Jia Min and Daiyu were stunned when they heard the news, the emperor was not in good health, they knew about it, and they all started to make preparations in secret, but why did the emperor die with him?

It was Qingshuang, the dark guard next to Tu Chong, who spread the news. The dark guards around him were all named after swords, and they only changed people without changing their names.

If it wasn't for Liu Fulu's testimony, Daiyu would have been locked up almost.

"After the death of the Supreme Emperor, the Emperor mourned too much." Daiyu did not believe this explanation, but the current situation is more important than finding out how the Emperor passed away.

"When the Supreme Emperor was dying, the Emperor sent brocade guards to surround the palace and forbid entry and exit. He also announced that the clan and courtiers went to the palace to visit the Supreme Emperor. Not long after these people entered the palace, the emperor was overwhelmed with grief and passed away. Came to Miyunwei, and discussed the funeral ceremony with the courtiers and clan, and also respected the king's sudden death."

There are many things hidden here, but Tu Chong is not around, and without his order, the hidden guard dare not speak casually.Only then did Daiyu realize that even if she knew about some things Jia Min said, she would have no choice but to do nothing.

"How is the prince?"

"The prince is very sad, and he is still encouraging and supporting him, thanks to the help of his courtiers."

The courtiers have different thoughts, but as far as the cabinet is concerned, the chief assistant is the emperor's confidant, and the commander of the Jinyiwei was even promoted by the emperor, so they can obey so quickly.Daiyu thought of Miyunwei who suddenly appeared, and remained silent.

"The prince told the princess not to worry, and to take care of herself."

"Does the emperor have a will? Where is the funeral?"

"The emperor has not yet left a will, but the crown prince is the crown prince appointed by the emperor himself. The crown prince and the courtiers intend to transport the Taishanghuang and the emperor's Zigong back to the Zhai Palace for the funeral."

Liu Fulu said beside him: "My lady, I'm afraid the news will reach the palace soon, you have to be prepared."

"I see." Daiyu asked, thinking about the next thing in her heart.

The emperor's funeral ceremony was very cumbersome, and Jia Min was very worried about Daiyu's body. When Qingshuang went down, she said to Daiyu, "Don't think so much. The prince wants to arrange everything in advance. Just worry about it." Keep your own body at ease, and I will ask Li Shouhe to feel your pulse. "

In this life, Daiyu was not weak in the womb, she looked slender and graceful, but her body was apparently healthy, just in case, Li Shouhe still prescribed a prescription.

Seeing that Jia Min was still worried, Daiyu comforted her: "Didn't Li Yuan judge say it? It's okay. If I am rude at the funeral, I will not only criticize me, but also the Yu Palace. children will also be implicated.”

Daiyu didn't expect that the guards outside the Kunning Palace would not retreat until the Taishang Emperor and the Emperor's Zi Palace were transported to the Zhai Palace. After Tu Chong and others returned to the palace, the guards outside the Kunning Palace would retreat. so much.

Calculated, the two haven't seen each other for a long time, but perhaps because too many things happened in the middle, Daiyu felt a little strange to such a deep and introverted Tu Chong with a solemn expression, so Tu Chong took a step forward, In front of the palace maid and eunuch, she hugged Daiyu in her arms.

Tu Chong is a tough and resolute person by nature, but Daiyu only felt a little fragility in Tu Chong who was holding her, "Xixi, my grandfather and father are gone." It rang in my ears.

Daiyu's heart was sour, tears welled up in her eyelashes, even though Tu Chong had a rough childhood and weak family ties, she still had feelings of admiration for the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor.

Daiyu raised her hand and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him, sometimes her words would be very pale.

Tu Chong calmed down, put his hands on Daiyu's belly, and said cautiously, "Do we have a child now?" '

"Yeah." Daiyu put her hand on the back of Tu Chong's, "The child who is connected with us by blood."

Tu Chong's eyes turned red, and he murmured, "Thank you, Xixi."

The funeral ceremony between the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor began in an orderly manner. During the period, the Empress saw Daiyu and knew that Daiyu was pregnant, so she didn't say much, but gave Daiyu an ordinary reward.

