Chastity Layman

"It is proposed to confer posthumously the title of Wei Ting, the father of the imperial concubine Wei, as Yifeng County King, Tejin, Envoy, Governor of Yangzhou, Sikong, and Shangzhu Kingdom.

Jin Wei Huangchen's father Wei Xuanzhen was Tejin and Zhou Guogong, and his mother Cui was Mrs. Zhou Guo. "

In the political hall.

The prime minister's team lost a few old faces and added a few new ones.

Facing the item sent by the servant, the prime ministers had their own thoughts. The emperor wanted to bestow the official title on Er Wei's father in the harem, which is a proper rule, but the surprise is that this time the emperor did not directly let the Imperial Academy wait for the imperial edict to be issued by the internal system, but let the servants send it to the Minister of Political Affairs discuss.

Something unusual.

Before that, the right servant shot Laiji against the establishment of new imperial concubines and imperial concubines, and even opposed the emperor's acceptance of his younger brother, daughter-in-law, son and concubine as servants to the palace. As a result, he was dismissed and demoted to the Western Regions. The emperor's attitude was extremely firm and could not be refuted at all.

Xu Jingzong did not express his support for Zhongshu Ling, but they all turned to Zuo Pushe. Zuo Pushe Cui Dunli was directly demoted to the Southwest Wilderness because he was the uncle of Qin Guifei's sisters.

Now instead, let the lords discuss the gift to Er Wei's father.

Li Yifu coughed twice first.

"It is also the practice of our dynasty to bestow the concubine's father. It should be done. The father of Emperor Yuanzhen, Empress Dugu, was posthumously presented to King Liang by Gaozu, and Dou Yi, the father of Empress Taimu, was posthumously named King Qi. The holy ancestor Wen Empress De's father, Sun Sheng, was also posthumously presented as King Qi..."

The fathers of the three queens all gave the king's title as a rule.

Li Yifu said with a smile and looked at Dou Dexuan, the new face in the political affairs hall. The Dou Yi he mentioned just now was Dou Dexuan's great-grandfather. Dou Yi was the great Sima of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the governor of Yizhou in the Sui Dynasty. After the establishment of Tang Dynasty, he was given to Sikong and King Qi.

Dou Dexuan's grandfather, Dou Zhao, was a horse attached to Princess Yiyang, the daughter of Emperor Wen of the Western Wei Dynasty.

His father, Dou Yan, was the minister of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War, and the Duke of Julu County in the Sui Dynasty.

By the time of Dou Dexuan, in the Wude and Zhenguan dynasties, he was just fooling around. He didn't have any outstanding talent, so he fooled around. He started as a student of the Imperial College, and was Li Yuan's prime minister by virtue of his relatives. He was only a young prisoner in the palace.

Even because he is not the eldest son, he doesn't even have a title.

In this earthquake in the court, the emperor stuffed this cousin into the political affairs hall after dismissing the left and right servants, worshiped him as the right servant of the school, and specially appointed the founding baron of Julu County.

But everyone knows that this giant deer man is actually a full-fledged wealthy dude with no skills at all. Although the great-grandfather is the empress Gaozu, and the ancestor Dou Wei is the prime minister of the early Tang Dynasty, the emperor uses him only because he came They are relatives of the emperor, and secondly, they have no ability or ambition, so they are easier to control.

Facing Xu Jingzong's gaze, Dou Dexuan followed immediately, saying that this is indeed a common practice and should be supported.

Li Yifu looked at Zuo Pu and shot Xu Jingzong again.

At this moment in the political affairs hall, after a new round of storms, there were only five prime ministers left, namely Zhongshuling Li Yifu, Huangmen servant Cui Yixuan, Zhongshu servant Xue Yuanchao, Zuopushe Xu Jingzong and inspector Youpushe Dou Dexuan.

Lao Xu has been the Prime Minister of the court for more than 20 years, and served as the Secretary of the Central Committee for more than ten years, but this time he fell miserably.

