Chapter 379: Dont mourn when you are sad for your family!
To be honest, Yongzheng died at the right time.
He died on the spot less than a month after he fell ill. It was only August at that time, and the weather was neither cold nor hot, so it was not too painful to mourn.
The day I carried the coffin back to Luan was a gloomy and rainy day, as if I was mourning for the late Emperor.
It's a pity that no one, whether it's the Empress Dowager Shu Jin, the new emperor Hong Zhou, or any of the concubines in the harem, is truly sad.
Shu Jin looked on with cold eyes. The only one who really shed tears was probably the emperor's most beloved brother, Prince Yi Yinxiang.
Oh, yes, before his death, the emperor also left a testament to his younger brother: to prevent him from avoiding taboos, he was granted the title of yin.
The coffin and coffin of His Majesty the late Emperor Yongzheng were carried into the Qianqing Palace in the Forbidden City, and the mourning ceremony was officially held. A memorial service was held in the main hall.
Only then did the complicated mourning ceremony officially begin.
For this reason, the new emperor Hongzhou specially issued an edict to restore the title of prince to his twelfth uncle Yundi and ordered him to preside over the funeral ceremony of the Daxing Emperor.
Well... how should I put it, the funeral professional appears as a tool man again!
Even though this twelfth prince knows that he is a tool, he is extremely dedicated - after all, he is not young anymore. The opportunity to be a tool for the new emperor will never happen again in his life! In any case, The title of King Doroluo has actually returned to his head. This is more real than anything else!
Of course, this is not because Hong Zhou was a good person! Mainly because his biological father was His Majesty Yongzheng, and the person who held his funeral couldn't have a low status, right? At least he had to be a king... right?
The ghostly Majesty Yongzheng floated to his own son Hong Zhou, who was dressed in plain clothes, and muttered: "It's okay to promote Yun Chen for the time being. After two years, we must find an opportunity to depose him!"
It's a pity that the successor emperor Hong Zhou couldn't hear it.
As the younger brother of Emperor Daxing, Prince Yi was also a rare hereditary prince. He knelt very close to the new emperor. He really heard this. The sadness in Prince Yi's heart was washed away by the soul of his fourth brother. , the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch twice.
Fourth brother, fourth brother, what other unfulfilled wishes do you have?
When an ordinary person dies, the funeral usually only lasts for three to seven days, but when the emperor dies, the funeral ceremony will only be more grand. The filial new emperor set an eighteen-day funeral ceremony for Emperor Daxing.
Fortunately, you only need to kneel all day long for the first seven days. After the first seven days of worship, you will hold mourning rituals in the morning, noon and evening. Everyone from the emperor and the empress dowager to the clan members and concubines will have their knees kneaded. Suffer once.
Fortunately, Yongzheng died at a very good time, unlike when Kangxi died, which was a freezing time!
When the Huairou Princess Funkriyirha came back, she was already seven years old than her own father.
This was not because the princess was snubbing the late emperor, but mainly because on the way back to Beijing, Feng Keli suffered from morning sickness.
Ah, yes, Funkry is pregnant.
After hearing the news, Empress Dowager Shu Jin's eyes almost popped out of her head, and she had to issue an edict immediately. During the mourning period, Feng Keli was allowed to live in the Concubine Mao Palace to prevent her from traveling in and out of the palace. Erzisebuten lives.
Fortunately, the first seven days of the heaviest mourning rituals have passed. As long as you get a good rest, you won't get pregnant.
At the end of August in the 23rd year of Yongzheng's reign, Emperor Daxing held a funeral, and Zi Palace was placed in the Jingshan Funeral Palace.
Ah, that’s right, you can’t bury her yet.
You have to choose another "auspicious day" before you can carry it into the imperial mausoleum. There is no hurry for this auspicious day. The day chosen by the Qin Tian Jian will be in a few months.
As for whether the funeral in Jingshan will stink in the past few months...that is not a problem that Shu Jin needs to worry about. Anyway, it has been moved to Jingshan, and it will not stink to her old man.
But before the official burial, Hongzhou had one more important thing to do.
