【Chapter 012】 Condolence

This day is probably the earliest day for Yuxi to get up.

Last night, the fourth lady of her family couldn't sleep for no reason, muttering something in her mouth, as if she was in the middle of an evil spirit, which made her unable to sleep peacefully, and then she boiled soothing tea in the middle of the night, and Shen Youqing finally fell asleep after a while......

Yuxi yawned and walked into Shen Youqing's room.

Shen Youqing sat on the bed, her eyes were dull, and she only looked ahead, but she startled Yuxi.

"Miss, are you awake?"

"Wake up earlier than you."

“……”

Yuxi suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness, originally she was still worried about Miss last night's "evil spirit", but at this moment, seeing her pretending to be innocent, she felt that those worries were really superfluous.

"Brew me some more soothing tea." Shen Youqing commanded.

Yuxi hummed casually, looked at the door, and walked out......

Shen Youqing finished washing up and quietly ate some breakfast, but she was wondering where Yuxi had gone.

"Miss, have you eaten?"

Saying that Cao Cao Cao arrived, Shen Youqing looked back at her and smiled: "What about the tranquilizing tea?" ”

Yuxi was stunned, why was she still worried about the soothing tea, she just put some incense ash in the tea, and the incense ash was still the one that Shen Youqing gave her......

"I'll talk about the soothing tea later." Yuxi brought her a cloak, "I went out just now because the maid next to Madame came to call me, Miss, we are going to go to the Yong'an County Mansion with Madame today to mourn the little prince." ”

Hearing this, Shen Youqing's eyes sank, took the cloak in her hand, and asked tremblingly, "Xiao Shizi hasn't been buried yet?" ”

"I heard that it was the prince of the county who was anxious and wanted to accompany the little prince more, so he set up a mourning hall in the county prince's mansion."

Yuxi looked down at Shen Youqing's feet and asked, "Miss, are your feet okay?" ”

Shen Youqing didn't seem to hear her words, sighed lightly, and walked out of the room, "Let's go." ”

"Miss, your cloak—"

"Don't do it!"

Yuxi didn't dare to listen to Shen Youqing's words, if she was cold, wouldn't she toss her even more, picked up the cloak and ran out......

Yong'an County Mansion is located in Dongcheng, Yong'an County King was crowned Prince when he was young, only because he had a dislike with the emperor a few years ago, he was demoted to the county king, and the whole family was also punished to the desolate place in the northwest.

Shen Youqing learned about these from Mama An, although Pei sat next to her, there were very few words between the two, but fortunately, Mama An and Yuxi mediated from time to time, and the atmosphere eased a little.

"Are your feet better?"

The carriage stopped, and when she got out of the carriage, Pei Shi turned to look at her and asked softly.

Shen Youqing shook her head busily, and waited until Pei Shi and Mama An got out of the car, and then she was helped down by Yuxi......

The place of Yong'an County is not big, and the two white lanterns in front of the door are very conspicuous, so white that they are dazzling, and mourning faintly comes out of the high wall.

"Miss, what's wrong?"

Yuxi wanted to follow her wife, but she saw Shen Youqing froze in place, looking at the lantern motionlessly, for some reason, she only felt that her eyes were very sad and unbearable......

Shen Youqing was excited, and walked into the county king's mansion with his feet up.

The mourning hall of Xiao Shizi is in the small ancestral hall in the southeast corner, and the mourning flags are swaggering in front of you, which makes people feel chilled.

A young woman stood outside the mourning hall, her face sad and her body extremely thin, as if she were about to fall when the wind blew; Xu didn't close her eyes for a long time, her face was pale, her face was haggard, her eyes were sloppy looking at the coffin, and tears were falling......

Pei Shi stepped forward and supported her, comforting her something.

Shen Youqing looked around, and the pear blossoms fell one after another, sprinkled in front of the hall, and suddenly felt a kind of desolation.

Several times when she saw the small coffin, she wanted to escape, but there seemed to be some power to make her unable to get out, urging her to enter the mourning hall.

Shen Youqing walked into the mourning hall, there was a coffin in the center, it had been a few days, but the coffin had not been covered, and he could vaguely smell a faint fragrance coming out of it, probably sprinkled with incense powder.

The little man who was alive and kicking a few days ago was lying here in the blink of an eye......

"Xiao Shizi, we should have played with you more at that time......"

