On the sixth day of the first month of the second year of Duanhua, on the auspicious day specially selected by Qin Tianjian, the enthronement ceremony of Emperor Sutai was held as scheduled.

The ceremony completely followed the example of Emperor Huizong and Emperor Xianjia when they practiced Zuo, which was grand and solemn, gorgeous and solemn.

The only difference is that Emperor Sutai inherited the throne as the heir of King Suhui, so when he paid tribute to the Taimiao, in addition to the ancestors of Darui, he also had to worship the tablet of his father-in fact, he should no longer be called King Suhui.

After Emperor Sutai confirmed his succession, in order to express his observance of filial piety, he posthumously crowned King Suhui as Emperor Wuzong.

For this point, there was a small dispute in the court, and some people thought that King Suhui died before the establishment of Darui after all, not to mention Emperor Huizong at that time, Taizu was not called the emperor - that is to say, when King Suhui died, he was not even the emperor's grandson.

Even if Emperor Sutai wants to honor his father, according to some examples of the previous dynasty, it is almost the same to seal a prince with a mourning nature.

Directly came up with Emperor Wuzong, but it was a bit too much.

However, King Hengzhu Su Hui has long since died, and his reputation was not bad during his lifetime, Jian Xubai and the others were too lazy to care about it here, and they muttered for a while with those who opposed it, and the matter was still settled.

The enthronement ceremony was a few days earlier, I don't know if Qin Tianjian did choose a good day, or coincidentally, the continuous heavy snow fell on this day, and suddenly stopped, but it was rare to have a day of snow after the first glow.

Everyone either casually or sincerely said, "This is a sign that God loves the new king", and passed this day in a proper manner.

What stunned everyone was that early the next morning, Emperor Sutai mentioned the matter of pardoning Empress Wei's mother and son at the court meeting.

The main topic of the day was actually about the disposition of the Emperor Duanhua.

After all, King Qing's matter has really dragged on for a long time, and this matter broke out when the royal family was defenseless, even if the royal family issued gag orders one after another, it still couldn't stop too many insiders and the content of the news was too sensational, and it still spread to the public.

Such a big thing, it is impossible to be vague in the people, let alone the royal family?

If it weren't for the fact that the new monarch had never been selected, it would not have been possible to delay until now.

It is to officially inherit the throne with the new monarch, of course, to solve this trouble, by the way, the new monarch is not usurping the throne, but legal, reasonable, reasonable and appropriate.

Although Su Shaoge had not left to return to Qingzhou at this time, he was still in his father's filial piety, and it was impossible for him to appear in the court.

Therefore, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, except for Jian Xubai, did not know Emperor Sutai's calculations.

When the young emperor mentioned Empress Wei's mother and son, he thought that he was going to avenge the eldest princess of Changxing, and everyone was prepared for Emperor Sutai to ask for all kinds of humiliation of Empress Wei's mother and son and then give them to death, and even thought of Wei Xi, who had just handed over the letter to Shi, and didn't know if he could escape this catastrophe?

Who would have thought that Emperor Sutai would say with a pleasant face: "Although Duanhua is disregarded for human ethics and is not a son of man, but the Wei family was born in a famous family, known as a lady, when the first emperor was there, he often praised the eldest daughter-in-law, even if there were occasional foolish actions, it was also flawed." The emperor's eldest grandson, Chengguang, is also courteous and humble, with outstanding conduct. Neither of them knew about King Qing, and they were very innocent. I thought I could get a light hair? ”

Everyone was dumbfounded!

So much so that no one answered for a long time.

In the end, he still knew that he was simple and vain, and said: "Your Majesty is magnanimous!" ”

Everyone hesitated to praise Emperor Sutai for his magnanimity and open-mindedness - because it was too sudden, the ministers were caught off guard, and they had their own ideas about the purpose of Emperor Sutai's doing.

Thinking crookedly, he even wondered if Emperor Sutai had the same special hobbies as Fuyang Hou's cousin Ji Mingfei?

Counting that Empress Wei is nearly ten years older than Emperor Sutai, it will be almost two generations - but the age gap between Ji Mingfei and the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom is even bigger, isn't it?

What's more, in terms of appearance, the beautiful and charming Empress Wei is much stronger than the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom!

Emperor Sutai didn't know about these people's dirty thoughts, but he still explained the reason for doing so: "Originally, the Wei clan planned to poison my sister Princess Changxing, and she should be beheaded according to the law!" However, the queen mother took care of the feelings of the first emperor, and thought that the royal family has not been prosperous in recent years, and Cheng Huang has been lingering on the sickbed since his assassination, and his father's sin is unforgivable. I couldn't bear to brush off my aunt's intentions, so I accepted it. Now the ministers have no opinion, which is very good. ”

After a pause, he said, "It was also a disaster in the Wei Mansion not long ago, Wei Shangshu's family was poisoned, which made the Queen Mother deeply compassionate, thinking that Wei Shangshu had worked all his life for the country, and in his later years, he did not have a son and a half daughter to serve, and he was really desolate!" Therefore, it was decided to pardon Wei, so that Wei Shangshu could leave a biological daughter as a memory. ”

If you listen to these words from the standpoint of the Wei family, it is estimated that you can be directly angry to death - Wei Xi's family died at the hands of the Su family, the queen mother of the Su family, and what kind of "compassion" heart does she have to let go of the daughter and grandson of the Wei family? !

But there is a way to become a king and lose a villain, which will be up and down the court, and in addition to being shocked, they all feel that the Wei family has chosen a big bargain: they have been fighting for the throne with the new monarch for so many years, and they have also murdered the only sister of the new monarch, so that they can be forgiven, which is simply a deep blessing!

