Chapter 965

Since you can't use the army to help with the funeral, you can ask someone to do it. It's no problem. Duke Jingyun just wants someone to help, which doesn't mean that the army must do it.

But when it comes to hiring people, you must use money and be careful. Liu Yuanqiao only gave 100000 liang of silver. Moreover, judging from Xiao Ning's attitude, he won't provide additional help. It's even worse to want them to pay and contribute.

So Duke Jing Yun ordered his family to take the silver and buy related items immediately. He built a huge white sacrificial shed outside the Donghua gate, and then bought related items to prepare for the funeral.

If there were no Huaxia army to accompany them and without the help of these people, it is estimated that we would not be able to get so many things and buy many things, because many shops have not opened yet, and everyone does not understand the Huaxia army's attitude. It is easy to become a leading bird to open a shop and do business at this time.

Now every family has pasted red paper on the door, which reads: long live the Chinese Army!

Only those with these red papers are shunmin and will not be embarrassed by the Chinese army.

Accompanied by the soldiers of the Chinese army, Jingyun's people knocked down these stores engaged in funeral business one by one and purchased things from them.

Jingyun didn't handle these things. He didn't understand them until he got advice from the store. He didn't know that there were still many things to buy.

For example, Jing Yungong, a scholar, only knows how to hold funerals. He wants to invite monks and Taoist priests to chant scriptures, make a water and land ashram, and cross the dead. But he doesn't understand how to do it, how to invite it, and how much money to spend. This has to be instructed one by one by the store owners engaged in these businesses before he is on the right track.

As an emperor, it's natural to do a water and land ashram for a few days to surpass the dead. These things need to be done by people and cost money. The current situation is very delicate. No one dares to do these things on a large scale. If it's not accompanied by the soldiers of the Chinese army, he probably can't do it.

However, all this started after all. They set up a sacrificial shed outside Donghua gate, invited the emperor's soul and coffin here, and began to accept the worship of his former subjects.

At this time, Jingyun also noticed that the emperor's family were reunited here. There was another important person who didn't appear. This was empress Yi'an Zhang Yan.

Jingyun Gong heard some rumors that emperor Chongzhen personally went to Ciqing palace to ask queen Yi'an to commit suicide before committing suicide. So he wanted to bring the body and have a collective funeral together.

But when he came to the gate of Ciqing palace, Chen Runde, who was in charge of the palace, refused to enter.

Seeing Chen Runde here, Duke Jingyun was also surprised. The eunuch was very famous, not because he had worked in the palace, or because he was once a subordinate of Wei Zhongxian.

But because this eunuch, who has become a eunuch, dares to covet Zhang Yan's beauty and wants to make food with her.

This matter is known all over the world, which has caused two consequences, one is Zhang Yan's stunning beauty, the other is Chen Runde's lust.

It is said that at that time, many royal princes were still writing a letter to castrate Chen Runde again. They thought that only six unclean people would have such an idea. However, at this time, the emperor thought it was a family scandal that should not be publicized, so he quickly ended the matter. He just sent Chen Runde to grow vegetables in Xiaoling. It is estimated that this person will never turn over again in the future, Who knows, he actually appeared in Ciqing palace again and was in charge of the work here in the clothes of the chief eunuch.

Duke Jingyun said, "eunuch Chen, what are you doing here?"

Chen Runde said to him, "our family has an old acquaintance with the king and even his highness. Thanks to his Highness's appreciation, we have been appointed as the chief eunuch again to be responsible for the affairs of the harem. Now we are sorting out the harem, recruiting people and welcoming the LORD into the palace."

Since Liu Yuanqiao wants to use this person, Jingyun palace has nothing to say. No matter how long he has, he can't control how and who Liu Yuanqiao uses.

In fact, as far as Liu Yuanqiao's employment is concerned, Jing Yungong doesn't like it. He doesn't like those people under Liu Yuanqiao, so he really can't interfere.

Duke Jingyun explained his intention. Chen Runde said, "on that day, when we arrived at the palace city, Queen Yi'an committed suicide. Our family, mindful of our friendship, has ordered people to send queen Yi'an's body to the de mausoleum outside the city. The guards of the mausoleum will put it into the mausoleum and bury it with emperor Xizong."

As soon as Duke Jingyun heard this, he had to give up. Zhang Yan was the queen. Since she had died and put her spirit position in the imperial mausoleum and was buried with the former Emperor, it was also due. What the other party said was justified and took out the relevant handover certificate. He had to give up and turn away.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yan was under house arrest in Ciqing palace and was taught etiquette to welcome the new Lord.

Jingyungong naturally didn't expect that Liu Yuanqiao, who was very aboveboard and powerful in his eyes, had actually done something from it. They released these smoke just to hide people's eyes and ears.

