All Hail Cousin Brother

It is not a day or two that the treasury is empty.

The re-burial requires a lot of silver taels. The more you give to King You, the less they need to use, and they even need to pay for themselves, and other matters can be discussed.

When it comes to money, no one wants to harm their own interests.

Re-burial is also a labor-intensive revitalization of the public. It is reasonable to say that one should follow the rules of the prince.

but!

First of all, His Royal Highness King You is a hero and a good general, and the Zhou Dynasty has always had precedents for chasing heroes.

His Royal Highness King You is already a prince, and the title of the title should be the same as that of the Prince Regent, and the funeral should be arranged according to the title after the title.

Secondly, His Royal Highness King You suffered an unjust injustice, and on the basis of the ceremonial system of the Prince Regent, the court had to have an [extra] thick burial.

As a result, the funeral ritual system of His Royal Highness King You is afraid that it will catch up with the national mourning.

Doing it like this is labor-intensive, and there is no benefit at all. Who would be happy?

Furthermore, Yin Huaixi is amazing and talented.

A group of old ministers in the cabinet, who have been in high positions for a long time, also somewhat rely on the old and sell the old, more or less, they still look down on it. Yin Huaixi is a young and disabled teenager.

But no one would be foolish enough to say these thoughts in public.

There is no end to this quarrel.

Rao is because he is old, mentally weak, physically weak, and Xia Yansheng, whose temper has been polished, lifts his eyelids: "Yes, it's noisy, no, you don't use your brains except arguing?"

There was a sudden silence in the cabinet—

Xia Yansheng looked at Yu Zongshen who was sitting beside him: "What do you say?"

Yu Zong carefully played with the walnuts and gave a slight pause: "You should also take a look at the timing. You are also well aware of the situation in the northern border. The situation in the northern border is unstable at the moment, and the stability of the northern border is imminent. The follow-up of the King You case. It is even more urgent, if the situation in the northern border is misplaced, no one will be able to bear the consequences."

The cabinet ministers remained silent.

It's not that they don't know the truth, it's just that it involves their own interests, so it's inevitable that they have a lot to say.

Yu Zongshen continued: "The emperor proposed a long time ago that the tomb of King You should be moved into the imperial mausoleum, but you really think that this relocation is really just moving the tomb into the emperor's mausoleum and that's all it takes? Don't you need to prepare a sacrificial ceremony? Your Royal Highness died. It is disgraceful, if the tomb is disgraceful, the royal face will be dull, and the reputation and majesty of the emperor will be damaged."

Even the old cabinet ministers have nothing to say. No matter how hard they fight in the cabinet, no one dares to oppose it when it involves the interests of the emperor.

Yu Zongshen lowered his eyes: "Yin Huaixi didn't want His Highness King You to enter the imperial mausoleum, so he proposed a re-burial. The funeral ceremony is beautiful, and the imperial dignity and the emperor's reputation and majesty are fully preserved. It doesn't matter if you enter the imperial mausoleum or not."

Entering the imperial mausoleum is a great honor for the descendants of the royal family.

But Yin Huaixi only wanted His Royal Highness King You to be buried in the boundary of Youzhou.

Xia Yansheng made a final decision: "It's just what Yin Huaixi said."

"Re-burial and funerals are also in line with the ritual system. Let the Ministry of Rites prepare sacrificial texts, record the merits of King You, to sacrifice heaven and earth, tell the people, edict the descendants, encourage ministers, and assist Jiangshan society and Ji, this is a good thing, and it should be so."

"During the mourning period, the court was suspended for three days, to show that King You's ancestors were virtuous, that he had merit, and that his virtue was worthy of his position. The king, courtiers, and common people all grieved together."

"King You and Princess You are deeply in love with each other, and the two died together in adversity. It is also a good story. Princess You was buried in Youzhou, and King You returned to Youzhou for a grand burial.

"After the funeral system, I came to serve as the envoy of the mountain mausoleum, and led a group of ministers to prepare the funeral system in the capital. After that, the etiquette envoy, the ceremonial envoy, the steward envoy, the bridge-daughter dispatcher, etc., helped the spirit of the King You back to Youzhou and was in charge of the tomb. The land, the name of the mausoleum, the mourning book and other burial matters must be done properly."

The room was so quiet that you could hear needles falling—

Xia Yansheng continued: "The honor that should be given has also been doubled. There is no need to be unhappy with Yin Huaixi because of a dead person. In front of the emperor, it is also not good."

Yu Zongshen also expressed his stance: "The King You case has been around for half a year from June to now. It's already November. If we don't finish the matter as soon as possible, should we keep it for the New Year?"

Li Qiguang's case is still under trial, and it is still unknown how many people will be involved in the future.

The Song Xiuwen case later on will also require a lot of trouble.

At that time, the hall should be in chaos again.

The cabinet stepped up time, and after renegotiating and finalizing the decision, the next day's meeting was presented to the emperor.

After the emperor read it, he showed it to Yin Huaixi.

Yin Huaixi had no opinion, and thanked him in court.

This is how it was settled.

Three days later, the emperor personally issued an edict and announced to the world: "My noble son, I have been in the dynasty for more than 30 years. I have inherited the merits of my ancestors and the legacy of Emperor Gaozong.

"Cultivation of soldiers and armor, to suppress foreign nationalities and barbarians, and to have meritorious deeds;"

"To recruit talents, to manage the situation of Zhongxing in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and to benefit the people;"

"Establish a society and a grain of rice, strictly enforce the tyranny of the ancestral family, and have a meritorious ancestor;"

"Probation of punishment, strict management of officials, pardon the world, so that grievances can be made clear, injustices can be investigated, and there is merit in the management of officials;"

"Thinking back, encouraging farming, rectifying taxes, helping famines and famines, being considerate of people's sentiments, the merit is in the future;

"Do not accept the color, reign for more than 30 years, leave the harem vacant, reduce the silver of the middle palace, govern the world, the merit lies in virtue;"

"..."

Yang Yang sprinkled an edict. The front was after the emperor ascended the throne, benevolent, meritorious, and virtuous, and then he mentioned the case of King You.

"Of course, the country has a lot of use, and there are not enough soldiers. I have made the mistake of not investigating;"

"The ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government formed a party for personal gain, and protected each other at all levels, so that the king of Dingbei was persecuted by the traitorous party, and he was wronged.

"Dingbei King Yin Li practiced Wende and martial arts..."

The following long chapters fully describe the virtues and achievements of King Dingbei Yin Li, as well as several large-scale and total victory battles in his life.

"... Then, I returned to Yin Lixing's ancestral temple, and posthumously named Yin Lixing [One Word Side-by-Side King], with the title of King Li of Zhou, who cannot live with me, share the precious destiny of destiny, and share with me the society and grain of the country in death. "

"I hereby show the world, to comfort the heroic spirit of King Li of Zhou, to show the virtue of King Li of Zhou, to encourage ministers, to be loyal to the monarch to govern the country, and to tolerate the suffering of the people of Li, I respect this!"

The six-foot-long (about two meters) edict was read, and Zhang Bang arrived at Chang'anmen.

Relevant documents were also distributed to the prefectures and counties across the country through the imperial court, and the officials of the prefectures were ordered to read and publish the list, and announced to the people of the world.

The emperor issued a decree: "The former Weining Marquis, now the Ningyuan Marquis, together with the Changxing Marquis, deceived the superior and concealed the inferior, stole the war exploits of King Li of Zhou and his heir Yin Huaixi, concealed the military situation, and the criminals deceived the king."

Ning Yuanbo knelt on the ground, his body shaking like a sieve, but he didn't even dare to take a breath.