However, some people have noticed that after the new monarch expressed his intention to be lenient, Jian Xubai, who is righteous, was the first to stand up and echo it, so does Jian Xubai also agree with this matter?

Or, is this actually the meaning of simplicity, the new monarch and the queen mother are just the requirements of this newly promoted minister, and they have to do such a high profile?

After all, Empress Wei's relationship with Yanhou Mansion was not bad before.

In short, no one believes Emperor Sutai's so-called "Queen Mother's deep compassion" at all.

Empress Dowager Su has been a queen for more than 20 years, although it is inconvenient for these courtiers to meet with the harem, but after 20 years, they occasionally listen to it, and they probably know the temperament of this queen mother.

Who doesn't know that Empress Dowager Su is not the kind of person who will open up to her female enemies?

The only ones who really wanted to spare Empress Wei's mother and son could only be Jian Xubai or Emperor Sutai - as for why these two did this, they had to go back to the house, summon their staff companions, and discuss and figure it out.

Since the Su family seized the palace by force, Empress Wei's mother and son were placed under house arrest in the East Palace.

In this case, of course, they are not well informed.

So it wasn't until after the dispersal of the dynasty that the holy decree arrived in the East Palace, and Empress Wei's mother and son knew that they could not die.

Although the Divine Decree had reduced them to commoners, and had expelled them from the imperial capital, they were never allowed to return—but they were far more than they had expected.

In particular, the chamberlain who passed the decree also told Empress Wei that no, now she should be called Wei Yinxuan: "Your dowry, as well as the rewards of the Empress Dowager, the first emperor and the Empress Dowager over the years, can be taken away." Your Majesty has already spoken, although you two will not be allowed to step into the imperial capital in the future, but Prince Chenghuang is a royal bloodline after all, and it should not be taken lightly! ”

Wei Yinxuan felt incredible, this means that not only will they be pardoned for their capital crimes, but they will also be allowed to live a rich and peaceful life?!

How is this possible?!

However, when the messenger finished speaking, he left.

This chamberlain is Emperor Sutai's henchman, even if he is not a confidant, Wei Yinxuan's current identity is impossible to say that he can do whatever he wants with an inner servant, so even if he has a lot of things to ask him, people will definitely refuse to stay, and she dare not force it.

After sending him away, he could only take the holy decree and look at it repeatedly, hoping to find the reason.

In the end, it was the main room that Emperor Xianjia personally picked for his eldest son, Wei Yinxuan looked at the holy decree for a long time, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly stood up and walked outside: "Go and personally tell Your Majesty, this palace ...... I want to go and thank the Queen Mother! ”

Many of the waiters outside were her confidants who had been specially arranged for Lu Chengxuan before, and they were loyal to their mother and son, even if they knew that their future was bleak, most of them still adhered to their role as master and servant - this is also the reason why their mother and son had been under house arrest here for so many days, and Lu Chengxuan, who was seriously injured, was still alive - only then did he become more and more happy when he heard the holy decree, and when he heard the news, he hurriedly sent someone to tell Emperor Sutai.

And Wei Yinxuan herself entered the inner room and began to change clothes and freshen up.

Her confidant in Weiyang Palace, Xinxian, followed up with anxiety, and whispered while waiting: "Niangniang, Her Royal Highness Princess Changxing and Her Majesty are siblings, and they have a very good relationship since childhood, and the Queen Mother is here—although this son doesn't know what their mother and son will do to show mercy, but if you want to thank you......"

Xin Xian hesitated and didn't dare to continue, but Wei Yinxuan took the silver hairpin and brushed the sideburns that had fallen down, motioned her to tie it up for herself, and said in a low voice: "Are you afraid that Your Majesty or the Queen Mother will not like it after listening to my request?" Even when I'm grateful, what do you do? ”

“…… The slave and maid thought that this matter was incomprehensible. Xin Xian tactfully admitted.

In her opinion, even if Empress Dowager Su and Emperor Sutai forgave Wei Yinxuan's mother and son for some reason, they definitely didn't want to see them again.

Wei Yinxuan will come up this time, isn't this deliberately blocking them?

Maybe the two of them were unhappy, even though the holy decree had been issued, they secretly made a look and secretly sent someone to chase down the imperial capital and poison them?

It's better to take advantage of the fact that they haven't repented at the moment, quickly pack up, and leave quietly.

"Let's not talk about receiving the grace, it is common practice to enter the palace to thank you." Wei Yinxuan looked at the bronze mirror and sighed bitterly, "Besides, this holy decree - have you thought about it?" In the holy decree, it is said that it is the queen mother's intention to forgive us, but now it is not Yi's decree but the holy decree! ”

She said coldly, "Obviously, this is not the intention of the Queen Mother at all, but completely out of the will!" Even the Queen Mother was very opposed, so she was reluctant to make a decree, Your Majesty had no choice but to make this decree under the banner of the Queen Mother! ”

Xin Xian was surprised: "Is that what Your Majesty meant?!" It's just that why did Your Majesty do this?! ”

Although she has only started to serve Wei Yinxuan in close quarters in recent months, she has been a palace maid for some years, and she has heard of the sister-brother relationship between Emperor Sutai and Princess Changxing: these two are brothers and sisters of the same father and mother, even if Princess Changxing has a reputation for arrogance and domineering, she has always loved her younger brother, and Emperor Sutai is not the kind of strange person who does not treat his brothers and sisters as people, so what reason is there to be estranged from his sister?

Their sister-brother relationship has always been very good.

Now Emperor Sutai will face the opposition of his biological mother and pardon the enemy who killed his sister?!
