--

After receiving the letter, Wang Muhan quickly brought the plain clothes he had prepared long ago. The two of them changed their clothes in Baishou Building, and without delay, they left the mansion and got on the carriage to the palace.

There was nothing to say in the carriage. Soon, the bell suddenly rang outside. Wei Ji subconsciously looked outside. Chu Shaoling held Wei Ji's hand: "After the emperor passed away, the temples and palaces would hit the bells 30,000 times. I think it was because he received a letter."

Wei Ji nodded, and the bell rang out. Wei Ji felt a little panicked for no reason. The emperor is dead, is Chu Shaoling finally going to ascend the throne?

It was really hard for the prince Chu Shaoling to do it. Wei Ji had actually been hoping that Chu Shaoling would ascend the throne for a long time. After ascending the throne, there would be no endless frame-ups and conspiracies. But now Wei Ji was relieved to get what he wanted. Chu Shaoling looked at Wei Ji's eyes calmly and suddenly whispered: "Don't worry, what happened before and what will happen in the future. I will only treat you better after ascending the throne."

Wei Ji felt warm in his heart, and he lowered his head and said softly: "I know, but... I think that Your Highness will be the emperor soon, so I can't get back to you."

"What's the point of this? " Chu Shaoling put his hand on the waist of the guard halberd and hugged the man in his arms. "I felt so wronged in the past, but I won't know how I will let you do whatever you want."

Wei Ji shook his head: "I didn't think about anything, I'm satisfied if I can continue to serve in the palace.

When Chu Shaoling heard this, he lowered his head and kissed Wei Ji in the eyebrows. Soon after, the carriage entered Shenwu Gate. Chu Shaoling and Wei Ji got off the carriage and took a sedan chair. The group went directly to Chengqian Palace. As soon as Chu Shaoling entered the palace gate, he first attacked the slaves from the palace. According to what he had told Wang Muhan before, he covered his mouth and dealt with it. Wang Muhan ordered the servants to send them away and then turned back and asked, "Your Highness, what should the imperial doctors who took the pulse of the emperor of the Great Store... do it?"

The palace servant prepared the mourning clothes. Chu Shaoling opened his arms and asked the Wei Ji to put on the mourning clothes for him. He turned his head and looked at the old imperial doctors kneeling outside the porch and said lightly: "That old ginseng soup is what the emperor of the Great Store wants to drink. What does it have to do with the imperial doctors? Don't involve irrelevant people."

Wang Muhan understood and nodded: "Yes."

The imperial doctors finally let go of their hearts when they heard Chu Shaoling's words and went with great gratitude.

Chu Shaoling took the white silk handed to him by Wei Ji and tied it to his forehead, turned around and knelt down. Wei Ji and others also knelt down. Chu Shaoling bowed and then bowed, and stood up and looked at the white candlelight in the bedroom. The emperor should have seen Lipin and Chu Shaoruan at this moment, haha... How interesting it would be for these three people to meet. A sneer appeared on the corner of Chu Shaoling's mouth. It was not enough, and there was still one person left.

Not long after, the Empress Dowager came with Madam Sun. Even though the Empress Dowager was prepared, she could not help but fainted when she saw the body of Emperor Daxing. Chu Shaoling quickly stood up and supported the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager covered her face and choked out and said, "Emperor..."

Chu Shaoling ordered people to pack up the Western Warehouse and support the empress dowager. The empress dowager sat on the chair and cried: "What kind of evil did the Ai family do... First, it was the queen, and now it is the emperor. I actually asked the Ai family to send black hair to the black hair twice, and let the Ai family go with him too..."

"The emperor and grandmother should not speak nonsense..." Chu Shaoling took a veil to wipe the empress dowager's face and advised softly, "The father has been sleeping in sick for half a year, and now he has reached the Pure Land. I think he is liberation."

The Empress Dowager couldn't help feeling sad: "There is only the emperor in the Ai family. He has left. Why are the Ai family still alive? The late emperor... The Ai family has protected this child for you for the rest of your life. Now the emperor has gone. You can take the Ai family away, and take the Ai family away..."

"The emperor's grandmother and me..." Chu Shaoling held the empress dowager's hand and whispered, "The emperor's grandmother is just concerned about her father and forgot her grandson? Even for the sake of her grandson, the emperor's grandmother shouldn't say this..."

