Gu Wanning saw the crown princess staring at her stomach, so she guessed the princess's concerns, and said softly: "I, the eldest granddaughter-in-law, always have to guard the soul of the imperial grandfather." When the stomach pain attacks, it is enough to go out of the mourning hall to give birth. ”

In any case, this is the time to be left behind.

The crown princess also knew this truth, and cheered up and said: "In short, you have to take care of your body more." ”

Gu Guanning snorted.

That same evening.

Taisun personally put on the dragon robe for Emperor Yuanyou before his death, and then carried Emperor Yuanyou into the ice coffin together with King Qi, King Wei and King Han.

King Wei Shizi, Han Wang Shizi and others also gathered in front of the ice coffin, their eyes red one by one.

Perhaps they had secretly resented Emperor Yuanyou in the past, resenting Emperor Yuanyou's partiality. As soon as Emperor Yuanyou died, these resentments also disappeared.

What is left in their hearts is all Emperor Yuanyou's good treatment of them.

All the officials above the fourth grade in Beijing wore filial piety clothes into the palace to guard the spirit of Emperor Yuanyou, and at a glance, they knelt down in the dark. From time to time, mournful cries were heard.

The grandson cried several times in a row, thinking that the tears had run out, but when he heard the cries of the ministers, his heart was sour. Tears quietly slid down his face.

Parting from life and death is like the pain of cutting flesh and tearing out the heart. A part of the body was also stripped alive, and along with the corpse of Emperor Yuanyou, it was sealed into an ice coffin.

He was so immersed in his own sorrow that he didn't even have time to take care of King Qi anymore.

King Qi also knelt beside the ice coffin, his eyes were also red, and his face was full of tears.

The death of Emperor Yuanyou, he couldn't help but mourn in his heart. However, in the midst of sorrow, there was a burst of indescribable relief and happiness.

Without Emperor Yuanyou, how can he sit firmly on the throne with only the young grandson!

He didn't have the slightest scruples.

……

There are two places in the mourning hall, the men are in the mourning hall outside, and all the female relatives are in the mourning hall inside. There was no coffin in the inner mourning hall, only the clothes worn by Emperor Yuanyou before his death, but there was a lack of gloomy atmosphere.

Gillian and Ayi were taken into the palace, and Sister Yue, Brother Lang, and Sister Yu were also taken to the mourning hall, each wearing filial piety clothes. Several children knelt side by side, all crying quietly.

The youngest, Brother Lang, is also three years old, and they are all gradually sensible. Know what death is.

The queen knelt at the front.

Queen Wang was deposed from the throne, and she was not qualified to kneel at the head of everyone. It's just that Queen Wang is the original match of Emperor Yuanyou, and Emperor Yuanyou specially told his grandson to support Queen Wang with the gift of his grandmother before he died. And because of that, no one said anything about it.

Even Gu Wanning didn't say much.

Concubine Sun Xian and Concubine Dou Shufei also knelt beside Queen Wang.

Gu Wanning, who had not spoken out all the time, opened his mouth lightly and said: "Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu, you occupy the position of the concubine and me." ”

Concubine Sun Xian Dou Shufei: "......"

Concubine Sun Xian blushed instantly and stared at Gu Guanning fiercely.

Concubine Dou Shufei is not much better. is old, and Gu Wanning, who was granddaughter-in-law, ruthlessly opened his mouth and counted down, where is the face?

Concubine Dou Shu simply knelt on the ground and cried: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, if you leave, how can the concubines live! Even kneeling to guard the spirit, you can't escape being humiliated by the younger generation." Your Majesty, the concubines will go with you......"

Concubine Dou Shufei cried, and Princess Han, who was kneeling on the side, couldn't hold it back, knelt up straight, and looked at each other angrily: "Gu family, although you are the princess, don't deceive people too much." ”

"Concubine Shu Niangniang and Concubine Xian Niangniang are both concubines in the palace, who have accompanied their father for many years and have a prince. How can you be so easily humiliated?"

As a junior, Lin Ruxue was inconvenient to speak, frowning at this time, and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.

She is too familiar with Gu Wanning's temperament and temper. Since Gu Guanning opened his mouth, he would never give up. Only relying on the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the concubine may not be Gu Guanning's opponent.

Sure enough, I heard Gu Wanning say lightly: "Concubine Jing Niangniang has been in charge of the Middle Palace for several years, and she is the original wife of the emperor's grandfather. Kneel in the first place, as a matter of course. Next, I respect my mother. Since I am the princess, I should kneel behind my mother. There is nothing wrong with this order. ”

"As for the two concubines, as palace concubines, they should abide by the duties of palace concubines. The emperor's grandfather's bones are not cold, and the two mothers quarrel over the position of kneeling, so aren't you afraid that the emperor's grandfather will be angry and come back to find the two mothers?"

Suddenly, a gust of wind came out of the mourning hall, blowing the candle flame in the mourning hall to shake.

I don't know which timid palace concubine was so frightened that she screamed. The sharp sound echoed in the mourning hall, making people feel chilled.

Concubine Dou Shufei couldn't help but shudder.

Concubine Sun Xian subconsciously touched the goosebumps on her arm, and her heart was also full of awe.

Gu Guanning's voice sounded unhurriedly: "The palace is the place where the rules are the most important. Concubine Niangniang Shufei Niangniang has been in the palace for many years, so I don't need to say more, I should also know the etiquette of kneeling and mourning. At this time, I knowingly commit a crime, I don't know what the purpose is?"

In the end, it is in the mourning hall, and it is not appropriate to ask sharply.

Gu Guanning's words were much softer than usual.

Concubine Sun Xian still felt a burst of heat on her face. was accused by Gu Guanning in public, and her old face was completely lost. But Gu Wanning is indeed reasonable.

In terms of position, the crown princess should indeed be respected. Then, it should be the grandson concubine Gu Guanning.

When Emperor Yuanyou is buried and the grandson ascends the throne, the crown princess is the queen mother of the dynasty, and Gu Guanning is the justifiable queen of Daqin. She and Concubine Dou wanted to take advantage of the funeral to suppress their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and they should have dispelled it as soon as possible.

Those who know the times are Junjie. Concubine Sun Xian was able to bend and stretch, and quickly opened her mouth and said: "This palace is too sad, and it was negligent for a while. The princess reminded that. ”

After saying that, he knelt and moved to the rear.

Dou Shufei: "......"

Concubine Dou Shufei couldn't stand alone, resisted the urge to scold, and reluctantly moved to the back.

Princess Han: "......"

recognized it so quickly, she knew it was so, she really shouldn't have jumped out and spoken up. It's good now, I've offended the difficult Gu Guanning in vain.

Princess Han was annoyed in her heart, and in front of everyone, it was inconvenient to say anything to make amends, so she had to stop her mouth.

Lin Ruxue said softly: "My sister-in-law is bulky, I'll help my sister-in-law!"

As he spoke, he knelt down and moved over and held Gu Wanning's arm. quietly resolved Princess Han's embarrassment.

Princess Han secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but think in her heart, this daughter-in-law really married well. I don't talk much on weekdays, but my mind is very bright.

Gu Wanning did not refuse Lin Ruxue's kindness, and said to the crown princess: "Mother, you kneel behind Concubine Jing!"

The crown princess, who had not reacted from beginning to end, only came back to her senses at this time and nodded.

It doesn't hurt to let it go at another time. At such a critical time, we must not give in half a step.
