Chapter 302: Did You Deliberately Do It?
Zhou An is also a dog.
Sure enough, you can't reason with the emperor, especially the female emperor.
"Xiao Anzi......" The empress squinted at Zhou An, and suddenly took the initiative to speak.
"Huh?" Zhou An squinted at the empress.
"Does your face hurt?" The empress asked, this question is really owed!
"As long as you are happy, it doesn't hurt." Zhou An said with a twitch at the corner of his mouth.
"Obviously, you let me beat ......" The empress seemed to have to put the blame on Zhou An.
“…… It's a good fight. Zhou An praised the empress again.
The empress's eyes flowed, and she raised her eyebrows again, as if she glanced at Zhou An with disgust.
What does this mean?
Zhou An doesn't understand the mentality of the empress a little, does he really want to take "responsibility", or does he want to explain something? Afraid that you will hate her?
No one noticed the special exchange between Zhou An and the empress by the window, the group of palace maids and eunuchs were all busy, or hanging their heads respectfully with the box, or busy with Kang Longji, Kang Longji's body had been wiped clean, and several old eunuchs were dressing him in longevity clothes.
It's a slow and complicated process.
Dressing is a very simple matter, but if you put a shroud on the deceased, and the deceased can't cooperate, if you don't care about the deceased's deceased, it won't work.
What's more, several old eunuchs who dressed Kang Longji had great respect for Kang Longji, and they didn't dare to have the slightest disrespect for Kang Longji's body, which even dragged on the process of pretending the corpse several times.
Take it easy.
The empress and Zhou An waited slowly.
In the blink of an eye, it was more than an hour.
Finally, the skilled old eunuch put on makeup for Kang Longji, who was wearing a shroud.
"Chief, grandpa is decent and can be put in the coffin." An old eunuch walked behind Zhou An and said respectfully.
In fact, he should report this matter to the empress, but now the empress is too scary, and it was Zhou An who asked them to change Kang Longji's clothes, and it is not inappropriate for them to report to Zhou An.
Zhou An turned around and looked in the direction of the bed.
The empress also turned around, and then hurried to the bed, and stopped with her feet, she looked at Kang Longji's remains, her eyes were red again, and there was even a trace of green tendons on her forehead, she snorted violently, and her excited body was shaking.
She seemed to be about to cry, but she was trying to control it.
This is an extremely complex emotion, which needs to be interpreted from multiple levels and angles, not only to show sadness and excitement, but also not to go too far, to suppress just right, and not to really lose shape.
Zhou An looked at it, then turned his head to look at the old eunuch and said, "You go out, carry the coffin outside the hall, and wait first." ”
"Yes." The old eunuch took the order.
The crowd quickly walked out of the main hall.
At the same time, Zhou An also walked to the bed.
The empress seemed to be unable to stand anymore and was about to fall.
Zhou An hurriedly hugged the empress and hugged the empress's shoulder.
The Empress began to burst into tears again.
The group of eunuchs and palace maids finally came out of the main hall.
The door of the side hall is closed.
At the moment when the door of the main hall was closed, the empress's cry came faintly, followed by an even bigger cry, the cry was very suppressive, but it was completely uncontrollable in the next moment, heartbreaking.
"Ahh......h Ah...... "I don't know if the empress is crying or shouting, it's all there."
She was completely devastated.
"Holy Lord, don't be like this, Grandpa Tai has a spirit in the sky, and I don't want you to be like this, but don't really cry and break your body......" Zhou An's voice came from the side hall.
The empress's cry turned to a suppressed one, and then to a whimper.
Outside the side hall, there is still a group of people in Wuyang.
They all heard it.
They can feel the pain and despair of the empress, and many people can understand the empress's feelings for Kang Longji, and they understand even more that the empress's pain and despair do not only come from Kang Longji's death itself.
It also comes from the changes brought about by Kang Longji's death.
The Wu Dynasty is in danger!
Inside the side hall.
The empress's body trembled so much, curled up slightly, if it wasn't for Zhou An hugging her, she would really fall to the ground, she was crying, crying at multiple levels and angles.
Zhou An hugged her, lifted her, and comforted her for a while before the empress controlled her emotions.
Zhou An helped her slowly sit on the edge of the bed.
The empress stared at Kang Longji's remains.
Zhou An accompanied the empress for a while, then walked out, pushed the door out of the side hall, Zhou An, whose eyes were red, stood on the steps with his hands in his hands, he saw that the coffin had been carried over, and the eunuchs knelt beside the coffin.
"Idle people, let's all disperse first." Zhou An said majestically, everyone can feel it, Zhou An's mood is very bad, very bad.
"Yes!" A group of leaders.
Most of the people left, except for some of the eunuchs who were the celebrants, who remained outside, guarding the coffin.
In fact, it is not in accordance with the rules to move the coffin here, not to mention whether this is the empress's bedroom, even if it is not, but other palaces, there is no reason to prepare a coffin for the eunuch, because the eunuch is a slave.
The coffin carried out from the palace contained either the emperor or the nobles in the palace, not anyone else!
According to Dongqian's rules, if a eunuch dies, whether he dies violently, dies of illness, or dies at the end of his life, the body is first transported out by carriage or carried out.
The difference in status determines whether the eunuch can be more decent after death.
But without exception, there was no coffin in the palace.
Kanglongji is obviously an exception!
In the 373 years since the founding of the Dongqian country, there is only one exception!
However, Zhou An only asked someone to send the coffin, as for when to enter the coffin and how to enter, the empress has the final say, because there has never been such an operation, and there are questions about some etiquette, and only the empress can have the final say, only she can change the previous rules.
……
In the side hall, the empress still looked at Kang Longji, and her expression was vivid.
Zhou An returned to the side hall again, closed the door, and walked to the bed.
"Holy Lord, it's okay." Zhou An said in a low voice.
The empress sat up straight suddenly, then got up and rubbed her face, her mouth opened and closed, her face was already stiff, and she didn't seem to be her own, and she was already a little sore.
"Xiao Anzi!" While rubbing her face, the empress raised her eyebrows at Zhou An and glared, "What kind of bad idea are you?" It's almost over, and no one in the hall makes me frozen, are you deliberately doing it? ”
"Hey, Holy Lord, you have wronged the minion, Holy Lord, you know, the so-called drama is a full set of ...... The performance you just gave can be described as unprecedented and unprecedented, shaking the past and the present, and the minions' admiration for you can be described as like a surging river, and like the flooding of the Yellow River out of control......" Zhou An still had to explain at first, and his voice became a sycophant as soon as he spoke.
"Okay, okay, don't be poor." The empress interrupted Zhou An's words and rolled her eyes, "Don't wake up Kang Gong yet?" Don't make a mistake......"
"Yes, Holy." Zhou An received the order.
Leaning over in front of the bed, Zhou An stretched out his hand and counted the dots on Kang Longji.
