Chapter 542 He Is Not a Descendant of the Imperial Ji Clan at All!

Seeing some people in the crowd lower their heads quickly, he sneered coldly, and said slowly, "So, in my opinion, neither King Qin nor Princess Zhaoyang is suitable to be emperor, but their child, the young son of Qin Zhan The most suitable."

He began to cite suitable reasons.

"First, although Qin Zhan's surname is Qin, his mother is Princess Zhaoyang and the eldest princess of the Jihuang family, so he is also a legitimate descendant of the Jihuang family. Now Emperor Zichen's country is taken from the Jihuang family. , then Emperor Zichen is dead, it is understandable that this country will return the power to the descendants of Emperor Ji's family."

"Secondly, you have all seen how the Dragon God praised Qin Zhan just now. The Dragon God said that Qin Zhan has the most beautiful heart in the world. Can a person who the Dragon God personally approves be unworthy of being a monarch?"

"Thirdly, the Dragon God loves Qin Zhan. Qin Zhan just sacrificed a few drops of blood, and the Dragon God will give us three days of heavy rain in the capital. Bless the royal family of Ji every year, and our Dazhao country will usher in countless years of good weather, prosperity and peace for the people!"

"Fourth, it's what I said before. Qin Zhan is the son of King Qin and the princess. He can get the help of King Shou in exchange for his ascension to the throne, and help the people of Dazhao to tide over the difficulties."

After saying these four points, Shen Yu turned to face the crowd, and said in a deep voice, "Everyone think I'm right? Is Qin Zhan's ascension to the throne a blessing for our Dazhao country, or for our common people?"

The people have already been excited by the four points he listed, so they naturally replied loudly without hesitation, "Your Excellency is so right! Your Excellency is wise!"

Some of the officials nodded frequently.

King Qin and Princess Zhaoyang are indeed unwilling to be emperors, but if they are descendants of Emperor Ji's family, they can barely accept it.

But there are still objections.

"General Shen, this old man doesn't agree."

The grey-haired Minister of Rites stood up. This old antique was scolded by Ji Wushuang in the court last time, and he didn't have a long memory. Today, he is pedantic and wants to scold him again.

He raised his chin slightly and said, "That's right, Princess Zhaoyang is the eldest princess of the Jihuang clan. She is a member of the Jihuang clan, but the child she gave birth to is a descendant of the Qin family. How can this be considered a descendant of the Jihuang clan?" What about people? He is a descendant of the Qin family and has nothing to do with the Ji imperial family!"

Since ancient times, everyone believed that a daughter is a married outsider, and the children born are also children of other families. Once a daughter is married, she no longer belongs to the clan.

He snorted coldly, "The ones who inherit the incense are all his descendants. I haven't heard of it yet, let the grandson inherit the incense!"

Shen Yu looked at the Minister of Rites coldly, "You haven't heard of it, it's because you are ignorant! At least among the people, there are many such things!"

He looked at the people, "Is there such a thing around you? After some families have accidents and cut off the incense, will the elders of the family still bring back a child born to a married daughter, and inherit the incense after changing the surname? "

Some of the people were at a loss, while others nodded repeatedly.

A man said loudly, "My lord, this kind of thing happened in our village! Two years ago, old man Zhao's only son went up the mountain and was taken away by a tiger and eaten. He hasn't married and had a child yet, so the incense will be cut off? Everyone Everyone persuaded the old man Zhao to go to his cousin's house to raise a child, but he didn't do it, and in the end he took a child from his daughter's house and changed his surname to Zhao to inherit the incense!"

Shen Yu nodded, "Thank you."

He looked back at the Minister of Rites and said with a sneer, "Look, in a big family with a prosperous population, the daughter is indeed an outsider, and her descendants are also outsiders, but now that the Jihuang clan is gone, only the mother and son are left, unless you can Find another descendant of Ji Huang's family, otherwise Ji Zhan is the most suitable candidate!"
