Chapter 1936 Opening the Coffin

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Yang Guang¡¯s coffin set out from Jiangdu on May 27th, and arrived at Tianjin Port more than half a month later.  It was already the end of June when it was sent to Xindu via Yongji Canal and Zhangshui River.

    This time it is different from just the news that arrived before, but the real body of the emperor.

    Although there has been a funeral for Yang Guang before, this time, the emperor's body has arrived, and the necessary procedures, even if they are just walked through, are indispensable, but the scale is even grander.

    Xindu County was governed as Changle County (now Jizhou City, Hebei Province).

    From Tianjin Port to the sea, through the Yongji Canal, and from Changlu County to Zhangshui River, you can go directly to the dock more than ten miles away in Changle County.  Since Huang Mingyuan moved his business to Xindu, the docks in Changle County have become increasingly busy. The warehouses, inns, and restaurants on the docks, as well as the ships on the Zhang River, are constantly coming and going.

    Early in the morning on June 28th, the entire Xindu City began to get busy.

    Yesterday, the messenger who delivered the emperor's coffin took a boat overnight to deliver the news that it had arrived in Hengshui.  Therefore, the entire platform was preparing for the arrival of the emperor's coffin.

    Around 3 o'clock in the morning, Li Zixiao, Li Jing, and Huang Weizhou were going to the dock to wait for the emperor's coffin to arrive.  Li Zixiao represents Xingtai, Huang Weizhou represents Huang Mingyuan, and Li Jing is nominally the one with the highest official position except Huang Mingyuan.

    Originally, Huang Mingyuan should have gone in person, but Huang Mingyuan had been ill for more than a month, and no one dared to let him suffer any more bumps.  Compared with Huang Mingyuan's health, even the emperor had to give way.

    However, just as everyone was about to set off, Xiong Kuohai came on horseback and stopped Li Zixiao and others.

    Everyone thought Huang Mingyuan had any new instructions.

    Xiong Kuohai dismounted and saw Li Jing and Li Zixiao and said: "Hua Gong, Li Zuocheng. Wei Gong has an order. He wants to go with you to pick up the emperor. Please wait a moment."

    Li Jing quickly asked: "How is Duke Wei's health?"

    Xiong Kuohai replied: "Don't worry, Duke Hua, Duke Wei will be fine."

    In order to ensure Huang Mingyuan¡¯s safety, Xiongkuohai not only prepared a car, but also ordered several doctors to follow him and keep an eye on Huang Mingyuan¡¯s body.

    Seeing Xiong Kuohai say this, Li Jing and Li Zixiao couldn't refuse.  Since Huang Mingyuan decided to welcome him in person, Xiangbi had done so carefully, and there was no way the two of them could stop him.

    It¡¯s just that the two of them were worried that Huang Mingyuan would get excited again and something would go wrong.

    Not long after the two waited, Su Mu personally drove the carriage out.  Everyone, including Li Jing and Li Zixiao, were on foot, so the carriage stood out among the crowd.

    ¡°But everyone knows about Huang Mingyuan¡¯s situation, and no one dares to say anything.

    Huang Mingyuan leaned on the carriage, feeling the bumps of the carriage, his expression no longer guarded.

    Huang Mingyuan hesitated for a long time on whether to come to greet him in person, and finally made up his mind to come to see the emperor.  Although Huang Mingyuan was a little afraid of seeing the emperor, he still couldn't reconcile himself to not seeing him here.

    In fact, Huang Mingyuan's health is not that bad. Although he was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot, he has a good foundation after all.  In the past few years, I have been running around day and night, which has damaged my body a lot. This time I took this opportunity to recuperate and my body recovered very well.

    But he still doesn¡¯t take things seriously and even pretends to be sick. He has his own reasons.

    On the one hand, Huang Mingyuan hopes to avoid the whirlpool of people wanting to support the emperor through this matter.

    Huang Mingyuan is really embarrassed about this matter. He neither wants to follow everyone's wishes and ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, nor does he want to dampen everyone's enthusiasm. After all, morale can be boosted but not discouraged, so he has to delay the matter by claiming illness.  After all, he was seriously ill, so it would be unrealistic to bring up the throne again.