Both Cui Yixuan and Xue Yuanchao belonged to the emperor, and Dou Dexuan was just a display. Li Yifu was originally his old subordinate, but now he has surpassed him.

After experiencing the last setback and being beaten by the emperor, Xu Jingzong became more vigilant, and he immediately corrected his attitude towards Li Yifu, the emperor's number one favorite who was gaining power.

Now, also immediately nodded.

Although he felt that it was unreasonable for Empress Su's father to confer titles on the fathers of the two concubines Wei, even though they hadn't been enshrined as usual, but he knew that the emperor deliberately threw such a thing into the political affairs hall at this time, probably to test the wind on purpose. Yes, whoever opposes and who supports it will just continue to deal with disobedient ones.

Although Xu Jingzong has a solid foundation in the court, he has many sons and daughters, and he was married in the Manchu Dynasty. Although the five surnames and seven families were not ashamed to marry the Xu family at the beginning, he felt that the status of the Xu family in Henan was far worse than that of the five surnames and seven families. angry.

He first married Feng An of Lingnan, married his daughter to Feng An's son, and received a lot of money, which made the famous family cast aside that he actually married his daughter to the Nanmanzi for money. But Xu Jingzong didn't care, after all, even Qin Langke married Lingnan Feng's.

Xu Jingzong later married Qin Lang, Cheng Yaojin, Yu Chigong, Changsun Shunde, Gao Xingqian Jiulong and many other high-ranking relatives and high-ranking officials. Relying on his many sons and daughters, Xu Jingzong's in-laws are all over the world, which also allowed him to stabilize his position for more than 20 years.

Xu Jingzong once even wanted to marry Ma Zhou, and later Li Yifu, but it didn't work out.

"What do Xue Gong and Cui Gong mean?"

One of these two was from Qinghe Cui, and the other was from Hedong Xue. They were both sons of the emperor, so naturally they would not object.

"Okay, then the Zhengshitang will support it."

No one mentions Concubine Qin or Empress Su anymore, and now these two have become taboos in the officialdom, and anyone who is a little sensitive knows that they can't touch them.

Cardinal Lang submitted the resolution of the Political Affairs Hall to the palace.

Li Yin was lying on the chair with her eyes closed, and Wei Xianger was helping the emperor knead the shoulders with moderate strength, especially her natural body fragrance, which made Li Yin very relaxed.

Webster's real name was Wei Lian, but Li Yin changed her name to Wei Xiang.

At this time, her cousin Wei Huang Guifei was reading a memorial to Li Yin.

"How about it, are you satisfied?"

Li Yin didn't open his eyes, and smiled at Er Wei.

Wei Xiang was young, and said in a coquettish voice, "Thank you Saint."

Wei Xiang's father, Wei Xuanzhen, was originally a minor official of the sixth rank who joined the army in Puzhou. After she entered the palace, his father was directly promoted to the governor of Puzhou.

Although Wei Ting, the father of the imperial concubine Wei, directly named Yifeng County King, but after all, it was a posthumous gift, and Wei Ting was also a prime minister in the Zhenguan Dynasty, which is incomparable.

"Is the imperial concubine dissatisfied?"

Webster also thanked the emperor, but there was not much joy on his face. She had not been married to Li You for a long time, and Li You failed in rebellion and was killed. When she remarried, who knew that her husband's elder brother Li Yin accepted her as the palace after he ascended the throne.

This was not what she wanted, it was just an accident.

After the emperor came to the throne, he conferred the title of Empress Su, and she went to the palace with the wife of the Wei family to meet the empress, and was forced to stay when the emperor met her.

Afterwards, she stayed in the palace for many years without knowing anything, and even gave birth to three children.

Now that the emperor finally gave her the title, the title of imperial concubine, and even a posthumous title of prince to her late father, Webster was not very happy. Instead, with these awards, her scars were uncovered again and again, dripping with blood, and she was completely killed. Stripped naked, displayed in front of the world.

