Feng Yunzheng died, the whole country entered the period of filial piety, Empress Dowager Shi was too sad, lingering on the sickbed, and followed after Feng Yunzheng was buried in the imperial mausoleum.

After the emperor died, the queen mother also died, and the capital was silent for a while, except for a few who knew the truth of the matter, they all thought that the queen mother Shi was the reason for being too sad.

After Empress Dowager Shi entered the imperial mausoleum, it was also the end of February.

"Hey, the Queen Mother is really an admirable person, she went, and the palace was really sad." Empress Zhou seemed to be five years older, and the expression on her face was full of sorrow.

"Niangniang, think about the eldest prince." Xinping whispered relief.

"Yes, this palace is not alone, and Chi'er." Empress Zhou nodded, "Okay, the palace is going to sleep, and there are still a lot of things waiting for the palace to do." ”

On the first day of March, Feng Yuyang ascended the throne, and Empress Zhou became the Empress Dowager of Zhou, and was named Empress Dowager Xiaoren; Concubine Xian was also honored as the Empress Dowager because of her meritorious work in giving birth to a child, and was awarded the title of Empress Dowager of Xiaoci.

All the harem concubines of Feng Yunzheng who gave birth to children were all crowned concubines, and those who did not give birth to heirs and still planned to stay in the harem were also honored as concubines.

However, most of the concubines chose to leave the palace.

Feng Yunzheng went quickly, there was no arrangement for the harem, it was arranged by the Empress Dowager Shi herself before she went, and the harem concubines followed their hearts whether they went or stayed, which was also Feng Yunzheng's merit, and won the unanimous praise of the former dynasty and the harem.

The emperor ascended the throne, and the next things were put on the agenda, and the princes were awarded the title of prince and rewarded the fief, but the first emperor just went, and he had to keep filial piety, and the new emperor ascended the throne not long after, and set the rules, and when he reached the age of thirty, the princes could go to the fief.

This is also to prevent the princes from taking control of the power after going to the fiefdom, accumulating their own people and wealth, just after the New Year, Feng Yuchi is only twenty-two, eight years later, Feng Yuyang's throne is also firmly seated.

"Your Majesty is good." Empress Zhou, who now lives in Renshou Palace, smiled after hearing this new system, "Hey, emperors have always been ruthless, and they really responded to that sentence." ”

"Niangniang, you should also be happy, otherwise Prince Chi will go to Shandong, and you won't be able to see it as soon as you want." Aunt Xinping said with a smile, "When Prince Chi is thirty, the mother will hold her grandson and granddaughter." ”

"That's right." Empress Dowager Zhou nodded, "Tomorrow I will pass on the queen mother's decree, hey, they are all people who worry about their children." ”

"In fact, Prince Rui is still young, even if he keeps filial piety for three years and then gets married, it is just over twenty, the fifth lady of the British Mansion is four years younger than Prince Rui, and it is just right to marry at that age, why did you say that the Queen Mother didn't let Prince Rui keep filial piety for three years, and even the days of filial piety for children and grandchildren have been shortened." Aunt Xinping wondered.

"You don't know when Prince Rui got married?" Empress Dowager Zhou smiled, "I've been waiting for so many years, if you have to wait a few more years, do you think the queen mother can not feel distressed, the queen mother loves Prince Rui very much." ”

"The etiquette law can't be ignored, but if it's a Yi will, it can't be disrespected, it must be based on the Yi will, not to mention that you have to treat the body of Rui Wangye, for the sake of the heirs, there is no virtuous helper in the house who takes care of people, where can you rest assured." Empress Dowager Zhou replied.

"The queen mother also took a lot of painstaking work, you look at how many people have praised it now because of the placement of the first emperor's concubines, at this time, the queen mother just loves her son, and she has a short time of filial piety, what do you say can be a big deal, not to mention that the queen mother has gone, you say there will be people who raise objections?"

"That's what the mother said." Aunt Xinping replied in a low voice.

"There is still a big gap between the mourning family and the queen mother." Empress Dowager Zhou self-examined, "After all, in the Empress Dowager's decree, Prince Rui is just one of them, and there is also love for his grandchildren, after all, the first emperor has gone, and now it is not just about keeping a filial piety, the queen mother really thinks far-reaching, takes everything into account, and bears it all herself." ”

"Tomorrow's will, even if there are complaints and dissatisfaction, it is also for the queen mother, not for the children and grandchildren who are preferential, after all, it is filial piety to follow the wishes of the ancestors."

On March 15, the morning court, the Empress Dowager Zhou came for the first time, brought the edict of the Empress Dowager, let the palace people personally read, when the filial piety officials mourning shortened to 100 days, relatives shortened to one year, the court was in an uproar.

The Empress Dowager Zhou passed the anger with Feng Yuyang in advance, and with the decree of the Empress Dowager, he took this as a national rule as the new emperor, and took advantage of the trend and set the hearts of the people.

The change of the court means the birth of a new generation of royal relatives and relatives, and there are also individual families that are gradually declining, but generally big families can exist safely in the succession.

As long as the hereditary noble family follows the changes of the times, it will still stand.

Spring goes to winter, after a few seasons, the once lively and cheerful little girl has grown into a fair lady, and she has reached the age of Jilu.

The young man who loves to climb over the wall also stands, and it is time to reach the age of a weak crown when he turns over the New Year, but although he is older, his temperament has not changed much.

"Qinghe." Feng Yunmo visited Hua Qinghe's boudoir at night, and sent the hairpin made by himself to be used for tomorrow's ceremony.

The marriage of the two has been decided, and it will be four or five months before the end of the month.

Hua Qinghe's ceremony was very grand, almost all the ladies of the big families in the capital came with the girls, and several princesses of the prince's family also came, after all, Hua Qinghe was their future aunt, and her generation was there.

In the palace, Empress Dowager Zhou and Empress Yi also gave gifts.

Hua Qinghe is the protagonist, her aunt Zhou Weiya is the guest, her friend Shi Xiaoxin is the praiser, and many of her classmates from Xiushan Girls' School also came to congratulate.

Hua Qinghe at the end of July, and before the ceremony, she had already completed her studies, and she learned from Xiushan Girl, and in the next few months, she would have to embroider wedding dresses with all her heart, and she couldn't go out much.

The Luo family's Fuqing sake shop has a booming business, and has already opened a branch in the capital, and is thinking about opening a branch in Fucheng, which is close to the capital, to make the business bigger.

Today, Hua Qinghe and Lu, all the Luo family members in the capital came, and Luo Yougen and Luo Jiahe also found someone to send gifts back early.

The hairpin of the ceremony is made by Feng Yunmo, the prince of Rui, and the green and transparent lotus hairpin is praised by people.

Hua Qinghe, who was dressed in a goose yellow skirt, completed all the ceremonies under the traction of Rujin.

Today, there are so many big families coming, and the Empress Dowager Shi who went first also has part of the credit, who would have thought that the Empress Dowager Shi would give her personal palace person Rujin to Hua Qinghe, and it stands to reason that she will also give her son Feng Yunmo, but it is directly given to her future daughter-in-law.

This is an act of giving Hua Qinghe a face and supporting his waist, although Empress Dowager Shi has gone, Yu Wei and Yu Enke are still there.
