Historical records: On the twenty-fifth day of August in the Jingchao November, the Fengguo court was dressed in linen clothes, held a state funeral, and after the solemn sacrifice and prayer, the Chengde Emperor supported the spirit, and sent the coffin of the Empress Dowager to the imperial mausoleum and was buried with the Emperor Taizu.

Originally, not long after breaking through Tianlu City, killing Yaoqian, and destroying the bandits, some ministers requested to hold a sacrificial prayer ceremony, and the Empress Dowager had been in the coffin for nine years, so she should comfort the Empress Dowager as soon as possible and enter the earth as soon as possible.

But He Yue had other plans in mind, so he delayed again and again, but Feng Ran was always fighting outside, and the battle situation was unstable, until the Feng army hit the south bank of the Dou River, and temporarily suppressed the vanguard army of the Eastern Road Barbarian Army in the middle of Fenghe Kingdom, He Yue couldn't resist the urging of the ministers, and forcibly recalled Feng Ran back to Chenghua City.

To give the Empress Dowager a sacrifice and burial, the emperor had to summon the generals who were fighting abroad, regardless of the war situation, and hurriedly summoned them back, and the ministers felt faintly uneasy in their hearts.

Emperor Chengde said that it was General Feng who risked his life to rescue the body of the Empress Dowager from under the gatehouse, avoiding the possibility that the Empress Dowager would be humiliated and ruined by Yaojia thieves after her death, and preserving the posthumous dignity of the Empress Dowager. Later, it was General Feng who worked hard and lonely, planned and planned, strategized, and personally charged into battle, fighting vertically and horizontally, and only then did the soldiers surround Tianlu City, kill the thieves of Yaoqian, and avenge the blood and sea of revenge for the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager's sacrifice and burial ceremony, how could there be no participation of General Feng?

The ministers had nothing to say, nothing to refute.

The Empress Dowager's sacrificial ceremony was held very grandly, and it was carried out in a decent manner all the way, but in the middle of the royal family and the ministers to the Empress Dowager incense, there was a little accident.

According to the rules, after the emperor is incense, it should be the queen mother, the queen, the grandson of the emperor, and then according to the distance of the bloodline, the emperor's uncles and ancestors are incense, and after the male guests finish the ceremony, they are the concubines of the same generation as the queen mother, the concubines of the later generation, and then the emperor's concubines. The princess who has been married is incense with her husband's official rank, and is not ranked in the royal family. When the royal sacrifice is finished, it is the prince with a different surname, and the prince with a different surname is also incense according to the rank of the king, and the princess is with him, and the princes with different surnames are finished with the incense, and then it is the turn of the ministers. Before the ministers, the princes of the royal family were all alone or several to the empress dowager incense salute, to the ministers, that is, the ministers according to the rank of the ministers, one by one to the empress dowager incense salute. After all, the number of royal princes is limited, and there are too many ministers, so they all have to go to the incense one by one, but they are afraid that they will not be able to finish it in one day, so they will be one grade at a time, and the ministers of the same rank will go to the incense and salute together.

After Emperor Chengde finished offering the first incense, he stood aside, followed by the Queen Mother. After the queen mother, it should have been the queen incense. However, after the death of Empress Mi Shu, Emperor Chengde did not marry a new queen no matter how the ministers advised, nor did he choose one of the harem concubines to become the queen, and Emperor Chengde's middle palace has been vacant.

If there is no queen, the next step is to incense your sons and grandchildren.

Although Fenghe Xiangxiang was passed to Feng Ran and changed his surname, Fenghe Xiangxiang was not removed from the He family tree, he was born to Queen Mi Shu, and he was still a concubine, and he was always led by Feng Ran, standing behind the Queen Mother, ready to incense.

The attendant who was in charge of the salute was about to call out his eldest son to offer incense to the Empress Dowager, but when he saw Emperor Chengde waving his hand at him, he paused for no reason and swallowed back the praise. The salute suddenly stopped, and everyone didn't know why, and looked at the incense case together.

I saw Emperor Chengde take three sticks of incense and walked up to the Feng father and son. Feng He rang loudly, and someone had already handed over the incense in his hand, and he was ready. Everyone saw that the emperor handed the incense to General Feng and said, "You first give incense to the imperial grandmother, and then Xiang'er." ”

As soon as Emperor Chengde said this, there was a dead silence in the incense hall! Calling General Feng to offer incense after the Queen Mother and before his sons and grandsons was the queen's position! Calling a man and calling a general to offer incense to the Empress Dowager in the position where she should have been the queen is self-evident!

The emperor and the general hooked up, pulled and pulled, and the unclear relationship was well known, but fortunately, the emperor and the general were limited to private, and everyone looked at what the emperor liked, and for the sake of the general's great achievements, they just opened their eyes and closed their eyes. However, at the funeral ceremony for the Empress Dowager, the emperor openly asked the general to offer incense before his son-in-law, in order to make his relationship with the general public.

It is too disqualified and rude to have such an ugly thing in the ceremony of solemnly paying tribute to the Empress Dowager in the court.

The Queen Mother reacted the fastest, and with an arrow step in front of Feng Ran, she pointed behind Feng Ran with a cold face, and ordered in a condescending tone: "General Feng, stand back where you should stand!"

Feng Ran also felt that he had incense before his son-in-law, which was a big violation of etiquette, he was a courtier, and then he was super grade, and his position should also be ranked after the prince. Before Feng Ran could react for a while, he felt that Emperor Decheng next to him pulled his arm and fixed him firmly in front of the Queen Mother. There is the queen mother in front of the road, and the emperor on the side pulls the pull, and he can't enter or retreat.

