Chapter 256

Here is a mountain forest, all silent, sometimes there is a gloomy wind blowing over the tombs, accompanied by strange insect chirp, strange and terrifying.

Cao Qian got out of the car, looked around cautiously and asked, "But it's all ready." ”

"It's done." The cronies replied.

"Move fast." Cao Qian raised his feet and walked towards the cemetery without fear.

The cronies carried the stiff Cao Taishi from the car, and put the coffin that had been prepared long ago after entering the cemetery.

The few people who were waiting here immediately closed the lid of the coffin and carried the coffin to burial.

Taishi Cao has been ill for many years, and his tomb has long been repaired.

This is the ancestral tomb of the Cao family, and Cao Qian stood in front of the tomb and witnessed the burial of Master Cao.

"Your Excellency." The cronies brought a basket of incense, candles, and paper money.

Cao Qian took it and knelt on the ground to light it.

After burning the paper money and inserting incense candles, Cao Qian kowtowed a few times with a guilty face.

Cao Taishi, who was glorious I, died, but he was not buried in the scenery, but in such an inhuman way.

"My lord, the hour is getting late." The cronies reminded in a low voice.

Cao Qian got up and said sternly: "Take turns guarding day and night, and don't let anyone approach." ”

"Yes." Cronies are respectful.

After one last glance, Cao Qian got into the carriage in a black robe and left quickly.

In more than an hour, the sky is about to dawn, and he has to rush back to Cao's mansion and change into court clothes to go to the court.

Before dawn, Yu Zheng got up as usual, changed into court clothes and went to the court.

"Master, there is movement in the Cao family." Chasing the wind whispered.

Yu Zheng heard this and went to the study.

The secret guard waiting in the house saw Yu Zheng and immediately saluted.

"Say." Yu Zheng's expression was calm.

The Dark Guard told the truth what he saw at night.

Yu Zheng was stunned when he heard this: "Taishi Cao is dead? ”

The dark guard said: "The subordinates are far away from seeing people clearly, but Lord Cao knelt and burned the paper money and kowtowed. ”

In this way, there is no doubt that the person who will be buried must be Master Cao.

But when Master Cao died, the Cao family did not hold a funeral, and buried quietly behind people's backs, what did they want?

"Master." Chasing clouds called.

Yu Zheng knew that it was time to go to the court.

Before leaving, he ordered: "Keep staring at Cao Qian." ”

"Yes." The Dark Guard commands.

On the carriage of the last dynasty, Yu Zheng thought all the way and probably guessed Cao Qian's intentions.

deliberately held a birthday banquet to let Cao Taishi show up, and concealed the news of his death and quietly buried him, Cao Qian wanted the world to think that Cao Taishi was still alive, so as to maintain the stability of the Cao family's power.

Cao Qian's move is ruthless enough.

When he arrived at the court, Yu Zheng quietly observed Cao Qian, and saw that his expression was heavy, and there was blue and black under his eyes, obviously he hadn't slept all night.

It's really filial piety.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Cao Qian did not leave the palace immediately, but went to the queen's Yongning Palace.

The queen, dressed in plain clothes, had been waiting for a long time, and when she saw him coming, she hurriedly got up and ordered someone to close the palace door.

"Father, he ......" As soon as the queen spoke, her voice choked up, and tears burst out of her eyes uncontrollably.

Cao Qian nodded at her: "I have buried my father, and things are going well." ”

The queen wiped her tears and choked up, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

Since returning to the palace on the night of the birthday banquet, the queen has quietly guarded filial piety in Yongning Palace.

But all she could do was kneel in the direction of Cao's Mansion until midnight every night, and she didn't even dare to burn a piece of paper money or a pillar of incense.

It's a shame to be so filial.

The hall was silent for a moment, and Cao Qian said in a deep voice: "The opportunity is not easy to come by, we must seize it." ”

The queen nodded with red eyes: "You can do it." ”

"The prince's side ......" Cao Qian hesitated slightly.

"Can't tell him." The queen was very determined.

She couldn't know what kind of temperament her son has.

"It doesn't matter what he wants after that. But before the matter is completed, he must not know half of it, otherwise his father's hard work will be in vain. ”
