Chapter 1544 Jia Heng: It won’t be in front of King Chu’s coffin
Chapter 1543 Jia Heng: It won’t be in front of King Chu’s coffin...
Daming Palace, Hanyuan Palace
Under the vermilion-colored palace with cornices and hooked corners, teams of tall palace guards in brocade robes stood under the eaves, with an embroidered spring knife slung around their waists, with solemn expressions on their faces.
The atmosphere in the hall was quiet, you could hear a needle drop, and you seemed to be shocked by Jia Heng's scolding words at this moment.
Jia Heng's face was as dark as water, his cold eyes wandered around, and he said in a deep voice: "Everyone has doubts about Jia since he was a commoner. It continues to this day, and the voices of criticism are still heard. However, Jia is brave and loyal.
Sun and moon, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty asked themselves, how could Jia have done anything wrong in the country?"
It can be said that the criticism of him from outside has never stopped. Even today, when he is named King of Wei, the people in the government and the public are shouting about beating him and killing him, hoping to get rid of him quickly.
It is worth mentioning that King Wei was just a minor vassal, and the titles of Jin, Liang, Yan, etc. were not for people with different surnames.
At this moment, among the civil and military ministers in the palace, some were younger and thin-skinned, with a look of guilt on their faces.
However, most of the civil and military officials present had expressionless faces and sneered in their hearts.
You have been loyal and loyal in the past, but who knows if you will betray me in the future?
Jia Heng said: "You have read the books of sages and sages, but you only rely on conjecture to make such heart-wrenching remarks. How despicable are you to verbally criticize and criticize this king?"
Not all civil servants obey the orders of the cabinet. These imperial censors will even impeach the cabinet ministers. Therefore, today's incident is not because Li Zan, Gao Zhongping and the cabinet ministers did not do a good job on the sidelines.
In fact, it is a blessing that no one died in the hall today.
Of course, it is also related to the fact that Jia Heng is only a prince of Jinjue, but does not have the title of Jiuxi.
At this moment, Xu Lu, the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, stood among the civil servants. He looked coldly at the young man in the python suit and observed secretly.
After Emperor Chongping's reign, the Chief Consul of the Metropolitan Procuratorate fell ill for a while. Finally, in the past few months, his body recovered some strength. He did not want to encounter the assassination of the new emperor again. The political situation of Chen and Han was turbulent, and the country was in turmoil.
At that time, among the cabinet ministers and ministers, Lu Jiang's face was as cold as iron, and he looked at the young man in the python suit with a gloomy look.
The late emperor had just passed away, and this man reprimanded the ministers in the main hall. He was arrogant and domineering, and he had already appeared to be a rebellious minister and a traitor!
It's a shame that the cabinet keeps giving in to it.
At this moment, Gao Zhongping also looked at the young man in python suit, with a resolute face and a dark look in his eyes.
I was also worried for no reason.
The title of prince should not be awarded lightly. Now that they have started this, where will they go in the future? Will they become sinners of the Han from now on?
At this time, Zhen Qing, who was sitting on the golden armchair, looked at the young man in python suit with high spirits and angrily scolding the ministers, and she was a little crazy for a moment.
After finishing his scolding, Jia Heng bowed to Zhen Qing behind the curtain and whispered: "Empress, I think we should choose an auspicious day so that Emperor Xianzong can be buried first."
Zhen Qing was silent for a while, then slightly opened her pink lips and asked, "What does the cabinet think?"
At this time, Li Zan, the chief assistant of the cabinet, came out of the courtroom with a solemn look on his face. He cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I think that the day after tomorrow will be a good time to send Emperor Xianzong to his mausoleum."
Zhen Qing nodded slightly, her beautiful crystal eyes condensed, and said: "Emperor Xianzong has been in mourning for a long time, and it is time for him to be laid to rest."
The coffins of the father and son sitting in the palace are indeed a bit outrageous. In the eyes of outsiders, they all seem to be a sign of national subjugation.
This happened in the Ming Dynasty in parallel time and space, but in this world, the Ming Dynasty lost its state since the Jiajing Dynasty, and there is still not much precedent.
Seeing that the atmosphere among the ministers in the palace gradually became quieter, Zhen Qing's delicate jade face was as cold as frost, her pink lips slightly parted, and she said quietly: "Come here, please read out the edict."
Then, after a while, the first edict of the new emperor was read out again. It was still drafted by the cabinet and announced to the world. It was mainly the imperial edict of the young emperor's ascension to the throne, indicating that he had ascended the throne to carry out his duties, and the edict was announced to the world so that Chinese and foreign subjects would know it.
