Chapter 465: Homecoming

In the end, King Huainan's breath became weaker and weaker, and he could only say something in Prince Rui's ear in his voice.

After speaking, his already hanging hand completely drooped.

His eyes were completely closed.

But the blood did not stop flowing because of this, and still dripped down the ground along his hand.

Prince Rui saw that something was wrong with King Huainan, and immediately beckoned to the imperial doctor, "Imperial doctor!" Fast! Let's see what's wrong with my tenth uncle! ”

The imperial doctor checked the pulse of the king of Huainan and probed his nose.

In the end, he could only kneel down and said helplessly: "Your Majesty, Prince Rui, King Huainan... He died......"

The emperor looked at King Huainan lying on the bed with a solemn expression.

He patted Prince Rui on the shoulder, got up and said, "You send him back to the Huainan Palace, discuss the future with his family, and I will allocate silver taels from the imperial court, bury him according to the princely burden, and send soldiers to escort him to the imperial tomb in Beijing." ”

Prince Rui was very depressed, but he still nodded in response.

On the same day, Prince Rui sorted out the body of King Huainan, and found someone to comb King Huainan's hair and put on a clean robe and armor.

Then, he escorted the king of Huainan back to the palace of Huainan Wang.

Shangguan Xixi was still talking to his children, but when he heard the sound of mourning music coming from the door, he panicked.

She didn't care about the children either, and trotted all the way to the yard.

As soon as I walked to the gate of the front yard, I saw Prince Rui wearing a white robe, with a white cloth tied around his head, and a tablet in front of him.

He was surrounded by a crowd of people.

She knew most of those people who had been to Fuchu.

Among them are the prince's advisers, and there are also the prince's subordinates.

They were serious in the past, one by one with a sad face, and some of them whimpered, and the money and paper surrounded them.

Behind them, an inky coffin.

In addition, the people on the side of the street also gathered at the door.

In these years, although the king of Huainan was opposed to the emperor of the north.

But it is still good for the people of Huainan, and many local people remember his goodness.

Now he died on the battlefield in order to confront the Southern Plains Kingdom, which is even more admired by the people.

Seeing this scene, although Shangguan Xixi's heart was in a mess, as long as no one told her that it was her man lying in the coffin, she could continue to deceive herself like this.

It wasn't until Prince Rui approached that she saw that the tablet on the coffin was engraved with the tablet of King Yingfeng of Huainan, and she couldn't help but have swollen eyes and weak legs.

Fortunately, the maid on the side helped her in time so that she didn't fall to the ground.

Prince Rui walked up to Shangguan Xixi, knelt on one knee, bowed his head to Xixi and said, "Virtuous nephew Yingtuo, return home with the tenth uncle!" ”

Shangguan Xixi smiled bitterly a few times, looking around with blank eyes, only avoiding the coffin, "What? Home? Where's your tenth uncle? Why didn't I see him come home? You're not playing with me, are you? I'm telling you, this joke isn't funny at all, not at all! ”

Prince Rui: "Tenth aunt, tenth uncle... He fought for many days, and finally was surrounded by enemy troops and died for the people......"

Hearing this, Xixi only felt that her eyes and nose were sour, and tears burst out of her eyes.

She looked at the coffin that everyone had placed in the middle of the courtyard and trembled.

Xixi opened her mouth, but her lips trembled like words, and in the end she couldn't say anything.

She took a few steps and threw herself on the coffin, which was not yet covered, and she threw herself on it and looked at the man in the coffin.

Even at this time, the man is still heroic, with a dignified body, and the demeanor of a general who is invincible and sweeps thousands of armies!

It's just that the flesh on his chin rolls up.

She seemed to be able to imagine the man being surrounded by enemy troops on a tall horse with a long-handled axe in his hand, slashed in the jaw by the enemy's weapon, and stabbed in the body by countless feathered arrows.

Then, gradually, he collapsed in a sea of corpses.

Xixi trembled and said, "Prince Rui, you must be joking with me, right?" You see that your tenth uncle is so energetic, how can he die? He must have been tired from the war and wanted to rest. ”

"He told me that he went to war as a teenager and that he was born for the battlefield all his life, and I advised him not to fight anymore at an old age, but he refused to listen to me."

"You say there are so many bad people in this world, why is he gone? He has been bad for so many years, and now he is finally fighting for the country, but he is gone, how can he call me a woman to drag her family and mouth? How do you live......"

At this moment, a pair of children and Li'er gathered around her, shouting and crying "Daddy, Daddy".

The concubines and the children next to them also knelt in the courtyard, and the cry resounded throughout the courtyard.

Prince Rui: "Aunt Ten, Uncle Ten can't rest assured that you and the children will be relieved before he dies, so you must take the children to persevere." ”

"......" Xixi was slightly stunned, turned her face sideways and asked Prince Rui, "What else does he say besides this?" ”

Prince Rui: "Uncle Ten also said... It is true that he loves his former sister-in-law, and it is also true that he loves you, although you are not the person he loved at the beginning, but the person he loves the most. ”

Born in troubled times, some people seem to be destined to die to know who to love.

Hearing this, Xixi only felt that her heart was trembling.

When she first married him, she knew he didn't love her.

After so many years of ups and downs, they have a pair of lovely children.

She felt that they were already the closest relatives to each other, and it didn't matter if they loved each other or not.

But since he quarreled with her over the pair of ginkgo hairpins, she realized that love is still so-called.

If he loved her, at least she wouldn't lose so badly and lose so badly.

At least he'll take into account her feelings and won't be so resolute.

But she never expected to see him in a coffin when they met again.

Even the love she had been looking forward to was what he asked others to pass on to her before he died.

Xixi raised her hand and lay on the coffin tightly, looking deeply at the man lying in the coffin with phoenix eyes.

"I don't believe it......," Xixi shook her head sadly, and she said to the man in the coffin, "Yingfeng, you bastard, you have been arguing with me for months, and you have never stopped in my main courtyard. ”

"Now that people say it's gone, it's gone, what's the use of letting people casually bring me a message? Do you think I'm going to believe it? If you have the ability to say it yourself, I will believe ......"

Xixi cried breathlessly, "You wake me up, I don't want to know this from other people's mouths, I have to listen to you yourself, woo woo woo ......"

Prince Rui: "Uncle Ten quarreled with you before, in fact, part of it was because of Nanyuan Kingdom, he was afraid to face you, and he didn't know how to face you. ”

Xixi had already cried into tears, and she couldn't listen to anything Prince Rui said.

The man in the coffin is brave and strategic, capable of writing and martial arts, he is brave on the battlefield, and he has won countless battles, she really can't accept the fact that he is gone.
