Unparalleled Concubine

Lord Jing'an got up and patted His Highness the Prince on the shoulder.

"I have to say that Your Highness is very lucky."

"Three consecutive generations of emperors in the Jin Dynasty can be regarded as wise emperors. They have left a very solid family background for His Highness."

"Even if Your Highness becomes a foolish emperor in the future, he will never be defeated in three to forty years."

Chapter 836 The Death of the First Emperor

The change of imperial power at this time is far less tense than the situation in the Renchen Palace ten years ago. You must know that during the palace change ten years ago, almost all the inner guards in the palace were killed and injured, and more than half of the Habayashi guards were killed or injured. In the city, there is only one color left.

Even when Emperor Taikang knelt before the spirit of Emperor Chengde, Li Xin and others did not stop. At that time, Li Xin did not close his eyes for two or three days. situation.

But now it is very different. Most of the three imperial guards in the capital are in the hands of the Xie family, and Xiao Zheng is in charge of the inner guards in the palace. Xiao Zheng has no reason to betray His Royal Highness, and the prince also has a teacher, Li Xin, who is in charge of the capital. Forbidden Army, it is impossible for anything to go wrong.

Because there is no other force that can threaten the prince.

Therefore, after the death of Emperor Taikang, although the atmosphere in the capital was still tense, all links were proceeding in an orderly manner. After the prince knelt in Weiyang Palace for three days, he successfully became the emperor in front of the emperor's spirit and became the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty. The fourth emperor after Tianxia.

That is to say, after becoming the emperor, he is regarded as the emperor of the Jin Dynasty. As for the official enthronement ceremony, it is just icing on the cake and does not affect the overall situation.

After all, the purpose of the enthronement ceremony is to sacrifice to the heavens, but in fact, who is the emperor in the world, whether God knows or not, does not have much influence.

After the new emperor takes the throne, there are still a few days before the new year. Of course, no one in the capital is thinking about celebrating the new year. From Yongle square to all the squares in the capital are all plain white. Walking on the streets of the capital, occasionally Crying could be heard from nearby houses.

Many of these ordinary people are truly mourning the emperor, because the etiquette and rules of this era are here, and many people really treat the emperor like a father, and the emperor Taikang has been imperial for ten years. No matter what evil you do, the lives of the people in the capital will be much better than those in Chengde. Naturally, everyone will miss such a good emperor.

It can be expected that if there is some kind of bastard and foolish king in the Jin Dynasty in the future, people will not be able to say "I still remember the sages of Zhaojing back then".

The funeral of Emperor Taikang is proceeding in an orderly manner. Officials from the Ministry of Industry put the last handful of soil from the imperial mausoleum into the ground to complete the "Tailing Mausoleum" that was already under construction. People from the Ministry of Rites also discussed the emperor Taikang. The temple name and posthumous title, the temple name is Xuanzong, and the posthumous title is a word "Jing", that is, Emperor Xuanzongjing of the Great Jin Dynasty.

But the new year is coming soon, and the new emperor will change the Yuan after the new year. At this time, the Ministry of Rites is still discussing the "year name" after changing the Yuan, but there has been no result.

These things have nothing to do with Li Xin. He is currently in the Kunde Palace in the Imperial Palace, meeting Empress Xie who has been "upgraded" to become the Queen Mother.

This Kunde Palace has always been the residence of the Empress Dowager. The original Empress Dowager is also the current Empress Dowager. She is a very well-behaved person. Thank you Queen Mother.

Li Xin stood in front of the still young empress dowager with his hands down, and said in a deep voice: "Empress dowager, there are many doubts about the late emperor's death. Among other things, the Zhang family in Longhushan must give the court an explanation. Otherwise, this matter cannot pass!"

When Emperor Taikang died of illness, he was only in his 30s. It was the time when a man was at his most energetic. Li Xin didn't really believe in destiny. go down.

Empress Dowager Xie was only in her thirties, and she lost her husband. Naturally, she couldn't feel better. She first glanced at Li Xin, and then asked, "What should the Taibao do?"

"I request the imperial court to issue an order to thoroughly investigate this matter. I will lead Habayashi Wei out of Beijing and go to Longhu Mountain in person. Even if this sacred place of Taoism is turned upside down, I must find out the truth!"

