Rebirth of the Poisoned Woman to Goodness

Chapter 168

After Hua Yin was reprimanded by her mother, she really didn't have the energy to feel ashamed and self-reflecting. She first went to the kitchen and saw that the food was hot inside, so she wolfed down her stomach first, wiped her mouth after eating, and picked up a few more bowls. I didn't use a tray for such a small dish, I just held it in my hand, went out, and saw the servants coming and going, so I stopped and said: "Quickly stop busy, eat breakfast first, I have a busy day." .” After saying that, he walked directly to the mourning hall.

What surprised her was that Nangong Jin didn't kneel in the mourning hall, but stood under the eaves of the corridor, looking up and looking at something.

Seeing that he was finally willing to come out, Huayin was very happy from the bottom of her heart. She stepped forward and handed the rice porridge to him.Nangong Jin saw her, but she didn't want to talk to her, and Hua Yin didn't wait long. Seeing that he ignored her, she directly pulled him to the next room, pressed him on the round stool, and was about to kiss her like yesterday. Hey, but Nangong opened it with a wave of his hand. Huayin was startled gently, and suddenly heard shouts from outside, "Doctor Hua, Doctor Hua..." Huayin stuffed the porcelain bowl into his hand, and repeatedly urged, "" If you are sad, you are sad, but your body is still your own.”

As soon as Huayin left the door, a servant said: "Mingyipu has brought paper-made chariots and horses."

Hua Yin let out a cry, and followed to see.Today is the third day when the prime minister left. The folklore of the Great Zhou Dynasty said that after three days of death, the dead soul will go to the underworld, or be welcomed by gods, Buddhas, or the envoys of gods and Buddhas. Therefore, this day is called " "Welcome Three" is also called "Send Three".On the third day, there will be a drumming and music performance to welcome relatives and friends to express their condolences. This day will only be more hectic than yesterday. Fortunately, Huayin spent a few years with the Queen Mother in the palace in her last life, and then married into Prince Lie’s mansion for two years. Although I haven't handled everything, I have seen big battles, and I don't panic. I have made up my mind and waited for it. I just hope that there will be no troubles, and don't make outsiders laugh.

Sure enough, just a moment after Maozheng, people successively prepared sacrificial rites and sent them over.As soon as the monks arrived, Huayin hurriedly ordered someone to lead them to open the altar and chant scriptures to save the dead.

What made Huayin feel relieved was that Nangong Jin started to take care of everything related to the funeral. Although she still likes to be in a daze, it is much better than kneeling in the mourning hall and not saying anything.

At about a quarter of an hour, Hua Yin was receiving guests in the mansion, when suddenly he heard thunderous cries from outside, both Nangong Jin and Hua Yin were taken aback, and the servants rushed forward, "Master, go and have a look outside the mansion. "The two of them didn't know what happened, and there were other guests who came to express their condolences, and followed them curiously.

Because the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion was wide open, before he could go out, he saw a group of people kneeling at the door. Hua Yin walked out quickly, and Bai Wangwang couldn't see his head. Occasionally contracted a serious illness and died suddenly", so he rushed to tell each other, and spontaneously came to express condolences for the prime minister Dai Xiao.

Seeing those people crying loudly, with sincere grief on their faces, Hua Yin couldn't help but get red-eyed.Nangong Yuan has been an official in Dazhou for so many years. He has been diligent and cautious, set an example, loved the people like a son, and was deeply loved by the people. Now that he is gone, the people have lost a good parent and official, and grief is inevitable.

Everyone was howling, when suddenly they heard someone beeping a gong, Hua Yin looked like a royal guard of honor from afar.Because the way ahead was blocked, the guard of honor would not be able to pass for a while, so a group of ten young eunuchs first stepped on the crowd and squeezed over, holding sacrificial offerings in their hands.When he got close, the leader waved his whisk and spoke respectfully. Hua Yinting probably meant that the old Empress Dowager had been in poor health. , specially entrusted Concubine Wan to come to pay homage.The eunuch in this room had just finished speaking, and the clever young man flew to the second gate of the backyard to inform the girl inside to tell his wife to come and pick him up.

