Chapter 259 The Spiritual Driver Initiates(1/2)
When it dawned the next day, the sound of fighting in the palace had completely stopped.
Only the blood stains formed by countless dried blood still remain in the palace, silently telling the story of yesterday's bloody storm.
Thousands of corpses were dragged out of the palace by Liang's army.
As the victor, Liang Yibu led his troops and horses directly into Renjia's last place of resistance.
It is also the palace where Bingchang’s body is located.
Dozens of nobles from the Renjia family and the Weiming family were tied up and forced to kneel in this hall.
Liang Yibu looked at Bingchang's body, plopped it down, and knelt down: "What a soldier..."
"I'm guilty of death! I'm guilty of death... failing to save him..."
As he spoke, he started howling without even a single tear!
Those nobles from Renjia and Weiming families who were forced to kneel immediately began to curse: "Rebellious ministers and traitors! Bah!"
"Liang Yibu, we are waiting for you in hell!"
Liang Yibu turned around, looked at the nobles, and sneered: "You regicides, how dare you bark in front of me?"
"Chop them all, cut out the heart and lungs, and pay homage to the warriors!"
Immediately, the entire courtyard was occupied by curses, curses and painful wails.
Liang Yibu turned a deaf ear, and now he only had one last worry in his mind - last night, Ren Duo Baozhong led his troops to break through, and Ren Duo Xizhong was killed in the process, but Ren Duo Baozhong led hundreds of remnants and rushed out of Xing
Qingfu.
It seemed like he must have gone to Renjia's headquarters.
It was a large tribe with more than 100,000 people and strong strength.
And this is exactly what Liang Yibu wanted him to do.
The Renduo tribe is very powerful and occupies several excellent pastures and manors.
If Liang can take this opportunity to uproot it.
Then annex those ranches, manors, and slaves. In a few years, the Liang family will become the largest family after the Weiming family.
Thinking like this, Liang Yibu showed a cruel smile.
At this time, the bloody hearts were brought to Liang Yibu.
Liang Yibu immediately ordered people to offer the heart to Bingchang's soul, and even led the people to pretend to mourn.
After all this was done, Liang Yibu came to the Empress Dowager Liang's bedroom.
Empress Liang called him aside and said to him: "Brother, two pregnant concubines were found in Wuzu's harem..."
"How do they deal with it?"
Liang Yibu gritted his teeth and cursed. He wanted to kill the two concubines directly.
But reason brought him to his senses.
"Please send someone to take good care of the queen..." Liang Yibu said in a deep voice: "Also please invite the important ministers of the Weiming family to come to the palace to see the two concubines... Let them know that I, the Liang family, are the ones who are loyal to the Wuzu!"
"As for these two concubines... let's wait until they give birth to children before making a decision!"
This is what Liang must do now and has to do.
The Wu soldiers died, and the Queen Mother could not last long.
There is no guarantee that Wei Mingjia and other wealthy families will not have any changes.
Especially those tribes that are loyal to Bingchang, if they kill too much or push too hard.
These people may not dare to raise an army to resist, but they still have the courage to take their tribes and flee to the Southern Barbarians and the Northern Dynasties.
In the past, after the Yeli family and the Muzang family were destroyed, the rest of them fled to the Southern Barbarians in large numbers and became the most active Tibetan generals in the Southern Barbarians against the Dabai Gao Kingdom.
Therefore, even if it is a show, these people must be stabilized first.
There is no better way to prove to outsiders that the Liang family has no way of causing trouble than to support Bingchang's posthumous son.
Empress Liang also knew this. After hesitating for a while, she finally nodded: "Brother, what I said is..."
So, on the same day, he issued an edict explaining the affairs of the palace.
After the nobles entered the palace, they went to Bingchang Ling and inspected his body, as well as the 'traitors' who had been disembowelled and their hearts removed.
Finally, accompanied by Empress Liang, they met the two concubines who were pregnant with Bingchang's children.
Although, most people knew in their hearts that Liang must have taken advantage of the Wu soldiers' death and repeated his old tricks to eliminate the enemy.
