Queen's Road in the Red House

Chapter 80 Canonization Ceremony

In the summer of the fourth year of Xuanhe, Empress Yang resigned from the throne on the grounds that she was too weak to take on the important task.

The news spread from Fengyi Palace and swept through the entire harem in an instant.

When the imperial concubine heard this, her legs went limp and she almost didn't kneel on the ground, for fear that the emperor would turn around and send the queen's seal to her palace.He has even begun to think about whether he should get sick quickly and timely.

When the emperor came out of Fengyi Palace, his face sank like water, and he had made up his mind.

--

Jia Lian has been working all night recently, and the whole Ministry of Rituals is going crazy overtime: canonizing a prince and three county kings at once is not an easy job.

Especially with the recent case of the queen being poisoned, the government and the public are in turmoil.

Mr. Xu, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, is a very cautious person. He was afraid that the Ministry of Rites would make a mistake at this time and be caught by Emperor Xuanhe as cannon fodder, so he worked overtime spontaneously and consciously at the age of sixty. move.

The old Shangshu has set a benchmark, not to mention the officials below, small bosses like Jia Lian are struggling on the front line of countless trivial matters.

Turning over the old routine every day until the eyes turn black.

The imperial city sleeps in the front and the back, and the value houses of the six departments are all inside the imperial city, located in the heart center of the capital.

Not every official is like Rongguo Mansion, who can still occupy a street in the place closest to the imperial city.In the capital where every inch of land is expensive, many officials cannot afford to buy a house, and often have to live in the cheaper south or even the suburbs of Beijing.

There are no servants at home who can bring warm meals, it is nothing more than a little tasteless meal from the big dining room of Liubu.

Jia Lian is very good at being a man in this respect, and he often distributes all kinds of pastries, pasta, and delicate side dishes sent by the mansion to his close colleagues to eat together.

Wang Xifeng is even better at being a human being, and every time the servant sends it off, he will prepare a separate copy for Xu Shangshu.

At first, Xu Shangshu stroked his beard to express that there was no need to be so troublesome, but then he began to "casually" say that the eggplant and whitebait in your house taste really good.

Jia Lian was very kind, and even delivered the secret recipe from the mansion the next day, and he often prepared these two dishes for Xu Shangshu in the future.

Gossip is far away, just say that now Jia Lian is having dinner with his colleague Zhang Fenghai.

Zhang Fenghai was one level higher than him, he was a member of the fifth rank, but he never put on airs in front of this Rongguo mansion successor, especially the cousin of the fourth concubine, and was as enthusiastic as his own brother.

At this time, he said to Jia Lian: "The emperor summoned Shangshu to the palace again. Alas, I'm afraid there will be another big event. We can't be too busy."

Jia Lian smiled wryly and shook her head: "I haven't been back for two days, I don't know if my son still recognizes me."

Zhang Fenghai winked at him: "Your son will be blessed in the future."

Jia Lian laughed and didn't talk to her.

Everyone in the Ministry of Rites is willing to take care of him, and this time, he specially entrusted him with the matter of the sixth prince's title of king, just because he was afraid that the other princes he handled would make some mistakes, and people would involve the fourth prince.

The two of them had just finished their meal when they saw Xu Shangshu coming in from the gate.

The duty room of the Ministry of Rites is not big, there are five or six rooms in total. Xu Shangshu clapped his hands and signaled everyone to look at him: "Everyone stop what they are doing and come here, and everyone in the backyard room is also called."

Zhang Fenghai and Jia Lian hurriedly stood up, Zhang Fenghai couldn't help muttering: "Master Shangshu's face is not right. But it doesn't look like it's a bad thing. It's more like..."

"It's as if he was shocked and didn't recover." Jia Lian said.

Seeing that everyone has arrived, Xu Shangshu coughed lightly: "From now on, the ceremony of canonizing the kings in your hands can be put aside for the time being."

Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed, and then buzzed and discussed.