On the contrary, Concubine Wu Gui gave a very thoughtful gift, and there were some baby clothes. Daiyu was a little surprised. Concubine Wu Guifei and Daiyu explained: "The prince and concubine love each other. Having a child is only a matter of time, and I will prepare it in advance."

Concubine Wu Guifei continued: "It's made of Songjiang Sansuo cloth. It was deliberately rubbed several times and exposed to the sun for a few days."

She sighed, her expression a little depressed: "This cloth is given by the emperor." The emperor has a lot of favors, and Concubine Wu Gui has long been out of favor, but the emperor still respects her, even though Concubine Wu Gui is annoyed because of the second prince's marriage, But when people leave, those bad things go with them, and what remains is good.

Concubine Wu Guifei became sad and left in a hurry without sitting down with Daiyu.

In Beijing, civil and military officers should wear mourning clothes with black yarn and a black rhino horn belt around their waists. They enter the palace from the Xihua Gate to cry outside the Sishan Gate.Headed by the chief minister of the cabinet, Feng Bi, the emperor was kind to him, seeing that his body was thin and his hair was graying.After crying for the funeral, Feng Bi had to discuss with the Ministry of Rites about the posthumous and temple names of the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor.

Although the emperor has not been on the throne for too long, and he has not made too many achievements, but one is Tu Chong as the son of man, and the other is Feng Bi is his confidant, so the posthumous titles negotiated are all posthumous titles.

Even during the funeral, there are still many things that need to be judged in vain. He has been in power for a long time, and it is not difficult to get started, but Daiyu watched him get thinner day by day, so she can tell Liu Fulu to watch him Tu Chong is used for three meals a day on time.

In order not to disturb Daiyu's rest, Tu Chong always rested in Xuqin Palace, but he took time every day to see how Daiyu was doing, and asked about Daiyu's daily necessities. Fortunately, Daiyu was always safe.

The queen leads the harem concubines, concubines and princesses to cry.Concubine Yu was getting old, she rested in the East Palace after the first day of crying, but she was going back to the palace on the second day, and Daiyu stayed here bitterly.

Princess Yu said, "You had a good relationship with your grandfather and the Supreme Emperor. Now that the Supreme Emperor has passed away, your grandfather is feeling bad, so I can help you out." 'Because Tu Chong has not yet ascended the throne, Princess Yu still uses the old title.

Prince Yu and the Supreme Emperor are brothers of the same father and mother. Even in his later years, the Supreme Emperor never doubted Prince Yu, and all his achievements were made with the support of the Supreme Emperor.Therefore, Prince Yu was extremely sad, and Princess Yu was very worried that Prince Yu would be ruined.

Afterwards, it will be the day of the funeral. The mausoleum of the Supreme Emperor has already been built, and the mausoleum of the emperor is still under construction. Therefore, we will stop at Lingjing Mountain first, and move it there when it is repaired in the future.

Both the queen and Daiyu will go to the funeral together, and they have to cry day and night on the way.Sacrificial offerings will be held along the way for the kings and below, officials, military and civilian seniors, and wives of the fourth rank and above.The emperor's mausoleum is located in Xiaoci County, and it takes three days to travel there.

On the night after the mausoleum was sealed, he rested in Xiaoci County, and returned to the capital the next day. The rest of the things after that were handled by the Ministry of Rites and the Supervisor of Rituals. They met Tu Chong, and Daiyu was about to come down soon.

Daiyu still lives in the East Palace.

Then, some courtiers wrote to persuade them to enter the East Palace to ascend to the throne.

Feng Bi and Cheng Wei's notebooks were delivered to Tu Chong by the Li Supervisor. Feng Bi fell ill at home after returning from Xiaoci County. Unexpectedly, he remembered this matter when he was seriously ill.

When the new emperor succeeds to the throne, all the officials in the court will naturally express their loyalty and submission to the new emperor.Feng Bi was the chief assistant, so naturally he took the lead in writing the book, but he never brought anyone else along, but Cheng Wei, Cheng Wei is the minister of the Ministry of Rites, as he said.

