beautiful heart

Chapter 184

On February 27th, the sixth year of Datong, Nangongling passed away at Choushi. He was put into the coffin at Yinshi, and was carried to the Hall of Longevity at Maoshi to be parked. Arrived at Tranquility Palace, just in time to carry the coffin.

Because Shui Jialing had already made preparations, the whole process went smoothly. The upper and lower parts of the palace turned white instantly. When the coffin was carried to the Hall of Eternal Life, all the officials were already kneeling outside the hall in sackcloth and filial piety. After the mourning hall, the ceremony begins, and the day of burial is not counted until the ceremony is completed.

According to Nangong Ling's birthday horoscope and the birthday horoscope when he left, the host calculated that the burial can be done on the [-]th day and the first day of the new year. Beishan Ming sat on the side without energy, and I am afraid that he would not answer the question.

Bei Shanding then turned his head to discuss with Shui Jialing and the others. They all had the same thoughts. They hoped that they could stop for one more day, so they chose the day to be the first day of March. The day after everything was finalized was already bright.

After working for half the night, all the people present were already hungry. Shui Jialing hurriedly asked the imperial dining room to make a meal and everyone must have a share. But during the national funeral, there will be no meat, not even a little bit of lard. This is here one of the customs.

National mourning is only enjoyed by the emperor's immediate family members and ministers with outstanding military exploits. It generally refers to the period from death to burial and the first seven days. During this period, the whole country is not allowed to eat meat or play music to express mourning.

Beishan Ding's past life and this life combined did not kneel so much today. Although his health is better than ordinary people, he started to feel uncomfortable after kneeling for two hours in a row. After seeing Shui Jialing's condition, it is not that good, "Jia Ling, go and see why the baby hasn't come yet."

It stands to reason that the baby should come as soon as Nangongling leaves, but Beishan definitely doesn't want to wake her up in the middle of the night. First, the child should sleep well. Second, since she and Shui Jialing are here, no one will disturb her. But now It's dawn and you should wake up.

"That's okay" Honghua and Xiaodongzi can definitely let Honghua and Xiaodongzi go, but Bei Shanding let her go, obviously wanting her to get up and walk comfortably, Shui Jialing didn't delay, so she got up and went out after saying goodbye up.

But as soon as Shui Jialing walked out of the hall, she saw the baby, and the baby also saw her and quickly walked forward, "The sons and ministers see the queen mother", Shao Fu said that there are outsiders who must salute in a proper manner, otherwise the father And the queen will be unhappy, the baby will always remember.

Shui Jialing stepped forward to help the baby up, "When you go in later, baby, don't talk nonsense, you can do what your father and I do, you know?" The baby's eyes seemed to be a bit like her own, watery.

"I know." Although the baby didn't know why the queen mother said these things to her, she still understood and knew that the matter was very important. After following the mother queen, she did not say a word. When she saw the adults kneeling, she also knelt down. , See adults worship her also worship.

After another ceremony, the breakfast in the imperial dining room also came. Steamed buns, porridge and a plate of small vegetarian dishes are very nutritious and light. The baby worked hard to finish his share, because the father said that growing food is very hard work It cannot be wasted.

Kitayama has always been very frugal. He sometimes even ran out of food after five years of fighting abroad. He can bear it if he doesn’t eat, but he is really anxious when he sees that the soldiers have no food to eat, and he also understands the importance of food.

Once I saw half a bowl of rice left in the baby's bowl, she just thought it was the first time, who knew that it would be like this for a few days, and she asked Mingyan to ask that even the lunch was like this, and she realized the matter seriousness.

When the baby had leftovers again, Beishan Ding finally opened his mouth. After some persuasion, he quickly found out the reason, and started a series of stories about the problem. It was nothing more than telling her that growing food is very hard, and even the most famous "" The poem "Hoe Wo" has been moved out.

Fortunately, the baby is a smart child, and he quickly understood the meaning of Beishan's order. Since then, he has never had any leftovers, and he has completely followed Beishan's order to eat and serve.

Why didn't Beishanming and the others stop this matter, because Beishanming and Nangong Ling lived in the deep palace for a long time, and half a bowl of rice was just a trivial matter. As for Shui Jialing, she had never suffered since she was a child, so she naturally wouldn't care about such a trivial matter, let alone wasting half a bowl Compared with her brothers, Fan is just a drop in the bucket.

So regarding this matter, Beishan Ding was pulled out by Beishan Ming for a while, saying that although it is good to be frugal, but after all, the baby may be able to finish the half bowl of rice that day, and there is no shortage of that in the palace.

Beishan will not refute. From the beginning to the end, she knows that Beishan Ming's identity and background determine that she will not value the half bowl of rice. How important is food.

What's more, as the saying goes, from childhood to adulthood, the baby is only wasting half a bowl of rice now, but when he grows up, the waste may be upgraded to money, and if he becomes emperor in the future, the waste may be national finances.

Finance is the lifeblood of a country. If a country loses all its money, then the country is not far away from the day of extinction. Although this is the most serious conjecture, it is not impossible. In order to prevent such things from happening, Beishan The baby must be corrected.

Fortunately, the baby did not disappoint her. After half a month of being told, the baby finally had no leftovers. Basically, he could eat as much as he could. If he really couldn’t eat, he would ask Bei Shanding for help.

On the first day of March, when Nangong Ling was buried in the imperial tomb, Bei Shanding, Shui Jialing and the others could finally have a good rest. The two of them hadn't had a full sleep in the past few days. They slept from the afternoon of that day to the next day. Morning.

