About fifty miles west of Shiming City, surrounded by the peaks called Zangxiu Mountain, there is a platform where the water flow is tortuous, the Tibetan wind gathers qi, the front Vermilion Bird, the back Xuanwu, the left green dragon, the right white tiger. Xiaohua and several scholars of the Ji Kingdom surveyed this place, and immediately led the labor army of the Black Mule Legion to start construction, and the construction of the underground tomb was completed in only three days.

Han Lingxiao put the coffin of Wai Lan into it, and sealed all the items in the new house that Ting Lan arranged for them, including the big bed, bed, cupboard clothes, tableware, dressing table accessories, etc., as well as the wedding gifts of the guests, all of them were sealed into the tomb as funeral items.

The main body of the mausoleum of Princess Mulan was built in seven days, like a beautiful building, solemn and solemn, but all made of stones. Xiaohua named this place "Princess Orchid Mausoleum", and the surrounding area was renovated into a mausoleum garden.

On this day, coinciding with the Winter Clothes Festival, the five-color paper strips are stacked in two layers, and then tied up with a ball of silk and linen, together with melons, fruits, pears and peaches, and placed on a stone tablet in front of the mausoleum.

Winter has begun, at this moment, the frost is heavy, the mountains are cold and the water is cold, and the winter clothes are sent away, which is as warm as ever.

After the tomb sacrifice is completed, Xue He, Caitong and Xiao Heng and others will continue to travel west here, escorting Princess Wanlan's spiritual throne to King Ji's Palace, and Han Yuluo, Chu Jianxiong and Shan Zhu will also walk with them on behalf of Han Lingxiao.

Here, Han Lingxiao shook hands with Xue He and said goodbye, wanting to say goodbye. In the end, Han Lingxiao still said with a little whimper: "Brother Xue, please tell King Ji, just say that I, Han Lingxiao, have failed to live up to his trust and failed to protect Princess Wanlan, and when my master's body recovers, I will definitely go to apologize in person." ”

Xue He sighed, patted Han Lingxiao's shoulder, and said kindly: "Lingxiao, don't blame yourself too much, you still have a long way to go, and you must focus on the overall situation." I will escort Princess Wailan back to the palace this time, it will take some time, after settling down, I will also find out the matter of the exchange of children in the palace that Mulan and you entrusted me before, you will be at ease to guard Shiming City, Wu is stable, and the surrounding neighbors will be safe. ”

Han Lingxiao calmed himself down and said seriously: "Brother Xue, don't worry about the matter here, with us, Shi Mingcheng and Wuguo will be safe and sound." Also, I will never be rude to Xiaohua again, and I apologize to you again. ”

Xue He also nodded seriously, and said in a magnanimous tone: "Ling Xiao, don't you know Xiaohua's personality, she is just so arrogant, she won't care about your attitude that day, you see this 'Princess Lan Mausoleum' is a masterpiece of her intentions." You believe her, I believe you, and you don't have to apologize in the future. ”

Han Lingxiao hurriedly nodded yes, "What Brother Xue said is extremely true, I will definitely obey the instructions." ”

Over there, Xia Yuqian was also saying goodbye to Caitong, and she asked with concern: "Caitong, will you definitely come back here again?"

Caitong couldn't help nodding, took Xia Yuqian's hand and said, "Sister Xiaoqian, don't worry, although my home is in Xiling, Jiguo, I will definitely come back." My family's whereabouts are still unknown, and I want to find out. ”

Xia Yuqian also nodded hurriedly and replied, "Well, we will help you track it down." ”

Caitong said very movingly: "Sister Xiaoqian, you are all people I trust very much, as soon as I followed Wei Duxun to Shiming City, I found that the Black Mule Legion was originally founded by Han Lingxiao, Xue Guoshi, Princess Lan and Xiaohua, so I joined in without hesitation. Although Princess Ranan is no longer here, I will never change my original intention. ”

Xia Yuqian was deeply affected and said: "Caitong, your pursuit is very meaningful, I admire you very much." ”

Cai Tong covered her mouth again and whispered in Xia Yuqian's ear: "Also, don't we still have to figure out the matter of the Ethereal Realm Ancient Tower together, so I will definitely return with Xue Junshi." ”

Xia Yuqian couldn't stop agreeing with "uh-huh" after hearing this.

After seeing Xue He's and his entourage travel far away to Jiguo, Han Lingxiao returned to Shiming City with everyone. Although this tomb sacrifice was all a tiring journey, at first, he still looked back step by step, because of the long knot of resentment, and there was no time to see each other.

After that, Han Lingxiao and Wei Muxun, Chu Xiaohe, Yin Shi and others rode first. On the road, everyone has no time to take care of the scenery along the way, they are all in a heavy mood, hurrying back, just hoping to settle down and perform their duties as soon as possible.

Xia Yuqian, Yuan Ying and Feng Chen sat in a four-wheeled horse cart, although there were some bumps on the road, but they didn't think so, and their expressions were solemn.

"There's one thing, I probably shouldn't keep keeping it from Caitong and making her hopeless. Xia Yuqian suddenly said to Feng Chen melancholy.

"What's the matter, why are you hiding it?" asked Feng Chen, puzzled.

"Caitong's parents and clansmen may have been victimized by the underground workshop in Hanqing City, because they can't be sure, so it's inconvenient to tell her. However, I never mentioned this matter to her, for fear of hitting her too hard and making her desperate. After Xia Yuqian finished speaking, she sighed.

"Yuqian, what are you talking about in the underground dark workshop of Hanqing City, who was victimized, is it Caitong's family, because of what?" Yuan Ying asked very eagerly, although she hadn't been to Hanqing City for a long time, it was the location of Hanchemen after all, and it was the place where her mother worked hard to run.

Xia Yuqian and Feng Chen remembered that Yuan Ying was still sitting next to them, and they regretted their negligence very much, especially Xia Yuqian, because she was in a heavy mood, she didn't care about Yuan Ying, and only thought about chatting with Feng Chen to relieve her mood.

"This happened a long time ago, we only know that someone was killed, but we can't know for sure who the victim is, let alone why, so you don't need to know about it. Feng Chen said to Yuan Ying lightly.

"However, I guess what you are talking about must have something to do with the murder of my mother, and of course it may also have something to do with the disappearance of Caitong's family. So, you shouldn't hide it from me anyway. Yuan Ying said anxiously.

"Ying'er, don't worry, when things come to light, we will naturally know what's going on. Fengchen comforted her.

"Isn't it uncertain, how can it be revealed, since it has been so long, I haven't figured it out, I don't think I can figure it out. Therefore, Caitong will never have the opportunity to see her family again. It's like why my mother was killed, even if you know, you have to hide it from me forever, right?" Yuan Ying said with a grumbling heart.

"Ying'er, now is not the time to talk about this matter, and I can't understand this matter at present. Everyone is in a heavy mood today, so let's talk a little bit about it. Fengchen looked at Yuan Ying and said earnestly.

Yuan Ying sighed and fell silent.
