Prince Wei entered the Purple Palace and hugged the emperor and cried bitterly. The two brothers were left without a father or a mother.

Prince Wei knelt down and kowtowed politely, without any sadness on his face.

The emperor was alert and not dozing off. He hurriedly pulled his younger brother up and looked him over from head to toe. He saw no injuries and asked, "Are you okay?"

King Wei replied, "Thanks to my elder brother."

The emperor nodded. He patted him on the shoulder and said, "Go and change your clothes. Change your clothes first, and we'll talk after you're done."

I definitely didn't go to bed that early. My clothes were ready, and so was my midnight snack.

Ying Fang, Yu Gu, Yun Cheng, Song Gongming, Meng Dan, King Wu and others were all there.

The emperor thought it was quite funny and said: "No one is allowed to live in a house that is more than 100 years old."

Song Gongming spoke for King Wei, and it was actually this: "Rituals are like houses, used to restrain people, but in fact they also provide shelter. Rituals are like clothes, which not only restrain people, but also keep people warm. Nothing has ever been immutable, and saying that you respect the ancient system is just nonsense. These things need to be developed and adapted to the times."

King Wu nodded. It was easy to understand. That was the reason. Besides, some thieves just wanted to deny Chen Qi. For example, if the ancient system had a higher level, they could deny Da Qi. For another example, they have been arguing these days about how the Queen Mother's funeral should be and how the Prince of Wei should be. Only by praising Old Liu to the sky and restraining the Prince of Wei, there is no right or wrong. The Liu family can do whatever they want. Is it ridiculous? Is it absurd?

The Liu family had explosives, muskets, and sorcery, yet they still insisted that the Prince of Wei was possessed by an evil spirit.

There has been a dispute over posthumous titles these days. In fact, everyone knows that a posthumous title is a summary of one's life. Even an emperor could have a bad posthumous title. A bunch of thieves, they insisted on giving Lao Liu a good posthumous title. How is that possible? Although this matter is a bit special, because if she is not good, she can be deposed without giving her a posthumous title. But can't she be deposed? The emperor's adoptive mother, the biological mother of the Prince of Wei, can't be deposed. So let's innovate and give her a bad posthumous title. In fact, it has been there before.

Old Liu had forced the emperor to abdicate and done all kinds of weird things. If he could be given a good posthumous title, wouldn't things be in chaos in the future? It must not be rigid! The King of Wu knew that those thieves were taking the opportunity to cause trouble, so the King of Wei was right to get rid of the thieves. What about the death of Old Liu and everyone helping him, it's all nonsense.

The King of Wu saw that the elder brother treated the younger brother better and he wanted to protect him in his arms.

The King of Wu does not need to show his courtesy, it is enough for Yuan Miao to be favored by the Emperor.

King Wei changed his clothes into plain ones, looking very pretty. Then everyone sat down to eat.

Prince Wei has not had any food since he entered the city today.

The emperor prepared a lot of delicious food for him.

The King of Wu also has one. Now the three brothers are discussing the affairs of their mother, but since it is the emperor's family affair, naturally the important officials of the court will also participate.

Many people, including the Left Prime Minister and Prince Ning, came.

The eldest princess of the Shen Kingdom came with Gan Peilan.

The Princess of the State of Shen is the eldest sister. Her mother has passed away, so she is very busy.

Gan Peilan's injury is not a big deal, Yuanbao's pills are very useful. But Chen Jie and his son are not so good, Gan Peilan's medicine will not be wasted on them. Maybe lying down is saving them. But Chen Jie is still actively courting death, and no one can stop him.

Prince Wei and the Emperor suggested: "Don't use the emperor's posthumous title, just give him the posthumous title of 'Huang'."

The left prime minister was speechless. This was what his own son said. Others took the prince's face into consideration, but the prince said no.

Prince Ning was old and considered everything: "Who should enjoy the feast?"

This is a very simple question, and it has been asked by many people. Every emperor has a queen, but Xianzong only had Liu as his empress.

Prince Wei was speechless and said, "Empress Wen Zhao! Why are you still bullying others like this? The Liu family bullies Empress Wen Zhao, why should others follow suit? What did Empress Wen Zhao do wrong?"

The atmosphere was a little weird for a moment.

Prince Wei continued to eat. How simple is this? The Liu family only has Old Liu in their eyes, and they don't even take the emperor seriously. But Empress Wen Zhao is the emperor's biological mother, and she hasn't had time to make a mistake. Since she gave birth to a good son for the Chen family, then the mother will be honored by the son.

Song Gongming ate well and couldn't eat anymore, because there were things about the Song family again. In fact, he was tired of it, and he didn't ask for it. But some people really go too far! It seems that among the many concubines in Emperor Xianzong's harem, only Old Liu is a person, and the others are not. It's not okay for other concubines to have no great merits, but Empress Wen Zhao is different. The Song family doesn't fight, and Song Gongming doesn't say it, but it doesn't mean he doesn't approve.

Song Gongming was really annoyed. How long had it taken to make the emperor's biological mother the empress? And then there would be another round of trouble to make her co-exist with the emperor. Maybe she would have to be dug up and buried with Emperor Xianzong. Emperor Xianzong had never considered her, and she might not be happy about it.

Song Gongming felt that, like Old Lady Qiu, she was cremated and clean. It's not that we value it, but sometimes, we really have to fight for it.

We should be on guard against serious support: "Empress Wen Zhao should be enshrined in the temple, this is as it should be!"

King Ning nodded.

The left prime minister did not object. There was nothing wrong with the emperor's biological mother. Besides, the emperor was appointed as the heir when he was born, unlike some who could support their mother even if they usurped the throne. What's wrong with that? It's all about interests! What ancient system? The left prime minister sneered.

The emperor nodded and happily decided. For so many years, he didn't care too much, but Lao Liu had to do it this way. Otherwise, there would be many things that couldn't be pressed. Etiquette is sometimes important. So it has to be done.

The emperor liked Yuan Miao more and advised him to eat more. Although there was no meat, there was vegetarian meat.

Zuo Xiang looked at the King of Wei, not knowing what he was thinking, or maybe he was thinking nothing. Perhaps some people thought that the King of Wei was flattering again, and he didn't even care about his own mother.

The emperor then asked Yuan Miao: "What is the posthumous title of the old lady?"

King Wei saw that he was having fun again. He held a large bowl of noodles in his hand and asked casually, "Diao Huang?"

Yu Gu felt that this posthumous title was not as good as one character, and it really didn't need two characters. But the posthumous title could be changed. In the current situation, let's just do it. We can change it when we are happy in a few years. Just like Empress Wen Zhao, didn't she do it for decades? It's okay to let Old Liu wait for a few decades, right?

Gan Peilan and the eldest princess sat aside, not saying anything, thinking that this was good, and that was the only way to give Lao Liu face. Chen Jie was about to die, and a group of people were still fighting for Lao Liu, as if they could win him a virtuous grandson and crown prince.

Yun Cheng said boldly: "Since it is not an imperial posthumous title and is not enshrined in the temple, then there is no need to bury them together."

Prince Wei immediately responded, "They will not be buried together." He and the left prime minister explained, "We cannot give them the opportunity to disturb the late emperor."

Zuo Xiang was shocked: "You actually have such a plan?"

King Wei said solemnly: "I am in the Liu family, and those demons used the people of the Liu family to use evil magic on me."

King Wu said: "It seems that their recent purpose is to do this."

However, the Liu family was in a turmoil, and King Wei cut off half of them with one sword. The rest hid for a while and didn't dare to come out.

The emperor was furious! He was a little crazy: "They are coming for me!" Who would let their ancestors be humiliated?
