Chapter 1475 Emperor Chongping: Deciding the name of the temple during his lifetime, I’m afraid he will be
Chapter 1474 Emperor Chongping: If you decide on a temple name during your lifetime, you will be ridiculed by the world...
Hanyuan Hall, inner study room
In order to prevent any accidents in the inheritance of the throne, Emperor Chongping decided to stay in the inner study during the last days of his life.
At this moment, Emperor Chongping was lying quietly on a soft couch in the study room. On his thin, dark face, the sides of his cheeks were sunken, and his whole body seemed to be enveloped by an aura of decline and malaise.
This emperor is now gradually reaching the end of his life.
Emperor Chongping suddenly asked: "Dai Quan, have the guards in the palace been changed?"
Dai Quan stood with his hands down and said, "Your Majesty, I have already changed them."
"Has the Queen Mother sent someone to inform you?" Emperor Chongping asked again in a hoarse and weak voice.
"Your Majesty, I have already informed the Queen Mother, but the meeting has not come yet," Dai Quan said.
At this moment, a young eunuch with a white face and a beardless face walked quickly into the hall and announced: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has arrived."
After a while, I saw several eunuchs and nuns surrounding a white-haired old woman, the most powerful noblewoman in the Han Empire, entering the palace.
At this moment, traces of sadness seemed to appear on that white, kind face.
"Your Majesty." Empress Dowager Feng stepped into the square Nuan Pavilion, looked at Emperor Chongping with concern and kind eyes, and said softly.
While he was talking, he came close enough to hold Emperor Chongping's bare hand, which was as thin as a dry branch, and said, "Your Majesty, what's going on now?"
His heart couldn't help but be startled, and he was clearly shocked by Emperor Chongping's cold hands.
As the saying goes, people are dying and their bodies are getting colder.
Emperor Chongping was really exhausted and his life was not long.
Emperor Chongping sighed softly, with a hint of weakness in his voice, and said warmly: "Mother, I'm afraid your time is numbered."
Empress Dowager Feng's nose felt sour for a moment. On her fair and old face, old tears could be seen streaming down her cheeks. She said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, why do you say this?"
For an old woman, she has just experienced the pain of losing her husband, and now she has to experience the pain of losing her son again. You can imagine the pain in her heart.
Emperor Chongping's face softened slightly, and his voice was slightly choked, and he said: "Mother, there is no need to feel sad. My son and I have no regrets in being born into the society of the country. The only thing I can't bear to do is Zitong and you."
Queen Mother Feng was startled and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, why are you talking about this?"
Emperor Chongping continued: "My son decided to appoint the King of Chu as his heir, shouldering the legacy laid by his ancestors, and also asked his mother to take care of the harem."
After hearing this, Empress Dowager Feng's eyes were filled with worry, and she said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, if you don't establish a heir apparent by establishing a direct heir, isn't it a recipe for disaster?"
"Although the King of Wei is virtuous, he has no children. Although the King of Liang is the son of Zitong, he has a surly temperament and is narrow-minded. Although the eighth prince is extremely intelligent, he is still in his early years, and Luo'er is still in his infancy. Chu
Although the king has a mean and jealous temperament, he has the heart of an emperor and can protect our country of Han Dynasty for thousands of years." Emperor Chongping said.
Empress Dowager Feng frowned and said disapprovingly, "I don't think the King of Chu is gentle and courteous. Can he be the king of the prosperous age? I still have to choose a magnanimous and magnanimous saint."
The Empress Dowager Feng has also lived in the palace for a long time, and her political wisdom is not low.
When Emperor Chongping heard this, he smiled bitterly and said: "Like my father, he was lenient to his subordinates, and corrupt officials filled the top and bottom. Even if Longzhi revives again, it will only flourish and then decline."
Queen Mother Feng: "..."
She, the prince, understands everything, so she is so worried and ill.
In fact, if Yongzheng established the crown prince in parallel time and space, then Emperor Chongping's crown prince was exactly Yongzheng's correction of the choice of Hongli.
