Chapter 317: Gratitude

Spring is the season of growth of all things, in just a few days, the woods on the mountain have been dressed in new clothes, the tender green new clothes make the mountains and forests full of vitality, to the foot of the mountain Qin Changning and others came down to walk, perhaps because this mountain is not as desolate as it seems, and everyone's expressions are as heavy as that.

Qin Changning couldn't persuade Qin Miao, and he could only let Qin Miao follow, but he just told Ling Xiao and them to prepare a bamboo chair, Qin Miao carried her up when she was tired, she must not be allowed to sweat, Qin Miao was moved and said, "Sister, the weather is very good today, I won't sweat, don't worry." ”

The group went up the mountain, a team of guards opened the way in front, several Taoist priests walked in front, followed by the eldest princess and the king of Jin, behind them was Qin Bo and the housekeeper who supported Qin Bo, followed by Qin Haoqian's brothers, Qin Changning and Qin Miao were slightly behind, and behind them were the remaining guards, and the foreign servants carrying the new coffin, a group of more than 200 people, quite a bit of a mighty feeling.

When they arrived at the cemetery where the Cao family was buried, the Taoist priest chanted the scriptures, and the Qin family, led by the King of Jin and the eldest princess, knelt in front of the tomb, waiting for the Taoist priest to finish chanting.

After all the rituals, it was already the auspicious time that the Taoist priest said, and when he looked up at the sky, he shouted, "Hold an umbrella!" ”

One of his disciples brought a bright yellow cloth and pulled it open, covering the whole tomb so that the sun could not shine into it.

The grave digger stepped forward with tools and began to dig the grave.

King Jin and the others stood up and stood aside.

Because the original Dai buried Cao's in a hurry, it was just an ordinary wooden coffin and it was not buried deeply, and it was not sealed, the workers soon dug up the wooden coffin, but the wooden coffin was already rotten, and they could only give up the tools to dig and start digging with their hands...

Half an hour later, King Jin looked at the dry bones and a few incomplete pieces of wood left, his eyes were red, he knelt down with a plop, and shouted sadly.

The eldest princess also knelt down and stretched out her hand to support King Jin, and whispered comfortingly, "Lord Wang... Don't be too upset, it's not your fault. ”

Qin Changning and the others' faces were also very heavy, and they knelt in front of the dry bones of the Cao family who had been invited, and Qin Bo also knelt down, showing guilt.

King Jin pulled the eldest princess's hand, knelt step by step and moved to Cao's dry bones and kowtowed three times, personally picked up the dry bones and put them in the newly prepared Nanmu coffin, at this time the Taoist priest came over again to put the already messy dry bones and began to chant.

"Seal the coffin!" With the shout of the Taoist priest, someone came over with a lid to close the coffin, and King Jin couldn't help but shed tears, "Mother, children are not filial, I never thought that you would sleep in such a place for so many years, and you are still..." ”

The eldest princess helped King Jin to stand up and persuaded in a low voice, "Lord, mother-in-law definitely doesn't want to see you so sad." ”

After a series of rituals, the King of Jin held the spiritual seat, Qin Haoxuan held an umbrella, Qin Changning and others put on filial piety clothes and went down the mountain to bury the Cao family in the ancestral tomb.

Qin Bo asked to hold the coffin himself, the king of Jin agreed, and Qin Bo also wore a filial piety robe and followed those workers to hold the coffin.

It was already in the afternoon when the tomb of the Cao family was moved into the ancestral tomb and the spiritual position of the Cao family was included in the ancestral hall.

As soon as I returned to the other courtyard, the holy decree of the capital arrived.

Everyone knelt in the courtyard, and the eunuch who came was Li Fugui's apprentice Laixi, who saw that the eldest princess and others were back, and hurriedly greeted him with a smile, "The prince, the eldest princess, and several highnesses, come to congratulate." ”

The eldest princess frowned slightly, said happy today? "Come on, you're here?" ”

"The slave is ordered by the emperor to announce the decree." looked at everyone with a smile, "Lord Wang, take the order." Looking at the little eunuch who stretched out his hand, the little eunuch took the holy decree and came to take it as a decree.

Everyone knelt down and came to the joy of screaming: "Qin Cao, the biological mother of the foreign surname Qin Jin, was virtuous and virtuous during her lifetime, had a good family, taught her children well, and demonstrated her virtue, and was posthumously awarded the title of first-class lady." Chin this. ”

The eldest princess smiled, and Qin Changning also sighed, infinitely melancholy, and looked up at King Jin, which might be able to soothe his guilty heart a little.

A little eunuch walked over, holding the edict document in his hand, Lai Xi took it, looked at King Jin and said, "Lord, take the paper." ”

King Jin and the others saluted, "Minister, thank you Lord Longen!" He got up and took the edict document that he handed over, and turned around to put the edict document under the Cao family's spiritual seat in the ancestral hall.

The eldest princess did not stop the king of Jin, and asked Zisu to entertain those fathers-in-law who came from the capital.

Qin Bo stood there and looked at the King of Jin who turned to leave, thinking that his mother had lost the opportunity to be awarded an edict because of a trouble, and then she made a fuss for a long time, and she also said everywhere that the King of Jin was not filial piety, and prevented the emperor from giving her an edict, and now this edict document has finally come down, and it can be regarded as... Return the things to their rightful owners.

Now it's time for everything to go back to where he was.

Qin Bo saw that no one was paying attention to him, he turned around and was about to leave, when suddenly the eldest princess called out to him, "Master Qin." ”

Qin Bo looked back at the eldest princess in surprise, and asked in a panic, "What's the matter with the princess calling the villain?" ”

The eldest princess frowned, turned around coldly, and said, "Master Qin, let's come with this palace." He glanced at Zizen, "Zizen, go and get something." ”

Qin Changning's brother and sister glanced at each other, and there was confusion in their eyes, and everyone walked up.

In the flower hall, Zi Su walked up with a black cloth wrapped in something, put it on the high table and opened the black cloth, revealing a white porcelain vase, the eldest princess looked at the snow-white porcelain vase, and Qin Bo, who was surprised, said coldly, "This is the ashes of the Dai family." ”

She originally wanted this evil to be eaten by the Dai clan who did not repent until the end, and was eaten in the belly of a wild dog or a wolf and eagle in a mass grave, but in the end, she still failed to make that ruthlessness, even if... For the sake of the people she cared about, she asked Zicen to find someone to incinerate Qin's lost body, and then bring it back in a porcelain bottle and give it to Qin Bo.

It can be regarded as letting her return to her roots.

"Princess?" Qin Bo looked at the eldest princess in shock, his eyes turned red, "Didn't you mean that I... Is the mother in a mass grave? ”

The eldest princess frowned, her face instantly cold, "Do you think that after this palace knows what your family has done to us, it will kindly hold your mother's ashes in front of you?" ”

Qin Bo's face was pale, and he knelt down gratefully, "Thank you, princess, for your kindness and righteousness!" ”

Qin Changning was also very surprised, she had been on the mountain for a month, and she didn't know anything about the mountain at all, she only heard that the Dai family died and was thrown into a mass grave, but she didn't expect...

Qin Changning looked at the eldest princess, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, the mother concubine was really a kind-hearted person. 10
