    There have always been regulations on the time for the cessation of souls in Qianqing Palace, which cannot exceed thirty days.  800¡¤ÖÐÎÄ¡¤Íø¡¤First¡¤Fa Since the relationship between Emperor Daxing and the successor emperor was not father and son, the coffin was kept for eighteen days, so the Qintian Prison planned a time to move the coffin to the funeral palace.  The Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Guards Office prepared the ceremonial guard and the elephant chariot one day in advance. At dawn the next day, Xiao Zhi came out of the Jingyun Gate, and later changed to the big pole with 128 people.  This kind of big bugs are not sent to the Jingling Palace in one go by more than a hundred people. Someone has to replace them along the way. They are divided into sixty classes, and each class needs four additional people. That is, one hundred and thirty-two people per class, a total of seven thousand  Nine hundred and twenty people.  Such a large team of pole pullers are all hired from the prefectures and counties around the capital. They are trained ten days in advance. They must take the same steps and use the same energy without any deviation.  As long as two people make mistakes and the Zi Palace is shaken, it will be regarded as disrespectful, and everyone from the Minister of Military and Aircraft to the Takao himself will be punished or even beheaded.

    This kind of errand is done carefully. Although the snow has stopped, the ice on the roadside is so thick that the pole pullers have hemp ropes tied to the soles of their shoes. They have to be extremely careful every step they take as they go up the mountain.  .  Songyin sniffed and moved back and forth, the northwest wind blowing on her face hurting.  Looking ahead, the queue is winding with no end in sight.  That's what it's like to be an errand in the palace. You know that Rong Zhen is not far away, but there are so many people that you can't find him.

    The left side of the Shinto is full of civil and military officials, all the way from Donghua Gate to Jingshan.  The death knell rang through the sky, and Da Gege couldn't walk anymore. She sobbed softly and pulled the corner of her clothes, "Xiao Tong, I'm tired."

    It is the right thing for a filial son and his daughter to go to the funeral, but it is not so rigid. Due to the princess's young age, she can be flexible.  Songyin leaned forward and looked at her, with two lines of tears hanging on his face, as if they were about to freeze.  She raised her voice and called for a eunuch, put Da Ge Ge on his back, and asked him to carry her.

    The mourning hall in the Guande Hall at the other end has been prepared. The coffin of the Daxing Emperor will be kept for several months or even years. When the mausoleum is completed, it can be buried smoothly after a set of complicated ceremonies.

    Fortunately, Emperor Daxing¡¯s blessing allowed her to complete her errand smoothly.  Looking back at the mourning hall, the thick and cumbersome whiteness was hidden by layers of stacked curtains and embroidered curtains. Hundreds of palace people had been assigned to pay tribute in separate shifts. The Forbidden City had been completely vacated and belonged to someone else.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of a national mourning is basically over, the next step is the "handover" of the old and new courts.  The Ministry of Internal Affairs only deals with the affairs of the inner court, and the concubines have to make arrangements.  Let 'Yu' and Hui Zhu'er be concubines, and concubine Hui's child is a princess. There are no taboos. The princess can live with her mother. When she is old, she can be married and given a mansion. The trouble is Guo Guiren.  She had a low status, and she gave birth to the old son of the Daxing Emperor. Her elder brother was young and was just waiting for him to be fed, and he could not open an office or build a government, so it was very difficult to deal with it.

    Shuming and Songyin couldn't arrange it for half a day, so they had to go to Qianqing Palace to ask the emperor what he wanted.  The master was generous and gave Guo Guiren the title of concubine, and allocated the Xuanshou Hall to her and her elder brother to live there. When the elder brother reaches the age of fourteen and leaves the palace, the concubine can take care of him.

    The handling was pretty good, but Croissant Yin was a little worried, "Will the Emperor be unfavorable to my little brother? Such a weak child cannot withstand his 'kneading'."

    Shu Ming raised the spine of the book and rubbed his forehead, "Now that the dust has settled, there is no need to argue with the child. My brother is still young and cannot see the 'nature' of his heart. When he gets older, it will all depend on the tolerance of Lord Long Live."

