Chapter 45: Two Funerals (1)
"One day, we will defeat the enemy and let Nandao return to its former past, blue sea and blue sky!" Tears had blurred his vision, and Kecheng used the last words left by Nie Yuanhang to vent the grief in his heart.
Countless WindClan warriors watched their old island master disappear into the water barrier, and with their most powerful voices, they promised the veteran who had dedicated his life to the South Island, "One day, we will defeat the enemy and let the South Island return to its former past, blue sea and blue sky!"
The cry shook the sky, and no one was afraid.
Five days later, the news of Nie Yuanhang's death reached the imperial city, and Nie Yue, the priest of the Xuanwu Palace, fainted when he heard the news. Nie Xing, on the other hand, endured his grief and asked the Divine Palace to allow the two of them to sacrifice to the old island lord of the South Island in the Xuanwu Palace.
Leng Xin looked at Nie Xing, who had become extremely haggard in just one day, "When the Xuanwu Hall sacrifices for the old island lord, don't forget to inform me. ”
Nie Xing was in a trance, and he didn't hear Leng Xin's request at all, but he knew that she agreed, so he stood up and retreated.
"Go and tell the coroners that the date of the lady's burial is set at the same time as the sacrifice of the Xuanwu Temple. "Leng Xin doesn't want too many people to know the cause of his wife's death, and the white matter in the Xuanwu Palace is just a cover-up.
Gawain hesitated for a moment, but did not answer. Originally, it involved his wife, and Leng Xin wouldn't let him do it, what's wrong today?
"The old island owner of the South Island is a hero!" he sighed coldly, "Gawain, don't you think so?"
"Nie Yuanhang Island Master is indeed a hero. "This kind of thing is not going to hide it from Gao Wen, so he knows the cause of Nie Yuanhang's death," With him as an example, Nandao will be able to resist for a few more days. ”
Leng Xin now only feels that the word "Nandao" represents heaviness, "Now I can only hope that my birthday is coming soon, Nie Xing and Nie Yue are both in the imperial city, and they have to send troops to reinforce Nandao, and someone over there needs to preside over the overall situation." ”
When Xie You received the two letters of sacrifice, he was still wondering, "Didn't the old island master of Nandao die in battle?
"Yes...... Isn't the lord of the castle's mother also dead? "Chang Sui reminded him that this master forced him to find out how the lady died a while ago, and now he forgot all about it!
"Oh...... "Although it is a good thing to be able to leave the White Tiger Palace, but going out to attend two funerals a day, Xie You doesn't feel very lucky!"
The old housekeeper walked over with the plain clothes prepared for Xie You, "Master, you forgot, it will be the twentieth birthday of the city lord in ten days, so you have to try to put these white things together to do it." "There are not always days suitable for sacrifices and funerals, otherwise why would the imperial city delay it for so long and not bury the lady.
Xie You sighed, "I always feel that there is something wrong here, hey, how about the things I asked you to check?"
Chang Suixin said that you finally remembered, "The external statement of the Divine Palace is that Madame has been ill all the time, and she has not been saved this time. But the little one inquired that Mrs. had been murdered. ”
"Huh?" Xie You became interested and motioned for him to continue, "So the city lord found a coroner to investigate this matter, but I don't know why, after checking it, it will be over, and now it's not to bury the lady!"
"This is really strange! I look at the city lord like that, he looks like a person who can get to the bottom of things, why don't you check it if you check it?" Xie You has a good impression of Leng Xin, mainly because Leng Xin's strength is comparable to him.
