- Chapter 424: One Queen and Sixth Concubine
Ministers like Chen Xilie took the emperor's canonization of the harem very seriously, because it was related to the state and the order of the palace and should not be underestimated.
Zhang Xuan was "blocked" at the entrance of the palace and couldn't help but smile secretly.
It seems that if he does not complete the harem ennoblement, Chen Xilie and others will not let him go to the back garden to gather with the girls.
"Chen Zaifu, will you allow me to take a long-term approach?" Zhang Xuan let out a sigh of relief.
Chen Xilie's face turned solemn, "Your Majesty, the canonization of the harem and the emperor is related to the state and the order of the inner court Please ask your majesty to issue an edict immediately so that I can arrange the canonization ceremony to ensure the peace of the harem."
Chen Xilie and others really can¡¯t wait. Because starting from Chang'an, they had repeatedly advised Zhang Xuan to confer the title of concubine in the harem, but Zhang Xuan has been unable to issue the edict. As of today, the new dynasty has been established for two months, and its capital has been moved to Luoyang, the capital of China. If he continues not to be canonized, it will lose the dignity of the court and the emperor.
Yang Guozhong, Zhang Xun, Guo Yi, Gongsun Liang, Pei Mian and Yan Zhenqing all bowed down together and said, "Your Majesty, please issue an edict!"
Zhang Xuan sighed and hesitated, "That's fine, I'll issue the edict right now."
Zhang Xuan turned around and returned to the palace.
Chen Xilie and others quickly followed.
Entering Zhang Xuan¡¯s imperial study, Chen Xilie and others lined up on both sides, standing in silence, waiting for Zhang Xuan¡¯s order.
Zhang Xuan looked around at everyone, paused for a moment, and then said loudly, "Chen Zaifu, draft an edict: canonize Cui Ying as queen¡ª¡ª"
When Zhang Xuan said this, he hesitated a little. In his heart, the status of his women is actually equal, and he is unwilling to cause any rift in the relationship between the women. However, due to the etiquette and laws of this era, he has to canonize them according to the etiquette and laws. In this way, the women There is a level gap and invisible barriers between them.
This is the key reason why Zhang Xuan has not made up his mind to canonize the harem.
He was silent for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice. "Canonize Su Hudong as Hui Fei, Wanchun as Ning Fei, Li Tengkong as Shu Fei, Yang Yuqing as Li Fei, Yang Yulian as Hui Fei, Fengming as Yi Fei"
After Zhang Xuan finished speaking, Chen Xilie¡¯s gray brows immediately wrinkled. He stood up and bowed down, "Your Majesty, according to the etiquette system, the inner palace has a concubine, a concubine, a concubine, a concubine, a concubine, a concubine, and a beauty There are certain ranking regulations. Your majesty canonizes the six concubines at the same time. It is not in line with etiquette." Systemplease make some slight adjustments, Your Majesty."
The concubines in the emperor's harem were also divided into grades. The hierarchy was strict, not much worse than the civil and military general system of the imperial court. Zhang Xuan canonized one queen and six concubines in this way. Obviously, in the eyes of Chen Xilie and others, it was a bit inappropriate.
But Zhang Xuan has made up his mind. There is only one queen, so there is no other choice but Cui Ying. Except for Cui Ying, Zhang Xuan decided to make them all concubines, giving them equal status. So as not to hurt the harmony between them.
In fact, Zhang Xuan was a little worried. Since the day Zhang Xuan ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor. The girls all began to secretly "take their seats", automatically distinguishing between high and low.
Cui Ying is of course the head of the harem. Su Hudong is the princess of Huihe, of high birth, and Huihe sent troops to help Zhang Xuan conquer the world and made great achievements, so Su Hudong is ranked after Cui Ying. As for Wanchun, Princess Li Tang, and one of the two wives that Zhang Xuanming was marrying into the palace, it was only natural that she should be ranked behind Su Hudong.
Li Tengkong also has the title of County Lady, ranking fourth. Third Sister Yang entered first. Ranked fifth. Yang Yulian ranked sixth, and Hua Nuer felt that she was at the bottom of the list.