However, the Liang family has already won.
Moreover, Mr. Liang's face-saving work was indeed done beautifully.
What else can be done?
Therefore, even the nobles of the Wei Ming family who had doubts about Liang could only hold their noses and accept the current situation and accept Liang's rhetoric.
It is indeed the Ren family that is causing trouble!
Mr. Liang is loyal and loyal, and he has done great service to the country by eradicating the rebellious parties!
…
Naturally, Bianjing City still knows nothing about the affairs of Xingqing Mansion.
Even if they knew, no one would care about it.
Now, the most important thing in the entire Song Empire is the late emperor's spiritual guidance.
Dingmao (the sixth day of the lunar month) in the tenth month of the eighth year of Yuanfeng.
As soon as it dawned, mournful music began to play in the palace.
In Jinling Palace, there was even more crying.
Amid the cries, the late Emperor Zan Palace, which had been tightly surrounded by countless catalpa trees for more than half a year, began to dismantle the outer catalpa trees.
Piece after piece of catalpa wood was dismantled.
The late emperor's Zi Palace was subsequently exposed.
The Empress Dowager cried extremely sadly. She looked at the huge Zi Palace being lifted up by dozens of powerful dragons.
She immediately wanted to rush forward and leave the late emperor's Zi Palace in Bianjing.
They quickly grabbed her and said, "My condolences... The late emperor is going to ascend to immortality and be with his ancestors..."
The Empress Dowager sighed and watched her son's Zi Gong go out.
When Zi Gong was carried out of the Yuling Hall of Jingling Palace.
Empress Dowager Xiang, who was dressed in mourning robes, led all the concubines and female officials to kneel down and send the late Emperor Zi out of the palace in tears.
In the midst of mourning and music, the ceremony officials shouted in a high and steady tone: "Kneel down!"
All the concubines fell to the ground and cried together.
"Bow..." They all prostrated and bowed again.
After doing this three times, the etiquette officer called again: "The Queen Mother kneels down to see the late Emperor!"
Go up to the Queen Mother and bow again in front of Zi Palace.
Everyone prostrated collectively, turning the entire courtyard into a white ocean of mourning clothes.
The late Emperor Zi Palace moved forward firmly, crossed the palace gate, crossed the threshold, and arrived outside Jinling Palace.
Zhao Xu was dressed in filial piety, holding a bamboo stick, and led hundreds of civil and military officials to stand on both sides.
When the late Emperor Zi Gong appeared outside the palace.
Zhao Xu was already holding a bamboo stick and came forward to kneel in front of Zi Palace.
Under the command of officials from the Ministry of Rites, he prostrated himself on the ground, knelt down again, kowtowed and cried.
"I'm sorry for your heir, Emperor Xu. I respectfully send you off to the imperial examination, the heroic martial arts, the holy filial piety, and the emperor's promotion!" Zhao Xu said with a cry in his voice as he bowed respectfully and sent him off again.
The huge car was already in place.
The Imperial Guards respectfully carried the late emperor Zi Gong and placed it firmly on the cart.
Zi Gong was carried on a chariot, and rituals and music were played.
Zhao Xu and his ministers stepped forward and bowed before the chariot.
He prostrates himself, bows his head three times, and rises.
Then, Zhao Xu bowed his hands to Lu Gongzhu and said, "I would like to ask Zuo Cheng, the minister, and Chen Gongzhu, my minister, to read the mourning book of the late emperor on my behalf..."
"Nuo!" Lu Gongzhu kowtowed again, respectfully took a piece of white linen paper, and then began to read to the ministers: "Wei Yuanfeng was in the eighth year, the year was Yimao, the first day of the third month was Jiawu, the fifth day In the Wuxu period, Emperor Shenzong Ying Liewu Shengxiao died in Funing Hall and was buried on the west steps of the hall."
"On the 10th day of the 10th month of Guangdong, Renxu Shuo, on the 6th day of Dingmao, I moved to Yongyu Mausoleum. This is the etiquette..."
"The filial son and heir, Emperor Chenxu, pays homage to the great court, titled Jue Zhongjing..."
