On the third day of the third month of the first year of Dao, Emperor Taishang died.

The third day of the third month of March is the Shangsi Festival. But on this day, there are no more men and women in Kyoto who go out to the suburbs to visit spring, frolic on the riverside, and enjoy the willows and flowers. The mourning edict was sent to all provinces, and then sent to the state capitals and counties, and the people wept, among which there were those who pretended to cry and did not mourn, but most of the people showed real sorrow, and the old saint reigned for 378 years, and really did a lot of good things for the people, and the emperor who did good things for the people, people will really mourn for his departure. Perhaps this grief will not last long, but at least at this moment of mourning, people's feelings of grief are real.

There are also those whose grief is real and long-lasting.

Xiao Yan also has grief in her heart, but this grief is the grief of the death of a kind and respectful elder, but it does not hurt to the bone, unlike her mother.

Among all the people who were saddened by the death of the Emperor, her mother must be the saddest one.

She said: "The person who loves me the most in this world has gone. ”

The one who loves me the most......

Xiao Yan looked at her mother, tears streaming down her eyes.

The death of the Emperor Taishang, for her mother, is not only the departure of a father, but also the person who loves her the most, indulges her the most, gives her the warmest and broadest chest, the most solid and powerful back, and gives her the most wanton life in this world - forever gone.

The Emperor said, "The deceased is gone, but the living are still alive." ”

"Live well, live happily, live willfully."

This was the only thing the Emperor expected of his favorite child.

Li Yixun's tears rained down.

"Auntie."

Xiao Yan's hands pressed on his mother's shoulders, making her mother's silent trembling body cling to her chest.

She is already a head taller than her mother, her soft and warm chest is not broad, but it is firm and powerful, like a tall mountain, and like a thick earth, giving the most reassuring support, she said: "Auntie, I will love you very much." ”

I will love you and indulge you like my grandfather, so that you will always have the best years and live a willful and wanton life.

Li Yixun looked at the moon above Ningshou Palace, with pain in his eyes, "The most helpless thing in life is the person who loves you the most, and he will eventually leave you, and life and death will be separated from ......."

To go is to go, and there can never be a second one, which can be replaced.

"Baoshu, if you meet the person who loves you the most in your life, no matter who it is, don't regret it after the Yellow Springs are separated."

“…… Be. After a long time, Xiao Yan replied slowly.

On the first day of April, on the 27th day of the death of Emperor Taishang of Daxing, the Chinese military officials and the military and civilian people in Beijing were full of national filial piety, and began to visit relatives and friends in addition to their plain clothes, and lived a normal life. The grief of losing the emperor is left in the hearts of relatives and friends.

On the morning of the second day of the fourth lunar month, Shen Qingyi set off to return to the Daomen, and under the escort of Shen Guiyuan and the Grandmaster of the Cave True Realm of the Infinite View, he rode out of Chang'an from the west gate in an earthquake-proof four-wheeled carriage.

Xiao Yan was not able to send her. Although she is only the grandson of the emperor, like the subjects in Beijing, she can visit relatives and friends after the 27th day of mourning, but she still has to serve her grandfather for a small service in May, but she is not afraid to travel, but Xiao Yan is not in the mood, one is because her mother needs to mourn for the emperor for 36 days, and the other is that her mother is still in grief and is in a very bad mood, how can Xiao Yan be in the mood to go out?

She just sent someone to send a letter to Shen Qingyi, explaining her regret at parting.

Shen Qingyi didn't feel particularly sorry for this, saying goodbye is always a shocking thing, if you don't see it, it's better. What's more, the parting is for the goodbye of his day, and she can bear it and wait.

The carriage traveled smoothly on the smooth official road, and the wide carriage was covered with soft brocade mattresses, so that people did not feel tired at all when sitting on the carriage. Shen Qingyi leaned on the hidden sac, his eyes looked through the half-open glass window, looking at the wildflowers on the side of the road outside the car, swaying in the spring breeze, stretching the flowers to his heart's content, and gradually the clear eyes also seemed to be rendered by the flowers, reflecting a beautiful brilliance.

Her fingers caressed a long box on her lap.

The box is fragrant yellow sandalwood, commonly known as yellow rosewood, is the royal tribute sandalwood of Qiongzhou Island, Lingnan West Road, compared with the precious and deep red sandalwood, unique elegant and indifferent temperament. Xiao Yan felt that it was very suitable for Shen Qingyi.

What was in the box was the "My Favorite Spring Flower" that Xiao Yan promised to give to Shen Qingyi.

Bai Su silently glanced at his master's fingers gently rubbing on the long box, and this always steady maid couldn't help biting the handkerchief in her heart.

The master is touching again, touching again.

In the view, I watched day and night; When you travel, you have to carry it to the car, hold it, and touch it.

…… It's fascinating.

Bai Su burst into tears in his heart.

What about her calm, sensible, and wise master? Give it back to her.

On April 13, Xiao Yan sent her mother, Princess Anping, who went to Beijing for funeral, to leave Beijing and return to Hexi.

At the tenth time of the first month, the royal children mourned for the emperor for thirty-six days, according to the system do not need to go to the Zigong Palace to cry sooner or later, and then two years and eleven months of filial piety is to keep the system at home, the eldest princess of Anping as the Duchess of Liangguo, the main mother of the Lanling Xiao family, since she can not stay in Beijing for a long time, only stayed in Beijing for three days after the funeral, saw the brother who had not seen her for many years, talked to the sisters, and left Beijing.