Zuo Shilang couldn't help asking: "Master Shangshu, I've never heard of a king giving up halfway. Could it be that there is another big change in the palace?"

Xu Shangshu clapped his hands vigorously again: "Feng Wang will not give up halfway, but postpone it."

Postpone?Is there any major event that can delay Prince Feng?

Xu Shangshu's voice trembled a little: "Within three days, our Ministry of Rites will draw up all the regulations for the canonization of the crown prince and princess concubine. The emperor's sacred decision is to confer the fourth highness as the crown prince."

The entire ceremony hall was silent.

After a while, it suddenly became lively, and the entire area where the six value houses were located was boiling like a new year.

Many people's eyes fell on Jia Lian vaguely, but Jia Lian was completely stupefied.

The house is very hopeful to be demolished, which is completely different from the feeling that there is an astronomical sum in the account of the real demolition of the house.

Jia Lian was as confused as Fan Jinzhongju at this time.

It was Zhang Fenghai who gave him a pinch, and then said in a low voice: "Your servants haven't left yet, tell them to go back and send a letter to your old lady!"

Jia Lian just woke up like a dream, and walked out quickly, even tripping a little on the threshold.

During the next day's reign, Emperor Xuanhe threw down a lot of thunder with a calm face.

One: Empress Yang retreated to Shangjing Palace, and added the title of "Yuanhui Immortal Master", and the treasure book and edict of her empress were all kept in Fengyi Palace.

Second: The fourth prince, Xin Hongcheng, was appointed as the crown prince, and his main concubine, Lin, was named the crown princess. The Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs prepared for the canonization ceremony as soon as possible.

Third: The Queen's Seal is handed over to the Crown Princess Lin, who will take care of the affairs of the Six Palaces, and all undecided issues will be handed over to the Empress Dowager.

Although the courtiers had their own way to hear the news, hearing the emperor's Jinkou with their own ears was another shock.

The important affairs of the country are the worship and the Rong, and the stability of the crown prince means the stability of the people.This was one of the most important events in Emperor Xuanhe's reign, so everyone ignored the emperor's last imperial decree.

The general idea is: He Yushi dared to speak out, and I am very pleased. Midnight Menghui deeply felt his loyalty, and specially appointed him as the magistrate of Yansui County. I hope he will continue to carry forward his style, defy power, plead for the people, and serve the country.

Yansui, located in northern Xinjiang, has a tough folk customs, and the northern barbarians often enter the city to burn, kill and loot.

The county magistrate here is famous for its high rate of scrapping, and it often shares a magistrate with the other five counties in northern Xinjiang, so as to avoid headaches for the imperial court and not being able to send people.

He Yushi received the imperial edict, and the two sides fought on the spot, his face pale.

Another Hu Yushi almost fainted from fright. Fortunately, He Yushi's impassioned quotations from the scriptures impressed Emperor Xuanhe so much that he forgot that there was another Hu Yushi on the paper, so he escaped by chance. day of birth.

The eldest prince is probably the person who pays most attention to this imperial decree except for He Yushi himself.

After all, it is not surprising to him that the fourth brother is going to be the prince.

Now he only focuses on He Yushi: whether this person is trying to gain fame for himself, or someone is instigating him behind his back, while criticizing the queen, he also used the noble concubine Zhou as a raft, praising the noble concubine, saying that the noble concubine should take the phoenix seal instead, Haoxuan didn't kill his own mother.

Now it's a turn of events, He Yushi, no, He County Magistrate is about to take office in northern Xinjiang.

It was the site of Zhou Ling's biological father, and he would definitely write to ask his father-in-law to "take care" of the loyal He Yushi.

Xin Hongcheng still did not go to court today, this is the last day of leave he asked for.

Seeing him in front of her, Empress Yang asked the imperial doctor and personally served soup and medicine, but she just refused to talk to her.Can't help laughing: "Is Cheng'er angry with the queen mother?"

