Chapter 44 The Empress Dowager's Dream Broken (2)

At this moment, the leader who opposes Jin Feng is the Empress Dowager's younger brother and Linglong's father Da Sima Yujiayuan.

Yu Jiayuan held an ivory wat in his hand, and said proudly: "I think that since the emperor entered the Datong with a side branch, he should respect the Dazong, recognize the Emperor Xiaozong as his father, the Queen Mother as his mother, and the first emperor as his brother. If you want to respect the Queen Mother, you can only respect the Emperor Xiaozong." How can you respect your own birth mother when you honor the Great Zongmu?"

An Shanhai, An's elder brother, Minister of Rites, jumped out and retorted: "What Da Sima said is wrong. Our Great Zhou Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety. The old side concubine conceived and gave birth to the emperor in October. I have contributed to the royal family. If you don't honor the Queen Mother , wouldn’t it be against the filial piety of a ruler?”

But Yu Jiayuan said: "The emperor abandoned Xiaozong and became the heir to Dazong, so he broke the relationship with Xiaozong's parents. Even if the emperor wants to uphold filial piety, he can only be filial to the queen mother and respect the queen mother's palace alone. Only in this way is it in line with etiquette. "

He did not back down and said: "In the past, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty entered the lineage of Emperor Zhaodi of the Han Dynasty with a side branch, and only respected Emperor Zhao's wife Shangguan as the Empress Dowager, but he did not make his grandfather Prince Li, who died innocently due to the evil of witchcraft, as emperor. He never made his biological mother, Wang Wengxu, the Queen Mother, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty is wise and wise, and he still takes care of the righteousness of the patriarchal clan.

An Shanhai retorted: "Han Xuandi is Han Xuandi, the emperor is the emperor, and the dynasties are different, how can they be confused?"

"What's more, the Western Han Dynasty was not an emperor who had no side branch to enter the Datong and named his own parents and grandparents. Zhao Feiyan, the queen of Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty, "swallowed the emperor's grandson", which made Emperor Cheng cut off his sons and grandchildren, so he had to pass the throne to a side branch. Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty."

"After Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty succeeded to the throne, he honored Chengdi's mother, Wang Zhengjun, as Empress Dowager, Empress Chengdi Zhao Feiyan as Empress Dowager, and also honored his grandmother Fu Zhaoyi as Empress Dowager, and his biological mother Ding as Empress Dowager. In the situation of respecting each other, now the emperor only wants to respect his biological mother as the Queen Mother, and respect the two palaces of the original queen mother, so why not?"

Note——(Empress Dowager is the variant title of the Empress Dowager, and the Emperor Dowager is the variant title of the Empress Dowager. Although the titles are different, the power status is exactly the same as that of the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager.)
After hearing this, the emperor raised his voice and said, "Since there is the example of Emperor Ai of Han Dynasty, it's all right to confer the title of the Holy Mother Empress Dowager, right?"

Yu Jiayuan sneered and said: "Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty not only violated the clan legislation, favored male Dong Xian, but also indulged his relatives to be domineering. In the Yurou Township, the Western Han Dynasty was full of smog. He is a notorious faint emperor in history. Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty is such a wise emperor. If you don’t follow suit, An Shangshu encourages the emperor to follow the example of a foolish emperor like Emperor Ai of Han, what is his intention?”

"You—" An Shanhai was at a loss for words.

He took a deep breath and said: "Emperor Ai of the Han conferred the honor of his biological mother and grandmother, and created a situation where the four palaces are respected at the same time. It is certainly inappropriate, but this time the emperor just wanted to honor a holy mother and empress dowager. Why does Da Sima hold on to four queen mothers?"

He paused, and then said: "Furthermore, there are queen mothers and queen mothers. The current queen mother is the birth mother of the first emperor. Xiaozong Zhenggong is naturally the honorable mother empress dowager. The old side concubine is considered the queen mother , the status can’t surpass her, and the two palaces are honored together, since the patriarchal clan is respected, and the emperor’s filial piety to his biological mother is fulfilled, it can be said to be the best of both worlds.”
