To Rule in a Turbulent World

You Miao stepped forward to the couch and said in a low voice: "Sir, there is news from the front line that the Second Emperor has been welcomed back."

Sun Yu panted slowly, opened his eyes trembling, and without knowing where the strength came from, he grabbed You Miao's hand and turned to look at him.You Miao understood everything now, and Sun Yu held on, just to wait for the news from the front line. Now that he heard that the second emperor returned to the court, he was finally able to let go.

You Miao hurriedly shouted to the outside: "Call everyone in the matter! Sir, I want to give instructions for the funeral!"

Sun Yu was still speechless, and after hearing the news, he had a flash of light. As soon as the gate opened, the officials swarmed in, and the whole place was full of people.You Miao took the lead and knelt down, kneeling on the ground for everyone in the matter, and bowed respectfully.

When Sun Yu came to the deadline, his complexion looked a lot better. With a calm expression, he tapped the bedside lightly with his fingers. You Miao raised his head, took the pen and paper from the table, and handed it to Sun Yu.Sun Yu shook his head and tried his best to write a line on the paper.

"Sir, do you still have something to say to your disciples?" You Miao said again.

Sun Yu smiled, handed the pen to You Miao, and held his finger.With a soft sound in the throat, he closed his eyes and drove the crane west.Died at the age of 73.

Crying in the political affairs hall, You Miao held the rice paper, tears fell involuntarily, and wet Sun Yu's will.

He had been prepared many years ago. He had seen You Miao, who had seen countless deaths and sorrows and joys. Sometimes he was even afraid that he would not be able to bear the death of Sun Yu.But this day finally came, there was no imaginary shock, no imaginary pain, everything was logical, and it was a matter of course, just like in a place that no one expected, everything was happening gently and methodically, Sun Yu handed over all the important responsibilities one by one, and he had planned as early as the day he rebuilt the Zhengshitang.

Sun Yu is alone, and now he walks in a graceful manner, leaving only a poem at the end.

"Wang Shibei set the Central Plains Day, and the family sacrifices will never forget to tell Nai Weng."

You Miao didn't know why sadness came from it, she cried so much that she wanted to gag, and suppressed her emotions for a long time, and finally vented all her emotions at the moment of Sun Yu's death.He got up crying, tried his best to calm down, wrote a letter, and notified the Sixth Department.He also sent people to report to Zhao Chao, write notes, prepare documents and mourning posts.

After we had finished crying and retreated, You Miao went in again to accompany Sun Yu's body, asked people to boil water, and wiped Sun Yu's body.The shroud had been bought a long time ago, and You Miao handled Sun Yu's body in person, and after a while, it was announced that His Majesty had retreated early and brought all the civil and military officials over.

Zhao Chao was waiting in the outer hall. According to the rules, he was not allowed to enter, lest the emperor's dragon spirit would rush to the ghost and make Sun Yu's life difficult after his death.Tang Bo came in in person and assisted You Miao to wipe Sun Yu's body. After changing the shroud, he came in with the coffin outside to restrain Sun Yu.The moment the coffin was closed, the Political Affairs Hall burst into tears again.

After crying for a whole morning, the coffin was nailed up, and the coffin stopped.You Miao took a group of colleagues to wear filial piety belts.Only then did Zhao Chao come over in person, he bowed to Sun Yu as his disciple, and the civil and military officials came forward to bow three times.

"Where's You Miao?" Zhao Chao asked.

Tang Bo replied: "I'm packing up my husband's belongings inside, so I'll call him over here."

Zhao Chao said, "I'll go there."

You Miao packed up Sun Yu's belongings with tears in her eyes, and found two letters written by Sun Yu before her death.

One is to arrange the political affairs hall, let Zhao Chao weigh the use, if You Miao can use it, then consider using You Miao to lead the political affairs hall.If You Miao cannot be used, then You Miao will be transferred to Yushitai, Tang Bo will be the head of the political affairs hall, and other people will be assistants. Xie Huike will temporarily take the post of counselor.

The other letter is for the distribution of relics, the collection of calligraphy and painting, and give Tang Bo all of them.And all the books in the room are given to You Miao.Among the four treasures of the study, Sun Yu once copied the "Guidelines for Disciples", and the rest will be distributed to each person in the matter, and the best rabbit hair pen in the study will be used as a souvenir for each person.

