Last time, it was said that Lingyu left the palace and walked towards the mansion, and it was already lunch time when she returned to the mansion, Chang Yue'e and her sisters gathered in the living room to wait for Lingyu, and when Lingyu walked into the living room, Chang Yue'e instructed Chunlan and them to serve food and wine, and soon the wine and food were placed on the table, Lingyu said that everyone moved their chopsticks to start eating, toasted each other, and the atmosphere was very lively. Halfway through the meal, the princess said, "Husband, what is the matter with entering the palace to find the emperor today?"

Lingyu put down her chopsticks and said, "I wanted to wait until I finished eating to tell you, but since Yumei asked, let's say it now!" Ma Junlan said: "Big brother, if there is any good news, tell me quickly!" Lingyu said: "That's the case, I have resigned from my official position, and I am free again." Ma Junlan said: "Big brother, you mean it really. Lingyu said: "Of course it's true, there's nothing to joke about." Ma Junlan smiled: "Great, now we can enjoy the mountains and rivers to our heart's content." The princess said: "Husband, has the imperial brother agreed?" Lingyu said: "Yes, yes, I still retain the official positions of Taibao and Flying Tiger General." ”

Hao Yan said: "Brother Yu, you said that you are already free, but what if you still have an official position." Lingyu said: "These two official positions are idle positions, and there is no need to do things without war." Hong Xia said: "Brother Yu, since you are idle, you can accompany us to everyone's mother's house, one to visit relatives, and the other to see the scenery." Lingyu said: "Sister Xia, there is something more important to do now." Hong Xia said: "Brother Yu, what else is important." Lingyu said: "I want to go to Qingyuan County in two days and send my parents back to my hometown for burial." Hong Xia said: "This is very important, we should go to worship our in-laws as the daughter-in-law of the Zhang family now, and we will talk about it later when we return to our parents' house." "Then you talk to me. It is said that the bones of the in-laws should be sent back to their hometown for burial first.

Lingyu plans to leave in two days. In the past two days, they have enjoyed themselves in the house and Chang Yue'e. Blowing the flute, playing the piano, singing and dancing, everything can be called a stunt, which is refreshing and pleasant, and the body and mind are pleasant, even if the emperor sees it, he will be envious and jealous.

Two days later, Lingyu and Chang Yue set off to leave the capital, and in order not to be too public, they all dressed up in disguise. Lingyu put on a fake beard and dressed up as a rich son, the princess and Hong Xia are women, Chang Yue'e, Hao Yan, Ma Junlan, and Xiang'er are all women dressed as men and dressed as entourages, Chunlan, Qiu Ju, and Xia He. Dongmei is still worn by Yahuan and serves the princess and Hong Xia. They were all on horseback. The princess didn't know how to ride a horse and had to ride with Lingyu, sometimes sitting behind Lingyu, sometimes sitting in Lingyu's arms, smiling, Chang Yue'e and Hong Xia They were envious, and Xiaoxing stayed overnight along the way towards Qingyuan County.

Lingyu asked Tong Yunfei and Yin Caihong to rush to Yangzhou's hometown first, Cailian and Shui Yue went with them, Tong Yunfei and they came to Yangzhou Lingyu's hometown, so they asked Mr. Feng Shui to choose a good cemetery, prepare materials, build a few simple houses next to the cemetery, and stay in filial piety.

Lingyu and several ladies came to Qingyuan County, hired a sedan carriage for the princess to sit in, hired a flatbed carriage, bought a pair of high-quality coffins to put on the carriage, and also bought a wooden box and a few shovels. They rested in the county town for a day, and after breakfast the next day, two middle-aged coachmen drove two carriages, and Lingyu and the others rode towards Black Pine Ridge.

