Tang Xuan

On the thirteenth day of the twelfth lunar month in the 34th year of Kaiyang, a star streaked across the western sky.It was Ye Minghuang who died in Linde Hall.

The next day, Li Yu went to the court in a great funeral attire, and attended the funeral at the Zongzheng Temple of the Ministry of Rites.

And Ming Da, dressed in plain clothes, stayed in the palace, preparing for the last two chess moves arranged by the Ming Emperor before his departure.

Zhang Anren obtained the secret decree of the Ming emperor's Xingxi seal, and was escorted into Shu by Lang's nails.He only knew that it was a kind of protection, but he didn't know that it was a killing plan arranged by Shang Zixuan and others after discussion.If Zhang Quan does not follow the imperial decree, there will be a group of nails who follow secretly to carry out the assassination, and Zhang Anren will definitely not be returned to a minister who is about to plot against him in vain.

After several discussions, they all realized the current situation, and Zhang Anren carried the Ming Emperor's decree and promised that the Zhang family would inherit Shu Yihou and move to Chang'an.Even if Li Yu intends to settle accounts in the future, he still has to consider that this decree was made by Emperor Ming.It would be a good deal to exchange a hereditary Marquis for the peace of the entire Shunan Road.

And the second move of Emperor Ming was to order Concubine Liang to be buried.

"I am old, I have been foolish for many days, and I have harmed you." The dying emperor looked calm, looked at his little daughter, and said with a smile: "I know that understanding is one thing, but I don't know what to do. Father came to help you Pave the last road."

"Yuan Xuanhong is not an outstanding figure among the bad men of all dynasties." Emperor Ming closed his eyes and said word by word: "He is not ambitious, and he can only be said to be measured in doing things, but he is a person who values ​​affection. That's why , this person did not show up that night."

"Father..." Ming Da hurriedly held Ming Huang's hand, and said: "My daughter and Seventh Brother will take care of these things, the most important thing for you now is to take care of your body."

In the heart of Emperor Ming's hand was the warm little hand of his little daughter, and there was no more trouble in his heart, he said with a light smile, "Well, I listen to you."

Emperor Ming raised his spirit, and said to Jiang Liang: "Later, you go to Hanliang Palace to pass the decree, to bestow eight strings of incense beads on Concubine Liang, and to be buried in the Tailing Mausoleum as a virtuous concubine."

After saying that, Mingda suddenly opened his eyes wide, looking at Minghuang on the hospital bed in disbelief.Jiang Liang also shattered the medicine cup in his hand, and hurriedly knelt down.

"Father! I have never been buried in the dynasty, you are like this..." Ming Da naturally understands why Emperor Ming did this, but Ming Da will never tolerate the stigma such actions will bring to the emperor.

"I've made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me anymore." Emperor Ming whispered, "Yuan Xuanhong will sneak in secretly when he gets the news, and then it will be a good opportunity for my son. Instead of casting a net all over the sky, it's better to sit on the sidelines and wait for rabbits. When the time comes..."

Emperor Ming's eyes were firm, and he turned all his life's wisdom into these few words, and taught them to his daughter.Mingda nodded while listening with tears in his eyes, served him and drank the decoction that Jiang Liang brought, and then went with Jiang Liang to pass the decree.

The famous flower blossoms in the country and the two enjoy each other, and the king often looks at it with a smile.

Explain the infinite hatred of the spring breeze, and the Chenxiang Pavilion leans towards the north of Langan.

But in seven or eight years, Concubine Liang became the most honorable woman in the Tang Dynasty.There are 3000 beauties in the harem, and [-] dotes on one body.However, after King Huai conspired against her, Concubine Liang Gui was implicated in the rebellion of the Liang family, and she was confined to the Hanliang Hall.

This palace has completely become a cold palace, except for the guards on duty and the inner eunuch who stayed behind to serve, no one is willing to set foot there.

Tonight was different than usual.

Not only Jiang Liang, the chief supervisor who is now following the Emperor Ming, came to announce the decree, but also the "princess" without a title - Li Mingda.