In her heart, this relationship is always shameful and shameful.

It's just that as a woman, even though she is the daughter of a famous family, she has no choice.

She is different from her niece Wei Xiang. After Wei Xiang entered the palace, she felt like a fish in water, and even enjoyed this kind of favor without any scruples and no psychological burden, but she was very capable of doing it.

"Your Majesty, my grandfather has been working hard outside. Can your majesty transfer my concubine to Beijing? I heard that there is still a vacancy in the position of servant in the political affairs hall. How about your majesty appoint my concubine as servant? My concubine will definitely be a saint." Do things faithfully and faithfully, and follow the holy will in everything, and will never deliberately oppose His Majesty like Qin Guifei's uncle Cui Dunli and righteous brother Laiji."

While speaking, Wei Xiang pressed her whole body against the emperor's back, slowly wriggling and even breathing softly in the emperor's ear.

Li Yin laughed out loud.

"You little fairy, it's really annoying."

"But what you said is right, I will issue an edict to call your father back to the capital, and first serve as a prisoner in the palace."

"Your Majesty, why bother, it would be great to just tell the truth directly." Webster shook Li Yin's shoulder and said coquettishly.

Concubine Wei looked on coldly, a little indifferently. Compared with her young niece, Concubine Wei had already passed half her life and experienced all kinds of things in the world.

In fact, she knew Li Yin better, he was an emperor with strong desires, he wanted to possess what he liked, and destroy what he couldn't get.

At the beginning of her succession, she was fortunate enough to be included in the harem. At first, she only thought that he liked her because of her beauty, but then she gradually realized that this was not the case.

Webster's beauty is indeed extraordinary, but there are so many beautiful people in the world, the emperor has to risk being condemned by the world to accept his sister-in-law into the palace, what is more important is the status of the Webster family, and the stimulation of breaking taboos.

The Wei family has always been a wealthy family in Guanlong. In the Sui Dynasty, there were already three concubines. The prince Yang Zhao of Yang Guang, the king of Yuzhang and the king of Guangning took Wei as his concubine. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Wang Shichong and the separatist regime in Luoyang The Li family in Guanzhong couldn't wait to marry Wei Shi.

The two Websters in Li Shimin's harem were actually married before entering the palace. During the war, their husbands died and were widowed, but Li Shimin was still included in the palace.

The same goes for Yang.

After the Xuanwu Gate, Li Shimin even disregarded opposition and brought his younger sister-in-law Princess Qi Yang into the palace. In fact, the most fundamental reason was to win over the Yang and Wei clans of the famous Guanlong clan.

During the Zhenguan Dynasty, the political alliance of Li, Yang, Wei, and Changsun, the four famous gates of Guanlong, had been formed, and the roots were intertwined.

After Li Yin succeeded to the throne, he naturally wanted to bring Wei Yang's family over.

Especially in the later period of Zhenguan, because Wei Du was involved in the incident of supporting Wei Wangtai's reserve, Wei Duyang suffered a major blow. At this time, Wei Duyang was isolated and helpless, and was continuously suppressed by the eldest grandson Wuji Yu Zhining and others. , it is a good opportunity for Li Yin to win them over.

At the beginning of his succession, Johnny Wei's entry into the palace was a deliberate wooing of the Wei family, and after the eldest grandson's party was purged, the more deliberate and high-profile appointment of the second Wei was also a further act.

Concubine Wei thought about this, and then looked at the coquettish and flattering niece Wei Xiang, and felt a little sad. She may not know that she is actually just a pawn of the emperor, just like when the emperor was still the prince, in order to get Qin Lang's support, and especially doting on the Qin sisters.

The Qin sisters who have been favored in the palace for more than ten years, what about now?

The court is cold, and it is said that even the supply has been restricted everywhere.

The emperor has recently recruited the Yang family and the Xiao family into the palace. There is no doubt that it is the emperor's intention to win over these two famous families.

······

"absurd!"

Pei Xingjian, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, looked angry and attacked the case.
