Since the situ family has been excluded from the ranks of imperial relatives, hui'er has only relatives of his uncle Beiling Wang's family except for three useless Princess sisters.
There are no relatives in Huier's biological mother's house, and the brothers and sisters of the former Emperor are almost dead. The relatives of the former princes have nothing to do with him. The remaining distant relatives are not among the relatives long ago. After all, only the Beiling King's family is relatively close.
On the day of the ceremony, Xu Qing and Li Changting followed the king of Beiling and went to the palace to offer sacrifices to the Empress Dowager. A moment later, the ceremony was completed. In addition to Li Tinghui, the three princesses of the younger generation would also kneel down in the outer hall for half a day. Others left after the sacrifice.
When Xu Qing went out, he saw situ Xiao outside. Since situ Xiao was not a relative of the emperor, he could only kneel with all the officials and was not qualified to enter the palace.
Looking at situ Xiao's indifference, it's obvious that he hasn't recovered from what happened before. After situ's family no longer enjoys the privileges of imperial relatives and relatives, they can't make as much publicity as before. Even situ Xiao's official uniform has been changed.
There is a saying that it's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it's hard to go from extravagance to frugality. Judging from situ Xiao's face, it must be that the officials and families of situ's family have put a lot of pressure on him recently.
Once there is a crisis in the situ family, I don't know how many people will follow the bad luck. For situ Xiao, he just removes the status of the country's uncle, but it's not so good for those who live on the nose of the situ family.
For three days of filial piety, he had to kneel down and sacrifice in the main hall. During that time, he could only eat something to fill his stomach. So when he came, Xu Qing brought a large bag of cakes to Li Qinshu, which was delicious and full.
After returning home, Xu Qing had nothing to do. He spent some time teaching Yin Yao and Jiang Lu to make cakes, and spent the rest of his time planting dolls in the space.
Li Changting is very busy recently. He can't see people all day long. He doesn't even know where to go.
Xu Qing can only do the work by himself. The fruit trees in the space bear one fruit after another, and he can't finish picking them. Most of them can only rot in the ground.
However, Xu Qing still keeps the nuts and the like. They can be stored in the sun for a long time. Chestnuts, walnuts and almonds can be used to make cakes.
Of course, it's impossible to supply a shop with chestnuts from a tree in the space. It's also good to eat them from home or give them away.
Xu Qing put on a sun hat and long gloves, took a bamboo pole to beat chestnuts, and picked up two baskets of chestnuts on the ground. The burr shells of chestnuts were also clamped with tongs and sent to the basket. These can't be wasted, they can be used for fire.
The little Dragonfly carries a small basket to pick strawberries in the field and eats them while picking. Occasionally, she feeds one to the cloud. When she comes back from half the basket, her stomach is full.
"What would you like to eat in the evening?" Xu Qing asked her.
"Eggplant." The little guy came back glibly.
"Well, pick five by yourself. Do you know how many of them are?"
The little guy calculated one, two, three, four, five with his fingers, and then said with great certainty, "I know!"
When she came back with a basket full of eggplants, Xu Qing asked suspiciously, "how many did you pick?"
She took out the eggplants one by one, and when she counted to five, she counted them again from the beginning, no more, no less, just three, five, fifteen.
Xu Qing can't understand her brain circuit.
Dinner is eggplant with meat foam, braised eggplant, fish flavored eggplant and steamed eggplant. The last dish is little dragonfly.
"Ma Ma, where's the little mushroom?"
"No small mushrooms, who told you to pick so many eggplant, do not eat these, not even strawberries."
Little guy likes mushroom soup best. When he hears that there are no strawberries to eat, he can only eat eggplant obediently. Then he complains that there are too many to eat.
I don't dare to pick so many eggplants next time.
After the great funeral, the Court opened again.
The absence of the little emperor did not affect the beginning of the early Dynasty at all. Generally, at this time, people would take out all the things to discuss and discuss with each other. Sometimes when opinions are at loggerheads, Yin Xiang or situ Xiao would make a decision. If they also have different opinions, they could only discuss them later.
Today seemed no different from usual, but everyone noticed that Yin Xiang's face was calm.
"Do you have ben to play?" Yin Xiang asked.
There's nothing important recently. There's only one Shengzhou garrison left. The leader hasn't been selected yet, but no one dares to mention it now. Otherwise, it will be another bloody storm.
Yin Xiang waited for a while, but no one spoke. Just when everyone thought that he could go down to the court ahead of time today, Yin Xiang continued, "I have several important things to say here."
Hearing that it was a big event, all the officials cheered up and showed some curiosity. In recent days, is there something big that they don't know?
Behind Yin Xiang stood an official with a square plate in his hand. The plate was full of letters, folds, and several things in a small bag. I didn't know what it was.
Yin Xiang took out the first letter from the back and said, "this is the evidence sent anonymously by an insider to Shengzhou Yamen. The magistrate of Shengzhou sent it to my house overnight. It contains the letters between situ Xiao and some generals of Shengzhou garrison. It involves that situ Xiao ordered Jiang Chang to kill and attack the city, and ordered the dead to kill Jiang Chang when he wanted to surrender."Yin Xiang's steady and powerful words came out, and one after another pumping sounds sounded in the hall, one by one looking at situ Xiao incredulously.
Situ Xiao himself was also shocked, looking at the letter in Yin Xiang's hand, his face was gloomy and unbelievable.
Yin xiangleng snorted: "to tell you the truth, it's no secret that situ Xiao ordered Jiang Chang to kill and attack the city in Shengzhou. Although there is no evidence that he ordered Jiang Chang to burn, kill and plunder the city, the people will think that they were all ordered by situ Xiao under the boiling public resentment."
Situ Xiao had a gloomy face and didn't speak. Looking at Yin Xiang's expression, he knew that the evidence was conclusive. Otherwise, Yin Xiang would never have taken it to the hall, but it was a matter of the past. Even if he was suspected of instigating and killing Jiang Chang, there was no room for maneuver and explanation.
Yin Xiang put the letter back and picked up the second one: "in this fold, he reported situ Xiao's private soldiers in black cloud village of canglinggou and Qinglongshan village of Yuzhou. Fifty thousand soldiers and five thousand horses were not in the official list!"
"This one is to report that situ Xiao has taken bribes of as much as 10 million taels of silver in the past three years, and the officials under him have secretly searched for people's fat and cream, which has forced many people's families to perish!"
"These two reports are about situ Xiao forming a clique for personal gain, using his power to eradicate dissidents, assassinating the Minister of the central court, the former Minister of the Ministry of punishment Zuo Lang, the former Minister of the Ministry of industry Li Zhong, and the former Minister of Dali Temple Wei Yijie These ministers are on the list! "
"All kinds of crimes are too numerous to record. What do you want to say as regent?"
