Chapter 924: Rising Again

Although Jiangbei Pavilion is not in Xianyang, Jiang Mansion still has Jiang Pu, a four-grade master, although he also doesn't like his brutal and willful niece, but Jiang Chuyue died to protect the Marquis of Qinghe, although she is still an unmarried daughter, according to the rules, you can't stop the funeral, but Chen Xu arranged for the housekeeper to come to tell her in person that Jiang Chuyue must be buried with a solemn ceremony, and Jiang Pu had to summon the Jiang clan to arrange the construction of a mourning hall for funeral.

At noon, Chen Xu, who was pale, dressed neatly and took all his family members to Jiangfu to worship.

"Hou Ye is injured and should be recuperated in the house, how dare you work Hou Ye personally came to condole!" Jiang Pu led the Jiang clan to greet him at the door in person.

"If it weren't for Miss Chuyue, it would be me who was lying in the wooden coffin today, Ben Hou was sad and regretful, and he could only express his heart a little when he came to condole, and I don't know how sad Jiang County Ling would be if he knew it, alas~"

After Chen Xu got out of the car, he looked at the mourning hall with a sad face.

"With Hou Ye so concerned, I will be relieved to come to Yue'er Jiuquan, Hou Ye should not be too sad, the matter was rushed and the fourth brother is not in Xianyang, everything is arranged in a hurry and simply, please don't blame Hou Ye, please~"

Jiang Pu wiped the corners of his eyes and sighed slightly, and took Chen Xu and others to the mourning hall to pay their respects.

The hastily built mourning hall is surrounded by white flags and white cloths, swaying slightly in the wind, a hastily built beech thick coffin is offered in the center of the mourning hall, and several ice jians are placed under the coffin, the strong cold air is emanating from the ice jian, and the whole mourning hall is full of a strong cold, so as soon as they step into the mourning hall, everyone can't help but feel that their bodies are tight, and their breathing becomes heavy.

In the open lid of the coffin, Jiang Chuyue had neat makeup, a delicate and picturesque face, wearing a light blue silk skirt, her eyes were closed, and there seemed to be a faint smile on her white cheeks.

Looking at the girl lying alone in the coffin, Chen Xu's heart stabbed one after another, and the bits and pieces of knowing Jiang Chuyue kept coming to mind, although the two did not have much interaction, but every time Chen Xu remembered deeply, he didn't have any liking for this girl, but this time he went to Peixian and then went to Wuzhong and then to Langya, this journey of thousands of miles, he knew Jiang Beiting's thoughts, and also knew Jiang Chuyue's thoughts, although he had been silent and followed him like a shadow, But Chen Xu could still feel Jiang Chuyue's faint indescribable sadness and sorrow at any time, as if she had lost her soul, and only occasionally when she talked to Chen Xu could she feel a trace of her activity.

In this era, a woman who is not married and has no husband can not be buried thickly, and she can not be buried in the Jiang clan mausoleum, she can only find a barren mountain to be buried, as Jiang Chuyue's only brother in Xianyang, although Jiang Chuxing is also extremely painful, but he can only be busy arranging the future, Xianyang is more than 2,000 miles away from Pei County, and he must be buried if he can't wait for Jiang Beiting and his wife to rush back, and he may not even wait for the news of Jiang Chuyue's death to reach Pei County.

Not long after Chen Xu came to Jiangfu to mourn, Jiang Chuxing's eyes were red and he came in from outside, and he choked up and thanked him after seeing Chen Xu.

"Brother Jiang, please get up, Miss Chuyue saved me and died, how can I be buried in the barren mountains and mountains......" Chen Xu helped Jiang Chuxing up with both hands, and after pondering for a long time, he turned his head with a serious and serious face to look at Shui Gentle Ying Shiyan and Meng Wan, "Although I have no marriage with Miss Chuyue, I have an appointment as a fiancée, although this appointment is just a scene, but I can't bear to see Miss Chuyue's soul gone, I want to bury Miss Chuyue in the name of my fiancée in Chen's cemetery, what do you think?" ”

"Master Hou don't, this matter must not be!" Not only Jiang Pu and the Jiang clan were shocked, but even Jiang Chuxing shook his head with a pale face.

"Why not, Miss Chuyue is commensurate with my husband, and this matter was arranged by Brother Jiang, and Jiang County Ling and his wife also agreed......" Chen Xu looked at Jiang Chuxing.

"Miss Chu Yue sacrificed her life to save Yi Bo Yuntian, and my husband has no objection to arranging us like this!" The water was gentle, and Ying Shiyan and Meng Wan all had red circles in their eyes, and they saluted at the same time.

"Then arrange it like this!" Chen Xu nodded slightly, carefully observed a piece of jade pendant that had been holding in his hand again, sighed slightly, and put it beside Jiang Chuyue, thought for a while, and then untied a piece of his jade pendant and put it together.

"Hou Ye and the three concubines are so kind to the third sister, I will be very happy to come to the third sister Quanxia to know, Chu Xing will thank the Hou Ye and the third sister for their father!" Jiang Chuxing was inexplicably moved and prepared to bow down again.

"Brother Jiang, don't use such a big gift!" Chen Xu grabbed Jiang Chuxing and shook his head, and then instructed the housekeeper who followed him to discuss the burial with the Jiang clan.

