Chapter 1293 Aftermath and State Affairs(1/2)
After dawn, the queen, prince and princess arrived first and stroking the bed and crying.
Then came Taiwei Pei Tai.
Shao Xun, who was sitting next to the couch, stood up to greet him, and the king and his subjects respected each other.
"Your Majesty..." Pei tries to salute.
"You will do it yourself." Shao Xun nodded.
Pei Bu held silk in his hand and gently came to the bed of the Supreme Queen. He saluted the silent emperor first, and then covered the silk on the Queen Queen's face.
This is a normal process, called "genus", that is, a very thin silk covers a human face to verify breathing.
After the test, you can get a little restraint, and then put on new clothes for the deceased, move them to the bed, cover them with brocade, and confess your grief to your relatives.
Considering that this is the Supreme Empress, civil and military officials, ordered women and relatives to go to the palace to worship, and those who are close to each other will be mourned.
The entire funeral ceremony was organized by a female official in the inner court and Taichang Temple.
Shao Xun came to the yard, slowly walking, silent.
A moment later, Taichang Qing Cui met him and asked for a few questions.
After hearing this, Shao Xun said, "How to organize the national funeral during the Jin Dynasty?"
"Since Cao Wei, we have advocated a simple burial and everything is simple." Cui Yu said: "The death of Emperor Wu of Jin is simple. Three days after the funeral, the crown prince (Sima Zhong) ascended the throne and changed the reign to be amnesty. The ministers reported the matter as usual, and did not prohibit marriage and banquets."
Shao Xun nodded and said, "My mother was kind-hearted. She repeatedly gave me money and property during her lifetime. She advised me to pardon her sinful wife and let her go out of the palace several times. She would not want to see the 21 states of Daliang, so she banned the wedding banquet. She was inconvenient to the people, and she would not be happy under the dark soil."
"Yes." Cui Yu got the result and said, "After Cao Wei, all the burial supplies such as jade clothes were abandoned and not used. This is the matter."
"Come on," said Shao Xun, "I will choose a posthumous title for Dr. Taichang, and my mother will definitely like it very much."
"Yes." Cui Yuwen asked a few questions and left after a while.
As the sun is noon, more and more people are coming.
Zong Zhengqing and uncle Liu Shan were the first to arrive.
"Your Majesty, does Sister Ah have a last word?" Liu Shan was supported by his two sons and burst into tears.
Shao Xun took two steps forward, held Liu Shan's arm, and said, "My mother left late at night and she had no last words."
"That's the wish, there's no regrets anymore." Liu Shan nodded slightly, then entered the mourning hall, cried and knelt on the ground.
The two sons immediately stepped forward to comfort him without looking at Shao Xun's instructions.
After the worship, he helped Liu Shan into the side hall to sing for a while.
Prime Minister Wang Yan also came early.
After the king and his ministers met, Wang Yan went to worship for a while, and then sighed: "In the past, when I first met the Supreme Queen in the Green Willow Garden, it has been thirty years in a flash. Before the great ceremony, I saw that the family was full of children and grandchildren, and the country was booming and without regrets. The world was at its peak, so I would like to ask Your Majesty to express my grief and put the people first."
"Yifu, you must take care of yourself, too." Shao Xun said as he looked at Wang Yan, who was becoming more and more depressed.
After Wang Yan left, some ministers ordered their wives to come and worship.
A group of officials from Taichang Temple took over the entire funeral ceremony, guided and received the ceremony, and were organized.
It didn't calm down a little until afternoon.
Shao Xun helped his father to sit down in the side hall, looking at each other speechlessly.
Liu Shan walked over, patted Shao's father's hand, and said, "Brother-in-law, don't be too depressed, sister doesn't want to see you like this. Xiaozhu is so capable, and the Shaw's family business is at its peak. What's the regret? I'm old and can't get on the horse and can't carry a knife, but my children and grandchildren are still there. Brother-in-law, don't worry, the Liu family's children work together to protect the Shaw's family."
Shao Xun glanced at his uncle, sighed inwardly, and said nothing.
This is for his father and for him.
At this moment, he didn't think there was anything wrong with his uncle's words. In the past, he fought with Liu Han, and his uncle led his army to stay in Shangdang.
At critical moments, relatives are more trustworthy.
Shao Xun left the space to the two old men and came to the yard himself.
He only felt irritated, but he didn't know the specific reason until he saw Yu Wenjun in plain clothes.
"Husband." Yu Wenjun hugged him gently, raised his face, and said seriously: "Husband, you still have me. I will accompany you, always."
Shao Xun gently stroked her face, as if he saw the girl hiding behind a tree peeking at him. For a moment, he felt that the figures of thousands of princes and his wife appeared in the distance. Shao Xun did not look up to see, but his little dissatisfaction with the prince in his heart disappeared.
Nothing for anything else, just for the wife around you who is full of his eyes.
He is so lucky in this life.
The ministers and the wife came for three consecutive days.
Three days later, Xiao Lian ended.
