Of course, those important ministers who can marry the emperor are not randomly selected, and not every official can do so. First of all, they are basically military generals, especially those who have a certain influence in the army. There are no civil servants, but most of them are bachelors or the like.
However, I don’t know what the emperor thought. The four sons born in the middle palace are not within this range. The father of the princess who died of illness last year was just a small director of the Ministry of Etiquette. Princess Rui's family is a little higher, but her father is just the minister of the Ministry of Justice. As for King Jing, the concubine's father was a fellow scholar in Jingying.
The Princess of Shu has the highest family status, and she is only the deputy censor of the censorship station. On the contrary, the Yue families of Prince Ji and Prince Teng were both from military families. On the contrary, Princess Ji and Princess Teng both had at least a second-grade military attache in their families. It was said that Princess Ji was the daughter of an earl.
Huang Qiong understood what the emperor had done. To put it bluntly, there were no sons who could inherit the throne, and marriage was used by him as a sacrifice in exchange for power. But as long as there is a little hope, his son may succeed to the throne, but the concubines he marries are all middle and lower-level officials, and they are basically civil servants.
With the possibility of inheriting the throne, the Yue family is basically unlikely to have any influence in the court, which avoids the possibility of relatives interfering in politics. There is no son who can inherit the throne, although the status of the Yue family is higher. But without the possibility of ascending to the throne, the military power in the father-in-law's original hands was taken back again, and it was impossible to think about anything.
Moreover, once these vassal kings became vassals, they would be thousands of miles away from their in-laws. They were under the emperor's surveillance, so it was difficult to even communicate with each other. These vassal kings themselves competed with each other and even disliked each other. It is even less possible to stand on a united front against his successor.
Through marriage, those officials, especially the so-called families of military commanders, can be divided and disintegrated. By choosing different sons-in-law, these military general families are unable to form a unified alliance due to competing interests. In this way, he cleverly regained his rights and fulfilled the dignity of the veteran.
Even Huang Qiong cannot say that this move of the emperor is not ingenious. Pulling and beating made it impossible for the generals to unite, making it easier for them to control them. It's just that Huang Qiong is somewhat unclear whether the emperor's move was related to his own early experience.
Anyway, Huang Qiong now knows that the royal concubine whom King Yong is about to accept will definitely have a high family status according to this convention. I once heard Jia Quan say that if the palace had not been seriously ill, you, King Yong, would have gotten married this year. When you are about to get engaged, you, King Yong, proposed to take in your concubine first. Aren't you publicly slapping your in-laws in the face?
Not to mention that the old man will never agree, even your future father-in-law will probably be very angry. It's not that Huang Qiong is over the top, but that King Yong is swearing and recalling the love story, so he really can't believe that he brought this Jing Niang home and used him as an ordinary maid.
If that was really the case, not only would he not have to expend so much effort, but even Huang Qiong would not agree to being beaten to death. Judging from King Yong's current expression, he is probably quite annoyed because he cannot give Jing Niang the position of royal concubine in his heart. If he could make the final decision on this matter, he would probably decide the title by now.
People are like this sometimes. They originally thought they were charming and suave, walking among the flowers without even a leaf touching them. But often times, it falls into the hands of an ordinary girl. And the more this kind of person is, the more stubborn he will be after marriage. For his wife, he can be described as "three thousand pamperings".
In Huang Qiong's previous life, there was a college classmate who was very good at playing, and he was like this. The family is a well-known real estate developer in the country, and it can be said that they are not ordinary rich. When I was studying, I drove a luxury sports car worth tens of millions. She is often surrounded by a group of beauties who are at least not at the level of school beauties, but are also little stars.
When I was in college, although I couldn't say that I was a womanizer, I could still be considered extremely romantic. Even on campus, there is a nickname for everyone’s husband. Although it is not as exaggerated as Yongwang, after all, the power of the Internet in the previous life was too great, and it might be famous all over the world, but it is not much better than the current Yongwang.
Everyone guessed that this guy was either marrying a big star or the daughter of another rich man to strengthen his family, or he might be suffering from some disease that starts with the word "love" in the future. As a result, no one expected that within two years of graduation, this guy would fall into the hands of an ordinary female doctor in a third-rate hospital.
The female doctor was not only one year older than him, but her appearance was that of an ordinary person, and her family background was that of an ordinary person. But this kid didn't know what evil he was possessed by, he was so obsessed that he seemed to be crazy. Not only did she send flowers every day, but she also stalked and took the initiative to pick up and drop off people when commuting to and from get off work, not taking their cold faces seriously at all.
They even almost broke up with their own family just to be together. After finally catching up with him after a lot of effort, his whole person seemed to have changed. Not only did he cut off contact with all his girlfriends, but after getting married, he still stayed at home doing laundry and cooking. I will definitely not go to any social gatherings if I can. As soon as I get off work, I will definitely go home to be with my wife and children.
