Chapter 808: Stratagem (1)
Lin Yushi's words were like a shock, and the ministers were a little unable to come back to their senses.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Shangshu came out to play: "The minister implores the emperor to carry out the canonization ceremony of the queen's mother as soon as possible, so that the middle palace can return to the throne and take charge of the phoenix seal, so that the chaos can be set right." ”
As soon as these words came out, the ministers were even more shocked.
Xiao Shangshu is Xiao Yuhan's father!
Xiao Yuhan has been an aggrieved queen for three years, and other courtiers have been on the fold, asking the queen mother to return the phoenix seal and so on. Xiao Shangshu kept silent.
Who would have thought that a few days after the new emperor ascended the throne, Xiao Shangshu was the first to come forward and ask for a canonization ceremony for Empress Xie.
This......
The intention of surrendering to the emperor is too obvious!
As soon as Xiao Shangshu's words fell, the elderly Yu Zhangyuan stood up: "Xiao Shangshu's words, the minister thinks it is not appropriate. Not long after the first emperor was buried, Empress Xiao experienced the pain of losing her husband, and now she wants to give up the position of queen of the middle palace, isn't it pouring salt on Empress Xiao's wounds? ”
"Does the emperor have no respect and mercy for his widowed sister-in-law?"
Ministers: "......"
Xiao Shangshu asked for the canonization ceremony for Empress Xie, but it was Empress Dowager Yu's father who jumped out to stop him.
The big drama that the dynasty will sing today is really exciting!
Immediately afterwards, Gu Qing's father, Lord Gu, also came out, refuting Xiao Shangshu with high-sounding rhetoric and supporting Yu Zhangyuan.
Several other officials spoke out to echo Yu Zhangyuan and Master Gu.
Lord Xie Junxie, who has been promoted to be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, has his own weight in speaking: "Brother to brother, this matter is rare in all dynasties. Now that the emperor has ascended the throne, Empress Xie's position as the queen of the middle palace should be justified. Otherwise, if it drags on for a long time, won't it damage Queen Xiao's clear name? ”
"What I don't like to say is that in ordinary people's homes, uncles and widowed sisters-in-law also have to avoid suspicion. Now that the emperor is sitting on the dragon chair, he has made the widow bear the name of the queen of the middle palace, what kind of system is this? How to deal with the dead emperor? ”
I have to say that after Xie Shilang was promoted to Xie Shangshu, his words were sharp and sharpened to a higher level. These words suddenly made Yu Gu and everyone fall into passivity.
Sheng Hong sat on the dragon chair, watching the excitement quietly, while secretly stealing joy in his heart.
Xie Jun's remarks all came from Xie Mingxi's plan.
As soon as it came to the issue of Empress Xiao's clear name and the color of Emperor Jian'an's hat after his death, Lord Gu of Yu Zhangyuan was also choked and speechless.
At this time, with Xie Jun's sharp rebuttal, Zhao Ge Lao Lu Ge also opened his mouth and spoke up, agreeing to the queen's canonization ceremony as soon as possible: "Xie Shangshu is reasonable. ”
"The old minister asked the emperor to make a holy decree as soon as possible and carry out the queen's canonization ceremony."
What's even more unexpected is that Elder Li Ge, who returned to the court after falling ill, also supported Empress Xie clearly: "The old minister also thinks that this matter cannot be delayed any longer. ”
Li Xiangru's body was sent back to the Li family, and Li Ge Lao knew that this was the emperor and queen releasing kindness. The huge Li family cannot be implicated by the Ningxia Wang couple.
What's more, Empress Xie served in Cining Palace for several days in a row, making enough face for Empress Dowager Li. The Li family can't help but accept this favor.
The old man Li Ge became old and refined, and after thinking about it for a few days, he returned to the court. With one mouth, he made a gesture of goodwill to the new emperor.
Several pavilion elders opened their mouths, and the general trend has been decided.
