"Grandpa......" I couldn't help but mourn in my heart, I clenched the old man's hand, and finally cried bitterly, "Grandpa...... Grandpa......"

"Young lady's ......Day mourning," Yun Xiu said with tears in his eyes, "Master Hou is a happy mourning, you should send him on the road, you still have to preside over the aftermath, you can't hurt your body......"

"Sister, Uncle Xiu is right, Master Hou has a lot to do this time, you are the head of the Yun family, everyone is looking at you......" Stygian Flame whispered beside him. I looked up at the old man's serene face, and there seemed to be a reassuring smile on the corner of my lips. With a sour heart, I reached out to wipe the tears on my face, yes, I can't let the old man go uneasy, I want him to know that I can support the Yun family, and I can take care of Nuo'er.

Letting go of the old man's hand, I stood up and turned to look at everyone in the room: "Report the news of grandpa's death to the imperial court, and then arrange for someone to report the funeral to the sons and nephews scattered all over the second room and the Yun family." Uncle Xiu, you arrange for someone to clean up your grandfather. Yunde, let Yunyi arrange the moving shop and decorate the mourning hall, and you can take care of the coffin and the old man's personal supplies. Yuanxi ...... "I just had time to glance at An Yuanxi, and his face also had a look of sadness. An Yuanxi, it should be really sad, right? Although it only took him two years to return to Yunfu, the old man really felt sorry for him. A person who truly loves himself is gone forever, who wouldn't be sad? I turned my face with tears in my eyes: "Uncle is going to help the soul return home." ”

The old man will not be buried in the capital, his coffin will be transported back to Cangdu and buried in the ancestral tomb of the Yun family, which is also the old man's wish. However, according to the routine, a mourning hall will be arranged in the Marquis Mansion in the capital, and the funeral will be given to the court officials, and then the soul will be helped to return to his hometown, go out of the funeral, and enter the earth. As an old man, from the six veins to the burial in the mausoleum, there are many complicated procedures, and the journey will drag on for a long time, and there are more things to prepare for Fuling to return to his hometown, such a long distance, just the embalming measures of the corpse are a headache, but fortunately, the old man's coffin does not have to worry about this problem. The ancients attached great importance to the burial after their deaths, and people with a little conditions chose a good feng shui treasure land as early as possible when they were alive, built a good longevity domain, prepared longevity materials, and the emperor would even take his own coffin with him when he went out to parade, and there was no taboo for coffins in modern people at all. Although the Yun family is not so exaggerated, if the old man wants to live in one place for a long time, his longevity materials will also be transported to the place of residence later. Now in the east wing of the old man's courtyard, there is his huge longevity. The specifications are according to the rank of the prince, and it is worth mentioning that the inner wall of the coffin is embedded with a whole piece of thousand-year-old cold jade, which can protect the body from decay.

The mourning hall is located in the hall, according to the ancient rites, when the old man is critically ill, he will move to the hall, and take the meaning of the end of his life, but the old man is going to go silently at night, so he has to move now. I feel sad when I think of this, the old man has worked hard all his life, and there is no one who will die in bed. Yunde quickly divided the work among the people, everyone began to be busy in and out, there seemed to be a lot of things to do, but there was nothing that I needed to do with my own hands, most of the time, I was staying in the mourning hall, looking at the old man who was covered under the quilt of heaven and earth in front of me, staring at the swaying lantern under his feet, thinking about how the Yun family should go in the future.

Just as the old man expected, as soon as he leaves, the Yun family will be in chaos. The men and women in the second room all poured over, how much truth was there under the sad appearance? How much fake? The ladies of Zeyun Mansion cried as if their father had died, but who knows, they are not secretly happy in their hearts? I was so annoyed by their cries that I couldn't bear to stand up and go outside the mourning hall to breathe, and behind me came the gossip of the ladies who lowered their voices.

"Look at her, the Hou Ye didn't even shed a single tear when he turned around, she was really like a stone, disloyal and unfilial......"

"What does my sister know, as soon as Master Hou leaves, she will really be in charge, how can she be as sad as us? I don't know how happy I am......"

"This kind of unfilial and unfaithful woman is also worthy of being in charge......"

...... "Sister ......" Xiaohong, who was following closely behind me, heard those gossip and changed her face, thinking that she was afraid that I would be angry, and looked at me nervously. I sneered, ignored the three aunts and six wives, and stepped out of the room. I'm afraid that the second room deliberately wants to make some trouble in the mourning hall, how could I turn my face for these few bad things, so that the old man will be laughed at as soon as he leaves.

I walked to the place where I carried people in the yard and exhaled a long breath, feeling that my headache had eased somewhat. Suddenly, I heard someone talking in front of me, and when I looked up, I saw Yun De saying to Zi'er: "Have you looked for it?" ”

"I've been looking everywhere." Zi'er said timidly, "Jin'er also asked other people, and said that they hadn't seen it." ”

"Look for it again, how can such a big thing disappear if it is not seen?" Yunde said solemnly.

