A national mourning is different from ordinary people. The vigil has to be kept for a full twenty-seven days. All the royal relatives and relatives have to come to express their condolences. The prince can not be enthroned until the twenty-seventh day, but the enthronement ceremony has to be postponed for a year, and the new title of the country has to be postponed.
It has to be calculated from next year.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty..."
The cries and howls in Renhe Palace are endless. The custom of mourning has been around since ancient times. It has been more than twenty days since the night of the war, but people are still coming to express their condolences. Even Emperor Shunguo came to express his condolences.
After the funeral, the entire palace was dressed in mourning.
"My mother-in-law! If I continue to kneel down, I will have to accompany the late emperor..."
The concubines finally came to the back hall to drink tea, and they all complained endlessly. Almost no one in the entire harem had real feelings for Emperor Jiwu. Those who had real feelings were all in the cold palace, and those who had the ability were moving around with all their thoughts.
Put it on yourself and your family.
"Girls! Come with me quickly..."
A young eunuch suddenly ran into the back hall, and the princesses of the East Palace quickly walked out. A dozen of the distinguished concubines followed the young eunuch into the side hall in a tacit understanding, and directly asked people to guard the door.
.
Zhao Guanren wallowed in the harem all day long and slept in the queen's palace four days out of seven. The concubines almost became princesses, and the harem and the east palace were almost completely separated.
"The Yuan family is afraid that they will move across the river to rule. The Yuan family's troops are mobilizing in large numbers..."
The little eunuch said breathlessly: "The second and third masters of the Yuan family did not even finish observing filial piety, so they led the Qilin Army to the north of the Yangtze River. They have already begun to build a defense line on the riverside. The Tiger Army has also been transferred to the south bank of the river. It is said that
Advance to attack, retreat to defend!"
"..."
A dozen concubines looked at each other, and the princess frowned and said: "No wonder the little bitches in the East Palace ran so fast. They must have known about it first. What did the prince say?"
"It's not the prince's turn to worry about this matter. He is nothing in the capital..."
The little eunuch picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, and said: "The prince has only more than 60,000 people in the capital, and the heavy troops are on the border and the grassland. The water from far away cannot quench the thirst of the near. It is said that Hongluan has no objection this time, but the strange thing is
Your Majesty... No! Your Majesty didn’t say anything this time!”
"Concubine Hong!"
One of the queens said angrily: "You are such a hard-working pillow. Your family has been promoted step by step. The prince cheated on you again last night. Our sisters can't compete with you, but you have to tell us the truth, right?"
"Keep your voice down! The old ghost is standing in front of you, don't worry, he will turn into a ghost and come to you..."
Concubine Hong sat down triumphantly, and the little eunuch hurriedly stepped forward to beat her legs. She said contemptuously: "The prince is acting like a monster. He is crying to the Yuan family all day long about the prince insulting him, treating the late emperor's harem as his own home, and trying to unite with the Yuan family."
Let’s deal with our prince together!”
"this……"
One person hesitated and said: "If the two families join forces, can the prince be a rival?"
"Ha~ The Yuan family is also in internal strife. Crossing the river is just their own family grabbing territory..."
Concubine Hong said mockingly: "For the ownership of a jade dragon, the three rooms of the Yuan family are almost quarreling. Everyone knows that the prince has to return to the Heavenly Palace to resume his life, and it is impossible to stay and become the emperor. The Yuan family is out of their minds to offend him, otherwise Hong
Why didn't Luan stop him?"
"Let me tell you, the prince is the only one who is not enlightened. He is just like his mother..."
The princess curled her lips and said: "The poisonous fan can develop with peace of mind, but he doesn't win over the prince well and goes to join forces with the Yuan family. If he waits for the prince to pat his butt and leave, the Yuan family will kill him as soon as his brain gets hot. You little bastard
They go around talking bad about us!"
"If you don't do it for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. These are his father's exact words..."
Concubine Jingde sneered and said: "Look at all the old people in the dynasty. Who is not a tree? It is said that after the crown prince ascends the throne, he plans to grant amnesty to the whole world. He also wants to send us back out of the palace. Anyway, I don't want it. It's really hard to stay in the harem."
