When General Shen passed away, Shen Yunxiao was fighting hard at the border.

A seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, the first time he led the troops, it was a bloody battle of Yuntong that shocked the government and the opposition.

"Originally, my father was gone, my mother and I were stumbling, and I should have been able to wait for me to come back, who would have thought that the casualties in that battle were really heavy, and Da Que did not please him, but my Dayan was also the end of the strong crossbow, but somehow, the news of the tragic victory came back to the capital, and it was spread that I was martyred."

Mrs. Shen had just experienced the pain of losing her husband, and suddenly heard that her only son had been martyred, and under the double blow, she finally couldn't afford to get sick.

By the time Shen Yunxiao led the Yanmen soldiers to return triumphantly, Mrs. Shen was already terminally ill, but she died in three or two days.

"I rushed back from Yanmen, but I couldn't even catch up with my parents' coffins, or His Majesty sent someone to bury and seal the coffin instead of me, and I only had time to see them buried in the ground."

Shen Yunxiao mentioned this matter now, seven points of clouds and light wind, and the remaining three points were faint melancholy.

Meng Jiao couldn't help but think about how happy the seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy should have been when he escaped death and returned triumphantly.

But when he was supposed to return to his hometown, he got the bad news that his parents died.

At that time, Shen Yunxiao, how helpless he should be, how much pain he should have, Meng Jiao could hardly imagine, and she couldn't bear to think about it.

"You... From now on, there will be me. ”

The little girl was too shy, and when she said this, she was embarrassed first.

Shen Yunxiao was stunned, came back to his senses with a smile in his eyebrows, and hugged the person in his arms tightly.

Yes, the suffering of the past has passed, and now, he still has the people in front of him.

When it was time to eat, Meng Jiao suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

According to Shen Yunxiao, when the Shen family's parents were buried, it should be after the news of his triumphant victory was transmitted back to the imperial city, and the emperor would order someone to go and bury him in the coffin.

So according to this, the emperor can wait for Shen Yunxiao to return and personally seal the coffins of the Shen family's parents.

There is no reason to rush to bury Shen Yunxiao before he returns.

After all, it was also winter, and it didn't make much of a difference.

"Brother Yun Xiao, your mother, is she in good health? Good for you? ”

Meng Jiao asked thoughtlessly, Shen Yunxiao was stunned, but he still said the truth.

"My mother was born in a farming family in the northwest, so she was naturally in good health. My mother treated me as much as she did to my father. ”

In Mrs. Shen's life, except for her parents and brothers, all her hearts fell on these two men.

A husband, a son, she exhausted her heart, but also enjoyed it.

Meng Jiao nodded detachedly, sure enough, there was a problem.

General Shen is old, and he has been fighting for a long time and has been sick for a long time, and if he dies at the end of his life, it is not too sad, and Mrs. Shen will not be grieved because her husband passed away peacefully.

Moreover, in addition to her husband, Mrs. Shen also has Shen Yunxiao, her only son, even if she is grieved and grieved, she will definitely hold on to wait for Shen Yunxiao to come back even if she takes her last breath.

It is impossible to die a few days before Shen Yunxiao enters Beijing.

In this way, I am afraid that the parents of the Shen family will be suspicious.

"Brother Yun Xiao, what I'm going to say next maybe... It will make you a little uncomfortable, and I think the death of your parents maybe... There is another secret. ”

After Meng Jiao finished saying this, the teacup that Shen Yunxiao had just picked up fell to the ground.

It took him a while to regain his voice.

"Gillian... You said... What the? ”

"I said, your parents, death is in doubt."

Shen Yun suddenly hugged Meng Jiao, who frowned slightly, but did not struggle.

Just quietly let him hold it, and after a while, Shen Yunxiao seemed to be relieved, his head rested on Meng Jiao's shoulder, and he let out a long sigh.

"Gillian... Tell us what you think. ”

Meng Jiao was caught off guard and smiled, Shen Yunyan still chose to believe her unconditionally and without a position.

Even if it sounds like this, it's really incredible.

"I didn't doubt it, everything is so reasonable, Old General Shen and his wife Qin Se and Ming have been in harmony for half a lifetime, Old General Shen died suddenly, Mrs. Shen was overly grieved and passed away, doesn't it sound seamless? However, the problem lies in this time, half a lifetime, they have been together for half a lifetime, and when General Shen died, he was close to the sixtieth birthday, and it was normal for people who had been sick for a long time. ”

Shen Yunxiao frowned, if Meng Jiao didn't mention it, no one would notice this anyway.

