Lin Qing and other ministers rushed to the palace of the Supreme Emperor, and saw that the entire palace had been pulled up with white tents. After entering the main hall, they saw the mourning hall in the main hall. After a glance, everyone quickly calmed down and quickly found their seats , and then waited silently, not daring to make a sound.
When everyone was here, Zhou Yan helped Empress Dowager Yang out of the inner room, and all the ministers hurriedly saluted.
Empress Dowager Yang walked up to the Supreme Emperor, Oh no, it is now the late emperor's spirit, and said lightly: "Excuse me."
Everyone got up, and then listened to Empress Dowager Yang say: "The first emperor abandoned Ai's family and the emperor today. Although Ai's family and the emperor were sad, the affairs of the late emperor should not be sloppy. I hope all the nobles will do their best."
All the ministers hurriedly cupped their hands and said: "The ministers should do their best."
Then Zhou Yan, who supported Empress Dowager Yang, said: "Where is the Minister of Rites?"
Shen Ru stepped out from the courtiers, saluted and said: "The minister is here."
"The Ministry of Rites will still arrange the affairs of the father and the emperor this time," Zhou Yan said.
"The minister obeys the order." Shen Ru said, all kinds of ceremonies, canonization, and funeral are the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites.
Zhou Yan asked again: "Where is the Minister of Industry?"
The Minister of the Ministry of Industry also came out and said, "Is the minister here?"
"Is the mausoleum of the emperor ready?" Zhou Yan asked.
"Return to Your Majesty, the tomb of the first emperor has been prepared since the first emperor ascended the throne, and it has already been prepared." The Minister of the Ministry of Industry said.
Zhou Yan nodded and said, "I'm relieved now, and the next thing will be arranged by the Ministry of Rites and the cabinet."
The elder of the cabinet led all the ministers to respond: "The ministers will obey the order."
Then Zhou Yan helped Empress Dowager Yang back to the inner room.
After sending off the Holy One and the Empress Dowager, Shen Ru discussed the process of the national funeral with several elders and some ministers. Since the example of the Tai/Zu Emperor was followed before, everyone did not discuss for a long time, and the process was roughly determined. After getting down, Shen Ru wrote down the procedure of the national funeral in person, and asked the guarding eunuch next to him to send it into the inner room. After the new emperor approved the memorial, he told the ministers about the procedure of the national funeral in the hall. and etiquette.
Lin Qing listened carefully in the team, and roughly summed it up, that is: From tomorrow, all officials above the fifth rank in the capital will go to the palace to cry for seven days, and stop for seven to forty-nine days. On the 50th, the funeral.
After hearing this, Lin Qing breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that Empress Dowager Yang and the Holy Majesty did not make too much of a mess this time. If they are like some emperors who want to be filial sons, they will suffer for ninety-nine and eighty-one days. up.
Shen Ru read the scriptures in front of everyone, and then specially warned: "Next year is the year of national mourning, and the Ministry of Rites and the cabinet will issue an edict later, prohibiting all marriages, banquets, drinking, and carnival. Lead by example."
All the ministers hurriedly responded: "Yes."
After Shen Ru finished speaking, these ministers have nothing to do. Today is the clan's vigil, and tomorrow is the ministers, so the ministers hurried home and prepared for tomorrow's mourning.
After Lin Qing returned home, she saw that everyone from Wang Yan to the servants had changed into plain clothes and nodded.
After entering the house, Wang Yan rushed up to meet her and said, "You're back so soon?"
Lin Qing said: "Today is the clan's vigil, and tomorrow it will be the ministers."
"How many days will I cry?" Wang Yan asked.
"Crying for seven days, stopping for forty-nine days." Lin Qing said.
After hearing this, Wang Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Your Majesty is merciful."
Crying is not an easy job, after a long time, it will definitely be a pain.
