Emperor Yongxi's voice was very gloomy. Jia Jing stood up without knowing why. Emperor Yongxi slowly turned around and looked at Jia Jing carefully. Jia Jing couldn't help but look up and glanced at Emperor Yongxi.
But this sight made Jia Jing stunned. Emperor Yongxi's face was pale and ugly, and the circles around his eyes were red. He didn't seem to be in a very good condition.
After thinking about it, Jia Jing's face suddenly turned pale. If Emperor Yongxi is still standing here, who is ringing the Jingyang Bell for?
Seeing Emperor Yongxi's expression at this time, Jia Jing couldn't help but feel a little thump in her heart!
When Emperor Yongxi saw Jia Jing's face suddenly turning pale, he knew that Jia Jing had probably guessed something, so he nodded to him and said, "Go in."
After saying that, she still turned her head, Jia Jing pursed her lips tightly, then nodded gently, bowed deeply to Emperor Yongxi's back, and walked in with heavy steps.
Emperor Yongxi always turned his back to Jia Jing, until a moment later, a heartbreaking cry suddenly came from the room. Emperor Yongxi's hands behind his back were trembling slightly, his eye circles suddenly became redder, and he closed his eyes deeply.
Taking a deep breath, he then raised his head and looked at the falling snowflakes in the corner of the hall without words...
Jia Jing's body couldn't help but tremble, and his legs were weak like never before. He lowered his head and walked in.
Under the dim light, the cabinet ministers sat together with gloomy expressions, discussing something intensely in low voices. Officials from the old and new parties seemed to have temporarily put aside their grudges and stood together, looking very harmonious.
After seeing Jia Jing, everyone couldn't help but quiet down, and then everyone looked at each other. Obviously, they didn't expect that the second person summoned by Emperor Yongxi would be Jia Jing, but it was reasonable...
Yang Jisheng gave Shangguan Yi a look, and Shangguan Yi understood and prepared to step forward. Unexpectedly, Jia Jing did not notice them this time.
He just stared blankly at the old man lying there quietly. Since the burial had not officially begun, he was not covered with a face-covering kerchief, so Jia Jing could see what the old man looked like now.
.
He was so thin that he looked like a skeleton covered with human skin. Jia Jing only took one look at it and didn't dare to look at it again.
He was a person who was killed from the mountain of corpses and sea of blood. What kind of skeleton has he not seen before? But now Jia Jing did not dare to look at the Supreme Emperor. He tried to take two steps forward and looked at the Supreme Emperor in confusion.
, suddenly his legs softened, and he fell to his knees with a plop!
Upon seeing this, Shangguan Yi hurriedly stepped forward, and the cabinet officials also hurriedly stepped forward to help. Everyone supported Jia Jing, but Jia Jing still stared blankly at the Supreme Emperor in front of her.
After a long time, an uncontrollable grief suddenly hit his heart, and tears couldn't stop pouring out! A shrill cry cut through the night sky, Jia Jing wailed and banged her head on the ground desperately.
A group of officials pulled his arms, but he had no strength left and just knelt on the ground and cried like a child!
Shangguan Yi quickly comforted him softly, and a group of officials also followed suit, and then they grabbed him and pulled him up. However, his legs were still weak, so they had no choice but to arrange him to sit on a futon aside.
rest.
To be honest, Jia Jing did not expect that she would be so sad because of the death of the Supreme Emperor, because although the Supreme Emperor had repeatedly shown kindness to her, Jia Jing knew in her heart that it was out of guilt for herself, so she did not
How to take it to heart.
Therefore, Jia Jing thought that although her relationship with the Supreme Emperor was good, she was far from the point where she would shed tears for him. But Jia Jing was wrong. When she really saw the Supreme Emperor lying there miserably, she might have shared the same blood and sympathy.
Jia Jing lost her temper like never before...
This feeling is as if you have hated your grandfather's stubborn old man since you were a child, but one day he fell ill and was very serious. When he was lying on the bed and tortured and died, you felt so depressed that you just wanted to cry.
