The news that the An family has one more room through the house, and there is a whirlwind blowing in Shengjing, and Yushitai is a little impatient, but the family is from a humble background, and the room is nameless and undivided.

Besides, the second master of the An family seems to be extremely self-disciplined in this kind of thing, and in addition to serving in the courtyard on weekdays, Xinna's Tongfang does not sleep together every day, and the adults who want to marry their daughters to the An family are unconsciously relieved.

Jiang Guogong said to the eldest grandson Yuanhong, "Your Majesty, in the past two years, my country has been in good weather, and foreign countries have come to congratulate him, which is auspicious from heaven, and it is the recognition of His Majesty by God, and it is the blessing of our courtiers. ”

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Jiang Guogong raised his head, and the people of any faction behind him were like bone cards, bowing on the cold marble floor one after another, singing the praises of the great cause of this emperor in his thirties.

Today's imperial court is no longer the original decision of the Jiang family and the Fu family, the emperor has already been in charge of life and death, and even the most unlikely military power of the two families has been carved out, such an ability is still somewhat praiseworthy.

The eldest grandson Yuanhong raised his eyebrows casually, he didn't think that Jiang Guogong, an old fox, would praise him like this after he collected the military power.

With his hands behind his head and a slightly lazy expression, the man on the dragon chair refused to speak, and the people present began to drum in their hearts.

"All the adults are strict, Yu Guo can have today's glory, and it can't be regarded as the credit of me alone, but it also depends on the concerted efforts of all the adults, all of you adults are even!"

"Emperor Xie!"

The moment they stood up, many people were sad in their hearts, and the competition between these two people did not know how many people's hearts would be unbearable.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a book!" Jiang Guogong jumped out again, "The world is now settled, it is really the blessing of the emperor, ** comfort is really the right measure of the two queens, take advantage of this opportunity, the ministers and others respectfully ask the emperor to set up a prince as soon as possible, in order to stabilize the country." ”

The inheritance system in ancient Chinese society was the primogeniture system, and women had no inheritance rights. The basic principle of confirming the heir is: "establish the heir and establish the elder", which means that the order of inheritance is the priority of the son-in-law and the elder. The eldest of the sons (sons born to the wife) is the first heir. If there is no son-in-law, the eldest of the concubines is the heir. Another situation is that if the son-in-law dies early, his son will be appointed as the heir, such as Zhu Yuanzhang after the death of the crown prince Zhu Biao, and his son Zhu Yunwen will be the emperor's grandson.

In addition to the principle of "establishing a successor and establishing a long-term son", there is: "establishing a son to be virtuous", that is, depending on the virtue of your concubines, the most important thing is that the emperor "establishes the prince with love" is the emperor's favorite son, and he will set up that son, which is easy to have a power struggle in this way.

Historically, the relationship between the prince and the emperor was extremely complex and contradictory. On the one hand, the emperor needs to have an heir, but the existence of an heir will pose a certain threat to the imperial power. Because the crown prince had great power, he often clashed with the emperor, which led to the deposition or murder.

Due to all the above reasons, it is rare for the crown prince to be ordained and succeeded to the throne by Shun lì. As the power of the emperor continued to strengthen, the power of the crown prince was increasingly weakened. But conversely, it was precisely because the power of the crown prince no longer posed a threat to the emperor that the emperor had enough power to restrain his other sons, so the later crown princes succeeded to the throne more often.

The relationship between the crown prince and the emperor was special and sensitive, and the ministers had to be careful when handling relevant matters, because they did not dare to disobey the emperor's orders and did not want to offend the prince.

The eldest grandson Yuanhong, who is in his thirties, is in the prime of a man's life, and his princes are still relatively young and have no qualifications to touch power, but for the ministers, they are already about to start dividing the princes into different factions.

"I don't know which prince Jiang Guogong recommends?" Changsun Yuanhong smiled, and after a while, he pursed his lips, most of the people who knew him could guess that Changsun Yuanhong was about to touch the bottom line.

Prince? The eldest grandson Yuanhong does have this plan, he is no longer a young man in his twenties, some of his sons are still in infancy, but some have already entered the study, studying with the princes, the years are urging people to grow old, and the establishment of the prince is gradually imminent, but the candidate for the prince is a piece of the eldest grandson Yuanhong's heart.

