Chapter 905: Closing the Coffin
It rained heavily overnight, and before dawn, the rain stopped.
Before dawn, the entire Jinling City was hung with white flags, and the people automatically wore black armbands, today is the day of the funeral of the eldest princess Baili Chang'an, and the people of Jinling City spontaneously took to the streets.
No one can forget the moment when the thieves forced the palace, Baili Chang'an, as the regent princess, stood in front of the palace gatehouse.
The eldest princess in red, as proud as she was, as noble as her, without the slightest hesitation or resentment, went to death calmly.
Such a righteousness, who in the world can be opposed?
The coffin is still parked in the princess's mansion, and the people of Jinling City are waiting spontaneously, no one is surrounding and disturbing, and the whole Jinling City seems to have fallen into a dead silence, without the slightest sound, so quiet that even the footsteps, children's cries, and even the sound of horses' hooves have disappeared on weekdays.
The whole city, silent.
Hundreds of officials, headed by Prime Minister Xie Ruhui, stayed in the outer courtyard and waited, making a big salute.
Baili Yuanjia walked slowly towards the inside, and finally stood in the main courtyard, looking at the coffin parked in the lobby, there was no sadness or joy on his face, the crying that should have been cried, the finish of what should have been said, and now all that is left is the sourness of the stomach and the promise to the imperial sister.
"Your Majesty!" Zi Yan was dressed in white and saluted respectfully.
Baili Yuanjia glanced at her, in the past, these two girls followed the imperial sister, and they had always been proud, He had cried, but now her eyes were red and swollen like walnuts, and even her voice was crying.
Even so, after crying, it is still stubborn and strong.
The slave of the eldest princess, even if it is dead, should be proud and follow the master......
The luxurious coffin, the gold lacquer depicts the dragon and the phoenix, and it is extremely luxurious.
The woman who is stunning in the world is lying quietly inside, dressed in red like fire as always, with delicate makeup on her face, but these eyes can no longer be opened.
Baili Yuanjia burned incense and sacrificed, then handed the incense to Zi Yan, slowly walked to the edge of the coffin, looked at the person lying in the coffin, his eyes were as calm as water, he stood there without saying a word, just watched quietly.
The entire lobby was so quiet that only the sound of flames devouring paper and ingots remained, and the occasional wind came in from outside, shaking the white candles and making a whirring sound.
The candle flame is faint, and the wind does not go out.
Zi Yan knelt in front of the brazier, her eyebrows and eyes drooped, and her expression was numb and she threw the ingots into the fire, as if she had gone to the three souls and seven spirits, and became a walking corpse.
"Before the royal sister left, did you say anything?" Baili Yuanjia knew to stand in place.
Zi Yan lowered her eyes, "No, not a word."
Everything that should be explained has been explained, so Baili Chang'an has nothing to say.
Baili Yuanjia smiled bitterly, stretched out his hand and gently stroked the gold paint depiction on the coffin, the dragon and the phoenix are all there, but from now on, heaven and man will be separated forever, and they will never see each other again, the most noble person in the world, after all, she is the only one left.
"Sister is really ruthless!" Baili Yuanjia said in a low voice, "I miss you in the future, but what should I do?"
No one can answer it anymore, so it is today, so it will be tomorrow, and it will be ...... All of them.
Zi Yan burned the ingots numbly, and she didn't cry anymore from beginning to end, but her eyes were ...... It's always red, if you can't help it, just look up at the sky, the master doesn't like the tears of the people below.
Yes, don't cry.
At the moment when the coffin was covered, the first thing that couldn't help it was Baili Yuanjia.
"Wait a minute!" Hundred miles of Yuan Jia rolled in his throat.
Liu Umbrella immediately stepped forward, "Your Majesty, don't miss the hour."
"I ......" Baili Yuanjia's eyes were red, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.
In the end, it was Liu Umbrella who waved the dust, "Cover the coffin!"
People die like a lamp goes out, and the coffin is sealed in the world.
"...... Start"
Spirit, out.
The people in the courtyard fell to their knees.
Baili Yuanjia is the emperor and is respected.
Baili Chang'an is the eldest princess, no matter how noble she is, she is only a minister, since ancient times, there is no reason for the king to send his courtiers to the funeral, so out of the princess's mansion, Baili Yuanjia stopped, he didn't even have the qualifications to help the imperial sister, so he could only stand there, watching the funeral guard of honor gradually drift away.
The white flags swayed in the wind, the elegy was sung, and the mighty guard of honor slowly walked towards the city gate along the main street of Jinling City.
At the place where the coffin was marching, the people fell to the ground one after another, knelt down and kowtowed, and shouted in unison, "Congratulations to the eldest princess, the eldest princess Chitose Chitose Chitose."
The sea of people is like a tide, and the sound vibrates the sky.
The city of Jinling was all here to send a hundred miles of Chang'an, including the civil and military officials behind, everyone was white, with a solemn expression, and followed the coffin towards the city gate.
Once, people all over the world scolded her for being a chicken Si Chen, a rare poisonous woman in the world, one by two, full of spurning for her, hating to pull her off the altar and trample her under her feet.
And now?
Zilan held the spiritual position and walked slowly on the edge of the coffin, her eyes red again and again, especially at the moment when the people in the city knelt down, she suddenly wanted to tell her master that all the pain seemed to have been rewarded?
Master, you see, this is the Jokhang world that you have worked hard to protect......
