Chapter 188 Abolish the palace rules and make the empress a concubine

When the emperor passed away, according to the customs of the Ziling Kingdom, Fenghuang's body must be placed in the palace for more than seven days. After the Ministry of Internal Affairs selects the maids, eunuchs, and concubines who will be buried with him, they will go to the mausoleum for burial under the escort of the Imperial Forest Army. As the emperor of the most powerful country in the Canglan Continent, whether it is funeral objects or court ladies and eunuchs, the number is absolutely unimaginable for ordinary people, especially concubines. When the emperor entered the mausoleum, besides Feng Xing Tian Feng Yu's two brothers, there were several princesses under Feng Huang's knees. The cruel palace rules may not be a problem in normal times, but at this time, the entire palace is full of complaints, and the sound of crying almost breaks through the roof tiles of each palace.

"His Royal Highness, please save us..."

"Your Highness, save us!"

"Your Highness..."

In the Hall of Sacred Rites, hundreds of concubines knelt on the main hall with tears streaming down their faces. Among them, some of them were only in their [-]th year, they hadn't fully grown up yet, and they had never even seen the Emperor Feng, but now they had to do something for them. They are unwilling to be buried with the Emperor Feng. Now the only ones left are the Queen Mother who sits on top and His Royal Highness the King of War who is about to enthroned as the emperor. The reason for coming in droves.

Looking at the concubines kneeling all over the floor, Feng Xingtian frowned unrecognizably. He was not as merciful as outsiders sang, and he didn't have the bodhisattva heart to save the world, but... it's okay to say that he is dissatisfied with his father Regardless of being disrespectful to his ancestors, at this moment, he really doesn't agree with this cruel method of burial. People die when they die. How can they deprive so many young lives because of his noble status?

"Grandma, what do you think?"

Looking at them calmly, Feng Xingtian turned his head to ask the queen mother's opinion respectfully. Even if he wants to abolish this inhuman palace rule, he must first obtain the support of the queen mother, otherwise he may not be able to convince the public. After all, he is not a real The emperor, it is inevitable that he is a bit tied up when doing things.

"The rules set by the ancestors can be changed by a woman from the Ai family at will? Xing Tian, ​​you will be the new emperor. You can decide this matter. However, even if you really want to abolish the rules set by the ancestors, you will not You must first burn incense to Gaozu, and inform the world, and you must not do it willfully."

The Queen Mother is also a shrewd person, she saw through Feng Xingtian's thoughts at a glance, and did not stop him forcefully, she also wanted to see if Feng Xingtian was a real wise king.

"Grandma Huang's words are very true, and Xing Tian will consider what to do."

Respectfully bowing to her again, Feng Xingtian sat upright, his bewitching gold and silver pupils suddenly and sharply looked at the concubines who were kneeling below with expectant faces, and his sexy cherry red lips squirmed slightly.

"Come here, draw up the decree, the ancestors of the Ziling Kingdom passed down, the emperor died, the harem had no children and only the concubines had to be buried in the mausoleum, so as to uphold the majesty of the emperor and demonstrate the dignity of the royal family, but this king is not filial and cannot watch such a cruel thing. Therefore, as the new emperor who is about to enthroned, I decreed to abolish this inhuman palace rule. However, the dignity of my royal emperor cannot be perfunctory, so this king declares that all beauties in the harem who have not been honored by the previous emperor All the women in the family were repatriated to their original places after the funeral of the late emperor, and the royal family would not interfere in any marriages thereafter. The concubines who were lucky enough to pass by the late emperor but had no children had to follow the ancestral rules and enter the mausoleum to be buried with them. In addition, the palace maids and eunuchs needed for the funeral They will all be replaced by paper figurines, real people are not required, above, the king of tomorrow will bring all the members of the royal family, civil and military officials will burn incense and tell the ancestors of the Feng family to be righteous and filial!"

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness..."

"War King Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose!"

Feng Xingtian's voice was deep and full of magnetism, like the sounds of heaven, the words he spoke were sonorous and forceful, and hundreds of concubines thanked them with tears. In fact, the main reason why Feng Xingtian still kept some rules was because Fenghuang didn't really have any luck at all. After a few women, there must be some victims, but definitely not more than ten people. Although Fenghuang is more annoying and cheating, except for those, he can be regarded as a diligent emperor, and he didn't put too much thought on women. , This also brought convenience to Feng Xingtian's decision, and added the last benefit to the harem.

The Empress Dowager looked at her most beloved grandson with a smile. She was the one who helped him to the throne. If she was not sure about anything before this, after this incident, she was truly relieved. Feng Xingtian is kind. But he is not weak, and his natural kingly demeanor is enough to conquer everyone. Coupled with his accumulated popularity among the people, it is believed that under his leadership, Ziling Kingdom will surely move towards a more prosperous and powerful future.

"Report to the Empress Dowager, Empress, His Royal Highness Zhan Wang, Zhongyong Hou Xi Changfeng, and Prince Yuchi of the eldest princess's mansion, please see me."

As soon as the concubines retreated, the little eunuch reported respectfully, the three of them looked at each other, and the queen mother smiled and said: "They are all from my own family, why be so polite, Xuan!"