Lantian jade, chicken blood jelly and other seal stones were buried with them.On one side, the inkstone with rosy clouds, blue smoke, purple eyes, and the treasure engraved with "Da Dao Wuwei" on the back was bestowed by the emperor 20 years ago and presented to His Majesty.I only hope that His Majesty, seeing this inkstone, can always think of his father and brother living in the north, and work hard to recover the Central Plains.

"What else?" Zhao Chao said.

"No more." You Miao replied, "I explained this painting before I left."

You Miao showed Zhao Chao the two lines of Lu You's poem, Zhao Chao nodded and said, "You can keep it. Put this letter away again, who else has read it?"

You Miao pondered for a while, knowing that Zhao Chao had his own arrangements, and replied: "There should be no one except me. In the entire political affairs hall, only Tang Bo and I can enter Mr.'s room, and Tang Bo probably won't come to look through it."

Zhao Chao took the first letter and was about to tear it up, but after thinking about it, he put it away again. You Miao asked, "The post of political advisor is now vacant. Do you plan to keep it vacant?"

Zhao Chao said in a low voice: "No, I want you to be the prime minister. You must remember not to mention this letter from your husband to other people. I will ask someone to forge a letter and read it at the court, saying that Sun Shen recommended you. "

You Miao was shocked and said: "No! How old am I this year? If you say that, others will not accept it!"

Zhao Chao frowned and said: "So I will use the name of Shen Zhi to say, what are you afraid of? I was not very old when I became the emperor. I need someone to help me, and I should also lift you up. From now on, you will sit on your seat." The position of the teacher..."

You Miao was very disturbed. After all, the decision on this matter was too big. Although it was an excellent opportunity, but under the guise of Sun Yu's will, after all, it was extremely disrespectful to the dead.You Miao said again: "You can't be in a hurry..."

Zhao Chao said calmly: "Don't be afraid, I've already thought about it. First, settle my brother's matter before I can talk about your matter. Don't worry. There are still some days. In these days, you should prepare first."

Zhao Chao patted You Miao on the shoulder, with anticipation in his eyes, You Miao couldn't disobey him at this time, so he nodded anxiously, and Zhao Chao left.

In the afternoon Nie Dan came to worship again. For several days in a row, there was an endless stream of officials who came to mourn Sun Yu.You Miao has a lot of preoccupations, and there are two emperors' matters outside, and she doesn't know if Li Yan has succeeded.Zhao Chao also wanted to forge a will, which really made him unable to eat and sleep, and visitors came in droves to listen to You Miao's words.

Now is a situation where the undercurrent is surging, and no one knows where the next step will be and where the apocalypse will return.However, whether the prince or Zhao Chao is in power, the status of the political affairs hall is very important.The officials were also not sure whether the prince would continue to use You Miao—after all, they had heard about the incident in Beijing, and many people from the Six Departments were rescued, and the former princelings also had a very good relationship with You Miao.There is no guarantee that You Miao will be reused when the prince returns.

You Miao had a lot of things in her mind, but there was an endless stream of visitors coming to her door, so she could only forcefully smile and receive them politely.Sun Yu is also considered to be a long-lived man, and he had a white wedding ceremony. The mourning ceremony was five taels or ten taels. The students of the Imperial Academy jointly sent an elegiac couplet "Gaofengliangjie", and sealed 20 taels of silver. You Miao only accepted it. Two or two, the rest was refunded, not daring to accept money from poor students.

For the rest of the officials, You Miao looked at them according to their wealth, and the rich and wealthy gentry would accept them all, and it was inconvenient for honest officials to accept more.Calculated on the first day, there are so many things, there are thousands of taels.You Miao discussed with Tang Bo that the government affairs hall should be slightly repaired with the money, and all the remaining money should be put into the treasury to support poor students.

The imperial examination will be reopened next year, and the next fund of Zhengshitang will be prepared to cultivate the pillars of the country. This is good, and it must be in line with Sun Yu's last wish.This night, Tang Bo kept vigil, and You Miao really worried too much, and went back to the house and fell asleep, not caring about anything else.