Xin Hongcheng held back for a long time and finally couldn't help it: "Doesn't the mother believe that the son can solve this matter? Why do you need to help me become the crown prince at the price of retreating to Shangjing Palace?"

Daiyu glanced at him and said, "What are you talking about? If you don't understand, think about it yourself."

Seeing the two of them like this, Empress Yang felt at ease.

"Cheng'er, I'm not helping you, even if this matter drags you down, I will do it. I really deserve to be this empress, and this sentence of my palace has already been said to be boring." Empress Yang thought of many things. Person: "I used to fight. Seeing imperial concubines domineering, Concubine Ming gritted her teeth with hatred and wanted to teach them a lesson. But ten years have passed, and everyone has gone their own way and learned their own lessons. "

"Enough, anyway, I've really had enough. In Shangjing Palace, once the palace gate is closed, I don't have to worry about whether tomorrow's palace affairs will go wrong, whether other people will laugh at me, or whether the emperor will be indifferent to me. Don't worry about it any more."

--

Xin Hong was summoned to go to Mingzheng Palace, Daiyu came out to see her off, and the two walked side by side, Daiyu said angrily: "The queen mother is still ill, so you should ask questions in a gentle manner, why are you asking such vehement questions?"

Xin Hongcheng was also aggrieved: "I was in a hurry. I know father's temper better than you. He wanted to protect the empress this time, but the birth mother didn't appreciate it. She went to the dictionary and beat father severely. face——it’s easy to move out of Fengyi Palace, but according to Father’s temperament, it will be difficult for this birth mother to re-enter Fengyi Palace.”

Daiyu said softly: "The queen mother never thought of coming back."

Xin Hongcheng's heart tightened, and he stopped and said to Daiyu: "I hope that we will know everything and never be separated." Otherwise, the husband and wife of the whole life will be like Emperor Xuanhe and Empress Yang, locked behind closed doors and unwilling to see each other again , it is all wrong.

Daiyu stretched out her hand to straighten out the sash tied around his waist, and raised her head with a smile: "Okay."

--

The Rongguo Mansion was full of joy and enthusiasm, talking and laughing endlessly.

After Jia Lian's news came back, Jia Min couldn't fall asleep all night. Sure enough, he heard that the emperor had opened the mouth of gold in the court, so he believed it.

Mrs. Xing and Sister Feng both came to congratulate her in bright red clothes, and Jia Min's eyes were blurred.

Fortunately, Jia Min didn't lose his mind with joy, and stopped Mrs. Xing's big action of setting off a whip and holding a banquet. She only said that the aftermath of Queen Yang's incident had not passed, and now she was going to retreat to Shangjing Palace.

After all, she is the aunt of His Highness the Fourth Highness, what does the Rongguo Mansion look like when they throw a feast with joy and joy.

After congratulating her, Sister Feng got down to business and took out a greeting card: "Old Ancestor, this is a greeting card from the Marquis of Changyuan."

Jia Min's heart shuddered at the Zhong family in the Marquis of Changyuan.

For Xin Hongcheng's big wedding, Marquis Changyuan and his son had already signed up for the papers, and asked to return to the capital to attend the wedding banquet.It's a pity that Xin Hongcheng was not very close to this grandfather and uncle, and the wedding day passed after drinking two glasses of wine according to the rules.

Lord Zhong Hou only needs to find another opportunity to talk to his grandson about himself, and is ready to add bricks and tiles to Xin Hongcheng's journey to become a prince, and the key point is to add bricks and tiles with the surname Zhong.

Unexpectedly, great changes would take place in the palace: the queen was poisoned, the two concubines were abolished, the third prince was abolished, the queen abdicated, and Xin Hongcheng was established as the prince.

A series of shocking changes took place so quickly that Changyuanhou's Mansion, which is not even in the capital now, was in a daze.

By the time he realized it, Xin Hongcheng was already a surefire prince, and he was just waiting for the canonization ceremony.

Lord Zhonghou and Shizi looked at each other in blank dismay: Then what else can they do?