Tu Chong knew in his heart that Feng Bi was probably going to pave the way for Cheng Wei to join the cabinet.The matter of Cheng Wei's entry into the cabinet was almost settled earlier, but it was delayed due to other reasons. Now that the previous emperor passed away and the new emperor succeeded, Feng Bi had to make a new plan.

Tu Chong naturally refused, and then all the officials submitted a memorial again, but they still refused. Later, all the civil and military officials persuaded him to enter, and after three persuasions, they "reluctantly" obeyed.

Daiyu said to Jia Min privately: "Three persuasion and acceptance is really..."

"Speak carefully, this is the etiquette for persuasion set by the emperor." Jia Min interrupted her, and asked again: "The new monarch will have a certain name, after that, he will be conferred with the empress dowager and empress, and he will have to move to the palace, repair the palace, and return to the palace." There are many things to be busy, I am really worried about your health."

"I don't need to worry about the next thing, and this child is healthy and safe all the time." Daiyu smiled softly.

"Is the Kunning Palace still safe?"

"I fell ill after I came back, and I didn't see anyone." Daiyu said, and the queen has not moved much until now.

"Where's Xue Baochai?" Jia Min asked again, Aunt Xue would go to Mrs. Xing and Wang Xifeng's house whenever she had time, after all, she was her aunt, and Wang Xifeng couldn't bear it, so she revealed it to Jia Min.Jia Min thought that Xue Baochai hadn't done anything, so letting her out of the palace was considered a blessing.

"Up until now, I have been honestly staying in the Eastern Palace, rarely coming out, and the Kunning Palace has not asked her to go back." Daiyu replied, "Why did mother mention her?"

"It's not that Feng girl said a few words."

"If she was an ordinary palace member, I would have decided to let her go, but after all, she is from Kunning Palace, so at least I have to ask His Highness." Daiyu and Jia Min explained.

"Hey, of course I'm following your orders. You can just look at the arrangement and don't need to worry too much." Jia Min said, she naturally didn't want Daiyu to waste her energy on it.

But Xu Shi Daiyu became a mother, and when she thought of Aunt Xue's situation, she felt a little soft-hearted, and she still remembered Xue Baochai's matter in her heart.

In the evening, Tu Chong came to Daiyu's place, still holding the brochure that the courtiers persuaded him to come in, "I know you're curious, so I'll take a look with you."

Daiyu just mentioned it casually, but unexpectedly Tu Chong actually brought it over. Daiyu took it over and read, "Since the past, the Holy Emperor Ming Wang has a heavenly position, and it must be passed on to the eldest son..."

Daiyu closed the folder and said with a smile: "Speaking of it, it's just that one is the eldest son, the other is the intention of inheriting the sky, and the third is to boast of your virtue. I don't understand the other things. This is a very simple word. Has strength."

Tu Chong said, "This is Zhang Tingzhen's character."

"The Zhang family is the natal family of my first eldest aunt." Daiyu is no stranger.

"I'm planning to let him join the cabinet." Tu Chong had only spoken halfway, and Dai Yu hurriedly covered his mouth and said, "Stop talking, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics."

Tu Chong took her hand off with a funny face, "There's more between you and me."

"I don't like to hear this." Daiyu said angrily.

Seeing this, Tu Chong didn't say any more.

Daiyu then remembered Xue Baochai that Jia Min had mentioned, and asked Tu Chong a question.Tu Chong said: "Back then I wanted to send her out of the palace, but the queen wanted her back. If you want her to leave the palace, I'll tell the queen."

Daiyu nodded, and when she heard Tu Chong's address, she shook the booklet in her hand and said, "It's time to change your tune, you will be the emperor in the future, and the queen mother will be the empress dowager."

Tu Chong smiled lightly: "Nothing else is important, the important thing is that you are my queen."

Tu Chong thought it was a trivial matter and went to Kunning Palace, but the empress, who is now the empress dowager, was very tough. Not only did she not allow it, but she also wanted Xue Baochai to come back to her side.

The empress dowager felt resentful in her heart, she was only one step too late, and was preempted by Tu Chong. First, the Kunning Palace was besieged, then her own nails in the palace were pulled out one by one, and then the rest of the people in her palace except those who were close to her. Substituted, no freedom of movement.These are all done by Tu Chong, the Queen Mother wished that Tu Chong would strangle him as soon as he was born.

