Chapter 538: Funeral (2nd Watch)

Huo Tiankang's gaze looked straight at Lu Shuyi, and Lu Shuyi did not evade it, letting him look at it.

Under the shadow, the woman's face was beautiful and calm like a painting, but there was a cold, bone-eroding coldness hidden in her eyes.

Huo Tiankang was in a trance for a moment, but after reacting, he said coldly: "Since my younger brothers and sisters have already said that the body cannot be kept for a long time, how to do it, don't you already have a plan in your heart?" Do you still need to ask for my opinion? His eyes were full of banter, and he said, "Wouldn't my brother and sister do this too much." ”

Lu Shuyi was annoyed in her heart, but she didn't say anything, she was still as plain as water: "Now that my father is not here, it stands to reason that the matter of the inner house should be decided by the mother concubine." But the eldest brother and the sister-in-law have a deep relationship, and the fate of the sister-in-law's body naturally has to be decided by the eldest brother himself, how dare others beak. ”

The words "deep love between the husband and wife" are really ironic, and Huo Tiankang is simply poked by these four words.

The veins on his forehead were throbbing.

Lu Shuyi was expressionless, only looked at him and said: "The mother concubine has been working hard every day for her sister-in-law's illness these days, and she is looking for a doctor with a lot of money, and she is ordering people to burn mugwort wine and smoke vinegar stones every day, and she also has to deal with the affairs of the house, a lot of hardships, so many pairs of eyes can see the people in this mansion......"

Huo Tiankang heard what Lu Shuyi meant, and he snorted coldly: "Brother and sister are accusing me? ”

"Don't dare." Lu Shuyi glanced at him, didn't bother to say another word to him, and only helped the princess and said, "Mother, I'll help you go back to rest, there is a big brother here, I believe he will be able to handle it properly." ”

What she said was very clever, Huo Tiankang just didn't want to deal with it.

The princess nodded slightly. The two helped each other out of the study.

When she arrived at the door of the study, Lu Shuyi did not forget to say to everyone in a loud voice: "If there is anything here, you can go directly to the prince, the princess is too sad and unwell because of the princess, so go back and rest first, and the prince is in charge." ”

Huo Tiankang gritted his teeth with hatred.

But such a smart woman is not his ......

However, the matter was urgent, and he couldn't afford not to deal with it, so he could only go to appease Zhou's emotions in person, and ordered someone to make a flower bed and prepare to burn the corpse.

The princess and Lu Shuyi helped each other halfway, and Lu Shuyi asked the princess in a low voice, "Big brother, he didn't do anything to you, right?" Are there any injuries? ”

The shoulder that Huo Tiankang had grabbed was still a little painful. The princess shook her head bitterly and said, "It's out of the way." He didn't dare to do anything to me. He whispered again: "It's you, you must be more careful in the future, I will order someone to guard you day and night until You'er comes back." ”

Lu Shuyi breathed a sigh of relief. Clasped his hands together and said, "I'm really afraid that he will attack you." ”

The princess gently squeezed her hand. I think her performance is great. Therefore, he smiled and said: "In the future, with you by You'er's side, I am completely relieved, you are stronger than when I was younger." I will be able to help your children in the future......"

Lu Shuyi just smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "This time the matter has been done carefully, even if the father-in-law comes back from the battle, he will not find the clues, and the He family also looks at it every day, which can be regarded as an explanation to the Empress Dowager He." ”

The princess exhaled a long breath, "He Ruyi has always harbored evil intentions, and if you get rid of her, you will be less dangerous, but I don't know if the emperor will give Kang'er another marriage...... " She frowned, faintly worried.

Huo Wangye's military achievements are too great, which one of the masters who has been high in merit since ancient times has a good end?

However, Lu Shuyi knew that it was impossible for Huo Tiankang to get married by the emperor again, so she said lightly: "I don't think so......"

"I hope ......"

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went all the way back to the princess's bedroom, and the princess couldn't get sick in the second half of the ring, and Huo Tiankang took care of everything alone, and Lu Shuyi symbolically assisted.

At first, the Zhou family did not agree to burn the corpse, but the law of the Great Zhou is like this, don't say that a princess, that is, the harem concubine died due to the epidemic, and the corpse must be burned, burn the things used in daily life, and bury the ashes deep in the ground.

The law cannot be abolished, and the Zhou family has no choice but to cry bitterly in grief.

Beat the flower bed, burned the corpse, burned all the things He Ruyi used, beat all the vinegar stones in his bedroom, sprinkled the liquor to ward off the disease, and did all these things all afternoon.

In the evening, He Ruyi's ashes were put into the blue jade altar, and Huo Tiankang began to prepare for the funeral.

On the matter of whether the funeral should be big or simple, Huo Tiankang and Zhou disagreed, and the two had a dispute.

Huo Tiankang believes that during the war of the Huo family, the funeral is simple, and he doesn't want to make a big deal.

In fact, he himself is unwilling to do a big job, He Ruyi died of the epidemic after all, in fact, many people are very taboo about this disease, if it is a big deal, they have to come, and they are really unwilling in their hearts, but the Huo family invited, and they couldn't help but give face, and they were reluctant to come.

He didn't want to do such a shameless thing.

But the Zhou family felt that they were going to collapse, their daughter couldn't leave a body when she died, and the funeral had to be Jane, where did they go with their face?

The two had an argument because of this, Zhou's eyes were red and swollen, he slapped it on the sandalwood table, and choked up: "My daughter has only been married into your He family for half a year, but the person is suddenly gone, do you know how sad I am to be a mother......" said a line of tears falling down in tears.

Ouyang hurriedly handed her a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and whispered, "Mother take care." ”

Zhou glared at her, took a handkerchief to wipe away his tears, and said to Huo Tiankang: "My daughter is her own blessing, she is gone, no wonder you, but the funeral must be done big, if you don't do it big, how can you comfort her in the spirit of heaven?" My daughter, who has been raised by me for more than ten years, is like this...... Just looked at the silent burial, no, absolutely not, who did she think of? ”

Zhou's attitude is very firm, and it must be done in a big way.

Huo Tiankang was a little irritable, frowned at Zhou, and said, "It's not that I don't want to do a big job, it's just that my father is fighting outside the ...... right now."

"Don't say it, I understand all the truth." Zhou raised his hand to interrupt Huo Tiankang's words, and said coldly: "I only have this one daughter, she was not wronged when she was alive, and now she is gone...... How could I let her be wronged? The tone was hard and he said: "If you don't want to do it, I will go to the Queen Mother and her old man." ”

Lu Shuyi only listened on one side and didn't say a word.

For her, it has nothing to do with her whether it is big or not, and she doesn't want to meddle in this matter.

But Hu Shi didn't let her go, with an attitude of not being afraid of the stage when watching the play, he stared at her and said, "County Lord, do you think it should be a big deal?" ”

Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on Lu Shuyi's face.

Lu Shuyi pretended to be sad, but she thought a lot in her heart, and then said in a low voice: "My sister-in-law asked me about this, and I don't know how to answer you." ”

Hu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why?" ”

Lu Shuyi didn't say much, only said: "If I say that everything is simple, my sister-in-law will definitely think that I have a bad heart, but if I say that I will make a big deal, I don't feel appropriate with the current situation." ”

Huo Tiankang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Lu Shuyi to stand with him at this time. (To be continued......)
