Chapter 233: Empress Dowager Jiang

The rebellion in the Yongdu Palace seemed to be more handy for Xia Chenyu.

After all, he has been in business here for more than a decade. Many people in the palace have been controlled and bought by him in various ways.

Fortunately, the crown prince Xia Lixuan made corresponding preparations so that Yonggong did not fall immediately.

Xia Lixuan changed his peaceful and stable image this time, and as soon as he made a move, he ordered the killing of many palace people who participated in the rebellion.

However, Xia Chenyu's preparation is obviously more adequate than Xia Lixuan's.

This led to Xia Lixuan's retreat.

In the end, Xia Lixuan had no choice but to follow Empress Dowager Jiang's instructions and find a way to lead Xia Chenyu to Yongci Palace.

Empress Qin, the crown princess and his side concubine Su Yanxia and others took their children to hide in Yongci Palace early.

That was still the letter that Zhu Linxi gave him, and it was also the Empress Dowager Jiang who secretly told Wang Xibao that there was a last resort to save his life in Yongci Palace.

In this way, when Xia Chenyu rebelled, Xia Lixuan didn't have to be too distracted, as long as he strictly guarded Yongci Palace.

Now the situation is becoming more and more crisis, Xia Lixuan has no choice but to temporarily decide to retreat to Yongci Palace to ask what the imperial grandmother's plans are.

"Imperial Grandmother, you and the Queen Mother should leave through the secret passage first." After asking for peace, Xia Lixuan proposed to the Empress Dowager Jiang.

"Xuan'er, the imperial grandmother is old, and it is estimated that it will only be a few days. So, let's let the Imperial Grandmother guard this last hurdle. Later, no matter what the imperial grandmother wants to do, you don't have to stop you. Until the dust settles, you can come out and put down the rebellion. ”

"Imperial Grandmother, no. Grandchildren can't let you do that. Xia Lixuan had already understood what Empress Dowager Jiang meant.

He also suddenly understood the purpose of Empress Dowager Jiang putting her mother, wife and children in the Yongci Palace.

"Don't stop the Imperial Grandmother. Let the death of the imperial grandmother be more meaningful. Empress Dowager Jiang said with a smile on the corner of her mouth. It doesn't look like someone who is about to die.

"No, it's better for my grandson to do it." Even if there is an element of acting, Xia Lixuan is not without his true feelings at this moment.

Especially after fighting Xia Chenyu for so long. He felt that if he couldn't defend the Yonggong and Yongdu, it would be better to fight with the other party, even if he died in the hands of the other party. That's right, the ancestors and the ancestors.

"No, I don't. Grandmother is old, or let grandmother do it. You can call someone to call Brother Yu in later. Then you take refuge in the secret passages, and when the dust settles, the chaos will be calmed down. Empress Dowager Jiang said earnestly: "The foundation created by our ancestors depends on you." ”

"Grandmother!" Xia Lixuan shouted bitterly.

"After my grandmother went, she took care of the Zhenguo Mansion for me, took care of the Heshun Hou Mansion, and took care of Baomei." Empress Dowager Jiang did not forget to advise in the end.

"Yes, the grandson must do what the grandmother wants." Xia Lixuan finally knelt on the ground, kowtowed respectfully three times, and said, "Grandson is here to bid farewell to the emperor's grandmother!" ”

Empress Dowager Jiang waved her hand and said, "Get up quickly." ”

Empress Dowager Jiang turned her head to Guixi who was standing beside her and said, "Guixi, later, you can hide too." After the mourning family goes, you will go to Baomei, and Baomei will give you a pension. "Guixi is probably the last thought of the Queen Mother of the Yongci Palace.

"No, the old slave accompanied the Queen Mother on the road." Guixi cried and knelt down.

"Why are you in trouble?" Empress Dowager Jiang said helplessly.

"Please let the Queen Mother become an old slave."

"Okay, so that the mourning family will not feel lonely."

……

On the way back to Yongdu, Wang Jibao and Zhu Linxi first received good news.

"Report to the master, the rebellion in Yongdu and Yonggong has been put down. The people of Heshunhou Mansion were also safe and unharmed. The person in charge of the inquiry immediately reported it to the two of them as soon as he received the exact news.

The news made the couple quite excited.

Now that Yongdu and Yonggong have been saved, they don't need to rush back in such a hurry. Now they have thrown Emperor Yongsheng and others away for a long distance.

Wang Jibao and Zhu Linxi's snow lion horses are worthy of spirituality, and when their husband and wife have not yet set off to Yongdu, the two BMWs came over by themselves. This is also a rare surprise for the couple.

But then they received another piece of bad news.

That is the place where the Heshun Marquis Mansion was set on fire and burned a lot. Fortunately, Prince Jing quelled the rebellion in time, so that the Heshun Marquis Mansion was not completely destroyed.

This made Wang Jibao hate it so much. So she made up her mind, no matter who did it, she would never let those people go.

Even if the speed slows down, Wang Jibao and Zhu Linxi's speed is not slow. When they rushed back to Yongdu, the first thing they did was to go and join the people in Heshun's Mansion.

After making sure that they were indeed safe and sound, a big stone in Wang Jibao's heart could finally land.

