Chapter 116: Die

The lively wedding banquet came to an abrupt end after the servant gave a message. Chang Shi took the place of Li Chaoge to send the guests out. Li Chaoge immediately returned to the main hall of the princess mansion, took off the gorgeous wedding clothes, and put on plain clothes.

The makeup of the bride is troublesome to dress up, but the disassembly is quick. Li Chaoge quickly changed back to his usual appearance, with narrow sleeves, waist boots, and a high bun. Li Chao, the singer arranging his sleeves, walked out of the dressing room and found that Gu Mingke had been waiting outside. Seeing her, Gu Mingke got up and said, “I will go with you?.”

Gu Mingke also changed his ordinary clothes, and suddenly changed from the crimson to pale blue, Li Chaoge was a little uncomfortable. Li Chaoge was slightly startled: “You will go to court tomorrow…”

“At this time, what do you still pay attention to doing?” Gu Mingke said, “The saint is in a coma, and I should do my filial piety as a servant. I will accompany you into the palace.”

Li Chaoge wanted to say no, she could handle these things. But? In the end, she didn’t say anything, and nodded slightly: “Okay.”

Li Chaoge was accustomed to self-defeating himself in his previous life, but he forgot that the husband and wife were one entity. No matter what happened, they should face each other together.

Li Chaoge finally realized that this life is different from his previous life.

Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke changed their clothes and entered the palace immediately. Li Huai and Li Changle also attended Li Chaoge’s wedding banquet, but they didn’t need to change their clothes. After receiving a letter from the Queen, they immediately set up a car and entered the palace.

Li Chaoge was the last one to arrive, and the palace people saw Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke coming and hurried in? The message was sent: “The Queen of Heaven, Princess Sheng Yuan and the Madam are here.”

The hall of Daye was bleak. When the Queen heard Li Chaoge coming, she reluctantly cheered up: “Bring them in quickly.”

Li Chaoge carried the clothes into the hall. She stepped into the inner hall and saw the emperor lying on the bed without any response. Her heart was tight, and she immediately ran over: “Sage! Queen, what happened to the sage?”

When she was sent off to marry tomorrow? The emperor was fine. It was only an hour, how could the emperor suddenly become like this?

The Queen was sitting on the edge of the emperor’s cave. She was still wearing a grand queen’s gown. However, the Queen’s face was pale, and she looked tired, and she was very different from the glamorous appearance at the ceremony.

The queen held her eyebrows. In just half a year, she was obviously older?: “After you left the palace, the saint was very happy and talked a lot with me. Later, he said that he was a little tired, so I asked him to sleep. Who wants to…”

Li Chaoge looked at the falling emperor, he closed his eyes ignorantly, his face was sallow, his lips were gray, and he couldn’t get angry. Li Chaoge sank heavily.

She didn’t arrive in the eastern capital until November 24 in her previous life, Yonghui. At that time, Li Shan and Li Zeju had passed away. Li Chaoge had never seen his father and brother in his previous life, and Li Ze never knew that Li Chaoge was still alive. In this life, she returned to Dongdu two years earlier and finally realized the regrets of her previous life. Unexpectedly, she would have to watch her brother and father leave one after another.

Li Chaoge asked?: “Where is the imperial doctor? Let the imperial doctor come to check the pulse.”

The imperial physician from the Imperial Medical Office had been waiting by the side for a long time. Hearing the words, the imperial physician who was the leader stepped forward and saluted Li Chaoge: “Return to Princess Sheng Yuan, the old minister has already seen the pulse of the saint. The saint…the pulse is weak. The end is reached. Please make preparations for the Queen, Prince and Princess as early as possible.”

Prepare early? What are you going to do? Li Chaoge’s eyes suddenly sore, and Li Changle next to him was already crying. When the people in the hall saw this, they hurried to pacify Li Changle.

