Chapter 0327: I Want to Do Qi Dance! Who is for and who is against?
As Cao Shen said this sentence in an inexplicably serious tone, 'Your Majesty performed the ploughing ceremony, but failed to complete the silkworm ceremony because there was no queen', the courtiers and officials couldn't help lowering their heads slightly, and a little strange color suddenly appeared on their faces.
It's not that Cao Shen's roundabout proposal to 'stand up' was beyond everyone's expectations;
In fact, just like Cao Shen's succession, although the matter of establishing the future has only appeared in the court today, the candidate has already been decided.
——As early as summer and June, Zhang Yan, the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Xuanping, had been sent into the palace by the Empress Dowager Lu Pheasant, saying that it was 'checking her temperament', but in fact, she was already letting Zhang Yan practice the etiquette in the palace and prepare for the wedding ceremony with Liu Ying in the spring of the next year.
Therefore, when Cao Shen euphemistically proposed in the Changxin Hall and the Yuanshuo Dynasty to 'establish the main pepper room after the establishment', everyone who could appear in the Changxin Hall on this day already knew the choice of the queen.
What really made the courtiers and officials feel a little awkward was that today, due to Xiao He's death, Liu Ying did not bow down when he went to the 'Sheji' in the southern suburbs of Chang'an······
Then, there was this scene that was displayed in the Changxin Hall at this moment.
——An hour ago, Liu Yinggang, the Son of Heaven, said in the southern suburbs of Chang'an: Xiao He is dead, I am very sad, and I will postpone the ploughing ceremony until spring;
And now, Cao Shen said without changing his face: Your Majesty has performed a ploughing ceremony, but there is no queen to preside over the silkworm ceremony······
But soon, the strange look on everyone's faces was retracted in order, and then they were replaced by a pair of 'What Cao Shen said makes sense, does Your Majesty want to consider it?' 's expression.
After all, no matter how you say it, they are the most outstanding talents of this era, and they are high-ranking officials and fathers who have been immersed in the court for many years;
Some people may not have fully mastered the skills of 'telling nonsense with their eyes open', but the skill of 'listening to others talking nonsense with their eyes open' is still difficult for these political giants.
Seeing the appearance of the hundreds of officials in the hall, Liu Ying nodded his head slightly, and then turned sideways and bowed to Lu Pheasant slightly.
-- The canonization of the queen, both theoretically and practically, belongs to the 'power of the queen mother' in the absolute sense.
Among them, of course, there is the consideration of 'the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker', in addition, there is also the meaning of the queen mother, the real mother of the world, who personally selects the queen of the 'mother of the world' for the people of the world.
In fact, not only the canonization of the queen, but also the canonization of the prince and the princes, as well as the princess and the princess and the princess who gave the title to Tang Mu Shiyi, and even the canonization of the crown prince and the prince are all within the scope of the queen mother's authority.
In the political background of the Han family, even if the queen mother is not Lu Pheasant, or even an honest person who is easy to bully, the edict of canonizing the queen, the prince, the princess, the princess, or the new prince and the clan as the princes and kings must be completed in the form of the queen mother's decree.
This is just the basics.
- If you put aside the difficulty of practical operation, theoretically, the Queen Mother even has the power to legally abolish the Son of Heaven!
Decades ago, the reason why the first emperor Yingzheng, who had not yet been crowned pro-government, would eradicate his stepfather Chang Yu in a fit of anger and kill the two half-brothers was precisely because of the Zhao family, the empress dowager of Qin at that time, who had the idea of 'abolishing the king and setting up another one'.
Later generations all know: the 'conspiracy' of Chang Yu and Empress Zhao was discovered by the wise and martial First Emperor Yingzheng and easily resolved;
But what most people in later generations have never thought about is: if Empress Zhao succeeds, what will be the result?
The answer is: the Chinese civilization will lose the reign of the first emperor, and the pace of Qin's unification of the world will stagnate slightly.
Nothing else.
No one will think that Zhao Hou is doing something wrong, and no one will think that Zhao Hou is 'arbitrary';
Because it is 'feasible to abolish the establishment', it is the legal right of the Queen Mother.
