Yu Wenshu's face was as good as Yang Yue's, his speaking skills were impeccable, and he didn't give in to Pei Ju. He forced Chen Shuyi to stay in the house overnight for three days.
Of course, part of the reason is that this was originally Chen Shuyi's childhood residence. She has no feelings for people, but she still has some concerns about her childhood living environment.
That's how people are, she will never forget the place she lived in when she was a child until the day she dies.
This phenomenon was particularly serious in ancient times, or it can be said that fallen leaves are returning to their roots. After Gao Xi returned to his hometown, he stroked the bluestone pillars that had been coated with pulp at the door of his old house. At a glance, it was his life.
The most difficult thing for a person to change in his life is his local accent.
Not long after Liang Pigang died, Changsun Chi also died of illness.
These two people were important ministers of the two dynasties, and the death of old ministers one by one also indicated that the Sui Dynasty would slowly usher in a wave of replacement between the old and the new.
The group of people who once held important positions in the Northern Zhou Dynasty will gradually fade out of the court, and the Sui Dynasty will gradually get rid of the influence of the Northern Zhou elders. The faster these people die, the lighter the burden on the national treasury will be.
The posthumous title for Changsun Chi was chosen by Ouyang Xun, and Yang Ming was very satisfied.
It stands to reason that Changsun Sheng no longer has a title. He was once the founding son of Raoyang County. He was a viscount, but Yang Guang has canceled the viscount. But anyway, he is one of the eight, and he is the eldest son of Luoyang.
The family's character must be given a posthumous title.
The word "quiet".
The person who is gentle and virtuous is called Jing when he tests others; the person who offers fresh words to himself is called Jing; the person who is generous and happy is called Jing at the end of his life. This is a beautiful posthumous title.
Since there is no title, his eldest son, eldest grandson Anshi, has nothing to attack. Although the eldest son's family was dissatisfied, he petitioned the court to request a title, but Yang Ming rejected it.
Changsun Sheng has not received a title for his great achievements, so why should the seemingly mediocre Changsun Chi be granted a title?
However, another scandal arose in front of Changsun Chi's mourning hall. Changsun Wuji went to mourn, but was kicked out.
Because in name, Changsun Wuji has been kicked out by his brothers and has nothing to do with the Changsun family. His brothers are not allowed to pay tribute to his biological uncle.
This is a family matter. It is not easy for Yang Ming to take care of other people's family affairs, but there are people who dare to take care of it.
"Father, I would like to express my condolences to the eldest grandson, Shangshu. Is it possible?" This was the first time Yang Rui took the initiative to request his father, although there was no hint of request in his words.
After Changsun Chi passed away, all the yamen in the imperial city went to express their condolences, and the East Palace also sent memorial tributes, but Yang Ming himself had not gone yet. Yang Rui meant, I will go on your behalf.
This is completely reasonable. It is natural for a son to handle some social interactions for his father.
Yang Yinjiang naturally knew what her son was planning, and frowned and said, "Nonsense, don't get involved in this kind of thing."
The emperor generally would not interfere with the ministers' family affairs, and of course, the ministers could not interfere with the emperor's family affairs.
This is why, in history, many emperors wanted to change the prince, and when they asked their ministers, the ministers' answers were: This is His Majesty's family matter, and it is not appropriate for me to interfere.
Dugu Jialuo wanted to give Gao Xi a new wife, but he had to say hello to Gao Xi first. Gao Xi didn't agree, so Dugu Jialuo had no choice but to give up.
Changsun Wuji only had the surname Changsun in name, and the Changsun family no longer recognized him.
On the contrary, Yang Ming felt that this was a good opportunity for his son to capture the loyalty of Changsun Wuji, so he nodded and said:
"Don't mess around when you go. Leave after you have expressed your condolences."
He won't worry about the eldest son's family not letting his son in, because no one has the guts.
After receiving his father's permission, Yang Rui was instantly overjoyed. He jumped up, saluted his parents, and ran out quickly.