Those who are restrained will never see you again.
Those who are restrained after three days are to be born. If they do not have a birth after three days, they will not be born. Those who are far away from each other can also arrive.
The first three days were Xiaolian, and he used his clothes to cover the dead.
The next four days are Dalian, and the deceased is put into the coffin to accompany the things used during his lifetime.
In ancient times, the emperor was buried in seven days and in seven months.
Funeral period, the coffin is suspended for waiting for burial. The funeral period is uncertain, at least it can be suspended for several days, and at most it can be decades.
When will the Supreme Empress be buried? Everything is presided over by Taichang Temple. It is currently suspended in the underground palace northwest of Xianju Hall.
All the princes who were working outside should have set off to return to Beijing now. They will definitely be indispensable on the day the Empress of the Supreme Court was buried.
As for the burial place, because Mangshan was already very dense, Shaw Brothers did not join in the fun, so he used Luhun Mountain as the royal tomb.
This mountain is located in Luhun County. It was the settlement of Luhun Rong in the Spring and Autumn Period, and was later destroyed by Jin State, but the place name was left behind.
Next to Luhun Mountain is Guangchengze, which is considered to be the place where Shao Xun started his career and is quite memorable.
Sima Xiuyi was originally buried in Guangchengze, but later, with Shao Xun's intervention, he was buried in Luhun Mountain, but outside the scope of the royal tomb.
The reason for this is that Shao Xun remembered Sima Xiuyi's words before his death: "I want to be closer to you."
The Lu family of Xiurong was also buried, which is also located in Luhun Mountain, but is not the main cemetery under construction, but is a separate tomb.
Located next to the main tomb.
If there is no accident, the Lord Tomb will be the joint tomb of Shao Xun and Yu Wenjun in the future.
*******
After the funeral of the coffin was suspended, Shao Xun lived in the Xianju Hall for another time, mainly with his father.
Although his father's energy and spirit fell sharply, he was stronger than he thought.
In mid-March, I asked Buxun to go to the previous dynasty quickly to avoid major events.
As the emperor, Shao Xun's mourning period was changed from day to month, and the so-called nine months were actually only nine days.
But he still pays attention to the influence.
After the pregnant concubine gave birth to a child, she no longer reported it to the previous dynasty, but only reported it to Taichang Temple, which Zongzheng Temple knew about.
As for the reason, of course, there are no specific legal provisions for treating endogenous children, but it is a consensus established by social conventions.
Taking the top three years of mourning (actually twenty-seven months) as an example, during the mourning period, a filial son has an important requirement that he "do not enter the inner room."
Although in actual implementation, many people do not abide by the rules and have children in the filial period, it doesn’t matter if anyone has discovered that.
If you find out, you will be criticized.
When Chen Fan of the Later Han Dynasty was the prefect of Le'an, he heard that there was a person in the county who was a filial son who was a filial son in the tomb passage and kept mourning for his parents for twenty years.
Chen Fan admired him very much, so he went to the cemetery to visit him. He found that all five sons of this person were born during the mourning period of 20 years. Maybe he was born in the tomb passage and was fooled by himself. He angrily scolded him for "confusing the public when he was visiting and slandering ghosts and gods."
Sima Pu governed the world with filial piety and further strengthened mourning etiquette. However, some people can't help but love each other, so they gave birth to children during the mourning period, and most of them hide and do not repay them, trying not to let outsiders know about them, and even some ruthless people drowned their children directly.
So how to calculate pregnancy outside of the mourning period, and having children during the mourning period? Don’t worry, children can calculate pregnancy.
The mourning ceremony developed to the Tang Dynasty, and further compiled the regulations of Wei Pu and Northern Dynasties, and wrote legal provisions: "Those who die in their parents' children are all considered to be pregnant within twenty-seven months. If the parents' children are pregnant before they die, even if they give birth in their children in their children, they will not sit. Even if they are born after taking the baby after taking the baby, they will be considered as taking the baby and being pregnant within their children, and they will offend according to the law."
In other words, the definition of "deceased child" is a person who is pregnant during the mourning period.
The parents were pregnant before their death and were born during the mourning period, and it was fine.
Those who are born outside the mourning period but are pregnant during the mourning period are guilty.
No legal provisions were written at this time, but there was also public opinion.
In Shao Xun's harem, Yinan, Zhongshan, is eight months pregnant, and Zhuge Wenbiao is more than four months pregnant. Both of them are considered dead children.
But Shao Xun still paid attention to the influence and only informed two departments after the child was born.
From now on, he will follow the rules as usual, but he will try to wear plain clothes, not drink alcohol, not have fun, and not marry.
Most importantly, abstinence by the end of November this year.
So he moved directly to Guanfeng Hall, met in the front hall during the day, asked questions, and slept in the bedroom behind the main hall at night.
The eldest son, Jindao Man, was still on the way, but he wrote a memorial halfway through and sent an envoy to Bianliang first.
Shao Xun opened his eyes and found that it was about the Miao Island Island.
