The time seemed to be elongated, and even the chiming clock in the room seemed to swing more slowly.Wen Xi turned around and pulled down the curtain on Kangxi's dragon couch, it's better not to look at these sons of yours, her nostalgic gaze swept over his wrinkled cheeks for the last time, and it turned out to be so peaceful at this moment.

"Emiang still has a son!" Yinlu said softly.

Speaking of his son, Wen Xi realized that Yinyou hadn't come yet, and couldn't help frowning: "Where's your eighteenth brother?"

Yinlu lowered his voice and said: "The eighteenth younger brother leads troops outside the Meridian Gate to guard his son."

He let out a long sigh, it's a pity that Yinzhu didn't get to see Kangxi for the last time.It's just a matter of family and life, and Yinlu can only rest assured that he can only leave it to his own brother.Putting the gate of the Forbidden City in the hands of outsiders is like giving your life to outsiders.

With the sound of trampling footsteps, Yin Li strode up to Wen Xi holding the hollow jade pillow in both hands, gasping for breath, it could be seen that he ran back quickly, he put the jade pillow with both hands and said: "Please, please Mother verification!"

Wen Xi took the jade pillow with warm tentacles, and then fell hard to the ground.There was a crisp sound when it landed on the ground, and such a priceless topaz pillow was smashed to pieces, and three volumes of yellow silk came out of the inside. Wen Xi wondered, "Why are there three edicts?"

Yinlu laughed and said: "The three edicts of the Manchu, Mongolian and Han Dynasties are the orthodox edicts!"

Yin Li leaned over and picked up the three legacy edicts, and presented them to his mother-in-law with both hands.

Wen Xi looked at Zhang Ying, Wang Hongxu, and Suo Chuo Luo Bao, who had been silent all this time, and said very politely: "Let the three great scholars verify the authenticity together!"

Yinli was taken aback.Even though they personally sent the three unsolved edicts to the past, the three of them did not refuse, and opened a volume each. It was indeed Manchurian, Mongolian and Chinese, and three edicts, but the meaning of the edicts was the same.The three looked at each other and nodded.

Zhang Ying led the way and raised his voice: "Returning to the words of the lord, the imperial edicts are written with less force because they were written by the emperor during his illness last month. The handwriting of the three imperial edicts is all written by the emperor himself, and there is absolutely no possibility of fabrication!"

Wen Xi said: "Master Zhang, please read it for me!" As she spoke, Wen Xi stepped back and knelt down.Since Wen Xi knelt down as a queen, naturally all the princes also knelt down, and Wen Xi's two sons knelt behind her.The other princes knelt down in order of seniority.

Zhang Ying is a veteran minister, but his tone of voice is not bad at all, and his pronunciation is mellow and clear: "Following the heavens, the emperor said: Never before the emperor ruled the world, respecting the ancestors of heaven and ancestors has always been the top priority. , A total of the interests of the four seas are for profit, and the heart of the world is for the heart. To protect the country before it is in danger, and to rule it before it is chaotic, work hard all night. It is a long-term national strategy, and it is close to it. Today I am seventy years old , has been in power for 61 years, thanks to the silent blessing of Tiandi Zongshe..."

The length of the edict is a bit beyond Wen Xi's imagination, and the content of the edict seems to be Kangxi constantly boasting.It's just that the prince kneeling on the ground was respectful and did not dare to make a sound.Wen Xi had no choice but to kneel upright.

Zhang Ying's voice was up and down, very fluent: "...Since ancient times, there is no one like our dynasty. Taizu and Taizong didn't have the heart to take over the world. They tasted the soldiers and the capital, and all the ministers Xianyun should take it. Emperor Taizong said: Ming Dynasty I have never been reconciled with my dynasty, and it is very easy to take it now, but I am the lord of China, and I can't bear to take it. The later thief Li Zicheng broke the capital..."

Well, after boasting about myself, I will praise my ancestors for eighteen generations!

"There are more than a hundred descendants of me. I am already seventy years old. All kings, ministers, officials, soldiers, civilians, and Mongols all cherish me. Although my old man is dying now, I am also happy! Everyone is safe now, and you will die after I die. If my children and grandchildren can live in peace, I will die happily."

After reading the imperial edict, Wen Xi couldn't help feeling sad, harmony between descendants?Kangxi's last wish cannot be fulfilled...

Zhang Ying's voice paused slightly, before he raised his voice even more: "The emperor's sixteenth son, Prince Yuan Yinlu, is also my first son, who has inherited his father's hope, excellent in both civil and military affairs, filial by nature, friendly and brotherly, and should be established as the emperor." The prince, I will inherit the throne after a hundred years. That is to say, follow the Yu system, hold the clothes for 27 days, release the clothes and announce them at home and abroad, and the salty envoys will know. Kangxi 61, October [-]th!"

After listening to the imperial edict, I'm afraid everyone's knees are sore, but this is not the end.Zhang Ying closed the edict and retreated, and then Sochao Luobao took a step forward, unfolded the edict in Manchu, babbled, and read aloud, Wenxi was proficient in Manchu, and knew that this edict and the Chinese edict had the same meaning.

After Debao read the Manchu edict and Wang Hongxu stepped forward to read the Mongolian edict again, it was already an hour after the three edicts were read out!

Yin Lu personally helped Wen Xi up, turned around and looked at the many brothers who had just stood up, raised his head and said proudly: "The three imperial edicts were all written by Huang Ama himself, brothers, there must be no objections, right? !"

