When Yun Fenghuang was making arrangements to kill the second and third princes, the previous dynasty also experienced a series of ups and downs.
The new Khan was decided a few days ago, and he is still the son of Xifa, but this person's background is not even as good as Xifa.
Xifa is the daughter of a small tribe from her mother's Hanwei family.
The new Khan's biological mother was simply a slave girl.
She was not favored either, but Xifa drank too much and was too lazy to go to the concubine, so the slave girl accidentally got pregnant. Because Xifa had many heirs, no one paid attention to him.
This slave girl relied on her strong body to serve the nobles and raise children, and she actually gave birth to a male heir.
But again, Xifa had many heirs, and such a son was inconspicuous at all. The Dalan family accidentally remembered it and ordered two people to take care of it. The number of people was inconsistent, so this new khan, although He is also twelve years old. Among ordinary Wei He children, he has grown tall and strong, and he can ride, shoot, hunt and even go to the battlefield. However, he looks short and weak, and his temperament is also used to being bullied. So cowardly.
As for his biological mother, she died in the civil strife after Xifa's death, but the Dalan family of Xifa was lucky enough to survive.
However, the monarch and his ministers discussed it and felt that the Dalan family was from a large family and was said to be quite skillful. If she became the empress dowager of Wei He, the new Khan would not be able to get rid of her. He was afraid that the new Renlan would be married to the imperial dynasty. Shi, is no match for her.
Even if the other party arranges a few nieces and the like to be the new Khan's concubines, then it's really hard to say whose blood will be shed by the next Great Khan.
To sum up, it would be better for this Dalan clan to die.
Not only the Dalan clan, but also Xifa's many concubines, as long as they were from a wealthy family or had means, it would be best if something went wrong in all of them.
Anyway, he is not one of our own, so even if he dies, the country will not feel sorry for him.
After all, the new Khan is only twelve years old. How old can the Dalan family he married be? But you may not be able to fight with your elders.
After discussing a lot of details, the imperial court finally came up with the candidate for the Dalan clan.
Princess Jinxi was the first one to be excluded, and no one even mentioned her. After all, none of the monarchs and ministers wanted to bear the reputation of mistreating the Xiaozong bloodline.
Especially in the current situation, it is not necessary for Jinxi to decline.
Some people mentioned the emperor's daughter before, but after being rejected by Chunjia and punished by the imperial concubine, no one is confused now.
The current candidates are palace maids or distant clan maidens.
Chunjia took the lead in rejecting the daughter of the Yuanzhi clan: "Even if it is a side branch, after all, it is of the blood of my father-in-law Xiang. How can he serve the Yi Di after he is the Emperor Taizu?"
Although many ministers knew that Emperor Yi Di was not an ordinary Yi Di, and many eldest daughters who were in poor circumstances, including their parents, were willing to use this method to obtain courtesy, but the emperor said so and even brought up Emperor Taizu. They also I can only agree.
After all, they had all seen the consequences of provoking the emperor.
It's okay for Chunjia to say that he didn't make up his mind. Since he has made the final decision, it is safer for everyone to applaud.
Then the only choice is the palace maid.
The palace maid Chunjia is acceptable, but the problem is that no matter how the imperial court insults the Great Khan Weihe, they have to admit that the identity of the Dalan family actually has some weight.
Even if the country does not care about it now, who knows what will happen in the future
When Shenzong entrusted Xiaozong to the Ji family, he never imagined that the person who would cause his only legitimate son to die in depression would be the Yue family whom he trusted so much during his lifetime!
Therefore, the candidate for the Dalan clan can be from a humble background, but he must also be devoted to the country, and it is best to leave a lot of clues, so as to prevent the outgoing girl from marrying and being coaxed by Wei He Khan. After giving birth to his own flesh and blood, his position changed and he began to use different methods to play tricks on Guochao... Guochao would not do such a thing as losing his wife and losing troops.
Therefore, the monarch and his ministers discussed it for a while, and they all felt that they could not just pick up a palace maid with good looks, but had to consider their family members, temperament, conduct, character, etc...
