Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 86 stalemate

Chapter 86 stalemate
It should be said that Hu Xun's remarks are very out of line.

Among the people present, only he, with profound qualifications, served in three dynasties, and was ordered to assist the government by the previous emperor, dared to say so directly.

To put it bluntly, under the circumstance that the current emperor has a son, if Zhu Qiyu wants to succeed the throne, if the legal system comes from Emperor Xuanzong, then the orthodoxy of the current emperor is denied.

But the problem is that now the emperor, root Hongmiao is too powerful!

In terms of inheritance rules, today Ziben is the eldest son of Emperor Xuanzong. Although his biological mother is the queen who was later promoted, but considering that the Yuan Dynasty has no children, his identity as a direct son is also recognized.

Both direct and long, inheriting the great lineage is beyond reproach.

In terms of succession procedure, within three years of Xuande, he had already been established as the heir and announced to the world.

It is only right and proper for the prince to succeed the throne.

What's more, when Emperor Xuanzong died, there were still five auxiliary ministers left behind, and each of them was a witness.

To deny the legitimacy of the present day, one must deny the imperial edict that the emperor established the crown prince in the third year of Xuande, the last emperor's last edict when he was dying, and the five assistant ministers who worked hard for the court.

This is simply impossible. If you say it, the world will not believe it, and the courtiers will not recognize it!

What they want to do is to establish a new emperor, not to abolish the current emperor.

In the final analysis, when today's son is serious, and Emperor Xuanzong, who is rooted in red seedlings, left his order, this point cannot be overturned.

And the more important point is that the emperor is not dead, he is just a hunter in the north. If he denies his throne, how will the emperor come back one day?

So the best way is for the emperor to pass on the throne to a new monarch, and the new monarch respects the emperor as the supreme emperor, one after another, and the legal tradition is passed on.

After Hu Yan finished speaking, it was quiet underneath, and the old man looked at Zhu Qiyu sincerely.

He naturally knew the importance of the legal system to a new monarch, so he did not hesitate to make a taboo and made his words clear, just to let Zhu Qiyu understand and not to make unnecessary efforts.

However, to his disappointment, after listening to these words, Zhu Qiyu still maintained a faint smile on his face, as if this matter did not touch him.

"Uncle Da Zong misunderstood. Today, I will inherit the legal system of the previous emperor, and it is justifiable. How could this king have such an idea? What I said is inappropriate is not referring to this..."

Hu Xun looked at Zhu Qiyu suspiciously and made sure that he didn't tell a lie before he hesitated to speak.

"Since His Highness didn't refer to this, could it be the origin of this edict?"

Hu Yan felt that His Royal Highness King Yu should not be so stupid.

They are already racking their brains about where the legal system comes from. If this Highness pretends to be confused, he must say that this edict does not exist.

Then what kind of position do you inherit... The legal system cannot be created out of thin air!

The smile on Zhu Qiyu's face remained unchanged, and he said lightly: "If the king's guess is right, has the Empress Dowager read this edict?"

After saying that, Zhu Qiyu turned his head and looked at Chen Xun with a smile that was not a smile.

"Right, Master Chen?"

Chen Xun's scalp was numb when he was seen, but he still said: "Return to Your Highness, it is true. The day before yesterday, the Queen Mother called the minister to enter the palace and asked about the legal system.

This was nothing to hide, not to mention Chen Xun's identity, being summoned to the Cining Palace to discuss matters, it was also something that could not be concealed.

On the contrary, Chen Xun still didn't understand why this King Yu was dissatisfied.

Although a few days ago, the Empress Dowager had been fighting against King Yu, making trouble everywhere, and even heard that she was still acting against Concubine Xian in the palace.

But that's all in the past after all. This time, if you want to solve the legal problem smoothly, you can't escape from the empress dowager.

If nothing else, this edict is false, but if the court is willing to endorse it collectively, then it is true.

And the most important part of this is the empress dowager.

Now that the Queen Mother took the initiative to propose a solution, it was a release of goodwill, so Chen Xun really couldn't figure out what was wrong with what King Yu said.

Zhu Qiyu couldn't help sighing in his heart when he saw Chen Xun's face.

It's no wonder that they didn't understand. In his previous life, he himself didn't notice this little detail.

After all, who would have thought that the resigned Taishanghuang could be restored...

After thinking about it, Zhu Qiyu said: "This edict is the Ministry of Rites, and the cabinet and the queen mother agreed together. Naturally, this king will not disappoint everyone's good intentions, but this king feels that the word succession is not appropriate."

"The so-called successor is that the prince inherits the throne of the emperor. This king is not the prince. Even if the legal system is inherited from the emperor, it should be the Zen throne, not the heir. I don't know what you think?"