"The emperor is destined to be carried by heaven, and the edict says: The late emperor passed away and returned to the Five Elements. I inherit the order of the emperor and heaven, and the emperor Hongxiu. In accordance with the order of the emperor Daxing, I enter the ancestral hall according to the ethical order..." Internal Prison
He chanted loudly, with a somewhat tragic tone in his voice.
Then he was proclaimed emperor and changed to Yuan Dynasty. His mother, Zhen, was given the title of Empress Dowager, while Empress Dowager Feng was her great-grandmother, Empress Dowager.
The era name is designated as Qiande. From next year onwards, the Han Dynasty will be the first year of Qiande. However, in the 19th year of Chongping, the first year of Jianxing, and the first year of Qiande, three era names were changed in just two years, which shows that the Han Dynasty was the first year of Qiande.
The political situation is turbulent and has twists and turns.
As for the Empress of the Song Dynasty, because she united with the Wei and Liang vassals to conspire against her, although she was not stripped of her title, she was not given the title of Grand Empress Dowager again. She seemed to have been omitted.
In other words, to the civil and military ministers of Chen and Han, the Queen of Song was a rather embarrassing figure.
After the edict was read out by the eunuch, Zhen Qing, under her slender and blue-green eyebrows, had a pair of clear and narrow phoenix eyes with a hint of coquettishness, and said in a clear voice: "King Wei, Mr. Li Ge, Emperor Guangzong's
The construction of the mausoleum should be stepped up to prevent the spirit from being suspended for too long and affecting the integrity of the holy body."
The weather will soon enter summer, and the weather is hot. Although spices and ice cubes are piled around the body to keep it from rotting, the body will also rot as time goes by.
Jia Heng held a flawless white ivory wat tablet in his hand and quickly walked out to the class, holding his hands in front of him.
Li Zan also came out of court and saluted Zhen Qing.
At this moment, among the cabinet ministers, Lu Jiang's face was as gloomy as iron. He stared at the young man in the python suit who had come out to take orders. Under his thick eyebrows, there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
This person has shown signs of rebellion, and he may not develop dissent and oppose the imperial court in the future.
Gao Zhongping frowned, and his heart was covered with a thick layer of haze.
Although the title of Prince is a small vassal, it also violates the ancestral system. Where will the Han Dynasty go in the future? If it is really usurped by King Wei, how will they go to Jiuquan to meet the Holy Emperor?
The Minister of Military and Aircraft was attending the court, and King Beijing was dressed in a white python suit with heavy mourning. At this moment, his eyes were condensed as he looked at the young man in the python suit, and he was a little shocked.
Ziyu is now a prince, and his status is still higher than that of a county prince.
Zhen Yingjia, Zhen Shao and others also looked at the boy in the python suit with complex expressions on their faces.
Because Zhen Qing has now become the Queen Mother, Zhen Yingjia and Zhen Shao are still dominated by Zhen Qing.
Lin Ruhai, who had just returned from preparing for customs affairs, looked at the young man in the python suit with worry. His son-in-law had now become a prince, how could all the officials in the world not doubt him?
Jia Zheng returned to Beijing to report on his work, so he also attended the court meeting this time. He stared at the young man in the python suit with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes.
In other words, Jia Zheng can no longer understand Jia Heng's power today.
Ziyu is now a prince, and he is extremely rich and glorious. It is time to retreat bravely, but the current situation in the court seems to be that if you don't advance, you will die.
At this moment, the other officials in the palace had equally complex and inexplicable expressions on their faces.
The previous performance of the Kedao Yanguan did not actually sway King Wei at all, but instead made him feel upright and reprimanded everyone.
After everything was settled, Zhen Qing's eyebrows were trimmed, her eyes were shining brightly, she looked at the young man in python suit, and said as if knocking: "King Wei, our country, the Han Dynasty, is in a state of turmoil now. As the saying goes, the strong wind knows the strong grass.
You know your loyal ministers, so you must be sincere in your work, be diligent in self-cultivation, work with the cabinet ministers to assist the new emperor, and live up to the trust of two generations of emperors."
Jia Heng underwent plastic surgery to calm down his expression, and said loudly: "I will live up to your mother's teachings."
Now that his son is the emperor and his lover is the empress dowager, he may be able to implement his political ideas without usurping the throne at all.
But that’s about twenty years.
As his son grows up, he will most likely not recognize himself as his father, because the source of his legal legitimacy comes from the new emperor, and he may even take power back from himself.
In other words, he will end up like Lu Buwei in the future, not recognized, not appreciated, not missed, and even illegitimate children like himself may be hated by Zhen Qing's son, or even cut off.
It can be foreseen that the future will be a drama of fighting among each other.
