On the death of the emperor, the whole world mourns.

The ministers of the Chinese military department of the dynasty got up before dawn, bathed in incense, dressed in white clothes, with white flowers, and all the ladies and ladies who usually like to compete for beauty also ordered plain makeup today, only adding less noticeable careful thinking in some small parts, after all, no matter how old they are, they don't like to show their plain faces in front of people.

Therefore, although today is a day of great mourning, the carriages and horses are surging towards the gate of the palace, and when the lady and the lady get off the car, Li Tong still feels that it is a scene of a hundred flowers blooming.

Tut!

Li Tong shook her head and sighed lightly, and then looked down at herself, fortunately she listened to the maid's words and also wore light makeup, otherwise she would really be compared.

"Madame, what are you looking at?"

Bai Li Ye sat in the position a little inside, and saw that Li Tong did not move, only looking outward, and he also followed suit, except for those unfamiliar ladies and misses, who were ministers of the court, it seemed that none of them could make Li Tong happy.

"It's nothing, it's sad to look at." Li Tongyan said insincerely.

Then Bai Li Ye took the lead in getting out of the carriage, and reflexively handed his hand to Li Tong who was moving out, Li Tong took advantage of the situation and fell to the ground with Bai Li Ye's generous palm.

The crowd was surging, and even if they got off the bus in an inconspicuous corner, there were still a lot of eyes on them, and there were even courtiers who came to visit them with their families.

Out of politeness, Li Tong also returned the salute.

Afterwards, several people entered the palace gate together.

Li Yinzhi, as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, arrived early, Qiu Xin'er accompanied Mrs. Li's side, quietly, with the fierce and vicious appearance in the mouth of the impermanent, but extremely well-behaved and virtuous, occasionally nodding to Mrs. Li's words, it seems that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is harmonious and stable.

When Mrs. Li saw Li Tong coming, her eyes suddenly lit up.

Li Tong also saw it, and pulled Bai Li Ye's sleeve, Bai Li Ye understood, and immediately said goodbye to the previous minister, and walked towards that side with Li Tong.

"Mother!" Li Tong called in a low voice.

Mrs. Li didn't seem to have seen Li Tong for a long time, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red, Qiu Xin'er smiled at Li Tong, and Li Tong also bent the corners of her lips and shouted "sister-in-law".

It was not a suitable occasion for gatherings and exchanges, and several people did not talk together for a long time before they were introduced into the inner hall by the chamberlain.

The process of the death is very complicated, for Li Tong, it is even more boring than listening to the old monk chanting, and there are so many people staring at her, she can't even be lazy.

The men and women stood separately, and Li Tong looked not far away, just in front of the eyes of hundreds of Li Ye.

Bai Li Ye gave her a reassuring look, and Li Tong pursed his lips and retracted his head.

After a while, she moved her numb feet slightly, and looked around, the Imperial City Guard stood at the farthest point, carrying a fierce weapon at his waist, with a solemn expression, and everyone was also tied with a white strap on their arm.

Looking at the ministers standing in Baili Ye's area, all of them had solemn faces and serious expressions, looking at them all sincerely mourning for the emperor, but they didn't know how much they wanted to take the throne for themselves.

Li Tong narrowed his eyes and carefully observed his surroundings.

It's still early now, and people who want to do it shouldn't pick this time, the secret guards under the Imperial City Guard and Ji Yin's hands are all focused and full of vigilance, and doing it at this time is undoubtedly a handle.

The ministers who were still standing here after being troubled by Liu Xing before were also immobile at this time, and they could really calm down.

But also, I've been waiting for so long, and I don't care about waiting for a few more hours.

The death of the emperor will last for three days, and they will have enough time to catch each other's heads and tails, and the other party will have enough time to hide and wait.

On the high platform in front of him, Baili Xian raised his arms high, his eyes closed, and knelt heavily on the ground in the long groan of the waiter, even if he was far away, Li Tong felt that he could hear the sound of his tooth-aching knees hitting the ground.

The old queen mother rarely appeared in front of everyone, her chin was slightly closed, her expression was restrained, her eyes seemed to be covered with a very thick layer of mist, she couldn't see what kind of emotion it was, Li Tong only felt that it was really as Bai Li Ye said, the old queen mother was very deep in the city and was good at hiding her thoughts, but was she really not sad?

Not really.

A day husband and wife still have a hundred days, let alone a young couple.

It's just like it was back then

Under the situation, if she didn't stand, there would be no Baili Xian ascending the throne later.

After Li Tong saw the content of standing on the high platform and reciting the past exploits of the emperor and mourning the emperor's premature death, he reverently put away the holy decree and shouted "kneel".

Li Tong looked around, and quickly weakened his knees and knelt down.

After that, there was a long silence, and when it was over, Li Tong only felt that her legs were so weak that she couldn't get up at all, but fortunately, the person next to her helped her, and she stood up slowly with her knees.

Seeing this, Baili Ye in the distance hurriedly walked over.

"What's wrong?"

"It's okay, it's just that my legs are weak after kneeling for a long time." Li Tong explained, and smiled at the person who helped her, it was a lady with a kind face.