Life is worse than death!"
"Girls! Something big happened..."
one person

The palace maid suddenly pushed the door open, quickly closed the door and gasped: "The news just came from the Dragon Guards. Yuan Laoer found a corpse poison powder and said that after the prince ascends the throne, he will give him the entire Jiangbei as a fiefdom.
, and even said that their family deserves the kingdom!"
"This is bad..."
The ladies stood up in shock, and Concubine Hong even changed her expression: "Yuan Laoer is an arrogant person, he can do anything. If the poisonous powder falls into his hands, the prince will have nothing to do with him. It seems that
It’s not internal strife in their family, they really want to rule across the river!”
…
"Prince! It's so much fun now..."
Zhao Guanren sat in the royal study with his hands spread out and said to several princes: "I am just experiencing the emperor's life in the harem. I really want to be the emperor. I already became the emperor in Shunguo. You are not convinced and went to complain to the Yuan family. Now
Yuan Laoer wants half of your kingdom, will you give it or not?"
"Don't listen to people's nonsense. How could I possibly bother you sleeping in the harem overnight..."
The prince said angrily: "There are just a group of concubines on the left and right. Don't say that the prince doesn't care, and the late emperor also won't care. But Yuan Laoer is a madman. If he can find one copy of the corpse poison, he may find the remaining two.
We have to find a way to stop him!"
"You guys just take your time and play, I'm going back home anyway..."
Zhao Guanren stood up and said: "I have sent people to inform Shunguo. They will soon build the Great Wall at the border and make epidemic prevention preparations in every city. I will return to Shunguo after my wedding next month. I will
All military power is handed over to you, you go and fight to the death!"
"..."
The four princes looked at him in shock, and the prince was even more surprised: "You, do you really want to give me the military power? Are you kidding?"
"You are all going to poison me. I want military power and am waiting to die..."
Zhao Guanren said: "The third corpse poison is probably in Shunguo. My family and Xiaoke are all there. I have to take people back to look for it myself. At the same time, I sincerely hope that you can wait a little longer until we build the Great Wall.
, we are not afraid of all of you turning into corpses!"
"Don't worry!"
The prince said excitedly: "As soon as the twenty-seven days of mourning are over, I will immediately ascend the throne as emperor and personally preside over your wedding on June 18th. Yuan Laoer, I will try to delay it as much as possible. Don't be afraid of rumors these days.
It is still comfortable to serve in the harem, so you can live in the harem before marriage!"
"This is the tiger talisman of the Flying Tiger Army and the Thunderbolt Army. Don't let me down..."
Zhao Guanren put down two and a half tiger talismans, patted the prince's shoulder and turned away. The four princes looked at each other in disbelief. The third prince quickly picked up the tiger talisman to check it, and pinched himself hard to make sure it was not an hallucination.
extremely.
"Brother!"
The third prince was surprised and said: "It doesn't make sense! He doesn't need to hand over military power if he is afraid of corpse poison. He can just send someone here to take care of it. How can this be said?"
"You're stupid, the Tiger Talisman doesn't mean military power..."
The second prince said disdainfully: "You go out and try the dragon talisman. The imperial army will definitely treat you as fools. He nominally handed over the two armies of Jiangbei, but he just wants Yuan Laoer to do us. Then the two families will fight together."
If he is injured, he can take advantage!"
"You are all wrong. These two groups of Jiangbei troops have been isolated. It is useless for him to ask for it..."
The prince lowered his voice and said: "Actually, Chang Diji had already guessed yesterday that he would hand over two armies of troops and let us control Yuan Lao'er. The two Jiangbei armies are useless in his hands, but once they are in our hands
Come on, you’ll be alive in no time!”
"Isn't Chang Di Ji dead? How could there be another Chang Di Ji..."
The sixth prince who had been kidnapped was confused, but the prince said: "Don't worry too much. Anyway, Chang Diji is not dead. She is secretly helping us do things. She is in charge of Jinyiwei now, and those few things."
She is doing all the work for you!"
"Brother! I think you are too eager to get things done..."
