Chapter 823: Funeral Guard (1)
Emperor Yuanyou died, and both the government and the opposition mourned.
The prince of Qi Wang, who was locked up in the prison, also sensed that something was wrong.
For a whole day, the prince did not bring food. This would have been impossible in the past.
The stomach was empty, and the taste of hunger was very unbearable. What's even harder is the darkness and loneliness.
I don't know how long it took for the prince to come.
Today's princess is wearing a white plain robe, with a sad look on his face. As an internal servant, only when the master dies, he will wear filial piety clothes.
The prince of Qi sank inexplicably in his heart, and opened his mouth to ask, "Why do you wear filial piety?"
The prince's eyes were red, and his eyes were full of pain: "The emperor has returned to heaven." ”
Prince of Qi: "......"
The prince of Qi was like a bowstring breaking suddenly in his head, which shocked him for a long time. His mind was blank, and his face kept shaking in front of him.
Kind, gracious, smiling, suspicious, gloomy, cold, angry......
The days and nights when he was imprisoned in the prison, he hated Emperor Yuanyou to the core.
At this moment, when he heard the news of Emperor Yuanyou's death, his first reaction was boundless shock and pain.
"Impossible!" The trembling voice of the prince of Qi was full of panic and fear: "How can the emperor's grandfather return to heaven! You slave, you are so daring! You dare to speak nonsense! This prince can't spare you!"
The prince looked miserable: "Son, how dare a slave lie about such a big matter." The prison is underground, and the sound of the death knell has not yet arrived. So the prince didn't hear it. The death knell was heard by the whole capital......"
The prince of Qi staggered back a few steps until his back was pressed against the wall, and there was nowhere to retreat.
Tears welled up in his eyes.
Grandfather Huang, why did you die like this?
I haven't been able to get out, I haven't been able to do something earth-shattering, I haven't been able to see your face of remorse, how can you die like this......
After crying silently for a long time, the prince of Qi said in a hoarse voice: "I want to go out, the imperial grandfather is gone, I want to go to the vigil." ”
The prince glanced at the prince of Qi deeply: "Prince Rong'an has entered the palace, and now there is no one in charge of the Zongren Mansion." Slaves don't dare to make decisions on their own, let alone let the son of the world out. ”
"Unless ......"
"Unless what?" asked the prince of Qi without thinking.
The prince replied: "Unless His Royal Highness the grandson personally orders, the servants will never open the door." ”
As soon as Xiao Xu's name entered his ears, the jealousy and resentment that the prince of Qi had suppressed in his heart came to his heart, and he roared angrily: "Bastard! This prince wants to guard the spirit of the emperor's grandfather, why do you need to go through the consent of others! You open the door immediately!"
The prince still said: "The slave can't open the door, please calm down......"
How can he calm down?
The indescribable surging emotions stirred in his heart, turned into boundless anger, and rushed out of his chest.
The prince of Qi's eyes were red, he shouted angrily, and rushed to the front of the prince. His left hand clenched into a fist and slammed into the prince's face. At the same time, his right leg quickly kicked at the leg of the prince.
The seemingly defenseless prince twisted his body somehow, and flashed the attacks of the prince of Qi one after another.
The prince of Qi was completely in a frenzied surge of rage, and his right leg flew up and kicked at the prince's face.
The prince didn't fight back, he just kept dodging.
The prince of Qi tried his best, but he failed to touch the corner of the prince's clothes, both angry and embarrassed. I couldn't help but shout angrily: "Fight back! Don't dodge! This son doesn't need you to give in!"
The prince sighed: "Since the prince said so, the slave is not welcome." As he spoke, he quickly shot out and unceremoniously knocked the prince of Qi unconscious.
……
Funing Temple.
King Qi was the oldest, and he should have knelt at the top. It's just that Taisun is the prince selected by Emperor Yuanyou, so he should kneel in the first place.
The king of Qi is second, and the king of Wei and Han are again. Later, there are the princes of Wei and other emperors and grandchildren.
King Rong'an, King Rongqing and other royal children also knelt beside the coffin.
All the children and grandchildren of the Xiao family are in the mourning hall...... No, there's one missing.
Since the death of Emperor Yuanyou, the King of Qi, who has not spoken out, opened his mouth for the first time: "Taisun, let Ah Rui also come to guard the spirit! Although he made a big mistake, he is the grandson of the emperor who was once loved by his father." My father has a spirit in the sky, and he must hope that Arrow will come to the mourning hall. ”
The grandson did not look back: "If the imperial grandfather wants to see him, he will instruct him before he dies." Since he didn't say it, it was obviously not intended to let him keep his spirit. Uncle Sanhuang doesn't have to bother. ”
Don't waste your tongue.
Because I will never let Xiao Rui see the light of day again.
King Qi heard the meaning of Taisun's words, and a look of resentment flashed in his eyes, staring at Taisun's back tightly. If the gaze can kill, at this time, Taisun has been overshadowed by his gaze.
Everyone knelt behind them, and no one could get a glimpse of King Qi's face. Only King Wei and King Han saw it, and their hearts sank.
The brothers grew up together and were naturally familiar with each other's temperaments.
King Qi looked at the eyes of the grandson, where was the slightest hint of surrender......
As soon as Emperor Yuanyou died, no one could suppress the ambitious King of Qi. I don't know what kind of storm will come out.
King Wei quickly glanced at King Han, and his eyes showed an inquiring meaning.
If there is really a day when the soldiers meet each other and force the palace to seize the throne, what should you and my brother do?
King Han held a grudge the most, and he still remembered the fact that Concubine Dou Shu was poisoned that day, so he didn't pay attention to King Wei at all, and looked away expressionlessly.
King Wei: "......"
King Wei was angry and simply looked away. While kneeling, he secretly calculated countermeasures in his heart.
is secretly calculating, not to mention the king of Qi, the king of Wei, and the king of Han.
The elders and important ministers kneeling in the mourning hall also had their own thoughts. It's just that at this time, Emperor Yuanyou was newly mourned, and everyone only dared to think about it secretly in their hearts, and no one dared to show their faces.
……
This night, no one moved, and they all knelt all night.
On the second night, someone couldn't hold it anymore and quietly closed his eyes and rested.
By the third night, there were even more resting people.
The elderly Li Ge Lao only lasted until the third day before fainting. Taisun ordered someone to carry Li Ge Lao down to rest, and the imperial doctor took care of him, and when Li Ge Lao had the strength to kneel, he came to the mourning hall.
After Li Ge Lao started, other officials soon fainted due to physical exhaustion.
The grandson, who was known for his gentleness, immediately ordered all the officials to keep vigil during the day and return to their homes to rest at night.
The elderly and frail officials were grateful. Many of the younger officials who could hold up remained. For example, Gu Hai, Cui Shilang, Luo Shangshu and others.
Luo Shangshu opened his mouth to comfort his grandson: "The death of the emperor, it is inevitable that His Royal Highness will be grieved. It's just that His Highness keeps vigil day and night, and it is easy to burn out his body. Please also take care of your health. ”
