Wearing plain mourning clothes is a sign of respect for the deceased. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The deceased is the greatest, no matter how unpopular Emperor Chu was during his lifetime, he was always the king of a country, the courtiers who entered the palace, the clan, even Xiao Yue had to mourn Emperor Chu after his death.

Gu Mingnuan traveled all the way, and the bright red and colorful ornaments had already been removed from the palace, and white lanterns or white cloths had been hung.

The eunuchs and maids in the palace were busy in an orderly manner, a large number of sacrificial supplies came out of the treasury and were arranged and hung, Gu Mingnuan felt that the funeral of Emperor Chu in this life would not be like the blood spattered on the spot in the previous life, and it would become a complete farce.

All the funeral matters of Emperor Chu, Empress Zhao is prepared.

"I've seen the county lord."

Father-in-law Su seemed to have lost half of his weight, he was dressed in white, his eyes were red and swollen, and he had obviously cried bitterly.

Gu Mingnuan said softly: "No need to be polite. ”

Gonggong Su reluctantly pulled the corners of his mouth, and also said in a low voice: "Niangniang hasn't arrived at the Qianqing Palace yet, Xiao Yue is waiting...... The rebellious ministers and thieves have arrived, clamoring that the prince is not the emperor's bloodline and should not inherit the unification. ”

"Niang Niang ...... His Majesty's funeral"

Originally, Gonggong Su, who took refuge in Empress Zhao, should have been more powerful, but he gave up the opportunity to work hard for his mother, and at the important moment of deciding the ownership of the throne, he chose to concentrate on taking care of the aftermath for Emperor Chu.

He didn't seem to care if he could continue to be the chief eunuch in the future.

"The old slave took the initiative to ask Niangniang for instructions, Your Majesty Songsong." Father-in-law Su wiped the corners of his red eyes, and choked up: "Send Your Majesty on the last journey, the old slave doesn't dare to let Your Majesty go too shabby......"

"Tap, tap, monkey cubs, you all give me a tap."

Gonggong Su left Gu Mingnuan and went straight to the little eunuch carrying the wooden box, quite sentimental and caressed the carved box cage, "This is filled with His Majesty's usual things, and it will be put into the Huangling Tomb in the future, and it will always accompany His Majesty." ”

Xiao Yang reminded Gu Mingnuan, "It's time to go." ”

"Hmm." Gu Mingnuan nodded, his steps were a little heavy, should he say that Gonggong Su betrayed Emperor Chu?

He is still loyal, but Emperor Chu's calculations made him feel cold.

"No matter how humble a slave is, he is also a human being, and he wants to live with dignity and dignity."

This time it was Xiao Yang's turn to bow his head, Gu Mingnuan faintly heard the quarrel that broke out in the Qianqing Palace, the struggle for power and profit became more and more fierce, and no one paid attention to the Chu Emperor who died of illness.

Considering Emperor Chu, he just just lost his breath.

Gu Mingnuan suddenly felt that Gonggong Su might be one of the only people who sincerely mourned for Emperor Chu.

In the Qianqing Palace, Xiao Yue's eyes narrowed slightly, standing at the head of the ministers, his tall and sturdy body contained infinite strength, giving people the feeling of being in his chest, even if the situation was unfavorable, he only needed to gently flip his wrist to determine the country.

The courtiers who followed Xiao Yue were more confident.

Xiao Yue did not argue with others, and the courtiers who supported Xiao Yue denied that the crown prince was not the bloodline of Emperor Chu and was not qualified to inherit the throne.

At the same time, some people even pointed out that Emperor Chu died suddenly and was killed by someone.

The spearhead was directed at Empress Zhao, who was in charge of palace affairs and often accompanied Emperor Chu.

Gu Mingnuan's footsteps paused slightly, worried about his mother, did Xiao Yue realize that his mother was not simple, or did he attack his mother in order to drag down the prince?

"Princess Yan."

“…… Xiahou nobles. ”

Unexpectedly, she actually met Xiahou Jing in filial piety clothes, and after Emperor Chu beat Xiahou Jing into the cold palace, he took away her position as the imperial concubine and demoted her to a nobleman.