Indeed, at that time, even ordinary people were almost at the end of their lives.

What's more, it's a person like General Shen, who is fighting for half his life.

"What do you mean... Mother is far from grieving because of this kind of safe death? ”

"Yes, there is only one explanation, that is, General Shen did not die peacefully."

Although he didn't want to face this possibility, Shen Yunxiao had to admit that what Meng Jiao said was indeed more like the truth.

However, General Shen has been fighting horses for half his life and is loyal to the country, who can move him? Who would dare to destroy the Great Wall?

"But Gillian, if that's the case, my mother should have waited for me to come back, and shouldn't... You mean, the death of the mother, too... Doubts? ”

Shen Yunxiao had just said halfway through his words, and without Meng Jiao's reminder, he had already found out the truth about Mrs. Shen's death.

Meng Jiao could feel that Shen Yunxiao's hand holding her was trembling.

After a while, Meng Jiao raised her hand to hold Shen Yunxiao's still trembling hand, and silently accompanied him to think about it.

"If so... If so... Sealing the coffin before I come back can explain it, if my father and mother don't die safely, they must have left traces... But as long as the coffin is sealed, I will not be able to disturb the two of them, so that all of them can be hidden. ”

Shen Yunxiao is very smart, but he is just a fan of the previous authorities and has a preconceived idea.

Now that someone mentions it, he will naturally be able to quickly connect this series of things.

"Nowadays, there is only such a series of ways to explain everything in series, Brother Yun Xiao, the Shen family's affairs back then were not so simple."

Yes, it's not that simple.

What Shen Yunxiao is thinking about now is who can have such a big mind and such a vicious hand to shake the Great Wall of Old General Shen.

Besides, why did that person do it to the people of the Shen family, why didn't he solve it with Shen Yunxiao.

"Gillian, I might... I want to go to the Shen family's tomb once. ”

If you want to know what happened back then, the most obvious clue is the body of the second elder of the Shen family.

After so many years, even if the corpse is decomposed, it does not prevent the search for clues from above.

"I... I'm with you! ”

Meng Jiao thought for a while, jumped off the chair, and followed Shen Yunxiao's side.

In the past, Shen Yun was alone, Meng Jiao couldn't bear it, she wanted him to know that now he was not alone.

In any case, he still had her by his side.

Because this matter was so shocking, Shen Yunyu would not alarm others, and took Meng Jiao to sneak out of the capital in the dark while taking advantage of the night.

The tomb of the Shen family, located in the northwest of the suburbs of Beijing, happened to be across the water from the small Zhuangzi that Meng Jiao was trapped in.

"The night is dark, there is not necessarily anything unclean in it, Gillian, are you waiting for me here, or..."

"I'll go in with you, Brother Yun Xiao, if you talk about an ordinary cemetery, I won't dare to go in at this hour, but the Shen family's tomb is different."

"Why?"

"The Shen family is loyal and awe-inspiring, and after death, the heroic soul will definitely guard here, so I have nothing to fear."

The Shen family is loyal and patriotic, upright and clean-sleeved, even if he turns into a heroic soul, he is different from others.

Again... Shen Yunyan was by her side, and she was not afraid of anything.

Shen Yunxiao naturally understood the little girl's words, and the gloomy mood finally dissipated a little, took Meng Jiao's hand, and the two of them entered the Shen family's tomb in the dark.

Mrs. Shen and General Shen were husband and wife, and when Shen Yunxiao buried the two of them, they also deliberately chose to sleep in the same tomb and sleep together, which can be regarded as the kindness of the white-headed old man.

Nowadays, it happens to be convenient to open the coffin.

"Brother Yun Xiao, be careful."

Meng Jiao stood on the top of the tomb, watching Shen Yunxiao solemnly open the coffin, the coffin was a fine solid wood, Meng Jiao was really worried that Shen Yunxiao would bump and hurt.

Fortunately, there was no danger, and the wooden coffin was opened smoothly.

It is about a short period of time, or it may be the reason for the dryness of the feng shui treasure land, the faces of the second elder of the Shen family are very complete, and there is no imaginary decay at all.

"Gillian, I'll take you down, you can take a look, what's wrong."
