Kunning Palace.

The grandparents and grandchildren snuggled together, looking lonely.

"Grandma Huang, when people die, they will go to heaven, right?" Xiao Zhu Qizhen asked with a small face.

"Yes, it will become a star, twinkle and twinkle, if Zhen'er misses his father in the future, he can look at the stars." Empress Dowager Zhang was sad, but she didn't want her grandson to be too sad.

People, you still have to have a thought.

Xiao Zhu Qizhen was entangled: "There are so many stars, which one is the father?" ”

Empress Dowager Zhang said softly: "The brightest one." ”

"Hmm." The little one was a little happier.

Empress Dowager Zhang also squeezed out a smile, but the smile was bitter.

……

Before dawn, the grandfather and grandson got up.

Xiao Zhu Qizhen wore linen and filial piety, and followed the imperial grandmother to the Qianqing Palace.

As soon as he entered the main hall, he was dumbfounded, his big eyes were full of horror, his face was pale, and his small body trembled.

Ten beautiful women, hideous, distorted corpses appeared in front of him, and the remnants of the moonlight shone on their faces.

"Cover it, cover it quickly......" Empress Dowager Zhang saw that her grandson was frightened, so she hurriedly covered his eyes and ordered the eunuch to cover it with a white cloth.

"Zhen'er is not afraid, not afraid, they are going to accompany your father." Empress Dowager Zhang patted her grandson on the back and comforted her softly.

But the little guy still couldn't stop trembling, the scene just now, the visual impact was too strong, leaving a serious shadow on his heart.

Empress Dowager Zhang was distressed and angry, scolded the eunuch in charge, pulled her grandson to temporarily withdraw from the hall, and comforted her grandson.

For a long time, for a long time, Xiao Zhu Qizhen gradually eased up, and said with a pale face: "Grandma, were they all tortured to death?" ”

Empress Dowager Zhang was speechless.

In order to preserve the integrity of the corpse, most of the funeral concubines were hanged or died of poisoned wine, and they would experience unimaginable pain before death.

After a long time, she said bitterly: "This is the rule." ”

"Rules?" Xiao Zhu Qizhen asked in a trembling voice, "Who set the rules?" ”

“…… Taizu. ”

Xiao Zhu Qizhen nodded, and asked again: "They didn't die voluntarily, right?" ”

Empress Dowager Zhang was speechless again.

Seeing this, the little guy stopped asking, and was very depressed and sad.

It's not that he doesn't know that the burial of people is dead, but in his cognition, these buried concubines should leave peacefully, with a smile on the corner of their mouths, and go to heaven to live happily with their father.

Not like this!

His heart was throbbing, and the cruel images in his mind lingered, making him fear and blame himself.

The list of martyrs was given to the imperial grandmother by him, if it weren't for him......

Suddenly, he thought of something and asked, "Grandma Huang, aren't there three?" ”

My father wrote four, and then crossed out one, and he could still figure out such a simple math problem.

4-1=3√

4-1=10×

"What three?"

"That's it......" Xiao Zhu Qizhen wanted to tell the truth, but the words came to his mouth and swallowed again, "It's nothing." ”

Empress Dowager Zhang only thought that her grandson was frightened and kept comforting.

Xiao Zhu Qizhen was thinking about what went wrong.

The imperial grandmother didn't open the envelope, proving that she didn't do it, the little eunuch... It's not like it's true, he shouldn't dare to ...... Xiao Zhu Qizhen finally came to a creepy conclusion for him:

- The queen mother did it!

With the object of suspicion, it makes much more sense to think about the details.

For example: why is there more envelope packaging in the funeral list?

For example, why did the queen mother teach him the envelope until the last moment?

Another example: Why did the queen mother keep urging him after giving him the list, and didn't give him a chance to open the package and check it.

Everything suddenly opened up, and the genius remembered the romance o m for a second, but he did not have the joy after breaking the problem, on the contrary, such a queen mother made him very afraid.

At the same time, he also didn't understand, why did the queen mother do this, they don't seem to have any grudges?

He vaguely remembered that counting his mother, his father had a total of thirteen concubines, and ten of them were buried at once......

Xiao Zhu Qizhen raised his head and asked, "Grandma Huang, who are the martyrs?" ”

After a pause, he felt that it was too troublesome to ask such a question, so he changed his words and asked, "Who hasn't been buried?" ”

Empress Dowager Zhang just looked at it and replied: "Your brother's mother, Concubine Wu, and the former Empress Hu, who has become a monk, and your mother. ”

"The concubines who gave birth to the prince don't have to be buried, right?" Xiao Zhu Qizhen asked.

