Chapter 6 Death
Li Chiying looked at the figure standing outside the inner palace with some complexity.
Many years ago, she regarded him as her dream lover like many ladies in Chang'an.
Compared to those who can only imagine, Li Chiying kept saying that he was the most likely.
After all, her father, the Supreme Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, personally asked about this, and her brother, the most powerful person in the Tang Dynasty, also told her.
In addition, they have many contacts and contacts.
But no one can force fate.
During his reign, Pei Min fought outside and guarded the Western Front. Li Dan was a Chinese talent. As an emperor, he was not outstanding in his talent, but he valued feelings the most and was reluctant to let his daughter marry to the north to suffer. After learning that Pei Min had resigned and planned to find a new candidate for her.
Li Chiying was naturally unwilling to do so. After a while, things were dragged on until Li Dan passed away.
Li Chiying prayed for Li Dan for three years as a Taoist priest.
In the following years, King Shen Li Ying, King Qi Li Longfan, and Princess Jinxian died one after another, and Li Chiying experienced all the sufferings of his relatives' departure.
A heart becomes weak and you really have the idea of entering the Tao.
But at this critical moment, Li Longji asked her to force her to return to secular life and booked the marriage between them in front of all civil and military officials.
Seeing each other unexpectedly today, Li Chiying's eyes were a little wet, and all kinds of feelings surged into her heart.
After putting down the curtain of the car, she was worried that she would not be able to control herself for a while and cried out.
"Have you met the eldest princess!"
Pei Min bowed.
"Your Majesty Prince Pei doesn't need to be polite!" Li Chiying's voice came from the fragrant car, his tone was a little cold, but the final ending sound was a little lost.
At this moment, Lin Zhaoyin ran out anxiously. Seeing Pei Min and Li Chiying outside the palace, he shouted anxiously: "Princess, Princess, go in quickly, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, beg you."
Lin Zhaoyin's tone was a little wrong.
Pei Min's face changed suddenly and he rushed directly to the harem.
Li Chiying also had a pale face. Li Longji hurriedly invited her into the palace today, and she felt something was wrong.
But behind him, the sound of horse hooves came.
When Pei Min looked behind him, it was Li Chiying.
“Come up!”
Li Chiying shouted and stretched out his hand.
Pei Min couldn't help but pull it and flexibly turned on the horse's back.
Li Chiying was not good at riding skills and could not control the horse. Pei Min took the reins and rode his horse outside Li Longji's bedroom.
Pei Min turned over and got off the horse. Although she was anxious, she did not ignore Li Chiying and helped her get off the horse.
Pei Min wanted to walk quickly to the bedroom, but found that the corner of her clothes was held.
Li Chiying closed her eyes and shook her head and said, "I'm afraid, I dare not!"
Afraid!
Pei Min was also afraid.
Since Li Longji turned his back, Pei Min has known that there will be such a day, but he has been longing for a miracle to appear in his heart.
But……
"Don't be afraid, I'm there!"
Pei Min couldn't understand what a girl who loves to laugh and has a bit of a weirdness has experienced? What has become like today? It's heartbreaking?
All he could do was to comfort her possible.
The simple four words, like the switch of a faucet, turned on the long-stored tears. Tears rolled down, and said with a little crying voice: "Let's go, don't let the third brother wait for a long time."
Li Chiying walked towards the bedroom with big strides, and Pei Min followed him into the hall.
Li Chiying ran to the bed, knelt in front of Li Longji's appearance, cried and shouted: "Brother!"
The miserable voice made people feel heartbroken.
Pei Min came to the bed with heavy steps, looking at Li Longji on the hospital bed, and a few traces of discomfort appeared on his firm face.
That skinny look, how could there be any trace of Li Jiasanlang?
Li Longji put it on Li Chiying's head with difficulty and pointed it at Pei Min with painstaking help.
Pei Min came to the couch, knelt down, and held Li Longji's hand tightly.
Li Longji worked hard to put his dull eyes on his face, with sadness and unwillingness in his eyes, and a hint of expectation.
Holding Zhuang Li Longji's trembling hand, Pei Min couldn't help but shed a few tears.
The concubines, palace maids, eunuchs and eunuchs and eunuchs around were all infected and all shed tears.
Pei Min said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will protect the prince and the Tang Dynasty."
Li Longji's eyes were filled with strange lights, showing a look of surprise and relief, and he opened his mouth and said weakly: "And her..."
Pei Min nodded cautiously and said, "Including the eldest princess!"
Li Chiying's body trembled slightly.
Li Longji slowly closed his eyes, turned his head weakly to the side, and passed away.
The crying sounded in the bedroom immediately shook the sky, and the eunuchs around him knelt on the ground.
According to the rules, the emperor must not ring the death knives when he is in funeral. First, the capital is in martial law. After the mourning, the temples and temples in the city will ring 30,000 bells to show mourning.
Pei Min endured the grief in his heart and took charge of Li Longji's funeral.
First, he ordered martial law in the capital, and then ordered all civil and military officials to enter the court with mourning clothes.
When Pei Min issued the martial law order in the capital, many officials had guessed the reason. The order of mourning was passed on, and all the civil and military officials immediately woke up and couldn't help but cry loudly.
As an important official in entrusting his orphans, Pei Min endured the sadness and wrote a tribute in person.
At the end of the sacrificial text, Pei Min summarized Li Longji's body: civil and military talents, lenient and strict, knowledgeable and capable of slander, and was not able to do so. His majestic and martial arts strategy was the same as Emperor Taizong. He was reigned for twenty years, and his power was full of virtue and patriotism, and his guests from all directions were submissive. His territory was wide, and he was far beyond his predecessors. He was successful and fierce, and he was extremely prosperous.
Perhaps in history, Li Longji has mixed praises and criticisms, and has rated the wise kings of the world, but Li Longji cannot even be called a virtuous person.
But Li Longji of this era was undoubtedly great, and he could compare with the eternal wise monarchs like Emperor Wu of Han and Emperor Taizong of Tang...
He died young, leaving too many thoughts.
A country cannot be without a king for a day!
The day of Li Longji's funeral was the time when Li Yan ascended the throne.
The death knell also rang at this time.
The sound of death bell shook Chang'an.
Li Longji's illness attracted the hearts of many people in the world. As soon as the death knell rang, the people of Chang'an cried with regret.
In the hearts of the people, Li Longji is also a good emperor.
Compared with Emperor Zhongzong of Tang and Emperor Ruizong of Tang, the Kaiyuan prosperous era founded by Li Longji is undoubtedly a symbol of happiness and fulfillment.
It was already early morning when Pei Min returned to the mansion.
The whole of Chang'an was indulged in sorrow, both officials and the people were commemorating the young and outstanding emperor.
Pei Min comforted himself many times that Li Longji's ending today is much better than the Tang Xuanzong who was under house arrest in history, alone, alone, and in a silence, and finally passed away in desolate manner.
But he could never overcome the hurdle in his heart. If it weren't for him, he wouldn't have passed away so early.
The butterfly effect caused by his own appearance is really unpredictable.
But the butterfly effect can really shorten the life span of 30 years?