Baili Ye was distressed, so he had to hold Li Tong's arm and let her use her strength to slow down.

"When do they move?" After saying goodbye to the lady for a while, Li Tong leaned on Bai Li Ye's arm and asked in a low voice.

"I don't know."

"I just observed that a few people who had been tossed by Lord Liu for so long and still survived looked at it without any trace just now, as if they were confident."

"I really have a lot of confidence." Baili Ye responded, his eyes were cold, and Lian Rui hadn't found the people in the inn yet.

Bai Li Ye looked down at Li Tong's worried look, touched the top of her hair, and said, "Madame, don't worry, the grasshoppers after the autumn won't be able to jump for long." ”

Li Tong didn't doubt that he had him, but he felt that Baili Ye was also confident when he saw it, and he should be ready.

The ministers retreated to the square, rested for an hour at noon, bathed and fasted, and the courtiers went to the imperial tomb, and the women were to begin copying the Buddhist scriptures for burning at the ancestral hall the next day.

On the second day, nothing happened, but the imperial city guard was suddenly mobilized for a while, but it did not cause a commotion, Li Tong copied the Buddhist scriptures for a whole night, only got a moment of rest at noon during lunch, because of fatigue caused by some mental power, fortunately Li Yinxian sent some refreshing pills, barely let her support until the dinner.

Collective vegetarian fasting.

Li Tong never expected that he would encounter such a spectacular scene.

Although the weather is getting warmer now, the appearance of these hundreds of people sitting in the square eating tofu and vegetables is really amazing, and it is estimated that this is the only time in this life.

Although it is a vegetarian meal, Li Tong also eats with relish, while eating, while observing the surroundings, this is already the second day, why don't they do it yet, when thinking about it, Li Tong saw a shadow on the opposite palace wall that seemed to fly past, and it disappeared in a flash, Li Tong thought that he was dazzled for a moment, and then, he saw the nearby imperial city guards quietly retreating from the two teams.

Li Tong pinched the chopsticks, leaned back slightly, and the maid standing behind him immediately stepped forward when he saw this.

"What do you command, Madame?"

"I'm going to see if the red clothes are back?"

"Yes."

The maid quickly retreated, Li Tong sat down again, she rolled up her sleeves, took a sip of hot tea, and watched everyone's expressions with a pair of eyes, trying to find something out of them.

It's so calm and unsettling.

After a while, the maid came back, knelt carefully behind Li Tong, and handed a note from the palm of her hand.

"Madam, when the slave came back, I met the big palace maid beside the queen's mother."

Li Tong was shocked, waved his hand to let the maid retreat, and spread out the note under the table, with not much content on it, only one line of words: Stay in the palace at night.

Li Tong remained silent and tucked the note into her sleeve, she winked at Bai Li Ye who was looking up opposite, Bai Li Ye quickly received a look, but she didn't understand what it meant, she only nodded.

Although he didn't know the reason and still had concerns in his heart, Li Tong still withdrew before the end of the dinner, and the palace maid beside the queen waited outside early in the morning, and when she saw Li Tong coming out, she immediately stepped forward to take people away.

Seeing Li Tong leave the table early, although Bai Li Ye was worried, thinking of the gesture she had just winked at him, he understood that there must be a reason, plus there was no less than a team of secret guards arranged by her side, and it was in the palace where the arrangements were complete, Bai Li Ye was not so worried.

Either tonight or tomorrow, the dust will settle.

His stone, sharpened to this day, should also be sharpened until the knife is bright.

Bai Li Ye looked at the teacup in front of him and turned his head, and it just so happened that Li Xiang, who was sitting beside him, also turned his head, and the two looked at each other and smiled, and both took a sip of hot tea.

Tacit.

The queen was not in Luanfeng Palace, but in a remote palace wall, and before Li Tong could salute, she heard the queen say quietly: "After the death, what does Madame want?" ”

Li Tong was slightly stunned, the matter has not been done yet, this is going to be rewarded?

But looking at the queen's expression, why is it so wrong?

But since everyone said so, Li Tong pressed down the doubts in his heart and only said: "I want the general to leave Yicheng alive." ”

The queen's eyes flashed: "Besides? ”

"That's all." Li Tong resolutely.

The queen observed Li Tong's emotions and found that she did not waver at all, so she responded, and when she turned her head to leave, she paused again, and turned back to ask her: "When you married him, he was the most unapproachable person in Yicheng, why are you still willing to help him?" ”

"He's worth it." Li Tong curled the corners of his lips, not intending to explain the deeper reason.

The queen lowered her neck and smiled softly: "Their uncle and nephew are actually very similar. ”

Li Tong tilted her head and didn't understand what it meant, she really didn't know much about the emperor, but if you want to say that it looks like it, just from the facial features, it is indeed a little, but in terms of personality, it is ......

The little emperor is so young that he doesn't dare to get bloody.

"The general is an excellent whetstone, and Xiangye won this game of chess." The queen said indistinct words, and even bowed slightly towards Li Tong, so frightened that Li Tong couldn't help but take a step back.