You think you won’t shed a single tear, and you think it’s filial piety if you don’t laugh when he dies, but in fact, when you actually see him lying there, and when people with the same blood flowing in his body leave, you always feel
I can't help but feel sad...
After everyone placed Jia Jing on the futon, they were naturally filled with emotion. The Emperor's love for Jia Jing was indeed not in vain. Jia Jing was indeed convincing in terms of love and righteousness, if nothing else.
After sighing for a while, everyone ignored Jia Jing. After all, the death of the emperor was a big event, not to mention the death of the Supreme Emperor!
So they have a lot to think about, but the time is very short. Now a lot of people outside are still waiting for the news. They need to get a charter as soon as possible before they can announce the death of the Supreme Emperor!
Jia Jing sat on the futon blankly, as if her whole body had been ripped out of bones. She just sat there silently watching the Supreme Emperor cry in a daze...
After an unknown amount of time, Dai Quan walked in, took a look at the cabinet members who were still having a heated discussion, silently walked to Jia Jing's side and said, "My lord, my condolences..."
Jia Jing ignored him. Dai Quan hesitated and said: "Now several other princes and governors have entered the palace. They are waiting outside to come in and kowtow. They will go out to discuss defense in a while. Your Majesty said, if you are really sad, you must be sad."
You can go back first, so there is no need to discuss it."
Jia Jing stood up slowly after hearing this and said, "Business is more important first." Dai Quan nodded happily after hearing this and said, "That's what the Marquis said."
Jia Jing then glanced at the Supreme Emperor and knelt down on the futon on the side, saying to Dai Quan: "I will kneel here for a while. When all the princes have come to see me, you can call me again."
Dai Quan couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Jia Jing was so affectionate, he respected her more and more, agreed and left.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Jia Jing is kneeling here out of an inexplicable guilt for the Supreme Emperor. She is kneeling here to make her conscience feel better. As for why this is happening
Jia Jing herself didn’t actually know what she was thinking.
After a while, I saw Song Qing, the Duke of Qi, and Wu Kui, the Duke of Jing, coming in together. Naturally, I was stunned for a long time when I saw Jia Jing kneeling aside. Then I ignored Jia Jing and strode to the Supreme Emperor.
In front of me, I knelt down and cried loudly.
Naturally, no one would stop them from crying, so they knew what was going on. After pretending to cry for a while, they got better. They still ignored Jia Jing, just glanced at him, and then went out.
Following the two of them was the Korean Duke Ren Jingli. Although Ren Jingli looked ugly, he did not cry. There were no outsiders here, and it was a confidential time, so there was no need to act.
When Ren Jingli walked in and saw Jia Jing, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but he didn't say anything. Apparently he also knew that Jia Jing was loved and cared for by the Supreme Emperor when he was young.
Ren Jingli stepped forward to inspect the body of the Supreme Emperor. He sighed after being speechless for a long time, then knelt down and kowtowed respectfully a few times. Then he stood up and walked to Jia Jing's side and said, "The Supreme Emperor has gone. Kneel here to see if he can."
The old man won’t be able to see it either, so it’s better to save some energy to do business.”
Ren Jingli narrowed his eyes and looked out the door, then sighed and said: "You can't deal with the two of them if you leave me alone. How to arrange military affairs and ensure the stability of the army after the death of the Supreme Emperor Yulong is the first priority.
"
Ren Jingli pondered for a moment, then looked at Jia Jing and said, "Are you still going to kneel here?" Jia Jing stood up and said, "I'll go with Uncle Shi."
After hearing this, Ren Jingli smiled, stretched out his hand to pick up Jia Jing, patted him on the shoulder and said nothing. Jia Jing looked back at the body of the Supreme Emperor, and then followed Ren Jingli out.
After intense discussions, and finally with the intervention of Emperor Yongxi, the cabinet finally formulated a rough charter. Jia Jing and the generals have also finished the discussion. In fact, there is nothing they can do independently on such matters.
, they wish they could go as far away as possible...
After all, Emperor Yongxi should be very sensitive at this time. Who dares to provoke him casually? They also have murder weapons in their hands, wouldn't that make people more fearful?
