After such a complicated ceremony, the female relatives stopped mourning and evacuated outside the house.
Fang Yixun and Fang Yijian's brothers also signaled Fang Jun to go out together, leaving only Fang Chengzong and Fang Yijian's son Fang Chengzu, together with the older elders of the same clan, to make preparations for decorating the mourning hall.
The most important step right now is to publish the obituary notice. Notify old relatives and friends of the old man's death and come to express their condolences.
In the study room, the writer is a teacher in the house, and there is also the old housekeeper in the house, discussing the list of obituaries. There is no room for sloppiness in this. If one or two people are left out, it would be very rude and cannot be done.
The friendship in the past was completely severed.
The two Fang brothers looked worried while discussing.
Although Fang Jun was a little strange, he couldn't bear to ask. Although they are blood relatives, the two families have lived in separate places for a long time and are thousands of miles apart, so the relationship is not too close. He is here to represent Fang Xuanling, the Fang family in Chang'an, and An
Just gather the people together quietly. If you talk too much, people may not only not appreciate it, but also think that he is meddling in other people's business. Why bother?
With this thought, Fang Jun sat there quietly, tasting the Longjing tea he brought with him.
By the way, Qizhou is really a good place. It has been known as the "City of Ten Thousand Springs" since ancient times. There are springs everywhere outside the city, and the water is clear, soft and sweet. It is the best for making tea, which makes this Longjing tea suddenly improve.
A grade.
Although the two Fang brothers were surprised by Fang Jun's calm demeanor and the elegant and distant fragrance of the tea in the cup, they were suddenly occupied by sadness.
Fang Yi Jian sighed: "According to the rules, the funeral will be held seven days after my father's death, and five days later, the grave will be divination to determine the size, location, and depth of the grave. But now, the place where the ancestor's grave is is blocked by the Wu family.
Xiangkou, how do you bury your father? It’s really annoying to think about it. My Fang family is also a family of ministers and has made outstanding achievements, but even the ancestral grave is almost occupied..."
As he spoke, he glanced at Fang Jun, who was sipping tea with his head down, with a hint of complaint in his tone.
Even if the second uncle Fang Xuanling cannot come back in person, at least the eldest brother Fang Yizhi should come and ask for a favor from His Highness the King of Qi on behalf of the second uncle. Presumably the King of Qi will not fail to sell the second uncle's favor. But Fang Jun
What can this mallet do?
Before the Tang Dynasty, fortune telling and burial day fortune telling were considered unpopular superstitious techniques of feng shui divination. However, the Kaiyuan Rites of the Tang Dynasty included these two into the sixty-six funeral ceremony programs and gave them legal constraints.
This shows that the Tang people relied on Feng Shui and the popularity of Feng Shui in the Tang Dynasty.
People in the Tang Dynasty paid great attention to Feng Shui and believed that "wealth and official status are all caused by burial; prolongation of life is also caused by the tombs."
Therefore, the Feng Shui of the Yin House is a top priority, even more so than that of the Yang House.
It was inevitable that Fang Yi Jian would complain.
Fang Yixun scolded softly: "Second brother, be careful what you say!"
He has heard for a long time that Fang Jun is vulgar, violent and arrogant. Although he seems to be stable now, who knows whether he will explode at the slightest disagreement? If Fang Jun makes a fuss at this time, everyone will be shocked.
The Zhoufang family's face has been completely disgraced...
Fortunately, Fang Jun still lowered his head to sip the tea, as if the tea was the nectar from the sky, and he just turned a deaf ear to the outside world.
At this time, the old housekeeper came over with the list of obituaries, placed it in front of Fang Yixun, and asked: "Let's take a look, sir, are there any omissions?"
This old housekeeper belongs to the elderly in the family and is very familiar with the family's interactions with relatives and friends.
Fang Yixun picked up the list, and Fang Yijian also came over. The two brothers compared each one one by one and considered it carefully until they confirmed that no one was left behind. Then they breathed a sigh of relief and said to the old housekeeper: "Copy the obituary immediately according to the regulations.
Instruct your servants at home to go and report the funeral one by one."
The old housekeeper responded, looked at Fang Jun who was sitting still, hesitated to speak, sighed slightly, and walked out.
How could Fang Yixun not know what the old housekeeper was thinking?
But this Fang Jun's reputation was so bad that he didn't dare to place his hopes on him. However, who in Qizhou City could influence His Highness the King of Qi?
After all, Fang Yijian was younger and more impulsive. At this time, he said angrily: "The worst thing is, just like Chengzong said before, he will lead his people to break in and forcibly clean up the Wu family's house. My second uncle will be in charge."
Chang'an, what do the Wu family dare to do to us? Even if the lawsuit goes to His Majesty, we will be the ones who are right!"
Fang Yixun frowned and said, "How can you be so stupid? If the Wu family refuses to give in and are stuck together, what will happen to my father's funeral?"
Fang Yijian said angrily: "Then what do you think we should do? We have given in to each other and endured again and again, but the Wu family is so arrogant and domineering, how have they ever given in? It's a pity that it's too late to write to the second uncle at this time, otherwise we would definitely be able to get it.
An imperial edict, let’s see what the Wu family and King Qi have to say!”
Now that his father Fang Xuanling was mentioned, Fang Jun couldn't continue to act stupid and had to ask: "I wonder what happened that put the two brothers in such a difficult position?"
Fang Yijian was so angry that she glanced at Fang Jun, turned her head and snorted softly.
What can you do if your yellow hair has been shed completely? Even if you know this, what can you do? I don’t know what the second uncle is thinking, why did you let this coward come over?
Fang Jun touched his nose, a little puzzled.
We remain silent and mind our own business. When did we offend you? If I hadn’t mentioned Fang Xuanling in my words, I would have asked out of politeness, who would have bothered to pay attention to you?
Fang Yixun coughed lightly and said displeasedly: "How can my second brother be so rude?"
After reprimanding Fang Yijian in a gentle way, Fang Yixun said to Fang Jun: "This matter is of great importance, and Yiai has the right to know."
At that moment, he slowly revealed the fate of the future.
The ancestral grave of the Fang family is located on Shungeng Mountain in the south of the city. It is a rare geomantic treasure land.
The cemetery has a directional opening, which is the direction of Feng Shui, attracting wind and gathering energy.
In the summer, the Wu family, a wealthy businessman in Qizhou City, bought an unowned piece of land on Shungeng Mountain and built a house, saying it was for summer escape.
In fact, it's pure bullshit.
That piece of land is surrounded by cemeteries. Where can I build a house to escape the heat and trick ghosts?
This house happened to be built on the entrance to the Fang family's ancestral grave, blocking it tightly. How could the Fang family be willing to give up? So they came to the door. At first, the Wu family sent their daughter to the Qi Prince's Mansion and became a
The concubine, who was deeply loved by King Li You of Qi, was very arrogant and domineering, and did not take the Fang family into consideration at all. After several communications, many dignitaries in the city came forward to help the Fang family.
The Wu family was relieved.
The house will never be demolished. Since it blocks the entrance to your graveyard, then just sell the land of your ancestral grave to me and your family will move the grave. The price is whatever you want, no questions asked.
At this point, who else can't understand what the Wu family is hiding?
