The matter of Concubine De replacing the crown princess as the queen mother is not a secret matter, and through the small officials under the Ministry of Rites, the news soon spread quickly. (8 & 0 & Book & House et book more, more complete books)
When the crown princess Wu heard this will, she didn't care much, but said with a normal expression: "Obey the will." She has no joy or sorrow, she doesn't care whether she can be a little bit of a queen mother, and she doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with being deprived of this qualification. Only the female official next to her was still angry, and said that there was nothing to show and it was not the reason why it was not the crown princess, etc.
The crown princess Wu had already changed into a burlap filial piety dress, and while listening to the words of the female official, she stroked her armor, looking bored, and finally said lazily: "The prince, you have to make it clear, absurd is absurd, don't go too far during this national funeral!" When the time comes, something will happen, but it's a joke of the Daeyoung royal family! ”
Shangguan Changzhi quickly knew about this, his complexion was not very good-looking, Concubine De was the queen mother, and she would invisibly enhance the status of the second prince, which was not a good thing for him.
finally took advantage of the Chunqiu incident to circle the second child, but he didn't expect that he would catch the fact that the queen mother was seriously ill so soon and regained the attention of his father, and now he has performed this play in Cining Palace, the second prince has been faintly pressed on me and the third child, not to mention that Concubine De replacing the crown princess is not a matter of etiquette! Usually Taichang Temple and the Ministry of Rites are crooked about this kind of thing, but I didn't expect that no one raised objections this time. It seems that the officials of the Ministry of Rites know this situation, and the two princes' mansions have been going too smoothly recently, he thought gloomily, called Li Ke'an and others, and discussed.
Shangguan Yongping lost his temper in the Three Princes' Mansion, and even the white lantern that Chang Shi had just taken out of the treasury shattered him. Looking at the broken white lantern on the ground, his face turned a few times, and finally returned to normal. looked at the trembling servant and maid, did not speak, and walked into the study. Behind him, followed by Xian Maoxin, he had just come to the Three Princes' Mansion, and he saw the mess in a place, and he knew what was going on.
"Your Highness need not worry. Prosperity must decline. The Second Prince's Mansion has been going too smoothly recently, and it will definitely be hated, so we just have to wait. He persuaded that there must still be people from the second prince in the Ministry of Rites. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the second prince to hear the news of the replacement of the crown princess so quickly, and staged the scene of Cining Palace crying.
Although the news of the collapse of the Queen Mother has not yet been officially issued to the world, all the officials in Jingzhao know about this matter, and all the families are preparing for funeral matters, and funeral supplies such as burlap, white lanterns, and white candles have suddenly become extremely popular, and the prices are several times more expensive than usual! Because Shen Yu's family had been prepared for a long time, these supplies were not expensive. She didn't care anymore. However, Shen Hu's and Li and He's two aunts secretly sighed that Shen Yu's housewife was amazing.
The slaves and maids in the sewing room have sewn their filial piety clothes, and now they are waiting for the will of the palace, when to start mourning, when to enter the palace to cry, etc., all of them have to wait for the Ministry of Rites to prepare, but fortunately, the Shen family has no happy events. Therefore, Shen Yu listened attentively to the news.
On May 17, the queen and Concubine De personally gathered for the queen mother and completed the small gathering ceremony at the end of the year.
On May 20, the great retreat, stopped in the main hall of Cining Palace, lasted for seven days, the whole palace was vegetarian, and the edict was issued to the world.
On the 20th day of May, all the people in Jingzhao hung white lanterns and erected white flags in front of their homes, and all of them wore burlap filial piety clothes, and even many people spontaneously knelt down to mourn and cry at the entrances of Shifu Street, Jingtai Street, Xianghe Street, etc., and the whole Jingzhao was filled with a sad atmosphere, and all the people were sad together.
Shen Yu received the order to enter the palace and cry on May 20, and ordered the Jingzhao officials and the wives with orders to enter the palace to cry on May 23, which lasted for three days. The young government supervisor also uniformly distributed filial piety clothes and other things to all officials and wives. After Shen Yu's received the notice, she once again told Shen An's to take care of the affairs of the backyard, and called a few children to tell her, she even stopped the classes of Shen Ning's little girls, and ordered that during the period when she and Shen Zejing entered the palace to cry, the courtyards were closed and not allowed to go out, and if there was anything to do, wait for them to come back from crying.
It is a very hard thing to enter the palace and cry the spirit, you have to kneel for three days and three nights in a row, and you can only simply enter some tea and rice crackers in the middle, and you have to shed tears from time to time, plus it is now nearly June, the weather is starting to be hot, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the crying spirit is tormenting.
I heard that when Emperor Huihe was in power, many officials and wives who entered the palace to cry were carried out. Shen Ning was a little worried about Shen Yu's body, after all, she was not a young man of eighteen or twenty-two, she didn't know if Shen Yu's body could hold it, but it was a pity that she couldn't go in place of her mother, so she had to order Xia Ci Jiang Lao Ginseng to cut slices and wrap them in a lotus package sewn with cotton and green tea, so that Shen Yu's could see the opportunity to secretly take a few slices.
Shen Yu sighed that her daughter was a close-fitting little padded jacket, took the purse to take a look, and saw that it was also a pure white color, and when she smelled it carefully, she couldn't smell any ginseng, it seemed that this would indeed not attract the attention of others, so she decided to take it into the palace.
