Wishing You Eternal Happiness Chapter 499: : 1 word side by side king
The treasury is not empty for a day or two.
A new funeral would require a lot of silver. They would have to use less money as much as they gave King You. They would even need to pay for it out of their own pockets, and other matters could be discussed.
When it comes to money, no one wants to harm their own interests.
A new funeral is also a labor of love. Logically speaking, the ceremony should be carried out according to the prince's regulations.
But!
First of all, His Highness King You is a hero and a good general, and the Zhou Dynasty has always had a precedent of pursuing heroes.
His Royal Highness Prince You is already a prince. Any further titles should be the same as those of Prince Regent. Any funeral arrangements should be based on the title after the title.
Secondly, His Highness Prince You suffered an unjust injustice. On the basis of the ceremony of the Prince Regent, the court also wanted an [extra] generous burial.
As a result, His Royal Highness Youwang’s funeral ceremony may have to catch up with the national mourning.
It takes a lot of effort and no benefit at all to do this. Who would be happy?
Furthermore, Yin Huaixi is extremely talented and beautiful.
A group of old ministers in the cabinet, who have been in high positions for a long time, tend to rely on their elders and look down upon Yin Huaixi, a young and sick boy.
But no one is stupid enough to say these thoughts in public.
The clamor will never end.
Xia Yansheng, who had already lost his temper due to old age, poor mental health, and poor health, raised his eyelids and said: "Yes, it's noisy, no, it's noisy. Apart from arguing, don't you know how to use your brain?"
There was a sudden silence in the cabinet——
Xia Yansheng looked at Yu Zongshen sitting next to him: "What did you say?"
Yu Zong carefully played with walnuts and paused slightly: "You should also take a look at the timing. You are also well aware of the situation in the north. The situation in the north is currently unstable. It is urgent to stabilize the north. King You The follow-up to the case is urgent. If the situation in the north is missed, no one will be able to bear the consequences."
All the cabinet ministers remained silent.
It’s not that they don’t understand this, it’s just that when it comes to their own interests, they inevitably have a lot to say.
Yu Zongshen continued: "The emperor proposed a long time ago that the tomb of King You should be moved to the imperial mausoleum. Do you really think that moving the tomb to the imperial mausoleum will be the end of it? Don't you need to prepare a ceremony for you? King You? His Highness died a disgraceful death. Moving the tomb would be disgraceful, and the royal family would be disgraced. What would be damaged is the reputation and majesty of the emperor."
The old cabinet ministers had nothing to say. No matter how **** the fights were in the cabinet, no one dared to stand up and object whenever the emperor's interests were involved.
Yu Zongshen lowered his eyes: "Yin Huaixi didn't want His Royal Highness Prince You to enter the imperial mausoleum, so he proposed a new funeral. The funeral was a grand ceremony, which restored the dignity of the royal family and the emperor's reputation and majesty. It doesn't matter whether he can enter the imperial mausoleum or not. ."
Entering the imperial mausoleum is a great honor for the descendants of the royal family.
But Yin Huaixi just wanted His Highness Prince You to be buried forever in the borders of Youzhou.
Xia Yansheng has finalized the decision: "Just follow Yin Huaixi's wishes."
"Re-burial is also in line with the etiquette system. Let the Ministry of Rites prepare sacrificial texts to record the merits of King You, so as to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth, inform the people, give instructions to future generations, encourage ministers, and assist the country and the country. This is a good thing and should be done. ”
"During the mourning period, the court will be suspended for three days to show that King You's ancestors are virtuous, have made meritorious deeds, and are worthy of their position. The king, courtiers, and people will mourn together with the whole country."
"Prince You and the princess had a deep love as husband and wife, and it is a good story that they died together in adversity. Princess You was buried in Youzhou, and it was natural for Prince You to return to Youzhou for a grand burial. I think the emperor would understand and would not be too demanding. ."
"After the funeral, I came to serve as the mountain envoy and led the ministers to prepare the funeral and hanging offerings in Beijing. Then the etiquette envoy, the ceremonial envoy, the lu book envoy, the bridge and the pass officials, etc., all supported the spirit of King You back to Youzhou. He is responsible for the burial site, writing the name of the mausoleum, mourning book and other funeral arrangements. He must do this properly."
The room was so quiet that you could hear a pindrop——
Xia Yansheng continued: "The honor that should be given has also been given twice as much. There is no need to have an unpleasant quarrel with Yin Huaixi because of a dead person. In front of the emperor, there is no difference between inside and outside."
Yu Zongshen also expressed his position: "It's been half a year since June, and now it's already November. If we don't finish the matter as soon as possible, will we still keep it for the New Year?"
