Chapter 290 The middle way and the end of the dynasty
Chapter 290 The middle way stops and the destruction of auspiciousness. Heaven follows people and wishes that the Wei Wei will become the queen
"Stop in the middle way, and the court will be deposed (Empress Hu Shanxiang)!" said the emperor.
"Idiom interpretation: middle way: halfway, halfway stop. The phrase comes from "Guanzi? Fafa": "(order) and the way stops, it is called yong. Yin Zhizhang's note: Once the matter is out, the stop is known in the middle of the journey. This is an accident between the left and right yong kings." Yang Rong explained with a smile.
"Yes! Some court officials, after repeated delays, fabricated 20 mistakes and submitted them to the emperor for review." The emperor's determination to make Concubine Sun Ruowei the queen did not change, so he asked the three Yangs to bring the ministers' opinions, and the emperor took the result. In Concubine Sun's living room, Yang Shiqi respectfully handed over the memorial.
"The memorial was made out of nothing, slandering Empress Hu Shanxiang, causing the palace and temple to appear." The emperor suddenly changed his expression after reading it, and stood up and said angrily.
"Your Majesty doesn't have to be angry. There are many examples of the deposed queens in ancient dynasties. For example, Emperor Jing of Han: In the sixth year of BC (151 BC), Liu Qi's grandmother, Empress Bo, died. Because she had no son and had no favors, she was dissatisfied with her grandmother's arranged marriage, and deposed Queen Bo!" Yang Rong said, looking at Concubine Sun.
"Yes! Ancient emperors had no descendants, and they also refused to be the queen, such as Yin Lihua..." Yang Pu talked about the example of Yin Lihua: Yin Lihua was born in an extremely prominent family. He was the wife of Liu Xiu, and was a descendant of Guan Zhong, a famous Qi prime minister in the Spring and Autumn Period. In June of the first year of Gengshi (23), Yin Lihua and Liu Xiu became husband and wife at the age of nineteen. In the second year of Gengshi (24), Liu Xiu wanted to unify Hebei and intended to form an alliance with Liu Yang, the king of Zhending. However, Liu Yang was of noble origin and was unwilling to surrender to Emperor Gengshi and Liu Xiu. He asked both parties to marry. Liu Xiu then ordered Liu Zhi to be a matchmaker and marry Guo Shengtong, the niece of Zhending King Liu Yang, Guo Shengtong, Guo Yang, the niece of Zhending King Liu Yang. However, Liu Yang was of noble origin and was unwilling to surrender to Emperor Gengshi and Liu Xiu. He asked both parties to marry. Liu Xiu then ordered Liu Zhi to be a matchmaker and marry Guo Shengtong, the niece of Zhending King Liu Yang, Guo Yang.
, shortly after marriage, gave birth to Liu Jiang. In the third year of Emperor Gengshi (25th year), Liu Xiu proclaimed himself emperor and changed the first year of Jianwu, and took back Guo Shengtong and Yin Lihua, and they were both nobles. The following year, Liu Xiu wanted to sign Yin Lihua as the queen, but Yin Lihua refused, on the grounds that he had not given birth, but Guo Shengtong had already given birth to a son. As a result, Liu Xiu made Guo Shengtong the queen and made his eldest son Liu Jiang the crown prince. Liu Xiu became his favorite concubine, and was favored by Emperor Guangwu. Yin was enthroned as the empress. In the seventh year of Yongping, Yin Lihua passed away and reigned for 24 years. He was buried with Liu Xiu in Yuanling. The emperor and ministers of the Eastern Han Dynasty were given his posthumous title as "Empress Guanglie".
"But in the third year of Yongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Empress Dowager Yin Lihua issued an order: "Ma Guiren Deguan is the harem, which is the person." So he made the empress. Ma Guiren became the empress of the main palace and adopted son Liu Yan, and became the crown prince. In June of the fourth year of Jianchu (79), the 42-year-old Empress Dowager Ma died of illness in Changle Palace and was posthumously named Empress Mingde. In July of the same year, she and Emperor Ming were buried together in Xianjie Tomb. Although Empress Ma had no son, she was always in love with Emperor Ming, and the position of empress sat very steadily." Yang Shiqi said with a smile.
"Yes! Empress Ma really has no son!" Yang Pu said. Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong, and Yang Pu were completely different examples, which of course represented three views. Concubine Sun listened to the analysis in her heart. In the case of Yang Rong, there was a factor in wishing the emperor to depose Empress Hu Shanxiang and make Concubine Sun Ruowei the queen. In the case of Yang Shiqi, if there is a child, you can also be the queen. In the case of Yang Pu, the noble man refused to be the queen without having a child. In order to abolish the human sacrifice system, Concubine Sun had to use the favorable conditions of his son to fight for the throne according to Yang Rong's proposal, but did not refuse the emperor's act of deposing Empress Hu Shanxiang and making Concubine Sun Ruowei the queen.