Li Chaoge lowered his head and quietly wiped away the teardrops from the corners of his eyes. Everyone’s attention was on Li Changle, and no one noticed Li Chaoge. Li Chaoge adjusted his emotions, raised his head and sat down, suddenly covering the back of his hand with a slightly cool palm.

Li Chaoge turned his head and saw Gu Mingke staring ahead, comforting her silently.

His palm is very warm, almost cold. But? Li Chaoge’s heart gradually settled down, yes? Ah, birth, old age, sickness and death are beyond the reach of manpower. What Li Chaoge can do is to quietly accompany the emperor through the last period of time.

The crowd stood silently in front of the emperor’s sickbed, and no one wanted to speak. Later, the queen couldn’t stand it, and was persuaded by the palace staff and Li Chaoge to go back? After a while, Li Changle couldn’t stop dozing off, and Li Huai took someone to settle Li Changle to rest. In the end, only Li Chaoge remained in the hall.

Gu Mingke has been by Li Chaoge’s side. When the sky is about to dawn, he brought Li Chaoge water and said, “Moisten your throat. You stayed all night, beware that your body can’t hold it.”

Li Chaoge took the water silently, a glass of water poured into her throat, but she didn’t feel anything. The quietness in the Daye Hall could hear the sound of green smoke rising. After a while, Li Chaoge’s somewhat hoarse voice sounded: “This spring, I shouldn’t be out of Beijing, I should stay in Dongdu forever.”

At the beginning of the year, Li Chaoge led his troops to Chawu Temple in Fenzhou. He went there for four months and didn’t come back until seven days ago. She has been running around since she met each other and rarely gets along with the emperor. She always felt that big things mattered, and her children were not in a hurry, but she didn’t expect that she would never have a chance again.

Gu Mingke was quietly by her side. He rolled up the hair scattered on her sideburns and said, “Don’t think about it. As a daughter, you have done nothing wrong. The saint has high hopes for you. Wait until he wakes up. I don’t want to watch you think about it and blame yourself indiscriminately.”

Li Chaoge closed his eyes, feeling very tired. Li Chaoge said in a low voice, “I have been wandering outside for ten years. Even when I come back, I always run around and run west. I haven’t been with the saint for a few days. When my daughter is like me, it’s really dereliction of duty. ”

What was Gu Mingke about to say? He suddenly felt the emperor’s breath change? He immediately looked down. Li Chaoge also raised his head, seeing the emperor’s fingertips faintly moving, and then he opened his eyes laboriously.

Li Chaoge was surprised and delighted, and immediately said to the attendant: “The saint is awake, quickly declare the emperor, and inform the queen!”

Tianhou, Li Huai, and Li Changle rushed over quickly. The emperor was surrounded by the crowd, and the imperial doctor had just received a pulse. The Queen hurried over, and when she saw the emperor, her tears almost fell: “Sage.”

The emperor just included the ginseng film, and now he looks much better in spirit? Tianhou felt extremely painful when she thought of the four words “Huiguangfanzhao”.

Tianhou sat down on the edge of the cave, and Li Chaoge, Li Huai, and Li Changle surrounded them. The Emperor did not notify the other princes and princes of such a serious matter. Li Xuyuan is in Shouzhou, and Li Zhen is already a stranger. Li Zhen did not attend Li Chaoge’s wedding yesterday, and missed the first-hand news. When she heard the wind later, she would not be able to leave the princess mansion.

The emperor looked around and said, “You are all here. Where is the prince?”

Everyone was stunned, and the emperor immediately reacted, muttering: “Is I confused, the prince has passed away from illness.”

Now Li Huai has entered the East Palace, but the “prince” in the emperor’s mouth obviously refers to Li Shan.

The Queen turned his face to wipe his tears, Li Chaoge felt uncomfortable, and silently lowered his head. Li Changle covered his mouth and cried. Li Huai clenched his fists hard and shouted “Sage”, but couldn’t say anything else.

