At the end of Song Dynasty: I want to be the master of ZTE

Chapter 279 Nine Years
Before we knew it, it was the end of the year again.

The snowflakes outside could freeze someone to death, but it was still very warm inside the palace.

The scale of the building is small, even shabby, but there are still earth dragons.

The coals were lit day and night, and the temperature in the palace was constant at twenty degrees, but it was not considered a luxury.

With the large-scale mining of coal mines in various places, coal prices have dropped significantly. Metallurgy has benefited from this, and the private sector has also benefited.

Going around Chengtian Mansion, every household has its chimney exposed.

The thick black smoke means that the fire has just been lit, and the light white smoke means that the fire has already started. Some people also knocked on the door of their neighbor's house, took out red coals and went home to start the fire.

Due to the large-scale use of coal, Chengtian Mansion has no woodcutter, and the charcoal burners supply charcoal to dignitaries, and their income is much higher.

While the emperor was teasing his daughters, Wen Daosheng came in and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager suddenly fell into a coma."

"Here, let's get started." Zhao Shi handed his daughter over to the children, turned around and went out.

Since returning to China, Xie Daoqing made a trip to Lin'an to offer sacrifices to Li Zong, and never left the palace, let alone made friends with ministers, which was very worry-free.

And as a grandson, Zhao should also fulfill his filial piety.

When they arrived at the palace gate, Zhao Bing was already waiting.

"Greetings to Your Majesty." Zhao Bing was very relaxed, without any trace of sadness or anxiety.

In fact, it's normal, after all, there is no emotion.

Zhao Shi patted him and said, "Don't do this. After all, it was the Empress Dowager and my brother who came from Lin'an. Otherwise, how would we be today?"

"Your Majesty taught you a lesson, I will remember it." Zhao Bing became serious.

Entering the palace, Xie Daoqing was still in a coma, and Quan was feeding medicine, but not much came out.

Zhu Ming bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the time has come and I have no way to save myself."

It is really tragic to say that in the past, a noble concubine died in childbirth, both mother and child died, and in the later period, the empress dowager suddenly fell into coma without any medical treatment. If it were in other dynasties, the ninth clan would have been killed.

"Do your best to follow the destiny, and the doctors are innocent." Zhao Shi waved Zhu Ming to step down, and stepped forward, "Little mother, let me do it."

Quan handed over the medicine bowl and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it won't work."

Zhao Shi didn't speak, he scooped up the medicine in the medicine spoon, swung it lightly, and just handed it out, Xie Dao was sober.

"Brother is here?" Xie Daoqing looked pleased.

"Mother, my grandson is here, and so is my third brother," Zhao Shi said.

Zhao Bing stepped forward quickly.

"It's great that brothers and sisters are respectful. I'm so lucky to have a big brother in my country." Xie Daoqing took a breath and continued: "I only regret that I was blind and deaf and couldn't establish a big brother early."

Seeing the current situation, anyone with a little bit of patriotism will definitely feel resentful about whether he established a direct lineage or not. As Xie Daoqing, who has the final decision-making power, he should reflect on it the most.

"It's not too late now. When I meet the official, I can talk about it calmly." Xie Daoqing said.

Zhao Shi smiled and said: "There is no reason for this. Grandma has not seen the restoration of the old capital, how can she talk about life and death?"

"You can't see it, you don't need to see it, that's enough." Xie Daoqing grabbed Zhao Shi's hand and said, "After I die, I don't need to be buried with him in plain clothes. I can just go straight to Yongmu Mausoleum after three days."

As soon as he finished speaking, he let go and fell onto the bed.

"The Empress Dowager has passed away~" the chamberlain shouted.

"No matter what, Erlang should be allowed to come back and fulfill his filial piety." Zhao Shi said to himself, "The Empress Dowager died and she was absent from court for three days. Civil and military filial piety and civil prohibitions are all limited to three days. Immediately He summoned Duke Zhao back to the court and ordered you to draft a posthumous title."

Yang happened to come in and said, "Your Majesty, are you too simple?" "This is the last wish of the Empress Dowager, and we must abide by it." Zhao Shi said.

The biggest impact of the death of the emperor and the queen mother, apart from the political changes, is the series of prohibitions during the filial piety period.

No partying, no getting married, no... trouble.

Since Xie Daoqing has a will, he just keeps it simple.

Zhao Shi turned around and saw dozens of eunuchs and maids who had been waiting on Xie Daoqing, and said, "The Empress Dowager has passed away. You can each receive a sum of money and food and return to your hometown for retirement."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone thanked.

They followed Xie Daoqing to Dadu. They thought they would die without a burial place, but they didn't want to come back.

Although the wealth and prestige are no longer there, it is always safe and worry-free.

Get a severance package and find a new job, and your life will be equally worry-free.

One of them did not thank him. After everyone else got up, he bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, I have been following the Empress Dowager since I was a child. Now I am old and have no acquaintances in my hometown. Please have mercy on me and allow me to guard the mausoleum."

After Zhao Shi thought for a while, he said: "Yes, I will receive my salary as a commanding envoy. In my free time, I may wish to write the true records of the Empress Dowager, and I can also assist in compiling the true records of the late emperor."

It is difficult for the imperial harem to have a sense of existence, but in the later period of Lizong and the entire period of Duzong, Xie Daoqing was very involved in the affairs of the court. Recording his life will help clarify history.

Duzong Veritable Records has been compiled for three years, and the reason why it is still being worked on is not only that the investment is relatively small, but also because the deeds are difficult to test.

When Du Zong died, Xiangyang had already changed hands. The grass on the grave was just beginning to grow, and Boyan came east with his troops.

They were running away, and the loyal people were busy resisting, and no one cared about the true records of Du Zong.

After the fall of Lin'an, a large number of documents and books were destroyed or transported away. When Master Wang returned to Lin'an, not a single one was left, and there was no evidence for many things. The oral accounts of the old eunuch who followed Xie Daoqing are of great reference value.

Arrangements were made for the people around Xie Daoqing, and the personal guards sent mourning clothes, and Zhao Shi changed into them.

At this time, hundreds of civil and military officials arrived and began to manage the funeral.

Seriousness must be very serious, but there is not much grief.

After all, the world today belongs to Zhao Shi. It cannot be said that it has nothing to do with Xie Daoqing, it can only be said that it has little to do with it.

Because of the ban, Chengtian Mansion rarely stopped for three days.

Generally speaking, when the Queen Mother dies, she is not allowed to have fun within a hundred days, is not allowed to slaughter for 49 days, and is prohibited from marrying for a month. Now the emperor is considerate and only prohibits it for three days. If you don't comply, don't blame the government for heavy punishment. Attacked.

Of course, if you really want to secretly drink and have fun, as long as no one sues you, you'll be fine.

20 days later, Zhao returned from Ryukyu and escorted Lingshu to Lin'an with Zhao Bing.

As Lizong's only legitimate queen, Xie Daoqing was to be buried with Lizong.

By the time Zhao Zhaobing returned from guarding the mausoleum for three months, it was already February [-], but Xie Daoqing's posthumous title had not yet been determined.

The country perished during the period when the government was under the curtain, and the posthumous title was out of reach. But for an old and weak woman, a posthumous title was too much, so let's give her a middle posthumous title. After all, it was she who ordered her to be sent out of Lin'an, which led to the current situation.

In short, internal and external tangles.

In fact, as long as it is not a posthumous title, Xie Daoqing will not die in peace.

In the original trajectory, Xie Daoqing died two years ago without a posthumous title, and he was also not buried with Lizong.

Because Lizong's tomb was ripped open and his body was hung on a tree for the mercury in his belly.