"The Empress Dowager has a decree to declare the Marquis, and the king of Yuchi County to go to the palace!"

As the little eunuch's shrill voice fell, the tall and handsome figure of Xi Changfeng and Wei Chi Haoran instantly appeared in the sight of the three of them. The two of them were dragons among men no matter in appearance or demeanor, and their strutting posture was even more majestic. If it weren't for them being young, the matchmaker might have knocked down the threshold of the two families, even though it's about the same now.

"Chairman Changfeng (Yuchi Haoran) has seen the Queen Mother, Empress, His Royal Highness Zhan Wang, thousands of years old!"

After all, it was a formal interview, and the two of them didn't dare to be as perfunctory as usual. Their expressions and movements were rigid, and their standards were as elegant as a textbook.

"Hehe... Changfeng Haoran doesn't need to be so polite. There are no outsiders here. The Ai family is old and doesn't like this hypocritical etiquette. Get up."

The queen mother looked at them lovingly and greeted them warmly.

"Thank you Queen Mother."

But Xi Changfeng and Yuchi Haoran had to follow the rules, they were still rigid.

"Give me a seat!"

Shaking her head helplessly, the Empress Dowager didn't bother to tangle with them anymore, she ordered them to sit down, and the two thanked them politely before sitting down straight.

"Chang Feng, Hao Ran, why did you come to Ai Family's Holy Ritual Hall together?"

Where there is the queen mother, it is not Feng Xingtian's turn to speak with the queen, and the two sat silently by the side, watching them quietly with smiles on their lips.

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, Changfeng came here this time to discuss the enthronement ceremony with the King of War, and to visit the empress by the way."

"The same goes for grandchildren."

Xi Changfeng bowed his hands respectfully to the Queen Mother and then slowly said, Yu Chi Haoran hurriedly followed in tacit understanding, there are some things that the Queen Mother and the civil and military officials will not take the initiative to mention before they bring it up.

"That's right, let me just say, why do you suddenly think of the old lady Ai's family?"

The smile on the Empress Dowager's face turned like turning over a book, filled with countless melancholy in an instant, knowing that she was deliberately making trouble for them, Xi Changfeng and Yuchi Haoran still denied in unison: "No, I don't mean that. Please forgive me, Empress Dowager."

"Ha ha…"

Seeing this, the Empress Dowager couldn't help but burst out laughing, everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and the corners of their lips parted one after another. It seemed that the Empress Dowager liked to play tricks on them juniors more and more.

"Speaking of ascending the throne, Xing Tian, ​​Grandma Huang feels that there is something that should be done at the same time."

Suddenly, the Empress Dowager's laughter stopped abruptly, her expression was never before solemn and serious, the four of them vaguely guessed what she was going to say, they all couldn't help holding their breath, their hearts became anxious one after another, it wouldn't be what they thought Is that so?

"I also ask Grandma Huang to express it!"

Feng Xingtian was still calm, with the ever-changing smile on his unparalleled handsome face, his attitude was neither humble nor uttered, just right, as if he hadn't guessed what the queen mother said, but with his shrewdness, , how could it be impossible to guess?

The Empress Dowager's eyes focused on his cheeks with interest, and she couldn't help but feel a little more satisfied with him. He was calm and shrewd, calm and calm, and really possessed all the qualifications of an emperor.

"Xing Tian, ​​you are not young anymore. As an emperor, you are very qualified in every aspect. The only thing is that you have no heirs. In the past, you were not the prince who inherited the throne, and the Ai family could still keep silent. But now you are about to ascend the throne as the emperor, the Ai family hopes that you will be able to register as a queen on the day of ascending the throne, seal the concubines of the six palaces, spread branches and leaves for the royal family as soon as possible, and give birth to a suitable heir."

What they were worried about was that it finally happened. No one is a fool. It is well known that Feng Xingtian already has a concubine, but the Queen Mother proposed the matter of becoming a concubine at this time. It is obvious that there is no real Jiang Xie Wuya at all. She regarded Feng Xingtian as the concubine of Feng Xingtian, let alone her royal daughter-in-law, but she did not do anything wrong. According to the customs of Ziling Kingdom, if Feng Xingtian did not get married before Feng Huang's funeral, then he would have to wait for three years of filial piety To choose a concubine, no matter whether it is the empress dowager, civil and military officials, or the people of the world, they can't wait that long. As the emperor, Feng Xingtian must leave an heir as soon as possible.

"Queen, I think..."

"Does the queen want to object?"

As soon as the queen opened her mouth, the queen mother and her sharp eyes flew over, instantly causing her next words to disappear deep in her throat, and after throwing Feng Xingtian a helpless look, she lowered her head and said, "No, my daughter-in-law doesn't dare. "

Even the queen was resisted and came back, which shows that the queen mother is determined in this matter. Xi Changfeng and Wei Chihaoran both anxiously looked at Feng Xingtian who had never said a word and smiled. Damn, this is the time. How can he still laugh?Could it be that he really intends to name a queen?What about Wuya?They would never allow him to hurt Wu Ya in the slightest.
