Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty: Nine hundred and eighty-five Qianling Mausoleum


   Xiao Shu's courtyard is close to Qianling, but even from this quiet and unique courtyard, it takes half an hour to walk to the entrance of Qianling.

   This is not to say that when Concubine Xiao Shu built the courtyard, she deliberately chose the entrance away from the Qianling Tomb, but because the surroundings of Qianling are invisible except for the soldiers who guard the tomb and the people who maintain the tomb. This expanded the scope of Qianling, which made Concubine Xiao Shu had to choose this place when she was building the courtyard.

   Li Hong, Wu Mei, Xiao Shu Fei and others walked to the mausoleum to make sacrifices on the second day. In addition to the main Taichang Temple, there was also a ritual ministry.

   For half a day, although the steps of worship have been simplified as much as possible, whether it is an official of Taichang Temple or an official of the Ministry of Ritual, it even feels that this is better than your Majesty’s leading civil and military officials to worship. Let yourself feel exhausted.

   And this kind of tiredness is not the tiredness of large-scale worship, but a kind of heart tiredness, because for them, the royal private worship, various rules and rituals, have been cut by your Majesty. Eight.

   But even if this is the case, they still need to carefully watch your Majesty’s face during the whole morning worship process. Once His Majesty’s face becomes dissatisfied, or when he hums, they need to skip it immediately This step immediately follows the next step.

   So in their opinion, they had already racked their brains and planned a very simple ceremony, or was it because of your majesty’s dissatisfaction and disgusting cumbersome temper that the whole ceremony was intermittent, and I discussed with them for nearly half a month The result is completely contrary.

   "You all go back first, I'll be here quietly and say a few words to your father." After the main mausoleum, which was never completely sealed, came out, he looked at the huge stone gate, Wu Mei side Said while walking outside.

   "Mother, my son will accompany you." Li Hong held Wu Mei's arm, glanced at Li Lingyue on the other side, and whispered.

  History has long been changed, but what never changed Wu Mei’s original intention was that she was buried with her father after death, and the queen mother who entered the tomb is somewhat sad, although the father has passed away for more than three years. Up.

   Wu Mei walked a long way, then turned around, looked at the entire outline of the main mausoleum, looked at the lush trees and the carved stone beasts, etc., Wu Mei sighed and said: "Also, Hong Er stays. Just stay with me."

   "After the mother is right, Li Xian and the others will have to go back to Chang'an today..." Li Hong said softly beside Wu Mei. After all, if you don't tell the queen, you might think that Li Xian and the others are just under pressure. So coming here is just a cutscene.

  "The sixth, seventh, and eighth are busy with things, even Li Lingyue has important things, why are you the king of a country all right? Go back, since everything is going on, get busy Go." Wu Mei waved her hand, and then took the lead on her own, walking along the pavement made of stones, to the back of the main mausoleum.

   "If the children are too busy to make friends, then they will all have to be ashamed and angry? As the ministers, it is their duty to divide the worries for the king, so they should be busy." Li Hong looked at Li. Xian and others rolled their eyes at themselves, and then after walking not far, Wu Mei stood there and looked far away and saluted.

   "Mother, the minister there has also returned to Chang'an, don't be too sad for yourself, tell your son if you have something." Li Lingyue stood next to Wu Mei, the last one to leave.

   Even Pei Wanying, because of Li Ye’s investigation of Pei Qing’s case in Chang’an and so on, had to go back to Chang’an and stay in town. Although Bai Chun was in Chang’an, she would have nothing to do with the queen, but after all My eldest son is a little bit worried if he doesn't go back.

   Besides, Shangguan Wan'er, Yiyang, and Gao An stayed here, together with other court ladies, eunuchs, and your majesty accompanying them, Pei Wanying and others were not worried that Wu Mei would appear alone here.

   After everyone left, Wu Mei and Li Hong walked slowly on the path of the main mausoleum, looked back at Shangguan Wan'er and others behind him, and said slowly: "Go back, my palace and Your Majesty walked around at will, without you having to accompany us."

   "Go down." Li Hong repeated to Shangguan Wan'er, Yiyang and others, and then took two quick steps to catch up with Wu Mei's. r/>

   The mother and the son did not speak, like two lonely guardians, walking silently on the stone pavement, passing through the herd of stone animals, walking on the steps full of pine and cypress, step by step Walked above the mausoleum.

  "People die like autumn leaves, always wanting the fallen leaves to return to their roots, and they will survive all their lives, but in the end they are still a pile of loess, fighting for fame and fortune for a lifetime... In the end, no one will know what the world after death will be like ?"

  "Mother, don’t have to be so empathetic. Although this is inevitable, life and death, fame and fortune, even if it is rich and prosperous, are nothing but a passing moment. The son doesn’t think it’s necessary to take care of it. At the moment, how to live out of self is the best, and it can be regarded as the right father." The breeze blew, and Sha Sha’s voice brushed over the entire mausoleum, and also made Wu Mei’s white hair on the sideburns that were disturbed by the wind. It looks a bit more than in the past~IndoMTL.com~ You have been the emperor for ten years, right? "Wu Mei stood at the highest point of the main mausoleum, looked down at the entire Qianling Mausoleum, and asked with her gray hair close to her temples.

   "No, it seems that it's twelve or thirteen years." Li Hong stretched out his hand and took off the top of his head, letting the wind batter his long hair.

  "Under the world, I thought that the emperor’s throne was the most difficult to sit on, but who would have thought that only you, Li Hong, sat on this throne, and sitting so relaxed and leisurely every day, if your father had you back then This kind of courage and self-confidence will not go too early." Wu Mei is dressed in a palace costume and phoenix suit. Although she is old, her graceful and luxurious posture appears more and more rich.

   Li Hong is also a bright yellow robe. Like Wu Mei, it is naturally due to today's sacrifice, so he wears a more grand and formal dress.

   But even so, at this moment, the mother and son, who don't care about etiquette, are sitting together on a loess hill above the tomb.

   The two of them didn't speak, but looked at them quietly. At this moment, the whole Qianling Mausoleum seemed a little quiet under the wind and the sun.

   An unknown bird occasionally flies overhead, or stands behind the lush pines and pine trees, chirping and happily, and from time to time, they will suddenly quiet down, and then flutter their wings together and fly out of the pines and be in the air like After drawing a beautiful arc like a cloud, it plunged into the pine forest again.

   (ps: It’s almost the end, I suddenly feel a little bit upset.)
