Chapter 782: The Enraged Ministers
Although there is a saying that the harem cannot interfere in political affairs, but this is just a statement, not an explicit provision, if there are special circumstances, such as the sudden death of the emperor, the young emperor succeeds to the throne, then the queen mother can come forward to intervene in the government, so, the harem can also be handed to the sparse, but under normal circumstances, the harem can only play the harem major events, if you trespass the politics, I am afraid that I will be sprayed to death by the ministers, the pink recital book, is the harem special recital.
Li Zhi raised the note in his hand again, and said: "This is the note that the queen presented to me yesterday, and the queen mentioned a major event in the palace, I feel that this matter is too important, and I want to discuss it with the ministers. β
The ministers were all surprised when they heard this, because their first reaction was to establish a prince, according to the normal way of thinking, the queen's sloppiness was very important, except for the matter of establishing a prince, they really couldn't think of anything else, but the prince Li Hong is only two years old now, and I feel that the queen is too anxious.
Li Zhi had already handed the song to Xu You and said, "Xu You, read it and listen to it." β
"Yes." After a long time, he respectfully took the recital, slowly unfolded it, and then read it aloud.
After reading a few words, the ministers were suddenly shocked and changed, what kind of Li Chu is this, as soon as he started, he said that the talented Wu family of the first emperor gave birth to a son and a daughter for the current emperor, and also said that Wu Meiniang is virtuous and virtuous, and the royal blood cannot be left outside, so he wants to take Wu Meiniang and Longzi and Longnu into the palace.
Just after reading the recital, Yu Zhining, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was already out of the ranks, and said with an angry face: "Your Majesty, Wu Meiniang was a talented person of the previous emperor, then the emperor's concubine, as the king of a country, should be an example for all the people, how can you do such a thing that violates morality, mess up the ethics of the norm, ministers...... Minister......"
Yu Zhining was so angry that he trembled with excitement, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only say in a loud voice: "The minister is resolutely against this matter!" β
"Your Majesty, Wu Meiniang must not enter the palace, and the emperor should also issue an edict of guilt! On the Suzaku Gate, chant to all the people! β
"The emperor should also go to Zhaoling to apologize to the former emperor and confess in front of the former emperor's mausoleum, otherwise what face will the emperor face the emperor and the ancestors!"
β¦β¦
A group of officials have issued three demands, first, not to allow Wu Meiniang to enter the palace, second, let Li Zhi write an edict for his own crimes, and third, let Li Zhi go to the front of Li Shimin's tomb to think about it and repent of his crimes, for them, this is a heinous crime!
There has always been a saying about "dirty Tang stinky man", why is it said to be dirty Tang, because the emperors of the Tang Dynasty had many incestuous behaviors, and among them, Li Zhi's marriage to Wu Meiniang is the most, it can be seen that even in the future world, this kind of thing is also despised, let alone in the ancient society with strict etiquette. Fortunately, this was in the Tang Dynasty, and if it was in the Ming Dynasty, it is estimated that the ministers would be ready to change the emperor.
Looking at the ministers coming out one after another, Li Zhi's face became pale, he felt that he was slapping himself in the face, and it was the kind of crackling, he suddenly wanted to retreat, but he didn't expect the ministers' reactions to be even more intense than he imagined.
Finally, no one came out of the queue anymore, and the fifteen ministers stood in the center of the hall, all glaring at Li Zhi with angry faces, don't look at you as the emperor, we just dare to stare at you, because we are reasonable! Occupy the righteousness!
Except for a few of Li Hao's friends, the rest of the people maintained a wait-and-see attitude, this group of people was more shrewd, they saw that the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang did not speak, so they were not in a hurry to speak, first look at the direction of the wind.
At this time, Zhongshu Ling Liu Zheng suddenly came out of the ranks, and said loudly: "The emperor's selection of concubines and concubines is a family affair of the emperor, and our courtiers should not talk too much!" β
"Ridiculous!" Yu Zhining pointed at Liu Zheng angrily, glared and scolded, "The royal affairs are related to the people of the world, and the affairs of the society and the royal family are not private!" Besides, as the emperor is the king of a country, he has committed incest, and we, as courtiers, shouldn't we speak out and advise, as a Zhongshu Ling, you actually slander and confuse the public, what crime should you be guilty of! β
"Zhongshu ordered Liu Zheng to slander and charm, and the minister asked the emperor to take away the post of Liu Zhengzhongshuling!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"The minister also seconded it!"
β¦β¦
Yes, Liu Zheng's words actually encountered the disaster of the pond fish, Liu Zheng was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he didn't know if the emperor could withstand the verbal criticism of these people.
