Power in the World: After Eternal Age

Empress Dowager Feng nodded calmly and said: "Taiwei, you are in a high position, but it is not easy to listen to the views of the courtiers. Shangshu Yang Baonian, Pingyang Gong Jia Airen, and Nanyang Gong Zhang Tiandu dare to speak out, and the Ministry of Households rewards a hundred gold."

Yi Hun knelt down and said: "The empress dowager is sage! I have another matter, please show me the empress dowager!"

Empress Dowager Feng said: "Master Taiwei is an important minister of the country, but if you have anything to say, feel free to say it."

Yi Hun said: "Thank you, Queen Mother! I heard that the late emperor and the emperor obeyed the Queen Mother's words and issued a decree to build the Yungang Grottoes in order to promote Buddhism. However, the grottoes cost a lot of money. I don't know how the Queen Mother wants to allocate them?"

Empress Dowager Feng sighed and said, "It was the late emperor's wish to dig the grottoes! However, during the chaos of the Three Kings, the Ministry of Households spent a lot of money to fund the military, and the construction of the grottoes has already been delayed. After a few years of recuperation, the treasury Only when it is full can we continue to do it.”

Yi Hun said: "The empress dowager, my minister is not talented, and I would like to donate a huge sum of money to repair the Buddha statues in the grottoes!"

Empress Dowager Feng was pleasantly surprised when she heard the words: "Taiwei, the construction of the grotto requires a huge amount of money. How can Aiqing accumulate such money?"

Yi Hun said: "This minister deserves to die, please forgive me! This is not the wealth of the humble minister, it is used by the officials in the court to seek high positions and bribe the humble minister. At that time, the minister wanted to refuse, but suddenly thought of the court's suppression of the rebellion. , the treasury is empty, why not accept it and offer it to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, in case we, Great Wei, need it?"

Empress Dowager Feng rejoiced and said: "The Taiwei is both wise and brave, and it is really a blessing for our great Wei! The quasi-taiwei of the palace played, this money will be allocated to the Ministry of Households to build the Yungang Grottoes! Your Majesty, do you think this method is feasible?"

Emperor Xianwen hurriedly said: "The mother's empress is sage, and her sons and officials can't match it! The Taiwei received money from the officials, but did not greedy for his own use, but for the benefit of the court. This couplet is also the blessing of the Queen Mother! The couplet must issue an edict, and the Taiwei Virtuous decree to the world!"

Yi Hun kowtowed again and again to thank the emperor and the queen mother for their kindness.He said again: "The Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, I have something to do with you! I think that those who bribe my ministers with money have a wrong heart. Since the founding of our country, the martial arts have shocked the world. Since the first emperor, we have attached great importance to civil governance and eliminated Officials can strengthen the country and enrich the people. Therefore, I beg the emperor and queen mother to severely punish those who bribe officials!"

Emperor Xianwen glanced at Yi Hun, and asked Empress Dowager Feng cautiously: "My mother, my son thinks that the performance of the Taiwei is very good, but I don't know how the mother will judge?"

Empress Dowager Feng said: "This palace also thinks so, I ask the Taiwei to investigate this matter thoroughly!"

Yi Hun thanked you, Empress Dowager Feng was in a state of anxiety because she hid Li Yi privately in her bedroom, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, Taiwei, I am tired, if there is nothing else to do, let's leave now!"

Both Emperor Xianwen and Yihun got up to give Empress Dowager Feng their peace, and when they were about to leave, Emperor Xianwen saw the curtains inside the Empress Dowager's bedroom slightly moving, and said displeasedly, "Even though it's hot, Empress Mother, she can't stand it even when she's convalescing." The wind and cold. The people in the mother's harem did not close the rear windows, and they wanted to punish them. The sons and officials wanted to be filial, so they closed the rear windows for the mother!"

Empress Dowager Feng was shocked. If Emperor Xianwen discovered the secret of her affair, she would not know how it would end.Just when she was at a loss, Yi Hun suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I have something to ask for. The emperor is in mourning, and all the officials have not seen the emperor for a long time, so I feel worried. I implore the emperor, go to the court now, to reassure the officials. !"

When Emperor Xianwen heard the words, he stopped, looked at Yihun, and then at Empress Dowager Feng.Seeing the imperceptible smile on Yi Hun's face, Empress Dowager Feng knew it already.She thought that Yi Hun must have seen the mystery in the palace, deliberately found an excuse to distract the emperor, and wanted to rescue the empress dowager.

