Chronology of activities

1898, in the 24th year of Guangxu (the Reform Movement of 1898), Cai entered Beijing from Tianjin.

Cai Ronggui, Red Net, started to go to Beijing from Tianjin and took the stage in Guangde Building. He is a martial artist in a green robe and a contemporary of Wang Hongshou. Later, I worked as a teacher in Fulian City.

1April 4, 925, March of the second ugly year of the lunar calendar 12: Ma premiered Exotic Romance.

Ma premiered "Exotic Romance" at the Beijing Hua Paradise matinee. Ma plays Zhuge Liang, Hao, Zhu, Zhou Ruian and co-stars.

This play is adapted from the old play "Seven Capture Meng Huo", which starts with "Three Capture Meng Huo", interspersed with "Getting married" and ends with "Sacrificing Lujiang", and is rehearsed by Mr. Cai.

1938 February 16, 17th day of the first lunar month: Yang Xiaolou continued.

Yang Xiaolou was buried the day before yesterday, and today he will accept it three times.

Yang Xiaolou left a will before his death, saying that he had become a monk in Baiyun Temple, and his name had been published in the Jade Emperor's Dengzhenzuo. His body, life and spirit are not under the jurisdiction of the Ten Hall Yanjun, but are controlled by the "three officials". Therefore, after "feathering", you must put on Taoism and "three thousand women in Taoism and twelve jade pagodas in Tianjing" before you can go to Xianyou. His descendants followed suit, and his costume (burial suit) was a complete Taoist costume: a double-breasted white trousers coat, a small cotton-padded jacket and blue-collar trousers, with a big blue cotton robe outside. They are all tied with a sword-shaped belt. The outside is covered with a purple robe embroidered with gossip and Tai Chi patterns. Because there is no long hair on the top of the head, it is naturally impossible to tie it into a crown, so there is no ingot-shaped miscellaneous towel, so we have to wear a Zhuangzi with a piece of jade as a "hat" in the middle. I wore a pair of white socks under my feet, my trouser legs were put in the sock tube, and then I put on a pair of purple Qingyun head "cloud shoes". Holding the jade handle in both hands. It's completely a robe full of "truth" by burning immortals and practicing merits. Beneath you, it is "covered with gold and silver." However, the cover on the body is said to be a white quilt embroidered with the birthday celebration pattern of the Eight Immortals; Others say it is a "Hokkekyo quilt" covered with yellow silk and red Sanskrit Buddhist scriptures. The latter statement, of course, is incompatible with Taoist burial clothes. But it was probably influenced by the legacy of worshipping Buddhism in Qing Dynasty, so Buddhism and Taoism merged.

Yang Xiaolou's coffin is even more exquisite, but it is the "heavy material" of Jin Sinan's "four independent boards" (that is, the two sides, the bottom and the cover are all four whole boards), and it is a top-grade coffin. I bought it from the Romanesque Street Crane Year Longevity Wood Shop, which is worth 2400 yuan. As for the sacrificial objects in the coffin, there are different opinions. Judging from the communication report that Yang's tomb was stolen in the newspaper that year, its sacrificial objects were exquisite and numerous. In addition to Taoist artifacts such as swords, tooth tablets (dynasty slips) and blowing dust, there are also various ancient ceramics, hookahs, gold and silver jewelry, etc. However, it attracted future trouble. As the saying goes, "domestic thieves are hard to prevent". Dong Si and his associates who were guarding the grave in Songbai Temple unexpectedly dug it up.

