    ¡°Grandma, let¡¯s talk about something else.

    ?????????????????????????????? I heard that the prince seems to be marrying the princess recently, and the choice is still the legitimate daughter of the Niu family.

    What kind of gift should I give you?  "

    Speaking of marriage and the person he likes, Jia She was inevitably a little uncomfortable, but because the person he was talking about was his grandmother, he could only change the topic abruptly.

    Use the most familiar prince to change the topic.

    Qiao Mu could see through his thoughts at a glance, but he didn't expose it: "I'll give you what you want.

    Your gift is only a personal gift. The prince does not care too much about whether it is precious or not, he only cares about his sincerity.

    Your father has to worry about the gifts from the house.

    The Niu family is probably the official family of the town.

    It seems that the one decided should be Niu Xiangan, the eldest granddaughter of Niu Qing in Zhenguo. I originally thought that the prince would marry the King of Beijing or the Wang family of Nan'an County, but I didn't expect that the Niu family was chosen. It seems that the prince should also marry.  I felt some fear from the Holy One.  "

    Although Jia She is young, it does not mean that he cannot understand. After listening to Qiao Mu's words, he quickly asked: "Grandma, are you saying that the Holy Emperor is afraid

    But, how is this possible? The Holy Emperor has always loved the prince very much. There are eight or nine princes in the whole court, but the prince was the only one who was brought up by the Holy Emperor.  "

    "You are still too young, that's all. Don't think too much about this matter. I will tell your father later that even if the Holy Emperor is afraid, he probably won't take any action within ten years. Let's talk about it later.

    You should read the history books if you have nothing to do.

    Or advise the prince to read the history books.

    It is always beneficial to read more history books.

    Let me teach you an old Western saying, there is nothing new under the sun. What happened in the past will definitely happen again in the future. This has always been the case.  "

    Qiao Mu didn¡¯t intend to tell Jia She in too much detail.

    There are some things you still have to think about yourself.

    You have to find and think for yourself.

    "Yeah, I got it!"

    Jia She is good at this, he is obedient.

    If you don¡¯t ask, don¡¯t ask.

    While chatting here, Qiao Mu suddenly heard a bell ringing throughout the capital. The bell was clear and loud, deafening. After that, the bells continued to ring. When the bells exceeded nine, Qiao Mu knew that something big was going on.  Count them up.

    The bell stopped ringing after counting to twenty-seven.

    "It seems that the Queen Mother has passed away!

    "She'er, help me go out and call Juyu and ask her to get the imperial edict. There should be a decree coming from the palace later, so I have to prepare it in advance.  "

    "Grandma, why is it the Empress Dowager?"

    Jia She was a little confused.

    "Twenty-seven bells ring in the palace. This is the meaning of national mourning. Only the emperor, empress, queen mother and empress dowager are qualified. The empress dowager is still young and in good health. If something happens to the emperor, it should be under martial law in the capital first.  The bell will ring later, and the Empress Dowager was in poor health last year. Who else could it be if she wasn't her?

    You should also be prepared.

    As the eldest son, you also have to go to the palace with your father to mourn for the Empress Dowager. You can change your clothes here. From Aunt He¡¯s family, you are here. Quickly take out the white cloth from the public treasury and have someone put it away at the same time.  Put away all the festive things in the house.

    You should know the rules of national mourning.

    Just follow the old routine.  "

    Qiao Mu first explained to Jia She, and then saw that Aunt He¡¯s family had walked in, and quickly told him to start changing the layout as usual.

    ¡°Yes, old lady!

    Madam, do you want to send someone to notify her?  "

    Aunt He¡¯s family continued to ask.

    "Send someone to inform her. She has not experienced it before. She should understand. Zhuyu, hurry up and get the eldest young master's clothes and change them here. By the way, prepare Daishan's clothes as well."  OK, he¡¯ll have to come back and change later.¡±

    Qiao Mu continued to give instructions.

    I have experienced this kind of thing several times.

    So Qiao Mu knows the process very well.

    Naturally, it seems to be at ease.

    Relaxed and decent.

    As Qiao Mu's order was issued, all the servants in the Rongguo Mansion became busy and began to clean up and change the decorations in the mansion. All the festive things had to be replaced, and even the red porcelain had to be replaced with blue and white plain ones.  As for the color, all the servants have to re-tailor their clothes and change their festive colors into sober colors. It doesn't have to be black and white, but they also have to change to cool colors, and all their jewelry has to be taken off.

    Except thisIn addition, there are still many things that need to be changed. It took Qiao Mu a while to remove all the things on his body that should not be there, including the jewelry on his head and all the makeup on his face.

    Mrs. Gaoming is not allowed to wear makeup or jewelry during the state mourning period. Of course, the lining between the buns can still be used, but all kinds of messy hairpins and tassels cannot be inserted.

    But fortunately, according to the tradition of passing the day and the month, Qiao Mu and the others only need to mourn for three days. Although they cannot put on festive decorations after three days, they can at least put on a little makeup and wear something plain.  Jewelry.

    It won¡¯t make your hair unkempt.

    When Qiao Mu was ready, Jia Daishan hurried back from the office. As soon as he came in, he changed into the clothes he should wear under the service of his servants, and then worriedly said to Qiao Mu:

    "Mother, please don't go.

    Let me report your illness. You have been in a coma for the past two days and just woke up today. It is not easy to go to the palace to mourn. It is not without old ladies fainting in the past. I am really worried about your health.  Let me take a leave of absence.

    I think the Holy Spirit will understand.  "

    ¡°It¡¯s okay, I think I¡¯m fine.

    Besides, the Empress Dowager is the biological grandmother of the current Holy Emperor. If I don¡¯t go, what will the Holy Emperor think? Don¡¯t worry, it¡¯ll be fine. Please hurry up and send someone to prepare the carriage. Shi¡¯s side should be ready too. There are four of us.  We just happened to go there together.  "

    Qiao Mu knew very well that with his own status, even if he went to the scene, he would definitely receive special care. Even if super-ranking officials like them went to the palace to cry in mourning, they would definitely cry in the palace, kneeling on a soft couch.  She would never be like some third- and fourth-grade wives who could only kneel on the cold white marble floor outside the palace and cry.

    Therefore, there is nothing to worry about.

    When it comes to fashion, just pretend to cry twice.

    Qiao Mu still has some acting skills.

    Jia Daishan really couldn't defeat Qiao Mu, so he could only agree. When Jia Shi came here, he repeatedly told Jia Shi to take care of Qiao Mu.

    If anything happens, you must call the imperial doctor immediately.

    After that, I felt relieved to get on the carriage.

    And they separated at the palace gate.

    The places where officials and female relatives stayed were different, and the places where they mourned were also different. The female relatives could enter the inner court, but the officials could only cry twice outside and listen to the edict.

    Crying in mourning is a tiring thing.

    The most important thing is that many of the imperial wives are even comparing themselves to each other. If you cry once, I will cry twice. If you cry, my sleeves will be wet. I will wet both my sleeves. Because of the death of the Empress Dowager, you  I felt sad and didn¡¯t want to eat, so I went on a hunger strike for three days because of the death of the Queen Mother.

    It seems that this is the only way to show their loyalty and their grief.

    Each one of them is really better than the drama queen.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
