There are only three ways to deal with the seven pieces of paper. One is to transport the body secretly and go behind the villa into the mountain for burial. The other is to spend some money to buy a road for the court to move the body out of the villa to the place designated by the court. The last one is Ye Yuqing.

The method written down really only has two words - cremation.

The widows of several clan elders and the wives of the village owners, and the five old women were confused as they looked at the two words on the paper. All their eyes turned to Ye Yuqing, and their faces were full of deep meaning and they began to discuss with everyone.

"Xuan Ye, you have written the most, so I will start with yours and discuss it with everyone to see if it is feasible. There are three other people who have the same idea as you, but none of them are as detailed as your deployment, so I want to demonstrate the feasibility of this method.

." The owner's wife said, looking at the paper full of words.

"Xuan Ye, you suggest that the body be sent to the back mountain for burial, but the back mountain is dozens of miles away from the villa, and there are steep sheep farm roads that cannot be accessed by horse-drawn carriages. How can we women transport the body there? And what if

How do you deal with the imperial soldiers blocking the road?" The widow of a clan elder asked two questions. In her mind, she had already rejected this method. If it works, she would still think about it.

"Old woman, it's a big deal for a person to die and he must be buried in peace. Official roads are not allowed to leave, and mass graves are not allowed to be thrown away. Xuan'er can only think of this good idea. I think the soldiers in the imperial court also have relatives, tell them

It should be reasonable." Ye Xuan said without much confidence.

"Xuan Ye, if you are the owner of the village, you must be the one who escorts the corpse. How do you negotiate with the soldiers of the court? If the negotiations are fruitless, do you still have to take the body back to the villa?"

Michelle Ye......

"I think this method is not feasible. Even if it can be blocked by the imperial soldiers, how long will it take to transport more than a thousand corpses? The back mountain is rocky and has little soil, and the mountains and fields are covered with bushes. Even a big tree can hardly

No, it cannot cover the sky or the sun, so it is not a geomantic treasure. Moreover, they are all souls who died in vain. Our villa is the first place to be visited by resentment."

"Old woman, there is nothing Xuan can do about this. I think they are all relatives of the villa, so they shouldn't come to scare us, right?"

"Xuan Ye, I think you shouldn't do this, and you shouldn't do that. It's not the right decision to handle things at all. Your method is not feasible, but your writing is very good, and you can be regarded as a talented woman in our villa." The owner's wife denied it in one sentence.

Also affirmed Xuan Ye.

"The second method was written by Ye Zhen'er. She planned to use money from each household or yard to buy a road with the court, so that the court soldiers would open their eyes and let our corpse truck pass."

"This method will never work. There are already enough exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes from the court. The old village owner has to fight hard to resist some of them every year. Just like that, our people's lives are already in dire straits. Now for the sake of our relatives who were killed at will by them, we still have to pay

If you give us money, then the taxes sent to us will be even greater. At that time, if you don't take money, you will beheaded. Only a fool would do such a thing."

"Yes, we have more than a thousand corpses here. The imperial soldiers change their posts every hour. How much money do we need to silence their mouths?"

"That's the truth, and mass graves are not allowed to be thrown away. To bury them further away, the carriage in the villa will have to make many trips. Corpses are spreading all the way. Only the heads of the imperial soldiers are enough

Compared to being executed after being discovered and chopped up by the superiors, it means you have money and no chance to enjoy it.”

"Mrs. Zhuangzhu, there is no need to consider this method. Is there any other way?" Before Ye Zhen'er could say anything else, everyone unanimously rejected her.

"There is another way. It was thought up by Ye Yuqing, the son of the Sixth Academy. It only has two words - cremation."

"Old lady, we don't know much about cremation. Could you please ask Miss Yuqing to explain it carefully?" The old man looked at Yuqing with great interest and said.

"How is that possible, Miss Yuqing, you are too casual. This is disrespectful to the elder's widow and the village owner's wife." The seventh aunt jumped out to accuse again.

"Seventh Aunt, two words are enough to explain my method. No matter how much I write, we still have many problems. Why waste my ink and the time of several old women? As the name suggests, cremation

, that is, burning the corpse. This way, you don’t have to travel long distances to the back mountains, and you don’t have to spend money to bribe the court soldiers. You can also eliminate the corpse poison from the root. Cremation is the only way to kill three birds with one stone, and the soul of the deceased does not leave the life.

They can still look at us in the sky and bless their relatives." Ye Yuqing talked eloquently.

"My sister is right. In times of crisis, relatives can still give us dreams and guidance for their children." Ye Jing hugged Ye Wen and supported her sister. The several old women looked at each other and nodded secretly.

"Miss Yuqing, you are planning to burn the corpse on the spot without leaving the village, but corpse poison may not necessarily burn it to death. There is still a hidden danger of plague. Have you ever thought about this? In addition, the deceased cannot be laid to rest in the grave and left behind.

My relatives will regret it for the rest of their lives." The old man asked to the point.

"Grandpa Langzhong, Yu Qing has thought very carefully about this issue. After the body is burned, relatives can bury the ashes left behind. Of course, these corpses are stacked together now. If the relatives of each deceased want the ashes that belong to their own relatives,

, then go to the pile of corpses to search for them, and then find a place to burn them. Put the ashes in a jar and bury them wherever you like. The problem of corpse poison is also easy to solve. The smoke from burning corpses will soon be blown away by strong winds.

