King Yu reigns and sets up a prince again?

What qualifications does he have to be a prince?

If the crown prince is set up by him, then tomorrow, will he also be abolished?

Empress Dowager Sun glanced at Zhu Qiyu, who was sitting on the wall, like an outsider, and her heart was even more uneasy.

She didn't think that a little Hanlin editor, who had eaten the heart of a bear and a leopard, would dare to openly claim power from herself.

After thinking about it, Empress Dowager Sun tentatively said: "King Yu, Xu Huijinyan, what do you think." ”

Zhu Qiyu said a word in his heart, and hurriedly got up: "Back to the Virgin Mary, the major affairs of the country, the ministers dare not say much, it should be decided by the Virgin Mary and the elders." ”

Zhu Qiyu threw the question to the Empress Dowager Sun again.

Empress Dowager Sun did not intend to let go of Zhu Qiyu: "You are the prisoner of the country, the brother of His Majesty today, and the uncle of the eldest son of the emperor. ”

Empress Dowager Sun is determined to make Zhu Qiyu express her position.

Who would have thought that Zhu Qiyu suddenly knelt down and burst into tears: "The prince is the foundation of the country, and it is a matter of the family and the country.

Please enlighten Our Lady.

Erchen won the trust of the imperial brother, supervised the country with the prince, and was terrified every day, hearing that the imperial brother was hunting in the north, every time he thought of the emperor's love, the son's heart was like a knife every day, and he was terrified.

The sons and daughters hope that the Virgin Mother will allow the sons and daughters to resign from the prison country, and the sons are willing to go to the nine sides for a pawn, for the Ming Dynasty, and for the royal brother. ”

It's a good brother and a brother, and a good move is to retreat.

Since ancient times, it has been the emperor's power to set up a prince, and I am a prince who is in charge of the country, and my identity is sensitive. What if the emperor turns over the old accounts in the future?

The name is not right, the word is not good.

Empress Dowager Sun's arm hidden in her sleeve trembled slightly.

Zhu Qiyu's words are already obvious, he will never agree to this canonization edict.

What is afraid that the emperor will come back to settle old accounts, what prince's position is panicked and precarious, and what is willing to go to the border as a pawn, all are false.

What do you mean is that the mourning family in the court is pressing you everywhere, interfering in the government, and making your prison country famous.

The mourning family is already willing to let go, do you still have to be reluctant?

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Empress Dowager Sun still did not give up, and set her sights on Wang Zhi, Jin Lian, and Chen Yi.

Empress Dowager Sun was already gritting her teeth with hatred in her heart, but she still continued to pretend on her face: "King Yu has a heart, how can the mourning family not know that it is his blessing for the emperor to have a brother like you."

Jin Ying, what are you still doing in a daze, why don't you quickly help King Yu up. ”

Jin Ying hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhu Qiyu.

After Zhu Qiyu sat down, Empress Dowager Sun continued: "Wang Shangshu, Jin Shangshu, what does the general constitution think?" ”

Different from Xu Hui, who is humble and light-hearted, one of these three people is a secretary of the ministry, a secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and a Zuodu imperial history, all of whom are second-class members, who have been up and down in the sea for many years, and who are civil officials.

Among them, the official department Shangshu Wang Zhi has the highest status, and he has the highest status in the promotion of officials below the fifth grade, and the appointment and dismissal of officials above the fifth grade also has a great right to speak.

Xuande, the cabinet of the orthodox dynasty is different from later generations, although the status of the cabinet at this time has risen after Sanyang, but it still failed to ask for consulting status, and the center of the world in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the actual Zaifu is still very different.

Nowadays, the highest status of the officials in the DPRK and China is only the chief official of the six ministries and nine secretaries, and among these, he is headed by the official department and is honored as the heavenly official.

How high is the position of the secretary of the ministry?

In order to restrict it from covering the sky with one hand, there are two unspoken rules of officialdom in the Ming Dynasty.

First, the secretary is not allowed to enter the cabinet.

Second, the secretary of the ministry has already stepped into the cabinet with half a foot.

Wang Zhi has been the secretary of the ministry for many years, and he is a lonely minister entrusted by the emperor, so he rarely speaks, but his weight is extremely heavy, and his prestige is extremely high, and he is almost a final word.

Among the nobles, the British Duke is the head.

Among the ministers, Wang Zhi was the leader.

Among the three, Empress Dowager Sun has the greatest grasp of Chen Yi. Chen Yi was in the Fengtian Temple brawl, if it wasn't for the emperor's will, I'm afraid it wouldn't have ended so well.

No matter what, after receiving the emperor's favor, if he does not support the emperor's eldest son in this matter, his official reputation will be ruined.

Jin Lian Na of the Ministry of Rites, although the matter of establishing the prince was hasty, there was nothing wrong with the etiquette.

As the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Jin Lian has no reason to object, he has already stated yesterday that as long as the holy decree arrives, the Ministry of Rites will immediately start to prepare.

And Jin Lian grew up watching Jinshang, and his relationship with the palace is relatively good, and he has been an assistant for many years, so there is always some friendship. Therefore, Empress Dowager Sun still has great expectations for the attitude of Jin Lian and Chen Yi.

As for Wang Zhi, in her opinion, then Wang Zhi will most likely remain neutral.

At that time, with the support of two people, Xu Hui didn't need to look at a small fish and shrimp, even if she was arrogant and forcibly issued an edict, she was very sure that she would be able to succeed.

Sure enough, as expected, Chen Yi was the first to speak: "The minister thinks that what the Holy Mother said is correct, the prince is the capital of the country, and the canonization of the prince is in line with the righteousness of etiquette and law.

The eldest son of the emperor obeyed the will of the people according to the law of his ancestors, and the ministers should support him. ”

It stands to reason that these three people should be headed by Wang Zhi, and he will say it first, but no one will investigate Chen Yi's "ignorance of the rules".

After Chen Yi finished speaking, Jin Lian immediately spoke, which was no different from what Empress Dowager Sun expected.

Zhu Qiyu saw that one person agreed, and the other excused, and couldn't guess that Wang Zhi would protect himself, so he couldn't help but be anxious.

Just when Empress Dowager Sun thought that the overall situation had been decided, a light cough made everyone's hearts tremble.

It was Wang Zhi who spoke.

"The old minister is straight, and he has something to say."

Wang Zhi paused and continued: "What the general constitution said, the old minister deeply agrees. ”

As soon as these words came out, Empress Dowager Sun showed a shallow smile after a long time today, and Zhu Qiyu was like falling into an ice cave.

But I never expected that Wang Zhi still had something to say.

But what Xu Hanlin said, I have to listen, Our Lady must not worry, now inside and outside the capital, and even in the north, it is necessary to work together to save the country.

Now that the reserve is weak and weak, it is difficult to take on a big responsibility, if His Royal Highness is in the name of auxiliary government, it may be difficult to go up and down, and the decree is accessible. ”

Therefore, the minister thought that the matter was urgent, and the Virgin Mary should first order the regent of the king and the prime minister, and wait for the situation to be a little calmer, and then set up the prince to calm the heart of the world. ”

Wang Zhi's attitude shocked everyone in the palace, no one thought that Wang Zhi would support King Yu with a clear banner.

Empress Dowager Sun only felt that the world was spinning.

This result, Empress Dowager Sun did not expect it, nor did the hundred officials in the palace expect it, they were all dumbfounded, and even Zhu Qiyu himself did not expect it.

Wang Zhi, why?

After Zhu Qiyu was surprised, a wave of ecstasy filled every corner of his body, and he soon understood why Wang Zhi did this.