I walked over, and when the two saw me, they hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Young lady! ”

"What's wrong?" I asked softly. Yun De hurriedly said: "Young lady, I asked them to pack up Hou Ye's things, Zi'er said that Hou Ye's bunch of bamboo purple clay pot is missing." ”

"Oh?" I looked at Zi'er. Zi'er knelt on the ground in fear: "I'm sorry young lady, it's Zi'er who doesn't take care of it." "Zi'er and Jin'er are the little servants who serve tea for the old man, usually he keeps the tea set, Jin'er keeps the tea, and suddenly disappears such a valuable thing, he must be afraid of being scolded, but at this moment, where do I have the mood to blame him.

"Get up." I said lightly, "Look for it again, if you left it in place when you were moving things." ”

"Don't go yet." Yunde reprimanded in a low voice, Zi'er turned white, got up and hurried away. I sighed and said, "Yunde, Zi'er they haven't gone through this kind of thing, some mistakes are inevitable, if you really can't find it, don't be too embarrassed for him." ”

Yun De glanced at me and said, "Don't worry, young lady, I will take care of it." I nodded, turned around and wanted to leave, when I saw Yun Yi rushing over: "Young lady, there is a holy decree coming." ”

"Oh?" I nodded, "Inform the Second Young Master and the people from Zeyun Mansion to go out to receive the order together." ”

The holy decree expressed the emperor's grief over the death of the old man with great grief, and vigorously praised the old man's contribution to the imperial court. The prince Yunnuo immediately inherited the marquis, and after the expiration of the Ding Wei period, a canonization ceremony was held, and the name of the golden book was recorded and the royal treasure was given. The second son, Yunqi, was a scholar in the Hanlin Academy, and he went to work immediately after the expiration of Ding Wei's term.

I bit my lip and listened to Shuangxi recite the lengthy decree, my heart full of mixed feelings. The emperor actually appointed An Yuanxi as a waiter in the Hanlin Academy, although it was only an official rank from the fifth grade, but everyone knew that the waiter in the Hanlin Academy was a civil official with no real power. An Yuanxi stayed in Beijing as an official, if I live in Cangdu for a long time in the future, I will lack the greatest help by my side. That's kind of ...... Has the emperor started to make a move on the Yun family? My heart was cold. It's really fast!

"Mrs. Ronghua takes the order!" Double Happiness dragged out his voice. I received the decree with both hands, bowed my head and shouted long live. Standing up, Shuangxi said softly: "Mrs. Ronghua, the emperor asked the servants to bring a message, please mourn Mrs." ”

"There is Father-in-law Lao, please go inside to serve tea." I owe it. Shuangxi swept the dust: "The slave has to go back to the palace to talk to the emperor, so don't bother the lady." ”

"The concubine sent her father-in-law." I said kind words and asked my servant to bring out the reward seal. Shuangxi accepted it with the little eunuch, and said with a smile: "Madame doesn't need to be polite, the house is busy, so there is no need to send it." ”

After the holy decree came down, the people in the second room looked at me less presumptuously, probably because they didn't expect the emperor to issue an edict so soon to let Nuo'er inherit the title, I used to be just the mother of the prince, and now I have become the mother of the Marquis of Yongle, plus An Yuanxi was also made an official, the big house looks like the holy family is long, and their attitude has finally been restrained. It's also good, these people are only afraid that they will come to the Hou Mansion often, and with this holy decree, it can ensure that they will not come nonsense in a short time. Perhaps, this can be regarded as the emperor's gesture? At the same time as beating you with a stick, you will be given another candy to eat.

In the evening, when the outsiders are gone, I have time to go back to the room for dinner, just eat a few bites of somen noodles, Xiaohong came in and said that Yunde asked to see, I put down the bowl and went out of the room, seeing Yunde's face was extremely ugly, and said in surprise: "What happened?" ”

"Young lady......" Yun De glanced left and right, and stopped talking, "Something happened in the Hou Ye's courtyard, you can go over and take a look......"

Seeing his expression, I knew it must be inconvenient to talk about it here, so I nodded, and followed him. When I entered the courtyard, I found that there was something wrong with the atmosphere, and the people were all trembling and frightened. Yun De did not go to the old man's room, but took me through the courtyard, to the side room where the next person lived, I saw that there were four iron guards guarding the door, my heart was shocked, and when I entered the room, I was even more surprised, and I couldn't help but be stunned. The room was filled with the smell of blood, An Yuanxi sat on the chair, Yun Xiuyun stood on one side, and there was a weeping Jin'er kneeling on the ground, but these were not the reasons for my surprise, I was surprised that there were two human-shaped things covered with white cloth on the ground, and I knew at a glance what was covered under the white cloth, which was a human body.
