Chapter 1379 The Foolish Empress 2
Gunmian is one of the most noble clothes. It is the dress worn by the emperor when he ascends the throne, worships heaven and earth, ancestral temples, and major celebrations such as Zhengdan, Winter Solstice, and Holy Festivals.
Upon hearing this, the young general knelt down on one leg: "Your Majesty, please think twice."
"Yes, Your Majesty, as long as you escape from the palace and use the tiger talisman to adjust the three armies to escort you, a long-lasting victorious army will be beyond the reach of King Duan." The beautiful man in front of the bed seems to have a backbone. As long as there is a way, just look When hope comes, courage comes naturally.
Xining still stood motionless: "Bring me Gon Mian and change my clothes!"
The empress said so, and the palace maid could only bring the stored crown.
Xining also took this moment to accept the plot.
The owner's name is Xiao Jingzhu, and she is the first daughter of the former queen. She was the eldest princess before, and later ascended the throne, with the country's name of Jiaping.
In this world, both men and women can inherit the throne. To establish elders is not to establish children; to establish direct descendants is not to establish concubines. As the eldest daughter, the body owner naturally became the king after the death of the late emperor.
King Duan is the eldest son of the late king, one year older than the Lord of the Body. He has been extremely smart since he was a child and has a photographic memory. But he couldn't help it, his mother was a palace maid.
After the body master succeeded to the throne, he suppressed King Duan. When he was assigned to Dayan, a bitter and cold place on the frontier, it was as if he was not allowed to enter the capital without the emperor's order. As a result, his biological mother, Concubine Lin, passed away and was unable to go to Beijing to pay her respects.
The country governs the world with filial piety. In order to deceive others, a group of ministers came up with "clever tricks". Since people can't come to pay their respects, the body can be sent there.
So Concubine Lin's body was sent to Dayan. After King Duan paid his condolences, it was returned to the royal mausoleum where the concubines were buried next to the late emperor's tomb.
It was midsummer in June, a hot day. Even if they were suffocated with ice all the way, they still couldn't block the stench coming out of the coffin when they arrived at Yandi.
There was no need to clear the road, and pedestrians on the road covered their noses to avoid it. The water from the melted ice dripped down the cracks in the coffin.
The body of the concubine lying in the mixture of ice and water was blue and swollen, and exuded an odor that was difficult to cover up. No amount of spices and incense could cover up the stench that filled the mourning hall.
Now that the funeral is over, we have to send it back to the royal tomb...
King Duan actually endured it!
During the three years of keeping Xiao, the body owner listened to the slanderous ministers and asked King Duan to go to the capital every winter solstice to worship the late emperor and pay homage to his mother and concubine. But he was only allowed to bring fifty personal guards, and there were many restrictions after arriving in Beijing.
What looks like grace is actually surveillance. If someone is not happy, he will find a reason to kill him. Even if the bright ones can't come, the dark ones can.
As for the master, three times in three years, King Duan came to visit the tomb, and secretly sent more than fifty dead soldiers. I assassinated him seven or eight times, but I couldn't kill King Duan.
Prince Duan actually endured it!
I have become a Ninja Turtle, but why did I do the opposite this time?
It was Mian Shou's idea. If Prince Duan could endure this, he must have a plan. He should be taxed heavily so that he has no money or food in his treasury. In this case, there will be no strength to support officers, soldiers and staff.
If there is a disaster in Yan and there is a shortage of money and food, then the capital will allocate funds to the people of Yan. Naturally, the people of Yan will be grateful to His Majesty Dale, not to King Duan.
The owner of the body heard that this was reasonable, so he ordered that the land of Yan be taxed heavily.
Originally, the fiefdom did not pay taxes, and the princes and princes of the fiefdom paid tribute. The amount of tribute paid depended on sincerity. But for many things, sometimes you need to rely on the emperor, so you will naturally pay as much tribute as possible.
Even if you don't want to pay tribute, you generally follow the tithe. It’s ten portions of the harvest, one of which goes into paying taxes and tribute.
With a stroke of his pen, the body owner issued an imperial edict requiring half of the income to be returned to the national treasury.
