Chapter 70: Filthy
"This ...... No matter what the emperor thinks, Lord Sun's disrespect for the decree is the truth! This is called how the slave and maid can deal with the emperor! ”
After the shock, Mr. Wang was worried about his own life.
The emperor's temperament is uncertain, and he picks off people's heads when he stares, how should he deal with him if he goes back empty-handed?
"Come, come, quickly gather up Lord Sun's corpse, along with everything on the ground." The chief steward covered his nose with his sleeve, turned around and ordered the little chamberlain who came with him.
The little chamberlains were also afraid of being angry, although they were afraid, they also had the courage to tremble and come forward, and they wanted to clean up Sun Yu's body and the red and white things on the ground.
Sun Jie and Sun Qin were furious and pushed the waiter away.
"What are you doing! The people are gone, do you still want to make a fuss about his corpse! ”
When the Duchess of Dingguo saw this, she staggered and was about to get up, but she fell back to the ground because of her weak legs, and could only shout in a hoarse voice: "Don't move!" I see who dares to touch the corpse of my grandson! ”
With tears on her face, she asked in grief: "The man has already gone, and you refuse to let go of his corpse!" ”
"You want to touch my grandson's corpse unless you step on me!" Dingguo Gong's eyes were red, his voice was hoarse and trembling, and he stretched out his arms in front of the attendants, but his body was like a mountain, blocking everyone in Dingguo Mansion.
Looking at such a miserable family, why didn't Mr. Wang choke Sun Yu? It's just that he can't pay the errand, and he's afraid that his life will not be guaranteed.
"Grandpa Guo, there is no way to be a slave, you know the emperor's temper, if you really have a dragon nature, it is not something you and I can bear."
After thinking about it, the chief manager Wang discussed again: "Otherwise, if the slave and maid order someone to go back to the palace and return to the emperor, how about we obey the emperor's will in everything?" "If the emperor is gracious, it will also relieve his embarrassment, after all, he will not have any good fruit to eat.
Ding Guogong gritted his teeth and nodded: "In this case, there is the head of the Labor University." ”
The general manager of the king even said "I don't dare", and hurriedly turned around and ordered a small chamberlain to go back to the palace to ask the emperor's will.
The little chamberlain didn't dare to see the emperor, and he couldn't refuse, so he could only go with a sad face and look at death.
And they all waited in the courtyard in the cold.
I don't know when a light snow fell, and the light snow melted to the ground, turning the ground wet.
But everyone was reluctant to avoid it, and only the cries of the ladies could be heard in the courtyard, either low or high, or sobbing or heartbreaking.
The eldest aunt woke up and cried again when she saw her son's tragic condition, and the second aunt hugged her head and cried with Sun.
Qin Yining held her grandmother, her tears were like broken threads, and she couldn't stop.
The eldest cousin committed suicide for Mingzhi, isn't it an accusation against the faint king?
It's just that the concept of loyalty and patriotism in their bones is deep-rooted, and they can't say many things, and they don't dare to say them.
Don't say it, they just want to die, and if they say it, it becomes a sin.
Qin Yining didn't know what other people thought, but she was itching with hatred for the faint king.
She couldn't help but think of Qin Huaiyuan.
The eldest cousin used to be regarded as cooking oil with fire, and the flowers were brocade, so why not Qin Huaiyuan?
In troubled times, the most difficult thing to guess and resist is the unpredictable fate.
Half an hour later, there were mixed footsteps, but this time it was not only the chamberlain who had just asked questions, but a few Jin Wuwei who were walking in front of the emperor.
The chamberlain listened to the emperor's will, saluted with confidence, and said: "The emperor has an edict to order the slave and maid to explain to the Duke of Dingguo." ”
The chief steward nodded and motioned for the chamberlain to speak.
The crying in the courtyard faded, and everyone stared at the attendant who was delivering the message.
