Chapter 422, the death of the middle palace
"I don't know what kind of yin owl I hurt this year, the concubine and the concubine died one after another, and now I can't see the queen ......" The Queen Mother Wu Yashi frowned, and her expression was very unhappy. During these days, the palace has not stopped, the concubines, concubines, and queens, all of them are quite strange, but the emperor is silent, and he refuses to tell the mourning family anything, only saying that he is sick, hum! Although the mourning family is old, it has not yet reached the point of old dizziness!
Yao Jiaxin hurriedly sighed, revealing compassion, "What the Queen Mother said is very true, the concubine is thinking, maybe I should ask the lama to do a few more rituals to get rid of the yin owl, maybe the queen's condition can improve." ”
The Queen Mother snorted in her heart, the queen didn't even drink the medicine, how could she get better? The queen is now bent on dying, but she is afraid that she has done something that the emperor cannot tolerate, so she will apologize for her guilt with death, so as not to affect her mother.
Yin Zhen accompanied Yao Jiaxin to greet the Queen Mother today, and was sitting on the chair next to him with a straight face at the moment, he couldn't see the slightest emotion on his face, and his tone was cold and indifferent: "It's enough for the concubine to have this intention, birth, old age, sickness and death are inevitable." ”
At this time, Mama Rui, who was beside the Queen Mother, walked in quickly, and said with a sad face: "The Queen Mother, the middle palace is gone!" ”
Yao Jiaxin sweated, and the queen died quite quickly! I probably heard that Concubine Dun died, and my heart was happy, so I let go?
Although she was very disgusted with this daughter-in-law, the Queen Mother still recited the sentence "Amitabha", "How come they are all gone?" ”
Mama Rui said: "Please mourn the Queen Mother, the queen mother has been sick for many years, life and death, I heard that the queen mother's appearance is very peaceful." ”
The queen died peacefully...... Sure enough, I knew that Nian's was hanging.
Yao Jiaxin hurriedly got up and said, bowing to His Majesty the Fourth Master and the Queen Mother, "The middle palace has passed away, and the concubine should go to mourn as a concubine, and the concubine will retire first." ”
The Queen Mother waved her hand: "Go and get busy, this middle palace funeral is no better than the funeral of the two concubines, I'm afraid you will be busy." ”
But isn't it, the queen is dead, it's a national funeral!
Yin Zhen said suddenly: "Hongxing and Hongyue are still young, so there is no need to mourn." ”
Yao Jia was secretly happy, the relationship was good, but mourning was a hard job, that is, she ran to the queen's spirit, kneeling and crying, and she had to toss for seven days!
"Thank you, Your Majesty, the concubine will go first."
Yao Jiaxin left the Tranquility Palace, but did not go straight to the moon to Kaiyun, but first rushed back to Bitong Academy, changed into the pure white funeral dress that had been prepared, took off the red lip makeup, and then hurried to the funeral.
She came a little late, the concubines and concubines of the palace had already arrived, according to the level of position, kneeling in front of the queen's coffin, sobbing one by one, whimpering in the Kaiyun Hall of the Broken Moon, plus the white flags, the white building danced lightly, a gloomy atmosphere permeated, there was a feeling of going to the underworld.
complained in her heart, Yao Jiaxin had already gone to the front and knelt on the futon.
Yao Jiaxin didn't cry in a hurry, but glanced back at the fourth concubine behind her and asked, "When did the queen mother?" ”
Concubine Yu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said sadly: "It was this morning, the queen's face was peaceful when she left, please mourn the concubine." ”
Yao Jiaxin couldn't help but complain again in her heart: It looks really peaceful......
Yao Jiaxin asked again: "Have several elder brothers arrived?" ”
Concubine Qi hurriedly replied: "The concubine has already called someone to notify the upper study, and she must be able to come soon." Saying that, Concubine Qi said suspiciously: "The eighth elder brother and the ninth elder brother have not yet entered the school, why didn't they come with the concubine?" ”
Yao Jiaxin said lightly: "The palace is at the queen mother's place, and the emperor is also there, and when I heard that the queen died, the emperor spoke on the spot, and the eighth elder brother and the ninth elder brother are young and can be exempted from mourning." ”
As soon as she heard what the emperor meant, Concubine Qi immediately became dumbfounded.
