With their white robes swaying lightly, the eight elders lined up in two rows and walked slowly into the mourning hall. Not to mention the civil and military officials on both sides, even Brother He Lanji was moved by it.
Eight, eight elders, all came!
You must know that the relationship between Shenzong and the royal family is not a subordinate relationship. Long ago, before the Emperor of the God Blessed Empire unified the continent, Shenzong's position was even higher than the imperial power.
Even He Lanxuan could only write a letter to Shenzong asking them to send an elder to liberate the Queen Mother.
The other party turned out to be eight people when they arrived. The profound meaning of this is worth pondering.
Stopping in front of the coffin, the elder with white beard and hair bowed slightly towards He Lanxuan in an neither humble nor overbearing manner, "Hearing the Queen Mother's death, the entire Shenzong family is deeply saddened. Please express your condolences, Your Majesty!"
Secretly guessing in his heart, He Lanxuan naturally showed no expression on his face and nodded lightly. His tone was completely official, "Several elders came to express condolences for my grandmother. I am deeply grateful!"
After some pleasantries, several elders lit incense for the old queen mother, performed a simple ritual, and then He Lanxuan arranged for the palace staff to take her to the VIP Hall to rest.
As the emperor, He Lanxuan naturally could not stay in front of the mourning body all the time. After staying there for a while, he left and went back to the study to deal with political affairs. He Lanxuan glanced at Chu Tianjiao.
Chu Tianjiao understood and immediately stood up and handed the little prince in his hand to the wet nurse.
The little prince couldn't get it. A pair of small hands just grabbed Chu Tianjiao's clothes and started to play with him, twisting and screaming, "I don't want it, I want to play with my aunt!"
No matter what the nanny tried to persuade, the little guy just wouldn't let go.
Chu Tianjiao also followed the nanny's advice at first, but when he saw that the little guy was unmoved, his face tightened and he said, "If you want to play with me, you must be obedient, otherwise, I will never pay attention to you again!"
When the little guy saw that she was really angry, he immediately put a look of disdain on his face on his face and said, "Then I have to play with aunt tomorrow, is that okay?"
"You eat well and sleep well at night. I will consider playing with you for a while tomorrow. Otherwise, don't even think about it!" Chu Tianjiao was still tough.
The little guy has always been coaxed and supported by others, but when he met such a master for the first time, he became very obedient and nodded repeatedly.
"Good boy, I'll give this to you. Take it back and plant it in a flower pot and keep it for fun!" Chu Tianjiao stretched out his hand and took out a seed from his body, growing it into a seedling in front of his eyes.
