Chapter 383: Smelling sadness, those who see it shed tears
I never thought that General Huo Xiao Huo would be such a result......
Bai Zimo's warm big hand held her slightly cool little hand and comforted her silently.
He could feel her embarrassment, because the heaviness in his heart was the same.
Maybe it was the news of Huo Xiao's death that made everyone seem to ignore the fact that Bai Zimo's leg was cured.
Everyone's attention was attracted by the procession of supporting spirits who arrived at the gate of the city.
At the forefront of the Fuling team were Cao Yong and Wei Biao.
The two of them were responsible for sending Huo Xiao's coffin back to Beijing.
Cao Yong and Wei Biao, both dressed in linen and filial piety, as soon as they saw Xu and Huo Xiaoya, they knelt down for Xu in unison, "The last general has seen Madame...... It's the last general who is incompetent, and he failed to protect the general, and he asks his wife to punish him!"
Cao Yong and Wei Biao, two big men, spoke with a nasal voice and choked in their throats, and they were pleading guilty to Xu.
It's all because they weren't rigorous enough that General Huo was assassinated.
Cao Yong and Wei Biao's self-blame were written on their faces.
In their eyes, Huo Xiao is like their eldest brother, and the Xu family, in their hearts, respects the Xu family like they respect their sister-in-law.
Xu's tears couldn't stop, if it weren't for Huo Xiaoya's support, she was afraid that she wouldn't even be able to stand steadily, with a slight trembling pace, with Huo Xiaoya's support, she walked into the black coffin, and there was a big white flower tied on it, Xu's trembling hand stroked the coffin, "Xianggong...... I'm here to pick you up......"
This is the first time Pei Qingqing has seen someone die in the real sense, or is it someone he respects......
It is said that people die like lights go out, but those who survive are the most painful......
In her impression, Xu has always been a gentle and generous wife and mother, and a real lady, but at this moment, Xu is lying on the coffin crying.
Pei Qingqing looked at it, how worried.
Huo Xiao's death is difficult not to grieve.
"Daddy...... Didn't you say that when you came back, you would take me on horseback...... Dad, why don't you talk...... Dad ...... "Huo Xiaoya is the same as Xu, the mother and daughter are lying on the coffin and crying.
It makes people smell sad and see tears when they see it.
Pei Qingqing's eyes were sour, and she couldn't bear to remove her eyes, and wiped the moisture at the corners of her eyes on Bai Zimo's shoulder.
Bai Zimo reached out and put his arm around her shoulder, telling her not to be too sad, after all, the deceased is gone...
Cao Yong and Wei Biao turned towards Xu again, "Madam...... Please also ask Mrs. to mourn and take care of your health, the general must not want Mrs. to be too sad......"
But how can Xu not be sad?
How could she not be sad that her husband was dead?
As if he hadn't heard Cao Yong and Wei Biao's words, Xu lay on the coffin and cried heartbroken.
"Huo Xiao, you treacherous ...... You promised me that you would come back safely...... You said you would be with me for the rest of your life...... You're gone... What do you want me to do...... Huo Xiao, what are you going to do with me......"
Xu's crying was heartbreaking, she was heartbroken, and scolded Huo Xiao painfully.
But Huo Xiao in the coffin couldn't get up to answer her anymore.
Xu's grief made everyone present feel clearly, everyone was infected by her grief crying, smelling sadness, and those who saw it shed tears.
"Mother...... Mother, don't be like this...... Mother..."Huo Xiaoya is sad, but she also has to take care of the Xu family, her father is no longer there, and she can't let anything happen to her mother.
Huo Xiaoya helped Xu up from the coffin and wanted to send her father home first.
Huo Xiaoya helped Xu Shi and instructed Cao Yong and Wei Biao, "Take my father home..."
"Yes..."Cao Yong and Wei Biao were equally sad, but they still had to send General Huo home.
Throughout the whole process, Pei Qingqing wanted to comfort Huo Xiaoya, but she couldn't insert it.
She couldn't even say anything to comfort Huo Xiaoya, so she could only stand and watch Huo Xiaoya go home with the coffins of Xu and Huo Xiao.
When passing in front of her, Huo Xiaoya paused and looked at her with tears in her eyes, "Qingqing, Master Hou, forgive me for neglecting you..."
After that, he helped Xu to go together.
Pei Qingqing couldn't open her mouth.
It's all at this time, and what do you say about being slacking off or not.
Pei Qingqing knew that Huo Xiaoya must be very sad, but she still had to endure her sadness and comfort her mother.
As a child, Huo Xiaoya is much more filial than her, and she doesn't even have the opportunity to be filial to her mother for a day.
Pei Qingqing's heart was full of sourness.
Bai Zimo took her by the hand and followed behind the Fuling team, and said in a low voice, "Let's go and see General Huo off." ”
After all, Huo Xiao's funeral, they should also go to the pillar incense.
Everyone was immersed in sadness and grief, but Bai Zimo did not forget that Huo Xiao's coffin returned to Beijing, which meant that Emperor Qiandi would come.
It is reasonable to be reasonable, Huo Xiao sacrificed his life for the country, and Emperor Qiandi should come to see it.
In other words, head-to-head confrontation is indispensable.
"Master Hou, have you found the murderer who assassinated General Huo?" At the back of the crowd, Pei Qingqing sighed and choked up.
She knew that Bai Zimo would definitely go to investigate.
Huo Xiao's death is unknown, who is the killer of Huo Xiao?
Who is in the best interest of such murder?
Pei Qingqing said suspiciously.
Who knows, Bai Zimo shook his head, saying that he hadn't found any news yet.
He asked Jiuyue to investigate, but he hadn't found anything yet.
I am afraid that Huo Xiao's death will involve a wide range of people.
It's not that Pei Qingqing hasn't been to General Huo's Mansion before, but this time, even the threshold is desolate.
There are white cloths hanging everywhere, and the mourning hall is arranged inside, and when Pei Qingqing and Bai Zimo arrived, Huo Xiao's coffin was already placed in the center of the mourning hall.
Huo Xiaoya and Xu were already wearing linen and filial piety, kneeling next to the coffin and burning the paper.
The people of the Huo family all knelt in the mourning hall and cried.
Soon, people began to come to mourn Huo Xiao...
"Your Majesty has arrived!"
At this time, a standard eunuch voice came from the door, reminding everyone that His Majesty was coming.
Then, under the hugs of the front and back, Emperor Qian came into the door.
This time, it was not the minions who followed Emperor Qian, but a group of courtiers.
Obviously, they all followed Emperor Qian to mourn Huo Xiao.
Emperor Qiandi is here, no matter how sad he is, the courtesy of the monarch and the ministers he should have is indispensable.
So the Xu family, with Huo Xiaoya's support, stood up and saluted Emperor Qian, "The courtiers knock to see Your Majesty..."
"Hurry up and excuse me. Emperor Qian also regretted with a face, "General Huo fought for the country and unfortunately died. ”
Emperor Qian's regret at this moment may be somewhat sincere.
After all, Huo Xiao is his loyal and good general, and Huo Xiao's death is also his loss.
Therefore, at this time, Emperor Qiandi specially rushed to comfort people's hearts to show his benevolence.
Emperor Qian's condolences had no effect on the Xu family at all, but the Xu family still had to be grateful, "Thank you Your Majesty for your care, the general fought for the country, and he was also benevolent..."
