Luo Qi walked into the inner hall of Changsheng Palace under the guidance of the chamberlain.
If Changle Weiyang represents the traditional power of the Han Dynasty, then the Changsheng Palace must be the pinnacle of all technology, art, and culture of the Han Dynasty.
Especially the place where Zhao Feiyan lives is so beautiful that it cannot be described as how beautiful it is.
But no matter how beautiful she is, the owner of the palace is not wearing those complicated crown clothes, but is wearing a simple and slightly loose dark dress with a curved train.
Her skin as white as snow and her delicate face without makeup, against the backdrop of red clothes, become even more charming, and she has an awe-inspiring and inviolable royal aura.
Zhao Feiyan's eyes sparkled when she saw Luo Qi walking in. She leaned on the mat, her jade body spread across the table. Luo Qi glanced at her from the corner of her eye, then ignored her blazing gaze, bowed and said: "I pay my respects to the Queen Mother. Wan'an."
"Young master, you don't need to be polite. Please feel free to sit down. This is not a meeting in the main hall, and there are no historians' records in the hall. The words spoken during it are nothing more than what God knows, earth knows, you know, and I know."
Zhao Feiyan's voice was soft, but with a hint of majesty. People will change after all. Zhao Feiyan, who became the Empress Dowager, with the blessing of power, is no longer the actress and dancer who was manipulated by Wang Mang at will.
Luo Qi was sitting at the bottom. After Gong E filled the cup with tea, she immediately asked: "The Queen Mother has summoned ministers to come here, but what is the important matter?"
Zhao Feiyan withdrew her fiery gaze and asked with a hint of coldness in her voice: "Sir, what did the general mean by what he said today?
This great Han's country was given by God. How could all the people hand him a crown? "
Where does the legitimacy of the emperor's position come from? This is an extremely important question for any king.
Especially in the classical era, the source of imperial power could even determine the rise and fall of a dynasty.
Ordained by God!
This is the answer given by Zhu Xia.
This answer was so advanced that it was extremely advanced. In Rome in the West, it was not until the collapse of the old Roman Empire that the divine right of kings, something similar to being ordered by heaven, was invented.
After modern people have been shouting against heaven for a long time, they always have a misunderstanding. The king who claims to be the son of God has no equal. Only when the king is equal to God is he truly awesome.
But in fact, as early as the time of Diocletian in the Roman Empire, the rulers had proclaimed themselves gods and were born to rule the empire. However, the final results proved that self-proclaimed gods were not as effective as the divine right of kings. The divine right of kings is more powerful than other models. Make the dynasty stable.
The king's natural right is the bottom line of the king, and Luo is also a beneficiary of the king's natural right.
The royal family's special tolerance for Luo Shi and the people of the world's special tolerance for Luo Shi are actually a subconscious idea.
Luo is a descendant of Suwang Shanghuangtian!
Luo Qi said nothing. Of course the Emperor's crown was approved by the Elemental King and the Emperor, but for the Emperor, that was not certain.
"I'm thinking about whether I want the general to continue to be in charge.
Isn't it possible that ministers can achieve great achievements because the monarch gave them trust and power and allowed them to perform their duties?
Why do you think you can get the emperor's crown after you achieve some great achievements?
Please pass these words to the general and say it yourself, I'm afraid it won't end well. "
There was a cold light in Zhao Feiyan's always seductive eyes, and her voice was also extremely cold, and there was even a hint of murderous intent in it. This was the natural opposition in the struggle for the highest power between the Queen Mother and the Great Sima General.
Luo Qi looked around for a few times. Zhao Feiyan understood and asked everyone in the palace to leave the palace.
The female officials and eunuchs in the palace felt that something was wrong. They were alone and alone, and they were also extremely beautiful women and handsome men. If something happened, it would not end well.
But no one spoke. They quietly looked at each other for a few times, and then exited the hall with their heads lowered. Zhao Feiyan then said: "Young master, please tell me if you have anything to say."
