Chapter 523: Queen Mother Wu, a blood heir!
The sky gradually turned white, and as the morning fog dispersed, the distant team gradually came into view.

The queen's phoenix carriage is hung with white silk and wrapped with plain white ribbons, giving off a different kind of solemnity under the winter sunshine.

The main color of the phoenix car is vermilion, and the phoenix is ​​decorated with gold lacquer and spreads its wings, symbolizing the supreme imperial power and the majesty of the motherly world.

However, at this moment, these gold ornaments, against the backdrop of white, are a little less luxurious than in the past, and a little more calm and solemn.

Through the gently swaying curtains of the carriage, one can vaguely see the figures of the Queen Mother and the Empress.

Outside Fengluan, Liu Chan saluted the Empress Dowager Wu who was driving in the car and said, "My son, I pay homage to the Empress."

After a while, Wu's faint voice came from Feng Luan.

"Since the new emperor came to the throne, he has worked hard and devoted himself to filial piety. Now that the late emperor has done something great, the new emperor is devastated, but he is still able to restrain himself and serve the public, and manage the funeral in an orderly manner, which is really commendable.

This palace observes the behavior of the new monarch. His filial piety is commendable. Everything is handled properly. He is worthy of being the heir of the late emperor and the pillar of the royal family. When the country is handed over to the new monarch, the emperor Daxing will be relieved and the people of the world will be at ease. "

The Fuwei Holy Dynasty governed the world with filial piety.

Liu Chan welcomed the Queen Mother outside Chang'an City, naturally to show his filial piety and calm people's hearts.

Mrs. Wu is a daughter of a well-established family and has been in a high position for a long time, so she naturally understands the twists and turns involved.

Although I felt sad at the moment, I also cooperated with Liu Chan skillfully.

Sure enough, after she finished speaking, all the ministers expressed their admiration for the new king's filial piety and ability, and felt even more respect in their hearts.

Afterwards, Liu Chan performed a tacit understanding with the Queen Mother, Mrs. Wu, and then took the imperial chariot and headed towards the palace.

The emperor's chariot headed towards Weiyang Palace, while the Queen Mother and her entourage headed towards Changle Palace.

After several months of repairs, the palace in Chang'an was finally habitable.

But it is only enough to accommodate people. To say how luxurious it is, there is no such thing as luxury.

The Queen Mother and her entourage settled in Changle Palace, rested and tidied up, and then went to the side hall of Weiyang Palace, where Liu Bei was currently staying in the Zi Palace, to pay filial piety.

All the girls cried together, including the babies in their arms.

The scene was almost out of control for a while.

After crying, all the girls returned to their respective halls to rest.

Queen Mother Wu stepped forward to find Liu Chan.

"Your Majesty." The Queen Mother called Liu Chan softly.

At this moment, Wu's face looked like a pear blossom with rain in it, and her eyes were swollen from crying.

Wearing filial piety clothes, she stepped forward and said to Liu Chan: "Weiyang Palace is the imperial palace, and it is also where state affairs are handled. Emperor Daxing's Zi Palace cannot stay here for a long time. Although His Majesty is full of filial piety, he cannot spend all day doing so. Deeply sad and delayed in state affairs, I asked the emperor to transport Daxing Emperor Zigong to the funeral palace outside the city for burial. "

It is definitely impossible for the stopped spirit to stay in the palace for a long time.

Taking the emperor of the Qing Dynasty as an example, after the emperor died, he first had to be laid to rest in the Qianqing Palace.

停灵时间长短不一：世祖25天、圣祖20天、世宗18天、高宗20天、仁宗18天、宣宗18天、文宗11天、穆宗17天、德宗11天。

After the funeral, the coffin is moved to the funeral palace.

Each emperor chose different funeral palaces, most of which were the Shouhuang Hall or Guande Hall in Jingshan.

Parking time in the funeral palace is longer: Sejo 2 years and 2 months, Seongjo nearly 4 months, Sejong 1 month, Gojong more than 6 months, Injong 6 months, Xuanzong 10 and a half months, Munjong 1 year, Mujong 10 Three and a half months, Dezong four and a half months.

After parking in the funeral palace, move the coffin to the mausoleum. It will be parked in the mausoleum for a period of time: in most cases it is several years, in some cases it is only a few days, such as Gaozong for 10 days, Renzong for 7 days, and Mu Zongzigong for nearly 5 years.

