Nirvana In Fire

In August, for Chaoye, there were originally two extremely important days.

One is the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15 and the second is the birthday of the Emperor on August 30.

However, because of the national funeral of the Empress Dowager, all celebrations were stopped, so the former was only suspended for the holiday, the latter only received congratulatory forms from various places, and the emperor's royal harem held several small gatherings.

Although the scale of the birthday banquet is small, all the royal families and relatives still have to present the birthday ceremony as usual.

This is always when they are fighting, everyone has spent a lot of thought.

The prince gave a large screen with a ninety percent off flying needle dragon embroidery, which was ingeniously crafted and brilliantly colored. Everyone envied it when he lifted it out; King Yu didn't know where to find a piece of two people, and the natural erosion was worn into one The Taihu stone with the word "shou" is extremely beautiful, and it is also an invaluable treasure.

The other princes either sent solitary ancient books or Jasper Avalokitesvara.

The King Jing sent a Shenjun Falcon, which was very well-tuned. He stood on the Liang Emperor's arm full of energy and tilted his head to look at the Emperor, causing a burst of cheers.

Originally, Emperor Liang liked the praises of the birthday gifts he received on the surface, but because of these laughs, many people secretly saw some clues.

Because there was no music during the National Funeral, the atmosphere of the banquet was not strong after all. Although the guests tried their best to laugh, Emperor Liang's interest was not high. After receiving several rounds of toasts at Yili, he drove back to the harem.

In the Forbidden Garden, the Queen has already arranged for the Sixth Palace to wait for the banquet.

Emperor Liang had drunk a few glasses of wine in the outer hall and leaned on the soft pillow to accept the congratulations from the concubines. After feeling the soreness of the waist, he ordered the concubine to sit by the side and massage after opening. Shi closed his eyes under the hall.

Although it was the emperor's birthday, the funeral costumes were well-organized. Everyone did not dare to be vegetarian, nor did they dare to make up. They looked at a glance, unlike the flowers and flowers in previous years, colorful and gorgeous, but more elegant.

The surviving women of Zongwai's official gave a salute, and all retreated, and only Yu Gongfei was in the palace.

The queen naturally presented the wine first to congratulate her, and then the Yuegui concubine.

Because the Prince was repeatedly reprimanded, the Concubine Yue also kept a low profile in the palace.

Today, she only described Liu Mei, who had grown into a temple, never put powder on her face, and her face was pale and light, with a thin smile. Instead of the previous gorgeous and amazing, she felt more pity.

Emperor Liang took the gold cup from her ivory-like hands, took a sip, stared at her low-browed appearance, and remembered that she was only in the outer hall. The prince was also cowering, describing thinness, and his heart softened.

Although he was irritated by the Crown Prince's misbehavior, after all, the mother and son had been favored for many years and their affection remained.

What's more, now that the teeth are increasing day by day, sometimes seeing the stars on the temples, and often worrying about the twilight, after all, the mentality can't be as ruthless as it was then.

"You've lost some weight recently, but your body is unwell? You should also pass the doctor to see ..." Emperor Liang rubbed Yue Fei's shoulders and said softly, "Yeqin tribute some Luo Dai again, I will die at night Where will people send you? "

"Your Majesty." Yue Guifei's eyes were reddish, but she couldn't cry on such a day. She hurriedly endured to go back. The eyes were naturally watery and light.

Emperor Liang looked more and more loving in her heart, took her hand and let her sit on her right side, and spoke with her in a low voice.

The queen was a little sullen. She could not help but glance at the concubine who was pounding his shoulders behind the emperor's side. She saw her eyes drooping, her expression quiet, as if she didn't feel anything at all. Attention.

When I was thinking about it, I saw a few young princesses next to me, and I raised my hand quickly to signal that the girls gathered around toast.

Like the birthday feast in the outer hall, this inner feast did not last long.

After three rounds of drinking, Emperor Liang felt sleepy and ordered the queen to stop for a banquet and give out a regular reward. Then he drove back to his palace and took a rest.