After the common people made way, Concubine Wan heard crying from inside the sedan chair before getting out of the sedan chair. She knelt down and bowed down. As a righteous daughter, Concubine Wan dared not ask Nangong Jin to kneel herself. Wiping his tears, he cried and mourned, "My adoptive father is suffering so much. How can he be gone without a good person? This disease is too severe..."

Nangong Jinben stood aside, and snorted coldly when she heard the words, very softly, Concubine Wan had been paying attention to Nangong's reaction, and when she heard the sound, she glanced at him guiltily, seeing his haggard face, sunken eye sockets, lips It turned pale, as if it had died once, and I couldn't help staring at it for a while longer, there was a hint of worry in my eyes, and even mixed with other emotions.

Huayin's mind was delicate, and after a while, she understood that Nangong Jin, apart from being cold, vicious and cruel by nature, also had many obvious advantages, such as good brains, good martial arts, and better appearance.Concubine Wan is a pawn that he has carefully cultivated for several years. It is inevitable that a slave will become a little obsessed with looking up to his master for a long time.Who would a young girl like more, a young talent in his late twenties, or an old man in his fifties?Does anyone have to guess?

Perhaps it was because Hua Yin's eyes were too probing, Concubine Wan turned her head to look at her, but Nangong Jin held Hua Yin's head at this moment, forcing her to bend down and bow her head.For a woman from the Tian family, how can outside men look directly at her phoenix face?This is the crime of beheading.

The Jin family of Nangong invited Concubine Wan to the back room, and was ordered to sit with her until three o'clock you, the palace staff dutifully reminded her a few times, and Concubine Wan got up to leave with tears in her eyes.She was about to stand up, Wenzhu had quick eyesight and quick hands, and rushed to help her, but pushed Wanfei's personal maid aside.Wenzhu held Wanfei's hand directly, and the latter was stunned for a moment, and then an imperceptible smile flashed across his face, slowly clenched into a fist in Wenzhu's palm, and retracted into his wide sleeves.All the orders got up to see them off, and the group was sent outside the gate. Concubine Wan looked back three times, as if she was comforting Nangong Jin's mourning, but her eyes were looking for people, but she didn't see the figure of the person she wanted to see, but she saw Hua Yin Busy before and after running.Concubine Wan looked away, and squeezed the ball of paper in her hand even tighter.

At night, Huayin was checking the inventory and doing accounts in the warehouse, when Karasuma rushed over and said, "You, go to the mourning hall." Huayin blinked and said, "Wait a minute, I'm not done yet. Karasuma snatched the ledger from her hand, and ordered: "Leave these to the housekeeper, and you go to the mourning hall to keep watch." Huayin was startled, and she didn't dare to say any more, and went out of the warehouse.

In the mourning hall, Nangong Jin was still guarding the spirit, and a few servants waited outside the door but did not dare to enter.Hua Yin passed them, first went in and put three sticks of incense on the prime minister's coffin, and then kowtowed four times before kneeling down beside Nangong Jin.

"I dreamed of my uncle this morning," Hua Yin said suddenly, "I chased him all the way out, he said a few words to me, and suddenly a golden light flashed, and he ascended to the sky in that golden light, I think He must have become a Buddha."

"..."

"How should I put it, this person is doomed to die from birth, and no one can escape it. The reason why it makes the living feel unbearable is because there is no time to say goodbye. But life is like this, day and night Misfortunes and fortunes are ever-changing, and no one can control our fate. We can only cherish what is in front of us. For example, I can still chat with you about life and death. Fortunately, one day, if I am not careful, I will encounter misfortune and life will not be known... "

Nangong Jin paused, with a cool tone, "Is it fun to curse yourself like this?"

Hua Yin scratched her hair awkwardly, "I'm just making an analogy."

"The dead are gone, and those who come can still be pursued." He sighed, how could he not understand this?

Just at this moment, someone came in, Huayin looked up, her expression changed immediately, she saw that Huarong was holding a handkerchief with one hand, her eyes were red and swollen, she came to the front, after offering incense, she also found a futon and knelt down .