Thinking about the hard work of the crying spirit, Wang Yan hurriedly said to Lin Qing: "Erlang will go to the back room to sleep for a while, and the concubine will prepare knee pads and thick robes for Erlang later, or the crying spirit will definitely suffer tomorrow."
Lin Qingzheng was suffering from sleepiness, so he nodded and went to sleep in the back room.
the second day
Lin Qing knelt in the main hall, listening to the servants directing the mourning. When the servant shouted "cry," the ministers began to cry, and the servant shouted "Bai," and the ministers began to kowtow.
Every move is like pulling a puppet's strings. Lin Qing thought while weeping.
He was still a little sad about the death of the Supreme Emperor. After all, it was the first time he attended the funeral in these years. Although he was not familiar with the Supreme Emperor, he was still instinctively uncomfortable when he heard the death. But when he was ordered to mourn like this, Lin Qing felt nothing at all, he felt that they were like a group of actors, performing a ridiculous big show for the world to see.
Lin Qing and other ministers cried in the main hall for seven days. They went to the palace every day to cry for funerals before dawn, and they could only go home when it was dark at night. It was worse than sitting in the hall.Lin Qing couldn't help but feel lucky at this time. Fortunately, he is now a third-rank official and can cry in the hall. If he were to cry outside the hall with those fourth-rank and fifth-rank ones, with the current temperature, he might already have a cold.
You must know that you cannot ask for leave to mourn for the first emperor, even if you have a cold and a high fever, you have to grit your teeth and persevere. Of course, there is one exception, and that is Empress Dowager Yang. After the death of the first emperor, Empress Dowager Yang fell ill due to excessive grief, and was so ill that she couldn't get out of bed in the Compassionate Ning Palace.
?But everyone also understood that after all, a husband and wife can be kind for a hundred days. Now that the late emperor passed away, it is natural for the empress dowager to be sad, so the courtiers not only had to go to the Palace of Compassion to Condolence, but also advised the empress dowager to take good care of herself.
The seven-day mourning spirit came to an end soon. Whether it was the senior ministers or the fifth-rank officials, they all breathed a sigh of relief. The next thing is to stop the spirit, and these ministers don't need to care about it.
When Lin Qing returned home, Wang Yan greeted him, and skillfully handed Lin Qing a bowl of hot ginger soup. Lin Qing took it and blew it a few times before pouring it down in one gulp. Feeling the warmth in his stomach, he was relieved. He took a deep breath, sat down and said, "At any rate, it's over."
"That's right. I heard that many ministers in Beijing are sick. I've been worried every day for the past few days. Fortunately, Erlang is fine." Wang Yan also said with some fear.
"It's winter now. Although Jinling is not in the north, ordinary people can't stand the dampness. What's more, all the ministers are pampered and pampered. How can they bear this crime?" Poured a bowl of ginger soup and drank it.
Wang Yan asked the maid to get some hot soup again, and then said: "A notice has been posted outside a few days ago, next year will be a national funeral, and all marriages are prohibited. Fortunately, we haven't set a date for the Qi family, or we have to return it." Change it again."
"However, I still send someone to Qi's house to say something, and set the date after the national funeral, so that people don't think that we have never heard from our family." Lin Qing said.
Wang Yan nodded and said, "This concubine also has the same intention."
The two discussed their marriage for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, they were about to have dinner when they saw Xiao Lin hurried in from the door and said, "Master, something happened outside."
"What's the matter?" Lin Qing was startled.
Seeing that Lin Qing had misunderstood, Xiao Lin hurriedly said, "It's the little one who said it quickly. It's not that something happened to our house, but outside, officers and soldiers surrounded Chengwang's and Daiwang's mansions. The little one just went out to buy and heard it with his own ears. "
After hearing this, Lin Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Don't be so surprised when you speak next time. By the way, what's the reason for being surrounded?"
"I heard that it was King Cheng and King Dai who had mischievous intentions in front of the late emperor." Xiao Lin said.
Lin Qing: ¡¡¡
It seems that His Majesty finally couldn't bear it anymore! (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
