Chapter 362: The Past (21)
Su Dai's funeral can be said to be the most solemn and cumbersome funeral since the founding of the country.
The scenery is a big funeral, and the prime minister has done it very well.
The people of the Wind Country are all dressed in linen and filial piety, and they will not marry or marry within three years, and the palace is even more white.
She was buried in the Queen's Mausoleum.
Until his death, Cheng Guang finally admitted that the woman who had been with him for many years was the queen.
The courtiers also came to worship one by one.
Su Dai's mother's family also went out to the nest, and her mother cried to death in the mourning hall.
Although the royal relatives of the Cheng family were not so willing, they all came to the mourning hall one by one.
Although the concubines have their own ghosts, they all look very sad in the mourning hall.
The princes also suspended classes to keep filial piety to their nominal mothers.
And Cheng Guang, as a husband and as an emperor, was absent.
For seven days, he did not appear.
On the main seat of the mourning hall, the eldest prince could only be allowed to sit temporarily for his father.
Without the emperor, the mourning hall is no longer so heavy.
The kneeling people below whispered.
The sudden death of the queen has been heard by everyone.
And this is obviously the best time to communicate.
"Hey, have you heard, the queen committed suicide. ”
"I've heard about it a long time ago, it looks like the Su family is going to die........."
"Look at the appearance of Mrs. Su, I guess I want to follow her daughter........"
"I heard that the queen died in the cold palace. ”
"Really?"
"It's true........"
"But it's okay, why did she go to the cold palace?"
"I really don't know ........ this."
"Cut, then you're all too simple. I heard that the emperor had already deposed the queen before her death!
"Oh my God, there's such a thing........."
................
"Ahem......."
The guests below obviously have a stomach full of gossip to tell.
was stopped by a large eunuch standing aside with a coughing sound.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is time to offer your condolences. ”
The big eunuch's voice was so shrill that it sounded very uncomfortable.
If you look closely, you will find that the face under the official hat is the virtue and talent.
"Why isn't it Grandpa Zhang?"
"I want to ask too, I sent him a lot of things before, just counting on him to give me a few kind words from the emperor, so that my daughter can enter the palace........"
"yes, I also sent a lot!"
"Where did this cunning old thing go? it can't have been cut down by the emperor, right?"
None of the whispers of the guests escaped the ears of Decai.
He stared blankly at the few adults who were talking.
"Please come up and offer your condolences quickly, don't miss the hour. ”
When he said this, he had a gentle smile on his lips, as if he was very patient.
It's just that his eyes are fixed on a few adults who are talking.
The adults were stunned by his staring and sweating behind their backs.
Although he is only a eunuch, he is also a person around the emperor, and it is too late for them to do anything to make a mess with him.
People went up one by one to mourn, and the inky black coffin was placed in the middle of the mourning hall, looking very solemn.
Looking at the coffin, they seemed to be able to remember Su Dai's appearance again.
Gentle, intellectual appearance.
"The hour is almost up, so please kneel. ”
Decai gave the order, and everyone knelt down in unison.
“......... Everyone buckled their heads to Empress Dexiaoxian, and they buckled their heads ........"
"Two buckles for the first ........"
"Three Buckles First ........"
Decai's voice resounded throughout the mourning hall.
The sound of kowtowing is also endless.
In the mourning hall all of a sudden, only the sound of the head and the sharp voice of virtue and talent remained.
The two white candles burned silently, and the flames flickered and dimmed.
A large table of tributes had already cooled.
Su Dai's tablet is placed on the innermost offering table,
There are five large characters engraved on it.
First queen, Su Dai.
Cheng Guang came here unconsciously.
Zichong Palace.
Even he didn't know why he was here.
I should have forgotten about it.
I shouldn't think of this place anymore.
But his feet would not listen to him.
"Squeak. ”
The gate of Zichong Palace is dilapidated and covered with dust.
Cheng Guang patted the dust on his hands, and then raised his head.
The furnishings here are exactly the same as before.
Not a single bit has changed.
Except for a layer of dust on it, it almost made him feel like nothing had changed.
He seemed to have returned to the time when he had just been emperor.
Come to this place and meet the woman.
The woman who made his soul fly and made him unable to let go.
Obviously, it is forbidden love.
But he loved to die and live, and he didn't want to care about the so-called world.
He brought her into the palace, and the golden house hid Jiaojiao and placed her in this Zichong Palace.
He named her the princess of the protector of the country, and no matter how busy the state affairs were, he would visit her every day.
He didn't want to remember who she was.
He only regarded her as the woman he loved the most.
He admits that he is distracted.
He admits that he is amorous.
He confessed that he had broken her heart.
On this day, the first place he thought of was the place he was going to.
"Are you alright........"
He muttered softly.
This perfect palace can only be her cage forever.
He thought he could tame her wild horse.
What he didn't expect was that it turned out that she was more difficult to tame than he thought.
She punished him in the most extreme ways.
She made it impossible for him to see him again.
She made him think about it every day.
She didn't even let him know her whereabouts.
All these years, he guarded this luxurious palace.
Guarding the country he single-handedly defeated.
The people who guard this country.
Guarding everything in this country.
But more and more, he found that his life was becoming more and more empty.
The older a person gets, the more afraid he is of losing.
He lost.
Lost a lot, a lot.
He would even marry a woman who looked a little like her in the palace because he saw her.
He even, because of her, personally strangled the last woman he had ever loved.
The so-called miscarriage of beauties is just his excuse.
More, but she forced him to remember the unbearable past.
Because of this, he lost.
He regrets it now.
only to find that it was too late.
The building was empty.
Everything in the future is only him.
He can only make himself stronger.
Can you not think about these people and things that shake him.
Can you not remember those pasts.
"Whether it's good or not, I'm not good right now...... As soon as you leave, leave that child behind, you let me ..... There is no face, no courage to look at him....... I really can't look at him like any other prince....... It's all your fault. It's all your fault! Cheng Hua, it's all your fault. ”
His voice was unwilling, sad.
If there was even one way at that time, he would not choose to let her go.
At that time, he knew that he would regret it.
He turned Zichong Palace into a forbidden place, and he did not allow anyone to touch his memories.
But in this world, there is no impermeable wall.
His past can never be just his.
More and more people will know about it.
"Cheng Hua, in this life, I have been defeated in your hands. You'd better never come back........ I...... I don't want to see you again in my life. ”
