Reason for the Marriage Contract [4]
The prince's concubines, each of them were married in order to win over the ministers.
If it weren't for the marriage of the first emperor, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince probably wouldn't have set his sights on the current Ming Palace.
"Since you all understand, then you also know that there is a marriage between the first emperor, and the marriage between you and the prince cannot be dissolved at will."
"Why would the first emperor marry the Ming Palace?" Ming Yulong asked the doubts in his heart.
Prince Ming glanced at her, he felt that his daughter came over today, not just to talk to him about the marriage with the prince, he was silent for a while, and said:
"You're not too young now, and you'll be able to reach it next year (this book sets a girl fifteen years old and a lady). Since you've asked about it today, Father will tell you a few things.
Do you know what happened between the first emperor, your grandfather, and the old prince of De when the Dao Tianyuan Dynasty opened? ”
Ming Yulong put down the chopsticks in his hand, propped one hand on the side of his neck, and nodded:
"I have seen a record in the book that the first emperor and his grandfather, as well as the old prince De, were sworn brothers, and the three of them laid down today's Tianyuan country together."
Hearing Ming Yulong's words, Ming Wang Ye showed a smile, but his smile was a little cold,
"Yes, that's what you see in the books you see today.
Back then, the first emperor, your grandfather, and the old prince of De fought together. The first emperor was unparalleled in virtue and finally won the throne.
After ascending the throne, he immediately named his grandfather and the old prince of De as kings with different surnames, and his status was equal to that of the prince of the royal family.
In everyone's eyes, it is a good story of brotherhood.
In fact, at the beginning, it was exactly like what was written in the book. When Jiangshan got it, the relationship between the three people had some subtle changes. Among the three at the beginning, Emperor Xian and your grandfather had the strongest troops, the highest reputation among the people, and the old prince was a little worse. ”
Ming Yulong thought about the stinky temper of the old prince, he must have offended many people, and he scolded when he opened his mouth, and his reputation was definitely not as high as that of the first emperor and grandfather.
"There is only one emperor, and the first emperor and your grandfather have two people, once they fight, it will inevitably be a bloody scene. Your grandfather noticed this, and in order not to spoil the brotherhood, he gave up the throne to the first emperor.
In this regard, the first emperor was still grateful, so when he was titled, he directly used our family's surname.
It can also be regarded as an edict to the people of the world, and the status of the Ming Wangfu in this dynasty is extraordinary. ”
Ming Yulong knew that the following words were a turning point.
Since the first emperor and his grandfather both had the same reputation in the army and the people, although the grandfather gave up the dragon throne in exchange for the gratitude of the first emperor.
But think about it seriously, since ancient times, there have been countless people who have turned their faces for profit, not to mention that this time "profit" is the only dragon seat.
The title of "King Ming" is an honor and a warning, reminding the old Ming prince to always stay clear and know his identity.
Ming Wang Ye was immersed in the thoughts of that year, although he was still a child at that time, but living in that environment, he could still feel the danger,
"At that time, although your grandfather gave up the throne, the generals under him were not necessarily willing to take the throne of the first emperor.
So due to the situation, the first emperor promised in front of all the ministers that if the people of the Nalan family have no descendants to succeed or are mediocre in the future, the descendants of the Ming Wangfu can justifiably ascend the throne as emperors. ”
Ming Yulong's face showed a look of surprise, which can be inferred from how many people supported his grandfather at that time.
