10. The so-called succession without succession

"Brother, do you know the story of Emperor Shizong of the Ming Dynasty?" Zhao Wanyong tilted his head and looked at Hong Jinglai.

"The story of Ming Shizong? Could it be..."

Considering the current situation, Hong Jinglai will definitely understand! If you don't know this, then you are still playing with a hammer. The story of Ming Shizong told by Zhao Wanyong must be a dispute over the great rites, that is, the legal issue of the small sect succeeding the big sect.

There is no need to go into details about what the Great Ceremony Meeting is. Basically, it should be clear that everything here should be unclear. On the surface, it is to compete for the political status and treatment of the king, but in fact it is the political struggle that will inevitably occur when a dynasty changes.

Dirty shit.

"There is a saying that Shixiong should know, 'Succession to authority without heirs!'".

What does it mean to "succeed the line without heirs!"

That is, Emperor Jiajing came to inherit the imperial line of Emperor Xiaozong, not to inherit the heirs of Emperor Xiaozong!

You are both an emperor and a father.

Because of the special nature of the emperor's position, someone must be responsible for it. The world cannot be without an owner. But if you are a father without a son, then you are not living up to your expectations. So I, Zhu Houcong, will be the emperor, but I don't recognize you.

As a father, it's none of my business if you decide to have an heir. I'm just here for the throne.

If your son Zhu Houzhao doesn't live up to your expectations, you can blame him. If his seedless watermelon dies, you father and son will meet and tear it apart.

Of course, Zhao Wanyong's mention of Jiajing's bad things here was not to discuss it with Hong Jinglai, but to raise his head and clarify his purpose.

"Presumably soon there will be envoys to express their gratitude to Yanjing to take photos of Zhuang and present the Crown Prince (that is, Si Mou Crown Prince) and other items." [Note 1]

"What do you mean, brother?" Hong Jinglai already knew in his mind.

"As expected, Deputy Ambassador Xie En is you, Brother Shi!" Zhao Wanyong did not mince words.

"It is indeed possible..." If Hong Jinglai could get a job as an envoy to the Qing Dynasty before being promoted, it would be another nice addition to his resume.

You must know that Hong Jinglai came from an excellent background and has already had a brilliant experience of "side service". Now he can be regarded as a "knowledge of military affairs and civil servants". If there is any war in the future, Hong Jinglai will definitely be the first to take command.

If you add a layer of gold of "sending the Qing Dynasty", you will have the experience of negotiating with China (the mission to Japan is considered to be with the barbarians, and the Li Dynasty did not really recognize this kind of mission experience). In the future, when handling national government affairs, North Korea will be used

In terms of geographical location, it is certainly impossible to completely avoid the Qing Dynasty. It is necessary to have some understanding of the Qing Dynasty.

"Although it has not yet been decided, the envoy has probably been confirmed, and the official Cao Jin will participate in the judgment." Xiao Zhao's sources of information are wider than Hong Jinglai's. This is determined by his background and cannot be compared for the time being.

"Li Cao Jin is a judge." It was Jin Zuchun's younger brother, Jin Mingchun, who was the former observer of Xianjing Road.

Last year, Jin Zuchun was transferred back to Hanyang to assist Jin Zuchun in controlling the power of officials and officials. Jin Zuchun personally took charge of the military power. Although he served as both a soldier and an official and judge. However, Princess Zhenshun was not dead at the time, so the appointment of senior officials often required competition with secluded factions.

The trip can only be made later.

Naturally, Jin Zuchun would like to focus on fighting against the Uyghur Government and the secluded factions. However, Jin Zuchun has no time to take care of those sesame officials of the fifth rank and below in the capital, and minor foreign officials who are looked down upon by the gentry in Beijing. So he can make the decision for him.

The person in charge of these matters is naturally Jin Mingchun, who serves as the counselor for officials and officials.

Now that the secluded faction has collapsed, there has been a large-scale change in the upper-level forces. As Jin Zuchun's younger brother, Jin Mingshun must be in the first echelon of substitutes. So it is natural to give him a layer of gold and give him a better substitute.

"From my perspective, the Holy Emperor may not agree. This matter will have to be petitioned two or three times or even more before it can be done."

"Brother, I can see clearly." Hong Jinglai chatted with him and waited for him to continue.

"If the Holy Emperor refuses, Brother Shi might as well take advantage of the situation and propose the idea of ​​succession without heirs." Zhao Wanyong finally stated the purpose of his trip.

Kim Myung-soon will definitely adhere to the will of his elder brother Kim Jo-soon and regard Prince Si-mo's overturn as his main goal. In the last years of King Yeongjong's reign, Crown Prince Si-mo's status as crown prince has been restored. Now it is best to go one step further and posthumously be crowned king.

It will be convenient for King Sunjong to recognize his ancestor and return to the clan in the future, and Jin Zushun will master the principles of legal system!

But this is not good news for the Cho family of Pongyang. Once King Sunjong recognizes his ancestor and returns to the family line, Prince Hyojang, who has been posthumously given to King Jinjong, will become the royal father of the ancestor.

Not Grandfather Wang.

The political shield of the Xiao Zhao family is gone!

However, if the method of succession without heirs is used, there will be room for change. The Zhengzong King can inherit both the royal line of Crown Prince Hyojang and the line of Crown Prince Simao in the way of shouldering two sects.

, both sides are considered fathers, both sides are kings, and both sides can be sacrificed and granted titles.

I'm sorry about this, we Hong Jinglai don't dare to agree to it for a while.

"It's not that I won't do it, brother. Since the matter is serious, I will go see Superintendent Fenggao tomorrow and inform him before we proceed."

"..." Xiao Zhao stopped talking.

"I know exactly what you mean, but I'm still sorry." Hong Jinglai knew that Xiao Zhao definitely didn't come here alone, and maybe his father or uncle had said something to him.

Moreover, it is impossible for him to push this matter forward alone. There must be people on Jin Mingchun's side, and even on Jin Zuchun's side, who are testing and pushing forward.

Xiao Zhao is not disappointed at all. He is a person who knows how to measure things. This kind of thing is a bit forced. The only one who can really make the decision is Jin Zuchun. It's not like they can just run around here.

.So he stopped talking and drank and chatted with Hong Jinglai, just talking about recent favors and interesting things during his tenure in Jeolla.

After sending the people away, Hong Jing went back to the room and sat down alone, thinking again.

The separatist faction had just fallen, and Jin Shichun's daughter had just been sent to the Zhao family to become Zhao Yinyong's wife. However, in order to grasp the supreme orthodoxy and political principles, Jin Zuchun had to honor and mourn the crown prince.

Inevitably, the Fengyang Zhao family, who was one of the most powerful relatives in the family, felt a little dissatisfied. Even if the connection between the two was strengthened through marriage, it would be difficult to avoid this happening.

This is true for the Cho family in Pongyang, let alone the Park family in Pannan. In order to overthrow the secluded faction, Park Zongqing and Kim Zushun can cooperate seamlessly, put aside all disputes, and fight against the enemy together.

Now that the separatist faction has fallen, the power of the central government has been shuffled on a large scale. The Andong Kim family has one more share, and the Pan Nam Pak family has one less share. There is no doubt that the two sides will eventually break up and eventually move towards confrontation and struggle.

When will it end?

[Note 1]: It was the former Longchuan floating people who sent the thanksgiving mission. Anyway, the Li Dynasty would send envoys to Daiqing whenever there was an opportunity. On the one hand, it was "loyalty", and on the other hand, it benefited from every mission.
