Zhi Xuan

Chapter 245

After the hunt, there were three sacrifices, originally to celebrate the enthronement of the king, but it was cast a shadow by the "scourge of heaven".

There were endless discussions inside and outside the court, what kind of anger and grievance did the royal family do to attract punishment from heaven.Meteorites fell from the sky, killing people on the spot, but Wang Huaichu ascended the throne, the whole incident reveals a disturbing message.

Everyone in the royal family was anxious, the injured stayed behind closed doors, refused to visit, and tried to hide their ears and steal their bells to avoid public opinion.

The uninjured have nowhere to hide, facing inquiries from visitors, passively falling into the storm of public opinion in the city, feeling like sitting on pins and needles every moment.

The dead members of the royal family were carried home and buried after the coffin.

When the meteorite fell, there were no bones left.The family had no choice but to dig a handful of soil from the bottom of the pit, put it in a coffin, cover it with clothes and crowns, and send it to the mausoleum.

The cause of his death was so unusual that the palace decreed that he was not allowed to be buried in the royal tomb.

Originally, Wang Huai had no such plan, but it was the members of the royal family who insisted on giving the order.

Not entering the tomb of the royal family is equivalent to not recognizing the royal status of the deceased.Since he started, this bloodline will be completely marginalized.Even if it is not removed from the family tree, it will not be reused by the king again, and it has become a luxury to enter the court.

Being treated like this, the relatives of the deceased were indignant, resentful, and cursed in the direction of the palace, obviously harboring a grudge against Wang Huai.

Knowing this, Wang Huai sighed and shook his head, he had expected such consequences.

The Empress Dowager did not allow Wang Huai's majesty to be provoked, and immediately sent people across the house to punish him severely for disrespect.There was nothing he could do to make concessions to the great princes, and the person who fell into such a fate, except for the unexpected cause of death, was all to blame.

Relying on his seniority in the royal family, this person is connected everywhere, and he is not clear about his relationship with the exiled clan. He is getting more and more rampant day by day, jumping up and down in the capital city.

Hands and feet in Yuantao's meal, planting nails in the palace, there is no lack of his shadow behind him.

What's more, he also ordered people to spread rumors and attack Xi Yuanhou wantonly.

Although the plan made a mistake in the middle and was not fully implemented, the impact was limited to a small area, and it was an out-and-out provocation to the big princes.

According to common sense, a mere member of the royal family, the official is the highest official, not even a minister, dare to provoke and offend one of the big princes?

No matter how you think about it, things will not be so simple.

The person on the surface is probably a cover. Who is the real messenger? Could it be the new king?

If it was not Zhi Xuan who was provoked, but the more suspicious Dong Liang Hou, things would definitely go bad.Once the incident happens, Wang Huai will be implicated, and even more likely to be pushed out by the shameless villain and become a scapegoat.

Every time she thought about this, the queen mother became furious, and felt even more frightened for a while.

Fortunately, a huge rock fell from the sky, making the culprit disappear in ashes, otherwise it would lead to a catastrophe.

After thinking it over clearly, the Queen Mother was even more merciless, and sent people across the government to reprimand and punish them. She also discussed with Wang Huai to move this branch out of Zhongdu City.

It is called moving out, but in essence it is expulsion.

This branch can't recognize the position, intends to be both sides, and has a close relationship with the exiled clan.You think you are smart, but you are really stupid.That being the case, it is better to change the fiefs together and let them get along for a long time, which is also considered the beauty of adults.

The king's decree was issued, causing quite a stir in the capital city.

The attitude of the royal palace was clearly seen inside and outside the court. It cannot be said that it was an accident, but they all sighed. The glory of the royal family is really gone. The capital city is declining day by day, and it is inevitable that the big princes will replace it.

Compared with the bitter wind and rain in the previous dynasty, the scene in the harem is different.

The royal family learned the lesson and dared not continue to make mistakes. Yuan Tao's meals returned to normal, and the chef sent by Zhixuan cooked them himself.The maids and servants with questionable backgrounds were transferred away one after another, and the servants sent by Zhi Xuan took their places.The vacant maid will be dispatched by the Queen Mother herself, so naturally there will be no problem.

Taking this opportunity, Mrs. Ji and the four concubines worked together to clean up their surroundings.

Some members of the royal family were bold enough to not only monitor Yuan Tao, but also placed people around the king's wives and concubines, intending to grasp the wind direction in the palace and understand the every move of Mrs. Ji and his concubine.

Such behavior aroused public outrage.

When the clansmen and passers-by of Xiyuan Kingdom roared at the main hall and stomped the royal family's face on the ground, all the Zhongdu clan remained silent. Instead of sharing the same hatred, they were happy to see the royal family's misfortune, and took the opportunity to vent their anger.

The queen mother handed over the palace affairs to Mrs. Ji, leaving her with a group of useful people, and then stopped asking.

Mrs. Ji's canonization ceremony was completed, and she became the new queen and entered the harem.

Yuan Tao was also canonized, and his position was only below that of the queen.

The four concubines and wives have no titles, only jewelry rewards.A concubine with children has a higher standard, and a concubine who has no children is slightly inferior.

Mrs. Ji holds great power in her hands, showing her vigorous and resolute side.

The harem was completely cleaned, and all servants and maidservants with problems were cleared out of the palace.The lower-level servants gathered to verify their identities, and those who did not match the records were expelled.

Such methods are inevitably harsh, but the situation is special, in order to clean up the eyes and ears of all parties, Mrs. Ji is determined and would rather kill by mistake than let them go.

Under Mrs. Ji's means, all the nails planted by the royal family were pulled out, and the clan's eyeliner was not spared.Unless the princes' manpower in the palace is revealed, there will still be no one left.

