Chapter 832: Funeral (1)
After a long and chaotic night, many things have changed, including the royal palace, including the imperial capital, including Aurora, and perhaps the world outside Aurora has become different.
The only thing that hasn't changed is probably the 'Great Source' that people want to change.
Struggle, rebellion, trial, repression...... In a matter of days, the whole kingdom was reduced to a pot of boiling water, and one after another was thrown down until no one could smell the soup that was going to come out of it.
Immediately afterward, the chaos was calmed down overnight.
On the first day after Bai Heng's death, the gate of the national capital was opened, and the princes joined forces to enter Beijing. Forcibly suppressing all rebellions and sealing off the inside and outside of the palace, everyone is speculating whether the next drama will be the yellow robe.
But immediately after, the day after Bai Heng's death, the new emperor succeeded to the throne.
But the only winner surprised everyone.
It's not the Yuan family, it's not the Liu family, it's not the indignant Changsun family, and it's not the Ye family, which is known as the ambition of the wolf...... The ones who had the last laugh were the Bai family, who had changed the head of the family, and the Yunlou family, who died to the point that only the last single seedling remained.
Anyway, the last remaining one of these two families is the same person.
- Yunlou Baixi.
In fact, it is also possible to remove the word 'cloud building'......
The first to bow his head was the Yuan family, the Yuan family was the least ambitious, and he didn't care about foreign things the most, although he died a family head for this, but the Yuan family himself was not sad at all, but had the pleasure of dying well and dying wonderfully.
Under the pressure of Mr. Hu, Yuan Changqing broke through the limit and reached the realm that the previous family masters could not reach, as evidenced by the last remaining sword.
At the invitation of Bai Heng, the Yuan family came down the mountain to seek death, and now that he has found it, he naturally has no intention of staying for the New Year's dinner. Bai Xi repaired a letter in the name of the head of the Bai family, and after reintroducing the agreement between Bai Heng and them, the Yuan family simply threw away the military power, turned around and left, and went back to the deep mountains.
Liu's is more difficult to do, but it's not impossible to talk about.
It is reassuring that whoever becomes the emperor will not be able to let the people of the Liu family go.
Without him, the image is really not to the extent that 'bad' can be described.
For hundreds of years, the Liu family has focused on ghosts and beasts, and has made himself half-human and not a ghost, most of the old people in the family are like zombies, and the young people are also ghostly and gloomy, and they are by no means good.
Even if you put on a dragon robe and sit on the throne, you will only be regarded as the remains of the emperor. But the beast nature seems to be invisible, but the resources required for research are terrifying.
Especially the way of ghosts, Jinshan Yinshan can also burn out if it is ruthless.
So, it depends on what price you have to come up with to satisfy the appetite of this group of guys.
It turns out that one cloud building is enough.
The cub is not distressed to sell Yetian, not to mention that it is still Yunlou Qingshu's things, if it weren't for Ye Qingxuan's reminder, the ghost place in Yunlou City would have been forgotten by Bai Xi to the back of his head, and now he can take it out and use it, so naturally there is no reason to be reluctant.
After the three families persuaded the two, the remaining eldest grandson clan was naturally lonely.
After all, the long-cherished wish of the millennium is still difficult to complete, and after talking and talking, calculating and calculating, after all, he still can't make up his mind to go without the fish dying in the net, with the benefits of eating enough to become a fat man, he handed over the military power and returned to the fiefdom.
If so, the new emperor's position is solid.
Although there are still too many problems to count......
For example, what is Your Majesty's last name?
It's true that you're the head of two families, but you have to have one in front.
So which is the first 'Yunlou' or 'Bai'?
Bai Xi is Bai Heng's adopted daughter, yes, but there are two words in front of it, but Yunlou Bai Xi is the daughter of Yunlou Qingshu, yes, but this daughter killed her father by herself, and whether she is willing to admit this surname is another matter.
And there is also the original letter of the first emperor's handwritten letter, canonizing Bai Xi as a princess and changing her surname to Zhao......
Okay, now I have to think about whether to have the surname Zhao.
