Chapter 895 The Fourth Master Is Like Having Telepathy
Because the emperor is the supreme ruler and master of the country, the soldiers and civilians of the whole country must mourn for the emperor.
At the same time, the Ministry of Rites also carefully managed Kangxi's funeral.
All the civil and military alternate officials, Jinshi, tributes, official codes, monks and Taoists in Beijing should be called to Shuntian Mansion to gather. In the first three days, they must pay tribute in the morning and evening.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs has to make the mourning clothes and distribute them to the princes, princes, princesses, officials, below Fujin, daughters-in-law, leaders, third-class guards, and wives above.
Moreover, these people also have to be present.
Kangxi's coffin will be stored in Qianqing Palace for 27 days before being transferred to the Funeral Palace.
During this period, ministers of civil and military affairs below the prince, members of the idle clan Jueluo, princess, Fujin below, township monarchs, and clan children and above are all in uniform.
All officials under the Ministry of Internal Affairs are in one suit.
It was not until Kangxi went to the funeral twenty-seven days later that the clothes could be removed.
In addition, men have to pick off their crowns and braids, and women have to make up and cut their hair, even if it is the fourth master.
And within a hundred days of Kangxi's death, it was a national mourning. People in the whole Qing Dynasty were not allowed to marry and have fun during this hundred days.
Within twenty-seven months of the near branch clan, and within one year of the far branch clan and the princes and ministers in Beijing, they are not allowed to marry or have fun banquets.
More seriously, the harem concubines and the emperor's heirs have to be buried with them.
However, those who are generally elected have no worries and no relatives after death.
But fortunately, when Kangxi was alive, he felt that the system of burial of living people was too cruel, so he abolished this item.
Now that Kangxi has passed away, there is no living person buried.
Then, high-ranking nobles such as Wang, Baylor, Beizi, Gong, Princess, and Fujin need to fast at home.
The ministers and officials of various government ministries and institutes had to go to the dormitory of the yamen to live together and fast, and they were not allowed to go home.
As for idle officials, they gathered at the Meridian Gate to fast and stay.
Ruoyin, as Fujin, the future queen, can naturally fast at home.
But Kangxi's big "big burial" funeral has not yet passed. As Prince Fujin, she wants to pay homage to Kangxi's remains in the palace.
So, at noon that day, under the leadership of the eunuchs and guards in the palace, she led all the female relatives, elder brother, and Gege to the Forbidden City in the backyard.
Looking at the palaces, the golden glazed tile roofs with double eaves, and the red walls one after another, Ruoyin was suddenly dazed.
At this moment, no matter how magnificent and majestic the palace is.
Ruoyin would only feel depressed.
It was also like the feeling when she entered the palace for the first time.
Even, the feeling of depression was even worse than the first time.
She couldn't say where this feeling came from.
She should be happy that fourth master became the successor emperor.
I am happy that the Forbidden City will be a safe place for her and her children in the future.
I am glad that I no longer have to worry about Master Jiu and the others cruelly treating her children.
She is happy that as long as she is stable, she can become a queen, rule the sixth palace, and die in her bed.
But after so many joys in a row, why can't she be happy?
"Fu Jin, there are too many people in the Forbidden City recently, so I just let you change into your uniforms here before going to Qianqing Palace." A young eunuch said.
Now, the fourth master is said to be the successor emperor.
But now during the national mourning period, Ruoyin and the people in the backyard had not yet received the imperial decree.
Therefore, when others saw her, they still called Sifujin.
Ruoyin glanced at the room in front of him, and there was a big room inside.
There are several separate rooms separated by various fabrics in the middle.
In the room, off-white ready-to-wear clothes are placed everywhere, presumably it is a place to change clothes.
Seeing this, Ruoyin said nonchalantly: "It's okay, it's good if I can change into the ready-made clothes. Anyway, the ready-made clothes are also put on the outside."
"Come on, please forgive me." The little eunuch said and withdrew.
This one will be very lucky in the future!
After the eunuch went out, Ruoyin ordered: "Li Fukang, take all the elder brothers to the outer compartment and change into ready-to-wear. The rest of you, follow me to the inner compartment, and each find a separate room." , Hurry up and put on your ready-to-wear."
"Also, Rushuang and Ruxia go outside and watch out, don't let others in."
"yes."
The ready-to-wear is very loose, presumably, it is made according to the one-size-fits-all.
However, the clothes of the Qing Dynasty were basically like this.
After about a stick of incense, everyone changed into their uniforms.
Ruoyin called the people in the backyard and the children to him.
After carefully checking that there was no problem with their appearance, he said: "Okay, since we have all changed into ready-made clothes, follow me to the Qianqing Palace. But you have to remember, now, our decency is the face of the Lord. When you get there, be careful and behave yourself.”
No matter what grievances and grievances there are in the house, they have to be united here.
Besides, their current identities are the objects of everyone's attention, and there is no room for error.
Otherwise, she wouldn't be careful about everything.
"Yes." At this moment, even Li Shi, who has always been the most disobedient, did his duty.
Seeing that everyone should be happy, Ruoyin nodded in satisfaction, and led them to Qianqing Palace.
When we got there, we cleaned up the inside and outside of the palace, which was already overcrowded.
Because the "big burial" funeral is about to be held.
Moreover, it wasn't just Ruoyin and others, but all the princes and down, and the top officials and above. As well as He Shuo Fujin, Zuo Ling and the wives of the third-class bodyguards and above, they all went to the Qianqing Palace to pay their respects to the emperor's remains.
Even the princes, princesses, Fujin, etc. of the nearby branch have to go to the Danbi Shang inside the Qianqing Gate to perform the "big burial ceremony".
At this time, a special servant welcomed Ruoyin and the others into the Qianqing Palace.
After entering the main hall, Ruoyin arrived at fourth master.
This man who hadn't been seen for several days.
He was wearing off-white clothing, with a few turns of off-white cloth tied around his head, and was kneeling in front of Kangxi's coffin, holding tea, serving food, and making a libation.
But I haven't seen him for a few days, he looks a little tired, as if he has gone through a lot.
The sharp eyes in the past are now bloodshot, and it makes people feel distressed just looking at them.
Just as Ruoyin was staring at fourth master, fourth master looked back as if telepathically.
Immediately, the four eyes met.
Fourth Master's eyes were pale and without any color.
With so many people around, Ruoyin didn't like to make eye contact, let alone laugh.
After all, Kangxi just died, so she just smiled at her man, and others decided what to think and how to spread rumors.
So, she just bowed slightly to fourth master, and then looked away.
Next, there was a lama wearing a body and holding a law enforcement device, playing and chanting sutras continuously.
After about half an hour, the funeral ceremony ended.
At dusk, Ruoyin planned to take the people in the backyard, as well as the children, back home to fast.
When there is a need, the palace will naturally send someone to pick it up.
However, just after Ruoyin left Qianqing Palace, Su Peisheng ran up to her and said, "Fu Jin, the emperor has arranged a temporary residence for you in the palace."
