Chapter 134

After the emperor's funeral, he was buried in the Lingshan Imperial Mausoleum.It's just that he doesn't know if he has the face to meet his father, the one who was killed and seized the throne by him!
On the eighth day of June, Song Yunqian ascended the throne and changed his reign name to Jiaping!
The first thing Emperor Jiaping did after he came to the throne was to thoroughly investigate the murderer who killed the late emperor.

He personally interrogated the guards and palace people who were in Caiwei Palace that day. The guards said that they rushed in and saw the emperor lying in a pool of blood. Therefore, it is concluded that the imperial concubine is the murderer who killed the first emperor.

But the palace servants of Caiwei Palace overturned this testimony, saying that a man came to the palace at that time, he closed the door after he entered the palace, and the guards rushed in after he came out, that is to say, the imperial concubine was not the only one in the palace at that time One person, moreover, when the guards rushed in, the palace people also went in. At that time, the imperial concubine was already in a coma. It is very likely that someone put the dagger in the imperial concubine's hand.Later, Zhong Zheng beside the emperor also confirmed that the nine kings had indeed entered the inner hall. When Zhong Zhong was in charge of waiting outside the hall, the emperor did not issue a decree to allow him to enter, but only ordered him to wait in front of the corridor. At that time, he only thought that the Nine Kings were ordered to go there.Later, seeing the Nine Kings leaving, his clothes seemed to be stained with blood, he was wondering and wanted to go inside to check, but the guards had already rushed in.

Based on the confessions of all parties and the inference of the imperial doctor, the imperial concubine was seriously injured at that time, not to mention hurting others. Judging from her injury, she would tear the wound even if she moved lightly, and the emperor was a martial artist. So the imperial concubine has no ability to assassinate the emperor.

Later, two guards retracted their confession, saying that the Nine Kings had indeed entered the inner hall at that time, and that after he left, his hands were indeed stained with blood.

Therefore, the Nine Kings are the suspects who killed the late emperor. Now, only by arresting the Nine Kings as soon as possible and interrogating them carefully can we know the truth of the matter.

After the arrest warrant was issued, the people, the government, and the martial arts are all looking for the whereabouts of the Nine Kings.

In fact, there were too many unreasonable things in this case, and some courtiers questioned it.However, Song Yunqian had already ascended the throne as emperor, and he had already opened his golden mouth, so even if he had doubts, he didn't dare to raise them.Besides, it's just a suspicion without real evidence, who dares to challenge Tianwei?

The queen was named Empress Dowager Jingde and moved to Shouning Palace.Concubine Rong was named Concubine Ronggui, and she lived in Shouning Palace with Empress Dowager Jingde.Concubine Ling Gui was named Concubine Ling Gui and lived in Mingyue Palace.Concubine Qin was named Concubine Qin and lived in Qianming Palace!
The Prince of Zhenyuan was conferred the title of Prince of Zhen, and he was granted the title of First Class Duke and General of Zhen Guo.

The left and right ministers are still Li Xiang and Xiao Xiang, and Li Xun is named Minister of the Ministry of War.Zhu Fangyuan is still the commander of the imperial forest army in the palace, this is his own idea, he said that Wen Yi is in the palace for a day, he is not at ease, although he has no ability, he still hopes to be by her side.Although these words made Song Yunqian uncomfortable, after so many things, he also knew that Zhu Fangyuan had no wrong thoughts about Wen Yi, so he granted what he asked for!
Due to the relationship of Marquis Jing, Yang Luofan also entered the palace, and she was still named Concubine Rou and lived in Piaoxu Palace.It's just that she entered the palace without a favor, even if she was named a soft concubine, no one paid much attention to it.No matter what, now she is Song Yunqian's only concubine, and in accordance with the ancestral system, she still has the ceremony of being a concubine.

Wen Yi still lived in Caiwei Palace, Song Yunqian originally wanted to change her place, but she said she was used to living in Caiwei Palace and didn't want to change, she insisted on this, Song Yunqian had no choice but to give up.

It's just that Wen Yi has not been named a concubine for a long time, and the courtiers have already raised objections. The scholars and bureaucrats wrote letters one after another, requesting that the concubine be crowned as a concubine as soon as possible, but Song Yunqian dragged them lightly.

He didn't want to make Wen Yi the noble concubine, he wanted Wen Yi to be his queen.

It's just that he knows that he can't bring this matter to the surface at the moment, he will send Wen Yi out of the palace again, and then arrange a new identity for her to formally marry Wen Yi into the palace as the queen.

Under the name of the first emperor, there were more than a dozen princes, but none of them were his own. They were the sons of the first emperor's brothers, and the first emperor forcibly adopted him under his name.Song Yunqian set things right, made all the princes princes, and asked them to recognize their ancestors and return to their biological fathers, so as to pass on their lineage.

This measure moved the courtiers greatly, and also moved the princes in the remote places who were sealed off, and they all went to Beijing to express their gratitude.

Since Song Yunqian personally set out to reach peace with Nanzhao, the Nanzhao emperor sent envoys to congratulate the new emperor on his enthronement.The envoy proposed to marry Princess Ning and Song Yunqian, but Song Yunqian refused on the grounds that the country was not stable. In this life, as long as Wen Yi is alone, the harem will never marry any concubines.

The Emperor Nanzhao was very displeased with this. After all, it was very embarrassing in diplomacy that he offered to marry him but was rejected.It's just that the national strength is not sustainable, and it is a post-war country. Even if you are angry, you don't dare to send troops to invade. After all, you have signed a peace agreement.