"I don't know if Jiang Guogong has any suitable candidates?" The eldest grandson, Yuanhong, really didn't mind expressing his attitude, although the Nine Emperors were his son, but for this, he could be regarded as benevolent and righteous.

The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, more than a dozen children in the royal family, and they are burdened with such a big fate, they really want a bowl of water to be flat, that possibility is not existing, the child who is not very good at calling people, the eldest grandson Yuanhong does not have too much reluctance and guilt.

"The emperor, since ancient times, is a long-term heir, the queen has no children, but the queen mother gave birth to two sons and a daughter for the emperor, and has a life-saving grace for His Majesty, and the people of the world have gained, therefore, the ministers played the four princes as the prince."

Jiang Guogong's words were sonorous and powerful, and many people present felt that Jiang Guogong was crazy, and he actually wanted to give up the position of crown prince to the An family, so could it be regarded as the Jiang family surrendering to the An family?

An Ruozhi smiled coldly, he, the old fox, was definitely not mixed up, Jiang Guogong had already dug this huge pit, and he didn't necessarily have to jump, he would let the other party know today what it meant to steal chickens and rice.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks this matter is inappropriate!"

The eldest grandson Yuanhong is thinking about establishing Ning Er as the crown prince, it is not impossible, among so many of his sons, the first few are too mediocre, I am afraid that it will be difficult to take on important responsibilities, and a few small ones are too young to see at all, coupled with Angel's position in the back, the position of the prince is to be given to Ning Er.

It's just that when he looked up at the person who refuted, he couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, he really didn't understand that the person who opposed it was Angel's father.

"What does the emperor think?"

An Ruozhi has become more and more valued by the eldest grandson Yuanhong over the years, and with his ability, he has won the respect of many literati and scholars, as well as young talents, and the eldest grandson Yuanhong has named him the emperor of the dynasty.

An Ruozhi said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Your Majesty, although the four princes are the sons of the side queens and one of the wiser among the princes, the four princes are still a child, and it is really not suitable to be the crown prince." ”

What do you mean by that? The emperor also said the advantages of Ning'er, but he categorically can't deny Ning'er's ability just because Ning'er is just a child. ”

An Ruozhi's reason for rebuttal, the eldest grandson Yuanhong thinks it is a bit far-fetched, Ning'er should not be the prince, for today's eldest grandson Yuanhong, there is not much difference, and he is also willing to use an empty position to buy a loyalty of the An family.

"Back to the emperor, the four princes are young, the biological mother is still there, in the long run, it will cause the main weak and the mother strong, and it is a disadvantage in the world, Weichen implores the emperor, if you want to set up the four princes as the prince, you must go to the mother and keep the son."

These words made many people present tremble, but behind them was An Ruozhi's own daughter, or the daughter of the original wife, if Nalan saw today's situation, would he be so angry that he jumped out of the coffin.

The eldest grandson Yuanhong frowned, held his chin, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, I really don't know what An Ruozhi is doing, "Is the emperor's words too strict, I am still young, and the education of the prince is all loyal and responsible for the previous dynasty, I naturally will not let the prince grow up in the hands of a woman, let alone have a strong mother." ”

"Emperor Qi, Weichen is guilty, the queen mother is young, the foundation is shallow, just a little prestige, and then added to the position of the side queen, which is already a luxury. If the son of the queen is allowed to serve as the crown prince, the minister is worried that some people will not accept it, which will be unfavorable to the emperor. Concubine Ran De entered the palace, although there was no merit, but there was hard work, and gave birth to the eldest son and eldest daughter for the emperor, according to Jiang Guogong's words, there is no child in the middle palace, so the eldest son should inherit, and the minister elected the second prince as the prince. ”

The British public listened, and went up and slapped An Ruo for a long time, this son usually looks very shrewd, but now this matter is really troublesome, and he gave away the position of prince, and after he went back, he was not laughed to death by his colleagues.

Looking back, An Yeting and An Yecheng were standing comfortably behind, looking at the bustling marble floor, looking at their noses and eyes, as if they had nothing to do with the two of them.

The British duke is really angry and about to kill, doesn't it mean that the relationship between the two and his sister is very good? Why did his own father kill his sister, but the two of them did not move, this is too stupid and filial, that is their own sister who is the same mother.
