Chapter Twenty-Eight

One

Norito stood on top of the main hall in high spirits.

Looking around, the civil and military ministers stood solemnly at their feet.

Dengli's eyes were like torches, and he said in a cold tone: "The country cannot be without a king for a day. The first Khan died, and Ben Khan inherited his will, succeeded to the throne as Khan, and canonized the servant Gu Shi Ronglan as the queen. ”

Long live the Khan of the Ministers' Mountain.

Dengli Khan gestured slowly.

The maid brought out Rong Lan, who was dressed as a queen, from the side.

Rong Lan was wearing a court dress, wearing a golden double phoenix hairpin ring, and a plain silk flower on her sideburns, bright and bright, with unlimited honor.

Unexpectedly, it can have the status of today's mother in the world. Rong Lan was in a trance.

Dengli took Rong Lan's hand, and the husband and wife looked at each other and smiled, and walked hand in hand to the throne that symbolized power and glory.

Dengli sat down in the center, and Rong Lan sat down on the side.

Dengli paused and continued: "In addition, the widow of the first khan, except for the queen, according to the ancestral regulations, the position of the lady of each palace remains unchanged. ”

Rong Lan's heart shook slightly. In other words, those women in the harem are their husband's concubines from now on. For no reason, there are more women, how not to be annoyed by sharing their husband's favor.

Rong Lan glanced sideways slightly, her husband at this time was no longer comparable to the submissive man in the past. He is full of ambition, reigns over the world, and is already the monarch of a country. As a monarch with the four seas, how can he be willing to be the only woman she is?

To be an honorable queen comes at a price. The price of this is that you have to get used to competing for favor with more women in the future.

Fortunately, in the harem, those broken flowers and willows have almost no lethality, and they will not be interested in their husbands.

Rong Lan continued to maintain a dignified smile on her face.

Dengli glanced at the bottom of the stairs and said, "As for why the first queen is excluded, I think everyone has heard of it. The first khan loved the queen deeply, and the couple were so affectionate that they couldn't bear to separate, so they ordered the queen to be martyred, which is also her honor. ”

Don Mohe stepped forward and said: "Qiyu Khan, Mrs. Qingmei is sad when she hears that the Khan has died, and she has already hanged herself in the Qingde Palace. ”

The crowd was taken aback.

Dengli was slightly stunned and sighed: "I can't imagine that Mrs. Qingmei is so affectionate, it's really commendable." Since she lived up to the first Khan, this Khan fulfilled her heart. Named her Mrs. Jieyi, buried in the mausoleum with the first Khan, and enjoyed the sacrifice at four o'clock, so that she would accompany her through the ages, and her name would remain forever. Under the spring of father's sweat, with the queen and Mrs. Jieyi, two confidantes, he should not be lonely. ”

Don Mohe said: "That's very good. Mrs. Qingmei also deserved to die. ”

The ministers whispered and admired.

Dengli waited for the ministers to be calm for a while, and said: "The big event has been decided, after the next dynasty, everyone will mourn according to the uniform, only wait for three days after the spirit is stopped, and the funeral ceremony will be performed for the first Khan." ”

The minister of the Ministry of Rites played: "The first Khan Yan drove and the new Khan ascended the throne, according to the etiquette law, it should be reported to the Tang Emperor, and it is only appropriate to wait for the title." ”

Dengli said: "At this time, let's follow the rules." After the burial of the first Khan, he immediately sent an envoy to Chang'an to pay his respects. ”

The Hui is a subject state of the Tang Dynasty, and the new khan must be officially titled by the Tang Emperor in order to be recognized by the Hui people and his position will be stable.

Dengli looked at the prime minister Dede in the crowd and said, "Lord Dide, Ben Khan has something to say. ”

Emperor had been waiting tremblingly for a long time.

He knew in his heart that he was Ye Hu's father-in-law, and he had a close relationship with Ye Hu, and he had always suppressed Dengli, and now that Dengli succeeded to the throne, he would definitely not let him go.

Ye Hu's death, he also had a lot of doubts in his heart, but he was already in the boat, and he was powerless to return to the sky, so he had to close the door to thank the guests, but to protect himself.

At this time, despite hiding behind the crowd, he was called out by Dengli.

Dide thought to himself, wondering if he would be able to escape today.

