Counterattack of the Cannon Fodder Chambermaid

On this day, there was another quarrel in the court over the canonization of the former empress.

Recently, this matter has become a cannon barrel that explodes if it gets touched. As long as it is mentioned, it will cause quarrels, and the quarrels will never end.

The ministers expressed their opinions, some said that they should follow the last emperor's edict, while others said that this was against the norms of ethics.

Those who hold the ethical guidelines are often old ministers, with rigid thinking, pedantic, and firmly believe that the old and the young are orderly, there is no difference between the superior and the inferior, the father is the father, and the mother is the mother... Ethics are often the foundation of the human world as the basis for advancement , all human rules and codes need to be determined according to ethics... If there is no ethics, there will be no rules and regulations. When the father does not have the father, the son does not have the son, the up does not go up, and the down does not go down, the world will be in chaos...'

This set of rhetoric has been fired by these people recently, and some ministers who are not pedantic can say a few words.

Because these words are indeed reasonable, every time they encounter such remarks in favor of the Yizhao faction, they are quite at a loss. Today, just as the Yizhao faction was cramped, a civil official came out, his words were concise, but hit the nail on the head.

What are the three principles? They are the ruler and minister, father and son, and husband and wife. The ruler guides his ministers, the father guides his son, and the husband guides his wife. Why bother fighting over such a simple matter!

This statement is quite rogue.

People who say that the principles of ethics are normal mean that we should act according to ethics, that father is father and mother is mother. This is irrefutable. If you don't act according to ethics, the rules will be messed up in the future.

These words are aimed at Emperor Jing, meaning that he must be filial, follow the ethics, canonize the late queen as the Queen Mother, and refute the late emperor's edict, after all, the late emperor's edict is against ethics. If you don't abide by it, you will lose your filial piety.

Even if no one said it clearly, everyone understands this truth.

Emperor Jing also understood.

And what this civil official said was also the code of ethics, but from a different perspective, what are the three cardinal guides, the ruler guides his subjects, the father guides his son, and the husband guides his wife. When the king ordered his ministers to die, the ministers had to die. The father is the guide for the son. In front of the father, the son must obey. The husband is the guide for the wife. The wife must obey the order of the husband.

The first emperor was not only a king, but also a father, or a husband. Why didn't you listen to the late emperor? The new king wants to be filial, but he can't disobey the king's order and father's order, so why do you blame the emperor with morals.

Both arguments are reasonable, and the reason is the same, that is, the viewpoints are contradictory. The public says the public is right, the woman says the woman is right, and each has its own reasons, so a protracted round of tug-of-war of saliva begins.

However, Emperor Jing, who was supposed to be able to make a decision on his own, has not made any remarks because of the subtlety of the situation.

Because the matter of the former empress has not been settled, the canonization of the new monarch and concubines and the transfer of the former emperor's concubines to the palace are still on hold.

Although Emperor Jing had ascended the throne, he still lived in the East Palace with his family.

Regarding what happened to her aunt this time, Xiao Shi was also very indignant at the beginning, thinking that the first emperor was really unrighteous, he died as soon as he died, and even issued such a deceitful will before he died.

But after a long time, because the aunt's canonization has been deadlocked, and his own canonization has not been mentioned in the regulations, Xiao became anxious.

The Xiao family also sent someone to the East Palace to ask her to say something nice in front of Emperor Jing. Firstly, she couldn't speak in front of Emperor Jing, and secondly, her current status was extremely embarrassing.

When the Xiao family came again, the Xiao family complained.

The people from the Xiao family were naturally Xiao's own mother, including the nominal aunt, Mrs. Xiao Er, who also came here. They also took back Xiao Shi's words, and now Xiao Shi's status is embarrassing, say she is a crown princess, her husband is already an emperor, let alone a crown princess, there has never been a canonization. Now the palace is only called Empress Xiao, but what kind of empress is it? Empress so much.
