Mr. Xiahou's proposal was that although Hongzhu was already the princess, her identity was still lacking. Apart from her role in rescuing the princess, she had no other merits, so she could be named one of the four concubines first.
However, Dao disagreed. Dao felt that he would only have one woman in his harem in his life, and he should directly make Hongzhu his queen.
Yu Ling Palace, front hall.
"...Your Majesty, I know how you feel, but this is really against the rules. If Your Majesty wants to make Miss Mo the queen, you can slowly increase her position after Miss Mo gives birth to an heir. In this way, who will be the minister in the court?"
I can't say anything." Mr. Xiahou said earnestly.
Dao shook his head apologetically to the old lady Xiahou: "I want to give Hongzhu the best, and I can't let her be wronged. Moreover, if I accept a concubine, there is no guarantee that other ministers will not be tempted to let me continue to accept concubines, or even establish a queen.
.So, I decided to make it clear to everyone once and for all that in this life, I will only have one woman, Hongzhu, and she will be my queen."
"..." Mr. Xiahou looked at Dao's stubborn face and opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to refute. When he was anxious, he turned to look at Baili Wushang and Yun Jingchu beside him, "Prince Kang, Princess Kang, please help me.
Please advise Your Majesty."
Yun Jingchu hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to speak.
She felt that what Mr. Xiahou and Dao said were both reasonable, but they just had different standpoints.
According to the education she received in modern times, she would have approved of the sword practice with both hands. However, considering the many rules of the royal family, what Mr. Xiahou said was right.
Yun Jingchu frowned and thought for a moment: "Dao, if you directly seal Hongzhu as your queen, are you able to make all the officials say nothing and raise their hands in approval? If you can, then do as you do. If not, I suggest
It's better to do as the old man said."
"Yes, Princess Kang is right." Mr. Xiahou nodded repeatedly.
He was afraid that all the officials in the court would object, so he insisted on doing this. Otherwise, if her grandson finally agreed to become a queen, it would be too late for her to be happy, so why should she object?
Over there, Dao was a little hesitant. To be honest, he couldn't guarantee it. Not only could he not guarantee it, he also knew that at least half of the officials would oppose it.
"...But, I don't want to wrong Hongzhu." Dao looked at Yun Jingchu and said slowly, as if seeking Yun Jingchu's support.
"Time is urgent now. The most important thing is to settle your affairs and let Brother Jiu come back after hearing the news. Moreover, you said that you will not wrong Hongzhu. If you let her take the lower position despite the objections of hundreds of officials, she will feel sad in her heart.
There will be knots, so it’s better to let nature take its course. Of course, if you can convince all the officials in a short period of time and get them to support the matter of sealing the queen, then you will have the best of both worlds." Yun Jingchu said with a serious face.
.
"Well, yes, I agree with Princess Kang's words." Mr. Xiahou nodded with satisfaction.
Dao thought for a while, then nodded heavily, "...Okay, I understand."
After a moment of silence, Dao turned to his grandfather and prayed, "Grandpa, can you, uncle, and cousin help me with this? Help me convince the officials."
"..." Xiahou God's eyes widened in surprise. He blinked for a long time, his beard curled up, and he couldn't help but cursed, "You stinky boy."
This is the first time that Mr. Xiahou used this title after Dao ascended the throne.
Dao was not annoyed at all, he just looked at Mr. Xiahou pleadingly.
