Chapter 6 Setting up a mourning hall

Shen Yu'an understood Pei Xia's careful thoughts, but she didn't know.

To her, the King of the North Wing was just a stranger she had never met and was extremely annoying.

At the beginning, he openly refused to marry, threatening that he was not interested in women, and said that if the marriage partner was her brother Shen Huaizhi, he could consider it.

If she refuses to marry, she will forget it, and she will humiliate her brother!

It's just disgusting!

"In the future, the king of the northern wing of Moti, bad luck!"

As soon as Pei Xia walked to the door, her foot was hit by the threshold and she almost fell.

Sleepless nights.

Early in the morning, after Shen Yu'an washed up, she went to visit Shen Huaizhi.

As soon as I got out of the small courtyard, I noticed that the front yard was too noisy, and there was a faint sound of Taoist priests chanting, so I immediately turned around and went to the front yard.

The closer you get, the clearer the sound of chanting becomes, accompanied by the crying of many people.

She couldn't help but quicken her pace.

When I arrived at the front yard, I found that the yard was covered with white silk, the main hall had been converted into a mourning hall, and a brand new black coffin was placed in the center.

In front of the coffin, a table of eight immortals was placed, an incense burner was set up on the table, and two Taoist priests sat on the left and right, one chanting sutras, and the other striking the copper cymbals.

One meter away from the Eight Immortals Table, a copper basin was placed, and the juniors on the side of the Shen family were crying and burning paper.

On the left and right, there were two rows of crying and crying women, including aunts in the house and uncles and aunts in the side branches.

Pei Shi sat beside the coffin, his eyes were red, his eyes were bloodshot, and the whole person was motionless, very wooden.

Shen Yu'an was stunned, searched around the crowd, and saw Shen Fengnian who was talking to the housekeeper Zhao Shen.

Hurriedly walked over, "Father." ”

Shen Fengnian explained to Zhao Shen, "Those distant relatives, except for the wife's mother's family, must be notified." ”

"Also, send someone to Shuiyue Nunnery to pick up the third young lady."

"Over there in Li County, let people quickly send the news over and bring the second master's family back as soon as possible."

Zhao Shen responded one by one and left in a hurry.

Shen Yu'an frowned, "Daddy, what are you doing?" ”

Shen Fengnian looked tired, and looked at Shen Yu'an with complicated eyes, "Follow me." ”

The father and daughter went to the library.

As soon as he went up to the second floor, Shen Yu'an couldn't help but ask, "I said yesterday, the third brother still has a chance to come back to life, and my father set up a mourning hall early this morning, what is this for?" ”

Shen Fengnian looked at Shen Yu'an deeply, and his eyes were heavy and complicated that Shen Yu'an couldn't understand.

"Yesterday, Master Tzu Chi arrived, saying that your brother had a glimmer of life, and he was so excited for his father that he forgot to think about the consequences."

"If your brother can really come back from the dead, it will definitely cause a shock in the world, and then Master Tzu Chi and you will be watched by the world."

"Ordinary people can't do anything to you, and the powerful one will use all means to bring you and Tzu Chi under his command to protect eternal life."

"So your brother can't be resurrected, at least, not as Shen Huaizhi."

Shen Yu'an instantly understood Shen Fengnian's intentions, and couldn't tell what it was like in her heart, "My father only has one son, the third brother, and setting up a mourning hall and mourning means that the Hou Mansion will have no successor." ”

"The title of Marquis of Pingxi was given back by my father for half his life, and he lost the lives of his two brothers, and he gave it up because he cared about my safety, is it worth it?"

Shen Fengnian smiled bitterly, "Silly girl, doing this for my father is not only for you, but also for the entire Pingxi Hou Mansion, along with General Shen's Mansion, and even the entire Shen family." ”

Shen Yu'an was puzzled, her brother's resurrection put her and Tzu Chi in danger at most, how could it threaten the safety of the entire Shen family?

"Daddy's words, my daughter doesn't understand."

"You don't need to understand." Shen Fengnian said in a deep voice, "Regarding the piece of jade on your brother's body, you can't reveal it to anyone. ”

Shen Yu'an was even more confused, "Daddy knows what that Yu Jue is for?" ”

"Yes."

"Then daddy, do you know, where does that jade jue come from? Why do Tzu Chi monks say that Jade Jue is returned to its original owner? ”

Shen Fengnian's face changed suddenly, "Master Tzu Chi really said that? ”

"Hmm." Shen Yu'an nodded, "He said that Abbot Huijue had seen through the heavens and calculated that my third brother had a life and death calamity, so before he died, he asked him to bring Yu Jue to Shen Mansion in exchange for a chance of life for my third brother." ”

Shen Fengnian looked shocked.

"If what Master Tzu Chi said is true, then it means that Abbot Huijue wants to save my third brother. But my father also said that the third brother's resurrection from the dead would threaten the safety of the entire Shen family, does that mean that Abbot Huijue wants to harm the Shen family? ”

Shen Yu'an analyzed step by step.

"No, Abbot Huijue won't harm the Shen family."

Shen Yu'an looked at Shen Fengnian suspiciously, "Isn't it contradictory that my father believes that Abbot Huijue will not harm the Shen family, and that my brother will be in danger if he comes back from the dead?" ”

Shen Fengnian's mind was in a mess, and in the face of his daughter's questioning, he didn't know how to answer at all.

The abbot of Huijue should know that when the soul is in the world, there will be strife in the world.

That being the case, why did he ask someone to send Soul Jue back to the Shen Mansion before he passed away?

"Daddy......"

"Don't ask, I'm confused for my father." Shen Fengnian looked tired, "The news of your third brother's death, I have already asked people to convey it to the major families, and someone will come to mourn soon, and I will go to receive the guests." ”

After that, he left.

Shen Yu'an frowned, she didn't know what her father was worried about, but she didn't want her third brother to die in the eyes of the world.

Her third brother, when he returns, must live in the sun as Shen Huaizhi in a dignified manner.

After thinking about it for a moment, I already had a plan in my heart.

After leaving the library building, he returned to Lanyue Pavilion and wrote a letter to ask Tsing Yi Wei to send it to Huguo Temple.

*

Huguo Temple.

Under the Bodhi tree, a handsome monk dressed in white and a handsome man dressed in ink-colored clothes are playing against each other.

You come and go, game after game.

One is leisurely, unhurried, and the other is decisive, pressing step by step.

Leaving the last son, the dark eyes of the Emperor looked at Tzu Chi coldly, "You lost again." ”

Tzu Chi smiled gently, "The prince is a master of chess. ”

The fingers of the Emperor of the Darkness fiddled with the word "Ning" on the chessboard at will.

"This person, can he be in Shengjing?"

"Lord Wang, the poor monk has no ability for divination."

The Emperor disrupted the chess pieces casually, and he entered Beijing to find the abbot of Huijue, but he didn't want Huijue to pass away.

"The Shen family has already started a funeral, so Shen Huaizhi can really come back from the dead?"

"What Uncle Huijue said should be true, but when it will be resurrected, the poor monk can't predict."

Shencang Yu sneered, "If it weren't for the banner of Huijue, this king would really suspect that it was you, a monk, who were talking nonsense and swaggering." ”

If a person can be resurrected from the dead, will there be chaos in the world?

"Uncle Tzu Chi, Miss Shen Fu sent a letter."

The little novice stepped forward and respectfully presented the letter, always keeping his head down, not daring to look at the Underworld.
