Chapter 76 Perfection and Filial Piety
Su Wei, the Duke of Pi Guo, and Pei Ju were ordered by Neishi to preside over the funeral of the palace, Zongzheng Temple was responsible for the funeral, and all the officials of the Great Sui in Beijing would go to mourn.
Yang Zhao finally didn't have time to intercede for Yang Hao, so that Yang Hao, as recorded in history, was demoted to a concubine like his half-brother Yang Zhan, deprived of his spiritual qualifications, and driven out of the palace.
Yang Jun's concubines were all dismissed, and they were destined to be widowed for the rest of their lives, because no one in the Great Sui dared to accept them.
Just like Emperor Yu Wenyun of Zhou Xuan, after his death, none of his five beautiful queens were repeated, except for Yang Lihua, all of them became nuns.
In ancient times, women remarried, called re-Jiao (jiao), when they married, they were not allowed to sit in a sedan chair, and if they had children, they would be looked down upon, and they were contemptuously called "drag oil bottles".
This is why Yang Lihua refused to remarry, although after Yang Jian established the country, he found many good family backgrounds for his eldest daughter, and no one dared to despise Yang Lihua, but she still refused.
Yang Ming waited until his mother and eldest brother returned to Beijing on May 21 to go to the Qin Palace's palace to mourn.
At the time of King Qin's new funeral, when there was such a great mourning, Concubine Xiao did not dare to go to the palace to mention Yang Ming's matter, and Yang Zhao did not dare to touch his brows at this time, after all, the will had been made, and Yang Hao was already a concubine.
In the Qin Palace, except for Su Wei, Pei Ju, the ministers of Zongzheng Temple, and Yang Jun's two concubines, who were ordered to mourn the abbot, those who entered the mourning did not need to wear mourning clothes.
Except, of course, for the clan.
There are also sayings in the clan, such as Yang Xiong, King of Guangping, Yang Hong, King of Hejian, Yang Shuang, King of Wei, etc., are for the elders, and there is no need to wear filial piety, but their sons, although they are the same generation as Yang Jun, the king of Qin, but first, the deceased is the greatest, and secondly, they are collateral clans, and their status is not high, so they have to wear filial piety.
Among the direct peers in Beijing, there are also Princess Yang Lihua of Leping, Princess Yang Tingzhen of Xiangguo, Princess Yang Wenjin of Guangping, Princess Yang Wenxuan of Lechang, and Princess Yang Awu of Lanling.
Don't talk about the remaining third generation of children, all of them are filial piety.
Yang Ming was wrapped in plain wrapping all over his body, following the large team for a few steps and kowtowing, anyway, as soon as the mourning official of Zongzheng Temple spoke, he just knelt.
The entire Qin Palace, which is wrapped in Sumin, will be nationalized after Yang Jun's funeral, and only Yang Jun's spiritual seat and the servants of the palace will be set up.
.......
The day's meeting lasted until noon.
Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo undoubtedly did a bit of an absolute job.
The property of the son was confiscated to the state, and the grandson could not inherit and was demoted to a concubine, and even Yang Jun's mausoleum was not given a monument.
And all this is because Yang Jun did too many ugly things before his death.
Gao Gong, Niu Hong and other bigwigs pleaded for Yang Jun one after another, but they were reprimanded by Yang Jian and his wife, saying that Yang Jun, the king of Qin, was the prince of Da Sui and took the lead in not obeying the law, although he is my own son, I can't pardon him.
There are a few guys in Yushitai who are not long-eyed, and in order to welcome Yang Jian and his wife, they actually poked out Yang Jun's smuggling and embezzlement of public funds with great fanfare at the court meeting.
Even so, there were still Liu Sheng, the general of Zuo Wuwei, and the emperor of the capital to plead, but their twists and turns were directly thrown away by Yang Jian.
The crown prince Yang Yong didn't have anything to say, just bowed his head and was silent.
In the following days, almost every day the court meeting talked about this, and the intercession of various local officials continued one after another, and even the intercession of Yang Guang, the king of Jin, and Yang Su, the prince of Yue, who were far away in the frontier, also arrived.
But Yang Jian and his wife were resolute and didn't even consider giving Yang Jun a nickname.
On this day, Yang Ming and the others received a letter from their father who was far away in the frontier, which roughly meant that they hoped that the three brothers could go to the court meeting in person to intercede for Yang Jun's son-in-law Yang Hao.
