Chapter 748

He sighed: "There are rules in the ancestral system. Establishing a son is not based on virtue, and establishing a son is based on honor. Your majesty, you are a Ming emperor. How can you abolish the main concubine as a concubine and support the side concubine as a descendant?"

Finally got to the point.

Zhao Yuanjing smiled with his lips curled up: "I don't quite agree with this sentence. Since Mr. Jin is familiar with history books, he should know that there are records in historical records. The queen is the heir, and Xin is the heir. You said that King Zhou died because he favored Si, so if King Zhou’s father passed the throne to the more virtuous eldest son instead of the legitimate son, would such a thing happen? ?”

Mr. Jin was stunned and speechless.

He laughed and said, "The Holy One is an eloquent talent."

"Don't dare to do it." Zhao Yuanjing said lightly, "If Mr. Jin wants to hear it, I can give countless similar examples. Later generations always say that beauty is a disaster and push men's faults onto women. I think this is a bit too much. Shameless."

Mr. Jin's face suddenly became a little embarrassed.

He frowned and said, "But the three cardinal principles of Confucianism, the five constant principles, the four dimensions, the five ethics, and the eight virtues, shouldn't these be followed? The sage is the son of heaven, and he should set an example for the world. , just abolish the sons and establish the concubines?"

Zhao Yuanjing picked his ear, and said casually: "Old Jin's words are a bit unfair to me, and I was also forced. If you are dissatisfied, why not go to King Qin? Oh, he was already on the road yesterday, heading for the land of Lingnan. If the old man rides a fast horse, he can still catch up."

Mr. Jin suddenly felt a little blocked.

This is true.

The emperor had already planned to make Jin Yao the queen, but who knew that the king of Qin was killed halfway, and forced the emperor to retreat with a million soldiers, all the officials were silent, and forced to support the side concubine to ascend to the throne.

"The Holy Majesty really trusts King Qin too much." He said sullenly.

Zhao Yuanjing sighed: "Who said it wasn't. But the matter has come to this point, and I can't do anything about it. Concubine Yun has already become a queen, informed her ancestors, held a canonization ceremony, and her name was written on the jade. It's a done deal, and it can't be changed. "

Mr. Jin hesitated to speak.

Zhao Yuanjing raised his eyebrows: "Could it be that Mr. Jin always came to persuade me to abolish the empress and establish a concubine?"

Mr. Jin was startled, and hurriedly waved his hands: "No, no, the old man has no such intention."

"I also said that Mr. Jin is a literati who has always followed the rules of etiquette and law. He will definitely not come to encourage me to do such a thing."

"..." Mr. Jin was completely speechless at this moment.

He came in a huff and left in despair.

The Jin family has nothing to say.

As for Jin Lan, although he has a close relationship with the emperor, there is still a difference between emperor and minister. He also felt bad about his sister being a noble concubine, but the matter had come to this point, and even his grandfather was beaten back, so he rationally kept his mouth shut.

The Jin family and the courtiers all acquiesced to this matter, but there was one person who couldn't feel reconciled.

That is the Empress Dowager.

Her favorite youngest son, Zhao Shu, lost everything because of supporting Yundai to be the queen, and was sent to exile in the poor mountains and rivers in the south of Lingnan.

If Yundai just died like this, that's all.

But Yun Dai did not die.

When the Empress Dowager thought of her youngest son, her love for Yun Dai turned into hatred.

Others don't know the inside story, but as the son of King Qin and the emperor's grandmother, how can she not know.

Because of Yun Dai, the emperor stalemate for a long time and refused to take the throne, causing many disturbances. That's all right, but I didn't expect that King Qin would also be harmed.

This is simply disaster, okay?

The empress dowager loves Yun Dai, and she can't tolerate her both charming the emperor and burdening the king of Qin.
