Chapter 463: Zhang Shaobao
The king of Nanyang County was originally one of the twelve elders of the Imperial Senate, but there were only nine of his permanent members, and the remaining three included Nanyang County Wang Shi Zhan, Dushan Boye Xiangdong and Hengyang Marquis Liu Yi, the assassin Shi Zhan committed suicide, Ye Xiangdong led the White Tiger Army to the south of the Yangtze River, Liu Yi led the Suzaku Army to contain the pseudo-Wu, so there were only nine of the twelve Imperial Senate veterans left, and there were Yanyang Marquis Gu Chuang who was suspected of implicating the former princelings, so it was inconvenient to appear in the Senate, so there were only eight people in the Senate on weekdays.
The senators of the Senate adopted a voting decision, and the eight senators often voted tially, so it was necessary to add one more senator, and after the Nanyang County Wang Shi Zhan committed suicide, the new Nanyang County Wang Shi Zhongqiu was just a twenty-year-old girl, and he was deservedly expelled from the list of the twelve senators of the Senate.
At this time, the elders also heard some rumors about the palace of Nanyang County, and they were more or less inclined to believe it, after all, how could a hot-blooded man face a girl like a flower, how could the two not collide with sparks? But the question is, if the female county king of Nanyang marries the Marquis of Hejian, will his family have two titles in the future, how can this be good? Isn't that a mess?
So the patriarchs hurriedly found Zhang Kuan and asked Zhang Kuan what to do about it.
Zhang Kuan first sneered: "It was not my intention to choose the female county king in the first place, but you didn't object, and now you know that it's troublesome?" The elders were embarrassed, and Zhang Kuan then said: "However, what you have heard is just rumors, and the female prince must be filial piety for three years before she can get married, and what will happen after three years will be said three years later." Three years later, I don't know if my body can still serve as the important task of the left minister......"
Zhang Kuan made it clear that he didn't want to care about this matter, and he was a little looking forward to throwing this problem to the emperor, and then Emperor Dade had to turn to him for help, and wouldn't it be important for him to solve the trouble at that time? So now, he wants to see what kind of jokes his grandson, the little emperor can make.
The patriarchs obviously had a lot of worries, but they were all old foxes, and seeing that Zhang Kuan ignored them, they didn't say anything more. But at this time, Emperor Dade suddenly found the elders and asked them for their advice on the canonization of the crown prince. His health has been good and bad, and the weather has been cold for the past few days, and he has suffered from a fever. In order to avoid the dilemma of the empire falling into the predicament of competing for the crown prince, Emperor Dade decided to canonize his only son, and King Xuanyuan of Zhao became the crown prince.
This year, when the six-year-old prince Xuanyuan Chenghua was canonized as King Zhao, the elders guessed that King Zhao would definitely be canonized as the crown prince, but they didn't expect the time to be canonized as the crown prince so soon.
The Holy Han Empire often canonized the crown prince relatively late, for example, the first emperor Taiqian, who was only canonized as the crown prince when the third prince Xuanyuan Zixun was thirty-two years old. The emperors of the Xuanyuan family were keen to test the merits of the Pope's sons, and tacitly allowed them to compete to choose the best sons from among the princes.
But Emperor Dade has only one son now, which is inevitably a little embarrassing, and the three concubines have nothing else to do, which makes some people's ambitions inflated, such as King Jin who was punished to see the hunting ground.
Canonizing the crown prince early is conducive to stabilizing the country, but there are also certain risks.
Although there is no rule that the crown prince must be the queen's heir, the queen's heir often has a relatively large advantage in the competition for the crown. Now, Ye Yuying, the granddaughter of Dushan Bo, who was originally the queen, postponed her marriage to Emperor Dade because of the Jiangnan War, but all the old ministers knew that the empress must be a member of Dushanbo's family.
The emperor has not yet married the queen, and he has already appointed the crown prince, obviously not taking the queen in his eyes, and the queen is the granddaughter of the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, so I am afraid that it will be very troublesome in the future, and there will even be chaos in the court.
The Senate has always supported Dushanbo, but when it comes to the canonization of the crown prince, the senators of the Senate have also begun to have their own little abacus.
Because the six divisions of the prince are basically decided by the Senate, which is also one of the few powers of the Senate, if the crown prince is not canonized, the Senate will have the ability to shout on weekdays. And after the crown prince is canonized, they have the right to recommend the six divisions of the prince. And this right of recommendation is too important, the sixth division of the crown prince is the most important support for the new emperor in the future, and it is also one of the symbols of the power of the court in the future, Zhang Kuan was once the prince of Emperor Taiqian, and Emperor Taiqian married Zhang Kuan's daughter, that is, the current Empress Dowager Zhang, which is rumored to be a good story.
The so-called six divisions of the prince are the prince and the prince, the prince and the young master, the prince and the prince, the prince and the prince, the prince and the prince. For example, Gu Yong, the young master of the late deposed prince Xuanyuan Zixun, was the most loyal princeling backbone, and if the crown prince succeeded to the throne, he would enjoy extremely high treatment and power.
If you let your sons and nephews serve as close ministers of the prince, the families of the elders will return to the peak of power in the future, so although the canonization of the prince will hurt the interests of Dao Du Shanbo, but for the honor and power of their own family, the elders unanimously supported the six-year-old King Zhao to be canonized as the prince as soon as possible, and set the time, the 28th day of the first month of the third year of Dade.
Subsequently, the elders immediately discussed who would be the sixth division of the crown prince.
Among these six masters, the Taishi mainly teaches the prince's literary knowledge, the prince enlightens the scriptures, teaches him the ability to govern the world, and teaches him the way to be a king, because the prince watched the prince grow up since he was a child, and carefully taught day and night, so the prince is almost equivalent to half of the prince's father, and played a vital role in the court.
As the future emperor, although the prince does not need to be proficient in leading the army, he must understand the relationship between military logistics and war, so as to avoid the emperor commanding the army indiscriminately. He must also have the ability to recognize people, so as not to trust a straw bag general to lead to the defeat of the national war and the country's difficulties, and these skills are taught by the crown prince and the prince.
The crown prince Taibao is the prince's bodyguard and also teaches the prince martial arts, but because he accompanies the prince day and night, he has the closest relationship with the prince. But the crown prince was mostly an honor, and the emperor rewarded the most loyal generals in the hope that he would continue to protect the imperial family.
As for the young master, the young master, and the young master are the people who rotate with the Taishi Taifu and the Taibao, and their status is not as good as the latter, and the knowledge imparted to supplement the content of the other party, so the positions of the young master were rewarded to the important ministers who supported the prince to win the hearts of the people.
Among the six divisions, the most important are the Taishi and the Taifu, and the least important are the Taibao and Shaobao, these two positions are the head of the bodyguards.
Regarding the fact that the patriarchs want to impeach themselves, Zhang Xiaowu does not know and does not care, the clear ones are turbid, he and Shi Zhongqiu are innocent, and they are not afraid of gossip. Suddenly, one day, Emperor Dade summoned him to the Palace of Nourishing the Heart, and announced the canonization of Zhang Xiaowu as the crown prince Shaobao, from now on, Zhang Xiaowu, the commander of the silver guard, has a well-known title, Zhang Shaobao - this makes Zhang Xiaowu think of the emperor who was killed by the emperor who borrowed from the sky for another five hundred years, and thought of Ao Shaobao's stunt Shenlong grabbing milkman - no, it is a golden bell cover iron cloth shirt.
