County Lord Changning

Chapter 295 Gratitude
Spring is the season for all things to grow. In just a few days, the forest on the mountain has been covered with new clothes. The new green clothes make the mountain forest full of vitality. When they reached the foot of the mountain, Qin Changning and others came down for a walk. It wasn't as desolate as he saw, and everyone's expressions were no longer as heavy.

Qin Changning couldn't persuade Qin Miao, and could only let Qin Miao follow, but told Ling Xiao and the others to prepare a bamboo chair, and Qin Miao would carry her up when she was tired, so she must not be allowed to sweat, Qin Miao was moved. Yu said, "Sister, the weather is fine today, I won't sweat, don't worry."

A group of people went up the mountain, a group of guards opened the way in front, and a few Taoist priests walked in the front, followed by the eldest princess and the king of Jin, behind them were Qin Bo and the housekeeper who supported Qin Bo, followed by Brother Qin Haoqian, Qin Changning and Qin Miao were slightly behind, and behind them were the remaining guards and the servants who were carrying the new coffin. There were about two hundred people in the group, and it felt a bit majestic.

When they arrived at the cemetery where the Cao family was buried, the Taoist priests recited scriptures, and the Qin family, headed by King Jin and the eldest princess, knelt in front of the tomb, waiting for the Taoist priests to finish chanting.

After doing all the rituals, it was the auspicious time that the Taoist said, so I looked up at the sky and shouted, "Hold an umbrella!"

One of his disciples took a piece of bright yellow cloth and pulled it back to cover the whole tomb, preventing the sunlight from entering.

The grave diggers stepped forward with tools and began to dig the grave.

Jin Wang and others stood up and stood aside.

Since Mrs. Dai's burial of Mrs. Cao was hasty, it was just an ordinary wooden coffin and it was not buried deep, and it was not sealed. The workers soon dug up the wooden coffin, but the wooden coffin was rotten. I can only give up the tools to dig, and start digging the soil with my hands...

...

Half an hour later, King Jin saw that there were only dead bones and a few incomplete pieces of wood left, his eyes turned red, he knelt down with a plop, and called mother in a mournful voice.

The eldest princess also knelt down and reached out to support King Jin, and softly comforted, "My lord...don't be too sad, it's not your fault."

Qin Changning and the others also had serious expressions on their faces. They knelt down in front of the dead bones of the Cao family who had been invited out, and Qin Bo also knelt down, showing guilt.

Jin Wang pulled away the hand of the eldest princess, knelt down and moved step by step in front of Cao's dead bones, kowtowed three times, and personally picked up the dead bones and put them in the newly prepared nanmu coffin. The already messy dead bones were arranged, and the chanting began.

"Seal the coffin!" With a shout from the Taoist priest, someone came over to cover the coffin with a lid, and King Jin couldn't help but burst into tears, "Mother, my child is not filial. I have never thought that you will be buried in such a place for so many years." , but still..." Not wanting to mention Dai's family again, he paused, and then said, "Mother, if you become the mother of your child in the next life, I will definitely honor you well."

The eldest princess supported King Jin to stand up, and persuaded in a low voice, "My lord, my mother-in-law definitely doesn't want to see you so sad."

After a series of ceremonies, Jin Wang held the spiritual tablet, Qin Haoxuan held an umbrella, Qin Changning and others put on filial piety clothes and went down the mountain to bury the Cao family in the ancestral grave.

Qin Bo asked to hold the coffin himself, King Jin agreed, and Qin Bo also wore filial piety clothes and held the coffin with the workers.

It was already afternoon when Cao's grave was moved into the ancestral grave, and Cao's spiritual seat was included in the ancestral hall.

As soon as he returned to the other courtyard, the imperial decree from the capital arrived.

Everyone knelt in the courtyard, and the eunuch who came was Li Fugui's apprentice Laixi. When Laixi saw the eldest princess and others coming back, she hurriedly greeted them with a smile, "My lord, the eldest princess, and your highnesses, come to congratulate me!" .”

The eldest princess frowned slightly, said today is a happy day?Could it be... "Laixi, are you here?"

"The servant is ordered by the emperor to announce the decree." Looking at the crowd with a smile, "My lord, accept the decree." Looking at the little eunuch who stretched out his hand, the little eunuch held the imperial decree, and Laixi took it to make the decree.

Everyone knelt down, and Laixi announced the decree in a sharp voice: "Qin Cao, the biological mother of the foreign surnamed prince Qin Jin, was virtuous and virtuous, managed the family well, taught the children well, and showed virtue. She is specially posthumously named a first-class madam. I respect you."

The eldest princess smiled, and Qin Changning also sighed, feeling infinitely melancholy, and looked up at King Jin, which might be able to soothe his guilty heart a little.

A little eunuch came over, holding the imperial document in his hand, Laixi took it, looked at King Jin and said, "My lord, take the document."

Jin Wang and others saluted, "Master, thank you Lord Long En!" Standing up, he took the imperial order document that Xi handed over, and turned around to put the imperial order document under Cao's spiritual seat in the ancestral hall.

The eldest princess did not stop King Jin, and asked Zisu to entertain the father-in-laws who came from the capital.

Qin Bo stood there looking at King Jin who turned to leave, thinking of his mother who lost the chance to be appointed because of a quarrel, and after a long time of arguing, she went around saying that King Jin was not filial to prevent the emperor from granting her the title. Commandment, now that the document of commandment has finally been finalized, it can be regarded as... return it to its original owner.

Now everything should return to his original position.

Qin Bo saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he turned around and was about to leave, when the eldest princess suddenly called to him, "Master Qin."

Qin Bo looked back at the eldest princess in surprise, and asked in fear, "Why is the princess calling you a villain?"

The eldest princess frowned, turned around indifferently, and said, "Master Qin, come with me." She glanced at Zicen, "Zicen, go and get the things."

The Qin Changning brothers and sisters looked at each other, doubts were seen in their eyes, and everyone followed them up.

In the flower hall, Zisu came up holding something wrapped in a black cloth, put it on the high table and opened the black cloth, revealing a white porcelain vase. The eldest princess looked at the whole body of snow-white porcelain vase, facing Qin Bo who was surprised and indifferent. Said, "This is Dai's ashes."

She originally wanted the Dai family, who had done so many evils until the end and never repented, to be eaten by wild dogs or wolf eagles in the mass graves, but in the end she couldn't be so cruel, even if it was...to accumulate virtue for the people she cared about , she asked Zi Cen to find someone to incinerate Qin's lost body, and then put it in a porcelain bottle and brought it back to Qin Bo.

It can be regarded as letting her fall back to her roots.

"Princess?" Qin Bo looked at the eldest princess in shock, his eyes turned red, "Didn't you say that my... mother is in the mass grave?"

The Eldest Princess frowned, her face instantly turned cold, "Do you think that after I know what your family has done to us, I will hold your mother's ashes in front of you with good intentions?"

Qin Bo's face was awkward, and he knelt down in gratitude, "Thank you, princess, for your kindness and righteousness!"

Qin Changning was also very surprised. She was on the mountain for a month and didn't know what happened down the mountain. She only heard that Dai Shi died and was thrown into a mass grave. She didn't expect...

Qin Changning looked at the eldest princess, and the corner of his mouth slightly twitched. The concubine mother is really a kind-hearted person.