The emperor looked very calm. He knew that his time limit was approaching. He had suffered from illnesses over the years, and now it is time to get rid of him. The emperor said: “It’s nothing? It’s so easy to cry. People are mortal. As the emperor, my sons and daughters, the whole world rises, and I have no regrets. Crown Prince Li Huai is smart and honest, and he is an emperor’s weapon, you etc. ?When I wholeheartedly assist the prince, glorify the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. After I leave, I will stop the spirit for seven days for funerals. You don’t have to keep it for three years. The day changes and the moon changes. The important things of the country and the family should be the most important thing. Behind me, the burial ceremonies, etc., should be thrifty and don’t disturb the people.”

The emperor said intermittently, and the others cried and listened. After the emperor finished talking about the political arrangements, he looked at his wife and children.

The emperor’s eyes slowly swept away from everyone. Except for Li Shan, who died of illness, the other children surrounded him. Li Chaoge came with Gu Mingke. The emperor felt very moved, and Shen Shen said: “The harem must not be without an owner. I give Liu the granddaughter of the penal department and the daughter of Liu Yanjing, the provincial governor of Shanzhou, as the prince princess, and the prince will be married after he is filial. I am about to go to serve the emperor under Jiuquan. Guangning doesn’t have to stay at the Daomen anymore. After I die, Guangning will return to the vulgar, and look for a wishful man.”

Li Huai and Li Changle responded with tears. After the emperor had confessed the two men, he looked at Li Chaoge.

Li Chaoge bowed his head slightly, showing a gesture of listening to training. The emperor seemed to sigh with emotion and said: “I always worry that Chang Le is being bullied. The prince will not be able to make progress, but I am only worried that you are too hard. What are you doing are very good, no matter whether you are a woman or a minister, there is nothing you can do. Accusation. I am very pleased to have a daughter like you, but you are always alone. I am not afraid that you are absurd and enjoyable, but I am afraid that there will be no one by your side. Fortunately, you are married. In the future, your husband and wife should work together. , Live and die together, no matter what you encounter, you must face it together.”

Li Chaoge didn’t expect the emperor to say these things to her, and his eyes suddenly moistened. Gu Mingke sighed lightly in his heart, and raised his hand to respond: “The minister obeys his orders, and he will live up to the entrustment of the saint.”

The arrangements for the important affairs of the country and the family are finished, and the arrangements for the children are finished, and only the wife is left. The Queen of Heaven is a very special existence to him. She has been with him for twenty years. She is a beloved wife, a relative, a companion, and a political enemy. As far as tomorrow and the moon, close relatives and husbands and wives, he knows her ambitions and also understands her shortcomings. Now at the end of his life, the emperor still paves the way for the queen of heaven: “After the prince succeeded to the throne, the military? Is there any major event? The one who decides will take the day and go.”

When Tianhou heard this, the kerchief in her hand became loose and tight. She was undoubtedly very relieved, but when she saw the dying husband in front of her, she felt sad again: “Sage.”

Although the emperor’s words were weak, they were clearly organized and his thoughts were quick. The political wisdom of an emperor could still be seen. But now facing the queen, the emperor has faded from his emperor status, like an ordinary couple, and said to the queen: “I’ll leave first, and then I will leave you alone. Take good care of the children, the prince is immature in dealing with things, you are too much. ?Teach him something.”

The queen held back tears and nodded silently.

“After I die, the kings will each seal one hundred households, and the princess will add fifty households. Both the domestic and foreign civil and martial arts ranks above nine grades are advanced to the first level. Exempt from school service.”

The emperor’s voice became weaker and quieter, and the hall was silent for a long time. The queen tentatively called: “Your Majesty, Your Majesty?”

The emperor leaned on the pillow, placed his hand gently on the side of the bed, and no longer reacted.

Suddenly crying sounded inside and outside the Daye Hall. The waiter hurried to the steps and sang to the long jade steps: “Sage Bintian is here.”

At this moment, the East? Fish white, a round of rising sun leaps to the horizon, and casts the first ray of sunshine on July 21 of the 24th year of Yonghui toward the world.

Emperor Li Ze died.

