Chapter 443: Finding the Body
"Xiao Su Niang is still so young, she can't do without her mother at all!"
Wei Bowen looked anxious and persuaded him.
Qiao Xian even said: "The matter of the wreath last time has just come to an eyebrow, and now General Wu is also investigating who leaked the whereabouts of that time, how can you do it if you are not there." ”
Yes, Tong Shuangxi has many reasons not to go, but there is a voice in her heart that has been persuading her.
"I don't want to leave regrets."
Choked up and said this, Tong Shuangxi didn't look over.
Whether it is life or death, Tong Shuangxi always has a result.
She didn't want others to see her vulnerability, and she was afraid that the persistence in her heart would collapse in an instant, and then fall into a place of no return.
Qiao Xian, Wei Bowen, and Wang Pang were all silent.
"Grandma, go and go, I'll go with you!"
Wang Pang scolded in a low voice, and then said.
Qiao Xian and Wei Bowen didn't think about it: "Let's go with you." ”
Tong Shuangxi wiped his tears, and then said to Qiao Xian and Wei Bowen: "You both have just entered the Hanlin Academy, and it is the time when it is critical, so let Brother Wang accompany me on a trip." ”
"Xiaoxi is right, the two of you will stay in the capital and take care of the family, if you find out which mongrel did the lack of morality, you will kick that person a few times for my Wang Fat, Xiaoxi, you can rest assured that you will hand it over to me!"
Wang Pang also agreed with Tong Shuangxi's words.
Qiao Xian and Wei Bowen wanted to say something more, but they were interrupted by Qian San, who came over in a hurry.
I saw Qian San's face full of sadness, and when he looked at Tong Shuangxi, he couldn't hide his guilt and pity: "Master Pei's body has been found." ”
With a bang, Tong Shuangxi only felt that her eyes were hazy, and her ears couldn't hear any sound as if she was deaf, and she only had one thing in her head, Pei Shu was real...... He's dead.
When she woke up, Tong Shuangxi was already in her room, and Mrs. Wang and the third daughter-in-law of Qian were guarding her bed with red eyes.
"Where's Brother Wang?"
As soon as Tong Shuangxi opened his eyes, he struggled to sit up, and then asked his aunt.
Qiao Xian, who had been guarding outside the house, hurriedly pushed the door in when they heard the movement.
"How is Pei Shu's body now?"
Tong Shuangxi looked around, and then asked Qian San and said.
Qian San said in a hoarse voice: "General Wu originally planned to transport it back to the capital, but the weather was too hot, and he was afraid that the corpse would rot before it arrived in the capital, so he planned to bury it over there." ”
After listening to Qian San's words, Tong Shuangxi nodded indifferently, and then said, "General Wu did the right thing!" ”
Then he said to Wang Fat: "I'll hug Xiao Su Niang, let's set off now." ”
After saying this, without waiting for anything to be said by the people in the house, he got up and prepared to put on his shoes.
"Where are you going now? Do you want to bring a little vegetarian girl? ”
At this moment, Mrs. Wu's voice sounded outside the house, and then Mrs. Wu and General Wu Xu walked into the house together.
As soon as Mrs. Wu saw Tong Shuangxi's bloodless face, tears couldn't help but fall.
"Xiao Su Niang hasn't seen her father yet, so I have to let her meet her!"
Looking at Mrs. Wu's gentle face, Tong Shuangxi felt sour in his heart, and said with the grief in his heart.
Mrs. Wu choked up and wiped her tears for Tong Shuangxi.
"Xiaoxi, it will take at least a month to get from here to the northwest, not to mention the bumps in the road of your mother and daughter, it is a small technique...... He...... He can't wait! ”
In August and September, even if it is placed among the ice cubes every day, the corpse will rot.
How could Tong Shuangxi not understand this kind of truth, but she couldn't convince herself to admit Pei Shu's death like this.
"What do you say...... What am I going to do...... What can I do...... You teach me...... Teach me ......"
Tong Shuangxi cried bitterly.
The people in the room couldn't help but reddened their eyes even when Wu Xu looked at Tong Shuangxi like this.
Just then, there was a commotion outside the house.
"Go see who it is?"
Wu Xu forcibly endured the grief and indignation in his heart and said to Qian San who was not far away.
Qian San hurriedly wiped the corners of his eyes, and then walked out of the house.
"It's from the Pei family."
After a while, Qian San came over with a dark face and said.
The Pei family often came to Tong Shuangxi's house to make trouble, and Wu Xu naturally knew about it, only to see him turn around sharply, and walked towards the outside of the house, Qian San and Qiao Xian followed suit.
On the second day, the news that Pei Xu was personally broken by General Wu Da quickly spread throughout the capital, and even the Son of Heaven asked the personal eunuch around him if there was such a thing.
Such a thing is naturally not a good thing for the first general of the Celestial Empire, after all, the Pei family ancestor has also produced several first-class masters.
In the end, the Son of Heaven reprimanded Wu Xu in the court, and then punished Wu Xu for one year, and this matter is considered to be in the past.
Even the emperor exposed the past so lightly, and the Pei family was even more helpless, especially Pei Xu, who could only swallow this breath in his stomach.
Since then, the Pei family no longer dared to go up to the gate of Tong Shuangxi's family easily, even when Pei Shu was buried, only Mrs. Pei took Pei Jiaoer to cry behind her.
In the end, Tong Shuangxi could only take out a dress that Pei Shu wore on weekdays and build a clothed mound, which was counted as Pei Shu's cemetery in the capital.
With a clear memory, Tong Shuangxi drew a portrait of Pei Shu when he first saw Liu Xiaogong in Liuli Village, and then followed the master who carved the inscription for half a month, and finally engraved the Pei Shu on the tombstone exactly on the portrait.
"Little Su Niang, this is your father."
"Your father looks much better than your mother, and when my mother saw him for the first time, she thought it was a waste for a little father-in-law to look like this......
"Little Su Niang, you must look more like your father, so that your mother can ...... when she sees you in the future!"
Every time he said this, Tong Shuangxi burst into tears.
Pei Shu's title was finally retained, Wu Xu personally entered the palace to ask the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven thought that Tong Shuangxi's mother and daughter were pitiful, so he decreed that this title could be reserved for Pei Su's future children and grandchildren to inherit.
Three months after Pei Shu's burial, Wu Xu finally found out who had leaked their actions that day.
Although the facts of the case were not revealed to the world, Concubine Chen was immediately sent to the cold palace, and the Chen family's father and son and the Chen family were all imprisoned for using military funds for private purposes.
In the end, the father and son of the Chen family were beheaded, and the adult men of the Chen family were conscripted into the army, and the women and children were sent to the border cold areas to be slaves for generations.
And the last wreath incident was found out to be done by the conspiracy between Concubine Wu's family and the Wei family, although the Son of Heaven intended to protect Concubine Wu's family, but he couldn't bear Wu Xu's continuous twists and turns, and finally could only punish them.
