Emperor Liu Yan of the Liu Dynasty returned to the morning court a month after he went on tour incognito. Except for preparing to start the triennial Enke examination and Hua Wuji's memorial to retire and return to his hometown, which was approved, nothing else happened.
The world is peaceful and stable, with good weather and good weather.
When Liu Yan lazily leaned on the dragon chair and listened to the various speeches of the ministers over the past month, he suddenly stood up lazily.
"If I want to establish a queen, what do you think?"
Liu Yan's calm words caused the originally somewhat dead palace to suddenly surge into motion, like a huge boulder suddenly thrown into a calm lake. The emperor once made it public in the court, and no one was allowed to mention the matter of establishing a queen.
After that, although everyone felt that it was unreasonable for a country not to have a queen who was the mother of the world, and it was not in line with the rules of the ancestors, but because of fear of Liu Yan, the ministers no longer recalled this matter.
Today, Liu Yan brought it up himself, but no one dared to speak.
"What? My dear friends, do you think I don't need a queen?" Liu Yan said, but his tone was displeased.
"My congratulations to the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!" All the ministers shouted long live, kowtowed three times and bowed nine times.
Liu Yan's face showed a sinister and evil smile.
"So good."
"I don't know which concubine the emperor plans to appoint as his queen. Please make it clear. I will prepare the matter for the appointment so that it can be announced to the world." Li Xunhuan stepped forward and asked.
"The person I want to be Li is not any concubine in the harem now, but a beautiful woman I met during this tour in private. I like her very much and think she is perfect to be an emperor."
"I don't know which family the woman the emperor is talking about is from."
"She is not a young lady, I just met him by chance."
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other. This queen must also pay attention to the laws of her ancestors.
First of all, the queen was finally established on the basis of the draft girls. The draft girls have strict limits. The ancestral legal system stipulates that the show girls are selected from the surname Liu and the surnames derived from Liu. Once every three years, the draft is issued by the Ministry of Household Affairs.
The twenty-four commanders of the Eight Banners, the garrison and flag officers of the Eight Banners in all provinces directly under the direct control of the provinces, and the flag officers appointed abroad will report the age of the women to be reported to the governor one by one by the counselor, assistant leader, knight riding school, chief reminder and clan leader.
, the memorial date is accurate, the writing is sent to the flag, and each has an inventory.
Secondly, the queen must come from the Liu family royal family and a family closely related to the royal family. The queens of the Liu Dynasty have shown that, except for a few who came from a foreign surname because of their father or the family's special achievements, they all came from the blood of Da Liu.
The candidate for the queen mentioned by Liu Yan was just a chance encounter, so it is very likely that this woman does not meet the above conditions.
"What's wrong? Why don't the Li Qing family continue to ask? If other members of the Qing family have any questions, feel free to ask."
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for the offence." At this moment, Jin Xiaolan, the consort of the Ninth Princess, came out.
"Oh? He's the consort? Do you have any questions?"
"The ancestral legal system stipulates that the queen must be selected first, then the concubine, and finally the queen, and she must be..."
"Ancestral legal system?" Liu Yan didn't seem to understand what he meant, so he asked again on purpose, and then said something chilling, "According to the ancestral legal system, I am not the one who is the emperor today. What the prince consort means is, according to the ancestral legal system."