Emperor Chongping said: "Mother, now that I have appointed the King of Chu instead of the King of Wei, Zitong and the Song family will definitely not be able to tolerate it. The palace also hopes that my mother will be in charge to determine the overall situation."
Empress Dowager Feng said "Yes", calmed down and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, just leave everything in the palace to your mother."
In fact, Empress Dowager Feng didn't really like Empress Song as her daughter-in-law, but thinking of Emperor Chongping, she still gave her a bit of a thumbs-down.
Emperor Chongping's hoarse voice was full of sadness and desolation as he said: "I am worthy of the great Han Dynasty, worthy of my ancestors, and worthy of the thousands of people."
While speaking, the middle-aged emperor coughed violently again. Dai Quan, who was waiting for him beside the beam, quickly approached, took the veil, handed it over, and said with concern: "Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty." Empress Dowager Feng took the handkerchief, came closer, wiped the corners of Emperor Chongping's mouth, wiped away the blood, and said: "Your Majesty, your whole life, you have really worried about the world."
Emperor Chongping coughed slightly, sighed and said, "I don't know how future generations will evaluate me."
Compared with the life of Emperor Longzhi, the life of Emperor Chongping can be said to be a life of sleeping late at night, sleeping hard at night, and working hard to govern.
Of course, the late Emperor Longzhi also received the temple title of Gaozong.
Among the emperors of the Chen and Han dynasties, Emperor Taizu Gao, Emperor Taizong Wen, and Emperor Gaozongkang were also Emperor Longzhi.
Because of Zhao Jiu, Emperor Gaozong often expressed praise and criticism, and the posthumous title of Kang encompassed the life of Emperor Longzhi.
Being happy and caring for the people is called health. Of course, there is also happiness and neglect of government, which is called health.
Empress Dowager Feng said with relief: "These are the opinions of my ministers, and the emperor is the king of Zhongxing. He works conscientiously and builds on the past. A hundred years later, he deserves a good posthumous title."
Emperor Chongping coughed for a while, put down his handkerchief, and said, "Queen Mother, those civil servants are probably going to give me the title of Shizong."
Sejong once said that it was a shift in the imperial line, but it was probably some kind of coincidence.
Sometimes, when the emperor's achievements are not outstanding and his virtues are not good enough, it is even more ironic to use a beautiful posthumous title. This is also the reason why the successor emperors often continue to glorify their ancestors and the yin and yang of the civil service group.
Since the Tang and Song Dynasties, posthumous titles have become longer and longer, and they are all beautiful. Civil servants can only express their evaluation of the monarch in temple titles.
Empress Dowager Feng thought for a while and said: "When the emperor was in power, he initiated new policies and regained Liaodong. The ancestors had merit and the clan was virtuous. From the perspective of the mother and queen, the emperor will be the martyr ancestor in the future."
Emperor Chongping gave a bitter smile and said: "A great ancestor? It's like Emperor Ming of Cao Wei. He decided on the name of the temple during his lifetime, fearing that he would be ridiculed by the world."
Emperor Wei Ming, Cao Rui, gave himself the temple name of Liezu during his lifetime, and gave it to Cao Cao and Cao Pi. He directly abolished the system of temple names, and from then on emperors all had temple names.
Empress Dowager Feng sighed and said in a clear voice: "Your Majesty, your merits and demerits will all be judged by future generations, so why do you care about this?"
Emperor Chongping was silent for a moment.
Empress Dowager Feng showed some pity in her eyes and said softly: "Your Majesty, you'd better take good care of yourself. Your Majesty has his own destiny, so there should be nothing serious."
The mother and son talked for a while, and the sky suddenly turned towards evening. Empress Dowager Feng left the study room in Hanyuan Hall without lingering.

Funing Palace
After lunch, Jia Heng and Princess Xianning sat together. The young couple held hands and talked about homely matters.