The guards tremblingly opened the claustrophobic door, Mingda squinted his eyes, and stepped in together with Jiang Liang.

Although Emperor Ming refused to see Concubine Liang Guifei again, there was never a shortage of supplies.The Hanliang Hall was still prosperous in the past, and its owner, dressed in fine clothes, stood upright in the center, watching the people who came in, silent.

The nineteenth day of the twelfth lunar month is the first seven days of Emperor Ming.According to the previous decree, today is the time for Liang Guifei to commit suicide and be buried.

But within a few days, the graceful and luxurious concubine was already haggard, and her filial attire seemed to be coquettish and weak.Yuchi sighed in relief, and waved his hand to signal his guards to replace the guards of Hanliang Palace.After Jiang Liang presented the three-foot white silk, the two took half a step back, and Yu Chian held the ceremony and said: "I respectfully send you off to your mother."

Concubine Liang's personal maids had been replaced long ago, and at this time there were three middle-aged female officials, all of whom knelt down respectfully and said in unison: "Your servants send you off to your mother respectfully."

The beauty gave a sad smile, her plain hand caressed the white silk on Jiang Liang's tray, and slowly lifted it with a corner.This life is like a big dream. I thought that after entering the palace, I would be lonely until death, but suddenly I was loved all by myself.She was in harmony with Emperor Ming Qinse, only thinking that His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was her proper lover, but finally found that there was only one dead person deep in the eyes of that great emperor.

What he loves is only his young body and fairly superb piano skills, after all, he is not comparable to that bearded Yuan Xuanhong.

This thin man has never married, and he looks at her so fiercely.When Emperor Ming couldn't detect it, he hardly covered it up.Only then did Concubine Liang experience what it is to fall in love, and what it is to fight for a lifetime of rest and enjoy one day to the fullest.As for whose son Li Yuan was, she herself couldn't tell.

I have been holding on for a few months, and in such a field, he will not appear again, so come to save myself.Well, for a woman who watched her own son die, death is just the best destination.

Concubine Liang Guifei threw the white silk to the female officials, and waited for them to hang it on the beams of the house, and waited for them to arrange the "suicide" Shura field, even with a smile on her face.

She took off the silver hairpin that bound her hair, let her hair hang loose, approached step by step, and raised her legs to step onto the spring stool.

The white silk was already tied, Concubine Liang moved her head forward, tapped her toes, and kicked away the spring stool.

She died when she closed her eyes, but she instinctively struggled between life and death.The female officials around her knelt down one after another, chanting something in their mouths, which seemed to her to be in a trance.A sense of suffocation hit, his eyes became dizzy, but his cheeks were on fire.

Then, with a light body, Bai Ling was cut off by a flying knife. Before she fell, she was embraced by Yuan Xuanhong who appeared out of nowhere.

The ambushed Jinwu guards poured out from everywhere, and the future people surrounded him, making it hard for him to fly.

Ming Da took off the prisoner's hat, stepped forward from behind Jiang Liang, and said, "Shuai Yuan, long time no see."

Yuan Xuanhong shaved his beard and hid in the inner prison, no wonder he couldn't be found everywhere.Holding a short blade in one hand, and protecting Concubine Liang Gui in his arms with the other, he replied: "The girl has always been at ease in Weiyang, why did she have to go through this muddy water?"

"Daddy gave Xingxi to me to kill you traitors at this time." Ming Da disdained to talk nonsense with him, and said, "Catch it with your arms free! You can't escape."

Yuan Xuanhong looked at the woman who passed out in his arms, and said: "Girl, the crime of Conghuai is unforgivable, I have nothing to say. I came here today, although I know you are forcing me to show up, but Yuan still came. "

"Yuan knows exactly what the girl is thinking." Yuan Xuanhong looked around, gestured slightly back to the dormant villain, and said, "Yuan came here because he wanted to make a deal with the girl."

"But please let me make it easier for you, there are too many people here." Yuan Xuanhong has been refusing to put down the dagger, but now he throws it away generously, wrapping his hands around the leisurely transformation Concubine Liang, only looking at Mingda without squinting .

