Chapter 2262
The funeral of the Lingyun royal family is divided into three stages: burial, burial, and burial.

After all, Mrs. Gongsun was the princess of the former dynasty. When the first emperor was alive, she was brought up by the queen mother's side. She is different from other princesses in that she has a particularly noble status.

But no matter how royal the princess is, she also married into the Gongsun family, and entered the ancestral grave of the Gongsun family.

Because of the Huguo Temple scandal, Lord Gongsun Hou only wanted to expose the matter as soon as possible and finish her funeral as soon as possible. The original burial, funeral, and funeral ceremonies were shortened from one month to seven days.

After six days of stopping the coffin, the seventh day is the day of funeral.

Without Mrs. Gongsun's restraint, Gongsun Zhao felt that his life was free and carefree. The only fly in the ointment was that his knees became sore.

Li Chengxi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, married Gongsun Houye's younger sister, and the two families are related by marriage.

No matter how serious the scandal in Gongsun's family is, Mrs. Hou's reputation is still there, and she has to go through the funeral.

When Li Sheng, the fifth young master of the Li family, was born, it happened to be the time when Li Chengxi was promoted to the Minister of Rites, so the Li family thought that this son had brought good luck to Li Chengxi, and named him Li Sheng, implying that he would be promoted step by step.

The Li family placed high hopes on Li Sheng, and Mrs. Li was by her side and loved him very much.

Li Sheng was so pampered that he didn't know how to measure, and he did things like stealing chickens and running dogs smoothly, but he was born in front of his elders and still looked obedient.

He and Gongsun Zhao are kindred spirits, but the Li family has a very strict family education, and they have to act cute in front of the old lady, so it is impossible to get into the mansion. If they find an opportunity on weekdays, they will secretly go to the brothel with Gongsun Zhao to drink flower wine.

Gongsun Zhao has been kneeling in the mourning hall for the past few days, already like an eggplant beaten by frost.

Seeing that Li Sheng followed Mr. Li to pay tribute to the funeral, and saluted in a proper manner, he winked at Li Sheng.

Seeing Gongsun Zhao making an excuse to go to the toilet, Li Sheng hurriedly followed into the backyard.

"Cousin, have something to tell me?"

"Kneeling in the mourning hall for the past few days, my legs are so sore. Thanks to the friendship between me and you, visiting the brothels and drinking flowers and wine, it is really disrespectful for you to come to see me now."

When this scandal happened to Gongsun's family, Li Chengxi avoided it, fearing that he would be spoiled.

If Li Sheng wants to come to Gongsun's house, he will be controlled by the old lady of the Li family.

But after all, they are in-laws. There is an empress in the palace of Gongsun's family. With such a flair, how can it be so easy for Gongsun's family to fall?
Because Li Sheng fell in love with Gongsun Zhao, thinking of this, Li Chengxi brought Li Sheng here for a cutscene.

Li Sheng is used to being flattering and obedient, so he naturally wouldn't reveal the Li family's plan. He clenched his fist against his mouth and coughed a few times.

"Brother Sister has been ill for a long time and was bedridden. He is better today, and he is busy begging Dad to bring me to the Hou Mansion to meet my cousin."

"You still have a conscience, and it's not in vain that I have something good to think about you."

Gongsun Zhao lowered his voice: "Brother Sheng, didn't you always say that Lian'er, who is in charge of my mother, is like a ripe peach? It's a pity that I can't pick it."

Lian'er was born with a good appearance, she was the child of Mrs. Gongsun's nanny, and she was very much loved by Mrs. Gongsun.

Even though she is a girl, she is no worse than the young ladies, because she follows Mrs. Gongsun's side, and she has a refreshing charm in her actions, which is different from those delicate young ladies.

Gongsun Zhao and Li Sheng have been thinking about Miss Hanxiao, the oiran of Zuiyuelou, for not a day or two. Because of the great background of Zuiyuelou, let's listen to Miss Hanxiao playing the piano and asking for a thousand taels of silver when they are alone for a stick of incense.

And this Lian'er looks a lot like Miss Hanxiao.
