Chapter Seventy-Six: The King's Funeral
The hearse continued on its way surrounded by people, and the people who had been seeing off the king on the side of the road became part of the guard of honor, and they carried the hearse very close to it, and no one else was allowed to approach.
Princess Ah Li still pulled the corner of the national flag that had been torn out of a big hole and followed, her bare feet could not be coordinated with her booted feet, and she looked like a deep foot and a shallow foot.
Cangwu Jianguo looked back at her from time to time. She didn't look at anyone, but followed the horn with the flag in front of her.
At this moment, in the distance in front of the hearse, a large number of cavalrymen wearing national flag-colored cloaks stood in strict formation on the national highway, and the two ends extended into the grass on the side of the road, as if a thick city wall blocked the way of the hearse.
Of course, they did not come to mourn the king, but when they saw that the hearse had no intention of stopping, and that the crowd on both sides of the hearse had spread out into a stream of people as wide as they did, they rode their horses and galloped up, and the fighting birds and horses made a loud noise in the thick smoke and dust.
Jian Guo Cangwu stepped next to Ah Li, lifted her up, put her on the coffin covered with the national flag, and immediately wielded the heavy sword decorated on the head of the hearse, flew and jumped on the back of the horse pulling the hearse, and drove the hearse towards the enemy.
Princess Ah Li was lying on the coffin covered with the national flag, her face facing down, and her legs were constantly thrown up as the body shook violently.
"The time to die for the king is now!" General Hua Qian shouted, threw away the bright hat of the captain of the honor guard with a high ornament on his head, took off the bright helmet from the heads of the honor guards around him and buckled it to his head, drew his sword from the honor guard flag, and rushed towards the head horse of the hearse, one horse ahead of the head horse.
"Forward forward, forward, forward, we forward! The beautiful home in my heart is singing for me......"
The people sang loudly, and with the flood of hearses and soldiers, they rushed to the opponent as if they had been crushed, and they were crushed all the way through.
The scene of General Hua Qian holding his sword aloft, and the scene of the prison country driving a hearse and leading the crowd to rush towards his opponent was painted on the main wall of the Tree State Parliament, entitled "The Glory of the People", in this painting, Ah Li, lying on the coffin, was thrown high, as if flying with the national flag covered on the coffin.
This is a symbol of the rise of the tree country. The king died, but the revolution he carried out succeeded.
Shuguo has come out of a state of scattered sand and has become a great country.
This great nation is the mass of the people who protect the soul of the king and his daughter rushing to the opponent, and the king will be relieved that he has a spirit in the sky.
In fact, Ah Li had been lying on the national flag on the coffin, and she just didn't look up to see what was happening in front of her, following how the hearse was galloping, shaking, and jolting.
In the face of such a drastic change, is she not even a little curious? She doesn't want to face it? She trusts her protector? She's completely dead?
By the time the king's hearse arrived at the queen's family cemetery, there were already more than 100,000 people in the funeral procession.
It was a cemetery of a commoner family, and the tombs were a little crowded and untidy, but the queen's grave could be seen at a glance, and there were many flowers piled up there, many, many, and untidy.
Some of them have obviously been left out for a long time and have dried up, some of them seem to have been put up recently, and those flowers do not look like some precious flowers and plants, but the people who offer them put a large handful of flowers at one time.
There is a seated figure in the flowers, and if you don't look closely, you'll think he's a statue.
He was in his thirties, sitting motionless, quietly looking at the large group of people in front of him, neither the wary gaze nor the sense of surprise.
He seemed to know it was going to be like this, but he didn't want to say anything, so he just sat there and watched.
This person's name is Meijiao, and he is a member of the queen's clan and has always guarded the queen's tomb. Later, he became Ah Li's bodyguard, causing a big mess, but at this time he was completely ignored by the people.
Cangwu Jianguo walked to the queen's tomb, looked at the queen's tombstone, and spoke for a long time, "Your Majesty, you have been waiting for a long time." ”
The words of the warden caused a commotion, and the female officer behind him whispered, "This is inappropriate, it seems that the king died too late." ”
Cangwu Prison ignored the reactions around him, as if he was the only one standing in the queen's tomb.
"I know what His Majesty means, from the day you came here, what he wanted to do most was to come here to meet you, he lived another 56 days for the sake of the completely hopeless Shuguo, and launched a war against the whole country by himself."
"He rode his horse and sword in his hand, and fought from dawn till dusk, his sword broke, his armor shattered, and his hot blood flowed in this land you love, forever into the earth......
"Long live the King!" The crowd shouted.
"Do you hear that? Now, he is victorious, and in his last moments, I told him that I would send him to the queen at all costs"
"He resolutely refused, saying that it would cause another unnecessary strife, and perhaps death, and that it was the same wherever a person died, and that he had ordered me at the last moment of his life to bury him in the royal cemetery."
All of a sudden, there was a deathly silence.
"I'm saying this to him," cried Cangwu, "and I refuse!" Hear me before you die! Leave the tea! I refuse this order from you! ”
A lot of people started sobbing.
"Your Majesty, now, I have finally finished disobeying his orders and brought him to Her Majesty." Cangwu Jian Guo suppressed his voice, as if the queen was in front of him, "I assure you that in many years, there will be a great king in the great tree country who will accept the respect of the whole world in your place." She is also my daughter."
"Long live the princess!"
All of them let out an earth-shattering cry together.
Princess Ah Li still kept lying on the national flag covered with the coffin, her face was always facing down, and the national flag under her face was ** a large piece......
Since then, Princess Ah Li has not appeared in public for a long time, and the rumors about the prison country Cangwu intending to murder Princess Ah Li have always become a shadow in the hearts of the people of Shuguo.