Besides, we don’t have to stand with the source of the cremation fire. The impact of corpse poison can be ignored. There is also precedent that if the deceased’s bones are not there, building a tomb can also express the grief for the loved ones. Dealing with the deceased

The methods are not static, they all reflect the mentality of the living towards the deceased. Even if they are buried in peace, they will still return to dust after many years." Ye Yuqing's words made everyone fall silent, because

This is really a good idea.

"Of course, the south wind is blowing now and spring is coming. At that time, all things will revive and corpse poison will be rampant, so we don't have much time left. Yuqing's suggestion is to start the cremation as soon as possible, and then carry out the disinfecting work, because the corpses The disaster is not just our villa, we must act early to avoid this plague."

"Miss Yuqing is smart enough and has even thought out the next steps. The people the old woman wants to die are all people from Ye's Villa, and if you think about it, they are all relatives. They are not elders but also brothers, uncles and nephews. More than half of the corpses have already rotted.

. Randomly picking up and moving the corpses will be incomplete, and it is disrespectful to the deceased. People who search for them will also be poisoned. It is better to pick up the intact corpses and move them back to their own yard if they are willing to take them back, and the rest will be in the villa.

Let's burn them together in the open space at the door." The widow of a clan's hometown said helplessly.

"My wife also agrees with this proposal, which can also save time." The owner's wife agreed.

"Although I am not a clan leader of the villa, I have never been involved in the official business of the villa. I will just say a few words to you. Miss Yuqing's suggestion is a good idea. Since ancient times, there has been a saying of burning corpses and burying ashes.

.This is an expedient measure to deal with the deceased, and it is also a way to prevent the deceased from traveling long distances and returning to their hometown with restless souls. This time the imperial power changed and the palace was in chaos, with rivers of blood and mountains of corpses. In special times, we use special methods.

Counting the first group of people who went to the palace to repair the main hall, they have been dead for more than 20 days, and their bodies have already rotted and attracted flies. Even wild dogs barked outside the gate of the palace all day long. This is what we heard and saw

, what the mortal body cannot hear or see is the unjust cries of thousands of dead souls. What crime did they have? They actually became victims of the imperial power. Only those of us who are alive today can let their souls rest in peace a day earlier.

The most important thing to do." The old man said in a sad mood. Among the corpses were his children, disciples and grandchildren.

The entire discussion hall was silent. They really couldn't think of a reason to refute Ye Yuqing's method, and no one could think of a better method than this.

"Miss Yuqing, if everyone is silent, it means they all agree with your method. Why don't you explain the specific method in detail? How can we old, weak, women and children dispose of the pile of corpses at the gate of the villa to the best of our ability?

?”

"Madam, owner of the village, since my sister has come up with a method of cremation, she has a comprehensive and detailed method. But you have forgotten your previous proposal. Whoever comes up with a way to deal with the pile of corpses will be the next owner of the village. The new emperor has ascended the throne.

The grand ceremony is coming in a few days, and the court doesn’t know what will be distributed before the grand ceremony. Whether it will be an apportionment of money or labor, or there may be things we can’t think of. These all need to be faced by a village owner who is in charge. Cousin Yuqing is in our villa

I grew up here and was raised by my parents. She is now our biological sister and the head of our Sixth Courtyard. Mrs. Villa owner, you should echo your words and appoint my sister as the next Qi Family Villa.

The new owner of the village." Ye Jing hugged Ye Wen and said loudly.

"If you say she is a biological sister, she is a biological sister. There is no one in the villa. If you ask a visiting lady to be the gang leader, our Seventh Courtyard will not accept it." Aunt Seventh jumped out to object again.

"For those of the seventh courtyard, the head of your courtyard should be your mother-in-law. Our Qi Family Villa has ten courtyards for direct descendants, sixteen courtyards for concubines, and many courtyards for side branches of the Qi Family. No one has any objections now.

How can you, a widow who is not even the head of the family, have the right to say whether you agree or disagree?" the widow of an elder said angrily.

"Yes, don't waste everyone's time. Master Yuqing, it's almost noon and half the day has passed. We can afford to wait, but those corpses at the gate of the villa can't wait." Many women in the crowd shouted

stand up.

"What Ye Jing's nephew said just now is right. Ye Xuan, you are good at writing and writing well, so you can help us write the appointment documents. Ye Yuqing is the new owner of Qi's Villa." The owner's wife made the final decision.

"Yexuan, don't rush to write now. The owner of this village has some suggestions for everyone to discuss. The replacement of the owner of the village has always been a matter of the clan. This time, something special has been done. Although it is a matter of interests, it also deviates from the clan's interests.

Rules. The owner of this village is only a sixteen-year-old girl. She needs everyone’s help to support such a large villa by herself. I want to select a few people from the sisters who just ran for the owner of the village to work with Yuqing to manage the villa.

Political affairs. Another suggestion is that after all, the village owner’s wife and the family members of the clan elders have been exposed to the affairs of the Villa, you seniors can’t just let go and become our special consultants. In addition, the owner of the village thinks that the old doctor is a grandfather.

He is also a wise man to help. After all, it is convenient to deal with the court and need a man to back him up. We should form a leadership team this time, discuss and solve problems together, and use collective wisdom to safeguard the interests of our villa."

"Miss Yuqing, you really think so."

"Mrs. Zhuangzhu, these are Yu Qing's words from the bottom of her heart."
