Time flies, and 3 days have passed in a blink of an eye.

In the early morning of the fourth day, when the Buddha dawned, nine bells rang from inside the palace of the Yonghe Dynasty.

And with these nine bells, it indicates that a new dynastic change is coming.

The imperial capital has also lost the hustle and bustle of the past with the nine bells, and some fireworks places have also closed their doors.

When many people in the palace heard these nine bells, they knelt down on the spot and began to weep. Whether it's true or fake, at least it looks good on the surface.

Whether it is the eldest prince or the third prince, they all wore filial piety clothes and went straight to the emperor's bedroom.

And the entire palace is also operating quickly, setting up mourning halls, casting mausoleums, etc., which all need to be arranged.

And the only thing that is not good-looking is the appearance of the old emperor, because the body is highly poisonous, and after death, the poison completely explodes, causing the old emperor's face to be jet black.

This led to the fact that those palace maids did not dare to wash and change the clothes of the old emperor, and in the end, the queen brought a few concubines to wash and change the clothes of the old emperor and tidy up his appearance.

And the news of the death of the old emperor, with the imperial capital as the middle, quickly radiated to the surrounding area of the entire dynasty.

It's just that for the remote Feixi County, nearly 10 days have passed by the time the 800-mile urgent mail is delivered from the imperial court, and at that time, the old emperor is estimated to have gone to bed!

On this day, I was in the stands, watching the people below besiege Xiaobai, and suddenly there was a galloping sound of horses' hooves outside, which made me frown, and I didn't know why I was rushing forward, and a bad premonition came.

"Newspaper .... Imperial Emergency..."

The people who came at this time were sent by Zhuge Jin, and the people sent by the imperial dynasty were left in the front camp by Zhuge Jin to rest.

"Open the camp and let them in!"

I heard shouts from outside and ordered the guards to open the gate and let them in.

Then seven or eight horses galloped in.

The leader is a regimental commander, and it is no surprise that he is the commander of the Cold Front Cavalry Corps, which is somewhat impressed.

Galloping to the bottom of the high platform, with an emergency stop, the regiment commander directly turned over and dismounted, and then knelt down on one knee and said, "General Qiyu, the imperial dynasty has sent an eight-hundred-mile urgent mail, please take a look!"

Then the head of the group took out a bamboo tube from the baogu behind him and handed it over.

My body shook a little, and I could already guess what was going on!

Stretched out his hand and took the bamboo tube, which was sealed with a layer of fiery red vermilion lacquer, but it was slightly worn, and the lid was still intact.

I opened it directly, and there was a small bamboo tube inside, and after pouring it out, after the small bamboo tube, the small bamboo tube was tied with a black and white satin tied out of the tie flower, and when I saw this tie flower, I instantly understood what it meant.

It's just that just as I was about to throw the big bamboo tube, a small bamboo tube slipped out of the big bamboo tube. I immediately reached out and stuffed it into the bag.

Then I held the bamboo tube in my hand to help tie the flowers, and said to the people below: "I hope you didn't see anything about what happened just now, and if anyone asks, I hope you understand what to say!"

The leading regiment commander was stunned for a moment, then understood, and immediately said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, general, my subordinates only see the bamboo tube tied with flowers, and there is nothing else in the bamboo tube!"

I nodded, waved them down, and rested, and I stepped into the tent.

Sit down, open the bamboo tube, and pour out the letters inside.

When I opened the letter, there was only a page with a few simple and scribbled words, explaining when the emperor died, when he was going to hold the funeral, and so on.

In the end, he also said that if he could catch up, all the officials who received the urgent mail would immediately return to attend the funeral. Finally, there is the seal of the Ministry of Rites, stating that the urgent letter is from the Ministry of Rites.

Looking at the date, it has been nearly 10 days, and even if I leave now, it will be too late. It's just that I didn't think much about it, and after putting it away, my mind moved, and another bamboo tube appeared in my hand.

I just stared at the small bamboo tube in my hand in a daze, I guessed whether I should look at this bamboo tube wrongly, because there are only two possibilities for the origin of this bamboo tube, one is the will of the old emperor, and the other is the person who wants to win me over.

Then the people who will win me over are none other than a few princes. Because of the people who can do things in the eight-hundred-mile urgency, one is only the old emperor, who has already ordered it before the death of the immortal, and the other is the more powerful prince.

The prince bribed the people of the Ministry of Rites through the Ministry of Rites, and when he put the urgent mail, he put the letter in.

After a moment of silence, I decided to open it and take a look, anyway, the initiative is in my hands, and I don't worry about anything!

When the bamboo tube is opened, there is a letter with a letter stamp, and in addition to the fire paint, there is a special symbol on the seal.

My heart moved, this symbol was only known to the old emperor and me. Because this is a token given to me by the old emperor, and although I didn't see the token at this time, this symbol says it all.

I opened the letter and looked at it carefully.

Half a ring, I was stunned after reading the letter!

Judging from the content of this letter, it is not an exaggeration to call it a will, but I know a piece of information that perhaps everyone in the imperial dynasty does not know, that is, the fifth prince is not the son of the old emperor.

