Chapter 15 Patriarchal Clan (1)

"Not to mention An Suqiu, she is the emperor's biological cousin, no matter how weak the emperor's affection for her is, for the sake of Xiaojun... the little princess and his biological mother, he will definitely not wrong her."

"As for Yu Linglong, she is the daughter of the Yu clan, the Empress Dowager's niece, and Empress Xia's good sister. It can be said that her family background and appearance are the biggest threat to the palace."

Min's side is suffering from a headache, and An Suqiu and Tang Xueman's side are also non-stop.

After all, the harem is no better than the palace. When Jin Mingxuan was promoted to the mansion, he also changed the fate of all the female relatives.

From now on, the territory they fight for will be limited to the one-third of an acre of land in the palace, but the entire harem, and even the entire world.

For several days in a row, all the female family members of the palace lived in the Chonghua Palace. During the day, led by the Min family, they went to the Qianqing Palace Square to cry and mourn.

The first emperor had a great funeral. According to the old system, the first emperor changed the day to the month, and replaced the three-year mourning with 27 days.

King Qing Jin Mingxuan was officially enthroned in the Hall of Supreme Harmony (commonly known as "Jinluan Hall") in the Forbidden City after 27 days of mourning.

When Linglong heard the year name 'Jiaqian', the corners of Linglong's mouth couldn't help twitching.

Jiagan, add more money, those who don't know think how poor the emperor is, or sell it out, and he will only serve if the rich woman gives him more money.

When the new emperor Jin Mingxuan came to the throne, the first thing he had to do was to honor the late emperor's biological mother and the late emperor's widow, and then he could confer titles on his wives and concubines and allocate palaces.

However, it was on the issue of titles that the new official Jin Mingxuan had a fierce conflict with the courtiers.

Just because on the issue of conferring honor, Jin Mingxuan's biological mother, An Shi, demanded that the mother should be honored by the son, and honored herself as the Holy Mother Empress Dowager.

As soon as this request was made, one stone immediately stirred up waves.

It must be known that Jin Mingxuan is not the biological son of the Empress Dowager, let alone the biological brother of the Emperor Daxing, but the emperor who inherited the Datong from a side branch.

According to the etiquette of this era, the emperor who came into the heir from a side branch had to abandon the Xiaozong and enter the Dazong as an adoptive successor.

For example, the empress dowager's husband, Emperor Xiaozong, is the eldest son of the Jin family, and the lineage of King Qing is the second wife of the Jin family. Now that the eldest son's son is dead, and facing the situation of no successor, he needs to adopt a son from the second wife to inherit the family business, then This adopted son must recognize the eldest son, Emperor Xiaozong, as his father and the Empress Dowager as his mother, while his own biological parents can only be regarded as uncles and aunts, which is in line with the Confucian legal system.

Now that Jin Mingxuan has inherited the status of Jin's first family, of course he has to abandon his second family's parents and recognize the eldest family's Xiaozong as his father and the Queen Mother as his mother.

In order to inherit the great lineage from a side branch, one must abandon the parents of the Xiaozong family and become the parents of the Dazong family. This practice of killing the natural blood relationship between parents and children may seem a little unnatural to modern people, but it was commonplace in ancient times.

Because the most important system in ancient times was the patriarchal system, the core of which was the eldest son inheritance system. Under the cover of this system, the patriarchal system was higher than blood.

For example, the identity of a mother, a child of a concubine has two mothers, one is the aunt and the other is the biological mother.

From the point of view of blood, of course the birth mother is the closest, but in terms of legal status, the status of the patriarchal aunt is much higher than that of the birth mother in blood.