Fortunately, His Majesty now doesn't know where to catch a person with the blood of the royal Zhao family and pass it back on, which is equivalent to passing a bend from himself, and the surname Zhao still continues to be surnamed Zhao.
What is Your Majesty's surname now?
For a while, I don't know how many people are so anxious that their brains hurt.
At best, this problem is just a title, and at worst, it is a question of standing in line......
Yunlou and Bai, Your Majesty can be the head of the family, can you still step on two boats? Are you loyal to Yunlou or loyal to Bai?
Are you a friend of the Bai clan or a friend of the Yun Lou clan?
Or rather, which side of the enemy are you going to be?
Besides, this is not a question of whether Your Majesty's surname is Yunlou or Bai now, if you take a long-term view, there is also the question of what Your Majesty's surname will be in the future!
Do you have the surname Yunlou or the surname Bai?
Or are you ready to ...... Surname Ye Na?
And what is the whereabouts of the Ye family? Do you want to rehabilitate or continue to cover this issue? Do you want to restore the original fiefdom, or do you want to merge it into the royal domain?
For a while, everything was complicated and messy, but some issues were too sensitive, and it was categorically impossible to put them away, and I don't know how many people were anxious about it.
Fortunately, His Majesty has left a new trouble in his busy schedule, and all troubles are not troubles.
- State funeral Bai Heng.
It's a big trouble.
Let's not mention how the regent who has been in power for fifteen years and covers the sky with one hand died, nor how the first emperor died, anyway, in the future history books, these two can only die of illness.
And it is necessary to avoid the important and light, and erase this period of history where no one knows what happened.
Regardless of how many historians' hairs had to be grabbed to get this done, just a nickname was enough to make the doctors of Shiqu Pavilion play out their heads.
Moreover, His Majesty insisted on burying Bai Heng in the mausoleum built for him by the first emperor, no matter how many people's brains were broken under the steps, it would not work.
On the fifth day after Bai Heng's death, he was buried in such a beautiful way.
Generally speaking, at this time, the emperor will posthumously seal a name to show favor and reluctance, anyway, it is impossible for the dead to jump out of the grave, and empty checks are written casually, but now His Majesty does not know why he is very dead at this point, and he does not continue to add grace at all, which seems a little unkind, but he is treated with a state funeral.
So contradictory.
However, it didn't matter to the ravaged minds of the courtiers......
They only hope that after His Majesty ascends the throne, these three fires can be stopped a little.
If so, the funeral takes place.
Although it was a funeral, the popular folk scene of five sons crying for the grave was not put up, and everyone just symbolically remembered it - in fact, I am afraid that I am not half sad in my heart, but there are a lot of people who are relaxed and happy.
I'm finally dead.
This traitor who has controlled the government for so many years.
I don't know how many people breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
No one knows how much sincerity is in the pretended tears.
The mourning was solemn, presided over by the head of the Ye family himself, and His Majesty was present to pay his respects, and he also carried the 'former royal lineage' of unknown origin, the current head of the Zhao family.
A woman who looks a little sluggish and sluggish, her eyes always seem to be sleepwalking, and others are always slow to respond to her by half a beat.
I never woke up.
When the funeral was over and everyone was ready to leave, in the cold silence, she seemed to be still stuck in the past, silent.
"Sad?"
Ye Qingxuan asked her.
"I don't know. โ
The former emperor shook his head suddenly, "In the past few days, I have seen a lot of things about him, but they are all different from the one I saw him." I've forgotten a lot of things, and even if I try to remember it now, I can't remember his face, only his eyes are still clear. โ
When Ye Qingxuan heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
I'm afraid this is also what Bai Heng wants to see, right?
However, although she said that she should not remember herself, if she really forgot, that old guy would probably be a little sad, right?
What an irony, Bai Heng.
"But one thing I'm sure ofโ"
Ye Qingxuan suddenly heard her voice.
When I looked back in confusion, I saw her serious expression.
"I like him a lot. โ
As if recalling the remnants of the memory, and seeing the remnants of the eyes again, she seemed to wake up from a dream and opened her eyes:
"Because of that kind of look, it's very strong. โ
"I want to be like him," she said. โ
After a long silence, Ye Qingxuan laughed self-deprecatingly, not knowing what to say, for a long time, he patted her on the shoulder:
"Then try to live......"
