Chapter 289: The Palace's Dilemma
The Son of Heaven was mourned, the capital was vegetarian, and the people mourned. ◢ with ◢ dream ◢ small ◢ .lā
The Lujun Mansion was no exception, but he was not allowed to enter the palace to cry.
An Tianyou was shocked, he originally planned to remove An Shihong as the crown prince first, and gradually cut off the power of King Liang, but he didn't expect An Shihong not only to be the crown prince, but also to ascend to the throne smoothly.
But King Liang died so early, and the way he died was so unexpected.
An Tianyou intuitively felt that something was wrong, because King Liang died, and the biggest beneficiary was An Shihong.
However, although An Tianyou knew that his father and son had gradually become estranged, he did not dare to think about An Shihong to kill his father and kill the king, but said that God helped An Shihong.
In this way, I am afraid that An Shihong already knows about the edict, and An Tianyou's heart is heavy.
Qiu Ruyi, who was staying in the warehouse, was also very gloomy in his heart, although the sun was shining outside.
Bright objects have been removed from the palace according to the system, and the people under them are also dressed in white clothes.
However, the filial piety of the masters in the house is not easy to prepare.
Following the practice of this dynasty, whenever the emperor dies, the clan relatives must wear linen rough clothes, among which there are many rules, one is not careful, it is possible to commit a taboo, cause a big disaster, now the Lujun palace is in a storm, naturally more cautious.
It's just that the palace is rich and rich, where to prepare burlap white cloth.
Qiu Ruyi looked at the fine cotton white cloth found by the servants, and couldn't help but sigh deeply.
Using these muslin cloths to make filial piety clothes makes it clear that you want to leave a handle for people.
The Lujun Palace's mansion has been besieged for more than half a month, and there is no communication between inside and outside, so I won't let people go out to buy cloth this time.
Qiu Ruyi thought about it, led people to the second room, passed by the garden, but saw the steward leading the people to demolish several viewing grass pavilions in the garden.
An Tianzhu clapped his hands on the side, but An Tianxiang cried, and Zhou was so angry that he called his son's grandmother to take him away.
Qiu Ruyi sighed again.
There is no communication between inside and outside, not only can you not buy cloth, but even firewood, rice, oil and salt cannot enter.
Fortunately, Lu Junwang and his wife were afraid of hardship and hunger when they were young, and they deeply understood the truth of "having food in their hands, not panicking in their hearts".
Back then, when she saw her mother-in-law letting herself take care of the house, she solemnly confessed that unless the new grain was replaced with the old grain, she was not allowed to touch the grain here, she almost laughed, it was also a big mansion of the country, and there was a place to spare, so she built such a big granary at home, and guarded the granary, and asked Zhuangzi to send rice and grain up on a monthly basis.
Just a few months ago, when the Zhou family handed over to her, when they inspected this place, the two of them still looked at each other and smiled, but they didn't expect it to come in handy in this crisis.
It's just that in the end, it's been too long since the peace, and I only remember that there is a shortage of food and salt, but I forgot to cook with firewood.
Therefore, now the flower barriers and fences in the house have been dismantled into firewood, and now it is the turn to dismantle the grass pavilion.
Because An Tianzhu has grown up in the border since he was a child, he has no feelings for the top and bottom of this house, and he only sees a lively scene when he sees the demolition of things, and An Tianxiang has grown up in the house since he was a child, and he is naturally unhappy when he sees that everyone has changed the scenery in the house.
Qiu Ruyi stepped forward to hug An Tianxiang and said with a smile: "What are you crying about, tell your aunt, your aunt is your master." ”
An Tianxiang leaned on his uncle's arms and cried: "My mother is bad." ”
Seeing this, An Tianzhu hurriedly squeezed into his mother's arms, and said ashamedly to An Tianxiang: "Lose, lose." ”
Zhou came to greet him, and Qiu Ruyi said: "Since the child likes it, these pavilions will be kept for the time being, and a few old trees or unused wooden houses in the inner and outer courtyards will be cut down and burned." ”
The steward hurriedly whispered and left with the people.
Qiu Ruyi sighed to Zhou: "It's his uncle who has affected you and the children, I'm really sorry for you." ”
Zhou smiled bitterly: "Sister-in-law will see the outside like this, since it is a family, how can there be different reasons for sharing joys and sorrows, everything will go quickly, and the uncle will return safely." Sister-in-law must take care of herself. ”
"They are all mothers, and they will live well for the sake of their children. Qiu Ruyi smiled.
Zhou asked Qiu Ruyi about filial piety, and Qiu Ruyi shook his head: "I don't have to let the second brother negotiate with the guards in front of me again, they will definitely not allow our people to go out, since this is the case, give them more money, and help bring in the sackcloth as soon as possible." ”
Zhou sighed: "In the past, they were not willing to be accommodating at all, but this time they may not be willing." ”
"Either way, try it. ”
An Shimao didn't say a word, and went forward.
Qiu Ruyi was not at ease, handed over the child to Zhou, and also led people to the front yard.
As soon as he came to the door, he saw An Shimao arguing with the guard general, and the guard general kept shaking his head.
An Shimao roared angrily: "You don't let my family go out to buy it, I'll give you money, you can buy it yourself." ”
The guard generals were embarrassed: "Son, please don't be embarrassed for the lower officials, when the lower officials receive the order, the boss will order: not a single grass or tree is allowed to enter or leave the house, so as not to communicate with the inside and outside." ”
An Shimao was angry: "What kind of news? My family was born in a clan, and I am rich and noble because of the emperor's grace, and Nanyi Nanzhao is barren and small, what are the benefits of voting for him? I said that my eldest brother has revealed the border defense map to foreign enemies, what is he trying to do, just to fight a few defeats in a row? The court and the central government have not convicted my family, but you use a needle as a mallet, and we should really be guarded by prisoners." In the future, you will pay us back, but because of your obstruction, you have not been guilty of sackcloth as filial piety, can you afford it?"
The guard general was silent, but he also surrounded the boss's order, so he had to say: "That's it, I'll go up and ask the boss." ”
An Shimao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He had long observed that the guards and generals who supervised in shifts were honest people, and there was finally a way out of the matter.
Qiu Ruyi didn't have hope for this, the second brother still grew up in the rich and noble and had nothing to do, since the guard general kept saying that he respected the orders of his boss, the boss seemed to be deliberately embarrassed by the Lujun Palace, how could he open up at this time.
Qiu Ru thought that the guard general turned around to leave, hurriedly walked a few steps, stopped him, and said with a smile: "My lord is willing to speak to his boss, and I am grateful to the whole house, but if you are tired and punished by your boss, it will make us more and more unhappy." You may also know that the current crown princess is a sister who grew up with my mother's family since childhood, and her relationship has always been very good, and she has always liked my eldest son the most. She came out to say something, and you don't have to be in a dilemma here. ”
The general's heart sank, the crown princess is the future queen, and the crown princess and the Lujun palace have always been close.
And anyone with a little brain knows that An Shicheng will not rebel, at most it is unfavorable in battle, this crime can be big or small, and it is not a matter of the emperor's words.
It is said that before An Shicheng went to the border pass, he also had a very good relationship with His Royal Highness the Prince, so King Lu Jun could not be offended.