Dengli said with a pleasant face: "Last time I went west with the old man, the adult was seriously injured, I don't know how he recovered?" ”

Di Decheng said with trepidation: "Xie Khan cares, the external injury has healed, but his spirit is not as good as before. ”

Dengli said with a smile: "The old man is old, and the state affairs are tired, and it is time to retire in his old age." ”

Dide heard the meaning of Dengli's words, and hurriedly said: "The old minister has been dizzy recently, short of breath, and is returning to the fields and forests to tell the old man to return to his hometown. ”

Dengli smiled and said: "In this case, it is the sin of Ben Khan to make the adults work on state affairs again. From now on, you are allowed to resign and retire to enjoy the joy of family. ”

Dide knelt down and thanked him and said, "The old minister is grateful. Sweat broke out on his forehead, and he thought to himself, after all, there was no danger.

Dengli said: "There is one more thing to discuss with the boss. ”

Dide said: "The Khan's command is enough. ”

Dengli said: "That day, the first Khan left his will, I don't know if the old man was present?" ”

Dide said: "The old minister is here." ”

Dengli said: "In this case, I think you also know. The first Khan will give love to Ben Khan, do you have any objections? ”

Dide sobbed and said: "The little girl is gone, and she has to be taken care of by the Khan, so that she can rely on her for life, which is her blessing, and it is also the heart of the first Khan to the little girl, and the old minister is grateful, and there is no objection."

Dengli said with satisfaction: "Then, choose a good day, and Ben Khan will take her into the palace." Don't worry, I won't treat her badly. ”

The marriage system upheld by Hui is monogamous, and ordinary people are not allowed to occupy more women. Only the khans and nobles will have more women. In the eyes of the Hui people, women are a resource, a tool for generating children, and cannot be wasted. Therefore, this kind of step-marriage system, which is very absurd in the eyes of the Han people, is reasonable here.

The crown princess Anya, virtuous and virtuous, with a beautiful appearance, how can Dengli not take it to heart. It is also for this reason that Dengli is generous to Dide.

Rong Lan was on the side, very embarrassed. I thought to myself, didn't I covet the crown princess Anya for a long time? Today, above the court, in front of the public, they actually talked about other people's daughters.

That Anya is a fierce enemy. Rong Lan secretly hated.

Dengli said loudly to the ministers: "Lord Dide has retired, the post of prime minister cannot be vacant, from now on, General Don Mohe will succeed him as prime minister, do you have any objections?" ”

All the ministers said in unison: "The Khan is wise. ”

Don Mohe stepped forward to thank him.

Dengli smiled and said, "Qing does not live up to me, I live up to Qing." "The implication is that you helped me, and I kept my promise.

Don Mohe breathed a long sigh of relief, and his heart was extremely excited.

From then on, it is a first-class minister under one person and above ten thousand people, as long as he grasps the military power, given time, his ambition is just around the corner.

Two

At night, Dengli, as a khan, stayed in Zhengyang Palace for the first time.

Rong Lan looked at the wide hall and the gorgeous decorations, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the Khan, who has now entered the royal court." ”

Dengli drank a few glasses of wine and said with a smile: "After many years of forbearance, I finally have today, which is really gratifying." ”

Rong Lan pouted and said, "But my Fengyi Palace is still occupied by that woman." ”

Dengli smiled: "It's only two days. You let her for a few days. Two days later, she was buried, and this harem is your world. ”

Rong Lan smiled slightly: "The three of us married into Hui Hui together, but I didn't expect that I, the woman with the most humble status, finally stepped on their heads." ”

Dengli stretched out his hand to pick up Rong Lan's chin and said, "As the queen, are you satisfied?" ”

Rong Lan said angrily: "I'm afraid it's you who is more satisfied." Now that there are so many more women, I am afraid that I will forget about the concubines in a few days. ”

Dengli smiled: "Those old women of Father Khan, I am not interested in them at all. It's just that this is the rule, otherwise, who do these women rely on? You can't get out. ”

Rong Lan hugged Dengli's neck and said, "So, what about Crown Princess Anya?" Aren't you interested either? ”

Dengli smiled: "Brother and brother, this is my duty." Don't be jealous, in short, they will all be under your control in the future, you tell them to be obedient and serve me well, and I will not favor them for half a point. ”

Rong Lan said coquettishly: "You have to remember what you said." You can't favor other women. ”

Dengli smiled, put Rong Lan on the bed, and said, "I only love you, okay?" ”

Rong Lanwan smiled and said shyly: "Be careful of the child in my belly." ”

Three

Early in the morning, Rong Lan was woken up by the sound of birds.

