Chapter 85
When Feng Rui'er appeared in Fengqi Palace, Feng Qianqian had already been placed on the altar. According to the legacy of the ancestors, after the death of the Feng family blood, they should not be buried, but could only be burned with fire to comfort the ancestors.

Because Feng Qianqian was poisoned by Gu poison, she was afraid that after her death, the Gu worms would crawl out of her body and look for a new host, so everyone would stay away and could not help approaching, so they could only incinerate her hastily. The incineration will only be carried out after stopping in the palace for everyone to visit.

Feng Rui'er looked at the map in the hall, and knew the specific location of the altar, trot all the way to the altar, climbed the stone steps, only to see the raging fire burning Feng Qianqian's body, the sky was full of flames, and Feng Qianqian could no longer be seen clearly. Qianqian's body.

Feng Rui'er wanted to go forward, but was stopped by the guards, who couldn't let her approach, Le Dao saw this, and stopped him, "Stay back, stop messing around."

Feng Rui'er stopped, Le Dao walked to her, "Didn't I tell you to stay in Fengluan Hall? What are you doing here?"

"Master, I want to see grandma for the last time." Feng Rui'er said softly. Last night, Feng Qianqian told her that if she couldn't survive her succession ceremony, she would not be able to see each other. It was unlucky, so Feng Qianqian just passed away. Le Dao then sent someone to guard outside Fengluan Hall, preventing Feng Rui'er from coming.

"You girl, you have no rules or etiquette, and you never play cards according to common sense." Although he has known her for a short time, Le Dao is more accurate about her temperament, and blocking her has no effect.

Standing under the altar, Shangguanxuan and Shangguanze looked up and saw Feng Ruier on the altar with a serious expression. They were not surprised by Feng Ruier's appearance.

In the second half of the night, after Feng Qianqian was reduced to ashes, Le Dao ordered people to put Feng Qianqian's ashes into a beautiful jade box, and put the jade box on the steps below the statue of the phoenix on the altar.

All the ministers also climbed up the stone steps with Phoenix flowers in their hands, and came to the altar.

With a wave of Le Dao's hand, all the candlesticks under the Phoenix statue were lit, and the whole statue was solemn and inviolable.

"True God of Phoenix, bless me in Fengguo." Le Dao crossed his hands and bowed his head to the statue of Phoenix God.

"True God of Phoenix, bless me in Fengguo."

"True God of Phoenix, bless me in Fengguo." The voice resounded wave after wave, reaching beyond the palace, resounding through the sky.

After all the voices were silent, Le Dao looked at the ministers, and said loudly, "The former king has died, and the new king will send you off, worship."

Le Dao crossed his hands, bowed his head and bowed down, and the crowd bowed after the statue.

Feng Rui'er crossed her arms, bowed her head and bowed to the statue of the Phoenix, then turned around and bowed to all the officials, took a phoenix flower from the maid's tray on her body, walked to the statue, and placed it on the highest step.

"May the true God bless my Feng Country, prosperity and prosperity, and bless my grandmother, to reach the Nine Heavens." In the Feng Country, the Nine Heavens is what the people of the Feng Country think of as the God Realm.

Then the elders took the phoenix flowers and walked to the statue one by one, paid homage to the statue, and said auspicious words, followed by the ministers, Feng Rui'er looked at the crowd, although she was sad, she did not cry, Amber told her when she came, For the deceased, no tears can be shed, which will affect her detachment from the mundane world until nine days.

Although Feng Rui'er was sad, she did not dare to shed tears easily. Although she was not a feudal superstitious person, she was afraid that it would really affect the detachment of her relatives, so she did not cry.

Although it was night, the imperial palace was brightly lit tonight, just like daytime. There were countless Kongming lanterns floating in the sky throughout Fengguo, and the lights cast the shadow of the entire imperial palace into the Tianshui River.

It is rumored that the Tianshui River is the water for cleansing the soul, and it is the burial place for the deceased in Feng Kingdom. After the people paid homage, Feng Rui'er carried Feng Qianqian's ashes and went down the steps of the altar step by step.

"The ministers are waiting to send off the late king, and the late king has gone all the way." The officials stood on both sides one after another, giving way to the middle road, and their voices resounded throughout the palace and into the sky.

The courtiers were all dressed in plain clothes, standing with phoenix flowers in their hands. The maids held phoenix petals and opened the way ahead. The petals were flying all the way, and the flames were flying. It was the first time Feng Ruier saw a funeral like Fengguo. Holding the urn, it gave her a sense of sight on the red carpet.

For such a simple funeral, Feng Rui'er couldn't help but sigh with emotion as a nation of Fengzu. She thought that in ancient times, it was a generous burial, but now it seems that this nation is the first to practice cremation.

Under the guidance of Le Dao, Feng Rui'er stepped onto the Tianshui Bridge and walked to the end of the Tianshui Bridge step by step. Under the Tianshui Bridge is the Tianshui River. The Tianshui River is the main river area of ​​the Feng Kingdom. The dead were all turned into ashes and thrown into the river, so it is no exaggeration to say that Tianshui River is the burial place of Feng Kingdom.

Feng Rui'er could feel the sound of the majestic waterfall not far away, and there was a faint trace of water vapor. Feng Rui'er was standing on the Tianshui Bridge with the urn in her arms, and her clothes fluttered like a dream.

It can be seen that the sun jumped out of the Tianshui River, slowly rising, and the light shone on everyone's faces.

Le Dao took the ashes from Feng Rui'er's hands, and raised them above his head, "The auspicious time has come, and I will send the late king off for the last time."

"May my lord have a smooth journey and reach the nine heavens." Everyone knelt on the ground, bowed their heads and worshiped, then got up, threw the phoenix flowers in their hands toward the Tianshui River in an orderly manner, and then left the Tianshui Bridge in an orderly manner.

In the end, only Fengrui'er, Shangguanze, Shangguanxuan, and six elders were left in the entire Tianshui Bridge, but the two banks of the Tianshui River were full of common people, each with a phoenix flower, which drifted away with the current in the hands of all the ministers. After that, the phoenix flowers in the hands of the people were thrown into the Tianshui River one after another.

"May my lord have a smooth journey and reach nine heavens." The voices of the people overshadowed the majesty of the waterfall, and it can be seen that the people's aspirations and strength are so great. I didn't expect the people of Fengguo to be so united. Looking at a blood-red river, it is so spectacular. It cannot be expressed in words.

Le Dao opened the jade box, handed it to Feng Ruier, and motioned for her to scatter the ashes into the Tianshui River. Feng Ruier looked at the phoenix flowers all over the river. The red petals and bouquet were especially red under the sunlight. Gorgeous, like facing a sea of ​​flowers.

Feng Rui'er reached out and grabbed a handful of ashes, blowing them away with the wind, the ashes foamed away with the wind, falling to the Tianshui River like bits and pieces.

"Grandmother, have a good journey. May we meet again in the next life, let Rui'er take care of you, and honor you well." Feng Rui'er took a long time to retract her hand that was raised in mid-air.

Afterwards, Le Dao walked up to Shangguanze, and Shangguanze also grabbed a handful and waved them away, "Queen Mother, I wish you to meet Cheng'er and the others above the nine heavens."

Everyone present took turns to scatter a handful of ashes, and finally Le Dao turned the jade box into powder with his palm and dropped it into the Tianshui River until the phoenix flower disappeared and the sun rose high. They also dispersed.

Feng Rui'er couldn't help admiring this country, this nation, such a simple funeral.
