Jiang Wei first put a stick of incense in front of Guan Yu's spiritual seat, kowtowed respectfully three times, and said silently in his heart:

"If it weren't for the prince sacrificing his life to resist the enemy, I am afraid that we would all suffer a catastrophe...... Since you have received great grace, the boy swears here, your unfulfilled ambition has its own inheritance, and please have a spirit in the sky, protect us and others to crusade against the Han thieves as soon as possible, and restore the Han family! ”

After the incense was finished, he walked in front of Guan Ping and Guan Xing, and comforted: "Although the prince and the marquis have passed away, the Dan heart will last forever, and the two brothers will mourn and change on the Wanwang Festival. ”

When Guan Xing saw the arrival of the righteous brother, he got up and hugged him tightly, although he didn't say a word, his eyes overflowed with tears.

Guan Ping, who is the eldest son, returned the salute and said abruptly:

"Boyo, don't you know, as a son of man, but I can't even preserve my father's body, how can I not only be unfilial, but also incompetent! It's hard for you to feel like that......"

During the Qin and Han dynasties, the deceased was still alive in another world, and as long as the descendants continued to worship incense, the ancestors could enjoy eternal happiness.

Funerals at that time were extremely complicated. Just talking about the pre-funeral ceremony, it includes several procedures such as conjuring spirits, bathing and eating, large and small, crying and funeral mortuary, etc., except for filial sons and grandchildren, who would be willing to do these tedious and obscure things for an irrelevant person?

Guan Ping, as Guan Yu's eldest son, could not deal with these aftermath matters for his father after his father's death, and his self-blame can naturally be imagined.

Jiang Wei accompanied him to tears: "The prince is a hero who stands up to the sky, and the younger brother has also received many teachings from him, and he empathizes with the two brothers. ”

He suddenly thought that in history, Guan Yu was killed in Eastern Wu, and Sun Quan was uneasy and kind, so he sent Guan Yu's head to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao finally buried him with a generous gift.

Therefore, after a slight pause, he said:

"I heard that Cao Cao respected the prince as a man and was buried in Luoyang with the gift of a prince. Luoyang is the capital of the Han Dynasty, and it should be worthy of the identity and ambition of the prince. ”

Guan Ping and Guan Xing heard this, their faces eased slightly, but the sadness was still there.

Jiang Wei was worried and sad, and if he continued like this, he was afraid that he would hurt his body, and the matter had come to this point, so he simply became excited.

He took a deep breath and said:

"Now that we know where the tomb of the prince and marquis is, instead of being sad here, why don't we practice the art of war and martial arts diligently, and assist the lord and the horse? After his northern expedition to the Central Plains, we will wait for the Han family to pay tribute to the prince again, isn't this the right way? ”

When Guan Ping heard this, his face changed several times, and he finally let out a long breath, and said with his head bowed: "Yes, only in this way is the right way!" ”

The two brothers were a little uplifted, and asked about Jiang Wei's situation after separation.

Jiang Wei had the intention to enlighten the two, so he picked up some easy things to talk about during the journey.

The three of them talked for a while, but they never saw the silver screen. Jiang Wei was slightly worried, and couldn't help asking, "Why isn't the third sister here?" ”

Guan Xing sighed and said: "The red rabbit horse has been in Shu for more than a month, it was originally good, but for some reason, ten days ago, it suddenly began to stop drinking or eating, and the third sister has been taking care of the stable for the past few days. ”

After a pause, he said: "Boyo, you came just in time, Chitu is kind to you, and I ask you to go and investigate." ”

Jiang Wei nodded, asked for directions, and after a few words of relief, he walked towards the stable.

The structure of the dwellings in the Han Dynasty was largely the same, and the stables were usually located in the left-hand corner of the mansion and were not difficult to find.

Jiang Wei walked around, and in a few moments, he could smell the peculiar smell of the stable.

The stable was brightly lit, and he stepped in quietly, and saw that the red rabbit horse was lying quietly on the side of the stable, with tears in his eyes, and he stood still.

And Guan Yinping, who hadn't seen him for a long time, turned his back to the door, squatting on the side of the red rabbit horse, and couldn't stop crying.

Jiang Wei sighed softly, stepped into the stable, squatted down, and patted Chitu's huge horse head.

One person and one horse finally had a relationship on the north bank of the water that day, and after the originally motionless Red Rabbit Horse recognized the person, he rubbed Jiang Wei's palm with his nose to greet him.

Guan Yinping also saw him coming, and his tears suddenly fell like beads with broken threads.

"Third brother, you... You're back......"

Jiang Wei looked over, but saw that it had only been more than a month, Guan Yinping was already pink and haggard, and he was so thin that he almost lost his original shape, and at this moment, it was pear blossoms with rain, his eyes were red and swollen, and he looked even more pitiful.

Feeling pity, he took a handkerchief from his bosom and handed it to him.