That is, ascend the throne!
Ah, yes, the new emperor can officially ascend the throne after twenty-seven days of mourning.
After the new emperor ascended the throne, it was time for the former emperor's concubines to move to the palace. Cining Palace, Shoukang Palace, Shou'an Palace, and Ningshou Palace had all been decorated. The former emperor's concubines were not too many, and they were enough to live in.
Shu Jin, as the queen conferred by the late emperor before his death, is undoubtedly the empress dowager - both the mother empress dowager and the mother empress dowager. Needless to say, Cining Palace belongs to her!
Tsk tsk, I think back then, Empress Dowager Wuya was also very greedy for this place. Unfortunately, there was Empress Dowager Xiaohui, and Empress Dowager Wuya had to endure the old woman's death in order to live in this most noble place.
As for Shu Jin, he officially moved in on the seventh day after his son ascended the throne, and even brought the Babu bed that he was used to sleeping in in Chengqian Palace.
In Shoukang Palace, Shu Jin gave it to Concubine Mao - ah no, she is Concubine Mao now, and Feng Keli also temporarily moved into the side hall of Shoukang Palace.
It stands to reason that the late emperor has already been buried, and the princess should return to the princess palace. However, Princess Mao asked the empress dowager to allow the princess to stay in the palace temporarily on the grounds that the princess had fetal gas, so that the imperial doctor could help her with the pregnancy.
Shu Jin naturally agreed without hesitation.
Anyway, the princess is a woman, so there is no hindrance.
"I send my regards to the Empress Dowager. May the Empress Dowager live a thousand years in peace!" Concubine Mao, whose husband had died, came to Cining Palace with a relieved look on her face.
The corpse of Yong Zheng, the dead ghost, was still cold, but Shu Jin's clothes were plain and simple. She smiled and asked Princess Mao to sit on the Arhat couch, and asked: "Is the statue of Feng Keli okay?"
Concubine Mao laughed and said: "It's much better now, I just have some morning sickness. I was afraid of bumping into the Queen Mother, so I didn't bring it to kowtow to you."
Shu Jin sighed and said: "She has traveled thousands of miles to go to Beijing for the funeral, and it is really hard. This is her first child, so she has to take good care of her. Just ask Feng Keli to live peacefully in Shoukang Palace, and there is no need to rush back to the princess mansion.
.”
These words were a huge reassurance. Concubine Mao smiled so much that the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes became much deeper, and her smile turned into a chrysanthemum.
Shu Jin laughed and asked Zhang Shoufa to present an origami, "This is the emblem proposed by the Ministry of Rites. Please help me see which one is better."
Needless to say, this is the title given to the Empress Dowager.
Above it are the three emblems of "Hirohito", "Yu Shou" and "Yi Shou".
Among them, the word "Hirohito" has been marked with a big red cross, which is obviously a rejection.
Concubine Mao looked at her nose and heart, and the word "benevolence" was obviously very good... Our Queen Mother was dissatisfied with the word "yu" bestowed by the late emperor.
Concubine Mao smiled and said, "To live a long life and live a long life, these two words are quite good."
Shu Jin smiled and nodded, "I think it's good too."
Concubine Mao whispered: "Why don't you call yourself 'Aijia'?"
Shu Jin said lightly: "I'm not sad." - I'm very happy!
Concubine Mao: You are so sincere.
Shu Jin picked up the vermilion brush and circled the word "Yi Shou", which was considered a choice.
After choosing, Shu Jin looked at Concubine Mao with a smile: "By the way, what emblem do you like?"
Concubine Mao was stunned.
Shu Jin smiled amiably: "That's it. I have discussed with the emperor and plan to honor you as a concubine and add a word to show my respect."
Concubine Mao stood up quickly and said: "How can I be called a concubine? How can I be a concubine when I have no heirs and a humble background?" Even Concubine Mi is more worthy than her!
Shu Jin smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will carry the Han military flag to your mother clan."
These words put Concubine Mao in a trance. Such honor could actually fall on her head. For a moment, Concubine Mao was moved to tears.