Almost all the top people in civil and military circles have arrived. Almost all the most powerful people in Dayan are already in this hall. Emperor Yongxi is sitting on the dragon chair with a sullen face. He seems to be a little absent-minded and in no mood.
He said nothing, and with just a wave of his hand, Dai Quan stepped forward and read the Emperor's last edict.
Naturally, everyone quickly knelt down. When Dai Quan finished reading, there was naturally a lot of crying again. Emperor Yongxi didn't care. When everyone had almost stopped crying, Emperor Yongxi waved his hand and ordered everyone to help them up.
Then Emperor Yongxi spoke in a hoarse voice: "The Supreme Emperor... I have finished reading the late emperor's edict. Everyone here is the pillar of my great Yan. Do you have any objections?"
Who dares to have any objection? Just pretend that there is no objection...
The Supreme Emperor is gone, how can there be any loss because of a posthumous edict? Besides, the Supreme Emperor is now in the Zen position, who can make trouble with a so-called posthumous edict?
Moreover, this edict is said to be a posthumous edict. In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that the emperor is going to die. If it is not a sudden death, he is also seriously ill. How can he have the mind to write a posthumous edict? Just give him some instructions.
Incredible.
So this so-called edict, to be honest, was written by the chief minister of the dynasty... It was a summary of the merits and demerits of the emperor's life on behalf of the emperor. These are basically unspoken rules.
You must know that Yang Jisheng was a member of the Supreme Emperor, and he and Shangguan Yi completed the writing of the edict together. Even he felt that there was no problem with the edict, so there was no problem...
Therefore, Shangguan Yi came out first to salute and said, "Your Majesty, I have no objections." Emperor Yongxi nodded and said, "In that case, Aiqing and others will just follow the rules and step back."
Everyone bowed in agreement, and then quietly exited the hall. Everyone present could feel that today, perhaps the original Yongxi Emperor was gone forever!
Dayan is about to welcome his true master!
At this time, the civil and military officials outside the city were also waiting anxiously. Finally, when a red light broke through the horizon, Shangguan Yi, the chief assistant of the cabinet, appeared on the phoenix tower and announced to the civil and military officials in a sad and solemn tone.
: "The Great Emperor, the dragon controls Bintian!"
For a moment, the civil and military officials became noisy. After several Hong Zhixun ministers knelt down and shouted in grief, the civil and military officials also came to their senses. They knelt down and cried bitterly. Some even fainted on the spot...
After everything was more stable, Shangguan Yi asked the civil and military officials to return to their offices to ensure that everything was in order during the Emperor's grand visit. The six ministers then took their orders.
However, Shangguan Yi still called the Minister of Rites to stop him. The Emperor's grand deed must be handled by the Ministry of Rites, so the officials of the Ministry of Rites also joined in the "lively" discussion among the cabinet ministers.
So everything next was left to the Ministry of Rites. Naturally, the Ministry of Rites had to formally inform the Queen Mother of the news. Although she had already heard about it and expected it, when she really got the exact news from the court
, the Queen Mother still passed out!
Fortunately, all the concubines of the Sixth Palace, including Queen Liu, were there at this time, so everyone finally woke up the old lady after a lot of trouble.
The Queen Mother naturally cried loudly for a while when she woke up. The concubines present in the harem, including the princesses from various palaces, naturally also started to cry. There was a lot of crying for a while. Fortunately, Li Miaojin, Princess of Yangcheng, was also there, and she tried to persuade her.
Lived by the Queen Mother.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Because there are still many things waiting for the Queen Mother to do next, how can you cry here like this?
The Queen Mother also knew this truth, so she could only stand up with force. After the death of the emperor, the Queen and his concubines had to immediately take off their jewelry and gorgeous clothes. The Queen Mother took the lead to go to the ceremonial department outside the jewelry store after changing into plain clothes.
The official asked the Queen Mother to wait before going out.
Then, following the guidance of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, the Tian family royal family needed to mourn from Xihua Gate until they entered the mourning hall. At this time, the Ministry of Rites had already bathed and changed the emperor's clothes, put them into a prepared coffin, and sent it to Jiyan Hall.