Mingda nodded, and said: "General Yuchi, withdraw the guards." She waved her hand, and Yuchi'an led the guards out, leaving only the noble concubine Yuan Xuanhong and Ming Dalan in the huge Hanliang Hall.

"Everyone has retreated, please." Mingda sat down on Dongshou and made a gesture of sitting.

Concubine Liang Gui whispered: "This is..."

"Don't say anything first." Yuan Xuanhong whispered a few words, refused to sit down, still stood, and said: "Girl, Yuan has been a bad person since he was a bad person, and he has been hidden in darkness all his life. You people who are always in the sun are not I can't understand my state of mind. I have no children in my life, but I don't want my son to have to fall into such a field."

"In the matter of Conghuai, Yuan had no choice but to hide his face at the last moment and protect the late emperor in secret." Yuan Xuanhong showed a painful look, and said: "The late emperor treated me well, Yuan'er died, and it is also Yuan's death." Pay it back."

Mo Dao said that there were many dead men that day, and Emperor Ming was able to retreat completely.Mingda remained silent, quietly waiting for his next words.

"The bad seal is here, Yuan just wants to take her out of Chang'an." Yuan Xuanhong stopped talking nonsense, took out a thumb-sized copper seal from his arms, threw it far away, and was caught by Lan Jun.

"The rebel Yuan Mou among the bad people has killed all of them, and the rest are loyal and brave people. But in Tubo, most of them were bought by Princess Gucheng. "Yuan Xuanhong spoke very fast, and said: "Wei Zhongchun is dead, and the bad people in Anxi are almost wiped out, but most of the nails in the Mugong's mansion remain. It is very fortunate."

"The girl is in charge of bad people according to the last emperor's will. She and Mu Kilometer should cooperate with each other. The Tubo rebellion will be settled just around the corner. Yuan and the imperial concubine will disappear from today, and she will never set foot in the Tang Dynasty again in this life." Seeing that Mingda remained calm, Yuan Xuanhong just Neng gritted his teeth and said, "I beg the girl to be fulfilled!"

Mingda lowered his head and secretly calculated, what Yuan Xuanhong said was actually almost the same as what she expected, and this procrastination was just to dig some more information from him.

Sure enough, Yuan Xuanhong had no choice but to continue: "The girl should not know that King Huai colluded with Tubo, and not only sent gunpowder, but also gave a lot of money. The current treasury is probably just an empty shelf, and it won't last long." Li Qian was ruthless in his work. , almost broke the vein of Datang, but this matter has not yet erupted.Sure enough, Mingda's expression changed, and Yuan Xuanhong said: "Miss Yu will know about this matter in a month, but if she knows it now, it is reasonable to make plans early."

"Why do you waste your time here, arguing with some useless person in Yuan?" Yuan Xuanhong really couldn't understand Mingda's considerations, so he could only calm down and wait.But at this moment, survival and death are beyond his control, and even though he has gone through trials all his life, he can't help becoming nervous.

Ming Da is thinking about the treasury, the rear army and the follow-up food and grass will all depart from Chang'an to Dunhuang after the spring of next year, if the treasury is empty, I am afraid that everything will have to be abandoned.

Li Qian, even if you die, will it bring disaster to Datang?

Mingda smiled wryly for a moment, and said: "I will give you an order to give you one night. The noble concubine has already been buried, and the coffin will be closed tomorrow. On the day of father's funeral, we will be buried with Tailing together."

Yuan Xuanhong heaved a sigh of relief, knelt down with Concubine Liang half in his arms, and saluted, "Yuan Xuanhong thanked the late emperor for his kindness, and thank you miss for raising your hand. If you don't set foot on your homeland in this life, please rest assured, miss."

Mingda closed his eyes wearily and waved his hand.Yuan Xuanhong didn't dare to procrastinate, picked up Concubine Liang and left from the side door which was concealed, and disappeared into the night.

When he came back after hearing the news, Li Yu could only see Mingda curled up in a large chair with a dazed expression.He didn't care about other people's etiquette, walked up quickly, and asked softly: "Mingda? What do you need to discuss with Seventh Brother, even if the sky is falling, Seventh Brother will help you!"
