That new emperor of Great Chu has died!

Soon, this bad news spread throughout the entire Chu land, first the former emperor with infinite glory returned to heaven, and then this bad news came, and the hearts of the people in the territory of Great Chu were undoubtedly shrouded in a layer of haze.

It's just that some people don't believe this rumor, even if it's true, it was killed by the people of the Han Dynasty!

There are various theories among the people, some say that His Majesty the new emperor committed suicide, some say that he was secretly placed under house arrest by the Han Dynasty, and some people say that he abandoned the capital and the people a long time ago and fled elsewhere......

There are different opinions, and for a while, these rumors were actually said in a similar way, making it difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood.

The only thing that can be known is that there are dozens of soldiers and monks in armor and sweatshirts in the former palace of Dachu, all of whom are men and horses of the Han Dynasty, as for which Xianjia Mountain sent them, it is not clear.

After that, the Han Dynasty set up temples in the Great Chu, abolished the imperial system, and unified the remaining Chu army that had not resisted into the Han Dynasty, and the people in the land of the Great Chu could still call themselves Chu people, and they did not have to worry about being demoted to exiles and slaves, and even supported the exchange of commerce and trade, intermarriage and marriage between the Han and the Great Chu......

It's just that there is an additional temple here that is directly ordered by the Han Dynasty, just like a frontier ceremony.

For decades, the Han Dynasty has been doing this, setting up a temple for each dynasty that has been captured, and treating the people of its dynasty well, so that the three chapters of the law are not committed, of course, if there are people who are ready to move, you can try the Han Dynasty's decades of fierce soldiers!

......

In the mud alley of Baiju Town,

"Squeak-"

"Granny Yu!" Yao Zhenyi gently pushed open the courtyard door of Granny Yu's house and shouted.

It was just that he was puzzled that he still didn't hear any movement after he screamed a few times.

The young man hurriedly ran into the courtyard, slammed open the innermost door, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he instantly shouted with tears in his eyes, "Granny Yu?!"

In the house, on a dilapidated bed lay an old woman with dry lips and dying, who was the mother-in-law Yu.

The old man's wrinkled face was closed, his face was bloodless, and he was obviously dying, as if he heard the voice of the young man, and the old woman trembled and stretched out her withered left hand.

Yao Zhenyi hurriedly stepped forward and reached out to hold the old man's hand, leaned down, and whispered with a little crying, "Granny Yu, don't talk, I'll go find Shopkeeper Sun's ......"

The old man slowly opened his eyes, and saw the tears on the young man's face in his blurred vision, and was lifted up with difficulty by the young man's hand, and then reached out to his face and touched the tears on Yao Zhenyi's face, revealing a smile, "Little... Xiao Zhenyi, Granny Yu is leaving, she is old... I'm going to go back after all......"

"Tick-"

Hearing Granny Yu's words, Yao Zhenyi couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes anymore, and said with tears in her eyes, "No! No! Granny Yu is so good, she will definitely live a long life!"

Granny Yu looked at the young man as if she was comforting herself and muttering to herself, and she couldn't help but lament in her heart, a child with a miserable life.

The old man has not experienced any storms in his life, and he has not left any children and grandchildren, and the only thing worth her concern about is the child in front of her.

When I think back to hearing about the birth of this little guy, I cried so much. A family of three could have been very happy, but his parents went when he was young.

I vaguely remember that when I opened the door of his yard at that time, I saw the little guy sitting alone at the door, not crying or making trouble, but his eyes seemed to be lifeless, alas......

The past years are vivid, and now this scene, who has been spared by time.

The old man is also a little sentimental, maybe before leaving, there will be so many feelings.

Yao Zhenyi wiped his tears, and then said to the old man on the bed, "I'm going to call Shopkeeper Sun!"

When the words fell, the boy got up and ran out.

"Tick-"

Just as Yao Zhenyi ran out of the door, a drop of rain fell.

He raised his head and glanced at the sky, only to see that the sky was gray at this time, and it had gradually begun to drizzle, and then it became denser and denser.

The hazy sky, with a slight chill penetrating into the body, is like a young man's heavy heart at this time.

"Plop!"

