Chapter 162: Who has not died since ancient times
Dugu Xinci saw the young Yin Yanzhi of Jingzhao Mansion pacing anxiously, so he leaned in and asked
"Yan Shaoyin, why are you so anxious?"
"You came just in time, someone sent someone to buy some food and medicine, but it seems to be blocked by the crowd, and there is no news now, you are afraid that someone will not be able to support this situation?" Yan Shizhi was very anxious, it was still early in the morning, the temperature was quite cold, and he was sweating profusely.
"Wannian County still has some surplus food outside, you quickly sent someone to fetch some, why don't you have a stool? What about cool pills and the like? ”
"Wasn't it placed yesterday by so-and-so, and so-and-so was not overlooked at all of this? Wait for a certain person to find out who placed him yesterday and picked his skin? Yan Shizhi gritted his teeth.
"It's useless to talk about these now, it's not Lin De Hall over there, go get some stools and chairs, right?" Dugu Xinci suggested, Yan Shizhi heard that Daxi ran over there, suddenly stopped, and looked at Dugu Xinci suspiciously.
"What's wrong?" Dugu is kind and confused.
"Lin De Palace, that's a royal thing? Isn't it a violation to take a certain one? Yan Shizhi smiled bitterly.
"That's right, think about it, hey, it's not the Hanlin Academy on the side, it's not Yang Qiu's edict, Yang Wulang" Dugu Xinci called.
Yang Qiu came over: "Why are you here?" Calling something? ”
"There are women, children and the elderly here, and there is a school in the Hanlin Academy, but there are stools and chairs? Need to bring some supplies for the women and children to sit and wait."
Yang Qiu looked at the crowd, there were indeed many people crumbling, and after a few days of rain on the ground, although the rain stopped today, the clouds did not disperse, and the ground was also muddy.
"Okay, wait, how much does it take to call someone to move the stool and chair?" Yang Qiu doesn't talk nonsense.
"The more naturally, the better, Yan Shaoyin, send a few people to move the stools and chairs with him, by the way, can there be food in the Hanlin Academy?"
"You haven't even prepared food?" Yang Qiu wondered, and looked at Dugu Xinci suspiciously.
Yan Shizhi blushed very much, and hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you Yang Zhizhao, this is the negligence of Jingzhao Mansion"
Yang Qiu stopped talking and rushed into the Hanlin Academy to find someone.
After a while, dozens of people helped to carry stools and chairs, all of them in scarf uniforms, which should be the worshippers of the Hanlin Academy.
Since the Tang Dynasty, the Hanlin Academy was divided into two kinds, one is the Hanlin Bachelor, who works in the Hanlin Academy, and the other is the Hanlin Academy, which serves in the Hanlin Academy. The Hanlin scholars were responsible for drafting the edicts, and the Hanlin enshriners had little real power. In all dynasties and generations, the Hanlin scholars were always the highest status scholars in the society, concentrating the elite of the intellectuals at that time, and the social status was superior. It is a great honor to be selected as the "Dian Hanlin" to be selected as the "Hanlin Academy".
The drafting of the edict was the full-time work of the Zhongshu Sheren, but the sage felt that the system of drafting the edict of the Zhongshusheren was difficult to keep confidential and meet the urgent needs, so he once selected a cronie official who was good at literature to serve as the Hanlin Yuan to wait for the edict, in order to prepare for the drafting of the urgent edict (and write the pseudo-poem), this is the origin of Wen Yu, Wang Weizuyong, Yang Qiu, Du Xuan, Wei Bin and the six people who were enshrined as the Hanlin edict.
But the Hanlin Academy is more by a variety of artistic people to serve, in addition to the literary scholars, medical divination, square tricks, calligraphy and painting, and even monks and Taoists can be selected, in order to wait for the edict in the hospital, the history is called "Hanlin at the beginning, miscellaneous and coexist" They are called Hanlin worship, so there is no real power, but they are all close ministers of the Son of Heaven, and they can be summoned by the saint at any time.
These Hanlin worshippers were not very willing to do these rough work of moving stools and chairs, but when they saw the situation of the memorial crowd, most of them did not say much, and even a few people ran back to continue moving stools and chairs.
But there are thousands of people, and there are a few people who are very disdainful, and one is still muttering, "There is still a painting that has not been painted, and doing these rough things can wear out the skin of a certain hand."