Zhen Qing nodded her head, and under her willow eyebrows, her clear eyes flickered, and she said: "My lords, Emperor Xianzong will be buried the day after tomorrow. Please go back and tidy up in preparation for the funeral."
Below, all the civil and military ministers in the palace bowed their hands and said goodbye.
Zhen Qing's slender and emerald willow eyebrows were raised, her sparkling and clear phoenix eyes flickered, she looked at the young man in python suit like dew, and said in a clear voice: "King Wei stays, I will
The palace has something to ask me."
There was no strange look on Jia Heng's face. He bowed his hands to Zhen Qing and said loudly: "Yes, your Majesty."
This Mopan is not afraid that others will spread rumors about his love affair with him, and then the scandal will spread all over the city.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in Qing history, just like Zhang Juzheng and Empress Dowager Li. The love history between the two has been arranged several times and has been vividly described to outsiders.
??????????.??????
After all the ministers in the palace had dispersed, Zhen Qing, under her willow eyebrows, fixed her eyes on the young man in python suit, and said softly: "Zi Yu, now that you have become a prince, you will do your best to assist Jie'er in the future. I have been looking for you in the past few days."
Master, if you teach Jie'er about literature, Taoism and martial arts, you should be there to give me some pointers."
Now that the person in front of him is given the title of prince, he will not be biased towards the Song family.
Humph, I'll look for Mrs. Song in the next two days and make her feel at peace recently.
Jia Heng stared at the infant Chen Jie. At this moment, the little guy smiled at Jia Heng. Chen Jie, who inherited the excellent genes of his mother and father, although he is still young, has already appeared
A bit handsome.
While Zhen Qing was talking in the room, she handed her son to the female officer serving at the side. Then, she looked at the young man in the python suit with longing eyes and said: "King Wei, you come with me."
When Jia Heng looked at those scorching, charming eyes, he felt a little strange in his mind.
This millstone will not be placed in front of King Chu's coffin...
This is really disrespectful.
In other words, doing this will be punished by God, right? Then, the King of Chu transformed into a corpse, with his head and body covered with green hair?
Zhen Qing then went to the side hall where the coffin was parked, without saying much else and with a calm expression. At this moment, there were still female officials and nuns kneeling beside the coffin, crying in front of the coffin. All the civil and military ministers in the palace just now
During the discussion, the sound of crying could be heard faintly in the palace.
Because the new emperor had no other concubines except Zhen Qing, he could only find some palace servants to fill the number.
Zhen Qing's face was cold, and she ordered the female official beside her, "It's noon, let all these people go down to eat, and come back in the afternoon."
The female officer responded softly, then turned and left without saying a word.
Jia Heng felt more and more weird, his eyes flickered, he looked at Zhen Qing and said, "What are you going to do?"
Under Zhen Qing's eyebrows, her bright eyes were like dew. She stared at the young man in the python suit and said angrily: "What else can I do here?"
This person may be experiencing some bad water in his heart.
However, when she was gnashing her teeth in hatred towards that person and feeling secretly angry in her heart, she also thought about how to get angry at that person in front of his soul.
Jia Heng looked solemn and said loudly: "You should have seen the performance of the civil and military ministers in the court today. Today's discussion is boiling, and everyone is attacking."
Zhen Qing said in a delicate voice: "You have too few people in the court who can speak out and defend you. Although your father-in-law is also a cabinet minister, you have rashly spoken out and become the target of public criticism."
Jia Heng agreed and said: "Yes, looking around, there is no one in the court who can stand up and speak out."
Under Zhen Qing's slender willow eyebrows, her charming and flowing eyes stared quietly at the young man in python suit, and said softly: "This year's Enke, you will be the examiner, thinking that postponing the new policy and selecting talents, we can tap
Some talent.”
Jia Heng said: "This method is very good, but even Jinshi have their own schools and hometowns. Many of them may be able to gather together for convenience, but if you want to last long, you still need to convince people with your principles."
Even students of cabinet ministers can turn against their teachers. The key is to have a set of Neo-Confucian doctrines to win over people's hearts.
That is to say, he wants to construct his own Neo-Confucian theory and gain the right to speak in the ideological field.
Zhen Qing said, pointing to the coffin parked not far away in a remote corner, and said softly: "Come with me."
Jia Heng glanced at the location of the coffin, and a strange look appeared on his calm face.
No, is the millstone real?
Jia Heng didn't say much. As he spoke, he followed Zhen Qing and walked towards the side hall.
At this moment, Zhen Qing squatted down on the side of the car, raised her eyes, and stared at the young man in the python suit, with a hint of infatuation in her charming and flowing eyes.