"The emperor said, 'Your Dingguo Mansion claims to be loyal, but you refuse to sacrifice a Sun Yu for the country's righteousness, and you can clearly sacrifice Sun Yu alone to calm the anger of the Great Zhou, maybe Xi Huacheng will withdraw his troops, and more than 10,000 prisoners will be released and return home, but Sun Yu only knows that he is majestic! Don't say that it was killed by a collision, it is a corpse that has been broken into thousands of pieces, and together with the corpse and the brain, it must be sent to the Great Zhou Shangguo intact! If anyone dares to stop him, he will be charged with treason! ”
The chamberlain's voice was high-pitched, but it also imitated the emperor's irritable tone vividly. It's just that his voice gets weaker and weaker the more he speaks. Because everyone was staring at him with cannibalistic eyes.
The chief manager waved his hand and ordered the chamberlain to retreat, gave the prince of the country a salute, and said in embarrassment: "Grandpa Guo, you are the head of the family, you have to think about it, the emperor's words have reached this point, and the slaves and maids must be taken away." Think about it, if the government can withstand the two big hats of 'treason' and 'disrespect'. Lord Sun is gone, but Grandpa Guo has other children and grandchildren! ”
Ding Guogong clenched his fists, his joints were white, and the blue tendons in his forehead were protruding, and he couldn't say a word.
But the ladies were already crying.
Jin Wuwei stepped forward, pushed away the fifth cousin and eighth cousin who still wanted to stop him, put the red and white things scattered on the ground into a brocade box, and worked together to carry Sun Yu's miserable body into a thin-skinned coffin that was temporarily prepared.
Seeing that he had finally finished his errand, the chief manager immediately arched his hand and left in a hurry with the people.
Ding Guogong slowly raised his head and muttered, "The sky is going to kill my Great Zhou." Suddenly, a mouthful of blood spurted out, his eyes rolled, and his tall body fell backwards.
"Grandfather!"
"Grandpa Guo!"
The scene suddenly became a mess.
There was such a big event in the Dingguo Mansion, and within two hours, the news spread all over Kyoto. The crowd was in an uproar, how many people lamented and were shocked, and how many soldiers were sad and angry beyond words.
Qin Huai got the news from afar and rushed over.
Qin Yining and Qin Huining were busy with the Sun family in the inner house asking the doctor to take care of the female dependents.
Don't say that the Duchess of Dingguo, the eldest aunt and the second aunt, and even the Duke of Dingguo all fell into a coma, and there was no one to make up their minds about the big and small affairs of the Dingguo Mansion for a while.
Qin Huaiyuan took Sun Jie and Sun Qin to erect the lintel in the front yard. A mourning hall was set up, and Sun Yu's clothes, shoes and socks were placed in the coffin, and people were also ordered to report the funeral, keep the spirit, burn paper, and cry the spirit, and the entire Dingguo Mansion was shrouded in a plain white and mourning.
At this time, the emperor and empress frowned dissatisfiedly when they saw Sun Yu's remnants and the little scarlet mixed with white in the brocade box.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean by Sun Yuanming? Isn't he disobedient to you? You told him to do something, and he risked his life to do it against you? The queen covered her mouth and nose with a champa and fanned the wind in disgust.
The emperor already had such doubts in his heart, and when the queen said it, his anger was even worse.
"I look at Sun Yuanming as a stupid reader! That's it, for now, I just hope to be able to pass the pass of the Great Zhou envoy and come to someone. ”
"The slave is here." Mr. Wang smiled and saluted.
The emperor said impatiently: "You, personally go and invite the envoys of the Great Zhou Dynasty to come, just say that I will invite you to a banquet, and then say that Sun Yu has already prepared here." ”
The chief steward hurriedly bowed and retreated.
The emperor wanted to use a corpse and half a box of heart-shattering things to appease the anger of the Great Zhou.