Nangong Jin was startled, and was about to speak when Hua Yin said first, "Mother, what are you doing?"

"Shou Ling," Hua Rong said, wiping away tears.

"Mrs. Hua..." Nangong Jin was about to speak.

Hua Yin hurriedly said again: "Take a rest quickly, you are so old, you are so busy during the day, and if you make troubles at night, don't cause trouble."

"It's okay, isn't my son a doctor? You can cure all other difficult and miscellaneous diseases, but you can't take care of my mother's minor ailments?" stand up.

Then Nangong Jin and Lan Zhu also came over, and it was Nangong Jin who spoke and asked Hua Rong and Hua Yin to go and rest, and the matter came to an end.

After all, he was his own son, so the mother didn't feel sorry for her. After Nangong Jin called in a few guards outside the house, she asked Nangong Jin to go back to rest, but he shook his head.Nangong Jin sighed, but did not force him, and let him go.

After going out, there was no one around, so Huayin couldn't help complaining, "Mother, what are you doing?"

Huayin hurriedly covered Huarong's mouth when she heard it, and said nervously: "Mother, do you want me to die? Have you forgotten what Master Yuan said?"

The next day, the fourth day of the first seven days, the head of the Ouchi led a mighty group of people to bring the emperor's imperial decree. First, he talked about the scene, and then emphasized that the old prime minister died of illness, and died suddenly. Even the people are in pain like digging their hearts out. In order to thank the prime minister for his tireless work for the country and the people for decades, they posthumously named Nan Gongyuan the first-class good country prince, and added his wife Jin as the first-class good country prince. Jianguo Temple will stop for 81 days in September and September. In these 81 days, except for the first seven days of staying in Xiangfu, Jianguo Temple will no longer receive Brother Xiang. The temple will remove the little novice monk who sweeps and sprinkles rough envoys. Sit in two shifts, day and night for the prime minister to save the souls of the dead.After 74 days, the ground was buried.

Nangong Jin received the imperial decree. Although the chief steward had a look of grief on his face, he couldn't hide his flattering joy, and said: "Master Minister, this is a great honor. Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, no minister except the royal family and princes has the honor to stop here." Lingjianguo Temple, and Kuanglunhe Temple closed the temple gates and prayed together, the prime minister is the pillar of the country, the emperor's grace is mighty."

Nangong Jin's expression was indifferent, and it took a while before he replied, "Really?"

The general manager was bored, so he didn't say any more, after he declared his will, he went back to the palace to return his orders.

Until the first seven days, everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion made preparations early in the morning, planning to send the Prime Minister's official coffin to Jianguo Temple ten miles away in the suburbs of Beijing before noon.

Nangong Jin and Hua Yin put on sackcloth and filial piety together, and helped the coffin to send each other off.

When they arrived at Jianguo Temple, the host waited for a long time, and greeted him from a distance. Nangong Jin was not in the mood to be courteous with him, so Hua Yin took care of everything.After the coffin was parked, Hua Yin saw that Nangong Jin was staying beside the official coffin and had no intention of leaving, so she quietly discussed with Nangong Jin's family, asking her to go back with everyone first, and then she accompanied Nangong Jin to say goodbye to the prime minister.

After Huayin went back, she saw that Nangong Jin was still the same as the first day, with her head resting on the official coffin, kneeling, but she didn't speak, she found a place to kneel, closed her eyes, and silently recited scriptures in her heart.After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly felt a pain in her shoulder, and then there was the sound of a small stone rolling. She turned her head and saw Wu Zing protruding her head here, holding a small stone in her hand.Hua Yin stood up quietly and walked out.As soon as her front foot stepped out of the threshold, Wu Ting grabbed her, dragged her aside, and said anxiously: "The slave just saw that Prince Lie's son was stopped by Mr. Wu in the front hall. Mr. Wu drew his sword without saying a word. Fighting with the prince, the servant was afraid that something would happen, so he came to invite..."

When Hua Yin heard it, she broke out in a cold sweat, and said to herself, "Why is he here at this juncture!"