As a result, at this time, some ministers proposed to choose from the three nieces raised by the imperial concubine in the palace: "Wei He has gone through years of chaos and his vitality has been severely damaged. The people in his country are also quite resentful of the country. Although many things are not The country rose up, but it is impossible to say it fairly because it is not of my race. Now that the country has won a complete victory, the new khan has also expressed his intention to surrender, and even asked the country to grant a marriage... "
In fact, not yet. After all, the imperial court only decided on the candidate for the new Khan, and then dealt with Wei He's many powerful ministers and powerful families. The matter of the Dalan clan was put aside and has not been mentioned to them yet.
But it doesn't matter, anyway, given the current situation, no matter what they think in their hearts, they can only cry and beg for the Dalan clan after giving an order.
This minister suggested that it would be better to take this opportunity to ease the relationship between the two countries, even if it is just to show Li Shu, so that it can show the demeanor of a great dynasty, not simply to conquer people with force, but to transform people with virtue, right
"As we all know, the Xie family and Wei He have a deep hatred. They were originally a large local clan in Huizhou, but because of Wei He's raid on Huizhou, the combined clan was almost destroyed."
"If the Xie family's daughter-in-law is Wei He Khan, wouldn't it turn conflicts into friendship?"
After hearing this, many ministers looked at this minister with crazy eyes, and glanced at Yin Qu not far away from the corner of their eyes.
After all, after Ouyang Yanran retreated, everyone knew that Yin Qu was the imperial concubine's strongest support in the temple, and he often expressed her opinions on behalf of the imperial concubine.
As expected, Yin Qu's expression was not so good, and he said coldly: "Whenever His Majesty gives an order, Xie will not disobey the emperor's order. Your Majesty is just a kind king, how can you wrong your own people for the sake of a mere barbarian king?"
Everyone nodded slightly. Actually, if they were just ordinary people, whether it was the emperor or the ministers, it would be a grievance if they were wronged.
The key point is that the Xie family is ordinary, but the noble concubine from their family is unusual.
Concubine Min’s nature...
If I knew about this minister's proposal, my whole family would not stop until I was killed!
So everyone remained silent, fearing that they would say something they shouldn't have said at this time and make the imperial concubine bear a grudge.
However, few people came forward to speculate, just to support the imperial concubine. After all, the battle for the crown prince had not officially begun yet, and the situation was not yet clear. The ministers were still cautious in ending the situation.
Besides, even if you have to stand by the imperial concubine, now is not a critical moment. How can you teach the imperial concubine to keep it in mind? You have to choose a time when the noble concubine is helpless to take action, so that you can appear important.
All in all, there was a rare silence these days in the temple.
I only heard the minister say at first: "As we all know, the destruction of Huizhou City was done by Wei He's rebellious minister Hele, but it was not the intention of Xifa Khan. This is one; the second is the death of Xifa Khan , and the death of many of his heirs have a lot to do with the remnants of the Ji family. If we let the resentment of the people in Weihe country boil over, wouldn't we be playing into the hands of the remnants of the Ji family?"
Yes, the general view in the court regarding Xifa's sudden death and subsequent civil strife and cannibalism was obviously designed by someone else. The general view was that this was done deliberately by the remnants of the Ji family in order to incite Wei He to the maximum extent. Hatred for the country.
Because it seems that Xifa is no longer able to turn the tide. It is even rumored that he wants to sell the remaining members of the Ji family in exchange for a chance for peace talks. In this case, from the perspective of the remaining members of the Ji family, Of course, this is the last time to use Xifa.
For Wei He Lishu, the relationship with the country was not good to begin with.
Ever since the old Khan passed away and Mu'e Khan had an accident not long after he ascended the throne, Wei He has not had peace in the past two years, and Li Shu's life has been very difficult.
Then in this kind of difficulty, they will resent the royal family, but they will not have any good impression of the dynasty.
Now that Xifa Khan was gone at the critical moment, it was the people of the imperial dynasty who did the killing. Do they care that Chunjia is also hunting down the remnants of the Ji family? They would only think that it was the people from the Middle Earth who harmed their Great Khan and led to Wei He's decline.
