In the midst of the controversy, Shi Zhongqiu was canonized as the king of Nanyang County, and her cousins who coveted the property of the palace were bloodied and bloodied. And Shi Zhongqiu did not treat her family harshly, she took out a quarter of the family's property and distributed it to her cousins, hoping that they could use this money to live a good life and stop living as before.

There are some fields and real estate in the palace of Nanyang County, of which the field is outside Longdu City, there are 2,000 acres of land, 100 tenants, the real estate is in Longdu City, located in the outer 72 squares, there are more than 30 buildings, and the rent collected every year is a lot of money. But Shi Zhongqiu was kind and gave each cousin a yard for them to live in.

Good intentions may not be exchanged for good results, just two days before the corpse of the old Nanyang County King was ready to enter the city, Wang Jingzhi, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, suddenly found Zhang Xiaowu and told him: "The Shi family brothers are preparing to make trouble during the state funeral of the Ying Ling, and several people discussed riding horses to rush into the team and drive away the Shi County Lord (Nanyang County King), and they will be the spirits." ”

"These guys are crazy, aren't they?" Zhang Xiaowu was surprised, how could anyone rush into the funeral procession, and Shi Zhongqiu had already given them benefits, regardless of the bad things they had done, it was really a lack of people's hearts to swallow elephants, and gold and silver treasures could not raise white-eyed wolves.

Wang Jingzhi sneered and said, "This matter is not enough for our Jinyi Guard to make a move, so I will leave it to you." ”

Zhang Xiaowu said: "Okay." ”

Wang Jingzhi: "Don't kill people. ”

Zhang Xiaowu smiled and said: "We are the silver guards, not your gold guards, we don't kill people." ”

Wang Jingzhi shook his head and said, "You have killed a lot of people, don't think I don't know, I just pretend not to know." Zhang Xiaowu laughed dryly, and Wang Jingzhi suddenly asked, "I heard that you are going to marry the two young ladies of the Gu family?" ”

Zhang Xiaowu said: "Where did you hear about it? ”

Wang Jingzhi: "Remind you, it's best not to have anything to do with the Gu family now." ”

"What do you know?" Zhang Xiaowu asked hurriedly.

Wang Jingzhi waved his hand and left.

The few people who cleaned up the Shi family didn't need Zhang Xiaowu to make a move, he asked Xia Ming to handle it, and Xia Ming immediately found Shi Chong'an, who was the leader, and secretly arrested him in the water prison. Before Xia Ming could torture him, Shi Chong'an explained everything in one go, who planned it, how it was planned, who was responsible for doing what, who was responsible for how to do it, and explained it cleanly.

Xia Ming began to arrest people according to the list, and all of them were taken to the Yinyi Guard Water Prison, so that they could calm down in the water prison for a few days, and then release them after the state funeral had passed. For the family affairs of the Shi family, everyone knows the cause and effect, but the Shi family's cousins' move is understandable in the hearts of the people, after all, the Shi family's property will be married to someone else in the future, and when the family name inherits the Nanyang County Mansion in the future, it will be too late for the Shi brothers to say anything or do anything. Moreover, what the Shi brothers did was not a capital crime, everyone could only prevent them from disturbing the state funeral.

This arrest is not the end of the Shi brothers' revenge, but their starting point.

On the day of the state funeral, Shi Zhongqiu, who was a descendant of the spirit, was dressed in white armor and walked in front of the coffin on horseback, resisting the spirit flag on his shoulder, crying almost uncontrollably. All the people wept and were sad when they saw it, and heroes like the king of Nanyang County would inevitably die, not to mention ordinary soldiers. In this battle of the Southern Expedition, I don't know how many people died in Jiangnan.

Zhang Xiaowu rode a horse and slowly advanced with the coffin procession, but he was not in the team, but walked parallel to another avenue, and the left and right roads were all blocked, except for the forbidden army, only the silver guards were allowed to walk. Zhang Xiaowu monitored the road at all times to prevent the Tianhuo Sect from taking the opportunity to make trouble, although the Shi brothers stopped making trouble, but what if the Fire Sect disciples had trouble one day?

But fortunately, Wang Deyue, the leader of the Tianhuo Sect, admired the king of Nanyang County very much, and specially ordered that the funeral of the king of Nanyang County should not be disturbed, so this time the state funeral of the Heroic Spirit was extremely smooth, and there was no one to do, only the white paper money in the sky and the white silk and slogans along the road.

The generals of the Nanyang County Royal Mansion who were walking in the coffin saw these slogans, although they were simple and vulgar, but they touched people's hearts, knowing that their hard work had not been disappointed, and they also knew that the country remembered their own merits. Although the king of Nanyang County was defeated and killed himself, this battle was not the fault of the king of Nanyang County, and afterwards Du Shanbo had deduced this battle, no matter how the battle was reviewed, the Suzaku Army should not be defeated. However, in fact, the Suzaku Army was not only defeated, but also defeated, and even lost the manager.

The state funeral is divided into three days, the first day is the return of the heroic soul, that is, the body of the king of Nanyang County is transported back to the county king's mansion, and the family members hold a sacrifice to mourn the guests, and the second day is to send the coffin to the ancestral tomb of the Shi family to be buried, the ancestral tomb of the Shi family is not far from Mishan, the third day is to put the tablet in the ancestral hall, and the fourth day is to come to the ancestral hall of the Shi family on behalf of the emperor by the imperial envoy to express condolences.

Originally, Zhang Xiaowu only needed to follow the first day of this matter, but as soon as Shi Zhongqiu returned to the house, he fainted with excessive sadness. Zhang Xiaowu went to visit, Shi Zhongqiu suddenly grabbed his hand and said, "Brother Zhang, you help me, I can't hold on." ”

Zhang Xiaowu saw that the little county lord's red apple face had now been thinned into a melon seed face, and the dark circles under her eyes were sunken, so she knew that she really couldn't resist. Shi Zhongqiu is only twenty years old, he has not experienced too many stories, and he has been able to persist until now beyond everyone's expectations. He also admired Shi Zhongqiu's courage and ability, and when she encountered a problem, Zhang Xiaowu helped without hesitation.

On the second day of the state funeral, Zhang Xiaowu followed Shi Zhongqiu and accompanied her to Mishan to send her to the funeral. In the following days, Zhang Xiaowu stayed by Shi Zhongqiu's side, helping her as much as possible, and even sometimes making decisions on her behalf. In Zhang Xiaowu's opinion, Shi Zhongqiu's friend, he didn't treat her as a woman at all, but in the eyes of outsiders, it is different, a man is so dedicated to helping an unmarried woman, there must be an ulterior secret during the period.

Of course, although everyone said so in private, no one dared to ridicule it publicly, after all, one was the commander of the Yinyi Guard of the current dynasty, and the other was the king of Nanyang County, the only queen of the country. If an official makes a public joke about them, they will be punished, demoted or imprisoned.

But the officials didn't dare to talk about this scandal publicly, it doesn't mean that the people and some good idlers are talking nonsense, especially the Shi brothers, since they were thrown into the water prison by the silver guards for a few days, they will say how domineering the silver guards are, and the silver guards covet the property of the Nanyang County Palace.