This aroused the anger of heaven and the resentment of people. Originally, the country of Yan was bitter and mostly consisted of saline-alkali land. The food sown will yield very little. Even if ordinary taxes are paid, the remaining food will only feed and clothe the whole family. Now if half of it goes to the national treasury, it will force people to starve to death.
In anger, King Duan gathered his troops and conscripted troops to attack the evildoers. Under the guise of Qing Junzi, he came all the way.
In panic, the owner of the body put on the palace maid's clothes, followed by his father-in-law's clothes, and tried to escape from the palace.
As a result, on the way to escape, he was besieged and everyone died in the battle, and the body owner also died.
While cleaning the battlefield, the body owner was recognized. King Duan burst into tears as soon as he saw her, crying until he died, saying that he just wanted to kill those slanderers, but did not want to kill his sister or the king. As for the head, when King Duan saw the corpse, he chopped off the head with a sword, cursed at the headless corpse and then cried incessantly.
After crying, scold again, and after scolding, cry again.
Xining...this drama is too good. Being able to do so many things at the same time with ease, King Duan is definitely a talent.
When he was tired of scolding, King Duan asked others to continue scolding, while he cried for the empress next to him.
So on one side, he was yelling at the headless corpse, while on the other side, King Duan was sitting on the ground, beating his chest and crying.
Xining...this picture.
The ministers came "after hearing the news", but in fact they were all escorted.
There were a few loyal people who naturally yelled and cursed, and of course they were all imprisoned. After that, those who know the current affairs will be recruited. Those who were ignorant of current affairs had their homes confiscated and their families exterminated.
And more ministers knelt down and urged Prince Duan not to break his body from crying. Your Majesty and the late emperor would understand Prince Duan's painstaking efforts. Some people even say that the country cannot be left without a master for a day, so King Duan should quickly ascend the throne and handle state affairs.
King Duan refused and arranged the funeral first. During the funeral, the empress couldn't kneel down and cried until she vomited blood. He also supported his body and held the coffin all the way.
As for his face, didn't the empress like him very much, so she sewed his head shut, put on beautiful clothes, and buried him together.
Xining...it's a bit scary.
Fifteen days later, King Duan put on his crown, worshiped heaven and ascended the throne, and changed the name of his country to Jianyuan.
Hehe, Jianyuan, built from scratch, and the ghost believed that King Duan was not here to usurp the throne.
Wearing a black dragon robe, a jade belt around the waist, and a nine-pointed crown on the head.
Xining stood in front of the bronze mirror and looked at himself. He looked pretty good. Well, to mortal eyes, she looks beautiful. But the elder sister is more beautiful than the owner!
The body owner is tall and slender, with slightly upturned phoenix eyes and thin sword eyebrows. He does not wear a dragon robe, but he still carries an imperial majesty.
But at this time, this empress' happiness came to an end. The sound of fighting outside became more intense, and it could be heard clearly along the night wind that was full of the smell of blood.
He stepped forward to arrange her dragon robe flatteringly. But she raised her hand to indicate no need.
"Your Majesty~" He held up his sleeves and cried miserably, feeling so sad.
"It doesn't have to be like this, everyone will die eventually." Xining comforted.
"Your Majesty~" His face was filled with tears. A man could actually cry as beautifully and touchingly as a woman. No wonder he was favored by his master. He ignored the other male concubines in the palace and favored him alone.
He was crying sadly at this time: "If I can die for your majesty, I will go through fire and water without hesitation. Your majesty should put on other clothes and leave the palace with the tiger charm."
Nonsense, if I could, I would have done it. Facts have proved that this path does not work! No matter how powerful my sister is in martial arts, she can't resist so many rebels.
That young general named Wei Heng, whose martial arts skills were not high enough, was killed together at that time. He was stabbed several times. Before he died, he was still protecting his body owner. After death, he could not stand up. He fell down only after he was kicked by the rebels. Down.
"Oh~" Xining drawled: "Are you willing to go through fire and water for me, no matter what?"
Mian Shou knelt beside him, still raising his sleeves and crying: "Yes, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it."
"Then let me lend you something!" The voice came with an unprecedented gloominess.
Then there was the golden sound of the sword being unsheathed. The buzzing sound is accompanied by a chill on the neck...