Now from the news from the palace, it can be seen that the voice of intercession for Yang Jun is almost gone, but there are few people who intercede for Yang Hao.
Yang Ming could probably guess that Daddy's intention was nothing more than to let Yang Jian and his wife know that the third brother valued blood and family affection, and not really interceded for Yang Hao.
Yang Guangcai didn't care if Yang Hao was a concubine, he hadn't seen his own nephew a few times.
The three brothers privately summed up,
Yang Zhao felt that he had to do his best if he succeeded, but the second Yang Yan felt that the second saint was angry, and he was afraid that he would be trained at this time.
As for Yang Ming, he has already made people ready for court clothes.
Following
The three county kings of the Jin Dynasty entered the palace and listened to the announcement outside the Daxing Palace.
Although they are all vassal kings, they have no real power in the imperial court, and except for the fixed dozen or so bigwigs, the rest can only participate after being summoned or met temporarily.
With the eunuch's call, the three of them tidied up their clothes and entered the Daxing Palace.
Dugu Jialuo has been attending the court meeting for the past few days, and suddenly saw his three grandsons, and his face softened slightly:
"What are you going to do?"
Yang Zhao took the lead and said: "Yang Haogui is the grandson of the King of Qin, and his mother does not know what he has done. ”
As he spoke, Yang Zhao held the pre-written recital in his hand high,
Dugu Jialuo frowned suddenly, what are the three of you here to make a fuss? What does this have to do with you?
"The son is noble to the father, and the son inherits the sins of the father, Qin Wangjun does not obey the law, the Supreme admonishes him several times, but he still does not repent, Yang Hao is the son-in-law, and he should inherit the sins of the father, according to the law of the Great Sui, he should be demoted to a concubine, and he has no right to inherit."
It was Yuan Min, the general of the Left Guard, who spoke.
Yang Zhao's face was expressionless when he heard this, but he was already furious in his heart, these bastards who saw the wind and steered the rudder, did you dare to say these words when Yang Jun was alive?
Now that people are dead, you have fallen into the well for other people's sons, and you are really a dog.
"Wait, which article of the Emperor's Law records that the son inherits the sins of the father?" Yang Ming directly confronted Yuan Min and said:
"General, don't talk nonsense, in my Great Sui, there is never a son who inherits his father's sin."
When Yang Ming had just crossed over, he had read the Kaihuang Law, and every article recorded on it had nothing to do with the old Yang family, it was a law and regulation made for officials and the people, and none of them involved the royal family.
The royal family's conviction has always been ambiguous, depending on the attitude of Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo.
Even if he was sentenced to death, he could be dragged back and changed to a frontier soldier, and you told me about the laws of the Great Sui? I want to laugh.
Yuan Min was not to be outdone, and said: "The king of Henan said that the son is valued by the father, and the general will say that the son inherits the father's sin, and the Kaihuang law does not record this article, but the "Spring and Autumn Period" has a saying, the mother is more expensive than the son, and the son is expensive than the mother, Yang Hao should bear his mother's sin, and the two saints will demote it to a concubine, which is not inappropriate. ”
"I didn't expect the general to still read Spring and Autumn?" Yang Ming sneered: "My Great Sui laws are all in accordance with the "Kaihuang Law", you talk about "Spring and Autumn", is there a suspicion of Zhang Guan Li Dai?" ”
Into the mother...... This kid is not very old, but his mouth is quite slippery, Yuan Min is a little speechless, he is not easy to refute.
Then, I saw Yang Ming kneeling down towards Yang Jian and his wife with a plop, and said:
"King Jun of Qin is benevolent and loving, reveres the way of Buddhism, although there are misconducts, but the way of heaven has been collected, and his sins can be forgiven, and the sage has said: The dead are great, how can they blame the deceased for their mistakes after their deaths."
"In addition, Qin Wang Jun is the second saint of the closest relatives, the son can be said to be noble with his parents, the king of Qin obeys the example of his parents, respects Buddhism, and recites and practices in front of the Buddhist hall every day, and is good to filial piety, and his grandson thinks that the name should be the most appropriate word for 'filial piety', as for his son-in-law Yang Hao, the parents who are all in the world, they should continue their filial piety, inherit their titles, guard the spirit and mourn, and hope that the two saints are sympathetic to the flesh and blood, and think twice."
In an instant, the entire Daxing Hall was silent.......
Gao Gong, Su Wei, Niu Hong and others glanced at each other, and they all saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
