Chapter 314: Sending to usher
According to the Tang funeral rites, a person cannot be judged dead immediately after death. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info should first prepare cotton wool and put it under his mouth and nose to see if there is any breath, but he can't bury the living in it. However, it was ordinary people, tossed like the emperor, and if they didn't die, they would die.
After the small gathering, it was a funeral similar to the ceremony, and this time all the emperor's relatives, whether male or female, old or young, had to come to participate. I had to add more clothes, one after another, for fear that the people inside would not die. I will suffocate him.
After putting on the clothes, the six kinds of jade, Gui, Zhang, Bi, Cong, Amber, and Gong, are tied to the clothes. Finally, the coffin of the Emperor Daxing was brought in and placed in the southwest corner, and many ceremonial objects were placed in it.
What was placed, Li Chen couldn't quite understand it, there was a board with seven holes on it, and it seemed to be the Big Dipper. In addition, there are some yellow silk embroidered with patterns such as the sun, moon, stars, dragons, turtles, etc., as well as a lot of clothes, which are placed in, and finally the emperor of Daxing has to be roughly put in, and the funeral is completed.
Li Chen wanted to complain when he saw it, it was clothes again, annoying or not, I was very annoying to look at, don't these clothes cost money? When I die, I will simply order the restoration of the golden clothes, and take down one set of clothes after another, and replace them with the golden clothes, maybe it will save a little bit.
Actually, Li Chen's complaint was a bit unreasonable. He didn't know, those were all clothes worn by the emperor, so it was not good to change them, and then give them to the new emperor to wear. simply put it down together for the funeral. It's not like he wants to make a new one to accompany the funeral.
When the azusa palace is covered with a layer of cloth, a sheet-like cloth. The burial is complete. Now it's easier. After a period of rest, they will be sent to the emperor's mausoleum. For the rest of the year, it is only necessary to take turns to keep the spirits.
Li Chen was free to ask Dihua what happened that day. However, after asking, Li Chen regretted it again, Dihua's mouth flattened, and she seemed to recall the situation that day, and cried again. Li Chen wants to scold people, but he wants to flatten himself even more, and ask what will happen later, I don't know if people are sad? .
However, probably because she was distracted by many busy things, and because she was well-trained in the palace, Dihua quickly stopped crying and said with a sob, "The slave and maid don't know, Wang Niangniang sent the slave and maid to look for something, but the slave and maid couldn't find it after looking for a long time, but when she came back, she found that the maid had hanged herself." ā
As he spoke, he looked like he was about to cry again, Li Chen had to wave her hand and send her down to rest, he really didn't know how to comfort the little girl who was going to cry, and his identity to comfort a slave would only make people think that he was interested in her, adding another trouble.
'Everyone. At this time, Fu Bo appeared, it seems that since he entered the palace, Fu Bo's energy has increased a lot, and he can often run around in various palaces, it seems that the power of Jinyi has slowly infiltrated into the palace.
But the cause of Wang Cairen's death was ascertained. Li Chen asked in a deep voice. When he heard the news that Wang Cairen had hanged himself, Li Chen's first instinct was murder. I wanted to personally examine the cause of death, but self-suicide and strangulation are very different.
It's a pity, in order not to alarm the **** Zhen, how can a stupid prince of the Tang Dynasty suddenly become a detective of the Tang Dynasty, and he has to give up. However, he still asked Fu Bo to find a way to secretly go to the autopsy.
The biggest difference between suicide and strangulation is the strangulation mark on the neck, if it is hanged, it will go up diagonally, and the back of the neck will not leave strangulation marks. If strangled to death, the mark will be flat and will appear as a cross at the back of the neck.
This is the autopsy report that the owner said. Fu Bo took out a slip and counted it as a test corpse report, in the brocade clothes, there are all kinds of talents. You don't need Li Chen to dial, you know what to check.
Li Chen flipped it a few times, and said that Wang Cairen walked very calmly, without any pain, and there was no general situation where after hanging himself, his eyes would be wide open, his tongue would be spit out, and he would be incontinent. Li Chen frowned and looked at it, without these circumstances, although it may also be self-hanging, not every hanged person will have these phenomena, but he is more likely to kill.
It's just that since Fu Bo didn't even sentence him to kill, he still read the report first. Sure enough, in the end, it was judged that the deceased had hanged himself.
There are two key points, the neck is strangled, only two are obliquely up, and there is no on the back of the neck. Secondly, the autopsy showed no signs of struggle, so it can be inferred that he died by hanging.
Seeing such a result, Li Chen sighed, although she regretted it, but this was her own choice, if it was murderous, he couldn't say that he would find out.
Then, after guarding the spirit for a few days, it is time to go out of the spirit, and this day is called the day of the fading. On the eve of the induction day, everyone is required to fast for three days, and then officials are to be dispatched to bury the emperor and make sacrifices to heaven and earth, temples, and shrines.
The day before the launch, officials were also dispatched to inspect the route. On the way, all the places that passed, gates, bridges, had to send officials to make sacrifices, and inform the Daxing Emperor that he would go out for a funeral the next day. Li Chen doesn't have to take care of these, naturally someone will do it.
