On August 5 of this year, that is, ten days after Liu Yi had ascended the throne, Prime Minister Yang Chang died, which can be said to be scared to death.

A month later, Cai Yi, the imperial historian, was appointed as prime minister.

Cai Yi is a native of Wen County, Hanoi, born in the Ming Dynasty, and worked as an errand in the shogunate of the great general Weiqing. The family is very poor, and the entry and exit are often on foot, but there are a group of good people from Wei Qingmen, who pity him for being poor, and the public pooled money and bought a calf cart and rode with him. Later, when Cai Yi's fortune came, he was summoned by Emperor Wu to talk about the Book of Songs, which was very in line with the emperor's wishes. In the sixth year of Yuanfeng, he was promoted to Doctor Shi. As for Yang Chang, he is more than 80 years old, short in stature, without eyebrows, and looks like an old woman. If you bend your back and bend your back, your upper body will be tilted towards you when you stand up, so your heels will be unstable and you will have difficulty walking. Whenever you go in and out of the court, you must have two officials, supported by the left and right, before you can walk. When everyone saw that he was old and long, they all felt that they looked down on him, so they privately discussed behind their backs: "The general appoints the prime minister, and does not choose talents, but with such old and useless people, everything can be controlled by him." Someone heard this and rushed to report Huo Guang. Huo Guang was surprised when he heard this, so he said to the servants and his subordinates: "Because Cai Yi was once the master of the people, of course he can be the prime minister." Unexpectedly, the outside world speculated that such words could not be known to the people of the world. When the people heard this, they did not dare to say any more.

In September, Liu Ai had already granted amnesty to the world, and soon changed the original to the beginning.

The beginning means that everything starts from the beginning. This era name was given by Liu Fuling's master, the model of the world's scholars, and the great Honglu Wei Xian, who is now also Liu Fuling's master, a veritable emperor.

There is really a providence in the dark, who would have thought that twenty years later, the throne will finally return to the bloodline of Liu Ju, the prince of Wei. Although history is very cruel and confused, it is fair and just, and the cycle of heaven and reason. Therefore, Wei Xian gave the name of Benshi, and it should be his cousin who started everything from scratch, which is the wish of many people.

Then, Liu Ai began to issue an edict on meritorious deeds, and all the meritorious heroes who supported his succession were added to the ranks. The great Sima general Bolu Hou Huo Guang added 17,000 households, counting the previous 3,000 households, it has reached 20,000 households, which is a great honor, almost on the same level as Xiao He in the early Han Dynasty.

Che cavalry general Fuping Marquis Zhang Anshi, former general Long'e Marquis Han Zeng and other more than a dozen people, already have a marquis, and they are also sealed, Dasi Farmland Yannian is crowned Yangcheng Marquis, Guanglu Doctor Bingji is also sealed Guannei Marquis, and so on......

Huo Guang's merits are indeed too great, and his own Yulu has also reached the ceiling, which is beyond the seal, so his brothers, nephews, sons-in-law, and even grandsons are all wiped out, and many of them have been added to the rank of knight, some have even entered the central government, and some have commanded the defense of the capital, monopolizing more than half of the military and political power.

At this point, Huo Guang ushered in the peak of power and glory in his life. However, not long ago, Yan Yannian's incident made him very unhappy, and he originally wanted to take advantage of this matter to retreat into advance, and on the grounds of his old age, he expressed to Liu Ai at a court meeting that he was willing to return the supreme decision-making power and let him be in power.

This exploded, and this happened suddenly, and even some of Huo Guang's cronies were kept in the dark, so the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were at a loss. There was an immediate letter of suggestion against Huo Guang, and he simply accepted the request, and the emperor was not small, so he immediately took charge of the government and saw what he could do with Lao Huo. Of course, there are more pro-Huo factions, who exaggerate Huo Guang's merits everywhere and strongly advocate to keep Huo Guang. If this matter were left to Liu He, it is estimated that he would be happy to accept the request, but Liu Yi is indeed extremely smart. Now he wants power or not, he wants soldiers without soldiers, he wants experience without experience, even if Huo Guang hands over his central leadership, he can't control it. Liu Yao, who knew it, had done something that surprised everyone. 652 Literature Network

Liu Ying had issued an edict, openly entrusting all decision-making powers to Huo Guang, and giving him the two powers to dispose of officials below 2,000 stone without prior request, and the recruitment of subordinates in the Inner Dynasty without having to evaluate and report, and stating that everything could be sent to him after being approved by General Sima.

This decentralization is indeed too big, so big that even Huo Guang doesn't dare to accept it, as long as the recruitment of subordinates in the Inner Dynasty does not have to be assessed, but Liu Yi does have great talents, and he sees it very far, he insists on Huo Guang to accept it, some people say that he is afraid of Liu He's past experience, but some people say that he is sincerely grateful to Huo Guang......

Regardless of the motive, anyway, Liu Ai's relationship with Huo Guang has gradually become more and more harmonious, it is estimated that Gongsun Yu told him about Emperor Wen's treatment of Zhou Bo, anyway, every time he goes to the court in the future, Liu Ai will stand up to greet Huo Guang, and will give him a seat from time to time.

Of course, Huo Guang is also a smart and cautious person, he is also called "Your Majesty", all the etiquette is not left behind, and the large and small Zhou Zhangs are usually sent to Liu Ai immediately after being reviewed, of course, so that he can learn how to work so that he can be in charge in the future.

Speaking of the Huo family, Huo Guang has a total of seven daughters and one son. The eldest daughter was born to his wife, Donglu, married Shangguan An, and gave birth to a daughter who is the current Empress Dowager Shangguan, but unfortunately passed away early.

After the death of the Donglu family, Huo Guang accepted the name of the servant girl again, and the servant girl was born poor and did not even have a surname, so she also followed Huo Guang's surname Huo. She is the notorious Huo Xian. Huo Xianren is beautiful, looks like a watery poplar, is very scheming, specializes in seducing men, seduces Huo Guang so much that he is fascinated, spoils her alone, and has a son and six daughters in a row.

The sub-name is Huo Yu, and now he is a Zhonglang general, who is very arrogant and has a bad record.

The second daughter, that is, Huo Xian's eldest daughter, married Deng Guanghan, the captain of Weiyang. The third daughter, married to Zhao Ping, a married knight and a doctor of Guanglu. The fourth daughter, married to Pham Minh You, the captain of Changle Guard. The fifth daughter, married to the middle Lang general, Yulin supervisor Ren Sheng. The sixth daughter, Huo Shujun, only married Jin Xian, the son of Jin Riyan, last year.

Just looking at Huo Guang's son and son-in-law, you know that the forces in the imperial court, intertwined and impregnable, are all key positions, and they are indeed powerful. Liu He was the most stunned, he wanted to collide with him without seeing anything clearly, it would be strange if he didn't hit his head and break the bloodstream, and now he still has a small life.

Therefore, Liu Yi had just succeeded to the throne not long ago, and when he saw Huo Guang standing behind him, the feeling of depression could be imagined.

As mentioned above, Huo Guang's six daughters have all married well just now, but now there is still the youngest daughter, Huo Chengjun, the seventh fairy, who is still not married.
