"So that's it." Liu Zhang nodded after hearing this. There was nothing to doubt. After all, what Chen Xi said was reasonable and reasonable. "Since the emperor is in trouble, why not invite Wan Nian to come with us for verification."
It's not that Liu Zhang had any special thoughts about Princess Wannian, it was just that the Han system stipulated that the eldest princess had certain powers in this regard. Although if a powerful minister was in power, the eldest princess's words would be the same as not being spoken.
It's just that this is a process after all, and compared to others, Liu Zhang and Liu Bei are members of the clan with the surname Liu after all, so they still need to pay more attention to this aspect.
"In that case, I will then go to the North Palace to invite Princess Wannian." Chen Xi nodded and said. Liu Zhang and others obviously have something to say with Liu Bei. Liu Bei doesn't mind Chen Xi being here. I'm afraid, Liu Zhang and others
There are some things that people find difficult to say.
"Does Wannian still live in the Beigong?" Liu Zhang sighed. It has been more than ten years, but he did not expect that Wannian has not left the palace. "When the time comes, I will ask Chen Sinong to send my regards."
Liu Yu, on the other hand, leaned on his crutch and looked at Liu Bei and Chen Xi silently without saying anything. What to say about Princess Wannian? He also knew the reason, but because he knew it, he had no good solution, unless Wannian
Willing to marry, to a descendant of an official under Jiuqing.
You must know that in the era when the Han Dynasty was very powerful, even if the eldest princess married, she would always marry a prince. However, because of this practice, most eldest princesses in the Han Dynasty were arrogant and rude.
Even the famous and lustful princesses in ancient times mainly came from the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty. Compared with the princesses of the Tang Dynasty who were obviously restrained, the princesses of the Han Dynasty had power clearly comparable to that of princes and even princes and kings.
This also led to the fact that the princesses of the Han Dynasty basically ruined their reputations during the prosperous times. It was better to say that they were marrying princes than to marry people. Even in the Han and Tang Dynasties, there were incidents where princes were unwilling to marry princesses.
This shows the lethality of the princesses of the Han and Tang Dynasties. Now that the imperial power has fallen, Princess Wannian will no longer have the power of her predecessors. Naturally, the emperor will not forcefully choose a husband for his daughter. Naturally, Wannian will be thrown into the trap.
aside.
This is also the reason why even today, Wan Nian is seventeen years old, and still has no family. None of the princes are willing to marry Princess Wan Nian. In the past, even if you married an ancestor, you could at least climb the dragon and follow the phoenix. Now,
With the decline of imperial power, why bring an ancestor back to your family? There is no problem with your brain.
On the other hand, those officials with less than 2,000 dan still have some coveting ideas, but Princess Wannian herself is clean and has not made any mistakes. Why should she take the blame for her predecessors and make herself inferior? So in anger, she has not done anything until now.
Not married.
It was true that Liu Xie had the intention to pimp Wan Nian back then, but unfortunately Liu Xie was really incompetent. Wan Nian also secretly coveted that young man with both moral character, talent and appearance, but he was not interested. Liu Xie's ability was completely unable to deal with these people.
Or should I say, these people are all human beings, and beauties are everywhere. To get on Liu Xie’s broken ship for a princess who doesn’t know the details, forget it. Without a princess, no one will care if I go home and marry two pairs of singers.
, can you still live if you marry a princess?
So the longer I delay, the harder it will be to get married. In the end, as the eldest princess, she just gave up on herself. I won't find anyone to marry. I will go back to Beigong to recuperate and improve my moral and wisdom. No one will bother me.
"Oh, it's no problem. I'll go to the Weiyang back hall first." Chen Xi said calmly, bringing the topic back.
Chen Xi could tell from Liu Zhang's words that although Liu Zhang valued the rules and procedures of the Han Dynasty, he really didn't take the eldest princess Liu Tong seriously. But that's right. For those present, even if the other party is the eldest princess, she is also a junior.
And she is the kind of eldest princess who the late emperor did not leave enough capital for.
Although the Weiyang Palace is very large, the few people were not too slow and soon arrived at the Weiyang Back Hall. Cao Cao and Sun Ce came to greet them, but at this time Chen Xi actually saw Yang Biao and Zhong Yao inside.
Looking at the situation in the palace, it was obvious that Yang Biao did not say anything strange.
"I've met Yang Situ." Chen Xi bowed slightly. To be honest, he was not much lower than the other party in terms of official position and title. As for power, he was a few steps ahead of the other party. However, because of Yang Biao's white hair, he saluted first.
"Marquis Chen, there is no need to be polite. I don't know how Liu Taiwei plans to deal with this situation." Yang Biao did not ask Liu Bei, but asked Chen Xi directly, presumably knowing that Chen Xi's answer was Liu Bei's answer.
"Let's put it on hold until the princes, kings, state ministers, three princes, nine ministers, and officials with a rank of two thousand stone are all here, and then we can talk about the throne of the emperor. Otherwise, we are just talking nonsense." Chen Xi said calmly,
Yang Biao nodded silently and didn't ask any more questions.
In fact, Chen Xi's words have clearly informed Yang Biao that this is just stalling for time. It takes a lot of time just to summon the state pastors from various states. As for the so-called three officials and nine ministers, officials with a rank of two thousand stones, are you kidding me?