The reason why Li Xin pursued this matter is that there are indeed many doubts in it, and it is impossible not to ask, and secondly, the former His Royal Highness King Wei is his friend, and the death of a friend is unknown, no matter whether he is a minister or a man. Friends, you have to ask what is going on.

Empress Dowager Xie frowned.

"It's not a good time for Marquis Li to leave the capital, right?"

It has only been a few days since the new emperor ascended the throne, and even the enthronement ceremony has not been held. It is far from the time to secure the throne. At this time, anyone can leave the capital, but Li Xin, the general of the forbidden army, cannot leave the capital. This is what the Empress Dowager Xie thinks very clear.

She said slowly: "Of course we need to investigate the matter of Longhushan, but we can't rush it for a while, and you can't go out of Beijing to investigate in person, Mr. Lihou."

Li Xin had known this would be the result, he lowered his head slightly, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, you can also investigate the matter of the minister not leaving the capital. Now the Yulin Guard is in charge of Xie Dai from the Xie family. I request the imperial court to issue an order. Let Xie Dai take the five hundred feather guards to Longhu Mountain, and bring all the people from the Zhang family in Longhu Mountain who should be brought to the capital."

"At that time, I can personally interrogate these people."

The Queen Mother still frowned slightly.

"The Zhang family in Longhu Mountain has always been conferred as a celestial master..."

"The heavenly master can't do anything wrong."

Li Xin bowed his head deeply.

"If we don't find out a result, how can the late emperor be at ease?"

Now, the empress dowager or the little emperor who has just ascended the throne for two days needs a backer like Li Xin as a support, so the empress dowager is not very good at opposing Li Xin. After she sighed, she said: "Well, Ben... The Ai family will let Xie Dai go to Longhu Mountain to get someone..."

She has always called herself "Ben Gong", but she is not used to changing her name suddenly at this time.

Li Xin lowered his head slightly: "The Queen Mother is wise."

Any yamen in the imperial court has its own functions. For example, Li Xin’s right battalion of the Forbidden Army, whose job is to defend the capital, does not belong to the Forbidden Army. Judicial power, so he can only take over this matter through the queen mother.

Emperor Taikang's death was unclear, and he had to find an answer no matter what. Even if he really offended the so-called land immortal sect in Longhushan, it would be great for him, Li Xin, to bear it alone.

Even the immortal sect on land could not withstand swords, guns, bows and crossbows.

After talking about this matter with the Queen Mother, Li Xin went back to his Jing'an Hou Mansion. At this time, the eldest princess had already returned from the palace, but she was still in a bad mood and often sat in a chair in a daze.

After Li Xin returned to the Hou's Mansion, he sat with her for a while, and when he was about to say something "considerable", Chen Shiliu's voice sounded outside the door.

"Master Hou, someone wants to see you outside."

Li Xin frowned and looked towards the door of the room.

"I didn't tell you that the late emperor passed away, and the Marquis Mansion closed its doors to thank guests. No matter who it is, they will all disappear."

Chen Shiliu was at the door and did not leave, but continued to speak.

"Master Hou, the man said that her surname is Yuwen, and she came from the north."

"She said that Lord Hou will meet her after hearing her surname."

Lord Jing'an frowned slightly, and finally stood up from the eldest princess's bed, and patted the eldest princess on the back.

"It's from the north, I'll go out and meet you."

The eldest princess nodded lightly: "Be careful yourself."

Li Xin pushed open the door, looked at Chen Shiliu at the door, and said in a deep voice, "Where is the visitor?"

"Now wait in the lobby."

Chen Shiliu lowered his head and whispered, "It's a girl, His Highness was here just now, I didn't dare to say..."

Lord Jing'an gave this guy a blank look.

"I'm going to see her right now."

Chapter 837 The "Little Three" Delivered to Your Door

More than 40 years ago, when the huge Northern Zhou Dynasty was still in existence, the surname Yuwen was not uncommon, because the Yuwen family was the royal family of the Northern Zhou Dynasty at that time, and there were tens of thousands of descendants of the Guangyu Wen family clan. The nobles are everywhere in the Northern Zhou Kingdom.

Not only that, because the national power of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was the highest in the world at that time, and many Han people also changed their surnames to Yuwen on their own initiative. Many Han people changed their surname to Yuwen, claiming to be the royal family of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and bluffed and deceived in the Jin Dynasty.
