The woman has to be pretty and filial, and after the emperor ascended, Shangguan Tang, who was still a little stunned, had already changed into a decrepit uniform under the fiddling of the palace people.Tie up the hair with a cloth, stick it on the head with a bamboo hairpin, expose the mourning bun with the hemp hair, tie the hemp belt on the head, and after all the makeup is gone, it looks extraordinarily pure and lovely.She hasn't recovered from the emperor's death, he is only 21 years old, he just left, and as the queen, she has to go out later, and the three public ceremonies will be funeral.Fortunately, Huo Guang also knew that his granddaughter was afraid that the six gods would be ownerless, and the women of the Huo family were the first to get the news of this shocking change, and they flocked into the palace, led by his wife Huo Xian.The general is not counting on it, Shangguan Tang originally hoped to get some comfort and support from his grandmother, who has always been protective of his shortcomings, but as soon as Huo Xian came to Weiyang Palace, he grabbed Shangguan Tang's wrist and scolded him for scolding."
Are you pregnant?""
Nope."
Shangguan Tang's voice was weak, as if it was extremely humiliating and dereliction of duty for a 15-year-old girl to fail to get pregnant.Huo Xian's face suddenly darkened, and he said coldly: "Didn't you let you have the same room after the emperor added the yuan service three years ago?"
Why haven't you conceived yet?
”"It's the emperor who can't give birth.""
Or can't you give birth?
Or does the emperor look down on you and don't want to have sex with you?
”Speaking of which, if it weren't for the fact that this arrogant grandmother meddled in the affairs of the harem, making the palace maids poor and wanting to stop the Son of Heaven from getting close to other women and favoring the Empress Shangguan, the Son of Heaven would not have been rebellious because of this.broke off the relationship with her that was gradually getting better, and was cold again, and there was no husband and wife for several years, how could I get pregnant?
Shangguan Tang was full of disappointment, it turned out that his grandmother protected her shortcomings, and only protected the sisters and nieces surnamed Huo.It would be nice if her mother was here, but her mother had died half a year ago, and now that her husband had arrived, she was a widow and a lonely woman.Thinking of this, Shangguan Tang couldn't help but lower his head, and tears rolled in his eyes again."
Don't cry, cry what!
Let you cry before you can cry!
”Huo Xian did not give up, and forced him to ask about the palace."
Since the emperor doesn't want to have sex with you, who does he favor on weekdays?"
Shangguan Tang's small front teeth bit his lower lip, lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty often recruits palace people to serve beside you. ”"Is she pregnant?""
The Imperial Doctor has tried, but he hasn't.""
This is a problem."
Huo Xian felt a headache, if the little emperor had a posthumous child, then drag it out, wait until he was born to be the new emperor, and wait for a few years, marry a granddaughter and come in to be the queen, this Weiyang Palace is still a world where the Huo family can enter and exit at will.Now that the little emperor is dead, she has to learn the secret she heard: Empress Gao put the children of the Lu family on the throne as the son of Emperor Xiaohui?
Huo Xian didn't have Empress Lu's means, but she had Empress Lu's courage, but her husband warned her that she would just help her young granddaughter take care of the palace, and don't worry about political affairs.She glared at Shangguan Tang again, and pointed her finger on her forehead wrapped in hemp belt: "It's all your fault, this Weiyang Palace, it's going to change the owner, and when the funeral is over, you won't be the queen, and you'll move out of the Jiaofang Palace!"
”Shangguan Tang was shocked, thinking that the Huo family was going to abandon him, so he quickly knelt down, hugged his grandmother's leg and begged, because she kept the blood of the Shangguan family, the blood of a traitor."
Grandmother, I've always been very obedient."
Huo Xian smiled: "Daughter, are you confused?"
At that time, you will be the queen mother of the Han Dynasty, and you will move to Changxin Palace. ”She patted the face of the fifteen-year-old prospective empress dowager, and cheered Shangguan up: "Remember, no matter who the general makes the emperor, the master of the Han Palace, you or our Huo family!"
”The Han people were already heavily buried, and the emperor's funeral was the most solemn and complicated.On this night, first put on the queen of decay and came out, and the three princes were funeral, and Huo Guang, the general of the great Sima who was always in the Weiyang Palace, the trembling Prime Minister Yang Chang, and the imperial historian Cai Yi immediately ascended to the greenhouse hall, all dressed in white and single, and the white silk was not crowned.The body of the emperor is still lying on the couch, Huo Guang worships when he performs a fierce worship, covers his left hand with his right hand, bows his head and then worships, and then comes forward with Yang and Cai, according to the funeral etiquette, undresses the Son of Heaven, and enlightens the emperor's hands and feet.It is said that this ritual originated from Zengzi, who examined his hands and feet, and thought that the body of his parents before his death was intact and intact, and that it was a good death.Although looking at Liu Fuling's face and the purple scab on his chest, he knew that it was definitely not a good death, the Son of Heaven died too suddenly, and in the eyes of outsiders, it was even a little unclear.Yang Chang couldn't bear to look at this scene, and Cai Yi couldn't help but sigh and cry, after all, he and Liu Fuling had a master-apprentice friendship and taught him poetry.Only Huo Guang turned a blind eye, and followed the rules of Emperor Xiaowu's burial many years ago.He had lost the look of crying secretly outside, and returned to his usual solemnity.After the game between the monarch and the minister was completely over, Huo Guang only allowed himself to grieve for a quarter of an hour, and then the hard-hearted minister returned.When Huo Guang held Liu Fuling's hand to inspect it, he said to him in his heart: "Although Your Majesty does not want to be a king. ”"But the old minister, you still have to be the Duke of Zhou!"