It is precisely such monstrous authority that is enough to make the 'Empress Dowager of the Han Dynasty' become a special group in the mouths of later generations, who are called "I in mouth, and collapsed in death", who are the same as the Son of Heaven, and who are more respectful than the Son of Heaven.
As in the original history, the Empress Gao Lu abolished the former young emperor and supported the later young emperor;
For example, after Emperor Wu Liu Che ascended the throne, he was almost abolished by the Empress Dowager Dou because of the new policy of Jianyuan;
For another example, in order to prevent future generations from being tormented by the fear that 'they may be abolished at any time', Emperor Wu Liu Che, who was determined to 'kill his mother and save his son'······
Since even the 'abolition of the Son of Heaven' belongs to the basic right of the Queen Mother, the canonization of the queen is definitely not a topic that can be discussed by the court.
Especially today, Liu Ying is only a 'child emperor' who has not yet been crowned an adult, which makes the canonization of the queen even more a forbidden place for the queen mother Lu Pheasant.
"Choosing a virtuous lady to be the main pepper house is a major event related to the society of the country and the world, and it must be solemn."
"That is, this matter is planned by the Marquis of Pingyang, and it will be investigated by the Marquis of Pingyang, among the Marquis of Chang'an, there can be a daughter of Miao Ling, gentle and virtuous, and the posture of the mother in the world?"
To put it mildly, Cao Shen hurriedly gave up his hand, and he had a posture of 'the minister will do it immediately'.
But in the hall, everyone including Lu Pheasant and Cao Shen knew that the only thing Cao Shen needed to do was to do nothing in the next five days, and then in the Chang Dynasty five days later, the candidate who had already been decided would be put on the court.
The matter after the establishment has also come to an end, in fact, this year's first pilgrimage ceremony is basically coming to an end.
As for the crown of the Son of Heaven Liu Ying and the pro-government, although it was not put on the table, in fact, the courtiers and officials were already tacit.
As for the reason, it is also very simple.
- "Li" cloud: Men are twenty and crowned, marry to start a family, and start a business together!
In other words, when a man reaches the age of twenty, he can be considered an adult, and he should consider starting a family and then starting a career.
The same is true for the emperor.
To put it simply, it is the Son of Heaven who is 'crowned and adult, married and pro-government'.
After the establishment, it is obvious that Liu Ying is about to get married, and the "big wedding" is based on the premise of crowning, and it meets the conditions of pro-government;
Therefore, when Cao Shen obviously took Lu Pheasant's instructions and proposed that 'Your Majesty should be established', it had actually indirectly indicated Lu Pheasant's attitude.
- Since my son is going to get married, he must be crowned first;
After adding the crown and getting married, he will naturally be able to pro-government.
According to common sense, the court discussion can basically be declared over at this point.
When the sky is over, it is a few more simple answers to mention a few commonplace topics such as 'Guanzhong Water Conservancy', 'Shaofu's government-run grain and rice', and 'border defense consolidation'.
But what was a little unexpected by the courtiers and officials was that after the topic of 'Lihou' ended, those familiar figures stood in the center of the Changxin Hall again.
"Wei's Korean envoy Yan Kai ······"
"Benhan envoy Meng Xi ······"
"Chenhan's envoy Wang Sheng······"
"Han Joseon Jun Ji Zhun!"
"Pause, see the Queen Mother, Your Majesty~"
As several people with different expressions bowed in unison, the faces of the courtiers and officials in the hall suddenly became a little exciting.
"Your Majesty, this is ······"
"Hey!"
"Doing Qi Dance ······"
"Do Qi Dance, ······"
After a little thought, everyone reacted to Liu Ying's intentions, looked at each other for a moment, and then scrambled to straighten their waists, and spontaneously prepared to 'cooperate with His Majesty at any time'.
On the royal steps, Liu Ying sat back on the imperial couch with a light smile, and waved casually.
"The king of Joseon is the feudal lord of my relatives, and he deserves a place in front of me."