Princess Xianning was leaning her head against Jia Heng's arms. Her straight and straight nose was slightly shrugged. Under her eyebrows trimmed with willow leaves, her beautiful eyes were sparkling and she said angrily: "Sir, what are you doing?" Where did he come from? Why does he smell like rouge and gouache?"
I don’t know who I’m having a good time with.
At this moment, Jia Heng took Princess Xianning's delicate hand and said helplessly: "When I went out in the morning, your sister Xiaoxiao insisted on pestering me."
Well, at this time I can only use Xiaoxiao as a shield.
Although Xiaoxiao is no longer watching the wind, Xiaoxiao's figure is everywhere, everywhere.
Under Princess Xianning's beautiful eyebrows, suspicion surged in her eyes, and she secretly thought, is it really Sister Xiaoxiao? Sister Xiaoxiao has never used this kind of spice.
Jia Heng gently held Princess Xianning's slender hand, turned her eyes, looked at the bright and plump face, and said softly: "Xianning, there has been some unrest in the palace recently. You are in Funing Palace, so don't act carelessly. Move around.”
Princess Xianning nodded. Immediately, she was startled and asked, "Sir, what's wrong?"
Jia Heng gently caressed the beauty's bulging belly, looked a little far away, and said: "You will know in the past two days, the Holy Emperor has reactivated the Zhen family, and the position of the East Palace has gradually been settled."
When Princess Xianning heard this, the expression on her fragrant and jade-skinned face suddenly changed, and she said with worry in her tone: "What should I do about Brother Wei Wang...?"
Jia Heng said: "The King of Wei has no children, so the Holy One has no choice but to do it."
Under Princess Xianning's slender willow-leaf eyebrows, there was a look of worry in her clear and slightly beautiful eyes, and she asked with concern: "What should I do over there, the Queen Mother?"
She gave birth to three children, but none of them succeeded to the throne. How should I put this? I'm afraid the mother was already very sad.
Jia Heng said: "The holy will is like this, so I have no choice but to accept it."
Tian Niu'er's initial proposal to support the King of Wei was actually somewhat feasible, but he might have to bear the infamy.
Because he was a minister of Tuogu, but he did not obey the emperor's will. In this era of loyalty and sincerity, he will be reviled.
Princess Xianning's beautiful eyes were as bright as water, and she said softly: "Mr."
Jia Heng gently stroked the beauty's shoulder and said with relief: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
Then, he stared at Song Yan and Li Chanyue, who were not far away and looked at each other.
"Chanyue, Yan'er, let's return to the eldest princess's mansion in Jinyang later." Jia Heng looked at Song Yan with condensed eyes under his sharp eyebrows, and said warmly.
Since coming back, I haven't been very affectionate with Song Yan and Li Chanyue.
Not only Song Yan and Chan Yue, but also Ping'er and Yuanyang were missed.
Gu Ruoqing has also been missing for a while, but I don't know where she is now.
Song Yan's voice was a little charming, and she said: "Brother Heng, after we get married, I haven't returned home yet."
Brother Heng had promised her back then, and it was time to honor it.
Jia Heng smiled and said: "Sister Yan'er said that we should go there the day after tomorrow."
Princess Xianning said softly: "Sir, you are leaving."
Jia Heng stared at Princess Xianning and whispered: "It's getting late, I'll go back first, and I'll come back to you when I get back."
Princess Xianning nodded slightly, and immediately, she didn't say much else, but a thick layer of haze gradually formed on her heart.
Why is my father so cruel?
How could the queen mother bear it?
It can be said that the two sisters of the Song family entered the palace to give birth to children for the emperor, but in the end, none of them got the position in the East Palace.
I have to say, this is an unspeakable sadness.
…
…
Jia Heng did not spend much time in Funing Palace, but took a carriage with Li Chanyue and Song Yan to the Jinyang Princess's Mansion.
