Inside and outside Miyagi, it is plain white.

According to Yuanhong's edict, after the funeral, all the concubines in the palace will be dismissed, and they can go home and remarry.

In the mourning hall, He Mo knelt in front of him.

The maid Wang walked lightly to the front, knelt beside He, and said carefully: "Queen, you have been kneeling for a day, and you don't eat tea and rice, how can you eat your phoenix body..."

Seeing that He was silent, Wang became more and more worried, but he was helpless. Just as he was hesitating, he saw the three treasures of the great eunuch enter. Wang Shi was like a person who had fallen into the water and got driftwood, so he hurriedly got up and approached, and whispered to Sanbao: "Eunuch, please persuade the queen quickly..."

San Bao nodded and waved his hand to signal Wang Shi to go out.

Kneeling on the ground, Sanbao first bowed to the emperor's coffin, and then saluted He, saying: "Queen, I know that your heart is sad, but Your Majesty has gone, you are pregnant with a dragon fetus, it is for the dragon fetus, and you should take care of yourself!" ”

In the past few days since returning to the palace, although Sanbao and He have met several times, they are not allowed to talk close to the palace because of the many kings and grandsons in the mourning hall. Today, after the seven-day period, all the orphans and mourners no longer need to keep watch in the mourning hall to have the opportunity to speak.

Seeing that He was still silent, Sanbao persuaded again: "Queen, the most reassuring thing before Your Majesty leaves is the Queen, if the Queen insists on this, how can Your Majesty be blind to the spirit of the sky..."

With a light sigh in his heart, Sanbao continued: "Queen, don't bend yourself, Your Majesty will be funeral tomorrow, if you have anything to say, let Your Majesty know..."

Hearing the words of the Three Treasures, He could no longer restrain himself, and a "Yuan Lang" was already in tears.

Looking at the coffin in front of him, He whispered: "Yuanlang, how can you leave the concubine alone?" How can you not let your concubine see you for the last time? Yuanlang..."

Sanbao also shed tears, wiped his tears with his sleeve, and Sanbao said: "Queen, how can Your Majesty leave the queen?" When His Majesty marched, he took the Luo Ying given by the queen back then, and when the dragon returned to the sky, he also held Luo Ying in his hand... Your Majesty is not unwilling to see the queen for the last time, but His Majesty knows that the queen's birth is imminent, and if the carriage and horses are tired, I am afraid that the queen and the dragon fetus will be injured... Queen, Your Majesty's last wish is to ask the queen to preserve the phoenix body and give birth safely! ”

Hearing the words of the Three Treasures, He's liver and intestines were broken. With tears on his face, He muttered, "Yuan Lang... If I lose you, I will live forever, what does it mean for me? ”

Seeing that He was so sad, Sanbao said Yuan Hong's words before leaving: "Your Majesty told the queen that if there is an afterlife, Your Majesty is willing to be an ordinary couple with the queen, hidden in the mountains and forests, and do not ask about worldly affairs... Queen, Your Majesty treats you with affection, the Queen is not for herself, but also for Your Majesty, for the princess and the dragon fetus to protect the phoenix body..."

Before Sanbao could speak, Princess Yuanyu of Pengcheng rushed into the house angrily: "It's all because of you, a demon woman!" Since you entered the palace, the harem has not been clean for a day. It was you, who gave birth to the evil star of the heart, not only killed the noble concubine, Feng Taishi, Feng Ji, but now even the imperial brother was killed by your mother and daughter! ”

San Bao hurriedly dissuaded: "Princess, you must not be so rude to the queen..."

Yuan Yu waved his hand and slapped the three treasures, and said, "When will it be your turn to advise me!" ”

For many years, Sanbao has been close to Yuan Hong as his confidant, that is, the prince and noble, and the harem concubines have also treated him with three points of courtesy. At this time, Yuan Yu made such a move, how could Sanbao not know that he was using himself to deter the queen. Only Sanbao is loyal to Yuanhong, and no one is allowed to treat the queen disrespectfully, and he bows his head in pain, Sanbao said: "The slave does not dare, only in His Majesty's mourning hall, the princess cannot be allowed to shout, and I hope that the princess will respect herself!" ”

How could Yuan Yu be afraid of the Three Treasures, snorted coldly, and reprimanded: "Presumptuous! You are but a cheap slave, who has given you the courage to speak to me like this! I am a compatriot with the royal brother, only I am the closest to the imperial brother in this world, and now that the imperial brother has died, I should investigate the reason..."

