Chapter 25: The Truth of History

Tell the world that the emperor is dead!

The Son of Heaven is buried, and the coffin is temporarily placed in the Xuanshu Palace!

Order the civil and military officials to enter the palace, and cry in front of the first emperor's spirit!

The relevant people are stepping up the mausoleum project!

The capital is under martial law, and the princes enter Beijing to mourn!

……

Wang Mang listed all the things to be done after the death of the Son of Heaven, no matter how big or small, and then asked the Empress Dowager to show it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

After the old lady read it, she added three more to it, and the meaning was very simple:

First, the palace gate guards uniformly obeyed Wang Mang's orders.

Second, take back the previous commander of the army seal letter symbol, who wants to transfer troops in the future, must first get Wang Mang's consent.

Third, before the new emperor ascended the throne, if the civil and military officials had urgent matters, Wang Mang would transfer them to himself.

Then stamp the jade seal and let Wang Mang start to execute.

The old lady was old, and she was tired after dealing with things, so Wang Mang and others persuaded her to go back to the palace to rest.

After accompanying the old lady out of the Xuanshu Palace, Wang Shu exhaled deeply, looking north at the entire Chang'an City, as if covered in tulle, making it impossible to see through.

And the Weiyang Palace, built on the Longshou Plain, is like the Heavenly Palace under the smoke.

Now that Daddy can pick fruits, it's time for the whole person to relax. But for some reason, the current king is like a thorn in his back.

Why, Wang Shu rubbed his nose vigorously, but he couldn't figure it out.

Whatever, the sky fell and there was a tall man on top, thinking of this, Wang Shu was resurrected with full blood.

"Auntie, this time you have to believe that you are the white jade pillar of our big man, and you have to build the purple gold beam of the sea, as long as you are old, it is not a big thing."

Seeing that the old lady was sullen, Wang Shu comforted.

"Alas, my aunt and grandmother are really old, this big man ......"

The old lady was only halfway through her sentence and then stopped talking, but the crutches in her hand were clutched tightly.

After that, the old lady remained silent.

When he returned to Linhua Palace, seeing that the old lady's mood had not improved, Wang Shu spoke again.

"Auntie, my grandson did something wrong today, please punish me."

"Huh?"

"When I came to Changle Palace today, because I was in a hurry, the horse knocked a woman who looked about your age."

"Got a human life?"

"That's not it, it's just a little injury."

"Then you should also compensate the other family for some money."

"Nope!"

"You ran away?"

"No, I saw that the horse hit someone, so I quickly dismounted and said, "Sister, are you okay?" So the grandson ran away. ā€

"You leather monkey, you know that you are trying to make your aunt and grandmother happy, so you made up a joke to tell the old body. It's okay, the matter of birth, old age, sickness and death, my aunt and grandmother have already seen it, but who will inherit the unification is an embarrassing thing. ā€

"Aunt, grandmother, grandson also thinks that the top priority after the death of the Son of Heaven is to elect the successor, and also, if that Dong Xian is still in the position of the great Sima, wouldn't it be a corpse vegetarian meal, why didn't you mention it to my father?"

"To choose the Son of Heaven, you have to wait for the princes to arrive, after all, it is the world of the Liu family, as for Dong Xian, he is just a traitorous villain, just find someone to impeach. Even if you don't talk about these things, your father knows about them. ā€

After thinking a lot, seeing that the old lady was finally willing to say a few more words, Wang Shu decided to stay with her for a while.

"No wonder my aunt and grandmother ordered my father to temporarily take charge of the palace gate guards and the world's soldiers and horses, and the hundred officials must pass through him first, this is giving them a hint!"

"Where did the messy ideas come from? The crown prince died, but the country could not stop operating, and now that the new emperor has not been established, the old body is afraid that something will happen again, so he arranged it like this. Hint? The ministers of the court and the central government let the Son of Heaven do nothing one by one, just to give them hints, and it is strange that they can understand it. ā€

Unexpectedly, in the eyes of the old lady, the current ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee have become no good people in Hongtong County.

……

After Liu Xin's death, Guanzhong, which had been dry for more than two months, experienced a heavy rain, and the land became vibrant again.

After thirty-six days of mourning for the Son of Heaven, Taixue restarted classes, and Wang Shu couldn't stand the lecture methods and teaching content of those teachers, so he naturally skipped class.

Whoever hears a teacher divide the eight ways of writing fennel into 30 lessons, even if he quotes scriptures and quotes from the side, he can't listen to the foam of the mouth.

It was only at this time that Wang Shu understood why few of the Tai students who had studied in the highest institutions of learning in the Han Dynasty could really leave their names in history.

"Fool, the longer you stay in Taixue, the more stupid you will be." These are Zhao Peng's original words.

"If it weren't for the fact that he could become an official in Taixue, those doctors would have already suffered countless bricks on their heads!" So says the lamentation.

"Although knowledge sometimes needs to be broken and crumpled to be explained, sometimes it is too cumbersome." Wang Xian also had to admit it.

Enter the palace to relieve the boredom of the Queen Mother! The reason for Wang Yu's skipping class is very simple, but it is also the biggest, so big that even Wang Mang can't say a word.

The world is big, and now the Empress Dowager is the biggest, and accompanying her old man is definitely politically correct, so correct that she doesn't even need to go to Taixue to ask for leave.

"Now that the news has spread in Taixue, after hearing that the Son of Heaven had died, the Empress Dowager immediately drove to Weiyang Palace, Fu Weiwei knelt down to ask for peace, but was beaten several times by the Empress Dowager with a cane."

They also said that on that day, the Marquis of Xindu pointed at Dong Sima with a sword in his hand and said: The Son of Heaven died, the new monarch was not established, you were deeply affected by the grace of the first emperor Long, and you did not cry in front of the spirit of the Emperor Daxing, but you took the jade seal of the country as your own, did you want to attract the disaster of killing? Only then did Dong Sima be so frightened that he knelt down and took out the jade seal, otherwise he would definitely be killed. ā€

"There are even more rumors, saying that the empress dowager wants to imitate the system of Empress Lu's dynasty, so she handed over the military talisman of the imperial court to the new capital marquis, and let the new capital marquis take over the palace guards."

"Some people say that all the letters from the hundred officials were accepted by the new capital marquis, and now they are even better than Dong Sima at the beginning!"

Before the princes who came to Beijing for the funeral arrived, Wang Shu heard the rumors that were prevalent in Beijing from the three people who came to mourn Zhang, Zhao Peng, and Huo Hong, and Chen Yu and Wei Zheng, who were sitting together, also said that there was really such a thing.

Although they had more or less heard the truth about the Empress Dowager's invasion of the palace from Wang Shu, an eyewitness, they were all beaten up when they tried to explain one or two things to the rumor-mongers.

"The neighbor of my second father's third aunt's husband's grandson is the guard of the North Sima Gate of Weiyang Palace, and the Queen Mother's invasion of the palace happened the day before he was on duty, and he is the real witness."

"That is, the matchmaker of a neighbor's sister-in-law who was three miles away from my house happened to pass by that day, and saw the Empress Dowager personally firing the bow, and Fu Weiwei was hit by several arrows."

Now Aizhang and the others are confused, and they can't tell who is telling the truth. Even Wang Shu himself felt that in the face of rumors, he could only be educated to be a new person in minutes with his own mouth.

It is said that history is written by the victors, but as a person who has witnessed the facts, he can't make a voice in the face of rumors, is this the truth of history?