On the flower tree outside the window, a tree of sparrows chirping.

Rong Lan turned over and found that Dengli had gotten up at some point.

The maid said: "The khan has already left, for fear of waking you up, and he is dressed lightly and skillfully." Khan treats you so well. ”

Rong Lan lay happily on the wide big bed, thinking, wouldn't it be a pity if she didn't show off such happiness.

Rong Lan instructed: "Find me elegant clothes, I want to dress up beautifully." ”

The maid asked, "Is the queen going to see someone important?" ”

Rong Lan smiled: "It's an old man who is dying, so I always have to visit it, so as not to leave regrets." ”

The old man Rong Lan said was the princess of Ningguo.

Princess Ningguo was trapped in the deep palace, unaware that she was about to face the threat of death.

All she could think of was that after Dengli ascended the throne, the most she could do was to snub herself.

When Rong Lan appeared in front of her in gorgeous clothes, she was not surprised at all. This woman, stripped of her dignity, will also stripped of her hope.

What should come, will come.

The most proud person today will naturally not let go of the opportunity to ridicule himself.

Since she didn't follow Rong Lan's intention and drugged the green plum tea, Princess Ning Guo knew that Rong Lan would not let herself go.

Princess Ning Guo was very calm at this time. Although the unknown fate is bumpy, I always have to face it.

"Now, I think I'm already the queen. I'm already a forbidden place here, so it's hard for you to still want to come to see me. "Princess Ningguo is neither humble nor arrogant.

Rong Lan looked at Princess Ning Guo with a smile, as if she was looking at a clown.

"It's always a sister, if I don't come to see you, who will come to see you." Rong Lan sat down by herself, "Now, is there any place I can't go?" A few guards, do you dare to stop me? ”

Princess Ning Guo said in disgust: "If you come to show off your honorable status, I have seen it, you can go back." ”

Rong Lan didn't move at all, and said with a smile: "I'm not angry with you, I can't do it." Now, I really want to have a good word with you, and in the future, I'm afraid I won't have a chance. ”

Princess Ning Guo said coldly: "Don't speculate for more than half a sentence, there's nothing to say." ”

Rong Lan raised her eyebrows and said, "Also, what is there to talk about a person who is about to die." ”

Princess Ning Guo was stunned and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Rong Lan changed the topic and said, "Sister doesn't know yet, Qingmei has already hanged herself." ”

Princess Ning Guo said angrily: "You killed her? ”

Rong Lan said lightly: "She and the Khan are very affectionate, and they can't give up their kindness, so they are willing to die and follow the Khan, which is really a touching story." Now, she has been named the Lady of Jieyi and will be buried with the Khan tomorrow. A servant girl, who ends up like this, can also be regarded as a mourning after death. ”

Princess Ningguo pointed at Rong Lan and scolded: "You poisonous woman." You killed Qingmei, one corpse and two lives, and you didn't accumulate some yin virtue for the child in your womb. ”

Rong Lan smiled: "You don't hurt anyone, where is your yin virtue?" You have killed three husbands, have you harmed fewer people? ”

Princess Ning Guo was speechless.

Rong Lan said contemptuously: "Do you think Dengli will still want you?" You don't want to continue to kill my husband. ”

Princess Ningguo trembled with anger and said, "You." Wait for me to repair a book and dedicate it to my father, and cure your father for the sins of teaching his daughter. ”

Rong Lan laughed: "I came to see you, for the sake of nostalgia, I didn't expect you to still look like this." When you are dying, you still want to sue? ”

Princess Ning Guo said: "Do you still want to kill me?" What a guts. ”

Rong Lan stood up and circled around Princess Ningguo, her eyes were strange.

Princess Ning Guo said, "What are you looking at?" ”

Rong Lan smiled: "I remember my sister's appearance well." After tomorrow, I will never see you again. ”

Princess Ning Guo was puzzled: "What are you going to do tomorrow?" ”

Rong Lan said: "Tomorrow is the day of the Khan's burial. It's also a good day for my sister. ”

Princess Ning Guo became more and more confused: "How can you say that it is my good day?" What exactly are you trying to say? ”

Rong Lan laughed: "Tomorrow is also a good day for Qingmei, sister, think for yourself." "Turn around and leave.

Princess Ningguo grabbed her and shouted, "You make it clear." ”

Rong Lan shook her off and called Xing'er: "Let's go!" ”
