The next morning, the funeral procession began. More than 20,000 people wearing sackcloth and wearing mourning escorted the coffins of Prince Yan and his son through the streets. Many officers and soldiers held white flags, eunuchs carried various paper-wrapped oxen and horses, and palace maids scattered paper money from time to time. , ninety-nine and eighty-one people carried the red lacquered coffin of King Yan, and the prince's coffin at the back was carried by eighty-eight and sixty-four people, heading to the mausoleum outside the city in a mighty manner, with nearly a hundred thousand people kneeling on both sides of the street. Sad farewell.?
The mausoleum of King Yan has been built long ago and is very grand. The coffin and coffin were immediately transported there, and the prince was buried next to his father, so he was with him in life and death.
The funeral procession came to the outside of the city and headed west. Another procession also left the city gate and ran to the east, but it was the Queen Mother and her party. Now the old man was sitting on the phoenix and heading to Yulian Temple to practice, and there were hundreds of eunuchs and maids following him. In the past, they all spent the rest of their lives in the company of the ancient Buddha with a solitary lamp in the nunnery.
The old face was expressionless, but she couldn't hide the look of sadness in her eyes. She was almost despairing. Her son and grandson were dead, so what was the point of her still being alive?
There were thousands of officers and soldiers on top of the city tower, and the majestic general among them was Qiu Yu. He watched the Queen Mother and her entourage gradually go away with cold eyes, and couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth. He felt very good, the old guy finally left. Already.
At present, the order in the capital is maintained by Qiu Yu, just in case. He is also a high-ranking figure. Thinking of what happened before, it feels like a dream. King Yun is now in the prison of Qintian Prison. Thanks to his The foresight allowed the three beauties to return to Chanshang Peak, otherwise one can imagine Ji Yun's feelings. After all, they are father and daughter no matter what, and no one can change the fact.
Night has come, inside the palace, in Concubine Yan's luxurious bedroom, the most beautiful woman in the Yan Kingdom is lying on the bed, her exquisite curves exposed, full of charming charm.
Ji Yue'er in front of her opened her red lips and said softly: "Queen mother, the third brother finally succeeded to the throne. King Yun is imprisoned in prison. It stands to reason that our side will win, but the prime minister has also been dismissed, and the Queen Mother is leaving Yulian Nunnery. When I was practicing, I issued a decree that the harem was not allowed to participate in the government affairs. My aunt, Princess Yanshan, has become the regent. What should we do now?"
Concubine Yan lazily stood up and leaned on the soft pillow, and said calmly: "Let nature take its course. I don't have to get involved in the affairs of the court, but I just can't take a breath. I think that when Prince Yun repeatedly opposed me, how many times will it be?" This time I led the ministers to propose to King Yan that I should abolish my position as a noble concubine. Thanks to my mother's humiliation and heavy burden, I served your father on thin ice, so I didn't suffer bad luck. Since he was unkind, don't blame me for being unjust. This time the old man finally got his comeuppance."
Ji Yue'er asked in confusion, "But why did Prince Yun do that?"
Concubine Yan snorted: "This guy is a man with a human face and a beast's heart. He is sanctimonious on the surface, but he is filthy in his heart. He says that I bring harm to the country and the people, and he does whatever it takes to please the king, so that King Yan neglects the government. In fact, he covets my beauty." But he didn't succeed, so he held a grudge."
"Ah..." Ji Yuer's eyes widened and she said in surprise: "Prince Yun, he actually wants to seduce you. This is too outrageous. You are his sister-in-law."
When the old guy was mentioned, Concubine Yan became very angry, with a sullen look on her face, "Do you think he is a good guy? One time when your father was drunk, he had the audacity to hug me and want to have no mercy. present."
"Then what happened?"
Concubine Yan hummed: "I almost pulled him off when I caught him. This guy's face turned green with pain. He begged for mercy before giving up. He also received a sharp scolding from his mother, which led to a feud."
Ji Yue'er was amused and giggled, "Queen Mother, you are so domineering. You almost made King Yun a eunuch. I know, King Yun turned into hatred out of love."
Concubine Yan curled her lips and said disapprovingly: "There is no love at all. He simply wants to possess this palace and everything in the world, whether it is kings, mountains or beautiful women."
Ji Yue'er smiled and said, "That's it. The queen mother is the most beautiful woman in the world. Of course Prince Yun will covet you. Fortunately, you are passionate about my father and you can't let him succeed in seducing her."
"Bullshit." A look of anger appeared on her charming face, and Concubine Yan said bitterly: "I have no deep affection for your father, only hatred. He took over my youth and didn't know how to cherish it. How could I ever have the slightest care?
Sometimes he would take out his anger on me and would beat or scold me. All these years were wasted and I was nothing more than his plaything. As for King Yun, he is also a piece of shit, not much better and makes people hate him."
Ji Yue'er was stunned, and finally understood her mother's pain. She also lay down, hugged her mother's slender waist, and said considerately: "It's okay this time. All the men who have hurt you have left.
There is no need to live a life of worry and fear.”
Concubine Yan said quietly: "I hope so, but it's a pity that the prime minister has been dismissed, and now our power in the court has been reduced."
"It doesn't matter, there is Xiaoyu. He is now a general and has a bright future. One day he will become a high-ranking figure." Ji Yuer said with a smile, her face full of happiness.
Mentioning this unavoidable young man, Concubine Yan's bright eyes flashed with light, and many charming pictures appeared in her mind. She nodded gently, "Yes, our mother still has him to rely on. As for the three of you,
Brother, that’s a useless embroidered pillow…”
At the same time, in Princess Yanshan's mansion, another mother and son were also chatting, that is, Ji Yurong and her adopted son Qiu Yu. The situation in the capital is currently under control, but looking at the entire Yan Empire, the current situation is extremely serious.
The Chu army invaded, and the influence of King Yun still existed inside, which made the couple quite afraid. Now they got together to discuss countermeasures.
Looking at the young face of the adopted son with bright eyes, Ji Yurong said happily: "Xiaoyu, you have become a general now. You must remember the emperor's grace and don't let down the expectations of the emperor and even your mother."
Qiu Yu said without hesitation: "Mom, don't worry, my child will definitely do his best to serve the country."
Ji Yurong nodded and changed the topic, "What should we do with the West Route Army? How to deal with it?"
A gloomy look appeared in Qiu Yu's eyes, and he said solemnly: "You also know that this team is controlled by King Yun. There are great hidden dangers. There is no telling when it will explode. If the management of more than 100,000 soldiers is strengthened, it should
There is no problem, but the commander and even all senior military attachés must be punished before you can take full control."
"It makes sense..." Ji Yurong agreed very much with what her adopted son said, and she also had an idea, "The new king's enthronement ceremony is about to be held, so let's summon the commander-in-chief of the West Route Army and win it in one fell swoop."
Qiu Yu smiled and nodded, "Heroes see the same thing, and I have the same idea."