Before Liu Ying's words fell, the Lang official next to the hall pulled up a banquet and placed it in the middle of the east seat.
"Minister, thank you, Your Majesty!"
Seeing that Ji Zhun bowed to Liu Ying in a deep manner, and then with a look of immediacy and a little anger, he snorted coldly at Yan Kai, the envoy of Wei Man, several times before he sat down on the feast.
Seeing this situation, the two people who happened to be sitting on both sides of Ji Zhun Hou Yongya and Taohou Liu Xiang suddenly understood, and successively bowed to Ji Zhun one after another, and then greeted each other in a whisper······
For the slight rude behavior of the three people, Liu Ying on the imperial stairs turned a blind eye, and only turned around with a natural expression, and looked at the other three people in the hall again.
"Your envoys have been here in Chang'an for several decades;"
"There are foreign vassals who come from afar, and I want to stay more, how can I have my own ancestral system: where the princes go to Chang'an, the full moon should be the country; It's not as good as ordering, and it's disrespectful to sit. ”
"The princes are like this, and the envoys of the foreign vassals have no reason to stay in Chang'an for a long time and not be allowed to return to the country······"
Whispering, Liu Ying naturally stopped talking, and gave a vague 'it's your turn' look to the hundreds of officials and courtiers in the hall.
Receiving Liu Ying's eye signal, Jiancheng Hou Lu Shizhi sat up straight, and even deliberately let out a few dry coughs, attracting the attention of everyone in the hall while clearing his throat by the way.
"When Emperor Taizu Gao was still alive, he once said to a certain person: If the princes go to Chang'an and cannot return, they are afraid that the subjects in the country will be uneasy, and they will pollute Chang'an to 'detain the king and not allow him to return'!"
"If the envoys of the foreign vassal are in Chang'an, but they are half a year old and are not allowed to return to the country, will not the foreign vassal mistakenly think: My Han family does not know the etiquette, and actually detains the envoy of the foreign vassal?"
Regarding Lu Shizhi's 'kindness' reminder, Ji Zhun, Yan Kai and other envoys had not yet reacted, but they saw Liu Ying naturally take over the conversation.
"The envoys are in Chang'an, and the first Yuan Shuo of this year, and winter is coming."
"If I stay any longer, I am afraid that the snow will cover the mountains and freeze for thousands of miles;"
"At that time, the envoys wanted to return to the country, but they had to wait until the beginning of spring and March······"
To put it mildly, the monarchs and ministers of the Han family directly finalized the proposal of 'sending the envoys back to China' before the Han envoys reacted.
And what Liu Ying did afterwards made the envoys of Zhuhan more and more confused.
"You are about to return to China, and you should be escorted by a soldier along the way."
said this sentence without changing his face, 'Since you want to go back', I saw Liu Ying bow her head thoughtfully, and then looked at Chao Banxi Xi coldly.
"I still remember that some time ago, Yan Xiang asked for the allocation of bows and arrows, swords, shields, and spears, as well as military rations and winter clothes for winter battles?"
"What are the things that Yan Xiang invited, how is the Shaofu organizing?"
Liu Ying said a word, and the atmosphere in the entire Changxin Hall couldn't help but stagnate!
Bows and arrows, swords, shields, and spears?
The military rations and winter clothes of the 'Winter War'?
This ······
"Your Majesty."
When everyone was in shock, it was Yang Chengyan who reacted first, walked out of the court without changing his face, and bowed his hand slightly to Liu Ying and Lu Pheasant on the imperial steps.
"By the order of His Majesty, I have sent out bows, crossbows and arrows from the Shaofu and Chang'an arsenals, 10,000 swords and shields, and 5,000 ges and spears;"
"Military rations, the minister has also transferred 2 million stone of private food from the Shaofu government, which is used by the soldiers of the Yan State to fight outside the country for three years old."
"As for winter clothes, 50,000 robes, 50,000 trousers, and 100,000 thick mattresses were issued in September last year."
As he spoke, Yang Chengyan lowered his head and muttered for a while before raising his head again.