"Look at the families of those dead ghosts, let's go, let's go back and have a drink" Another person on the side laughed and comforted.
Originally, Dugu Xinci was too lazy to care when he heard the complaints, and he didn't look at Yan Shizhi and pretended not to hear it, but the words of the person behind him made him a little unbearable, picked up a round stool, and smashed his head and head.
"Oops," the man immediately fell.
"What are you doing? Who are you? Dare to go wild in the big inside? Someone? Going to kill? The man who was complaining next to him began to call.
"What did you just call those people?" Dugu ignored it, and stepped on the heads of the fallen people in the past, and the big bear and the dog also stopped the Hanlin worshippers who surrounded them.
"Didn't you say anything?" The one who fell to the ground denied it.
"Forget it, Dugu Ming Mansion, it's important to get down to business" Yan Shizhi also came to consol.
"Business? Have you heard what this man is calling? Dugu Xinci asked a few people on the side, there are Hanlin offerings and heroic martyrs.
"He called someone to be the family of the dead ghost," an old man said with a fierce look in his eyes and hatred.
"That's what he said?" Yang Qiu also squeezed over and asked, still holding some food in his hand, steamed buns, oil cakes, and so on.
The Hanlin worshippers shook their heads and nodded.
"Hurry up and kowtow to the families of those heroic martyrs to admit your mistakes, otherwise you will also become a dead ghost" Dugu Xinci let go of his feet, but stared at the Hanlin worship who was curled up on the ground and said coldly.
"If you beat Hanlin to worship, you will definitely come to the saint to tell you about your murderous deeds," a Hanlin offering was called on the side.
"If you don't go over and kowtow, the Qingming Festival next year will also be your death day" Dugu Xinci clapped his hands and continued to intimidate without care.
"One" Dugu Xinci counted one, and when he saw that this person continued to pretend to be dead, he didn't care, and picked up the round stool from the ground.
The man quickly got up, but shouted, "A murderer has beaten someone?" ”
Dugu Xinci picked up the round stool and hit it again, and the man immediately fell down again.
"You know what? A certain is saving you" Dugu Xinci cracked his white teeth, but said with a smile, the bench in his hand did not stop, and after two strokes, the man's head immediately broke and bled out.
"Second, are you going to go or not?" Dugu Xinci called out the two, the bench in his hand still didn't stop, and the son was already dying.
"Zhang Xuan, why don't you go over and kowtow and apologize?" Yang Qiu hurriedly came over, stopped Dugu Xinci, and scolded the man.
"Zhang Xuan is not? Zhang enshrined? You're about to shout three? Don't you make it difficult for you? Is it a bit troublesome to kill someone in Ouchi? Dugu Xinci smiled and said, "But it's not difficult to get you out of the palace."
"Don't hurry over, this is the heir of the prince of Liaoyang County, the Marquis of Far East, the county commander of Wannian County, the Demon Wolf Tianxing Dugu Xinci" Yang Qiu immediately said word by word.
Zhang Xuan, who was curled up on the ground and pretending to be dead, immediately jumped up when she heard this, ran to the old man, turned over and knelt down, kowtowed and shouted, "Something is wrong, please punish it"
"So-and-so's name is so valid? Did you know what to do? Is it enough to have an entry number? Dugu muttered.
"Did you know that you were famous?" Yang Qiu sneered, "Look at those worshippers, I'm afraid they hate you to the bone, don't underestimate them"
"You're reminding me that you can't let this man live?"
"Don't mention anything dead or alive, hurry in, the memorial is about to begin, you are accompanied by the sacrifice and need to be present, here is handed over to so, today's matter will be reported to Li Fu Yin, and a certain will also go to Li Fu Yin to face the saint" Yan Shizhi hurriedly persuaded.
"Okay, so-and-so still needs to kowtow" Dugu Xinci sighed, glanced at Zhang Xuan who was still kowtowing on the ground, and said, "If you are not satisfied, let him continue to kowtow, if he does not kowtow, he guarantees that Zhang Xianfeng will not survive tonight."
Then Dugu Xinci bowed his hands to these martyrs and left straight away, going straight to the Loyal Martyrs' Shrine.