And this matter was only noticed after the outbreak of the old emperor's toxin! So in the confusion, I asked someone close to me to help write this letter, mainly saying that the token was invalid.

If possible, let me leave the line of the eldest prince as the continuation of the last bloodline of the old emperor, and kill the rebellious five princes to help the old emperor take revenge.

This is also the reason why I was stunned, it turns out that the emperor also has a time when he is cuckolded, so the mother concubine of the fifth prince has been lurking around the old emperor, so this is terrible!

But think about it, since it can be poisoned, how can someone who is not the old emperor's personal person do it!

Shaking his head, he put these things behind him for now. The first thing to do now is etiquette, since the imperial dynasty held a state funeral, then as Feixi County, you can't pretend not to know.

I then walked out of the tent and shouted at the people outside, "I'll go out for a few days, you should be trained and don't be lazy." ”

The training soldier looked at me, nodded, and went on training.

It's just that my roar has brought the messenger to the people!

"General, I don't know if you're going to the big camp or?"

"I'll go back to the county town first, you go back first, let the guards who deliver urgent mail go to the county guard mansion tomorrow to find me, and let Zhuge Jin arrange someone to guide the way!" At this time, I still had the heart to ink with them, and waved at them and said.

Then my whistle sounded.

Then a low tiger roar sounded.

Immediately after that, the white light flashed, and Xiaobai landed steadily under the high platform.

I turned over directly, sat on Xiaobai's back, patted Xiaobai's back, and said to go to the county guard's mansion, and then Xiaobai strung out with all his limbs.

Nearly an hour later, under Xiaobai's full gallop, he successfully entered the county town, and then walked towards the county guard's mansion.

At the gate of the county guard's mansion, the guards on both sides stood straight and guarded, meticulous.

Seeing me riding in Xiaobai, he knelt down on one knee and shouted to the county guard.

I nodded and asked, "Gongsun Ce is not in the mansion?"

"Go back to your lordship, Gongsun went out early in the morning, and I haven't returned yet. One of the guards guarding the door replied loudly.

"You hurry up and go in and inform the people, let them go and find Gongsun Ce quickly, and let him immediately put down what he is doing and go to the county guard mansion to find me, no matter what he does." "After saying that, I rode Xiaobai into the county guard's mansion.

After arranging Xiaobai, he walked directly into the reception hall and waited.

In less than an hour, Gongsun Ce ran back in a hurry, and looked at the dust on the shoes on his feet, and it seemed that he had run out of the county.

"Boss, why are you back?, what's the matter, you got me back in such a hurry!" said Gongsun Ce at this time.

"Sit down, sit down, take a sip of tea first, and see how gasping you are!" I waved my hand and motioned for Gongsun Ce to sit down and speak.

After slowing down for a while, and seeing that Gongsun Ce's chest did not rise and fall so much, I thought about it, took out the bamboo tube tied with the flowers, and threw it directly to Gongsun Ce.

Gongsun Ce glanced at it, and he almost knew what was going on without looking at it! Then he took the bamboo tube, opened the letter and read it.

After reading it, Gongsun Ce sighed and said, "Boss, what do you mean?"

I was silent for a moment and said, "All the people in Feixi County will pay tribute for 3 days, and all towns and counties will hang flowers for 3 days. Tomorrow there will be a festival on the square, and everyone in the county will come to pay respects!"

After hearing this, Gongsun Ce immediately got up and said, "Then do what you say, boss, I will go down to arrange it now, and Zhang Bang will announce that the old emperor has passed away." ”

"Hmm... By the way, inform the battalion at the front that the important personnel will come back together tomorrow, and all the military flags will be lowered. The training was canceled, and all except for the personnel on duty mourned for 3 days. ”

Gongsun Ce nodded after hearing this, indicating that he understood.

After Gongsun Ce left, I immediately called the housekeeper and instructed the housekeeper to take people to start tying flowers, dress up the county guard's mansion, and change everyone into plain clothes.

And with the operation of Gongsun Ce, the first thing was to publicize the list, and then distribute it, and in less than 2 hours, the entire Feixi County almost knew that the old emperor had passed away.

So the people basically consciously changed into plain clothes, and they all gathered in the town square and began to decorate together.

And the county town is even faster, when the announcement comes out, the news spreads, so there are fewer and fewer people on the street, and finally they all go back and start to decorate their homes.

So the whole county town was shrouded in an atmosphere of mourning.

In the central square of the county seat, many people dressed in plain clothes began to build a high platform for sacrifices. Many people also came to help silently with silent faces.

And Zhuge Jin, who was in the front battalion, also received my order, and immediately issued it, except for the weapons of the personnel on duty, all the soldiers' weapons were put into storage, and all training was suspended.

All meals are based on ingredients, and no killing is allowed. At the same time, all the flags were put away as a sign of mourning.

After dark, on the squares of various towns, including the squares of the county seats, the people consciously went out of their homes to participate in the memorial, and lit white wax in designated places to show their mourning.

As for me, I'm sitting in my room by myself, thinking about something. And these things are the things that will determine the path of my life later in life.
