Chapter 30: No Trace
This question, a little tranquility, has not been answered.
She looked at her in her dream, with big eyes open, and looked at Emperor Jing with trust and a smile with all her heart.
After hearing her question, the expression of the father in the dream was obviously stunned for a moment, and then a trace of forbearance and helplessness flashed. He seemed to want to say something, but he didn't say anything.
In the end, under her questioning, the father opened his mouth.
This is the story of the love between the father and her mother, the gentle and virtuous woman.
She saw her father gently pat her head, as if she was reminiscing about something, and sighed leisurely, "Father is not good." If Ling's horse is like his father, then Ling will be very painful. ”
At that time, she didn't understand, for her at that time, her father was good to her and doted on her, and there was really no better man than her father.
It can be said that since she understood the meaning of the colt and the meaning of her husband, her father has always been the benchmark for her to choose her husband.
The results are naturally known.
A faint sigh came into Princess Anning's dream, and then, the scene in the dream was like a storm, and soon all dissipated.
When Princess An Ning woke up, there was still a sense of amazement in her heart that could not be ignored.
She hadn't dreamed of that past in her dream for a long time.
That innocent and happy time was really like a dream, and once I did it, I could never find a trace of it.
Now she has understood what the complexity of her father was back then. However, even if she could see it, it would not help.
It's like the ending of the story that my father didn't finish, and it was destined to become a tragedy that was kept secret but all knew it.
She didn't want to mind or mind in her heart.
However, Emperor Jing is dead, and the person is no longer there. Maybe after she is no longer alive for more than ten years, more than 20 years, or even more than 100 years, all of this will be buried in this long and long flow of time.
Princess An Ning's side came with a faint snoring.
She closed her eyes, eased up, and quickly suppressed this inappropriate emotion in her heart.
She glanced at Apu, who seemed to be tired and asleep because she had taken care of her for a long time, and looked inexplicable, stretched out her finger to trace it on Apu's obedient eyebrows, and then got up softly, without waking Apu at all.
Chun Tao, who was guarding outside, heard the sound of the palace door, so she hurriedly got up and saluted Princess An Ning.
Princess An Ning put her finger to her mouth and "shhhh
Chun Tao bowed his head, and hurriedly took a coat and put it on Princess Anning.
The master and servant walked out of this jade hall.
It's late at night.
But perhaps because the palace was already covered with deep snow, it seemed brighter than day.
Obviously they are all the same white, but Princess An Ning can clearly see the white sails floating in the night, lonely, lonely, fragile, and sentimental.
Under the reflection of the palace lights, they cast shadows on Princess An Ning's face, making Princess An Ning's face dark and uncertain.
Chun Tao, who was following Princess An Ning, took the medicine bowl from the little palace maid and respectfully handed it to Princess An Ning.
"Your Highness, it's time for you to drink the medicine."
Princess An Ning picked up the medicine bowl, drank it all in one gulp, watched the already vegetarian people running around, and asked expressionlessly, "Has the funeral officer confirmed?" ”
Chun Tao took the medicine bowl and handed it to the little palace maid for her to take away, then bowed slightly and replied: "If you go back to Your Highness, the new emperor has agreed with Dazai and Lord Taifu to designate Lord Shangshu Guo of the ancestral hall as the funeral official. ”
Princess An Ning nodded after hearing this, and expressed her approval of Lord Guo's appointment as a funeral official.
"Lord Guo has served as the secretary of the ancestral hall for many years, and he is very familiar with the ceremonial books of the palace and the big and small sacrifices, and it is very suitable for him to be the funeral official. Except for the funeral officer, the rest of the arrangements have fallen? ”
Chun Tao replied: "The death knell has sounded, the merchants and people in the city have replaced the red lanterns, and the white sails have been hung at the door, and they are all dressed in plain clothes and spontaneously kneeling in front of their own houses to see off the emperor at night; The time for worship, mourning, burial and entering the mausoleum has been set, and the concubines on the other side of the imperial mausoleum have all gone.
Although the new emperor has ascended the throne, because he has not yet worshiped the heavens and ancestors, Dazai, Taifu and the funeral officials unanimously decided to let the new emperor worship the heavens and ancestors in front of the emperor's coffin in accordance with the original rules, and officially become the emperor.
The palace guards during the funeral and the maintenance of stability in the city were also decided in the deliberations of the three of them, including the Taiwei, the Great Sima and the Tiger Ben Zhonglang.
As for the rebellion of King Qin and King Xin and the loss of honor in front of Princess Ankang, they will also be put aside for the time being, and a verdict will be made after the funeral. ”
Princess An Ning listened quietly and did not say a word the whole time. After Chun Tao finished speaking, Princess An Ning chuckled, as if relieved and as if self-deprecating, and said, "They have done so well, which really makes the palace a little gratified." ”
Chun Tao cautiously glanced at Princess An Ning's face, and said tentatively: "Forgive the slave maid, Your Highness, you should take this opportunity to rest for a while." At the moment, there really shouldn't be a big deal. Besides, you fainted this time, because you were too tired. ”
Princess An Ning looked at the figure of Chang Shi who was gradually walking towards this side in the distance, and became more and more clear, and said to Chun Tao with a chuckle: "In this whirlpool of power struggle, no one can be alone and free to do as he pleases. Once you are busy, there is no time to rest.
If you really want to rest one day, then it means that you are out.
Hongu is unwilling to be out, and no one can let Hongu out. Besides, isn't there something coming for it right now? ”
Although the feet of the waiter are anxious, the face is still stable.
After he respectfully bowed to Princess An Ning, he said to Princess An Ning: "Slave and maid, see Her Royal Highness Princess An Ning, Your Highness is a thousand years old. Hearing that His Highness woke up, the old slave specially came to ask His Highness to go to the Xuanzheng Hall to discuss matters. ”
"Huh." Princess An Ning chuckled, "It's really not peaceful. The title of this palace, at this time, it's time to change. ”
Nakatsune lowered his head slightly, stood respectfully to the side, and did not say a word.
Princess An Ning put on her plain robe, and her face returned to her usual careless but cold and charming expression.
She let Chun Tao stay where she was to serve Ah Pu, and she followed the Zhongchang attendant to the Xuanzheng Palace.
If the expectation is good, she was in such a hurry to call her to the Xuanzheng Hall not long after she woke up, just for the sake of King Han, who should have returned to the palace long ago but has not returned yet.