Chen Runde was relieved to see that the other party had left. He knew that as long as he hid it from this person, it would be too much. No one could investigate the matter anymore. Even Liu Bu dared not ask about it, let alone others.

Even if some people have doubts, so what? Doubt is not evidence. If there is no evidence, don't talk nonsense. Now making rumors about the Chinese army is really a capital crime.

As for the people in Zhang Yan's palace, they were all controlled by him one by one. If anyone refused to cooperate, they were all executed by him one by one.

This thing is perfect. The purpose is to make the king not only enjoy the beauty of the queen of the previous dynasty, but also not get any curse.

Chen Runde saw Duke Jingyun jumping up and down in the palace. He was very happy. He seemed a little disapproval. It's over. What's the use of doing these things? To whom? It's unwise to try to get yourself into trouble.

Therefore, Chen Runde, who is in charge of the affairs of the palace, also ordered all his subordinates not to get involved in this matter. If anyone dares to interfere, he will be severely punished.

Chen Ren Runde is a person who urgently needs to draw a line with Daming. If someone like him points out that he is nostalgic, it is estimated that everything will be over, so he won't get involved in such thankless things.

You know, he hated emperor Chongzhen very much. He thought it would be better if his family were dead. He was rushed to Xiaoling by the emperor to grow vegetables. If Liu Yuanqiao didn't pull him, he would die of growing vegetables. So he watched all this with cold eyes, smiled secretly and dared to drive our family to grow vegetables, Your family deserves to be killed.

When Duke Jingyun returned to the sacrificial shed in front of the Donghua gate again, he had already started to build the shed. Because he had money, he hired a lot of people and had enough objects. They moved quickly, and soon built a huge spiritual shed. They also asked people to invite the emperor's coffin. There were spiritual cards and incense. At the same time, they invited Taoists and monks, They have all come. They have begun to beat gongs and drums, start fasting and chanting scriptures, and do Dharma to surpass the dead.

As for the memorial tablet of emperor Chongzhen, it's not easy to write. If it's still the world of the Ming Dynasty, it's necessary to give him a posthumous title and a temple name. But now, he's just an ordinary person. How to write it is difficult?

After thinking for several times, Duke Jingyun wrote down the spirit tablet, which is: Zhu Youjian, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. " As for posthumous titles and temple titles, there is no such thing.

Daming was finished. These things must be gone. He was embarrassed and asked Liu Yuanqiao for instructions.

In this way, I feel that it is somewhat simplified. For example, the spirit throne of empress Zhou is written about the throne of empress Zhou of the Ming Dynasty. Several other princes also write their names and titles, so let's stop.

The sacrificial shed outside Donghua gate is hung with white everywhere. The elegiac couplets here are written by Duke Jingyun himself. He also asked people to make a lot of wreaths. Almost everything is ready. Just wait for these people to come and pay tribute.

But he thought a little superfluous. Since they had ordered the palace gate to be opened, no one could help but come in, but no one came.

I'm kidding. Usually in the Ming Dynasty, no ordinary people can come here. They are all officials or dignitaries. When the war is in chaos and the Chinese army is in power, who will come here to worship the holy throne of the former Emperor.

Such a desolate scene made Duke Jingyun feel a little sad. He was thinking that the grand emperor had such a result.

Duke Jingyun, dressed in sackcloth and filial piety, kept vigil here. When he was idle, he folded some paper money and burned it. When he was idle, he wrote some elegiac couplets.

What he considered was that all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty came to worship, that is, he thought too much, but basically didn't.

He wondered whether the officers and soldiers of the city gate were preventing the people from coming in. He himself went to the city gate to have a look, but he saw that the city gate was indeed wide open and wrote a notice, that is to say, if there was a funeral for the late emperor at the Donghua gate, relevant people could go to worship and so on. No one stopped them, but no one came.

It's just that no one comes. Considering that people in the street come and go in a hurry, it's reasonable that no one has this leisure, but officials and dignitaries don't come, which is really chilling.

Duke Jing Yun sighed: the Ming Dynasty has raised scholars for more than 200 years, which is the last integrity of scholar bureaucrats.

Just as Duke Jingyun felt sorry for himself, the hooves in front of him made a loud noise. When he fixed his eyes, it turned out that Liu Bu led a large number of people to the scene.

It was said that Liu Bu and marshal Liu came. Xiao Ning immediately got rid of Jing Yungong and greeted him quickly.

For Xiao Ning, it's more important than anything to welcome Liu Bu and serve Liu Bu well. Moreover, it's not his job. If he has such a job, he will be scolded if he does it well, and if he doesn't, he will be scolded, so he doesn't want to touch it at all.
