Every day I just want to hold the fourth master's thigh tightly

Chapter 1762

Not long after the Fourteenth Lord went out for an expedition, in December Bingxu, the Empress Dowager died at the age of 77, and the whole country mourned.

The empress dowager's body was enshrined in a Manchurian-style "big gourd material" on that day, which is called "ascension into Zigong".

The cold wind was bitter and bleak, and there were mournful cries all around.

This was the first time that Gu Youran had witnessed a royal funeral with his own eyes.

While wiping the handkerchief with red eyes along with everyone, he looked at the coffin slightly, the appearance was solemn and solemn, and the color was solemn and majestic.

According to the system of the Qing Dynasty, the Empress Dowager’s Zigong is similar to that of the emperor and empress. Both the inner coffin and the outer coffin are set inside the outer coffin, so the volume is very large, and the height of the light is about 1.8 meters. The board is straight, and the coffin cover slopes upwards. There is a big gourd at the front end that is equal to the thickness of the coffin cover, and it is a whole board with the coffin cover.

According to the system, it was painted with beige paint, a total of 49 "Qiqi" lines, and the outside of the Empress Dowager's Zi Palace must be painted with colorful phoenixes.

Such an exquisite and solemn scene, especially the sound of mourning music and the crying around is so real, even a stranger, facing this scene, can't help but feel sad.

The tears that Gu Youran wiped just now were not fake. Being in such an environment really shocked people a lot.

The dignity of the royal family has never been pretended by money, power and gorgeous costumes. Even without these, the solemnity and solemnity alone are enough for ordinary people to look up to them.

The nobility on their bodies was cultivated bit by bit by immersing themselves in this kind of environment since they were young, and the manner in which they raised their hands and feet was much more graceful than others.

But it would be fatal to absorb this noble demeanor a little bit.

Gu Youran's legs hurt from kneeling now, but she knew that if she had to wait a long time, she could only pray that she would not sneeze or have a fever during this period, otherwise it would be a crime of disrespect.

After the Empress Dowager entered the Zi Palace, the eunuch, the head of the Rites Department, carried the Zi Palace from the Shouan Palace out of the auspicious gate in a light yellow auspicious sedan chair, and stopped at the Huangji Palace, which was the most noble place in the Qing Palace.

The empress dowager's coffin is fastened with a roll of yellow cloud satin bottom sent by Luan Yuwei, and the hall cover is embroidered with nine colorful phoenix curtains. In front of it is a coffin covered with yellow-inch python sheets, and the empress dowager stands on the bed. A huge portrait in palace attire, with cloud-headed plain curtains hanging on both sides, and a plain-coloured altar with three arches and four vertical frames.

On the spirit table, there are fragrant flowers, lamps and candles, and offerings are made widely.

The front of the hall is filled with fruit tables, pastry tables, and sacrificial banquets sent by the old princes and ministers.

On both sides of Danbi, which leads from Huangji Hall to Shouan Palace, there are palace guards of honor. In front of Shouan Gate and Huangji Gate, there are tall plain-colored archways. In front of the Nine Dragon Wall facing Huangji Gate, there are three The large banner, which is more than ten feet high, means calling back souls, and there is a Taiping pole with 64 people on the left side, which means protecting spirits.

Gu Youran knelt there, watching the eunuchs carrying the coffin and walking over slowly and steadily...

She felt like her knees were going to collapse.

Although she secretly tied a layer of cotton pads around her knees, it didn't work.

Kneeling for too long, the blood is not circulating, and her legs are already numb.

Even if she made a small move, what would happen to fourth master?

Just looking forward to it ending soon.

Young people can't hold on, let alone the old and frail Lord Kangxi.

Since then, Grandpa Kangxi has been seriously ill for more than [-] days, his feet are swollen, his body is getting worse day by day, he is coughing up blood, and his bones are so weak that he can't stand up at all.
