Chapter 652: Mourning [Please give me a monthly ticket]


    Chen Tang fiddled with his fingers as he was about to destroy the wick.


    Put the lamp oil into the lamp with a small spoon and said as if chatting: “Oh, Wangchao, why do you think that some people think that ''It''s better to live than to die well'', but some people can scare themselves to death? As long as Qiu Wenyan returns with a thick face, can Qiu Dalang treat him blatantly? Not to mention killing him. If he rolls around and refuses to be escorted back tomorrow, and drags him until his classmates send him a redeem silver, he can live..."


    Just have to be thick-skinned.


    Gu Chi gave the answer: "It''s because of his personality."


    Qiu Cheng''s personality is destined to be forced to death.


    "The lord is afraid that he doesn''t know much about Qiu Cheng''s experience when he was young. He came from a famous Qiu family, and the burden brought by Qiu''s famous name is far greater than glory. Outsiders think that the children of aristocratic families should be furious and angry, and they should spend a lot of money, but they don''t know that Qiu Cheng is short of money, and he is unwilling to show his fear of crying and poverty, so he can only hold on. Over time, some things will penetrate deep into the bone marrow."


    The more refined Qiucheng''s external packaging is, the more praise he receives, and the higher he is, the less he is unable to face the embarrassing reality.


    Gu Chi said indifferently: "It is proud and inferior, confident and conceited. He cannot, and he will not make any trouble to his lord and beg for life. He is also a loser. It is better to die if he is facing the ridicule of his clan members and his brother Qiu Dalang''s alms."


    "For such people, living is more difficult than committing suicide."


    Chen Tang put the spoon neatly, put the brightened lamp back in place, picked up the book on the top of the table and opened it: "Mr. Wen Yan suddenly heard that his brother did not remember his previous grudges and repaid his grievances with kindness. He sent him a redeemable silver to buy him freely. He reflected on his past and felt ashamed. He drew his sword tonight and committed suicide... I wonder if Qiu Dalang was sad or happy when he heard this news?"


    Gu Chi: "It''s not important."


    What’s important is that Qiu Wenyan died and the money was obtained.


    "Yes, I have an explanation for Gongxiqiu."


    This guy is stunned when he smiles, as if he is simple and harmless, but don’t forget that his bravery totem is a snake. Qiucheng passionately opened the barge on the city tower to greet the Duke Xiqiu people. This guy has always remembered it. Before he recovered, he wanted to kill Qiucheng with his own hands. It was just because Qiu Cheng was already a prisoner of Chen Tang, so he did not do excessive behavior because he had concerns.


    When he was sent away, he was still muttering Qiu Cheng''s head. When Chen Tang heard that he had got Qiu Wenyan''s redemption silver, he tried to kill him, so he reluctantly gave up. Qiu Cheng may not have to die, but Chen Tang needs to kill the chicken to warn the monkey, so he will die.


    You have to die, but you cannot die because of Chen Tang.


    Just as I read two lines of words, the sound of panic footsteps came from outside the conference hall. The little official who arrived had not breathed his breath, bowed and said, "Lord, Mr. Wen Yan committed suicide, and the doctor was powerless to turn things around by then."


    Pai!


    Gu Chi was so shocked that he let go, and the book skeleton smashed the table.


    After a while, the little official heard the Lord’s peaceful response: “I understand, what will happen if Mr. Wen Yan left behind?”


    The minor official replied: "Mr. Wen Yan ordered his wife to remarry."


    Chen Tang paused with the hand of the book.


    "…It''s barely considered a person with a temperament." Some leaders of the forces were defeated, fearing that their women would be affected by others, so they took them to the ground with one sword to be a ghost couple. In comparison, Qiu Wenyan did a personal job.


    "Lord, will this matter be mourned?"


    It took Gu Chi a while to "recover".


    Chen Tang pondered for a moment before speaking: "Let''s go to the funeral. I will quickly order people to set up a mourning hall and make the past and consequences public. I will let Duke Wenyan come to mourn. When the spirits are stopped for seven days, I will **** his relatives to help the spirits return to their hometown and the fallen leaves return to their roots."