But when the envoy saw it, he took the case and angrily accused the emperor: "It is clearly a suspicion against the Empress Dowager of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if you want to eat it raw, the fresher the better, and the fresher the better, and the living person is slaughtered now to call it fresh, such a corpse is transported over, and it doesn't all become smelly?!" How do you call the Queen Mother to take it! ”
The emperor also knew this truth, so he could only laugh and persuade.
The envoy angrily brushed his sleeves away, and the body was not taken with him.
The emperor didn't dare to make a mistake in front of the envoys, and after the people left, he overturned the table and ordered the general manager of the king in a loud voice: "Throw Sun Yu into a mass grave!" I'm upset! ”
Mr. Wang's heart jumped, and he hurriedly lowered his head and retreated to do what he was told.
Fortunately, the general manager of Wang still has some humanity, although he left people in the mass grave, but he ordered the people he trusted to send a letter to the Given State Mansion, and asked them to clean up quickly, so as not to be bitten by wild wolves and wild dogs.
When Sun Jie and Sun Qin heard this, they couldn't help crying again, their eyes red with hatred beating their chests.
Qin Huaiyuan said tiredly: "No matter what, it is important to bring Yuan Ming back for burial first, and the rest must be considered in the long run." You are not small anymore, and many truths are also understood, the emperor is like this, and you are not just yourself, the Dingguo Mansion is a big family, and there can be no more mistakes. ”
"That's what my uncle said." Sun Jie wiped away his tears and said, "I'll take people to hurry up, Eighth Brother, you are guarding here." ”
"Okay." Sun Qin also wiped his face.
After Sun Jie left, Sun Qin gratefully saluted Qin Huai: "Today's big event, my fifth brother and I are already panicking, there is no one in charge at home, we don't know what to do, if it weren't for you, ......
"Hey." Qin Huaiyuan waved his hand, "It's all a family." ”
Sun Qin nodded movingly: "Yes." ”
Qin Huaiyuan sighed and advised: "You order to go down, tell everyone in the palace to control their mouths, there are some things that you can't think in your heart, and you can't say it in your mouth, the emperor is angry, once it spreads, it will be a disaster of death." ”
"Yes." Sun Qin pursed his lips and nodded.
Qin Huaiyuan patted Sun Qin's shoulder and said, "The king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die, this is the way to be a minister." ”
When Sun Qin heard this, he looked at the spirit flag that was blown by the cold wind, and tears welled up again.
Sun Jie hurriedly snatched Sun Yu's body back, and was finally able to be buried.
Qin Huaiyuan looked at Sun Yu in the coffin, and suddenly felt sad that his lips were dead and his teeth were cold, and the rabbit was dead and the fox was dead, thinking that he was talented when he was alive, but in the end he ended up like this, and he couldn't help but sigh.
As soon as the Sun family served the Duchess of Dingguo with medicine, the Duchess of Dingguo called Bao's mother to ask about the situation of the Duchess of Dingguo and the outer court.
Bao's mother has changed into a plain dress, with a white belt around her waist, and saluted: "Grandpa Guo, Miss Tang just showed it, saying that she was angry and angry, so she could only take medicine to slowly recuperate, and just now Grandpa Guo woke up, took medicine and fell asleep again." The uncle in the outer courtyard took care of the fifth and eighth masters, and the uncle was already buried. ”
"You said that Brother Ming'er's corpse leader is back?"
"Yes." Bao's mother was afraid that the Duchess of Dingguo would faint again, so she didn't dare to mention that she snatched people from the mouth of wild dogs and wild wolves from the mass grave.
The Duchess of Dingguo only thought that the emperor sent people back, and closed her eyes sadly.
Because of his death, Sun Yu was buried after only seven days.
These days, Qin Yining and Qin Huining have been following the Sun family to serve the Duchess of Dingguo.
If it weren't for the fact that there were still four days left to be Xiao Nian, the Sun family would not be willing to return to the Qin family.
But as a woman, the New Year is approaching, and she can't take root in her mother's family.
It's just that they didn't expect that as soon as the three of them entered the main hall of Cixiao Garden, they were complained by the old lady.
