At this moment, Prime Minister Wang felt absolutely uncomfortable.

The unexpected defeat of the British Guards Battalion dealt a heavy blow to his reputation. Not to mention, Emperor Taikang was so angry that he closed his eyes and closed his eyes because of his defeat. The crime that made the emperor angry to death was that he had overwhelming power and could not bear it.

Emperor Taikang was in coma all night, and he, the prime minister, stayed by the dragon bed all night, watching helplessly as Emperor Taikang took his last breath. This was another heavy blow to him.

Emperor Taikang was weak and mediocre, and he respected him as the prime minister. Even in terms of friendship, it is extremely deep. How could he not feel sad or sad about the death of Emperor Taikang?

Empress Dowager Zheng took the opportunity to attack, and Anguo Gong made matters worse.

However, there is no way to admit guilt right now. Once you admit this crime, it will be difficult to get over it in the future.

"Please be careful what you say, Mr. An Guo!" Prime Minister Wang responded coldly: "We really need to find out the cause and effect of this matter clearly. General Du is in the army with hundreds of soldiers around him, how could he be rushed in front of him by thousands of rebel troops? Assassinated? Where can the Pingzhou rebels find such a master? There must be a conspiracy."

An Guogong did not dare and could not feel guilty. He looked at Wang Cheng with an angry look on his face: "We must thoroughly investigate and give an explanation to the emperor, to the Queen Mother Li Guifei and the Crown Prince, to all the civil and military officials of the dynasty, and to the world. Someone tell me!"

"Wang Rong! Regardless of your intentions or not, General Wei was recommended by you, and General Du was sent out by you. You must be responsible for this matter!"

Empress Dowager Zheng, who was mourning and crying, suddenly struggled to get up, rushed over, stretched out her hand to grab Prime Minister Wang's face: "You are so mad at my son, give me my son's life."

Prime Minister Wang was caught off guard and was caught by Empress Dowager Zheng. Empress Dowager Zheng was wearing long armor on her hands, which deeply scratched Prime Minister Wang's face and almost blinded her eyes.

Prime Minister Wang retreated hastily, crying out in pain.

Zhang Shangshu and others hurriedly gathered around: "Prime Minister Wang!"

"Where is the imperial doctor? Come here quickly! Treat the Prime Minister's injury quickly!"

The prince was shocked and rushed forward to support the mad Queen Mother Zheng: "Grandmother!"

Queen Mother Zheng turned around and threw herself into the prince's arms, wailing bitterly: "Prince, your father is gone, and my son is gone!"

A young man loses his father, a middle-aged man loses his husband, and an old man loses his son. This is the greatest sorrow in a woman's life. Empress Dowager Zheng's desperate cries lingered over Zhaohe Hall for a long time.

His Royal Highness held Empress Dowager Zheng and cried loudly.

Empress Dowager Zheng lost her son and he lost his father. From then on, there was no sky above his head. Even the sky of Daliang has to be held up by him. The young Crown Prince was not overjoyed or happy when he thought of this, and was even a little scared.

There was a lot of crying in the palace.

Zheng Chen knelt in an inconspicuous corner, lowering his head and weeping like everyone else. When no one noticed, he quietly raised his thin lips.

……

When the emperor dies, the country is in great mourning.

The news of mourning spread quickly from the capital to the prefectures and counties in Liang.

For a time, the whole country was in mourning, and even ordinary people put on mourning clothes and linen clothes, knelt at home and cried bitterly. The governors from various states set off to the capital one after another to attend the funeral for the emperor. The princes of the various vassals in Daliang also immediately set off for the capital after hearing the news of the mourning.

When the news of mourning reached the Nanyang Palace, it was already the sixth day of the first lunar month.

Chen Changshi and other subordinate officials shed tears.

Even Jiang Shaohua, whose heart was as solid as a rock, felt a little dazed and sad when he heard the news of Emperor Taikang's death.

In his previous life, Emperor Taikang died in April of Yangchun, but in this life, he died several months earlier. Perhaps, from the moment she opened her eyes and was reborn, from the moment Zheng Chen also returned to his youth, Daliang's national destiny has been quietly changing. The imperial army was defeated in Pingzhou, and Pingzhou completely became the territory of Tan Sheng, the king of Pingzhou. Emperor Taikang was angry and died. Behind all this, there is a familiar and long-lost conspiracy.

She has been staying peacefully in Nanyang County, far away from the capital and the people and events in her previous life. However, now it's finally time to face it.

"When will the princess leave for the capital to attend the funeral?" Chen Changshi asked with red eyes.

The vassal princes were going to mourn, and Jiang Shaohua, the Nanyang Princess, was no exception and had to leave as soon as possible.

Jiang Shaohua said: "We will set off tomorrow."

Chen Changshi immediately said: "I will go with the princess."

"No, Chen Changshi stays in the palace." Jiang Shaohua looked at Chen Changshi deeply: "I am going to the capital for a funeral, and it may take a while before I can come back. Maybe three to five months, or maybe a year and a half Zai. Only if Chen Changshi stays in the palace can I feel at ease."

Chen Zhuo understood the meaning of the princess's words.

The princess wants to go to the capital to "meet" Prime Minister Wang and perhaps Queen Mother Zheng. There can be no trouble in Nanyang County. She needs someone she can absolutely trust to guard the palace for her.

Chen Zhuo nodded solemnly and said, "Princess, please rest assured that with my ministers here, there will never be chaos in the Nanyang Palace."

Jiang Shaohua whispered: "Of course I trust Chen Changshi. One more thing, I want to tell Chen Changshi. If Lu County Ma makes trouble, Chen Changshi doesn't have to be polite and locks him up in the palace directly. All bad names will be removed. I'll bear it."

Chen Changshi: "..."

Nowadays, everyone in Nanyang Prince's Mansion is united and obeys the orders of the princess. The only possible variable, or "hidden danger", is Lu Junma and his son.

Chen Zhuo responded with extremely complicated emotions and whispered: "The princess will come back as soon as possible."

Jiang Shaohua hummed.

Yin Zhu Tubai brought the plain clothes and waited for the master to put them on. All golden hairpins from long hair should be removed.

Song Yuan had already sent the order, and two hundred soldiers quickly prepared war horses, weapons, dry food, etc. As for the accompanying officials, Jiang Shaohua only brought Chen Jinyu and Ma Yaozong with him.

Early on the next morning, Jiang Shaohua rode a mottled horse out of the palace.

After walking for a while, I heard a familiar roar from behind. Immediately afterwards, a semi-large tiger with smooth and shiny fur jumped out of the palace.

"Xiaohua, go back quickly." Jiang Shaohua frowned slightly: "I'm going to the capital. It's a long way, so you can't follow me."

Despite all the calculations, the little flower is not yet two years old and has not yet grown up. It is smaller than a leopard, running beside the tall war horse, making it look even more petite and cute.

Xiaohua refused to go back and jumped to Huama's side.

The flower horse has long been accustomed to running with the little flower, and even slows down a little to prevent the little flower from keeping up.

Jiang Shaohua felt helpless and turned to Song Yuan and said, "Uncle, please send Xiaohua back to the palace."

Song Yuan responded, dismounted, stretched out his hand to pick up the flowers, then mounted his horse and returned to the palace. The group continued to move forward, and after half a day they left the city gate and walked onto the official road.

Jiang Shaohua's ears were very sensitive and he heard the cry again.

This time, she didn't ask anyone to send Xiao Hua back, and sighed helplessly: "That's okay, let's take Xiao Hua with us to the capital to broaden our horizons." (End of Chapter)
