Good Life in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 194 Everyone Comes to the Funeral

As soon as Lu Buwei howled, it was like firing a signal flare. Everyone cried and couldn't help themselves. Ying Zheng took the opportunity to take them to the place where the coffin was stopped in the front palace. King Zhuang Xiang hadn't been wrapped there yet, and he was still nothing. No clothes, covered with a pure white mourning cloth.

That piece was too obvious, when the ministers saw it, their crying stopped abruptly for a while!

"What, what's going on?" Lu Buwei was furious!

If King Zhuang Xiang is alive, before he knows Ying Zheng's life experience, he is of course the primary beneficiary. Even now, he feels that it is better for King Zhuang Xiang to be alive than dead. If he is alive, Ying Zheng will be justified in the future It will be even more beautiful to know about this at that time.

The key is that Yingzheng is still young and not suitable to be in charge, so there must be an assistant minister. This assistant minister cannot be one person, at least three, and at most thirty!

Looking at the state of Qin today, three is not enough, thirty is too many, at least ten is needed.

"This is the real cause of my father's death." Ying Zheng stopped pretending now, and looked at Mr. Cheng Jiao fiercely, his eyes were red: "That day, my father..."

Speaking of the matter, those ministers who originally supported Mr. Cheng became weak. Just now they all supported Mr. Cheng's ascension to the throne!

"Come on, suppress those people, as well as Mr. Cheng Jiao!" Ying Zheng was in power at the moment, and all the generals in the army listened to him, and immediately took the opportunity to dismiss all those who had second thoughts.

Lu Buwei is overjoyed!

He thought that Ying Zheng was paving the way for him, so he cut off a lot of people's hands in the first shot and made a lot of seats for him.

In the past, this group of elders still took advantage of King Zhuangxiang's grandson because they were the survivors of King Zhaoxiang. King Xiaowen was not picked because he died only three days after ascending the throne.

Now that King Zhuang Xiang is dead, who else do they want to deal with?

Just now, if Ying Zheng had immediately ascended the throne and became the lord of the country, they could still be justified as veterans of the four dynasties. Now, no way!

Who made them choose the wrong person!

These old officials were detained, and all the officials began to kneel and kowtow, and then retreated later. Mrs. Zhao Ji, who was full of filial piety, brought the harem women to cleanse King Zhuang Xiang crying, and then put on mourning clothes. There are no underwear, middle clothes and outer shirts. Who would know that the king just went there?

Anyone who dares to make mourning clothes for the king would be courting death!

Now they have to rush to make mourning clothes overnight. Fortunately, there is no shortage of anything in the palace, and they have to make close-fitting clothes all day and night.

It was a fig leaf for the dead King Zhuang Xiang, and he was covered with a duvet. The thing was light but thick!

It's barely visible that King Zhuang Xiang's piece is still sticking out!

The mourning hall is set up, and the spirit begins to cry, and by the way, collect the things that the king used during his lifetime. These must be buried with him. Mrs. Zhao Ji is also ruthless, but all women who have not given birth or conceived children will be given to the king. Funeral.

Those who had conceived children but were not born, cried for the lord; those who had children but survived, took the children to watch for the lord.

The blood of the king, no matter how big or small, must be watched, not to guard what they are doing, but to watch that the children will not get sick because of the king's affairs.

Mrs. Zhao Ji arranged it very well. Except for those women who did not have children who needed to be buried with them, she even spared the lives of those women who did not keep their children.

Who in the harem is not convinced?

Besides, it seems that the eldest son is going to inherit the position of the king, and all the girls know that Mrs. Zhao Ji is the future queen dowager, who would dare to provoke her.

Li Jiyang thought that this would be enough, so he helped out in the front palace. He was the adopted son, and he was no less involved than Ying Zheng, his own son.

Fortunately, Li Jiyang was older than Yingzheng, and Yingzheng couldn't arrange many things, so Li Jiyang arranged them, such as crying spirit?

For all biological children, those over six years old cry three times a day, and one time is enough for those under six years old.

While guarding the spirit, Li Jiyang sighed: "I really want to thank Mrs. Wang Jiao!"

"Thank her?" Mrs. Wang Jiao is probably the woman Ying Zheng hates most now.

