Chapter 654 Farewell to the Emperor!
The platinum fish before was not like that, and neither is the princess now.
Baihualou could barely be considered her rival, but now it has been defeated by them. She doesn't know whether she will encounter a stronger rival in the future. Life is lonely without a rival, but it is a headache if there are too many rivals.
"Thank you, Princess Fu'an, and thank you, Right Regent!"
The eldest princess turned around and returned to the mourning hall sadly.
***
Seven days later, the late emperor was buried.
The capital city was in mourning, and the monks of the royal temple chanted scriptures in the mourning hall day and night for seven days.
On the day of the funeral, the weather in the capital, which had been cloudy and rainy for dozens of days, finally cleared up.
Along the ten-mile-long street, the people also wore plain clothes to see off the Emperor.
There were sounds of funeral music and white paper money all the way. Civil and military officials saw the emperor off. The eldest princess was in front, the third princess was behind, and even the crazy second princess followed the coffin, walking silently and shedding tears. The concubines cried all the way, and the new emperor personally carried the coffin. The whole country was in mourning.
Buried in the royal mausoleum.
When the body was buried, Master Dazhi personally recited the mantra for rebirth.
I saw black air surging in the sky above the royal mausoleum. It was all coming from the coffin where Emperor Xuan was, and it was full of resentment.
It's breathtaking.
It was the first time for many people, including Jiang Lianzhu.
The black air does not dissipate.
Master Dazhi did not dare to take it lightly, and led his disciples and monks to chant even louder.
People in the crowd began to talk.
"What can we do? Our late emperor's resentment is still lingering. It's so overwhelming, alas..."
"No matter who you are, you will have obsessions in your heart! The late emperor suffered!"
"If such a huge resentment is not dissipated and it continues to hover over our Da'an Nation, it will affect the fate of the country, right?"
…
The War King remained calm, standing at the front of the soldiers with his horse and sword. He also came to see them off with his soldiers.
Jiang Lianzhu saw Zhou Gong and the others rubbing their hands anxiously, and Master Dazhi was sweating on his forehead, but the black energy still did not dissipate.
There were three princesses. The second princess was confused, the third princess was timid, and only the eldest princess threw herself on Emperor Xuan's coffin and cried bitterly.
"Father, are you unwilling to leave? Father, your daughter doesn't want to live anymore. Please take Xiu'er with you! Xiu'er will accompany you on the road to the underworld!"
The black energy seemed to really want to roll Xuanxiu up.
The second princess was so frightened that she took several steps back.
The third princess was also trembling and took several steps back, fearing that she would be contaminated by the black energy.
Jiang Lianzhu frowned. Could it be that someone did this on purpose?
She used her magic power to investigate and sense everything around her. The black air was not created intentionally by humans, but it was indeed a kind of energy that made people feel uncomfortable.
She was just about to think of a way to dispel the black energy.
Unexpectedly, Dabao said in a loud voice, "Your Majesty, the owner of Baihua Tower, Eunuch Si, has been executed. The fake Crown Prince Xuanye is dead. The Queen is like a lost dog. Sooner or later, she will be apprehended and brought to justice. My nephew has successfully ascended the throne. Grandpa Zhan Wang has advanced to the ninth level of martial arts and is the pride of the entire Zhongyuan Continent. No one dares to easily invade our Da'an Kingdom. You can leave with peace of mind. The eldest princess has repented and admitted her mistakes. She is still young, so you don't have to worry about her. The second princess has been released from the Heavenly Prison and called on the world to clear her name. Her condition has also eased. You can leave with peace of mind. The pain is over. Everything is in order..."
The black air in the sky suddenly began to dissipate.
Very magical.
Jiang Lianzhu's eyes were broadened again.
The old ministers, led by Duke Zhou, knelt down first.
"Farewell, Emperor!"
Then, all the people knelt down at the same time.
"Farewell, Emperor!"
The sound is vast and majestic, reaching the sky.
The black air hovering above the imperial mausoleum finally disappeared completely, leaving only the blue sky, white clouds and the bright world.
Master Dazhi said loudly, "The auspicious day has arrived, and the late emperor's coffin has been lowered."
The coffin bearers carried the golden coffin to the dragon pit for burial.
The eldest princess Xuanxiu was so excited that she wanted to jump into the tomb, but was stopped in time by Dabao. Below was a well-built underground tomb with layers of mechanisms and checkpoints. Everyone delivered the coffin here, and the rest was the craftsmen's job.
After Emperor Xuan's burial, everyone was even more convinced of the new emperor. After the death of the previous emperor, they had deep resentment, but the new emperor's words calmed them down.
What does this indicate?
This shows the late emperor's approval of the new emperor. The new emperor had just ascended the throne and had already accomplished several major events. There was also the auspicious sign of the War King's breakthrough...
Before, the people still had doubts in their hearts, but now they are very convinced of the new emperor.
The second princess stared at Dabao with a dull look for a long time.
The third princess was well-behaved and looked like a harmless little rabbit under everyone's gaze. There was some admiration and praise in her eyes when she looked at Dabao.
Only the eldest princess lost her will to live and only wanted to die, wanting to die with Emperor Xuan. She was pulled away and cried sadly.
After Emperor Xuan was buried, Dabao personally sent the eldest princess back home and left someone to take care of her.
Once she gets through this difficult period, she will naturally get over it.
Now it is too much of a blow for her.
***
After Emperor Xuan was buried, King Zhan asked Dabao for permission to leave the capital and go to his fiefdom.
Dabao approved.
The War King planned to set off the next day, and go to Jiang Lianzhu's place for dinner in the evening and say goodbye.
After dinner, Zhan Wang spoke to Jiang Lianzhu alone.
"I'm going back to my fiefdom. Do you want to go with me to take a look? Your mother is buried in the fiefdom..." said King Zhan.
Jiang Lianzhu thought for a moment and said, "I want to go too, but Dabao has just ascended the throne and needs help everywhere. We can't leave for the time being. We also have to track down the remnants of Baihua Tower..."
The War King nodded and did not force Jiang Lianzhu.
Jiang Lianzhu asked again, "Is there something urgent that you need to go back for?"
"Before Wang Ming died, he said that the person who participated in your trafficking was Erlangjun. I will go back and ask him what happened. Also, your mother's death anniversary is coming up, and we can't let her be too lonely. If I can't come back from the war, it's fine. If I have nothing to do at home, I will definitely go back to pay my respects."
"Next year, when I'm free, I'll definitely go back with you to pay my respects to Mother. I simply can't leave now. As for Erlangjun's case, it's possible that Wang Ming framed him before his death. You must investigate thoroughly, Father, and not just listen to Wang Ming's one-sided account."
"I know. The second brother and Wang Ming have always been at odds. The second brother looks down on Wang Ming, and Wang Ming also looks down on the second brother. If he is wronged, it is possible. Dad, I know my limits."
If he hadn't known how to act, he would have ordered the arrest of the second brother long ago.
Also, among the four sons of the King of War, he trusted the second one very much, and the fiefdom has always been managed by the second one.
The second son is bold and careful, cautious by nature, and suitable for managing trivial matters such as fiefdoms.
"That's good."
The War King continued, "Back then, you moved from one faction to another and managed to survive. You must have met a noble person. If you find her, you will definitely thank her."
Jiang Lianzhu also wanted to thank him, "That's right, it's just that it was a long time ago, I don't know where to check. Good people will be rewarded."