The slender hands came closer, and Tan's mouth opened. After a while, the plump and soft face turned as red as drunkenness, and the charming and flowing eyes were full of joy.
Jia Heng's cold brows and eyes were full of relief, and his face was full of joy.
At this moment, the coffin of King Chu was parked not far away, with white flags surrounding it.
Jia Heng was inexplicably frightened, especially when he lowered his eyes, looking at the dignified and gorgeous beauty, his face sometimes swelled up and down, and he felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
I don’t know how long it took, but Zhen Qing coughed violently several times. The sides of her face were as red as a peach, and she swallowed. Her face was as red as drunkenness. When she raised her eyes, under her curved eyebrows,
Jingran's beautiful eyes looked at the boy in the python suit with anger and said, "You are really ridiculous."
The man seemed to have choked her.
Jia Heng stared deeply at Zhen Qing, who still had white dew hanging from the corner of her mouth, but there seemed to be a look of surprise on her face.
I thought secretly, didn’t you bring this up? How could it come into your mouth and become ridiculous to me?
At this moment, Zhen Qing wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and her face as white as snow became even more bright and charming.
At this moment, Jia Heng was gently adjusting his clothes. Under his sword-shaped brows, he looked at Zhen Qing with deep eyes and flashing eyes, urging: "Hurry up, don't let anyone see you."
Zhen Qing responded softly, rolled her eyes at the young man in the python suit, and said secretly, why were you so unhappy just now?
Jia Heng stared at Zhen Qing and whispered: "How are you these days in the palace?"
Zhen Qing said warmly: "What are you asking about? If you are asking about the relationship between me and the Song family, I have not done much to provoke her in the past few days."
Jia Heng nodded and said warmly: "That's not the case. I will let the guards in the palace take turns. You and Jie'er should also be careful."
As Zhen Qing trimmed her eyebrows, she rolled her beautiful eyes at the boy in the python suit and said, seemingly jokingly or sarcastically, "It's rare to see you caring so much about Jie'er."
Jia Heng looked a little unnatural and said: "What you are saying is that my son is also my flesh and blood, how could you not care."
Well, flirting and flirting next to King Chu's coffin is a bit unscrupulous. I'm afraid this will be punished by God, right?
Zhen Qing's eyebrows were curved, her crystal-clear eyes flickered, and she said softly: "In a few days, let Lan'er and Xi'er come from outside and enter the palace to talk together. I am here in the palace,
It's all alone, with no one to talk to."
Of course, this is also the hope that Jia Heng can come with him.
Jia Heng thought for a moment, his eyes flickered, and he said softly: "I'll see if I can find another reason to enter the palace."
Zhen Qing sighed softly and said: "It's really boring for me to be in this palace."
I originally thought that after becoming the empress dowager, I could listen to politics behind the curtain, and perhaps life would be a little more interesting. But when the day actually came, I realized that it was just that.
Jia Heng looked at Zhen Qing with a look of sadness on her face, feeling inexplicable.
…
…
Rongguo Mansion, Rongqing Hall
Jia's mother was sitting on a soft couch on one side of the Arhat bed, talking to Mrs. Xing Wang's second wife. Aunt Xue and Sister Feng were sitting next to her.
Everyone was telling jokes, and with Sister Feng here, there was no shortage of laughter in Rongqing Hall.
While several people were talking, Lin Zhixiao's family suddenly entered the hall and said, "Old lady, the second master is back."
When Jia Mu heard this, she looked surprised and said in a low voice: "Isn't he going to the palace to go to court today?"
After a while, I saw Jia Zheng, wearing a third-grade official robe, entering the Rongqing Hall with a happy face.
Jia Mu looked surprised and asked, "Zheng'er, what's going on?"
Jia Zhengdao: "Mother, my son, the new emperor has succeeded to the throne, and Ziyu has been granted the title of Prince."
Jia Mu: "..."
The prayer beads in Mrs. Wang's hand already showed fingernail marks, and there was a hint of shock on her fair face.
Prince? This is another promotion compared to the prince?
Sister Feng smiled and said: "Prince?"
When Jia Mu heard this, a look of surprise appeared on her old face and she said: "Prince with a different surname?"
At this moment, a prosperous smile appeared on Aunt Xue's fair face involuntarily.
Jia Zheng nodded, but there was some opposition on his elegant and clear face, and he said in a low voice: "It's just that there are endless objections from the civil servants in the DPRK."
"When will those civil servants not object?" Jia Mu said angrily with a look of contemplation on her old face.
Jia Zheng's face froze and he said, "That's what my mother said."
But no, ever since Ziyu was granted the title of earl, then to the title of marquis, then to the title of duke, the opposition from the civil servants in the DPRK never stopped.
