Hurried to the ink shop, and saw the dark coffin in the middle of the hall with his own eyes, Xu Ruliang's eyes turned black, and he only felt that the sky was spinning and losing his center of gravity, and he staggered back again and again. :3し

Can't you change your brother's fate?

"Brother......

"County Lord!" Fei Xiang hurriedly supported his crumbling body.

"Don't stop me, I'm going to see it, I don't believe it......" Xu Ruliang struggled to break away from Fei Xiang, broke free from the obstruction, and rushed to the coffin, "I don't believe it!" ”

"The county lord can't!" The servant panicked and called for help from Xu Qi. The death of the son of the world is too terrifying, an arrow piercing the heart is a fatal wound, and he has been trampled by the horse's hooves, and has become unrecognizable and flesh and blood. The county lord must be scared to death when he sees it.

Xu Qi waved his hand weakly, "Let her go." ”

Xu Ruliang clearly saw the scene in the coffin, and there was a burst of acid reflux in his stomach. Forced to endure, he lifted the sleeves on the corpse.

Bruised on his arm.

But only scars.

Xu Ruliang's mind turned, and he leaned back and fell back.

"County Lord!" Fei Xiang rushed up to catch her.

"The county lord has fainted!"

"What are you doing in a daze, go and ask for a doctor!"

The mourning hall was bustling with chaos.

Fei Xiang was feeling that the six gods were masterless, and suddenly felt the hand of the person in her arms tightly grasping her arm.

It turned out that the county lord pretended to be dizzy again.

She personally carried the person back to the Qingxin House.

Xu Ruliang said: "Hurry up and inform my grandfather, it is not my brother who sent it back, and ask him to send someone to southern Xinjiang to find my brother, and my brother has a circle of cinnabar red on his left arm." ”

It was when she was in Shaoyang that she ordered it herself.

Fei Xiang was busy doing it.

Xu Ruliang thought twice and decided to sleep first.

When she woke up, she had a lot to do.

In her previous life, Qidiao Yan'er pushed Xu Chong to the throne during this time, and she wanted to prevent Xu Chong from taking the position.

My brother will be back.

Even if his brother doesn't come back, Xu Chong is not the right person for the son. The cousin of the second room and the cousin Rin and cousin of the third room are more suitable than Xu Chong.

Xu Ruliang slept until dark and didn't wake up, ate a few pastries at random to fill his stomach, and rushed to the ink studio to keep the spirit.

The mourning hall has been arranged according to the specifications of the prince of the county, and the hall is full of white candles to illuminate the hall as bright as day, which makes people not feel eerie at all.

A few handmaidens and manservants folded gold paper beside them.

Xu Ruliang took a knife of gold paper and knelt on the futon in front of the coffin. Religiously burned.

After the time, the old Pingyang King Xu Yi came to visit.

The eldest son, Xu Qi, and the third son, Xu Qi, followed him on the left and on the right.

The people hurriedly put down what they were doing and knelt down to salute.

Xu Ruliang was unmoved and sent paper to the brazier. One by one, mechanically repeated. Xu Qi called her, but she didn't look back, still handing the paper.

Xu Jue looked at his father and brother, and also called softly, "Aunt Liang." ”

Xu Ruliang still didn't look back. Repeat the paper into the fire.

Xu Qi asked someone to help her.

Fei Xiang stepped forward and called her gently, she shouldn't, Fei Xiang went to help her, she didn't move, Fei Xiang cried urgently, "What's wrong with you, county lord?" Don't scare the slaves? ”

"Crying for what?" Xu Jue scolded, "How did you take care of the county lord? ”

"The county lord said that he would guard the spirit of the prince, but the slaves and maids did not dare to stop it, and the county lord did not sleep and knelt for two hours......"

"What do you say? Such weather. She is so young, how can she afford to kneel for two hours? Xu Yao's eyes were full of shock, and she hurriedly asked her mother to help her up.

The mothers snatched the gold paper from Xu Ruliang's hand and lifted her up.

Xu Ruliang's face was calm, but he couldn't see the slightest vitality as if he was stupid, and his hands were still repeating the action of burning paper.

"I'm afraid I'm stunned." Mom whispered.