Jiyan Hall was properly arranged, and the Queen Mother and others also rushed to Xihua Gate. According to the guidance of the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette, they knew where to go, where to stop, where to kneel, where to cry, and how long to cry.
There are strict regulations, not only for the Tian family, but also for all the officials who come to worship later.
Outside the Jiyan Hall, there were officials from the Ministry of Rites who distributed mourning clothes made of linen to the princes, princes, princesses and princesses. Only then could they enter the Jiyan Hall to keep vigil.
When the Queen Mother entered the palace, she had already burst into tears. Li Miaojin and the Queen tried their best to support her before dragging her in. However, when she saw the Emperor's coffin, she still couldn't help but rush towards it. Fortunately, the Queen and Li Miaojin stopped her.
Go fast.
Emperor Yongxi was not in Jiyan Hall at this time. He wanted to discuss some important matters with the cabinet, including the five governors of the Five Military Governors' Mansion, and officials from the Ministry of Rites, such as the mausoleum and the posthumous title given to the Supreme Emperor by the Ministry of Rites.
.
After everything was discussed and settled, Emperor Yongxi came to Jiyan Hall. Naturally, there were many people crying. When the emperor knelt down and cried, who dared to stand and have fun? Everyone knelt down and cried bitterly.
After trying to persuade her again, she gave up. At this time, the royal family and nobles could also be called in to attend the funeral. The Queen and others supported the Queen Mother and waited for her to retreat. They also sent word that the imperial concubines would come in to cry. Mother Jia
The others then came in and cried for a while, and then stayed with the Queen Mother, firstly to comfort her, and secondly to point out some things that the Queen Mother didn’t understand. After all, those who could talk to the Queen Mother were basically old people like Jia Mu.
Widow......
A low-level imperial concubine like Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing is not qualified to come in and cry. She can only cry outside and then be arranged to go to another side hall to wait for a while and continue to cry...
After the imperial ministers had finished their work, it was the royal family's turn to come in and offer incense and cry. Nothing special happened. Although Emperor Yongxi and his brothers hated him so much that they wanted to beat each other's brains out.
come out!
But after all, it was the grand day when the Supreme Emperor Dragon Controlled Bintian, so each and every one of them was quite honest. They came in and cried loudly for a while. Then they knelt on the ground and remembered that they were only one step away from the throne, but in the end they all made wedding dresses for the fourth child.
It is inevitable to say some resentful words, but they are all from the Heavenly Family, so everyone pretends to be deaf and blind and cannot see.
But Jia Jing, who was standing with her hands tied outside the door, frowned slightly, looked at the princes, narrowed her eyes slightly, and a bad feeling suddenly arose in her heart...
These princes may have finished venting their anger, so they stood in the ranks of the Tian family. Among them, Prince Li Xi of Ngee An was the seventeenth younger brother of Emperor Yongxi and the seventeenth son of the Supreme Emperor.
Li Kun, the Fourth Yongxi Emperor, was a brother of the same mother.
Among them, Xiao Qi was the most beloved by the Queen Mother. Therefore, the Queen Mother was sad at this time, so she inevitably pulled Li He and cried uncontrollably. The two of them were talking about something, and Jia Jing, who was standing outside the door, frowned.
He couldn't help but frown even tighter. He looked at Emperor Yongxi aside, but he didn't seem to express anything.
After all the princes left, it was the turn of the honorable nobles to come in and kowtow. At this time, Li Bi, the grandson of Duke Cheng, also came. Duke Cheng was bedridden and could not get up, so he came to kowtow on behalf of Duke Cheng.
Crying spirit.
After Li Bijing and the three princes kowtowed, Jia Jing came in to kowtow. At this time, Jia Jing had actually calmed down, but when this kind of thing is exposed to the public, it still needs to be done in full.
of.
So as expected, Jia Jing still held the coffin and cried bitterly, which made everyone feel the same. The whole hall was filled with sadness. Even the Queen Mother had to admit that the Emperor's love for this boy was not in vain!
