Uncle Lu!!

Chapter 124

Huai An pulled Lu Xian to the side and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Lu, why are you wearing eunuch clothes?" ”

Lu Xian didn't know where the idea of promoting narrowness came from, and teased him: "It's changed, the eunuch's Yu Lu is higher than the Hanlin official." ”

Huai'an was like being struck by lightning, stupid on the spot.

Lu Xian smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and walked away.

On the way back, my father and mother took a carriage, and Huai'an and my eldest brother and sister-in-law took a carriage.

The wheels run over the stone bricks and scurry forward.

In the light of the dusk sky, Huai'an's big eyes unconsciously aimed at the eldest brother.

Huai Ming thought he was curious about what was going on in the palace, but he was really tired now, and he just wanted to close his eyes and recuperate.

"Big brother, you don't feel uncomfortable, do you?" Huai'an asked.

Huai Ming thought he was worried about himself, and smiled: "No." ”

"Not at all?" Huai'an asked again.

Huai Ming glanced at him, shook his head, and closed his eyes again.

Huai'an saw that his eldest brother ignored him, and looked at his sister-in-law again.

Lu Youning's spirit is better than Huaiming's, but after experiencing a palace change, it is inevitable that he will lose his soul.

"Sister-in-law......" Huai'an said tentatively.

"Hmm." Lu Youning responded.

"My eldest brother is a good man." Huai'an Road.

Lu Youning: ???

Huai Ming raised his heavy eyelids and looked at him with a wary expression.

"However, no matter what decision your sister-in-law makes, Huai'an will support you!" Huai'an said very seriously.

Huai Ming looked at his wife with an inexplicable expression: "What decision?" ”

Lu Youning was also puzzled, and shook his head to indicate that he didn't know anything.

"Big brother, you will always be my good big brother." Huai'an said: "But this kind of thing, the choice lies with the sister-in-law, no matter what the result is, you have to try to accept it." ”

Huai Ming raised his eyebrows: "What do you want to say?" ”

"Nothing, nothing!" Huai'an shook his head like a rattle.

In this kind of matter, you still have to take into account the face of the eldest brother, otherwise one will be angry and kick him off the carriage, which will affect the good family style of the brother and brother Gong.

When they got home, they first went to the old lady to report their safety, for fear that the old man and children would be frightened, and the four of them tacitly did not mention the thrilling changes that happened in the palace.

Only Sister Peng hugged her father's neck in distress, and shed tears, Shen Yu almost turned into a puddle of water, and hugged her with an uninjured hand for a long time.

In the end, it was Lu Youning who proposed to take Sister Peng to the East Courtyard for a few days, so that the public could recuperate from her injuries.

When the old lady saw that they were all tired, she didn't ask any questions, and told her children and grandchildren to go back to their rooms and eat and rest.

Later, the sun rose as usual, and the Beijing officials above the seventh rank stayed in the palace for the twenty-seventh day of the Daxing Emperor's system, Huai'an wondered every day, whether Uncle Lu's words were true?

……

Back to that night. Rong He slept well all day, and was suddenly woken up at dusk, and the palace eunuchs untied the rope on his body with all hands and feet, and replaced him with sackcloth.

Fortunately, it was Qi Yuan who was not decided, otherwise he would have thought that his father had an accident.

"Imperial grandfather, he ......"

Hua Banban had a sad look on his face and nodded: "After the prince enters the palace, he must keep the etiquette, he can't talk and laugh, and he must cry when he should cry, and the cabinet ministers are all watching." ”

Ronghe nodded, and boarded the carriage surrounded by a group of entourage.

The Qianqing Palace, covered with white curtains and spirit flags, the autumn wind blows, and the mourning is everywhere.

King Qi's father and son guarded the spirit of Emperor Dai Xiao for Daxing, Rong He faced the remains of his grandfather who had not had a few faces, he really couldn't cry, and somehow suddenly remembered a joke that Huai'an had told him - the emperor's new clothes.

Thinking that the emperor's grandfather used all his shrewdness on selfish desires, and saw that the wind made the rudder and flattery filled the entire court, but he claimed to be a wise man, and often said that he was benevolent and cultivated, worked hard, and was loved by the people of the world.

In fact, it is the same as the Son of Heaven in Huai'an's jokes, bare and grinding, and it is embarrassing to turn in circles.

There are endless discordant pictures in his mind, Rong He suddenly wants to laugh, but the historian is recording their words and deeds on the side, and he can't laugh at this time! So he thought about all the sad things he had experienced in his life, and the more he endured it, the more he wanted to laugh, so he had to reach out and pinch his thigh.

Fortunately, at this time, under the singing and harmony of the salute officer, high and low howls sounded everywhere, and he had no choice but to open his mouth and pull his throat and start howling.

By his side, King Qi was crying breathlessly. Rong He would glance at his father every time he howled, and sighed in his heart, his father was really filial! His grandfather treated him like that, and he was still heartbroken to see him off.

Where is the filial piety of King Qi, he thinks of the tragic experience in the first half of his life, the tragic murder of the daughter of the side concubine, the devastated Jiangshan Sheji left by his father, and the mess caused by the younger brother of the troubled man in the Zongren Mansion......

It's really sad, aggrieved and heartbroken, I can't wait to pull the old man out of the coffin and ask: "Why did you give birth to him in the first place?!" ”

Until this link was about to end, King Qi still cried bitterly, and Zheng Qian had to drag his old body forward to advise: "Your Highness, the palace car is driving, and the grief of the ministers is not as good as that of Your Highness, but you must take care of your jade body, and you still need to preside over the major events after the emperor's death." ”

King Qi barely stopped his grief, moved to the Yongsu Hall next to him, and drafted the temple number, the name and the edict for Emperor Daxing.

