506. Coffin falls
Tuxingsun had already taken the lead and dug the mausoleum with soil.
He has already stolen experience in tomb robbing, and he is naturally a good hand at building tombs.
The location of Ji Chang's tomb is located at the foot of Qishan Mountain, and there is a wall on the periphery.
Baizi, Wenwu and Yiganjia were all armed with shovels, baskets and other things, and after the burial was completed, they could afford to seal the soil.
And Ji Dan rode on a horse and watched all this.
It's weird, it's weird.
The guards he sent didn't come back, but instead came back with a birdman who called himself Yoshiko Moth, and an old man.
However, his brother still trusts this old man very much, calling him his father.
Doesn't this mean that you want to worship him as the prime minister?
If Jiang Ziya enters the main song, and his brother obeys him, then whose Xiqi is this?
Of course, the Son of Heaven is right, and it is not wrong to obey the orders of the immortals, but he can't be a puppet completely, right?
And my father's death was strange, too strange, too timely.
My father has been singing in the court for so many years, and it has not been in vain, and he has invented agricultural tools, improved planting methods, and promoted rice and wheat, which is very popular.
Coupled with his previous exploits, in Xiqi, no one, even an immortal, could stabilize his prestige.
It can be said that it is the same thing.
Could such a father not meet the needs of immortals?
Didn't the king just rely on the support of the courtiers and disrespect the gods?
The immortals support Xiqi, naturally they want a Xiqi who everyone respects the immortals and offers incense.
With such a big tree as his father at the top, the immortals are actually not easy to perform, after all, his father will not call Jiang Ziya his father, and he will not completely obey Jiang Ziya's words, based on his past achievements, and if he has done anything great in the future, it is easy to be attributed to his father.
And if it's Ji Fa, it's different, although Ji Fa has been in power for five years, his prestige is not obvious, especially a baby face, although he is not young, but it always makes people feel that his qualifications are still shallow.
In addition, worship Jiang Ziya as the father, so that all the affairs, big and small merits, are not accumulated on the head of this "father"?
Ji Dan's understanding of the immortal gods was not as deep as that of Ji Fa and Ji Chang, so he had a trace of insignificant doubt in his heart.
And now, because of Ji Chang's death, the suspicion has increased.
The death of his father is so weird, could it be that the immortals acted to protect the interests of the immortals?
It's not impossible, even Ji Chang, in the eyes of the immortals, is just a mortal, a chess piece, and if he dies, he will die.
Thinking of this, Ji Dan became more and more worried, if it was these immortals who killed his father, how could he rest assured that the immortals would preside over the slaughter?
It's one thing to be willing to be a chess piece, it's another thing to be willing to let the chess player crush the chess piece!
Ji Dan continued to protect the coffin as it approached the mausoleum.
He watched Ji Fa and Jiang Ziya whispering, and he didn't frown when he saw the two of them getting wet from the rain, but the more they talked, the hotter they became.
"Something isn't quite right...."
Ji Dan muttered to himself, he sensed that something was wrong, his father died so strangely, and the guards didn't come back, why did his brother believe Jiang Ziya so much?
He tried his best to make his face look as usual, this old fool has a hand, but he is afraid that his brother has completely fallen.
Although his father's death was a bit ridiculous, Ji Dan felt that if the immortal used a spell, it would be much more reasonable.
"Carry the coffin, help the spirit, and send off King Wen!"
In the end, when Ji Chang was buried, he still chose King Wen, the title of the king sealed by King Xu, which also means that Xiqi also determined that the country name will not change again.
As the ceremonial officer shouted, more than 100 armor soldiers gathered around the car where the coffin was parked.
There is a special set of etiquette system for carrying the coffin, except for the unscrupulous and unconscious monarch who carried the coffin of the Yellow Emperor with a large army, from the Son of Heaven to the common people, they all have to abide by this set of etiquette.
The ordinary coffin is eight bars, that is, eight people to carry, the advanced point is sixteen bars, carried by sixteen people, the nobles shall not exceed sixty-four bars when they die, and when the Son of Heaven dies, it usually takes 128 people to carry the coffin.
The coffin is reluctant to land, and the murderous coffin is unwilling, this is a sentence that has been passed down from generation to generation, and the coffin must be careful before entering the mausoleum and is completely placed, and must not fall to the ground.