At this moment, on top of the carriage with curtains all around——
Li Chanyue nestled her beautiful green-haired head in Jia Heng's arms. There was peace and warmth on her face, and she said softly: "Mr. Jia, is something big going to happen in Beijing?"
Although Li Chanyue has a more innocent and cute temperament, she is not stupid. On the contrary, she has a keen sense of perception. This is already clear from the discussion between Jia Heng and Princess Xianning just now.
Jia Heng reached out and gently touched Li Chanyue's shoulder and said, "Chanyue, I can handle these, it'll be okay."
As he spoke, he reached into the warm and soft clothes and wandered back and forth in the fragrant and soft scent of powder.
Chan Yue has become quite old in recent years.
Li Chanyue's fair and gleaming jade face showed a slight blush. She snorted and said, "Mr. Xiao Jia, let's go home and make trouble again."
Under Song Yan's beautiful willow eyebrows, her bright eyes were as bright as water, and her face as white as snow was blushing like clouds. She said, "Brother Heng, when will we return to the Song family?"
Jia Heng said: "Just these two days. Tomorrow, I have to go to Zhen's house first."
Yan'er also knew how to compete with him for favor.
Song Yan responded softly and rested her head on Jia Heng's other shoulder.
A horse-drawn carriage with an upright carriage rumbled along without stopping, passing through the snow-covered, spacious and elegant bluestone streets, heading towards the Jinyang Princess's Mansion.
At this moment, Jinyang Princess Mansion——
The eldest princess of Jinyang is currently teaching her son Jia Jie how to read, and the book in her hand is a copy of "The Thousand-Character Classic".
"The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, and the universe is primitive." Princess Jinyang pointed to the words on it and said softly.
Jia Jie Nuo said: "The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, and the universe is primitive."
After this graceful beauty gave birth to a child, her face became plumper and fairer, her skin was white and rosy, and the scent of powder and makeup silently spread out, adding a little more grace and beauty.
"Your Highness, Prince Wei is here." At this moment, Lianxue, dressed in a plain dress with wide sleeves, entered the hall with graceful steps, and said softly to Princess Jinyang.
The eldest princess of Jinyang put down her son, with a bright smile on her pink and beautiful face, and said softly: "Jie'er, your father is back."
While he was talking, he saw a young man wearing a black and red embroidered python suit walking quickly. He had a resolute face and bright eyes. Not far behind him were Li Chanyue and Song Yan.
"Jinyang." Jia Heng stepped forward quickly. Under his sword-shaped brows, his eyes were like the warmth of Chu Yang. He looked at the beauty and said, "Let me come over to see you and the child."
Princess Cuiyu of Jinyang raised her beautiful eyebrows, her beautiful eyes were as bright as water, and she said softly: "Ziyu, are you back from the palace?"
Jia Heng's eyes paused slightly under his sharp eyebrows, and he said: "I don't have anything else to do. I just went to see the saint."
Under the slender eyebrows of Liu Ye, the eldest princess of Jinyang, her eyes flashed brightly. Seeing that there seemed to be some strange color on the young man's resolute face, she said softly: "What's wrong?"
Jia Heng said: "The Holy Emperor has decided to activate the Zhen family. Both Zhen Yingjia and Zhen Shao will be transferred to the capital to serve as the wings of the King of Chu."
Princess Jinyang's graceful and gorgeous face seemed to be filled with surprise, and she said: "This... the emperor wants to establish the king of Chu?"
Under Jia Heng's sword-browed eyebrows, his eyes were uncertain, and he said softly: "About that, the King of Wei has no sons, and all his sons are still young, so the King of Chu is the most suitable."
The eldest princess of Jinyang frowned, her beautiful eyes were as bright as water, and she said softly: "How is King Chu suitable for you?"
The King of Chu had cast a coveted eye on her at first, and he seemed to have evil intentions.
Jia Heng gently held the beauty's slender catkin and said warmly: "Tomorrow, Lan'er, Xi'er, I, and I will go to Zhen Qing's place."