The eldest grandson Wuji glanced at Chu Suiliang, Chu Suiliang strode out of the queue and said loudly: "Everyone, please listen to the old man!" β
The ministers immediately moved their eyes to Chu Suiliang, I don't know if this old guy is an enemy or a friend, anyway, no matter who wants to let Wu Meiniang enter the palace, they will scold whoever they want, the world is big, and the etiquette is the greatest!
Chu Suiliang said: "Everyone, Wu Meiniang is indeed the emperor's mother, and the emperor should not do this deceitful thing, but now the big mistake has been made, we should think of a way to remedy, instead of blindly complaining, Wu Meiniang's children are all dragon species, how can the dragon species be outside the palace, the old man proposed, let the emperor first take Wu Meiniang and the dragon son and dragon girl into the palace, and then you will slowly discuss the next thing." β
"Impossible!" Yu Zhining glared and shouted angrily, "Although the big mistake has been made, if the emperor takes Wu Meiniang into the palace, it will be a mistake again and again!" β
Chu Suiliang frowned when he heard this, and said coldly: "Then according to the meaning of the lord, is it to let the emperor's dragon species wander into the rivers and lakes?" β
Yu Zhining said: "The emperor can bring the dragon seed into the palace, but Wu Meiniang!" Hum! Don't even think about it! β
Seeing Yu Zhining's tough attitude, Li Zhidu was in a hurry, turned his head and looked at the eldest grandson Wuji with a pleading gaze, the eldest grandson Wuji also frowned, although he had long expected that things would be difficult to do, but he didn't expect Yu Zhining's attitude to be so tough, this old Confucian minister is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, usually the most important etiquette, and there are many protΓ©gΓ©s, many other Confucian ministers are headed by him, and Confucian ministers are the most difficult to deal with, because if this group of people once they take advantage of the reason, they will think that they are the messengers of justice with a halo, holding the sword of justice to punish adultery and eliminate evil, and they will not give up until they achieve their goal, It's all a bunch of crazy people, and now that they are in charge, they will definitely bite and refuse to let go.
The eldest grandson Wuji secretly made a gesture to a few people in the rear, and seven or eight ministers in the rear came out one after another to argue with these Confucian ministers, while the eldest grandson Wuji listened to their debate silently on the side, secretly thinking of a way to solve it in his heart.
After a long time, the eldest grandson Wuji finally moved, only to see him slowly step out of the ranks, the group of Confucian ministers looked nervous, the big guy appeared, can they not be nervous, how to say that they have also stood in the queue of the eldest grandson Wuji for several years, there is naturally psychological coercion.
Li Zhi saw that the eldest grandson Wuji was ready to go, and his heart was excited and expectant, the eldest grandson Wuji was his only lifeline.
After the eldest grandson Wuji came out of the ranks, he bowed down to Li Zhi, and then raised his voice: "Your Majesty, for this matter, the old minister thinks that the emperor is wrong, and it is a big mistake!" The emperor should issue an edict of guilt, and he should also go to the mausoleum of the first emperor to ask for three days of reflection. β
The Confucian ministers were immediately relieved when they heard this, but Li Zhi was stunned when he heard this, and shouted anxiously in his heart: "Uncle, you are here to help me!" You're here to help me......"
Li Hao was a little stunned when he saw it now, Li Zhi and the eldest grandson Wuji actually chose to give in? This is not scientific, it is obviously not the style of the eldest grandson and the old fox.
The eldest grandson Wuji secretly squeezed his eyes at Li Zhi, Li Zhi was stunned when he saw this, and immediately understood, and hurriedly said: "Okay, I know that I am deeply responsible, so I approved the invitation of the emperors, issued an edict of guilt, and went to the front of the tomb of the first emperor to think about it for three days!" β
Li Hao stood in the front row of the military attache team, and saw the eldest grandson Wuji squeezing his eyes at Li Zhi, he suddenly had an epiphany, yes, this old fox is preparing to repair the plank road in the dark, and then come to a first cut and then play, and directly take Wu Meiniang into the palace, when the time comes, the Confucian ministers will inevitably have to criticize and write again, it doesn't matter, if you make a mistake, you will make an edict of guilt, and then go to the front of the emperor's mausoleum to think about it.
Although Li Hao didn't know the specific plan of the eldest grandson Wuji, he guessed that it was roughly the case.
So Li Hao suddenly came out of the queue and shouted loudly: "The emperor knows that mistakes can be corrected, and he is very good!" β
Li Hao's sentence is actually a bit nondescript, but here, it can barely be used, and the three princes also came out together, shouting: "The emperor knows that he can change his mistakes, and he is very good!" β
Then all of Li Hao's friends chanted together, and then all the ministers chanted together: "The emperor knows that he can change his mistakes, and he is very good!" β
Li Hao secretly smiled evilly in his heart: Knowing that mistakes can be changed, and being good is great, but changing it doesn't mean that you won't make it, and you will change it next time you make it.
