Established a millennium family since King Wu defeated Zhou

Chapter 298 Withered, Empress Lu collapsed
It was a cold winter, Luo Xin stayed by the stove to deal with government affairs, and sighed slightly: "In this cold winter, I don't know who will die."

Since the princes and kings returned to the country, the first heavyweight to die was Xiao He, the former leader of the Han Dynasty.

It was also a very cold winter, Xiao He couldn't hold on, Luo Xin represented Lu Zhi and Liu Ying to the Marquis Feng's mansion in person, Xiao He was very weak at that time, but his spirit looked good under the reflection of the light.

After seeing Luo Xin, he even smiled and said: "It's a blessing for the prime minister to come to see He. He has never encountered any difficulties in his life. He followed Emperor Gao's army and benefited from Emperor Gao's destiny, but In a few years, he has changed from a poor family to a ten thousand householder, and he has no regrets.

At the time of death, the glory and wealth are just passing away, and now there are two things that are still worrying about. "

Luo Xin said softly: "You are an important minister of Yuan Cong who followed Emperor Gao. For you important ministers, the Empress Dowager will give you two-character posthumous titles, the first character of which is Wenwu. For your posthumous title, take Daodebowen, which is ordered The good law is called respect, and it is called 'Wen Jinghou'."

The reason for choosing the double character is because the single character is really inseparable. In the later period of the millennium of Bangzhou, even some kings began to use the double character posthumous title.

This is especially true for the Luo Kingdom, and it will last for an unknown number of years. The posthumous titles are simply not enough, and they may have to invent new posthumous titles themselves in the future.

The posthumous title of "Wen" is basically the best among posthumous titles, but "Wen" is also divided into high and low, and "Jingtianweidi" is the best among "Wen".

Ji Zhao and Luo Wengong called the text "Jing Tianwei and Di". These two people raised the standard of Jing Tianwei and Di to a bit high. Even if later generations give the text, they usually choose from other explanations.

After all, giving a posthumous title is accompanied by an explanation, and these must be passed down together with the posthumous title.

Xiao He was very satisfied. Both Wen and Jing were posthumous titles. If they could get this posthumous title from the son of the Luo family, they would have no problem going up to King Bingsu in the future. The posthumous title in this life is considered stable.

Then there was only one question left, Luo Xin was slightly silent, and then said: "I can only guarantee that there will be no problems in Fenghou's Mansion while I am alive.

But the gentleman's luster will be cut for five generations.

Fenghou's mansion is too beautiful, if there is no matching talent for the majestic Wanhuhou's mansion, the current prosperity and wealth cannot be retained.

Thinking back to the ancestors King Su, Duke Wen, and Duke Xuan, they were feudalized three times, and now none of them are left. This is the way of heaven. "

Xiao He said gratefully: "Dong Ahou can shelter for a while, this is already a great kindness, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, they still have to work hard on their own, how long can they rely on the kindness of their ancestors to shelter them?"

Xiao He passed away that night, and the royal family gave Xiao He extremely high treatment. The grand scene almost reached the extreme of being a courtier, it can be said to be extremely mournful.

Then just seven months later, Zhang Liang also passed away, and the imperial court gave "Wen Cheng" the posthumous title of "virtuous, beautiful, talented, and full of success." The heads of the two major factions passed away. It must be said that it was a big earthquake for the hero group.

And this is not the end, in the next two years, one after another older heroes passed away.

This is actually expected by everyone. After all, it has been so many years since the founding of the Han Dynasty. In an instant, the illness came like a mountain.

A number of obituaries poured into the palace like snowflakes, the most important of which was the death of Lu Ze's elder brother, Lu Zhi suffered a huge blow.

As one of the de facto shareholders of Dahan, his status in the Han court is completely different, but his posthumous title is determined according to his merits, and he also has to be King Bingsu. Even Lu Zhi cannot be infinitely improved.

So she pursued Lu Ze as a public, and won the ceremonial burial of princes and kings to reflect Lu Ze's special status. In the end, she was given the posthumous title of "Wu Ying" on the grounds that "commands call them military with obedience, and they are called English with a clear understanding." ", the world called "Wu Yinggong".

The second generation of the Lu family is not very good, at least it is far worse than Lu Ze. Lu Zhi has already started to arrange a way out for the Lu family, changing the fief back to the ancestral land of the Qi State, staying with Lu Cheng and others, and gradually Leave the center of power and take up some relatively noble official positions.

Basically, Chehou, who started his army from Fengpei and followed Emperor Gao, has gone from ten to five or six, and the others are gradually entering their twilight years. The giants of various factions have passed away one after another. Everyone laments that an era has really passed.

But the court is still as stable as Mount Tai, because the general Han Xin is still alive, and he supports the court while alive, so no one dares to challenge the court.

The regent empress dowager has great prestige in the court, and Sanluo maintains the court running steadily. The court has a lot of food and soldiers, and there are two generations of generals to succeed it. It is still the strongest force in the world, far inferior to the princes and kings.

