There are many Dou clans in Chang'an City, and they all have their own industries scattered inside and outside the city, but the common ancestral industry is located in Yishanfang in Daming Palace in the north of the city. Ordinary life is carried out separately, but on major occasions and weddings and funerals with some important clansmen, they must be carried out in the ancestral industry of Yishanfang.

There are many noble mansions in the north of the city, so they are also heavily guarded, and there are few people who wander around.

After Li Tong and his entourage walked to the north of the city for a period of time, the streets were no longer lively, even if there were pedestrians, most of them were street disciples patrolling the city and various families in Xijing who went to Dou's funeral.

"There are so many good places in the city, it's hard to take a break for a long time, why do we come here?"

Li Shouli rode a horse parallel to Li Tong, his face was quite irritable, the horsewhip in his hand was pumping air, and there was no lack of complaints in his words: "My family and that Dou family rarely move around, and there is no friendship." I have also heard that the children of his family often talk about the rights and wrongs of my family outside, and their words are very unkind. Someone died in his family, and he still has to work for us to mourn? ”

After Li Tong heard this, he said with a smile: "I told you that this trip is boring, you want to come with it, who do you blame?" ”

"I don't think you're going to the cherry orchard without telling me, I've been going for a long time, I'm afraid people will miss me."

Li Shouli's expression was a little embarrassed and resentful, looking like that, he missed others more.

"Haha, even if I really want to go to the cherry orchard, I still have to hide it from you?"

There is also a case of Ping Kang Lingren selected by the Qujiang Assembly in the cherry orchard, Li Shouli naturally remembers it very much, but he was disciplined by the Niangniang Fang family, and he didn't dare to go without permission.

Hearing Li Tong say this, Li Shouli smiled, "San Lang, although you have your own opinions, it is always good to follow and help you with your spare time." Although this trip is a little boring, but the Dou family is not a good type, and I don't worry about you going alone, this point can't be called bad, you have to keep it in mind. ”

The brothers chatted all the way, and soon came to the outside of Yishan Fang, and when they looked up, they saw that all the hemp and horses were arranged from the middle of the square to the outside of the square, and even the trunks of the locusts and willows on both sides of the street were stretched with banners and hemp, and there were a lot of guests who came to mourn, and there were people of the Dou clan with solemn expressions who came in and out.

It can be seen that although Dou Shangjian died in a hurry, all kinds of funeral matters were well prepared, and the scene was very large.

But Li Tong only sneered in his heart after seeing this scene, this family is in arrears to the old clothing society and does not pay back the money for the hemp goods, but they still dare to be so extravagant and furnished, it is really too unrepaired!

"King Yong, King Hedong, the king enters the workshop!"

At the door of the fang, there is a loud voice of the Dou family slave pulling the voice of the name, the voice has not fallen, there have been many Dou family members in the workshop, one by one has a face, and there are Dou children to greet the left.

There are too many Dou family members, and Li Tong can't understand who is who, so after getting out of the car, he casually greeted and went to the mourning hall.

The ancestral hall of the Dou family is very wide, and it is also worthy of the style of the Wang family in his family. When the two kings entered, many guests were already waiting for them.

Li Tong was not in a hurry to enter the front to offer condolences, so he chatted with the guests who rushed here first in front of the hall, and by the way, he asked why this Dou Shangjian died suddenly, and whether there were any signs to check.

Chang'an Ling Fang Rong and Wannian Ling Quan Huai'en, including several officials who stayed in the mansion, were here, and stepped forward in turn to salute the young king.

Seeing the officialdom figures in Xijing like this, Li Tong couldn't help but sigh, although this Dou Shangjian was at home in white and had never been out of office, he really had a bit of the meaning of a white-clothed minister, and at the same time, he was even more puzzled in his heart.

He stood outside the hall for a moment, adjusted his mood slightly, and walked into the hall with a heavy face, only to see that the curtain in the hall was deeply hidden, and a coffin was vaguely visible in the tent.

Li Tong raised his hand to the coffin, and the newly accepted government member Quan Chuzhang stepped forward to read the hanging text. Taking advantage of this time, he pulled an old man of the Dou clan and frowned and asked, "A few days ago, I saw Dou Qigong in the Inspiration Temple, although it was not a happy occasion, but I didn't see any evil diseases, why did you suddenly spread the bad news?" ”

The old man of the Dou clan blinked his dry eyes, and said in a slightly trembling tone, "It's also a misfortune for the family, there have been too many disasters recently, and there are just some evil things undecided, so I don't want the seventh prince to ...... Alas, the only person who can be comforted is that the people are still quite generous, especially the two kings can come to the hanging spirit, let the dead rest in peace, and the living will be felt. ”

Hearing that the old guy was full of perfunctory mouth, Li Tong no longer wasted saliva, and simply went straight to the tent, and sighed in his mouth, "You and other disciples may not know, I often have dealings with Dou Qigong, before the meeting in the Inspiration Temple, one day I was still in the Leyou Plain, and I said that there was no such thing as a Range Rover and Beijing in Beijing." At that time, Dou Qigong also smiled and said that there is a garden villa pavilion nearby, and he wants to give it to me to help this interest, which is so affectionate that people can't refuse. But I don't want to be interested, people have passed away, I always have to meet today, and complain about sadness......"

"You, you! Uncle Seven didn't answer you at any time! ”

Before the young king's words fell, a Dou family in the hall who was kneeling and crying had already jumped up, pointing to the king of Hedong who was opening his mouth and said angrily.

