Chapter 281 Return of the Japanese Empire (Yuan Yi) The word 'Luo' cannot be used indiscriminately
Empress Dowager Li's idea of having the best of both worlds struck Zhu Yijun as a bit whimsical. However, the reason why he thought so was not whether Gao Pragmatic accepted it or not. The most critical issue was how the outer court viewed it.
Gao Luo is Gao Pragmatic's biological son. This is of course clear to the outer court now, but the outer court does not know that Gao Luo is not the son of Huang Zhiting, but the biological son of Princess Yongning.
Oh, now the child has been "adopted" to Her Royal Highness Princess Yongning. In theory, it has nothing to do with the Gao family - uh, no, there seems to be something wrong with this matter. It doesn't seem to be said that it has nothing to do with it at all. After all, the child is still
The surname is Gao...
Oh, in short, this child will definitely not be able to enter the Gao family's genealogy, at least on the surface. That means that even if his surname is Gao, he is not theoretically a member of the "Xinzheng Gao family". Even if his "biological mother"
He is the principal wife of Gao Jingshi. Since Gao Yuan was born before him, he is not the eldest son and should not have the right to inherit.
If this is the case, then the outer court must feel that why Gao Luo can be on an equal footing with Gao Yuan and get a marquis for nothing? This is not only unfair to Gao Pangshi himself. He clearly had the opportunity to be promoted to the title of Duke, but inexplicably...
"Promoted to nobility based on merit" became "divided into nobility based on merit", and it was equally unfair to his eldest son Gao Yuan.
For Gao Yuan, if my father was promoted to a Duke, it would mean that I would also be a Duke in the future. As a result, my father's promotion was not successful, and the credit was shared with his younger brother. In the end, my younger brother became a Marquis just like me.
——Why, I am obviously the eldest son, and all these things are mine from birth!
Seeing Zhu Yijun frowning and remaining silent for a long time, Queen Mother Li became a little unhappy and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhu Yijun sighed, recounted his worries, and then added: "Mother Mingjian, it was her son's idea to let him have a concubine with Yao in the first place, and it was out of consideration for compensation for Yao's concubine. What if
If someone has to do something wrong, then that person is also my son, not Rixin.
If we still have to use this method...to break down his contribution, and with his intelligence, he will naturally know the intention, then how can his son have a clear conscience when facing him in the future?"
Listening to the emperor's words, Queen Mother Li's eyes gradually changed from dissatisfaction to pure seriousness. After a while, she shook her head and said: "The thunder and rain are all your kindness. If he is really as smart as you said, then he should accept it calmly."
There won’t be any resentment... Emperor, are you worried that he will be dissatisfied with this and create any threats?"
"He will not threaten me, not in this life." Zhu Yijun shook his head and said: "But mother, because of this, I cannot ignore the friendship between monarch and minister, let alone let this story of monarch and minister that should be passed down through the ages,
It ended in a breakdown just for a mere title."
Queen Mother Li frowned slightly and said thoughtfully: "Are you so sure that he won't do anything to threaten you?"
"Yes, I am convinced."
At this time, Queen Mother Li discovered that Zhu Yijun used "I" to refer to himself in both sentences, instead of the more common "son" or "I". This means that he is now clearly answering as the emperor.
.
"Hmm..." Empress Dowager Li looked thoughtful and said thoughtfully: "The emperor has been in the world for almost thirty years. He has done many great achievements over the years. I think your current judgments should always have your reasons.
.
Think back to those days, when the late emperor was young and in charge of the dragon, the Ai family and you were just a pair of orphans and a widowed mother, and had no ability to govern. We could only rely on the late emperor's old ministers to survive.
Every time he thought about this, the Ai family could not help but rejoice. Fortunately, it was because of the late emperor's knowledge of people and the blessings of his ancestors that the emperor could grow up peacefully and rule as his own, and he also received the best education.
With ZTE's great situation today.
In short, the Aijia knows that you know how to be a good emperor, and you have your own set of methods to control your subordinates. The Aijia just want to say that Gao Pragmatic has indeed contributed a lot to many major things you have accomplished over the years. He
The friendship I have with you is not comparable to that of another minister...
But because of this, Ai Jia has to remind you: he may indeed be loyal to you, but he is still your subject and the leader of a faction in the court.
Since you are the leader of a group, you must be responsible for the interests of his group, so there will always be times when you actually have conflicts of interest with you. How should you face such conflicts? Should you not give in even an inch, or compromise step by step?
Or have a frank heart-to-heart talk with him and discuss a solution to get the best of both worlds, which all needs to be decided by the emperor himself."
Empress Dowager Li had not spoken to Zhu Yijun about affairs in the DPRK like this for many years, especially when the target was still the most important minister in the DPRK today - none of them were highly pragmatic, and Zhu Yijun had to take it seriously.
After hearing these extremely rare and fair words from Empress Dowager Li, the emperor said sincerely: "The empress taught me that my son knows the importance of this matter..."