Empress Dowager Feng immediately had a special affection for Yi Hun, and she was full of gratitude.She pretended to be calm and said: "Your Majesty, what the Taiwei played is also reasonable. The chaos of the three kings has just ended. Although the Emperor lives in the deep mourning palace, all the officials miss the Emperor and worry in their hearts. The Emperor might as well follow the Taiwei. That is to go to the court. All the officials will see the face of the emperor and know that the emperor is safe, so they will feel at ease, and then the emperor will return to the palace."

When Emperor Xianwen saw the empress, he bowed and said: "What the empress mother said is true, and the son and minister will retire, so I will go to the court with the empress."

Emperor Xianwen turned around to leave the Empress Dowager's bedroom, Yi Hun followed, and the Empress Dowager suddenly said: "Wait a minute! Taiwei, I have another confession: the emperor is too young to govern the country; I can't rest because of injuries." Pay attention to the important affairs of the court. During this period, the special orders of the palace and the major affairs of the world are all handled by the Taiwei at his own expense!"

Empress Dowager Feng already has great trust in Yi Hun in this matter, and she has first tasted the fun of stealing love, and she is passionate about adultery. All major events in the world are paid to Yi Hun.

Yi Hun was overjoyed, knowing that his listener Anyuan General Jia Xiu's plan had already won the trust of the Queen Mother, from now on, no one in the imperial court could compete with Yi Hun.

He hurriedly bowed down to thank the queen mother for her great kindness.After thanking you, I went out of the Empress Dowager's bedroom with Emperor Xianwen.

After the two left, Queen Mother Feng let out a long breath.Li Yi walked out from behind the curtain, knelt on the ground and said: "My minister Li Yi offended the Queen Mother, he deserves death, please punish her!"

Empress Dowager Feng said quietly: "Forget it, Li Yi, you should have punished the nine clans for your actions like this, but I think you have contributed medicine and saved you from death. From now on, you will often come to my palace to heal my wounds!"

Li Yi was extremely happy, he kowtowed and said: "Thank you for not killing the empress dowager! I will do my best to heal the empress dowager!"

After speaking, Li Yi raised his head and looked at Queen Mother Feng.Empress Dowager Feng knew what Li Yi meant, the two looked at each other speechlessly, and smiled knowingly.

After Yi Hun returned to the mansion, he ordered General Jia Xiu of Anyuan to be summoned, and ordered him to bring all the men and horses to kill those who had bribed him one by one according to the list, which shocked the government and the public.

In the territory of the Northern Wei Dynasty, corruption was already rampant, and the common people hated it deeply.Seeing that Yihun followed the Queen Mother's order to kill corrupt officials, everyone applauded and praised Yihun as the master of Qingtian.All of a sudden, Yi Hun's reputation was greatly shaken, and he became the pillar of the Northern Wei Dynasty in the eyes of the people of the Northern Wei Dynasty.In addition, Yihun spent a lot of money to fund the construction of the Yungang Grottoes, and more and more Buddhist believers all over the world called Yihun a 'living Bodhisattva'.

Among the courtiers, although there were many people who disagreed with Yi Hun's actions, none of them dared to speak too much, because Yi Hun was following the Queen Mother's orders after all.

Yi Hun, whose roots are getting deeper and deeper, has turned his eyes to the prime minister who is under one person and above ten thousand people.Shangshu Yang Baonian, Duke of Pingyang Jia Airen, and Duke of Nanyang Zhang Tiandu who had once publicly opposed him became thorns in his eyes. Yi Hun followed Jia Xiu's plan and decided to eradicate the three in order to frighten all officials.

If you take the opportunity to kill these three people?Jia Xiujin asked Yihun to recommend these three people to serve as supervisors of Yungang Grottoes.The three of them were overjoyed, thinking that Yi Hun had reused it regardless of personal grievances. After all, the construction of the Buddha statue in the grotto had won the attention of the Queen Mother and the Emperor, who devoted all their efforts to it, and it was a fat job in the eyes of all officials.

The three of them all bowed to Xie Yihun, but they didn't know that this 'fat man' was the shackles that the ghost soldiers put on the three of them' necks.