"If there is nothing along the way, Shaofu will send the winter clothes and thick mattresses of the swallow thistle, and it should have arrived in Hangu at this moment; In less than half a month, the bento arrived in the hands of Yan Xiang. ”
Hearing Yang Chengyan's words, the courtiers and officials in the palace finally reacted, hurriedly restrained the look of surprise on their faces, and re-raised the shelves of the courtiers and high-ranking officials.
Especially around several envoys, the courtiers of the Han family all put on a posture of 'don't look at me, there is nothing to say', while Yongya and Liu Xiang whispered to Ji Zhun with their eyebrows fluttering.
Looking at the face of Yan Kai, the envoy of Wei Man, he was gradually filled with a pig's liver color, and Liu Ying, who was on the imperial stairs, finally secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But on the bright side, Liu Ying still looked smiling, and even a little innocent in her gaze when she looked at Yan Kai.
"Well, don't misunderstand."
"Yan Xiang, please transfer military rations and winter clothes, because he wants to quit Hu Barbarians in the north."
"Zongyan wants to go out of the plug for hundreds of miles, but it is just a move by my Han family to protect themselves······"
As she spoke, Liu Ying didn't forget to laugh at herself, and shook her head to herself.
"Hi ······"
"I don't know when, my Han family will not be bullied by the Northern Barbarians······"
After saying that, Liu Ying couldn't help but smile bitterly again, then raised her head, looked at Yangcheng again, and her expression returned to the previous one, the cloud was light and indifferent.
"That is, the military rations and blades required by Yan Xiang have been prepared, and the Han envoys will return to Yandong, so you might as well make the two go together."
After giving an explanation to Yang Chengyan, Liu Ying did not forget to raise her head with a light smile, and looked at Ji Zhun who was sitting between Yongya and Liu Xiang, with a look of surprise between her eyebrows.
"The Korean monarch wants to return to Ma Han, and the things allocated by the Shaofu will be sent to the thistle, and this will be the same way."
"And the carriages and horses along the way are tired, and the people who have to carry the grain are accompanied by the soldiers, and the Korean monarch should also protect himself?"
Hearing this, Ji Zhun stood up overjoyed, and was about to give up his hand to thank him, but as if he remembered something, he was stunned in place.
After a stunned look for a while, Ji Zhun raised his head worriedly, and finally made up his mind when he saw Liu Ying's worried gaze.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
"The minister has lost the North Korean community, and if he wants to return, he has to temporarily return to Ma Han."
"If you want to return to Mahan, you must first pass through Korea; Now, North Korea is defending all ······"
Speaking with apprehension, Ji Zhun did not forget to glare at Yan Kai viciously, and then continued to ask: "The minister dares to ask His Majesty for advice." ”
"——This out of Chang'an, until Yan Ji, the ministers are accompanied by my great Han Ruishi, and they have no anxiety;"
"Then wait until the swallow thistle, and the minister wants to go east again, cross Korea and go to Malaysia and South Korea······"
Halfway through his words, Ji Zhun stopped talking meaningfully, and only looked at Liu Ying's gaze with a full pleading.
And Ji Zhun's reaction finally allowed Liu Ying to find an opportunity.
——An opportunity to draw a perfect end to this stage play called 'Execution Qi Dance'.
"Joseon-kun doesn't have to worry too much~"
Seeing Liu Ying smiled disappreciatively and shook his head, he stretched out his hand like no one else, and pointed at Yan Kai in the hall.
"I have told the envoy of Wei Manchu and ordered Wei Manchu to return to Pyongyang to the king of Joseon."
In a childlike tone, he said this sentence, 'I have asked Wei Man to return North Korea to you', and Liu Ying turned her head slightly without changing her face.
When she looked at Yan Kai, Liu Ying's face still had that innocent and cute smile;
Only those deep eyes were like a sharp sword, and they couldn't wait to go straight into the depths of Yan Kai's soul······
"My edict, Wei Man, should not dare to disobey ······"
"Yan Qing, do you think so?"