Concubine Ning, who was kneeling beside Concubine Qi, couldn't help but say: "Concubine Niangniang, the seventh elder brother of the concubine is also young and frail, can you also be exempted from this mourning gift?" ”
At this moment, the seventh elder brother knelt beside Concubine Ning, and the little person knelt in a ball, wearing snow-white mourning clothes, and his eyes were red, but he didn't hear the crying, afraid that something was wiped in his eyes.
In fact, which of the concubines present really shed tears? Nine times out of ten, they were made on handkerchiefs or sleeves.
Yao Jiaxin sighed, "This palace can't be the master of this matter, so I can only go back and ask the emperor for instructions." ”
Concubine Ning hurriedly said, "Thank you, Concubine Niangniang." ”
At this time, several princes and elder brothers who were enrolled also rushed together, all dressed in linen and filial piety, as if they had died of their own mother.
The futons of the princes were lined up behind the four concubines, kneeling in a row, from left to right, they were Concubine Qi's third elder brother Hongyun, fourth elder brother Hongshi, Concubine Yu's fifth elder brother Hongday, and Yao Jiaxin's sixth elder brother Hong Xiaoxu. - The seventh elder brother knelt with Concubine Ning because he was young.
The fourth princess Hongli was also young, and she knelt in an inconspicuous corner with Xi Chang, crying twice at will.
Then came the outer wife - the concubine is in the inner palace, so it is called the inner woman, and the outer woman is the princess who has been married, the fortune of each family, the noble daughter of the clan, and the duchess of the auxiliary country who does not enter the eight points must enter the palace to mourn. According to the level of status, the position arranged is also different, if the status is low, you can only go to the outside of the temple to kneel and cry.
Those who can enter the temple to cry and mourn are all quite statused, the wind does not blow, the rain does not fall, and there are soft futons to cushion, and the knees can suffer less.
The princes, Baylor, and Beizi of the close branches of the clan also had to mourn, but they could not go to the queen's bedroom to mourn, but set up a spiritual seat in a temple in the previous dynasty.
The queen is different, there are two places to cry and mourn.
Yao Jiaxin looked coldly at the fact that the person was almost here, so she took out the handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped it on her eyes, and suddenly the spicy stimulation made her eyes red, and tears flowed down.
Lying in a trough, this ginger juice is a little too much!
Everyone was sobbing quietly, so the temple was not too noisy.
In the midst of such a sobbing, a howl suddenly came out, "Queen Mother! Why did you just go?! You're in the prime of life! Why is it gone in a blink of an eye! ”
Yao Jiaxin looked back, the woman looked like she was only in her early thirties, and her appearance was quite charming, and she was crying a lot at the moment, looking very sad.
"Who is this?" Yao Jiaxin asked in a low voice.
Concubine Yu replied in a low voice: "Duchess Chengen of the Wulanala family, Jue Luo." ”
Yao Jiaxin suddenly realized, it turned out to be the queen's brother and daughter-in-law! This Jue Luo is a red belt, and she can be regarded as a noble daughter of the clan, and she is married to the queen's younger brother, and she is the Duchess of Chengen, which can be said to have enjoyed all the honor.
But now the biggest backer of the Ulanala family, the queen.
Although the mother family of the dead queen is still the Chengen family, it is not as good as in the past after all. That's why Jue Luo is so sad and sad.
Yao Jiaxin said lightly: "Don't worry about her." "If you love to cry, cry.
Yao Jiaxin didn't expect that she didn't plan to care, but Luo Che was kicking his nose more and more.
The women in the hall were all sobbing quietly, but Jue Luo's crying was grabbing the ground, like a dead mother, and he howled hoarsely, "Queen Mother!" You died so unjustly! ”