"Dear friends, you have different opinions. I asked me to find the deposed queen. I can't take a picture of this?" The emperor paced in the living room and said helplessly.
"Since the emperor..." Yang Rong was about to say.
"Report to the emperor, I have a way... Oh, Brother Yang Rong said first!" Yang Shiqi also wanted to say, and asked Yang Rong to speak first.
"The chief assistant said first!" Yang Rong was also very polite and said to Yang Shiqi with a smile.
"Everyone can say it, the chief assistant first, what can I do?" The emperor was thinking about something, looking around the living room, then looked at Yang Shiqi again and said with a hurried smile.
"I have a plan to have the best of both worlds!" Yang Shiqi smiled and looked at Concubine Sun, as if she said apologetically for what she said just now.
"Tell me quickly!" The emperor also looked at Concubine Sun and Yang Rong and said.
"Let Empress Hu Shanxiang take the initiative to give way, and then make Concubine Sun Ruowei the queen. Empress Hu Shanxiang is like this, and the emperor will be less worried. What about Your Majesty?" Yang Shiqi looked at the emperor and said with a smile.
"You two agree with this method?" Perhaps in line with the emperor's wishes, the emperor paused and walked on the chair toward Yang Rong. Yang Pu asked with a smile.
"We think this method is feasible!" Yang Rong looked at Concubine Sun and immediately smiled and said, Yang Pu agreed.
"Okay! The three of you, the chief assistant, conveyed my intention to Empress Hu Shanxiang. I am here to respect you, go and go quickly." The emperor said as he paced again, waiting for the three Yangs to find Hu Shanxiang's result. Concubine Sun sat on the side and looked at the paced emperor, feeling that the emperor was a little anxious. The time was not very long, and the three Yangs came back quickly and took the memorial to give way to the position. The emperor agreed to the matter. Emperor Xuande approved the memorial and gave Hu Shanxiang the "Jingci Immortal Master" and asked Hu Shanxiang to retreat to Chang'an Palace, and the treatment of servants were taken from the old days. This method was completed quickly, which was something that Concubine Sun could not have expected.
"The Empress Dowager's Imperial Decree: The birth mother of Crown Prince Zhu Qizhen, Sun Ruowei, the ceremony of enthroning the empress begins today! On the first day of the third month of the Xuande year, Hu Shanxiang was deposed as the empress. He chewed mixed praises and criticized the subjects of the palace for a few days. Concubine Sun sat in the living room. Wang Zhen suddenly read out the empress dowager's Imperial Decree one day after breakfast and respectfully handed over the imperial decree to Concubine Sun.
"Thank you Empress Dowager!" Concubine Sun knelt down and took the imperial edict and said.
"The Imperial Concubine is welcome!" Wang Zhen said with a smile. Concubine Sun stood up and went out of the living room of the East Palace and walked towards the place where the emperor appointed Concubine Sun as the queen. On March 1, 2011, the Empress Dowager issued an order to order the emperor to enthrone the empress and hold a ceremony for the enthronement. On this day, the emperor sent two ministers, Yang Shiqi, the chief minister of the cabinet, and Yang Rong, the member of the cabinet, to guide the dragon flags and phoenix chariots, surrounded by hundreds of people such as the palace maids and the inner guards and deacons, to come.
The Eastern Palace Pavilion welcomed Empress Sun into the palace. When he arrived at the Qianqing Palace, Xuande ascended the jade throne. Under the support of the palace maid, the queen wore yellow brocade clothes, colorful embroidered cloaks, golden phoenix coiled, pearls and jade heads, and was covered with pearls and treasures. She slowly walked to the hall. The Minister of Rites read the jade book, and the Chief Minister of Honglu Temple praised the ceremony, and guided the Queen to kneel down and obey the order. After reading the jade book, the Chief Minister of Honglu Temple guided the Queen to get up, the Grand Secretary of Wenhua Palace held the Queen’s treasure pawn, and the Grand Secretary of Wuying Palace held the Queen’s ribbon,
The director of Kunning Palace kneeled and handed over to the palace servants to the empress. The empress knelt down to the emperor and thanked him. Afterwards, the emperor retreated, the empress sat on the dragon throne and accepted the congratulations of the ministers. Then, Empress Sun entered the palace again and ceremonially and musical accompaniment. The ceremony ended here. After Concubine Sun completed all the procedures, the emperor asked Concubine Sun to move from the East Palace to the main palace. Concubine Sun made in-depth analysis of the emperor's adoption of Yang Rong and deposed Hu Shanxiang and appointed Concubine Sun Ruowei as the empress.
Zhang, the emperor made the imperial concubine who gave birth to the first prince as the empress of the palace, which naturally had a deeper and very important significance. He changed from a concubine to a formal child, further establishing his position as the eldest son. The little prince has unquestionable advantages in the future inheritance of the throne. Concubine Sun sat in a new position and had a brand new feeling, just like dreaming. Life may have to be left to fate. Concubine Sun faced the spacious space in the living room, thinking about the matter of the day after the enthronement:
...