In short, after the Qing Dynasty emperor died, it basically took several months or even years before he was buried in the ground.

In the Han Dynasty, the rules were similar.

Because Liu Bei's mausoleum has not yet been built, he will have to remain dormant for a longer period of time, at least a few years, or even more than ten years.

After all, the emperor's mausoleum is not so easy to repair.

This was especially true during the Han Dynasty when the custom of lavish burials was prevalent.

just
Emperor Daxing's Zi Palace has been kept in the palace, which actually delays things. If it is kept in the Weiyang Palace, then do we still need to do state affairs?
When officials go to Weiyang Palace to attend court, do they always have to pay homage to Emperor Daxing first?
People inside and outside the palace have to suppress their laughter all the time. Who dares to laugh out loud? Is that disrespectful to the Daxing Emperor?

Once this happens, will he be severely punished and sent to prison?

It's fine for a short time, but wouldn't it be suffocating for a long time?
"What the Queen Mother said makes sense. I will send the Daxing Emperor Zi Gong to the funeral palace outside the city when the time comes."

Liu Chan could not say this to send Liu Bei's Zi Palace outside the city, and it was difficult for his ministers to say this, but it was very appropriate for the Queen Mother to say this.

With the Queen Mother, Mrs. Wu, cooperating with him, many things can be progressed steadily.

"I have also read the "Final Letter" written by the emperor. It is indeed a policy that benefits the country and the people. I believe that if thin burials are to be implemented, it must be initiated by Emperor Daxing.

When the late emperor was in power, he repeatedly talked about the advantages of a small burial and the disadvantages of a thick burial.

Said: "Those who bury their husbands sparingly will be frugal and love others, not taking away farming time or consuming people's wealth. Therefore, they can make the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country will prosper. If they are buried lavishly, they will have to build a lot of construction, waste money and waste people, and even breed luxury and corrupt the social atmosphere."

Your Majesty wants to show the world the importance of frugality with a sparse burial, and also to demonstrate His Majesty's love for the people.

I think this is a good move, so I will call the two uncles into the palace to discuss the matter in detail. "

Liu Chan felt happy when he heard this, but he still pretended to be embarrassed on the surface.

"The trend of thin burials should be promoted, but how can this be done starting with the great emperor?"

As a materialistic young man in the 21st century, he didn't believe anything about what happened after his death.

But just because he doesn't believe what happened behind the scenes doesn't mean that people in this era don't believe it.

Liu Chan still needs to make the necessary statement.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to say more. Emperor Daxing shows his benevolence and will definitely not do anything that wastes people's energy."

After taking a breath, the Queen Mother wiped the tears on her cheeks and said softly: "Your Majesty, it's better to go see the Queen, the prince and the princess. Emperor Daxing is guarded by me!"

Liu Chan nodded and bowed deeply to Queen Mother Wu.

Liu Chan performed this ceremony very upright, and the etiquette was just like the ones in the textbook, and then he turned around to find the queen and others.

Queen Mother Wu looked at Liu Chan's back and nodded slightly.

Wu has her own little thoughts.

As a woman, she naturally wants to find a man to rely on.

Liu Chan was not her biological son, so her position as the Queen Mother would not be stable.

But after today, Your Majesty will see her role, and her throne as Queen Mother will definitely be stable, and no one can shake it!
Jiaofang Hall.

The imperial chariot stopped outside the palace.

The main hall of Jiaofang Hall faces north and south, with double ques in front of the hall. It is very rare to have a palace in front of the palace, which is beyond the scope of ordinary palaces. It shows the high architectural standards of Jiaofangdian.

At this moment Liu Chan stepped into it.

Queen Zhang Peilan, Zhaoyi Guan Yinping, Princess Jieyu Zhurong, Rong Hua Zhenmi, beauty Sun Luyu, etc., had been waiting in the palace for a long time. When they saw Liu Chan entering, they all saluted.

"I pay my respects to Your Highness."

"I pay my respects to Your Highness."

"I pay my respects to Your Highness."

Liu Chan waved his hand gently and said: "No need to be polite, just get up."

He immediately stepped forward slowly and helped the queen up. After that, all his attention was attracted by the babies in the arms of the girls.

These children are the continuation of my Gongsi Liu’s bloodline and the motivation for my Gongsi Liu’s struggle!
