Chapter 532: National Funeral

At this time, many people thought of the fact that in Qingcheng, the Queen Mother was coerced by Prime Minister Song, that is, the high priest of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and supported the Seven Princes as emperors.

Could it be because of this incident that the emperor has a pimple in his heart, so he doesn't plan to give the king's fief?

But after thinking about it carefully, I feel that it is a little unreasonable, after all, the seven princes are still children, and they are also coerced to be the emperor.

However, what does it mean not to dare to be the emperor, it is obviously a foregone conclusion that the seven princes cannot be crowned kings, but what does it mean to give the seven princes to King Xian to raise?

Everyone has doubts in their hearts, but they all bury their doubts deep in their hearts, and it is not appropriate to ask more questions at this time.

After Wang Ge Lao read out the edict on the succession of the crown prince and the succession of the prince to the throne, he took out an edict by the way, which was about the edict of the auxiliary minister, and it seemed that the emperor was still not at ease about the succession of the prince.

After the edict was read out, Wang Ge Lao turned around and replied to His Majesty, and the emperor leaned on the head of the bed, his eyes slightly closed and waved his hand.

Although the emperor did not speak, He Shun understood what the emperor meant, spoke up for the emperor, and asked the courtiers below to retreat, leaving only the royal family.

After the courtiers retreated, the eldest princess An Le threw herself down next to the dragon couch, wailing and shouting, "Brother Huang, Brother Huang, you have to take care." ”

However, the emperor still leaned on the head of the bed with his eyes slightly closed, and didn't pay attention to the eldest princess at all, Princess Xinyi looked at the eldest princess with disgust, frowned and said, "There are no tears, don't act, it's too fake." ”

was actually said by the juniors, the eldest princess couldn't hold it on her face, and was about to open her mouth to reprimand Princess Xinyi, but she heard the emperor on the bed finally speak, "It's too noisy." ”

The eldest princess didn't dare to speak again, and obediently closed her mouth, and was silent for a while before she spoke, "Brother Huang, the queen mother is very worried about you and wants to come and see you." ”

The emperor opened his eyes, finally glanced at the eldest princess, then took a deep breath and said, "Since this is not an outsider, Heshun, tell everyone the truth." ”

After speaking, the emperor closed his eyes again, obviously not having the extra strength to speak again.

But there was a trace of panic on the eldest princess's face, and she said anxiously, "Brother Huang......"

However, Heshun has already opened his mouth, "The Queen Mother is actually not Your Majesty's own mother, Your Majesty is the son of Xu Guiren, at that time, the Queen Mother was the identity of the concubine, the child unfortunately died, so His Majesty and his own children were exchanged, Xu Guiren lost his beloved son, died of depression, and the truth of His Majesty's life experience was also concealed." ”

The people in the hall looked at each other when they heard this, they never thought that His Majesty and the Queen Mother were not biological mothers and sons, but what did it mean to announce such news at this time?

But soon everyone understood what the emperor meant, and then listened to Heshun and continued, "But the queen mother has the grace of nurturing Your Majesty, and when the new emperor ascends the throne, she will enjoy the honor of the queen mother, but she can no longer interfere in the affairs of the court, if you forcibly interfere, the new emperor can announce this matter to the world." ”

The eldest princess sat on the ground with a pale face, and was no longer in the mood to cry.

The emperor opened his eyes again and spoke weakly, "Prince." ”

The crown prince hurriedly stood up, stepped forward to kneel beside the emperor, and answered, "Father, the son is here." ”

The emperor opened his eyes, looked at the prince on the side, and said, "Our Dugu family is already thin, the third child has no ambitions, and the sixth child is still a child, I hope you can ...... Be kind to your brothers and sisters, and they will be your back in the future. ”

The prince replied, "The sons and daughters remember the teachings of their father. ”

The emperor spoke up again, "The third child." ”

The third prince passed over and knelt down beside the emperor, and replied with red eyes, "Father." ”

The emperor looked at the third prince and sighed, "After marrying the second girl of the Ji family, you will take her to the fiefdom." ”

After that, the sixth prince, who was still a child, kneeling beside the emperor and still sobbing, the emperor raised his hand with difficulty, reached out and touched the head of the sixth prince, and then said, "When your uncle Xuan comes back, let him take you to Liaodong." ”

The sixth prince cried and responded, "The sons are not going, the sons have to accompany their fathers." ”

The emperor's expression was slightly dark, and he rebuked in a stern tone, "Obedient." ”

The six princes were reluctant to respond, but the emperor sighed, and the sentence 'I am also for your good' was not said after all.

Finally, he looked at Xinyi and Ji Ruhuan, finally showed a smile on his face, and beckoned to the two.

Several princes gave way and let the two of them sit down beside the emperor, Princess Xinyi reached out and grabbed the emperor's thin hand, silently shedding tears, but trying to squeeze out a smile on her face.

Because His Majesty said that he doesn't like to see them cry, but likes their smiles.

Hearing the emperor's sigh, he said, "I am most pleased that I have found a good home for all of you, and I am sad that I will not be able to see your child come to life after all, but I have prepared the child's gift for them, and I have asked Heshun to keep it for me, and when the child is born, I will send it to them." ”

After saying so many words, the emperor was tired and gasped, and Princess Xinyi shed tears and pressed her chest for the emperor, and said, "Thank you, father." ”

The emperor took a deep breath, smiled again, and muttered, "In my life, the happiest thing is to have you by your side from time to time, not to treat me as an emperor, but only as a father and elder, so that I can realize the preciousness of my relatives......"

The sound grew quieter and quieter, until it was completely silent.

Princess Xinyi choked up and called her father twice, and then cried to the side of the dragon couch, Ji Ruhuan looked at the emperor who was still smiling on his face, but he was out of breath, and he cried silently.

After that, he heard a gentle and mournful voice and said loudly, "Your Majesty has returned to heaven." ”

The low death knell rang in the palace, accompanied by a faint cry.

In Kyoto, both dignitaries and ordinary people have changed into plain clothes.

Ji Ruhuan was the same, kneeling beside Princess Xinyi in linen and filial piety, her eyes were red, and she had to comfort Princess Xinyi, who was crying breathlessly.

His Majesty's funeral was seven days, and Princess Xinyi was sad and had to kneel outside the mourning hall all day long to cry and mourn and keep filial piety, plus she was pregnant, she fainted after two days, and she also had fetal gas, and was forcibly sent back to Wang's house to raise the fetus.

Ji Ruhuan is fine, but even if her physical fitness is good, after seven days, she has lost a lot of weight.

And several general soldiers on the border finally rushed back before His Majesty entered the mausoleum.

After sending His Majesty into the mausoleum, He Shun voluntarily stayed in the Imperial Mausoleum and guarded the mausoleum for His Majesty.

Ji Ruhuan spoke first, "I will have to work hard in the future." ”

Heshun sighed and responded, "Your Majesty is gone, I'm afraid this is the best destination for the Sprinkle family, leaving the two, it is Your Majesty who still has something to leave for the two." ”