Yang Xiaolou's funeral has two characteristics: first, it highlights the word "luxury" in general ostentation and extravagance; The second is to highlight the word "Tao" everywhere in etiquette. After Yang Yi's death, a towering and spectacular shed was set up in the hospital. According to the classical architectural form, the roof is the five ridges and six beasts, and it is also the "flower ridge" in the shape of ancient money. Seen from a distance, it looks like a tall temple. On three sides of the shed, a "prayer mat" (a platform in the room) was set up. This will not occupy the effective area of the hospital. The whole layout is: the mourning hall is in front, and the treasure Buddha platform is opposite. Opposite the platform, that is, above the mourning hall, there are yellow satin embroidered doors and banners. There are four yellow satin embroidered prayer flags in the middle of the shed roof, which match the banners and doors. On the roof of the shed, there are pavilions-style Taoist prayer flags, blue satin embroidered doors and banners, and four blue satin embroidered prayer flags are hung on the roof. The lower part of the shed is a Buddhist (monk) worship platform with red silk embroidered doors and banners, and the top of the shed is hung with four red silk embroidered banners. At first glance, it looks like a sacred place for gods and buddhas. In front of Yang's mourning hall, a big platform with a circumference of one foot and two feet was built. The four corners of the platform are supported by bright columns with green lacquer gold patterns, and the ceiling with crane patterns is installed on the top, symbolizing the sound of death, "Drive the crane to the fairy." Consistent with Yang Yisheng's belief, the upper and lower ends of the platform are covered with inscriptions by celebrities, chambers of commerce, Tzu Chi Association and Liyuan Association.

There is a big pilu hat-shaped shrine in the mourning hall. On the front, there is a big plaque "Yuen Long returns to the truth" sent by Cao Kun. There is a plain wreath under the plaque, decorated with small white flowers in the middle, forming a big "drink". Yang's coffin was placed on a coffin lid embroidered with birthday patterns in red silk. Outside the hood stands a huge portrait of Yang. In front of the portrait, there are five offerings of cloisonne, plus a pagoda-shaped "stuffy lamp" (that is, the ever-burning lamp, which is widely rumored by the people that the dark road is dark and must be lit to illuminate the dead); There are colorful gold and silver exquisite flowers in the flower tube; A pair of white blue wax is lit on the wax sticks on both sides; In the middle is a tripod-shaped incense burner. There is a tablecloth embroidered with blue satin and a white crane with Qingyun pattern in front of the platform. There is also a small table in front of the altar, on which there is a sandalwood stove and a pair of incense bowls for hanging people to burn incense. On the podium, Chen put two pairs of spiritual people; Near the coffin stood a pair of "children" (that is, golden couple) who guided the way. The golden boy held the banner and the jade girl carried the stove.

There are four pairs of paper ruler tables and a pair of Jinshan Yinshan bonsai on both sides of the platform. A pair of colorful brocade feet (cloth), which is a fixed routine. But the other two pairs of watches have the characteristics of Yang's funeral. A full set of cassock with paste: bean green face with ribbon on the sword and cassock with green collar; A robe with a dark blue and blue collar; Horseshoe-shaped mixed elements, one in the gatehouse of Zhuangzi; Color embroidered Qingyun white crane, red Eight Immortals vestment, orange Wanshou figure vestment, purple gossip Taiji figure vestment; Two pairs of white socks and two pairs of cloud shoes. A table is filled with Taoist relics: flags, swords, tokens, ceiling rulers, bamboo slips (water boards), earthquake altar wood, rice dishes, water purification bowls, poplar branches, cinnabar inkstones, writing brushes, yellow watch commemorative boxes, symbols and jade saggers. A table with Four Treasures of the Study: Wanli blue-and-white pen holder, gabled pen holder and copper pen holder; Insert a large sum and "an article" in the small print; Stone inkstone; A large bronze ink bottle is engraved with a five-character poem written by Jia Dao in Tang Dynasty: "I asked your students under a pine tree," and he replied, "My teacher," to collect herbs. However, through these clouds, how can I know which corner of the mountain it is facing? . "A pair of copper paperweights; "Longmen" is covered with a box of gold ink ingots and a box of colored banknotes, painted with the pattern of Songtao Shuiyue, and has a double-hook official script: "Rivers are thousands of miles away, and there are clouds in Wan Li". There is also a mantle lamp. The other table is filled with antique furnishings: two pairs of hardwood brocade boxes with purple satin grooves, in which there are stoves, ding, bottles and jars, and a group of geisha with pottery tiles and silver glazes. The kiln has become a purple "cornucopia" (golden house and silver room); Pastel magnetic basin, a "cash cow" with large red coral branches hanging gold and silver; A box of jade articles; A box of hookahs. These paper ghosts are so delicate that they can be confused. But outside the Peace Gate, there are two dressing rooms, yanshou temple Street, Henderson and Gaoji.