    On the other hand, Huang Mingyuan hopes to deceive his enemies through this matter.

    Usually, because of Huang Mingyuan's strength, many of his enemies dare not move.  But now that I am sick, those moles hiding in the darkness are ready to move.

    At the same time, Huang Mingyuan is preparing to start a war against Guanzhong. He needs to make Li Yuan lose his vigilance and go shopping with Xue Ju.

    So no matter what, Huang Mingyuan has to pretend.

    This time, Huang Mingyuan went to greet the emperor's coffin because he wanted everyone to see that he was indeed ill and was not pretending.

    For this reason, Huang Mingyuan also had someone put makeup on himself.

    Everyone headed north and soon arrived at Changle Pier.

    Looking at the prosperity of the dock, Huang Mingyuan is still very satisfied.  Zhangshui is an important river system in Hebei, connecting the water transportation network of the entire central and southern Hebei.

    ? Goods traveling from south to north are transported here, creating a prosperous place.  I think it won't be long before a new city will appear north of Xindu.

    When Huang Mingyuan chose to go to TaiwanAn is located in Xindu because it has developed transportation and is located in the hinterland of Hebei Province, so the radiation effect is extremely strong.  In comparison, whether it is Wei County, Zhuo County, Tianjin, or Bohai, they are all relatively biased.

    Huang Mingyuan also plans to build another canal from Zhangshui to the foot of Xindu City to facilitate transportation. ãá minus .c om* ãá

    It was about six o'clock when everyone arrived at the pier.  At this time, the Emperor's constellation ship has not yet arrived. In the hot summer, everyone except Huang Mingyuan was exposed to the strong sun.

    It was not until noon, when everyone was about to collapse from the sun, that the emperor's ship arrived belatedly.

    At this time, the idle ships on the Zhang River have long been cleared away.  The river is wide open, except for the far east side, where more than ten ships are coming from the west.

    The entire welcoming team stared closely at the ship.  &#29306&#22914&#32&#108&#105&#110&#103&#115&#104&#117&#102&#97&#110&#103&#46&#99&#111&#109&#32&#29306&#22914

    And among the crowd, there was solemnity, no one dared to make a sound.

    Soon, the figure of the ship became larger and larger, and when it reached the dock, it was already like a hill.

    The ship docked, and a group of people disembarked. The leader was Chen Hui, the commander of the escort fleet, who was Huang Weiyang's confidant.  Li Zixiao welcomed him off the bow of the ship and led him all the way to see Huang Mingyuan.

    Chen Hui is extremely honored to be able to lead the way for future prime ministers.

    Chen Hui came to Huang Mingyuan's carriage and reported the situation through the curtain.  Chen Hui's journey was smooth. Although it was summer, the typhoon season had not yet come, the sea was very calm, and no unsighted pirates dared to offend the navy's ship.

    Huang Mingyuan listened carefully and said nothing.

    It wasn¡¯t until Chen Hui finished his report and handed over the letter Huang Weiyang asked him to send that Huang Mingyuan asked him to leave.

    Afterwards, Li Jing personally led people on board the ship and lifted the emperor's coffin from the ship.

    Li Jing¡¯s identity is very suitable.

    And Huang Mingyuan also asked Huang Weizhou to carry the coffin with him.  Although it is symbolic and no one will let the weight fall on him, the significance is already astonishing.

    At this time, Huang Mingyuan was carried out of the carriage.

    ¡° Huang Mingyuan¡¯s face was sallow and his body was a little thin.  He was sitting on a special stretcher, as if he had had a stroke, his face pale and stiff.  Mi He Mi

    No one dared to say anything.

    At this time, Li Jing and others carried the coffin and disembarked from the boat. At this time, Huang Mingyuan should lead everyone to kneel down to greet him, but Huang Mingyuan couldn't do anything like this.

    Everyone was kneeling on the ground, all bowing their heads and saying nothing.

    At this time, Huang Mingyuan, who was silent, suddenly said with great effort: "Open the emperor's coffin."
