Chapter 524 Returning to the capital
In the resident camp.

Xuanyuan Che had already ordered the white lanterns to be set up.Shi Yunqing went back to the capital to report the news, and he personally went to the local coffin shop to buy the best coffin to contain the corpse.

Xue Qi was also brought to Xuanyuanfen's coffin. When he saw Xuanyuanfen lying in the coffin as if asleep, Xue Qi knelt down on the ground.

In addition to the annoyance and depression, he was also somewhat grateful.

What annoyed Xuanyuan Fen was that he died like this, which further strengthened his reputation for killing his wife. Fortunately, the emperor's punishment for him was kept secret, and now that he was carrying the coffin back to Beijing, it would not arouse others' suspicion.

The team organized and prepared for the departure in half a day.On the third day, I met the imperial doctor sent by the emperor.

On the way, the imperial doctor had already met Shi Yunqing and learned of Xuanyuanfen's death.Coming here now is just a formality.

Especially when they saw Bitao whose crying voice was hoarse, whose eyes were like peaches, and Xue Qi who seemed to have been beaten by frost and remained silent, these people sighed inwardly, and only opened the coffin to take a look. It's over.

Seeing that the matter here is basically over, Xuanyuan Che is worried about Wei Qingluan and Xuanyuanfen, and his heart is no longer here, and he just waits to return to the capital and quickly hand in the errand.

So the speed of going back is also accelerated.

A day later, he ran into Shi Yunqing eighty miles away from the capital.

Seeing that Shi Yunqing who originally left with only a few people led hundreds of people in such a mighty way this time, Xuanyuan Che couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

But when he saw the little eunuch with the imperial edict, he didn't think much about it.He also thought that the emperor was concerned about the death of Xuanyuan Fen guest and felt pity in his heart, so he specially sent more people to greet him.

So I didn't pay much attention to Shi Yunqing who seemed to have something to say, but seemed hard to say.

The little eunuch who delivered the decree didn't write any ink, and immediately read the imperial decree when he saw that everyone was there.

The emperor first had a few words of sympathy for Xuanyuan Fen, and then said that since she was married as a woman, the funeral would naturally be handled by the Xue family.He ordered Xue Qi to bury Xuanyuan Fen in the Xue family's old grave in the capital, and to recuperate for a while.

As for Xue Qi's future, there was no indication.But the person involved understands that he may just have to wait.

The emperor didn't say what to do with Xuanyuan Che, but Xuanyuan Che was thinking in his heart how to find a reason to find Wei Qingluan and Xuanyuanfen.It would be best to be able to escort Xuanyuanfen for a certain distance, if not, it would be good to go back to Beijing with Wei Qingluan.

But before he could think of a reason, two people who shouldn't be here appeared in front of him.

"Fifth brother," the pretty voice was unfamiliar, but Xuanyuan Che's face immediately turned down when he looked up and saw Liu Ruyu with a happy face.

"What does Miss Liu mean?" He frowned and looked at Liu Ruyu, and said calmly, "I don't think now is the time to be happy."

"Fifth prince," Liu Ruyu's face turned pale, she was just happy after seeing him, but how could he let him distort her meaning?She also feels unfortunate about Xuanyuanfen, okay?
Because of being frightened, Liu Ruyu's voice raised slightly, which immediately alarmed Wanyan Hongxia who was staring at Shi Yunqing next to her.

Yesterday the Empress Dowager announced that Wanyan Hongxia had entered the palace to speak, and happened to learn about Xuanyuanfen's sudden death.The queen mother said that Liu Ruyu and Xuanyuanfen were very close before, and asked her to accompany Xuanyuanfen for the last ride.

Wanyan Hongxia understood in her heart that the reason why the Empress Dowager let herself into the palace was to warn herself not to beat Xuanyuan Che.When I saw my own business, I wanted to leave.But I didn't expect the Queen Mother to let her accompany Liu Ruyu on such a trip.She also knew why Liu Ruyu was close to Xuanyuan Fen, she clearly wanted to create a chance for Liu Ruyu and Xuanyuan Che to meet each other.However, is it really good for the two of them to develop a relationship at a time like a funeral?

