Chapter 611 Chapter 610 Succession Preparations(2/2)
As a scholar like Hai Rui, he naturally wants to be a lie for the people and work hard for the country. Seeing that Emperor Jiajing was doing something wrong, he risked his life to advise him, and he had to scold him if he should.
But in the heart, the idea of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism has already penetrated into the bones. When I heard that the emperor died, I naturally couldn't help but feel sad and wailed.
Many people in later generations regarded the emperor's crying at this time as acting. In fact, this was not the case. Perhaps only those officials who were half-body buried in the soil would have this idea, and most officials would cry because of the emperor's death.
Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness have been repeatedly mentioned by teachers since they were studying, and have been more or less integrated into their bones and connected with their bloodlines.
Only those who know the destiny will understand that death is that no one can escape.
In the early morning, a heavy snow fell in the capital last night, turning the whole city into white.
The gate of Prince Yu's mansion was opened. Prince Yu was wearing a black winged crown and a green cloth robe that had been prepared, and took a black horn around his waist to the palace and got on the carriage that had been prepared.
Yin Shidan, Wei Guangde and others followed him and got on the carriage behind him.
Although the guards in front and behind the convoy are still fully dressed today, they are covered with a layer of plain clothes on the outside.
When he arrived outside Dong'anmen, the convoy stopped, King Yu got off his car and walked into the imperial city with his mourning utensils.
Walking from Dong'anmen to the Qianqing Palace, he released his crown and clothes, put on his hair, and kowtowed and cried in front of the imperial guards. Then he ordered the palace servants. The officials inside and outside the gate were guarding and mourning.
The Emperor Bintian of the Great Traveler told the Fengxian Hall, issued a decree to the world, and reported to the royal family kings. The guards of the capital city were guarded by the Ministry of Rites and ordered the Hanlin Court to discuss the ceremony of the funeral.
This is what King Yu had to do on his first day in the palace, and the Ministry of Rites was already preparing to hold a large-scale note on the emperor's funeral. After all, there is a convention. The so-called Ministry of Rites meets the Hanlin Academy to discuss the matter is actually a formality.
On the second day, the Ministry of Rites held a grand note on the emperor's funeral, and had detailed requirements for the noble ministers and wives in Beijing, the military, civilians and the people who need to do.
When Wei Guangde and his friends left the palace, they were still feeling that there were so many etiquettes. From tomorrow onwards, he would go to Sishan's door to cry like other ministers, just like other ministers, wearing a black hat and black horn, and then those who should go to work would continue to work.
Wei Guangde doesn't have to go to the school recording hall these days. This was what King Yu ordered to ask him to come to the palace every day.
Fortunately, he is only a fourth-rank official now. If he is promoted to the third-rank, his wife will also come to Sishan's door to cry for three days.
After that, Emperor Jiajing's mourning was carried out according to the ritual notes. The first thing Wei Guangde did to the palace every day was to look at today's arrangements, and then he chose the key points and talked with King Yu.
On that day, King Yu was in the mourning hall, and Wei Guangde came out to breathe. He saw Chen Yiqin wearing a cloth gauze hat, hanging belts, plain clothes, waist trousers, and hemp shoes quickly walking towards this side.
In fact, all officials have dressed up like this these days, even if they return to the yamen office after crying.
"The Shuntian Mansion is ready. Tomorrow, all civil and military officials, military and civilians, elders and others will be advised to enter with the paper."
After walking to Wei Guangde, Chen Yiqin whispered to him.
"Okay, then what are the main officials involved tomorrow?"
The emperor succeeded to the throne, and even if King Yu was not allowed to choose, he had to carry out three persuasions before he could agree. This was already a ritual.
Every time you persuade people to enter, it is not just about officials participating, but also about the government looking for representatives from the people, that is, young and middle-aged people and elderly people with innocent families participate.
"Tomorrow I will lead you, mainly a first-level official of the Minister and the Earl in Beijing and other nobles. The rest are those selected from Shuntian Mansion."
Chen Yiqin whispered, "The next day, the six ministers and nine ministers will participate, and the marquis in Beijing will also be present. The people will change a group of people. The Shuntian Prefecture has already arranged it."
The last time he persuaded him to advance was of course the cabinet, the Secretary of the Ministry, the Duke and Marquis of Beijing and other nobles and people. This time, King Yu had to give up half-spokenly and half-reply.
"Is there anything wrong today?"
Wei Guangde nodded and asked in a low voice.
"How is your highness ready for the crown garment? The Lord Gao asked me to ask."
Chen Yiqin replied.
Crown clothing is a dress name in ancient China.
It is said that it appeared in the Xia Dynasty and is mainly composed of crowns, black clothes, robe clothes, white silk belts, yellow knees, plain yarn mid-single, red robe, etc. It is the dress worn by the ancient emperors in the past.
The shoulders of the black clothes weave the sun, the moon, and the dragon patterns; the back weave the stars and the mountain patterns; the sleeves weave fire, the flower insects, and the Zong Yi patterns. The robe weave algae, rice, rosy, and rosy patterns each, which is the so-called "twelve heraldry" pattern.
In addition, there are mid-lane, knee-blocking, all woven algae, powder rice, shiny, and shiny patterns. In addition, there are yellow, white, red, black, blue, green six-colored big ribbons and small ribbons, jade hooks, jade pendants, gold hooks, jade rings and red socks, etc.
The crown garment is the most noble dress among all the emperor's clothes. It will only be worn during major ceremonies. The throne ceremony is undoubtedly such an occasion.
"According to Eunuch Huang, it will be corrected within two days."
The crown garment is made of snatching and snatching silk, and the method starts with dyeing silk. It is very complicated. Of course, it will not be made temporarily, and the time is not enough.
Fortunately, the inner court has several sets of crown clothes, which were never used by Emperor Jiajing, and are being modified according to King Yu's figure.
Wei Guangde naturally asked Huang Jin about these things, and he would not make any mistakes.