There was an inexplicable color on Luo Qi's face, and then her voice was as sonorous as gold and stone, "Your Majesty, what the general said today came from my instruction. This is an oath, an oath made in front of the people of the world.
What you are worried about now will not happen. I will use my life and all my honor to guarantee this.
If there is any violation, I will handle it myself. "
Handle it yourself?
What else can be done is to bring Wang Mang to death together, making all his achievements come to nothing.
No matter what Wang Mang had thought, the moment he made up his mind, he would follow the path he chose, because a Luo family member was guarantor!
Zhao Feiyan frowned deeply when she heard this. Of course she believed Luo Qi, but she didn't believe Wang Mang.
No one in the world knows better than Zhao Feiyan that Wang Mang is not a perfect saint.
She felt uneasy. After all, no matter who came to see Luo Qi, he was closer to Wang Mang but more distant from her.
In the game between her and Wang Mang, she was already at a disadvantage because Wang Mang also had the help of the Queen Mother. If Luo Qi favored Wang Mang in the end, or if Luo Qi remained neutral after Wang Mang betrayed her trust, she would be completely defeated.
How can we guarantee that Luo Qi will definitely be on his side?
It would be great if Luo Qi was willing to be his lover, just like the popular stories about King Luo Wen and Queen Gao. They were willing to have children or elope, even if they handed over the Han Dynasty, it would be nothing.
But Zhao Feiyan knew that although Luo Qi was not a traditional gentleman, this was impossible in a sober state.
Zhao Feiyan believed that it was not Luo Qi who looked down upon her. She was very confident in herself. There could be no man in the world who did not love her but had an affair with the Queen Mother. This was not something Luo could do.
Zhao Feiyan thought for a long time, and there was only one way, and that was marriage, so she said slowly: "Sir, I know that you haven't married yet.
Yu has a sister named Hede who is willing to marry the young master as his wife.
Young Master, there is no need to worry that He De is not worthy of you. Although He De is not the same child as Yu, He De has a peerless appearance, but his face is 99% similar. He is even three points richer than Yu, and he has a good character.
As the saying goes, marrying a virtuous wife, keeping concubines, and being virtuous, with both peerless appearance and upright moral conduct, is a good match for a young master. "
Luo Qi was really stunned now. He was 99% similar to Zhao Feiyan?
Luo Qi couldn't help but glance at Zhao Feiyan again. How could two beauties of this level appear at the same time?
As for Zhao Feiyan's marriage request, Luo Qi had no objections. Since he chose to step out of the family, he was ready for this kind of exchange of political interests.
Don't say that Zhao Hede is as beautiful as Zhao Feiyan. Even if he looks like an ordinary person, he doesn't care. Anyway, his child will still be stunningly beautiful.
Ancestors bless you!
Luo Qi bowed slightly and said: "The Queen Mother proposes marriage, I have no objection, but I am the son of the Luo family, and the marriage requires the permission of the family head. If the Queen Mother is really interested, Qi will go to Xinzhao City and explain the matter to her father.
Zhaocheng will send someone to propose marriage to you, and then choose a good time and auspicious day to marry the two families. "
Zhao Feiyan had a sweet smile on her face, looked at Luo Qi's walking figure, and murmured: "Hede, my sister has found a good husband for you. If you don't help your sister, you really have no conscience."
————
During the period when Wang Mang was in power, there was a famous Luo family member who was beside him to give advice. His name was Luo Qi. He was the protagonist of countless ancient romance novels. This is the only one we know.
We don't know much about the life story of this important figure. We can't even see him in various official historical materials. We can only guess what important role he played from some historical blanks.
It is quite unreasonable that a person who can bring about marriage between the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, a character who has written a lot in unofficial history, and a descendant of a family of historians, has disappeared from the official history.
In this chapter, the author will explore some of the truth through the comparison of historical data, and reveal the true face of this labeled figure. He is not just a romantic person with some scandals, but a person at a key historical node. Scholars who have made great contributions. ——"The Truth in the Fog of History"