Although Jiang Chuyue came to mourn because of identity problems, only some relatives and friends of the Jiang family, and there were not many people, but not long after Chen Xu left, a large number of Xianyang people and celebrities and businessmen suddenly came in groups, including Chen Ping, Zhang Cang, Li Shun, Qi Mao and others, and Meng Yun and a group of gentlemen also came to worship and mourn, and as time went on, after hearing the news that Jiang Chuyue would be buried in the name of the fiancée of the Marquis of Qinghe, the whole Xianyang was surprised and puzzled again. The civil and military officials and princes and princes all began to act, bringing a large number of gifts to the Jiang Mansion to mourn, and finally even the palace also heard the news and moved, Fusu and other princes came to worship in person, and Concubine Jiang, Concubine Zheng, Concubine Shu, Concubine Yun, etc. also sent palace people to come to condole and condole.

A funeral that should have been extremely simple slowly turned into a grand ceremony that shocked the entire Xianyang, because of the sudden change in Jiang Chuyue's identity, officials from three provinces and six ministries came one after another, and the Ministry of Rites sent officials to organize the funeral, organizing craftsmen and prisoners to dig tombs and build mausoleums in a mountain forest in Chen Xu's fiefdom.

Three days after the suspension of the spirit, under the escort of hundreds of forbidden troops, Jiang Chuyue's corpse went out of the city to be buried, in addition to the Qinghe Marquis Mansion and hundreds of people from the Jiang family escorted the hearse, there were hundreds of thousands of people in Xianyang City to send each other off.

The day after the funeral, Xianyang Metropolis Daily published a condolence message on the first page, which was written by the Marquis of Qinghe himself, with a line of big black characters on the front line: Righteousness is thin and cloudy, and Chu Yue is painful!

"Husband, you've done well enough, don't hurt too much, your body is important!"

After the funeral, in the newly settled cemetery, yellow paper and white silk were sprinkled everywhere, countless white flags were hunted and swayed in the wind around the mausoleum, the guests were scattered, Chen Xu and his family came to worship melons and fruits and candles again.

Shui Gentle, Ying Shiyan, Meng Wan and Fan Caiying accompanied each other around each other, and countless servants of the Qinghe Marquis Mansion silently lowered their heads and wiped their tears.

"People can't be resurrected after death, but what's the use of doing more?"

Looking at the rising green smoke and the paper money that had not yet been extinguished, Chen Xu silently stared at the black tombstone engraved with 'The Tomb of the Jiang Clan, the Fiancée of Qinghe Hou Xu's Jiang Clan, and his face was desolate while sighing.

Some people, some things, only know after they miss it, but no matter how much they do, it has almost no meaning, and he does this just to appease the Jiang family, and at the same time to express his guilt for Jiang Beiting.

At the beginning, he promised to take good care of Jiang Chuyue, but he didn't expect that there would be such a big mistake when he was about to arrive in Xianyang.

Blood debts can only be paid in blood.

Chen Xu's eyes slowly became cold and sharp.

In addition to Jiang Chuyue's funeral, the guards and young men who accompanied him and the accompanying horsemen and servants also died more than 20 people, although Chen Xu did not need to worry about the burial, but after all, he died because of him, so Chen Xu also carefully interrogated each other, most of these guards are family people, and there are parents, wives and children at home, all of whom need to be properly appeased.

Although Chen Xu had already judged the assassination of the Xiang and Ji brothers in advance, he still underestimated the determination of the Xiang family and the appeal and ruthlessness of the Ji brothers, and after following all the way to learn that Chen Xu would return to Xianyang through Hangu Pass, a premeditated ambush began to be carefully arranged, first arranging bandits to pretend to be mountain people on both sides of the Hangu Valley to prepare boulders to block the valley, and then disguised as business travelers and pedestrians who entered and exited the Hangu Pass every day The assassins attacked closely, in order to prevent Chen Xu from escaping, two different groups of archers were laid down at the mouth of the valley, After an extremely fierce and tragic battle, the Ji brothers did not succeed, the assassins who participated in the ambush in the valley were almost killed and wounded, and most of the archers in the valley were killed and wounded, but the mastermind and the head did not catch any of them, Chen Xu did not know the subsequent situation after he fell into a coma on the spot, but according to the news brought back by Xiao He Liu Bang and others who stayed in Hangu Pass to deal with the aftermath, according to the Hangu Pass guard, there is a bandit in the valley who looks like the bandit leader Ji Xin, but he has been blurred by the flesh and blood of the Taiyi God Thunder.

Because there were many casualties among the merchants and pedestrians, it was impossible to distinguish which were the assassins found by the Ji brothers and which were innocent civilians, but a group of teenagers under Chen Xu died twelve people, seven guards, and seven horsemen, helpers, and maids who accompanied him, and more than fifty people were injured.

It took four days just to transport the dead and wounded and the carriages and goods in Hangu back.

Seven or eight days passed in the blink of an eye, and after successive funerals and busyness, the Qinghe Marquis Mansion finally quieted down, but Chen Xu finally couldn't insist on vomiting blood and falling into a coma again.

This news made Xianyang, which had just begun to calm down, rise again, Feng Quji, Zhao Wei and other important ministers of the court came to visit again, Fusu and the princes also came one after another, but Chen Xu, who was lying on the couch, was gray and dejected, and the entire Qinghe Marquis Mansion was even more gloomy and miserable and weeping.