If King Cheng goes before Duke Zhou, will the Duke of Zhou feel sorry for himself and give up the world?
Of course not!
He will only continue to assist "King Kang".Huo Guang firmly believes in one thing: the reason why the Zhou Dynasty has the rule of Chengkang is not because of King Kang, but because of the Duke of Zhou!
As long as he is at the helm of the Han Dynasty, whoever will be the emperor will be the same!
The Eastern Crusade and Keyin will not be abandoned because of this, at most because the national funeral will be postponed for several months.After the inspection of the three dukes, the queen cried and saluted, and the palace people bathed the emperor, ate with pearls and jade, and put on the clothes of pearls and glutinous jade.Huo Guang had already ordered the palace keeper and the craftsman of the East Garden, and the deacon, to immediately send the mourning clothes such as Huang Mian and Ti Jin, as well as the golden jade clothes, which were ready at any time, and the coffin known as the "Yajunizi Palace" was also on the way to the greenhouse hall.When everything is done, the emperor is put into the coffin, and the coffin is carried to the front hall by the three princes and nine qing to be carried to the front hall for the funeral, which is just the beginning of a long funeral.Huo Guang beckoned Yang Chang and Cai Yi to come over, although they were both three dukes, but both governments looked forward to Huo Guang.The two of them said: "General, do you want to follow the usual practice, immediately use bamboo as a symbol, send an envoy out of Chang'an City, and tell the news of the funeral of the two thousand stones, princes, kings, and princes of the county in the starry night?"
”Huo Guang shook his head: "Don't worry, postpone it by a day." ”"After the end of tomorrow's gathering, Zhao Jiuqing and 2,000 stones will gather in the front hall to determine the people who will be mourned, and then announce the funeral, so as not to disturb the world!""
Tonight, Dao is far away in the palace."
Yang Yun, who is Lang Wei, dropped such a sentence, and left in a hurry, according to the rules, after the emperor ascended, Weiyang Palace should close the palace gate, and the Yellow Gate of the near ministers held troops, Hu Ben, Yulin, and Lang Zhong were all strict guards, the palace police, the five schools of the Northern Army surrounded the palace and stationed soldiers, and the Yellow Gate Order, Shangshu, Imperial History, and the Confessor traveled day and night.The ministers who witnessed the emperor's death could only stay in the palace to keep vigil, and they all stood under the steps of the front hall, waiting for the third duke to complete the small gathering, and transport the Ziguan over with Jiuqing.Although the emperor has never been in charge of the government, and he is not the same as the center, but after all, it is the collapse of the mountains, and the ministers are worried, because this time is very unusual, the Son of Heaven has no descendants to inherit the unification, and it is unknown who should inherit the throne.Since the Han Dynasty, there has only been one similar thing, that is, Zhou Bo and Chen Ping exterminated Zhu Lu, they did not recognize that the emperor supported by Lu Hou was a filial descendant, and selected an heir from the princes and kings of Liu Bang's children and grandchildren, and finally the king lay down to win.After more than 100 years, another game of gambling and betting will be staged in Weiyang Palace.In this game, there are many players who are qualified to participate, Prime Minister Yu Shi Dafu and Jiuqing are qualified to make suggestions, but there is only one dealer who will win or lose, and that is the general Huo Guang.But they probably don't know that Ren Hong, this little guy who is more than 2,000 Shi Huqiang Captain, who was rejected by the Huo family, is logically not qualified to participate in this game, and can only stand on the sidelines and watch, and there is actually a Wang Fang in his hand who may be able to win the game.For Ren Hong, this is good news.But there is also bad news: Ren Hong only has this Wang Bang, and if you throw it out, it will be gone.And the game is still very long, more than one hand.So when to expose the hole cards, is a big problem, throwing early has no effect, and even exposing their eyes in advance.It's not easy to throw it late, although Liu Fuling has not escaped his fate, Ren Hong can't be sure, will the future history continue to move forward along the original trajectory?
Coupled with the fact that he was only scared once by Huo Guang's slap on the shoulder today, Ren Hong had to be more cautious, tighten the cards in his hand, and carefully stare at this game of thrones, after today's events, he already understood."
There are no regrets, you only have one chance to win or lose!"
However, it seems that someone is more anxious than him.Just when Ren Hong and the others were waiting in the brightly lit front palace, a small yellow door that brought water to them took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and stuffed a small silk book into Ren Hong's hand!
Ren Hong didn't move, stuffed the silk into the wide sleeves, until the Taizhu order announced the end of the small collection, the Daxing Emperor's Ziguan was supported by the three dukes and nine qing, and slowly came from the greenhouse hall towards the front hall, and the ministers immediately saluted, and they couldn't afford to bow for a long time, and they bowed fiercely, covering their left hand with their right hand.Ren Hong found an opportunity, quietly unfolded the silk strip and took a look, and after seeing the content, he realized in his heart.His eyes glanced to the right, and in the corner of the ranks of the courtiers, there was a low-key old man in a soap robe, beardless, standing in the fire, as if he was dying soon, and he was glancing at him as if he was not going to die.Ren Hong has seen this person, but he has never said hello, and the two of them do not even deliberately do not contact each other on weekdays, so as not to be truthful, but when they meet, they exchange a look.That was the diehard loyalist of the former Wei Prince Liu Ju.The eldest son of the cool official Zhang Tang.The second person in the imperial court, the elder brother of the right general Zhang Anshi.The witch Gu was castrated in the silkworm room afterwards.The person who has raised Liu's illness, Zhang He!
