Chapter Ninety-Four: Obituary
On the day the second master of the Wen family arrived in Lingxian, it was a sunny day in the morning, and everyone started to move forward early. When the group reached a wooded area, the sky suddenly changed. For a while, the clouds were thick, and when the heavy rain came, it was only half a cup of tea. The forest was damp and fearful of lightning strikes, so the group did not dare to stay for a long time, so they hurriedly moved forward to find a place to take shelter while the rain was slightly lighter.
As if lucky, I turned over the forest and saw a farm in the distance, which covered a huge area. Second Master Wen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and shouted, "Everyone is speeding up, let's go to Zhuangzi more." ”
The group hurriedly took refuge in the nearest farm. I was still worried that the owner of the farm would not take me in, but I didn't expect the owner of the farm to be hospitable, and I heard that they were returning to their hometowns and provinces, and they were entertained with good wine and food. The group traveled for half a month, although the silver taels were enough, but the inn was always not as comfortable as at home.
The little young master of the Wen family, Wen Qianli had been impatient for a long time, and he was clamoring to go back along the way, but the nurse who followed him coaxed and coaxed, so he wilted and didn't speak. When I arrived in Zhuangzi, the living conditions were worse than the inn, but the food was fresh and wild. In the evening, when the rain gradually subsided, the owner brought out the old wine and invited everyone to drink together, and everyone was happy to drink more.
In the middle of the night, the dog in the village suddenly barked wildly. It's especially oozing in the dark night. Dozens of bandits attacked the farm. The people in the village were defenseless, and after the bandits broke in, it was like chopping melons and vegetables, and they were fatal. Several people in the village who were still smiling and laughing during the day suddenly turned into deadly ghosts. What escaped after the catastrophe was just a small steward of the Wen family. He caught a cold at night, didn't dare to drink, hid in the hut when the dog barked, and looked at the red-eyed demon outside the door, only to feel as if he had fallen into a nightmare that he would never wake up. The chief steward, who had been viciously reprimanding them during the day, was stabbed in his throat, and bright red blood splattered out, and two drops were dripped on the door of the hut. The strong smell of blood made him want to vomit, but he couldn't make any movement, and his eyes were red.
The bandits came in a hurry, and they went even faster. After a short time, a cartload of goods was carried out, and he mingled among the cadres, and then hid in the woods. Looking at it from a distance, the farm caught fire at some point, and it burned for most of the night. Hundreds of lives, no bones remained.
In June, the emperor was going to move to the Lushan Palace for summer vacation, and the entourage was confirmed. Banxia's family has to follow along.
As soon as the holy decree arrived, Banxia began to clean up. When I was packing my things, I felt like I was moving, and the two children had a lot of things, from food and clothing, to use, and everything had to be considered. Then in those places of the palace, the mountains and forests are lush, and I am afraid of small insects, so Banxia prepared sachets. The people who bring it should also be extra careful, after all, the people who come and go there are all dignitaries, and if you don't pay attention to it, you may offend, Banxia also conducted emergency training for them, and you can't lose the face of Master Taifu if you say anything.
The two children were looking for what they wanted to bring, "Mother, can you bring Yuanyuan." ”
Yuanyuan is the headlamp that Gan Sui won back for her during the Lantern Festival, which is more than a meter high. "No, it's too big to carry."
"Then I'll take it myself."
You take it, and you are not as tall as the lampholder. "Well, if you can take it, your mother will allow you to take it."
Yu Huai's happy fart ran over, and the two little fat hands couldn't hold the handle under the lamp holder. I used the strength of the milk and pulled it up hard. didn't move at all, and then began to wrinkle the little chubby face and play tricks: "Mother's ......"
"No, Yuanyuan just wants to stay at home and doesn't want to play with Yu Huai."
"Okay then." Yu Huai leaned to Yuanyuan again and said, "Then you have to be obedient at home, I will miss you." This is what Gan Sui would say to him every day when he went out, and now he began to tell it to others.
"Is there anything you'd like to bring?"
"I want to bring that skirt with small flowers, a skirt with little butterflies, and a golden skirt...... "Well, then you move all the wardrobes."
"No, you can only choose your favorite, choose ten."
"But the streamers like it so much......"
"But the car is only so big, and when you put down the car, you can't sit down with your mother. Does the streamer want a skirt, or do you want a mother? ”
The streamer glanced at the skirt, then at Banxia, and then looked at it again in a super tangled way. Banxia almost wants to say MMP, how hard to serve you, it's not as important as your little skirt, right?
Fortunately, the streamer quickly ran over and hugged Banxia, "I want my mother's kiss, the streamer likes my mother's kiss the most." ”
Banxia laughed heartily, and the little conscienceless thought that you wanted a small skirt.
There is a lot of love and honey here, and the Wenhou Mansion is preparing dinner over there.