    The mourning hall was soon arranged.


    The old minister Qiu Cheng, who was still in Xiaocheng, received news that his old master committed suicide that night. They had known each other for more than a year or two, and they knew each other''s temperament well. He can do this. Everyone did not know the details of Chen Tang asking the clerk to pass the message, so they did not doubt it. Hearing Chen Tang allowed them to go to the mourning, some of them set off immediately, and the rest were dragged until the daytime or simply did not come.


    White banners were hung everywhere in Tangyuan.


    By the time everyone arrived, Qiu Cheng''s body had been cleaned. The eldest lady changed his favorite clothes and applied light powder to him. Even the extremely deep scar on her neck was carefully sewn with an embroidery needle, and there was no obvious stitch. Qiu Cheng''s eyes were closed and his hands were closed in front of his chest. At first glance, he looked like a stranger. However, the eldest lady who worked hard for this looked more like a dead person.


    Qiu Cheng''s children knelt all over the ground.


    The youngest one didn''t know what happened, the oldest one knew life and death, with a confused and panic about the future, and the other one cried loudly. Seeing this, several old ministers who rushed over cried endlessly. The eldest lady knew them both.


    The voice was awkward: "Since Wen Yan left, he went there completely, and he didn''t want to drag you down. Why do you have to come here?"


    Some of them refused to descend to Tangtang, and could only wait for the redemption of their own money to be sent, or could not wait for the redemption of their own money to be redeemed, and could only roll up their sleeves to earn work hours. Some of them had already changed their homes. Especially the latter, are they not afraid of attracting Chen Tang’s suspicion when they come here?


    "What did the mistress say these words? Who is afraid of these?" The one who spoke was a burly and strong man, and the only brave warrior among the people who put down his figure to earn work hours. Because I slept in a big bed every day, I also exuded a fermented sweat odor. When he received the news, he called out the war horse and galloped over, "How come this lord, why is this?"


    Keep the green mountains without worrying about burning firewood!


    The eldest lady blushed her eyes and wiped her tears with a squid, saying: "He has such a temper... how can he persuade him to move?"


    Young couples know each other best.


    "Oh, lord... he had known, if he had known that was the last one..." The burly and strong man regretted and wiped tears on his back, "I wouldn''t argue with my lord... say such a harsh word..."


    The eldest lady interrupted him: "Put a stick of incense."


    The "dispute" he mentioned happened not long ago.


    Miao Shu''s body was parked in the courtyard of Tangyuan, and no one paid attention to it and hung for five or six days. He accidentally learned the news from his old staff. He rushed over with a bad temper and asked Qiu Cheng when he was so cold and ruthless. Not to mention that Miao Shu was once his old minister and Qiu Cheng''s concubine, no matter how they said that they were a couple, how could they be together? After death, he didn''t even deserve a thin coffin? How could Qiucheng stand such a question?


    Even though she said that this was a family matter, Miao Shu was an inner relative, and her identity was sensitive, and how to deal with it had nothing to do with the outside man. She also said that Chen Tang''s move had other profound meanings, and that his current situation could not be done casually. The burly and strong man doesn''t listen to these roundabout things, and he doesn''t even have a mourning hall. He throws people in the patio and is watched by people coming and going every day. It''s a shame and humiliation!


    The burly and strong man held a knife and said angrily: [The woman is a life-saving grace to help her job. How can she watch her so desolate behind her? Since the lord is unwilling to take risks, it is up to the benevolent official to take this lead! All the consequences will be considered as humble! 】


    At that time, he was very angry that Qiucheng was weak and cold.


    Now that people die, the lights are gone, I can’t care about these things.


    Everyone came to burn incense in turn, and one of them was particularly eye-catching. He limped his feet, hung his right hand on his chest, and looked at his face. It was obvious that he had both qi and blood deficiency, and he should have had serious injuries but had not healed. He struggled to incense Qiucheng and asked the servant for the cushion to prepare to guard the old master.


