Chapter 968: High Imitation Life Vase (8)
That night until the next day, the entire palace and the imperial capital were very busy, so busy that people could sense that something was wrong and knew that something big must have happened.
Those who have eyesight and do not have a high status.
It's already very interesting to start shutting down.
The next day, as soon as the sun rose, the news of Emperor Jin'an's death could no longer be stopped, and it spread completely.
The imperial capital was also under martial law
All the people were not allowed to go out.
Only the hundred officials and nobles can go out and enter the palace.
At this time, the crown prince and others had already joined forces to stabilize the palace inside and outside, and the other princes were too eager to prepare for the rebellion and forced the palace, so they didn't have time to contact the manpower and soldiers.
So after weighing it for a long time, I can only give up.
Other officials were similar, and could only give up the idea of seizing the heir, and temporarily recognized that the throne would be inherited by the crown prince.
However, recognizing the crown prince does not mean that they will not delve into the death of Emperor Jin An, especially the practice of the crown prince blocking everyone and not letting the officials or other princes and concubines take a look at His Majesty's remains.
It makes them feel that something is wrong.
The mood is quite dissatisfied.
Some even began to suspect that His Majesty's death might have another reason, that it might have been killed by them, or something like that.
As the situation became more and more out of control, no matter how much the queen wanted to cover up the reputation of Emperor Jin An after his death, she was not willing to let herself and her son be burdened with rumors suspected of killing the monarch, so after hesitating for a long time, she could only leave behind a few ministers and old princes who should not spread the news, and at the same time were more famous among the hundreds of officials and nobles and the clan, and others would believe in them.
Only took a few of them to see Emperor Jin An.
And then naturally, the princes and concubines outside were talking about it, and the few people inside who saw the remains of Emperor Jin An gasped, and asked in amazement why this was the case, the crown prince actually didn't have time to investigate in depth at this time, so it was difficult to give any explanation, but this appearance obviously couldn't be directly disclosed.
The few people who were invited in and allowed to see the remains of Emperor Jin An were not stupid, and they quickly nodded clearly.
went out to appease other officials, princes and concubines.
By the way, there is Ding Yun among them.
If there is a queen mother in the palace, of course, it is best to invite the queen mother to come over to see the appearance of Emperor Jin An, and then go to appease those concubines and palace maids, but there is no in the palace, and after thinking about it for a long time, the queen can only think of inviting the ancestor and concubine to come over, which should also have the same effect.
There is Ding Yun, the noble concubine, the royal family Zongzheng, as well as two prime ministers, a national duke, and a prince united to say to the outside world that there is no problem with the death of Emperor Jin An.
There is no doubt, it is an accident.
If you don't want to admit it, you can only admit it, and most people have already guessed it at this time.
Your Majesty's death may not be so bright.
It's hard to say, and I can't say it.
But in any case, the contradiction basically subsided, and then everything came according to the procedure, according to the procedure, began to ring the death knell, began to cry and arrange the state funeral.
The imperial mausoleum also has to hurry up and repair.
Use of labor to repair.
Emperor Jin An didn't expect that he would die so early, so although his imperial tomb began to be repaired more than ten years ago, he has not been in a hurry to repair, and he has only repaired half of it at this time, if it is still repaired at the past speed.
Then his coffin had to be parked in the palace for more than ten years.
Naturally, this is not possible.
So you have to hurry up and fix it quickly.
Even if it can't be completed in 49 days, it must be completed within a year and a half, otherwise it will drag on for too long, and I'm afraid it won't sound good to say.
Of course, these have nothing to do with Ding Yun, and the spirit guard and the like don't need her to be guarded by an elder who is several times higher than Emperor Jin An, she didn't appear again after participating in the mourning ceremony that all the officials and nobles and all the women and the crown prince herself had to attend.
As long as you stay in your palace and guard the country's filial piety.
This was also granted by the Empress and the Crown Prince.
Even the queen and the crown prince specially found a few imperial doctors to guard Ding Yun's palace, for fear that Ding Yun would have an accident, after all, if the hundred-year-old ancestor Rui in the palace was tossed and died because he wanted to attend the funeral of Emperor Jin An, not only did they not know what they would be scolded for, but it would also affect the reputation of Emperor Jin An.
In addition, Emperor Jin An's death was not particularly glorious, and it was not even easy to say the cause of death to the outside world, and in the end, the queen and the prince simply sent back all the old women and concubines who were over sixty years old.
The pregnant and weak were also sent back.
The right to pray for Emperor Jin An.
It is precisely because of this that this time the state funeral was quite peaceful, many ministers and nobles, including the wife, although they were tossed, but at least no one died, and in private they were still spreading the queen's mercy, the prince was benevolent, and he must be a benevolent monarch and so on.
Look, it's easy for the superior to be gracious.
It is a great favor to give his family a mourning for the undead.
After the end of the state funeral, there is a fixed process for the crown prince to ascend the throne, as well as to grace the world, the crown princess to the queen, the queen to the queen mother, and other concubines to the concubine and so on.
Ding Yun's side has already risen and cannot be promoted.
There has never been an example of a younger emperor helping a concubine of his ancestor to straighten out, so after the new emperor ascended the throne and changed Yuan Ronghua, he could only add some honorary titles and treatment to Ding Yun, and the position remained the same.
And allowed her to continue to live in Ci'an Palace.
His mother moved to Cining Palace.
Anyway, these two palaces are either for the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, or for the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, and now they don't have the Queen Mother, so it doesn't hurt to let the concubine continue to live.
But once there is another queen mother or something.
I'm afraid this matter will be troublesome.
After all, no matter how high Ding Yun's seniority is, she is only a concubine, not a queen, she is not a matter of course, and she lives in Ci'an Palace in the name of righteousness, but the emperor allows her to live.
This is also before the original body dies.
The main reason for this is still regretted.
……
With the completion of Emperor Ronghua's canonization and the end of the amnesty of the world, the rotation of the imperial throne is completely over, and the new empress dowager and the new emperor have the time to start a secret in-depth investigation to investigate what Emperor Jin An did before he died, and whether there will be any hidden circumstances in his death.
It's just that because it was secretly investigated, plus the insiders at the time, a batch was also cleaned up.
And Emperor Rong Hua has never thought in the direction of alchemy, so it is quite difficult to investigate.
Until he looked through the living records of the first emperor.
Then it was discovered that Qi He Zhenren also died violently.
Only then did I remember that it seemed that only these alchemists were chattering, and maybe they had anything to do with being thundered, and then I found the rest of the alchemy Taoists.
Ask them what they said to the Emperor at the end?
Does the death of the first emperor have anything to do with them?
And why did Qi He Zhenren suddenly die?