According to the arrangement of the Ministry of Rites, Shen Yu and other ladies followed the female officials to Cining Palace, and there were already many people in it kneeling and crying, these were the princes, grandsons, concubines and royal relatives, and they worked even harder. In the seven days of the Queen Mother's rest, she has to cry for seven days, these are the rules of Dayong's funeral, and in the royal family, it is necessary to strictly abide by it to set an example. These ladies and court officials knelt behind the royal family, and they began to kneel and cry on the left and right, and the whole imperial city was in mourning.
The sun is very fierce these days, the main hall of Cining Palace is full of ice trays, although the plate of melted ice water is also brought out and placed in front of the crying officials, but it has little effect, many people feel more and more difficult, Cining Palace crying has long been quieter, occasionally I heard one or two whimpering, everyone is praying for the time to pass sooner.
On May 26, Shen Yushi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and it was okay to hold on for another day, because of the support of ginseng, although she looked haggard, her spirit was fine, and the wives of other officials were not very supportive, Mrs. Wei couldn't stand it yesterday and fainted, and this morning Shenke's wife also fainted, and many of the officials' wives present were pale, and it seemed that they were barely supporting.
Suddenly, Shen Yu heard a panicked child's voice screaming: "Blood, blood!" Immediately, there was a commotion and chaos among the royal clansmen kneeling in front of them, and they didn't know what was going on, but they could only hear someone shouting loudly: "Quickly pass the imperial doctor, quickly transfer the imperial doctor!" ”
In fact, the imperial doctor knelt down in Cining Palace, and at that moment, Sun Boyang stood up and went to the front tremblingly, only to see the seventh princess pointing to a pool of blood in front of her with a panicked expression, the blood was still bubbling down, accumulating more and more, and the one kneeling in front of her was the second princess Chen Wanrou, and there was also the second prince Shangguan Chengyou who was also panicked.
Sun Boyang was shocked, and was about to say something, but saw that Chen Wanrou had fallen to the ground softly, her eyes were closed, her face was pale, and the doctor's parents were hearted, Sun Boyang didn't care about the occasion, so he hurriedly shouted loudly: "It's not good, the princess has a miscarriage, hurry up and carry it down, hurry up!" ”
As soon as his words came out, everyone present was stunned, the miscarriage before the spirit, the disaster of blood and light, not only collided with the deceased, this is still a big ominous, this is a taboo thing for the entire Dayong. The already ugly faces of the officials of Taichang Temple, the Ministry of Rites, and the Si Tiantai are even more ugly now, how could such a thing happen? Wei Jingyao couldn't maintain his calm expression anymore, and he hurriedly glanced at Shen Ke and the others, then hurriedly got up and went to the Zichen Palace, asking to see Emperor Changtai.
Not long after, the officials of the Ministry of Rites issued the will of Emperor Changtai: the crying spirit is over, and everyone leaves the palace and returns home. Everyone returned home early because of this accident, and many people were secretly relieved that they would finally not be carried out. When Shen Ning and the others saw Shen Zejing and Shen Yu, they were startled, thinking that something had happened to these two people, why did they come back half a day earlier than expected, and hurriedly asked, only to know that there was an accident in Cining Palace, and the crying spirit ended early.
"You don't know how miserable the situation is, the blood on the faces of the second princess is gone, and I don't know how the blood came down, a lot of them gathered at once, and the face of Lord Yusun of Shang Pharmacy has changed." After the rest, Shen Yu had already recovered her spirits, and was describing the situation to Shen Hu, Aunt Li, Aunt He and others, she just took advantage of the gap to see that scene, of course, these words, Shen Ning and the other little girls could not listen.
"There is blood in front of the spirit, this is very ominous, how can you say that these two princesses will have a miscarriage? It is said that because she is pregnant, the queen has a will to make her kneel for only half an hour every day, how could she have a miscarriage? ”
Yes, why did Chen Wanrou have a miscarriage? Or is it when you are crying? Inside Qingzhu, Shen Ning was also thinking, although she didn't hear Shen Yu's words with her own ears, she quickly knew Chen Wanrou's situation at that time - who called Dong Fu to have a particularly good relationship with Mingxuan's maid?
Chen Wanrou had a miscarriage, or in front of the spirit, the second prince's mansion not only lost an heir, but also because of this ominous matter, the emperor was angry and dissatisfied with the second prince's mansion, and the second prince won back the emperor's grace with the queen mother's illness and collapse, it is estimated that this time it will be in vain, so Chen Wanrou's fetus is definitely not an accident, this person is really good, killing two birds with one stone, it seems that this matter is either the third prince or Shangguan Changzhi, Shen Ning thought.
Shangguan Chengyou and Emperor Changtai naturally thought of what Shen Ning thought of, Shangguan Chengyou cried bitterly in front of Emperor Changtai, saying that this was a plan designed by someone, just to separate the relationship between me and my father, Emperor Changtai also felt that this matter was too coincidental, and also ordered Zhang Sheng and other servants to investigate secretly. Baidu search or vv, update faster After Shangguan Chengyou left, Emperor Changtai remembered a large pool of blood in front of the queen mother's spirit, and the second princess's womb was too coincidental, is there really something ominous? One by one, he remembered that Concubine Mu described the detailed scene at that time to him, and he was somewhat worried in his heart.
