Section 238 Loss of mother

On the third day, Liu De had just gotten up when he received bad news.

Chang'an came to report that Prime Minister Shen Tujia had a stroke......

When Liu De heard this, he sighed.

In his previous life, Shen Tujia died in June, and although he avoided vomiting blood and dying in this life, he suddenly suffered a stroke.

And once he has a stroke, even if he can recover, as a prime minister, as a political figure, his political life has already ended.

As the saying goes, blessings and disasters are not singular.

Immediately after that, another piece of news came.

Liu De's mother, Su Ji, who was almost forgotten by him, was seriously ill and the news of her imminent death also came.

Although it is said that for Liu De, he will not care about Su Ji no matter what.

But after hearing the news, Liu De immediately forced himself into a sad feeling.

immediately ran to his father crying, snot and tears flowed together, kneeling and begging him to go back to Chang'an first.

So, in the eyes of civil and military officials and ministers, they saw a filial son who could no longer be filial.

It was naturally impossible for Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, not to approve Liu De's request, so he still ordered Lang to take Zhidu as an escort and escort Liu De back to Chang'an.

It's just that in private, Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, summoned Zhidu alone and handed Zhidu a top-secret edict.

After Liu De got his father's permission, he left Yiwu to entrust Yuan Ang to take care of, and after Chen Ajiao entrusted it to his father, he set off immediately, and a day later, Liu De came to Hangu Pass.

At this time, Liu De got a message from Chang'an again.

His biological mother Su Ji had died of a serious illness, and she sent a suicide note to Liu De.

"My son Liu De. I am seriously ill and will die soon...... Hope that the girl bows down to introspection and is filial to the Queen Mother, Her Majesty, and the Queen. He inherited the temple day by day to comfort my life......" Liu De finished reading this suicide note, and he was already crying into a tearful person.

But in his heart, he understands it like a mirror.

His mother's death was absolutely unnatural.

It is no exaggeration to say that even this suicide note is nonsense.

Those magnanimous words and encouragement are not counted, Su Ji actually ordered him to be filial to the queen and treat her as a mother, can Su Ji write these words?

What are you kidding......

If Su Ji really had an accident. I'm afraid curses and complaints are the words that occupy the most space.

It's just that Liu De didn't feel Su Ji's death at all, but felt it in his heart. She died just in time!

However, it is only when the pen is written that this kind of affection is revealed to others.

On the contrary, no matter whether there is someone or not, Liu De is in tears, and he looks like a filial son who loses his mother and does not want to live.

And that's not all. Liu De after reading the suicide note. Immediately ordered, the whole army, personally clothed with filial piety, personally held the spirit flag, walked three steps and one kowtow, and passed Guò Hangu Pass.

He also ordered someone to erect a stone monument in front of Hangu Pass, and Lewen was on it.

After Liu De and his entourage passed from Hangu Pass to Guò, the crowd watching the excitement immediately gathered in front of the stone stele.

A literate literati stepped forward. Looking at the words on the stone tablet, he read it to the others: "The saddest in the world." There is nothing more than the injury of losing a mother, the saddest in the world, nothing is more than the son is not filial and the mother has been mourned, poetry: The triumphant wind from the south, blowing his thorny heart, sad! Alack! There are seven sons, the mother works hard, there are seven sons, don't comfort the mother's heart! A poem with an inscription, with the pain of losing a mother: the line in the hands of the loving mother, the wanderer's shirt, the dense sewing before leaving, the fear of returning late, who said an inch of carelessness, reported three Chunhui! ”

"Filial piety!" After listening to the recitation, many people immediately began to talk about it.

"There is no filial piety in the world more than Your Highness!" Someone praised: "Whoever says an inch is careless, and Sanchunhui will be rewarded!" The cross is straightforward, pointing directly to the hearts of the people, and directly expressing the avenue of humanity, who can do it if it is not sincere and filial? ”

Some people also praised: "The heavenly family has always been pure filial piety, when Emperor Taizong, for the Empress Dowager to taste medicine, clothes do not untie, day and night to serve in front of the collapse, now also filial piety for the great virtue, now this Royal Highness, is also the most filial piety, no wonder Emperor Taizong wanted to say: This sub-class me, the future will be the king of the world!" ”

……………………………………

Liu De and his entourage sped up, and before sunset, they crossed the Kunshan Mountain and arrived at Huayin County.

That night, Liu De lived in the Tianzi Palace outside the county town of Huayin County.

After waving back left and right, Liu De quietly found Wang Dao and asked, "How did you do what I ordered you to do?" ”

"Your Highness, it's all done......," Wang Dao replied with a bow. The literati of Hangu Pass, especially those who were very enthusiastic about helping the illiterate people read out the text on the stone tablet, nine out of ten people were sailors! Otherwise, the high-ranking scholars, where there is so much idle work to explain to the mud legs?

Liu De rubbed his eyes that were already about to cry and swollen, thought about it, and ordered: "The funeral must be carried out after I return to Chang'an, and in addition, I will send someone to expedite eight hundred miles to Hejian and Changshan, and inform Liu Ronghuang and Liu Yanhuang about ......."

For such a big event as the death of his biological mother, the ceremonial officials in the court must have sent someone to inform Liu Rong and Liu Yan, and these two brothers must have rushed back to Chang'an non-stop.

The reason why Liu De made this extra move was just to sue his two brothers and the people of the world.

For this funeral, he is the main one, and the others just play soy sauce!

Liu Rong said that he would definitely be obedient, but Liu Rong may not be.

Liu De thought about it.

Although Liu Rong is not a weapon and has no ability, he is definitely not stupid.

Su Ji's death is too strange and abnormal.

If Liu Rong makes a fuss, it will be difficult to clean up.

So, Liu De found a blank piece of paper, wrote some words on the paper, handed it to Wang Dao, and said: "Immediately send someone to send Princess Tao Chang of Chang'an Pavilion urgently!" ”

If you want Liu Rong to be honest, you have to move out of the Empress Dowager Dou.

But Empress Dowager Dou is not Liu De's slave or courtier, how can Liu De do whatever he says?

Therefore, I can only ask Liu for help again.

After Wang Dao left, Liu De lay on his back on the couch.

Now, he basically guessed what happened to Su Ji's death.

The old Liu family has had a tradition of killing wives and abandoning children from the beginning.

Back then, in order to survive, Liu Bang pushed his wife, son and daughter out of the car......

Later, Liu Che also killed his mother and saved his son.

Now, Liu De is about to take the position, and Su Ji has not only become Liu De's biggest obstacle, but also a thorn in his father's side.

It turns out that don't mess with Emperor Mao.

The emperor was ruthless and dared to do anything.

Su Ji can end up in such a fate, it can only be said that her fate is good, at least the mourning after death and the future posthumous seal are indispensable.

You must know that in the previous life, Liu De remembered very clearly that Su Ji's final fate was a miserable death in Yongxiang, and Liu De's father even did not allow Liu De and Liu Yan to return to Chang'an to cry and mourn after Su Ji's death, and was only allowed to cry in the palace for three days and serve filial piety for half a month.

How can it be like now, the three sons are mourning together, and even be posthumously crowned as the queen and buried with the emperor in the future? (To be continued......)

PS: Well, speed up the plot!

Otherwise, it would be too sad to write about the Wu Chu Rebellion after writing for a long time.