Fei Xiang hurriedly asked, "Then what should I do?" ”

"Don't worry," said the mother, "wait for someone to call out to her, and get rid of the demon, and it will be fine." ”

"Then ......," Fei Xiang looked at Xu Qi instructively.

Xu Qi waved his hand.

Fei Xiang was overjoyed. "Then please call Mom quickly."

Mom pondered for a moment, and suddenly shouted at Xu Ruliang, "Go!" ”

Xu Ruliang shook in response, his expression gradually cleared, and his eyes also had brilliance. Seeing Xu Yi and the others, he was surprised: "Grandfather, father, third uncle, are you here?" ”

Xu Yi and Xu Qi's faces were heavy.

Xu Jue was afraid that they would scare Xu Ruliang like this, so he hurriedly said: "Let's send Brother Jing'er, is Xiao Aliang burning paper?" ”

Xu Ruliang looked at the brazier. Nodding, tears welling up in his eyes.

Xu Jue Pingsu loves children the most, and when he saw that she looked pitiful, he gave up his father and came over to hug her, "Aunt Liang knew that she wanted to burn paper for her brother at such a young age, which is really amazing." ”

"Third uncle......" Xu Ruliang fell on his shoulder and cried, "They said that my brother is gone, and he is gone like his mother, they all left Ah Liang, they don't want Ah Liang anymore, is it true?" ”

Xu Jue's face turned cold, "Who did you listen to?" ”

"Mother Zhang."

"Which chapter mom?"

"Brother Chong's nursing mother, Mother Zhang."

"Oh......" Xu Jue quietly patted her back and said soothingly, "Don't listen to their nonsense." ”

After leaving the mourning hall, it was as if he had completely forgotten what had just happened.

But Xu Qi didn't forget.

In the second half of the night, in the dead of night, the mourning hall also looked particularly bleak.

Fei Xiang came in with a basin towel and persuaded: "County Lord, wipe your face and rest for a while." Approaching Xu Ruliang, he said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Two quarters of an hour ago, Mrs. asked Chuanzhang's mother to go to the room. ”

Xu Ruliang nodded silently.

Fei Xiang said again: "Zheng'er has already woken up Second Master Chong, and went to the room to find Zhang's mother." ”

Zheng'er is Fei Xiang'an's person by Xu Chong's side.

"Okay." Xu Ruliang responded, took away the towel, his expression was miserable again, and he raised his tone and said bitterly: "My brother's bones are not cold, how can I rest?" ”

"County Lord, the deceased has passed away, why are you bothered......" Fei Xiang looked around without saying anything.

The maidservants were already fighting with their eyelids.

Xu Ruliang said: "You all step back first, I want to accompany my brother alone." ”

Everyone confessed to leaving the mourning hall and looking for a place to take a nap.

The people of Ink Shop refused to go.

Xu Ruliang said dejectedly: "You all go down, I want to be quiet for a while, and Fei Xiang can stay." ”

"What's next?" After making sure that everyone was gone, Fei Xiang hurriedly asked.

"Wait."

Xu Ruliang handed the paper to the brazier, watched the flames jump up, and went straight to his senses.

Today is almost over.

Tomorrow, the second prince will sacrifice the army on behalf of the Son of Heaven.

This is the same as in previous lives.

But the second prince is very different from his previous life...... is obviously a strong person, but he pretends to be sick all the year round to show weakness, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd. It's time to find out.

Xu Ruliang instructed: "When the army is rewarded tomorrow, ask someone to go to the street to find out the news, especially pay attention to the movements of the second prince." ”

Fei Xiang was busy assigning tasks.

This night, the heavy darkness of the night slowly receded in silence.

When the sky is white. Snowflakes began to fall one after another.

Xu Qi came to visit.

Xu Ruliang got up to salute, fell headlong when he was blessed, and was sent back to Qingxinju to recuperate.

When it was close to dusk in the afternoon, Fei Xiang received a report back and said: "The second prince fell off his horse on the way back, and the entourage has sent him back to the palace." Life and death are unknown. ”

"Did you fall off your horse?" Xu Ruliang put away the chess pieces flipped by his fingertips, "Then wait another day." ”

In his previous life, he announced the death of the second prince one day after falling from a horse.

