After the inventory of the officials of Taichang Temple was completed, Wei Lian gave an order, and the team marched into the city. If Ling Yi hadn't known the royal family's intentions in advance, he might have been deceived by the royal family's actions.

Such a level can be said to be a state funeral level treatment, and there is nothing wrong with normal people, and even the two princes just followed the hearse and did a good job.

Ling Yi followed behind a general of the Royal Knights as an escort officer, and he didn't say much, just followed quietly, and when others talked to him, he only answered politely, and he couldn't see any questions.

The hearse entered the city in turn, and there was nothing abnormal, until Lingyi and the others just came out of the city gate hole, only to find that the hearse procession in front of them had stopped.

Wei Lian hurriedly called his entourage and asked carefully, it stands to reason that such a team is not allowed to stop, and everything has to give way to the hearse.

Ling Yi could see from afar that Wei Lian's face was extremely cold, especially after his entourage reported the situation to him, his face was already cold to the limit.

With a wave of his hand, a group of officials stepped forward with Wei Lian, and Ling Yi knew that the beginning of his plan had worked.

The old god's comfortable Ling Yi was suddenly stopped by an officer of the Royal Knights in front: "Captain Wu, the second prince invites you over." ”

Although honorifics are used, there is not much respect between the words, and there is more disobedience and provocation.

"The second prince called me, did you release anything?" Ling Yi asked curiously.

The officer didn't answer, just turned around and led the way, as if he hadn't heard Ling Yi's question.

Shrugging, Ling Yi didn't continue to ask, just walked forward behind him.

As we walked through the procession, the streets of the city were already crowded with people looking at the remains, many of them talking to each other on the side of the road, and more people wanted to squeeze forward to see what was happening.

The farther I went, the louder the shouts became, and I vaguely heard words such as "open grace, relocate ......".

At this time, Wei Lian was being protected by the army in front, talking to the crowd kneeling on the ground, but he couldn't hear what they were saying.

Ling Yi stepped forward, did not approach the front, just watched from the sidelines, and did not discuss, all the officials and generals around him were nervous.

"Second prince, my son and I have been separated for more than 40 years, and today we are finally reunited, so let me enter the royal mausoleum and watch him buried! ”

The old man kneeling in front of Wei Lian was eighty years old and had a rickety body, but judging from his speech and temperament, he should be an old man who has been in the top position for a long time.

Ling Yi curiously looked at the officer beside him and asked, "Who is this old man, who can actually get close to the second prince?"

The officer who led Ling Yi over frowned, not wanting to answer Ling Yi's question. However, an official standing on the right side of Ling Yi answered Ling Yi's question: "This old man is Guo Zhengtang, who retired from the position of the secretary of the Criminal Department a few years ago, this is an old man at the level of the patriarch of the Kai Dynasty, and his eldest son died in the Wanqing Grassland back then!"

"Oh, I didn't expect the old man to be the patriarch of the Kai Dynasty, so what is he kneeling here for?"

"Hey, this time to bury the remains, the royal decree is that except for the officials who pay tribute, no one can enter the royal mausoleum, maybe Lao Shangshu wants to ask for a funeral for his son!"

"Can't we enter the royal mausoleum, can't we watch the ceremony?" asked Ling Yi, pretending to be ignorant.

"Don't you know?" The official who had just answered Ling Yi's words looked at Ling Yi curiously and asked, "When you came to attend the funeral, didn't your troops explain to you?"

"Explain what? I am the officer who escorted the remains this time, and I don't know the details of the burial!"

"Oh, it turns out that you are the officer of the state who escorted the remains this time, I heard that these remains were rescued by you and your troops, right?"

Ling Yi nodded, and with the conversation between the two, many people focused their eyes on Ling Yi, and now at a glance, this officer was indeed the officer of the state who reported to the second prince before.

In their hearts, many officials cast friendly and appreciative glances at Ling Yi.

The official who answered Lingyi's question continued: "You are Captain Wu Lingyi, you are really young and promising, you are a member of the subordinate army outside Lang Tong Xiao, take care of it in the future!"

"It turned out to be the commander of the military department, disrespectful and disrespectful!"

As soon as the two talked, they became much closer, and Ling Yi asked again: "Why can't officials and family members enter the cemetery to watch the ceremony this time?"

Tong Xiao replied: "Under normal circumstances, ordinary people are not allowed to enter the royal mausoleum, but it is already a royal grace to be able to bury these remains in this time, how can so many people be allowed to enter the royal mausoleum!"

"Isn't that the relatives of these martyrs unable to sweep the graves of the martyrs for the rest of their lives? This is also too inhumane!"

"Captain Wu said carefully!" Tong Xiao was frightened into a cold sweat by Ling Yi's words, this is a vain discussion of the emperor's decision, but he wants to kill his head!

"Oh, I'm Meng Lang, Meng Lang!" Ling Yi then remembered that this is Kyoto, and you have to be careful about the source.

Tong Xiao saw that no one around him noticed the conversation between the two, and then said cautiously: "Captain Wu, in the future, when you walk in Kyoto, you should pay more attention to this speech, don't go wrong later! Kyoto is not better than other places, it is better to be careful!"

