Not white

"Saint, saint, saint..."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

"My Lord, my Lord, my Lord..."

Thousands of tears streamed down his face as King Jiangxia's cries echoed throughout the entire Taiji Palace from Yongfufang, where tens of thousands of people were gathered...

The children of the royal family showed no emotion on their faces. At this moment, they all turned into living fish in ink that could not be washed off, swimming desperately from Chang'an City into the Taiji Palace.

The Taiji Palace changed hands, and Yongfufang was overturned.

There are two capitals in the east and west, one hundred and eight districts in the north and south, and two markets in the east and west.

The city of Chang'an collapsed into a sea of ​​white.

The son of the Li family left the tavern, and the daughter of the Li family left the second market.

People from all over the world, including men and women from the Li family, flocked to the Taiji Palace.

Princes, princesses, people with the surname Li, people with the surname Qian, officials and their wives, men and women, were all stopped outside the Taiji Palace.

The gilded belt shines like a star.

The goalkeeper threw away the gold, silver and bronze fish, the gold, silver and bronze turtles like dirt, none of them were worth a penny.

As noble as the princes and princesses of the Li family are, in critical moments, they are no better than a small city gate guard.

Noble Lady Zhu leads the horse, Noble Lady Dong pats the horse, and I pass away from the world first.

He was the first to step into the Tai Chi Palace.

Behind me, in the bustling crowd, Princess Huayang ignored her heavy body and staggered back to the palace. Princess Liyang abandoned her carriage and walked back to Taiji Palace. Princess Jinyang cried all the way back to Taiji Palace from Chang'an City.

The city gate guard must perform his duties conscientiously, and the daughter of the Li family must be filial and devoted.

The place was filled with quarrels, cries and shouts.

I also saw the King of Qi, the King of Ping, the King of Ning, and the King of Wei, and I saw their unwillingness. They each had his own unwillingness, a deep-rooted unwillingness.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not on good terms with his brothers and sisters. In other words, none of the Li family's sons and daughters will please the new emperor.

The man at the palace gate is about to rule the world, while the princes outside the gate are so crowded that they can hardly move.

A palace gate, a world of difference.

If they are called brothers, how can they willingly submit to him?

That day, Eunuch Dong and Eunuch Zhu were of one mind. This was rare. They were anxious and urged me to enter the palace as soon as possible...

Outside the Yongle Hall, the imperial concubine, princess, prince, female officials, palace maids, and eunuchs all knelt on the steps, crying incessantly.

The emperor's sudden death was unexpected by the world.

The Empress, the Crown Prince, and no one in or outside the palace had such an idea.

At that time, I was fifteen and the crown prince was eighteen, not yet the age of twenty for ordinary people.

The sage has been in power for four years. Even if the crown prince governs the country, how long can he still do that?

The court and the country are in turmoil, the foundation is unstable, the ruler is young and the country is in doubt. It is natural that the Empress Dowager should take charge of the government first.

The funeral ceremony of the late emperor and the coronation ceremony of the new emperor.

These are not trivial matters.

The Empress was waiting for the court officials, the Ministry of Rites, the envoys to the mausoleum, and everyone else to gather together.

Eunuch Zhu led me to Yongle Palace.

Inside the hall.

The one sleeping is the emperor, and the one kneeling is the prince.

Apart from this, there is no one else.

The poisonous wine I drank last was poisonous, but not poisonous enough. I felt an uneven mixture of joy and sorrow when I was alive, and was in great pain when I died. I was not killed by the poison but by the pain. The poisonous wine tortured me for most of the day before it took my life.

But the saint left no last words, no testament, and his divine world had not yet been established. He just died just like that, just died silently... After a few breaths of pain, he was suddenly dead.

It's not poison, it's not an injury, it's just an extremely sudden and serious illness.

I fell to my knees, feeling sorry, sad, ridiculous and pitiful.

Even if you are the true dragon emperor, you cannot escape death in the end.

The saint's ambitions, all his great plans and aspirations, were all burned in the fire of his short life.

If I were to come back again in the future, I would think that I should add another sixty years to comfort the spirit of the late emperor.

