Chapter 15: The Funeral
Su Zhen immediately understood that he had almost lost his temper, and hurriedly changed the corners of his mouth from hooking upwards to bending downwards, sighed, his eyes turned red at the right time, and he choked up: "Not only me, but also Madame." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The husband and wife glanced at each other, and everything was in their eyes.
At this time, the maid who had just been sent by Qiao's to see Su Yutong came back and said, "Back to the old lady, the third lady is crying so much now, the grandmothers can't persuade it, or the old lady will go and have a look." ”
When Su Zhen heard this, he frowned a little at first, and then became happy again.
No one doubts the appearance of his own daughter.
Thinking about it, I saw Qiao Shi stand up first, his face was worried, his feet stumbled a little, and said, "Let's go, go and see." ”
Su Zhen hurriedly supported his wife in front of the maid, and walked towards Su Yutong's room in both directions.
Before I got out of the house, someone came to report: "Master, Mrs., the Prince's Mansion, the Second Prince, the Third Prince, the Fourth Prince, the Qi Palace, the Dingbei Prince, the Heroic Lie, and the Diligent Princess's family have all sent people to come, just in front, and the adults of the three provinces and six departments are also here, and General Qu of the Jingcheng Wei personally brought people to pay tribute to the late marquis, and the fourth master was busy in front, so he specially sent a villain to tell the lord to go quickly." ”
In the words, there was some resentment.
This servant is also a slave of the Su family, and he is usually Su Zhen's henchman. My lord has been busy for so many days for the affairs of the Hou Ye, and today he has not closed his eyes for three days, so it is easy to come in and rest for a while, so he let the fourth master take care of it in front first, but the fourth master still almost got out of the moth, so he had to ask his master to go out first.
Qiao Shi couldn't hear the dissatisfaction in the servant's tone, but he didn't break it, but said to Su Zhen with a sincere face: "Master, go to the front first, I'll go see the three girls." ”
Su Zhen nodded, he didn't look like he hadn't closed his eyes for three nights in a row, he just said, "Madame, don't persuade some three girls." ”
With that, he hurriedly walked towards the mourning hall.
Qiao Shi watched her husband leave, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, although she was sad on her face, she was afraid that she was even happier than Su Zhen.
After today, she will be the real hostess of this great marquis mansion!
When it was time for the funeral, the four masters of the Su family and their families all arrived at the mourning hall.
Jin Fu, the eunuch of Emperor Zhaoming's side, took the lead in crying after giving incense to Su Shu's tablet for Emperor Zhaoming, and then read the eulogy written by Emperor Zhaoming.
Among them, Su Ci, who is ranked third, is a bearded man, who was born in the army like his eldest brother, and once served as an official under Su Shu's account, he has a bold and reckless temperament, he cries when he wants to cry, and laughs when he wants to laugh, so at this moment he is kneeling there and crying the loudest;
Su Nian, who is in line four, has been relying on his brothers to live, and his personality is the most cowardly, at this moment he thinks that his eldest brother is gone, and he doesn't know how he will live in the future, so he cries that his eldest brother died young, and at the same time cries that his future is hopeless;
Su Huai, who is in line five, is a concubine, and now he is kneeling at the end of several brothers, thinking of Su Shu's usual behavior, he also lowered his head and cried heavily.
Among these people, Su Zhen, who was described as withered, cried the most, and almost fainted from crying several times.
And Meng's two brothers, Su Yuzhu's eldest uncle Meng Langkun and younger uncle Meng Langzhong, and Meng Langkun's second son Meng Xiuming are by Su Zhen's side, not Su Zhen cried so dead and alive, but he also burst into tears, especially Meng Langkun's body is not very good, I heard that after the accident of his sister's family, he was seriously ill, and at this time he could only stand on crutches and rely on his younger brother and son to support him.
Meng's boudoir is famous, although the Meng family has not been prosperous in the past dynasties, but there are few women. In the past, Meng Mei was the only girl in the Meng family for three generations.
Yes, Meng Mei is a person who grew up in the palm of the Meng family.
Now heaven and man are separated forever.
As soon as Meng Langkun thought of this, he felt a cramp in his heart, and his tears were still in his eyes, crying: "It's gone, it's gone......"
Meng Langzhong felt sorry for his sister and worried about his eldest brother, and when he heard Meng Langkun say this, he couldn't help crying.
And Meng Xiuming on the side was supporting his father and uncle, he had a soft temperament, so he stood there, hanging his head and crying silently.
The servants and maids all wore filial piety clothes, and some of the old slaves couldn't hold back their crying.
Although Su Zhen cried sincerely, he was very sober in his heart, and just silently wrote down who cried the most.
When the time comes, these people will have to be slowly removed.
Outside the mourning hall, Su Shu's former comrades, the generals who were born and died together, and some later students, thinking of Su Shu's usual behavior, also had red eyes.
Especially Qu Enshan, with a hundred guards from the capital, with a white scarf tied to their heads, stood outside Su Shu's mourning hall, standing in two rows, until they stood outside the gate.
This is also the will of Emperor Zhaoming.
And at this moment, Shangguan Zizhan was also at the end of the capital guard, wearing filial piety clothes outside the armor, and looked up at the plaque on the Su Mansion.
The three words of Boyang Hou in block letters reveal ancient meaning.
Shangguan Zizhan heard the master talk about this very legendary Hou Ye, but after all, he didn't feel it deeply. But now seeing the people around him like this, he reminded him of the master who passed away not long ago, and his heart was also painful, so he lowered his head and wept silently.
The huge old mansion of Su Mansion is really gloomy at the moment.
In the mourning hall, Su Zhen, who gradually calmed down his emotions, walked over with the help of his family, and said to Meng Langkun: "Brother Meng must mourn ......" said words that made people mourn, but he cried first.
How did the brothers of the Meng family know that Su Zhen was kind in his heart, and now when he saw him like this, he came over to comfort Su Zhen first.
When the time was almost up, the monks also recited the mantra of death, and the Su family brothers personally carried the coffin, followed by the Meng brothers and Meng Xiuming, and walked towards the ancestral tomb of the Su family.
On the streets, the officials of the road festival, the people of the capital, and the overseas businessmen who came and went were all watching this mighty procession.
And just as the funeral procession was about to leave the city, a rapid sound of horses' hooves was heard chasing after them from behind, accompanied by the cry of a woman.
"Daddy! Mother! It's my daughter who is late! ”
Before everyone could react, a woman on a pony galloped from the south of the city and stopped the funeral procession.
I saw that the woman fell off the horse, got up, stumbled, and rushed to the coffin of the Marquis of Boyang and his wife crying, holding the coffin and crying: "Dad! Mother! Why don't you wait for your daughter! You're just leaving, so what can your daughter do in the future! ”
Everyone was still in shock, looking at each other, and even Su Zhen, who claimed to be calm, almost threw the coffin on the ground.
Su Yuzhu...... Su Yuzhu is still alive?!