But at this time, it caused dissatisfaction among the ministers in the court. Song Yunqian had only just ascended the throne, and there was no general election yet. There was only Concubine Rou in the palace. Concubine Rou should be chosen to fill the court. The Emperor Nanzhao's initiative to propose a marriage is an act of friendship between the two countries. Song Yunqian shouldn't refuse.

The scholar-bureaucrat wrote a letter, hoping that the emperor would reconsider the marriage, but Song Yunqian's attitude was very firm, and he did not waver at all, and angrily reprimanded the scholar-bureaucrat in the court.

This matter spread to the harem, and Wen Yi also knew about it.Wen Yi knew what Song Yunqian was thinking. As a woman, she was very touched, and she also knew that from her standpoint, she should not say anything. If he persuaded him to marry, he only had himself in his heart, so where would the princess of the Southern Kingdom be?

I used to think that as long as he was enthroned as the emperor and had real power in his hands, he would not need to be manipulated by others, but now it seems that even if he is on the throne, there are times when he has no choice.

Song Yunqian would accompany Wen Yi to dine every day. There are several Jiangnan famous chefs in the small kitchen of Caiwei Palace. Song Yunqian likes to eat Jiangnan side dishes very much. Every day, Wen Yi would order someone to prepare Song Yunqian's favorite dishes and have a drink with him. Wine, talk about everyday things.

However, Song Yunqian never talked about government affairs.

Not long after he ascended the throne, it seems that all the officials have returned to their hearts, but he also knows that many people are obedient on the surface, but a lot of slander behind their backs.And from the very beginning, he didn't want Wen Yi to get involved in government affairs, because once Wen Yi got involved in government affairs, he would hear some bad rumors about her.Up to now, he has ruled the world, and what he can do for her is to protect her in his own way.

In the imperial study room, Master Sikong Zhang wrote a letter, asking Song Yunqian to make the imperial concubine the imperial concubine. Song Yunqian has not established Wen Yi's identity for a long time, and everyone knows Sima Zhaozhi's heart.Master Sima is not a person with ulterior motives, on the contrary, he is a very upright and very old-fashioned person, he also supports Song Yunqian, and because of his support, he can't let Song Yunqian risk the world's disgrace and marry his father's A woman is a concubine.In this way, Song Yunqian's reputation will be affected, and if it spreads, Liang Guo's prestige will be damaged even more.

He wanted to cover up the matter lightly in the imperial study room, but Lord Sikong pressed him hard. From ancient times to the present, he quoted scriptures and classics, and discussed the stability of the emperor's harem and the previous dynasty from the perspective of politics itself. He hoped that Song Yunqian would personally send envoys to Nanzhao's marriage proposal can be regarded as a step down for the Nanzhao emperor.

Song Yunqian was able to speak well at first, but Lord Sikong's tone became more and more bad, and he even talked about Wen Yi killing the king.Song Yunqian had already issued an imperial decree not to allow anyone to mention this matter again, but Lord Sikong repeatedly touched his inverse scales, and he immediately lost his temper and ordered someone to beat Lord Sikong ten times, although he was dissuaded by Zhong Zheng later, But Lord Sikong was heartbroken by this.He immediately cursed angrily: "Since ancient times, beauty has caused disasters, and the emperor is a sage and wise king. He should not be trapped by female sex. If the imperial concubine is a sensible person, she should also know that a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall, so as to avoid the emperor making mistakes. I should invite you to go out of the palace to practice. It’s just that the old ministers are watching, the imperial concubine is also a coquettish child. The late emperor was deceived by her before he was alive. The matter of marriage with Nanzhao hurt the relationship between Liang Guo and Nanzhao, so it can be seen that the woman surnamed Wen is really a disaster!"

Lord Sikong said so, he has already risked his wealth and life, he is an old courtier, highly respected, and the two prime ministers also respect him very much, and now he is ordered by the new emperor to beat ten boards, although he did not succeed, but he was injured His self-esteem hurt his face and hurt his heart even more, so why care about proportion?
Song Yunqian was furious, and immediately became angry, and was about to remove Lord Sikong's position. Fortunately, the empress dowager arrived in time to persuade Song Yunqian to leave.It's just that Lord Sikong was so angry that he was about to hit the pillar to kill himself, and the queen mother almost knelt down to beg him. Lord Sikong burst into tears and yelled in the imperial study room, saying that Liang Guo would perish because of warmth.

This farce naturally spread to Wen Yi's ears, so when Song Yunqian came to eat at night, Wen Yi told him the allusion between Wei Zheng and Tang Taizong.In the end, she said: "The pillars of the country should dare to speak up and speak out. If you punish Sir Sikong for this, it will only make all the officials feel disheartened. Besides, Sir Sikong has been an official for many years and has many students, including many important ministers of the country. If you make things difficult for him today, I'm afraid it will lead to an even worse situation in the future."

Song Yunqian was silent, he looked up at Wen Yi's face, and all kinds of sadness grew in his heart.That day, Wen Yi entered the palace to save him. Since she met him, how many grievances and crimes has she suffered?How much scolding did you endure?But she never said a word in front of him, she didn't even complain at all, she still believed in him so calmly.

He felt that what he said was superfluous. At this moment, he ruled the world and got everything the world wanted, but what he wanted was right in front of his eyes, but he couldn't reach it.

To use an old saying, without her, even if he gets Jiangshan, what's the point?
Sitting on the court hall, he felt so empty and his mind was so pale, only when he faced her could he feel at ease in his heart, without her, he didn't know how to spend this life.

Finally, he said with a smile: "Don't worry, I can handle it!"

How could Wen Yi not be worried?He has just been in the country, and his foundation is not stable. Fang has just pushed Nanzhao's marriage, which has already attracted criticism, and now because of her dispute with Lord Sikong, I am afraid that the rumors will spread tomorrow, and he will suffer more scolding.
