royal palace.
His mother, who had always been strong in arranging everything for him, suddenly passed away. Liu Ying was at a loss for a while. He could only turn his attention to Luo Xin, who had always been like his father, and asked: "Prime Minister, what should I do now?"
Luo Xin gathered his thoughts, looked at Liu Ying who was a little thin, and said in a deep voice: "The Queen Mother first stopped in Weiyang Palace, and then summoned the ministers to announce the matter. There are still many things to be dealt with in the follow-up, so everything must be done quickly. .”
Liu Ying responded. Luo Xin looked up at the bright moon in the sky and said softly: "Your Majesty, please go back to Changle Palace to rest first. You will meet with the ministers tomorrow. You must stay in good condition. I will keep vigil for the Empress Dowager in Weiyang Palace tonight. .”
Liu Ying wanted to speak, but Luo Xin came closer and gently smoothed the wrinkles of his robe on his shoulders, saying softly: "Your Majesty, I know that you are sad in your heart, but you are obedient.
You are the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and your body is the most important thing.
There are a lot of things to do tomorrow. Your health has never been good. Although I am old, I am a warrior who can go into battle and can still hold on. "
Listening to Luo Xin's warm words, Liu Ying's eyes turned red again. She held Luo Xin's hand and said, "Prime Minister, I..."
Liu Ying returned to Changle Palace, and Luo Xin turned around and entered Weiyang Palace. Lu Pheasant's coffin was placed in it. The breeze gently moved the curtains. There were basically no oil lamps in this hall. Only when you walked to the innermost room could you find it. There is an oil lamp lit.
Luo Xin had just leaned against the corridor pillar when he heard the sound of very rapid footsteps. He looked up and saw that it was Liu Le who had left and returned. When he summoned the ministers to announce the edict, he was the only one left by Lu Pheasant. One of the two children, Liu Le, naturally came to the palace as well.
Luo Xin asked: "Ale, why didn't you return to the house?"
Liu Le came to Luo Xin and said sadly: "My beloved, I am really in inexplicable grief. Please let me accompany you to guard the funeral of your mother."
Luo Xin gently stroked Liu Le and said softly: "Be obedient, go back first.
The Queen Mother's coffin will remain in the coffin for many days, and there will be a day for you to keep vigil. You have many things to attend to tomorrow, so take a good rest first. I am here. "
The sound of sobbing gradually came out in Weiyang Palace.
As the news of Lu Fei's death spread, the entire Chang'an City seemed to have been pressed on the pause button. She had been the real regent for more than ten years, and her influence in Chang'an City was not even as good as that of Liu Bang.
The next day.
The ministers all wore court uniforms, took off all decorations, and gathered towards the palace with solemn expressions.
On the road, people kept asking the leaders of their factions about what happened in the palace last night, and then they got the news that Luo Xin was appointed to assist the government and had the power of life and death.
Many people suddenly felt a chill in their hearts, knowing that the current high-pressure days may continue.
With the emperor's kind temperament and his affection and trust in Luo Xin, Luo Xin will still hold the power, and they will still have to keep their tail between their legs.
Today should be the most complete visit of court officials. Whether they are serving in the court or not, they all came to the palace. They walked into the palace and walked along the wide square towards the main hall. Then they saw at a glance the people standing on the steps. The prime minister at the highest level - Luo Xin.
Luo Xin changed his usual dress, wearing full armor and a sharp sword on his waist, and was looking at the ministers coming towards the hall.
"The Prime Minister is well!"
"Hello Dong'ahou!"
The ministers saluted Luo Xin one after another, and Luo Xin bowed slightly.
"Clang clang clang!"
The ministers sat down in the main hall. Luo Xin walked to Liu Ying with his sword in hand, and then faced the ministers with an indifferent expression on his face.
[An assistant regent has appeared in your family. He has the de facto regent status. This is the fourth official regent for your family and will be recorded in the history books. The prestige of your family has been improved again. You get With 5,000 luck points, his life trajectory will be recorded, and your family's political reputation will be greatly affected by his actions, and will be calculated in addition to the head of the family. 】
Ji Zhao looked at this scene, his expression suddenly a little dazed. He remembered that he once held the sword like this, accepted his brother's edict, stood beside King Kang, and all the princes in the world surrendered to him.
"Awesome Bangzhou!"
Ji Lingjun asked curiously: "Ancestor, was this how you, Duke Wen, and Duke Xuan took charge of regents of the country back then?"
Ji Zhao smiled and said: "Yes, Ah Xin can't do it yet, but he is not far away from being the general regent of state affairs, and he still has Luo Ling to support him.
It was the most difficult thing for Acheng back then. His family's foundation was not yet so strong, and the Luo Kingdom was not as strong as it was later. He went beyond the limits and used his wisdom to reach countless compromises before he was finally able to prosper Bangzhou.
Let's see Ah Xin do this. "
"How great is Yinhan, the regent empress dowager Bintian!"
The ministers were silent, and only Luo Xin's voice resounded in the hall, "The Queen Mother is bound to heaven, and her achievements are unparalleled. If you don't declare it, it's not enough to convince people, and if you don't praise it, it's not enough to determine the family relationship. The ministers should discuss the posthumous title to highlight the Queen Mother." Merit.”
Posthumous title!
Since ancient times, there have been very few women who have received posthumous titles, but with Lu Pheasant's achievements, it is certainly appropriate to receive the posthumous title.
