Chapter 368: The Cry of the Goryeo Envoy
Zhang asked Ambassador Hou Dongfang to send a letter of condolence to the funeral group of the Great Song Dynasty government and send condolence gifts.
The state funeral etiquette of the Great Song Dynasty is far simpler than that of other dynasties, but it is cumbersome enough in the eyes of Zhang Islander.
On the day of his death, Jia Pingzhang led the formation of a funeral group, set up the five envoys of the mountain tomb, he personally served as the envoy of the mountain tomb, first determined the name, the temple number and the mausoleum number, and then wrote the text work such as mourning with the other four envoys, and then the five envoys gathered the ministers together to read the edict of the Emperor Daxing in the palace.
In the edict, Song Duzong designated his second son, Zhao, who was only eight years old? (pronounced as obvious) ascended the throne, and also said some positive advice to encourage the new emperor, and also proposed that if he grew up too early and the new emperor was young, the empress dowager Xie would be the assistant government.
It's a balancing act.
Zhao Duzong has a total of three minor sons: Zhao Yu, born to Yang Shufei, is 11 years old, Zhao Yu, born to Empress Quan, is 8 years old, and Zhao Yu, born to Yu Xiurong, is 7 years old.
Zhao? is born to the real queen, of course, he must be chosen as the successor.
However, the power of the Quanshi family was too great, and Song Duzong was obviously worried that it would be unfavorable to the new emperor in the future, so he appointed Xie Daoqing, the empress dowager whom he admired, to assist the government.
Song Duzong seemed to have been prepared, and he had already given his second son the titles of Jiaguo Gong and General Zuowei.
After reading the edict, the ministers wept and mourned under the leadership of Jia Pingzhang------ others didn't know, Jia Pingzhang could really cry, maybe subconsciously, he had already obeyed his arrangement, and he was afraid that he would leave the official family of the court as his own relatives!
After everyone cried, the ceremony of the new emperor's accession to the throne began immediately at the east step of the palace, and the ministers immediately expressed their allegiance to the new emperor, and finally Jia Pingzhang withdrew with the ministers.
Then, under the auspices of Jia Pingzhang, obituaries were issued to the offices of major organs across the country, and at the same time, they also had to mourn foreign countries.
Unlike other dynasties, the Great Song Dynasty did not need local leaders to go to the funeral for fear of affecting the operation of the local government, so they only needed to do some necessary mourning ceremonies in the local area.
As for reporting to foreign countries, it is not necessary to send a special envoy, but to directly order the nearest authority to inform the foreign country.
If a foreign envoy comes to mourn, that is, a foreign envoy will be sent to mourn, there will be a special person to receive it, and you can pay tribute in front of the throne of God, and after the completion of it, a certain amount of return gift will be issued under the arrangement of the privy deputy envoy.
Because the national funeral of the Great Song Dynasty has the tradition of entering the palace every seven days, that is, the ministers have to enter the palace once every seven days and cry for the ceremony, and it will end after 7749 days.
In other words, all the ministers can remove the mourning clothes.
During this period, there are also small thrifts, big thrifts, finished clothes, small dian, big dian------ well, a set of processes!
Then by the exercise to find experts who understand the five elements of yin and yang, go to various places to investigate according to the line, find a suitable burial place----- most suitable for them found a place in the Huiji area, named Yongshao Mausoleum.
Of course, there are still some processes for the construction of imperial tombs, which will not be mentioned here, and the owner of Liuqiu Island Zhang watched the Great Song Dynasty government act in accordance with the tradition step by step, and there was no way at all.
Fortunately, the Great Song Dynasty implemented a dual-track system of mourning periods, which means that the emperor's mourning period is indeed three years or twenty-seven months, but after a period of mourning, the major affairs of the court and government that should be done have to be done, otherwise there will be chaos in the world?
This is not conducive to the Zhao family being in charge of the world.
For example, after the death of Song Yingzong, Song Shenzong had to deal with the government under the top of the ministers after a month of mourning.
During this period, in addition to Liuqiu Island, some other small countries also sent envoys to "mourn outside" after learning the news.
Of course, they basically took the sea ships of Liuqiu Island or the Great Song Dynasty into the court------ in the eyes of the owner of Zhang, they came to take advantage of the Great Song Dynasty.
The Great Song Dynasty was extremely rich in return gifts, such as Champong, Bagan, Mayi, Boni, Srivijaya, Ryukyu, Goryeo, Japan and other large and small countries, as well as some smaller tribes that could not be explained, and they could exchange a large number of porcelain, silk, gold and silver with a few local products!
This is not about the owner of Zhang, the people of Da Song are good at this!
Of course, he knew that it was precisely because he had made shipping in this era more convenient than I don't know how many times that it caused such a thing, making it easy for those people to run around.
However, what made the island owner Zhang unimagined was that the Goryeo envoy could first come to Liuqiu Island to ask to see him, the island owner.
And crying outside his door!
This can confuse Zhang Islander, I didn't want to see him, but why are you crying when you run to someone's door? Are you a curse?! Still in the wrong place?!!
Zhang Island Master directly asked people to call him in, and only let one person in.
The envoy was not polite, let him sit directly on the big sofa, and faced Zhang Island Master head-on.
The messenger said the first thing, asking the lord of Jang to return Jeju Island.
The island lord Zhang directly refused, saying: "You Goryeo people are an alliance of Tatar bandits, it would be good if we didn't go to your big city to punish you, and we want to get back Jeju Island?!" ”
He must refuse directly, it is his big livestock breeding base, even if he occupies the Shandong region, he can build several large breeding bases!
The messenger began to weep again, saying that their king had been thinking about the lost land day and night, and that he could not eat or drink------
You can't cry either!
Zhang Daozhu said in a firm tone: "I beg for nothing, there is not an inch of land that can be given away for nothing------ unless you exchange it with blood!" ”
The messenger peeked at the island master Zhang and saw that the island master was extremely firm, so he stopped crying and proposed a little more.
The island lord Zhang almost died of laughter, and said: "You have robbed a lot of women along the coast of Goryeo, what is the matter with me Liuqiu Island?!"
This is unreasonable!
I would never be a human trafficker!
Could it be that the Japanese did it, and then blame me for begging the guards!? ”
Originally, he had great confidence in his army and would never allow banditry or piracy!
The messenger didn't cry this time, but said that there were indeed Japanese bad guys involved------ but most of them were done by people from Shandong, and it was indeed not the Liuqiu Guards, but the women who were robbed were basically in Shandong, and some came to Liuqiu Island------
Zhang Island owner suddenly understood that he was not a human trafficker, but he was the biggest buyer of human traffickers------ how could he be a seller without a buyer?!
Zhang Daozhu's tone was much lower, and he said: "Human trafficking, this is a world problem, but also a historical problem, this requires the joint efforts of both sides to solve------ if they come to my Liuqiu Island and Shandong, their lives are far better than in the past, and many of them also take their families to live with them, and voluntarily become citizens of my Liuqiu Island, then I can't interfere------ are some of them voluntarily going abroad, and you are also considered to have been robbed?!" ”