Chu Shaoling brought the teacup brought by Madam Sun and handed it to the empress dowager: "The grandson is still counting on the emperor and grandmother to mention the grandson..."

"What else do you have to use to give me some advice from the Ai family..." The empress dowager was persuaded by Chu Shaoling for half a day and calmed down a little. She took the tea and drank two sips and choked in a low voice, "The emperor hurt the Ai family's heart. I thought it would not be so uncomfortable, but... if it was not good, he was also the son of the Ai family, the emperor..."

Chu Shaoling gently wiped away the tears for the Empress Dowager and said softly: "Who doesn't know the kindness of the emperor's grandmother? There are still many things to be done below to be taken care of by the emperor's grandmother, and don't be too sad to hurt your body."

Madam Sun interrupted at the right time, "Yes, the Queen Mother has been unhappy this year, so she can no longer care about herself."

The Empress Dowager nodded and tears flowed down again. Chu Shaoling couldn't help but comfort him. A palace servant came in and whispered: "Report to the Empress Dowager, the Crown Prince, the royal family's relatives and cabinet ministers have already entered the palace. Lord Wang asked the slave to ask where the emperor's will is now, and whether it should be taken out to read it to the royal family and all the adults."

The Empress Dowager paused and wiped her face and whispered: "Before the Emperor left... did he leave a will?"

Chu Shaoling comforted: "It has been staying here for a long time, Wang Muhan..."

Wang Muhan brought the forged willow with both hands. Chu Shaoling opened it and showed it to the empress dowager first. The empress dowager saw that it was the handwriting of Grand Secretary Feng, which was stamped with the emperor's seal. There was nothing wrong with it. The empress dowager rested and nodded: "It's good if there is a willow. Please order someone to read the willow so that they know that the emperor also belonged to the crown prince before leaving. This matter must not be delayed, and no one should let those who are interested make a fuss."

Wang Muhan bowed and agreed, and asked again: "The clan outside asked the fourth prince if he should send someone to pick up the fourth prince."

Speaking of Chu Shaoyang, the Empress Dowager's face was a little darker. This was also the child she had loved and spoiled. But she didn't expect that she had a bad intention and had no friendship with Chu Shaoling. The Empress Dowager looked at Chu Shaoling, and Chu Shaoling said lightly: "This is natural. I inform the Ministry of Rites to arrange for someone to go to the Pingyuan to pick up Chu Shaoyang back."

Wang Muhan nodded and left.

Chu Shaoling turned around and sat down, holding the empress dowager's hand and whispered: "Just leave the matter here to my grandson. With the help of the uncle from the royal family, I think there is no problem. The emperor's grandmother has not been very happy these days, so I'd better go back to Ci'an Palace first. If there is any problem, my grandson will ask the emperor's grandmother."

The Empress Dowager was quite impressed and nodded, "The Ai family ordered people to clean up Bitao Garden. You should rest in Bitao Garden these days."

Chu Shaoling nodded and agreed, stood up and helped the empress dowager to take the person directly to the outside chariot before turning back. Wang Muhan had finished the matter outside and came in and replied: "The will has been read out, and there was no trouble. The clans are going to come in and kowtow to the prince. Should we prepare the incense table and other items first..."

"No need." Chu Shaoling waved his hand, "Packard the main hall of Chengqian Palace and invite everyone in, and pay tribute to the emperor of the Great Han Dynasty first. You have not ascended the throne yet, so don't worry about these."

Wang Muhan got the order to put away the will and went out to pass it to the members of the royal family. The guards stepped forward and whispered: "Your Highness... I have many inconveniences here, so why not go out with the guards..."

"It's not convenient for you to stand outside the hall with the guards?" Chu Shaoling pursed his thin lips slightly, "Duke of Wei, remember your current identity clearly, but only some clan relatives, not much more noble than you."

As soon as Chu Shaoling's words fell, Wang Muhan had already welcomed everyone in. When the clans saw Chu Shaoling kneeling three times and kowtowed to his ministers, Chu Shaoling ordered people to help everyone up and whispered: "Emperor Daxing has just left. Even though he has a will, I dare not act rashly. I hope all uncles will help him in the funeral."

