In the thirty-fifth year of Jingxi, in May, Marquis Jingyuan passed away.

At this time, sixteen years have passed since he led his troops to the northwest to quell the rebellion.

In the past sixteen years, Marquis Jingyuan has not been able to come out of the shadow of the beginning, and all kinds of things on the battlefield have always been buried in his heart and lingered. The death of Mrs. Jiang that year made this heavy blow even more unbearable.

For many years, it has long been no secret that Marquis Jingyuan has been delirious.

From the emperor to the people, everyone knows it.

Only Lu Qingrong, after listening to his dying words, had a different idea in his heart.

Sometimes, there are some truths and falsehoods in this madness, and I am afraid it is not so easy to see clearly.

And whether it is true or not, for Jingyuanhou, today's death, to a certain extent, may not be a relief......

But what did he mean by what he just said?

Why don't they continue to investigate the events of the year, why do they say that this is to protect Jiang Xuan?

Will Jiang Xuan really be in danger because of this?

The sadness is still there, and Lu Qingrong has no time to think about it for the time being.

Without much delay, she immediately called for someone from outside to come in.

Hearing the trembling in her voice, Jiang Xuan and Mrs. Wu both unconsciously took two steps.

I saw Jingyuan Hou lying flat on the bed, motionless.

The sunlight outside the window poured in, barely enough to reach a foot in front of the bed, and could no longer shine into the interior. Everyone stood in place with tears in their eyes, perhaps the hour had passed for a long time, and the sunlight seemed to retreat a little more, making the whole bed even colder.

Jiang Xuan stepped closer. Kneel beside the bed.

Looking at the eyes that Jingyuan Hou was still open, his heart seemed to be blocked with a thousand-pound boulder, which could not be moved or broken.

Jiang Xuan slowly stretched out his hand. Gently brushed his eyes before he closed them.

"My father is dead."

As soon as Jiang Xuan's voice fell, a burst of crying and shouting immediately broke out in Jingchun Hall.

Led by Mrs. Wu, with Mother Lu and a cadre from Jingchuntang, there were more and more people, and the voices were getting louder and louder.

This is of course the etiquette and custom of Daqi.

If you look into what they are crying about. I'm afraid there aren't many things to do with Marquis Jing Yuan himself.

The subordinates in Jingchun Hall have been diligent, and they can't find anyone for more than a year. Therefore, no one has any feelings for Jingyuanhou. Most of them were crying about themselves.

Those who have served in Jingchun Hall in the past, once they go out, will not continue to stay in the mansion, but will be sent to various Grange Courtyards. Moreover. But if you make only a small mistake, you will be led away by human teeth.

Therefore, at this moment, they are crying because they are uncertain about their future.

Although Lu Qingrong had never cried so much, his eyes were red and his cheeks were slightly wet.

Jiang Xuan was more forbearing, although he did not shed tears, the pain in his heart was no less than anyone else.

Marquis Jingyuan passed away. All the ensuing matters of the Hou Mansion must be arranged by him.

Jiang Xuanqiang was in good spirits. was about to go out, but was stopped by Mrs. Wu.

"Wait!" Mrs. Wu's crying stopped abruptly, walked forward quickly, pointed at him and shouted: "Master Hou is fine early in the morning, what did you see in the Yu Courtyard, so you were suddenly scared like this?!" ”

But anyone with eyes, who can't see that Marquis Jingyuan was stimulated by listening to the emperor's edict and knowing that Jiang Ke was going to conquer Mobei.

But Mrs. Wu asked that it was a reasonable one.

Jiang Xuan's gaze flashed directly from Mrs. Wu in front of him, and he looked at Marquis Jing Yuan, who was lying quietly on the bed.

Unwilling to let his father go unpeacefully, he did not intend to pay attention to Mrs. Wu.

But she didn't want to, but Mrs. Wu became more arrogant.

"Hou Ye is not in good spirits these days, he should have stayed in Jingchun Hall to recuperate, not to mention, he hasn't been out of Jingchun Hall for more than a year! You have to drag him to the Yuyuan today, what are you thinking! ”

Mrs. Wu couldn't wait to button Jiang Xuan's hat.

Jiang Xuan couldn't bear it anymore, so he said softly: "It's rare that Mrs. has worked hard to manage the virtuous name for so many years, and she doesn't want it at all today?" Your father's warmth is still there, and you can't wait to show your true colors? If you have any thoughts, I would like to advise you first, you must not have the intention of harming others, and you must not eat the consequences of your own evil! ”

Although Jiang Xuan's voice was soft, it exuded a fierceness.

When Mrs. Wu heard this, she couldn't help but tremble.

Jiang Xuan ignored him and strode away.

When he was far away, Mrs. Wu dared to speak out.

I saw her glance back at Marquis Jing Yuan, the sadness on her face had long been replaced by a burst of strong hatred, and she couldn't tell whether it was Jiang Xuan or anyone else.

With enough strength to snort coldly, she actually left Jingyuanhou alone, and directly took Lu's mother back to Qinyi Courtyard, and disappeared.

Lu Qingrong was dumbfounded.

At this time, Jiang Xuan suddenly turned back.

He was not surprised to find that Mrs. Wu was no longer there.

Walking up to Lu Qingrong, he said: "There are many things for me to go to the front to arrange, and I have to send people to various mansions to report the funeral, and personally write an excerpt to the emperor...... I can't take care of you. Jingchuntang's matter, let Mother Ye and Mother Cao help more, you have to do what you can. There is also Qinyiyuan, if they come to make trouble, you just don't have to pay attention to it. ”

It's all confessional, and there's nothing special about it.

But the extremely sad tone still made Lu Qingrong's eyes blur a little.

Lu Qingrong nodded forgedly: "I understand, you can go." Don't worry about this, I can handle it. ”

Jiang Xuan didn't say anything more, and went to Jingyuan Marquis to make a big salute before going to the front yard.

And Mrs. Wu, as soon as she returned to Qinyi Courtyard, she first told the maids in the courtyard to cry out loud, the louder the better, but she herself pulled Mother Lu to speak.

I don't know if there is no grief at all, or if there is something more important.

"What do you mean...... Want to tell the emperor about the prince? "Mother Lu had long guessed that Mrs. Wu had this plan, but the death of Marquis Jingyuan this time obviously had nothing to do with the prince......

"Of course!" Mrs. Wu said it as a matter of course, "Master Hou went to Yuyuan, and he was scared to death not long after he came out, which everyone has seen!" ”

She directly erased the paragraph where Chang Gonggong came to deliver the decree.

"Master Hou was frightened by this unfilial son's design and died in Huangquan, of course we have to let him be punished as he deserves!" Mrs. Wu was completely immersed in her own imagination.

Lu's mother tried to wake her up: "But this ...... without evidence"

"Who said there are no credentials!" Mrs. Wu immediately interrupted it, "Go and call me Wu Qiniang from Yuyuan!" Let's go into the palace immediately to find the Queen Mother and cry out! ”

Only then did Lu's mother understand that Mrs. Wu still had such a hand.

After thinking for a while, Lu's mother then persuaded: "With Wu Qiniang as a witness, the Queen Mother will definitely believe it." But the emperor's side may not be! ”

Mrs. Wu thought that she had succeeded in provoking last time, and she was very confident at this time: "Don't worry, Your Majesty...... I guess we're waiting for us to file a complaint! (To be continued.) )