    Sometimes I have to lament the turn of fate. Back then, the late emperor robbed Prince Yu of his wife, and now Prince Yu has robbed his younger brother¡¯s wife. What will happen in the future?  Whether history will repeat itself, I'm afraid even today I have concerns.  But there is no rush for this, there is still some time for things to change. Master Guo and Master Hui live in the Shou'an Palace together, so they can take care of each other.  The person who is worrying right now is Jean. When she talked to Ama, Ama was so angry that her beard curled up, "I think she has lost her mind. We in the Tong family don't have such a shameless person like her! A good person."  , just for the sake of oneself./What the hell is that Lu Run, the master of 'butt-making'! What does she want from him?"

    Songyin said: "You also know that Lu Runshui has risen, and the emperor has euphemistically called him the old minister, but for the sake of publicity, what about it? Now he is the eunuch of the Sixth Palace, and the entire inner court is in his hands. San'er wants to  Relying on others is probably a last resort."

    Shu Ming let out a loud sigh, "Damn it! I and my sister are both in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Do you need her to eat or drink? Do you want her to sell her meat and seek refuge with the eunuch? You, go to the palace tomorrow and give me a hard time."  Scold her severely. If she doesn't repent, I will skin her!" Then he shouted outside, "Peng Lai! Peng Lai!"

    The person in charge outside snorted, "Here's my instructions."

    "Weigh out two taels in the cabinet!"

    Songyin was startled, "What do you want to do?"

    "Give that shameless thing," Shu Ming said through gritted teeth, "make her some tea!"

    &nbsp"My father wants to poison his daughter to death because he has ruined his reputation. This is a big family."

    Songyin hurriedly said: "Don't get angry, she is so pitiful now, and you still 'force' her, you really don't leave her a way to survive."

    "She entered the palace of her own volition, why did she enter the palace? She didn't like the appearance of the Shang family's uncle! The sharp-mouthed monkey has cheeks like a wasp, these were her exact words. The first emperor was beautiful, so he volunteered, who  Knowing that the bamboo basket is in vain, how can you blame others? Tell her, blame her fate, blame her eyes, only looking at beauty and not the benefits. This time it is benefits, but that is useless, okay  The concubine is working as a waiter, she is shameless and I want to be shameless!" Shu Ming threw the paper bag into her hand, "Take it and give it to her. If you don't give it to her, I will scold you."

    Songyin had no choice but to tuck it into her sleeves and said that she knew it, then belatedly said: "Sending poison to the palace, do you want to kill me, Ama?"

    Shu Ming was furious and scolded: "You were asked to send her away in the open? Are you a donkey and don't know how to turn around? Just protect her. If someone catches her, she has tricks for people to see!"  While talking, he 'rubbed' his belly, "I'm so angry that my liver hurts."

    Songyin immediately flattered him, "I'll ask someone to go out and buy fried liver. I'll take whatever I need to supplement it."

    Shu Ming groaned angrily and said, "Give me that soupy stuff, and you're still a pig in the water. Are you scolding me?"

    Songyin said blankly: "Where is anyone selling liver? Tell me and I will buy it for you to drink with."

    He muttered a few words to her and turned away.  Songyin took out the paper bag and scattered the contents under the crabapple tree.  When she turned around, she saw her wife standing behind her, crying profusely, "Er, what happened to San Yu? Did something happen in the palace?"

    Songyin didn¡¯t know how to answer her, how could she say this!  She lowered her head and sighed, "Don't worry about it"

    "Can I ignore it? You are all my children, and you are all the 'flesh' that fell from my body My third daughter never had a good life after entering the palace. Now that the man is gone, she is alone  , how will she live her life in the future! She is only sixteen, and she still has decades to go, so she has to explain everything. Why don't you tell me, are you going to kill me?"

    Songyin had no choice but to think about it and said, "Let 'Yu' seem to have someone who knows the difference between hot and cold."

    The wife stopped crying and said in surprise: "Isn't this in the palace? How"

    Songyin said angrily: "He is a eunuch, and he is in charge of the ceremonial seal."

    The wife yelled, "Eunuch isn't that treating someone like food?" After panicking for a while, she unexpectedly turned around and said, "Eunuchs are just eunuchs, as long as they treat her well. She is suffering enough."  , there is no hope in this life, why don't you want to find some comfort? What did your Ama tell you? What did he say about letting 'Yu' go?"

    Songyin scratched his scalp, "Amma is just a little angry, but nothing else."

    The wife spat at the old fool and followed his trail to scold him.