Lingyu took Chang Yue'e and them to Heisongling, they all dismounted and walked to the grave of Zhang Zhengqing and his wife, Lingyu stepped forward to burn incense and paper money, and then knelt on the ground, Chang Yue'e and they also knelt behind, and then followed Lingyu and kowtowed three times. Lingyu kowtowed, folded his hands and looked at the grave and prayed silently: "Father, mother, the child has avenged you, and your spirit in the sky can also be comforted, the child now wants to take you back to your hometown for burial, and I hope to forgive your sins if you are disturbed." After saying that, they started fighting, and Chang Yue'e and the others also stood up.

Lingyu personally picked up the shovel and excavated, Chang Yue'e and the others had to come forward to help, Lingyu didn't let him, saying that he would do it alone, telling them to stand far away, Lingyu waved the shovel, and the grave flew away quickly, as easy as shoveling tofu, and after a while, the grave soil was shoveled clean, revealing the rotten sticks, and Lingyu threw the rotten sticks aside to reveal the bones.

Chang Yue'e took out a large piece of red silk cloth, Hong Xia, Hao Yan, and Xiang'er helped pull it apart and put it on the side, Lingyu picked up the bones of her parents and put them on the red silk cloth, and Lingyu searched in the soil several times to make sure that no bones were left.

Lingyu opened the coffin lid, Chang Yue'e and the others carried the bones of their in-laws and gently put them into the coffin, and Lingyu covered the coffin lid again. Then Lingyu went to the grave of her mother's bridal maid to burn some paper money, made three pieces, and then shoveled away the grave soil, wrapped the bones in a cloth and put them in a wooden box.

Lingyu saw that everything was arranged and called to set off, Lingyu and Chang Yue'e, Xiang'er opened the way in front, the coffin carriage followed behind, the princess's carriage was behind, Hao Yan, Ma Junlan, Chunlan Qiuju They were in the end, the princess was too lonely to take the carriage alone, Lingyu called Hong Xia and the princess to ride in the carriage together, and the group stayed overnight towards Yangzhou. The first few days are all safe, this day came to Longpan Mountain, the road on both sides of the hillside and lush forests, at noon came to Longpan Town in the mountains, walked into a Fulai inn to rest and eat, Lingyu they walked into the inn to attract the attention of two diners in the dining room, one of them is a middle-aged man, one is a small descendant, they drink wine and eat vegetables, from time to time obliquely glance at Lingyu them, Lingyu pretends not to see, after eating to hurry.

The innkeeper said: "Guest officer, I advise you to hurry tomorrow morning." Lingyu said: "Why?" Xiao Er said: "From our Longpan Town, there are no people on the mountain forest road for more than 100 miles, you can't walk out of the mountains and forests for half a day, there are not only strong people in the mountains and forests, but also wolves, insects, tigers and leopards, which are very dangerous. Lingyu said: "So that's the case, we are not afraid of strong people, because we don't have much money, we just transport the bones of our relatives back to our hometown, wolves, insects, tigers and leopards are really terrifying, okay! We will stay here for a night and then go tomorrow morning, you arrange a few rooms for us." Xiao Er said: "Okay, you go to the shopkeeper to register!"

Lingyu asked the two coachmen to go to the guest room to rest, and then said to Chang Yue'e and the others, "You all go to the guest room to rest! Chang Yue'e said: "Brother Yu, we are pretending to be your entourage, how can we ask the master to guard outside, but the subordinates go to the first-class guest room to sit down." Lingyu said: "That's what you said." Chang Yue'e said: "In this way, we will take turns to be on duty and guard, each for an hour." Lingyu said: "It's okay, you can sit in the carriage and guard it." Chang Yue'e said, "Okay then! I'll be the first on duty." Lingyu said to Xiang'er and the three of them: "You go to the guest room to rest first, and I will accompany Sister E here for a while." Xiang'er and the others responded and walked towards the guest room.

The middle-aged man said: "Goubao, what do you say?" Xiaohousheng Goubao said: "I think they are hiding people's eyes and ears, I think there must be good things in it." Ma Sanye said: "The kid has made progress, the same as I thought, and I want to see what is good." (To be continued.) )
