On the twelfth, Emperor Wu of Jin was not buried in the end. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Fortunately, the thirteenth day was also the suitable day for burial calculated by Taishi Ling, and after only one more day, Emperor Wu of Jin was successfully buried.
Many people think it's a coincidence, God bless Emperor Wu of Jin, the two suitable days for burial are so close, otherwise if you wait for a while, Emperor Wu of Jin really doesn't even have the last bit of dignity as an emperor
Old Man Wei, who had arranged everything, smiled, not ready to say anything about it.
The first emperor was buried, and the new emperor's daily life should finally be on the right track: move into the Hanzhang Hall to sleep, work in the Taiji Palace, the queen leads the harem, the queen mother avoids suspicion and widowhood, and the concubines ......
Monk.
This was proposed by Empress Dowager Hu. It is said that there are three thousand beauties in the emperor's harem, and the number of three thousand has no scientific basis, for some emperors, three thousand is too much, and for some emperors, three thousand is too underestimated. Emperor Wu of Jin is the one who is underestimated, according to the reasoning and analysis of various later generations, the number of people in his harem is at least more than 10,000.
The mediocre allusion to the sheep cart Wangxing originated from him.
The story is simply that there are too many people in the harem of Emperor Wu of Jin, and he is more distressed about who is fortunate every night. At this time in the Western Jin Dynasty, there was no flop system in the harem, and Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty might not be able to remember how many women he had. So he simply sat in the sheep cart (the sheep cart here is really a sheep cart, which is different from the kind of car that Wei Jue made when he went out) and swayed aimlessly in the harem, where the sheep cart stopped, he spoiled the concubines of the palace.
It's kind of historically weird.
Such a huge number of harem concubines not only caused trouble for Emperor Wu of Jin, but also for Emperor Hui of Jin, who succeeded to the throne. Emperor Jin Hui himself does not have many wives and concubines, but he still has to raise a harem woman, and he is a stepmother as far as the eye can see.
Cough.
I really can't afford it. Even if Emperor Jin Hui doesn't mind raising it, the people around Emperor Jin Hui are not worth it for Emperor Jin Hui, raising such a group of stepmother spies who not only don't think of him, but also always like to pass on news from the palace and Bawang subverts his throne, it is really worth the loss. Therefore, as soon as Emperor Wu of Jin died, Empress Yang was studying with Empress Dowager Hu how to get rid of these burdens reasonably.
The first to be solved were the concubines who had no children, and in the name of the emperor's kindness, let their own families take them home, except that they could not be married, and the palace would not make any requirements for them.
On the other hand, there will be no more women in the palace.
As soon as Emperor Wu of Jin was buried, Empress Dowager Hu and Queen Yang couldn't wait to send them out, and the expenses in the palace were reduced by more than half at once, and everyone was very happy to reduce the burden.
Then, there are these concubines who have children.
"They must not be put into the feudal country!" Empress Dowager Hu's position was clear and firm. On the one hand, it is out of her own selfishness, why can these former competitors live more comfortably than her? (there is still a gap between living with her own son and living with non-parents), and on the other hand, she really thinks about the current emperor, she said to the empress, "To put it mildly, these vassal kings hold a lot of power outside, how can they do without a little bit of restraint in Beijing?"
Queen Yang nodded, in fact, she was not as kind as others thought, just like between consolidating her husband's imperial power and the poor concubine who couldn't see her son, she would not hesitate to choose to sacrifice the concubines.
"It is also possible for them to pass on the news in the palace. "The Queen of the Sheep would rather sacrifice the concubines, which is also one of the reasons, they did not leave a good impression on the Queen of the Sheep.
"So, let them and I become monks, and set aside a separate area in the West Palace as a quiet place for us to become monks, and no one is allowed to disturb us at will. "Empress Dowager Hu's ordination inspiration came from the stand-in monk of Wei Yi and others before, "I said that I want to pray for the first emperor, I want to see who dares to have different opinions, and even the mourning family has taken the lead in becoming a monk." ”
After the concubines who had sons in the harem knew, naturally no one dared to disagree, but they were scolding their mothers in their hearts, cursing Empress Dowager Hu to ascend to heaven as soon as possible
The reason is obvious, Empress Dowager Hu is the queen mother, and even the queen has to give up three points of the lord, can she be treated the same as these helpless concubines after she becomes a monk? The queen mother said that she wanted to go out and relax quickly, did the emperor dare to say that he did not agree? But these concubines did not have such a big face, that is to say, they really wanted to live in the four corners of the world drawn out by the West Palace.
"Don't, I don't want it......!"
"Then be buried. "The powerful female official sent by Empress Dowager Hu to inform the news honestly said that martyrdom was reasonable and legal at this time, in fact, there has been a tradition of burial since the Qin and Han dynasties. If you don't be martyred, you will already be merciful to the new emperor.
All the restless concubines finally shut up and recognized a reality, the new emperor is no longer the fool they know. He seems to be very happy to delegate power, and only leaves it to the queen and the queen mother to decide the life and death of these concubines, but the queen mother has an enmity with them, and the queen respects the queen mother, which simply does not leave them any choice except "monk" and "burial". Sima Zhen, what a hateful heart!
Sima Zhen, who didn't know anything about this, was happily eating dim sum with Wei Jue, feeling the benefits of being the only man in the world, and he wanted to eat a few plates of dim sum!
"Your Majesty, beware of toothache. ”
...... "Well, dim sum is not something you can eat as much as you want, and there is no difference between being an emperor and being a prince, huh."
When the harem was gloomy, the previous dynasty was enthusiastically watching the death of King Chu.
