Good luck and marriage: marrying the governor of Dongchang

Chapter 318 Gao Junshen's Road to Destruction 3
On the day of Lu Huaiqi's funeral, civil and military officials gathered in the Lu residence early in the morning.Shen Qingli was dressed in sackcloth, with a sad and sad expression the whole time.Xiao Chengxi is young, although she still can't fully understand the pain of parting from life and death, but looking at her mother's appearance that life is worse than death, she also vaguely guessed something bad.

Being held tightly in Zhu's arms, she raised her head and asked, "Grandmother, is daddy going to lie there forever?" Ah Chi told her that her daddy would always be lying there in the future, and she couldn't accompany him like before. Watching her play and frolick.

Mrs. Zhu couldn't help being sad, she wiped away her tears, and didn't answer Xiao Chengxi's words directly, "Xi'er, be good! From now on, you must listen to your mother, she... is our support."

What Zhu told her before was that her father was the support of their family, but now she said that her mother would be their support.After thinking about Zhu Shi's words carefully, Xiao Chengxi vaguely understood a little bit.

Her father will really lie in that narrow and small box forever.

The crystal tears could not stop the big ones from falling down.

Xiao Chengxi broke free from Zhu Shi's arms, threw herself into Shen Qingli's arms, and burst into tears.

Shen Qingli hugged the softness in her arms tightly, and couldn't help looking at the official coffin again, her heart was unbearable, and tears welled up uncontrollably.

Over the years, Lu Huaiqi has built a world for them.

They lived comfortably in the world he propped up.

But after all, he is just a person, even a great man is still a human being.He may also be born, old, sick, and die, or he may fall down.

As a wife, she is so incompetent that she still cannot help him punish his murderer.

What a failure.

Tong Wanjin is in charge of entertaining the guests who come to express their condolences.Everyone looked over, and Tong Wanjin's expression was always painful and sad.When it was time for the funeral, mourning and joy lingered in the entire Lu residence for a while.

On the street where the Lu Mansion is located, countless people spontaneously came to see Lu Huaiqi off for the last time.

Lu Huaiqi, who was more expensive than one person and under ten thousand people, was finally buried in a cemetery in the southern suburbs.Tong Wanjin had done calculations with a feng shui master before, and the feng shui master said that Lu Huaiqi's horoscope is heavy, and it is excellent to be buried in a place with mountains and water in the southern suburbs.

The final funeral was shrouded in an atmosphere of mourning and grief.Shen Qingli held the official coffin to prevent people from burying Lu Huaiqi.Zhu Shi and Tong Wanjin kept persuading him, but Shen Qingli still didn't let go.

Seeing that the sky is getting darker, and the cold rain is gradually falling in the sky.

Xiao Chengxi, who had been sitting silently beside Shen Qingli, was taken away by Mrs. Zhu.

Ah Zhi's oil-paper umbrella propped up a rain-free world for her, Xiao Chengxi turned her head and showed a sad smile to Ah Zhi.

"Brother Ah Ling, Xi'er's father will never be able to play with Xi'er anymore. Xi'er is so scared..."

There was a sad expression on his immature face.

To her, the words "Lu Huaiqi" ​​are a kind of honor and a sense of security.

To put it bluntly, one day when Lu Huaiqi is alive, she can become the most honorable woman in Xiliang, and everyone will respect and take care of her because of her status.After she could, she could vaguely think that her life would never be as easy as before.She can no longer be willful, no longer greedy for fun, she must be well-behaved, and be her mother's right-hand man.

Overnight, she will be forced to grow up.

She is only five years old, and these burdens are too heavy for her.She is afraid, afraid...

She wanted some encouragement from those she trusted the most.

Ah Zhi looked at her, his curled eyelashes drooping slightly, covering the rolling emotion in his eyes.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Xi'er, what happened today may just be a small hurdle in your life. There will be more painful things waiting for you in the future. You are Lu Jiuqian's daughter, you Destined to bear more than others."

These words... just made Xiao Chengxi feel even more sad.

Aran held an umbrella in his hand and did not open it.He had been standing not far from Xiao Chengxi and the others.He could hear the conversation between Xiao Chengxi and Ah Zhi.

As soon as Ah Zhi finished speaking, he couldn't help but frowned.

Not knowing where he borrowed the courage, he suddenly moved to Xiao Chengxi's side, clutching the oil-paper umbrella in his hand.

"Xi'er, don't be afraid, I'm here. I promised Nine Thousand Years, and no matter what happens in the future, my life will be yours and you will belong to Nine Thousand Years Mansion." The rain from the sky had already wet his whole body, and the raindrops It dripped down his hair and dripped onto his cheeks.After he said these words, both lips trembled uncontrollably.

I don't know if I was frozen by the rain or nervous.

Little Chengxi stared straight at him with big black eyes, this brat who always put on a stinky face and always sued his mother about her... Why did he suddenly say such touching words.

It made her feel soft, and she was too embarrassed to continue hating him in the future.

asshole!