Headed by the three great scholars, they hurriedly knelt down: "I (slave) greet the emperor, and the empress dowager!"

Now that everything is a foregone conclusion, naturally no one dared to raise any objections. All the brothers, including Yinzhen who was full of reluctance, all knelt down on the ground. As the head of the princes, Prince Cheng hurriedly flattered : "Since the emperor is the Ninth Five-Year Honor, please avoid the taboo and change it to the word 'Yun'!"

Yinlu smiled and said: "Third brother doesn't have to be like this. Since he is his own brother, if he changes his name, he will lose the intimacy between brothers!"

Prince Cheng showed a different stubbornness than usual, and he spoke confidently: "The emperor treats his ministers kindly, but it is an unchangeable rule to avoid the name of the emperor! Please allow the emperor!"

Yin Lu thought for a while, and looked at his own brothers. He really didn't want to change "Yin" to "Yun". In that case, shouldn't his two biological brothers also change their names?Then he said: "When Huang Kao was alive, he changed the abolished Prince Bao's name to Yinfeng, just because there are people in 'Bao' who need to change their names to avoid taboos! It's just that other people avoid taboos. It's really inappropriate to let more than a dozen brothers change their names. ! Therefore, from now on, I will change the word 'Yin' to 'Yuan'!"

"Your majesty is wise!—" Everyone shouted in unison for a while.

Wen Xi smiled helplessly, Yuan characters are not as rare as "Yin", so many people in the world want to avoid the taboo and change their names.It's just that, Yinlu... oh no, Yuanlu took the opportunity to buy a lot of people's hearts, and also left a reputation in the history books for being kind to his brothers.Since ancient times, emperors have changed their names to avoid causing too many people to shy away from taboos. It has existed since ancient times, and Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty changed his name to Liu Xun after he ascended the throne. This is also the intention.

Everything is a foregone conclusion, Wen Xi is also tired.Next, the entire Forbidden City is all white, white snow, white clothes...Wen Xi knelt in front of Kangxi's coffin, bent over again and again, her forehead touched the cold ground again and again, and the tears in her eyes flowed numbly with.She has gradually forgotten the time, until the next spring, when the emperor's nine-dragon robe was worn on Yuanlu, she was still in a dream.

"My son wants to serve the emperor as a filial piety for three years. Within three years, he will not call concubines or eat meat." said Yuan Lu, who has been enthroned as the new king.

Wen Xi nodded, "That's good, but you have to take care of your body."

"Emperor Niang should also take care of herself!" Yuan Lu looked at his emaciated Er Niang sadly.

Wen Xi smiled with difficulty, and then asked: "I heard that the fourteenth brother fell ill in the mansion, you don't allow the imperial doctor to treat him?"

There was a cold look between Yuan Lu's brows, "Yes! It's the son's will! Yinzhen suppressed the emperor's mother, causing Huang Kao and the emperor's mother to be separated. The son will never let him go! So please ask the emperor Mother, do you want to intercede for him!"

Wen Xi really didn't understand where Yuanlu's hatred for Yinzhen came from. With some memories, Wen Xi looked at the melting snow outside the hall and said, "Do you remember when you were young? When Zhen's biological mother, Concubine Concubine, was grounded, he was sent to Chengqian Palace to live in a side hall with you. When he was leaving, you held Erniang's hand and asked: "Can you not ask Fourteenth Brother to leave?" "

Wen Xi looked at her son's mature cheeks, and asked softly, "Do you remember?"

Yuan Lu's face was touched faintly, as if he was also recalling the long past, and he said after a long time: "My son knows." Immediately, Yuan Lu said: "Speaking of this Chengqian Palace, it's time for the Empress to move to the Cining Palace. The son has been repainted!"

Wen Xi really couldn't squeeze a smile on her face, she just said with melancholy all over her forehead: "Take it easy, now...very tired." My heart was really tired.

"Yes, my son understands." Yuan Lu naturally understood Er Niang's mood at this moment, and then changed the subject: "E Niang, now my son thinks it's time to choose a date to establish a queen and concubine."

Wen Xi hummed lightly, and said, "Ask Qin Tianjian to choose an auspicious day, and it's time for Yilan to be the master of the palace."

Yuan Lu frowned slightly, and said: "My son also means the same thing, but the son thinks that the treasury is not sufficient now, so he made a queen and a concubine to do it together."

Wen Xi didn't care to pay attention to these matters, and said: "You and Yilan discuss and finalize these things."

Yuan Lu twitched his cheeks slightly, as if he was a bit reluctant, and said: "Yilan also agrees to seal it together. It's just that the son should have asked the empress about the status of the other concubines."

Wen Xi said, "Then what do you and Yilan mean?"

Yuan Lu had a slight displeasure on his face, and said: "Yilan means that according to the status of the original palace, concubines will be conferred on the side of the Jin Dynasty, and concubines from the Shufu Jin Dynasty. Those who have concubines will be nobles, and the rest will be permanent and promised."

Wen Xi nodded and said: "It's very fair." Such canonization is indeed fair.

"But my son wants to make Lvtong his concubine!" Yin Lu was quite certain.

Wen Xi was taken aback for a moment, thinking of Yinlu's hatred for Yinzhen... Perhaps Lvtong's miscarriage back then was the reason why he hated him so deeply!Wen Xi thought for a while and said, "If you really like someone, don't spoil her too much! If a woman in the harem gets too much favor, it is a very dangerous thing!"

Yuanlu was silent immediately, and said after a long while: "My son understands, let's make Yierjia a concubine Wen." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is My biggest motivation.)
