I Want To Be Qin II

Chapter 78: The mourners

There is no impenetrable wall in the world. Even if Ying Gao deliberately concealed it, even blocked it, the news of Lu Buwei's suicide still spread.

For a time, the land of the Central Plains was full of wind and clouds.

After 20 years in the Great Qin Dynasty, Lu Buwei, Wen Xinhou, who was so powerful in the Central Plains, committed suicide. As soon as the news came out, it caused a sensation in the Central Plains overnight.

Countless disciples rushed forward!

The dispersed diners rushed to Luoyang one after another, and the big merchants who had a close relationship with Lu's Trading Company in the early years also rushed to Luoyang after hearing the news.

At the same time, the monarchs and powerful ministers of the six countries who were inconvenient to appear publicly sent secret envoys to Luoyang to express their condolences.

What's more, Wei Guo, who was dying, made great fanfare, mainly ministers, and led officials to come in hemp and filial piety. In just a few days, thousands of people had gathered in Luoyang.

After receiving the news and seeing that the development of the matter was uncontrollable, the governor of Sanchuan hurriedly came to find Ying Gao to discuss it. He knew in his heart that this matter must not be delayed for a long time.

"Third Young Master, now merchants are gathering, diners are everywhere, secret envoys from the six countries are entering Luoyang, and officials from the Wei Kingdom are coming, wanting Wen Xinhou's body, what should we do now?"

The incident happened in Luoyang, which is the land of Sanchuan County. At this moment, the governor of Sanchuan County felt uneasy. If this matter is not well controlled, there will be chaos.

Hearing this, Ying Gao's eyes flashed, he knew that after Lu Buwei committed suicide, trouble finally came.

"Immediately send people to mobilize all the county soldiers in Sanchuan County, blockade Lu Buwei's mansion, and anyone who dares to break in from three feet away will be killed without mercy."

"At the same time, announce to the world that Wen Xinhou's funeral will be in charge of his wife and family elders. After everything is completed, the rest of the people can enter to express their condolences."

...

"promise."

Watching the governor of Sanchuan County leave, Ying Gao turned his head to signal to Wang Hu, and said, "Go to Wenxinhou's mansion immediately to ensure the safety of Mrs. Wenxinhou."

"Especially to prevent suicide!"

"My lord, it shouldn't be possible?" At this moment, Wang Hu's eyes flashed with surprise. In his opinion, Wen Xinhou's funeral has not yet ended, and there must be no chaos.

"in case!"

Ying Gao knew in his heart that it didn't matter that Lu Buwei's wife didn't matter, it didn't even matter that Wen Xinhou Lu Buwei committed suicide, but both of them committed suicide, and within a period of time, there would be chaos brewing.

Now that Qin Wangzheng is in charge, Daqin must not be disrupted because of Marquis Wenxin.

"promise."

...

After Wang Hu left, Ying Gao deduced in his heart whether there were any omissions. He knew that the longer Lu Buwei's death was delayed, the greater the trouble.

At this moment, he desperately hoped that King Qin could make a decision and send someone to collect the corpse.

...

At the time of Ying Gao's action, Lu Buwei's three thousand guests, together with big businessmen from all over the world, and secret envoys from various countries were instigated by those who wanted to, and the discussion was passionate.

"My lord, the news just came that the people who came to the funeral were very excited. If this continues, I'm afraid there will be trouble!" After a while, the governor of Sanchuan rushed over.

At this moment, his tone was full of solemnity, and he knew that this matter was troublesome.

Hearing this, Ying Gao's eyes were dark, and he shook his head at the governor of Sanchuan: "In the Great Qin, everything is governed by the laws of Qin, and even the father would not dare to violate it."

"However, according to the long-established funeral etiquette in the Central Plains, no matter how the deceased's funeral specifications are determined, there is a first set of procedures that must be carried out immediately after death."

"Preliminary ceremony is a must, but now that Tingwei's mansion has not arrived, looking at the whole of Luoyang, who would dare to rectify, summon the soul, place the corpse, and lay the curtain for Wen Xinhou."

Speaking of this, Ying Gao's tone was low, he paused every word, and said: "In Daqin, Qin Fa is supreme. Tell everyone in Luoyang that no one is allowed to mess around before Wen Xinhou's family has reported his death. Discussion."

"promise."

heard that,

The governor of Sanchuan was moved. He knew in his heart that after these four events, the family of the deceased could formally report the funeral to all parties, and then proceed with the funeral ceremony with the specified specifications.

At this time, this can only be used to hold back the mourners.

"Third Young Master, I know how to deal with it!" Suddenly, the governor of Sanchuan County made a decision in his heart, and the whole person's demeanor changed instantly.

Casting a glance at Sanchuan County Guard, Ying Gao said in a deep voice, "People from all over Shandong came to Luoyang originally for the funeral."

"Their purpose is just to attend the funeral hosted by me, Daqin, and see off Wen Xinhou for the last time. There may not be any resentment towards me, Daqin."

"But among them, there must be people who are dissatisfied with Daqin. The mourners rushed all the way to Luoyang with pain and sorrow. Seeing that everything is unprepared, they will inevitably be excited and easily led by others."

"Immediately send someone to count the visitors, and then make orderly arrangements for the guests' stay, mourning, memorial service, vigil and other matters."

"Before the king of Xianyang's order comes, we must do what we have to do, otherwise, Luoyang will be in chaos, and the people of the six kingdoms will definitely make trouble."

"I understand, Third Young Master, please rest assured!"

The governor of Sanchuan bowed solemnly to Ying Gao, and then left in a hurry. After Ying Gao reminded him, he finally realized that he had neglected these things.

"At the same time, a notice is issued: the body of Marquis Wenxin will be guarded by the county guard's mansion, waiting for the legal inspection by the Tingwei mansion. All funeral matters are subject to the king's order of Xianyang."

...

The governor of Sanchuan, with strong mobility, made preparations after discussing with Ying Gao, and posted the notice on the city wall of Luoyang.

It's just that as soon as this paper notice was published, coupled with the guidance of caring people, the public sentiment was raging, and it seemed to be out of control.

"Such a Qin law is not as good as a beast!"

Seeing that Luoyang was quiet and there was no sign of a major event, the mourners were already very angry. At this moment, when the announcement was made, the mourners became angry.

There are many people who scold Qin Fa.

Since ancient times, funerals have always been one of the rituals

First, the most taboo is tampering with the program, and the most taboo is frugality and mourning.

The dead are honored.

This is a rule that everyone must abide by, but the people of the Six Kingdoms are different from the people of the Great Qin Kingdom. In their hearts, due to the influence of Confucianism in Qidi, etiquette is the most important in the world.

In particular, Lu Buwei's identities were different, and there was someone with a heart to sow dissension. For a while, the crowd was raging, and their dissatisfaction with Daqin was vented.

"Everyone, since the state of Qin doesn't care, we can't let Marquis Wen Xin suffer such humiliation..." Zong Qing, chief minister of the state of Wei, said loudly.

"Yes, Wen Xinhou must not be allowed to suffer such humiliation..."

For a moment, a passionate voice sounded above the South Gate of Luoyang, and in just a short moment, it gathered into a mighty torrent, and a murderous aura filled the air.

The people attending the funeral were so crazy, even Ying Gao never thought that a single thought would almost cause trouble.
