The twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month in the thirty-second year of Hongde.
Emperor Hongde died in Deqing Palace in Yanjing at the age of forty-two.
The fourth son of the emperor, Li Jian, took the throne as emperor after his death with the emperor.
On this day, Mr. Shen personally bid farewell to his old friend.
On this day, heaven and earth are sad together.
As the funeral bell rang in the palace, the entire people of Yanjing City knelt on the ground, and many people shed tears.
Emperor Hongde's reputation among the people is extremely high.
Even though it had only been two years since he arrived in the north.
After all, after Chen took control of the north, the lives of the people really got better.
As for the powerful families in Yanjing City, especially those whose families were officials, they hung up white banners as quickly as possible, and everyone behaved in a dignified manner.
At the same time, a forbidden army outside the city, led by Liu Bo, the commander of the forbidden army, stationed in Yanjing City to prevent anyone from causing chaos at this moment.
This guard of 5,000 people was a forbidden army. After entering the city, they were led by the auxiliary minister Pei Jun and placed under the control of Shen Yi.
…………
News of the emperor's funeral spread to all parts of the world as quickly as possible.
Two days later in Nanjing City, Zhao Changping, who was still presiding over Nanjing affairs, received the urgent delivery from Yanjing, his eyes darkened, and he passed out.
Along with the white flags hung in the Jiankang Palace, bells sounded.
Throughout Jiankang City, every household is in good spirits and every household is clothed in beauty.
The cry spread throughout Jiankang.
It was as if the city that had raised Emperor Hongde was feeling sad and crying for the death of its own child.
The people spontaneously walked out of the door, and many people knelt on both sides of the road, howling and crying.
After all... this is the Holy Emperor who has been in power for more than thirty years. He is a benevolent king, and the people all remember his kindness.
In addition to Jiankang, other places also received news of the emperor's funeral.
Datong, Shanxi.
General Xue Wei and General Xue were fighting outside the city at this time. Not far in front of him, General Zhong Mingzhong led a guard of fine cavalry from the Xuanjia Army, rushed out of the Datong Pass, and met a Tatar cavalry head-on. They were fighting together, and the Tatars, who were always known for their speed, must have been bitten by Zhong Ming's men and unable to move.
The two sides are fighting fiercely.
Behind General Xue, the eldest son Xue Bei, who has also grown up, is gearing up and eager to try.
"Dad, please let me go and fight for a while! Uncle Zhong's battle was so exciting!"
Xue Wei glanced back at his son and said in a low voice: "Have a good time watching the battle. Watch more and learn more. There will be plenty of time for you to charge into battle in the future."
Xue Bei scratched his head, lowered his head and said yes. Then he remembered something and said, "Dad, Uncle Shen's daughter is getting married. How come no one from our family is there? Are you having trouble with Uncle Shen?"
Xue Wei turned around, glanced at his stupid son, kicked him on the butt mercilessly, and said angrily: "You don't understand shit, what are you talking about?"
Shen Yuan is still in Yanjing, so the Xue Wei family cannot go to Yanjing. If they go, they may not be able to get out.
This was the agreement made by Xue Wei and Shen Yi. To this day, General Xue has been honoring this agreement and has never slacked off in the slightest.
While the father and son were talking, a horse hurried over from a distance, half-knelt down in front of Xue Wei, and said in a hoarse voice: "General, six hundred dollars to hurry up!"
Xue Wei glanced at him, frowned and said, "What happened?"
"His Majesty…"
The man swallowed, lowered his head and said, "It's a funeral..."
Hearing these three words, even the carefree Xue Wei couldn't help but feel a little moved. He looked up at the sky, then turned to look in the direction of Yanjing, slowly knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to Yanjing three times.
Xue Bei also knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
After standing up, after a while, General Xue said slowly: "Ming Jin."
Xue Bei looked into the distance.
"Dad, Uncle Zhong is about to..."
"You are deaf
Already?"
General Xue roared angrily: "Ming Jin!"
This sentence frightened Xue Bei to death. He quickly asked someone to ring the bell. The Huai'an army has always been very particular about orders and prohibitions. Now even though Zhong Ming had gained a slight upper hand, they quickly began to gather their formation. Half an hour later, Zhong Ming galloped back, jumped off the horse, lowered his head and clasped his fists: "General!"
