Chapter 490: The Matter of the Country!
Mama Li didn't mention how happy she was, the empress actually took the initiative to ask her about this, this is a process that the princess must have before she gets married, let the old mama "teach" it, and the old mama is generally assigned by the queen.
And the empress actually asked about it herself, she is also a woman, this is ......
"Mama, no...... I'm just asking...... Just ask......" The empress was a little panicked, her eyes flickered, and she almost wrote the words "weak heart" on her face.
"Holy Lord, why do you need to hide it from your slaves?" Mama Li grabbed the empress's hand again, very excited, "It's good to choose a son-in-law, it's good to choose a son-in-law, my daughter is the emperor, she will be criticized by the world, if she gives birth to an heir, she can block the mouth of the world...... Shengshang, you are the biological daughter of Emperor Xian and Emperor Xuanzong, and you are with Emperor Xian...... It's different! This matter of choosing a son-in-law is the ...... of the country."
Mama Li is also close enough to the empress, or close enough to the empress of the Shendu, that she dares to speak.
She said very vaguely the problem of the Empress of Shendu back then.
That is, the empress of Shendu had a period of time, and she was extravagant, and after a few years, she was lonely and raised a lot of male pets, and then she was killed by Kang Longji because of the chaos of the male pets, and the empress relented.
But Mama Li knew the key insider, that is, there was a male pet who intended to let the Empress of Shendu give birth to a child, and the Empress of Shendu was over fifty years old at that time, but ...... It's not been a few years since she gave birth to Princess Yunjing, so it's hard to say whether she can give birth or not.
This is definitely not going to work!
The Empress of Shendu ascended the throne, she was planning to usurp the throne, she could be the first emperor, but she must not "pass on" the throne, she could only pass the throne to the Wu bloodline, not her own child, but also the children and grandchildren of Emperor Xuanzong.
She had a son with her, and from the situation at the time, legally speaking, she was indeed a prince, but she was no longer of the Wu bloodline, so it was absolutely impossible!
This is the biggest difference between the Empress of Shendu and the Empress of Shenzhao.
The Empress of Shendu, after all, is an "outsider", she can pass the throne to her own children, but it must also be of the Wu bloodline.
And Empress Shenzhao, she is the biological daughter of Emperor Xuanzong.
The empress of the Shendu can't have an imperial husband, she can only have a male pet, her pleasure is pleasure, Kang Longji turns a blind eye, if she dares to spread the unification, Kang Longji will kill people.
And the Empress Shenzhao can have an imperial husband.
It can even be said that this royal husband can be anyone.
Because it was the Empress Shenzhao who gave birth to the child, and she had the blood of the Wu family flowing in her body.
Therefore, the matter of Emperor Shenzhao's selection of sons-in-law is no different from the previous emperor's selection of concubines, and it is a major event related to the country's capital and the country's society.
Of course, Empress Shenzhao can also have many men, but she can also have one man, and this will not be persecuted or criticized in any way.
Because, when a man is the emperor, he is often forced to choose a concubine by the old ministers, and it is not good to have fewer women, there must be more, and the old ministers will play at every turn...... That's because the old ministers are dedicated to the country, and they hope that the emperor can have as many descendants as possible, so that in the event of an accident, they can be stable.
But women are different for emperors.
It is the woman who gives birth to the child.
She was alone.
So, it doesn't matter how many men she has, one is no different from a hundred, she gave birth anyway.
Even, according to the traditional concept, Empress Shenzhao only needs one man, which is more...... On the contrary, it will be criticized, and perhaps opposed by the old ministers.
Women will be criticized for being emperors, and women will also be criticized if they don't end up with the same, which is a traditional thinking that has existed for thousands of years, and it is not easy to change.
Even the Empress of the Shendu would have been attacked back then, and Kang Longji's blood in the inner court was flowing, not to mention the Empress Shenzhao...... She wasn't as strong as her mother.
Of course, having said that, now Empress Shenzhao doesn't have a man.
That's the problem, too, the big one!
It is estimated that even if Empress Shenzhao does not have the intention of choosing a son-in-law now, when the political situation in the court is stabilized, or the situation in the world has deteriorated a little, there will inevitably be old ministers who will play and force her to choose a son-in-law.
After all, the emperor has no descendants, and it is a taboo in all dynasties!
The empress blushed, she just asked, thinking that Mama Li would tell her, and she had a good bottom in her heart.
She didn't expect Mama Li to be so excited and excited.
Shame on you!
The empress has learned poetry and poetry since she was a child, and it is no problem for her to learn the art of war and strategy, and she is preparing to become an emperor three years before she ascends the throne...... didn't teach her how to marry someone.
She has also seen some of the big inner **, and she has also seen the pictures, but that will only make her know some in ignorance.
Asking an old woman to teach is not only a tradition in the Imperial Palace, but also among the people. In the palace, it is mostly the old mother who comes to teach, and in the people, it is mostly the mother who teaches in person.
It is usually explained by the mother on the night before the wedding.
"Mama, in fact, I ......"
"Holy Lord, you already have a man you like?" Mama Li grabbed the words again, looking extremely interested, "Which son-in-law is it?" ”
"No, Mama, you really misunderstood...... empress's face changed, "I, I don't want to choose a husband, no, it's not decided, it's just to ask first, you say, you just say it first, it's over...... I'll tell you later. ”
Mama Li saw the empress's shy and embarrassed appearance, so she didn't force it anymore.
It's normal to not be able to say this.
Even if the person in front of her is the emperor, she is only an eighteen-year-old yellow flower girl.
"Holy Lord, the slave and maid will say to you, you can remember......"
"Mama, sit down, sit down and say...... Whisper. ”
"Holy Lord, this cave room, you have to ...... first And then...... And then ...... Such and such...... Such...... You're the first to get it...... Remember...... Get ready for white silk...... And then...... Such...... Men are ...... Holy you have to ...... ...... like this"
The empress was stunned.
It's so embarrassing!
Mama Li even said that it was so scary!
"So, will it break?" The empress's wording can be said to be terrible.
"How so? It's all ......."
******
At the same time, the Qianli Palace.
Zhou An had just washed up and was dressing alone in the house, and after he grew up, he didn't ask anyone to serve him, just alone.
Hurried footsteps could be heard outside the door.
Knock knock!
"Factory Father!" The voice of the little eunuch sounded at the door, and it turned out to be a small pavilion.
He suddenly returned to the palace.
"Come in!" Zhou Andao, who was facing the mirror and tidying up his clothes.
The small pavilion pushed the door in, glanced at it, and walked quickly behind Zhou An with his head down.
"Something's wrong?" Zhou An asked without replying.
"Yes! Last night, the Shangshu Bao Mingjing of the Criminal Department hanged himself, Chen Xing, the right capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, committed suicide by taking poison, and Zhao Tengxiang, the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, hanged himself, as well as the waiter of the Ministry of Rites and the waiter of the Ministry of Officials......" The little pavilion took out a small notebook and read it respectfully behind Zhou An.