Then he changed the subject and brought it back to Gao Luo, saying: "My son thinks it is better to discuss Gao Luo's matter directly with Ri Xin. He and I should not have such a charade, because between us
We are so familiar with each other: what I did, he knows why; what he did, I also know why. In this case, why not talk about it?"
Empress Dowager Li did not express any opinions this time. She just nodded calmly and said: "As long as the emperor has made a decision."
However, after a pause, Queen Mother Li seemed to remember something again, and suddenly asked: "Emperor, do you think the name Gao Luo... has any meaning?"
Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "It has the same name as Chang Luo, but there are so many people in the world named 'Luo'. Speaking of which, his children are all named after Sandianshui, which is somewhat similar to our Tian family.
Like, but everyone in his family has a single name, um... In fact, it is common for people with similar names among their peers to have similar names."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "The Aijia is not talking about three points of water." Empress Dowager Li shook her head and said: "Ordinary people may not have any intention in naming 'Luo', but Gao
Pragmatism is different. His family has been a long-standing official, and he himself is the only six-headed scholar of the Ming Dynasty whom you personally appointed. The Ai family does not believe that he named his son without meaning."
Zhu Yijun couldn't help but frown slightly at this moment, because the word "Luo" is indeed not an ordinary word. If it is used as a name, it can indeed represent some extraordinary meanings. And Empress Dowager Li said "name" so seriously
"This incident can't help but remind Zhu Yijun of his own childhood...
When Zhu Yijun was a child, the relationship between father and son was very tense because his good grandfather Emperor Jiajing believed in the prophecy that "two dragons will never meet". Zhu Yijun's father, who was King Yu at the time, and later Emperor Longqing gave birth to a child but could not get it.
Name given by the emperor.
Zhu Yijun didn't get his name until he was five years old, and it was actually not given by the emperor's grandfather, but by his father, King Yu himself - theoretically this is wrong. Before that, Zhu Yijun had been called "San'er" - he
There are actually two older brothers in front of me.
The eldest son of Prince Yu was named Zhu Yili, and his mother, Princess Yu Li, died at the age of five and was given to Prince Yu as a gift. In the first year of Longqing, he was posthumously named "Prince Xianhuai". The second son of Prince Yu was named Zhu Yiling. He died before he was one year old and was given to King Lantian. In the first year of Longqing, he was given the posthumous title of "Prince Xianhuai".
, posthumously named "King Jingmo".
So to a certain extent, Zhu Yijun was picked up from this world.
But when it comes to names, King Yu actually later felt that it would be impossible to name his "San'er" when Jiajing remembered it, so he simply chose it himself. When he named Zhu Yijun, it was obviously different from before.
The purpose of the two sons.
"鴴" means "ding", so Jiajing had a purpose in naming his eldest son, King Yu. King Yu was also very excited at that time; "Ling", there is no need to explain this, it does not have much political meaning.
However, Jiajing could name his grandson "鴴", and there would be no problem with the country - "ding" - supporting him. But King Yu dared to name his third son "jun", which has meaning.
.
It was already the forty-fourth year of Jiajing. King Yu’s only rival on the road to the throne passed away, and King Jing had no living son. Therefore, King Yu became the only survivor among the eight sons of Emperor Jiajing. This meant that
, the future throne has fallen into his hands without any suspense.
So he called "San'er" and said, "I'll give you a name, Jun. The meaning of this name is that the Holy King controls the world, just like the Jun who controls the instrument. It is of great significance, you should never forget it."
Zhu Yijun is indeed obsessed with it, and he still remembers things that happened when he was five years old very clearly to this day.
Similarly, when Zhu Yijun later named his son, he also followed this method of "incorporating meaning".
When his eldest son was born, although Zhu Yijun did not like Concubine Wang Gong, because he was the eldest son and the child was protected by Empress Dowager Li, Zhu Yijun still named him in a relatively fair manner: Zhu Changluo - this is what he just said
The reason why it is said that Gao Luo "has the same name as Chang Luo".
Luo, Luoshui is also the name. What is the legend of Luoshui? "Book of Changes" says: "The river produces pictures, Luo produces books, and the sages follow them." It means that the Yellow River produces "pictures" and the Luoshui produces "books".
"Sages" make predictions based on this.
Legend has it that during the time of the Fuxi clan in ancient times, a dragon and horse emerged from the Yellow River in Mengjin County, northeast of Luoyang, carrying a "river map" and dedicated it to Fuxi. Fuxi developed the Bagua based on this, which later became the source of the "Book of Changes". It is also said that during the reign of Dayu,
A magical turtle emerged from the Luo River in Luoning County, west of Luoyang, carrying "Luo Shu" on its back and dedicated it to Dayu. Dayu succeeded in controlling the floods based on this, and then designated the world as Kyushu.
The world at the time of Fu Xi was not a family world, but the world after Dayu was abdicated, succeeded to his father's throne, and became the founder of the family world. Zhu Yijun's sons are all of the generation with the character "Chang", and the eldest son's name is Luo, so he has
"Family and the world" means entrustment.
But... what does Gao Pangshi mean by naming his eldest son "Luo"? Zhu Yijun suddenly felt that this question raised by his mother was really worth thinking about.
