The road of the favorite concubine in three lives is destined

Chapter 25 Zhang Duo officially cooperates with the prince

At this time, the funeral had already begun. The prince, Yiwan, the crown princess, and many powerful people had all come.

Original intention: After a loved one dies, the body must first be treated, including cleaning and changing clothes. If it is a woman, the hair needs to be tied up with a cloth strip, and men need to shave.

After the basic matters of the deceased's body are taken care of, family members will send messengers to inform relatives and friends of the unfortunate news of the deceased and inform them of the time and arrangements for the funeral. For relatives and friends who are not around, arrangements will be made for them to return home as soon as possible to participate in the funeral.

After hearing the news of the death of a relative, the deceased will rush to his home and cry with the family members to mourn the deceased. This behavior is regarded as a release of emotion and respect for the deceased in traditional Chinese culture.

After the wake, the family members will stay with the deceased in the mourning hall, sometimes even staying up all night. During the wake, there will be specific rituals, such as calling the soul, which aims to preserve the spiritual existence of the deceased.

After the funeral ceremony, the deceased will be formally placed in the coffin, a process called burial. During burial, new silk clothes and quilts are usually used to show respect for the deceased.

There will be a series of funeral activities during the funeral procession, including the rituals of carrying the coffin, carrying the body and throwing the body. The funeral process is considered to be the last moment of bidding farewell to the deceased, so it is very solemn and cautious.

The mourning period lasts for nine days (9 days). Family members need to continue to mourn and avoid celebrations and other entertainment activities. There are certain norms for clothing and life during the mourning period, which reflects the deep remembrance of the deceased.

After the ceremony, the prince said to Lin's father, "Please accept my condolences, father-in-law." At this time, Lin's father was already crying and said to the prince, "I only have these two sons. How can I live in the future?" The prince was actually very happy. This was just the beginning. The prince said, "Father-in-law, please treat me as your son from now on." General Lin was very comforted.

At this time, the Crown Princess went into her mother's room to visit her mother. Mother Lin could no longer speak. The doctor said that she was anxious and might not live for more than five days. The Crown Princess was furious and scolded the useless people, saying that if anything happened to my mother, none of you would survive. At this time, the Crown Prince came in and pretended to comfort her, saying, "It's okay, Crown Princess, don't be anxious." The Prince pretended to be affectionate with the Crown Princess in front of Mother Lin. The Crown Princess fell into the Crown Prince's arms and cried. The Prince comforted the Crown Princess' head.

This is what Lin's mother suddenly wanted to say, but she was too weak from anger to speak. After all, she had not eaten anything since her two sons disappeared, and she cried every day until her voice became hoarse.

Seeing this, the maid brought paper and ink and asked Lin's mother to write on a white paper. Lin's mother wrote, "Girl, I know I won't live for a few more days. Mother will follow your brother. You must take good care of yourself in the future and don't be willful. You will be alone from now on. You must come back to see your father often."

At this time, Lin's father came in and angrily scolded the doctor for being a quack, saying that if his wife could not be cured today, no one would be able to leave today. Lin's father sat beside Lin's mother's bed and cried.

The Crown Princess and the Crown Prince also went out at this time, so let them talk in private. The Crown Prince was holding the Crown Princess's hand in the house, but when he went out, he shook her hand away in disgust, almost knocking her down. The Crown Princess thought, is this pretending to be affectionate in front of her parents? As soon as she went out, she couldn't help but feel disgusted.