Jia Heng didn't know that Zhen Qing had already planned to bring her children to Zhen Qing's house to sit down and talk with Jia Heng.
Princess Jinyang said softly: "That's fine."
As she said that, the beauty frowned and asked in an incomprehensible tone, "What do you smell like? You smell like a coquettish fox. Don't ruin my family's integrity."
Jia Heng: "..."
What kind of coquettish fox? This is the scent of the mother of a country’s charming flesh. What kind of coquettish fox smell can it be?
Jia Heng nodded and said warmly: "Then you talk to Jie'er, and I'll go down to take a shower and change clothes."
"Let's have dinner together later." The eldest princess of Jinyang said softly, with her beautiful eyes shining brightly under her beautiful eyebrows.
Jia Heng looked at Li Chanyue and Song Yan, who were holding their cheeks and staring blankly at the moment, and said: "Yan'er, Chanyue, come with me."
Li Chanyue's clear and bright jade cheeks were as red as a blush, and she responded softly.
Then, she and Song Yan went to wait for Jia Heng to bathe and change clothes.
At this moment, Lianxue walked up to Princess Jinyang and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness."
"It's really raining." Princess Jinyang gently pinched her son's cheek, causing Jia Jie to hum.
Every time he was seized, it was a bloody storm for the court.
On the other side, Jia Heng stepped into the side room and said softly to Li Chanyue and Song Yan behind him: "Chanyue, Yan'er, help me change my clothes."
Li Chanyue said "hmm", walked closer, and stretched out her hand to help Jia Heng take off his clothes.
At this moment, in the bathtub, the steam is rising, and in the hot water, you can see pieces of flower petals and various spices mixed together, and the aroma is dense and refreshing.
While Jia Heng was talking, he stepped on a three-section bamboo couch and entered the wooden bathtub.
"Mr. Xiao Jia, why are there rouge marks on your neck?" Li Chanyue raised her eyes and saw the boy in the python suit.
Jia Heng looked a little unnatural and said casually: "It was your sister Xiaoxiao who left it up there accidentally. She can be quite mischievous sometimes."
At this moment, Song Yan walked closer. With a pair of soft and white hands, she helped Jia Heng remove his clothes and said, "Why is there a blood mark on Brother Heng's back?"
Jia Heng looked strange for a moment and said softly: "You sister Xiaoxiao must have caught her. She is getting more and more mischievous."
Tian Niu'er was so crazy that she almost scratched his back.
Li Chanyue was helping Jia Heng put away her clothes. At this moment, she gradually turned her warm eyes and looked at the blood marks on Jia Heng's back with distress, and said: "Mr. Jia, why is Sister Xiaoxiao like this?
They caught everyone.”
Jia Heng pinched Li Chanyue's pink and smooth face and said with a smile: "When you see her next time, tell me something about her. She is really too wild."
Li Chanyue said "hmm".
Jia Heng gently took Li Chanyue's delicate hand and said softly: "Okay, let's get in the tub and take a bath."
Under the service of Li Chanyue and Song Yan, Jia Heng finished bathing and put on a brand new green shirt. He stared at Song Yan and said softly: "Yan'er, have you missed me?"
At this moment, Song Yan met the eyes of the boy in python suit, and a blush appeared on her pink face, and said: "Brother Heng."
"Brother Heng, uh~~" the girl whispered, but she saw the boy in python suit approaching, and suddenly put his arms around her shoulders. The hot, annihilating breath was like a torrent of rivers, suddenly covering her body.
On the slight cherry lips.
Song Yanfang's heart trembled, and she snorted under her nose. On her face, which was as white as jade and had fragrant skin, two rose-red flowers gradually appeared, bright and moving.
Li Chanyue stood aside, looking at the two of them with a face as clear as snow and a red face. Under the beautiful willow eyebrows, there seemed to be a glimmer of light shining in her eyes that contained stars and moons.
Mr. Xiao Jia doesn't care about her anymore, right?
