Chapter 128
Facts have proved that Shangguan Yuan's decision is extremely correct.
The first time he took command, he made a great contribution to the world, and returned triumphantly, and the degree of attention was extraordinary.
There are more than 100 servants in the Hou's mansion, either sent by the emperor, or sent by a prince or minister.
It was clean and tidy inside and out, just waiting for the couple to move in.
Didn't fuck at all.
As for the expenses of the banquet, just a dime of the gift is enough to cover it.
The lost daughter really came back!
After making such a great military achievement, others would have already forgotten about it, but Shangguan Yuan seemed very ordinary.
Although Xu Huaishan, the leader of the bandits, is subduing the law, his eldest son Xu Youxiong is missing.
This made him feel very sorry.
Xu Youxiong is a famous warrior who has guarded Xiguan for 20 years and never allowed a single Xiguan soldier to cross the border.
The first emperor once wrote an inscription in his own hand: one man should be the gate and ten thousand men should not open it, and it was given to Xu Youxiong.
However, Shangguan Yuan fought all the way, Xiao Yu Xiao Xia packed up a few baskets, but did not fight Xu Youxiong.
Some people say that Xu Youxiong knew that the situation was over, so he voted for Xirong.
If this is the case, it will definitely become a disaster for the Xuan Dynasty in the future.
Worrying about the country and the people, alas!
His worries are also the emperor's worries.
In the past few years, the court can be described as a big change of blood. Although the emperor has become more and more powerful, the price he has paid is really not small.
In particular, who to send to take over the position left by Xu Youxiong caused him the most headache.
What bothered him even more was that his elder sister, Princess Nandu, always used the pretext of caring for him to point fingers at his side.
As soon as he got impatient, his sister moved out of his dead parents to teach him a lesson.
Taking advantage of Master Wang's triumphant return, Princess Nandu proposed the matter of "moving the grave".
When the Empress Dowager died, the Xuan Dynasty was first built, and there were no decent palaces, let alone the imperial mausoleum.
He remembered from afar that the burial was very hasty at that time, that is to say, it occupied a treasured land of geomantic omen, and the mound was raised higher, and no complicated repairs were carried out.
Nine years ago, the first emperor passed away, and the imperial mausoleum was only half completed.
Counting the days, the project should be completed within two years.
Taking advantage of the completion of the project, moving the coffin of the first empress dowager and burying the emperor and empress together seems to be a filial piety.
However, relocating graves is laborious and wasteful of money, so it is really not suitable to carry out when the civil strife has just been quelled.
He thought about it for a while, and waited until the end of the year to think carefully.
Princess Nandu didn't understand and kept berating him for being unfilial.
"After the new year, the courtiers should advise you to accept a new queen. Isn't the big wedding extravagant and wasteful? The tomb of the mother's mother is simple, just change a coffin and transport it to the imperial mausoleum to re-bury it. If you are afraid of spending money from the treasury Money, I am willing to pay with my own money. Anyway, I have told you beforehand, just don’t punish me later!"
Princess Nandu's tough attitude forced the emperor to take this matter seriously.
So he called King Zhang and King Luo together to discuss.
Then the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Households calculate the expenses.
Everyone's face is full of gloom, and the treasury of the capital is empty, and there is no money to move to the grave.
Princess Nandu didn't want her plan to go to waste, so she took out all her private money, and then dragged her brother Luo Wang into the water together, or use a penny from the treasury to move her mother's grave.
If this is done, it will definitely bring a good reputation.
And Luo Wang was trying to repair his reputation, so he hit it off with his sister.
Fucheng is in the southeast of the capital, while the imperial mausoleum is in the west of the capital.
The distance between the two places is more than 80 miles, which is not very far away.
Most of the roads in the middle are flat, and there are no rebels or bandits around, so it is peaceful and safe.
But the matter of moving the grave did not go smoothly at all.
Because the tomb was destroyed by large and small robbery holes, it collapsed not long after the soil was dug.
The only fortunate thing is that the coffin of the First Empress Dowager is still intact.
However, when the coffin was lifted, the seemingly complete coffin was shattered.
King Luo thought it was the wrong day to move the grave, which disturbed his mother's undead, and kept prostrating.
Seeing this, Princess Nandu kept prostrating.
At this moment, the soldiers who lifted the coffin discovered something unusual: there were words on the inside of the coffin lid.
King Luo stepped forward and glanced at him, his legs went limp in fright, and he knelt on the ground and howled.
Princess Nandu was a little apprehensive, she didn't dare to go up to look, and kept pulling her younger brother for questioning.
"What's the matter, what are the words?"
King Luo couldn't say anything, so he asked the soldiers on the side to answer for him.
"Back to the princess, it's 'Liu Songmei kill me'."
"Who is Liu Songmei?" Princess Nandu has been away from the country for 16 years, and her impression of the people back then has long been blurred, and she can't remember it after thinking about it for a while.
King Luo couldn't remember either.
After the siblings moved the grave, they took the remains of the coffin back to the capital and handed it over to the emperor.
Who is Liu Songmei?
Few of the younger generation of officials and eunuchs know about it, they only know about Shangguan Liu.
When I went back and reported it, I realized that it was Shangguan Yuan's old lady.
Why are there words on the inner wall of the coffin?
Could it be that the first queen mother was buried alive?
What happened in Fucheng 20 years ago?
One side is the revenge of killing the mother, and the other side is the minister of the thigh.
The emperor is suffering from a headache.
We had to decree to temporarily block the news.
However, Princess Nandu refused to obey her, and the hatred of killing her mother was unshakable. Before the emperor made an order, she had already killed Liu Songmei at the emperor's feet.
Even, pre-emptively, under the guise of the emperor's order, they lured Shangguanyuan and his wife into the palace, tied them with iron chains, and intended to deal with them together.
With such a style, it cannot be said that he is not tough.
Both the emperor and Luo Wang were frightened by their sister's thunderous tactics.
Especially Luo Wang, hurriedly drew a line with his sister and went to untie Shangguanyuan and his wife in person.
Seeing that the window paper had been punctured, the emperor had no choice but to invite Huang Bozhang to try the case secretly.
Liu Songmei refused to admit that she buried the first queen mother alive, "At that time, the emperor, the princess, and the prince all saw the queen mother enter the coffin with their own eyes. Could it be that your eyes can't tell whether she was buried dead or alive? It depends on the non-existent sentence in the coffin 20 years later. talk?"
"If you didn't kill the queen mother, why would she carve those words in the coffin? It was you, you were the murderer!"
"A tomb full of robbery holes, who knows if the Empress Dowager is still lying in it after 20 years? What if the characters are forged? As we all know, the Empress Dowager is a woman of a different race. The old woman does not remember that she can write the Central Plains characters !"
"This king doesn't seem to remember that the first queen mother can write the Central Plains characters." Zhang Wang found out the doubts and asked the emperor to hand over the coffin fragments to Dali Temple for careful inspection.
This investigation turned out to be a clue.
The inner and outer coffins were tampered with beforehand, so it was a coincidence that they shattered when the coffin was raised.
But, who will be behind the scenes?
The inner and outer coffins have been replaced, so can the bones inside still belong to the first queen mother?
The emperor didn't dare to question it, and the rest of the people didn't dare to say it.