"Although Ying Hui is young, he is stable, but he is afraid that the people of the world will instigate him. What should he do if something happens?" Yang Yinjiang said with a bitter smile.
Yang Ming said indifferently: "Don't worry, this guy Shimin is extremely mature. If he really wants to do something bad, he won't be caught."
The current three young men of the East Palace, Changsun Wuji and Li Shimin, are Yang Rui's dog-headed strategists. The difference is that Li Shimin dares to play the vanguard and fights in front, but Changsun Wuji cannot. Perhaps it has something to do with his own experience. He is not as masculine and heroic as Li Shimin.
.
As for Pei Shuying's son Yang Jin, his master was not Xue Daoheng, but Wang Tong, a great Confucian outside the palace.
At this time, the maid from Duke Chu's mansion who was brought back by Yang Ming took an ice towel and helped Yang Yinjiang wipe the sweat from her forehead.
There is an ice cellar in the palace. It is already summer and others are not so hot, but Yang Yinjiang cannot do it. She is particularly afraid of the heat.
"It is your blessing to be favored by His Highness now," Yang Yinjiang said with a smile: "Serve me well and it will be good for you in the future."
"This servant will never dare to neglect you. Please rest assured, Crown Princess," the little maid said.
After all, she was from her mother's family, so Yang Yinjiang didn't mind. Originally, the girl's surname was Pang, but she changed her surname to Yang and gave her a name, Fulin.
Being favored by the prince means great fortune comes to your door, isn't it?
Yang Yinjiang directly lifted up her skirt, exposing her thighs, and let Fulin wipe them carefully. Yang Ming saw this and frowned:
"Are you suffering from yin deficiency and excessive fire? This is not sweating, but night sweats."
"The doctor who gave me prescriptions since I was a child said that this is not a disease. It comes from time to time. Sometimes I won't sweat like I do now," Yang Yinjiang said with a smile: "Don't dislike me?"
Yang Ming chuckled: "Don't drink cold water from now on. I've told you so many times to change your habit."
"I can change everything else, but I can't change this," Yang Yinjiang said in a coquettish tone.
Yang Ming said nothing more, got up and went to Cheng'en Hall.
.......
The three children of the East Palace left the palace. Yang Rui took some sacrifices and went to the Changsun Mansion to express his condolences.
On the way, he went to Changsun Wuji's house and brought Wuji's mother and sister with him.
She is a member of her husband's family when she is born, and a ghost of her husband's family when she dies. When Gao married Changsun Sheng, she became a member of Changsun's family, and she also had to wear mourning clothes.
The five levels of filial piety we are talking about are the five levels of filial piety: cutting off, Qi failing, great merit, small merit, and continuing.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The three members of the eldest grandson's family are all highly accomplished in the third level.
Mrs. Gao had already prepared all the mourning clothes. When her son arrived, the three of them quickly put them on and were led by Yang Rui to mourn their eldest grandson Chi.
This is what the ancients did. If you don't recognize me as my nephew, I still have to recognize you as my uncle.
As soon as they arrived at the gate of Changsun Mansion, the faces of several young people changed instantly when they saw Changsun Wuji and his mother.
"Your Highness the King of Qin, Wuji is no longer a member of my family and it is not appropriate to enter." The person who spoke was Changsun Wuji's eldest brother Changsun Xingbu.
Changsun Chi's sons did not say a word. They did not reject Changsun Wuji, but now that Changsun Wuji had been expelled from the family, according to the rules, they could not show their filial piety.
But no matter what, we are also cousins. We don’t care if your room is like this. But today, the King of Qin brought people here to express condolences on behalf of the prince. You are not allowed to enter, which is unreasonable.
"I have to ask, for what reason did you expel Wuji from your house?" Li Shimin took a step forward and said:
"Throughout the ages, only those who have committed serious crimes can have their genealogy canceled after discussion with the elders in the family. You are an elder brother and a brother of the same generation. What qualifications do you have?"