Maybe it was exhaustion, maybe it was sick wine. The next day, Emperor Liang felt a bit lazy and was going to stop.

The doctor immediately came to the palace. After careful diagnosis, there was no serious illness.

Emperor Liang also felt that he was just lazy and did not feel particularly uncomfortable. He did n’t want to move too much. The ruling ordered the royal court officials not to go to the palace to ask about illness. They took medicine and slept for a few hours. Feeling cooler.

Although his physical condition improved, Emperor Liang still did not want to deal with political affairs. After reading a few pages of idle books, he suddenly remembered that the mother and son of Yue Fei were haggard yesterday. As soon as they moved, they immediately summoned Gao Zhan and asked him to arrange a car drive. To show gratitude.

The emperor said that he wanted to go "quietly". Of course, it could not be reported in advance. Gao Zhan only notified the forbidden army commander to arrange his defense. The emperor and his party did not promote the teachers and moved the crowd. The high-walled corridor between the palace and Donggong came to the gate of Donggong quickly and quietly.

The holy car suddenly came, and the people on duty in front of the gate of the East Palace panicked, kneeling on the ground.

Because Emperor Liang had arrived, everyone was busy saluting, and no one dared to get up and run towards it at this time, and no one came in to know the prince.

"What is the Prince doing?" Liang Di asked casually.

A person dressed in the historical costume of Liupin replied tremblingly, "Hui ... Hui, Majesty, the Crown Prince is in, in ... in ..."

"Nonsense! Where would it be without it? I asked him what he was doing inside!"

"Go back, Your Majesty ... The minions are not, don't know ..."

Gao Zhan saw that his response was really inconsistent, and he quickly diverted: "Your Majesty, let them inform the Crown Prince to come down and pick you up?"

Emperor Liang "huh" gave a cry.

Gao Zhan pointed his finger at the history that he just answered and whispered, "Not yet!"

Naishi shook his head and ran up to run because of the panic. He accidentally stepped on his robe when going down the stairs, slammed a dog to eat shit, and was too busy to get up and run, seeing that posture is really like Rolling with crawl.

Emperor Liang saw him in a state of embarrassment in the back, and couldn't help laughing, but just laughed twice, and he suddenly became suspicious.

In the history, he knew about it and often served beside the prince. Although his grade was not high, he was not a newcomer who had never seen a driver. Even if he had an accident today, he would not be scared and panicked like this ... …

"Call the man back!"

Gao Zhan ordered the **** to chase back the history and brought him to kneel in front of Emperor Liang to wait for inquiry.

"You just said ... you don't know what the prince is doing?"

The inner history curled up in a huddle, daring to raise his head while lying on the ground, trembling: "The slave is not ... not sure ..."

Emperor Liang's eyes gloomed over his face for a moment, and said coldly: "Everyone kneels here for me, no notification, no action.

Sincerely, Gao Zhan, you go in with me! "

"Yes."

After bowing to life, Gao Zhan felt a little uneasy.

Although he did n’t know what was going on in the palace, he always felt right, afraid of making troubles, and quietly glanced at his sincerely, trying to see what he meant, but he did n’t expect that there was no obvious expression on his face, but Head down silently.

He had no choice but to bend his body even lower, and walked in a small step with Liang Di, who was walking faster and faster.

Although the Donggong regulation is no better than the uterus city, it is the residence of Chu Jun after all.

There is still a short distance from the main entrance to the Changxin Hall, where the prince lives daily.

Emperor Liang Shi suspected that the prince was not doing right in his palace at this moment, and he was unhappy, so he decided to go in secret and see for himself, but after all, he was old and he was a little short of breath.

Gao Zhan is the most saintly. He has already made preparations in advance. With a wave of his hand, the six people who have been following him have stepped forward.

Emperor Liang supported Nei Shi's hands and walked around. He moved almost twice faster than himself.