Stretching out his hand to clapped his hands, several attendants rushed inside from outside the mourning hall. Yuan Yu pointed to the three treasures and said: "From today onwards, Wu Ge will remove you from the post of eunuch and hand it over to the court lieutenant for disposal!" Seeing that the faces of those servants were timid, Yuan Yu said angrily: "My Majesty and I are both the first emperor, and now that Your Majesty has died, I should treat him to take care of the prince and take care of the harem..."

Sanbao was not afraid, and said bluntly: "Although the princess is the same mother as Your Majesty, the princess has already married a woman, but Your Majesty is sympathetic to the princess's widowhood, so he ordered the princess to return to the palace to live." Although His Majesty is the dragon and the royal guest, the queen is here, and the former harem should be respected by the queen. ”

The words of the three treasures made Yuan Yu feel like he had been slapped by someone. Yuan Yu instantly jumped like thunder, and was about to raise his hand to slap the three treasures again, when he saw He get up and walk closer.

He's face was calm, and his voice was slight but sonorous: "Since the princess is the same mother as His Majesty, she should know that the elders and the young are orderly, and there is a difference between respect and inferiority. I am the queen of the temple that His Majesty announced, and the princess can ignore me, but she must not respect the ancestral system of the palace. I dare to ask the princess, what is wrong with the words of the eunuch? ”

He has always been gentle and humble, and there is no quarrel with the world, and Yuan Yu has never put it in his eyes. However, Fang Caihe's words made Yuan Yu unexpected. Facing this weak woman, Yuan Yu suddenly trembled in his heart for some reason, just like Yu Yuanhong that day.

Yuan Yu hated to push this woman down, but for some reason, when he saw He Fangcai's dignified eyes, he felt trembling.

Glaring at Sanbao fiercely, Yuan Yu flicked his sleeves and left.

The emperor died, and the whole country mourned, and the dynasty was stopped for ten days as a mourning. In the Taiji Palace, Yuan Ke and several auxiliary ministers were all dressed in Su.

When Emperor Daxing comes out of the funeral tomorrow, the crown prince Yuan Ke will ascend the throne and succeed to the throne. Everyone discussed the funeral matters, and they discussed the new emperor's accession to the throne.

Rencheng Wang Yuancheng, as the head of the sect and the head of the six auxiliaries, was originally in charge of the business, only these days of hard work, plus he was already sick, and now he is sick in bed and cannot enter the palace to discuss matters.

Among the remaining five auxiliary ministers, Yuan Xi was respected, and he opened his mouth first: "When the new emperor ascends the throne, he will change the yuan, and he should first draw up the era name." ”

Everyone echoed in unison, and when they saw that Yuan Ke agreed, they discussed with each other, and then decided that after the new emperor ascended the throne, he would change Yuan Jingming.

The new emperor has not yet married, and now he should keep filial piety for three years, and the queen's matter can be ignored for the time being. Everything was agreed, and only the matter of choosing a date for the queen mother's honorific title remained.

Shang Shu ordered Wang Su to say: "The minister heard that the queen's birth is imminent, and when the new emperor ascends the throne, the queen will be the queen mother." If the Queen Mother gives birth before she gives birth, the Queen Mother will be happy physically and mentally and can give birth safely. ”

"You can't let that demon woman be the queen mother!" I don't know when, Yuan Yu has entered the Taiji Palace.

Hearing Yuan Yu's words, the ministers saw that Yuan Ke was still calling the imperial aunt, and they did not have half a displeasure, although they were suspicious, they did not dare to be half lazy, and they all got up to greet each other.

Yuan Yu sat down at the table, and then said: "The queen's virtue is at a loss, and the woman's morality is at a loss, so she can't be respected as the queen mother!" ”

Yuan Xi knew in his heart, but pretended not to know: "Sixth sister, slandering the queen is an unforgivable crime, you must not talk nonsense!" ”

Yuan Yu said: "Second brother, I am the emperor's brother and sister, how can I slander the queen for no reason?" I just don't want the harem of the Great Wei to fall into the hands of this demon woman, and let it harm the prince in the future! ”

Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Yuan Yu told everyone that He had been the wife of Luozhou Mu Gao Yong. After that, Yuan Yu slandered again: "During the imperial brother's personal expedition, the queen did not abide by the woman's way, but rekindled the old relationship with Gao Hui and exchanged letters..."