"Long live my emperor, long live my life!" Three members of the cabinet: Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong, Yang Pu, walked into the living room of Concubine Sun in the East Palace and rushed to the emperor who was sitting in the main seat.
, kneeling and shouting.
"Your dear!" the emperor said with a smile.
"Thank you Emperor!" said San Yang.
"Greetings to the Queen, Queen Qiansheng, Qiansheng!" Three Yangs bowed to Concubine Sun, who was sitting in the guest seat.
"Everyone is calm!" Tan Juan said that Jian Yi talked about "The Story of Liu Rong", and he kept wandering around Concubine Sun's brain. This was not Liu Rong but Empress Dowager Dou's story. Jian Yi said that the purpose was to be human destiny, not himself but his destiny wrote history. The eunuch miscompiled the list, Dou Ji was able to enter the Dai Kingdom and had a history of the empress. Concubine Sun Ruowei entered the palace before Hu Shanxiang, but was squeezed into the position of the crown prince's legitimate wife by Hu Shanxiang, and later the position of empress was postponed. The fate of the two was tortuous and similar? People worked hard on their own.
The strength is one aspect, but ultimately determines the fate. It is difficult to achieve it based on one's own ability alone. Concubine Sun has read the book "Sun Bin's Art of War? Moon War": "The three conditions of the right time, the right place, and the right people are harmonious. Even if they are invincible, they will suffer. Translation: None of them has the advantage of the three conditions of the right time, the right place and the right people will have no advantage. Even if they win a battle, they will not be much better (there is one hundred and hurt the enemy, and they will suffer eighty). This matter makes sense. Concubine Sun was introduced to the palace by his wife Gui. How many times have he been
In the year, the time and place were not occupied. In other words, during the Yongle period, Emperor Zhu Di was the authoritative figure who had the final say. Without Zhu Di's recognition, there would be no time, and without the legitimate wife or the land. Zhu Di asked the raising palace. Concubine Sun was recognized by Zhu Zhanji and stayed in the palace, only Zhu Zhanji was the same. Hu Shanxiang was recommended by Emperor Zhu Di, and at that time he occupied the right time and place, but there was no factor in the harmony of Zhu Zhanji. At least, Zhu Zhanji was
If the main characters do not recognize them, they will lose people and factors. At that time, Concubine Sun tightly grasped a life-saving "straw", that is, she had a good relationship with Zhu Zhanji, and she would tightly grasp people and factors. Time flies too quickly, the social situation changes, and Hu Shanxiang was changed. The reason is that the Yongle period has passed, Zhu Di has passed away, and Hu Shanxiang has lost the two conditions of the right time and place. Concubine Sun smiled and said.
"Thank you Queen!" said San Yang.
"The prince is young, and Empress Sun has something to do, so she can study it with the three Yangs!" the emperor said with a smile.
"Abide by Your Majesty's will!" The three Yang Yi said in unison.
"You guys study, I still have something to do!" the emperor said and left.
"Heaven follows people's wishes, (Sun Ruowei) Wei becomes the queen!" The idiom explanation: God obeys people's wishes, which means that things develop in the same way as their wishes. Source: Zhang Guobin's "Handshirt". This is Yang Rong, who supported the Concubine Sun's sect, competed with Yang Shiqi, who opposed the Concubine Sun's sect. Yang Rong negotiated with his wife to inquire about the emperor, and carried out the act of deposing Hu Shanxiang and appointing Sun Ruowei as the queen. After a period of hard work, the matter was finally completed successfully. Yang Rong looked at Concubine Sun, who was proud of her, and also looked at Yang Shiqi with a decadent expression, and deliberately said something to Yang Shiqi.
"Yes! Empress Sun has to take charge of the Eastern Palace and the harem. If you need help, just give me instructions. We will definitely do whatever we want!" Yang Pu said with a smile.
"I became the queen. Thanks to the chief assistant and others, I have been very helpful. Thank you for your kindness!" said Concubine Sun.
"The morning mushrooms do not know the new moon, and the cicadas do not know the spring and autumn. This is the little year. The queen has nothing to do, so I will say goodbye!" Yang Shiqi finished speaking helplessly and left the living room.
"What do you mean?" Yang Pu asked in confusion.
"Let's go! Let's ask the chief assistant!" Yang Rong looked at Concubine Sun, pulled Yang Pu, and left with a proud look. Concubine Sun remembered the words Zhu Di asked for the rain during the Yongle period. Yang Rong said to Yang Shiqi, "I don't know the bacteria that are about to live and die in the morning, I don't know the darkness and dawn, spring and summer, summer and autumn, and summer and autumn, and I don't know that spring and autumn are short lives. At that time, Yang Shiqi's vision of victory was very short, and Hu Shanxiang was the victim of arranged marriages!