Weiyang Palace.

Overwhelming curtains hang in the hall, which was hung by Lu Zhi five years ago.

There are maids standing beside each curtain, outside the curtain is Lu Zhi's office, and through the curtains to the innermost is the sleeping hall.

Behind the layers of curtains, Luo Xin and Lu Zhi leaned casually, "Eqin, there is an obituary from the Chu Kingdom, and the King of Chu has passed away. Please discuss the posthumous title and the affairs after death."

Lu Zhi was a little surprised when he heard the words. The Chu king of this generation had just ascended the throne for less than two years, and he went with the previous Chu king.

He couldn't help saying with some emotion: "The former King of Chu was a hero, but the current King of Chu is also smart, but he didn't expect to die one after another in a short period of time. I remember that the current heir of the Chu Kingdom is a child who is only ten years old.

Just give it according to the posthumous title of the prince who died early, son, I feel that if this continues, we will win without a fight.

I don't know if the concubine will be able to see that day, it seems that there is something wrong with my body recently. "

The court and the princes and kings are constantly dying, Luo Xin smiled, and was about to speak when he saw Lu Zhi, who was talking to him just now, swayed suddenly, and then fell backwards, Luo Xin quickly hugged her , The chill in my heart was so hot that I shouted loudly: "E-Jian! E-Jian!"

Seeing that Lu's pheasant didn't respond, he couldn't help but scream, and immediately shouted: "Quickly go and call the imperial physician order, the queen mother has passed out."

The whole Weiyang Palace fell into a sea of ​​panic, Luo Xin reprimanded loudly: "What are you panicking about?
Go to Changle Palace to invite His Majesty the Emperor to come, and everyone keeps their mouths shut. If the news leaks out, we will not be spared. "

Liu Ying hurriedly came from Changle Palace, and as soon as she entered the main hall, she asked Luo Xin urgently, "Prime Minister, how is your mother's condition?"

Luo Xin sighed slightly: "The Imperial Physician Order is inside, Your Majesty, please come with me."

The two passed through the curtain, Lu Zhi was lying there quietly, and the imperial physician Ling was administering needles, Liu Ying asked, "How about the imperial physician order? Please tell me the truth."

The Imperial Physician Ling was a little hesitant, but still said: "The Empress Dowager has no major problems for the time being, but her body is almost exhausted, and she may be able to take care of her life..."

Luo Xin's face turned pale in an instant, and Liu Ying's eyes turned red and she was about to cry. After the imperial doctor's order was withdrawn, Lu Zhi woke up, and she was very clear about her own body.

First, he looked at Luo Xin and nodded, then looked at Liu Ying and said with a smile: "Emperor, why are you crying? After my death, you will be the real emperor. The burden of all people in this world is on your shoulders. Can you bear it?" live."

Liu Ying cried: "My queen, please don't say that..."

"Emperor."

Lu Zhi interrupted him, raising his voice a little, "I never dislike you, I know you are a good boy.

But your temperament is really not suitable to be an emperor. I don't want you to be in power for a day, I am afraid that you will cause some troubles and bear some infamy. Now you can at least get a superior posthumous title, just in case...

Now that I am about to collapse, only Dong Ahou is left to assist you, but he is getting older, and if he assists you for ten or twenty years, what will you do in the future?

I am really worried. "

Liu Ying didn't expect Lu Zhi to say such a word, which was full of worries about him, choked up but didn't know what to say, he understood what Dong Ahou said when comforting him, "Parental love Son, then it is far-reaching", what does it mean.

"Go and call the important ministers such as San Gong and Jiu Qing. I have some things to arrange."

Lu Zhi has to make arrangements for his funeral.

After the important ministers and relatives of the clan arrived at the scene, Lu Zhi did not hesitate at all, and said directly: "The posthumous edict, after my death, Dong'ahhou will assist the emperor alone.

Everyone was shocked, even the emperor could not depose Dong Ahou, although Liu Ying would not do so, the edict was issued in front of everyone.

Lu Zhi directly issued the order to evict the guest, "Emperor, all your lords, you all go down, I want to talk to Dong Ahhou and explain some things."

Everyone saluted and then retreated. Luo Xin sat down and said, "E Ji, you shouldn't say that about the emperor. I will remove all obstacles for him and choose trustworthy ministers and assistants for him."

Lu Zhi said softly: "Young Master, this concubine is about to die."

Luo Xin choked.

Lu Zhi stretched out his hand tentatively, Luo Xin grabbed her hand and said calmly: "I will die too, don't be afraid of death."

A smile appeared on Lu Zhi's face, "I am not afraid of death, it's just a pity that I can no longer survive in the world and rule the world with my son."

Before dying, Lu Zhi asked Luo Xin many questions, and Luo Xin answered her one by one.

As he spoke, Lu Zhi's voice gradually dropped, and Luo Xin held her hand tightly.

For the first time, it was a little painful.

"The Queen Mother has collapsed!"

He shouted loudly towards the outside of the hall.