"That's right." Empress Dowager Zhang was a little strange, "Zhen'er, why are you asking this?" ”

"Nothing." The little guy shook his head, stopped speaking, and said in his heart: One gave birth to a dragon son, and the other became a monk, that is to say, all those who can be buried are martyred.

Empress Dowager Zhang was asked by her grandson, and she also muttered a little: Why did his son be martyred so much, his father only buried five concubines, and he directly doubled.

After thinking about it, I was relieved again: Yes, my son is still young, not yet forty years old, and it is the time when he is full of energy, and it is understandable to want more women to accompany him.

Thinking of this, she became sad again, and her son left at a young age.

The sky has no eyes!

At this time, Sun, who was wrapped in white silk around his waist, came over.

Empress Dowager Zhang glanced at her and ignored her, and Xiao Zhu Qizhen glanced at her and ignored her.

The Sun family is a little angry, and the evil mother-in-law ignores her, what is wrong with her son?

It must have been Mrs. Zhang who said something to Zhen'er...... Sun took a deep breath and stepped forward and said, "Zhen'er, you have to help the coffin all the way to Jingling, the road is long and obstructive, and the queen mother brought you your favorite pastry." ”

As he spoke, he handed over the mini snack box.

"No, I'm not hungry." Xiao Zhu Qizhen turned his head away and didn't look at it.

Sun's hand froze in mid-air, embarrassed to the extreme.

"Town, how much do you eat......"

"No, I said I wasn't hungry." The little guy's voice is a bit loud and stiff.

"Then you... Take it first, and eat it when you're hungry. Sun handed it to him.

As soon as Xiao Zhu Qizhen let go, the food box fell to the ground, and the exquisite pastries inside were scattered all over the ground.

He didn't look at it, turned his head and said, "Grandma Huang, let's go to the palace, my grandson wants to accompany my father again." ”

"yes, okay."

The grandfather and grandson walked into the inner hall together, leaving the Sun family alone to stand on the spot.

……

Early in the morning, Emperor Xuande made a big trip, and the ministers wept and sent them all the way out of the capital.

Xiao Zhu Qizhen helped the coffin all the way to Jingling.

said that it was all the way to help the coffin, but at such a long distance, not to mention a child, even a strong man could not persevere, Xiao Zhu Qizhen just got off the sedan chair every other way to help the coffin, and spent most of the time in the sedan chair.

Along the way, he thought a lot.

Father's heroic face kept flashing in his mind, and the teachings of the past reappeared.

"When you can't figure out something, bury it in your heart first, and when you grow up and mature, you will naturally understand."

"We can't just look at the surface of the problem, loyalty is like treachery, treachery is like loyalty, and the essence of things is often the opposite."

"There are people who are nice to you on the surface, but in reality they are just pleasing you for their own benefit; Some people are working against you on the surface, but for the sake of the people and your name. ”

"Don't show everything on your face, hide it in your heart, have a rod and scale in your heart, and don't just listen to what others say."

"The emperor is not blessed, he fights for a lifetime and leaves a name for all generations."

……

It's been a long journey, and it seems longer than all his experiences from the time he can remember to the present.

Stepping off the sedan chair, he is still a child, still immature, but this small body exudes an unspeakable and disobedient temperament.

Seeing his father's coffin buried, he did not mourn and cry like others, and did not even show sadness.

He was calm and looked at the ...... calmly Until the coffin is closed.

He raised his face, looked up at the clear blue sky, and whispered in a voice that he could only hear: "Father, look at it, your son will not let you down." ”

He looked up and looked at it for a long time, until the accompanying eunuch timidly reminded him that he slowly withdrew his gaze and stepped on the sedan chair again.

The immature but firm voice came from the sedan chair: "Go back to the palace!" ”

"Let's go!"

The shrill voice of the accompanying eunuch was flattering, and it spread far and wide......

…

(End of volume)

In fact, there are still a lot of plots to write in this volume, but I'm afraid that the treasures will say water, so I cut off part of the plot, otherwise there are hundreds of chapters, in fact, Qinghong has been avoiding water, and has never deliberately watered, really!

After reading the comments, the biggest slot in this volume is the abruptness of Zhu Zhanji's death, but in fact...... Abrupt indeed.

In history, he was a super energetic person, and until a few months before his death, there was no sign of death, although Qinghong could make him sick or something, but he felt that it was very inconsistent, and it did not conform to Zhu Zhan's basic personality.

There are also three Yangs, not blue, red and black, but... They are really not the kind of great Guangzheng image in film and television dramas, and they are not even good people, the actual record and the national record are written in black and white.

The reason why Sanyang is famous is because they are the grandfathers of the cabinet, and the cabinet spares no effort to tout it for the sake of political correctness, nothing more.
