Seven hundred and seven: In the blink of an eye
"The Emperor...... Emperor...... Emperor! ......" The emperor's hand hung down, and the eldest princess was already in tears, hugging the emperor and crying bitterly, screaming in grief. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Brother Huang!" Prince Rong knelt on the ground and wept.
"Your Majesty!" The concubines and courtiers also immediately knelt on the ground and cried.
"Father!" Several princes and princesses also knelt on the ground and wept lowly
"Uncle Huang!" Jiang Zhengxi's heart is about to crack......
The eldest princess wept, and for a while the room was full of sorrow, whimpering constantly, and Yan Ruojiu's tears flowed down so naturally......
A generation of Ming monarchs, Emperor Wen of Qi Jiang Yehua in the early spring of Emperor Wen's thirty-ninth year, died of death, passed away, the whole country grieved, and the people were saddened.
The whole country has been mourning for 100 days, a sad depression, heavy rain from the sky, and for three consecutive days, it seems that they are also grieving for the death of this Ming Jun.
According to the emperor's will, the original Concubine Su Shu, that is, Jiang Ziran's biological mother, was posthumously named Empress Chenshu and moved to the tomb and buried with the emperor in the imperial mausoleum.
Empress Nangong hanged herself on the second day after learning of the emperor's death, in order not to affect the holding of the emperor's funeral, Empress Nangong was quietly and hastily placed in the imperial mausoleum, but far away from the emperor's tomb, there is almost no division at all, which makes people a little embarrassed.
100 days later, the five princes succeeded to the throne as the emperor according to the emperor's testament and under the witness of the eldest princess, while Jiang Ziran, the king of Anjun, was crowned Prince An in accordance with the will and enjoyed a lifelong crown.
Many courtiers understand that it seems that in this battle for the throne, the five princes have become the final winners, but those who know the truth know that this is just a game of chess laid out by the emperor in order to protect Prince An, and this throne is not that the emperor refuses to pass it on to Prince An, but that Prince An is not here, so it is clear who loses and who wins.
However, the five princes who first ascended to the status did not have the leisure time to worry, and in addition, Jiang Ziran was low-key enough, but he did not cause any uproar, the imperial power changed smoothly, and the court affairs had to continue.
It was not until the beginning of the following year that the five princes, that is, the new emperor Jiang Hongxuan, changed the name of the year to the first year of Qi Xuan, and the matter of the first emperor came to an end.
Because the previous year was busy grieving the death of the first emperor Jiang Yehua, the five princes have not officially moved into the palace of the imperial palace, and now, a year has passed, the deceased has passed away, and the national affairs will continue.
Under the repeated urging of the courtiers, the five princes moved into the Heart Cultivation Palace.
This throne can be regarded as a solid seat.
Because of the three-year new funeral, the emperor can't pick draft girls, but it's time for the women in the harem to be canonized.
Of course, as expected, the concubine Sheng inherited the throne and settled in Kunning Palace, and Yan Ruolan was not named a noble concubine, but only a virtuous concubine who was one of the four concubines, which made Yan Guogong's mansion somewhat disappointed.
The other female concubines and the five princes were also given titles, but they would not be higher than Yan Ruolan, which could be regarded as a little comfort for Yan Ruolan.
Now, the fifth prince has got everything he wants, the throne, the woman, but except for a rightful son.
This is not only the most distressing thing for the five princes who are new emperors, but also the most important thing that the courtiers are most concerned about, of course, it will inevitably become the top priority for the harem women to do their best and deceive.
Because everyone knows that if anyone can give birth to the eldest son for the emperor, even if he can't be the queen, he is destined to be honored, so everyone is doing their best to show their powers.
After the death of the first emperor, Jiang Ziran, who was named Prince An, has been staying at home and recuperating in the house, and the outside world thinks that he is going to stay away from government affairs.
However, only Jiang Ziran himself knew that this was specially instructed by his father, the emperor, that is, the first emperor before his death.
On that day, the first emperor was critically ill and dying, so the people who should be seen, the first emperor saw him, but he had not seen him for a long time, and even the ministers were a little anxious, but Jiang Ziran just waited quietly, not impatient.
Everyone was puzzled, but he knew that the first emperor would definitely call him in, after all, after all these years of companionship, he already had an inseparable affection for this father who appeared halfway, he slowly became grateful from the initial rejection, and now he is not impatient, because he knows that his father has poured too much love into him, and he is the same.
