The next day.

Zhao Yan general Xiao Jingye, Kong Moshan, Yang Xinghuai, Shangguan Buyue, Pan Wenyue, Liu Chao and six others recruited into the Chuigong Hall.

At present, these six people are the mainstay and opinion leaders of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

As long as they nodded, civil and military officials would basically not object.

After laying the foundation for many things about the New Year's Day celebration and holding a full moon banquet for his son, Zhao Yan talked about Guan Juer's story.

"My dear friends, in addition to the New Year's Day ceremony and the full moon banquet, I am also planning to do something to marry Guan Juer into my royal family with the courtesy of a virtuous concubine!"

The ceremony of a virtuous concubine?

Hearing these four words, Xiao Jingye and the other six frowned.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the highest-ranking concubine in the harem was the queen, who had not yet been enthroned, but everyone knows that the queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty must be the current Concubine Yun Guilu Nianwei.

There are four quotas under the queen, namely the Imperial Concubine, the Shu Concubine, the De Concubine, and the Virtuous Concubine, which are equivalent to the first-rank title.

Next, there are many levels of nine concubines, Jieyu, talented people, and Cainu.

If you marry Guan Juer as a concubine on the New Year's Day, you will definitely announce Guan Juer's family background to the world.

But what is embarrassing is that Guan Juer's life experience is a bit shameful.

First, Guan Juer's identity was once a spy from Goryeo.

Secondly, she was well-known to the public in Changdan Tingyuxuan.

Neither of these identities can be put on the table.

If you inform the world, it would be a complete slander of the Great Zhou royal family.

The dignified Emperor Zhou emperor wanted the Ming Dynasty to marry a girl from a brothel as a concubine. Zhao Yan's ancestors had never done such a thing, and it was recorded in history later, which also had an impact on Zhao Yan's reputation.

"Your Majesty, you must not. It is against the royal etiquette that you have brought Miss Guan into the palace. I have turned a blind eye to you. If you hold a marriage with the ceremony of a virtuous concubine on the New Year, you may have a reputation for being lewd and indecent in the history books of later generations!" Xiao Jingye bowed, feeling quite excited.

He was not an exaggeration, this matter was too important to an emperor's reputation.

As an emperor, you can secretly eat fishy food, and the people can also discuss it, but once it is recorded in history books, it will be a huge stain.

"Your Majesty, what the Prime Minister Wen said is reasonable. No matter how good Miss Guan Ju'er is, she should not be granted the title of Virtuous Concubine!" Kong Moshan, who was standing beside him, continued.

"I'm going to discuss it." The other four people also bowed.

Zhao Yan couldn't help but curl his lips slightly. He had never seen these six people agree with each other during the court meeting.

call!

Zhao Yan let out a long sigh, wanting to perform a dragon-defeating robe, but found that he was wearing only casual clothes.

He thought for a while and said, "Everyone, you still don't understand me! As a man, my woman has suffered such a great grievance. Shouldn't I be comforted? She gave birth to a daughter for me, and she is completely worthy of the name of a virtuous concubine..."

"Your Majesty, there are many kinds of comfort, such as money, clothing, rouge, water powder, etc. There is no need to perform the ceremony of a virtuous concubine!" Shangguan said loudly.

...

These six old stubborn people talked about it in a verbal way, but in fact, they only expressed one point of view.

You can compensate Guan Ju'er in any form, but it is not feasible to face the rituals of the world's virtuous concubines.

Zhao Yan had a sip of tea and felt that he could not communicate with these six old men at all.

In his eyes, this kind of status is more important than any gift. If he does not re-issue it for Guan Juer, he will not be considered a man.

This is like the modern urge to marry. Parents think that when you are old, you should find a girl to marry and live a life.

As for what you said, love, appreciation, and having something to talk about, parents don’t care at all, and they don’t think these are important.

After half an hour of discussion, no result was found. Zhao Yan claimed that he thought about it again and then asked the six people to retreat.

It was almost dusk, Xiao Zijie and Kong Ze came.

"Your Majesty, I have decided to do it together. There is a plan to help Your Majesty and the Queen of Virtue go on a normal wedding." Kong Ze said with a smile.

"What strategy?" Zhao Yan asked curiously.

Xiao Zijie thrust his chest and said, "The Overlord is hard!"

Zhao Yan gave him a blank look: "Xiao Zijie, if you use idioms again, I will drive you out immediately and speak well!"

Xiao Zijie scratched his head and said with a smile: "On the day of the New Year's Day celebration, my father and six must be quite busy, and drinking must be indispensable to entertaining civil and military officials and foreign envoys at noon."

"At that time, we will try to get them drunk and then organize the wedding of His Majesty and the Empress. Although the ceremony will be a little simpler, it will definitely be carried out normally!"

Zhao Yan thought for a while and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Although it's a foolish move, it's still feasible. But Shangguan is unhappy and doesn't drink!" Zhao Yan said again. He will do his best to stop Shangguan's stubborn personality.

Kong Ze showed a smirk on his face and said, "Just tie him up!"

"Haha, although it's a bit nonsense, I think this can be done in the new year." Zhao Yan was about to laugh out loud.

How boring it would be if life runs on the established track!

"But Your Majesty, after things are done, you must let me hide! Otherwise, my father will beat me to death!" Xiao Zijie said with a lip and he became a little coward when he mentioned his father.

"No problem. As long as you do your job well, I will support you all the consequences!"

Hearing this, Kong Ze and Xiao Zijie suddenly became energetic. With this golden word, they could do whatever they wanted.

Five days before the New Year, Changdan City was brightly lit, and the night was as daytime as it was very lively.

Foreign envoys from Goryeo, Hei Khan, Vientiane, Beimeng and other countries have all arrived.

They came to Dazhou because after the audience, Dazhou had a lot of gifts to return; on the other hand, if they did not come, Dazhou would cut off their foreign trade economic channels, which would be almost fatal to their country.

The foreign envoy of Liuhai Country is still Natsume Yukiko.

The reason why she came as usual was to express that Liu Hai did not want to go to war with the Great Zhou.

And if the two sides really start a war, Liuhai Kingdom is already preparing.

The envoy of Northern Montreal was the counselor Xiong Shen, and the picture "Recognizing the Ancestors and Returning to the Country" was still in his bedroom.

He felt that he was completely seeking death when he handed over to Dazhou now. He was going to send someone to Dazhou when he was about to leave Dazhou so that he could still save his life.

This year was the year when the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty truly stood up and became human beings.

On the street, children run and do business and keep shouting, and the storefronts are decorated with lights.

The trellis is even more crowded and bustling.

As Kong Moshan said, the number of tiles in a city can completely reflect its prosperity.