What he was going to do was at night. On the eve of the introduction day, there was a farewell ceremony, Li Chen took the lead, followed by all the relatives of the previous emperor, of course, his relatives, and many relatives of the Li family, who said their final goodbye to Emperor Daxing.
The next day, the bleak sky was bright, which seemed to symbolize God's reluctance to give up on his son's death, Li Chen, under the guidance of **** Zhen, performed a series of rituals, incense and sacrifices, cried and worshipped. It made Li Chen dizzy again.
It's too troublesome, I thought it would be easy to be tossed today. But today's amount is many times more than the previous day.
If you want to describe it, it is that today is the end of the exam, and you can take a vacation immediately. The result is not, on the last day of the final exam, I have to take out all the exams from the previous days and "bake" them again.
The whole funeral ceremony is very cumbersome. Anyway, every time you pass through a door, there is one thing. After worshipping in the temple, he invited the spirit driver, and when he went outside and passed the door, he had to cry and worship again. More people joined in to participate in the ceremony.
Finally, Li Chen's suffering ended here. Next, it was his fat son who took over. During this period, his family was also brought in, although he had not yet ascended the throne, but he was a prince. The family members are also relatives of Emperor Daxing, so they should participate.
Seeing the kid in decaying clothes, Li Chen almost laughed. With a bitter melon on his face, he reluctantly followed along, occasionally turning back, looking at his father sadly, as if accusing him of not taking responsibility and handing over the drudgery to his son.
Li Chen couldn't help laughing, fortunately, as soon as he came back, he began to practice this little fat man, let him move more, and his mental and physical strength improved a lot, otherwise maybe the fat son couldn't support it, so he would have to go up.
Presided over by the prince, after the ancestral ceremony was performed in the Taimiao, the spirit drove and then marched, and went out of the palace from the Chengtian Gate. This Chengtianmen is of great significance in Datang and Chang'an. In addition to the opening of major ceremonies, there are also street drums on it, and the drumming every night indicates that there is a curfew on the street.
Today, the Gate of Chengtian is open again. The prince and the prince, holding the coffin, rushed out, and walked all the way to Yanxi Gate. It was not until Yanxi Gate that he got on the horse, went out from Tonghua Gate, and escorted all the way to the mountain.
Li Chen didn't leave, he climbed the city wall, watched Zigong go out of Yanxi Gate, and saw it until he couldn't see it anymore. His eyes seemed to penetrate the city gate and saw the Tonghua Gate.
Tonghua Gate is not only the center of gravity of defense, but also the gate of farewell in the Tang Dynasty, the Longshou Canal flows into Chang'an from here, solving the problem of water diversion for nearly half of the Chang'an people in the city. The inside of the city gate is lined with car shops. His Laozi Xianzong was sent away here, and Daizong and Wenzong also went out from here, and now there is an Emperor Wuzong.
'Uncle Fu, you say, will I be sent out from here in the future?' 'Your Majesty.' Fu Bo's voice was low, but he said firmly, "Your Majesty is now officially at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, as long as you pay attention to your body, you will definitely be able to live a long life." ā
'Ha, it's okay, I'm just a little sad. Let's go, there are no beauties or subjects down there, there's nothing to look at. Li Chen is just a little sad, life is impermanent, and Emperor Daxing is many years younger than him.
"What's wrong with me?", Li Chen laughed self-deprecatingly, probably because there were too many dramas today, and I watched too much, those people were cumbersome and etiquette, making people look like puppets, like a bunch of actors acting.
It's because I watched a lot that I even went down to play a role called the emperor, and I couldn't play for a while. Only then will there be this feeling that life is like a play, and drama is like life.
Emperor Daxing's funeral is over, and the next big thing is coming. In the sixth year of Huichang, on April 22, a month after the death of Emperor Wuzong, Li Chen officially held an enthronement ceremony in the Taiji Palace.
The enthronement ceremony is quite cumbersome, so I won't say much here, after a series of ceremonies, the edict was announced in the Taiji Palace, and Li Chen didn't understand what he said. However, the next ritual, he understood.
'Hooray, hooray, hooray. When looking at the Chinese martial arts officials in the hall and bowing his head to salute himself, Li Chen suddenly felt dizzy.
I am the emperor, I am the emperor, I am the master of this empire, the greatest and most glorious country in the world. A feeling of shaking like a dream swept over him, making him feel like he was in a dream, am I dreaming doubts? Until a male duck throat wakes him up.
'Zhong Aiqing is flat. Li Chen, who came back to his senses, put on a harmless smile again, first flattened the hundred officials, and then turned his head to talk to **** Zhen.
'Father-in-law Ma, I will rely on you to mention more in the future. **** Zhen modestly returned the salute, "I will definitely assist everyone." With a gentle smile, the same as Li Chen.
It's early, it's early, Li Chen, it's all just the beginning... If you don't get rid of the person in front of you, and all the forces behind him, you are just a puppet. Li Chen reminded himself. (To be continued.) )
