==Chapter 106Burial==
The sun sets over the dense river, the sky suddenly becomes dark, and the mountains and rivers lose their color, just like the end of winter.
He saddled his horse, tightened the reins, swooped down the hillside, and ran towards the capital. The endless mountain peaks and the endless river water quickly retreated in his peripheral vision.
The moon sets, rises, dawns and dusk, non-stop. It takes Xiao Yu less than six days to travel nearly a thousand miles from Mihe to the capital.
Queen Chunyi passed away on August 5th, and the whole city was filled with mourning and silent cheers. It seemed that no one could understand that the daughter of the Su family was truly grieving.
After entering the palace, Xiao Yu went straight to Qianqing Palace.
According to the funeral ceremony of the empress of the Zhou Dynasty, after the death of the empress, Zi Palace had to stay in Qianqing Palace for half a month. However, because the emperor was not in the palace, it stayed longer.
Several banquets were set up at the gate of the Qianqing Dynasty, and Danqi was hung.
The **** and the maid knelt on the ground in plain clothes. Xiao Yu strode in. The concubine in the harem nodded and said, "I respectfully welcome your majesty back to the court."
Xiao Yu looked at Zi Palace, which was covered with a yellow tent, and said calmly, "Get out."
The concubines looked at each other, bowed and retreated.
Eunuch Sheng glanced at the emperor's chapped lips and hurriedly brought a cup of tea over, saying, "Your Majesty, please drink some water first."
"Open the coffin."
Eunuch Sheng was startled and then said after a moment: "Your Majesty, the empress's palace has been nailed. I'm afraid if I open the coffin now..."
Xiao Yu's voice was filled with forbearing violence, "I'm going to open the coffin."
Gonggong Sheng immediately bowed and said: "I will call for someone right now."
The thick coffin lid was reopened, and there was silence in the hall. Xiao Yu walked over step by step and almost stubbornly saw her for the last time.
With just one glance, you can know what it feels like to be heartbroken in this world.
She lay on top of the golden jewelry, closing her eyes silently. There was no care, no sadness or joy between her brows.
He reached in with trembling hand and touched her cold fingertips.
Hold gently.
His blood was still hot, but he could no longer cover her.
The emperor's figure was slightly swaying, and Eunuch Sheng was behind him: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, please come over. I have something to discuss with Your Majesty..."
Xiao Yu turned around and said, "I understand."
Eunuch Sheng whispered: "Your Majesty, will you close the coffin?"
Xiao Yu: "Close it."
Cining Palace.
The Queen Mother was dressed in plain clothes and her eyes were a little red. When she saw him coming, she said softly: "Sir, please sit down quickly."
Xiao Yu's long eyelashes drooped slightly and said lightly: "Greetings to the Queen Mother."
The Empress Dowager handed him the document from the Supervisor of Ceremonies for punishing the palace servants, "The Ai family originally believed that the Queen left due to excessive stress and difficulty in childbirth, but Fu Ying, the eldest maid of Kunning Palace, identified Shang. Xu Hualan, the official of the Bureau of Ceremonies, was suspected of causing harm. The Ai family followed up and found out that Xu Hualan's younger brother was actually a scholar under Su Jingbei's command. The Kunning Palace was heavily guarded and not even a fly could fly in. Who knows, Xu Hualan actually took a **** handkerchief and stimulated the queen by thinking about blood debt and blood repayment. I don’t know why the queen kept her by her side to serve..."
The Queen Mother continued: "Xu Shangyi's crime of murdering the Queen is unforgivable, and Ling Chi should be sentenced to death. However, the Ai family thought that Your Majesty might inquire in person, so they spared her life for the time being."
This is the meaning of letting you check.
The Empress Dowager Chu looked at Xiao Yu's cold eyes and sighed: "Mr., come and go, it's because the Ai family didn't take good care of her."
Xiao Yu said calmly: "The eldest maid of Kunning Palace, Fu Ying, and the **** Sheng Gui, where are they?"
Empress Dowager Chu: "Those in Kunning Palace are all loyal to the Lord. Xu Shangyi confessed his sins and left with the Lord."
The hall fell into a long silence.
"Does the Queen Mother have anything else to do?"
Xiao Yu looked into the eyes of the Empress Dowager Chu, folded the lid, and placed it on the table. Eunuch Zhang bowed and brought the tea.
Hearing his address, the Queen Mother Chu moved her eyebrows slightly, "There is one more thing, related to the Queen's funeral."
Xiao Yu knew what the court said and said directly: "She is my first wife and she should be enthroned in the imperial mausoleum."
The Queen Mother of Chu silently took out a note and handed it to Xiao Yu, "This was written by Aling when her fetus was moving. The emperor should read it."
Beautiful small handwriting——
The guilty minister Su asked to be buried in the forest instead of entering the imperial mausoleum.
Xiao Yu held the note, his joints faintly tingling, and his eyes became darker: "Since she has entered the royal jade certificate, the Su family's crimes have nothing to do with her. What about the Queen Mother?"