"When you get there, you have to be obedient......"

"It's better not to be too well-behaved, too well-behaved and easy to be bullied......"

Shen Youqing muttered to herself, but a deep voice suddenly came from her ears: "Can you hear it?" ”

Shen Youqing raised her head in amazement, facing a pair of dark eyes, with inquiry and scrutiny, she subconsciously took a step back, even though she was far enough away......

Here, Shen Youqing was still in a daze, but over there, a young man was looking at her with a pair of shrewd eyes, and couldn't help but wonder: What was the girl talking to herself?

"Who is that, you are Shen Youqing's maid, right?"

Yuxi, who happened to pass by, paused for a moment, and in a blink of an eye saw someone who was impolite to her, but she still had to salute respectfully: "Lord Shizi, what do you command?" ”

Xiao Lang pointed to the girl standing in front of the coffin, then pointed to his head, and said, "There is nothing wrong with your fourth young lady here, right?" ”

Yuxi walked towards Shen Youqing.

"Miss, ...... you" She looked at Shen Youqing without saying anything, not knowing what to say, she had noticed her unusual appearance just now.

"Miss Shen Si, isn't it evil?"

Looking at Shen Youqing's stupid expression, Xiao Lang really couldn't bear it, and walked over, taking care of his little cousin, and didn't make much movement.

Yuxi glanced at Xiao Lang in surprise, very dissatisfied in her heart, her young lady is a lot weaker today, but not just anyone can come to make fun of her, but she doesn't dare to say anything, she can only complain infinitely in her heart about this annoying prince......

"Shen Youqing, I'll talk to you."

Seeing that Shen Youqing didn't reply, his face was a little worried.

"This is the mourning hall of the little prince, and the cousin of the prince is watching you." Shen Youqing glanced at him lightly, and then turned around, but the figure of the person just now was gone, and he was speechless for a while.

Being said by Shen Youqing, Xiao Lang suddenly felt a chill down his spine, although he didn't like this sick little cousin, but he was dead, no matter how much he was a bastard, he wouldn't do anything in front of the little cousin's spirit.

After a moment, he walked away.

Yuxi approached Shen Youqing, grabbed her sleeve tremblingly, and her voice was nervous: "Little, Miss, it won't really ...... Yes, there are ghosts. ”

"Be quiet!" Shen Youqing reprimanded, and Yuxi was immediately silent, but there was a numb feeling from her back, and she immediately walked out of the mourning hall......

stayed in the palace of Yongan County for a long time, and it was not until the evening that the group left for the group.

In the carriage, Pei Shi looked at Shen Youqing, whose eyes were red, and couldn't help but feel distressed, and wanted to say a few words of comfort, but when he saw his daughter curled up in the corner defensively, she couldn't speak after all, so she ordered Mama An to bring a blanket to cover her body.

Feeling Pei's movements, Shen Youqing, whose eyes were slightly closed, moved, and Pei's concerned gaze came over, with a hint of caution.

That's probably how she gets along with her mother......

"I just met Xiao Shizi a few days ago, and he was always playing with us at that time." Shen Youqing leaned against the corner and spoke quietly, regardless of whether someone answered.

"If I had stayed in the General's Mansion to play with him, he wouldn't have left so early, maybe he wouldn't have met bandits, and he wouldn't have died......"

Listening to this, Pei Shi felt that something was wrong, so he scolded lightly: "Don't talk nonsense, life and death are determined by heaven, where can you control it?" Yuxi, the young lady is tired, tell the groom to hurry up and go back quickly. ”

Shen Youqing grabbed Pei's hand and looked downcast, "My brother is also this age, isn't he?" ”

Pei's face instantly turned cold, she understood what her daughter meant, it was an eternal pain in her heart, and she didn't allow anyone to mention it......

"When my brother died, it was also Xiao Shizi's age, at that time, what if—"

"Shut up!"

Pei Shi shouted, and with a crisp slap, she was stunned.

A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Youqing's eyes, and she smiled faintly: "It's the daughter who is not good, and the mother is angry." Yuxi, tell the groom to stop. ”

It wasn't until she got out of the car that Pei Shi reacted, looked at the hand frozen in mid-air, and said, "What did I do......"

"Yuxi, follow Miss."

Hearing Mama An's order, Yuxi, who had been petrified, immediately got out of the car and hurried to chase Shen Youqing.