Mrs. Wenhou stopped after taking two bites: "This lychee taro ball is usually the most popular eater, and you can eat more than half of it as soon as it is served." I don't know if he can get used to being with his second brother. How can you get used to sleeping in the open? I don't know what Master Hou thinks, I have to ask him to go back to worship his ancestors together, pity my child, he has never suffered, and I don't know how many sins I have to suffer along the way. ”
The grandmother next to her hurriedly comforted her: "Don't worry, madam, the nurses of the little master are all following, and the Hou master also has instructions to the second master, and when the time comes, the young master will be sent back as soon as the ancestor worship is over." Presumably she was already on her way back at this time, and Madame herself should take care of herself. The little master is the most benevolent and filial, and when he comes back and sees that you have lost weight, he will definitely be sad. You can use some more. ”
"Only my child feels sorry for me, where did Master Hou go tonight?"
"I said I was taking the eldest prince out for entertainment."
Mrs. Wenhou was furious at once, and reached out and smashed the tea cup on the table to the ground. "The eldest prince, the eldest prince...... He is not only his eldest son in his heart, when has he planned for our son. When I didn't know, he was thinking about the original child, and he didn't look at the lady in the palace, he hadn't seen the emperor for many years. He himself likes his eldest son, and he can't guess the emperor's heart. Doesn't the emperor also like the eldest son? I'll see what that slut's kid can get......"
"Madame...... Madam! "A little maid came running in.
"What, are there any rules?"
"Madame's forgiveness." The little maid fell to her knees.
Mrs. Wenhou said, "What is the matter?" ”
"The people who followed the second master back to their ancestral hometown outside are back......"
"My baby is back, I'm going to see ......"
"No, ma'am, the man came back alone, he said......"
"What to say, what to do."
"It was said that he met bandits on the road, and all the people who went back died."
"What did you say?" Mrs. Wenhou only felt that her eyes were dark, and she was about to faint, but the grandmother behind her hurriedly supported her: "Madam, you have to cheer up, you can't fall, we still have to ask about the situation, maybe the little boy is still waiting for you to save it." ”
"Yes, I can't faint, I'm going to ask...... Yes, ask ......"
Hou Ye Wen was pushing the cup outside to change the lamp, and the servant at home suddenly came in, "Hou Ye, Madame sent someone to invite, saying that there was an accident at home." ”
"What's going on this time, she can't stop a little without seeing that I'm busy......"
"Master Hou, let's have another drink......"
"Go back and tell her that I'm busy, I'll go back later......"
"But Master Hou ......"
"Don't go yet."
After three rounds of drinking, Prince Wen helped his father back, and just got out of the car, there was a heavy white cloth floating in front of the door. Marquis Wen drank some wine, and his mind was not clear, when he suddenly saw these and asked, "What is this for?" ”
The porter came forward and said, "The Hou Ye is mourning, the second master and the little boy have gone." ”
"Bastard, what did you say?"
Palace.
"Your Majesty, a banner was erected over the Wenhou Mansion, saying that the second master and the little prince who returned to their hometown to worship their ancestors met mountain bandits on the road and unfortunately died."
"That's really not good, how do the people in Lingxian do things, the mountain bandits are rampant to such an extent, come here! Spread the decree to Dingzhou, and let the Dingzhou prefect check it well. ”
Half a month has passed since the incident, and what can be found out after another investigation is just a procrastination.
"The concubine must not know this news, whether it is the flesh and blood of the dearest, go and inform the concubine, if you want to go back to save your relatives, I will also allow it. After all, Master Hou is so old, and it is really pitiful for a white-haired person to send a black-haired person. ”
Outside the palace.
Marquis Wen's wine woke up suddenly, and he rushed forward and grabbed the collar of the porter: "What nonsense, I also prepared these things, okay, Benhou cut you." ”
"Master Hou, even if there are a hundred brave minions, they don't dare to talk nonsense. This is said by the Mulberry steward who accompanied him when he came back. ”
"Others, bring them up."
Marquis Wen had to accept the news of the death of his second brother and son, and hurried to the inner courtyard. In the inner courtyard, the mourning hall has been set up, and Mrs. Wenhou is crying and cleaning up her son's clothes.
"Look away, don't worry, I will avenge the child."
Mrs. Wenhou was unusually calm: "What's the point of revenge or not, my child can't come back." He didn't even have a body, and he couldn't go home for the rest of his life. Hasn't Master Hou been busy, let's be busy now, anyway, your father, there is no difference between having it and not. ”
"You're blaming me, I really didn't know ...... before"
"I know what, I don't know what, I'm afraid that the Hou Ye would like my child to die, and the province will compete with the eldest prince later."
"What do you mean by that? Don't I like children enough on weekdays, I didn't give him what he liked, and where did I ...... him when he grew up?"
"I don't want to argue with Master Hou, it's not interesting anyway, there's nothing...... It's all gone. It's all retribution, retribution! ”
Wen Hou went out, and the eldest son Wen Yuan stood in the court, dressed in linen clothes, "Father, why are there bandits in Ling County?" ”
"Bandits! I'm afraid that our emperor's bandit is raised. Since he dares to touch my people, then everyone will not die. Go and get the person I was looking for ready. Qi Nanxing, Lushan Palace is your burial place. ”