The King of Chu, as the prince who holds real power in a place, the half-brother of Emperor Hui of Jin, and the royal relatives of the Eight Classics, is definitely not something that casual people can interrogate, even if it is the old man Wei, there is no drama because he is a foreign minister.
Generally, this kind of thing is handled by Zongzheng.
Zongzheng, alias Grandmaster, is not the grandmaster of a generation of grandmasters, he is just a strange special official title, he is the head of Zongzheng Mansion, and he is responsible for the spy of the royal family. This official position began in the Qin and Han dynasties and lasted for hundreds of years until it was replaced after the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Simply put, it is the patriarch of a family.
It's just that this family is more special, it is a royal family. With the emperor having the final say, the patriarch of this royal family is useless. It is held by the older generation of the royal family who are highly respected, which is more similar to providing for the elderly.
In the life of a royal family, Zong Zheng generally only has a few opportunities to appear. For example, register the pedigree when you are born, register the pedigree when you get married, register the pedigree when your child is born, register the pedigree when your child gets married, and register it when you die. In addition, what is even more special is that it is time to commit crimes.
Putting aside the special circumstances of rebellion, at other times, even if the royal family will be arrested, it will be the Zongzheng Mansion that arrests him, not the judicial body of the imperial court. If you judge your own people, you can imagine what results you can find.
This was the case with the King of Chu.
But the king of Chu did not feel much easier because of this, because ...... The king of Runan is working part-time as the Zongzheng of this generation of the Sima family. It was the uncle King Runan who tried in vain to kill his grandson and provoked political struggles.
"I have seen a man who has done death, but I have never seen anyone who has done such a thing. Wei Jue nibbled on the crisp raw courgette (cucumber) and said.
"King Runan wants to avoid suspicion. Ji Shao sat on the side and watched Wei Jue nibble on the courgette. He originally wanted to say that it would be unseemly to eat directly like this, but after taking a closer look, Wei Jue had a 150% appreciation of the appearance special effects no matter what he did, so he could only swallow his words back, because ...... No matter what Wei Jue does, it's really good-looking
Eat a courgette can eat a freehand style, rub, can not let His Majesty see!
After Emperor Jin Hui saw it, he definitely wanted to learn, but not everyone could look good when they did the same movements as Wei Jue.
"I know that the king of Runan wants to avoid suspicion," click, sure enough, the ancient pure natural and pollution-free vegetables and fruits are delicious, Wei Jue will have to rest for a while after eating a few bites, but he will still continue to eat with perseverance, "But no matter who is tried, it is the subordinate of the king of Runan, Zongzheng, and the king of Runan will not care about Zongzheng Mansion in the future, everyone will still have to mix it in his hands." It is said that it is to avoid suspicion, but in fact, the result will not be in the direction that King Runan is happy about?"
Of course Ji Shao understands this truth, he just thought that Wei Jue didn't know, but he didn't expect Wei Jue to think clearly than him: "I originally wanted to save the country and mention the prince of Chu to you, it seems that I don't need to talk too much." ”
It was the prince of Chu who told Wei Yu when Qisheng would send a message to the palace, which made the Wei family change the note.
It's a textbook pit daddy.
Although it is said that there is no prince of the king of Chu, the Wei family can also change the note, but the Wei family still has to remember the love of the prince of Chu. Ji Shao is now wearing many hats, he has an inexhaustible heart, he still follows Emperor Jin Hui, but he still helps the young Queen Yang take care of the palace affairs, he knows some of the means of the Wei family. But it was the King of Chu who took the initiative, and Ji Shao did not stop the Wei family from fighting back. However, the prince of Chu is relatively innocent......
"Don't worry, we've got it all here. ”
There has always been a magical rule in the internal fighting of the Sima family, and the crime will not harm the children and grandchildren. Well, there are special circumstances, but most of the time they don't offend their children. Looking at the history of this special period of the Western Jin Dynasty, you can find that even if the prince rebelled, his children were not killed in the war, and they could still inherit the throne. If the child is gone, the emperor will even give him a succession to the throne.
Not to mention that the king of Chu is not a rebellion, he just harmed his relatives, and it is an attempted crime, and the result will not be particularly serious.
The end result is indeed not so serious.
The king of Chu was just confined to his own palace in Beijing, reflecting on his own mistakes. As for when it will be released, it depends on the mood of King Runan.
The reason for the trial given by Zongzheng Mansion is eloquent - ordinary people will be locked up for several years or more than ten years for this kind of intentional injury (even if they are not successful), not to mention that the King of Chu is also very bad, and in the end he just locked him up in his own palace, which is already for the sake of the other party as the emperor's younger brother.
Emperor Jin Hui didn't understand these very well, he only felt that the other party's example was very reasonable, he did something wrong when he was a child, and he also had to face the wall to reflect, and Brother Wang should accept such a punishment.
Emperor Jin Hui nodded, and there was no need to fight in this matter.
In addition to this, the king of Chu also lost some others.
Like, the throne. It's not a complete loss, but it was inherited by his son King Chu in advance. The prince of Chu was young, and he was specially allowed to study with the prince in Beijing, so that he did not have to travel thousands of miles to seal the country and suffer crimes. This situation is obviously the result of the Wei family's activities for the prince of Chu.
The military power was also taken back by the imperial court. All the old ministers in the court tacitly forgot that there was such a thing as changing the military power to the appointment of the prince.
You see, the sentence is really not serious, right? At least the king of Chu is still alive, and he can still enjoy the worship that a royal family should have, but he has no military power, no throne, and no freedom.
King of Chu: ...... Nothing more?
