The weather was fine on this day, but unfortunately it was very rough from the beginning.
The new Emperor Che Yuanwen stayed overnight in the Imperial Study, probably because he was overworked recently and because of the strong wind last night, it was only early in the morning that the palace servants discovered that he had a fever.
When Che Shanxue, who was dressed in mourning, rushed over through the white flags in the palace, a large group of eunuchs and courtiers outside the imperial study had already knelt down.
Before stepping over the threshold, he and the young chief eunuch who was admonishing these young eunuchs and palace men exchanged glances, the other party shook his head, and Che Shanxue's expression sank immediately.
In the imperial study room, Che Yuanwen tried to get up while waving his arms, but was pressed on the bed by the frantic imperial doctor.
As soon as Che Shanxue came in, Che Yuanwen turned his pitiful eyes for help, and shouted: "Uncle Emperor, I think I can go to the Imperial Mausoleum to preside over the funeral, please persuade Master Li...he Hurry up and tie me to the bed with a rope."
The bearded imperial doctor was furious when he heard the words: "My lord, this on your body is hot enough to bake eggs! Do you still want to preside over the burial?"
Che Yuanwen: "Huh? Burning so badly? I don't feel anything?"
Doctor Li: "Shit!"
The old and the young looked at each other for a moment, and then turned their heads to look at Che Shanxue.
"Uncle and Grandpa!"
"Grand Master!"
They said in unison: "Come and judge!"
Has this kid Che Yuanwen been acting like a baby more and more recently?Che Shanxue thought helplessly, sat down on the edge of the bed first, and reached out to feel the heat on Che Yuanwen's forehead.
Feeling the temperature of the bottom of his hand, Che Shanxue was only silent for a moment, and then agreed with Li Yuyi's point of view.
"Have a good rest today."
"But, but today is my father's burial, as a son of man—"
"Your father probably doesn't want you to faint in front of the imperial mausoleum," Che Shanxue interrupted him, "I'm afraid there will be some bad rumors if you take a rest today due to minor illness, but if you faint in front of everyone , the whole country will be in turmoil. As an emperor, you must take this into consideration.”
Che Yuanwen still didn't want to give up.
"Please come to the doctor, as long as you can survive today..."
Halfway through his speech, he couldn't help but weaken his voice when he met Shangche Shanxue's disapproving eyes.
Che Shanxue's palm was pressed against his forehead, and the warm hand brought coolness to Che Yuanwen, who was dizzy from the heat, and he couldn't help rubbing it.
The next moment, Che Yuanwen blushed when he realized what he had done, and hurriedly wanted to explain himself.But he didn't want the comfort brought by the bursts of cold to make people indulging, Che Yuanwen struggled for a while, then fell asleep.
Che Shanxue stared at the young man's peaceful sleeping face without moving, until the first bell rang on the palace wall, waking him up abruptly.
"Protect Your Majesty well," Che Shanxue ordered.
The chief eunuch lowered his head, and Che Shanxue stood up, exhaling slowly as if he wanted to expel something invisible from his body.
After confirming that there were no clues showing from his whole body, he turned and left the imperial study room, and while striding forward, he raised his hand to tie the snow-white belt on his forehead.
No need to prepare anything, he rushed directly to the main hall where Che Hongyong and Che Yan Tingling lived.
In front of Suzaku's gate, civil and military officials and guards of honor were already waiting there, as were thousands of musicians and rites.Numerous white banners hung neatly on both sides of the road, and more white banners and Wanmin umbrellas were held high in the hands of the guides.Paper money was scattered like falling flowers, covering people's waiting sight.
When the bell on the palace wall rang for the third time, the gate of Suzaku Palace opened.
140 Four burly men came out one after the other carrying two huge coffins, and the eunuchs in white clothes and white caps followed in eight rows and joined the team of guiders.
Everyone found their positions quickly and neatly, whether it was the person holding high the paper figures, palaces, horses, gold, silver and treasures, or the soldiers holding various flags, spears, and bright armor, or blowing and pulling bullets. The musicians who knocked on the coffin, or the Zhu teachers who kept reciting mantras in words that ordinary people could not understand when they saw the coffin, all stood in the team.
Civil and military officials, ministers and princes walked in the middle, all with stiff expressions, because the person who walked at the front of their team.
That position should have belonged to the new emperor, but it was taken by Che Shanxue, who was both the great master and the regent.
News of the emperor's illness spread quickly.Just as Che Shanxue expected, the group of people who claim to be the smartest people in the entire Dayan never thought about the possibility that the Holy One was really sick. From the time when the great master seized power, the emperor was dead, to when the Tian family had no father and son before the emperor was alive. I'm afraid it's not good to treat the new emperor, so the new emperor doesn't want to preside over today's big funeral.During the short journey from Suzaku Gate to Huangling, there were at least a dozen versions of rumors that could not be matched.
When they arrived in front of the imperial mausoleum, everyone encountered the second unsatisfactory thing.
There seemed to be something wrong with Taizu's imperial tomb, and the Lizhus rushed around in a hurry, but they couldn't solve it for a long time.
If this delay continues, not to mention the re-burial of Tai Zu, even the burial of the late emperor who will be arranged later will also be delayed.
All the officials stood in front of the imperial mausoleum for a long time, dazedly waiting for an order from the Grand Master.
Let Che Hongyong be buried first.
