Chapter 220: Leaves Fall Back to the Roots
General Han looked at his cousin, with gray hair, wrapped in a forehead, a person in his fifties, who lost his son and husband one after another, and looked like a sixty-year-old woman.
People who have eaten fasting and chanted Buddha for half their lives, with fierce expressions, only feel ridiculous and pitiful.
The Bozhou army is already surnamed Tu, no longer surnamed Liu, nor surnamed Han, Mrs. Han herself has to rely on people's snorts, who can be destroyed?
By whom?
Rely on the third apprentice that uncle?
Or does it depend on Liu Biao's nephew?
These words are for him to hear, and not for him.
General Han closed his eyes, feeling sad in his heart.
Thinking of last year's Bozhou incident, it has only been a year of hard work.
The Bozhou army expanded rapidly, occupying two counties, and also divided Bozhou with four other marshals.
The scenery of Liu and Han seems to be still in front of them, but they are all dreamlike and not real.
Above the mourning hall.
The third apprentice talked to Liu Biao about Marshal Liu's funeral.
"Father-in-law, I have always been thinking about going back to Chuzhou to send back to the funeral, and I once pointed to the slope opposite the blessed land of General Tang to speak, and I don't want to say a prophecy."
Disciple San sighed.
Who would have thought that Marshal Liu would pass by in half a month with a joke.
It seems to be an omen, which made Liu Yuan choose a blessed land.
Liu Biao was also very embarrassed.
Marshal Liu is a native of Chuzhou, but his parents' generation moved to Bozhou, and the cemetery of his parents and brothers is outside Bozhou.
If you send it back to the ancestral land of Bozhou, you must first recapture Bozhou, otherwise there is a Marshal Sun, and I don't know what will happen.
If you are buried in Chuzhou, it is much more convenient.
My uncle did say that he wanted to return to his roots.
"Otherwise, ask the aunt? Let the aunt take the idea"
Liu Biao thought for a while.
He does not have a deep relationship with his cousins, but he is often taken care of by Mrs. Han, an uncle, and respects him quite a lot.
There is no objection to the three self-esteem.
He is just an uncle, and Marshal Liu's posthumous affairs are naturally decided by the Liu family themselves.
Liu Biao didn't want to make up his mind, so it was reasonable for Mrs. Han to call the shots.
The two went directly to the inner courtyard, intending to ask to see Mrs. Han.
As soon as the two entered the courtyard, they saw Liu San coming out of Mrs. Han's room.
Seeing the third apprentice, Liu San was trembling, didn't say hello, and immediately turned around and entered the house.
It's not strange to see it.
I don't know who was chattering in front of Liu San, scaring him, no longer having the previous self-defeating recklessness, but like a frightened bird.
In this way, it saved the disciples a lot of things, but it also made people helpless.
When people who didn't know saw it, they thought that the third disciple was bullying him.
Liu San didn't pretend, he was really scared, and when he saw the house, he cried: "The third mother is here and Liu Biao" The last half of the sentence is gritted his teeth.
He didn't dare to hate the third disciple, so he was angry with Liu Biao, thinking that this cousin was eating inside and out.
If it weren't for this cousin's collusion with the third apprentice, he wouldn't have forced his second brother away.
Now that Lingshui has turned the sky upside down, he, Marshal Liu, is like the prince of the previous dynasty, and has become a "thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh" of the third apprentice, but he has to endure the humiliation and bear the burden and save his life.
Mrs. Han held the hand of the Buddha beads for a moment, waved her hand to her son, and let him enter the warm pavilion.
She was scared too.
I am afraid that the Han family will fall into the well and harm the young son.
As for the character of the third apprentice, she saw it in her eyes, and she didn't think that he would not be able to tolerate the reckless and ignorant young son.
But if the third disciple does not have this mind, what about the subordinates of the third disciple?
The Liu family has children and grandchildren, and the Chuzhou army has the worries of the Liu family, and it can't completely belong to the third apprentice.
Yesterday, Liu stared at her husband without bending, eager to tie her husband to the waist of her trousers, for fear of being harmed.
When Mrs. Han heard this, she sneered in her heart.
Today it's my turn, I don't dare to let my young son leave my eyes, all kinds of tastes, it's really sour.
At this time, there is already a servant.
"Madam, my aunt is here, my nephew is here"
Mrs. Han nodded: "Please let them in!" ”
The servant went down in response, and then picked up the curtain and led the third apprentice and Liu Biao in.
"Mother-in-law!"
"Uncle!"
The two bowed.
