Chapter 1153: Monarch who has no fault in the slightest
In the past two years, he has dealt with state affairs day and night, and cleansing of the court has achieved considerate results. Coupled with his prestige in the civil and military, the imperial throne can be said to have been firmly established.
Except for one thing, so far there was no royal heir.
Apart from the matter of the imperial heir, he can be said to be a monarch who has no fault in the slightest.
The next morning.
A dozen officials headed by the Marquis Weiyuan all admonished Chu Yan, begging him to give birth to an imperial heir as soon as possible, and stabilize the dynasty.
Chu Yan looked at the ministers who were kneeling in a row, and snorted coldly: "Listening to what you mean if I can"t have children, I won"t be worthy to sit on the throne?"
"This official and the others didn"t mean that. We just as the emperor to understand it." Marquis Weiyuan said hurriedly.
Chu Yan: "Isn"t that what you mean? Then what do you mean? If you won"t talk about the imperial heir, you will talk about marrying an empress, as if it is for you to decide. Why don"t you also decide whose n.o.ble consort plaque to be flip to?"
Chu Yan"s voice was the same as before, but ministers who were familiar with him know that in his seemingly plain words, there were stormy waves that may explode at any time. Once it explodes, the consequences were unpredictable.
They started to regret it, they shouldn"t have acted so rashly.
Chu Yan added: "Some stand on the right, some on the left side. I think you have already chosen someone in your heart, why don"t you tell me? Who could be this n.o.ble young lady who can make so many important ministers speak for herself?
Marquis Weiyuan"s back was wet and cold. The emperor looked very gentle on weekdays and seldom said such heavy words.
Today, for this reason, if someone mentions his daughter"s name, Zhou Xi"er at this time, it would be terrible.
He hurriedly winked at the ministers around him and told them to shut their mouths first to avoid getting caught on fire.
A few ministers were not stupid either. After listening to the emperor"s words, no one dared to speak, they all lowered their heads. They dared not touch the inverted dragon scales, nor draw fire on Marquis Weiyuan.
There was silence in the hall, which was also the scene that Chu Yan wanted to see the most. He snorted coldly: "The same thing, there is no need to discuss it again. I have my measure, you all just have to take care of what you need to do, don"t put your eyes and hands in the harem all day long."
After a while of silence, Chu Yan saw that the several ministers kneeling on the ground were soaked with sweat, and said in a low voice, "If you have nothing to do, then retreat!"
When the angry emperor disappeared completely, Marquis Weiyuan got up with the help of two colleagues, kneeling on the cold and hard marble floor made his knees hurt.
He glanced sideways at the direction the emperor had left, and his heart sank to the bottom of the abyss. He never thought that the emperor"s att.i.tude would be like this.
The matter of the establishment of the empress was not discussed once or twice in the court. In the past, the emperor will either avoid or ignore it. This time, why it became like this?
Could it be that Zhou Xi"er angered the emperor?
Impossible, if Zhou Xi"er angered the emperor, the emperor would have ordered someone to send her out of the palace a long time ago, so why keep her in the palace?
"Master Weiyuan, what"s wrong with you?" Master Zhang stepped forward and asked Marquis Weiyuan, who was in a daze.
Zhuo Zongyuan, the Marquis of Weiyuan Hofu, returned to his senses and smiled at Master Zhang: "It"s nothing, hurry up." He walked out first, followed by a large number of courtiers.
The marquis t.i.tle of the Zhuo family has been pa.s.sed down for hundreds of years, and the forces in the capital were deeply rooted. Successive emperors treat the Zhuo family differently.
Zhuo Zongyuan can be said that since entering the officialdom, he has never received the indifference of the emperor.