At this time, Wanyan Hongxia was secretly happy when she saw Xuanyuan Che's cold face towards Liu Ruyu.Damn, who knows that someone has a sweetheart and is still chasing after him.Have you been pissed off?
Anyway, ever since her elder brother told her not to pester Xuanyuan Che anymore, Wanyan Hongxia had already lost her mind for him.Besides, she still wants to make friends with Wei Qingluan, and it is better to hide Xuanyuan Che as far away as possible.

As for her own marriage, Wanyan Hongxia knew that Wanyan Hongji had already made an agreement with the emperor of Dashang, and she could return to Beihu in a few years.At worst, go back and look for it.Anyway, Beihu is different from Da Shang, as long as a woman is capable, she is not afraid of not finding a satisfactory son when she gets older.

Although she disdained Liu Ruyu in her heart, Wanyan Hongxia still stepped forward and silently took Liu Ruyu's arm to show her support for her.

Seeing Wanyan Hongxia, Xuanyuan Che was even more annoyed.What are these one and two for?

What made him even more angry was that Wanyan Hongxia also spoke. She seemed to be comforting Liu Ruyu: "Miss Liu, don't be angry. The Fifth Prince is a person with a cold face and a warm heart. After all, you are also a family member of the Empress Dowager. He must return to the palace." When the time comes, I will definitely send you back together. If you don’t go back to the palace, it’s just right, we can also accompany him around. With the Queen Mother making the decision, is the Fifth Prince the kind of person who disrespects the elders?"

Xuanyuan Che was furious in his heart, and was about to say that he would not care about the two of them, but suddenly his heart moved.Wanyan Hongxia said so firmly, could it be that the queen mother has already made preparations?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the little eunuch who had delivered the decree walking towards this side.

"Fifth prince," the little eunuch smiled at Xuanyuan Che after saluting, "The queen mother is an old man."

"This father-in-law," Xuanyuan Che directly interrupted the little eunuch, and said, "Although Fen'er is married as a woman, we are brothers and sisters after all. Now that the fourth brother is not in the capital, I decided to personally escort her coffin to Xue. Home." Don't want Liu Ruyu and Wanyan Hongxia to follow him.

After finishing speaking, Xuanyuan Che coldly yelled at Shi Yunqing: "I still don't come here, I hate you the most, you flirt with people regardless of the occasion, it's really shameless." After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left.

Shi Yunqing wants to cry but has no tears. Boss, you won't be able to insinuate against your brother?Also, that eye of yours saw Wanyan Hongxia flirting with me, it's obvious that she stared at me as soon as she saw me, okay?
Here, Liu Ruyu came out this time only to show her presence in front of Xuanyuan Che, so naturally she would not follow him to escort Xuanyuanfen's coffin.If she didn't go, it was even more impossible for Wanyan Hongxia to go.

The two had no choice but to return to the palace angrily with the eunuch who announced the decree.

Now that Xuanyuan Che had said those words, in order to prevent people from seeing his flaws, besides, he had to take Bitao and others out of Xue's house, so he had to make this trip.

When he got to a place where no one was around, Shi Yunqing grabbed Xuanyuan Che and said, "I heard you right, the emperor's order is to allow Xue Qi to cultivate for a period of time."

"What are you asking?" Xuanyuan Che was a little impatient, but when he saw Shi Yunqing's wicked smile in a blink of an eye, he twitched the corner of his mouth lightly.

Seeing Xuanyuan Che's appearance, Shi Yunqing understood that he understood what he meant, and said with a sneer, "How to cultivate if you are not injured!" Finally he found a chance to deal with Xue Qi.

On the second day, Xue Qi inexplicably fell off his horse and broke his left leg.

When the couple came out of the capital, they were all fine. When they returned, one died and one was injured, which made the common people have countless suspicions.