A Ran became more and more nervous when he was stared at by Xiao Chengxi, he bit his lip, and directly thrust the oil-paper umbrella he was holding into Xiao Chengxi's hand roughly.Fearing that Xiao Chengxi would reject him, he turned around and ran directly to the butler of Lu's house, and took the initiative to help the butler of Lu's house with other funeral matters.

Xiao Chengxi looked down at the umbrella in her hand, then looked up at the oil-paper umbrella propped up for her above her head.

One will hold an umbrella for her on a rainy day, and the other will just give her an umbrella.

If it was in the past, she would have liked the bird of prey who held the umbrella for her more.For the umbrella that Aransai gave him, he would only dislike and dislike him.But this time, her mood was different, and she suddenly felt that Aran who gave him the umbrella seemed cuter.

Holding an umbrella in his hand, Ah Chi straightened his back.

He vaguely felt that Xiao Chengxi looked at A Ran no longer as indifferently as before.

A burst of tumbling floated towards the sky above Liang Jingcheng.The patter of rain was followed by torrential rain.During the heavy rain, Shen Qingli was forcibly knocked unconscious and sent away from Lu Huaiqi's coffin.

Finally, in the evening, Lu Huaiqi's funeral was coming to an end.

That night, the torrential rain did not stop.

In Liang Jingcheng, Gao Junshen stayed up all night.He held white chess in his left hand and black chess in his right, and played a game by himself.After a few games, he found that the more he played, the worse his mood became.At the back, with a swipe of Su's hand, all the pieces on the chessboard were simply slapped down.

At this moment, footsteps came from outside the door, Gao Junshen raised his eyebrows, and his whole body stiffened involuntarily.

The door was pushed open, and a gust of cold air blew in with raindrops.He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at his confidant who walked in.

The confidant wiped the water from his face, met his eyes and said excitedly, "Master, our people secretly dug up Lu Huaiqi's tomb, it was Lu Huaiqi himself!"

Gao Junshen's eyes sparkled in an instant, "But are you sure? It can't be a trick to cover others with Lu Huaiqi's human skin to pretend to be a dead body?"

The teeth of his confidant's smile were all exposed, "Master, don't worry. It's not fake, it's really Lu Huaiqi. We wanted to tear his body into pieces. But it may have alarmed the guards of the tomb. They Habayashi was recruited. We had to retreat early." When the confidant said this, there was obvious disappointment in his eyes.

Gao Junshen should have been ecstatic after hearing what his confidant said.

But his suspicious nature still made him a little bit unbelievable that everything that happened in front of him was real.

Is Lu Huaiqi really dead this time?You won't cheat death like before, will you?
His slender fingers tapped the chessboard very rhythmically. After he meditated for a while, he said to his confidant coldly, "Let's have a look again." He was really scared by his eldest son.Once bitten by a snake for ten years, I am afraid of well ropes.

Gao Junshen's confidants did not dare to disobey Gao Junshen's order.

In the following days, Tong Wanjin found Jia Zhen.Jia Zhen entered the palace to detoxify the emperor.The emperor's health improved day by day.As the emperor's health improved, some people among the officials began to write letters hoping that the emperor could come out and preside over the political situation again.

The emperor delegated power to a few powerful ministers on the grounds of physical discomfort.

After the court was guarded by several powerful officials, the situation in the court changed unexpectedly.Without a leader like Lu Huaiqi, several powerful officials began to go their own way.About half a month later, bold officials began to appeal to the emperor to impeach Lu Huaiqi for the "crime" he committed while he was alive.

The official who wrote the letter finally said that Lu Huaiqi was gone now, but his wife and daughter were still alive.Since Lu Huai committed a crime, his wife and daughter should be relegated to the ranks of Nüchang and sent to the frontier.

Such a proposal directly echoes the old adage that "a man's tea is cold".

Fortunately, the emperor was angry this time.After he scolded the official, he demoted him to a commoner.

The emperor didn't come out to preside over the political situation, but he was willing to punish his officials for Lu Huaiqi's woman.The emperor's attitude made it clear that he wanted to protect Shen Qingli.The civil and military officials were embarrassed to find Shen Qingli's mother and daughter again for a while.

As for the Lu residence, they also closed their doors to thank guests from now on.

Shen Qingli brought her daughter and mother to eat and drink, and gradually faded out of people's sight.

It is said that Tong Wanjin was afraid of hurting the scene, so he also left Liang Jingcheng to do business elsewhere.

More than two months later, Gao Junshen received news from Bei Qi urging him to return to the palace quickly.His confidant finally couldn't bear his temper, and persuaded him, "Master, we have waited so long. Judging from various sources, Lu Huaiqi is really dead." Infighting.Those policies implemented by Lu Huaiqi during his lifetime were either abolished or changed.

The commanders of several barracks in Xiliang have also changed, and the new commanders are not from Lu Huaiqi.

These commanders are naturally not as good at controlling the barracks as the original commanders.

In short, the situation in Xiliang as a whole is gradually getting worse.

If they don't do it again, they missed this opportunity, and there will never be such a good opportunity in the future.

"Chuan Gu's order, quickly mobilize soldiers and horses to guard the border. Wait for Gu's order, and march into Xiliang."
