After burning a round of paper money, they and the female relatives from other houses went to the side hall to meet the queen.

The funeral of the old concubine was arranged by the empress, the master of the harem.

The Queen's eyelids jumped when she saw Jiang Changning, who was dressed in plain clothes and as pure as a chrysanthemum.

The emperor was already thinking about Jiang Changning. If he saw Jiang Changning dressed like this, he would probably be bitten by a bastard and wouldn't let go.

"The weather is hot, so please pay more attention to your health," the queen warned politely.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty." All the ladies bowed and said.

"It is really hard to suspend the mourning for fourteen days and have everyone come to the palace to cry for mourning every day. Although the dead are the most important, we cannot just respect the dead and let the living suffer. I will go to the Queen Mother and ask everyone to take turns.

Go to the palace and cry, so that everyone won't have to work so hard."

The queen came up with this idea on the spur of the moment. She cried for fourteen days, which was too long and difficult to prevent.

It may be a good idea to reduce the number of times Princess Jin enters the palace so that the emperor cannot find opportunities.

All the ladies were overjoyed when they heard this. If this is true, it would certainly be a good thing.

Everyone didn't have much affection for the old concubine, and many of them had never even met her before. Entering the palace to cry was out of etiquette, otherwise, who would be willing to come.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your sympathy." Princess De took the lead in saying.

Others followed suit, "Thank you, Madam, for your sympathy."

The queen went to Fushou Palace first, while the female relatives of each palace went to the mourning hall to cry.

Jiang Changning, the Crown Princess of De, and the Crown Princess of Changshan gathered around a brazier and threw paper into it.

"Do you think the Queen Mother will agree?" Princess De Wang asked in a low voice.

"I will agree, it's so hot. Is it possible that a few people will die from the heat and every family will be in vain?" Princess Changshan said.

In the palace, the female family members of the prince's palace, the county prince's palace and the princess's palace are also in this palace.

Although the smell is a bit unpleasant, it is not in the sun after all.

It is really difficult for people kneeling under the verandah. The eaves above are too high and the sunlight blocked is limited.

You must know that most of the female officials' relatives kneeling there are no longer young, and several are over sixty years old.

If one or two people kneel to death, the people will say that the royal family is not kind.

Half an hour later, the Queen came back, "The Queen Mother agreed, and tomorrow we will invite the female relatives of Prince Qing's Palace, Prince Jiujiang's Palace... Yongyi's Palace, and the families of third-rank officials."

Officials and their family members below the third rank are not eligible to enter the palace to mourn.

Therefore, although Crying Spirits is tiring, it is an honor.

The queen made arrangements for the mourners one by one.

The palaces that went into the palace to mourn together with the Jin Prince's Palace were Changshan Prince's Palace, Xinjian Duke's Palace, Sui Kingdom's Duke's Palace, and Xinwuhou's Palace...

The queen's arrangements were also painstaking. Princess Changshan and Mrs. Xinwuhou were both born in the general family, upright and strong-willed. The emperor would never dare to take away Princess Jin in front of them.

The eldest princess of Jiashan is the emperor's aunt, and the emperor has always been afraid of her.

The Duke's Palace of the Sui Dynasty was her natal family, so she could privately ask her mother and sister-in-law to stay with Princess Jin to prevent her from being left alone.

Most of the wives in other mansions are loyal and honest people.

The queen was extremely defensive, but the emperor still saw Jiang Changning.

That day, the emperor, who had come to pay homage to the old concubine the day before, came again.

He saw Jiang Changning kneeling in front of the brazier burning paper money. She was wearing a moon-white plain satin palace dress, with a low bun and silver jewelry on her bun.

The whole person looked very cold and elegant, like the fairy Chang'e who came down from the moon palace.

The emperor involuntarily took two steps in the direction of Jiang Changning. Eunuch Yu stepped forward to stop him fearfully, "Your Majesty, the eldest princess of Jiashan is holding some incense for you."

This reminder brought the lustful emperor back to his senses. He reluctantly glanced at Jiang Changning and walked towards the coffin.

As soon as the emperor arrived at the mourning hall, someone immediately reported it to the queen.

This kind of spying on the emperor is not allowed.

But the queen had to do it, she couldn't let the emperor do something wrong.

When a great-grandmother was alive, she didn’t see how much the emperor cared about her filial piety. After her death, is it necessary to pay homage to her soul for two days in a row?

It is too obvious who the emperor is going for.

If a king seizes his minister's wife, it is a sign of the country's downfall.

The previous dynasty served as a warning, and the Helian clan was able to establish their country because of this.

Is it because this is why we gain a country, and is this also how we lose our country?

The queen hurried over and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the situation in the mourning hall.

Jiang Changning was burning paper on the right side of the coffin, and the emperor was talking to the eldest princess of Jiashan on the left side.

"The Queen has also come to pay her respects." The eldest princess of Jiashan showed a trace of doubt in her eyes. Why did this couple care so much about Concubine Xiang?

"Aunt Jiashan." The queen called her affectionately.

The queen put on the incense, toasted with wine, and called: "Your Majesty."

The king of a country cannot stay in front of the soul of a great-grandmother who neither nurtured nor assisted him.

The emperor left with the queen, and the lady from an unknown house next to him praised: "Your Majesty and your empress are really benevolent and filial."

Renxiao?

Jiang Changning sneered slightly, are you kidding?

She didn't know whether others were paying attention, but she noticed that the emperor seemed to be walking towards her.

She really didn't want to be so sensitive, but the fact was that the emperor was obsessed with her.

Being targeted by a lecherous king is a headache.

Fortunately, the queen was aware of it and made corresponding arrangements. As long as she went to the palace to cry once more, she could send the old concubine to the funeral.

But being "remembered" so much all the time was like a thorn in the back or a thorn in the throat, so I had to find a way to make the emperor feel powerless.

"It's bad, Mrs. Luo fainted." Zeng Zhaofu exclaimed.

Mrs. Luo was nearly sixty years old, her body was already thin, and she was still wearing a second-grade imperial uniform. She burned paper and cried, and fainted from the heat.

"We can't let her lie here." Jiang Changning went over to help her.

"Her lips are all white. Is she sick or suffering from heatstroke?" Zeng Zhaofu stretched out his hand to pinch her.

"Come here, go to Dr. Xuan." The eldest princess of Jiashan directed them, "Hurry up and help Mrs. Luo to the side hall."

"Princess Jin, let me help you." Princess Changshan said.

"Okay." Jiang Changning also knew that his strength was limited, so he stepped aside.

Several people helped Mrs. Luo into the side hall and asked her to lie down on the soft couch.

Mrs. Luo was in quite bad condition, her eyes were closed tightly, her lips were white, but her cheeks were unusually red.

"Everyone, please stop crowding around, spread out and let some air flow." Jiang Changning said while unbuttoning Mrs. Luo's collar.

"Princess Jin is right, everyone should spread out. Mrs. Luo is probably suffering from heat stroke." The eldest princess of Jiashan was afraid that others would think Jiang Changning was young and would not listen to her, so she hurriedly offered help.

The people dispersed a little and the windows were opened, but it was too hot and there was no wind, so the room was still stuffy.

"Go and bring in an ice basin." Princess Jin pointed at the maid and said.

The ice basin was brought in and placed next to Mrs. Luo. The palace maid then fanned Mrs. Luo against the ice basin. The area around Mrs. Luo was finally cooler.