It has been more than a year since the first emperor died, and now Jiang Ziran has slowly recovered from his grief.
At the beginning, the first emperor repeatedly insisted that he could inherit the throne, but Jiang Ziran, who knew what he wanted, resolutely refused, although the first emperor was disappointed, but out of love, he was no longer reluctant in the end, to be honest, Jiang Ziran was really relieved.
On that day, when he entered the cabinet, the emperor didn't say much, after all, with the tacit understanding between their father and son for many years, coupled with his constant companionship some time ago, needless to say, they knew each other's intentions.
However, what Jiang Ziran was most surprised and moved by was that when he was about to leave, the first emperor handed over a tiger talisman to him.
The Green Dragon and White Tiger, Vermilion Bird Xuanwu are the four military tiger talismans of Daqi, each of which can mobilize millions of male divisions, and the generals guarding the northwest and southwest borders each hold one, which are Vermilion Bird and Xuanwu respectively.
The green dragon and the white tiger and tiger talisman have always been in the hands of the emperors of all dynasties, and they should be passed on together with the throne when the power is alternated.
However, the first emperor Jiang Yehua was an exception, and the tiger talisman in the hands of the general on the edge of the town did not change, but the first emperor Jiang Yehua gave a green dragon and tiger talisman to the eldest princess who commanded the thousand armies at the beginning, and there was no recovery since then.
Until the first emperor was dying, he only had a white tiger talisman in his hand, and he did not hand it over to the five princes along with the imperial throne, but handed it over to Jiang Ziran.
To tell the truth, at that time, Jiang Ziran looked at the tiger talisman in his hand, and then looked at the emperor's loving gaze, he knew the intentions of the first emperor, and tears fell like rain.
When the first emperor saw him crying, he also knew that he understood what he meant, so he tried to stretch out his hand and pat his hand and said: "Ziran, to be honest, I have been decisive in my life, bloody and bloody, and I have never regretted it again, but your mother's matter has made me feel pain for a lifetime and regret it for a lifetime.
OK...... Good thing to have you...... This is the only moment of relief in my remorse...... So...... You must hold this...... This is also the last thing I can do as a father...... "Emperor Xian tried to express his inner guilt and love.
"Father...... Jiang Ziran held the emperor's hand and nodded seriously.
"Whew...... Child, protect yourself, for the sake of me, for your mother, okay......" The emperor begged with a face.
"Father, the son knows, the son knows, the son knows......" Jiang Ziran was teary-eyed, choked up and couldn't speak.
"Whew...... Father ......" Jiang Ziran looked at the tiger talisman taken out of his arms, and his eyes moistened a little.
"Lord ......" Father-in-law Zhou, who was waiting on the side, looked at Jiang Ziran with such a sad appearance, and it was inevitable that he was a little touched.
"Whew...... Father-in-law Zhou, you're here, sit down......" Jiang Ziran looked back and saw Father-in-law Zhou with a gloomy face, took a deep breath and smiled slightly.
"Lord Wang, do you think of your master again?" Zhou Gonggong pursed his lips and said.
"Whew...... I often think of it, Father-in-law Zhou, you say...... Are my father and mother together? They should be having a good time now, right? Jiang Ziran said abruptly.
"Of course, the master must be with Queen Chenshu, and he is happy and happy, just like when the master and Queen Chenshu first met.
The old slave still remembers that at the beginning, in that piece of camellia, Queen Chenshu smiled when she inadvertently looked back, it was really like a bright star in the night sky, snatching people's souls.
The original emperor master was really amazed, standing in place stupidly, not knowing whether to move or not, for fear of shocking Empress Chenshu.
Hehe...... If it weren't for the eldest princess's joke, I'm afraid that the master would be about to make Queen Chenshu shy, hehehe...... Thinking about it, it was the first time he saw a girl's house, his face was red and his heart was beating, and he liked it to the point of being overwhelmed......" Zhou Gonggong recalled with a smile.
"Huh...... Is it that the meeting between my father and mother was so unexpected? Jiang Ziran liked to listen to Gonggong Zhou talk about the love and happiness between the first emperor and his mother in the early years.
"Yes, you don't know, Lord Chenshu, that is the only love of the first emperor in his life, the master really loves her, after Queen Chenshu is pregnant, the master is even more happy, hey...... It is precisely for this reason that ...... "Father-in-law Zhou didn't want to mention the unpleasant things before.
"Whew...... Therefore, my father regretted it for most of his life...... "Jiang Ziran also understood.
