On both sides of the palace gate, the green locust trees are side by side, and the guards stand with leopard tail guns, with cold faces.

The official road extends for hundreds of meters, and then is divided into two ends, on one side is the noisy and lively East Market, buying and selling, so it is not complicated. On one side, there are high-gate mansions everywhere, peach horns and cornices, and most of them are the residences of the ministers, and the environment is quiet. Just around the corner along Huating Street, you can see a vermilion door plaque with the word "Song Mansion" written on it.

In the main hall of the inner hall, Song Qixiang is sitting on the head, and everyone in the hall is holding their breath and bowing their heads, and the room is quiet.

"Yes...... When was this? Song Qixiang was silent for a long time before he asked.

Song Boyan raised his eyes and said slightly, "Today's six hundred miles of expedited excerpts, presumably ...... It was the day before yesterday or so. ”

fell into a condensation again, no one spoke, Xu was an unexpected shock, Xu was a complicated mood after the shock.

Half-loud, the old but strong voice came out again, and Song Qixiang sighed softly, "What about the girl?" ”

Knowing who his grandfather was talking about, Song Boyan responded, "The note presented was written by Jing Ning, and I think it should be prepared to bring ...... Take your uncle back to Beijing for funeral and burial, just wait for the reply prepared by His Royal Highness on behalf of His Majesty, and he will probably come to Beijing. ”

Song Haiqing had mixed feelings in his heart, the Song family unanimously opposed the marriage between Xue Yi and Haixin back then, but he was the only one who always agreed. On the night Haixin eloped away, he was aware of it, but he deliberately pretended not to know, and let Haixin escape from the house over the courtyard wall.

Until today, many years after Haixin's death, he is still puzzled about whether what he did back then was right or wrong. If it hadn't been stopped at the beginning, there would not have been such a tragedy as it is today.

But I never regretted the decision made at that moment.

It is probably difficult for the people on the side to understand what kind of temptation is in that heavy love, which makes a boudoir lady willing to abandon her family and wander the world.

The **** where Haixin went was also there, and he saw Xue Yi holding her body and howling and crying for a long time, completely ignoring the image and decency that a second-grade county prince should have in front of so many people. Dozens of gray hairs grew in the black hair overnight, and a puddle of coughing up blood was really shocking.

He thought that if it weren't for Gu Nian's stupid daughter, maybe Xue Yi would have gone directly with his sister more than ten years ago.

My father did not have a deep relationship with the Xue family, and since Haixin's death, in addition to occasionally greeting Jingning's condition, he has not been in contact with the Xue family, which is no secret in the community. It's just that if his father really hated Xue Yi to the core, he wouldn't be so silent now.

For a long time, he also sighed, "Jingning, this child is aggrieved and miserable, he has been hindered since he was a child, and he has no mother. Now, although I am glad to have regained my sanity, but I have suffered the pain of losing my father, how lonely should I be now. ”

"What nonsense!" Song Qixiang suddenly shouted angrily, "When our Song family is dead!" I want to see if I, Song Qixiang, dare to bully my granddaughter! ”

Although he was old, his majesty had not diminished at all, and in just a few words, his voice was so loud that even the servants waiting outside the house couldn't help but stand up straight and be in awe.

"Yes."

Song Qixiang stood up, his back straight, "Bo Yan." ”

"What did grandfather command?"

"Send someone to sort out the yard where your aunt lived before her death, and Jingning will live there in the future, and ask your subordinates to be sure to serve me well."

Song Boyan nodded, "Grandson knows." ”

…

Pingcheng Xue Mansion is a plain place, with white cloth flags waving everywhere, and the simple house looks more and more silent.

Jing Ning was dressed in plain clothes, and her waist-length hair was tied up with only a white headband. The ash box in his hand contained Xue Yi's cremated ashes, raised his hands and placed them on the high desk in front of him, and then bowed down silently.

The more than 20 people standing behind him also knelt down lightly and solemnly bowed three times. When I stood up again, my eyes were somewhat red.

They are all members of the Xue family who have followed Xue Yi for many years, as well as officialdom colleagues who know each other well in Pingcheng. On weekdays, I know that he is weak, but he does not often show weakness in front of people, and this sudden death is still a little stunned.

After the incense was sealed in the ash box, everyone regretfully left a few words of relief and slowly left. Xue An stepped forward and asked, "Miss, the approval from Kyoto has come down, when does Miss plan to go to Beijing, I can also go and prepare." ”

"No need, Uncle An." Jing Ning faintly, "I went to Huai'an this time to take him back to his old hometown to be buried with my mother in accordance with my father's wishes, and asked His Majesty to confer on me the title, and I didn't have to wait for a long time, so I didn't need to make any preparations." ”

The sleeves of the wide robe hung down in front of him, Jing Ning's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he walked to the doorrail, his elegant back was Xiao Ran Yuli, "I'll just bring Tingbai when I go out this time, it's convenient to dress lightly." It's just that in this mansion, Uncle An will have to trouble more these days. ”

"It should be, it should be." Xue An's voice was slightly hoarse, "Miss don't worry, don't worry about Pingcheng here." ”

"I'll go out and I'll leave when I get back."

"Yes." I don't know why, Xue An's uneasiness began to slowly disappear a few days ago, such a young lady with such a clear posture and outstanding posture looked at her in vain with an indescribable power, a little bit like a lady back then.

…

The sky was clear, but there was still no warm sun, and the ground was covered with a thin layer of snow, and you could clearly see one footprint after another when you stepped on it.

Jing Ning politely knocked the copper handle on the door, and a servant inside dropped the bolt and poked his head out, and when he saw the people outside, he couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly opened the door on one side, and called politely, "The girl is here." ”

"Old gentleman is here?" ”

"Yes, the girl hasn't been here for many days, and the old gentleman is still thinking about it." The servant noticed that she was dressed in white, and was a little curious but didn't dare to ask more, so he made a gesture of invitation, "The girl comes with me." ”

After passing through the inner hall, walking straight from the garden path, passing through a hanging flower door, you can vaguely see the shadow of a bent down inscription.

"Old gentleman."

"Ning girl is here." With the last stroke of the ink happily, he raised his head to see her outfit, gradually collected the smile in his eyes, and waved his hand to the servant behind her, "Go and make two cups of tea." ”

The servants respectfully retreated, only the two of them were left in the courtyard, and Mrs. Liang stopped writing, rolled up some scattered rice paper on the stone table, and put it away.

"Sit, I'm afraid I'm not here to talk to my old man about the past and the present today."

Jing Ning waved his hand, "Old gentleman is keen, I ...... today." It's a temporary goodbye to the old gentleman. ”

Taishi Liang frowned, his eyes blazing, "But what happened?" ”

“…… My father passed away a few days ago, and I will take him back to my hometown for burial after I say goodbye to my old husband. Jing Ning lowered his eyes and muttered for a moment, "Even if I come back, I'm afraid there will be a lot of affairs, and I shouldn't be able to come to visit the old gentleman for a while." So, here's a break. ”

When Taishi Liang heard this, his heart sank, although he had just expected it, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed when he heard such a thing.

"Yes...... Where to go? ”

"Huai'an City, the road is not very far."

"Huai'an?" Taishi Liang pondered, "I heard that Governor Xue also died recently, and his daughter was going to take him back to Huai'an for burial, so ...... coincidence?"

Jing Ning smiled bitterly, "I never told the old gentleman, Xue Yi...... It's my father. ”