Overnight, the city was full of filial piety.

The noon gate square was full of civil and military officials and noble clans dressed in plain clothes and black belts, waiting for the heir to read the edict of Emperor Daxing.

The sun shines through the clouds and shines on the golden bricks of the Forbidden City, and the spine beasts on the eaves wake up one after another, condescendingly looking down on the succession of the two dynasties.

The two eunuchs came out of the door on the left and right, rounded their arms and waved their whips, and pulled out three loud sounds.

King Qi appeared in front of everyone as a prince, flanked by a lengthy endless guard of honor.

The salute official's voice was loud: "Read out the edict of Emperor Daxing." ”

The rulers fell on their knees again and listened to the hadith.

This official edict was not written in the blood of the emperor in his imminent moment, but was drawn up by several cabinet ministers last night.

The content of the edict was concise and condensed. First, he narrated his life, ascended the throne in a certain year and month, and how many years he reigned; Then the next heir was announced: the third prince, King Qi, was the emperor; Then he told the funeral to be simple, to change the day and the moon, not to prohibit folk music to marry, and the princes of the clan and the governors of the provinces should not go to their duties without permission.

In the end, he repented of his mistakes in life, what reused traitors, harmed loyalty, neglected government, sought longevity, built a large number of buildings, and worked hard for the people and money...... In short, I haven't done anything good in this life, and I can't be ashamed of myself in retrospect, and I can't regret it.

The ministers listened to such an edict...... Phew, it's a testament, and I already know Zheng Gelao's intentions.

Including King Qi himself, they all gave a comprehensive condemnation of what the first emperor did, laying the foundation of public opinion for the upcoming New Deal. It's just that I don't know where this young emperor, with mediocre qualifications, will take charge of this huge ship full of holes and sail towards.

……

King Qi could not ascend the throne immediately, he had to stay in the Qianqing Palace to mourn, and the month was changed to the day, that is, the twenty-seventh day of filial piety.

In order to show his humility, he must wait until the ministers ask for three times and refuse twice before agreeing to the succession.

Therefore, the order he issued during this time was still the decree of King Qi.

Initially taking over the affairs of the court, state affairs are like a sting, it is inevitable to be anxious, and several cabinet elders are not like the masters in his palace when he was in the palace can deliver their hearts, in the face of these people left by the emperor, every word and deed must be pondered repeatedly.

He took advantage of this time to release many officials in the Criminal Department and the Metropolitan Procuratorate who were convicted for their words, released Zhou Xichen in the Imperial Prison, and released Feng Chun, the old eunuch in Dongchang, and gave him to leave the palace and live for a long time......

When Rong He came to him, he remembered that the poor boy had been with him in the palace for nearly a month, so he promised him that after the enthronement ceremony, he asked Huai'an to enter the palace and continue to accompany him to study.

……

"Into the palace?"

The braised pork bar that Huai An was about to put in his mouth fell on the table with a click. Hesitantly, he looked down between his legs.

"Dad, I don't think that's appropriate......" he said.

Shen Yu only felt strange: "It's just that the study hall of the palace is moved to the Huangji Gate, is there any difference?" ”

Huai An said with a look of embarrassment: "I know that you are high-spirited, but in this world, you must always leave a son to inherit the lineage......"

Huaiming choked out a mouthful of soup, and Lu Youning took out a handkerchief to help him wipe his clothes.

"I asked you to accompany the emperor's eldest son to study, not to be a eunuch." Huai Ming felt that his younger brother was so silly and cute.

But smiling and smiling, he felt that something was wrong: "What does it mean to leave a son to inherit the lineage?" Am I not a son? ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Huai'an's eyes, and he blurted out: "Big brother, are you okay?!" ”

Then, he watched his eldest brother's face turn black inch by inch.

Huai Ming sneered, put down his chopsticks and went to catch him. Huai'an shouted for help, and escaped all the way out of the hall, out of the yard, out of the second gate, and into the front yard.

Lu Youning put down the chopsticks with a worried face, but saw that the whole family continued to eat as usual, talking and laughing as usual, as if there had never been two sons in this family.

After all, she is the eldest sister-in-law, how can she watch her husband chase and kill the younger brother-in-law and sit idly by, so she got up and confessed to the elders, planning to go out to fight.

"Leave them alone." The old lady took her granddaughter-in-law's hand and asked her to sit down.

"They've always been like this, just get used to it." Xu Tinglan also said.

……

There was a big water urn in the front yard, and Huai'an surrounded the water urn to avoid pursuit: "Big brother, calm down, take a deep breath." ”

Huai Ming didn't want to calm down, he just wanted to throw him into the big water urn.

Huai'an continued to negotiate: "Big brother, you are now a family person, so rude will scare your sister-in-law!" ”

Huai Ming stepped forward and grabbed his neck: "Do you still know in front of your sister-in-law?" What kind of bastard are you talking about? ”

"I was wrong, I was wrong!" Huai'an immediately surrendered and said: "I was also deceived by others, there is a debtor and a master, you have the ability to find the initiator!" ”

"Who?!" Huaiming asked angrily.

"Uncle Lu!" Huai'an said: "That day, you were wearing eunuch clothes, and he said that the eunuch's salary was higher than that of Hanlin, so you changed your career...... Huh? Eldest brother? How did you go? ”

Huai An twisted his wrinkled clothes and followed behind Huai Ming.

"Big brother, don't be cowardly, what's so terrible about my father-in-law? All men are equal before the truth. As long as you say a word, my brother will go out to accompany you, and you must not let go of that open-mouthed woo woo ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was carried into the yard by the eldest brother with his mouth covered.