The prince had not changed his clothes yet, so Lady Zhu presented him with a linen robe and suddenly handed it to me.

I hope that the eunuch's hands and feet are still as they were before, and allow me to change the clothes for the Crown Prince.

After not seeing him for a winter, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has changed a lot, like a completely different person.

There are twelve months in a year, and I have changed a lot. Last year's mourning clothes are not enough to wear this year.

Donggong has grown into a prince of the royal family and has become an existence that I cannot ignore.

From that moment on, I had to pay attention to this new monarch, and I had to take He Nu and the Crown Prince into consideration.

I want stability, I want to protect my life, I want to be healthy, so I should guess what Donggong is thinking.

Only in this way can I live long.

The prince said nothing, hid his tears in his heart, and refused to act recklessly.

The coveted throne has to be obtained at the cost of my own father's life. If it were me, I would be unstoppably happy.

The prince looked at Mai, and also saw me.

After just one glance, he immediately turned it over as if he were looking at an annoying death row prisoner.

Behind the screen, the crown prince knelt for so long that he could not stand steadily. As soon as I turned around, he leaned into my arms, his tears filling my chest and staining my clothes. I sighed that he was in pain from losing his father, so I didn't bother with him. Seeing that he was crying like me, it was difficult for me not to comfort him, but I couldn't and didn't dare to push him away.

"Grandpa!"

Princess Jinyang cried and brought all the people from the Li family, young and old, men and women, all those related to the Li family, into the Yongle Palace.

The crown prince was so sad that he could no longer distinguish between good and bad. The princess exclaimed and finally brought him back to his senses.

His Excellency the Eastern Palace pushed me away and threw me to the ground in front of everyone.

"Prince!"

I was on the ground, and the Li family witnessed it with their own eyes. The prince's temper was fully revealed, and I was in a mess. The queen came into the hall and scolded me harshly.

Fortunately, even without the saint, I still have the queen.

The prince decides as he pleases, and I have to accept it.

At that time, I was still too kind.

Princess Anyang was on the left, I was on the right, and Princess Huayang was kneeling in the middle.

A year later, I never imagined, and neither did the princesses, that the three of us would be gathered together in front of the saint's spirit.

The eldest princess was pregnant, and the Empress and Consort Shu sent the princess back to Xianju Palace. The princess refused to go because she wanted to fulfill her filial duty, so Anyang and I watched over her while crying.

When a saint passes away, everyone in the world must be present within a month.

The disaster many years ago, in addition to many Li.

The remaining members of the Li family were neither too many nor too few. They included the royal family of Chang'an, the royal family of Luoyang, the King Guang who worshipped Buddha, the King Anle who wore Taoist robes, the Princess of Liang who became a nun, the Princess Yiyang who entered Taoism, the King Quanshi who raised horses, and the King Fugui who drank wine. One after another, they all gathered in the Taiji Palace in Chang'an City.

The Empress and the Crown Prince took advantage of the Saint's death to seize power in the capital, and all troops from all over the country had to travel to Chang'an with a small entourage.

Everywhere was peaceful, except for Huang Xiaoshou of Yizhou, who claimed to be ill and could not come. The same thing happened at Pinglu.

They "hid" in their own homes and refused to pay homage to Chang'an or return power to the Li family.

The stability of the Li family in Chang'an depends entirely on the Queen and the Crown Prince who shoulder the responsibilities of the world.

The saint, the dragon rides to heaven.

Inside the Taiji Palace, people kneeled and cried every day.

Among those in white and linen, King Jiangxia shouted the loudest, and I cried the most fiercely.

This is King Jiangxia's nature.

I am a person without much heart. I shed tears and wept bitterly for the late emperor. I cried more miserably than the imperial consorts, princesses and daughters of the Li family, because it was their husbands and fathers who passed away.

I am not crying for the saint or my grandfather, I am crying for my backer, my biggest backer, and even more so for myself.

I closed my eyes and cried harder than anyone else, completely unaware that everyone was watching me.

Fortunately, the new emperor has to observe a three-year mourning period for the late emperor, and my marriage with the Tian family will be postponed for another three to five years.

This secretly suits my wishes and openly suits the prince's wishes as well.
