bao was waiting to be questioned, when suddenly a eunuch rushed over and reported: "I am reporting to the Empress Dowager, Su Wei Zhonglang will ask Li Yi to see the Empress Dowager for something important!"

Empress Dowager Bao said suspiciously: "People in the harem do not interfere in the government affairs. Since the emperor canonized Feng Guiren and Li Guiren, my palace and Empress Zhaoyi have no longer interfered with the affairs of the harem. What will the old Wei Zhonglang ask me for? "

The eunuch said: "Empress Dowager, General Li was ordered to supervise the construction of the palace, and unexpectedly dug out something from under the steps of the palace. This matter is too important, General Li dare not neglect, I am afraid Feng Guiren and Li Guiren will not dare I am good at making claims, so I report it directly to the Empress Dowager."

Empress Dowager Bao pondered for a while and said, "Is this really strange? Xuan Liyi!"

Not long after, Li Yi went to the Empress Dowager's Palace, and after kneeling down to worship the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager Bao asked, "You are Li Yi, General Zhonglang? What do you want to do with me?"

Li Yidao: "Report to the Empress Dowager, the young general Li Yi was ordered to supervise the construction of the palace, but unexpectedly, he dug up something behind Li Guiren's palace. Li Yi was frightened and dared not hide it, so he asked to see the Empress Dowager."

Empress Dowager Bao said strangely: "Li Yi, what did you dig out so alarmingly? Submit it to the Palace for investigation!"

Li Yi responded: "No!", then waved his hand, and a guard who was waiting outside the palace held a box in his hand, entered the palace, and knelt down to offer it to the Empress Dowager.

A court lady picked up the brocade box in the guard's hand, opened it and presented it to the Empress Dowager Bao.

Empress Dowager Bao turned pale with shock when she saw it: "A puppet? This thing has the emperor's son Tuo Bahong engraved on its body, and it is pierced with a sharp needle. Could it be that it follows the witchcraft technique of the previous dynasty?"

What Empress Dowager Bao said about the witchcraft of the previous dynasty refers to the witchcraft incident in the later years of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.Emperor Wu believed in the art of immortality when he was young, and became even more obsessed with it in his later years.During the years of Taishi and Zhenghe, he made several east tours, imitating Qin Shihuang and sending Xu Fu to the East China Sea to seek immortals in an attempt to meet immortals.But the gods are ethereal and hard to find. On the contrary, years of floods and droughts have continued, and the grain has not been harvested, which makes Emperor Wu even more depressed.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty crossed the Yellow River on a northern tour, and saw a blue and purple aura lingering in the sky. Emperor Wu felt strange, so he asked an alchemist.The alchemist said: "The cyan is entangled, there must be a strange woman here!"

Emperor Wu ordered people to search, and as promised, a woman surnamed Zhao was found in Hejian, who was extremely beautiful.The strange thing is that both hands cannot be stretched out since they were born in the womb.Emperor Wu ordered people to massage and massage, but no one could make her stretch her fingers. Puzzled, Emperor Wu did it himself.

Unexpectedly, without any effort, Zhao Nu's fingers stretched out following Emperor Wu's hand, holding a jade hook in each palm.Emperor Wu was very surprised, and immediately put her in the back of the car and took her into the harem, and set up a special place in the palace for her to live in, called the Gouyi Palace, and called Zhao Nu Mrs. Gouyi, also known as Mrs. Quan.

After more than a year, Mrs. Gouyi gave birth to a son, named Fuling, and Mrs. Gouyi was promoted to Jieyu.It is said that Mrs. Gouyi gave birth to a child after [-] months of pregnancy, and Yao's mother in ancient times also gave birth to Yao after [-] months of pregnancy. Therefore, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty called the Gouyi Palace the gate of Yao's mother.

When Fuling was born, Emperor Wu was nearly seventy, and people said that at this time Emperor Wu was unable to bear children, and Mrs. Gouyi must have mastered Huangdi's art of sexual intercourse, which can make Emperor Wu look back on his youth, and the old clam produce pearls.

Later, Emperor Wu killed the prince and made Fuling the prince, but he was afraid that the son would be young and the mother would be strong, and he would want to interfere in the government in the future, so he decided to execute Mrs. Gouyi.Emperor Wu deliberately scolded Mrs. Gouyi, and Mrs. Gouyi took off her hairpin to apologize, which made Emperor Wu angry and ordered her left and right to take her out and send her to Yeting Prison.

When Mrs. Gou Yi was about to leave, she looked back frequently, with a pitiful attitude.Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "Go, go, I'm afraid you won't survive." That night, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty issued an edict to put Mrs. Gouyi to death in prison.