Everyone said they didn't dare. Several people couldn't help but look at the guard halberd behind Chu Shaoling. Chu Shaoling swept his phoenix eyes, and the people quickly lowered their heads. Chu Shaoling ordered people to bring the filial piety clothes prepared for the royal family, and he went to the bedroom of Chengqian Palace to kneel down.

At the Chou time, the Minister of Rites brought the officials of the Ministry of Rites to the palace. After kowtowed to Chu Shaoling, he went to the Interior Office to discuss the funeral with several chief executives. At the time of Yin, officials and imperial edicts from various prefectures entered the palace one after another. Outside the Baohe Hall, Chu Shaoling took a chariot to meet the officials, and ordered Wang Muhan to send someone to take the wife of the imperial edict to see the queen mother. After seeing the officials, Chu Shaoling turned back to discuss the matter of stopping the spirit with the Ministry of Rites. When the sky was dawn, the palace servants ordered the palace servants to move the body of Emperor Daxing to the main hall of Chengqian Palace. During this period, Chu Shaoling carried a guard halberd wherever he walked.

After all the arrangements were made, it was already time. The clan and important officials retreated to the side hall, leaving only Chu Shaoling and Chu Shaosui, as well as the sixth prince Chu Shaohan, who was held by the wet nurse, kneeled in front of the coffin of the Emperor Daxing. Chu Shaohan cried for a while, and the wet nurse kept coaxing her. Chu Shaoling was upset and whispered: "The sixth brother is still so young, don't have to waste time here. Take it back to Yongfu Palace first."

The nanny of the sixth prince was feeling sorry for the little prince. He heard this and bowed repeatedly, hugged the sixth prince and retreated. The fifth prince couldn't help but turn his head and look, rubbed his red eyes, Chu Shaoling chuckled in his heart and said in a deep voice: "Is sleepy?"

Chu Shaosui quickly shook his head. Although he was young, he had a lot of teachings from his mother, Concubine Shu. He knew that he must not lose his manners in front of Chu Shaoling. Chu Shaosui straightened his body and said respectfully: "Brother, I will not be sleepy."

Chu Shaoling waved his hand and said, "I have been tossed since last night. Why can't I not sleep? Your wet nurse is also outside the hall. Let's go find your wet nurse and come over when the deacon finds you."

Chu Shaosui subconsciously felt that he should be kneeling here, but he really wanted to go back. Because it was Chu Shaoling who dared not ignore his words, he kowtowed a few times and left. Only Chu Shaoling was left in the empty hall. Chu Shaoling chuckled at the throne of the emperor Daxing on the incense table. The emperor left six princes, and in the end he was the only one who knelt for him. How ridiculous it was.

The palace concubine and imperial decree knelt on the ground in the west side of Chengqian Palace were crying. The empress dowager sat on the chair on the right and shed tears. The concubines kept comforting her. She was sad and saw the fifth prince Chu Shaosui walked in. Concubine Shu hurried over and pulled the person. Chu Shaosui left the main hall and did not see his wet nurse. She walked into the side hall in a daze. After seeing Concubine Shu hugged Concubine Shu's legs and cried. Shu Concubine Shu saw that everyone was afraid that others would say that Chu Shaosui didn't understand the rules and quickly scolded him: "Why don't you kneel down in the main hall? Your father is gone, aren't you the most uncomfortable?"

"Brother asked me to go back first..." Chu Shaosui burped in tears, "I didn't find the wet nurse, mother..."

The wet nurse who was making trouble for Chu Shaosui hurriedly walked in. She was just guarding outside the hall and felt uncomfortable. After a moment of hard work, Chu Shaosui ran out. Concubine Shu was furious and looked around and pulled the wet nurse out. She raised her hand and slapped the wet nurse and whispered: "Slave who is trying to die! What day is today? Why don't you watch Sui'er wander around?!"

The wet nurse cried and begged for it was not thoughtful, and Concubine Shu wanted to beat her again. Madam Sun came out and whispered: "The Empress Dowager said that the fifth prince is still young and can't hold on for a night. There is also a child who can't stand it. Every family can't stand it. Let's take the fifth prince back to Fengqi Palace for a rest."

Concubine Shu thanked her repeatedly and sent someone to take the fifth prince back. The empress dowager in the side hall sighed and turned to Zhen Si and said, "Sui'er can't hold on, let alone Han'er. Go and take Han'er back to Yongfu Palace, so that you can watch it better. The snow outside is so heavy, don't freeze."