"The eldest brother is a father, don't the people of the world know?" Changsun Xing preached.
Li Shimin said directly: "So, Wuji still has to call you grandpa?"
"What a mess," Changsun Xingbu snorted coldly.
At this time, Changsun Chang received the news and ran out. When he saw that the younger generation in the family blocked King Qin from the door, he went up to him and slapped Changsun Xingbu in the face with a big-eared melon seed.
"You evildoer, get out of here."
There are four brothers, Changsun Sheng, and currently only the fourth, Changsun Chang, is still alive. He used to be a bodyguard for Yang Guang during the Jin Dynasty, so he now has a Zuo Yiwei Zhonglang general in the Zuo Yiwei Mansion.
"Chang Sun Chang, please pay homage to His Highness the King of Qin and invite His Highness to enter the palace." Chang Sun Chang glanced at Chang Sun Wuji behind Yang Rui and said nothing.
Not many of Changsun's family are in Beijing, and most of them don't need to come, because Changsun Chi is going back to Luoyang for burial, so just attend the funeral at that time.
Therefore, Sun Chang, the fourth eldest son, is temporarily responsible for presiding over the funeral. He will not be able to take over until the head of the family from Luoyang comes over. Chen Shuming is still in charge of Honglu Temple. He has already taken charge of two funerals this year.
Yang Rui and the others arrived suddenly without even saying hello, so after receiving the news, the condolences guests in the house ran out one after another to greet Yang Rui.
With this big tree, Changsun Wuji naturally entered the mansion safely.
The deceased was the most important person, and with his status as Yang Rui, he placed a stick of incense, and then lightly dusted the altar table with a whisk, which was regarded as condolences. This action almost meant that he was on his way to a good trip.
Li Shimin is a junior, so he has to bow to the spiritual throne with his hands clasped.
Chen Shuming waited until Changsun Wuji and others kowtowed, and then hurriedly said to Changsun Chang:
"Wuji is a nephew, and he also has to watch the funeral. You make arrangements."
"Yes, yes, yes," Changsun Chang nodded quickly. His rank is not as high as that of Chen Shuming, Shaoqing, and the second-in-command.
Originally, the house was very quiet, but when Yang Rui left the mourning hall, there was a lot of movement in the front yard, and along with the shouts of insults, Yang Xuangan came in a hurry.
As soon as he entered the door, he learned from other condolences guests that his grandson had just stayed at the door for a long time before entering.
Yang Xuangan was instantly angry. That was my grandson.
Who was he scolding in the front yard? The three brothers Changsun Xingbu, Changsun Hengye and Changsun Anye.
"It's really unreasonable to offer condolences as an honored guest. How dare you neglect His Majesty's grandson?"
Xuangan, this is the elder. He and Changsun Chi are equals, even though Changsun Chi is more than ten years older than him.
Lu Chu, who came with him, hurriedly persuaded him, "The deceased is the most important person, so you shouldn't cause trouble in front of the mourning hall."
Xuangan was also restrained. After cursing for a while, he gave up. The Changsun family did not dare to complain because it was the truth, but they were also helpless. King Qin came too suddenly, and many people did not know King Qin at all.
"My grandson has met my grandfather," Yang Rui saluted Xuangan.
This feeling of pretentiousness is so satisfying. At the moment, in the entire Changsun Mansion, he is the only one who can make Yang Rui salute.
I saw him hurried forward and took his grandson's hand:
"Why is Ying Hui here?"
"I express my condolences on behalf of my father. By the way, grandfather, are there any members of your family who have been exterminated? I don't understand this rule. Please explain it to me," Yang Rui said this to the eldest son next to him, Sun Chang.
Listen.
Of course Xuangan knew what was going on. Why did he come by such a coincidence? His daughter reported the news and asked him to come and keep an eye on it so that Yang Rui wouldn't cause trouble.