"Then we will do it according to your majesty's wishes." The Queen Mother of Chu looked at the blood on his palms from the reins and said, "Mother knows that you feel uncomfortable, but you are the emperor. , Even the common people of heaven and earth should cherish their own bodies."
After a long silence, Xiao Yu said: "The queen passed away, and I can only trouble the queen mother to take care of the power of the six palaces. As for the emperor..."
Xiao Yu turned his head and looked at Eunuch Sheng: "Send him to Shou'an Palace in a moment."
The Empress Dowager Chu's eyes froze, and Eunuch Zhang quickly said: "Your Majesty, the Emperor has only been sleeping soundly in the Empress Dowager's arms recently, without crying or making trouble. You must not send him to... ...."
"Who gave you the guts!"
Xiao Yu suddenly shook his head. The table in front of him was knocked to the ground with a bang, and the cups were shattered on the ground. He was so frightened that Eunuch Zhang shrank his shoulders and knelt directly on the ground, tapping his forehead on the ground. "My slave made a mistake, is it?" The slave deserves to die."
The Empress Dowager Chu pinched the Buddhist beads in her hand, her heart as clear as a mirror, the emperor's anger was directed at her.
She tilted her head and said to Eunuch Zhang: "I have lost my decency before the emperor, so I went to invite myself."
Eunuch Zhang: "Yes."
The emperor left Cining Palace and went to the Supervisor of Ceremonies in person.
The emperor who had just returned from the battlefield was full of hostility. The chief **** was frightened of the new emperor and quickly interrogated Xu Hualan. Several details were revealed.
That night, Xu Shangyi was sentenced to lingchi, the imperial court official was dismissed from office, and countless maids and eunuchs were punished.
The next night, Eunuch Zhang dragged his **** body back to serve the Queen Mother,
The Queen Mother Chu glanced at him and said, "If you go with a board, can you still stand?"
Eunuch Zhang knelt down on his horse and said, "Slave, I thank the Queen Mother for your mercy."
The Queen Mother Chu sneered: "Get up."
Eunuch Zhang sighed: "Your Majesty, this time, I am afraid that you are resentful of the Queen Mother..."
"He complained about the Ai family's ulterior motives." The Queen Mother of Chu said: "But if the Ai family did not stand by and watch, and really spared the Su family's life, I'm afraid that if Ah Hang enters the palace, she will always be punished by her as a criminal. His daughter was crushed on top of her head, and her life was 60,000, but she died unjustly."
Eunuch Zhang: "The Emperor..."
"How can a young couple not feel sad when they are separated for life and death?" The Queen Mother of Chu waved her hand: "He has a cold temperament, and he must be sad. Let him go for now."
****************
Su Ling was buried in that place. The autumn colors were thick, so he moved Zi Palace to the funeral palace outside Xihua Gate.
The funeral ceremony was extraordinarily solemn, with the queen's ceremonial carriage fully arranged. Eight people, including school captains and civilian husbands, were selected to carry the prince. The prince entered the mausoleum, and the princes, princes, men, and ladies knelt down in order to offer libations. (1)
The emperor was dressed in plain clothes, read sacrificial texts, offered wine, and personally escorted Queen Chunyi to the imperial mausoleum. For five hours, not even his eyes turned red. All the officials bowed their heads and sighed, suddenly understanding what was going on. The emperor is merciless.
Two seven eminent monks recited her prayers.
Xiao Yu’s expression did not change and he remained silent:
Aling, forgive me for being selfish. I didn’t want to be alone, so I disobeyed your wishes.
Since ancient times, husband and wife were born and died in the same quilt.
You take the first step, and a hundred years later, on the road to Huangquan, I will personally apologize to you.
As night fell, the emperor drove back to the palace.
Eunuch Sheng came over, tried his best to smile, and said: "The Emperor opened his eyes today, and I took a few glances at him. His beautiful jade snow is very cute, and he looks very much like your Majesty. , Your Majesty, would you like to go to Shouan Palace?"
Xiao Yu said calmly: "Just the Queen of Heaven."
Eunuch Sheng put away his smile and his shoulders sank.
Xiao Yu took the ram's horn lantern from Eunuch Sheng's hand and turned around to go to her Kunning Palace.
No one could have imagined that the resolute and resolute man who scolded Fang Qiu on the border would kneel down as if powerless when he looked at the empty inner hall when he stepped into Kunning Palace. collapse.
The blood flow throughout the body stopped, and a bone-chilling chill spread to all the limbs.
He slowly bowed his back, and all the injuries on his body seemed to hurt. His chest kept tightening, and he could hardly breathe.
After leaving the palace, he sat in the Kunning Palace, holding a gold flower inlaid with red pearls and shaking it, without dripping water or saying a word.
Eunuch Sheng was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and begged him to take care of the dragon body, "Your Majesty, if your Majesty is still here, I definitely don't want to see you like this."
The emperor let out a low "ho", and the tears that persisted in his eyes fell straight on his clothes, and he fainted.
His voice was extremely deep, as if he was mumbling to himself, "I have no home anymore."
"There is no wife anymore."