-
-
After returning to the palace, Ye Qingxuan walked on the jade steps alone, looking around at all this, he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. Just when he was reminiscing about the past, he heard the sound of kowtowing from the palace, and an old man kowtowed in embarrassment, his voice hoarse and flustered:
"Your Majesty, the old minister died in a bad mood, and the sudden wedding after the state funeral is inevitably not in line with the ancient rites, and besides, Your Majesty has just ascended the throne now, and it is a ...... of all kinds of waste."
Wait a minute!
Big wedding?
Who's going to get married?
Outside the palace, Ye Qingxuan was like a thunderbolt and almost rolled down the steps.
"So fast?"
Finally picked up his chin from the ground, he looked in from outside the palace, only to see the old man who was knocked down the steps and his head was bleeding, and Bai Xi, whose eyes were cold on the throne and did not show any pity at all.
Hearing his voice, Bai Xi looked up, his eyes ...... It gets colder.
"Huh?"
She didn't seem to know what Ye Qingxuan was talking about, and a suspicious voice came out of her nostrils, but Ye Qingxuan shuddered and pretended not to say anything.
Bai Xi's face looked a little better, and he nailed Ye Qingxuan, who was about to run away, with his eyes, and then waved his hand to drive people away: "I have my own considerations." If Tai Changqing is fine, let's go down. โ
The old man pretended not to hear, and was still kowtowing, and was soon dragged out by two golden gourd warriors.
Suddenly, only Ye Qingxuan and Bai Xi were left in the main hall.
An increasingly awkward silence.
No one spoke.
Until Ye Qingxuan couldn't stand Bai Xi's eyes, and pretended to cough twice before speaking:
"Ahem, cousin......"
"Huh?" Bai Xi hummed another unpleasant syllable from his nose.
"Bai Xi!
Ye Qingxuan hurriedly spoke, holding up the kind expression that he used to be a cousin: "Sometimes you don't have to be too anxious, isn't there an old saying? Take your time, it's faster...... I'm not saying I don't want to, I'm just saying ......"
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the shrill sound of a bell in the distance.
- Someone rushed into Ouchi!
The roar of the sonorous iron armor rang out.
Two lines of Praetorian Guards rushed to the front of the palace. But Ye Qingxuan's eyes were sharp, but he saw the 'assassin' running in the distance.
That's clearly the standard armor of the round table division!
And that height and heart sound, Ye Qingxuan recognized it clearly: he was his own herald!
"Get out of the way !!"
The knight was so flustered with his empty hands that he ignored the strict guards of the forbidden palace, held a box high in both hands, broke into the outside of the palace, and ran wildly:
"Get out of the way, I want to see Your Highness! Your Highness! Where is Your Highness?!"
Ye Qingxuan frowned, and stretched out his hand to stop the guards who wanted to correct him on the spot.
"What's going on?"
He looked at his panicked guard: "What's wrong with Anglu?"
The knight knelt on the ground and presented the iron box with both hands: "Your Highness, Avalon has sent an urgent report through the wind tunnel! Since yesterday, it has been urgently reported nineteen times! If it is not His Highness, he cannot open it in person, please forgive his subordinates for being rude......"
Before he finished speaking, Ye Qingxuan snatched the iron box with his hand, and without caring about comforting him, he directly tore open the iron box, and a thin letter made of ether crystals fell into his hand.
Soon, his face turned iron-blue.
In an instant, the people in the entire imperial capital felt a panic in their hearts.
A biting chill rose from the entire palace and spread in all directions, and in an instant, the cold winter swept in, and countless frost flowers unfolded.
Something heavy weighed on everyone's hearts, and it was difficult to breathe ****** the gods weakened a little, and they almost fainted instantly.
I don't know how many enchantments in the palace were stimulated by losing control in an instant, Ye Qingxuan shook his hand and tore apart those soaring thunder fires, and for the third time, he read the emergency report in his hand again.
Clench your palms.
Ashes fell from his hands.
"Shire ......"
