Wishing You Eternal Happiness Chapter 984: :Death of the Crown Prince
Yin Huaixi nodded: "With the support of the royalist party, Empress Ning naturally seized the opportunity to organize the funeral ceremony for the Queen Mother."
Yu Youyao was suddenly shocked: "As the direct concubine, Queen Ning has an advantage in status, but Concubine Lan has been in charge of the harem for many years, so she may not be able to compete. But now, Ning Yuanbo's case is being raised again, and Concubine Lan is deeply involved. Among them, naturally there was no way to do anything, so Empress Ning took advantage of the opportunity and stepped in, effortlessly taking over the task of presiding over the funeral ceremony for the Queen Mother."
From this point of view, Queen Ning’s scheme goes beyond Ning Yuanbo’s.
It was clearly an idea to kill two birds with one stone.
Earlier, Empress Ning was attending to illnesses in Shouyan Palace. The imperial doctors took pulses, prescribed prescriptions, and prepared medicines to guard against Empress Ning, but the Queen Mother's physical condition could not be hidden from anyone.
Empress Ning had a good grasp of the Queen Mother's condition, so she could take advantage of it and make such a calculation accurately.
Xu had already begun planning when the Queen Mother became seriously ill.
Yin Huaixi said: "Queen Ning will take this opportunity to recruit the Queen Mother's contacts in and outside the palace for many years. At the same time, she will also organize the national funeral to eradicate the influence of Concubine Lan and Concubine Xu in the palace. ."
Yu Youyao took it seriously: "Throughout the dynasties, many people have been convicted of national mourning. This is a blatant and logical opportunity."
Since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, there has been a practice of sacrificial burial. Later, because Emperor Mingzong only doted on the maids around him, he was worried that after his death, his beloved woman would be tragically buried, so he abolished the system of human sacrifice. Even later, the great palace maiden's beauty died and she was martyred, but she still did not recover.
Although the system of human sacrifice has been abolished, it does not mean that people will not die.
As the saying goes, the passing of an emperor, a courtier, or a noble person is the end of life and the change of power in the harem. It is often at this time that the struggle is the most intense.
There are never a few people who die in vain.
First of all, almost all the people in the Shouyan Palace will face the fate of being sentenced to death or secretly executed. There are at least two to three hundred people.
In addition, many palace residents who were implicated could not escape death.
Due to various reasons, there are countless palace people who died in the power changes and struggles in the harem.
When the king of **** fights, the kid suffers.
At least three to five hundred people would die, perhaps thousands, or even thousands.
Therefore, this is also the best time to gather connections and win over people's hearts. No one wants to die. If you don't want to die, you can only find a home and seek asylum.
The change of power in the harem also directly affected the previous dynasty. During the national mourning period, everyone’s funeral rituals and mourning systems were almost strict. Everything from clothing, makeup, expressions, gestures, and even every word and deed must be carefully controlled. Be careful and cautious, and if there is even the slightest mistake, you will be labeled as "disrespectful" and you will not even have a chance to redress your grievances.
It is also a good time to eliminate dissidents.
Based on this, how can this be killing two birds with one stone?
Clearly killing three birds with one stone.
Yu Youyao had a sigh on her face: "As expected, she is the Empress Dowager Ning who climbed high and high in the nightmare."
One wave has not subsided, another wave has arisen, the Queen Mother’s funeral has not yet been decided, and there is another turmoil in Jingzhao——
Liang Jingye, the eldest son of Prince Liang, was poisoned and died tragically at home.
When the shocking news reached the court, it immediately stirred up waves.
As we all know, the Crown Prince of Liang came to Beijing alone, with only two boys who had been serving him since childhood. The emperor personally gave him a mansion and a number of servants.
Everyone in Liangzhou Mansion was from the imperial court.
It is intriguing that Prince Liang was poisoned and died tragically at home.
At present, the emperor is seriously ill, the Queen Mother has passed away, and the death of Prince Liang seems to represent a certain message. For a time, the government and the public are in panic, as if they are facing a formidable enemy.
The cabinet urgently convened the ministers to discuss the matter, and jointly wrote a document for seizing love. They quickly sent people to send it to the Yu clan, asking Yu Zong to return to the court carefully and reinstate his official position.
At this time, only the chief minister of the cabinet can assist the country in a clear and righteous manner. Asking Yu Zong to carefully seize love and return it to the court can also stabilize the government's agenda and ease the fight for the throne.
The meeting hall was completely silent, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Old Yu Ge had no choice but to say: "Aren't we going to discuss something? Everyone has made a sawed gourd, how can we discuss this matter? We can't wait until Master Yu returns to the court to discuss it!"
But Prince Liang’s death can be delayed? !
Master Qi was the first to speak: "How do you want to discuss this matter? The Queen Mother passed away, and there is not even a serious person in charge of the government inside and outside the palace. The matter involves the vassal king, and it is a serious matter. Are we, the ministers, allowed to make unreasonable opinions? The key is to invite the emperor to the court as soon as possible to take charge of the affairs of the court."
If the Emperor doesn't come out, this matter can't even be discussed, how else should we deal with it? !
The Marquis of Zhen Guo glanced at him. This Lao Qi, relying on his status as a member of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, really dared to say anything, and he still wanted to get into trouble after all this time.
The Great Zhou Dynasty governed the country with "loyalty" and "filial piety". If the emperor could manage the affairs of the court, wouldn't he even survive the death of the queen mother? !
However, the death of Liang Shizi made him think about what Ming Zhao had told him before about the "true and false prince" theory. If the Liang King really arranged a "true and false prince", then his heart should be Punish...
Zhen Guohou's face became very ugly.
He subconsciously looked at Mr. Yu Ge. Mr. Yu Ge looked like a god, but the slightly drooped corners of his mouth also revealed his solemn mood.
What he can guess, not only Mr. Yu Ge, but everyone here can guess it.
Therefore, the courtiers could temporarily put aside their desire to seize power and jointly wrote a love letter asking Yu Zongshen to return to the court to take charge of the overall situation.
As soon as Mr. Qi said what he said, other officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate seemed to have received some kind of signal and echoed his words one after another.
"This matter is so serious that we dare not discuss it arbitrarily, and we will ask the emperor to make a decision at court."
"A country cannot live without a king for a day. The current situation is turbulent. Why can't the emperor come to court? There must be an explanation for this matter~IndoMTL.com~ It has been covered up, and why?"
"The Queen Mother passed away, and all funeral matters need to be decided by the Emperor."
"The death of Prince Liang has stirred up the whole court. It is related to the country. The emperor should come to the court to find the murderer, appease the king of Liang and the vassals everywhere, so as to stabilize the country and stabilize the people's hearts. This is the top priority..."
"The death of the dignified prince of the vassal in Beijing without any explanation is simply shocking. This matter not only damages the majesty of the court, but also damages the prestige of the emperor. We should give an explanation to King Liang as soon as possible, otherwise..."
"..."
No matter whether it is to give an explanation to King Liang or to appease the vassal king, the emperor can only come forward.
Old Yu Ge sighed slightly. No one here knew that the emperor was seriously ill and could no longer attend court.
But who knows the specific situation? There really needs to be an explanation for what the emperor's dragon body is like. It can't be hung up and down all the time. No matter what you do, you worry about this and worry about that. You can't let go, and you are constrained everywhere.