The best posthumous title is of course Wenwu. Starting from Xuan Gong, this posthumous title is second only to Wenwu.
Wu is definitely inappropriate, that is Wen, or Xuan, this is what most people think.
“Although Wen Xuan is respected, it is not suitable for the Queen Mother.
As the sun and moon shine together in the sky, there should also be two saints on the earth. Emperor Taizu Gao's posthumous title is Gao, and the Queen Mother should also be given the posthumous title Gao and be called 'Queen Gao'.
What do you think? "
What do you think?
You’ve said that, what else can we say?
Moreover, what Lu Pheasant has done over the years is indeed that of a sage king. The ministers all said: "What the Prime Minister said is absolutely true. The Queen Mother should be given the posthumous title of 'Gao' to demonstrate the Queen Mother's merits."
This was Luo Xin's test of the obedience of the courtiers. He wanted to see if these courtiers had other thoughts after the death of the Queen Mother. So far, it seemed that there was no problem. Then he asked another question, "The Queen Mother If someone dies, how should they be buried and where should they be buried?"
This question confused all the courtiers. Of course, she was buried with empress etiquette and buried with the late emperor.
After someone asked the question, Luo Xin said solemnly: "Queen Gao was the first queen in history, and she was also the regent. She was called me, her death was Beng, and her posthumous title was Gao.
If she is buried according to the etiquette of ordinary queens, will this show the dignity of the queen? Could this demonstrate the lofty status of Empress Gao and Emperor Gao as two saints?
This is really inappropriate and the ministers should discuss it again! "
Luo Xin's words were like a storm, sweeping through the hall in an instant. No one believed that Luo Xin did this simply for the Queen Mother's posthumous reputation. Everyone was thinking about the political implications.
It is very important to suppress Liu Bang's political status and improve Lu Pheasant's political status, because the source of Luo Xin's power is Lu Pheasant, which has nothing to do with Liu Bang.
No matter how high Luo's reputation is and how powerful it is, as long as it cannot completely suppress the world, it still needs to do things according to some rules.
Luo's greatest advantage is that he can ignore many unspoken rules, and in many cases at least be able to exit the game with dignity without incurring any fatal consequences.
Liu Ying saw that the ministers were talking about each other and said directly: "Prime Minister, I think it is better to bury the queen directly with the rites of the emperor, call me, die on the day of death, and bury her in a mausoleum. This will be enough to make the queen noble.
What do you think? "
This was the only way. Anyway, he had obtained the status of false emperor during his lifetime and was buried with the emperor's etiquette after his death. Although the officials were a little shocked, they did not find it difficult to accept. After all, Lu Fei was the queen mother and a member of the royal family.
Luo Xin's expression relaxed slightly. In fact, this was also what Lu Pheasant wanted. She didn't want to be buried with Liu Bang, both out of personal feelings and because of personal needs.
She wants an imperial mausoleum!
Luo Xin agreed to this request, but he didn't expect Liu Ying to propose it directly.
Once these two major events were over, what was left was the emperor who took charge after the death of the regent empress dowager.
Although there was still an auxiliary minister with great prestige and power, Liu Ying finally became the real emperor. All the ministers looked at him with burning eyes, especially the second generation Liu Hou, whose eyes were full of fire.
How prominent the Lu family was back then as a relative, and now it is finally the Zhang family's turn.
A queen!
Even when the five generations of Prime Ministers of Korea were in Korea, they had never been so prominent. Although Dong'ahou had great power, he was getting older after all, and the queen was still very young. As long as Dong'ahou died, the most prominent person in the court would be Zhang. ’s.
Liu Ying looked at the officials with fiery eyes, then at Luo Xin beside her, and said loudly: "Queen Bintian, the Queen Mother, has left an imperial edict to Prime Minister Dong'ahou to assist the government.
When I was young, Dong'ahou saved me from thousands of armies. Later, my mother used this merit to make Dong'ahou a marquis.
From childhood to now, it has been Dong Ahou who has been teaching me. He taught me to govern the country, to love the people, to be close to my clan relatives, and to reward meritorious officials. He worked hard for my country, and he treated me like My parents love their son, I really don’t know how to repay him.
The Queen Mother bestowed upon Dong'ahou the honor of paying homage to others, entering the court without any hesitation, and ascending to the palace with swords and shoes. What I can bestow upon Dong'ahou is the position of prime minister, and enable him to wear a golden ribbon with a golden seal and call him prime minister.
Then give the prime minister Jiuxi, who will go out to police and enter the country.
Except for me, everyone in the world should salute Dong Ahou when they see him, even the queen is no exception. "
Wow!
The main hall suddenly became noisy, with nine tins added, policemen coming and going, plus praises and worship without name, entering the court without following, and going to the hall with swords and shoes. What is the difference between this and the emperor?
————
When the emperor passed away, Xiaohui was very close to Xin, and he acted like his father, so he gave Xin Jiuxi, a policeman and a soldier.
The ministers admonished him, but Xiaohui was displeased and said: "I sigh, my mother has given me the title of my father to praise and worship, but I will not go to court. I will go to the palace with swords and shoes. I have given nine tins to go out and guard and come in. It is not enough to express my feelings." .
Gao Di, who gave birth to me, and my father-in-law, who raised me, don’t say anything more. "——"Historical Records: Dong'ahou Family"