·

Daxing emperor Bintian, the whole country? The same mourning.

After daybreak, the towns opened, and the queen arranged her appearance, and called the courtiers into the palace to discuss the name and posthumous title of the emperor of Dahang. The ministers heard about the wind yesterday, but there was a curfew at night, and everyone couldn’t go out. They planned to visit the palace today, but they didn’t expect that the emperor would die just after “overnight”.

Each of the ministers? I have read the edict of the Daxing Emperor, and they have no objections, and follow Li Ze’s arrangement before his death. The edict of Li Ze can still be seen in the emperor’s heart. He didn’t trust Li Huai. He was afraid that Li Huai would be constrained by his courtiers, so he left his last words to let the queen check the important affairs of the country. But? Conversely, Li Ze also restricted the Queen of Heaven at the same time. “The military state takes the Queen of a major event at the same time.” That would deprive the Queen of her usual ruling power.

In Li Ze’s mind, he trusted the queen, but he also thought that the throne belonged to his son. He has never doubted that the queen will have two hearts.

Someone suggested: “The emperor Daxing has an order to let the prince succeed in front of the throne. The emperor’s order cannot be violated. According to the opinion of the minister, the prince should also take over the government.”

The Queen’s eyes moved? He moved, and said: “The prince and the Emperor Daxing are very close to each other. First, the Emperor Bintian, the prince is sorrowful. For the time being, I am afraid that he will be powerless. During the period of filial piety, let the prince be at ease and keep his filial piety. Don’t touch the government. So as not to divide his thoughts of giving the first emperor Shouling.”

No one dared to object when Tianhou said this. How dare Li Huai say no? When he thinks that there are only 27 days anyway, it will not delay what? He nodded and said: “What the Queen Mother said?

Li Ze died, Li Huai succeeded, and the queen’s seniority was also upgraded to the queen mother. Li Huai could not ask about foreign affairs for twenty-seven days, and cherish the memory of his father, but the vast land of Tang Dynasty could not guarantee that no major incidents would happen within twenty-seven days. During this period of time, government affairs must be represented by people. Everyone looked at them and petitioned: “Yi Xian, the emperor’s will, if there are any undecided military affairs, they will all go to the Queen of Heaven. The prince can’t take care of it during the period of filial piety. Government, I implore the Queen Mother to come forward and take charge of government affairs on behalf of the prince.”

Tin Hau roughly pushed and took it. The funerals of the emperors are all fixed, but they can be arranged. The national funeral ceremonies were released one after another, and the bustling and prosperous Dongdu also fell silent.

In the twenty-seven days since the death of the Emperor Daxing, Zhuban cannot be used in the courts, and all the pens are replaced with blue pens, and the seals of the bureaus have to be replaced with blue. Nationwide? Daixiao March, civil and military officials and civilians are not allowed to banquets and entertainment within 100 days, Gyeonggi is forbidden to marry and marry within a month. The national temples ring the bell 30,000 times to pray for the Emperor Daxing.

The princess Shengyuan’s mansion is also everywhere. Li Chaoge got married yesterday, and the house was decorated with lights and festivities. In the blink of an eye, the happy event turned into a fuss. The palace people were busy changing things that were forbidden, and Li Chaoge also changed into filial attire.

The emperor can use the sun to lead the moon and keep filial piety for twenty-seven days, but ordinary princesses like Li Chaoge do not have such privileges. She wants to be strong, solid, and filial for twenty-seven months, during which banquets and entertainment are forbidden. However, Li Chaoge didn’t attend the banquet originally. These constraints are useless to her. The one who is really related to her is Ding You.

According to ancient rituals, after the death of their parents, the filial son should move to the grave of his parents, form a hut, be a vegetarian, weep, and thank his parents for their kindness every day until the three-year period expires. Now, keeping filial piety does not need to do this step, but those who are officials still have to resign at home, do not drink, do not enjoy themselves or think about adultery, and are pure and widowed to complete the three-year period of filial piety.

