Standing in front of the couch where my father's eyes were closed and he didn't move.

Ji Kang felt a moment of confusion, took a few steps back, and almost fell.

"Take care, Your Majesty! ……”

Later, when Ju Xin and Su Yu and other ministers saw this, they stepped forward together and helped Ji Kang to sit on a chair.

Ji Kang was stunned for a moment, looking at his mother, who was lying on his father's body, still crying bitterly.

It's getting clearer and clearer in my mind.

Now that he is the king of a country, he must not show the slightest cowardice and panic.

People in the world are always like this. When your parents are alive, you always feel that it doesn't matter, and even sometimes, you hate their nagging; But when they're all gone, you realize you've lost the person you love the most in the world.

Ji Kang feels the same way now.

Facing the world of great contention.

From now on, my father will no longer be able to help himself, support himself, and support himself.

There is no one who is willing to stand in front of him and protect himself from the wind and rain.

There is no one to share the burden of Yan Guo for him anymore, and everything has to rely on himself.

Ji Kang didn't cry anymore, because when his father was leaving, he had already warned himself: "As the king of Yan, don't cry." ”

"Someone."

"The minister is here." Ju Xin, Su belly and other ministers responded together.

"According to the edict of my father, a big funeral will be held."

"The ministers obey the edict."

Ji Kang stood up, came to his mother's side, and whispered to his mother, who was still crying, "Mother, please stop mourning! Your father is gone, you have to take care of your body, your father definitely doesn't want to see you so sad now! ……”

"Kang'er ......"

The mother hugged Ji Kang, put her head on Ji Kang's shoulder, and cried bitterly.

Ji Kang also hugged his mother gently. At this moment, he really felt, not only on his shoulders, but also in his heart, there was a real heavy feeling.

Yes! Father is gone, father is gone!

From now on, I will have to take care of my mother and even my family by myself!

I can only take care of the tens of millions of subjects of Yan Kingdom by myself!

I can only take care of the Jiangshan Sheji of this Yan country by myself!

This is my unshirkable responsibility, and it is also my due responsibility!

He is the lord of a country in Yan Kingdom! It is also the last reliance of all the subjects of Yan Kingdom!

Ji Kang looked at the attendant Ling Wang Cong who was standing beside him, and instructed him:

"Let the Queen Mother go to the back of the dormitory to rest, don't let the Queen Mother be too sad."

"Obey the edict." The attendant ordered Wang Cong to bow down and agree.

After Wang Cong walked out of his father's dormitory with his mother Ji Zhao in his arms, Ji Kang said slowly to the ministers of Yan Kingdom:

"Ladies and gentlemen, my father has been suffering from illness for a long time and has passed away. The widow thinks of his father's voice, just like in front of him, which is heart-wrenching! As a son of man, it is the duty of a widow to be filial and courteous. ”

"It's just that before his father passed away, he had issued an edict to change the funeral customs of my Yan country, and the widow couldn't disobey his father's edict! The widow had no choice but to hold his father's funeral according to his father's deathbed edict! The grief in my heart is indescribable! ”

Ju Xin, Su belly, Lu Zhonglian, Rong Yan and other court ministers comforted Ji Kangdao together:

"Please stop mourning, Your Majesty! Putting national affairs first! ”

Ji Kang nodded, and continued to Ju Xin and the other ministers: "Ladies and gentlemen, my Yan Kingdom has suddenly undergone a great change, and the widow is really sad, and all kinds of worries may not be enough. ”

"The widow decreed that the ministers of the Military Aircraft Pavilion would meet with the ministers of the court to preside over all matters related to the funeral of the father. As soon as possible, the name of the father and the various etiquette of the father's funeral were set and executed after reporting to the widow. ”

The four ministers of Ju Xin, Su Belly, Lu Zhonglian, and Rong Yi stepped forward together, bowed down and said to Ji Kang:

"The ministers obey the edict."

Ji Kang paused, and then said to the old manager Ji Mao and Huang Yong:

"Spread the edict of the widow, so far in this special period, my Yan country is on alert. At this time, the officials of the counties and counties are not allowed to move around each other, they should stick to their posts, they do not have to come to Jidu, they can organize their own sacrifices in the local area, and worship the ancestors from afar. ”

"The personnel of the supervisory bureaus and intelligence bureaus of all counties and counties should strengthen supervision and management. If it is found that there is chaos, rumors, or even violations of law and discipline, they will be killed. ”

When all the ministers of the Yan Kingdom heard this, their hearts were tight, and they could all feel the killing intent in Ji Kang's words.

The old manager Ji Mao and the director of the intelligence bureau Huang Yong stepped forward, bowed to the ground and said in unison: "The minister obeys the edict." ”

The other ministers of the court also bowed together and said, "The ministers obey the edict." ”

Since ancient times, China has paid attention to filial piety and ruled the world with filial piety. "Filial piety, the beginning of etiquette." This kind of statement is not a joke, but is embodied in all aspects of people's lives.

Especially in this era, the funeral is so cumbersome that it is simply impossible to describe it with pen and ink.

There are not a few people who are in debt because of funerals.

In fact, people have long suffered from this, especially the lower classes.

Ji Kang had known about this problem for a long time, but he couldn't stop and change it.

Because of this kind of thing, you don't dare and can't care about it!

Otherwise, a big hat of unfilial piety will be buttoned up for you, and your fame, reputation, etc., will be all over.

But because of this deathbed edict of Yan King Ji Ming, Ji Kang was given the opportunity to change this funeral custom in Yan Kingdom.

The efficiency of the Yan State Military Machine Pavilion and the Imperial Hall is very high.

In just one day, the name of Ji Kang's father Ji Ming was set, as well as the new etiquette and process of Yan Guo's funeral.

Ji Kang's father, Ji Ming, is nicknamed "Xiaocheng".

Compared with Ji Kang's previous life, there is one more word "Cheng", which is very powerful.

Whether it is "filial piety" or "success", it is all a virtue.

"Filial piety" means good, and "Cheng" means great contribution to the country.

This nickname made Ji Kang and his mother Ji Zhao very satisfied.

Regarding the new funeral etiquette and procedures, under the premise that Ji Kang used his father's edict as a reason.

Under the tacit understanding of everyone, the provisions in the original "Zhou Li" were greatly simplified.

The new-style funeral of Yan Guo has removed many things.

Of course, the level of the deceased's clothing, coffins, and even graves cannot be changed.

As for the stipulated dates of seven-day, five-day, and three-day funerals, this cannot be changed casually.

However, the original burial dates of July, May, and March were changed to seven, five, and three days according to the edict of Ji Kang's father, Ji Ming's father. Moreover, the original dozens of funeral etiquette have also been greatly "condensed".

At least from now on, the ordinary people of Yan Kingdom will hold a funeral, and they will not be "bankrupt".

As for the day when Ji Kang officially ascended the throne.

According to the original rules, the funeral must be held one month after the funeral can be held at a later date.

However, after discussing with the courtiers, the military machine pavilion of the Yan State was set to be held on the sixth day of the third month on the two most powerful reasons: "obeying the edict of the first king" and "the country cannot be left without an owner for a day".
