The first thousand one hundred and thirty-ninth chapters establish a reserve (five)
King An was the first to propose Princess Duanrou as the crown prince, and Princess Changping also expressed her support. Prince Fenyang, as Zongzheng of the clan, supported Princess Duanrou on behalf of all clan members.
The memorial jointly signed by the prince of Lu and the prince of Fujian and prince Ning to appoint a crown prince became the last straw for the ministers.
The fierce quarrels in the court were completely suppressed.
If the emperor wants to have a step-nephew, the prince of Lu and the prince of Min are all grown up and their biological fathers are dead. It is most suitable to choose one of the three of them. Now that all three of them have been memorialized, please stand up to Duan Rou.
The princess is now the heir apparent, what else can the ministers say?
Apart from being a girl, Princess Duanrou has nothing to fault...
In the final analysis, it depends on the emperor's will who he appoints as the crown prince. This is the empire of the Laosheng family. Pass it on to whomever you love!
At the New Year's court meeting in the fifteenth year of Jianye's reign, Chen Yushi and others jointly submitted a memorial again, asking for the establishment of a crown prince.
This time, no one objected fiercely.
Occasionally, some stubborn officials objected on the grounds that Da Qi had never established a woman as the crown prince. Xie Jun, the Minister of Rites, stood up and retorted sternly: "This is wrong! According to what you say, as long as the ancestors have no
If there is a precedent, this matter cannot be done. Then how can political affairs be changed? How can Daqi be prosperous and prosperous? As the saying goes, there is no establishment without breaking. Some rules must be observed, and some rules can be changed. "
Xiao Shangshu immediately answered: "What Xie Shangshu said is true. The rules set by Emperor Taizu when he founded the dynasty have undergone countless changes over the past several dynasties. How can we stick to the rules forever?"
"Princess Duanrou is smart and has outstanding talents and learning. Her performance in the court in the past few years has also been excellent, and she is worthy of being the crown prince." Mr. Zhao Ge also opened his mouth.
Even General Yin and General Chu, who rarely open their mouths in the court, also expressed their opinions: "I second the proposal. Princess Duanrou is outstanding and outstanding, which is obvious to all. Besides Princess Duanrou, who else is worthy of being the heir apparent?"
"I also second the proposal. Da Qi has an unprecedented female general, and there is an imperial concubine, so why not!"
Finally, the chief assistant, Mr. Lu Ge, finally spoke: "I respectfully request the emperor to issue an edict to appoint Princess Duanrou as the crown prince!"
The chief assistant is the head of the civil servants. Mr. Lu Ge has served as the chief assistant for more than 20 years in three dynasties. His prestige among civil servants is unmatched. When Mr. Lu Ge opened his mouth, all the ministers echoed in unison: "I respectfully invite you."
The emperor decrees that Princess Duanrou will be appointed as the crown prince!"
More than a hundred people opened their mouths to appeal together, and the sound was so powerful that it resounded inside and outside the Jinluan Hall.
A look of satisfaction flashed in the emperor's eyes, and he said slowly: "Since all the ministers agree with the proposal, I will order someone to draw up a decree, appoint Princess Duanrou as the heir apparent, and announce it to the world."
All the officials said in unison again: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
A Luo stood beside the emperor, facing the officials. Seeing this scene, she didn't feel too happy in her heart.
All the officials sincerely obeyed the emperor, the supreme imperial power, and it was a helpless act that they could not resist.
In their hearts, they still reject and resist her.
However, it is always something to be happy about after finally taking the most crucial step.
"Duan Rou," Sheng Hong called his beloved daughter by her title in front of all the ministers: "From today on, you are the crown prince of Da Qi. You must remember to be appropriate in your words and deeds, be generous to others, and be diligent in studying and governing. Only then will you be worthy of your honor."
My expectations for you are worthy of the respect and love of all officials."
The eighteen-year-old Princess Duanrou looked calm and confident, and respectfully held her hands in her hands: "My daughter will obey the teachings of my father!"
Standing at the bottom of the hundred officials, Brother You was participating in the Great Court Meeting for the first time. He stood far away in the corner, quietly raising his head and looking at A Luo's back, feeling a sense of pride and pride.
That beautiful girl worth more than ten million is the crown prince of Da Qi and the future empress of Da Qi.
How lucky he is to be able to work side by side with her as husband and wife in the future!
…
The emperor's decree to establish a crown prince was conveyed to the harem in the shortest possible time.
"The Empress is very happy," Xiang Hui reported with a cheerful smile: "The ministers have requested the decree, and the Emperor has decreed that His Highness the Princess will be crown prince. After today, the announcement will be announced to the world."
Congyu Fuyu and others were all overjoyed and congratulated them all: "The Queen is so happy!"
For such a happy event, even though Xie Mingxi has a deep palace, he was also smiling with joy at this time, and said with a smile: "Pass this palace's order, all the female officials and chambermaids in the palace today will be generously rewarded."
Xianghui and others smiled and thanked each other.
After hearing the news, Chief Gu Shan hurried over, his face beaming with joy: "Great! We have finally waited for this day!"
From the day he learned that the empress intended to make A Luo the crown prince, this worry hung in Gu Shanchang's mind like a boulder. It was tormenting him all the time.
Gu Shan has been waiting for this day for several years!
Gu Shanchang, who was overjoyed, couldn't say anything else for a moment, and kept saying "Great" over and over again. His eyes actually flashed with water.
Xie Mingxi took out her handkerchief, wiped the corners of Gu Shanchang's eyes, and smiled softly: "Master, you should laugh at such a happy event."
Gu Shan hummed, took the handkerchief, and wiped the corners of Xie Mingxi's eyes.
Xie Mingxi: "..."
It was only at this moment that Xie Mingxi realized that she was also crying with excitement and surprise.
The master and disciple looked at each other and laughed in unison.
"You are so awkward, you always have to show off your strength." Gu Shanchang laughed and teased: "It is human nature to cry for joy at such a big happy event. No one will laugh at you."
Xie Mingxi laughed softly and said: "My temper will never change in this life. Please take care of me, Master."
Clever words and charming words!
Gu Shan smiled and rolled his eyes at Xie Mingxi.
…
The good news spread throughout the harem. Concubine Mei, who had not left Hanxiang Palace for a long time, could not sit still. She immediately came to Jiaofang Palace and met Xie Mingxi. She grabbed Xie Mingxi's hand and asked in a trembling voice: "Queen, is your Majesty really going to leave?"
Has A Luo been established as the crown prince? No one in the court objects to it?"
Xie Mingxi's mood has calmed down a lot, and she nodded with a smile: "Yes, the emperor has issued an edict, and no one in the court has any objection. This edict will be announced to the world tomorrow."
Ah Luo was really made the crown prince!
Concubine Mei wanted to say something, but tears already burst out of her eyes.
She has a weak temperament, and it is common for her to shed tears. The tears she shed at this time were of great joy.
"I didn't expect, I really didn't expect that such a day would actually come." Mei Taifei choked and said, "A Luo actually became the crown prince of Da Qi. I really didn't expect..."
Xie Mingxi said softly: "As long as you have the will, is there anything in this world that you can't succeed at?"
Mrs. Mei nodded while crying.
Xie Mingxi hesitated for a moment, then took the initiative to pick up the handkerchief and wiped Concubine Mei's tears. Concubine Mei was also a little surprised and glanced at Xie Mingxi subconsciously.
Their eyes met, and the estrangement between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law disappeared at this moment.
