Chapter 657: Imperial Tomb

Soon the eldest prince came out, only a few guards, and the group left the capital and went straight to the imperial tomb.

Since the first emperor ascended the throne not long after the construction of the imperial tomb, more than ten years, the imperial tomb has already been completed.

All the way to the gallop, everyone spoke, because their hearts were very heavy.

The royal mausoleum has always been guarded by guards, which are for the imperial mausoleum. Although there was chaos in the capital, the Imperial Tomb Guard was not affected.

The Imperial Tomb was still quiet and solemn, until a cavalry came to alarm the Imperial Tomb Guard, and it became a little noisy.

"Gonggong Zheng? Your Highness? The commander of the Imperial Tomb Guard saluted.

Although the Imperial Tomb Guard is very important, it is also the most non-existent guard in Beijing, because the responsibility of the Imperial Tomb Guard is to protect the Imperial Tomb.

But who will eat the attention of the ambitious leopard who dares to hit the imperial tomb? Therefore, the Imperial Tomb Guard is the most idle and boring guard, but it is still stationed in a remote Imperial Tomb.

So although Tang Ning has become famous in Beijing in recent years, the people of Huanglingwei have only heard of him, and they only know that there is such a number one person.

But they still know about the sudden changes in the situation in the capital recently, and they know that yesterday the third prince attacked the city with the Jizhou army.

So at this time, he saw that Zheng Yi and the eldest prince were one step behind, surrounded by a young man, and he guessed in his heart that this must be the third prince.

Looking at it like this, the second prince has been overthrown. Although he had some guesses in his heart, he was not easy to speak, and if he called it wrong, it would be a big trouble.

The eldest prince immediately said: "I haven't seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince yet!" ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? This is the Three Princes, there is no doubt about it! Since the third prince has become His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it means that he has won the support of the ministers and is about to ascend the throne as the emperor.

This is the emperor of the Great Zhou in the future! And it was the emperor who ascended the throne orthodoxically.

The commander immediately knelt on the ground and said, "See His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

Tang Ning said in a deep voice: "Get up! The main palace came to pay homage to the first emperor. ”

The commander hurriedly got up and bowed down and said, "Your Highness, please!" ”

There were many eunuchs guarding the tomb in the imperial tomb, all kneeling on both sides to greet them, but Tang Ning's attention was all on the emperor's tomb.

The emperor's mausoleum was solemn, but cold, there was no longer the emperor's voice and smile, Tang Ning's heart was suddenly like a blockage, although so much time had passed, but his heart was still difficult to suppress sadness.

Tang Ning stood for a long time, knelt down with red eyes, and choked up: "Erchen has finally returned to Beijing, and Erchen has come to see his father!" ”

Scenes from the past rolled in Downing's mind.

"I think you have a lot of wealth and nobility, and you will be unspeakably expensive in the future......"

"Although I have suffered a little, I have not eaten in vain, and I am more productive than your eldest brother and second brother......"

"Ning'er, when you go to Zhongshan to worship your ancestors, you must be careful!"

"I know, go ahead!"

When he recalled that he went to worship his ancestors and got along with his father before leaving Beijing, he was even more uncomfortable, and at that time he felt that his father had some ink and some children, how could he have thought that since then it will be goodbye.

Now he understands that at that time, his father had already predicted the future, and he pulled him to say so many words because he was very reluctant in his heart.

It's just that he didn't understand it at that time, and now that he understands, he wants to talk more with his father, and he has no chance. Why didn't he talk to his father more in the first place?

When you think about this, how can you not bring tears to your eyes?

Not only Tang Ning choked with sadness, but the eldest prince and Zheng Yi were also choked with sadness, everyone has their own sadness and their own thoughts in their hearts.

After kowtowing a few times, Tang Ning got up, and the eldest prince and Zheng Yi also got up. This time, they just came to worship in private, and after Tang Ning ascended the throne as emperor, they would also lead hundreds of officials to come to worship solemnly.

It wasn't until the sun sank that the group left the imperial mausoleum. The few people on the road were still very silent, and they did not get out of the mood of sadness and longing for a long time.

When it was almost the official road in the capital, dozens of gallops suddenly came, and Tang Ning stopped holding his horse.

Because Tang Ning was a little shocked to find that the person who came was Lin Xiangnan, he was busy with his feet not touching the ground for more than a day, and he didn't have time to pay attention to Lin Xiangnan's movements.

Why did he leave Beijing suddenly?

Zheng Yi also noticed that it was Lin Xiangnan, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, after His Highness entered the palace yesterday, General Lin left Beijing to chase Yebei!" ”

Tang Ning stared at him and said, "Ye Bei? He snuck away again? ”

Zheng Yi nodded and said: "Yes, Your Highness, yesterday His Highness was still attacking the palace, Ye Bei had already escaped from the capital, but he did not escape the eyes of the Internal Guard, since he had fallen into hiding, he was making waves in the capital, and he still wanted to escape, wouldn't he deceive me that there was no one in the Great Zhou?" ”

Tang Ning asked with some sighs, "Does General Lin know about Qingbo?" ”

Zheng Yi nodded and said, "Yes, General Lin already knows!" ”

As he spoke, dozens of horsemen had already come to the front, Lin Xiangnan dismounted cleanly, and Zheng Yi said while dismounting: "General Lin, the three scholars and the six departments and Jiuqing have asked His Highness to move to the East Palace." ”

Lin Xiangnan immediately understood when he heard it, the general trend has been decided! He was still worried about Jingli along the way, but he was afraid that those civil officials would have any objections.

Lin Xiangnan solemnly saluted: "See His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

Tang Ning hurriedly dismounted and helped Lin Xiangnan and said, "The general doesn't need to be polite!" Thank you to the general for saving his life! ”

Lin Xiangnan shook his head and said, "That's the duty of the last general!" ”

Tang Ning said a little gloomily: "I have never heard Qingbo talk about it, and I thought that Qingbo no longer has any relatives, if I had known that I should let Qingbo enjoy the joy of family, but now, Qingbo has ......"

Lin Xiangnan said: "Speaking of which, my father can be regarded as seeking benevolence and righteousness!" ”

Tang Ning asked, "What about Ye Bei?" Has the general ever chased him? ”

Lin Xiangnan nodded and said, "Ye Bei has been killed by me!" ”

Tang Ning sighed: "The second prince committed suicide, and Ye Bei has also been beheaded, and he can also comfort Qingbo's soul in the sky." ”

The eldest prince listened quietly, although he didn't know the inside story, but he also understood. Because he knew who Qing Bo was, Qing Bo was the old housekeeper of the Tang Mansion and the old servant of Tang Ning's mother, taking care of Tang Ning in Aoki Town.

But now it sounds like Qingbo is Lin Xiangnan's father?

The eldest prince suddenly felt a chill coming, no wonder Jingying didn't fire an arrow, and directly opened the city gate. The second child still wants to mutiny and become the emperor?

With the relationship between Lin Xiangnan and Qingbo, how can the second child succeed? It's really ridiculous to think that he and the second child fought with Tang Ning for the throne at the beginning.

Who would have thought that Lin Xiangnan, the general who has always been impartial and does not participate in the battle for the storage position, would stand on Tang Ning's side since ten or twenty years ago?
