Chapter 161: The Fiancé
In front of the Lin Mansion, tonight is particularly lively. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After Emperor Yuan's envoy left, there was another sound of horses' hooves on the long street, breaking the silence and cold night.
There were seven or eight people in the group.
These people arrived in front of the Lin Mansion and dismounted with the reins.
The leading person turned his head and signaled, and a person walked up from behind, and pulled the knocker of the Lin Mansion: "Open the door!" Open the door! ”
The concierge of the Lin Mansion kept opening the door this night, and finally lay down and was woken up again.
The two men got up sleepily and pulled the latch down, "Who is it?" That's it! The two agreed, slowly pulling the door open.
The people outside the door couldn't wait, and pushed the door open hard, knocking the two gatekeepers on their backs.
"Hey...... Who are you? You ......, "Lin Wenyu, the secretary of the military department, is high and powerful, which one is not polite and polite?" But no one has ever dared to break blindly.
"This is our Second Highness! Why don't you go to the ceremony? ”
It turned out that it was Chu Zhaohui standing outside the door.
He wore a deerskin hat on his head, a fox scarf around his neck, and most of his face was covered, and the porter of the Lin Mansion didn't see his face clearly at all.
"I heard that the concubine who didn't pass through the door passed away, and after the master found out, he came to see her off in person. Lead the way to the mourning hall! Chu Zhaohui said, and without waiting for the subordinates of the Lin Mansion to lead the way, he looked around, followed the white lantern on the road, and walked directly inside.
"Second Highness, the slave greets Second Highness." When the housekeeper of the Lin Mansion heard the news, he stopped Chu Zhaohui on the road. He didn't even have time to fully button his clothes, so he ran out to greet him, and when he saw people, he didn't care about the cold on the ground, and knelt down to say goodbye.
"Lead the way, go to the mourning hall!" Chu Zhaohui didn't talk nonsense, he didn't wait for the housekeeper to stand up, and left with his feet raised.
"Your Royal Highness, because our girl died of an epidemic, the saint decreed that the girl's coffin should be transported out of the city overnight. Our master has just personally taken people to transport the coffin out of the house. The butler trotted behind to catch up with Chu Zhaohui and explained softly.
"What? Already shipped out of town? Chu Zhaohui stopped suddenly, and the housekeeper almost bumped into it, so he quickly got out of the way, almost flashing his old waist.
Fortunately, although he is old, his hands and feet are still flexible, and if he collides, his little life will be over.
The housekeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead, secretly rejoicing, and when he heard the question, he hurriedly said, "Yes, the master personally transported it out of the city, and our lady was too sad and fainted." ”
To put it simply, now that there is no master in the Lin Mansion who can entertain you, and the girl's mourning hall is empty, you better go.
Chu Zhaohui had already broken into the gate of the mourning hall at this time, and when he heard the housekeeper's words, he raised his foot angrily and kicked it away.
Chu Zhaoye, who was waiting for Lin Wenyu to come back in the mourning hall, heard that someone said that the second prince Chu Zhaohui was here.
He walked out of the mourning hall and walked out slowly. Seeing that Chu Zhaohui was about to kick the housekeeper, he asked out loud: "Second brother, why did this slave provoke you?" ”
When Chu Zhaohui heard Chu Zhaoye's voice, he calmed down a little, "The third brother is so fast." Lin Yirou passed away, my fiancé doesn't know, why do you know about the third brother? ”
"Second brother, it's cold outside the house, why don't we come in and talk." Chu Zhaoye didn't reply, persuaded him, turned to the side, and let Chu Zhaohui go.
Chu Zhaohui rode over for a long time, but he felt cold and didn't think much about it. When he entered the courtyard and saw the mourning hall, he remembered that this was the mourning hall, and he was angry in his heart, but it was difficult to retreat.
"It's okay, you can step down." Chu Zhaoye said to Steward Lin again.
The steward of the Lin Mansion was pardoned, "Yes, two highnesses, the servants have retired." He bowed, not daring to lift his head, and withdrew from the courtyard.
Anyway, with the three highnesses here, there should be nothing wrong with me as a housekeeper.
The guards and subordinates brought by Chu Zhaohui did not dare to stay away, and the example of the assassination of His Royal Highness Chu Zhaoyu now, who dares to take it lightly now?
Therefore they also followed the gate and kept watch in the courtyard.
Lin Yirou is an unmarried woman in the end, and it is really inappropriate for so many men to enter the mourning hall. However, these are His Royal Highnesses, who dares to stop them? The housekeeper looked around, and Mrs. Lin didn't know about it
"My cousin is suffering from an epidemic, and my father is afraid of infection, so I asked me to come over to comfort one or two, let my uncle mourn, and send my cousin's body out of the city to be cremated. Second brother, you are late, my cousin Quanxia has knowledge, if you know that the second brother will come to see her off in person, I must be very happy. ”
Chu Zhaoye said slowly while leading Chu Zhaohui into the mourning hall.
When he said this, he explained that he knew that Lin Yirou had died, and it was not the Lin Mansion that informed him, but Emperor Yuan who informed him. And he will be here, it is also the will of their father.
When he spoke, his tone was heavy, and outside the words, it seemed that Lin Yirou really had a deep affection for Chu Zhaohui and was unforgettable, and now Chu Zhaohui can come to the mourning hall to comfort Lin Yirou's soul.
Chu Zhaohui was blocked by Chu Zhaoye's words, only to feel that he was punched in the chest, and he was so suffocated.
"Since she's so happy, can't she wait for me to come and see her? Lin Shangshu is too ignorant of his beloved daughter's heart. Chu Zhaohui replied sarcastically.
When he heard the news that Lin Yirou had hanged herself, he only felt that he had been slapped by the Lin family, which made him angry.
Marrying Lin Yirou as a side concubine, he was already wronged enough.
This Lin Yirou will not die sooner or later, and she actually chose to die the day before entering the door, is this because she thinks that the jokes at her palace banquet are not enough, and she still wants to add a sum to herself?
He didn't know about it tonight, but Chu Zhaoyu suddenly came to visit and told him about it.
He was furious, left Chu Zhaoyu in the mansion, and rushed over with someone.
He hurried to the Lin Mansion, intending to see Lin Yirou's body with his own eyes.
If he really hanged himself, then the Lin family would not be able to escape the charge of resisting the decree to the death, and if they dared to respond to him, he would let their family shed their skin without dying.
Unexpectedly, he was still one step slower, and the Lin family's body was transported out of the city for cremation without overnight.
"My uncle is a strict father, and my daughter's thoughts are the most difficult to guess. What's more, my uncle is my father, and my cousin is in a hurry. Chu Zhaoye still said unhurriedly.
The two talked and entered the mourning hall, Chu Zhaoye picked up the incense on the offering table and handed it to Chu Zhaohui, "Second brother, although my cousin's coffin has been transported out of the city, however, the mourning hall is still there, if you want to incense, it's still okay." ”
"Humph!" Chu Zhaohui couldn't help it anymore, and flicked his sleeves directly, "Let me incense?" I'm just afraid that her yang life will be exhausted, and she will break her yin life again. ”
"Speaking of which, it's still the third brother, you have a deep affection. The bodies of the people have been transported out, and you are still here to watch her spirit. ”
"She was my cousin, they were all relatives, and she died suddenly, which is embarrassing. Besides, I'm still waiting for my uncle to come back and make sure that everything is okay, so that I can pay tribute to my father tomorrow." ”
Chu Zhaohui's words couldn't stab Chu Zhaoye at all, but it was Chu Zhaoye's words that made him angry again. (To be continued.) )