"How can this man be so fierce? In the palace, he said that he would fight, and it seemed that he really had the intention of killing? "It is estimated that the martyrs from a distant place on the side are very puzzled.
"Haven't you heard? This is the heir of the king of Liaoyang County, the Marquis of Far East, the county order of Wannian County, the demon wolf Tianxing Dugu Xinci" said a person on the side, and the spirit card in his hand is written on the former right Weiwei Duwei Dou Zhiying's soul will live forever, "This martyr's shrine is set up by the saint, and it is pinched in the Hanyuan Hall on the winter solstice, and it invites 300,000 heroic spirits to immediately scare and kill the new branch jinshi, this is a certain kind of benefactor."
"Oh, what a benefactor? Demon Wolf Skystar? Grand Sorcerer? Knowing that he was a Great Magician of the Far Eastern Devil Wolf, this person also suddenly realized: "He also has relatives or comrades who died in battle?" ”
"What about the 300,000 comrades he has in the Martyrs' Shrine?" The family members of Dou Zhi, the former commander of the Right Guard, smiled and said, "The 300,000 heroic souls who died in the Far East are all his comrades"
Not to mention how the people here are talking about it, Dugu Xinci finally arrived in front of the Martyrs' Shrine. The Martyrs' Shrine was built on the opposite side of the hill where the Lin De Hall and the Hanlin Temple were located.
The Martyrs' Shrine is also in the middle of the mountain, there is a slope, over a valley is the hill where the Lin De Hall and the Hanlin Courtyard are located, standing in front of the Martyrs' Shrine, you can overlook the high Hanyuan Palace, Xuanzheng Palace, Zichen Palace, all the halls.
The Martyrs' Shrine is not due south and north or due east and west, but according to the Longshou Mountain mountain trend back to the northwest, facing the southeast, it is really the direction of Longshou Mountain and Nanshan, the sky is inclined to the northwest, and the earth is not satisfied with the southeast.
The Martyrs' Shrine is a group of buildings, there are the main hall, the side hall, the corridor, the wing, the square, in general, it is surrounded by green mountains and green waters, solemn and quiet.
The main hall of the Martyrs' Shrine is nine into seven, and the side halls on both sides are also five into seven rooms, all around are corridor pillars but there are no window lattices, and there are rows of stone tablets inside, which are engraved with the list of fallen soldiers provided by the Ministry of War, only the place of origin and name, but it is according to the chronology and the place of death in battle.
The rows of densely packed bluestone steles are very magnificent, and the top of the cloud-shaped stele is now also hung with white silk, which looks solemn and solemn.
Of course, most of the tablets are still blank now, and the people in the military department are still arguing whether to only engrave the year of the dragon, or to engrave all the soldiers who have died since the founding of the Yan and Tang dynasties, and some people also advocate that the names of all the heroes who have died in battles with foreign races since the beginning of mankind should be engraved.
And is it not that the soldiers who died on the battlefield should be engraved?
Are the many soldiers who died of illness also martyrs?
Anyway, it's noisy, but all the people in the Yantang Shenlong years have been named.
From the Pingwu Tang Rebellion in the early years of Shenlong, the Taiping Princess Rebellion and other battles, to the three-year Pinggoryeo Battle of Shenlong, as well as the list of casualties reported by the border passes over the years, the two battles of the Far East to conquer Mohe are naturally the majority.
Someone came to ask Dugu Xinci, should the list of the wild wolf regiment's war dead be engraved?
Dugu Xinci sneered, although the four major mercenary groups do not need military salaries, they are also the sequence of the military department's military records, and you will look at it?
Wang Hui, the secretary of the Ministry of War, pondered it, and still asked people to engrave the list of the four major mercenary groups, so the Far East Wild Wolf Mercenary Group occupied ten tablets, and the former head of the regiment, Dugu Su, was densely packed with more than 20,000 names.
A stele is two feet high and wide, the front and back sides can be engraved with a thousand names, in addition to the main hall side hall can place the famous monument, there is also a hundred steps of wide square behind the hall, the square is the hillside behind the hillside, the hillside can also be placed on the famous monument, of course, it still needs to be placed.
There are nearly 1,000 inscriptions in the partial hall of the whole main hall, the first batch of inscriptions is the list of the fallen heroes since the dragon, about three or four hundred pieces have been engraved, that is, nearly 800,000 heroes are on the tablet, of which the two Far Eastern Wars have contributed more than 300,000 names.