Zhang Xuan looked at Chen Xilie and smiled, "Chen Zaifu, the so-called etiquette system is also set by the emperor. I am the king, and my dynasty is newly established, then. I will set new rules for the harem today. Increase to the sixth concubine, rank. The ranks are the same, no distinction between superiority and inferiority. That's it."
Although Zhang Xuan was smiling, his voice was extremely firm.
Chen Xilie was startled and looked at each other with Yang Guozhong and others. None of them dared to openly disobey Zhang Xuan's wishes, so they all nodded in agreement.
??And in fact. Was Zhang Xuan right? As the emperor of the new dynasty, he had the power to establish new rules and etiquette, and he did not necessarily have to follow Li Tang's etiquette. It's just that in order to avoid unnecessary wrangling, Zhang Xuan followed Li Tang's system on many irrelevant matters and did not make any systematic updates.
But it will be a matter of time. After Zhang Xuan pacified the barbarians and freed up time and energy, he would definitely redefine the political etiquette, social system and legal system of the Chinese dynasty.
"Your Majesty, please also ennoble the emperor and his daughter." Zhang Xun stepped forward again.
In fact, Zhang Xuan only has one son now, two twin daughters, both of whom are still under one year old. Xiao Zhangqian is too young, and it is too early to enthrone the East Palace at this time, so he can only be crowned king for the time being.
openXuan had already known about this. After listening to Zhang Xun's words, he nodded and said loudly, "Draft an edict: canonize Zhang Qian as Prince Duan. Canonize Zhang Ruoran as Princess of Anguo, and Zhang Hanyan as Princess of Dingguo. There is no settlement for the time being."
Originally, both the emperor and the princess had towns and fiefs, but because Zhang Xuan's child was too young, Chen Xilie and others felt that it was very appropriate for Zhang Xuan to ennoble him like this. Anyway, titles and titles are likely to change at any time, so there is no need to be serious at this time.
Chen Xilie and others were about to accept the order and leave. The imperial court immediately issued a formal edict of canonization and announced it to the world. However, Zhang Xuan said calmly, "The edict is proposed: Zhang Xiuxiu will be canonized as the eldest princess of Ning State and will have 2,000 households in the city. Entitlement Li Susu is the princess of Zhaoyang County, and Xiao Shisanlang is the Xiaoyao Marquis, with 2,000 households living in the town."
Chen Xilie and others were shocked.
Chen Xilie also knew that Zhang Xiuxiu was the adopted daughter of Zhang Xuan's mother, the Empress Dowager Liu. She was now the young lady of the Cui family and had a good relationship with Zhang Xuan. Since she is the emperor's adopted sister - and Zhang Xiuxiu is also the queen's sister-in-law, it is not an exaggeration for the emperor to canonize an eldest princess because of his multiple feelings.
But who is this Li Susu? The emperor canonized him as a county king at once and gave him 2,000 households in the town! And who is Thirteenth Xiao? Isn¡¯t it outrageous to be granted the title of Marquis for no reason?
"ThisYour Majesty" Chen Xilie, Yang Guozhong, Gongsun Liang and others looked at each other in confusion, and were about to speak out to object, but saw Zhang Xun and Guo Yi winking at them secretly, and they suppressed their words.
Zhang Xuan glanced at Chen Xilie and others without explaining anything. He knew that Guo Yi and Zhang Xun would explain for him. Moreover, as an emperor, if he is determined to consecrate someone, Chen Xilie and others cannot stop him.
"Xiao Shisanlang has no intention of fame, and he is listless even as a general in the army. He is used to being carefree, and he really can't stand the constraints of the army and the arrogance of officials. Although Xiao Shisanlang is not well-known, his achievements are no worse than those of Nan Jiyun. Zhang Xuan took this opportunity to confer him a marquis, and then made an exception by conferring the title of princess on his daughter-in-law Li Susu, which can be regarded as giving Xiao Shisan the title of princess. Saburo gave an explanation.