The thin Xiahou Jing has a weak beauty, a pointed chin, blown-breakable skin, misty eyes, and white flowers between the temples, she is thrillingly beautiful, and people can't help but hold it in the palm of her hand and care for it carefully.

She has changed a lot.

The brightness of the first meeting can no longer be found in her.

Xiahou Jingshui's eyes flashed with an indescribable envy, Gu Mingnuan was as charming and beautiful as ever, and she looked more beautiful than when she was out of the pavilion.

Gu Mingnuan is very favored, yes, she has Gu Yan as her father, King Yan as her husband, and her younger brother who is still in infancy, as well as the first Mrs. Jiang of the Dynasty, and even the entire Nanyang Gu family as a backer, Gu Mingnuan doesn't have to worry about anything at all.

No one could get past her, and no one dared to give her a hard time.

is not like Xiahou Jing who became the abandoned son of Emperor Chu, if she does not look at Xiao Yue, she will have to die of old age and cold palace.

"Princess Yan is here to see the queen?" Xiahou Jing seemed to have a point, and her eyes seemed to see through all Gu Mingnuan's secrets, "I really didn't expect that Niangniang and Princess Yan are no worse than their own flesh and blood." ”

Xiahou Jing knows that she and Niangniang are mother and daughter!?

Gu Ming's warm face did not change and walked past Xiahou Jing, and when he saw Xiahou Jing, he was like a palace maid serving in the Qianqing Palace.

"Gu Mingnuan......" Xiahou Jing was so stimulated that she vomited blood, and she didn't see Gu Mingnuan's panic, as if the secrets she mastered could not affect Gu Mingnuan at all.

Gu Mingnuan didn't care, she could go around publicly, "Don't think I don't dare, I've already mentioned it to King Ruijun." ”

Xiahou was smug and proud, and said to Gu Mingnuan's back: "Gu Yan and Zhao Xiu'er** harem, the world is punished, you are an adulterer, no one can afford to look down on you......"

Bang, Xiahou Jing's eyes flickered, and she was slapped heavily on the cheek.

She covered her red and swollen cheeks, feeling her teeth loosened, "King Yan." ”

Xiao Yang took out a handkerchief to wipe the hand that incited Xiahou Jing to slap him, and his palms with distinct knots were as white as if they were carefully carved by white jade, "Do you still know King Yan?" ”

Xiahou Jing felt a momentum tearing her body, and it was rumored in the capital that King Yan's reverse scale was Gu Mingnuan, but she didn't take it seriously, and was so excited by Gu Mingnuan's ignorance that she got carried away.

"King Ruijun, help, help."

Xiahou Jing lifted her skirt, turned around and ran into the Qianqing Palace, and pounced directly on Xiao Yue, "Princess Yan killed people and killed her mouth, and begged King Ruijun for help." ”

Her screams silenced the arguing Qianqing Palace.

Gu Mingnuan was very funny, "You deliberate?!" ”

The tone was extremely affirmative, without Xiao Yang's nod, how could the guards guarding the gate of the Qianqing Palace let Xiahou Jing in?

"I saw you wink at them."

"They are either Xiao Yue's people, or Niangniang's people." Xiao Yang said slowly, "This king's eyes are not good." ”

The guards trembled their arms, knelt on the ground, and said in a loud voice: "I have seen His Royal Highness King Yan." ”

No matter who he is loyal to, King Yan cannot be offended.

Even if some of the guards were brought by Xiao Yue, they were only loyal to Xiao Yue.

Gu Mingnuan glanced at Xiao Yang, he was too capable of pretending!

Xiao Yang has not yet stepped into the Qianqing Palace, every courtier in the Qianqing Palace feels a great sense of oppression, although in recent days, King Yan is unusually low-key, does not involve court disputes, and quietly takes children in the house, not like Xiao Yue, the queen is active and refuses anyone to visit, but no one dares to despise Xiao Yang!

Xiahou Jing knelt down in front of Xiao Yue's eyes, "King Ruijun, I have evidence to prove that Gu Mingnuan is ...... It is a sinister species, Zhao Xiuer and Gu Yan intend to usurp the throne. ”