Wang Suhu said suspiciously: "Eldest princess, everyone knows that Your Majesty and the queen are in love, and the queen is pregnant, why do you want to rekindle the old relationship with that Gao Hui?" ”

When Yuan Yu heard this, he looked displeased, and said, "How can Shang Shuling not believe it?" I have obtained the secret report, and I have obtained all the stolen goods, how can it be an empty accusation! ”

Guangyang Wang Yuanjia said: "Since the eldest princess has been stolen, then she can pass on human and material evidence to interrogate." ”

Yuan Yu said: "How can I allow anyone to tarnish Your Majesty's wisdom? I have put the staff of wisdom to death..."

Before Yuan Yu could speak, Song Ben, the secretary of the ministry, questioned: "Since there is no proof of death, how can the princess convince the ministers?" ”

Seeing that Yuan Yu was speechless for a while, Yuan Xi said: "Lonely watching the sixth sister grow up since childhood, the sixth sister is a big horse golden knife, and she has never lied with anyone. Fang Cai's words of the sixth sister, Lone is convinced! ”

After all, the compatriots are in the same spirit, and when Yuanxiang, the king of Beihai, heard Yuanxi's words, he immediately said: "The sixth sister and the queen have no grievances and no hatred, why do you need to do slanderous things?" Lone is like the second elder brother, and he believes in the words of the sixth elder sister. ”

Seeing that everyone was deadlocked, Yuan Ke locked his eyebrows and said sullenly: "The matter of the queen's proposed honorific title is not discussed for the time being, and tomorrow we must mourn for Aya, and you and the others will return to the house as soon as possible." ”

Hearing Yuanke's words, everyone had to get up and leave.

Yuan Ke returned to the prince's mansion with his front foot, and Yuan Xi, Yuan Yu and Gao Zhao followed with their hind feet.

The people sat down at one table.

Gao Zhao opened his mouth first: "I heard that the prince wants to respect the queen as the queen mother, if this is the case, then the prince will never be able to take the noble concubine as his mother!" ”

Seeing that Yuan Ke was silent, Yuan Yu said: "The queen's mother and daughter are evil stars, if the prince respects her as the queen mother, I am afraid that my Great Wei will be in danger!" ”

Yuan Xi also said: "Lone Ben doesn't believe in the starry theory, but now His Majesty has died for no reason, plus the previous piles, Lone has to believe it." ”

Yuan Ke was in a dilemma, and he still hesitated.

Seeing this, Yuan Yu said again: "The queen is about to give birth, if she gives birth to a boy, she will be the emperor's brother and sister-in-law, and at that time..."

Yuan Yu wanted to indulge in the past, and no longer spoke. Yuan Ke is young in the end, and when he heard Yuan Yu say this, he opened his mouth: "What does my aunt mean, will my mother set up another son-in-law?" ”

Yuan Yu was proud, bowed his head slightly, and said: "Prince, if you serve the queen as the queen mother, then the world will respect her, and she will set up whoever she wants, even if you ascend the throne and succeed to the throne, what can you do?" ”

Seeing that Yuan Ke's face had sunk, Gao Zhao hurriedly took over and said, "Prince, if you are not the queen, how can the queen treat you sincerely?" ”

The words of the two of them made Yuan Ke suddenly remember that his father sent him and Liang Shiqing away before his death, leaving only Yuan Xian and Sanbao in front of the palace. Yuan Ke was worried at that time, because Yu Linwei was escorting him, although he was not allowed to listen carefully, he was taking advantage of the excuse to slow down and pay attention to the sound in the car.

Vaguely, Yuan Ke heard few numbers such as the queen and the edict. At this time, hearing Yuan Yu's words, Yuan Ke suddenly lost his color: "Aya, Aya, Aya's seems to have left an edict for the queen..."

Yuan Ke then told everyone about the emperor's death that day. After Yuan Ke finished speaking, everyone at the banquet changed their faces.