If the second prince wants to succeed to the throne, there will be no news of the second prince tomorrow.

Wait another day, and we'll see.

Xu Ruliang can wait calmly, but Xu Qi can't.

In the big study in the front yard, Xu Qi and Dong Feng were talking.

Xu Qi's face was gloomy and a little anxious, and he asked Dong Feng, "What did the imperial doctor say?" ”

Because of the funeral of the prince, Emperor Yonghe specially allowed him to drop out of the dynasty for half a month. Although it was the emperor Longen, when something happened, it made it impossible for him to enter the palace in person to contact more news.

Dong Feng said: "I said that if I can survive tonight, it will be fine." If you can't ......"

If you can't, you're dead.

It doesn't matter if Mu Lianyi is dead, what matters is the future of the Xu family.

Xu Qi frowned tightly and didn't speak for a long time.

"Lord Wang, are you inside?" The voice came from outside the study, it was lacquer smoke.

Dong Feng looked at Xu Qi's expression and did not move.

Xu Qi rubbed his eyebrows, "You can retreat first, and report back if there is a situation." ”

"Yes." Dong Feng opened the door and let in.

Lacquer carving smoke came in with hot ginseng soup.

Last night's handling of Zhang's mother's affairs was dragged into mud, which made Xu Qi disgusted. She didn't dare to do it again.

He lowered his eyebrows and said: "The prince has just passed away, and there is a big event in the palace, and the concubine is worried that the prince is overwhelmed, so she specially stewed ginseng tea to calm the nerves." Take a sip. ”

Xu Qi took the small bowl and took a sip.

Drinking means there is room for manoeuvre.

Qi Diaoyan'er said in a homely manner: "The monks and nuns who have come to spend time for the prince have already entered the mansion, do you want to see the prince?" ”

Xu Qi waved his hand, "No need to see you." ”

"Yes," Lacquer Carving Yan'er said, looking at his face. "Then the concubine will let the housekeeper lead him directly to the mourning hall?"

"Hmm." Xu Qi nodded.

Qidiao Yan'er gritted his teeth and swallowed unwillingly, walked out of the study, and instructed the maid: "The prince is not going to the mourning hall, you go and take the second master and the second girl back, and say that the prince wants to see them." ”

The maid should retreat.

The lacquer carving smoke stomped his feet and was about to leave.

The door to the study opened suddenly.

Xu Qi walked out, "I'll go to the mourning hall to have a look." ”

The lacquer carving smoke was caught off guard: "Lord Wang, this ......"

"You can come along."

Xu Qi crossed her and walked in front of the meteor in a big stride.

Outside the ink studio, he met Xu Chong and Xu Ning.

The maid knelt down in panic: "Wang ...... The prince ......"

Xu Qi frowned and asked Xu Chong, "Why don't you stay in there to wake for your brother?" ”

Xu Chong hid back in fear.

Xu Ning greeted him, "We have guarded, we have been guarding it for a quarter of an hour just now, and Ning Er's legs are hurting on their knees." ”

pounced on her and wanted Xu Qi to hug her.

Qi Diaoyan'er hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Ning'er, you are talking nonsense again, how many times has my mother told you, from morning to night, it is a day, not a quarter of an hour." ”

"I know," Xu Ning was unconvinced, "I didn't talk nonsense......"

Qi Diaoyan'er glared at her and said, "You are just talking nonsense, if you talk nonsense like this, your father will not like you." ”

Xu Ning didn't dare to say any more, and begged for a hug aggrievedly.

Xu Qi ignored her outstretched arms, "What about your eldest sister?" ”

Xu Ning pointed to the ink shop, "It's inside." ”

Xu Qi passed over the mother, and did not call anyone to report, and came directly to the outside of the mourning hall.

The layout of the mourning hall has not changed, only the thick candle tears that gradually accumulate under each candlelight, declaring that time is constantly passing.

Time passes, and so does energy.

The faces of the people who guarded the spirits were more or less tired, so depressed that the mourning hall also looked gloomy.

In the black and white gloom, only the small white figure in front of the coffin has not changed at all because of the passage of time, and is still religiously worshipped. With a straight back, he stands like a mountain, as if he can support the backbone of the entire Xu family...... (To be continued.)