Zhong Ming exclaimed, and then General Zhong's eyes turned red. He knelt down and kowtowed in the direction of Yanjing. Then he stood up and said in a hoarse voice: "General, please return to Datong."
"Um."
General Xue let out a long sigh.
"Go back to Datong."
A group of soldiers and horses turned around and returned to Datong. After entering Datong Pass, they hung white flags on the pass.
The Chinese New Year is coming up in two days, and Datong has no intention of celebrating the new year. White cloths are hung on the city walls.
On the New Year's Day, a Tatar envoy entered Datongguan City and met Xue Wei. After meeting Xue Wei, the Tatar half knelt on the ground, lowered his head and said: "Amuto, the son of the Tatar Khan, is here to serve my father." Khan ordered us to pay homage to Emperor Da Chen."
Xue Wei looked at this man with a deadpan expression: "Where are you going?"
Amutuo looked calm and looked up at Xue Wei: "Back to the general, I'm going to Yanjing to pay homage to Emperor Chen's spirit in heaven."
Xue Wei asked: "So, should we fight or not fight this battle?"
"Father Khan said."
Amuto lowered his head and said, "After paying homage to Emperor Chen, let's continue fighting."
Xue Wei snorted and then waved his hand.
"Let it go."
…………
Korea.
There were a total of ten thousand-household camps with more than 10,000 troops stationed in Goryeo.
At this time, Shen Yuan was away, and the Goryeo garrison was led by Su Fangzai, the son of Su Ding, who was known as General Xiaosu.
General Su also received a message from his father when he was approaching his new year.
He was born in the Hongde Dynasty and grew up in the Hongde Dynasty, and his feelings for the emperor were no worse than those of his fathers. After receiving the news, General Xiao Su couldn't help but feel a little sad. He ordered the entire army to wear plain clothes, and then wore white scarves on their heads. He quickly rushed to Kaesong, the capital of Goryeo, and met the King of Goryeo.
"The Holy Emperor Chen has passed away, and the whole city of Kaicheng has been laid bare to offer sacrifices to my Majesty!"
The King of Korea was also trembling with fear when facing Su Fang. In addition, he really respected Emperor Hongde, so he quickly nodded in agreement.
Soon, the whole city of Kaesong was decorated with white flags.
This desolate white color spread from Yanjing outwards. In just a few days, everything from Shanhaiguan in the north to South Vietnam in the south turned into a blanket of white like falling snow.
Even among the people in the mountains and plains, many people consciously paid filial piety to Emperor Hongde.
In the blink of an eye, the new year has passed.
After discussion with Zhongshu, the new emperor nodded, and on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Chen changed his reign to Jianlong.
In this year, the original thirty-three years of Hongde was officially changed to the first year of Jianlong.
After the twenty-seventh day, the emperor abandoned his filial piety and began to manage the affairs of the court.
Before the enthronement ceremony could be held, several imperial edicts were issued from the imperial court.
The first imperial edict was to confer Shen Sangsang the title of Queen and to grant amnesty to the whole world.
The second imperial edict rewarded hundreds of officials, and at the same time named several Zhongshu prime ministers as the Third Division of the East Palace.
The third imperial edict was given to Shen Yi alone.
On the first day after the new emperor removed his filial piety, the imperial edict was sent to Shen Yi's house, formally conferring the title of Grand Master on Shen Yi.
At this point, the scholar who was born in Jiangdu for more than 20 years has completely achieved the ultimate goal of being a minister. He is an official and is ranked as a grand master. He assists in the administration of the imperial court and is also in charge of the military affairs in the north.
Anyone who sees him must call him Duke Shen or Grand Master Shen.
And this one
Today, after Master Shen entered the palace to express his gratitude, the two sons of the Shen family also left home one after another.
Shen Ji went to Nanjing to visit Zhao Changping, who was seriously ill, on behalf of Shen Yi.
Shen Yuan, on the other hand, left home and went north to return to the Koryo army.
At the door of Shen's house, Lord Shen patted Shen Ji on the shoulder and said, "Don't delay this journey. After arriving in Nanjing, if your great uncle is seriously ill, send a letter back through the Di newspaper department and go to Nanjing for your father." Go to Nanjing."
Shen Ji lowered his head.
Mr. Shen looked at Shen Yuan again and said slowly.
"When you get to the north, use more snacks."
Shen Yuan and Shen Ji both knelt in front of Shen Yi, lowered their heads and kowtowed.
"The child takes orders."
