The Queen Mother died, and the palace died. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The palace people below immediately removed all the red cloth and festive things from the main hall of Shou'an Palace, hung up white canvases, arranged sacrificial fruits and candles, and prepared braziers and paper money.
Their hands and feet were very sharp, but in two hours, the mourning hall was arranged.
This night, according to the rules, all the concubines and heirs and the close relatives of the Queen Mother must guard the Queen Mother in the mourning hall, Liuli puts on a shroud for the Queen Mother, and the small chamberlain below carries the Queen Mother to the Zi Palace, and then carries the Zi Palace to the front of the mourning hall.
The concubines knelt on the futon in order, the imperial heir and other people knelt behind the concubines, and the palace maids knelt on both sides, burning paper money for the queen mother.
At that time, Wang Ningxuan had already woken up and knelt at the front of the team, and Yun Tian knelt behind her.
Although the temple was full of kneeling people, it was silent.
The silence of the atmosphere was a little suffocating.
The attendant who performed the etiquette stood at the forefront, and the sharp voice of the male duck pierced the silent night: "For the Queen Mother, kowtow!" ”
Everyone shouted: "Queen Mother! Then they all kowtowed.
The chamberlain said, "Kowtow again!" ”
The crowd shouted again: "Queen Mother! Then they all kowtowed.
In this way, a total of three kneels and nine prostrations are performed before prostrations are stopped.
The chamberlain stretched out his voice again and said, "Cry! ”
The crowd did not dare to slack off, and they began to cry one after another.
This is etiquette, you have to cry, you have to cry if you can't cry, and you have to cry on the night of the wake, that is to say, you have to cry all night.
Among the people, some were really sad, crying from the heart, sincerely mourning for the Queen Mother, and some were coping, pretending to cry loudly, and the tears didn't know where they came from.
Yun Tian belongs to the latter, for the death of the Queen Mother, Yun Tian's heart did not have much sadness, but was relieved, as if the big stone pressed on the heart finally fell to the ground.
The Queen Mother is gone, and there is no one pressing her on it anymore, she can also take a good breath, straighten her waist, and live well!
For the Queen Mother, there was naturally some complaint, but now, she is gone, and the resentment and pain she once had have disappeared with her gone, and now, Yun Tian has no hatred in his heart, although there is not much sadness, but seeing Xi Ze and the Queen are so sad, Yun Tian's heart is also very uncomfortable.
I went back to change into plain clothes just now, Yun Tian was afraid that he wouldn't be able to cry, so he specially asked Rui'er to find chili water and wipe a little on his eyes, but now his eyes hurt so badly that he didn't need to cry, and the tears flowed down. I can't stop it.
Yun Tian was overjoyed in his heart, if there were no tears flowing out now, he would definitely be blamed, now it's okay, with chili water, there are more tears, Yun Tian hurriedly cooperated and cried, and kept crying.
It's just that Yun Tian was worried in his heart, Xi Ze didn't come to the mourning hall, he was still sitting in the queen mother's bedroom, probably sad, and he didn't know what was going on, Yun Tian wanted to comfort him, but now he had to guard the queen mother's soul here, and for a while, he couldn't leave, so he could only be anxious.
Yun Tian turned his eyes and looked behind him, the two children were crying hard, as if they were a little numb from crying, and they couldn't help but be a little worried.
However, the saddest cry was the queen who knelt at the front. The queen is the saddest person except Xi Ze, she had already fainted from crying inside just now, and now she is crying very sadly when she kneels on the mourning hall, and she doesn't know how long she has been crying like this, and she suddenly sobbed, as if she was a little out of breath!
Yun tilted and looked at Wang Ningxuan, suddenly hung his heart, and was about to persuade two sentences, Shen Luyi suddenly supported Wang Ningxuan and said: "Niangniang, you must mourn, you must not cry like this, you must not be so sad!" You cried and fainted just now, and now if you are so sad again, I am afraid that you will cry and faint again, and now you are guarding the spirit of the Queen Mother, but you can't be lazy! Mother, don't be so sad again! ”
Wang Ningxuan heard it as if he hadn't heard it, and continued to cry again.
Shen Luyi sighed, and then persuaded: "The Queen Mother is gone, there are still many things in this palace that you need to take care of, don't cry like this, it's too hurtful, how can the Queen Mother be at ease when she looks at it from the sky?" Niangniang, the Queen Mother said, I hope you live a long life, you have to take care of your phoenix body! You can't cry like this, mother, don't be too sad...... Mother, why don't you eat something first, you haven't eaten all day, how can your body survive like this? ”
Wang Ningxuan remained motionless, crying sadly, and did not say a word.
Shen Luyi couldn't help but be anxious, and said again: "Niangniang, you stop for a while and drink saliva!" Drink the water and keep crying, otherwise the tears won't be enough later! ”
With that, he handed the water over.
Wang Ningxuan stopped, took a few sips, and pushed away!
Shen Luyi said again: "Niangniang, Wang Jieyu is pregnant, I'm afraid I can't kneel for a night like this, now that I've kowtowed and cried, do you want her to go to the side hall to rest?" ”
Wang Ningxuan was slightly stunned when he heard this, as if he couldn't react, and said after a while: "Yes, yes, Wang Jieyu is pregnant, she can't kneel, let her go to the side hall to rest, you must take care of the child, don't add any more sad things to the emperor!" ”
"Yes!" Shen Luyi replied, and then said to the back, "Wang Jieyu, the queen has a decree to order you to rest in the side hall, and you must take care of the child!" ”
Wang Jieyu was immediately overjoyed, but she didn't dare to show it, and still said with tears in her eyes: "Thank you Queen Mother!" With that, he got up and withdrew.
The rest of the crowd continued to cry.
I have been crying for more than two hours, everyone is already tired of crying, and the crying voice has obviously weakened a lot, and the buzzing in the mourning hall is all hoarse voices.
The attendant who performed the etiquette again pulled the voice of the male duck and said loudly: "Crying......"
He specially dragged the sound of the word "crying" for a long time, and everyone was very uncomfortable listening to this shrill voice, but they had to follow the etiquette, cheer up, and cry carefully.
As a result, the crying in the mourning hall became louder again, and everyone cried very hard.
The effect of Yun Tilt's chili water has long passed, there are a few lines of tears on his face, but he can't shed a single tear in his eyes, but he cries numbly, he has been crying for so long, and he is already very tired, but he still wants to continue crying, he wants to cry all night, Yun Tilt has the strength to cry, but she can't cry tears, she rubbed her eyes vigorously, and finally there are tears again.
Yun Tian followed everyone and cried hard. (To be continued.) )
