All Hail Cousin Brother

Yin Huaixi was worried that she would be angry, and quickly explained: "Empress Ning's intentions are sinister. I am far away in Liaodong. I am afraid that I will be out of reach and let her take advantage of the loopholes, so I have to use the empress dowager to settle the marriage first."

In the imperial clan of the Tian family, any noble girl with a title will have to go through the palace to nod her marriage, and it cannot be decided without permission.

For those with more prominent status, the emperor, the empress dowager or the queen personally ordered and bestowed the marriage.

A woman like Yu Youyao who has received the emperor's grace, and a daughter of a foreign minister who has been conferred a royal title, tends to be more cautious about marriage matters.

Tiandijun is a teacher, and before the "kiss", the "jun" does not even have the right to decide her parents' marriage. Although the marriage is a major event, it always pays attention to "the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker". It is also necessary to seek the consent of the parents, but the emperor's order cannot be violated, and the ministers only have to obey.

The Yu clan has a great influence on the battle for the throne. Yu Youyao has a distinguished status and is in the year of marriage. Knowing that the Empress has her eyes on Yu Youyao and wants to make a big fuss about her marriage, it is impossible for the Empress Dowager to remain indifferent.

He only asked Eunuch Zhu to reveal a little. The Empress Dowager would ponder the news that Yin Huaixi, the king of Wu Mu Dingbei, admired the virtue and character of the master of Shaoyi County.

In the eyes of outsiders, Yin Huaixi's legs were restored because of Yu Youyao;

It was also because of Yu Youyao's assistance that the drought in the northern region was relieved;

It was also because of Yu Youyao that King Wu Mu Dingbei escaped the sinister calculations of the Han clan in Xi'an;

Not to mention, Yu Youyao even helped King Wu Mu, successfully promoted the national policy in the northern border, and stabilized the situation in the northern border.

...

It is said to be a life-saving grace when it is older, and it is also a help when it is small.

As long as he is not ungrateful, he will bear some kindness.

also be restrained by his wife.

Marriage seems to be a matter of course.

Seeing her lowered her head and didn't speak, Yin Huaixi felt a little flustered.

This matter was indeed unethical. Before calculating the marriage of the Empress Dowager, he did not discuss it with the Xie Fu, nor did he tell her in advance.

In the end, it is a lifelong event, and anyone else will be annoyed.

Yin Huaixi clenched her hand and explained, "The news that the Queen's concubine has rewarded you has already spread all over the city on the day you set off. Some people in the royalist party openly proposed in the court that the fourth prince should go to Liaodong for inspection and shelter. The specific situation of the implementation of the national policy, such as the epidemic, the resettlement of the victims, the case of the Han family in Xi'an, and the promotion and cultivation of sweet potatoes."

This move is Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knows it.

Yu Youyao was horrified.

Throughout the dynasties, whenever there are natural and man-made disasters, sending the prince and the prince to help the disaster relief and comfort the people can more stabilize the people's hearts, stabilize the society, and unite the people's hearts.

The implementation of national policies does not happen overnight. In order to express the importance that the imperial court attaches to the implementation of national policies, it is normal to send individuals to inspect.

The case of the Han family in Xi'an is still in progress. The officials from the northwest who are most qualified to inspect are inevitably at a disadvantage. The royalist party is powerful. If the court really wants to send someone, the fourth prince is undoubtedly the best candidate.

The Empress first used the matter of rewarding her to make a big fuss, and then she instigated the courtiers and suggested that the Fourth Prince go to Liaodong for inspection. It was hard not to think of her.

Yin Huaixi said: "The queen rewarded the four princes for inspections, one after another, and they were intertwined. When the fourth princes arrived in Liaodong, as the ruler of Shaoyi County, you are bound to come forward to cooperate with the fourth prince's inspection. At that time, let out some, the fourth prince appreciates your rumors, there is no suspense about this marriage."

Yu Youyao was also a little terrified: "I really want Queen Ning's calculation to succeed, the fourth prince and the royalists have formed an unbreakable relationship of interest, Queen Ning and the fourth prince are in the fight for the crown, and they will definitely get the first opportunity. Concubine Xu, will you sit still and let it go?"

Yin Huaixi said: "Why do you think the empress dowager can always control the royalist party, make the royalist party follow her lead, always maintain the authority of the empress dowager high above, and even the current emperor respects her? Don't underestimate the empress dowager's control over the court. , Concubine Lan and Concubine Xu certainly don't want to sit still, but their hands are not long enough to reach the royalists."

Yu Youyao suddenly understood: "The establishment of the Chu Chu is for the sake of the security of the society and the country, and it is determined by the emperor, but the struggle for the Chu Chu is to overstep the imperial power and is suspected of stealing the country and treason. No matter how much Empress Ning has calculated, it is also within the royalist party. The empress dowager couldn't go any further. On the surface, the battle for the reserve was already getting more and more intense, but because the empress dowager was pressing down, no one dared to really come to the stage and peel off the fig leaf and expose it in front of people. ."

As the mother of a country, the Empress has the right to reward her family members. With the reward, she is mixed with personal calculations, and others can't criticize it.

Is it possible that Concubine Lan and the others can still stop the court and not give rewards to the Lord of Shaoyi? !

As long as Empress Ning's reward was sent to Liaodong, Empress Ning's calculation had already become more than half, and the remaining half was tied to the fourth prince.

To put it mildly, Liaodong is already the territory of the royalists, and it is impossible for Concubine Xu and Concubine Lan to take the risk of sending the third and second princes to Liaodong for inspection.

If you want to break Queen Ning's calculations, unless something "accident" happened to the fourth prince, he can't come.

However, the Empress had calculated everything, so she would be unprepared for this?

Right now, the Empress Dowager is in charge of political affairs, and the royalist party is powerful. No one dares to act rashly until they are not sure of "necessary".

Yin Huaixi nodded and said: "Inspecting the matter of Liaodong, we debated in the court for several days, and the Empress Dowager never made a decision until the court's reward, and the decree sealed by the Empress Dowager, after arriving in Liancheng, the Empress Dowager ordered someone to seal you up. The jade plate was sent to the Taimiao Temple, and then it was heard from the palace that the fourth prince wanted to copy the Buddhist scriptures for the empress dowager and prayed for blessings, and temporarily closed the palace gate to inspect the affairs of Liaodong, and then silenced."

Officials of the third rank and above in the Great Zhou Dynasty are generally called "certificates".

Officials of the third rank and below are all drafted by the Ministry of Personnel. After the trial of the Supreme Court, they are approved by the emperor, and the Ministry of Personnel issues an "appointment letter".

The clan and concubines confer nobility, which is called "canonization".

Sealing the clan, there are books, and there are treasure seals.

Concubine concubines, there are books but no treasures.

The emperors, queen mothers and queens have books and seals, which are also called "book treasures".

Yu Youyao belongs to a clan, and has a book and a treasure seal. Most of the book is made of gold or jade, so it is also called "jade plate" or treasure plate. The jade plate is like a danshu iron deed , are divided into two, one is awarded to the recipients to inherit from generation to generation, and the other will be enshrined in the Tai Temple.

When the jade plate was sent to the Taimiao Temple, it was like telling the world about the canonization.
