Qin Hanzhen was wearing filial piety clothes and walked out of the palace room of the kneeling spirit, only to feel dizzy.

It snowed for the first time today, and in this cold weather, she had been kneeling on the princess's mourning hall for more than three hours, and half a day's work had passed, and her physical strength was really a little unbearable, so she had to take a breath by urinating.

Fortunately, her identity as the princess of Suning County is still quite faceless in the palace, and the palace people with organic spirits put a brazier not far from her, so that she will not be too cold, so her body is not stiff. But after such a long time, even if she is not frozen, she is already frozen on her knees. She just relied on her young health to survive until now. Several elderly female elders of the clan passed out one by one due to old age and frailty as early as the first day, and they were all sent back to their homes, so they didn't have to kneel again. Only the younger generation of clan daughters-in-law, as well as two or three clan elders with mediocre saints, were still guarding the mourning hall, and slowly, some people fainted one after another, but it is difficult to say whether they are really faint or not.

Qin Hanzhen paused at her feet, and caught a glimpse of Princess Xiang whispering in a room she had just walked through, stepping on the foot stove with the soles of her feet, holding the hand stove in her hands, and several daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law waiting around her, shouting for warmth, sending tea and snacks, couldn't help but pout, and walked over without saying a word.

You must know that Princess Xiang just cried and "fainted" in the mourning hall, and before she fainted, she cried and said a lot of words to praise the princess, and she was heartbroken for the princess's "untimely death". Qin Hanzhen thought that Princess Xiang really had an extremely deep friendship with the crown princess Tang, but he didn't know it. Now I understand.

Presumably, there are many people who are playing in front of the spirit these days. It is no wonder that during the serious illness of the crown princess Tang, there were few people who really had the heart to visit the palace, but now it seems that everyone is sad for her death. Because of a granddaughter-in-law in Xiangwangfu, she was involved in Chu Zheng's plan, and she was not a saint, but now she has to be a fearful person. Even if the people in the clan who are higher than the crown princess are basically exempted from the obligation of kneeling, Princess Xiang still has to take the whole family and continue to play in the palace. It's just that they didn't do a good job of acting sincerely, so that the palace people could see it, and it was impossible not to report to the queen mother, the emperor and the prince. What's the point?

Qin Hanzhen didn't bother to investigate what these people were thinking. She was also cold, so she quickly found a warmer place, drank hot tea, ate some snacks to cushion her stomach, and waited for her body to have strength, so she could continue to go back to the front mourning hall to cry.

Qin Hanzhen brought Feng'er and Lianshi into the palace. Lianshi stayed by her side and listened to the instructions, Feng'er was more familiar with the palace, so she went to find someone to ask for tea, and soon came back, and asked Qin Hanzhen for the hand stove that Qin Hanzhen brought into the palace to get new charcoal, and asked for an extra brazier. Lianshi hurriedly opened a box of dim sum brought from the Junwang's Mansion, borrowed a white porcelain tea tray and put it on the side of the brazier to heat, and after a while, it was ready to eat.

Qin Hanzhen was eating hot tea with dim sum while keeping warm, and by the way, he listened to Feng'er report some news from the palace that he had just inquired about.

The funeral of the crown princess, because it was held during the war, and in a few months, it was going to meet the ceremony of the new monarch's accession to the throne, so the emperor and the crown prince discussed it and decided not to do it again. According to the regulations, the crown princess can be buried in the imperial mausoleum as a princess, and the mourning hall is located in Kunning Palace, which can be regarded as a symbol of the future queen status of the crown princess, but there is no official reward. The kneeling spirit in the palace only needs to kneel for seven days before moving out of the palace. Because she is the new monarch's Yuan with the main room, although she is not the queen, her identity is not the same as that of ordinary people, so the emperor specially announced that the country has entered the state funeral, and the people are forbidden to marry for three days.

The royal family decided to be frugal in funerals, and the courtiers had no reason to object. There are also rules and etiquette that should be there, but try to keep it as simple as possible. The Ministry of Rites saw that Tang Lao Shangshu did not object, and even took the initiative to express his approval, so he did not say anything. The imperial historians will not add to the chaos at this time. That's it.

The Queen Mother was sad that the princess had passed away, and she was in bed for several days to recuperate. The emperor couldn't bear to see the crown princess for the last time, except for summoning the prince to comfort him from time to time, he would not set foot in the palace that was dead. As for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he comes every day, but he does not stay in front of the spirit for too long. Liaodong is still at war, and he still has a lot of state affairs to be busy with. Lord Minshun guards in front of the spirit every day, but because of her weak body, she can't bear it after two or three days. She still insisted on guarding her mother's coffin out of the palace, but was persuaded by the princess and the prince.

There is also a Chen Liangyuan in the East Palace, who has been ordered by the Queen Mother to be exempted from the obligation of kneeling because she is pregnant. It's just that she also wants to express her sorrow and nostalgia for the crown princess, and these days she has enshrined a small Buddha shrine in her room, quietly chanting scriptures and praying for the princess. Yesterday, I was bumped into by the county lord of Minshun, and the county lord sat opposite her and cried silently, so he also began to set up a Buddhist shrine incense case in his own house to pray for the blessing of his deceased mother.

These are all gossip in the palace, Qin Hanzhen listened casually, and had a clearer understanding of the situation in the harem after the death of the crown princess.