Doing so is simply not paying attention to etiquette.Although the two saints buried today are both emperors, Tai Zu is the founding emperor of the country, and even the grandfather of Che Hongyong. No matter according to the law of the country or the law of the family, they should be ranked first.
But the reason given by the Great Master is not without reason.Tai Zu Huang Mausoleum is not allowed to enter, and the court is full of troubles, there is no time for civil and military officials to stand stupidly and bask in the sun.After the officials of the Ministry of Rites were dismissed, the newly appointed ministers who were proud of their pragmatism had no choice but to bite the bullet and reluctantly change their way to the new imperial mausoleum.
72 strong men laboriously carried Che Hongyong's coffin into the newly repaired imperial tomb on the side of the Cheshanchang Imperial Mausoleum. Everyone bowed three times; The whole imperial mausoleum closed slowly from the dome, and sank a foot high into the ground under the vibration, leaving only a resplendent Yin palace on the ground, and everyone worshiped three times.
The thick incense sticks are inserted into the copper tripod, the top is red, and white smoke billows up, rising into the sky like a dead person, and disappearing into the wind.
On the other side, in the mausoleum of Emperor Taizu, the Li Zhus finally found out what the problem was.
"After the emperor's mausoleum was intruded by the thieves last time, there have been some changes in the mausoleum of Tai Zu Huang. Today, a barrier has been opened outside, and only blood relatives are allowed to enter." Li Zhu, who had counted the auspicious day, tremblingly said to him. Che Shanxue said, "...the barrier is not unsolvable, but after it is unsolvable, the lower officials cannot guarantee what will happen in the imperial tomb."
"That means I can only go in." Che Shanxue concluded.
"The lower officials are incompetent." Li Zhu lowered his head even lower.
"It's nothing," Che Shanxue waved his hand, "I'll send my father back, you guys go back to the city first."
Li Zhu was surprised and said: "How can that be, the next ceremony is not finished yet, everyone should at least wait until you come out of the imperial tomb..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard the great master lower his voice and say: "Today is not an auspicious day at all."
Is this accusing him of miscalculating auspicious days?Li Zhu thought dazedly.However, even though he presided over the work of counting auspicious days, several other Dalizhu also participated in it, so it is impossible for them to make mistakes together.
Does this "unlucky" mean superficially?I heard that the Yu clan of Daxing Xiaoxingling mastered the secret technique of Meng Zhan, and that the blood of the Yu clan was flowing in the body of the Great Master, did he see something?
Recalling the troubles encountered in this burial, Li Zhu's face turned pale.It should be a farewell soon, and inform the ministers and honor guard musicians of the news of returning to the palace.
This news immediately caused the crowd to explode. Countless ministers took turns to fight, and the eloquent men made their moves one by one, but they were still persuaded by Che Shanxue to go back.
When everyone reluctantly embarked on their return journey, Che Shanxue looked up at the position of the sun, and once again called out the big hand made of wind essence.
Chen Wei hadn't come back yet, he didn't know who he said to, "Let's go."
The coffin floating in mid-air slowly entered the imperial mausoleum along the tomb passage. Che Shanxue walked behind and passed the barrier outside the imperial mausoleum without any obstacles.
He glanced at the murals on both sides of the tomb passage and above his head, looking for familiar figures among them. Compared with his memory, he felt very strange.
Walking all the way to the end of the tomb passage like this, Che Shanxue saw the door of the main tomb was open, and a smaller coffin was placed to the right of the center.
Yu Caoxing opened the coffin that day and took out Yu's skull, but did not close the lid.Che Shanxue flicked her fingers, causing Che Yan's coffin to fall on one side, and then walked to the other coffin, looking at the bones that had lost their heads.
The box containing the skull was put in his arms by using the secret technique of shrinking. Che Shanxue took out the box and opened it, held the skull with both hands, and put it into the coffin.
Then he carefully observed the coffin again, as if he wanted to see the woman with a vague face in his memory from the bones.
The entire main tomb room held its breath quietly. After a while, Che Shanxue, who couldn't think of anything, sighed, took a few steps back, and knelt down on his knees regardless of the coldness and dust on the ground.
He stared at the neat texture on the gold brick floor, thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "Your son is not filial, let others disturb the queen's sleep. The third generation of Dayan was almost destroyed in my hands. Fortunately, Yuan Wen This kid is talented, good-natured, neither arrogant nor impetuous, seeing him and other young people seems to be able to see the future."
"I'm already one hundred and seven years old. I haven't married yet. I've always worried you..."
Che Shanxue hesitated for a moment before continuing to speak.
"If I can get through this calamity safely, I will probably let go of the regency and even the affairs of the Grand Enshrinement. Yuan Wen has proved that he can do a good job. As for the Great Enshrinement, even if the boss cannot return, the third child should be able to take over the burden. .If... if you agree..."
This time he hesitated even longer, so long that people thought he had already finished speaking.
It took a long time before Che Shanxue made up his mind.
"If you agree, I would like to live in Mount Qingcheng in the future and be buried after death, and I don't really want to stay with Hongjing."
Knowing that it was impossible to get an answer, Che Shanxue said this sentence again as a question.
"Do you agree?"
"I don't think my uncle and aunt would agree."
A familiar voice sounded behind him.
The next moment, a sharp piece of white bone pierced through Che Shanxue's restraint all over his body, stabbing him from behind to his chest.
The new Emperor Che Yuanwen stayed overnight in the Imperial Study, probably because he was overworked recently and because of the strong wind last night, it was only early in the morning that the palace servants discovered that he had a fever.