Wang Jibao was most worried about the Jiang family, afraid that she would be deceived by Xia Chenyu's people to Yonggong. The consequences would be unimaginable.

Fortunately, the Jiang family followed the advice of Wang Jibao and the Empress Dowager Jiang. That is, no matter what news about the Empress Dowager Jiang was spread outside, he resolutely refused to listen to it and resolutely did not believe it.

Therefore, when the death knell came from the other side of the Yonggong Palace, and was told by the eunuch to go to the Yongci Palace to cry for the Empress Dowager Jiang, the Jiang family still could not accept the news that the Empress Dowager Jiang had passed away.

On the way to Yonggong to cry in white plain clothes, although Jiang and Wang Jibao were full of tears, they still had a trace of luck in their hearts, thinking that this was a fake and confusing news.

But when they saw that more and more people were gathered here to cry spirits, they couldn't help but believe it.

In the past few days, because of the rebellion, a lot of people have died in Yongdu.

Almost every family is holding a funeral, but in the face of such a major event as the death of the queen mother of the previous country, the funeral of those families can only be simple, and it must be completed as soon as possible.

Then, according to the level of their respective grades, they need to go to different places to cry for the Empress Dowager Jiang.

Wang Jibao, Jiang's family, and Li's family all belong to the Zhengyi product, and according to the regulations, the Empress Dowager Jiang knelt and cried in front of the palace spirit for three days. In the future, it is necessary to continue to cry on several important days, and this will continue until the burial of the Empress Dowager Jiang.

The specific matter, Wang Jibao is experiencing it for the first time, and she is not clear, she only needs to follow the requirements of the Ministry of Rites, and follow the more experienced Li and Jiang to do it.

After Emperor Yongsheng returned, Yonggong had been briefly repaired. However, there are still ruined places that can be seen everywhere.

This time on the way to Yongci Palace, Wang Jibao felt unusually heavy. I can no longer see the aunt and grandmother who are so loving to me.

This Yonggong Palace has also become more and more distant from Wang Jibao because of the departure of Empress Dowager Jiang. Many of the things I have experienced here in the past seem to be stored in the depths of memory.

As soon as Wang Jibao entered the Yongci Palace, he suddenly felt inexplicably lonely.

This is no longer my home in the palace. There is really no longer the best relative for herself, and even her father-in-law, who would personally come to pick her up in the past, can no longer be seen.

Even if Wang Jibao is sad, he still has to take care of his own mother, Jiang.

Jiang Shi hadn't gone inside yet, but when he saw everything in Su Bai, he was already crying and was about to faint.

In this way, the already elderly Li family has to help Wang Jibao take care of the Jiang family in turn.

When a few people helped each other into the main hall of Yongci Palace, Empress Qin personally came forward to greet them. And said comfortingly: "Xinmei, Baomei, you must mourn." In the end, the queen mother walked very calmly and with peace of mind. ”

"Queen's cousin, I've worked hard for you these days." Wang Jibao wiped her tears and said politely.

"That's what my cousin should do."

Empress Qin, the crown princess, and the concubines of the harem have all been here for several days.

This is because Empress Dowager Jiang did not die in the past two days. It was not until Emperor Yongsheng returned to Yonggong and simply dealt with a group of rebels that the news of Empress Dowager Jiang's death was announced.

When she saw the huge coffin parked in the center of the hall, Wang Jibao was even more sure that the aunt and grandmother who doted on her like a treasure really went.

Her tears were like open floodgates, and she couldn't close them.

She stepped forward silently and stroked the coffin little by little with her hand. She didn't understand, and she didn't know why she did this, it seemed that only in this way could she get closer to the Empress Dowager Jiang.

Empress Dowager Jiang left like this, choosing a vigorous and great way to die.

She used her last life to save Yonggong and Dayong. even used this method to preserve the continuation of the Zhenguo Mansion and even the Heshun Marquis Mansion after her death.

"Brother Yu. The mourning family really regretted that they were soft-hearted and did not persuade the emperor to kill all the party of the abolished prince. Empress Dowager Jiang looked at Xia Chenyu, who walked into her bedroom, and said calmly in a white robe.

"It seems that it is a little too late for the Queen Mother to regret it now. But Yu is here to thank you for everything you have done for me. Xia Chenyu said with a deep salute.

"That's how you thanked the mourners?" After Empress Dowager Jiang finished speaking, she coughed a few times.

"The Queen Mother still has to take good care of her body. I also want the Queen Mother to witness my wedding with Baomei. Xia Chenyu said with a hint of concern.

"What? Could it be that the mourner's ears are not good? Did you hear it wrong? Empress Dowager Jiang asked in surprise.

"None? You heard it right. I said, I want to marry Baomei, and I want to make Baomei my queen. Xia Chenyu said firmly. It's not a joke at all.

"But Baomei is already married. And he is still married to the county king of Shaoguo. Empress Dowager Jiang still looked at the personable Xia Chenyu standing below with an expression of disbelief.

"What if you get married? What about a county king? For the sake of Bao Mei, I am willing to overturn the entire Dayong. Xia Chenyu said this with a hint of madness.