Zhu Qiyu didn't mention it, and no one noticed this subtle difference, but when he mentioned it, the officials below responded.

There seems to be no difference between the heir position and the Zen position, but in fact, in terms of status, they are different.

As Zhu Qiyu said, the heir position is usually used by the prince, which means inheritance, while the Zen position is more inclined to give and transfer.

But no matter what, both of them are inheritance methods that conform to the etiquette. The difference is...

After understanding it, Hu Yan said, "Since His Royal Highness's legal system is inherited from today, although it is not the heir, it is not impossible to use the word heir. If it is based on the Zen position, I am afraid that the Queen Mother will disagree."

I didn't say it too thoroughly, but everyone present could understand it.

The difference between succession and Zen is the transfer of legal system.

If King Yu is the heir to the throne, then he will inherit the throne of the Son of Heaven, then the legal system is actually still in the line of the Son of Heaven, and after a hundred years of King Yu, it will still be in the line of the Son of Heaven.

And if King Yun is the king of Zen, then he has accepted the throne from the emperor, and the legal system will be transferred. After a hundred years of King Yu, who will inherit it will depend on King Yu's own attitude.

In addition, under normal circumstances, the position of Zen is only due to the fault of the reigning emperor.

There are two reasons for this, one is that it is a bit unethical, and the other is that the Empress Dowager will definitely not agree.

Chen Xun also said: "His Royal Highness, in this situation, it is better to take the throne as soon as possible, and it is better to have peace of mind. Why should Your Highness be entangled with such details?"

Zhu Qiyu sighed, he knew that the courtiers would say so.

Before, he had repeatedly used the people's opinions to suppress the Queen Mother Sun, but this time it was his turn to suffer.

Obviously, in the hearts of the courtiers, this time the Empress Dowager Sun generously cooperated with the new monarch's enthronement ceremony, and even did not hesitate to endorse a non-existent edict so that the new monarch's legal system would be complete.

This is the performance of the general knowledge!

And Zhu Qiyu, who is entangled in the so-called "minimal details", seems to be preoccupied.

The word Zen, after all, contains a vague accusation against the emperor. Now that the queen mother is so generous, Zhu Qiyu is still pressing step by step, which is a bit disregarding the overall situation.

What Chen Xun said is actually what most courtiers think today.

Now that you have reached this point, you should stop fussing about it, quickly ascend the throne, and stabilize the situation.

But then again, this is not to blame the courtiers.

After all, for them, this is indeed "the minutiae".

It's not that etiquette is unimportant, but at this time, it's unnecessary to tangle about it.

Just like Zhu Qiyu's previous life, no matter whether the edict uses "the throne" or "the throne of Zen", the throne is already in his hands anyway.

Even if the Son of Heaven returns, it is impossible to return it, so it doesn't really matter which one is used.

The only difference may be who will succeed the throne in the future, but as Hu Yu said at the beginning, the roots are upright and the legal system is extremely stable.

Even Zhu Qiyu did not dare to say openly at this time that the legal system would be transferred to his lineage after a hundred years.

After all, establishing Jinshang's son as the heir is one of the conditions in exchange for Zhu Qiyu's ascension to the throne. How to say it later, but it is impossible to overthrow it now.

So entangled in this, in the view of the courtiers, it is really unnecessary!

Of course, Zhu Qiyu didn't think so. He also felt that this small difference was nothing, but who would have thought that the emperor who was imprisoned in the Nangong could be resurrected?

At the beginning of the restoration of Nangong, it caused more turmoil at the high level, while the middle and low levels were relatively stable. One of the important reasons was that Zhu Qizhen actually had a name in his hands.

Since it is the heir, it means that the legal system has always existed in Zhu Qizhen's lineage, so it is reasonable for him to take it back.

On the contrary, Zhu Qiyu, who forcibly made it easier for the prince, was unreasonable.

In the final analysis, the success rate of restoration is too low, to the extent that the courtiers who are planning to make an imperial edict have not taken it into consideration.

After thinking about it, Zhu Qiyu said.

"To tell you the truth, this king has been thinking about it for the past few days, and he has always felt uneasy in his heart. Although he succeeded to the throne this time, although he was doing it for the sake of the state, it was not in line with the etiquette after all."

"This king has no intention of falling in love with the throne. If my eldest brother, the emperor, can be welcomed back, even if he returns to the throne, it will be fine."

"However, reading the history books, it is difficult for a king who abdicates to have a good end. Every time this king thinks about it, his heart is full of fear and anxiety. I also ask you all the elders to be considerate of this king's heart."