"If it weren't for her, there would be many people who would compete with you for the title of king!" Li Jiyang said with a wry smile, "I don't know how many children need to cry three times a day."

Ying Zheng was silent for a while, and felt that what Li Jiyang said made sense. If there were no jealous woman like Mrs. Wang Jiao, his father let go of his belly to play with women, and those women let go of their belly to give birth, and now he would have to talk to his father. At that time, there were more than ten and twenty sons.

Just thinking about it, someone came.

"Eldest son, the royal family members are here to worship." The servants came in with a solemn expression, and they were crying when they reported.

Li Jiyang couldn't help sighing, in this palace, even the drama of a servant is so good, if it is in modern times, I am afraid that everyone is a student of the Academy of Chinese Opera.

"Let them in!" Ying Zheng tidied up his mourning clothes, and went out with his head held high to meet his blood and nominal uncles and uncles.

Li Jiyang was the adopted son, and he had been fighting with Ying Zheng all the time. When he saw so many people, Li Jiyang finally realized Ying Zheng's silence just now.

King Xiaowen has been the prince for 40 to [-] years, so he is really capable of giving birth!

Even if many were killed, even if many were sent away, there are still so many left!

Many of them are the sons of King Zhaoxiang and uncle Yingzheng. King Xiaowen didn't have time to clean them up. King Zhuangxiang cleaned up a batch, and there are so many left!

If it is not cleaned up, there is no telling how many people!

During the previous discussion, everyone said that I am afraid that King Zhaoxiang himself does not remember how many sons he has.

He still doesn't believe it, how can he not recognize his son?

It was later discovered that with so many sons, it is really possible that they would not be able to recognize them!

These people are all of Ying's bloodline, and those who did not inherit the throne are from the clan. After the worship, a man who seemed to be old came over.

Li Jiyang didn't know him, but Ying Zheng opened his mouth and called out, "Uncle Ziyan."

Ziyan, you can tell from the name alone that his biological mother is the noble daughter of Yan State.

"Well, Eldest Young Master, the Empress Dowager Huayang and Empress Xia are already on their way back to the palace." Mr. Ziyan stroked his beard and told them, "We will be entering Xianyang City later."

Ying Zheng's face straightened: "I know."

Li Jiyang just remembered these two. The Empress Dowager Huayang died in the 17th year of Yingzheng, and the Empress Dowager Xia died earlier in the [-]th year of Yingzheng.

But now they are still alive!

Mrs. Huayang is the queen of King Qin Xiaowen, and Xia Ji is the biological mother of King Zhuang Xiang. Neither of these two people can be neglected!

After the royal family members all retired, Ying Zheng told Li Jiyang: "The Empress Dowager Huayang and the Empress Dowager Xia have treated me very well. When A Niang just came back, it was thanks to the help of their staff who stayed in the palace that she was able to stand firm. heels."

Li Jiyang understood, even if he had money to clear the way, even if Zhao Ji just came back, even if he had all kinds of means, the woman who just arrived would not be able to get her out, the most she could do was to buy some servants from the maid.

But those two were different.

"Then you have to greet him grandly!" Li Jiyang asked Ying Zheng.

"Well, the father is in a hurry. Usually the two grandmothers are trained in the palace, and Auntie personally sent someone to invite them back." Ying Zheng pulled Li Jiyang and said: "The father accepted you as a foster son, and you also You can call them mother-in-law."

"Okay." Being able to call the famous Mrs. Huayang her grandmother made Li Jiyang feel mixed feelings.

His biological grandmother was not as powerful as Mrs. Huayang back then!

Besides, his grandfather was not like Ying Zhu!

The empress dowager, Wang Jia, naturally had a lot of ostentation. Although the palace was not far away, there was still a guard of honor that should be there, so the itinerary was slow. Besides, the two empress dowagers also had thoughts in their hearts when the king passed away.

Especially the Empress Dowager Xia, it was like the sky was falling!

If it weren't for the presence of the Queen Mother Huayang, she might have wanted to commit suicide!

"The queen mother returns to the palace!" The huge motorcade finally entered Xianyang City. Li Jiyang followed Ying Zheng, welcoming the two queen mothers back to the palace. Hearing the voice of the servants, Ying Zheng went up to greet them first.

