Chapter 1021 Night Festival(1/2)
Mourning Hall...
It's getting late.
The guests who came to pay their respects had left one after another, and the surroundings were chilly and quiet so that only the sound of wind was left.
Yan Shiqing, as the eldest grandson, was respectful of filial piety.
The younger brother Yan Shijie knelt behind him.
After kneeling for a day, my legs were no longer my legs, and I felt my soul floating into the sky.
The Empress Dowager Xiao passed away, and Yan Yuntong was very likely to be unable to catch up.
For funerals, the burden-bearing grandson Yan Shiqing can only take the lead!
The sound of footsteps came from outside.
Yan Shijie raised his head and looked out of the mourning hall.
"Brother, it's my aunt! It's Your Majesty! Your Majesty is here!"
Yan Shiqing slowly raised his head and indeed saw His Majesty.
"See Your Majesty!"
"No gift! You knelt down for a day and go down to rest. I'm here to watch it, it's okay."
"No! As a bearer, I should..."
"Don't you listen to me? Go on! Or do you plan to kneel here for the past seven days, exhaust your hard work, and fight for your life? It's ridiculous! If the Empress Dowager had a spirit in the sky, she would have been so angry that she would die of mercy by your brothers!"
"Brother, let's follow the order!"
Even an adult man couldn't stand it if he knelt down for such a long time.
If you are a little weak, you might really die on the spot.
Yan Shiqing thought for a while and nodded, "I obey the order!"
He wants to stand up.
However, legs are no longer your own legs, how can you stand up?
The servants brought by Yan Yunge were clever and several servants stepped forward, held up the two brothers, and took them down to have a meal and rest.
Yan Yunge waved his hand and everyone quit.
She stood alone in front of the mourning hall, with a big "leave" in front of her!
The mood that should have been quite calm could no longer be restrained at this moment and tears flowed.
She walked forward, lit the incense and candle, and greeted her!
kowtow!
But I can't afford it for a long time.
She had a lot to say to her mother, and always thought that there was still a lot of time. Who would have thought that in a blink of an eye, the heavens and man would be separated forever.
Tears wet the mat and stained the face.
My eyes were stained with tears, so blurred that I couldn't see the patterns in front of me.
My heart was very cold, as if another ball of fire was burning.
She feels uncomfortable!
Extremely uncomfortable.
There was a noise outside, interrupting her.
She didn't look back and scolded directly: "I have said that no one is allowed to disturb me, and I will take my words as a warning?"
"It's me!"
"Father!"
Yan Yunge turned around, tears still hanging on his face.
Yan Shouzhan looked listless, had a dark and thin cheeks, and looked old and had little time.
Yan Yunge was very scared, "Are you okay, father?"
Yan Shouzhan waved his hand and sat down directly on the mat, "There are many people during the day, so I don't want to be seen as a monkey. So I came here at night. I didn't expect you to be here too."
Yan Yunge said, "I also think there are too many people during the day and are full of people. When I come, I don't know how much trouble it will be. It's better to come over at night and talk to my mother privately."
"Hey...your mother...ah...ah..."
Yan Shouzhan sighed one after another.
"I watched her leave with my own eyes. I was talking and laughing the previous second, discussing whether my granddaughter-in-law's child was a boy or a girl. How could I think that the next second, I will be gone. My husband's mood is like falling into an abyss, feeling uncomfortable!"
"I don't know that my father and mother have such a deep relationship."
"Not what you thought."
Yan Shouzhan turned his back and secretly wiped the corners of his eyes.
He whispered: "It's true that you are with me when you are old. It's not about the relationship between husband and wife. She still dislikes me before she dies, and I also dislikes me.
The problems that existed when they were young have not been solved until now. Noisy, quarrels and entanglements are lifelong grievances.
But this does not prevent us from being disgusted with each other when we are old and accompany each other.
You can't understand the feeling of being around you by your side. It seems that it's half of your energy.
She is familiar with everything about me, good and bad. In front of her, I don’t need to hide anything, and say whatever I want and do whatever I want.
Don’t think about whether the words sound good or not, whether the things you do are popular. Complete self!
Your mother is the same, she is willful and joking in front of me, and is a typical lady from a wealthy family, spoiled.
This side, you as children will never see it. The true companionship and familiar feeling are what we need.
However, your mother was cruel and left me alone. From now on, I have no one to quarrel. This day, there is no hope for this moment!"
He lowered his head, listless, and felt very uncomfortable.
"I can't sleep all night. Once I close my eyes, I will remember your mother's appearance before she dies. Alas, she is so beautiful that she looks good when she smiles. Unfortunately, she left early. I feel empty and have nowhere to put her."
"Does my father want to go out and relax? We are all worried about you."
Yan Yunge was very afraid that after his mother left, his father continued to have an accident.
Even if I am a scumbag father, even if I have despised him for the rest of my life, now the only concept of being my father is left.
All the resentment is gone.
I just hope that he can live a long life and live well.
Yan Shouzhan shook his head, "It doesn't matter, I can hold on. I'm really uncomfortable these days, but I just want to send your mother to the Imperial Mausoleum of Xiao. She has been thinking about all her life, and finally you have fulfilled her wish for her. Her life is not in vain."
"Without a mother, there would be no today. It was so difficult to be in Pingyang County back then. If my mother hadn't endorsed me and silently supported me, Pingyang County would have been taken back by the court."
Back then, if it weren't for the Xiao family, Pingyang County would not have become the fief of the Xiao family.
So……
Yan Yunge would not become the heir to the Princess's Mansion, and he would not be qualified to operate Pingyang County with justification.
Taking Pingyang County as its foundation, we will eventually win the world.
Xiao seems to have done nothing, but her identity, her identity as the daughter of "Crown Prince Zhang Yi", and the noble daughter of the royal family are enough to shelter her from the wind and rain and resist the storm outside in the early stages of Yan Yunge's development.
otherwise……
Why does Yan Yunge manage a county territory as a woman?
Are those big men in the court really easy to talk to?
In the early stage, all the people rely on Xiao’s identity to block the front, so that the big men in the court can be patient for the time being.
Everything is legitimate. The title of Xiao was changed from Princess Zhuyang to Princess Pingyang, which is legitimate.
Yan Shouzhan in turn comforted her, "Don't be too sad either. Your mother left peacefully, and she had no regrets. You have always been her pride, and she has been since childhood.
You are her youngest child, she loves you the most, and you are also the most successful person. People have to face birth, old age, sickness and death, so you have to be more open-minded."
"I will take care of my body. What I worry most about now is your body, my father."
"I'm fine, I'm very good!"
Yan Shouzhan walked forward and gently stroked the coffin.
"Oh, I just feel lonely, and there is no one who talks and quarrels."
"Does my father want to go back to Youzhou?"
Yan Yunge asked suddenly.
Yan Shouzhan was stunned for a moment, and was surprised that he actually shook his head.
"I don't want to go back to Youzhou. What are you going back to do? Is it annoying? I would rather be disliked by your mother than by your children."