The sixth prince shook his head and said: "Zhao Yunxuan is definitely not someone to be trifled with.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
We should instigate him to fight with the Yuan family, instead of us uniting with the Yuan family to fight him. In short, it is absolutely right to keep a low profile for a few years. If you rush to drive him out, big things will happen!"
"You've been his butt for half a month, and you've lost all your courage..."
The third prince said angrily: "People laugh at us as a bunch of spineless wimps. Zhao Yunxuan sleeps with our little girl in the harem every day. We should call him daddy. You can tolerate the concubine letting him play with you, but we can't do it. We can't do more in a day."
Tolerate!"
"Third brother!"
The sixth prince said angrily, "Don't listen to the wind. When did my concubine let him play with me? He caught two of my maids. He has never touched them at all. He just likes to talk and talk!"
"Okay! A man can bend and stretch, so this little thing is nothing..."
The prince waved his hand and said: "We can't fight for the time being, so we have to endure this tone. As long as we can gradually increase our strength and let Zhao Yunxuan live in drunken dreams in the harem, not to mention a group of widows left by the father, my concubine can make him
Come on, let me come in quickly!"
"Brother!"
Emperor Renfu quickly walked in and said: "The Yuan family has made a decision. The married daughter of the second wife will be the equal wife, and the eldest daughter of the third wife will take over Yu Jiaolong. This is equivalent to the two families joining forces to target the second Yuan.
Our plan to split the Yuan family was successful, but... Zhao Yunxuan will not marry me!"
"What?"
The four princes were all shocked. The prince hurriedly asked: "Who else can he marry if he doesn't marry you? He didn't say just now?"
"The envoy of Shunguo just officially informed me that I have a bad reputation..."
Princess Renfu said in frustration: "They chose the second daughter of King Renfu, Jingfu Zongji. King Ren is our sixth uncle, and Zhao Yunxuan will be my brother-in-law from now on. And the wedding will be held on July 1st, and we have to wait for the other princesses of the two countries to arrive.
There will be sixteen brides to marry him together!"
"Slow, wait..."
The prince asked in disbelief: "Why do the princesses of the other two countries have sixteen brides? How can there be so many people?"
"Alas~ The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom surrendered and promised to pay 60 million taels of silver in installments to Shun Kingdom, and to send six more princesses to Zhao Yunxuan as concubines..."
Emperor Renfu sighed and said: "Anchang State also married Shun State, marrying a princess to be his concubine, and a princess to be a nobleman. The remaining brides are from the Nanguo Duke's Mansion, Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, and so on.
There are four major families in the south of the Yangtze River, each marrying a daughter. This is really a marriage between four countries, and everyone is celebrating, except our family has nothing to worry about!"
"How could this happen? Why are all these people attracted by him..."
The prince's eyes were as wide as a dying toad, and the other two princes were also dumbfounded.
"Alas~ It seems that Zhao Yunxuan is going to completely separate from our family..."
The Sixth Prince sighed: "The Renwang is not of our family's blood at all, he is just the adopted son of the late emperor, and Zhao Yunxuan is not lewd at all. He only entered the harem to discuss business!"
"What the hell are you farting at? How can Zhao Yunxuan not be lewd..."
The third prince stared at him angrily, and the sixth prince smiled bitterly and said: "You don't know him, Zhao Yunxuan never sleeps with worthless women, they have a lingo... business sleep, sleeping is just to promote each other's relationship, such as Nan Guogong,
Isn’t it the royal concubine’s natal family?”
"That's right! And Concubine Hong's natal family is also one of the four major families..."
The second prince suddenly came to his senses. The prince immediately slapped himself hard and said angrily: "This bastard actually slept in the harem while sleeping on business. I naively thought he was just a villain and ran away.
Go to the harem and live in a dream!"
"If you say that, I have no value anymore, right..."
Emperor Renfu stared blankly at the sixth prince, who shrugged and said: "I don't know whether to say you are short-sighted or long-term. You can't even see your own interests. How can the woman married by the late emperor be a loser? And
Yuan Laoer was able to find the poisonous powder before you guys, it’s really... I’m going to die too!"
