Chapter 247: Concubine Yan's qualifications

Since the funeral of Empress Changsun, it is not that no one has had extravagant hopes for that position, but Li Shimin's concubines are really interesting, among all the concubines, those who are qualified to be established as queens have no high status, and most of those who have status are not qualified to be established as queens.

In addition, Li Shimin also said later that he would no longer stand in the future, so gradually, everyone stopped thinking about it.

But just today, Li Shimin not only broke the oath not to make the queen again, but also the queen who was established was still Concubine Yan, which really surprised everyone - but if you think about it carefully, it is not surprising that Concubine Yan's maiden family is indeed not powerful, but if you count carefully, only Concubine Yan is qualified to be the queen in the palace now.

First of all, let's not talk about those who don't have enough status, let's explain why the concubines with status in Li Shimin's harem are not qualified to be made queens.

The first one is naturally the big Yang Concubine (Li Shimin has two Yang concubines, respectively the big and small Yang concubines), that is, Yang Shufei, gave birth to Li Ke, the king of Wu, and Li Su, the king of Shu, especially Li Ke, he is known as the son who is most like Li Shimin, wise and martial, it stands to reason that Concubine Yang is absolutely qualified to be called the queen.

The problem is - this Da Yang Concubine, she is a former royal family, and she is also the daughter of Emperor Yang of Sui, that is to say, she is a former Sui princess, and Li Shimin is a cousin and sister (Li Yuan and Yang Guang are cousins)...... Since she has the blood of the former Sui, she naturally can't be the queen.

followed by Wei Guifei, Wei Guifei was born in Jingzhao Wei, one of the most important scholar families in the Tang Dynasty, and the biological mother of Li Shen, the king of Ji, and Princess Linchuan.

But she still has a problem - that is, this Wei Guifei is a remarried person, her first husband is Li Min, and the two also have a daughter, and later Li Min was killed because of Yang Xuangan's rebellion, Wei Guifei was married into the Qin palace by Li Shimin, and Li Shimin was named a concubine after being called the emperor...... A person who remarries, no matter how much Li Shimin loves her, it is impossible to be made a queen, even if Li Shimin wants to, but the ministers will never agree.

Then there is the Yin Concubine, the Yin Concubine is the biological mother of Li You, the king of Qi, and the Yin family behind her is also one of the former Sui Hao clans, and her father Yin Shishi is still a former Sui general, after Li Yuan raised troops in Jinyang, the Yin Shishi who guarded Chang'an dug up the ancestral grave of the Li family as usual (this is indeed a custom), and killed Li Shimin's younger brother, Li Zhiyun, the king of Chu......

In other words, the Li family and the Yin family have a deep hatred, and Li Shimin can marry the Yin concubine regardless of his previous suspicions, which is already generous enough, and he wants to seal the queen...... is still the same sentence, even if Li Shimin is willing, the Li royal family is still unwilling.

followed by Concubine Xiao Yang, that is, Concubine Yang (not the one of Tang Xuanzong, Li Shimin also has a Concubine Yang, but now she is not a concubine, the concubine is treated by Concubine Wei), Concubine Xiao Yang and Li Shimin also have a son, that is, Li Ming, the king of Cao. It's just that Concubine Xiao Yang is also a former Sui royal family, and Concubine Da Yang is a cousin, and more importantly, she was still Li Yuanji's wife before. Concubine Yang's reputation is not as good as Concubine Yang, so naturally she can't be made a queen.

followed by Concubine Xu Xian, but Concubine Xu Xian was still young at this time (the same age as Li Zhen, both were born in the first year of Zhenguan), and she had just been included in the palace, and Concubine Xian had not yet become a queen, let alone the queen.

The last one is Concubine Yande, that is, Concubine Yan, compared with the previous ones, Concubine Yan has no black history, the only problem is that Concubine Yan's maiden family is not powerful......

But I can't bear the innocence of others, you see that the previous concubines were the royal family of the previous dynasty, and they were remarried women, and they were no longer enemies with the Li family, no matter who they set up, they couldn't be reassured.

There is only Concubine Yan, not only is Li Shimin married into the palace of King Qin, but also has a son (in fact, there are two sons, but Li Huan has died, so I won't say it), although the mother's family is a little pitted, but I can't bear the skills of people and have a capable son, so if you really have to pick out one of the concubines to be crowned as the queen, then only Concubine Yan has this qualification.

"Where does the joy come from?" Unlike the excited Liuli, Concubine Yan seemed quite calm, and a wisp of sadness flashed in her eyes from time to time.

In fact, at the beginning, she was also frightened, and she was stunned for a while, followed by an indescribable ecstasy, but in the end the ecstasy turned to worry. She actually has an indifferent personality and doesn't attach much importance to the position of queen, but as a mother, the first time she received the holy decree, she thought of Li Zhen - if she is made the queen, then Zhen'er will definitely become a concubine, which will be extremely beneficial to his future development......

Sure enough, after reading out the holy decree, Du Ruhui's words also made her understand the whole story - to put it bluntly, she and Li Zhen are mutually fulfilling, Li Zhen has made military achievements, and she has been replaced by the position of the queen, and after she becomes the queen, Li Zhen will also become a concubine from a concubine, making up for the last shortcoming in the future......

It's just that when she thinks of Li Zhen fighting desperately on the front line, but she is sitting back and enjoying her success, Concubine Yan has a faint sense of guilt......

Seeing this, Liuli hurriedly asked curiously: "Niangniang, why are you unhappy to be named the queen?" ”

"How happy am I? This posterior position was fought for me by Zhen'er with her life, how can I be happy? Speaking of Li Zhen, Concubine Yan's tears fell......

Zhen'er went deep into the enemy territory, and she didn't know if it was dangerous or not, whether she ate well or not, I heard that the environment in Nanyang was very bad, and Zhen'er didn't know if she could adapt to it? Don't get sick......

"Hey, I'm sorry Niangniang, it's the slave who is not good, and I talked about your sadness." Liuli saw Concubine Yan crying, and immediately panicked, knowing that Concubine Yan remembered the matter of King Yue again, and hurriedly persuaded: "Actually, His Royal Highness King Yue is very good, the slave maid listened to Li Defu next to the emperor and said that King Yue did encounter a little trouble when he first entered Nanyang, but it was solved by King Yue, and now His Royal Highness King Yue is rampaging in Nanyang, and now he has hit the capital of the country called Linyi, and the queen of Linyi has already surrendered out of the city......"

Hearing this, Concubine Yan's eyes suddenly lit up: "Then according to what you say, as long as you destroy that Lin Yi, Zhen'er will be able to come back?" It's so nice......"

"This ......" Liuli fell into a dilemma, and had the intention to hide it, but the lie will be exposed one day after all, if you want to tell the truth, you are afraid that Concubine Yan will be disappointed, so you can only snort and dare not speak.
