Chapter 537
Then he also became hardened: "I only speak in terms of hexagrams and images, why do you talk nonsense and alarmist? The emperor asked me the reason for the earthquake on Mount Tai. Isn't it for the purpose of gaining insight into the will of heaven and preventing it before it happens? If the emperor I just want to listen to what is pleasant to hear, and I don’t want to pay attention to the truthful words, so why bother to ask the divination, I just ignore the will of God, please forgive me for not being convinced!"

Qin Tianjian made the emperor more and more furious when he said this, but he said that An Guogong and others were all at ease, even more refreshing than eating iced watermelon in the dog days.

Then a loyal loyalist of Duke An stood up and knelt down to play: "Although it is said that 'the son does not speak strange powers and chaos', I would rather believe it or not, and Qin Tianjian never makes mistakes in divination on a regular basis. Also ask the emperor to take it back!"

With this person as the head bird, soon a large group of people knelt on the hall, asking the emperor to take back his orders.

Even the elders of the cabinet who had been shocked by Tang Shoufu's sudden resignation and return to his hometown in just a few days knelt down, including the future old father-in-law of King Ning and the current cabinet assistant Zhang Ge, of course Zhang Ge Perhaps the old man was more just to avoid suspicion, not because he really didn't want King Ning to be the crown prince, but the other elders absolutely sincerely hoped that the emperor would withdraw his order at least temporarily.

After all, the elders of the pavilion were also born as scholars. Since the day of enlightenment, they believed in the Tao of Confucius and Mencius, and they paid attention to the three cardinal principles and five constant principles. Agree?

Although this matter can be regarded as the emperor's family affairs, everyone knows that "the emperor has no family affairs". If the emperor insists on making him the crown prince even though the heavens have warned King Ning that he is not suitable to be the crown prince, who knows what will happen inside and outside the court afterwards? What kind of chaos will arise in the whole world?They really don't want to watch the emperor go to black on the same road and lose his reputation for more than ten years. Now if he can use the ghosts and gods to make the emperor change his mind, it would be a blessing.

Only Chang Guogong Cheng Enhou and others are still insisting: "Let's not talk about other places, just talk about Mount Tai. How many times does the ground move a few times in a year, and if you have to ask the hexagrams and Qin Tianjian every time, believe in those nonsense. Talking about it, isn't it absurd and absurd in the world!"

He also said: "The emperor is the son of heaven, and His Royal Highness King Ning is the grandson of heaven. If you say that His Royal Highness Ning is not the true son of heaven, are you saying that the emperor is not the true son of heaven? His heart should be punished!"

It's a pity that there are too many people who oppose this time, and what's more, in the court hall, they directly call Chang Guogong Chengenhou "a courtier" and admonish the emperor to "be close to a virtuous minister and stay away from a traitor". Waiting for people soon only have the power to parry, and they have no power to fight back.

Although the emperor was so angry that he could not punish the people, he had to temporarily pardon the envoy of Qin Tianjian, shelved the imperial decree of King Lining as the crown prince, and announced his retirement from the court.

But I didn't expect that this matter would soon reach the ears of Empress Dowager Luo, and she personally went to the Qianyuan Hall to talk to the emperor: "The Ai family knows that because of the previous incident with the Gu family, the emperor complained about the Ai family, so they have been meeting each other for days. They don't want to fight with the Ai family. The Ai family doesn't blame you. Which son in this world doesn't forget his mother after marrying a wife? It's human nature for you to do this. The Ai family didn't want to dislike you at first. , but God has warned Henger not to be a reserve, you can ignore Aijia, but you can’t even ignore God? You just listen to Aijia, follow God’s will, don’t stand up for Henger, or you will anger God , who knows what disaster will come, even if the emperor regrets it by then, it will be too late!"

Most of the civil and military officials are dubious about ghosts and gods because they "don't talk about strange powers and chaotic gods", and they even think it is nonsense. But she firmly believed in this, and she was afraid that she would ignore the warning from the heavens, and the heavens would bring some disaster to the emperor. The emperor was her only son, and she depended on her all her life. She naturally didn't want anything to happen to the emperor.

This is also the reason why she still came to the Qianyuan Hall even though she knew that the emperor had been resenting her for the past few days. It was because the Empress Dowager Luo knew that once the emperor really committed a crime, she would be able to suppress him with filial piety. Other than two, no one in this world can hold him down!
The emperor was being embarrassed by the first half of the Empress Dowager Luo's words, and wanted to say that he did not blame her, and he would never do such a thing as marrying a daughter-in-law and forgetting his mother, so please don't worry too much.

Who knew that Empress Dowager Luo immediately dissuaded him from making King Ning the crown prince, with the same accent as the previous civil and military officials in the main hall. The emperor was already full of anger and didn't know who to turn to. It was all sent to the Empress Dowager Luo. It’s fine if others object to me. You are my own mother. The person who should support me unconditionally, but even you oppose me. Isn’t it telling the whole world that even my own mother They don't even support me. Is it really wrong enough to fail completely enough? !
Yin said in a bad mood: "The harem is not allowed to engage in politics. The queen mother has stayed in the palace for decades. Could it be that everyone doesn't even know about such a well-known thing?"

After all, he was still thinking that this was his own mother, so he restrained himself from uttering bad words, and only yelled at Gao Yuwang angrily: "What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you just serve the queen mother back home?"

Empress Dowager Luo did not expect that she would come here with a good heart for the emperor, but what she got in return was such a simple and rude treatment from the emperor. One sentence: "You dog slave, Aijia will leave by himself, it's not your turn to tease Aijia!"

After scolding Gao Yuwang hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty, Fang looked at the emperor and sneered, "The Ai family knows that the emperor's wings have already hardened, and no one in this world can control you, but don't forget, no matter how noble you are now No matter how great it is, it crawled out of the intestines of the Ai family, and the Ai family can tell you! Don't say anything grandiose like "the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics". Ask yourself, after so many years, when will the Ai family take care of you? I have intervened in the affairs of the previous dynasty. If it wasn't because I was worried about you this time, I was afraid that you would disobey the will of God and offend God, and what disaster would really come down. Bai came here to displease you, and let the already bad mother-child relationship drop to the freezing point? Poor Aijia has a motherly heart, and in the end, it was treated like this by you. What is the point of Aijia staying in this palace anymore? Bai Make people laugh at Aijia being rejected by his son! Aijia doesn’t dislike you anymore, so I pack up and go to Dajue Temple to spend the rest of my life, so as to save a lifetime of hard work. I’ve had enough of the idleness given by others. Get angry with your own son!"

With red eyes and choked up, Aunt Sun, the old lady who came with her, said, "Let's go, we'll pack up and go to Dajue Temple. No matter how hard life is, it's better than staying in this palace and suffering in vain!" After finishing speaking Then he walked out angrily.