Zhen Si had long wanted to say this, and quickly wiped the tears from his face and nodded and thanked him.

In the main hall, Chu Shaoling was closing his eyes to rest. Zhen Si helped the girl in but could not see the sixth prince. Chu Shaoling turned to look at Zhen Si and said, "Come and find Lao Liu?"

Zhen Si nodded, and Chu Shaoling said lightly: "Lao Liu has been crying, and Gu has ordered the wet nurse to carry him back to Yongfu Palace."

Zhen Si lowered her eyes: "Thank you for your kindness." Chu Shaoling turned around and stopped talking. Zhen Si turned out and turned back as soon as she left the hall. She didn't want to say these words to Chu Shaoling in front of the Emperor Daxing, but the opportunity to be alone with Chu Shaoling was too rare. Zhen Si bit her lip and whispered: "I have a few things in the palace to ask the prince."

Chu Shaoling nodded: "You ask."

"I don't want to mention the previous incident. The Zhen family and the prince have a deep grudge. Before entering the palace, I expected the situation of the Zhen family's defeat in the future. However... I didn't expect that thanking the prince and the queen mother, my family would survive. I was very grateful." Zhen Si was slightly blessed, "I will naturally have to repay the kindness of the prince. I will say more about the various inconveniences of return. In the future... As long as the prince still uses the place to use the palace, I will give orders. I will only hope..."

"I just hope that when the sixth prince becomes an adult, the prince can choose a fiefdom and give it to the sixth prince at will. I will let the sixth prince go to the fiefdom with the sixth prince, so that we can live a stable life for a few days." Zhen Si raised her eyes and looked at Chu Shaoling, "I promise that the sixth prince's lineage will never make noble relatives again and will not cause any storm."

Chu Shaoling looked at Zhen Si silently and said for a while: "Don't wait until the sixth generation is adult, and it's enough to wait for him to be ten years old. If you still want to be so peaceful in these ten years, I will choose a good place to give it to him. Then you can pick up your parents together, only one point, and you are not allowed to step into the imperial city after leaving. I will never want to see the Zhen clan again."

Zhen Si never expected Chu Shaoling to be extra kind, and he agreed happily, "Yes, yes... as long as he can leave the palace..."

Chu Shaoling turned his head and Zhen Si left the hall with joy, and was walking away from the face of the guard who came into the hall with a bundle.

Wei Ji saw that Zhen Si quickly took a step back to the right and bowed, saying, "Please take care of Concubine Zhen."

Zhen Si paused, nodded and said, "Hello, Duke Wei... Hello."

Wei Ji nodded and entered the hall. The snow today became more and more anxious. The weather was very cold. Wei Ji was afraid that Chu Shaoling's clothes would be thin, so he went to Bitaoyuan to pick up a cloak.

Zhen Si stood outside the hall in a daze, only hearing the sound from the hall...

"Why are you running around so cold outside?! What should you do if you slip in the snow?!"

"I...I am afraid that your highness will be cold..."

"If I'm cold, aren't you cold? Look at the cold hands, I'll scold you again, right? Put it on..."

"Your Highness, I'm taking this for your Highness, no..."

"As you obedient, put on your cover first... Are your boots wet?"

"Not wet..."

"Empress, Empress..." Zhen Si's palace maid whispered to Zhen Si, "Are we going back to Yongfu Palace?"

Zhen Si came to his senses, nodded and said, "Yes, go back and see the Sixth Prince."

Zhen Si helped the palace servants into the sedan chair. Today she had already received Chu Shaoling's promise. This was more important than anything else. Compared to the illusory warmth in the ice, all she could count on was her small bloodline sleeping in Yongfu Palace.

I remembered that I had just heard the conversation in the hall and Zhen Si couldn't hold on and smiled. I had heard that His Highness the Crown Prince and Duke Wei had a good time. It was better to see him at first sight than to hear all the time. As expected, this is true, it is very good.

The guard halberd in the main hall was sitting on the soft couch wearing a cloak. Chu Shaoling held him behind the halberd. Soon, both of them came over. Chu Shaoling lowered his head and kissed the guard halberd on the side of the halberd. The guard halberd shrank into the chalk...