For the resignation, Wei Shi? hit Li Chaoge seven inches. Li Chaoge spent a few days in the palace, and finally waited for his destiny in the palace.

During the month of keeping filial piety, Emperor Li Huai missed the first emperor, and there was no psychological policy. After Tian Hou took office, the first thing was to regain Li Chaoge’s love. To lose love is to take away the love of filial piety from the family.

After that, Tian Hou also mobilized his confidant to serve as the governor of Bingzhou, Yizhou, Jingzhou, and Yangzhou, promoted the governors of the three books, and moved a home to the Zhengshitang by the way.

The changes in these personnel were slight, but Li Chaoge knew that this was the Queen of Heaven preparing for her ascension to the throne.

Recovering Li Chaoge, and at the same time, handing over the guarding rights of the palace gate and the city gate to her, that is, completely holding Luoyang in his palm. What about the Queen of Heaven? How can people who are suspicious of their lives give their doors to others. Tian Hou also moved the power of war to Li Chaoge in the name of Chu Yao. If it is needed one day later, this is the most powerful guarantee of force for the Tian Hou.

Mobilizing his confidant as the local governor is to control outside Luoyang. Bingzhou, Yizhou, Jingzhou, and Yangzhou are the four major military and economic locations respectively. Holding these four places in the palm of your hand, no matter where in the northeast, southeast, northwest of Datang, there is disturbance, the queen can respond quickly. And adjusting the manpower of the sect, middle school, and Shangshu is to eliminate dissidents in a small amount, and hold the slaughter as much as possible in their own hands.

As for the final move to the Zhengshitang, it is the unique political skills of the Queen of Heaven. The Zhengshitang is the place where the prime ministers can discuss matters. They can discuss the state and housekeeping orders and even reject the emperor’s edict. Tian Hou disliked Zhengshitang’s hands and feet, but she didn’t say clearly, but moved the Zhengshitang away.

Zhengshitang was far away from the center, and the news was inconvenient, so naturally there was no way to restrict the power of the queen.

Li Huai stayed in the palace this month and devoted himself to Li Ze’s filial piety. How did he know that so much had happened outside? An accident. After the twenty-seven days passed, Li Huai was officially registered and became the new emperor, and Li Chaoge’s title also became the eldest princess of Shengyuanzhen.

The new emperor ascended the throne, enlisted as a queen, and began to take over the emperor’s power. Li Chaoge wore a plain suit and returned to the Town Demon Division to handle the case. Bai Qianhe and others returned from Fenzhou and brought back many documents and materials. Li Chaoge didn’t participate in the final finishing work, and he was particularly concerned when the conclusion was finalized.

Bai Qianhe said: “Commander, all the files are here. Before we go, we will arrange manual inspection in Fenzhou according to the commander’s instructions. Once we find lifelessness, we will report it to the court immediately.”

Li Chaoge nodded and asked: “Where is the altar in the mountain?”

“Our people have been staring for three or four months, and no one comes and goes these days.”

Li Chaoge feels a little regretful, is there no one approaching? It seems that the other party? Either there are other secret paths, or they are already on guard.

Li Chaoge knew that he couldn’t do his work in a single battle, so he didn’t get discouraged, and said, “Let them keep staring, and don’t relax.”

“The commander can rest assured that the guards are changing day and night outside the cave, so that even a fly can’t get in?”

Li Chaoge and Bai Qianhe talked about other things. At the end, the business is almost the same. Bai Qianhe said gossiping locally: “Commander, now the queen mother is abdicated, the saint is married, and there are many new people in Dongdu. These are these. The carriages and horses in front of the Empress’s mother’s house are almost blocking the road, and there are congratulations to the saint’s newly-married man. Should the commander go? Talk to the new sister-in-law?”

Before Li Ze died, he appointed Li Huai as a princess, and left a will, so that Li Huai would immediately ascend to the throne after his filial piety was over. The emperor’s wedding was very troublesome, and only one month was too late to prepare, but the first emperor’s death was like this, no matter it was impossible, they had to complete it.