Yuan Yu settled his mind and said: "If the queen really has this edict, when she gives birth to a son-in-law, the crown prince will not be able to protect your throne!" Looking at everyone, Yuan Yu said again: "Rather than being a knife and me being a fish in the future, it is better to strike first." ”

Gao Zhao thought that if he came to the world, he would be able to rise to the top. At this time, Gao Zhaozi couldn't bear it: "Prince, you should make a decision as soon as possible to avoid future troubles!" ”

Yuan Xi on the side also said: "The son and the mother are not the blessing of the family and the country!" The prince is not for himself, but also for the long-term of the Great Wei River! ”

The three of them talked back and forth, and Yuan Ke was confused for a while. After a long cup of tea, Yuan Ke spoke: "When the Aya funeral is done tomorrow, I will... Remove the dragon fetus from the mother's womb! ”

In the Yonghe Palace, He was dressed in a vegetarian body, holding the jade pendant given by Yuan Hong when he was in love, standing quietly in front of the window.

Ji Xiang walked to the front and whispered: "Queen, Your Majesty is in a big funeral today, you haven't eaten a drop of water, the imperial doctor ordered the slave to cook longan lotus seed soup for you, and the king of Xianyang and the king of Beihai came to talk to you, and the slave didn't dare to go in and disturb." Queen, for the sake of the dragon fetus in your womb, please drink a bowl quickly. ”

He looked dazed, only weeping silently. Jixiang was nearly half a step forward, and when he saw that He's face was bloodless, he was taken aback, and said, "Queen, where are you unwell?" The slave will go to announce the imperial doctor's order..."

After that, auspiciousness wanted to go outside the temple. He called on auspiciousness and said softly: "I don't have to do anything... Have Ying'er and Shu'er fallen asleep? ”

Ji Xiang nodded and said, "The two princesses cried for Your Majesty during the day, maybe they were tired and went to bed early. ”

He said: "Ying'er likes to eat bean cakes, but she doesn't like honey in the bean paste, don't add more honey when you make bean cakes for her in the future..."

Ji Xiang was puzzled: "The pastries eaten by Princess Changle have always been made by the queen herself, how can she be instructed by the slave today?" ”

He smiled sadly and said, "I am about to give birth, and I will entrust it to you... Shu'er's body is warm, you must not give her anything warm. ”

"And Ke'er... In order to protect Shu'er that day, he fell into the wind, and he must not work too hard..."

Without waiting for Jixiang to speak, He said again: "Your Majesty likes to hear me stroking the qin and singing, and you will take the green qi and give it to me." ”

Although Jixiang Juehe had different words and deeds tonight, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly took the green Qiqin and offered it to He.

"There are vines and grass in the wild, and there is no dew. There is a beautiful person, clear and graceful. Encounters and encounters are suitable for my wishes. There are vines and grasses in the wild, and there is no dew. There is a beautiful person, just like Qingyang. Encounter and meet, and meet with the son. ”

Before his death, the first emperor often said that this song was sung by himself and He, just as the two of them met on a small hillside. The auspicious sound of He's song gradually weakened, and before he got closer, he saw a mouthful of blood spurting out of He's mouth.

Jixiang screamed, and the Wang family outside the hall heard the sound, but saw that He had fallen on the piano case.

The two of them hurriedly walked, and called the palace maids outside the palace to enter, and carried He to the bed together.

The one who came with the imperial physician ordered Liang Shiqing was Wang Yuanxian of Pengcheng. Seeing this scene, Yuan Xian knelt on the ground and said, "Queen, the minister is late..."

He opened his eyes slightly, and his anger was like a gossamer: "When the kings come together, they are ordered by the new emperor... Since Ke'er's wish, I have fulfilled him... I have nothing more to ask for... I only wish I could sleep in the same cave with Your Majesty..."

Yuan Xun cried: "Empress, Your Majesty has an edict to the ministers, if the new emperor is not filial, the new emperor will be deposed, and the dragon fetus in the queen's womb will be the emperor... The minister has the great trust of His Majesty, and the minister deserves death! ”

He suddenly smiled: "Providence is so... I would have wanted to go with Your Majesty, but if... If it weren't for the dragon womb in my womb, how could I live alone... Now good... Okay, I can go find... Looking for Your Majesty..."

He closed his eyes slightly, tears streaming down his face.