Worried that Beishan Ming would be too sad, Beishan Ding came together and went to the Tranquility Palace. Seeing that Beishan Ming was still as listless as the previous few days, he didn't even notice her coming. He told the people below to take good care of him and reported to the imperial study immediately. .

I haven’t dealt with the memorials during the national mourning period. They must have been piled up very high. When I went to the Imperial Study Room, I saw that it was really high. I didn’t get up until evening to go to the Imperial Fragrance Hall for dinner. I thought that Beishan Ming would not come, but she did. Be the first to arrive.

Life and death are the laws of nature, I hope she can figure it out sooner, that is to say, but as soon as she thinks that she and Shui Jialing may be like this in the future, Beishan will feel chills on her back and her limbs will be cold. She has never been clinging to Shui Jialing , and will not see her all the time.

Just because I knew where she was, I felt at ease.Not to mention Shui Jialing, sometimes Bei Shanding suspects that she loves medicine and those flowers more than her, but he just thinks about it, because she trusts Shui Jialing unconditionally.

The next morning, the issue of postponement for one day was finally brought up. The implementation of the Three Books and Six Parts System was imperative. Kitayama decided to check a few officials at random, and they generally understood it, so they began to reappoint officials.

Duan Min was appointed as Shangshu Pavilion, Shi Yi was appointed as Zhongshu Pavilion and the capital of the military government, Xu Fang was appointed as Xiashu Pavilion, Li Qing was appointed as Minister of the Clan House, and He Xiu was appointed as Weiwei in charge Guard the palace.Yang Yong served as Minister of War, Liu Xuan served as Minister of Rites, and Wen Tong served as military assistant.

The rest of the people, such as Kitayama Ding, have also re-appointed official positions according to their respective directors. Those who can come to the court are of the fourth rank and above, but the total number of civil and military officials in the court is 120. There are so many talents, why worry about the country not prospering not prosperous.

Duan Min, who had been standing at the forefront of Beishan Ding's left hand, wanted to take out the memorial from his sleeve several times, but failed. Finally, seeing that Beishan Ding was about to retreat, he took it out vigorously and presented it up.

Beishan must have thought that Duan Min had some important matter or suggestion, and quickly asked Honghua to bring up the memorial, but after reading it, his expression was very bad, and the ministers present did not even dare to breathe, "Why did Aiqing leave me? Qing thinks that I can only share adversity but not happiness?".

The other ministers all looked at Duan Min in surprise when they heard the words. He chose to retreat bravely when he was about to show off his ambitions. What's the reason for this?Is it because of a physical illness? It's impossible. Isn't the serious injury already healed?

"Your Majesty calm down, I know that Your Majesty loves you deeply, and I also know that Your Majesty is benevolent and generous. However, the height of the temple is not what I wish. Now that the world is peaceful, I have no need to stay. I implore Your Majesty to fulfill the joy of loving only mountains and rivers." Duan Min wanted to leave a long time ago, but it was only delayed until now because of Nangong Ling's death.

The entire court was silent, and Bei Shanding looked at Duan Min who was kneeling below, motionless. She had thought of this situation when she asked Duan Min to come out of the mountain, but she did not expect it to happen. She is not Liu Bang or Zhu Yuanzhang, she is not She can kill ministers with meritorious service, but it seems that she still can't keep Duan Min.

"I implore Your Majesty, I will be grateful." Duan Min knew that Beishan was looking at her, but she had already made up her mind to go. Even if Beishan didn't agree, she would leave, but she still hoped that Beishan would agree and let her go freely. Pity.

"That's all, I will play, but Aiqing must agree to two conditions." Bei Shanding has always known that Duan Min is a wise and firm person. Once a decision is made, no one can change it. The righteousness of a monarch and his ministers will disappear in smoke.

Duan Min had already expected that Beishan would have a follower, and was not surprised at all, "Your Majesty, please tell me", Beishan must be a benevolent king, and she believed that Beishan would not let her do murder and arson.

"First, I will reserve the title for you. If your children want to inherit it in the future, you can inherit it; second, stay in the capital for another five days, and leave after the first seven days after my mother. What does Ai Qing think?" I really wanted to leave as soon as Duan Min did, but unfortunately she couldn't.

"Everything is as His Majesty wishes" She will never have children in her whole life, she will be useless in the end, since Beishan must stay, let's stay, death is the worst thing, besides, she should really wait until the first seven days before leaving.

"Back to court" saw that Beishan Ding had got up and left Honghua and hurriedly yelled and followed. The ministers looked at each other and finally sent a few representatives to ask Duan Min why he decided to leave. After all, Duan Min has always been in their hearts. It is an amazing existence.

"My lords don't need to be sad, we will meet again if we have a destiny, let's take a step forward" I have worked with these people for so long, I know everyone I should know, they are reluctant to give up but she has to leave, everyone has a life they want to live, She is now off to chase her dreams.

Seeing Duan Min leave Shi Yi quickly followed, she has been fooled until now, because she always thought that Duan Min would work with her till old age, but now she is going to leave after a few days of stability, she really not understand.

Chasing Duan Min is just a bunch of questions, it doesn't matter whether the other party answers or not, and no matter how unwilling the other party is, how stinky his face is, anyway, he has seen even more stinky faces, this can't stop Shi Yi's curiosity at all.

Seeing that he was about to reach a gate, he happened to see a flock of birds flying by, so he pointed to the birds and said, "Zifei is not a bird, but you know the joy of birds." Shi Yi didn't understand what it meant at all, until the birds flew away, she still Stand there thinking.