    The eldest lady hurriedly said, "Sir, it''s still..."


    He refused: "It''s not in the way."


    The eldest lady had to agree.


    He asked: "Why did Mr. Wen Yan suddenly develop ambition to die?"


    The eldest lady repeated the words she had said many times with a numb expression. The next sentence of the other people who came to mourn her was to comfort her and follow the changes. Only this person continued to ask: "Madam, can you tell me in detail about the content of the message that the minor official sent?"


    The eldest lady was puzzled, but she still did it.


    The scribe chewed the eldest lady''s reply several times.


    He lowered his eyebrows and eyes, not seeing much emotion.


    The eldest lady asked, "Yes, what''s wrong?"


    The scribe shook his head: "...No."


    After two or three words, a rumor came from outside Tangyuan, and the county magistrate Chen Tang came to mourn. The mourning hall was silent for a moment until Chen Tang, wearing a plain casual dress, appeared. Gu Chi and Liao Jia followed each other, and Liao Jia rarely changed her blue straight hem.


    Everyone saluted.


    Everyone: "I have met Mr. Shen."


    The lame clerk said, "I have met my lord."


    "You don''t need to be polite." Chen Tang returned the tribute, ignoring the awkward atmosphere in the air, turned around and comforted the eldest lady in a deep voice, "Madam, please feel sorry for me. If Mr. Wen Yan had a spirit in the sky, I wouldn''t want his wife to be so sad."


    The eldest lady gave a blessing.


    No matter what others would think, Chen Tang lit incense, looked at Qiu Cheng in the coffin, and said a little bit of blame: "Although I don''t kill Boren, Boren will die by me. The world is unstable, the war is not over, and all living things are suffering... Wen Yangong, go all the way."


    As the victor, Chen Tang doesn’t need to say too many scenes, as it is easy to cause hatred. Gu Chi and Liao Jia also sang the incense, and Gu Chi listened to everyone''s voice expressionlessly.


    The content is mostly ridicule such as "At this time, I come to pretend to be compassionate" and "I come to the funeral hall to watch jokes". Some people also whispered, "I am betray this good friend in the underworld. Is it true? Is it false?"


    Gu Chi remained silent.


    Take the opportunity to look at that place.


    The scholar hangs his right hand on his chest, expressionless.


    He has some impression of this person.


    Then he winked with Liao Jia.


    These two are praying to good friends circles, with similar smells and natural tacit understanding. Liao Jia understands it and glances at him secretly. He had an impression of this lame scholar. It is said that he was the literary scholar who Qiu Cheng relied most, but he was also the first to change his family.


    The lord asked him if he would like to use it for himself. The other party did not think about it for long before agreeing. It was just that he was too serious and was still in the recovery stage and had not reported it to the official office. Liao Jia and Gu Chi sent a message to each other: [What''s wrong with this person? 】


    Gu Chi said what he heard.


    Liao Jia heard Gu Chi’s doubts and said: [You didn’t check him personally? Just this sentence can only show that he has a good relationship with Qiu Wenyan and does not mean anything. If you are worried, find an opportunity to let him go peacefully! 】


    Gu Chi: […]


    Gu Chi couldn''t help rolling his eyes inside.


    [When did you say you wanted to kill him? If he died, how could the old subordinates of Qiu Cheng who surrendered would be truly at ease? Let''s take a look again. 】


    ?_(:з」∠)_


    ??I took a shower happily yesterday, and I felt a bitter feeling in the morning. When I was typing, my brain was still full of pain.


    ??PS: Although I did not kill Boren, Boren died by me. In the underworld, I will let this good friend down! —Shu Jin


    ??PPS: Don’t you think the plot of Xu Ke in the Empress’s first life is also quite good? (Ahem, this sentence is asked by old readers. New readers should be a surprise and look forward to the knife...ah no, little candy.)


    PPPS: Do you feel that the chapters have grown a little a little bit lately? Hehe, Shiitake mushrooms are slowly looking for update status. When the confinement period is over, we will work hard to stabilize the double update and two-in-one...


    ??
