Chapter 408: Huan Ji Returns to Beijing (Third Update)
The second prince asked, "Do you know where my aunt and grandmother are?" Qingzhou has been notified? Now that she is about to mourn, the Queen Mother will definitely make a fuss about the person who helps the spirit, what can I do? ā
He originally inherited the throne logically, but seeing that the throne was about to leave him, he couldn't hold his breath. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The second prince walked anxiously around the inner room.

In the queen mother's bedroom, the queen mother said: "On the day of the funeral, I won't let him help the spirit, and the one who helps the spirit must be the eighth prince." ā
A man dressed as a palace maid in the palace said: "The queen mother doesn't have to worry, you must not make a big mistake." Don't say it's the second prince, even if it's someone else, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold my breath at this moment, we just need to wait for him to make a mistake. ā
The Queen Mother nodded, but she still had her own plans in her heart.
***
In the inner room where the second prince was, a staff member who was over fifty years old and dressed as a guard said: "The second prince is not in a hurry, the more urgent the time, the more they will throw a mouse bogey, you just need to stabilize and not make mistakes, and when the eldest princess comes back, we will win." ā
The second prince was a little worried: "You didn't see the queen mother's eyes looking at me, as if she was going to eat me alive." I couldn't stay in the palace for a moment, and every day I was worried that she would kill me secretly. ā
Several staff members glanced at each other and continued to persuade: "Now that the emperor has not yet mourned, it is absolutely impossible to leave the palace." ā
The second prince is good at everything, but he can't change his cowardice, and if there is any trouble, he can scare him half to death, and now I'm afraid it has reached the limit.
Another person persuaded: "The second prince relaxes, that woman doesn't dare to harm you, at this juncture, if she dares to harm you, the eldest princess will definitely not let her go when she comes back, although she hasn't seen it when the eldest princess is powerful, but she has always heard of it." ā
A few people persuaded me word by word, and finally persuaded the second prince to go back.

Huan Ji learned the news of Li Qian's death on the boat, she said sadly: "The palace is really a place to eat people, he is only one year older than me, you look at my body, there is no illness or disaster all year round, but what about him?" How do you say that you just went? He left tears in his eyes.
Wang Yuyang wiped his tears for Huan Ji and said: "Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky." After speaking, he looked up at the place where the sea and the sky met.
Huan Ji followed Wang Yuyang's gaze to the place where the sea and the sky met, sighed and leaned on Wang Yuyang and said, "Fortunately, I listened to your words early in the morning, according to our itinerary, it would be good if we could catch him in time for burial." ā
Wang Yuyang took Huan Ji in his arms and patted him gently, "We will rush back." ā
Their ship sailed directly into Haizhou, from Haizhou to Luozhou, and then Luozhou rushed to Beijing.
Haizhou is a subsidiary state of Qingzhou, and they went ashore to return to Tang, and only the people in Qingzhou knew about it.
After they entered the Beijing Division, no one in the court still knew that Princess Huanji had returned to the Beijing Division.
Xue Dongwei and others couldn't take care of anything else, the emperor should have been buried a long time ago, who expected that when the second prince was about to drop the basin, the queen mother's people stopped him, and the queen mother wanted the eighth prince to drop the basin and beat the flag.
The second prince naturally does not follow, he is the eldest son, and when Concubine Ming saw this, she shouted to the princess and aunt to cry and fell on Li Qian's coffin.
As a result, under a dispute, the time for mourning was missed, and Qin Tianjian only had to choose a date, which was actually not a day for Qin Tianjian to choose, but to determine who was mourning.
Xue Dongwei thinks that no matter who becomes the emperor, without the support of Princess Huanji, I am afraid that the throne will not last long. He didn't understand why some people thought that Princess Huanji would be on their side.
And some people's ideas are even more ridiculous, they want to let the new emperor ascend the throne as soon as possible, and when Princess Huanji comes back, they will only have to pay homage, so they are not afraid that Princess Huanji will clear them of a crime on the side of the king.
The people who supported the second prince recognized that Princess Huanji would be on their side, so they were just stalling for time;
The people who support the Queen Mother are like ants on a hot pot, constantly thinking of a way, thinking that no matter what, they must let the first emperor be buried as soon as possible, even if the second prince is imprisoned first.
The Queen Mother punished Concubine Ming to kneel.
Huan Ji and Wang Yuyang hurried to hurry, and as soon as they arrived in Luozhou, they received a secret report that the emperor's funeral had been postponed.
Huan Ji really couldn't think of a reason, so she could only ask the coachman to go faster. They have already changed two horses along the way.
Now they are all in their forties and fifties, and they are all a little tired from the rush these days.
Wang Yuyang leaned on the soft pillow, half-hugged and half-hugged Huanji, and said softly: "You take a nap, we will arrive at night." ā
Huan Ji looked up at Wang Yuyang's still handsome face, reached out and touched it, and nodded.
When Huan Ji and Wang Yuyang returned to Beijing, the emperor had not yet come out of the funeral, and he had not even booked the time for the funeral.
The people in Princess Huanji's mansion knew early in the morning that Princess Huanji would return to Beijing today, and they all stayed in the mansion and waited for the summons.
Huan Ji passed on the long history of Princess Huan Ji's mansion and came over to ask, "What is the reason why the emperor has not been buried yet." Although she was glad that she had rushed back, she still felt that something was wrong.
Several Changshi glanced at each other, and Wei Changshi stepped forward to explain the reason. He deliberately asked people to inquire about what happened in the palace that day, and so many officials and palace people were present at that time, so naturally it could not be sealed.
After hearing the reason, Huan Ji smashed the cup in her hand for the first time in the princess's mansion, she is not a person who can't control her temper, she has never lost her temper since she was forty years old, even if she encounters money and murder, oppression of the people, she rarely asks in person, only writes a letter to the Qingzhou Mansion and asks them to send someone to investigate.
The people of the princess's mansion all knelt on the ground, and there was silence in the hall.
Huan Ji took a few deep breaths before retracting her anger. Huan Ji said: "Fifty percent of the soldiers and horses are in whose hands? ā
Shi Shi, the deputy head of Princess Huanji's Mansion, hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "Her Royal Highness Princess Hui, Lord Jia Mingjia is in charge. ā
Huan Ji asked again: "Who is the commander of the forbidden army?" ā
The deputy chief Shi replied again: "It is the commander of Cheng Yingcheng." ā
Huan Ji waved her hand and said, "Let's go and rest, let someone bring a message to Jia Ming and Cheng Ying, and say that this princess has returned to Beijing, and I will enter the palace early tomorrow morning." ā
Deputy Chief Shi Ying: "Yes." Then he repelled the people.
A group of maids, long history, and so on dispersed.
Feng Changshi wiped his forehead and whispered: "His Royal Highness has never lost such a temper, even if someone encouraged Concubine Yang to accompany the funeral, His Royal Highness did not smash the cup." ā
Wei Changshi looked around and whispered: "What do you know, the people who encouraged Empress Yang to accompany the burial were all irrelevant people, and those who hindered the burial of the former emperor were the wives and concubines and sons of the former emperor." Can this be the same? ā