Zhang Xuan knew that Xiao Shisanlang and his wife would accept it. No matter how indifferent Xiao Shisanlang was to fame and wealth, he still had a son. He had to think about his wife and children.
In addition to family considerations, Zhang Xuan also had political considerations in canonizing Zhang Xiuxiu. Zhang Xiuxiu represents the royal family in marriage with the Cui family, a high-ranking noble family. The higher Zhang Xiuxiu's status, the higher the status of her and her husband Cui Huan and the entire Cui family in the noble family. This is irreplaceable for Zhang Xuan to win over the high-ranking noble family. role.
And as a result, the Cui family is now prominent. It is the natal family of Queen Cui Ying, and there is also a governor of Guannai Road. Together with Zhang Xiuxiu, the eldest princess of Ning Kingdom, the Cui family has a tendency to become the head of the noble family.
Zhang Xuan thought for a while and then said calmly, "In addition, Zhang Jiuming can be canonized as the Prince of Qinghe County, with a settlement of 3,000 households. Zhang Jiugao can be canonized as the Prince of Pingling, with a settlement of 3,000 households. Other clan heirs, Chen Zaifu, you prime ministers Let¡¯s discuss the decision, I¡¯m fine with it.¡±
Zhang Xuan finally agreed to canonize the two uncles Zhang Jiuming and Zhang Jiugao and their heirs. In any case, these are his relatives as the emperor. It is said that one person can achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven.
Chen Xilie and others knelt on the ground and followed the order.
After such a fuss, Zhang Xuan¡¯s thoughts of going to Houyuan to reunite with the girls faded away. In addition, it was getting late, so I simply stopped going and rested directly in the Huaxia Palace.
On the second day, there was no grand meeting.
Chen Xilie issued six canonization edicts for the emperor one after another. One of them canonized Cui Ying as the queen and bestowed gold books and jade scrolls. The second process conferred Su Hudong and six other women as concubines and sent them to Houyuan. The third process conferred Zhang Xiuxiu as the eldest princess of Ning State and sent it to Cui Mansion. The fourth canonizes the emperor Zhang Qian as Prince Duan, and the princesses Zhang Ruoran and Zhang Hanyan as Princess Anguo and Princess Dingguo. The fifth route conferred the title of Xiao Thirteenth Lang as Xiaoyao Hou and Li Susu as Princess Zhaoyang, and sent them to the Xiao Mansion. The sixth road canonized Zhang Jiuming and Zhang Jiugao as county kings and sent them to the Zhang family of the royal clan.
It is natural for the new emperor to ascend the throne and ennoble his concubines and relatives, so these edicts did not cause any commotion in the capital.
But in the Cui family and the Xiao family, it caused a huge "repercussion".
Cui Yinggui is the queen, and her mother honors the world. Immediately afterwards, Zhang Xiuxiu, the wife of the eldest daughter Cui Huan, rose to the top and became the eldest princess of the dynasty. For the Cui family, this is a great favor.
Cui Ju and his wife led a group of relatives and servants in the palace to prostrate themselves to the ground with tears of gratitude. They faced the direction of the palace and shouted long live.
When she got the news, Zhang Xiuxiu was talking to her sister Li Susu at Sanlang Xiao¡¯s house. She heard that she had been canonized by the emperor as the eldest princess of the Ning Kingdom, and that her sister had also been canonized.The princess and her brother-in-law also got Marquis Xiaoyao. The two sisters burst into tears. They couldn't help themselves and cried to the ground.
The two sisters have a heart of gratitude, but they also have the joys and sorrows of remembering their life experiences. They were Li Yong's granddaughters. After Li Yong's death, they lived in prostitution. If Zhang Xuan, a noble man, had not appeared, where would they be today?
From a singer to today's eldest princess and princess, a lady who ranks high in the capital's hierarchy and enjoys the world's glory and wealth. How can such a contrast not make the two women's minds agitated and unable to control themselves.
Thirteenth Xiao Xiao was also sighing at the side.