He Yue looked directly at the Queen Mother, and said in a half-pleading and half-tough tone: "The Queen Mother, the matter between the sons and the General Feng should be reported to the Imperial Grandmother in front of the spirit." The meaning of this sentence is more of a statement than to seek the opinion of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother turned pale and said hurriedly: "Everyone below is looking at it! You are the emperor, you are shameless, and I still have face in Fengguo!"

"Erchen just likes a person, is willing to spend his life with him, bring him to the imperial grandmother to see, what's shameless?"

The emperor and the court generals messed together, and they had to ask how to be shameless, this topic was too long and too far, to talk about debate, there would be no result in debating for a few days and nights, and now at the sacrificial ceremony, it is not suitable to debate, the queen mother turned white in a hurry, and said: "Bring this...... People come to offer incense, your imperial grandmother has already died, do you want to anger her again?

He Yue said: "When the imperial grandmother was alive, she knew about her grandson and General Feng, and she was sympathetic to the imperial grandmother, and she did not object to her grandson getting along with General Feng. Therefore, the sons and daughters made their own opinions, and the general led the wind to meet the imperial grandmother with Sun Li. General Feng also took on the role of avenging the imperial grandmother, and asked General Feng to worship the imperial grandmother as a son, which was just the right way to comfort the imperial grandmother's spirit in the sky. ”

When the Empress Dowager was alive, she really did not object to Fengyue, but the Empress Dowager understood the relationship between Fengyue and Fengyue as Fengye is a male pet raised by He Yue, and she is naturally too lazy to care about such a trivial matter as raising a male pet for her grandson, and she is too lazy to ask, where is the meaning of agreeing that Fengyue is good?

The Empress Dowager felt that her emperor's son insisted on saying this, which was just clever words, strong words, and deliberately misinterpreting the meaning of the Empress Dowager! However, for a while, she could not find the words to refute it, not to mention that at the sacrificial ceremony, the Empress Dowager directly quarreled with the emperor in front of all the ministers, which was really not good-looking. The Queen Mother turned to Feng Ran and said lightly: "General Feng, please measure yourself!" As the emperor, her son is not good for the Queen Mother to face her son in front of the ministers, but this one next to her, no matter how good she is with her son, her identity is also a general, she is a courtier, and she wants to give her son face, so she doesn't have to be polite to the courtiers. Therefore, the queen mother's soft voice was full of threat, full of royal momentum, and full of royal coercion on the courtiers.

Feng Ran remembered that as early as last autumn, He Yue had mentioned to himself that he would take him to worship the Empress Dowager. At that time, Kazeran casually agreed. As a non-ranking general in the court, he is naturally qualified to participate in the sacrifice of the Queen Mother, and Feng Ran agreed at the time, and he didn't think much about it. During the sacrifice, he was suddenly pulled out by He Yue and asked him to insert himself into the position that should have been the queen, before his son-in-law and grandson, and listened to the dispute between He Yue and the queen mother, Feng Ran then understood what He Yue meant by taking himself to meet the imperial grandmother!

The Queen Mother suddenly turned the spearhead to herself, and Feng Ran only felt that He Yue was holding the crook of his arm tightly, and he was pinched tightly, as if he was going to break his bones. No matter how powerful Feng Ran is, his public identity is just a courtier after all, and he can't be as arrogant as He Yue. In Feng Ran's heart, he and He Yue have been getting along for more than ten years, supporting each other, he has already been one with He Yue, He Yue did not hesitate to fight with the Queen Mother at the Empress Dowager's sacrificial ceremony for him, Feng Ran knew that he couldn't coax and couldn't drag He Yue's hind legs. At this moment, if he is cowardly, he will no longer have the face and qualifications to stand shoulder to shoulder with He Yue, and he will not be able to afford He Yue's liking for him!

The wind can't enter or retreat, so he only lowered his head slightly, and said respectfully: "The son begs the queen mother to ......."

In this world, only the queen can be the same as the emperor, calling herself "son-in-law" to the queen mother, calling the queen mother "queen mother", indicating that their relationship is mother-son-in-law, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, even if it is the emperor's favorite concubine, they can only call themselves "concubines" to the queen mother, call the queen mother "queen mother", and indicate that their relationship is that of master and servant.

Because only the queen of the main palace can be regarded as the daughter-in-law of the He family, only the queen of the main palace can be written into the genealogy of the He family, and only the queen of the main palace can enter the temple after death to be worshiped by the descendants. Those concubines are equivalent to concubines, and they are just descendants of noble status, used to inherit the bloodline, and spread branches for the emperor's family. The identity of the concubine and the queen is very different, and the title is also clear, and there is no fault in the slightest. The male pet who was included in the harem, the status was even lower than that of the concubine, and it was just a plaything of the emperor on a whim, so humble that he was not even allowed to enter the door of the ancestral hall of the temple.

Feng Ran, the general in the court, a man, dared to openly call himself a "son" to himself in the sacrificial temple, openly called himself a "queen mother", sang and made a harmony with the emperor, did not retreat, only angry that the queen mother's face was blue and black, and he couldn't help it anymore, he was furious, and without waiting for Feng Ran to finish speaking, he said sharply: "Stop!" At the same time, he was furious, and subconsciously waved a palm, and slapped Feng Ran in the face!