Mrs. Han's eyes fell on the filial piety stick in Liu Biao's hand, and she choked up: "Fortunately, with you, you can make your uncle not lose his dignity after his death."
Liu Biao glanced at the inner room and said, "The nephew is just acting on behalf of the third brother, the third brother is filial piety, serving the uncle, but it is not good not to show up."
Mrs. Han's expression froze and she looked at the third apprentice.
The third disciple also nodded and said: "The father-in-law has a son, so there is no reason for the brothers to come forward all the time, and it is okay at other times, on the day of the spirit, the son must come out."
Otherwise, in the eyes of the old people of the Chuzhou army, he would be suspicious.
Don't say it's Liu San, even if Liu Er doesn't leave, he will keep it, and he won't be able to tolerate an ignorant Liu San?
Liu Er took away 7,000 men, but there were still thousands of people in Quyang from the Bozhou army.
Mrs. Han nodded slowly: "That's natural, the old body will also send the old man on this last journey." ”
"Mother-in-law, when I went to Chuzhou a few days ago, my father-in-law once had the intention of returning to his roots, did he fulfill his father-in-law's wish and choose a blessed land for his father-in-law in Chushan?"
Three in vain.
"Chushan"
Mrs. Han nodded and said, "Uncle has a heart, so I will follow the master's wishes, and the master has been chattering a few times."
She was in the inner house, but she was not blind, and she paused and said, "Chuzhou is mourning?" ”
"Well, I arrived in the afternoon, but because my mother-in-law was recuperating, I didn't let them come."
"Huo Bao is here too?"
Mrs. Han had mixed feelings.
The last time she saw Huo Bao, she also had the idea of letting the Liu family adopt her as an adopted son, but she actually wanted to stay as a proton and contain the Chuzhou army.
Who would have thought that the Chuzhou army was unstoppable, not to mention taking the Sanzhou Mansion of Huainan Province, but also crossing the river to get Jinling.
Even if her husband never forgot Huai Nance before his death, he didn't dare to think like this.
Looking away, Huo Wu, a butcher, is actually a real hero in troubled times.
Huo Bao is a good young master of the Chuzhou Army, where would he like to be his adopted son?
The death of her husband was said to be the death of an old illness, but those close to her knew that they were jealous and angry after hearing the news that the Chuzhou army had won Jinling.
The husband is also a prominent person, and it is sad and ridiculous that he died like this.
Time is also fate.
Mrs. Han resigned herself to her fate.
She doesn't want to struggle, she just wants to protect the young daughter and granddaughter, as for the second son who ran away, there is no filial piety, let him go: "It's a good boy, it's rare for him to come over, let the Liu family take good care of it, don't treat it badly"
Tu San nodded in response, and asked Mrs. Han a few more words about her daily life and diet before going down with Liu Biao.
Quyang County to Chushan, seventy or eighty miles.
That is, the side is set, and the third disciple will not be delayed, and he will arrange for people to go to Chushan.
Liu Biao was going to take people there in person, but was dissuaded by the disciples.
The funeral is a big day, if Liu San is not appropriate at that time, Liu Biao, a nephew, is still needed.
Liu Biao had no choice but to invite an uncle to come forward and entrust the matter of the acupoint.
The third disciple hesitated between Chen Yi and Jiang Ping.
Thinking of Huo Bao, Shui Jin and others who came over today, he still called Jiang Ping over.
"Such a big event, when I personally went to Kelingshui, the situation is complicated, I can't move lightly, so I can only entrust it to you!"
"Third master, rest assured, I will do it properly, and the circle will be complete."
Jiang Ping replied happily.
This represents the errand of the third apprentice, why doesn't he go, and let Chen Yi go?
As for the few people who were mourned by the Chuzhou army, Jiang Ping couldn't take care of the grievances in the past.
He only knew that the third apprentice was more and more reusing Chen Yi's uncle and nephew.
If he doesn't show his face again, he will be replaced by Chen Yisa.
Now that thick burials are commonplace, there are as long as the days of the soul after death.
Three days and seven days are common, and there are many people who stop for three or seven days, five sevens, and even seven to mourn.
It's just that the Bozhou army still has to go north, and it is impossible to delay for a month and a half for Marshal Liu's funeral.
and mourning according to the seven-day ordinance.
Today is the fourth day of the ninth month, and the mourning day is the seventh day of the first month.
Time is running out.
Jiang Ping and the Liu family, so they took Mr. Feng Shui and five hundred soldiers and set off overnight to go to Chuzhou.