Even when he occasionally went out to socialize, he would take his wife with him. From a playboy who spent a lot of time in flowers, he quickly transformed into a good husband. You know, this young master has never had his fingers touched by spring water since he was born. Even when I went to college, I had a lot of nannies and caregivers with me. After getting married, he actually washed his hands and made soup for his wife.
It was because he had learned from the past that Huang Qiong was not surprised by King Yong's current "in love" expression. It's just a pity that some things are different in the past and present, but some things are still similar in the past and present. There are similarities between the two people, but there are also many differences.
That classmate of mine, in the 21st century, where well-matched families were not too particular, encountered so much resistance when he wanted to marry a girl from an ordinary family that he almost broke up with his family. If he hadn't been resolute and even hesitated to wait a moment before telling the truth and secretly obtained the certificate with the female doctor, the outcome might have been uncertain.
In the previous life, the son of a rich man married an ordinary girl, and everything was in trouble. What's more, in this era, King Yong's identity is not as simple as a rich man. He is still the prince of the Great Qi Dynasty. He can be said to be the kind of person who stands at the top of the food chain in this era, and he has chosen this time when he is about to get engaged.
If his move destroyed the emperor's thinking, would the emperor be able to pass it? This emperor of mine is not the kind of person who can be fooled by just a few words. Not only is he very shrewd, but he also won't make any changes easily to the things he wants to determine, even for his own son.
The most important thing is not these, the most important thing is that this girl is still the daughter of the "criminal minister". But Huang Qiong still remembers what the emperor said that day. The emperor, who obviously knew the inside story of the case, had no intention of clearing the grievances of Song Gongliang's family. Although he did not kill them all, he still asked Huang Qiong to raise them until they grew old.
He had even named them, and he didn't want the brothers and sisters to leave his Hejian County Prince's Mansion. No matter how disgusted Huang Qiong was with the emperor's attitude, at least he didn't dare to violate it now. With this attitude in front, how could he agree to this matter? Song Gongliang's case involved more than just one prince. How could the emperor agree to involve another prince?
Also, according to the so-called ancestral system, let alone the prince and his concubine. She is the prince's concubine, and she is also a woman who wants to be clean. After this girl was now a "criminal official" who was sold into slavery by the officials, the emperor would not agree even more. Although the emperor had ordered him to find them and free them from slavery, after all, he was still the queen of the guilty ministers.
At this time, the emperor not only disagreed with Yong Wangcun's thoughts. If he felt that King Yong's move had ruined his plan, he might even cause other troubles. Apart from anything else, sending Song Zhihuan's brothers and sisters to that wild corner to fend for themselves was just a matter of a word from the emperor.
Moreover, the emperor had no intention of clearing the grievances of Song Gongliang's family, so the woman's identity as the guilty minister would have to be carried from now on. How could King Yong's future father-in-law really sit back and watch? And according to Yong Wang's description, this woman is a person who is soft on the outside but strong on the inside. She is not someone who can be forgotten at any time if Yong Wang wants to play with her.
A single woman, alone in a low-class brothel, was drunk with mist wine. In order to protect her innocence, she dared to fight to the end and even harmed herself. If King Yong really wants to just play it off, he will cause something out of control.
But with King Yong's current attitude, he clearly doesn't want to give up. Thinking of this, Huang Qiong, who had a headache, could only explain the pros and cons to King Yong clearly. But what Huang Qiong didn't expect was that after listening to Huang Qiong's analysis, King Yong said stubbornly: "Lao Jiu, don't persuade me."
"I have thought about this matter for a long time. You are right. The princess chosen by the old man for me is the daughter of Nanyang Bohe Shiliang, the current deputy envoy to the palace. Their family is a family of military generals. I heard that she was During the Huaiyang Incident, he was the first general among the Eight Yulin Army to defect to the old man, and their family is quite influential in the army."
"Their family is a family of military commanders. There is a famous saying in their family, that is, men and women can not study, but they must not not practice martial arts. I heard that the wild girl in their family is the wife that the old man has chosen for me. She used to live on the street. The seven or eight gangsters who came to adjust her breathing without recognizing her identity were beaten until their muscles were broken and their bones broken."
"And there is an unwritten rule in their family, that is, regardless of son or son-in-law, no matter who the marriage partner is, no one is allowed to take concubines, even the prince. There once was an aunt in their family who married Emperor Lizong The third son, King De. King De, who was domineering and domineering before marriage and even more ridiculous than me, ended up not even daring to raise a foreign wife until his death."
"Also, your judgment is not wrong. My father-in-law not only served in the Eighth Army of the Royal Forest, but also served as the deputy envoy of the Imperial Palace Department for eight years. The military attache he brought out was The frontier army and the four major battalions account for at least 30%. He has been working for too long, and the old man is planning to exchange my marriage for his official career."
"Their family is now regarded as the number one military general family in Da Qi, and the family tradition is like that, and the whole family is very arrogant. In order for my father-in-law to hand over his power smoothly, the old man will never agree to my being here. At this time, it is not allowed to marry a concubine, not even a well-established concubine. In this matter, I know that I know better than to do it. "