According to the ancient saying, if the coffin falls to the ground during the funeral process, then the soul of the deceased will take root there, and unless it is buried on the spot, the soul of the deceased will linger and cannot rest in peace, and the final result is that it will not be able to be reborn.
Before he died, Zhuge Liang asked his subordinates to carry the coffin until the coffin fell to the ground, and then he could be buried.
When Jiaqing died violently, because it was too far away from the capital, he deliberately found nearly 8,000 people to take turns to carry the coffin, which shows the number of doorways to carry the coffin and its importance.
Ji Fa took the lead, hundreds of sons went together, plus a few civil and military ministers, there are many children like Ji Chang, but there is no need to worry about the lack of people close to him.
One hundred and twenty-eight people got started together and moved the coffin down little by little.
However, there was a loud bang.
It's over, and the coffin has landed.
On a rainy day, the ground is already muddy, and the coffin carried by one hundred and twenty-eight people is very large, as long as one person is not careful and his feet slip, and one of his hands is unstable, and one of them loses strength, all the others will not be able to use their strength.
When everyone came to their senses and understood what had happened, they were all frozen.
The coffin has landed, or is it a coffin of the level of princes and kings, this has not happened for many years?
Ji Dan was shocked in his heart, and when he was at a loss, he thought of something else.
The coffin of mercy falls to the ground for reluctance, and the coffin of the fierce coffin falls to the ground for unwillingness.
If the deceased is dying, it is a coffin, and the coffin falls to the ground nine times out of ten because the deceased is reluctant to relatives and friends, and this situation does not need to worry too much.
If the deceased died unnaturally, it is a murderous coffin, and the coffin will be very unlucky when it falls to the ground, indicating that he was resentful and unwilling when he died.
Ji Chang is obviously not dying.
I am unwilling.....
Ji Dan looked at Jiang Ziya without leaving a trace, the power was falling, was it really what his father thought?
It's true that my father wants to prosper Xiqi, and it's not false that I want to destroy the Great Shang, but does my father really want to hand over everything to the immortals, let the immortals handle it at will, and even take his life at any time?
At this time, Ji Dan felt a slight recognition of King Su in his heart, and finally knew why King Su did not respect the immortals.
The power of the immortal god is too strong, and it is too contemptuous of the lives of mortals, and the father's unwillingness, will it be unwilling to accept this?
If Jiang Ziya is really ruthless enough to kill his father, then he really has to think about it again.....
When Ji Fa saw this scene, his heart was half cold, and he had already believed Jiang Ziya's guess.
Unwilling, resentful, this is for sure!
What father was intercepted and killed by his own son, and he can still deal with himself calmly?
Not to mention the triangular relationship between Ji Fa, Ji Dan, and Jiang Ziya, the news of Ji Chang's death soon spread to Chaoge.
Because Zishou was still pretending to be sick, he got first-hand information.
It was Gao Jineng who brought the news, he didn't dare to return to Chaoge after he slipped away, but kept inquiring about Ji Chang's news, and now he finally has a reply, although the process is tortuous, but Ji Chang is dead after all, with the news to ask for guilt, plus the relationship with his sister, there should be no punishment.
When Zi received the news of Gao Jineng, he was both a pity and a surprise.
Unfortunately, the assassination failed and did not leave a name for itself.
Surprisingly, Gao Jineng is a talent!
Slipping away when something is not going well, giving up the task and paddling, isn't this exactly the person you need? I have been looking for a bastard for so long, but I didn't expect it to be right in front of me!
Can this still be blamed? It's up to you, when you get promoted and raised, and when you go west, you have to be at least a pioneer!
However, the focus is still on Ji Chang's death, and Zishou hopes to make up for the loss of the failed assassination.
Zishou asked Gao Jineng: "Is the news of Ji Chang's death true?"
Gao Jineng arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, I have confirmed again and again that Ji Chang is dead, and his son Ji Fa officially succeeded to the throne, calling himself the Son of Heaven, taking Zhou as the country name, and saying that Ji Chang is because of Your Majesty... Because His Majesty had no way and died of grief and indignation, Xiqi has now sent the general Nangong Shi to lead 100,000 mourning soldiers out of Qiaoshan and go to Bishui Pass. ”