She was furious, but Tu Chong didn't feel anything else. The queen mother couldn't afford to lose even though she lost. She still hasn't seen the situation clearly.It's just her attitude that made Tu Chong feel suspicious. The queen mother didn't want to vent her anger on Xue Baochai, but she was a little afraid that Xue Baochai would fall into his hands.

Tu Chong said expressionlessly: "The Empress and Mrs. Xue had a very happy conversation. I asked her to accompany the Empress in the East Palace. The Empress Mother has always been kind and loving. Now that the Empress is pregnant and needs someone to accompany her, will the Empress Mother not allow it? If the Empress Mother feels that there are few people around I'm dead, my servant will come with some court ladies and eunuchs."

"The Ai family is used to her serving."

"That's because the people around the queen mother are not good. It can be seen that they are not good at serving, so the queen mother can't do without Xue. Why don't you buy a better batch?" Tu Chong said lightly.

"You! How dare you threaten..." The queen mother was furious.

Tu Chong got up and said: "I don't dare, my minister is still busy with the government, so don't disturb the queen's rest, the mother should take care of herself, after all, she will be canonized as the queen mother in a few days. Attend the canonization ceremony."

As soon as Tu Chong left the Kunning Palace, he told Liu Fulu, "Go and ask Xue Baochai how she is so capable that the Queen Mother would not let her go."

Liu Fulu left in a hurry, Tu Chong then walked towards the East Palace, calmed down the chill on his body, and then stepped into Daiyu's bedroom.

People from Shangfu and the House of Internal Affairs were asking Daiyu to try on the Queen's clothes, when they heard Tu Chong came, Daiyu hurriedly said: "Wait, come in, wait until I change the clothes."

Tu Chong really stopped and waited outside.

Still seeing the situation between Tu Chong and Daiyu, Shangfu felt even more respectful towards Daiyu in his heart.

After Daiyu changed her clothes, she came out of the inner room and explained to Tu Chong: "I want to leave you a surprise. I will watch it on the big day in the future. It won't be interesting to watch it now."

Maybe it was because Jia Min often came to see her in the East Palace, maybe Tu Chong was obedient to her, maybe it was because the two had a child, Daiyu seemed more delicate than before, as if an unmarried girl occasionally had a bit of coquettishness, The attitude with Tu Chong is also more intimate.

Tu Chong likes Daiyu like this very much, Daiyu who doesn't hide her emotions in front of him.

"Where did you come back from mother?" After the two sat down on the big pit near the window, Daiyu poured a cup of tea for Tu Chong and asked, "Warm your hands first." .

Tu Chong took advantage of the situation and touched her hand, seeing that her hands were warm, he took the stove and told Daiyu about the Empress Dowager.

"It's no wonder she's so quiet, she's afraid of leaving the East Palace and returning to the Kunning Palace," Daiyu said.

"I'll know why later." At this moment, Liu Fulu was already asking Xue Baochai.

When Xue Baochai stayed in the East Palace, she felt that she had escaped a catastrophe. After that, she was looking forward to praying and feeling uneasy. Staying in the East Palace, she was very afraid, afraid that she would return to Kunning Palace.

She used to think about connecting with the East Palace every day, but the Empress Dowager looked closely at it. Perhaps God had pity on her that day, but the Empress Dowager actually sent her here, and later put her under house arrest in the East Palace. She was very happy.

What is even more gratifying now is that Tu Chong sent Liu Fulu to question her.

Xue Baochai said: "There is a reason, but this matter is of great importance, I can only report to the emperor in person." Then he gritted his teeth and said nothing.

Liu Fulu had no choice but to report back to Tu Chong. Tu Chong put the teacup in his hand on the table casually and said, "If you don't want to say it, send her back."

Liu Fulu looked at Daiyu with some questions, Daiyu thought about it and said, "Tell her, the emperor will see her with me, if she comes, bring her, if not, send her back to Kunning Palace."

Liu Fulu looked at Tu Chong again, saw Tu Chong nodded slightly, and then went out, this time Xue Baochai came.
