In a sense, Meng Lanshan's death was a sacrifice for the country, so the world should respect him.
But looking at the details, it seems that there are some causes and consequences.
During the time of the late emperor, he had been wise to protect himself and hid in Tibet, thus missing the best time to treat the late emperor. Because of this, he had to bear the infamy of a corpse minister.
But this time, he used his dying body to try his best to save his life. From this point of view alone, he is a well-deserved loyal minister.
Looking at the front and back, we can see that he is the emperor who fails and the emperor succeeds.
But no matter what, he has become a hero who sacrificed his life for righteousness. Even if it was inappropriate at the time, it can be completely overturned now.
As soon as the corpse minister said, it's over.
From a secular perspective, Meng Lanshan's death is a very rare joy and mourning.
What's more worth mentioning is that he also exerted his remaining heat while holding a candle in the wind, and created immortal achievements before his death.
With such a happy ending, what is there to regret?
Moreover, Meng Lanshan had no illness or disaster during his lifetime, and did not suffer any form of suffering. As a person aged like this, he is very close to the ideal Dzogchen.
If there are any regrets to say, it is a bit too much.
It can be seen that this is indeed a joy and mourning, and an absolute joy and mourning.
The ministers took this as a lesson and encouraged Qi Yu and Meng Jiming to mourn and submit.
The most important thing at the moment is to think more about how to deal with the old man's funeral. There is no point in sighing and sighing.
Mencius said: Maintaining one's health is not a big deal, but giving up one's life can be a big deal. Therefore, mourning should be the most important thing.
When it comes to funerals, there is something special about it.
According to traditional customs, whenever there is a celebration or a funeral, a big banquet should be held after the funeral to entertain relatives and friends hospitably. In addition, a suona team will be invited to add to the lively atmosphere.
This festival is essential for the elderly who have passed away. Otherwise, it is stingy.
In the officialdom, there are more sophisticated morals.
According to common practice, when Meng Lanshan passed away, shouldn't his son Meng Jiming invite Ding You himself?
This is a super problem that cannot be avoided.
If you don't invite me, then you are being loyal but not filial.
After careful consideration, Meng Jiming decided to ask Ding You to return to his hometown, and then weave grass into his house to serve as a filial piety for three years, and then pledged his loyalty to the country.
But here comes the problem.
I am still in a coma. Who will approve Ding You's petition?
Otherwise, just wait and see?
It's possible, but Qi Yu doesn't like this arrangement very much.
His concept is more inclined to be buried as early as possible. If the hanging coffin does not fall, how can he rest in peace?
In other words, Meng Jiming must return to his hometown so that his husband can return to his roots.
After the discussion, Lord Meng turned his attention to the prince who was the supervisor of the country at the time.
Has Li Hongyu ever encountered such a problem?
For a moment, I was a little overwhelmed.
When he was feeling melancholy, he suddenly remembered what his father had told him before: If you are unclear about internal affairs, you can ask Yin Jun; if you are not sure about external affairs, you can ask Boxuan.
This matter is an internal matter, why not listen to Yin Aiqing's opinion?
good!
"Um...what does Yin Aiqing think of this?"
"Well, let's do this..."
In order to take the prince's face into consideration, Yin Jun stepped forward and whispered advice to the prince.
Li Hongyu, on the other hand, nodded while listening, and showed a look of being taught.
After listening, he said loudly: "I believe that in the current chaos, there is an urgent need for ministers to stabilize the discipline. Taking this as a lesson, I want to take away Meng Aiqing's love. As the saying goes, loyalty and filial piety cannot have both, and should be Put justice first.”
"However, I will give you three months to support your return home."
Meng Jiming was about to say more, but he saw Qi Yu shaking his head at him. After understanding, he had no choice but to close his mouth.
Looking at the overall situation, Yin Jun's point of view is indeed correct.
The current situation is stable. As the core minister, Meng Jiming, how can Ding You be at home?
Regarding this matter, Qi Yu strongly agrees with Yin Jun's point of view, so he must support it.
After settling down, Meng Jiming came forward again.
"Brother Qi Xian, in your opinion, how should my father's funeral be organized?"
"His Highness only gave you three months, which is really not much. If you exclude the time spent on the way back and forth to arrive, there is not much left. In my opinion, it is better to cancel the coffin and return home directly with the coffin. . After returning to Yongchuan, the formal funeral ceremony will be held. At that time, I will also go to Dai Xiao in person to see my mentor off. "
Cancel the suspension?
All right!
Compared with Qi Yu who was more open-minded, Meng Jiming seemed a bit confused and difficult to explain.
He always felt that he had not fulfilled his filial piety as a son of man.
Ever since his father returned from overseas voyages, he has been practicing medicine in Qiongzhou Province to help people. During this period, he never returned to his hometown once. But this rare return, he drove off to the west without even entering his own home. How can this not be sad?
However, life is unsatisfactory nine times out of ten, so how can there be true perfection?
I still want to be a little more open...
Next, there is a simple farewell ceremony.
Everyone, headed by the prince, all knelt down to pay their last respects to Meng Lanshan's body with great respect.
The deceased was the most important person, not to mention that he was the hero of the rescue. The old man could definitely bear this kneeling.
Qi Yu also kowtowed respectfully a few times, then bowed to his knees and watched his mentor's body leave.
After everything was settled, he came to his niece Sun Qiaoyun to offer some comfort.
Objectively speaking, this girl's opportunities are not generally good. There are many people who want to become Meng Lanshan's disciple, but she is the only one who can. Even his uncle Qi Yu was only an outer disciple in name only.
The friendship between master and apprentice over the years has long been engraved in her heart. How could it not make her sad to say goodbye to her master now?
Seeing his niece crying non-stop, Qi Yu had no choice but to comfort her with kind words. It took a lot of effort to persuade her.
Sun Qiaoyun, who had calmed down, suddenly flashed his eyes and whispered: "Uncle, I have something important that I want to report to you."
Qi Yu was startled when he heard this and asked curiously: "What's the big deal?"
Sun Qiaoyun said with fear: "During the operation, the queen took advantage of the opportunity when the husband was not paying attention and moved some hands and feet on His Majesty's body. However, I discovered this scene. At that time, I was about to say something to stop him, but When I saw her glaring at me, I was so frightened that I didn’t dare to say anything.”
"Is this true?"
"Absolutely true!"
This matter is very serious!
It is necessary to have an in-depth understanding, otherwise, mistakes will be made.
To be cautious, he planned to have a private conversation with his niece before making a decision.
In view of this, he took Sun Qiaoyun into the Yangxin Hall on the pretext of visiting the emperor.