The new emperor finally opened his mouth and said: "What Zhong Aiqing said, I have already thought about it in my heart. I am the Son of Heaven, and my wife should be the queen of the Middle Palace. The Ministry of Rites selects an auspicious day as soon as possible and carries out the queen's canonization ceremony. ”
After speaking, the new emperor sighed subtly: "On the queen mother's side, I personally went to the Jiaofang Hall to explain to the queen mother. Family affairs are state affairs, and if you think about it, the queen mother will not be angry because of this trivial matter, let alone the separation of mother and son. ”
Yu Zhangyuan and Master Gu looked at each other gloomily, and each sighed secretly in their hearts.
Although the new emperor is young, he is skillful in the use of power and strategy. The competition above the court today can be glimpsed. The last remark was even more powerful.
Empress Dowager Yu wanted to stop and delay Empress Xie's canonization ceremony in the middle palace, but I was afraid that it would be in vain.
What's even worse is that Lin Yushi's impeachment today was too sharp, exposing the ambition of Empress Dowager Yu in front of all the ministers. It's just that I didn't say that Empress Dowager Yu seized the power of the queen.
On that day, Emperor Jian'an relied on the Empress Dowager Yu everywhere and automatically retreated, and Empress Xiao had a weak temperament and was firmly pressed by the Empress Dowager Yu.
Xindi is obviously not a soft persimmon to pinch. This Empress Xie is even more clever and good at manipulating public opinion and people's hearts. Now it has the upper hand in morality and filial piety, which is very unfavorable to Empress Dowager Yu......
The news of the court reached the ears of the Empress Dowager Yu, and I don't know how angry the Empress Dowager Yu would be!
……
Jiaofang Palace.
After listening to Zhilan's report, Empress Dowager Yu's face was blue, cold and angry.
However, full of anger, he could only endure and could not spit out.
She sent Xie Mingxi to Cining Palace, which was a clever move. trapped Xie Mingxi with a filial piety character, so that Xie Mingxi couldn't get out of Cining Palace, so naturally he was powerless to compete with her.
Unexpectedly, Xie Mingxi came up with a plan, taking advantage of this matter to retreat into advance, hyping up and manipulating rumors and people's hearts.
She had to admit that Xie Mingxi's shrewdness was far more difficult than Xiao Yuhan's, and Xie Mingxi's treacherous and insidious was beyond her expectations.
She overestimated her influence on the court, but underestimated the ability of Sheng Hong and Xie Mingxi.
In this game, she has already lost.
The air in the Jiaofang Hall was like condensation, and the palace maids who were waiting on the side didn't even dare to come out.
Yu Qiao trembled and came to report: "The Empress Dowager Qi, Gonggong Wei came to deliver the letter, and the emperor will come to the Jiaofang Palace after the emperor disperses the dynasty and accompany the Empress Dowager to have lunch together. ”
Empress Dowager Yu did not get angry, but softened her complexion and laughed: "You go to the imperial dining room and give an order, and prepare a sumptuous meal." ”
He also instructed Zhilan: "Spread the message of the mourning family and summon the Xiao family to come." Go to Cining Palace again and ask Xie to come over too. ”
Yu Qiao Zhilan quickly glanced at each other, and felt quite frightened that the mountain rain was about to come, and she retreated.
After a while, Sheng Hong came.
After entering the Jiaofang Palace, Sheng Hong surrendered his hand and confessed: "Today, in the middle of the court, Lin Yushi impeached the queen mother. Erchen has reprimanded Lin Yushi. Xiao Shangshu, Xie Shangshu and others all asked for the queen's canonization ceremony, but the ministers could not retreat, so they responded. I beg the Queen Mother not to be surprised! ”
Empress Dowager Yu's anger a moment ago was gone, and she said with a pleasant face: "The emperor ascended the throne, and he should be crowned by the queen." This matter is justified, and it is strange to mourn the family. Could it be that in the emperor's heart, the mourning family is the unkind mother-in-law, the queen mother who likes to play with power? ”
Sheng Hong had to open his mouth again to confess: "Erchen has no such intention. The queen mother's love and care for her sons and Mingxi can be seen by the sun and the moon. ”
Empress Dowager Yu didn't seem to hear the slightest sarcasm in the new emperor's tone, and smiled gently: "If you can understand, the mourning family will rest assured." ”