.
Although there is no accurate answer as to what exactly happened in the Chang'an Rebellion the night before, judging from the news Yang Biao has received now, it seems that the royalists had dragged down all the main officials of Chang'an before his death.
, there are not many people left dead.
It's just that Yang Biao has no way to talk to Chen Xi about this matter now. It should be said that even if Chen Xi's words are just deceiving, he doesn't have the strength to argue with Chen Xi. However, relative to the current situation, there is a certain degree of shelving the position of emperor first.
principle.
"In that case, I won't say much and go ahead to keep vigil for the emperor." Yang Biao bowed and saluted Liu Yu, Liu Zhang, and Liu Bei. After the three of them returned the salute, Yang Biao replied and slowly stepped away.
"Xuan Degong, I'm afraid Yuan Jiujiu will come to Chang'an soon." Chen Xi sighed and said, "Yang Situ needs support now."
Liu Bei didn't understand what it meant before, but Chen Xi understood it instantly as soon as he mentioned it, but Yuan Shu came as soon as he came, it's not a big deal anyway.
When Liu Bei and Chen Xi entered the back hall of Weiyang, their faces were calm, while Zhang Song and Yan Yan were obviously shocked. It was the first time for the two of them to see such a large number of internal Qi separated generals and spiritually gifted generals.
Civil officials gathered together.
"Zichu, and Zizhong." Zhang Song looked at the people in the back hall with surprised expressions, especially when he saw Liu Ba and Zheng Du mixed in among them, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"Ziqiao, long time no see." Liu Ba and Zheng Du saluted Zhang Song with calm expressions. As possessors of spiritual talents, it is difficult for their will to be shaken, not to mention the choices they made.
You will be shaken by meeting old friends.
Then Liu Ba and Zheng Du both walked out of the crowd and bowed to Liu Zhang and saluted, and Liu Zhang returned the salute with a slightly ugly look on his face. From then on, if we meet again on the battlefield in the future, there will be no mention of the old master.
In the past, Liu Zhang would not have cared about these civil servants who ran away and defected to others. But now that he has become aware, he will know what is more important and what is more serious. Regarding Liu Ba, Zheng Du's ability will also be clear.
Cognition, so he looks hesitant.
Just like if they were just making a living, it would be good for Liu Zhang if people like Liu Ba and Zheng Du ran away. But if there was a gap in their hearts, then people like Liu Ba and Zheng Du would be the essence of what they wanted.
"I have never seen such a large number of civil servants and generals in Sichuan and Sichuan. When I saw them today, I realized that they have always been sitting in a well and looking at the sky." Zhang Song said with a sigh, and then looked at Pang Tong with shining eyes. He found a character uglier than him.
.
Pang Tong pulled his pure black Confucian robe inexplicably. He was a little confused as to why Zhang Song kept staring at him like this, but the other person was so ugly, Pang Tong thought silently.
"Wenhe, Ziyang and I are going to pick up someone?" Chen Xi greeted Jia Xu and Liu Ye.
"I need to keep a vigil here. Zichuan, you and Wen He should go there." Liu Ye shook his head and said. After all, he is also a member of the royal family with the surname Liu. It's okay for others to pretend to fool the ghosts, but he also needs to show some moral integrity.
"Wen He, follow me to pick someone up." Chen Xi said to Jia Xu. Jia Xu stood up with a sad face and slowly exited the rear hall of Weiyang.
"Okay, we're out now, stop pretending." After leaving the door, Chen Xi patted Jia Xu and said.
Jia Xu glanced at Chen Xi and asked, "Have you decided on the posthumous title of the late emperor?"
"How do you think of a posthumous title or a preferred posthumous title?" Chen Xi asked.
"It is indeed appropriate to face worries and difficulties in the country, but considering what he has done, you would actually give him a preferred posthumous title." Jia Xu said with a hint of curiosity.
"Well, I have always thought that half of the reason why the emperor did not do well is because of his subordinates. If you give him a bad posthumous title, doesn't it mean that all of us are not good at it? To be honest, apart from being cold-blooded by nature,
Some of them, others have more meaning of being deceived." Chen Xi sighed and said, "What's more, if a young man dies young, it is not good to give him a bad posthumous title."
Jia Xu nodded after hearing this. What Chen Xi said did make sense.
[I now deeply suspect that the Weiyang fire was caused by us. Ninety-nine percent of the scholars did not want to burn the emperor to death. They just used this method to force the royalist party to attack the clan in advance. It happened that the emperor was burned to death during the meeting. In this case
I really can't do it by giving him a bad posthumous title." Chen Xi said helplessly.
"Then who are you going to pick up now?" Jia Xu followed Chen Xi and asked as he walked, "Generally speaking, the roles you can pick up are not ordinary roles."
"Well, I have found a person suitable for regent and am going to take him over." Chen Xi thought for a while and said, I have to say that Liu Tong, the Ten Thousand Years Princess, is indeed very suitable for regent from every angle.
"Regent?" Jia Xu raised an eyebrow, "Don't say such nonsense."
"You'll know when you get there." Chen Xi said calmly.