Li Qiguang’s case is still under trial, and it is still unknown how many people will be involved.
The subsequent case of Song Xiuwen will also require a lot of troubles.
The court will be in chaos again by then.
The cabinet stepped up its time, and after renegotiating and finalizing the decision, the court meeting on the second day presented it to the emperor.
After the emperor read it, he showed it to Yin Huaixi.
Yin Huaixi had no objection and thanked him on the spot.
The matter was settled in this way.
Three days later, the emperor personally issued an edict, announcing to the world: "My dear emperor, I have been in the imperial court for more than thirty years. Inheriting the merits of the ancestors and the legacy of Emperor Gaozong, I sincerely follow the laws and regulations of the imperial court and govern our country Guangbo. ."
"Cultivating soldiers and armor, suppressing foreign tribes and barbarians, and doing great service to the country;"
"Recruit talented people, manage the situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the resurgence of the Zhou Dynasty, and contribute to the people;"
"Establishing the state of the country, strictly using clan members to govern harshly and authoritatively, and doing meritorious service to the ancestors;"
“Suspend the punishment, strengthen the administration of officials, and pardon the world, so that grievances can be redressed, unjust cases can be investigated, and meritorious officials can be punished;”
“Minimizing taxes and reducing taxes, encouraging farming, rectifying taxes and servitude, providing relief for famines, and being considerate of the people’s sentiments will make lasting contributions;
"Bu Na Se, who has been in power for more than thirty years, has left the harem vacant, reduced the money in the palace, and governed the world. His merit lies in virtue;"
"..."
Yangyang Sasa wrote an edict, which started with the emperor's benevolent rule after he ascended the throne, and then mentioned the case of King You.
"However, the state supplies are vast and the troops are insufficient, so I made some mistakes;"
"The ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government formed cliques for personal gain, and protected each other at all levels, so that the King of the North was persecuted by the traitorous party and suffered unjust injustice. I made mistakes in governance, investigation, and morality;"
"The king of Dingbei Yin practiced literary virtues and martial arts..."
The following is a long chapter, which fully describes the moral achievements of Dingbei King Yin Lixing, as well as several large-scale and complete victories in his life, and every word is full of beauty and virtue.
"…then, Yin Lixing restored the ancestral temple, and named Yin Lixing [one word side by side king], and named him King Li of Zhou. He could not share the preciousness of destiny with me in life, and share the country and land with me in death. They are comparable."
"I hereby declare it to the world, to comfort the heroic spirit of King Zhou Li, to highlight the virtues of King Zhou Li, to encourage the officials, to be loyal to the king, to govern the country, and to comply with the sufferings of the people. I admire this!"
After the edict, which was six feet (about two meters) long, was read out, Zhang Bang arrived at Chang'an Gate.
Relevant documents were also distributed to all states and counties across the country through the imperial court, and officials in each state were ordered to read out and publish lists to inform all people in the world.
The emperor issued an edict: "The former Marquis of Weining~IndoMTL.com~ is now Marquis of Ningyuan, and together with the Marquis of Changxing, they deceived the superiors and deceived the inferiors, stole the military exploits of King Zhou Li and his son Yin Huaixi, concealed military information, and criminals deceived the king. ."
Uncle Ning Yuan was kneeling on the ground, his body shaking like chaff, but he didn't even dare to take a breath.
————————Digression——————
As far as the edicts unearthed so far and discovered by the people are concerned, they are basically about two meters in length. It is impossible to forge edicts.
First of all, ancient emperors rarely issued edicts on the spot. They always transmitted oral edicts first, and then the imperial edicts were issued within ten days. Why?
From the time the oral edict was issued, the imperial edict had to go through more than thirty tedious steps from production to completion. Each link has a relevant person in charge. Only after the inspection is correct, it will be sent to the next inspection agency, which one If a step goes wrong, the relevant people will take responsibility.
This has the highest probability and ensures the authenticity of the imperial edict.
Of course, in order to prevent false transmission of the imperial edict, the first word of the imperial edict, the word "Feng", which is carried by heaven, is confirmed based on the position changes of the day's astrology, weather and other factors, so there is no one in the imperial edict. The word "Feng" is the same.
And this kind of secret is in the hands of the royal power. Without succession, it is impossible to know.
There are also strict control standards for the materials used in the imperial edict, and they are exclusively supplied to the royal family. The specifications, craftsmanship, and raw materials are all extremely limited, making it impossible to imitate.
With a difference of a few miles, a mistake of a thousand miles, no fake imperial edict can escape the eyes of the institutions that control the imperial edict.