In the past few days, everything in front of the crown princess's spirit has basically been presided over by the princess. Sure enough, in the absence of an owner in the harem, the queen mother is old, the lord of Minshun is still young, and he is immersed in sadness, Chen Liangyuan is pregnant and has a humble position, and the princess has become the one who presides over the overall situation. Fortunately, the crown prince will ascend the throne in a few months, and almost all of the Wang family have returned to their hometowns, leaving Wang Siye and others, and they will not be in the capital. Otherwise, God knows if the Wang family will make a comeback at this time?

Qin Hanzhen was seventy percent full, and felt that he had strength in his body, so he went back to the front of the mourning hall and continued to cry. Feng'er silently took out a small wooden box that she carried with her, opened the lock on it, and took a new handkerchief for her. Qin Hanzhen changed the old veil, looked at the new veil with a slight medicinal smell, and sighed.

Normal people can't stand crying all the time. How many tears will fall. But if you don't cry, you don't seem to be pious enough, and it's easy to be picked. Qin Hanzhen couldn't do it as cheekily as a scholar and shouted with his neck, so he had no choice but to sacrifice a special medicine cloth to stimulate his tear ducts with a crooked ramp. After just a few days, she was really tired. When the crown princess's funeral is over, she will have to rest for a few days.

Qin Hanzhen went back to the mourning hall, and before entering the door, he caught a glimpse of the sky outside, the dark clouds were dark and gloomy, and he didn't know if it was going to snow. She is still young and can bear it, but she doesn't know what happened to her parents. Cai Shengnan was pregnant and reported childbirth, so he was able to stay at home and take care of his two children by the way. The Niu clan was served by Xiao Feng's family and kneeled in the palace. Although the emperor has the heart to give grace to the Niu family, because the old ladies of the Tu family and the Tang family are crying very pious and sad, they are unwilling to go home in life or death. Qin Bai and the Niu clan both felt that they could support it, so they stayed. But how can Qin Hanzhen rest assured? Although Grandmother Niu's health has always been very good, she is an old person after all, and the weather is so cold......

Qin Hanzhen quietly sent Feng'er to see the situation of the Niu family and Xiao Feng's family. The ladies who knelt and wept in this mourning hall were not all together. The clans are in one place, and the foreign women are in another. Qin Hanzhen couldn't take care of his relatives nearby, so he could only use the medicine handkerchief to force himself to cry while thinking about his grandmother's body. Fortunately, it didn't take long for Feng'er to ask the palace people who were familiar with him to bring the news, saying that the Niu family was fine, because the weather was bad, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had ordered that Tu, Tang, and Qin all be sent out of the palace, so at the moment, only Xiao Feng's, Tang grandmother and a few young daughters-in-law of the Tu family were still in the palace. However, Xiao Feng's family is not far from the brazier, and the emperor and the crown prince have already ordered the palace people to take care of her, and there is no big problem at the moment.

After half an hour, it began to snow again, and the cold wind outside swept into the mourning hall one after another, and several young and frail clan daughters-in-law couldn't stand it and immediately fainted, including the princess Sun of Yangjun. Qin Hanzhen's kneeling place was not far from her, and she was startled when she saw this, seeing that no one else could take care of her, she hurriedly came over, called two palace people, and helped people to the house.

After a while, the imperial doctor arrived and diagnosed Sun's pulse, and the Tao was a happy pulse, and it turned out that Sun was pregnant. But her maid did not know at all, and she did not know how she was waiting. I thought that the princess of my county was in good health, young and strong, and she knelt in the palace for a few days, but she didn't take it seriously. It's cold and tiring, what if there's a good one?

Qin Hanzhen counted a few words from the maids of the Yangjun Palace, and asked people to report it to the princess. Wang Concubine quickly rushed over, looked at Sun's pale face, and hurriedly said, "Is it convenient to move now? If you can move, send people home quickly." Don't come back for the next few days. The crown princess is the most kind-hearted, if the princess of Yangjun has three long and two short, wouldn't it make the princess unable to feel at ease under Jiuquan?" and said to Qin Hanzhen, "The princess of Suning County will give her a ride, right? After sending it off, she will go back to the house directly, and it will be the same if Ming'er comes again." In the past few days, everyone has been tired. ”

This is a favor given by the princess, Qin Han really thanked her for her kindness, but still declined. If the princess is the queen, the weight of her words is certainly not ordinary. Or at this time, the Queen Mother spoke, and Qin Hanzhen was also happy to leave. The problem is that the princess of Yangjun, Sun, has a legitimate reason to leave early, but Qin Hanzhen does not. Zhao Mo has always been the focus of everyone's attention because of his holy favor and real power in his hands, how can Qin Hanzhen let people catch the handle and give people the opportunity to attack Zhao Mo? She would rather be honest, do what she should do, fulfill all her obligations, and not let people find faults.

The princess originally just wanted to show favor to Qin Hanzhen. But she has a gentle temper, even if Qin Hanzhen didn't accept her kindness, she wouldn't be resentful, but after sending the Sun family away, she changed another suggestion: "Why don't you go and see the county lord of Minshun?" She has always been close to the princess of the county, so the princess might as well enlighten her?"

This time, Qin Hanzhen did not refuse. It is certainly better to be able to sit and rest in the warm palace than to continue to kneel and drink the northwest wind in the mourning hall.

Qin Hanzhen took two maids and followed the palace people sent by the princess to guide the way to the East Palace. Before she arrived at the gate of the East Palace, she saw from a distance the Marquis of Yunyang, who was tied with Bai Xiao's belt around her waist, and several generals such as Ma, Min, and Yun, who were running quickly to the study of the East Palace, in a hurry.