In the heavy rain, because he ran too fast, the young man accidentally slipped on the sole of his foot, and fell directly to the ground, and after getting up, Yao Zhenyi found that his knee was bleeding, and he frowned when he felt the pain coming from his knee, and then continued to run forward regardless of the wound.

Fang just fell to the ground, causing the boy to be covered in mud, coupled with the rain that kept falling, making him look embarrassed all over his body, the rain mixed with the tears on his face, Yao Zhenyi ran faster and faster, as if he felt that something was about to be lost.

People passing by with umbrellas were surprised to see a dirty boy rushing by, and they had some doubts in their hearts, isn't this the orphan in Mud Alley...

......

"Bang bang bang!"

In the Sun family's pharmacy, the young man reached out and patted the wooden door that had been closed, and shouted anxiously, "Shopkeeper Sun!!

At this moment, one of the planks on the door was removed, revealing a figure, Hao Ran was the indifferent young man, the young man who was doing chores in the Sun family's pharmacy was named Yuan Shu, he saw the young man standing outside the door who was soaked and muddy, his original indifferent expression eased slightly, and said softly, "The shopkeeper Sun went out, and he can't come back in the past two days, Yao Zhenyi, do you have anything to do?"

A cold wind blew outside the door, making the soaking young man tremble unconsciously, and he panted and said to the young man in front of him, "Brother Yuan, hurry, get the medicine box!"

Yuan Shu frowned, and there were some doubts in his heart, but he still turned around and went in to get the medicine box, looking at the young man's anxious appearance, something must have happened.

Got the medicine box, as soon as Yuan Shu walked to the door, he was suddenly pulled by Yao Zhenyi and ran quickly, this rain became heavier and heavier, and the dense drizzle turned into a torrential rain.

"Whoa-"

"Brother Yuan! Hurry!" In the rainstorm, the two of them just ran back to Granny Yu's house soaking wet, and before Yuan Shu could take a breath, Yao Zhenyi hurriedly pulled him and walked in quickly.

"Yu ......"

As soon as the two walked in the door, Yao Zhenyi shouted, and then the expression on his face instantly stiffened, and he looked at the scene in front of him with empty eyes.

The old woman lay quietly on the bed with her eyes closed, with a smile on her old face, without the pain before leaving, and walked peacefully...

The tears in his eyes gradually blurred his vision, and Yao Zhenyi fell to the ground as if he had been drained of strength, looking at the old man on the bed in a daze.

Yuan Shu, who was drenched in the rain, walked over, stretched out his hand to probe the old man's snort on the bed, and then checked the pulse again, sighed weakly, turned around and shook his head at the young man on the ground.

......

Next to the young man's father's and mother's grave, there is a new cemetery, which belongs to the old man.

The rain was still falling, but it wasn't as heavy as it had just been.

Yao Zhenyi knelt in front of Granny Yu's tomb, Yuan Shu stood behind him, and the two of them who were drenched in the rain were silent.

Then, Yuan Shu stepped forward, gently patted the young man's shoulder, and sighed, "Mourn." ”

Yao Zhenyi, who was kneeling in front of the old man's tomb, whispered, "Brother Yuan, thank you..."

"Alas..."Yuan Shu sighed again, and then turned around and left here.

"Rustle-"

Not long after Yuan Shu left, a sound of footsteps reached the young man's ears, and then a figure stretched out his hand to hold an umbrella to cover the young man kneeling on the ground, Yao Zhenyi raised his head and looked, it was the middle-aged Confucian with gray temples, Mr. Su.

Su Qing also saw the young man looking up, nodded lightly, and then said, "Yao Zhenyi, people can't be resurrected after death, don't be too sad." ”

Yao Zhenyi lowered his head, looked at the tomb of the old man in front of him, and said with a slight cry in his voice, "Mr. Su, I know everything, I know everything, but... I just feel so hurt... It hurts, it hurts..."

The middle-aged Confucian didn't say anything more, just stretched out his other hand and touched the young man's head.

The drizzle was lingering, in the haze. The sad young man knelt in front of the tomb, and the middle-aged Confucian stood beside him with an umbrella.

In the midst of the silence, all that can be heard is the sound of the rain falling on the earth......