Going in this way, of course, I met a lot of Donggong people along the way. Although these people did not know the situation, they still understood the gestures that made them silent. They knelt down on the side of the road and no one dared to move.

After the wall of the Ming Hall, turn to Yongfeng Pavilion, and then the Changxin Hall.

Emperor Liang walked around, just stepped on the all-wood pavilion, and heard the sound of silk and bamboo music inside, suddenly furious, and his pace accelerated.

Music is banned nationwide during the national funeral, which is a ceremonial system.

It was only that the three-year filial piety period was longer. In the later years, many people in the civil society began to violate the system quietly. As long as it was not overtly disclosed and reported by others, the imperial court mostly closed its eyes.

But the prince is not the same as ordinary people after all. First, he was the crown prince, and secondly, the descendant of the empress dowager, and the filial piety of the country ’s filial piety was carried on two floors. Moreover, it is not in the late mourning period. It's really against the extremes to start performing music.

However, to say that the prince did not know that performing music at this time is of course not, but he has always been used to enjoyment, and ca n’t bear the silence of the funeral period. Recently, he has been depressed and depressed, and ca n’t help but want to solve the boredom. The doors and windows of the temple are quietly playing in it, and it is impossible for the Higashi Gongsuke Yu Shiyan to know it.

As for the sudden arrival of the Father and Emperor, he had never thought of it because it had never happened before.

Emperor Liang stood for a while in front of the closed hall door under the gallery, and heard his music deliberately lowered, and his face was very ugly.

But at this time, he still had some reason in his mind, knowing that if he broke in like this, the prince ’s accusation of playing filial piety during the funeral period would be justified. For the girders who have always advertised filial piety to govern the country, this is not a problem. Minor sins are enough to overthrow all the deceased prince's already weak names. At that time, not only a waste word will be in front of me, but I am afraid that a large number of people related to the East Palace will also follow.

To take a step back, even now that the prince has been obsolete and no longer has pity, Emperor Liang still wants to do this slowly, and does not want an unexpected incident to become the origin of the abode.

Thinking of this, Emperor Liang forbeared the anger in his heart without speaking, turned around with a black face, and was about to leave quietly, and suddenly there was a voice of speech.

"Your Highness ... have another drink ... Your Majesty has a problem, I won't call your Highness again today, and it's okay to be drunk ..."

After the soft and charming words, the prince sneered, "Even if the father and the emperor are fine, he will not call me.

In addition to the honorary king, who else is in the eyes of the father and emperor? "

"How can your Highness say this, you are the prince of the dynasty, the future emperor, your majesty's eyes, of course, you should be the only one ..."

"Forget it, I've seen it long ago. The father and emperor are ruthless and suspicious. They always scold me for not practicing moral politics ... He doesn't want to think about it. If he helped a good reputation king to do right with me, why should I do those things? ... My virtue is not good, is the virtue of the father and emperor good enough? "The prince said this, laughing loudly again, followed by the sound of swallowing and throwing glasses.

Emperor Liang looked pale, and his whole body shivered like chaff.

Gao Zhan walked closer, reaching out to reach him, but was pushed away violently and almost fell to the ground.

Emperor Liang didn't even look at him. He rushed down the steps a few steps, pulled a long knife from Meng Zhi's waist, turned and rushed back.

Gao Zhan's face was pale with fright, and he embraced Emperor Liang's thigh in a few steps, crying in a small voice: "Your Majesty think twice! Your Majesty think twice!"

In fact, Emperor Liang was only angrily, and he didn't know what he wanted to do. Just as he rushed to the closed gate of the temple, the man felt dazed again, and then he waved his blade back and slashed hard. Then he threw the knife fiercely on the ground, and turned and walked away.

The prince in the hall was shocked by this movement, and when he stepped out to see it, he only glanced at the corner of Liang Di's yellow robe disappearing outside the door of the outer hall. , The head buzzed, the bones all over the body seemed to be pumped away at once, and the whole person collapsed to the ground.