    When I entered the palace the next day, I wanted to find Rang Yu, but I was always worried. There were some things I couldn't say directly even though I was a brother and sister. I thought about it for a long time in the Yamen, and finally gave up.  .  According to the momentum we saw that day, they were in the heat of the moment, so they would definitely not listen to advice.  The same is true for herself and Rong Sil. If someone stood up now and asked her to think twice, she wouldn't even respond.  As long as you are satisfied with the person you like, it has nothing to do with others.  "Jade" is a stupid person who doesn't know how to take advantage of opportunities. She wants to do what she wants, even if she breaks her head, she still has to achieve her goal. She blocks it and asks for trouble.  Or find Lu Run He is different from before, and I don't know how to communicate with him anymore.  My heart is getting farther and farther away, slowly becoming alienated, like a stranger.

    Rong Shi had no news for a few days. When the late emperor was there, he sent all the guards from Xianghuang Banner to the south of the Third Palace. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, Xianghuang Banner is a pro-army force, and the deployment in the palace has to be adjusted.  She was beyond his reach, but she knew his difficulties.  It is not easy to accommodate a grand master. The original grand master of Baohe Palace is also the emperor's master. Although the new king cannot deal with him too conspicuously, it is only a matter of time. Once the emperor and the courtiers are in the same place, changes will inevitably occur over time.  of.

    She wanted to see him, but she couldn't. She had to hold back for now. On the cusp of this storm, the emperor's eyes were all over the government and the public, and he had control over whoever made rash moves.  She firmly believed that she and Rong Shi would still have a long time to live, and she was not in a hurry for this moment.  As for Rong Shi, he originally planned to set up a trap to kill Prince Yu in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, the sudden death of the late emperor caused chaos all over the country.  Now that the boat is finished, we can only cope with the ever-changing situation by remaining unchanged.  Since ancient times, the inheritance from father to son has been in accordance with God's will. The situation between brother and brother is a hundred times more complicated.  The last time was more than three hundred years ago. People who have not experienced that kind of turmoil cannot imagine it.

    ???????????????????????????? However, this new emperor is very good at making superficial appearances, and taking over the government is not difficult, because he has always been in the military department, and politics is just a joke to him.  But after Emperor Daxing moved to the palace, heThe late emperor and his old ministers all made rewards, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs was responsible for all kinds of rewards. After receiving the edict, Songyin counted the items out of the treasury one by one. Each person's gifts were different. She had to check them properly, and then go to the door to announce the edict.  Yibu is now a blessing.

    This errand made her a little embarrassed, not for anything else but because she wanted to visit the Rong family and meet the young and old of the Rong family.  Ever since my wife said those words outside Donghua Gate last time, she has been feeling ashamed and afraid to see them.  Sometimes people are like this. Even though they have done nothing wrong, they blame themselves for everything because of the blame of others and their own shame.  While she was sitting in the sedan chair, she thought about it, why should she be afraid, because she only loved Rongsil and respected his parents and grandmother.

    The Rong family had already received the first report. When she entered the door, an incense table was set up in the courtyard and high incense was burned.  She stepped in with the emperor's orders and shouted "There is a reward", and all the masters and servants knelt on the ground.  She glanced around and saw the old lady Rong and his wife kneeling in front of her. Not far away, there was a figure of Chu Chu lying on the ground, wearing a jade-colored emerald leaf-patterned robe and a bun on her hair.  The plain silver phoenix tail hairpin seems to show that Rong is a member of the family.

    Songyin felt sad, so what if Rongshi didn't agree, the person who was the mainstay in the family might not be able to get rid of him for a while.  Strange looking old lady and madam?  From their point of view, they were doing the right thing. Who doesn't want to protect themselves?  It's just that it's too cold and cold. It's not what it used to be. I no longer have the caring feeling with the female relatives of the Rong family. It's like we are strangers again.

    You can throw away anything, but you can¡¯t throw away people.  She straightened her spine and recited aloud: "With this edict, in the hope of a happy new year, I would like to reward Rong Yunzao, the Prime Minister of the Cabinet and a bachelor of the Baohe Palace, and lead the Minister of Attendance to the study. I will give you a lot of money."  Twelve taels, the emperor gave me eight pieces of Ning silk, a box of agarwood, a box of milk cakes, and a box of dried fruits. I received the order to express my gratitude."

    ????????????? The old lady Rong and his wife were stunned and said, ¡°Long live, long live, long live, long live.¡±

    Songyin waved his hand and handed the reward box to them, and then they handed it to the servants to leave.  Anyway, she came back. Now that they had met, there was nothing to dodge. She greeted the old lady and the madam generously, "I haven't come to see the old lady for a while. How is the old lady?"