Li Huai hurriedly married Liu’s family. At the same time, he chose a woman from the minister’s house and set up two concubines and four concubines.

The fourth concubine and nine concubines were half full in a blink of an eye, and you can see that Li Huai came here to become the emperor sincerely.

“What’s there to say?” Li Chaoge’s tone didn’t mean it. After Li Huai’s filial piety expired, the queen returned to Li Huai. The Queen has been in charge of the government for nearly ten years, and the palace has made many enemies inside and outside the palace? Now the new emperor is enthroned and a new queen concubine is enrolled, and the palace has completely changed blood. Many people became restless and felt that once the emperor and the courtiers belonged to the queen of heaven, the era has passed.

All those who hold this kind of thinking, Li Chaoge wishes them a good journey under Jiuquan.

Bai Qianhe raised his eyebrows quietly. During this time, he was surrounded by people who were arrogant, and even the town demon division was also affected. After all, everyone knows that Li Chaoge belongs to the Queen of Heaven. The person who used to be the master is the first emperor, the first emperor is willing to spoil his daughter and let Li Chaoge mess around, but now the person in the throne has been replaced by Li Huai. As the younger brother, Li Huai is willing to indulge Li Chaoge’s arrogant sister Woolen cloth?

I’m afraid it is? Individuals have to put a question mark. It’s not a secret that Li Huai and Princess Guangning are close to each other. There are more new mistresses in the palace now, and the heaven of the palace might change.

Moreover, there is a small change. The former Zuo Supplement Pei Ji’an, in the early period of time, invested in Zhao Wang’s hidden residence, and now with Zhao Wangfei Huang Tengda, the official worship of Zhongshusheren, once again became the former celebrity of the saint.

Zhong Lang couldn’t help but envy Pei Ji’an with good fortune and good luck. Although his marriage contract with Princess Guangning is not counted, Pei Ji’an has a superior family background, good looks, and a good future. What do you want? What kind of wife?

Now Pei Ji’an is a big red man in the imperial city, and I don’t know how many people cheat him every day. Bai Qianhe is a little bit more? Knowing something, Li Chaoge and Pei Jiada Langjun seem to have no intersection, but with Bai Qianhe’s eyesight, it is not difficult to see that Pei Ji’an still has some interest in Li Chaoge. Nowadays, the old man is flying yellow, Bai Qianhe especially wants to know what Li Chaoge thinks. It’s a pity that Li Chaoge is very cold and can’t see anything at all? What a good show. Bai Qianhe feels a little regretful. He can’t control his own mouth at the moment. He beeps, “Recently, Pei She is very hot. The princess’s cousin and Pei She are cousins. The princess does not intend to let the cousin go? and Pei She. People walk around? Walk around?”

Li Chaoge pointed to the next door blankly and said, “The horse is not far away. You are so curious, why don’t you go? Talk to him in person?”

Bai Qianhe suddenly? Withered, how could he have the courage. There was a knock on the door outside, Li Chaoge and Bai Qianhe turned their heads, Mo Linlang pushed the door into the hall, and was stunned when he saw someone inside.

Mo Linlang hurriedly said: “Sorry, I didn’t know Brother Bai was inside. I’m going out now?”

“No need.” Li Chaoge waved his hand and glared at Bai Qianhe disgustedly.

Bai Qianhe came out from the main hall heartbroken, flicking his arm, very contrived. Ma Linlang watched Bai Qianhe go out, and asked in doubt? “Commander, did I really not interrupt you? If Brother Bai is in a hurry, I can wait for a while?”

“It’s okay, what can he do? What an urgent matter.” Li Chaoge sneered and asked?, “What do you have? What’s the matter?”

Ma Linlang got up and said: “Commander, the emperor Kui that you asked me to check some time ago, I found it.”

The author has something to say: If there are undecided military affairs, they will also take the queen to stop. ——Li Zhi’s “Legacy”