From the huge frame, a middle-aged woman stepped out first!

This woman was dressed in plain clothes, and only wore a white jade hairpin on her head. She had an oval face, willow-leaf eyebrows, and a pair of phoenix eyes. She was not angry but mighty.

But when he saw Ying Zheng, his painting style changed!

The deterrence in her eyes was replaced by kindness, and she opened her mouth in a soft Chudi tone, revealing her identity: "A Zheng, my grandson!"

This kind of appearance, coupled with the soft Wu Nong's soft words, has a unique style, which makes Li Jiyang immediately understand why Yingzhu has loved Mrs. Huayang for more than ten years.

Even if she didn't give birth to Yingzhu's son, her background and appearance alone are enough for Yingzhu to love her.

"Grandmother!" Ying Zheng's eyes turned red when he saw her.

"Grandson!" A gray-haired woman rushed over from behind.

No need to ask, just by looking at this dress, you can tell that it is the Empress Dowager Xia. Compared with Mrs. Huayang, who is like a 30-year-old mature royal sister, Fan Er, this is a half-bad old lady!

"Grandmother!" Ying Zheng also called out when he saw Queen Mother Xia.

Li Jiyang followed behind him, knelt down and kowtowed to the two empress dowagers: "The righteous grandson Li Jiyang has met the two grandmothers."

"You are Xiaoyang?" The Empress Dowager Huayang wiped her tears, helped Ying Zheng up with her own hands, and Li Jiyang was the second one: "My good boy, when you recognized your relative, your grandmother Xia was not feeling well and kept I was recuperating in the palace, so I didn't come back to watch the ceremony, I just made you a small gift."

Li Jiyang received it, but it was actually two jade pendants, a pair of jade pendants, one of sapphire and one of white jade, and the rest were some bamboo slips, the kind used to read characters, some cloth and meat, and two cloaks, it is said that the cloaks It was made by the two empress dowagers.

It was a gift from two grandmothers.

However, Li Jiyang didn't think of them even once when he sent them to the palace. King Zhuang Xiang was a good man and gave a share to the queen dowagers of the two palaces, which was Li Jiyang's filial piety.

Therefore, the two empress dowagers were still very familiar with Li Jiyang, and enjoyed those good things a lot.

The medicinal materials are still second, the pork is really delicious, and there are tofu and various tofu products.

"Grandson understands that this time, it's also because of his adoptive father's great behavior that he had to alarm the two grandmothers." Li Jiyang's words are so nice!

"Good boy." Empress Dowager Xia wiped away her tears: "Shall we go in?"

"Yes, if you have anything to say, let's go in and talk!" The Empress Dowager Huayang also wiped her tears, took the hand of Empress Dowager Xia, and walked in together. , did not go to support Mrs. Huayang, after all Mrs. Huayang is too young, and he has grown up, so he has to avoid suspicion.

They entered the palace gate, and their own carriage was parked there. Mrs. Zhao Ji brought a group of harem ladies, and when they saw the two queen mothers, they immediately cried: "The queen mother!"

"Get up, get up!" Madam Huayang's eyes turned red when she saw this, and Empress Dowager Xia even cried out, "My poor son!"

"Zhao Ji, you are fine. Although Zi Chu is gone, there is still Zheng'er!" Mrs. Huayang helped Mrs. Zhao Ji, and she ignored the others. "Yes, there is Zheng'er, and Zheng'er!" Ji supported the Empress Dowager Huayang on the phoenix chariot with great insight.

The Empress Dowager Xia dragged Ying Zheng onto the chariot, and Ying Zheng pulled Li Jiyang: "Grandma, and Xiaoyang."

"Yes, get in the car with grandma, let's go to see your father...for the last time..." The Empress Dowager Xia burst into tears as she spoke.

Ying Zheng and her are not often seen, but where is the blood relationship, so they persuaded her to mourn with Li Jiyang, especially Ying Zheng, as the next king, his attitude is very important.

Li Jiyang was able to talk again, and under soft persuasion, finally after entering the palace, Empress Dowager Xia stopped crying.
