127: The old prince died

The Empress Dowager Qin was very concerned about the marriage of Rong Kang and Qin Linglong, and not many days after the marriage, she asked Qin Tianjian to look at the day, less than ten days after the national funeral, that is, November 25, which is the wedding date, and in the next two months, Xining Wangfu and Qin Xiangfu are in full swing to prepare for the wedding.

This marriage, anyone with a discerning eye knows that it is a political marriage, but the man is now the heir of the Xining Palace, Yuejun Wang Rongkang, and the woman is the sister of the current Queen Mother.

However, Lou Yueqing didn't have the heart to pay attention to these things, because the old prince died.

Soon after the winter, the first snow came, the old prince finally came to the end of his life, after the winter, his body was not as good as a day, he was already terminally ill, this time Lou Yueqing went to the Shen Wangfu every day, just this afternoon, the people of the Shen Wangfu came to report, the old prince was dying, to see Rong Zhi.

Rong Zhi and Lou Yueqing rushed to King Shen's Mansion, and when they arrived, people from Ningguo Mansion also came one after another.

The old prince was already angry, asked everyone to retreat, and then stayed alone with Rong Zhi for about a cup of tea, the two didn't know what to say, even Lou Yueqing couldn't stay inside, and then he went, he went very peacefully.

This old man, who was a brave and warlike and favored prince, began to fight in the south and north at a young age, defended the territory for the Chu country, and made great contributions, and assisted three generations of kings, his father, his brother, his nephew, plus Rong Yan and now the little emperor, he has gone through five generations of emperors in his life, and has worked hard all his life, and has been loyal to the Chu country all his life, and he is also the only one among his many brothers who has been able to enjoy his old age with good fruits, and now, he has finally come to the end of his life at the age of seventy-six.

Now, he is dead without regrets.

But Rao is like this, for his death, everyone was grieved, and for several days, the crying in King Shen's mansion continued.

The old prince died, and Rong Zhi issued an order to drop out of the dynasty for five days, so that the whole country mourned and kept filial piety, so that the Chu State, which was already in national mourning, mourned even more.

On the second day, the people who came to mourn almost stepped on the threshold of the Shen Wangfu, from the royal family to all the officials, generals, and traders who were qualified to step into the Shen Wangfu, and those who could not come in were also kowtowing at the door of the Shen Wangfu before leaving, and even the Empress Dowager Qin came with the little emperor who had just turned half a year old, and in the name of the emperor, she issued an order to posthumously crown the old prince as the protector of the country, in order to express the condolences to the old prince.

Lou Yueqing did not keep filial piety in the mourning hall, because Mrs. Ning Guo couldn't bear the grief and fell into a coma after the death of the old prince, and Lou Yueqing has been taking care of her.

In fact, compared to other people, her sadness is light, when everyone else is crying, she is just silent, not that she doesn't care about the old prince, she treats the old prince as her grandfather, but she is not very sad, because she has long been prepared for this day, and the old prince dies with peace of mind, so there is no need to be heartbroken.

She couldn't come out of the sadness either.

After Mrs. Ning Guo woke up, she was not as painful as others, but she was silent with a sad face, kneeling in front of the spirit of the old prince for a long time, Lou Yueqing did not disturb her, only looked at Mrs. Ning Guo inside outside the mourning hall, her face was calm.

Rong Zhi didn't know when he stood beside her.

Lou Yueqing turned her head to look at him, her eyes moved slightly: "Why are you here?"

Rong Zhi's face was calm, without any sadness, and he slowly spoke: "Come and accompany you!"

He was not as heartbroken about the death of the old prince as others, and he was not a person who leaked his emotions, even if he was sad, it was just calm and silent.

After the old prince died, he meditated for a night.

Lou Yueqing raised her eyebrows when she heard this, seeing that his eyes were a little worried, she smiled faintly: "Don't worry, I'm fine!"

Rong Zhi didn't speak.

Lou Yueqing smiled faintly, her eyes quietly paused in the mourning hall in front of her, and slowly spoke: "It's just something that has been expected a long time ago, my grandfather went peacefully, his children and grandchildren were with him before he left, and he didn't have any regrets, he was much luckier than those who died and were afraid that no one would collect the corpses, in this case, sadness is just superfluous!"

Their grief and crying are just because the death of the old prince is like a thunderbolt on a sunny day for them, and she, after so many years, has gone through bloody storms, and there is nothing that she can't bear.