Of course, Li Tong was talking nonsense, but when he saw someone jumping up, he paused and stopped, turned his head to look at the other party, his eyes turned cold, and he was silent for a moment before he said again, "In front of the undead tent, don't say vulgar things." I just felt it for a while, and occasionally mentioned the old communication situation, why did I speak so loudly? ”

"That's the case, Uncle Seven didn't ...... at all"

When the young man heard this, his face turned red with anger, and the halberd pointed at the young king and continued to roar loudly.

Li Shouli was originally a little reluctant to come to mourn, but when he saw this, he was even more angry, strode here, raised his hand and slapped off the fingers of this Dou family, and said angrily, "Who are you reprimanding?" Sunny day, good time, if it's not really difficult, who wants to enter this mourning door to provoke a bad luck! By that, do you mean that my brother blackmailed you? Your Dou family is so big, you have such a strong style, the bones are cold, and the old things are denied, do you think my family is not worthy of friendship with your family? ”

Hearing Li Shouli's words, Li Tong was really relieved, this second brother is no longer just a pig teammate who is dragging his feet, and his words are really loud.

He saw that the quarrel here had attracted many guests outside the hall to watch, so he raised his hand to pull Li Shouli back, and said, "Second brother, don't say it again, our brothers are in the hall today to comfort the deceased and convey grief." Dou Qigong died violently, and he didn't have time to calmly explain the details to his children, Si Ren has gone, what does it matter if this matter is true or not? Just a piece of the original house, it may not be happy, and it is inevitable to see Jingsi people when you travel closely, so you don't want to. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the Dou family who jumped out again, and said coldly, "Don't make a decision if you don't know." I don't argue with you, not because I'm cowardly, but because I don't want to disturb the spirits of the dead. Don't worry, even if I said this incident, it was just a joke at the time, if I was really greedy for your homeland, I would have to make a plan at that time, how could I leave something behind? The garden industry is your home, no one can fight for it, in addition to recuperation, be cautious and self-cultivation, and don't insult the ancestors. ”

Hearing the young king say this, the guests outside the hall couldn't help whispering, but few people suspected that the young king would make a decision to make a fuss at the Dou funeral, and most of the opinions were that there should be such a thing.

But Leyou's original manor is a beautiful product of Jingyi, but I'm afraid that even the dead Dou Qi was just a polite greeting on the scene at that time. At present, the young king casually said that he had a deep affection for each other, but the Dou family denied it, and seemed to be afraid that the young king would pursue it endlessly, which is really a bit out of line with everyone's atmosphere.

The surrounding guests talked a lot, and the Dou family in the hall looked ugly, and there was no need to say much, an elderly man stepped forward and pointed at the young man and said sharply, "There are many teachings on weekdays, and it is so rude to do things!" Don't apologize to the two kings yet! ”

"Excuse me, I can fatten myself by breaking my word, my brother is not willing to accept this gift!"

Li Shouli waved his hand and sneered, then turned to Li Tong and said, "Since we have already expressed our affection, let's go." ”

Li Tong shook his head, continued to walk towards the tent, and said, "I have a good relationship with Dou Qigongcheng, and this has nothing to do with anything else. You don't have to care about what others say, but you can't tell your grief today, and you can't let go of it. ”

"Get on your knees! Bow to the king, forgive you for your sins! ”

Seeing this, the old man of the Dou clan raised his foot and kicked on his son's knee, and quickly stepped forward to grab the robe of the king of Hedong, and said with an apologetic face, "The child's grief is uncontrollable, and his humble words are rude, and I also ask the king to be considerate of the recent family and don't blame." As for the old friendship between the Seventh Duke and the Great King, although he is not there, his feelings cannot be compromised, and when he is busy with this festival at home, he must fulfill the previous covenant. ”

"Your children have already said that, if my brother receives this karma again, how should Shi Liu criticize it?"

Li Shouli was still angry, but he also noticed that the third brother's tail finger was slightly hooked, indicating that he could continue to entangle this matter, and he was sure in his heart.

When the old man heard this, he said with a bitter face, "This bad man's humble words, the king should only ignore it, and the princes of Shiliu must also be considerate." Before and after the death of the seventh prince, everything has been explained, and the family does not dare to disobey, and the king is also asked to remember this old friendship, smile at this gift, and don't let the dead regret it. ”

"Can you hear what you have said? Can the dead be brought back to life? ”

"The second brother doesn't need to say anything, this matter is really not suitable to be discussed in detail. Although this young man has made a gaffe, I am also annoyed and talkative, leading to such a controversial old incident, alas, it is tired of affection. ”

Li Tong raised his hand to stop Li Shouli from continuing, but he no longer insisted on going to the tent, and then bowed his hand to the tent, and then said to the old man of the Dou family, "It is useless to hurt both sides of a small matter, and today is the case for the time being, my brother will not stay for a long time, let your family be calm." When it comes to the funeral, I must go to the house to inform me that I will set up an account to send the soul. ”

"Definitely, definitely!"

The old man of the Dou clan nodded again and again, and said, "The old things of the previous covenant, when I get to this festival, I will definitely come to the door to discuss it in detail." ”

"If you have a heart, you don't have to think about it."

Li Tong nodded, signaling Li Shouli and the rest of the men to leave the Dou Mansion and stay until Xing Yishanfang, his face was already full of sneers. Teased yourself hard, and you still want to pretend to be a ghost and fool the past? If you want to die so much, let you die cleanly!