Seeing off together, there were also Li Yihong, the half-brother of the eldest princess of Anping, the king of Wei, as well as the eldest princess of Anfu, the eldest princess of Ankang, the eldest princess of Anhe, the eldest princess of Xindu, the eldest princess of An Changchang, the eldest princess of Shanggu, the eldest princess of Fangling, the eldest princess of Jiaguo and other sisters, except for Li Yixun, who did not come to see her off. Of course, this is what the eldest princess of Anping meant. Li Yixun said that she still has a lot of sisterly love for her third sister. The eldest princess of Anping said, I want to beat you when I see you, don't come to me to be an eyesore. When parting, she said to the sisters that when her father's filial piety period had passed, she would return to Beijing to beat Li Shenyou. All the sisters unanimously expressed their strong support. I've been wanting to put her sack for a long time, okay? Look at the imperial father when he was dying, he told her to "live well, live happily, and live willfully", which is simply a blow to their hearts...... Gotta beat her! Even the mild-mannered King Wei nodded silently.

Xiao Yan wiped sweat in his heart when he listened to it.

What kind of anger did A-Niang commit?

Fortunately, my eldest brother and second brother didn't think about beating her.

saw Anping's mother turn her face, raised her eyebrows and looked at her and said, "Good baby, go back and tell your mother, wait a minute." ”

Uncle Wei Wang and all the aunts couldn't help laughing, and even the sorrow and parting feelings in their hearts were scattered.

Only Xiao Yan: "......"

Did she say it or not?

Also, she really doesn't call her a "good baby".

On the tenth day of the first month of April, Li Yuzhen had already disobeyed the court. But she still follows the practice of the Tang Emperor from the time of Gaozong, in addition to the sacrifice, Zhengdan and state banquets, and the military inspection, other times of the dynasty and government are tied with a white belt around the waist to show filial piety, until three years.

During this period of time, the government was very stable, there was no major event in Beijing, and the three newly appointed deputy ministers also began to take office, all of them were in order, and the solemn and sad atmosphere had dissipated in the sky over Chang'an, ushering in the busyness of the early summer season.

On April 11, Cui Xizhen, a servant of the sect, wrote a letter to beg and asked for a minister.

The emperor approved it, and gave the post of the third prince to the prince.

The Three Princes are the highest positions of the ministers, the Tang Dynasty takes the Three Princes as the highest honor, and the ministers are all honored to be given the Three Princes, and the Taishi is the head of the Three Princes, which shows that the emperor's kindness to Cui Xi has not changed because of the death of the Emperor.

The next day, Cui Xizhen resigned from the public throne of the country again, and asked the prince Cui Guangbi to take the throne.

This is the official retirement from the position of head of the family.

The emperor gave his way.

According to the system of the Tang Dynasty's demotion to attack the lord, Cui Guangbi should attack the county duke. The specific edict was Li Yuzhen, who took Shu County as the county seal and gave him the title of Shu County, which was actually called Shu County Duke.

Shu County is the name of the county of Chengdu Prefecture, and it is ranked among the rich state capitals of the Tang Dynasty, although the kings and knights of the Tang Dynasty have no fiefs, and the food is also fictitious, and they are not subject to the taxes of the feudal households, and only pay silver money according to the number of households in the "real food seal", so for the knights, whether they are rich counties or poor counties has no impact on Juelu at all. However, whether it is a rich county or a poor county, whether it is an important county in the empire or a remote and barren county, reflects the emperor's affection, likes and dislikes, and whether he trusts you.

Li Yuzhen's edict to seal Shu County shows that she values the Cui clan of Qinghe, and it has not weakened with Cui Xizhen's resignation.

The next day, an edict was issued, and Zuo Qing and Jiang Guogong Xie were removed from the subordinate servants and led the minister.

At the same time, Shao Chonglian, the secretary of the Chinese book, was appointed as the secretary of the Chinese government. ——This is a step forward in the order of the deputy minister: the order of the Zhongshu Zuoqing is before the subordinate Zuoqing. In terms of position, Zhongshu is in charge of policymaking, his subordinates are in charge of review, and Shangshu is in charge of implementation, and the core of central government affairs lies in policymaking, so Shao Chonglian is obviously in progress.

Li Yuzhen also moved to the left of the door with the right secretary of the door and the prince of Wen Guo. The order and the weight of the position have been taken one step further.

Li Yuzhen expressed with her practical actions: loyal to me, support me, lonely will not be disappointed.

This phase move did not cause any fluctuations, after all, it was adjusted in the political hall and did not involve the new prime minister.

And not long after the adjustment of the political hall, the peace in the court was broken.

The reason was that on April 17, when the Zichen Palace held a court meeting, Su Shaowei, the right secretary of the Ministry of Industry, made a recital, which caused an uproar.

Su Shaowei's recital is:

-- "Building a Railroad to Innovate Traffic Transportation".

As soon as the court heard it, it exploded.

Li Yuzhen listened indifferently to the quarrel in the court.

There are good reasons for opposing and supporting.

Of course, this kind of recital, which involves heavy dà, did not produce a result at the court meeting.

The real game is outside the court.