Guan Yinping sobbed and wiped it, and after a long while, he stabilized his emotions and choked up:

"The red rabbit horse did not see his father for a month, and even began a hunger strike. Today is the tenth day, and if you don't take another bite, I'm afraid it will be difficult to support it...... Third brother, the red rabbit horse obeys your discipline, you can quickly let it eat some. ”

Speaking of the second half of the sentence, it has already taken on a begging tone.

Jiang Wei bowed his head and said, "I'll try." ”

He lowered his body, rubbed Chitu's neck lightly, and at the same time leaned down beside Chitu's ear, and said softly: "Brother Chitu, but you miss the prince and don't want to live in the world?" ”

The red rabbit horse neighed, as if in response.

Jiang Wei comforted and said: "Lao Ji is in the bush, his ambition is thousands of miles, and the martyr is in his twilight years, and his heart is strong. Although the prince died, the ambition of Kuang Fu Han family was still passed down by descendants. If my brother lives and dies, will he live up to his ambition? ”

After speaking, he took a bunch of fresh and tender alfalfa grass to the red rabbit horse's mouth and motioned for it to take a bite.

Unexpectedly, the red rabbit horse closed his eyes and moved his nose to the side, but he didn't even want to smell more.

Only then did Jiang Wei know that the red rabbit horse was attached to the old master and was bent on death.

He turned to Guan Yinping and said with relief: "The prince and the marquis are thin and cloudy, and the heart and courage are shining, such heroes, in the sky and on the earth, I am afraid that there is no one who can compare." If the confidant dies, the red rabbit is psychic, and he must be looking forward to reuniting with the prince as soon as possible. Everyone has their own ambitions, why should the third sister be worried, it is better to fulfill the ambition of Brother Chitu, and it will become a good story. ”

When Guan Yinping heard this, he bit his lower lip tightly, but the tears that had been stopped slightly slipped down again.

Jiang Wei leaned on the back of Chitu's ear again, and said softly but firmly:

"Brother Chitu, you can go with peace of mind. The younger brother swears here, one day, he will bury his brother's bones on the side of the tomb of the king, and may the brother be able to follow the prince in heaven and earth forever. ”

The red rabbit horse suddenly opened his eyes, and the big horse's eyes were stunned and shed tears.

Jiang Wei rubbed it a few more times, and the red rabbit suddenly looked at the north, raised his head and hissed, and fell to the ground and died.

Guan Yinping couldn't control it anymore, covered his mouth with his hands, his chest rose and fell violently, and when he sobbed, even his breathing became intermittent.

Jiang Wei knew that her emotions were on the verge of collapse.

The woman in front of her who cried into tears, after escaping from Gangneung, went around and around, and finally rescued her father after a thousand dangers......

is different from Guan Ping and Guan Xing, after all, the two of them are men with strong minds, men have the ambitions of men, if the persuasion is decent, Guan Yu's death will inspire them to rise up and become real men who stand up to the sky and the earth-

But Guan Yinping is only a woman who is only eight years old after all, and his family and father are all he relies on.

From loss to gain, to gain and loss, there are not many people in the world who can withstand such ups and downs.

Guan Yu died, and even the red rabbit horse that carried the thoughts of his father also disappeared, how can a weak woman bear such a heavy weight in life?

Jiang Wei thought of this, and suddenly felt an irrepressible distress, and without hesitation, he stretched out his arms and hugged Guan Yinping tightly into his arms.

The man is sad and sad, and needs to be comforted and encouraged by others.

Women are sad and sad, and sometimes, they just need a shoulder and a support.

Guan Yinping only felt that the sad grievances of these days were suddenly understood, so he fell on Jiang Wei's chest and cried.

The warm fragrant nephrite was in his arms, but Jiang Wei had no thoughts in his heart, and only said silently:

"Although the prince is gone, you still have me and my two brothers...... From now on, I will not teach you to suffer any more grievances! ”

******

Finally appeased Guan Yinping, Jiang Wei called Guan Ping, Guan Xing and Liao Hua to tell Chitu about his deathbed. Naturally, everyone couldn't help but sigh.

Guan Ping immediately summoned his subordinates, packed up the firewood, and cremated the body of Chitu in the courtyard.

Looking at the raging fire, Guan Ping was excited, and suddenly pulled out the treasure knife "Ten Thousand People" handed down by Guan Yu in the box, held it high in the air, and shouted:

"One day, I, Guan Ping, will plant the banner of the Han family all over Luoyang City!"

Inspired by him, Guan Xing, Jiang Wei, and Liao Hua all drew their swords out of their sheaths and shouted in unison:

"We will definitely plant the banner of the Han family all over Luoyang City!"

If they called three times in a row, put the knife into the sheath, and then looked back and forth, the sad look on the faces of the Guan brothers was greatly reduced, and they were full of perseverance that longed to inherit their father's will.

It took a lot of time to dispose of the bones of the red rabbit, and before I knew it, it was time.

The brothers reunited after a long absence, and they had a lot to say to each other, but Jiang Wei saw that the two brothers had new sustenance, and Guan Yinping recovered a lot after crying, and suddenly there was no more concern in his heart.

He thought of his mother, so he said goodbye to everyone and left.
