Chapter 698: Fairy Card Drawing Machine (28)
A few months later.
Emperor Huiyang once again gave birth to two more daughters.
Many people sneered at this, privately discussing that he had no son, and that no matter how hard he struggled, it would be in vain.
Some princes in the clan even started to make moves.
Running to adopt his son to him.
After all, he has been sterilized, and all the pregnant concubines gave birth to daughters. There is still no son to inherit the throne. If he does not adopt the throne from the clan, is it possible that his daughter can succeed? Even if he really thinks so, it is impossible for the clan to do so.
Agree, it is even less likely that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty would agree.
Now let's see whose son can be adopted as his heir.
inherited his throne.
The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were also very disappointed at this time and no longer had any hope for Emperor Huiyang to have a son. They also began to cooperate with the clan and urged Emperor Huiyang to accept a male son.
Establish a prince early and stabilize the country's foundation.
Less than two years have passed since the chaos caused by the late emperor's failure to establish a prince, and the last time it was just a rebellion among the princes. If there is another accident this time, it will most likely be a rebellion among the kings and vassals, which will be even more harmful.
In the eyes of everyone.
Emperor Huiyang would definitely have to compromise in the end.
After all, he had no choice.
If you don’t have a son, can you become a son?
However, Ding Yun saw Emperor Huiyang's reluctance through the information channels obtained by Maguka Xianshou.
As well as some private initiatives and another possibility.
…
The back hall of Kunning Palace.
After all the eunuchs and maids were sent out, and only Emperor Huiyang, the Queen and his second daughter Princess Pingde were left in the entire hall, Princess Pingde said firmly again:
"Father, are you really willing?
Are you really willing to choose a descendant of the clan who has no blood relationship with you to inherit the throne? I still said what I said before, I want to be the crown princess. If I can successfully inherit the throne, is it no better than choosing a stepson to inherit the throne? "
"Stop talking, what can you do if you don't want to give in?
There has been no such thing as a crown princess in the past dynasties. What's the use of you and me? Let alone me, even if Emperor Shenwu is resurrected and says that he wants to establish a crown princess, I am afraid that all the civil and military officials of the dynasty and the clan elders will not agree!
You are just wishful thinking..."
It would be a lie to say that he was not moved, but Emperor Huiyang knew better that if he wanted to make his daughter the crown princess, he was completely going against the whole world and the thousand-year-old ethics.
Except for his wife and several daughters.
I'm afraid no one will agree.
"Oh, Pingde, I know you are unwilling to give in, but the world is like this, and there is nothing you can do about it!"
The queen also sighed helplessly and persuaded her daughter.
"Father, Queen and Queen, can you not deny me and admit defeat before you even try?
Isn’t it true that among the people, there are no female households?
Are there no people looking for a son-in-law?
Those who recruit a son-in-law and establish a daughter-in-law family are not the same as the ones who can be the masters of the family. Isn't our princess's recruitment of a son-in-law the same as recruiting a son-in-law among the people? It's just that the child does not have our surname. But as long as I want to, it is completely easy to let the child change his surname.
Isn't this closer than those from outsiders?
When the time comes, you make me the crown prince and your grandson the crown grandson, and I will act as a transitional agent. Then there will be no problem. It is not uncommon for people to have their grandsons inherit the family business when their heirs are extinct!"
If Princess Pingde had no idea, how could she enter the palace again and unswervingly want to be the crown princess?
She was just betting that her father would be tempted.
No matter how distant the bloodline of my grandson is.
That is still closer than the bloodline of another branch.
However, Emperor Huiyang was still shaking his head at this time:
"You are too naive. How can the royal family be compared with ordinary people? Do you know how much energy I spent on saving the lives of your newborn sisters? Fortunately, they are girls.
If it were a man, it would only be more dangerous.
He might even be dead.
Just like the late emperor's thirteenth prince.
Your idea sounds good, and it may be possible for ordinary people to realize it, but those people in the clan who have ideas will not agree. They are waiting for me to eliminate the heir so that they can inherit the throne. Besides, you just killed the prince-in-law not long ago.
, he will make his child the grandson of the emperor.
Do you feel safe?
They will think that they are descendants of the Prince Consort's family.
Or do you think they are descendants of our family?"
"Father, why can't you understand what I mean? I said that I would make one of my two sons the emperor's grandson. It was just a temporary measure to make some ministers reluctantly accept me as the emperor.
Princess.
As for what happens next, it can naturally change.
It’s not like I can’t reproduce!
Besides, as long as you have me as the Crown Princess, even if something happens to me in the future, don’t you still have many daughters who can continue to be the Crown Princess? The most difficult thing in the world is the beginning. With the first Crown Princess,
Latecomers will naturally be more likely to accept the second and third ones!
Father, no one is more suitable to be the Crown Princess than me.
Because my consort is dead.
I killed him with my own hands, so I will never be influenced by the Prince Consort’s family. You can rest assured that I will say this, please think about it again!”
Princess Pingde also knew that it would be difficult for her to get a positive reply from her father immediately, so after showing all her advantages, she simply took a retreat in order to advance.
After saying that, he stood up, bowed, and left.
After she left, Emperor Huiyang and his wife negotiated and discussed for a long time. In the end, they were unwilling to gain the upper hand and decided to fight. Since everyone wanted him to be extinct and inherit the throne from him, he insisted on taking the throne.
Keep it in your own hands, give it to your daughter and don’t give it to anyone else.
However, although he had this idea, he could not implement it immediately because he knew very well how great the resistance would be, so of course he had to make preparations in advance, win over some people, and control some forces and forces.
If you are not prepared at all, just act recklessly.
That doesn't guarantee failure.
So the next step was a tug-of-war. While Emperor Huiyang was dealing with the clan and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, he also made private promises to win over some people with no clear preference, regain military power, and weaken the clear conservative forces.
To prepare for the establishment of a crown princess in the future.
And it takes three years to prepare.
In the past three years, Ding Yun successively won the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maid card, the Orchid Grass Fairy card, and the Lightning Mother card. At the end of the third month after she drew the Lightning Mother card, Emperor Huiyang finally felt that he
The preparations were sufficient and it was formally mentioned in the court meeting.
That's when it's time to go to court.
He directly said that he would make Princess Pingde the Crown Princess.
After the ministers were shocked by the news, of course they were all very emotional and said no. They did not agree. This was a chicken Sichen and violated the ethics.
Wait until the news comes out from the palace.
As a result, the entire capital fell into chaos.
Not only the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, but also most of the distinguished clans were fiercely opposed to it, and even the scholars in the Imperial College gathered to fight.
He even asked for the emperor to be abolished and re-established!
On the contrary, ordinary people are quite indifferent.
Chapter completed!