The courtier said, "Under such circumstances, even if the Dalan clan takes advantage of the power of the Celestial Dynasty to marry, they will inevitably be resisted by Wei He. By then, it will be difficult for the Dalan clan to gain a foothold, let alone give birth to Prince Wei He. , I’m afraid it will be difficult to inherit the throne. So what’s the point of my current arrangement?”
After hearing this, the emperor and his ministers pondered for a moment, and then someone came out and said, "In your opinion, what should we do?"
"First of all, let's make it clear that the culprits of the massacre in Huizhou that day must not be spared, but they must not harm the innocent people of Weihe." The minister said slowly, "And these culprits must be in the name of the new Khan. , and his head will be presented to the court."
To be honest, this move is quite vicious. Originally, the new Khan had no basic power and relied solely on the support of the country to rise to power.
As a result, when he first came to the throne, the first thing he did was to betray his compatriots. One can imagine the future fame and prestige of this new khan.
It will definitely be criticized.
But this is a good thing for the country. The harder it is for the new Khan to stabilize his position, the more he needs the support of the country.
"In this way, the new Khan gave an explanation to everyone in Huizhou and avenged the Xie family's daughter. Then, the Xie family's daughter was grateful for his help in revenge, and also remembered the kindness of the country's expedition, so she decided to marry the new Khan as his wife. Dalan clan, isn’t it natural?”
At this time, the entire temple began to think about this matter.
There are no real fools who can be ranked in the temple. Everyone can hear the unfinished meaning of this minister: The people of Weihe are very resentful towards the country now. In fact, they have reason to do so. After all, the war during Xiaozong's time It's been too long, but in the past few years, the country has always had the upper hand, tossing them in every way.
Chunjia just went from being in charge to holding great power. They had already changed several great khans.
Under such circumstances, even if the emperor's daughter and eldest daughter were to decline in the dynasty, it would be difficult for them not to be hostile to them. After all, in their eyes, it was only some people who massacred Huizhou, and even this group of people, in the eyes of many common people in Weihe, deserved it. After all, it was Guochao who sent troops to the grassland first, why couldn't they kill Huizhou
But from a moral point of view, Xie's daughter is undoubtedly a pure victim.
Wei He Lishu faced a surviving woman from a family that was exterminated by them. Especially since this family did not have any high-ranking officials in the government, and had not participated in the suppression of Wei He, it was difficult for them to reach the moral peak both emotionally and rationally. .
In this way, the country and the dynasty can make a big fuss around this point and promote the dynasty's idea of turning hostilities into friendship: China and the mainland have shown good intentions to marry the girls of the entire clan who were killed by Wei He. Isn't this sincerity enough
On the other hand, if Wei He treats the Dalan family, who is a daughter of the Xie family, badly... then forget it, it must be all Wei He's fault!
My whole family has been killed by you, so I still want to marry you, give birth to your children, and take charge of the internal affairs. What else are you dissatisfied with!
Everyone thought about it again and again, and had to admit that if they did not consider the future battle for the prince... this proposal, from the standpoint of the country, was actually fine.
But the problem is that King Qin is already eight years old, and the ministers have to consider the issue of the East Palace anyway.
So after a moment of silence, some ministers who were good friends with the Gu family came out in deep silence to express their opposition to this proposal.
Moreover, the reason for the opposition is directed at human ethics: "All the ladies of the Xie family in the palace are close relatives of the imperial concubine. Their great-grandfathers, great-grandmothers, grandparents, and even their parents were all killed when the city of Huizhou was destroyed. How could such hatred be justified?" Is it possible to resolve the conflict by turning it into friendship? Especially since the imperial concubine has always attached great importance to blood relatives. When the bad news came, the imperial concubine was in agony! Presumably, the ladies raised by the imperial concubine also have the same deep love and righteousness! How can they commit themselves to Wei He and serve the extermination of the clan? Enemy? It was spread out, and they said that the Xie family has no character at all, and the remaining male heirs are fighting life and death on the front line, but the woman only thinks about glory and wealth, and does not care about the blood feud for the sake of the position of the Dalan family!"