When the saint learned that in the past 11 years since Shenlong, there were 800,000 Yan and Tang soldiers who had been loyal to the country, he also burst into tears.
All who should come are here, the civil and military officials of the Yan and Tang dynasties, as well as those who rushed back to Beijing from the state capitals, Zhu purple robes, green and green surrenders, and the high monks and great virtues in purple and gold robes, lined with Haiqing and immortal long Taoists in silk clothes, stood in the wide square in front of the shrine for more than 200 steps.
Dugu Xinci asked the imperial history of the presiding ceremony to find his place, and the side of Yin Li Yuanhong, the governor of Jingzhao Mansion in the priesthood.
The foremost is the monk Taoist class, each on both sides, in the middle is the red carpet, which extends to the main hall of the Martyrs' Shrine, but there is a shrine on the middle step in front of the main hall.
The two pillars in the middle are engraved with two lines of words: Who has not died in life since ancient times, leaving Dan to take care of the sweat, and then there are Yan and Tang heroes immortal, and the imperial war spirit will last forever; The martyrs have been immortalized through the ages, and their names have been passed down for thousands of years; Thousands of loyal martyrs, a hundred years of legacy.
The ocean of natural flags around the Martyrs' Shrine, Dugu Xinci was bored yesterday to check it, the whole festival system of 100,000 large and small flags, not counting the monks and the two doors of their own, at this moment the monks and the two doors of the monks and the great virtues, the immortals and the Taoist people are on both sides of the Martyrs' Shrine, there are hundreds of each, the monks hold the golden drum, chime, cymbal drum, gong, cymbal, bell, wooden fish, cloud board, fish board, etc., and the Taoist chiefs are holding the dynasty Jane, Ruyi, the seal, the sword, the token, the town altar wood, the order flag, the ruler, the three clear bells, the chime, the cymbals, the lightning strike wood, etc.
The whole scene was solemn and solemn, majestic and mournful.
The saint stood at the forefront, with a crown.
The main priest is Song Jing, the prime minister's servant, and he is slightly behind the saint on the left side.
More than 100 attendants then stood, the last was the viewing seat, and the remaining 100 officials stood quietly.
At the moment of the hour, the auspicious time has arrived, and the drum is strict at the beginning, the drum is strict, and the drum is strict.
The festival begins with the firing of cannons, bells, and music, and the chief priest and the priest are in place.
Under the leadership of the saint, in front of the martyrs' shrine in the northwest corner of the Daming Palace, he sincerely offered incense and knelt three times and bowed nine times.
There are also music classes in the two corridors, and everyone gets up after kneeling and bowing, and begins to play the song of saltiness.
At this time, the food should be eaten, and the thirty-six Jinwu guards carried three animals, accompanied by thirty-six guards, and put a whole pig, a whole sheep, and a half-human high big fish and three jars of sweet wine on the table in front of the shrine.
This is also the result of several arguments, the Ministry of Rites and the old masters of Taichang Temple quoted the scriptures and enshrined the rites of the Taigao, that is, the pig's head, the sheep's head, the cow's head, "The Book of Rites - Sacrifice System": "The three animals, the eight are real, and the beautiful things are prepared." "The Book of Rites - Zaifu": "All guests who make a Hajj contract shall be punished with the law of prison etiquette. King Zheng of the Han Dynasty noted: "Cattle, sheep and pigs are a prison." "Shujing-Weizi Biography" "cattle, sheep and pigs are said to be three animals".
But when the preparations are handed over to Wannian County, the question comes, where does the bull head come from? Is it a big sin to kill a cow? Don't look at Dugu Xinci's poems about cooking sheep and slaughtering cattle for fun, but if you really want to eat a cow, you have to be in a dream, if you really want to prevaricate with a sick cow falling to death, but Dugu Xinci also wants a face, you need to lie about eating beef? What a pleasure it is to eat.
Oh, come from afar, anyway, Du Juan didn't dare to make the decision to report to where was the Dugu Xinci Ming Mansion that was still in Qingchuan at the time, Dugu Xinci replied with eight words, not a god or an ancestor, why use it too fast?
The panicked beachhead said panic, and the zero ding sighed in the ocean. All men are mortal? Keep Dan in mind.
