Man is inherently dead, either heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than Hong Mao, and in the early morning hours of September 9, 1976, the great man died in Zhongnanhai. The people of the whole country went to Zhongnanhai with a sad mood to bid farewell to the great man. He made a great contribution to the independence, establishment, growth and development of the new China, and any rhetorical embellishments seem too pale.
However, this day finally came, people in the grief still have to insist on completing the work behind, the disposal of the body, the arrangement of the farewell ceremony, who is invited to participate, who will preside over the follow-up work... These problems are urgently needed to be solved. First of all, the disposal of remains is a major problem that bears the brunt of it.
The body must be well preserved, at least through the time of the farewell of the body, who will do the work, how to do it, there are many details and emergencies, which must be prepared before the event occurs. In order to allow the body to be preserved for a longer time, the mourning music was removed during the ceremony, and even the lights were turned on as much as possible.
First, the bad news of the night
In fact, the physical condition of the great man was not very good several years ago, and for the sake of the growth and development of New China, it is even more important to prevent people in the international community who are unfriendly to New China and have ulterior motives from being unfavorable to New China and concealing their unwell condition to the outside world. Therefore, many people think that the death of the great man is very sudden.
In the next few years, the body of the great man is getting worse, coupled with the age, all kinds of geriatric diseases have also begun to develop, moreover, the great man has been fighting outside all year round, all kinds of complex situations gathered together, the body is naturally worse. That being said, it is still very difficult to accept after it actually happens. Now that things have happened, timely handling is the most important thing.
Therefore, shortly after the death of the great man, Xu Jing, who was asleep, received such a phone call, the other party said that he was a cadre of the central government, and the car that picked you up had gone to your home, so that she could quickly take the car to Zhongnanhai, and Xu Jing at that time was very surprised. Late night phone calls, generally there is no good news, Xu Jing can't help but get nervous.
After cleaning up, Xu Jing immediately got on the car to go to Zhongnanhai, and at the same time there was Liu Xiangping, minister of health, on the car, Xu Jing was even more uncertain, the atmosphere on the car was solemn, Xu Jing did not dare to ask casually, so she went all the way to Zhongnanhai in silence. After getting out of the car, Wang Dongxing immediately came up to them and told them that there were very important things for them to complete.
Xu Jing tried to ask what was the matter, and Wang Dongxing choked up and said that the great man had died, and they needed to quickly dispose of the great man's body, and they must persist until the end of the ceremony. Hearing this news, Xu Jing was shocked and sad, and for a moment there was no reflection, until Wang Dongxing called her several times.
2. Orders in the face of danger
Reacting, Xu Jing quickly thought about the problems that needed to be dealt with in her brain, saying: I have to look at the situation of the whole body before I can continue the next step, and I will discuss and complete the work with the experts, and finally, I need time to prepare the equipment and medicines I need. After Wang Dongxing agreed, Xu Jing began to get busy.
Xu Jing immediately returned to the hospital to report the situation to the hospital leaders, and formed an expert group to discuss the process of follow-up work, after repeated discussions, Xu Jing and his party gave a plan. And report to the superior leaders in a timely manner. When the superior leader asked whether he was sure, Xu Jing answered the question realistically, and Chairman Hua knew that he could not delay any longer, so he made a decision.
Xu Jing returned from studying in the Soviet Union, and there is no doubt about her knowledge and technology, but it is inevitable that Xu Jing will be nervous about protecting the remains of great people, and it is not only necessary to preserve the remains well, but also to look lifelike, which makes the work more difficult. Xu Jing and her colleagues disposed of the remains of the great man in a pre-agreed method.
After the treatment was completed, the size was measured and sewn overnight, and finally, the body of the great man appeared in a perfect state at the farewell ceremony of the body. In September, Beijing is very hot, although the indoor temperature has been adjusted to 15 degrees Celsius, but due to the large number of people, lights, musical instruments and other reasons, the temperature is far more than the set temperature, which is not conducive to the preservation of the remains.
Therefore, after the ceremony on the first day, Xu Jing reflected the situation to the superiors in a timely manner, and the superiors also attached great importance to it, and withdrew the band and changed it to the way of playing, and the lights were not turned on as much as possible, only the headlights above the great man were retained. After the ceremony, the superiors held a meeting and decided: the remains of the great man will be preserved permanently.
In fact, as early as 1956, the great man and the superior leaders have signed a proposal to agree to the burial of the remains after cremation, ancient China has always been non-cremation, and later for the sake of environmental protection, began to advocate cremation, the great man first signed the proposal, and also joked to his nurses, scattering his ashes to the rivers, lakes and seas.
He liked to eat fish when he was alive, and let them eat themselves when he died. Although the open-minded great man had signed the proposal, the superior leaders decided to keep the body of the great man permanently after discussion. This heavy responsibility naturally fell on Xu Jing. Xu Jing naturally understood that this time the task was more arduous.
After discussing with colleagues, Xu Jing decided to use the method of imitation of ancient body preservation, modeled on the composition of the ancient body protection liquid to create a body protection liquid, and adopted the liquid protection for worship, and the rest of the time gas protection method to achieve the effect of double protection. After the completion of the memorial hall, the remains of the great man were moved to the memorial hall for safekeeping.
summary
Today, the remains of the great man are still well preserved, admired by people from all over the world, although the protection of the body of the great man is very difficult, but everything is worth it, and the details of the treatment are all-encompassing, not only the body is well preserved, at the same time, even the facial expression is very peaceful. These appearances are enough to prove that Xu Jing and her colleagues were careful when they handled it.
Although the great man has been dead for many years, his contributions cannot be ignored, and his contributions have been written in the annals of history for posterity to understand. Remember. He spent his life realizing the founding of the country and the rejuvenation of the nation. Is a rare leader.