Mrs. Ji did it on purpose.

I don't want to leave people talking, and look for opportunities to provoke them afterwards. The royal family, the Zhongdu clan and the princes must treat each other equally.

In the letter to the Patriarch of the Ji family, she stated her intention of being stern and selfless, and asked the Patriarch to comfort and appease the clan.With her and several concubines in the palace, you can send a letter to inquire in an open and honest manner, why do you need to hide your eyeliner to attract unnecessary suspicion.

"The vassal state is powerful, the royal family is weak, and the status of the Zhongdu clan is not as good as before. I hope you will understand."

Yuan Tao has learned a lot from Mrs. Ji, and she can't talk to the people around her, so she can only write to Zhixuan.

"The queen is wise, Tao has benefited a lot."

After receiving this letter, Zhi Xuan not only saw Madam Ji's methods, but also her own attitude.

Compared with the clans that are still waiting and watching, she first recognized the situation and understood the future position of the royal family.However, it is really admirable to be able to be polite and neither humble nor overbearing.

First there was the queen mother who resolutely gave up the power in her hand, and then there was the bold and cautious Mrs. Ji. The two worked together to give Wang Huai a stable harem.

As a result, Zhixuan has a deeper understanding of the concept of "clan girl", and is sincerely impressed.

The cleaning of the palace came to an end, and the three sacrifices were successfully completed.

The day after the end of the sacrifice is the Dachaohui.

Amidst the sound of rites and music, the princes put on crowns and entered the palace, and gathered in the main hall with the Zhongdu clan.

In Wang Huai's first court meeting after he ascended the throne, the princes of the world are listed, and the ranking is ranked first with the four princes, and the six ministers of the central capital have to give way.

There are too many people participating in the super meeting, all the seats in the hall are full, and there are long queues outside the hall.

Zhi Xuan's position is the first on the right, closest to Wang Huai.The position next to him originally belonged to the Marquis of Bei'an, but was given up to Zhao Hao.

The Marquis of Bei'an smiled and nodded to Zhixuan. He didn't look like a prince who killed Di Rong so decisively. He was more like a kind father, so kind that people couldn't believe it.

To be able to give birth to such an evildoer as Zhao Hao, Bei'an Hou's appearance is naturally extraordinary.

Taking a close look at Bei'anhou, he seems to be a refined, elegant and personable handsome uncle, the kind who can attract flying flowers when driving.

If you think about it carefully, the scumbag's appearance is also not bad, and the former Marquis of Dongliang is also very handsome.The last Marquis of Nanyou, Zhixuan, had never seen him before. Since he was Zhao Hao's uncle, there was no need to say much about his appearance.

Looking at the monarchs and big clans of various countries, there is almost no difference in appearance.Even for the small clans that have made a fortune not long ago, most of them have good looks, and it is difficult for them to appear crooked.

Later dynasties have strict requirements on the appearance of officials, and the imperial examinations even produced a test. Could it be because of this?

Even if you need seniority to be an official, it is rare to see young handsome men in the court, and a group of handsome uncles and grandpas standing in front of you are just as pleasing to the eye.

Zhi Xuan's mind was full of imagination, his expression was very serious, no one could guess what he was thinking at the moment.

Zhao Hao sat aside, looked sideways at Zhi Xuan, and slowly narrowed his eyes.Based on his understanding of Zhi Xuan, it is very likely that he is distracted, and he is definitely not thinking about something serious.

The man Wang Huai entered the hall, and the ritual and music came to an end.

Everyone stood up and worshiped three times, and then sat down.

The attendants held up the imperial decree, read aloud the praises to the princes, recalled the grand occasion when Wang Dingding of the first generation divided the Central Plains into the world, and praised the emperor, sages, ministers and virtuous people, all of whom are Yu Yuxi.I hope that the monarchs will continue to work hard, be loyal to the country, guard the Quartet, and deter the barbarians.

The purpose is eloquent and the content is as many as a thousand words.

After the waiter finished reading the whole article, his voice became hoarse because he had to raise his voice every sentence.

The princes agreed in unison, and the clans followed suit.

The official historian worked hard to record this scene in detail, without omitting any details.

After everyone returned to their seats, the sound of ceremonies and music continued for a quarter of an hour.

The music stopped. According to the usual practice, the king asked about political affairs, and the ministers answered about the prosperity of the year.The king of people asked about military affairs, and the princes said there was no war.After some coping, the process is more than half completed.If no princes come forward, the court will be declared over.

I don't want Zhao Hao to come out suddenly and report something.

"Please change You to Zhao, and change the name of the country."

After the voice fell, there was silence in the hall, and a needle could be heard.

The movement of the musician stopped in the middle, and the irregular music flowed out for a moment, and then quickly returned to silence.

No one expected that Zhao Hao would suddenly come out and propose changing the country's name at the first court meeting after King Ren's ascension to the throne.

Most of the name changes of vassal states are due to the change of the title of the monarch. For example, Tong's family was changed to Youdi, and the family name was changed to You, and the country's name was also changed accordingly.In the final analysis, it is to obey the will of the king.

Zhao Hao got the throne by abdicating, and he should inherit the You family according to the old rules.He did the opposite, not only did not want to inherit the You family, but also changed the name of the country together. There was no mistake in the law and etiquette, but he actually leveraged a corner of the power in Zhongdu City.

The princes and clans remained silent, their eyes wandering between the King of People and the four princes.

When it comes to leveraging the royal power, most people thought that Zhi Xuan would be the first to stand up.After all, he proposed the alliance, and it was he who laid out the blueprint for the princes.I don't want Zhao Hao to be one step ahead of him, but from such a tricky angle.

As expected of a couple, they behaved beyond expectations, extremely domineering, beyond compare.