"Thank you Brother Tong for mentioning it, please drink another day!"

"Okay, after today's event, I invite you to go to the Humble House and sit down!"

The two talked for a while, only to hear the voices of the crowd in front of them getting louder and louder, which had already overshadowed the voice of the second prince.

The soldiers guarding the prince were all on guard in case the masses rioted.

At this time, a eunuch-like person brushed aside the officials and walked in the direction of Ling Yi.

"Captain Wu, the second prince invites you over!"

"Okay, please lead the way!"

Waving goodbye to Tong Xiao, Ling Yi followed the eunuch to the front of the team and stood behind Wei Lian.

"Rest assured, these soldiers who have dedicated their lives to the country will not be forgotten by the empire, they are buried in the royal mausoleum, and there will be a special person to pay tribute to them, you don't have to worry!"

Wei Lian was still persuading these masses, but with little effect, and even made the emotions of the masses more and more excited.

"We don't agree, we demand a relocation!"

The opposition is getting louder and louder, and slowly Wei Lian's voice has been muffled underneath.

Ling Yi had no expression on his face, but his heart was happy, and the more excited the masses were, the more they were opposed, and the more promising things were today. If only a small number of people come out to oppose it, then it will not help, but all the martyrs' families are collectively opposed, even the imperial court does not dare to go their own way.

Wei Lian stood there and had no choice, the house leak happened to rain overnight, and the crowd in front had not yet been appeased, only to see a guard, rushing forward from the rear of the team, and reported to Wei Lian: "The second prince of Qiyu, the funeral martyrs in the rear are also rioting, they unanimously demand to relocate the site, those herdsmen who have followed all the way from Bingzhou, the mood is even more excited than that here. ”

After Wei Lian heard this, his face became worse and worse, if it weren't for the fact that these were his own people, not martyrs, maybe he would have ordered a purge.

Shaking his head helplessly, he looked at Wei Tuo beside him, hoping that Wei Tuo would have a way, but unfortunately Wei Tuo shrugged his shoulders and said that there was no way.

Wei Wentao, who was following them, said at the right time: "Or will you follow the wishes of the people?"

"I don't dare to change my father's will at will!" Wei Lian shook his head and retorted.

"Then wait for the riots in Kyoto, I can't help it!" Wei Wentao had no scruples.

Wei Lian glanced at Wei Wentao, and persuaded again, but there was no effect, even the old Shangshu Guo Zhengtang, who was still whispering before, was full of emotion, and he was angry, Wei Lian was really afraid that he would fall here if he couldn't get up in one breath, if that was the case, as a prince, he would die alive and die of the patriarch of the Kai Dynasty, and the historian didn't know how to record it!

Originally, it was just a guard of the Royal Knights, and as a last resort, Wei Lian also mobilized the Royal Forest Army just in case.

Just then, the Guards arrived.

Originally, Wei Lian was just for defense, but the army suddenly appeared, pushing the contradiction to the top, and the resistance of the masses was no longer verbal, and he had already begun to want the hearse team to squeeze over, which was terrible, and what was not good was the conflict between the military and the people.

Wei Lian stepped back, the situation was no longer out of his control.

Wei Wentao saw that the conflict was about to break out, and knew that if it continued, it would really cause a riot, so he hurriedly said to Wei Lian: "Maybe there is someone who can alleviate this crisis!"

"Who?" Wei Lian hurriedly asked.

"Didn't you already call him over?" replied Wei Wentao.

Wei Lian hurriedly turned around, and sure enough, he saw Ling Yi not far behind him, and hurriedly said to Wei Wentao: "Wentao, you go and invite the martial school captain over!"

Wei Wentao naturally did not delay, turned around and walked towards Ling Yi, and brought Ling Yi to Wei Lian's side after a while.

"Captain Wu, do you have any way to resolve this crisis?" Wei Lian asked eagerly.

"The second prince Wen Tao has no choice, and the last general has no choice!" Ling Yi said that there was no way.

"You are the captain who rescued the remains and came back, if you come forward, maybe these people will listen to you, you can help!" Wei Lian's voice even had a hint of pleading.

"I really can't help it!" Ling Yi continued.

Wei Lian hurriedly replied: "You don't have to worry, as long as you can solve this accident, on the basis of the original reward, I am asking you for credit! Originally, I promoted you to battalion commander and lead the light cavalry general, if you can appease the people today, I will promote you to the general of the Zhengwupin Xiaocai!"

When Ling Yi heard this, this is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone, not only has the opportunity to solve the problem in front of him, but also has a reward, and my heart is full of flowers. But his expression was still hesitant, as if he couldn't make up his mind.

"So, that, I'll try?" Ling Yi said uncertainly.

"Go ahead!"

Ling Yi stepped forward, and at this time, the people were already approaching, and the soldiers of the Royal Knights at the front were already competing with Wei Lian's Royal Knights, and if one was not good, a conflict could break out.

When many people saw Wei Lian retreating, they thought that Wei Lian was afraid of him, and his voice was even worse. However, when they saw a young lieutenant walking forward, they all looked at Ling Yi curiously, not knowing what kind of means the royal family had.

Ling Yi didn't say a word, and walked straight to Guo Zhengtang, who was still kneeling on the ground.