    Old Mrs. Rong said yes, "Second Miss, I'll remember it. This old bone can still withstand a beating." Then she looked at her and said, "Second Miss, why do you think you've lost so much weight?"

    She smiled and said, "As you know, there have been major events recently, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has not been idle for a moment. It is so busy that I can't even take care of food. I always want to come to say hello to the old lady, just because the Emperor Daxing  The funeral palace was moved on the first day of the new year. After the new emperor ascended the throne, he had countless trivial matters to take care of, so he was delayed. I happened to have this opportunity today, and I came to the house to take a look at the announcement. Old lady and madam, please forgive me for not being thorough. "

    Where did the old lady say, "Being an official in a girl's family is different from that of a man. I don't know how much more effort it takes!" Suddenly she realized, "I was just talking and didn't invite the second girl to come in and sit down. It's really rude."

    Nowadays, they are talking about the birth. The old lady has been the emperor because she taboo Liu Ye, but she is afraid that Song Yin will be a meal for a disk sooner or later, and she is more polite to her.  Songyin felt unhappy, and originally planned to leave after saying a few words, but when she saw the cousin Yizhuang diligently came forward to help the old lady, her eyes were still the same as before, light, cautious and indifferent, and her narrow-mindedness became clear.  Not comfortable anymore.

    Because of Rong Shi¡¯s relationship, Song Yin dislikes this cousin.  Yi Zhuang may not like her, but her position is unstable and she doesn't dare to have an attack.

    She looked at her and spoke more softly, calling her not just a girl, but a cousin, "Old lady, there is no one to take care of her. It's great to have you taking care of her."

    Yi Zhuang was stunned for a moment. She had always been cautious and would think twice about whatever she said.  Serving Leng Nuan, it sounds like she is really being treated as a servant girl.  She slightly pulled the corners of her lips and said, "I was taken in by the old lady. We are also our own people. It is my blessing to serve in front of the old lady."

    Songyin nodded, "I'm more dedicated to taking care of my own people, so when Rong Shi told me last time that he wanted you to go out and buy a house to live alone, I didn't think it was appropriate."

    This was a tense atmosphere. Old Mrs. Rong and Mrs. Rong looked at each other in confusion. The women in the house were used to this kind of tactic of choking others with their words.  Since Songyin runs against Yizhuang, it means that she still has not let go of Rongshi.

    Yi Zhuang naturally knew it, but she was driven away by Rong Shi once. Although she stayed, she looked a little uncomfortable.  Hearing what she said, she felt even more aggrieved. She tucked her handkerchief and her eyes were red, "I know my second brother dislikes me. We ladies are having a hard time, so we went to the old lady. The old lady took pity on us, so we stayed here shamelessly. Wait.  Things have improved a bit since then, my brother's job" Suddenly he realized that Yichen's job was recommended by Songyin, and he was speechless.

      Song Yin said, "Speaking of Yichen, he was responsible for the purchase of wine and vinegar for the royal kitchen in the palace during the New Year. The palace is a place without any adulteration, and what is wanted is the old vinegar. As a result, he  The gift is red yeast rice vinegar. Everyone knows that Duliu is different from ordinary rice vinegar, and the price is sky-high or underground He should earn some hard money, but he is too courageous. That is for the emperor.  The preparations for the banquet are almost a crime of beheading. You are staying in the Rong Mansion, so it is better not to cause trouble to the manor. Fortunately, the steward of the kitchen came to me first. If he had gone back to someone else, I am afraid that he would have gone out by now.  It¡¯s a big deal.¡±

    Everyone was shocked, and the old lady was even more stunned, "I didn't know about this!"

    Songyin pursed her lips and smiled and said, "Don't worry, old lady. I've already ordered someone to raise money again and fill up the hole. Nothing was wasted."

    For Rong¡¯s family, everything is easy to discuss as long as it doesn¡¯t affect the family business.  People who are related to each other are always out of favor, but if they cause harm to the whole family, it cannot be tolerated.

    Songyin set a fire and planned to escape unscathed. Although he suffered a little loss, he did not fabricate it. He spoke truthfully and felt very at ease.  She glanced at Yi Zhuang and realized that this was the end of competing with her.  For the sake of the emperor, she refused to suffer even the slightest injustice. For Rong Shi, she would kill others and kill the Buddha.  .