Today, we saw the road closed three times, and the broom lane of Yang funeral home set up a blue cloth shed across the street in advance. Plain archways were set up on both sides of the shed and in front of the funeral parlour. A pair of big drums and gongs with double flower baskets on a red background were set up in the shed, which made the guests overwhelmed. In the afternoon, yanshou temple Street and Liulichang in the west, Huofan Hutong and Meishi Street in the east and south, people from all walks of life, mainly Liyuan, went to Yangzhai to offer their condolences. Only people inside and outside the show, including famous actresses Shang Xiaoyun, Gao Qingkui, Shen Manhua, Li Hongchun, Liu Yanting and Wang Fushan, attended the ceremony in person. Such as, Yu Yaoqing, Wang Fengqing, Yu Zhenting, Cai, Tan, Cheng, Ma Fulu, Zhang, Ye, Guo Chunshan, Yan Lanting, Li Yongli, Xun Huisheng, Wang Songling, Ding Shuili, Yu Lianquan, Yu Yongli, Chi Yueting, Yang Chunlong, Wang Youquan and Jin Zhong. Really a white horse, I can hang the Year of the Tortoise. In Peng Ling, the drum music of the Holy Spirit, the sound of the Buddha's name and the cries are mixed together.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, send three according to the funeral. Walking in front is the official drum music, the official blowing official playing 24 organ and the fine music of "Jiufu Class", followed by a big wheel cart with fine colored paper, with fine horses driving the shaft and a top horse in front; Followed by a mule. Outside the left window of the carriage, there is a yellow note that reads: "yangfu, the eldest father, the filial daughter Yang, the son-in-law, the grandson, etc. The filial piety of the whole family, etc. " There are also four-wheeled carriages, with large glass shutters on all sides and double horses; 8 people carry the green official sedan chair; Barbell box 4 lifts; 4 pier boxes; One crane (the second warehouse on the first floor has been sent to the incinerator in advance to wait).

On both sides of the paper, there are 8 white big angry wind lamps and 12 pairs of hexagonal hand covers for lighting. Behind Zhazhicaoling is the Lama Temple 13, playing Mongolian and Tibetan instruments such as drums and trombones. The Taoist priest of Baiyun Temple wore a pair of satin embroidered clothes, played clank and hafnium drums, and made great achievements in Bai, holding the Ruyi Hall. All the guests attending the farewell ceremony (mostly famous actresses) walked in double lines with incense and lanterns in their hands, forming a big fire dragon. After that, the monks of Tieshan Temple played the Buddha Brahma music with the sheng pipe flute, which was embarrassing to death. Yang's daughter, Rong Gui, is holding a piece of paper that never forgets money, and her son-in-law Liu Yanfang is holding a copper tea tray with a lighthouse made of Bala noodles by lamas. Children and grandchildren adhered to the Taoist scriptures and Zen scriptures respectively, and they were all in tears and were supported by their loved ones. Finally, Longquan Temple has 13 people. Play Seven Stars with Sue. The whole line for sending three people winds for about a mile. There are hundreds of stalkers. Three ranks were sent from No.20 Mansion in Broom Lane, out of the south exit of yanshou temple Street, through Liulichang, Changdian, Nanxinhua Street, to Hufang Bridge to burn ghost chariots and horses, and left after the ceremony.

On the third day, after discussing with Xiao Jia in the funeral home, it was decided that Yang's coffin would be hung at home for 15 days. Since the official opening of the altar today, there have been death ceremonies every day, except for the confessions invited by family members, including 7 tent scriptures sent by colleagues in Liyuan; Daojing 8 sheds; Zen sutra 10 shed. ***25 shed. All chanting, offering sacrifices, burning lamps and giving food are known to be Zhou Long. It is planned to be sent to the library on February 27th; 28th, inscription. According to the investigation of Kan Yujia, the land outside Yongdingmen was not suitable for burial because of "unfavorable direction", so it was temporarily buried in Taoranting Longquan Temple until next year.
