Chapter 712: The world is sad
The emperor and queen died on the same day, except for those kings who died in the country, there is really no precedent, so how to govern this ceremony also makes the Ministry of Rites worried.
Li Chengqian sent people to ask questions five or six times a day, and the eldest grandson Wuji simply sat in the Ministry of Rites with a gloomy face, and the Ministry of Rites quarreled endlessly, and he couldn't come up with a charter.
The official document of the death of the emperor and empress spread all over the world, and Li Zhi only pursed his lips when he learned that Li Shimin had died, but when he learned that the eldest grandson went with Li Shimin, he almost cried.
Immediately ordered the whole army to mourn, and no one was allowed to raise a sword during the funeral.
The news spread all the way to the countries of the Western Regions, and many countries hung up white flags, and no one could deny that before the war, the trade policy of the emperor of the Tang State made the people of many countries eat.
After Lu Dongzan got the news, he was uncomfortable for a long time, of course he was not sad about Li Shimin's death, he was uncomfortable with the tough attitude of the Tang Dynasty, and Cai Cong actually became the generalissimo of soldiers and horses.
In the past three months, there will be absolutely no chaos in Datang, which means that he will have to consume three more months of grain and grass in Tubo, what is the difference between this and cutting his meat?
What annoyed him the most was that Li Shimin didn't die of poison, what about the meticulous work that he arranged early in the morning? In case someone stupidly stands up and slanders the filial son who vomited blood and fainted in the main hall, it is a small matter if he is beaten to death, if he is served by Shun Teng, then he will really cry.
However, the face project still has to be done, how to say that Li Shimin was in Chang'an many times to him as a corporal. He still ordered the whole army to wear linen, hang up the white flags and hang up the exemption card.
Chang'an is still arguing for the big gift, and the princes and ministers have entered Beijing to worship, and there are all kinds of undercurrents surging.
Some people keep vigil in the mourning hall during the day, and at night they bring gold, silver and jewelry to the mansions of the ministers.
Da Niu kept sending information to Cai Cong's public case, looking at the clowns who jumped off the beam, Cai Cong sneered constantly.
Li Zhi, the most outstanding among these people, was beaten like a dog, and the rest of these waste materials still thought that this group of ministers would risk their lives to support them?
"Lord Wang, the prime minister and the eldest grandson are invited to come over the house for a gathering." Da Niu said and put the post in front of Cai Cong, Cai Cong nodded and coldly spit out two words: "Prepare a sedan chair!" ”
If you are in a bad mood, you don't need to give anyone a good face, Cai Cong is not like Li Chengqian, when he is sad, when he meets with the officials of the feudal territory, he has to be pleasant.
When the three of them met, they all put on a face, and the eldest grandson Wuji threw a fold on the table, suppressed his anger and said to Cai Cong: "Look, look at what good things these princes have done." ”
Fang Xuanling also sat on the side with a calm face and did not speak, obviously angry.
Cai Cong squinted his eyes and said coldly: "Your share of the excerpt is just to impeach them for listening to music and music behind closed doors at night, or look at my excerpt, you can be angry and angry." ”
As he spoke, he took out the fold from his arms and threw it on the table, the eldest grandson Wuji took it and took a look, slapped the fold on the table violently, and roared in a low voice: "Your Majesty's bones are not cold, how dare they do this?" ”
After reading it, Fang Xuanling said with anger on his face: "Unfilial piety, disloyalty, unkindness, injustice, absurdity, the old man should ask the emperor to demote them to concubines." ”
"None of them are in the climate, and no one will attach themselves to them, and my fear is that they may assassinate or poison His Majesty."
"At this point, Lord Eldest Sun doesn't need to worry, I have already made arrangements, now the meals Your Majesty eats from collection to cooking to the final table, there are at least four groups of people to monitor each link, there are six people to try the dishes, and there are people sent by the secret guards in terms of security, and it is whimsical to kill Your Majesty Unless they can send a large army to besiege it."
Cai Cong said lightly, the eldest grandson Wuji nodded reassuringly, but Cai Cong continued: "What I'm afraid of now is that these people are doing nonsense, the first emperor has been mourned, and there are no less than 500 people who have entered the court and come to pay tribute, if they are allowed to make trouble on the spot, this ugly family will be known to the world!" ”
"How dare they?"
Fang Xuanling shouted, and his angry eyebrows rose upside down. The eldest grandson Wuji didn't think about it and said, "Why don't these people dare? The town king doesn't know what to plan? ”
"The plan can't be said, the first emperor has made a big trip, they actually dare to let the queen mother go quietly, originally I wanted to kill them all, but considering the crowd's money, I am afraid that they will say that His Majesty will exclude dissidents as soon as he ascends the throne, so I didn't do it."
Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji's eyelids jumped, this guy is now in power, killing these princes actually cares about the reputation of the new emperor, if it is after a while, who else he does not dare to kill?
"So what now?" Fang Xuanling's voice couldn't help but drop a little lower, this stunned young man can't afford to offend!
"If they want to bribe the minister, let them bribe! After returning to send the emperor, after entering the mausoleum, I will take down all these people, first, I will not let them make trouble, and second, I will clean them up in the name of great unfilial piety and disloyalty without seeing them off. What do the two prime ministers think? ”
"This plan works!"
"The old man seconded it!"
The two of them spoke one after another, and this method was much gentler, if Cai Cong really planned to kill people directly, then there would definitely be chaos.
"I've heard that there are a lot of funerals, but I don't know how it's now?"
Cai Cong saw that the matter was settled, so he changed the topic, these unsuccessful princes are really not a problem, the three of them just don't want others to say that they are independent and have monopolity.
"The old man is worried, his hair and beard are all white! The nickname has been decided, the first emperor was called Emperor Wen, and then he was called Empress Wende. You weren't in front of the coffin yesterday, those ministers, some wept bitterly, some cut their faces and hair, some cut their palms and sprinkled blood on the ground, and some cut off their ears, and those who didn't know thought that the first emperor was theirs. ”
"It is not surprising that Your Majesty is their heavenly khan, and they naturally want to express their grief with the most solemn ceremonies of their country. Otherwise, when you turn around and ask for sin, how can you be embarrassed to say that you were fooled by Tubo? ”
Cai Cong said with a disdainful sneer, since the alliance with Tubo, they have not come to pay tribute for several years, this time they came in such a hurry, if they really came to mourn, there would be ghosts.
The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head, no matter how this scene is written, future generations will be infected by the great personality of the first emperor when they read the history books.
"These envoys of Fanbang are just that, the two generals in the court, Ashina Sheer, Qibi He Li, knelt in front of the coffin and cut their faces, and the blood was in a hurry, saying that they only admired the greatness of the first emperor in their lives, and wanted to be martyred as the emperor and guard the mausoleum.
The old man is trembling now, if there is anything wrong with this specification and etiquette, I am afraid that he will be spurned by the ministers! Yesterday, a ceremonial official said that the emperor should enter the mausoleum first, and then send him to the mausoleum, just like that, he was almost beaten to death in the official office! ”
The eldest grandson Wuji said uneasily, no one praised him for doing a good job, and he would be spurned for a lifetime if he didn't do it well.
